Beiyang reactionaries

"Since this is the case, if I continue to be the prime minister, I will be a fucking human. I will find the president to resign today."

Cao Rui looked down on Jin Yunpeng, and Jin Yunpeng also looked down on Cao Rui.

Cao Kun's three brothers, Jin Yunpeng, looked down upon him.

What are your abilities?

Will there be a war?Will it make money?Will it rule the country?

Especially Cao Kun's two younger brothers.If it weren't for Cao Kun, you two bastards would dare to bluff in front of me.Jin Yunpeng grew up in the military camp, how could he think highly of Cao Kun's two younger brothers.

Cao Rui insulted himself like this, how could Jin Yunpeng bear it.

"Yi Qing, Yi Qing, don't be angry, don't be angry, sit down, sit down."

Seeing that Jin Yunpeng was furious, Cao Kun immediately stood up and went up to hold Jin Yunpeng.Then he turned his head to Cao Rui and said, "Shut your mouth. Now we all need to help each other. What's the point of making such a noise?"

Cao Kun doesn't have any other skills, but his ability to mix mud is still very strong.

Immediately let Jin Yunpeng and Cao Rui sit down.

"Prime Minister Jin, we have also worked hard on the issue of Guan Yu. But the Japanese side strongly supports Duan Xun, so there is basically no room for redemption in this matter. It is estimated that there will be a result within a few days."

Gao Lingfei saw that Jin Yunpeng had returned to normal, so he immediately told Jin Yunpeng.Don't pin your hopes on Cao Kun, this matter is already a fait accompli.

Even Zhang Zuolin is very much in favor of this matter.

Needless to say, other domestic warlords.Even Jiangsu and Jiangxi, who are directly related to Cao Kun, as well as Lu Rongting and the Guangdong Army, who fought life and death in Guangdong before, all have very consistent views.They all agree that Guan Yu should benefit equally, and everyone has a share.

Under such circumstances, there is no way to undo what happened to Guan Yu.Cao Kun didn't dare to oppose too much, because the domestic warlords all supported him, and Cao Kun didn't want to be the first bird and offend them.

"Is there really no other way?"

"No."

Gao Lingxuan answered instead of Cao Kun.

Jin Yunpeng looked at Cao Kun and found that Cao Kun also had a serious face.

Seeing this situation, Jin Yunpeng sighed, and said: "Brother Zhongshan, without Guan Yu, we will not be able to get through at the end of the year. There is no other way now. I think there is only one way to solve the current difficulties."

"You said."

"disarmament."

"disarmament?"

"Yes."

Jin Yunpeng said very seriously: "According to the current situation, the army in each province will be abolished by two levels. The troops under the Ministry of War will be abolished into nine divisions and ten mixed brigades. This will greatly alleviate the military salary crisis."

Cao Kun glanced at the serious Jin Yunpeng, then lowered his head and said nothing.

I don't know what to say in my heart.

This is not like Jin Yunpeng.

Jin Yunpeng is not a pedantic nerd, how could he have such a ridiculous idea.What era is it now? It is the era when a gun is a grass head king.You want to abolish troops, what a joke.

But after all, I don't want to tear my face.

Seeing what Cao Rui wanted to say, Cao Kun immediately stopped Cao Rui.Then he thought for a while and said, "Yi Qing (Jin Yunpeng), I still need to discuss this with Zhang Zuolin (Zhang Zuolin). As long as Zhang is willing to accept the plan to abolish the troops, I agree."

Cao Kun immediately played a Tai Chi.

Jin Yunpeng nodded and said, "Brother Zhongshan, then I'll send a telegram to Fengtian immediately."

"Okay. Yiqing, don't be too anxious. Let's think of a way together and see if there is any other way to solve the current situation."

"Yes."

There was no good solution for Cao Kun, and Jin Yunpeng left disappointed.As soon as Jin Yunpeng left Cao Rui, he immediately said: "Brother, this Jin Yunpeng is shameless. He can't make any money himself, so he dares to say that he wants to lay off troops. Isn't this pure nonsense? When we lay off troops, Duan Xun also lays off Soldiers? Let’s cut our own troops, how will we deal with that Northeast bandit (Zhang Zuolin) and Duan Xun.”

"To shut up."

Cao Kun reprimanded Cao Rui angrily.

"What were you doing just now? Do you know that he is the prime minister, no matter how he is, he is the prime minister, the current prime minister in charge of the Beijing regime, the respect that should be given. If he is because of your words , getting involved with Zhang Zuolin, how unfavorable it is to us, don’t you know? And he is an old man from Duan Hefei after all, if he really can’t do it, and join forces with Duan Degong (Duan Xun), what should we do? You, you , More success than failure. When facing him in the future, you must give him enough face, don't be like today."

"Got it, brother."

Cao Rui nodded.

But he still quickly said: "But, brother. If the Ministry of the Army really can't afford the military salary, we will have to pay several million more military salary every year. Now if Duan Xun wins Guan Yu, his annual income will be tens of millions more .This is how to do?"

Cao Kun also frowned.

Or turned to Gao Lingxuan and said, "What do you think?"

"Cao Gong, there is only one best way."

"what?"

"Borrowing money. Borrowing money from foreign countries and domestic financial institutions. Duan Xun's army is already very strong, and its economic strength is not weaker than ours, or even slightly stronger than ours. Now they have obtained Guan Yu , the strength will develop by leaps and bounds. If we want to compete against Duan Xun, we can only borrow money from others."

Cao Kun sighed.

Since the Revolution of [-], the central government has been inseparable from this cycle.If you have no money, you can only borrow money from foreign countries, and you can only borrow money from domestic banks.In order to borrow money, they mortgage everything that can be mortgaged to foreigners or domestic banks, and then they are criticized by public opinion.From Yuan Shikai to Duan Qirui, who is not like this.

Do you want to go this way yourself?

But yes.

For the Beijing government, apart from this method, there is no other way to raise funds quickly.

The advantage of the Beijing government is that the Beijing government is a legitimate central government.But the Beijing government also has disadvantages.The biggest disadvantage is that it has to bear all the current foreign debts of the Beijing government and all the treaties signed by the Beijing government before.

There are pros and cons.

"Is Yi Qing (Jin Yunpeng) really bad?"

"Mr. Cao, although Jin Yunpeng is currently the most suitable candidate for the Prime Minister, he can't make money at all. After all, Jin Yunpeng is a soldier, and these people have always been in the army. They have no experience or ability in this area. Short There is simply no way within time. Jin Yunpeng cannot maintain the current cabinet without money, and it is only a matter of time before Jin Yunpeng’s cabinet falls. We must find someone who can help us raise funds.”

"Then find Liang Caishen (Liang Shiyi)."

Cao Kun immediately said Liang Shiyi's name.

As long as the current Beiyang government talks about who has the best ability to make money, the first thing that comes to mind is Liang Shiyi.The leader of the old transportation department is indeed very good at borrowing money.
