Chapter 39 President Feng Da
Liu Jingxiao bowed and bowed, and he said, "My wife and Ding Chongding's inspection tour were very friendly, so she really wanted to go to Hubei!"
Xu Youzheng's face looked a little better. Ding Chong belonged to the E-sect. At least Liu Jingxiao's bone had not fallen into the direct line. He advised again: "Ding Chong has difficulty in funding, and Wang Jueshuai is famous for being stingy. It's better to stay with me!"
Liu Jingxiao looked bitter and apologized repeatedly: "It's really my wife's fate that I dare not refuse to obey. Please forgive me..."
Xu Youzheng still had a little hope, and he asked: "Ding Chong's inspection has given him an answer? Brother, don't be in vain!"
Liu Jingxiao's face was full of apology: "Ding Chong and my wife had a covenant, and today they sent another telegram to urge us to leave."
In the past two days, Liu Jingxiao has been busy contacting all parties in bed.
Hearing that Liu Jingxiao was willing to go south to surrender to him, Ding Chonghui called: "Unlimited welcome!"
Liu Jingxiao informed the cadres of this situation. The cadres felt that going south to Hubei was a way out, and Liu Jingxiao also arranged a way out, and they all agreed to go to Hubei to make a breakthrough.
Seeing that things were not done, Xu Youzheng sighed and said, "It's really a coincidence... Then I'm going to say goodbye too..."
China is a country of etiquette. Although Liu Jingxiao and the cadres wanted Xu Youzheng to leave immediately, they still held his hand intimately and told him to stay for a few more days. They were wasting half a day of effort. When Xu Youzheng officially said goodbye, Liu Jingxiao took another cadre to send him off for more than ten miles to say goodbye, which was like a child sharing a scarf.
Xu Zhen also said goodbye with Xu Youzheng, but only Yan Aoshuang used the excuse to see the students and stayed to meet Liu Jingxiao for a few days.
A few days later, the official appointment order of the central government was issued. Liu Jingxiao's Dingbian Army was reorganized into the Fourth Mixed Regiment of the Central Committee, which was affiliated with the Two Lakes Inspection Envoy. Liu Jingxiao had a telegram to oppose the Central Committee's "magic achievements". He was promoted to the second level to the colonel's regiment commander and was awarded the fifth-class Wenhu seal.
On the same day, various commission orders flew to various provinces like snowflakes.
This time, the King of Lu governors did not get the bones, so he invited a group of Qi to join Jinan, who were not getting the bones. The governors who did not attend the meeting also sent representatives to participate and officially announced the reconstruction of the governors. After the meeting, a collective resignation was sent in the name of twenty-three inspectors, supervisors, guards, and division commanders.
The Army Supervisor is the military trade union. As for collective strikes, it is the specialty of all the military supervisors, but the government really said that they would exempt anyone, and they collectively called for settlement of wages. They actually settled the wages and said that they had many military men. They could still control themselves for many years. Once they resigned, it was difficult to ensure that they could not act freely...
So such a huge momentum really made Duan Tiemin unable to sleep or eat, so he could only throw out a few more bones to comfort him.
Shandong New Training Brigade 1, Shanxi New Training Second Regiment, Henan New Edit... They are all telegrams like this
Of course, the Zhili Army was also divided into bones. Wang Bincheng sent a telegram to tell Liu Jingxiao that his mixed brigade was originally scheduled to expand the first regiment, but now he is allowed to expand the first regiment and the first battalion. In addition, the two infantry brigades of the original Zhili Army First Division were expanded into Zhili's mixed 3rd and 4th brigades.
Since I was divided into bones, the generals changed their faces and took back the resignation telegram. The generals of Jiangsu Feng Li led: "I firmly believe that the virtues and prestige of my prime minister will surely be able to create a foundation for the country's unparalleled..."
After the power was turned on, the calls for cooperation between the direct and Hubei were louder, as if the telegrams from the previous two days were all impersonated by others.
Of course, cooperation between direct and Hubei cannot be expressed in words but also requires practical actions. The next day, the presidential election meeting was officially held. A group of "public opinion representatives" escorted southern parliamentarians into the venue. With a silver bullet offensive, Jiangsu Governor Feng Li was elected on the spot as the new president of the Republic.
