Chapter 330 The country of the United States(1/2)
Qin "Dou Na Lejue asked so puzzledly!" Why did it take many names to mourn Chinese history very short? As the oldest country in the East, if you give the name of the Chinese Empire, I think it is better than Qin!"
The name of China originated from the ancient Chinese Chinese nation in the Yellow River Basin. It is located in all directions, has a strong culture and a long history, so it is called China, also known as the Central Plains and China.
Zhang Yunfei smiled and said, "The Chinese Empire? It's good, good name, "Zhong." is the four Wei and Jin dynasties Zhong Xin's concept of "harmony between man and nature," from "China, and "China."
The two names are composed of one word. ‘Zhong. Focuses on nature (heaven), and is in the world; ‘Hua focuses on nation (people), which means the Chinese ethnic group! I didn’t expect you to be really a Chinese expert, but I plan to keep this country name for five or ten years before using it!”
"Why?" Sir Huannale was confused and did not understand Zhang Yunfei's intentions.
Instead of answering Sir Dou Nale's question directly, Zhang Yunji asked back: "Do you think China should take the path of imperialism or republic?"
Sir Dou Nale subconsciously said: "The imperial government naturally hopes that China will follow the path of republic. It is a regime that represents civilization and freedom. Of course, I personally think that since China and Britain are alliances, I think that if China can also implement a constitutional monarchy, the political, economic, cultural, military and other aspects of the civilized countries will be closer because of the same social system!"
Zhang Yunfei nodded and said, "Even you said that you hope China will follow the path of republic. And the current opposition between Ouyuan's political and military structure is not only due to the conflict of interests between countries. I think there is another more important factor, which is the natural opposition between republican countries and imperial countries. The conflict between Germany and France, Germany and Britain is becoming more and more intense, and they will never interact with each other when they die. What about Germany and Russia, which are also two major camps? In recent years, Germany has been making warships, airships, and even shipyards for Russia. Why? Because Germany and Russia are both imperial and have a common language, while Germany and France, and Britain are overthrowing and being overthrown. Either the imperial system replace the republic or the republic replace the imperial system. Therefore, I think your British government must want China to follow the path of republic the most. And you are just coming to me to test the market, right?"
"Uh Mo Nale felt a little depressed. Every time he met Zhang Yunfei, it seemed that Zhang Yunfei would expect his true intentions, "Okay. You are right. As you guessed, the London government really hopes that China will follow the path of republic!"
"So you secretly acknowledged that Li Hongzhang and the others had established the Hezhong Government!" Zhang Yunfei asked tightly.
"Uh" Shinna saw that Zhang Yunfei was a little angry and said hurriedly: "Please forgive me, the British government is still optimistic about you!"
Originally, Zhang Yunfei was just deliberately testing Mo Nale. After so many years of dealing with him, Zhang Yunfei knew Dou Nale so well. Sure enough, after Zhang Yunfei set one trap after another, Dou Nale revealed his secret mission, which was the true attitude of the British government.
Damn British guy, he actually stepped on two boats!
Zhang Yunfei already knew the intentions of the British government. As he expected, Britain actually did not fully believe that Zhang Yunfei won the war against Russia and Japan at the same time. Even if he won in the end, he would be exhausted and injured.
For this reason, the British left a hand in preparation and secretly supported the Southeast provinces to establish the United States. In this way, no matter whether Zhang Yunfei wins or fails, the British's interests in China will not be greatly damaged.
On the contrary, because both governments were supported by Britain, no matter who eventually became the ruler of China, Britain will make sure to make a profit!
His heart is punishable!
Zhang Yunfei thought fiercely in his heart, but then his anger flashed away! Didn’t that country do two things or even prepare for multiple things? Even Zhang Yunfei was not completely hanged on a big tree in the UK, right?
Zhang Yunfei Lixuan regained his smile and said, "Of course I believe in your country's sincerity!
For this reason, I will set up a new government immediately.”
Dounale breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Do you have established an imperial government or a republic government?"
Zhang Yunfei smiled and said, "Do you think China is suitable for establishing an imperial government or a republic government?"
