Beiyang reactionaries

If Cao Kun had to ask Wu Peifu to be obedient, Wu Peifu might be dissatisfied, but he would be obedient in the end.
Cao Kun shook his head when he heard Gao Lingxuan's suggestion.
Cao Kun is not a person of great talent and generality, and he doesn't even have his own political program. He doesn't know how to run an army, how to fight a war, or how to run a country.But Cao Kun sees some things more clearly than anyone else.Relationships between people need to be maintained.Although I have a great kindness to Wu Peifu, Wu Peifu also repaid himself with his performance on the battlefield.
If I force Wu Peifu to change his mind every time, the relationship between myself and Wu Peifu will be divided.
This is not a good thing.
Gao Lingzhen actually guessed that Cao Kun would not adopt the first suggestion, so he immediately said: "Then we can only abandon Liang Shiyi. As long as Cao Gong does not express his position, then there is room for maneuver between Cao Gong and Zhang Zuolin. And as long as Cao Gong does not express his position. I believe that many generals on our side will stand up and condemn Liang Shiyi soon. Liang Shiyi has touched the sensitive Jiaoji Railway issue this time. If no one exposes it, then no matter what the public opinion says, Liang Shiyi’s The positions are all stable. When the financial problems of the Beijing government are resolved, his cabinet prime minister will be considered stable. But now that Governor Wu has revealed this point, Liang Shiyi has no room to retreat."
"Abandon Liang Shiyi?"
Cao Kun frowned.
Things just don't go well.It will be almost five months since the end of the Zhiwan War.But how many things have happened in just five months, the prime minister of the cabinet of the Beijing government has been replaced like a horse on a horse.
If Liang Shiyi steps down again, who will clean up the situation.
"Cao Gong, if the Beijing government continues to be in such turmoil, it will be extremely bad for us. Soon someone will blame us for the Beijing government's turmoil, and many people will criticize us. Cao Gong, don't forget, Duan Hefei (Duan Hefei) Qi Rui) is still in Tianjin. I heard that Xu Shuzheng and Wu Guangxin are currently entering and leaving Duan Hefei's mansion very frequently, and we have to guard against it."
"What shall we do then?"
"Cao Gong, we want to fully take over the Beijing government. The financial problems of the Beijing government must be solved by us, so that we can give full play to the advantages of the Beijing government."
This is what Gao Lingxuan and Wu Peifu have always advocated.
It's just that Cao Kun has been hesitating, especially the financial crisis of the Beijing government has always made Cao Kun flinch.Now Liang Shiyi's position as prime minister of the cabinet is in jeopardy, so Gao Lingxuan persuaded Cao Kun again.
Don't always think about taking advantage, don't always think about how much money you have to subsidize, but you should consider how much the Beijing government can bring you.
Cao Kun did not answer immediately.
Distressed.
Cao Kun really loves money.Cao Kun is now raising so many troops that his money is tight.Even Cao Kun's own troops are currently unable to get a full salary.Cao Kun is currently able to afford half of the military pay.
At this time, let him be responsible for the financial problems of the Beijing government, let himself plug the financial loopholes of the Beijing government, no matter what Cao Kun thinks, he feels sorry for his own pocket.
"General, Premier Liang is asking to see you."
"Liang Shiyi."
Cao Kun frowned and said, "Zeshe (she) (Gao Lingyu), you go and see him, and I'll disappear."
"Yes."
"Everyone go back, don't make random statements when you go out. Don't support Ziyu, and don't refute Ziyu."

"General, this is Wu Peifu's second telegram."
Wu Peifu is a person who bites and never lets go.
On December 1919, 12, Wu Peifu's first telegram caused a sensation throughout the country, and Liang Shiyi was repeatedly labeled as a traitor and traitor.Liang Shiyi went to discuss with Cao Kun, and Cao Kun sent Gao Lingxuan to talk with Liang Shiyi.Although during the conversation, Gao Lingxuan clearly told Liang Shiyi that Cao Kun was also caught off guard by this incident, and is currently considering how to deal with the aftermath.
