Beiyang reactionaries

Who dares to say in these years that they want to get back their customs rights with these world powers.

Unless you want to die.

After all, it involves hundreds of millions of funds, how can Western countries let go of the interests of customs.But Duan Xun dared to think about it, and even said that it would be completed within five years.How courageous this must be.But at the same time, Hu Jingyi suddenly realized something.That is, his structure is still much worse than that of Duan Xun.

See what Duan Xun thinks and considers.

Duan Xun is just a local warlord now, but he is thinking about the stability of the frontier, and he wants to set up troops to station in Yulin to deter the Mongolian banners.What is considered is the development of the entire country of China, and what is considered is how to fight for China's interests and recover customs rights.Look beyond the southwest and northwest, and consider the national affairs.

In comparison, these days I only consider my own interests, as well as the affairs of Shaanxi.

For a moment, Duan Xun's eyes were a little different.

"Mr. Hu, why did you join the revolution?"

"Expel the Tartars, restore China, establish the Republic of China, and equalize land rights."

Hu Jingyi said it without thinking.

Duan Xun heard that Hu Jingyi was talking about Sun Yat-sen's Three People's Principles, so he smiled and said: "I have read a lot of Mr. Zhongshan's Three People's Principles, as well as other books written by Mr. Zhongshan. The writing is still good, although most of them are just However, I never say these empty words. I don’t talk about the republic, the Republic of China, democracy, and freedom. If I enter Beijing one day, the things I have to do are concise and clear. Unify China's government and military orders, and abolish all unequal treaties signed between China and foreign countries since the Opium War. Including the abolition of indemnities, the cancellation of concessions, the recovery of customs, and the expulsion of foreign troops in China. Any future negotiations between China and foreign countries must be Under equal circumstances. Mr. Hu, do you think what I think is ridiculous."

Hu Jingyi didn't smile.

Because Duan Xun said this with a smile, but combined with what he said earlier, Hu Jingyi knew that this was Duan Xun expressing his ambition to himself.What Duan Xun said today is like a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, which seems to be irrelevant.

But together, Hu Jingyi can understand what Duan Xun means.

ridiculous?

No, not at all funny.

Many people in the late Qing Dynasty had this kind of thinking. When Sun Yat-sen and the others advocated the revolution, didn't they think so.When they chanted revolution, their goal was to build a prosperous and strong China.Sun Yat-sen and the others said the same thing when they talked with their own people.

It's a pity that most of them are just talking about it verbally, because they have no strength themselves and have no chance to practice what they say.

But this person in front of him is different.

This is the overlord of the Southwest, and the most powerful among the rising stars of the Anhui Clan.It is really possible to become Duan Qirui's successor and someone who may enter Beijing.A person like him will definitely display his ambitions and ideas if he has the opportunity.

More importantly, the person in front of him was Duan Xun, a man who dared to fight against the British to quell the Tibetan rebellion and who dared to bombard British warships.

"Our country is poor and weak. If we want to wrestle with those powerful foreign countries, let them recognize that we are also a big country, and want them to abolish those unequal treaties, there is only one way."

"what?"

Hu Jingyi asked Duan Xun involuntarily.

He didn't even think that he was brought in by Duan Xun.In fact, Hu Jingyi has always maintained a high degree of vigilance, but Duan Xun's ambition today shocked Hu Jingyi too much.Therefore, he involuntarily entered Duan Xun's thoughts.

What about China?

Many people have answered this question.

But so many people's answers did not succeed in the end.Therefore, Hu Jingyi really wanted to hear Duan Xun's high opinion.

"Unity. Only when our country is united can we fight against those powerful countries. We have [-] million people and we have such a large country. As long as we are united, no country can bully us. But if we want to make us united, we want Let us work together, and the so-called local autonomy must be criticized. Our country has always been a centralized country, and only by re-establishing the central authority and unifying government and military orders can the government gather the strength of the whole country to deal with Western powers.”

Duan Xun's topic still came back.

But this time Hu Jingyi didn't change the subject, nor did he refute Duan Xun.Instead, he quietly considered what Duan Xun said.Hu Jingyi understood what Duan Xun meant, and what Hu Jingyi was thinking about was whether what Duan Xun said was correct.

"Mr. Hu, my goal is to bring true independence to our nation. Chinese people decide their own affairs. But this road is extremely difficult and dangerous, because the strength of Western powers far exceeds ours. But I Think of the real Chinese, the real Chinese soldiers will not be afraid of these things, and will not be afraid of sacrifice. Mr. Hu, I sincerely invite Mr. Hu to join me in fighting for the true independence of the nation.”

