To many people's expectations, Wu Yijiu's campaign was very clean. Although he took Lin Chong, he did not make any substantial threats. Although he had the Tianjin Bank in his hands, he did not write any checks to bribe the election.

During his campaign for the head of state, he only focused on three points.

First, we must ensure that we must defend the republic, ensure that we will not implement the monarchy, and ensure that we comply with the Constitution.

The second is to promise to launch a war to veterans who rely on military backgrounds to seize more land; to veterans with industrial and commercial backgrounds, they promise to accelerate the development of Japan. At this time, the business community in Tianjin already knew that Japan had many gold, silver and copper mines, so they were all salivating; for veterans with academic backgrounds, they guaranteed increased investment in education and opened more schools.

The third one is to cut the mess! I learned about the Summer Palace Incident late at night on the second day of August. The senate by-election was held on the fourth day of August, allowing Wu Yijiu to obtain a seat in the Senate. On the sixth day of August, the iron was fired while the iron was hot and the election of the head of state was held.

The purpose of holding two consecutive elections in such a short time is to calm people as soon as possible; and the other is to make the potential opposition unable to react.

Therefore, at the closed-door meeting of the Senate House on the sixth of August, Wu Yijiu was the only candidate who came out to run for the acting head of state.

On the podium, after finishing the policy he was about to adopt in a calm voice with a little sadness, Wu Yijiu cleared his throat, looked at the hundreds of veterans in the venue with bright eyes, and began his final speech.

"The elders and grandpas, my country of Great Zhou Republic was founded by my father and I for more than twenty years.

Establishing a country in more than 20 years is already a rare great achievement in history. And our Great Zhou Republic is very different from a family and country for two thousand years. It is a republic that inherited Yao and Shun as a public country.

In the past, the country of Yao and Shun was established with virtue and neglected laws and regulations, so the abdication could not last long. As the public finally became a family, he had two thousand years of autocracy, and the rise and fall of the country. The time of peace and happiness was only hundreds of years, but the time of danger was only one thousand and hundreds of years.

Although the republic of the Great Zhou Dynasty was very strict and the people were happy, they were now facing a critical moment of life and death. The Khitan rebelled in the Dading Prefecture, the Jurchens were aggressive, and the Song Dynasty did not lose their desire to perish. My father suffered another change, and his whereabouts were still unknown.

Therefore, Yijiu had to stand up as a young man and run for the top of the elders to defend the republic. If all the elders think Yijiu is worthy of this position, please vote for Yijiu.

Yijiu here promises that he will do his best to live up to his responsibilities and carry forward the foundation created by his father!

Take the laws of the republic within the world!”

As soon as Wu Yijiu finished his speech, thunderous applause immediately sounded from the audience.

Of course I have to applaud! Could it be that I still want to kowtow?

Wu Yijiu, the young leader, looks very good. Not only is he young and promising, but he also has ideals and ambitions. Unlike the old leader who has been in a state of depression in recent years - the young leader can say that he must "the laws of the republic shall be carried out within the world"!

This is to unify the world and destroy Jin and Song... How much profit does this have to be! How many farms are there!

After applause, of course, it is a vote. It is an unnamed vote!

Wu Yijiu is still very confident in his family - in today's Tianjin, no one dares to be the head of state except him. Because his father Wu Haogu is still "missed" to this day...

The voting result did not disappoint Wu Haogu. Although he did not support him 100%, he was elected as the acting head of the Great Zhou Republic with a high vote.

The head of state Wu Yijiu finally made his debut!

...

"Wu Haogu died! Zhou State is in chaos!"

In the embassy of the Song Dynasty, Qin Hui, whose eyes were red and his voice was hoarse, was extremely excited and said to the envoy Zhang Bangchang with his hands and feet: "Wu Haogu is not dead, how dare Wu Yijiu be the acting head of state? And he is so anxious... It is obvious that he wants to hold his seat firmly before his two brothers return to the army.

Unfortunately, he was still too young and thought too simply. Since ancient times, the emperor has been doing it with strong soldiers and horses. He has not had a soldier for a long time in Wuyi. He can only rely on the votes of the Senate to settle so many generals who are respectful to Zhou State? Dream on!"

This time, even Zhang Bangchang agreed with Qin Hui’s opinion!

Wu Yi can't say that it's wrong to cut the throne with a quick knife, but it's certain that his two brothers are not convinced. No one will be convinced. Why should we give up the great power?

At this moment, an embassy rush in and saluted Zhang Bangchang and Qin Hui.

"The minister and deputy envoy, the Ministry of Rites of Zhou, just now, sent someone to inform us, indicating that the border river will be blocked from the morning. If you want to leave, please leave today."

Zhang Bangchang and Qin Hui looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel joy!

Wu Yijiu ordered the preparation for the war!

He had long since blocked the boundary river, so why are he blocking it now? The news of Wu Haogu's death has long been spread.

There is only one reason for the blockade now, which is to prevent the army loyal to Wu Yiyong and Wu Yixin from crossing the boundary river and entering Tianjin!

Zhang Bangchang said: "The army of Zhou State is greedy for land, and the navy is greedy for money. Wuyi has money for a long time, so it is no problem to buy the navy. He should have wanted to use the navy to block the boundary river to protect the southern city, western city and eastern city of Tianjin."

"It must be like this," Qin Hui said, "Minister, let's go and meet the Emperor while there is still time?"

