Beiyang reactionaries

"Cai E's first army of the national defense army, except for the first echelon regiment currently in Syria, the rest of the main force has come."

Duan Xun did not hide.

Tell Yang Wei directly that the main force of Cai E's national defense army has come to Naxi.Yang Wei looked up at Duan Xun and asked with a smile, "Then you are still so leisurely?"

"What if you come?"

Duan Xun smiled.

Then he said confidently: "If I didn't want to fight with the National Defense Army, Cai E's army would have driven them out of Sichuan a long time ago. Cai E is famous, you really think I'm afraid of him. Come here, If Cai E really dared to attack me in Naxi, I would definitely let him hit his head and bleed. If he refused to let me go and make me angry, I might really destroy Cai E’s Yunnan army. Mr. Yang, I always I feel like you underestimate me. I'm not bragging. If you fight head-on one-on-one, even the Beiyang army's lineage troops adapted from the original Beiyang Six Towns, I don't fear them at all. If you fight head-on, they are really not my opponents. What's more Not to mention the Yunnan army led by Cai E."

"Cai E? Do you think I really care about his personality. What I'm thinking about is how to fight and to what extent is best for me in the current situation."

Yang Wei looked at Duan Xun and suddenly felt that Duan Xun was very mysterious.

Since the outbreak of the War to Protect the Nation, there have not been many decisive wars.The Beiyang Army didn't take advantage of it either.In the first battle, Wu Xiangzhen's Fourth Mixed Brigade was defeated and lost Syria.About 20 days ago, Zhang Jingyao and Xiong Xiangsheng were also defeated.Zhang Jingyao left Luzhou in embarrassment, and Xiong Xiangsheng was directly driven away by Duan Xun.

And just a few days ago, Ma Jizeng, the commander-in-chief of the Beiyang Army's first route to rebel against the army, died, and the situation in Hunan changed drastically.

After the outbreak of the War to Protect the Nation, the only bright spot on the Beiyang Army's side was fought by Duan Xun.One time it wiped out a brigade left in Naxi by the Second Division of the Sichuan Army, and the other time it was the Naxi defense battle ten days ago, which even wiped out a detachment of the Yunnan Army.

Strong.

It's luck to win once.Is it luck to win twice?

Perhaps Duan Xun's army is really strong.

"Don't talk about that. No matter how Cai E attacks me here, my Luzhou is as stable as a rock. Mr. Yang, I'm here today to ask, how about what I wrote?"

Duan Xun wanted to hear Yang Wei's opinion.

How about your own political platform?Can you convince people like Yang Wei to join your camp?

Yang Wei was silent for a while, before he said, "General Duan, did you really write this?"

61 Yang Wei

"General Duan, these things were really written by General Duan?"

"Why, you don't look like me?"

"Yes."

Yang Wei nodded curtly.

Then he stared at Duan Xun and said, "General Duan, I have a deep understanding of Mr. Sun's Three People's Principles here. I even feel that I have a better understanding of the Three People's Principles than Mr. Sun himself."

"What's so strange about that."

Duan Xun smiled and said: "Although Mr. Zhongshan proposed the Three Principles of the People, it does not mean that others cannot study the Three Principles of the People, and others cannot surpass him. Han Yu's "Teacher Theory" has said that disciples do not have to be inferior to teachers. Mr. Zhongshan is the first A person who proposed the Three People's Principles, but he never said in detail how to realize the Three People's Principles. Even you revolutionaries think that the national revolution has been completed after the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Absurd."

"Mr. Yang, you should know. The European War broke out, Japan declared war on Germany, then defeated the German army in Shandong, occupied the Jiaodong Peninsula, and completely ignored our Chinese government. National revolution, haha. Go and see how much China has Indemnity, look at the concessions in those big cities in China, and then look at these foreigners fighting on our land at will, and foreign warships sailing wantonly on the Yangtze River in China. Look at our government, as long as you encounter foreigners Everyone is more scared and nervous than anyone else. Even if they are foreigners and beggars, our government officials have to take care of them carefully. Is this what we want for the national revolution?"