But before the president, Feng Li, took office, made many jokes.
He did not want to go to Peking to be a president with a reputation with bare hands, so he came up with a wonderful idea to move the capital to Nanjing. In this way, the Congress and the Cabinet were all under his control, but the knowledgeable man could see at a glance that this idea would not work.
He had no choice but to make up his mind to go north, but before Li Ning there were many despicable artificialities. He instructed Jiangsu people to gather to keep him. When the Jiangsu General Chamber of Commerce held a meeting to keep the general, he sent an adjutant to the meeting to ask for the telegram, for fear that it would not suit his wishes.
Although it is a strange phenomenon to keep yourself, it is common in Chinese officialdom. Since this case, there are naturally a group of "old people who make money" who come up with some strange ideas, and even proposed to take over the position of President Su (it can be said to be a strange story in the world). As for learning from Wei Jiuqian to build a temple, cast a bronze elephant, and erect a monument to think of it, it is no problem.
The provincial parliament sent telegrams to refute them, and as for gentry, business, school, and agriculture, no group did not send telegrams to refute them. The Chinese official intention was the public opinion. Even if they were three feet tall, they would definitely be "the people were like mountains and seas, climbing and lying on the rut, crying and sending them to a hundred miles away." How could President Feng be an exception? He chose the representative of lying on the rut early.
Of course, President Feng still did not want to go to Beijing with bare hands, claiming that "the road is not stable, Li will bring a few guards to defend themselves." What is the degree of this "a few guards to defend themselves"? It turned out that the first division and brigade of the Jiangsu Provincial Army were going to enter Beijing with the President. There were a total of 17,000 people, carrying more than 50 cannons, millions of bullets, and one thousand mules and horses. In case a strong man came out on the road, he shouted: "I planted this tree..."
However, in order to promote cooperation between direct and Hubei, Duan Tiemin gritted his teeth and endured it, but President Feng had one good show after another before heading north.
Chinese officials are never shameless, but the Chinese people are still shameless. Before Feng Li set off, he sent patrol officers in Nanjing to set up seats and leave seats for merchants, and each seat is rewarded with four yuan, but only four seats were made in the city.
The great president set off, how could he have only four seats for him? This was too shameful for the president. So he asked the president of the Chamber of Commerce and bowed to everyone, and finally got thirty years of the thirty.
President Feng loved the people as much as his son and came to thank him personally, but the armed soldiers were on guard along the way and prohibited pedestrians, which seemed to be inconsistent with the president's original intention.
Unfortunately, the so-called "cakes on the road" include tea and white water, and there is almost no capital spent, but you can earn four dollars to make a foreign land. When the president arrived, the host bowed deeply, and the president replied with a slight gift, poured the tea on the ground with his hands. The solemn ceremony of the unity of officials and the people was completed.
After leaving, there were more tricks. The Chamber of Commerce bought 200,000 firecrackers at its own expense and delivered them to Jinan. The students also entrusted the president's blessings. On a day off, they waved flags and raised flowers to stand by the road to see off. Some officials and gentry sent them to Jinan before bidding farewell, and some sent them to the presidential palace. This was a once-in-a-lifetime grand occasion.
However, most of the people sent to the Presidential Palace were unwilling to return to Jiangsu and were willing to "share the joys and sorrows" with the president. I think "share the sorrows" may not be necessary, but sharing the joys and sorrows are certain.
Of course, what the newspaper said is absolutely unbelievable. The "Shenbao" said that before the president left, he accepted more than 30 disciples and adopted sons, each of whom received several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan, and he appointed important positions according to the amount, either county magistrate or director, so that the new supervisor would be disturbed by the personnel arrangements. But think about it, we President Feng has always liked the officials and the people to have fun together. Can we be such a person?
As for Guangdong's Republic Times, the president took 700,000 yuan from the Nanjing treasury, and asked the Finance Department to transfer the bank to China to borrow 800,000 yuan from Shanghai Industrial Bank...
Chapter completed!
