    In the academic circles of the Republic of China, there was one person who could not be ignored, and that was Zhang Shizhao.  In his early days, he was enthusiastic about revolution and had a distinguished status. After returning from studying in England, he served as a professor in many universities in the Republic of China.  And he also has deep relationships with celebrities.  Following Zhang Taiyan, Cai Yuanpei and others were the backbone elements who fought against the Qing Dynasty.  The relationship with Mr. Huang Xing and Mr. Sun Da is also good.  After the Republic of China, his main activities were in Yanjing. Although he also served as a university professor, he had already entered the officialdom.  However, he never entered politics in Yanjing from beginning to end. People who are familiar with him have probably noticed that he really doesn't like ordinary official positions. His goal is to be the director of education, or at least the deputy director.  This position is indeed not low, it is a member of the cabinet.  Of course, Professor Zhang looked down upon Cao Kun in every possible way. After the scandal of Cao Kun's vote-bribing scandal broke out, he denounced him in the newspaper.  ¡°But if Cao Kun invited him to take charge of the Ministry of Education, he would really grit his teeth and say ¡®no¡¯.  Zhang Shizhao has too many labels on his body, and it cannot be simply defined as which camp he belongs to. He is a friend of all the forces in the north and the south, whether it is Beiyang or Guangzhou, and he even lends a hand to the red northern camp.  He is an all-around man, even if he wants to come forward, he still works for Cao Kun, whom he despises. I guess the bargaining chip given by President Cao is not low at all.  Of course, Cao Kun is very busy now. He is busy competing with Zhang Zuolin in a battle of wits and courage But in the eyes of outsiders, the result of this battle is really unreliable, and everyone below him feels embarrassed.  Taking advantage of the intermission, Cao Kun suddenly remembered that the South was not peaceful either. What was even weirder was that he remembered that he was the president and he was the biggest in the entire Republic of China.  But what made him angry was that local officials in the Republic of China didn't really listen to him.  Especially Wang Xueqian, it¡¯s okay if he doesn¡¯t help, he will only cause trouble. He has to deal with this new Southeast King who doesn¡¯t know the importance.  ?According to his theory, Zhang Zuolin won't be able to stay alive for long. He has already mastered the "big killer weapon" to deal with Zhang Zuolin. As long as he has one trump card in his hand, Zhang Zuolin will be finished.  But Cao Kun really didn't have time to deal with things south of the Yangtze River, but Wang Xueqian developed so fast that he almost caught up with Zhang Zuolin in the blink of an eye. How could he continue like this?  In Da Congxin¡¯s eyes, Cao Kun looked down on Zhang Zuolin, he was just a bandit!  The eight generations of his Lao Cao family have been good people and good people.  Can you still let this old boy challenge you?  This evil trend needs to be killed, and Zhang Zuolin must understand that if you don't accept his old plaster, it won't work!  But Cao Kun saw Wang Xueqian differently, a doctor who studied abroad.  This guy drank so much foreign ink that even his liver and heart were stained black.  Cao Kun also knows how powerful the master is, and he privately estimates that he is slightly worse than Wang Xueqian.  Of course, he doesn't always feel inferior to Wang Xueqian. He is older than Wang Xueqian This doesn't count!  He has more wives than Wang Xueqian Forget it, at their level, it's as easy to get a woman as it is to hire an old woman, which is really not a problem.  Cao Kun is not shameless enough to point to his age and rely on his old age.  The only thing that gave him confidence was that he felt that he was slightly better than Wang Xueqian in terms of luck.  After serving in the army for so many years, he has never been injured, let alone injured, or even had a sprained foot or a corn. Among the Beiyang governors, he is definitely a first-class blessed general.  To put it bluntly, in one sentence, he has great blessings.  But luck is too mysterious, and it¡¯s not obvious even on ordinary days, so you can¡¯t see it at all.  Only when you get the key can you become a blockbuster, right?  But he kept waiting and didn¡¯t come, which made Cao Kun feel as uncomfortable as a cat¡¯s claws scratching his heart!  "Perhaps he wanted to cause some trouble for Wang Xueqian. Cao Kun asked his men to find someone to do it, with the purpose of stumbling on Wang Xueqian.  This matter fell on Zhang Shizhao.  In the eyes of the big shots, even though the Director of Education is a member of the cabinet, few big shots would care about such a position. Just like the official position of the Chief of Justice, it is basically just a favor.  