Beiyang reactionaries

So he thought about it and recommended Kang Xinru.

This is Duan Xun's direct descendant, who has served as the president of the Southwest Commercial Bank, which is currently the Shanghai Branch of the Commercial Bank of China, for many years.As a representative of Duan Xun, he walked in Shanghai's financial and business circles.

Young but brilliant.

Many things have been handled very well over the years.

"Yes. Prime Minister, Kang Xinru is talented and experienced, but the important thing is that his rank is not high. Moreover, he is in charge of finance, so it is very suitable for him to be a member of the Customs Administration Committee."

"Row."

Duan Xun nodded.

Kang Xinru is 30 years old and has done very well in Shanghai in recent years.Let him be in charge of the Customs Administration Committee, and he will become the director of the General Administration of Customs in the future, and he will only be 35 or six years old by then.

After exercising in the position of customs, it can be of great use in the future.

"Changqing (Yang Yongtai), when the Disaster Relief Committee meets tomorrow, you will come to this proposal. I will ask Director Wang (Wang Yongjiang) to support your proposal on behalf of the Ministry of Finance."

"Yes."

"Also, I think our Disaster Relief Committee should set up a logistics support committee. Now that the money in our hands is going to be turned into supplies and sent to the disaster area, I think we should set up a special department to contact those merchants."

Dai Kan and Yang Yongtai did not speak, waiting for Duan Xun to continue.

Because Duan Xun established a lot of temporary departments during this period, each step was not established casually.In name they are all for disaster relief, but in fact they are all about decentralizing and seizing power.

"I think Tan Yankai is very suitable, what do you think?"

Dai Kan and Yang Yongtai smiled slightly when they heard Duan Xun's words.Yang Yongtai nodded again and again: "Prime Minister, what you said makes sense. Tan Yankai has a high reputation and a wide network of contacts, so he is very suitable for this position."

"I agree."

"Then it's settled. At the meeting tomorrow, we will solve it together."

316 shot

"Commander, Duan Xun has malicious intentions, please don't go."

Hunan Army.

Hengyang, the home of the Hunan Army.

Tan Yankai, Cheng Qian, Zhao Hengti, Lin Xiumei, Ye Kaixin, Song Hegeng and other senior generals of the Hunan Army were all there.Tan Yankai looked at the generals of the Hunan Army, it didn't matter whether they were his direct descendants or those who didn't listen to him, it didn't matter now.

Because the Hunan Army is too weak.

Facing the powerful Duan Xun, the Hunan Army was basically powerless to fight back.There are [-] Duan Xun's troops around the Hunan Army. Although they are not targeting the Hunan Army, they put too much pressure on the Hunan Army.In the past few years, the Hunan Army has been lingering in the Hengyang area, because of the strength of Duan Xun's troops, they basically dare not make the slightest move.

Of course, Duan Xun has given the Hunan Army enough face over the years.

He did not attack the Hunan Army, nor did he take back the administrative power of the Hunan Army's territory, so that the Hunan Army could live honestly in Hengyang and Chenzhou.Of course, the reason why Duan Xun didn't clean up the Hunan Army was because it wasn't the time yet, and it wasn't that he really didn't want to clean them up.

People are like that.

There have been constant disputes within the Hunan Army. For the sake of power and ideals, they dare not say that they are fighting to the death, and they are definitely very inconsistent.But Duan Xun's strength is getting stronger and stronger, bringing more and more pressure.

Therefore, the contradictions within the Hunan Army have weakened a lot.

When external pressure is high, internal conflicts will be covered up.Therefore, the Hunan Army has not been divided until now.Without Duan Xun's strong pressure, the Hunan army would have been fighting among themselves and falling out by themselves.

Zhao Hengti was very nervous.

He kept persuading Tan Yankai.Tan Yankai looked at the others, then at Zhao Hengti, and said helplessly: "Duan Xun has openly invited me to be the general manager of the logistics and supplies of the Disaster Relief Committee. What is my name for not going at this time?"

Tan Yankai was really helpless.

I was also very angry with Duan Xun in my heart.

public opinion.

For the Beiyang Army, they actually don't care much about public opinion.Because the early warlords of the Beiyang Army were all Qiu Ba who came out of the barracks.For them, there is only one thing that is most important, and that is the barrel of the gun.In their view, as long as they have guns in their hands, they are not afraid of anything.Under the chaotic situation in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the Beiyang Army relied on the army to rule the country.So they are very superstitious about the army.