After thinking for a while, Dou Nale said: "China has a population of nearly 500 million, and is deeply rooted in the feudal imperial thought of more than two thousand years. I personally think that with the current chaos in China, a strong imperial government is still very popular! However, since you already understand the wishes of the British Empire government, I think it would be better for you to establish a republic government!"
"That's right!" Zhang Yunfei nodded and said, "I mean that too!" After pausing, Zhang Yunfei continued, "Only a few million Chinese people know the republic, and there are very few who truly understand the meaning of the republic, and only 1,800 people are killed. In this case, establishing a republican government can only make China, which is already chaotic, even more chaotic. Do you know why I want to create a Qin?"
"Uh" Mo Nale supported her eyebrows. Obviously this question is very challenging."
Zhang Yunfei looked at Huannale's expression and smiled and said, "Have you ever heard this sentence? Do you say "Wuyi"? You are the same as your comrade. Wang Yu started his army to repair my spear. He is the same as his vengeance with him. How could he say "Wuyi"? You are the same as your foe.
Wang Yu raised his army and repaired my spear and halberd. How could he say he had no clothes when he was with me? He shared his clothes with me. Wang Yu raised his army and repaired my armor and hair with me and cloth with me."
Looking at Huannale's ignorant look, Zhang Yunfei's eyes were a little cold and said, "Old Qin, let me regain my world, and my blood will not flow dry, and I will never stop fighting! Two thousand years ago, Qin Shihuang unified China, ended hundreds of years of Warring States Period, and built the Great Wall to resist foreign humiliation! Now two thousand years have passed, China's two thousand years of glory no longer exists, and internal strife and external humiliation. The Great Wall can no longer resist foreign humiliation. How similar is it to two thousand years ago?"
“You mean,”
Personally, Dou Nale sympathizes with China's situation, understands Zhang Yunfei's meaning, and admires his actions. However, as the British ambassador in China, he does not want Zhang Yunfei to include Britain as the foreign humiliation he wants to resist.
"It's nothing! It's just complaining!" Zhang Yunfei said: "At this time, what the Chinese need is the Qin Dynasty's will of 'Don't run dry, never stop fighting, and let me let you go" to make the word "China. This word is truly worthy of its name. Then let's talk about how to republic!"
"So, you want to rebuild the new Great Wall belonging to China with Qin?" Jun Nale finally understood Zhang Yunfei's words. Zhang Yunfei stared at Dou Nale tightly, his eyes were like a torch, and nodded, "That's right, I just want to use Qin's strength to recast the Great Wall to guard China! However, Qin is just a dynasty of the 'name', not China's country name, just a short dynasty two thousand years ago!"
Dou Nale asked: "What do you mean is to establish a feudal dynasty. Qin is just one of the more Chinese dynasties? Please be honest, if you do this, it will hurt the British Empire's expectations of you!"
Zhang Yunfei shook his head and said, "You are thinking seriously! My ultimate goal is to establish a constitutional monarchy country like your country. Her name is just like you said, only the word "China." can be worthy of her! But at present, my country is too far from the word "China"!"
Dou Nale also knows what the word "China" means to the Chinese? It is the center of the world and the king of the world! But obviously, China is currently a thousand miles away from this meaning!
However, when he heard that Zhang Yunfei's ultimate goal was to establish a constitutional monarchy like Britain, Dou Nall immediately asked happily: "Really? That's great! In that case, the British government and your country will be closer!"
Zhang Yunfei nodded and said, "It is the general trend that the world republic replaces the imperial system, so I plan to establish a transitional government. The task of the transitional government is to defend China's sovereignty, independence and territory, and the wisdom of the people of the Jingqi Chinese people. After 500 million Chinese people truly understand what democracy and freedom are, the responsibilities of the transitional government will be completed. At that time, China can use the word "China," which represents prosperity, freedom, democracy and civilization. The name of China is well deserved!"
Dou Nale nodded and said, "Chinese culture is too profound. I don't fully understand what you mean, but since your ultimate goal is to establish a constitutional monarchy like ours, I can explain to the British government. At the same time, I personally wish your Great Qin government to be invincible like the Qin State two thousand years ago, end the troubled times as soon as possible, complete unification, and rewrite the glory of China!"
