Chapter 172 171. Punish the culprit and deal with the aftermath

After Feng Guozhang came to Beijing to take over the presidency, the two factions of Zhi and Anhui started a cold war, which lasted for three years. This is also a characteristic of the Beiyang warlords' rule—the cold war was long and the hot war was short.Zhiwan has been in a cold war for three years, but the war lasted only three or four days.What is especially weird is that the lineups of the two factions are not clear-cut. The real hostile ones are the border guards under the command of Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng in the Anhui faction, and the direct army under the command of Cao Kun and Wu Peifu in the direct branch.The two lines of soldiers in other provinces stood still and watched success or failure.

The border guards were defeated, and Duan Qirui was the first to fall.Duan's failure brought Xu Shichang a beautiful fantasy. Before Duan fell, Xu You was like a thorn in his back. Now that the Supreme Government has collapsed, he is a veteran of Beiyang, so he can naturally be the true leader of Beiyang faction.Xu Shichang is an old fox recognized by everyone. He has his own plans. He wants to maintain a balance between the Zhifeng and Fenggong clans. The trend, check each other, so that he can become a powerful president.Therefore, he hopes that the Zhifeng Army will not march into Beijing. As for the aftermath of the war, such as punishing the culprit, withdrawing the border guards, reorganizing the cabinet, etc., it is best for the victor to put forward specific opinions, and he—the President Unified management, he advocated that Duan Kuanda should not be taken too far. As long as the military power is lifted, he can live freely and should be given considerable preferential treatment.

Xu's magnanimous proposition won Zhang Zuolin's approval. Feng Zhang and the Anhui Clan did not have a deep blood feud, so there was no need to kill them all. What's more subtle was that if he took this opportunity to collect the remnants of the Anhui Clan, wouldn't he strengthen himself, so his attitude was very moderate. .Cao Kun advocated punishing all Anhui politicians and Anfu faction elements related to the facts, but in order to maintain the friendship with the Feng faction, he made as much as possible to Zhang Zuolin.However, Wu Peifu advocated that the Anfu elements should be thoroughly eliminated, the properties of the culprits should be seized as funds for the aftermath, the Anfu Congress should be dissolved, and Duan Qirui should be imprisoned in Tangshan.

Although the Zhi-Anhui War ended on the 18th, the vanguard troops of the Zhi-Feng Army did not arrive in Beijing until the 23rd. On July 23, the Beijing government dispatched Wang Huaiqing to supervise the closing of the Kinki army. On the 24th, Li Sihao, Chief of Finance, Zhu Shen, Chief of Justice, and Zeng Yujun, Chief of Transportation, were exempted from their posts.Tian Wenlie was assigned to act concurrently as the chief of transportation, and the deputy ministers of the finance and justice departments acted as acting ministers.Duan Zhigui, commander of the Gyeonggi garrison, was also allowed to be removed from his post. On the 26th, the punishment of Cao Kun, Wu Peifu and others was revoked.Approved the resignation of Wu Bingxiang, chief police officer of the Beijing Normal University, and appointed Yin Hongshou to succeed him. On the 28th, Duan Qirui, who supervised the frontier defense affairs and managed the affairs of the general's mansion, resigned.Order to abolish the Supervisory Office of Border Defense.Order to revoke the name of the Northwest Army. On the 29th, General Zhaowu and Jiang Gui, the capital of Rehe, were sent to take charge of the affairs of the general's mansion.

After the defeat of the Anhui Clan, the main drama was that the Zhi Clique demanded to punish the culprits. The list of the culprits of the Zhi Clan has never been announced. According to the famous list, there are two people, Cao Rulin and Lu Zongyu, because these two are the people who borrowed money from Japan. Before the war in Anhui, he also advanced a sum of military expenses to the Dingguo Army (Duan Army).However, the names of Cao and Lu were deleted from Xu Shichang's works. Jiangsu governor Li Chun also called to join Wang Yi, one of the culprits of the Tang Dynasty, and Hubei governor Wang Zhanyuan also asked to join Wu Guangxin. Xu Shichang believed that these two men were not in Beijing and did not directly participate in the war, so they should be handled separately.

On July 29, the Beijing government issued an order to arrest the culprit. The order is as follows: "The law of the country, so the scope of common people, Burmese rules and regulations, and the state has constant punishment. This time Xu Shuzheng and others called the soldiers Ji Fu, which caused harm to Lu Yan. The origin of the disaster is because it belongs to the Northwest Frontier Army, and it is ordered to be handed over to the Ministry of the Army for handling. At the beginning, he deliberately manipulated and refused to hand over the resistance. Then he instigated the army, launched the military force suddenly, and even coerced General Jianwei Duan Qirui, not to establish the name of the national army. Private pictures. Zeng Yujun, Duan Zhigui, etc., form parties to aid each other, help each other with evil, or participate in conspiracy, personally engage in military affairs; , Why should the law of the country be exaggerated? Xu Shuzheng, Zeng Yujun, Duan Zhigui, Ding Shiyuan, Zhu Shen, Wang Zhilong, Liang Hongzhi, Yao Zhen, Li Sihao, Yao Guozhen, etc., respectively confiscated the medals of official positions, and the Jingshi Police Department under the command of the infantry took a strict crackdown , must be interrogated and handled according to law. The Ministry of Political Affairs and Communications should instruct the Ministry to conduct a thorough investigation of the funds and submit them for verification. Although the state is lenient, the crime of such a situation is obvious, and the law exists, so it must not be excused. , this order."

