Chapter 85 Everyone goes his own way (5)

Also on the 29th, the two peace talks finally reached a preliminary compromise under the attention of the consuls.

During the negotiations in Hankou, Yang Shiqi led the talks with Li Muyan and Sun Baoqi. Originally, Sun Baoqi advised Fang Jianxiong to attend, but Fang Jianxiong said: "Yuan Shikai didn't attend, so why should I attend?" Sun Baoqi felt irritated at the time, but later thought about it.

Only after some time did I realize Fang Jianxiong's true thoughts, which were to put himself and Yuan Shikai on an equal footing to look at the problem.

Sun Baoqi is very happy that his students have great ambitions!

The consuls of various countries, led by the British consul, appeared to observe the peace talks. Finally, the armistice contract was signed in black and white, which literally stipulated the territories of both parties. The Beiyang Army unconditionally withdrew from Anhui and Hubei's jurisdiction. It was agreed that the armistice period would be three months. Specific details of the withdrawal were given.

, the two parties will then negotiate.

After the contract was signed, both parties breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Jianxiong was finally able to take this time to sort out the internal affairs thoroughly. There were not many problems with the army. The governments of Anhui and Hubei had to talk to each other.

The peace talks in Shanghai also produced the results of the first phase, reaching an agreement to convene a National Assembly, referendum on the state system, and the Qing troops in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Hubei, Anhui and other places to withdraw hundreds of miles within five days. Only Anhui and Hubei

The hearts of the two places belong to Bai Cao in Shanghai.

The results of the North-South peace talks in Shanghai shocked the whole country. All the provinces in Taiwan were led by the Tongmenghui. This peace negotiation led by the Tongmenghui naturally attracted everyone's attention. Naturally, a large number of major newspapers reported on this major event. Unexpectedly, the person who caused the sensation turned out to be Wu Yanggu

an article of.

The article raised serious doubts about the report of the "Minli Daily". It claimed that during the contact with Fang Jianxiong, he received many times of strong support for the revolution. When it came to visiting the house for the first time, Fang Jianxiong was able to come up with five things when he was a stranger.

Regarding Wan Dayang's sponsorship of the revolution, Wu Yanggu said in the article: I could feel Fang Jun's enthusiasm for the revolution, but at that time, Brother Fang was burdened by his family and could not go to the revolution in person. The Xiong tribe in Anqing was doing justice, and Fang Jun happened to be there.

However, there were only a few hundred of them, and they were among tens of thousands of Qing troops. How could they help Zhou to suppress the revolution? On the contrary, it was Fang Jun's mediation, and hundreds of revolutionary comrades were rescued. Today, there are still hundreds of people serving in the Anhui army.

I wonder where the news of "Minlibao" came from? Chen Jun in Shanghai wanted to raise funds for the Guangzhou cause, so I went to Wuhu with him in person, and got 20,000 yuan and a batch of guns and ammunition. The emperor in the rear was afraid that transportation would be inconvenient, so he sent them to Shanghai on his behalf

Above. The events at that time were vivid in my mind, and Fang Jun was deeply touched by his enthusiasm for the revolution. Thinking about it, Chen Jun had forgotten about it!

The day after the Wuchang uprising, Fang Jun launched an uprising in Anqing. This was the result of his many years of running the new army and his headquarters. Later I learned that even if there was no incident in Wuchang, Fang Jun would still have uprising. Compared with the hasty and chaotic Wuchang uprising, Anqing

The revolution can be said to have been fought without bloodshed, and this was due to Fang Jun's planning. Comrades from the Anqing Alliance and the Liberation Association did not participate in the uprising, but they were reused afterwards. Fang Jun entrusted him with the important task of the Northern Expedition. However, the Anhui comrades conspired with the comrades sent by Chen Jun in Shanghai to

In order to seize Hefei, he set up another military governor to replace Fang Jun. After Yu's hard persuasion failed, the rear commander went to Hefei and resolved the matter in a snap. All he could do was send all the comrades away and pay for their travel expenses. I deeply admired Fang Jun's benevolent act.

Here are some suggestions for staying in Hefei and serving your hometown.

An article by Wu Yanggu came out, and people from all walks of life were in an uproar. Others said that Fang Jianxiong did not count. Wu Yanggu is a veteran revolutionary party. He said good things about Fang Jianxiong, so it must be true. Originally, "Everything in the Market" reported

At once

The atmosphere was already chaotic. Wu Yanggu jumped out to speak out of righteous indignation and immediately put the Minli Daily in an embarrassing situation. The report in "Business Times" naturally attracted the attention of the readers.

.

………………

"Yingshi, why did the Minli Daily publish an article attacking Fang Fuguo?" Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing, who rushed to Shanghai from Nanjing, saw Sun and Chen Qimei and immediately asked about the matter. In addition to Sun, there was also his consultant Inu Yang.

Yi and Sun glanced at Chen Qimei silently, showing no intention of speaking.

"Newspapers have freedom of press. Fang Fuguo openly opposed the provisional government's ambition. Why can't it be exposed? After the liberation of Shanghai, Fang Fuguo's soldiers still occupy the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau. What is their purpose? Isn't it just for arms? He only started the incident a few days ago.

Huh? So many troops have been formed. If this person is not dealt with early, he will definitely become my ally.

It's a serious problem. I asked newspapers to report his misdeeds, and it's not nonsense. When the Anhui army was in Hanyang, it was always a fact that they didn't listen to Keqiang's deployment, right?" Chen Qimei argued with her neck crouched, her fair face flushed,

His breathing was not so smooth. Huang Keqiang was mentioned in these words. Huang, who wanted to say something, immediately lost his words.

