    Upon hearing the results of the first round of voting, the leading middle-aged man suddenly turned pale.  Fortunately, no one received more than three-quarters of the votes cast, so the election was invalid.  Wu Jinglian hurriedly called on the members to start the second round of voting.

    It stands to reason that with the experience from the last time, and there is no need to check the number of people, you can invoice, vote, and count votes, this response should be much faster. However, some people deliberately did not work hard and deliberately delayed the work until 10 noon.  The statistical results of the second round of elections were not released until around 2 o'clock.  Perhaps inspired by the results of the previous election, the second round of voting was obviously concentrated on Yuan Shikai and Sun Yuanqi. Even Li Yuanhong, who was previously considered by the public to be able to compete with Yuan Shikai, only received 50 or 60 votes. Others were even more  There are only a few votes.  Among them, Yuan Shikai received 305 votes, while Sun Yuanqi received 378 votes, which was significantly ahead of Yuan Shikai's votes!

    Seeing the results of the second round of the election, the middle-aged man almost became angry. He took out his pistol and fired several shots at the ceiling: "It seems that you are toasting instead of eating and being fined! Let me tell you, don't be shameless.  ! If the third round of elections still fails to elect the president we want, all of you will die!" After saying that, he turned around and waved his hand, and thousands of thugs waiting outside suddenly swarmed in and surrounded the congressmen.  live.

    After the ballots were distributed, I saw three or four thugs wielding swords and sticks with fierce looks standing next to each member of the assembly in the venue, staring at the members filling in the ballots with glaring eyes.  If the words "Yuan Shikai" are not filled in, the lighter punishment is to tear up the ballot and order it to be filled in again; the worst punishment is to use sticks and sticks.  Hit the congressman hard.  It is conceivable that if Yuan Shikai is not elected in this round of voting, there will be something wrong!

    The task can finally be completed!  The middle-aged man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

    This breath just came out of my throat.  There was a sudden loud "boom" outside, and the ground suddenly trembled violently, and the glass of the parliament building peeled off and shook.  The middle-aged man's heart, which had just dropped, suddenly picked up again.  Before he could ask a question, he saw a man staggering in and shouting: "Brigadier Commander, something bad has happened! Sun Yuanqi sent a plane to bomb the Presidential Palace! What should we do?"

    It turns out that this person is Tang Tianxi, commander of the Fifth Brigade of the Third Division of the Central Army.  It is said that he was Yuan Shikai's male favorite, and the two had a romantic relationship.  But the actual relationship is unknown to outsiders.  However, Yuan Shikai did love him very much. He has been with him since he joined the army, and he has served as captain of the guard and head of the presidential palace security corps.  One thing Yuan Shikai often said is: I am happy with my destiny.  Just like Liu Bei had Zhao Yun.  Therefore, even though he currently holds the position of brigade commander, he spends seven or eight days in the presidential palace in the city.

    Late the night before yesterday, Yuan Shikai finalized a plan to siege the Congress and the headquarters of the New China Party, and ordered Tang Tianxi to lead his troops to assist Liang Shiyi in handling the matter of siege of the Congress.  Because Tang Tianxi was a die-hard member of the Yuan family, Yuan Keding did not implicate him when he executed Liang Shiyi.  Instead, he and Ruan Zhongshu were ordered to be jointly responsible for the affairs of the Congress.  Strive to elect a president as soon as possible.

    Seeing Liang Shiyi¡¯s head fall to the ground, Tang Tianxi couldn¡¯t help but feel a bit sad: both he and Liang Yansun were close confidants of the commander-in-chief, so he thought he could sit back and relax, but he didn¡¯t expect that after the young master came to power, he would first use Liang Yansun¡¯s head to establish his authority.  Although it has not affected him now, who knows that he will not counterattack in the future?  He and the Marshal are "good friends, sharing the same quilt", but they have nothing to do with Young Master Yuan, and he might even complain about his mother.  He took the initiative to deal with his mistress!

