"He really said that?"

"yes!"

"What kind of medicine is sold in Fang Zhangming's gourd?" Yuan Shikai has read countless people, but he can't understand Fang Zida. Especially when Yang Du told him the three suggestions put forward by Fang Zida, he was even more confused. This Fang Zida

Aren't they from Song Jiaoren?

"Plowman, what do you think?" Yuan Shikai asked, looking at Xia Shoutian aside.

"Xizi, do you think he is telling the truth or a lie?" Xia Shoutian asked Yang Du instead of answering directly.

Yang Du thought for a while and said categorically: "There will be no lies, I can say for sure!"

"Okay! Okay!" Xia Shoutian clapped his hands and laughed, turned around and saluted Yuan Shikai: "Congratulations to the President for getting another good general! It seems that Fang Zhangming has the intention to join the President."

"Oh, how do you say this?" Yuan Shikai asked with narrowed eyes.

"Although Fang Zhangming is KMT, if he hadn't been involved in the Huang Keqiang case by mistake, nothing would have happened later. The president should know that, right?" Seeing Yuan Shikai nodding, Xia Shoutian said with a smile: "He has been in the West for a long time.

I joined after returning to China

mt, in the final analysis, he is very different from ordinary party members. Since Fang Zhangming came to Beijing with Song Dunchu, he first made suggestions for the president to deal with the aftermath of the large loan, and then single-handedly convinced everyone in Congress to calm down the storm.

.

Later, he deliberately made friends with Xizi and me, and his intention was obvious. Then he went south and dealt with the rebellion of the Revolutionary Party without mercy. When he arrived at the Eighth Division, he killed Lin Hu and others, which showed his methods. Even though Chen Qimei's death was

not directly from his hand

, cannot be separated from it. Now, these three strategies are proposed to weaken the localities and stabilize the central government. Knowing clearly that behind Xizi is you, the president, he does not avoid it, but talks eloquently. This shows that Fang Zhang will defect to him tomorrow morning.

The heart of a great president.”

Yang Du nodded in agreement: "The farmer is right, I think so too."

Yuan Shikai looked up after a moment and laughed loudly: "So, Fang Zhangming wants to use Xizi's mouth to write to me? To show his sincerity?"

"Exactly!"

Yang Du and Xia Shoutian nodded at the same time and answered in unison.

"Well, this Fang Zhangming has a lot of talent. Although the three strategies he proposed have shortcomings, their intentions are good. Well, Xizi, farmer, you might as well get close to him on weekdays. If he

He does have the idea of ​​​​taking refuge with me, and I will not treat him badly. Such talents can still be used."

"The President is wise!"

Yuan Shikai had a good idea. If Fang Zida could really join him, Beiyang would have a valuable talent. The three major suggestions he put forward, or the three major opinions, touched Yuan Shikai's heart. Even when he thought about it, Fang Zida completely stood by him.

Advice for yourself from his standpoint.

As the head of state, financial problems have troubled him for a long time, otherwise he would not have decided to borrow money from abroad in the first place. If it were not for the support of the large loans for the aftermath, the government would have gone bankrupt long ago, and Beiyang under his control would not have been pacified so quickly.

There are rebellions in various provinces. Although the current finances can still be barely maintained, the borrowings will one day be used up. How to restore the country's financial resources is not a headache for Yuan Shikai.

As for the second article of separation of military and civilian affairs, Yuan Shikai was a little entangled in his heart. As the leader of Beiyang, he was captured by the military and civilians before he consolidated his power, and then sat on the throne of the president. With his start, various parties in the Beiyang system

Each faction also imitated the same, so now there are quite a few powerful factions in the government controlled by the military and civilians, not to mention the governors-general of the southern provinces.

Although this method of integrating military and political affairs has its advantages, its disadvantages have been obvious for a long time. Yuan Shikai was born in Beiyang, how could he not see it? It's just that as a boss of Beiyang, there are some things he can't say and some things he can't do.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to lead the team once people's hearts disperse. If Fang Zi

If Da Zhen could do this, Yuan Shikai would certainly agree with both hands. He wished he could do this. How could he allow others to sleep soundly while lying on the side of the collapse? Yuan Shikai was not Zhao Kuangyin, so he could not implement the strategy of drinking wine to release his military power, but it does not mean that he would not use formulas to achieve this.

Use the knife to do things for yourself, so as to firmly sit on the throne of the center.

Regarding the suggestion of nationalizing the army, Yuan Shikai secretly applauded it. Nowadays, the Beiyang faction in the Republic of China is the dominant one, but the military strength of each faction is not weak, especially the military strength of the southern provinces.

The central government ordered to do things on their own. Let’s take this rebellion as an example. If the revolutionaries hadn’t taken control of the troops, how could such a thing have happened? Then think of Zhang Xun

Yuan Shikai wanted to get angry when he opened his mouth to blackmail the central government with his military numbers and pay. If these bastards didn't make trouble, he would be able to work more comfortably as president in the future. As for the nationalization of the military? In Yuan Shikai's view, as the president, his subordinates

The Beiyang Army is a natural national army. If the local army is abolished and replaced by the national army, doesn't it mean that his Beiyang forces truly unify the whole country?