"I won't talk about far away, just talk about Sichuan. Chongqing was opened as a port, and tariffs increased sharply. But the tariffs are in the hands of the British, and the customs are managed by them. Does this mean that we have completed the national revolution?"

Listening to Duan Xun's words, Yang Wei immediately fell silent.

very normal.

Since the opening of Chongqing, there have been more and more foreigners here.

No matter how big things are for the Chinese, they are still small things, and no matter how small things are for foreigners, they are still big things.As long as foreigners are involved, the entire government is tense.Of course, if it is to show the hospitality of the Chinese people, to show that China is a civilized country, and for the sake of one's own face, then don't say anything.At most, it means that the Chinese government slaps a swollen face to pretend to be fat.

But now China is so tense, not because of swollen faces to pretend to be fat, but because of fear.It is really afraid of foreigners, afraid of what will happen to these foreigners in China, and afraid of any diplomatic incidents, that's why it is like this.

shame.

"Let's talk about civil rights. Republic, what is a republic. Your revolutionary party only knows what a republic is, but do you know what a republic is? I don't think you even know it yourself. Mr. Zhongshan is the interim president in Nanjing. You The revolutionaries chose the presidential system. I heard that during the meeting, Zhang Jingjiang and Chen Qimei all supported Mr. Sun Yat-sen, thinking that what China needs now is centralization, so that authority can be maintained. In fact, I very much agree with this point. China is China, and foreign countries are foreign countries. Everyone has different cultures and development conditions. It is the most naive thing to want to directly transplant everything from foreign countries to China. I agree with the presidential system very much.”

"But what? When you let Yuan Gongbao (Yuan Shikai) become the president, you will have a cabinet system again. Do you really support the republic, or do you want to use the republic to fight for power and profit?"

"Civil rights, civil rights. The Revolutionary Party itself doesn't know what civil rights are, what is a republic, and what qualifications it has to shout for a republic every day. The Revolutionary Party has this time, so it is better to build more schools in China and develop education. Only when education is successful, everyone will Know what is your own interest. When Chinese people know what belongs to their own rights and are willing to protect their own interests, it is the time when China's civil rights are successful."

Duan Xun is not a soldier at this time, he is also eloquent in the face of theoretical issues.

Yang Wei listened quietly.Some things Duan Xun wrote in the book, and some things Duan Xun said for the first time.That's why Yang Wei listened carefully.Hearing this, Yang Wei was a little surprised.

The young general in front of him indeed has a deep understanding of the Three People's Principles, including the current Chinese issues, which is completely different from the generals of the Beiyang Army in Yang Wei's mind.

"Let's talk about people's livelihood. Mr. Sun Yat-sen said that about equalizing land rights. But Mr. Zhongshan, have you ever thought about how to equalize land rights, who should equalize land rights, and what method should be used to equalize land rights. What should be done in the countryside and what should be done in the cities How. What advantages does China have, what disadvantages does China have, and how should China develop its economy. He has no plan at all. You revolutionaries are even more naive to think that as long as the Manchu Qing is overthrown, China’s good days will come, and the Chinese people will able to eat and drink well.”

"Your revolutionary party is more or less from the background of local gentry, and most of them are from landlords with land in their families. Equalization of land rights is to take out the land of the landlords and share it equally. How many people in your revolutionary party agree to the equal distribution of land rights? That means taking out your own land. I remember that after the Gongjinhui and the Restoration Society left the Tongmenghui, they immediately changed the sentence of equal land rights. Why? It’s not because they disagreed with this.”

