The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

The spn Central Plains General Assembly has been held in Henan for more than half a month, and the entire Beiyang Army has realized the gap between them and the National Defense Forces, and the superiority of the "Central Army" has also been shattered by emotion.

To put it bluntly, as long as Jiang Yu is willing at this time, he can unify China by force.

Although the Beiyang era created by Yuan Shikai was the period when the rulers were the least free and the people were the freest, the essence of the rulers still existed.

When the ruler does not defeat his opponent, he will give up part of his interests in order to coexist peacefully.

Although the Beiyang factions have national integrity in history and are unwilling to compromise with Japan, Jiangyu is different because Jiangyu is also Chinese. [

If they compromise with Japan, then they are traitors.

But they compromised with Jiang Yu, but they did not sell their country.

If they don't compromise, they can only be wiped out by Jiang Yuqing. If they compromise, maybe they can gain a good reputation in the future, and at the same time, they can ensure the interests of the Beiyang Group.

Under the dominance of these factors, after the Central Plains Parade, when the senior leaders of the two major groups were discussing various issues in an all-round way, the East China faction took the lead.

Jiang Yu went to inspect the cotton production area when the two major military groups were negotiating comprehensively. He was accompanied by a beautiful woman, 19-year-old Yi Weijun.

Cotton seedlings have emerged from the cotton fields, and cotton is planted almost everywhere in China's largest cotton producing area.

At this time, Yi Ruizhi ran over from the convoy and said to Jiang Yu: "Yuan Shikai has agreed to set up China's highest military court, and you, the commander-in-chief, will be the judge to judge all Chinese soldiers. In addition, they have begun to discuss the issue of local taxation Already, Jiang Fangzhen asks you for the specific bottom line."

"Call back to Jiang Fangzhen, 40% of the local tax revenue can be turned over to the central government, and another 30% will be reserved for the military expenditure of the National Defense Forces, and 30% will be used for local construction expenditure." Jiang Yu said without thinking.

"40.00%? Isn't Yuan Shikai about to turn the world upside down?" Yi Weijun who was following Jiang Yu exclaimed.

"You can't turn the sky around. Yuan Shikai is not the one who can cover the sky with one hand. At that time, the military expenditures of the National Defense Army and the Beiyang Army must be equal, and the scale of our territory has surpassed that of the Beiyang Government. Withholding 30% of the tax revenue as military expenses is enough for us to feed There are a lot of soldiers and horses. Moreover, the Beiyang Army has to buy the ammunition from us, and Yuan Shikai can't compete with us in financial resources." Jiang Yu said firmly.

It's time for him to reach for the center too.

The two sisters looked at Jiang Yu talking, it was difficult for them to understand Jiang Yu's actions.

He obviously has super strong force, why didn't he just kill Yuan Shikai and make things so troublesome.

Obviously they didn't understand Jiang Yu's confidence in gradually annexing Beiyang.

At this time, Jiang Yu's life was very comfortable. One of the two sisters was his personal secretary and the other was his life assistant. They were accompanied by two seductive beauties. It was a happy day.

……

After the turmoil ended in the first ten days of Guichou, the people all over the country hoped that the country would be stable. Of course, many intellectuals and bourgeoisie still shouted the slogan of a democratic republic.

Intellectuals were first brainwashed by Westerners, and the bourgeoisie hoped for a democratic republic because it would improve their status.

Ordinary people don't know what a democratic republic is. Under their deception, they still hope for the beautiful blueprint drawn by those intellectuals. [

Under such circumstances, the alliance between Jiang Yu and Yuan Shikai is suspected to have laid the foundation for China's overall stability.

After the Central Plains Parade, the two large groups quickly signed more than a dozen secret agreements. In early May, Jiang Yu returned to Huai'an from Henan, and Yuan Shikai also returned home.

Song Jiaoren began to rectify the Kuomintang, and at the same time prepared to go north to take office as the cabinet premier.

After the Kuomintang rebellion, the presidential election was brought back to the table.

The main candidates for this election are Yuan Shikai and Li Yuanhong. However, Yuan Shikai has Jiang Yu's support, and Li Yuanhong's Republican Party has been split by Jiang Yu. Therefore, it is useless for Li Yuanhong to run for president. He can only be vice president.

And Jiang Yu didn't even have any interest in the vice president.

Although the vice president is not as tragic as the grand president.

Wang Shizhen, one of the Three Heroes of Beiyang, once said: If you want to harm someone, let him be the president.

The Beiyang era was the period when the rulers were least free, and the president was also the one who suffered the most. Open and dark arrows flocked to the president from all directions.

In order to gradually control the central government, Jiang Yu vigorously wooed Song Jiaoren.

First of all, a BMW car was given away, and at the same time, Suzhou Garden also gave away one.

