How should we reply to Sun Yuanqi¡¯s statement? Yuan Keding is also worried now.
When Yuan Shikai was active and active, Yuan Keding could be said to be so arrogant that there was no one left behind. In his view, Sun Yuanqi was a "village man in the mountains" (Zhang He scolded Zhuge Liang in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms") and a "little boy selling shoes" (Cao Cao scolded Liu Bei), while Tang Shouqian was "a bright-headed man and a gray-bearded old thief" (Zhuge Liang's scolding). scold Wang Lang), the rest of Jiang Zhiqing, Zhao Jingxing and others are just "inserting labels to sell their heads" (Guan Yu commented on Yan Liang)! At that time, he wished he could take over the power in his father's place, then sweep across the world, annex nine states, go through hundreds of battles, and dominate all nations!
Now, as he wished, Yuan Shikai was lying quietly on the bed motionless. The generals and counselors under his former command were all obedient to him, and he could issue orders as he pleased. At this moment, it seemed that the world was under his control. However, when he received a statement similar to an ultimatum from Sun Yuanqi, he was at a loss and didn't know how to deal with it. Only then did he realize that the position of president was not easy to sit on!
He had no choice but to ask Ruan Zhongshu next to him: "That guy Sun Yuanqi actually issued a statement to openly challenge the authority of our presidential palace and asked us to respond within twenty-four hours. It is really arrogant! Mr. Douzhan, how should we respond? Is that good?"
Ruan Zhongshu did not dare to speak nonsense at this time, and replied anxiously: "Young Master, this is a serious matter. I think it is best to ask Secretary-General Yansun, Chief Zhiquan, and Mr. Zhi'an to come back and discuss it in the long term. After all, one person is short of two." Chief of Staff!"
In order to win over Duan Qirui, who held military power, Yuan Keding deliberately let Liang Shiyi take the lead. Now Ruan Zhongshu suggested that he invite Liang Shiyi to come over to discuss matters, so he was quite reluctant. But if only Duan Qirui, Zhao Bingjun and others are invited instead of Liang Shiyi, Liang Zi's relationship will definitely become deeper. He sat on the chair where Yuan Shikai usually sat and thought for a long time, and said hesitantly: "Mr. Yansun is busy with matters in the Congress now. I'm afraid he won't be able to get out for a while, right?"
Ruan Zhongshu seemed to see Yuan Keding's difficulty and said hurriedly: "Young master, how to deal with Sun Baixi's pressing step by step is the most important thing right now. The Congress has been heavily surrounded by our troops, forgive those who are unable to restrain the chicken. There won't be any trouble for the congressman, and things over there can be slowed down. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's a quarter earlier or a quarter later. You can't be separated from me here, so why don't I go and ask Secretary Yansun for you? Come back to discuss matters?"
"That's fine!" Since someone took the initiative to ask for help, Yuan Keding was naturally willing to do so.
Who would have expected that Ruan Zhongshu would come back less than half an hour after he went out, and his face was not very good-looking. Yuan Keding asked hurriedly: "Why did Mr. Douzhan come back so quickly? What happened? Did Liang Yansun speak rudely to you?"
Ruan Zhongshu whispered: "Young Master, Ruan got accurate information from the Congress. It was said that the officers and soldiers surrounding the Congress had received hints from Secretary-General Yansun and had allowed outside parties to deliver meals, drinking water, clothing, etc. to the Congress. The congressmen had to After learning the news from outside, they stopped talking about electing the president, and instead started to denounce the commander-in-chief. So when I arrived at the Congress, I couldn¡¯t attend to meeting Secretary-General Yansun, so I came back quickly to report the situation to you!"
Yuan Keding was shocked: "You mean Liang Yansun¡ª¡ª?"
At this moment, the guard came to report: "Young Master, Mr. Zhao Zhi'an Zhao came to visit and claimed that he had urgent matters to report!"
Yuan Keding seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and said quickly: "Please, please!"
Zhao Bingjun walked in excitedly, but when he saw Ruan Zhongshu sitting there, his expression froze. Ruan Zhongshu understood the situation and quickly stood up and said goodbye: "Young Master, there are some trivial matters to be dealt with at Ruan's family. I'll take my leave for now and please atone for my sins!"
After Ruan Zhongshu left, Yuan Keding hurriedly asked: "Mr. Zhi'an, what is the urgent matter? Did something big happen again?"
Zhao Bingjun came forward, took out a few pages of paper from his arms and handed them to Yuan Keding: "Master, didn't you entrust Zhao to communicate with the Japanese Minister to China, Mr. Yamaza Entaro, to see if a loan agreement can be reached? Zhao After receiving the order, a certain person quickly contacted the Minister of Sanzao. As a result, he very much agreed with the Chinese government's use of force to put down Sun Baixi's rebellion. He generously agreed to borrow money to purchase weapons and promised that both parties would immediately allocate funds as long as they signed the agreement. This is the agreement stripe he drew up. Please tell me. Check it out!"
Since the late Qing Dynasty, whenever we sign a treaty with a foreign country, we have to go back and forth for a long time, ranging from ten days and a half to as many as six months to a year, or even three to five years. For example, the "Chinese Government Rehabilitation Loan Contract" signed by Yuan Shikai on behalf of the Republic of China government and a consortium of banks from Britain, France, Germany, Russia, and Japan took as long as one and a half years. Although Yuan Keding was a bit dandy, after all, he had been in the officialdom and had been observing and studying with Yuan Shikai for so long.In the final analysis, the various terms and conditions of Japan are nothing more than an attempt to engulf China. What is "China-Japan friendship and mutual support"? This is pure fart!
¡°For example, the purpose of jointly establishing an arsenal is to control China¡¯s armaments, monopolize arms production, and extract excess profits. Once a war breaks out between China and Japan, Japan can easily cut off China's supply of weapons and ammunition, and the Japanese army can also replenish armaments at will within China. What does it say that China needs to rectify its armaments and enrich itself with high-quality weapons? What a joke! Although Sun Yuanqi was unsightly in other aspects, he was still unmatched in terms of invention and creation. Whether it is various aircraft or mortars, which one is not a weapon on the battlefield? Especially the Zhonggong 1911 rifle is not comparable to the Murata rifle and 38-type rifle used by the Japanese dwarfs. Is there any need to jointly set up an arsenal with them? Once the Beiyang Army occupies the Peking Iron Works and the Hanyang Iron Works, it is still a matter of debate as to who will cooperate with whom!
Seeing that Yuan Keding did not express his position, Zhao Bingjun urged: "Young master, the situation is urgent now. Sun Baixi is coming menacingly. You must make a decision early!"
Yuan Keding hesitated and said again and again: "Signing the treaty is of great importance. I think it is better to invite Secretary-General Yansun, Director Zhiquan, Mr. Douzhan, and Mr. Xingcheng to come over and discuss it, right?"
Zhao Bingjun took out a few more pieces of paper from his arms: "Young Master, Zhao just has one more important thing to report to you. According to our and Japanese intelligence, Secretary-General Yansun is likely to pass the current Guangdong The director of civil affairs, Tang Shaochuan, has taken refuge with Sun Baixi! These are the messages they exchanged, please read them." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