"If there is no plan, don't talk about it. Mr. Zhongshan can say whatever he wants. When Mr. Zhongshan took office in Nanjing, he said that the establishment of the Republic of China required compulsory education. How many people cheered at that time, thinking that he was a great man from heaven, because Mr. Zhongshan valued education so much Running around and cheering. But isn’t this just a typical nonsense? Where do the schools for compulsory education come from? Where do teachers for compulsory education come from? Where does the funding for compulsory education come from? Let their children go to school? China’s current patriarchal situation is so serious, how many people believe in the saying that women’s ignorance is virtue, how to let those girls go to school? Have you ever considered these things?”

"Let's talk about Mr. Zhongshan's railway map. You know what it's called. It's a typical paper. Mr. Zhongshan has visited the local area and knows that the places he drew are mountains, water, stones, and sand. .Each different terrain, different soil conditions, requires different construction techniques. Mr. Zhongshan draws on the map very casually, but can this be successful?"

Duan Xun said a lot, but Yang Wei was silent.

Because Yang Wei has worked in the front line.There are indeed problems with many of Sun Yat-sen's plans, and the problems are very serious.But he has never criticized Duan Xun like this one by one.

Duan Xun almost criticized many theories and policies of the Revolutionary Party over the years as useless.

"Mr. Yang, I don't know what your revolutionary party is like. But what I want to say is that planning, planning, as the saying goes, people have short-term worries without long-term considerations. Whether it is war or construction, planning is required, and the ultimate plan is needed. Meticulous planning. During the revolution, your revolutionary party likes to use a hammer here and there, and there is no plan at all. It is the same after the establishment of the Republic of China.”

"The purpose of Song Jiaoren's establishment of the Kuomintang was not to continue the revolutionary ideals of your revolutionary party, nor to implement your revolutionary ideas, nor to realize the Three People's Principles. Song Jiaoren was actively running around to establish the Kuomintang, just to win parliamentary seats. Take down government power and complete his so-called parliamentary politics. For this, you don’t care whether they agree with your ideas, or whether this person is a Manchu Qing official who opposed the revolution, or a high-ranking Beiyang Army, as long as you are willing to join the Kuomintang, as long as you Support the Kuomintang to win enough congressional seats, and then absorb them all. Could it be that your Kuomintang is a dumping ground for garbage, and everyone wants it?"

"The failure of your so-called second revolution is inevitable. As the leaders of the Kuomintang, Sun Yat-sen and Huang Xing, no one listened to what they said. Look at how many people Song Jiaoren brought into the Kuomintang. When things happen, those people will think that they are the Kuomintang. If things are not good, they will leave immediately."

"Mr. Yang, I am a soldier. What my army needs are elite soldiers and strong generals, because no matter how many mobs there are, they are no match for elite soldiers. Your Kuomintang, or the earlier Tongmenghui, is just mobs in my eyes. If I set up a party, then it must be an elite soldier.”

Duan Xun said everything he wanted to say.

Yang Wei stood there in a daze, his face constantly changing.But suddenly his face changed, and he said: "General Duan, you, you want to create a party yourself?"

Horrified.

In the past, Duan Xun told Yang Wei that his goal was to become the president in the future.At that time Yang Wei just took it as a joke.In other words, Yang Wei believes that Duan Xun's biggest idea should be to become a warlord, and become a great warlord in the future.Maybe it would be nice to end up in a position like Chief of the War Department.

But suddenly Yang Wei felt that Duan Xun's ambition far exceeded his imagination.The great president, perhaps Duan Xun's goal is really to be a great president.

In an instant, Yang Wei looked at the book in his hand.

In the back of this book, Duan Xun wrote a lot.In particular, the following "National Building Strategy" describes a series of processes in which China transformed from a military country to a republic.

At that time, Yang Wei was only considering the feasibility of this idea.

But now Yang Wei suddenly thought of it.This is not some speculation or idea of ​​Duan Xun, this is completely the policy program of the young general in front of him.Thinking about it this way, Yang Wei looked at Duan Xun completely differently.
