Chapter 64 Foundation Building
During the Spring Festival in 1912, the rebirth of the Chinese Empire was spent in completely different political atmospheres at home and abroad.
In China, the new China Empire Provisional Government Cabinet is constantly looking for the operation order of this special land in various difficulties and stumbling, adapting to the operation order of China, the newly planned five-year heavy industry construction plan, the Dawuhan Industrial Zone, the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Industrial Zone, and the Sichuan Industrial Zone, as well as the Beijing-Tianjin-Tang-Anshan Industrial Zone, which spans Hebei and Liaoning provinces, the plans for four huge investments are being prepared and implemented under the leadership of the immature new government.
Foreign countries, under the tremendous pressure from the traditional British, French and Russian powers, the ** Army resolutely marched into North Korea and launched fierce battles with the Japanese army in the mountainous areas of northern Korea. However, something surprising is that in these battles, the Chinese Air Force airship unit that shocked the world and scared the Japanese army in the Lushun City Burning Battle did not appear on a large scale, but instead allowed the Chinese new ** Army to engage in a brutal war of position attrition with the Japanese army in the mountains and ridges with its superior forces and equipment.
At the end of January, on the eve of the upcoming traditional Chinese festival of the year, another good news spread across the country. Under the pressure of the strong unified tradition in the country, the Provisional Government of the Guangzhou ** Army issued a telegram, announcing that the orders of the Nanjing Central Government would be accepted and the country would be officially unified.
Most of the Provisional Governments were left to accept the arrangements of the Nanjing Central Government, while a few, including Sun Wen, Huang Xing, Hu Hanmin and Wang Jingwei, who were released from Beijing, regrettably announced their departure and no longer participated in state affairs. Tongmenghui, the party that left a lot of colors in China's history, disappeared from then on.
In fact, making this choice is purely helpless for the Tongmenghui. In the past year, the world has changed in the north, the hearts of the people in China have changed drastically, and the Northern Expedition and Battle of the Yellow Sea. Every move of the Nanjing Central Government has touched the hearts of hundreds of millions of descendants of Yan and Huang. It is closely combined with the interests of China's national and nationalities and has already become the core of the New China. Many former members of the Tongmenghui have been like each other from afar. Some of the original people in the Guangzhou government have resigned and gone north to contribute their own efforts to the construction of the New China.
At this point, as a political party aimed at overthrowing the Qing Dynasty and establishing a new China, the Tongmenghui had actually fallen apart and lost its appeal. It had no need to exist anymore. According to the ideas of Song Jiaoren and others, it required the Tongmenghui to be reorganized, a new political program was established, and a legal political competition in China. However, Sun Wen and Huang Xing were no longer interested in this proposal.
The departure of these two people and the death of the Tongmenghui, from then on, meant the complete end of the old China era and the beginning of the construction of the new China era. History also opened a new page for it.
...
Nanjing, the newly established cabinet of the Provisional Government of the Chinese Empire, Zhang Jian, deputy minister of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, said to his immediate superior, Hua Biao, the Imperial Minister of Industry and Commerce, (son of Hua Xin, the son of the Imperial Elder Hua Xin),
"The northern part of our country has always had a lot of talents. I think that in the construction of personnel in the Hebei-Liao Industrial Zone, we should be tilted towards local talents. Some people from the former Beijing government can be used for use, and some people from the Zhang Zuolin government in the Northeast can also be promoted. There is no need to adjust the talent resources that are already scarce in the south."
Hua Biao looked at Zhang Jian, but did not answer immediately. He looked at Xun You and others who were getting started, and said:
"About this issue, I think it depends on the Prime Minister's intentions."
The Prime Minister of the Empire and Xun You, who was born in the Baath Party, accepted the light-filled sentence of Huabiao flying over. After a little change of mind, he already knew the meaning. Hebei-Liao Industrial Zone, namely the Beijing-Tianjin-Tang-Anshan Industrial Zone, was already attracted by the people behind Zhang Jian.
Zhang Jian is definitely one of the celebrities in modern Chinese history. He is related to many parties of this era and plays an important role in many fields.
He was a Beiyang predecessor who was as famous as Yuan Shikai in the Beiyang system, but on the other hand, he advocated industrial saving the country. He was an expert in the field of industrial and commercial industries in the empire. The cotton textile industry in Tongzhou, Jiangsu, established by one, was the leader of the national industry. In order to promote the development of industry and commerce, he also promoted the establishment of a new education - Tongzhou Self-established Normal School, which was the first normal school in modern China. At this time, he was one of the leaders of the Constitutional Party. After the establishment of the Nanjing government, he entered the Ministry of Industry and Commerce with his rich experience in the political and economic fields, becoming the backbone of the Constitutional Party in the Nanjing government.
At this time, his speech on the issue of the Ji-Liao Industrial Zone was obviously not aimless. Judging from his words, the old people of the Beiyang government were a little unwilling to be lonely when they saw the current situation?
Xun You thought about it and suppressed this issue. The construction of the four heavy industrial zones of the empire involves the fundamental strategy of the future empire, and is definitely not a place that party struggles should involve.
After the meeting, Xun You asked Zhang Jian to stay, and the two went to Xuanwu Lake Liyuan to pay homage to the imperial emperor Li Zhe.