"Confused! Who is Fang Fuguo? He recovered the entire Shanghai-Nanjing Line, held Hanyang, raided northern Anhui, fought fiercely on the Beijing-Hankou Line, and recovered Hankou. Without him at the front, we would have been able to bargain with Yuan Shikai.

Money? Take 10,000 steps back. Fang Fuguo has contributed to the revolution and will be kind to the alliance. Anyone can attack him, but not you Chen Yingshi!" Song Jiaoren stuttered a little. The more he spoke, the more excited he was. He moved his fingers randomly and almost poked Chen Qimei's nose.

superior.

"Okay, there's no need to argue. What happened has already happened. Let's find a way to make up for it. And that "Everywhere in the Market", go find out what's going on?" Sun spoke in time, interrupting the fierce situation that might break out.

debate.

"The Hubei representative received a telegram from Wuchang saying that the Hubei military government will not join the interim government for the time being. Li Yuanhong has also changed his mind!" Huang Xing's words made Sun look gloomy and frown: "The interim government is about to be formally established, and we must obtain Fang Fuguo's approval as soon as possible.

understanding."

"I think it will be difficult for Fang Jianxiong to reach an agreement with the Alliance. According to the Japanese who participated in the war in Hanyang, Fang Fuguo's troops were very unfriendly to Brother Keqiang and even beat Keqiang's son." Inu Yangyi said calmly.

, Huang Xing's face condensed and he said: "The dog is responsible for his own fault and cannot blame others."

"The key now is those people from the Guangfuhui Association. Tao will not miss the opportunity to put a shit basin on Mr. Zhang, and Madman Zhang!" Chen Qimei hurriedly raised this question. Sun's face darkened and he didn't speak. He was doused in the spring breeze when he was proud.

It's really uncomfortable to have a ladle of cold water on your face.

"It's better that I go to Hanyang and try to resolve this grudge. After all, Fang Fuguo has no intention of targeting Mr. Sun. He just expressed his concerns about the interim government." Song Jiaoren volunteered, and Chen Qimei's eyes rolled around and she said.

: "No, if Brother Yufu goes away, isn't he bowing to the man named Fang? I think we still have to rely on public opinion, at least to regain the momentum."

"Ignoring Fang Fuguo for now, the key issue now is the provisional government. Fang Fuguo and Yuan Shikai should have reached a compromise. This is a betrayal of the revolution! Minlibao can make some articles around this, and we must continue to hold high the banner of the Northern Expedition. In this way

Only by uniting the people can we unite the people. But for the Northern Expedition, we need an army and pay. In the final analysis, it is still a financial issue." Huang Xing was talking to Xini beside him, but he raised another troublesome issue.

"For the time being, we can only rely on borrowing. At present, the European and American powers only recognize Yuan Shikai, so it is difficult to discuss the matter of borrowing." Speaking of this, Sun's face became a little sad, and he habitually turned his head to look at Inukai Yi.

"Yixian! I will try my best!" Quan Yangyi answered simply. Whether it succeeds or not is another matter. His attitude was very good.

……………………

In Hanyang, Li Yuanhong brought Tang Hualong, Sun Wu and others to Fang Jianxiong's headquarters again. The vice president's big cake had an effect. Although he was reluctant to give up the little remaining territory, he thought that Fang Jianxiong's tens of thousands of tigers and wolves were on the other side.

, Li Yuanhong could only hold his nose and admit it. Fang Jianxiong didn't seem to be a patient person. The Beiyang Army continued to fight, the British were hard-pressed, and the Nanjing Provisional Government had not yet been born and it was clear that it did not intend to recognize it.

One thing Minlibao said is right. This guy is indeed a reactionary warlord! Opposing the provisional government is blatantly standing against the people. But why are so many people willing to take refuge with him?

No one can understand Li Yuanhong's helplessness. He is also a member of the Revolutionary Party. The Hubei gang can play with it and secure the position of governor in a few clicks. As for Fang Jianxiong, this guy won't play any tricks with you.

But there is no room for resistance in front of him. To put it bluntly, it can be said in two words: "strength". He has tens of thousands of elite soldiers and will knock down whoever he hits. Fang Jianxiong doesn't need to play tricks with you.

Li Yuanhong can be sure that if he doesn't accept Fang Jianxiong's tactics, sooner or later he will lead his troops across the river to ask for an explanation. What kind of strength does the Hubei military government have at the moment? With more than 10,000 recruits, the rebellious navy is now using Fang Jianxiong's supplies.

How can you, Li Yuanhong, listen to you, Li Yuanhong? The natural barrier of the Yangtze River is called a bird without a navy? The cannon on Guishan Mountain can destroy the governor's office.

In Fang Jianxiong's headquarters, a formation was set up. The borrowed desks from the school were lined up and covered with gray cloth to form a conference room. Military and political officials from Hubei and Anhui gathered together and sat on both sides. Sitting at the top was

Fang Jianxiong, strangely reminds me of the underworld drinking tea and talking about numbers. In some movies, the boss slaps the table and stands up, with one leg on the stool. The posture is very awkward!

"Everyone, one is the primary righteousness and the other is the secondary righteousness. Today's decision to unify the military and political affairs is indeed a major event today." Sun Baoqi presided over the meeting, with a proud look, which was a bit like an old tree sprouting new buds.

This was a successful negotiation. Under the premise of a military leader, Hubei followed Anhui's example and implemented the separation of military and political affairs. The military government was abolished and the Hubei People's Government was established. The Hubei Military Region and the Anhui Military Region were established, and the armies of the two provinces were reorganized and placed under one flag.

The first item of negotiation was the army. There were eight associations in Hubei, and the Beiyang Army had beaten them to the bone. Now there are only six associations left, with a total of 15,000 people. The original

The two artillery teams are also in Hanyang now. (To be continued)