    Tang Tianxi felt uneasy and could only go into battle shirtless.  In order to win the favor of Mr. Yuan with his military exploits, thugs intimidated the congressmen late at night.  Unexpectedly, Tang Tianxi felt that the world was spinning and he almost fell to the ground when he heard the news that planes were bombing the presidential palace.  New China Party members were overjoyed when they heard the news: As Secretary-General Yang Xizi said, if it is delayed until noon, there will be a huge turnaround.  At the moment, they ignored the harsh scoldings of the thugs around them and conveyed their joy to each other with their winks.

    It took Tang Tianxi a long time to calm down, and he scolded sternly: "Who instructed you to dare to make monstrous words to confuse the public and disrupt the morale of our army? What crime do you deserve?"

    The soldier stammered and said: "S-Sir, I-I'm not talking nonsense. If you don't believe me¡ª¡ª"

    Without waiting for the soldier to finish speaking, Tang Tianxi pulled out a gun and used it as a shot in the chest: "I don't know how to repent, and I still try to quibble, so I will die unjustly!"

    The soldier fell to the ground, and red blood flowed down the steps.  Tang Tianxi looked around with a pistol in hand and said coldly: "What are you looking at! Why don't you fill out the ballot quickly! If you can't elect the president of our choice later, he will be your fate!"

    Before he finished speaking, several more deafening explosions came from outside, and then the huge explosions rang out, shaking the ears of everyone present.Sound.  After careful analysis, the location of the explosion was vaguely the location of the Presidential Palace.  Tang Tianxi could no longer calm down and quickly walked out of the venue and looked in the direction of the Presidential Palace. He saw more than a dozen planes circling back and forth in the sky, dropping a few aerial bombs from time to time.  As the bomb fell to the ground, black smoke and dust shot straight into the sky, and loud noises continued to be heard.

    "No, I didn't expect Sun Baixi to be so bold and dare to bomb the Presidential Palace! Brigadier Yun, Yunting, what should we do now?"

    After hearing the words, Tang Tianxi discovered that Ruan Zhongshu was standing not far away from him, looking northward. He saw his earth-colored face and his two swollen faces. His whole body shook violently every time a bomb exploded. In addition to fear, his eyes were full of fear.  There was a trace of joy, and he was probably thinking: If he had not been ordered to handle parliamentary affairs, he would have been unable to escape this disaster!

    Tang Tianxi gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Douzhan, I will take some people to the Presidential Palace to see if there is anyone who needs help. Please stay here for a while. I will come back as soon as I go!"

    Ruan Zhongshu didn't know whether he was trembling or nodding: "Okay, okay, then I'll trouble Brother Yunting! I'm here to support you, so you can go without worries!"

    Tang Tianxi couldn't help but frowned: What does "just go ahead with peace of mind" mean?  Why does it sound so awkward?

    Fortunately, now was not the time to be fussy, so he ordered a few teams of elite troops and rushed towards the Presidential Palace.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    It turns out that Sun Yuanqi did, as Yuan Shikai said, cherish the flowers and plants in the capital very much, and would never send planes to bomb them under normal circumstances.  But now he encountered an unusual situation: According to intelligence, there was a burst of messy gunfire in the Congress building in the early morning, and Yuan Keding was preparing to arrest and execute a group of congressmen after completing the presidential election.

    This information immediately made Sun Yuanqi tense up.  You must know that there are not only three to four hundred New China Party members in the parliament building, but also Yang Du, Yang Yongtai, Chen Xun'en and other close confidants.  If something were to happen to them, it would be like losing their right-hand man!  However, the defenders of Jingshi University, which is closest to the capital, also have to face the invading 6th Brigade of the 3rd Division of the Central Army. They are worried about self-protection. How can they have the energy to rescue Yang Du and others dozens of miles away?