Some scholars buzzed like flies to warlords.

Usually nothing happens, they are not interested in it.But if they really messed with them, the military and police closed the museum lightly, arrested people and imprisoned them, and even shot them to death and assassinated them.The governor of the Beiyang Army, Zhang Xun in the past, Ni Sichong, the governor of Anhui, Zhang Jingyao, the governor of Hunan, Wang Zhanyuan, the governor of Hubei, and Li Chun, the governor of Jiangsu, all did such things.

Regardless of whether you are a newspaper or a school, bloody incidents are not once or twice.Even Duan Qirui, a person with good political integrity in the Beiyang Army, has closed the museum and arrested reporters.

In the eyes of the warlords of the Beiyang Army, this kind of thing is very common.

Not to mention public opinion, they didn't pay much attention to the big boys of the Beiyang Army in Congress at first.

When Song Jiaoren was alive, he was active everywhere for congressional elections. Even the base of the Beiyang Army was successfully tackled by the Kuomintang and became a big vote warehouse for the Kuomintang.But Yuan Shikai didn't pay much attention to the Beiyang Army.It wasn't until the Kuomintang won a big victory in the Congress that Yuan Shikai and others discovered that the Congress is still very important.Especially nominally very important.To what extent at that time, if Song Jiaoren became the prime minister, everyone would have to look at Song Jiaoren's face, and Yuan Shikai, the interim president, was no exception.

If Song Jiaoren manipulated the Congress, it would be questionable whether the then interim president Yuan Shikai could legally become a full-time official.If the Congress does not choose Yuan Shikai, the legitimacy of Yuan Shikai's presidency will disappear.It can even be said that whoever the Kuomintang supported at the time has the opportunity to become the official president of the Republic of China.Li Yuanhong was very active during that time, because Li Yuanhong believed that he had a chance to become the official president.If Song Jiaoren is willing and the Kuomintang is willing, then Li Yuanhong can be chosen as the official president.

The situation suddenly became very delicate.

Why did many people suspect Yuan Shikai first after Song Jiaoren was assassinated.It was because Yuan Shikai was in a delicate situation at that time.Because Yuan Shikai is the interim president, after the congressional election, the official presidential election will be held immediately, depending on Song Jiaoren's face.Regardless of whether Sun Yat-sen's accusation against Yuan Shikai was correct or not, it is certain that Yuan Shikai was suspected.

This is all because the Beiyang Army was born in the late Qing Dynasty, and their thinking is still stuck in the old ideas.They only care about the real strength in their hands, and they basically don't understand the new political gameplay.

They don't understand the operation mode of the new political party, the operation mode of the new political system, and the role of public opinion.In this regard, Sun Yat-sen and Song Jiaoren are both experts.

But Duan Xun is different.

Duan Xun is a person who likes it very much and is also very good at using public opinion.Whatever Duan Xun does, he likes to be honest, and he does things in a name that everyone believes in.Duan Xun follows this principle in everything.After entering the Beijing government, controlling the Beijing government is done step by step.

Not blindly.

The same goes for integrated troops.

The same is true for the transfer of Feng Yuxiang, the person Duan Xun fears the most around Beijing.Before the reorganization of the troops, there was no adjustment for the No.16 mixed brigade except for the dispatch of logistics troops and the military law department.Even though he was afraid of Feng Yuxiang's troops around Gyeonggi, Duan Xun did not reorganize blindly, worrying about accidents.

But it took advantage of this opportunity.

Because the name is justified.

This time is the same.Duan Xun is in charge of the Beijing government and his righteousness, so he wants to transfer Tan Yankai away.He has even publicly invited Tan Yankai as the deputy director of the Disaster Relief Committee.

Everybody knows.

They were all watching Tan Yankai's statement.

This is the pressure of public opinion.Tan Yankai and the others are different from the old-fashioned warlords of the Beiyang Army. It is impossible for them to ignore the pressure of public opinion.Under the current disaster relief situation that the whole country attaches great importance to, if Tan Yankai refuses to contribute to disaster relief, he will soon be buried under the attack of public opinion.

Tan Yankai's face is not so thick, and he can bear everyone's accusations.