Looking at Dou Nale's sincere expression, Zhang Yunfei was very moved and said two words for a long time, "Thank you!"
After Dou Nale left, Zhang Yunfei shouted to the next door: "Everyone has left, why are you still listening to the corner of the wall? Come in!"
A creak!
As soon as the door opened, Zhao Wang and others entered one after another, and then Tang Shaoyi, Tian Renjie and others also walked sideways. It seemed that everyone was here!
"We're all here! Tell me, when will this problem be changed in the corner of the wall be changed?" Zhang Yunfei looked around for a week and said, "We are about to establish a country. You are all heroes of the founding country. In the future, you must pay attention to your appearance! Telling out the committee makes people laugh!"
"What is Yuan Sect!" Everyone answered embarrassedly.
"By the way!" Tang Shaoyi suddenly asked: "Yuan, are you really going to establish an over-government?"
Seeing that Tang Shaoyi and others were very concerned about this issue, Zhang Yunfei nodded and said, "That's right! You should know that the current situation in China. Li Hongzhang and others have begun to build the Hezhong government in the southeastern provinces. We cannot be behind them. This is one of them.
China is currently in anarchy. In addition to the several provinces in Southeast Mutual Protection, the current attitude of other provinces is also very important. It can be said that China has entered the Warring States Period. Once it is used by the powerful powers of various countries, the consequences are likely to cause China's division. This is what I least want to see!
Third, Mongolia, Shanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Xinjiang, Tibet, these places are barriers to northern China. Judging from their failure to join Southeast Mutual Protection, they can be won over by us!”
Tang Shaoyi said: "Before, I thought that although you could become the emperor of the ages and achieve a huge empire, I looked at the trend of the world republic. The imperial system will not last long, and I still want to obstruct you? Now it seems that your courage is simply ashamed of Shaochuan. I agree with you to establish an over-government. After 500 million people become more intelligent and enlightened, then implement constitutional monarchy. However, excessive government is a bit bad to call Qin!"
Zhao Cai opposed: "What's wrong with Qin? Isn't it that I'm not good about being a comrade with my son? Isn't this a portrayal of our present? Isn't it that old Qin, regaining my rivers and mountains. Blood will not flow dry, and I will never stop fighting! This is simply our mission today! Premier Tang, you are a literati, and you may be disgusted with the tyranny of Qin, which we can understand! But our soldiers are different? Now our soldiers should sweep the **, pacify the eight deserts, and be invincible! Unifying China and expel foreign humiliation can only be accomplished by the iron blood of Qin!"
Chief of Staff Tian Renjie immediately agreed: "Yes, the current situation is not a time when scholars can control it. What we need to rely on is the iron blood of soldiers! It is just a transitional government, and the name doesn't matter, but for us soldiers, the word Qin can give our army the greatest cohesion and help us achieve the final victory!"
In Tang Shaoyi's opinion, as long as he finally takes the path of democracy and enlightenment, he is not the emperor's autocracy, but he supports it, saying, "I am just that, and I haven't stopped you. Now it's time to conquer the world, so I naturally have to do what you said, and I still understand this!"
Zhang Yunfei smiled and said, "Okay, don't fight anymore. Look how good Shaochuan said. Now it's time to conquer the world, so we have to use the means of conquering the world! The reason for using Qin to transition is that I mainly consider the stability of the northwest provinces. The eight northwest provinces occupy more than half of China's territory. It is also the barrier for us to resist Russia. Li Hongzhang's Hezhong government will obviously exclude them. This is short-sighted! Our transitional government is called Qin, and Qin is a general term for the northwest. This will give these provinces a signal that we accept them and will help us maintain the current situation."
It turned out that Zhang Yunfei walked out of this consideration. Everyone in the house understood Zhang Yunfei's intention at this moment and nodded to say yes.
"Yuan, you always come out with the overall national situation, and we are deeply impressed!" Tang Shaoyi said respectfully: "Then I will prepare for the throne ceremony for you now!"
"No need!" Zhang Yunfei waved his hand to stop it and said, "There is no need to make that thing!" Then he said, "Although we have established a Provisional Government of the Great Qin Empire, you only need a press conference! When we establish the Chinese Empire government, we will show it off!"
