The last fetters of the Zongshe Party were lifted, and Empress Dowager Longyu had no choice but to let Yuan Shikai manipulate her. Soon Lao Yuan concocted the conditions for preferential treatment to the Manchu royal family and handed them over to the south for negotiation. Qiao Yu was in Sichuan and quickly obtained the information.
Under the rule of the Manchus, China was completely overtaken by the West and reduced to nothing more than a mere fish. The Manchus' culpability is unspeakably great.
Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to give preferential treatment to the Manchu royal family. They were not worthy at all. However, his father Qiao Guangyuan's words dispelled Qiao Yu's idea of stopping the matter. As Qiao Yu settled down in Sichuan, the Qiao family also moved from Chongqing.
After moving to Sichuan, Qiao Guangyuan, Mrs. Bai, and Qiao Cheng's family all arrived in Chengdu before the Chinese New Year.
The old man Qiao Guangyuan saw the order in Sichuan and was very satisfied with his son's ability. However, the old man heard Qiao Yu's remarks about preferential treatment to the Qing court, so the old man felt it was necessary to watch it on demand.
"Shun Qing, why do you think Yuan Shikai gave preferential treatment to the Manchu royal family?"
"It's nothing more than dressing up as a loyal minister. However, the Qing emperor was forced to abdicate by him. It's really artificial and useless to pose like this. Moreover, the current financial expenditure is not enough, and he has to go to foreign countries.
To borrow money from others and give preferential treatment to the Qing court is a huge burden, so why not spend millions of taels of silver every year!"
Qiao Guangyuan sighed slightly: "Shun Qing, you see some things quite clearly, such as Hanyang Iron Works, but there are some things you are still not experienced enough. Yuan Shikai still has a reputation for being appeasement, but in my opinion he is worried about the three northeastern provinces
Ah, this method of preferential treatment for cleaning up the house is equivalent to using money to buy the Manchu nobles. As the saying goes, those who take advantage of others will not take risks!"
"Children of the Eight Banners? What else can they do? They are just a bunch of incompetent people, playing the piano and singing!"
"Hey, the children of the Eight Banners are useless, but aren't there still foreigners? When I was an official in Beijing, everyone from princes and bachelors to traffickers and foot soldiers was afraid of foreigners. If a foreigner supports one or two clan members, in
If there is a commotion everywhere, even if the world is not in chaos, the three eastern provinces will be unstable, right?"
When Qiao Yu heard this, he suddenly realized why he had fallen into a dead end on this issue. Didn't a puppet Manchukuo appear in later generations? There are still any ideas for the founding of the country with eighteen provinces. If Japan now robs the little emperor,
If we go to the Northeast, we might be able to create a Manchukuo immediately. In that case, it would be worthwhile for Lao Yuan to spend the money to stabilize the Northeast!
"Dad, your advice to me is like clearing the clouds and seeing the sun. But in my opinion, the Eight Banners disciples are far from successful. If they dare to rebel, they will be dealt with immediately. These Eight Banners disciples have a lot of property.
It is said that most of the real estate in Beijing is in their hands. This is a place where every inch of land is very valuable. I sold the entire city of Chengdu for several million yuan. If Lao Yuan had made the move, it would have been easy to get tens of millions. With that,
Why should we borrow this money from foreigners?"
A kind smile appeared on Qiao Guangyuan's face: "San'er, this is how courageous you are as a young man. I didn't expect you to take advantage of the chaos to attack Li Jin and Yan Zheng. But now that the benefits have emerged, the people of Sichuan suddenly stood up.
I feel ashamed to be on your side, but don’t forget that Lao Yuan has passed his destiny. He is old and seeking stability, and he no longer has the energy to carry out drastic reforms. So once Lao Yuan really
Being a president is just a matter of maintenance!"
Qiao Guangyuan was also full of emotions at this time. The old gang would eventually retreat. Haven't the young people grown up? So did he. Fortunately, his three sons were all mature, so he didn't have to worry too much. But
I still have to warn: "Shun Qing, but don't think that the tiger will stop biting when it gets old. Old Yuan now has many claws and claws. Whoever dances the most happily will be hit by Old Yuan. You have been doing this these days.