Zhang Shizhao got the confidence, and then he worked hard to build relationships.  But the result was very unsatisfactory. He, who is usually very generous, really encountered soft nails a few times.  Not to mention that avant-gardists like Professor Zhou and Hu Shi ignored him, and even other prominent people in the academic field did not express a basic position.  The result was that Zhang Shizhao was so impatient that he didn't even pull in a few people.  But I don¡¯t know what happened, but Wu Peifu, who returned to Beijing, found out about this.  What Gu Weijun was doing in Shanghai, as the top secret of Cao Kun's government, not many people knew about it, but Wu Peifu happened to know it. When he heard that Zhang Shizhao was contacting students, he felt that something was not good, and he was afraid that something would happen.  After asking Cao Kun, I found out that the root cause lies with Cao Kun.  "President, Gu Weijun has received news from the south that the negotiations have broken down?" Wu Peifu was also not sure what kind of medicine Cao Kun was selling in the gourd.Always be careful.  According to his understanding, Gu Weijun must have been beheaded by a group of great powers headed by the British in the south, otherwise Cao Kun would not tolerate the students making trouble. ? But what about Cao Kun?  Smiling like an old lady, shaking his head with a proud look like Zhuge Liang singing about the empty city strategy, he is the smartest in the world: "No, it's fine!" "But does the president know that the students on the street are going to cause trouble?"  Wu Peifu asked with lack of confidence. He didn't know what trouble Cao Kun was going to make again.  Cao Kun rolled his eyes and looked impatient. Of course, he was not targeting Wu Peifu, but Wang Xueqian. Unfortunately, the other party couldn't see it, which made him very angry: "I asked this little guy to take advantage of my fight with Bandit Zhang.  Opportunities have developed, and if he can't take advantage of them, I really want to let him know what it means for a veteran to act, one can win two!" Marshal Wu's lips were trembling, what does it mean for a veteran to act?  You have been in the army for 40 years and have been promoted to general, but have you ever really fought in a war? ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Or maybe he miraculously won the battle when he arrived.  The life of an official was unparalleled. He never had to worry about fighting. He didn't even go to the headquarters. He could just play mahjong at home with his concubines and receive good news.  He is a blessed general who has no sense of justice. His bosses all like him because he feels safe when he is with him.  Wu Peifu, Marshal Wu was shocked. The negotiations in the south were going smoothly, which means that everything spread in the academic circles is false. There will always be a day when lies are exposed. Regardless of the current commotion, how will it end in the end?  Wu Peifu was no longer calm. He originally came to ask for military pay. Three hundred thousand troops were sent out, which was not a small amount of money. The entire Beiyang government was overwhelmed by this huge military expenditure, and the finance minister was playing around all day long.  Missing.  I never expected that as soon as I arrived in Yanjing, I would see many young people who looked like students gathered on the streets as the car passed by, in twos and threes, probably to form a network.  The problem is that he is not as simple as Cao Kun thought. If he is unhappy, he can just make a small move and it will be over.  Wu Peifu really devoted himself to studying Wang Xueqian and his Zhejiang Army.  The problem is that the results of the research are unanswerable.  "Military comparisons cannot be made in terms of quantity. Elite troops in history have not won by quantity. Thousands of people fought and tens of thousands were beaten, and the ground was full of teeth.  And the Zhejiang Army is probably the absolute elite among the Army of the Republic of China.  ??In terms of battles, why did Li Houji lose so simply back then?  At first, the two divisions under his command pressed against Wen Yingxing and Zhang Zaiyang's second division and garrison brigade, and the main force of the second division was almost defeated.  Of course, Wen Yingxing's garrison brigade did not suffer a loss, but it only stabilized the defense line and stopped the momentum of the Fujian army.  But what did Wang Xueqian do after he led his troops to the battlefield?  " Two artillery regiments and hundreds of artillery fired at the Fujian army's position for two hours, covering the area with firepower. Not to mention Li Houji peed, even Wu Peifu felt his bladder tightening.  