"Yuan Weiting can't do it anymore. Before he dies, he wants to ask Your Majesty for love!" In front of Li Zhe, Zhang Jian said so much, and he made the matter clear in one sentence.
"Beiyang has made contributions and made achievements in our China, but it is undeniable that it has indeed supported the last period of disasters and disasters under the Qing Dynasty. Its talents emerged. Now many capable ministers in my empire, President Sa and Principal Yan, were once from the Beiyang system, and there were still many talents under Yuan Weiting's curtain. Even if he and Yuan Weiting died together in Linquan, it would be a great loss to the country and the nation! He wanted to ask His Majesty for grace and ask His Majesty to give the talents under Beiyang a way out, so that he could die with peace of mind!"
After hearing this, Li Zhe felt a little sad. He was about to die and his words were good. It was rare for a generation of heroes like Yuan Weiting to let go of everything and to find a way out for his subordinates before he died.
However, sympathy is sympathy, Li Zhe has no idea of changing his destiny. In this China, there is enough for Li Zhe, and no one else will have the opportunity to stand up and compete. Human nature is fundamentally selfish.
If Yuan Shikai was alive, although he could not make too many storms on the opposite side of Li Zhe, if such a person existed alone, it would make a stable country produce many storms out of thin air. This person's prestige in the Beiyang system is really too strong. Almost all of those people were brought out by him. In China, a country that emphasizes loyalty and filial piety, the natural appeal of its natural storm is immeasurable. Therefore, as long as he is alive, Li Zhe will definitely not plan to use Duan Qirui and others.
Now that Yuan Shikai is dead, those people can be liberated.
Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, Cao Kun, Wu Peifu, Tang Shaoyi, Wu Tingfang, Gu Weijun and other many other celebrities of the era who were in power in the future were all born in the Beiyang system. If Li Zhe cut off the path of these people, it can be said that the stage of modern Chinese history would be less than at least half of the elites of the era.
Li Zhe thought for a while and turned his eyes to Zhang Jian.
"Ji Zhi! Do you know that I am not pitying the emergence of talents in the Beiyang area, but to use these people, there is a problem, which always makes me feel like a thorn in my throat!"
When Zhang Jian heard that there was a door, he asked hurriedly:
"Your Majesty, what's the problem? What makes your Majesty so afraid?"
Li Zhe stood up and walked a few steps, without answering immediately, but started with the Baath Party:
"Ji Zhi should also know that the Baath Party I founded overseas advocates new era and new thinking, and abandons many of the dregs that existed in the old Chinese officialdom, such as jealousy of the wise and capable, nepotism, offensive, and corruption... These unspoken rules have been circulated in the Chinese officialdom for hundreds or thousands of years. The old Qing courts have even developed all this to the peak, and can be called the worst of the governments of all dynasties, and have never been better than that in history.
The rise of China's ** in such a piece of sediment is bound to fight against all the old social trends.
In fact, I think that the reason why China was finally completed by our Baeking Party is probably one of the reasons. Your party has been ups and downs in the Qing Dynasty for a long time because it lacks the courage needed for the Baeking Party. It is precisely because our Baeking Party has been developing overseas, with firm goals and pure structure that we have always maintained strong combat effectiveness. All of this, I hope to bring it to our new China and carry forward it on the land of China.
In this way, our Chinese nation can truly be renewed and stand tall among the nations of the world from now on.
And Beiyang? At this point, it is exactly what I am worried about."
When Zhang Jian heard this, he finally understood Li Zhe’s hidden worries. Only when Li Zhe had always grasped the power of personnel has truly gained a deep understanding of Li Zhe.
The bad nature mentioned by Li Zhe is probably not just the people in Beiyang, but why is the whole of China? This problem is inseparable from this society itself. Many people in the constitutional party are of such old bureaucratic origins.
No wonder Li Zhe seemed to be more willing to use people from the ** party, such as Sun Wu and Jiang Lingwu, but he did not like people from old bureaucrats such as Tan Yankai. In Wuhan, he was even more harsh and killed Li Yuanhong directly. That person was very popular among the old bureaucrats and was the most prosperous one.
Standing at the national level, Li Zhe's worries can be said to have touched the most essential social and cultural itself, Zhang Jian, who is known as the most outstanding elite of this era, but he cannot truly answer it.
Li Zheneng and Zhang Jian bluntly told each other, which was the new type of political exchange advocated by the Faxing Party, which was a concise and simple political dialogue advocated, and it was also a communication between the Faxing Party and the Constitutional Party on China's future macro policies.
...
In the spring of 1912, the new government of the Chinese Empire began a new political action, and carried out a gradual inclusion of the original military governments, and included them one by one under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing government.
In this process, the Constitutional Party, Tongmenghui, and a large number of young and promising talents from the original Beiyang system were gradually absorbed into the entire Nanjing government system with the Baath Party as the core and the Restoration Association as the auxiliary. Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, Wang Shizhen were successively absorbed into the newly established Imperial National Defense University to teach. Tang Shaoyi, Wu Tingfang, Wang Chonghui and others entered the relevant departments of the Imperial Government respectively.
The Chinese Empire government has gradually developed its function as a river of rivers and spread the potential of China, an ancient oriental empire, to be truly exploded bit by bit. (To be continued. Please search for Piaotianyi, novels are better, updated and faster!)