"Yes! Yuan!" Tang Shaoyi said with relief: "Should we call you His Majesty the Emperor of Qin?"
When the civil and military ministers in the room heard this, they immediately understood and knelt down to worship the Qing Dynasty demolition workers' chapter 330: The whole country is in danger: "Long live the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire! When they heard them shouting "Long live" Zhang Yunfei was very proud. How could men not have a little vanity?
But seeing them kneeling for themselves, Zhang Yunfei suddenly glared, waved his hand, and said, "You are so angry that you are so angry that you kneel down again? This is just a title. All the unregulated kneeling etiquettes of the Qing Dynasty used to be abolished. Did you hear it?"
"I'm following the order!" Everyone stood up quickly. But looking at their expressions, how did Zhang Yunfei think these guys were intentional?
Especially Tang Shaoyi, he suppressed his smile. Zhang Yunfei immediately turned his face down.
"Tang Shaoyi, you kid come and test me again, right?" Zhang Yunfei pointed at Tang Shaoyi and asked.
Tang Shaoyi hurriedly said, "I dare not! You abolish these messy powers of the Qing Dynasty.
Yi. It is really awesome to the people, it is really a blessing for the ministers and the officials. All officials are very lucky, and all the people in the world are very lucky!"
Hey! The character of Tang Shaoyi is really surprised Zhang Yunfei.
"Okay!" Zhang Yunfei pointed at Tang Shaoyi and said, "Shaochuan, you are now Prime Minister Ren of the Imperial Government. I will give you a day, and you will organize the new government cabinet. If it is a mess and the state machine cannot operate, let me see how I deal with you!"
"I obey the order!" Tang Shaoyi still answered respectfully, but his face was filled with joy that could not be concealed.
Watching Tang Shaoyi and other civil servants leave, Zhang Yunfei shook his head helplessly. Tang Shaoyi has learned smoothly now. Could it be that the emperor put too much pressure on him? But this girl obviously has no intention of being afraid at all?
Next, Zhang Yunfei held a military meeting with Chief of Staff Tian Renjie, Minister of the 6th Army Zhao Wang and others. At the meeting, Zhang Yunfei discussed the current strategies to deal with the domestic situation.
In a short period of time, the governors of various provinces did not make any big moves. Although there were many people who supported the Qing court, there were almost no one who had the courage to march towards Zhili.
The main task at present is to recruit the rear army of the Wuwei who was still carrying Dong Fuxiang of Hejian Prefecture in Zhili. Although they were already in the imperial court, they were not modern new 6th Army, but they were elite troops in the former Qing dynasty.
The so-called elites are just relative to the Green Camp soldiers and Eight Banners soldiers before the Qing Dynasty. The five troops that Cixi guarded the capital were carefully selected. Looking at the millions of troops in the Qing Dynasty, only 100,000 troops were selected to guard the capital. It can be seen that these people are all Chinese elites, at least they cannot be opium ghosts. It can be seen from Zhang Guangqian's left army. Once these people are equipped with the Chinese army, they should not be called the Qin army for the time being. After being equipped with the advanced weapons of the Qin army, they will be an elite army in a short time.
At the same time, Zhang Yunfei was also ready for battle; once these people did not surrender, Zhang Yunfei would definitely not allow them to devote themselves to the surrounding provinces and must be eliminated to eliminate future troubles.
In addition to incorporating the former Qing army in Zhili, Zhang Yunfei also sent the first division troops to Cangzhou, Tianjin Prefecture, and officially recruited Nie Shicheng's troops, which had blocked the Eight-Nation Alliance's continued invasion of Zhili.
On April 7th, 2019, on Sunday, Easter, Prime Minister Tang Shaoyi convened ministers and consuls from various countries to China and held a press conference.
At the press conference, Tang Shaoyi, on behalf of Zhang Yunfei, announced the establishment of the temporary transitional government of the Chinese Empire, and represented the temporary government of China with the Qin Dynasty.
During this period, Tang Shaoyi made a move and issued a resignation edict from the former Qing empress dowager Cixi, which stated that the emperor had passed away and had no children. The members of the royal family were embarrassed by the great responsibilities and said that those who were virtuous in the world were responsible for it. Only the Northeast General Zhang Yunfei had this qualification and specially ordered Zhang Yunfei to take over the Qing Dynasty.