    Apart from the garrison of Jingshi University, the one closest to the capital is the 47th Mixed Brigade of the Army, which has been assembled in the Yongjia Fort area at the junction of Zhili and Shanxi. Regardless of the rugged terrain from Zhangjiakou to Huailai, it is difficult to defend and difficult to attack.  , regardless of the Central Army's First Division and the Third Cavalry Brigade in front of them, even if the road is unobstructed, it will take three to five days to travel from Yongjia Fort to the capital, which is four to five hundred miles away.  By the time the 47th Mixed Brigade arrives for rescue, I'm afraid the graves of Yang Du and others will have been buried!

    ¡°Otherwise, the only possible means of rescue is by plane.  However, current aircraft are not as high-tech as a hundred years ago and can carry out targeted bombing and air rescue.  It is estimated that according to the current technical level, a 500 kilogram aerial bomb will definitely destroy both the jade and the stone!  Just when Sun Yuanqi was in trouble, Shanxi Governor Zhao Jingxing, who arrived in Datong yesterday evening, suggested: "Sir, the students think it is best for us to use planes now!"

    "Oh? What's your reason?"

    Zhao Jingxing has obviously matured a lot after not seeing him for a year or two, and he looks even more mature with a thick beard on his lips. Hearing this, he replied respectfully: "Students know that you don't want to use planes to bomb the capital because you are afraid of damaging houses and hurting innocent people, but we  We must also consider that if Yuan Keding was allowed to act recklessly and instigate the Beiyang Army to fight with us with the support of Japan, the number of people killed, injured, and damaged houses would be hundreds of times that of now! If we use planes to eliminate Yuan Keding and others, it will be said that  It is to cut the firewood to stop the boil and cut the grass to remove the roots! This is one of them.

    "Perhaps Sir, you are still worried that there is still some time before your 24-hour deadline for issuing a statement, but we must also consider that Yuan Keding had not signed a traitorous treaty with the Japanese at that time, nor did he intend to kill members of Congress. We  There is a reason for sending planes to bomb now. Furthermore, by the time the planes arrived over the capital, it had been more than 24 hours since the Beiyang Army surrounded the congressmen. Not only did they not relieve the siege, but they intensified their efforts, so we had to impose some punishment. This is the second point.

    "Thirdly, no matter whether there is war or peace in the future, how to deal with the Beiyang Army is the number one problem. If you treat them with peace, you are afraid that they will become more arrogant and unrepeatable; if you treat them with threats, you are afraid that they will harbor resentment and wait for opportunities to cause chaos. It is best to  Take advantage of now to cut off as much as possible to weaken their strength, and leave an indelible mark in their hearts so that they will not dare to act rashly in the future. So sir, you might as well attack the third division that attacked Jingshi University while bombing the Presidential Palace.  The First Division, the First Division and the Third Cavalry Brigade stationed in Zhangjiakou, and the 10th Division stationed in Beiyuan carried out large-scale bombing!"

    Sun Yuanqi suddenly thought that a hundred years later the palaces, palaces and alley courtyards of the Qing Dynasty would be cultural relics, but even the newly built buildings now are all buildings from the early Republic of China.Buildings are like crucian carp crossing the river, why do they need to be protected?  I recall how many city walls, palaces, and former residences were demolished during the founding of the People's Republic of China. Isn't Beijing still Beijing?

    Thinking of this, Sun Yuan nodded: "Okay, let's let the Beiyang Army have a good memory!"

    As planes continued to take off from Taiyuan and Datong airports, the 47th mixed brigade gathered in the Yongjiabao area at the junction of Zhili and Shanxi also moved towards Zhangjiakou.  The war that later generations called the "Constitutional War" officially kicked off. Because the two warring parties were Sun Yuanqi and Yuan Shikai in the third year of the Republic of China (1914), it was also called the "Sun Yuan War" and the "Three Civil War Wars."  (To be continued)