The Zhili and Fengjun were fighting inextricably along the Great Wall, but such a big scene had never happened before.  How many shells does this cost?  Later, rumors came out that Wang Xueqian had 30,000 rounds of artillery shells, but less than half of them were not used when he attacked Li Houji. Wang Xueqian was very dissatisfied with Li Houji's performance. How good would it be to surrender after finishing the inventory of artillery shells?  Who dares to play and fight with him when he is such a prodigal?  This was just a few years ago. Now the Zhejiang Army even has an air force. This is not the Beiyang air force. There is no place for even a machine gun on the plane. It is a serious fighter jet that can sink warships.  With this help, Wu Peifu felt that even if he brought out all his elite troops to fight the Zhejiang Army, the chance of winning would be slim. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Not to mention Zhang Zuolin's fight with Wang Xueqian. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If Zhang Zuolin was not really good at combat command, it would have been a complete bandit annexation, in the eyes of Wu Peifu, who had many years of experience in commanding large armies, it would not have been sufficient.  Otherwise, it is estimated that the direct army will not be able to cope with Fengjun.  Wu Peifu finally cheered up and suggested: "President, I think that the situation in the south cannot be dealt with in the same way as the situation in the north." "Oh, tell me." Cao Kun likes to listen to others tell him, because he is  If you are a big teapot, you will not be able to pour it out even if there is something in your stomach.  Wu Peifu finally gave up and said: "It is necessary to suppress Zhang Zuolin and to appease Wang Xueqian. The two cannot be the same. Moreover, the Zhejiang Army currently has a navy, air force and army, so it is not easy to deal with it." "This is true.  Reasonable." Cao Kun commented firmly: "But I looked at himBig, I feel uncomfortable.  " Forget about Cao Kun, Beiyang didn't even want to see the southern power, but Wang Xueqian's rise was so fast that he almost became a behemoth after taking a nap. But he still had to persuade: "President, don't even think about it.  , today¡¯s student movements are all related to Guangzhou, and Wang Xueqian doesn¡¯t play with these.  Don¡¯t you support the student movement?  If we can't control it then, won't Yanjing City be in chaos?  " Seeing that Cao Kun was a little moved, Wu Peifu said hurriedly: "The negotiations in Shanghai are going smoothly now. Anyone who wants to disgust Wang Xueqian will not succeed. Isn't this building momentum for him?  Besides, if this group of students makes trouble, it will be in Yanjing City. No matter whether there are any benefits or not, their own side will suffer in the end.  Let¡¯s not go too far, let¡¯s just say that when the student movement was at its peak, the house of Cao Rulin, the Chief of Transportation, was burned down. How many years have passed, and this person does not dare to show his face in Yanjing City? Do you think this is true?  " "Alas" Cao Kun was very angry. He was not angry for anything else. He was angry because he did not think of Mao in the first place. "Cao Kun is a person who is very good at listening to suggestions. Of course, he is the one who makes suggestions.  To put it bluntly, Cao Kun must feel that he and the other party are of the same mind, so that the other party may tell the truth. For example, the president who has hung his bust on the city gate building is very embarrassed.  He sighed unmotivatedly and said: "Shuai Yu, if you are not here, there is not even anyone around you who can discuss things.  " Xia Shoutian, Secretary-General of the Presidential Palace, heard this and his nose was almost crooked with anger. This person had reminded Cao Kun more than once and had played with it. He definitely couldn't use this kind of trick against Wang Xueqian. Cao Kun didn't know who he listened to.  He thought that as long as the momentum got bigger and Wang Xueqian was dismissed from his post, everything would be over. But in reality, who among the local governments in the Republic of China would listen to the central government? In the end, Cao Kun could only let himself.  It's embarrassing, but there is no other choice. But President Cao just doesn't listen to Xia Shoutian. He feels that a capable scholar like Xia Shoutian will not agree with him. This is too heartbreaking. But Cao Kun also has his own reasons.  Reason! After Mr. Sun Da was driven away from Guangzhou City by Chen Jiongming, he was like a lost dog and his reputation had fallen to the bottom. Even the Kuomintang looked like it was struggling to survive. But Xia Shoutian suggested supporting Mr. Sun Da and '  The Kuomintang's reasons were very ulterior, probably related to Xia Shoutian's junior brother Yang Du. But what happened in the blink of an eye? After Mr. Sun Da returned to Guangzhou, the first thing he did was to raise the banner of the Northern Expedition, with the goal of killing Cao Kun.  