Then Tang Shaoyi quoted the example of Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty changing the name of Tang to Zhou, and it was natural to change the Qing Dynasty to Qin. Although everyone knew the tricks, they could not stop the fact that the Qing Dynasty was in the Qin Dynasty.
The state affairs are nothing more than just looking forward to a legitimate statement. After Tang Shaoyi announced the establishment of a new government, the British ambassador Jazz Wannale first recognized the legitimacy of the temporary transitional government of the Chinese Empire on behalf of the British government, and then all other countries except Russia and Japan recognized it at the first moment.
In addition to taking the tyranny of Britain, countries are more looking forward to how Zhang Yunfei's imperial government resolves the Boxer Rebellion and the protection of the interests of various countries in China.
Of course, if you look carefully, you will know that Tang Shaoyi has made trouble with the country's name. In addition to revealing that the temporary transitional government was the imperial Qin Dynasty, the official documents to countries around the world were written under the name of the Chinese Empire government.
After Zhang Yunfei found out, he did not blame Tang Shaoyi. His purpose was to appease the domestic forces and boost the morale of the army. However, Zhang Yunfei was very angry that he did not make things difficult for Tang Shaoyi?
It has to be said that Tang Shaoyi is now at ease in commanding and operating the national government machinery. In just one day, he has established a responsible cabinet. Congress and other authority agencies. Of course, Congress is just an empty-handed, and the cabinet has copied the original Shengjing cabinet by slight changes.
The cabinet is responsible to the emperor, Congress supervises the cabinet, Prime Minister Tang Shaoyi, Chief of Staff of the Cabinet, Zhao Renjie, 6 Minister of the Army, Du Xigui, Minister of the Navy, Feng Ru, Minister of the Air Force. Minister of the Interior, Tang Shouqian, Minister of the Foreign Affairs, Liang Cheng, Minister of the Justice, Xu Shichang, Minister of the Education, Cai Yuanpei, Minister of the Finance, Zhang Sai, Minister of the Finance, Zhan Tianzuo, Minister of the Transportation, and Zhao Bingjun, Minister of the Industry.
The main organs directly under the jurisdiction of each ministries are: the embassies and consulates of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the provincial negotiations office, the special conference committee of the tariffs, the legal discussion committee, etc. The Royal Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Preparatory Council of the Parliamentary Affairs, the Relief Office, the River Affairs Bureau, the Guardian Administration, etc. The Salt Services Office of the Ministry of Finance, the Salt Services Office, the National Tobacco and Alcohol Public Sales Office, the National Tobacco and Alcohol Affairs Office, the General Preparatory Office of the State Taxation Department, the Stamp Duty Office, the Mint, the Gold Bureau, the Imperial Bank,
Tongshang Bank, etc. The 6th Army Prison of the 6th Army, the 6th Army Survey Bureau, the Navy Commander-in-Chief, the Navy Fleet Commander-in-Chief, the Navy Port Commander-in-Chief, the Seaway Survey Bureau, etc. The Special Judicial Affairs Committee of the Ministry of Justice, the Judicial Materials Storage Museum, the Central Observatory of the Ministry of Education, the Editorial Museum, the Mining Administration Supervision Office of the Ministry of Industry, the Geological Survey Office, the Forestry Office, the Trademark Office of the Ministry of Transportation, the Railway Administration, the Telecommunications Administration, the General Administration of the Political Bureau, etc.
As for the most important laws, there is no time to sort out the smallest ones. The Zhili area is still in a state of military control, and the laws are enforced in accordance with the previous laws in Honolulu.
However, there was an extra special law, and a series of policies and regulations were issued. For example, prohibiting Liu Jun from excluding torture, kneeling down, smoking opium, foot binding, foot binding, Chapter 330 of the Qing Dynasty's demolition workers, generally the original institutions of Washington. However, they were all magnified and subdivided.
It’s true that the responsible cabinet established by the Internet started operating that afternoon, and it was still very busy.
The Zongli Yamen, which was originally close to the embassy areas of various countries in Dongjiaomin Lane, has now changed its doors and turned into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Empire.
To be continued...
