The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

spn Yuan Keding couldn't keep up with his old man's thinking for a while, how could he give Jiang Yu the boy the governor of the Northwest so that the boy couldn't eat and walk around?

"In the northwest, except for Shaanxi, which is not bad, the rest are poor places. Not only are there many poor provinces, they can't collect taxes every year, and the central government pays a lot of money. In this case, it's better to throw this burden on the The guy surnamed Jiang. Besides, since he doesn’t want the governor of the Northwest? Let him send a telegram to assure the whole country that in five years’ time, the Northwest will be stable first, and more trees will be planted and railways will be built to clean it up. Well, the horse bandits in the Northwest need to implement a ban on smoking in the Northwest. By the way, he can also control the Yellow River, not only the upper reaches, but also the lower reaches. Tell me, how much will he spend for all these things? " Yuan Shikai asked his eldest son Yuan Keding.

Yuan Keding suddenly realized, but said worriedly: "If he does all these things, it must cost a lot of money, and it's hard to get anything in return. But I'm afraid that kid surnamed Jiang won't be so stupid."

"What if he would? You must know that kid is too young after all, and he always does things with passion and thoughtlessness, just like this time, it is really unwise to fight the Russians to death." Yuan Shikai commented, Although Jiangyu won the war against Russia this time and gained great fame, it actually earned it.

But from the perspective of an old bureaucrat like Yuan Shikai, no one knows the outcome of the war before the outbreak of the war, so it is obviously too unwise for the kid to dare to fight. [

Yuan Shikai, who thought he had seen Jiang Yu's character, made such a judgment. If Jiang Yu found out, he might be very angry.

"Furthermore, it is no longer up to father to decide whether Qin Di will be given to him. If he insists, what else can father do? At that time, he will still have to give it to him, and it will make him look bad. Why don't we simply count it out?" Now, it’s not bad that he didn’t ask for the governor of Zhili.” Yuan Shikai continued, with a hint of resentment in his tone.

Although the boy surnamed Jiang was more impulsive and thoughtless, the result of the war against Russia made Yuan Shikai very passive.

At this time, Jiang Yu's prestige had surpassed that of the president, and he had already posed a serious threat to him, but Yuan Shikai did not dare to offend Jiang Yu, so he was very depressed.

Jiang Yu has a huge appetite, and the first thing he says is the governor of the Northwest, and he calls Outer Mongolia, Chahar, Suiyuan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Xinjiang, and Qinghai-Tibet by name.

You must know that the area of ​​these provinces is almost half the size of China.

Such a vast territory, mostly in poor and poor provinces, really needs to invest a lot of financial resources in order to manage this territory well.

Yuan Shikai then sent a telegram to appoint Jiang Yu as a "Yellow River Tour Envoy", and handed over the task of managing the Yellow River to Jiang Yu, without asking whether Jiang Yu agreed.

Yellow River patrol envoy?

After receiving the telegram, Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment before reacting.

Then he smiled and clapped his hands and said, "Okay! This Yellow River patrol envoy is great!"

Jiang Yu was worried that he would not be able to reach out to the provinces in the Yellow River Basin, but he did not expect Yuan Shikai to give him such convenience.

Govern the Yellow River?

sure!We can pay first, but in the end we have to pay for it.

In addition, in the name of the Yellow River Patrol Envoy, administrative personnel can be placed in various provinces in the Yellow River Basin, which is definitely a good position.

Then Jiang Yu received a telegram from Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai said in the telegram that if he wanted to be the governor of the Northwest, he could also send a telegram to the whole country to ensure that all goals must be achieved during the Northwest administration.

Followed by a list of goals to be achieved.

Article [-]: A railway of [-] kilometers must be built in the Northwest for a period of five years.

In Yuan Shikai's mind, the Northwest's economy was backward, and the railway was a loss-making business when it was built. But Jiang Yu laughed when he saw it, and said, "Where is the [-]-kilometer railway enough?" [

There are many minerals in the Northwest, and there are also many agricultural resources. The [-]-kilometer railway is necessary, and it is far from enough.

Article [-]: Lift the Northwest provinces out of poverty within five years and pay taxes to the central government.

Jiang Yu curled his lips after reading it, Yuan Shikai, you will die long ago after five years, and he will have the final say on whether to pay taxes or not at that time.

Article [-]: Be sure to stabilize the Northwest, if there is a rebellion, you must suppress it yourself.

Article [-]: The horse bandits in the Northwest should be eradicated as soon as possible, smoking should be completely banned in the Northwest, and a large number of trees should be planted in the Northwest.

Article [-], and the most important one, all expenses shall be self-financed by the Northwest provinces, and the central government shall not fund them.

It means that you need to pay for the money needed to achieve these goals!

After Jiang Yu read these requirements, he felt that he had to do it. Although Yuan Shikai saw these goals as Jiang Yu's disadvantage, Jiang Yu felt that he had made money.

Such astonishing and huge views and analysis results are naturally due to the fact that Jiang Yu and Yuan Shikai view issues from different angles and heights.

Yuan Shikai looked at problems from the perspective of the old bureaucrats, seeing the problems in front of him from a very low height, unlike Jiang Yu who looked at problems from the perspective of a traveler, and saw the future from a very high height The problem.

As a result, one was willing to fight and the other was willing to suffer. Jiang Yu immediately telegraphed the whole country and made the five guarantees given by Yuan Shikai to the people of the whole country.

That is, to ensure the stability of the Northwest, to eliminate horse bandits, to completely ban smoking in the Northwest, to improve the economy of the Northwest within five years, so as to pay taxes to the central government, to plant trees in a large area in the Northwest to protect the environment of the Northwest; [-] kilometers of railway...

Under Jiang Yu's guarantee, Yuan Shikai immediately appointed him as the governor of the Northwest to oversee the important military and political affairs of the provinces in the Northwest in order to prevent Jiang Yu from asking for excessive benefits after his victory in the war against Russia.

Yuan Shikai's telegram was identified by later historians as the "passport" for the Huadong Group to seize the entire northwest oil, mineral, and commodity grain base.

Jiang Yu, who had achieved his goal, was in a good mood. In addition, the situation of the war against Russia had gradually become clear at this time, and Russia no longer wanted to continue this battlefield without any benefits, so Jiang Yu's mood was even better.

Although Jiang Yu does not think that if he continues to fight Russia, he will lose, but the problem is that the war will hinder the development of the East China Group, which is very detrimental to the formation of a national capital consortium.And capital is at least the mainstream in the next 200 years. It is not bad for a dynasty to last for 200 years. How far can capital go?Therefore, it is imperative to establish a national capital consortium.

Of course, Jiang Yu can't return to Huai'an at present, and he still needs to continue to exert military pressure on Russia in Outer Mongolia.

The British mediation did not go well, and soon Tang Shaoyi, the envoy sent by Yuan Shikai, also joined the negotiations. It was the British who pulled Yuan Shikai into the negotiations.

Russia currently needs China to give it a step to save the face that has been trampled into a mess.

Russia, which was knocked down twice on the land of the Far East, has now become the object of ridicule by the world. These two wars prove that the decadent Russia has begun to decline militarily.

Obviously, only talking about an armistice with Jiang Yu can't give Russia enough face.

Then Yuan Shikai will give face? [

As soon as the British thought about it, they brought Yuan Shikai's side to the negotiating table.

This chapter is half an hour later than expected. A good classmate came back from other places and slept at Luo Yu's house today. I was late after entertaining you just now. Sorry!

In addition, if you have a ticket, come here!

Luo Yu went to bed first, I am too tired today.