The duplicitous white-faced guy felt angry that he had been fooled. This Mr. Sun Da was nothing. I had good intentions to protect him and it was okay to be ungrateful, but in the blink of an eye he no longer recognized me.  Is he still a human being if he is driven out? Even Xia Shoutian who made the suggestion is resentful. He feels that Xia Shoutian is already in Cao's camp and his heart is with Han. Anyway, Cao Kun firmly believes that this guy is unreliable!  What about Xia Shoutian, Secretary-General of the Presidential Office? He was also full of grievances! He just said casually that without Mr. Sun Da and the Kuomintang causing trouble in the south, it would be difficult for the Zhili Clan to control several provinces along the Yangtze River.  Find them an opponent. Jiangsu's Lu Yongxiang, Anhui's Ni Sichong, Jiangxi's Chen Guangyuan, Hunan's Zhang Jingyao are not oil-saving lamps. Each one has his own little idea. Xia Shoutian's original intention is to get Cao Kun's support in public opinion.  That's it, but I didn't expect that Cao Kun would slap his head and even bring out the presidential pardon. No one could persuade him. Can you blame him? But Cao Kun was really excited at that time. It was the first time since he was born in his mother's womb.  Playing with the presidential pardon is very enjoyable! Now that Cao Kun has changed his mind, the one who will be affected is Xia Shoutian, the secretary-general of the presidential palace. Secretary-General Xia did not call himself. He originally wanted to ask his subordinates to call Zhang Shizhao.  Just make a phone call and the matter would be over. But after thinking about it, I decided to make this call myself. Besides, Zhang Shizhao, with a bubble on his face, walked around all the universities in Yanjing City.  Just wandering around is not enough, he also has to persuade people. Unfortunately, not many people were persuaded by him, and in the end he couldn't even reach half of the set goal. But even so, he was very satisfied.  I am very disgusted with the student movement. Although I am no stranger to it, I have not had much contact with the members of the student movement. Being able to persuade these people will also offer a lot of benefits, such as official positions such as the director of the Ministry of Education, at the very least.  The interests are so exciting!  There are some who are upright and honest, but the fortress is not yet indestructible, so he still managed to win a lot by exchanging benefits.  Feeling complacent, he walked into his big house in Yanjing.  Before entering the second door, the housekeeper hurried over: "Sir, Secretary-General Xia of the Presidential Palace wants you to make a call."  "Uh-huh!" This is the exclamation of old students in Peking Opera, and it basically means the same thing as the colorful-faced wah-yah  Whenever Zhang Shizhao showed up in this manner, he was probably extremely proud of himself, and the housekeeper also said a lot of flattery.  Zhang Shizhao proudly dialed the phone, thinking about how to show off for a while and repay the fruits of his victory. When he was struck by thunder, his ears buzzed, as if a fly had crawled in, and his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.  After a while, I realized that it was Cao Kun who should pay attention. He stopped the student demonstration and asked him to calm down the students' emotions that had been aroused After hanging up the phone, Zhang Shizhao shouted angrily: "Idiot Cao, I  If I believe your nonsense again, I will be Shui Laoguan!" "Good guy, he even brought out the dialect from his hometown, which shows that Lao Zhang is also very angry.  He raised the teapot in his hand and wanted to throw it to the ground, but looking at the signature on the bottom of the pot, he couldn't bear to part with it. This was Yang Pengnian's famous teapot and his beloved one.  If he dropped the teapot, Zhang Shizhao would probably be driven crazy.  He had no choice but to let go of the anger in his heart. He couldn't help but grumble and walk to the backyard. Zhang Shizhao, who was almost out of his mind, turned around and entered the kitchen, looking at a large sea bowl beside the pot.  It felt right to him.  He threw the heavy sea bowl to the ground with all his strength. There was a clang, which frightened the servants in the Zhang family's kitchen.  What happened to Mr. Zhang?  He quietly came to the kitchen to play with the bowl and then left without saying a word. Wouldn't he be crazy?  Within two days, a rumor spread in the circles of Yanjing City University that Zhang Shizhao was crazy and was driven crazy by Cao Kun.  (To be continued.)