"Okay," Zhang Bangchang nodded, "I'll ask about the news about Wu Yiyong and Wu Yixin."

Zhang Bangchang and Qin Hui did not meet Emperor Maode, because Emperor Mao was not in Nanshi, Tianjin, but went to the fortress of East Tianjin with Pan Qiaolian - are you ready to run away to the Donghai Kingdom to join the Donghai King and the Princess?

Although he did not meet Emperor Maode, Zhang Bangchang and Qin Hui still received news about Wu Yiyong and Wu Yixin.

Wu Yijiu, who had just become the acting head of state, signed an order to establish the corps of defiance and awarded the rank of Major General Wu Yi to serve as the governor of the corps of defiance and the rank of colonel Wu Yi Xin, and served as the governor of the Xi army of the subordinate of the corps of defiance and the rank of governor of the corps of defiance and the rank of governor of the corps of defiance and the rank of governor of the corps of defiance and the rank of governor of the corps of defiance and the rank of governor of the corps of defiance and the rank of governor of the corps of defiance.

In other words, Wu Yijiu recognized the military power of his two brothers... This also shows that Wu Yijiu is not able to take down his two brothers, so he can only use the method of tolerating them!

But how long can he stay stable? At most, until Yelu Aoluo is defeated, the Wu brothers should start a civil war, right?

Maybe it won’t be until then, Wu Yiyong and Wu Yixin will rise up and go south.

Both envoys of the Song Dynasty felt that the Zhou Dynasty was about to turmoil and Tianjin could not stay for a long time, so they immediately hired the Clippers and left Tianjin, a place of right and wrong before the border river was blocked.

When the clutch they were riding was approaching Sanhekou, an even more exciting scene appeared on the land of Zhouguo on the south bank of Jiehe River.

The infantry in the brigade was leaving a bastion on the side of Zhouguo on Sanhekou and walking towards Tianjin!

Wu Yijiu is mobilizing troops to Tianjin! Of course, the mobilization of troops to Tianjin is not to attack Dongliao, but to defend Tianjin. And to guard against enemies from the north! This enemy cannot be Dongliao, it can only be Wu Yiyong and Wu Yixin.

The Zhou Kingdom is really in chaos!

...

"Supervisor Xuan, Jishou, the Zhou army seemed to have withdrawn from the fortress on the east bank of Sanhekou!"

"Yes, thousands of people were withdrawn!"

Zhang Bangchang and Qin Hui met Lu Yihao, who had just arrived in the Sanhekou Fortress in the Song State. After Zhong Shidao and his two men immediately reported on the ship the Zhou army evacuated from the eastern bank of Sanhekou fortress.

"Uncle Yi, what do you think?" Lu Yihao seemed a little hesitant and asked Master Zhong beside him.

"The basin on the other side of the Yellow River is the gateway to guard Tianjin," Zhong Shidao shook his head, "How can the gateway be opened? Isn't this a fraud?"

"Is there a fraud?" Lu Yihao asked, "What fraud can it be?"

"This..." Zhong Shidao shook his head, "Can the Zhou army ambush the troops?"

"You can investigate and then start, it's not a problem." Lu Yihao frowned, "It's always good to get a bastion... If Zhou State really has civil turmoil, it can also send troops from Hedong Fortress in Tianjin."

Zhong Shidao also wanted to take the bastion on the other side of the river. But he felt that this was not that simple, "Shishuai Xuan, what name should we cross the river?"

"Protect the Emperor!" Yao Gu, who accompanied Lu Yihao to Sanhekou, smiled, "The two Emperors are in Tianjin. Once their brothers turn against each other, the Emperors will not be in trouble? We can cross the river in the name of greeting the Emperors. Then wait for an opportunity to act. If we can get the name of entering Tianjin South City, it would be a wonderful achievement."

"What if there is a big blow to the side?" Zhong Shidao has been in Hebei for many years and knows how powerful the Zhou army is.

"Not it?" Yao Gu said, "The Zhou Kingdom is about to fight, and he still fights with us? I think this advantage can be taken. At worst, I can let the envoys on both sides argue. Even if they withdraw in the end, it will be a waste of time. Isn't that guy Wu Yijiu want to fight with our Song Dynasty? Does he have any soldiers?"

"That's right..." Zhong Shidao thought about it and it was right. Wu Yi had no military power for a long time. "Why would you send a team to cross the river and take a look?"

Lu Yihao also nodded: "Then send a team of people to take a look first."

"Cross the river and take a look" means a cross-river reconnaissance record. In recent years, there have been many cross-border reconnaissances on the borders of Song Dynasty. The two sides generally don't fight, just curse a few words when they meet. They just start fighting, kill people, and end up leaving nothing.

But this time, the situation was different! Not only Lu Yihao, but also the senior officials of Zhong Shidao knew that Zhou State was going to fight a civil war, but most of the new army officers below also knew about it.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Finally, I can make a contribution! So when the new Song army scouts who crossed the river found that the Zhou army's bastion was empty, they immediately sent troops to occupy it without saying a word.

After learning about it, Lu Yihao, Zong Shidao and others did not transfer the troops back. Instead, they sent all the thousands of soldiers and horses from Kaifeng's first general across the Yellow River and entered the castle called the No. 1 Fortress in the South Bank by the Zhou Kingdom.