Sun Zhendong, who was in charge of gift giving, called Jiang Yu's home that day and reported to Jiang Yu: "Song Jiaoren accepted the car, but he declined the garden in Suzhou. Song Jiaoren asked me to tell the commander-in-chief , He will handle government affairs impartially and will not favor any party."

Jiang Yu was taken aback. He didn't expect Song Jiaoren's bottom line to be so strong. It was really a bit tricky, but that's okay. His goal was also for this country. The tricky thing was that sometimes Jiang Yu's consortium had to take some extraordinary measures. The one who came to achieve market monopoly immediately smiled and said, "Okay, as long as he can be private and public, that's fine, don't push too hard."

"Yes." Sun Zhendong continued to report to Jiang Yu: "In addition, according to Zhu Erdian's feedback, after we held the Central Plains Parade, Britain has become wary of China, and it is likely to intend to check and balance China."

"The British guys can't make any big waves. But before the European war, you still have to continue to paralyze Britain. You will send Zhu Erdian a check for 20 yuan later, so that he can continue to give advice to the British cabinet." Jiang Yu ordered.

"Yes."

……

After returning to Huai'an, Jiang Yu devoted himself to the development of industrial technology. At this time, Brita was pregnant again, and Jiang Yu was very happy.

However, Jiang Yu's mother, Mrs. Xu, went to the temple that day, but she was not very happy when she came back. After dinner, Mrs. Xu pulled Jiang Yu aside and said, "Xiao Yu, mother went to the temple to ask about it today. , your daughter-in-law gave birth to a girl this time, I think you can marry another one sooner."

"Uh..." Jiang Yu was a little stunned, had he asked in the temple?After a while, he asked his mother, "This...is it accurate?"

"That is the most efficacious temple in Huai'an." The Xu family firmly believed, but Jiang Yu was not very suspicious. These days, the ghosts and snake gods have not been destroyed by the later Taizu, and the ghosts and snake gods are everywhere.

Many are very effective. [

As the saying goes, if you are poor, you need to tell your fortune, and if you are rich, you need to burn incense.

There are indeed many Yin gods in the temple, and those with higher mana are easy to predict.

Living in the old times since he was a child, he saw a lot of witches and mages, as well as various magical phenomena, so Jiang Yu didn't doubt it very much.

Of course there are liars, but someone who has been able to keep the largest temples and witches for a long time has some real skills, otherwise who would believe it!

In the old days, the transmission of information was slow. For example, if a person did not return home for a long time after traveling far away, his family would usually ask the sorceress, and the sorceress would ask the yin god to cast spells on his body to investigate. This is very common.

Yin gods with high mana are generally in temples, and some witches and mages can be invited, while others cannot.Those with low mana will find a psychic person as a spokesperson, so as to gain the credibility of the incense in the world and continue to survive.

The human spirit is the source of energy formation, so the Yin God essentially relies on spiritual energy to continue to survive.

Even after the wave of "defeat the ghosts and snake gods" in the later generations, there are still many ghosts who survived, but people in the city are generally out of touch.

Yin gods will do good deeds to accumulate virtue, because Yin gods were also cultivated by humans before they were alive. There are more Buddhism and Taoism in general. It is said in the Sutra: Those who die without dying will live long. Therefore, when encountering people who do bad things, the Yin God will generally take action to punish them.

"It's not bad to have a daughter!" Jiang Yu said with a wry smile. He didn't really care about it, but at the same time he was a little worried. He always had to have a son, so there was some conflict, "Maybe next time I can have a kid. "

"The Buddha in the temple said that if your daughter-in-law can't have a boy, she will have two sons. Besides, she is a foreigner. It doesn't matter if she has a daughter. Anyway, it will belong to someone else's family in the future. If you give birth to a son, the blood is always wrong. After that, wouldn't the descendants become half foreigners?" Mrs. Xu persuaded her son earnestly, "I think Na Weijun's child is not bad, just two years younger than you, why don't you accept her as a second wife."

"Then what if they don't make small ones?" Jiang Yu said in a tone of voice.

"What's the point? If someone had become a great general before, they would have had three wives and four concubines, and the second wife would be considered an equal wife. Why don't I let her become a big one? After all, she is a Han Chinese, and it's justifiable to be a big one. " Xu continued to persuade.

Jiang Yu was sweating, this year is already the period of the Republic of China.

Tang Qunying's group of women's rights activists were having a great time, and even Song Jiaoren was beaten.Now that he has three wives and four concubines, it is easy to cause criticism.

It's just that men dream of having three wives and four concubines, and Jiang Yu is no exception.

After coughing, Jiang Yu stopped talking.Xu regarded him as acquiescing, and said happily: "This matter is easy to handle. You wait, son, and mother will take care of it for you."

"Forget it, mother, I'll do it myself!" Jiang Yu said hastily.

The first!