But Liang Shiyi already smelled something wrong from Cao Kun's attitude towards him.
If Cao Kun really wanted to solve the problem, or if Cao Kun wanted to support Liang Shiyi, then he shouldn't even show his face.Just let Gao Lingxuan represent himself.So Liang Shiyi left Cao Kun's mansion with a lot of worries.
Liang Shiyi is not Zhou Ziqi.
But he will not endure like Zhou Ziqi and finally resign.
On the second day after Wu Peifu bombarded himself, on December 1919, 12, he immediately counterattacked Wu Peifu.Liang Shiyi detailed the financial problems of the Beijing government, and said that the root cause was that the local warlords withheld tax revenue, resulting in no income for the Beijing government.
Then he said that the Beijing government has not been paid normally for four or five months from top to bottom.
Liang Shiyi avoided the serious and took the light.
Play a trick.
And Wu Peifu was not fooled at all. On the afternoon of December 1919, 12, another telegram was sent.
Duan Xun took it over and took a look.Wu Peifu did not answer Liang Shiyi's complaints at all, and said directly that the duty of the prime minister is to solve these problems.It is indeed wrong for the local warlords to withhold taxes at present, but letting you be the prime minister is to change this situation.
And you, Liang Shiyi, don't do serious things, but instead raise money, sell the Jiaoji Railway, sell national sovereignty, and are not qualified to continue to be the Prime Minister of the Cabinet.
Literally beats the heart.
Looking at this telegram, Duan Xun couldn't help being overwhelmed.
Duan Xun was a little confused just putting down the power-on.He said: "What's going on here? Could it be that Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin are really going to turn against each other? Otherwise, what happened to Wu Peifu is more serious than the other."
In history, after the Zhiwan War, the Zhili and the Fengli did not take long to start fighting with sharp contradictions, and the first and second Zhifeng wars were fought one after another.But the situation now is completely different from that time.Although Duan Qirui stepped down, the Anhui warlords are still powerful.
Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin fight?
Are they really afraid that Duan Xun will hit their backs?
In the current situation, Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin should cooperate to fight against Duan Xun and other Anhui warlords.It's not right to fight by yourself.
"General, this matter is not led by Cao Kun. But at this point, Wu Peifu repeatedly criticized Liang Shiyi. I believe Cao Kun can only acquiesce. Cao Kun can't reprimand Wu Peifu now. Zhang Zuolin will definitely think that Cao Kun is behind it. With Kun's handwriting, the conflict between the two will definitely become bigger and bigger."
Yang Yongtai smiled slightly.
It is really a change that many people did not expect.
It was good.
Duan Xun believes that with Liang Shiyi sitting in Beijing, the Beijing government will be stable for at least a few months.But I didn't expect that Liang Shiyi had only been the prime minister for half a month before such a thing happened.
"Wu Peifu doesn't know how to be a human being either. You can just criticize Liang Shiyi well, and criticize the local warlord's interception of tax revenue during the power-on. This is not setting up an opponent for yourself."
Duan Xun also shook his head.
Wu Peifu's personal integrity is good, and his ability to lead troops is stronger.But it was too lofty, this second telegram scolded all the warlords across the country.Duan Xun and these Anhui warlords are fine, everyone is an enemy to begin with.
However, there were not one or two of their direct warlords, and these people must have cursed Wu Peifu in their hearts for being ungrateful.For example, Li Chun, Chen Guangyuan, and even Cao Kun's generals would probably scold Wu Peifu.
It is not something that local warlords withhold tax revenues today, and everyone knows it well.In order to keep his prime minister, Liang Shiyi said that these are all right. You are also the governor of Shandong and a local warlord. If you come out and say these problems, it will be a big problem.
"Forget it, do what you like. Let's continue our meeting."
The chaos in the Beijing government has made Duan Xun numb.
However, the chaos of the Beijing government is of great benefit to Duan Xun.Five months after the end of the Zhiwan War, Duan Xun originally thought that Cao Kun would use the Beijing government to attack Duan Xun.