Although Hu Jingyi is well-known in Shaanxi, he is very young.When he participated in the Revolution of 19, Hu Jingyi was only 27 years old, and Hu Jingyi is still less than [-] years old now.But Hu Jingyi is not one of those fledgling, passionate young students.

He has experienced a lot since the Revolution of [-].

So Duan Xun didn't tell him about the title of the song, or talk about republic, because Hu Jingyi doesn't necessarily support the so-called republic idea that is common at present.Duan Xun talked about real things, talking about nationalism.

Tell Hu Jingyi how to achieve national independence and how to get rid of the control of these powerful countries on China.

"General Duan, I want to go back and think about it."

"Please."

Duan Xun didn't force it.

Because people like Hu Jingyi have their own ideas.If he wanted to understand, he would definitely come to find Duan Xun.If you can't figure it out, it's useless for Duan Xun to stay.

209 Contradictions between Guangdong and Guangxi

"Zhong Yuan (Deng Keng), what do you think?"

Zhangzhou.

During the Dharma War, the main force on the southern side was the troops from Guangdong and Guangxi.Lu Rongting's troops chose to enter Hunan to support the Hunan Army. The Guangdong and Guangxi troops that entered Hunan were basically Lu Rongting's people.At that time, Lu Rongting and Sun Yat-sen were in an alliance, and the relationship between the two parties had been dirty from the beginning.Moreover, Sun Yat-sen held the navy at the time, which was also a great threat to Lu Rongting.So Lu Rongting took a step back and handed over the [-] battalions of the Provincial Defense Force under the then Governor of Guangdong Zhu Qinglan to the command of Chen Jiongming.

This force was named "Aiding Fujian and Guangdong Army".

It was also the origin of the Cantonese Army later.

Chen Jiongming led the [-] battalions into Fujian and fought against Fujian Governor Li Houji.The army led by Chen Jiongming was very brave. In addition, Xu Chongzhi himself had made a revolution in Fujian, and many of the Fujian army were Xu Chongzhi's subordinates.Therefore, Li Houji's troops were defeated in several battles in Fujian.

The army can also be regarded as a foothold in Fujian, controlling the southern Fujian region.

At this time, the Guangdong Army had two armies. Chen Jiongming served as the commander-in-chief of the Guangdong Army and concurrently served as the commander of the First Army of the Guangdong Army, and Xu Chongzhi served as the commander of the Second Army of the Guangdong Army.At present, Chen Jiongming is stationed in Zhangzhou, and he is eyeing Guangdong.

Recently, Yang Yongtai under Duan Xun's subordinates has been in frequent contact with Chen Jiongming's people.

Encourage Chen Jiongming to fight back to Guangdong.And Duan Xun said that as long as Chen Jiongming fights back to Guangdong, Duan Xun will support Chen Jiongming in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Hunan.And as long as Chen Jiongming takes Guangdong, he can ask the Beijing government to appoint Chen Jiongming as the governor of Guangdong.

Therefore, Chen Jiongming invited Deng Keng, his chief of staff and his comrade-in-arms for many years, to come and discuss.It is Chen Jiongming's dream to fight back to Guangdong, but of course Chen Jiongming has to choose the best opportunity.

Instead of being led away.

Chen Jiongming is looking for the best opportunity.

"Obviously, the situation in the north is becoming increasingly tense. The conflict between Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, and Cao Kun is getting bigger and bigger, and there may be a war. Duan Qirui is probably under a lot of pressure now, so Duan Xun will encourage us to return to Guangdong. Fight with Lu Rongting. As long as we fight here and contain Lu Rongting, the pressure on Duan Xun in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Hunan will be greatly reduced. He will be able to transfer troops to the north. If not, Lu Rongting is currently on good terms with Cao Kun and Wu Peifu , it is very likely that Duan Xun will be hindered by then."

Deng Keng replied with a smile.

Chen Jiongming also nodded, what Deng Keng said was exactly what he thought.I have no relatives and no reason with Duan Xun, and have never had any contact.Duan Qirui and Sun Yat-sen have always been rivals.Suddenly supporting himself as the governor of Guangdong is not a problem.

Duan Xun was able to let go of the previous hostility and support himself instead, it must be because they needed him.

"It is estimated that the situation in the north has really reached the point of irreconcilability."

Chen Jiongming gloated.