If Fang Zida knew what Yuan Shikai was thinking now, he would definitely laugh or cry. Although the suggestions he made were not harmful to Yuan Shikai, they were actually considered from the perspective of the country. After all, Yuan Shikai was Yuan Shikai, and the feudal concepts of the family and the world were deeply rooted.

Although he is now the president of the Republic of China, fundamentally speaking, Lao Yuan still thinks of himself as the emperor.

Louis XIV of France once said, "I am the country," and the same is true for Yuan Shikai today. Fang Zida's goal was the future of the country and national reform, but Yuan Shikai misunderstood it as his personal consideration. But then again,

This is not a bad thing. If Fang Zida understood what Yuan Shikai was thinking, he might be glad that he had made an mistake and got an advantage.

Within two days, Zhang Huchen also returned to Beijing, and of course there were two celebrities "Jiang Zhiqing and He Yingqin" who arrived with him. As "minor players" in the rebellion, they certainly could not enjoy the same privileges as Li Liejun, Bai Wenwei,

Regarding the treatment of Chen Jiongming and others, they were not thrown into jail under Fang Zida's instructions, but were temporarily imprisoned in a place to await their release after trial.

The war in the northwest is still going on. Bai Lang's "rebellion army" has swept through most of Shaanxi. Lu Jianzhang, who received the mobilization order, commanded his troops to rush to the northwest without stopping. His forwards soon ran into Bai Lang's troops and carried out several small battles.

A large-scale battle with a winner and a loser.

After Lu Jianzhang arrived at the front line, he mobilized a large army to carry out encirclement and suppression. Bai Lang's army knew that it could not compete, so it decided to deal with it cleverly and adopt a wandering strategy. By October 26, one of Lu Jianzhang's regiments was so eager to perform that they went deep alone and were defeated by Bai Lang.

An ambush was almost set

The whole army was wiped out. After receiving the report of the ambush, Lu Jianzhang was shocked and angry. He immediately led his troops to rescue the siege. Who would have thought that when he arrived at the battlefield, in addition to the thousands of corpses and dozens of remnant soldiers left on the battlefield, Bai Lang

He had already led his troops to evacuate and disappeared without a trace.

This battle was the biggest loss suffered by the Beiyang Army at the hands of Bai Lang. Lu Jianzhang, known as the General of the Imperial Guard, was furious. When the news reached Beijing, the Ministry of War was shocked when the news reached him. Commander-in-chief Duan Qirui immediately reported the situation to the Presidential Palace and

Prime Minister's Office,

No one expected that Bai Lang would be so difficult to crack, and even Lu Jianzhang was defeated. The central government's finances are not sufficient, but Bai Lang's rebellion must be subsided, and he cannot be allowed to become powerful again, otherwise he will not be allowed to become powerful again.

The consequences are unimaginable.

For this reason, Yuan Shikai and Song Jiaoren decided after discussion that the Ministry of War would send additional troops to support and must annihilate the Bailang Army. In this way, the central government managed to squeeze out another million military expenditures and mobilized the First Army and the Second Army from the south.

, they also transferred troops from the north to the west, and together with Lu Jianzhang's troops in the northwest, they assembled nearly 200,000 troops and pressed against Shaanxi with a mighty force, trying to annihilate Bai Lang in one fell swoop.

It seems that the war in the northwest will not stop for a while, but the money in the treasury is decreasing day by day, which makes Song Jiaoren restless. On this day, he suddenly remembered what Fang Zida said some time ago, and he couldn't bear to

I immediately called him and asked him how his plan went.

"It's almost written, but I still plan to think about some details." When they arrived at the Prime Minister's Office, Song Jiaoren asked him immediately when he saw him, and Fang Zida replied with a smile.

"We'll talk about the details later. Let me see how much you have written first." Song Jiaoren said impatiently.

"Okay, I will send someone to your house later." Fang Zida nodded, looking at Song Jiaoren's anxious expression, and asked: "What? Did you run into something difficult?"

"Hey, it's not about the money!" Song Jiaoren spread his hands with a frown on his face: "In the past few months, I have been demolishing the east wall to make up for the west wall. I finally calculated that the money this year will barely be enough, but I didn't expect that the south would just level up with the northwest.

It's a great time when a big mess breaks out. Once the cannon goes off, thousands of taels of gold will flow out like water! I'm so worried!"

"There is no way to do this. You don't need money to fight." Fang Zida comforted him, but at the same time he felt funny in his heart. Only then did he understand why Song Jiaoren was so eager to ask for materials from him. Could it be that Song Jiaoren thought he was a god?

No? I can’t

Even if there is a way to improve the economy, there is no immediate ability to turn stone into gold. However, Zida can also understand Song Jiaoren's difficulties. It is not easy for him to be the prime minister. Once he runs out of money, he may be blamed by all parties.

They will all come in droves.

No matter what, we still have to think of a way. After thinking about it for a while while smoking a cigarette, Fang Zida said: "Brother Dunchu, I have a way to improve the economy here, maybe you can give it a try."

"What method? Come on! Tell me!" Song Jiaoren was immediately overjoyed and said quickly.

"Simple, two words!" Fang Zida took out an eagle from his pocket and slapped it on the table: "Coin!"