It’s still too big, and it will inevitably attract Lao Yuan’s attention! I wonder if you have any solutions?”….
When Qiao Yu heard such questions, he was immediately stunned. The reason why he opened fire on Sun Wen was also to hand over his name to Lao Yuan. I helped you deal with your biggest enemy. When you rewarded me, didn't you have one of your own?
Share?
However, when Dad reminded Qiao Yu, he suddenly remembered that after Sun Wen handed over the president, his power was very limited. Local powerful factions like his own had become the biggest threat to Lao Yuan. Lao Yuan would definitely do his best to suppress it, and maybe even
If a battle breaks out, will you and Lao Yuan fight to the death once the battle breaks out?
Even if he can win, if he defeats Lao Yuan, China will inevitably fall into chaos. Will he have enough power to stabilize China's situation at that time? Qiao Yu carefully weighed it, and with the current power in Sichuan, there is no such possibility.
It can sweep the world, but it is inevitable to rely on the old bureaucracy left over from the Manchu Qing Dynasty to maintain its rule. Once it reaches this point, it will be copying the footsteps of Yuan Shikai, Duan Qirui, Zhang Zuolin, including the disciples of Sun Wen in the later period, and it cannot do anything internally.
Complete reform will make it impossible to strive for sovereignty from the outside world.
I'm afraid that by then it will really be the time for me to perish. Could it be that I just surrendered when Lao Yuan called me? It's obviously not possible. Thinking of the waves of annoyance here, I feel helpless. How can I divert Lao Yuan's attention?
Well, now we can rely on Sun Wen, but what’s the next step? Can Tao Chengzhang do it?
"Shun Qing, I know what you mean by alliance with Tao Chengzhang and others is that you hope that this alliance can protect you from wind and rain, but haven't you thought that it will be self-defeating? Li Yuanhong, Zhang Jian and others in this alliance are all bureaucrats
They may have secretly hooked up with Lao Yuan, and Tao Chengzhang's foundation is not stable, so in this alliance, you will become the key to Lao Yuan's attack!"
After his father said these few words, Qiao Yu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He actually designed himself into it. Isn't this terrible? A layer of fine cold sweat broke out on his forehead!
"Dad, you are very knowledgeable, please show me the way!"
Qiao Guangyuan smiled slightly: "I told you a long time ago not to underestimate Yuan Shikai. Now you know that the situation is not good. There is only one person in the world who can be the leader for you. This person is above you and has a deep understanding of military strategy.
Moreover, he has a strong army in his hands, is located on the border and is watching with eager eyes, and he has also formed his own political party!"
After Qiao Guangyuan said a few words, Qiao Yu instantly knew who his father was talking about. It was Cai E, the governor of Yunnan who had a previous conflict with him. Since Cai E took control of Yunnan, he has also actively reformed bad governance, rectified officialdom, and expanded
The army, and continues to develop power in surrounding provinces, and Cai E also has an advantage that Qiao Yu does not have, that is, Cai E's teacher is Liang Qichao, and Liang Qichao's influence must not be underestimated. This influence on the master-disciple collaboration is definitely not small, Cai E
Following the Fine Gael Party, the United Republican Party was formed, and its political ambitions were undoubtedly revealed.
"Dad, I thought about it, Yunnan is barren after all. Although Lao Yuan is afraid of Cai E, it seems that even if he holds Cai E up, he will not be able to block my gun!"
"This is not what I can think of. You kid has a flexible mind. You can think of how to pretend to be a bear!" After speaking, Mr. Qiao picked up the wine glass and took a sip. He seemed extremely comfortable. Qiao Yu's heart couldn't help but churn, proving himself.
It is easier to be stronger than others, but how to prove that you are weaker than others?
After thinking about it, Qiao Yu finally realized that the upcoming Guizhou Rebellion was the best opportunity. If he suffered some losses on the battlefield, wouldn't he be worse than Cai E? And once Cai E occupied two provinces, he would wait for Lao Yuan to attack him.
Let's do it! Thinking of this, Qiao Yu suddenly had a plan in mind and relaxed!