After Feng Jun entered Beijing, he went to the Anfu Club to conduct a search. On August 4, Xu Shichang ordered the disbandment of the Anfu Club.but declares: "Except for those who have been explicitly ordered to prosecute, the rest of the party members of the ministry will be exempted from prosecution unless they have evidence of affiliation. Those who have branches of the ministry in all provinces and regions will be disbanded." This order caused serious dissatisfaction among Cao Kun, Wu Peifu, and the three governors of the Yangtze River, so Xu Shichang issued a reissue order on August 7:

1. "According to the telegram submitted by Li Chun, the governor of Jiangsu: Wang Yitang sent party members, brought money, and incited Jiangsu military police and anti-smuggling camps. He also bought gangsters, carried dangerous objects, and spread them around the provincial capital of Zhenjiang, Yangzhou, in order to disturb them. If you have convincing evidence, please bring it to the court for punishment. It is very important for Wang Yi and Tang Jing to serve as the general representative, but he actually incited the military and the police to plot chaos in many ways. Immediately deprive the officers of the military and the medals they received, and the officers of the military and civilians outside Beijing will strictly arrest them and punish them according to law, this order."

2. "The Anfu Club was previously used as an organization to organize chaos, and there was an order to disband it. All Fangshu, Guangyunjin, Kang Shiduo, Zheng Wanzhan, Zang Yinsong, Zhang Xuan or many parties affiliated to the club incited and sponsored the conspiracy. Confusing right and wrong, concealing plans and failing to succeed, all of which are evidences of affiliation and deprivation of official medals, all of which will be severely punished and punished. And reform. This order." What about the "culprit"?As the Chinese saying goes: If you succeed, you will be a king, if you lose, you will be a bandit.The Anhui Clan failed, and Xu Shuzheng, who was so arrogant, also ended up like a bereaved dog, and fled to Dongjiaominxiang.Among the ten most wanted culprits, except Li Sihao, the chief financial officer, who fled to the Soviet-Russian Daosheng Bank alone, they all hid in the Japanese military camp in Dongjiaomin Lane.Both the Zhifeng and Fenglin departments requested the Beijing government to negotiate for extradition. At that time, the envoys of Britain, the United States, and France in the diplomatic corps were helping the Zhili lineage and advocated the deportation of the culprit. The overseas Chinese are not allowed to accommodate Chinese men, and they will move out if there is a limit.The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Beijing issued letters to the embassies of various countries asking for the culprits, but the Japanese embassies admitted that nine of the ten culprits were taken in. The reply said:

"Xu Shuzheng, Zeng Yujun, Duan Zhigui, Ding Shiyuan, Zhu Shen, Wang Zhilong, Liang Hongzhi, Yao Zhen, Yao Guozhen and other nine people came to this embassy to ask for protection. In view of the common sense in the world and the past practice in China, this envoy believes that the matter is unavoidable. It was recognized and decided to protect these clans. Immediately house all these clans in the envoy guard camp, and give a serious warning that in the shelter, they must never interfere in all politics and cut off communication with the outside world. This envoy hereby specially informs you before your acting chief (At this time, foreign minister Lu Zhengxiang said he was sick and asked for leave, and Yan Huiqing acted on his behalf.) This envoy's handling this time is beyond political interest, that is, the protection of these families is by no means Based on the affiliated political faction, the embassy cannot refuse to accept the special treatment because the family does not belong to the political faction. I also believe that your ministry will understand this sincerity. August ninth."

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs received the reply from the Japanese envoy, and wrote to the Japanese envoy saying: "Our government cannot accept the notice of your envoy on the 9th of this month. I apologize. Our government is currently investigating the crimes of the criminals. Once it is over, it will notify your envoy of the evidence of his crimes and request his extradition. , and hope that your envoy will not let the criminals escape, or move to another place to hide." The day made the book, and the reply word refused: "Your Chief Reply to our envoy's announcement on the 9th of this month regarding the accommodation of Xu Shuzheng and others in the imperial envoy's barracks, I have already received it... However, the order issued by the President of your country to arrest the prisoner is based on politics, so Our embassy will accept and protect them as political prisoners. We also declare that no matter what criminal charges they may face, we cannot accept the request of your chief minister and extradite them." Xu Shuzheng lived in the Japanese barracks for three months. Later, Onodera, the commander of the Japanese army stationed in Tianjin, helped him escape.It is said that Xiao Xu disguised herself as a Japanese woman, packed it in a wicker box, and was taken by a Japanese officer into a first-class compartment of the train to Tianjin.At the same time, Japanese soldiers in plain clothes were on guard at all stations along the Beijing-Tianjin Road.It is said that Onodera's help of Xu Tuo's escape was entirely a personal action, and he was soon transferred back to China because of this incident.Later became a member of Congress. When Xiao Xu was transported away in the wicker box, he hummed the Beijing opera "Going to the meeting alone" in the box. Until November 16, Japanese Minister Kobata formally sent a note to the Beijing Ministry of Foreign Affairs, saying that Xu Shuzheng had escaped from the Japanese barracks.At this time, Xiao Xu had already arrived in Shanghai and lived in a foreign house on Maigen Road in the British Concession. This house belonged to Chen Leshan, the teacher under Lu Yongxiang. After the Zhili victory, Wu Peifu became the most prominent figure at that time. He was popular for a while since he withdrew from Hengyang. On August 1, he showed his hand again. He said that the current situation was protracted, and he wanted to make it public to the people. He planned to convene a national assembly to solve the current situation, and drafted eight outlines: (1) Name.for the National Assembly. (2) Nature.It is recruited by the citizens themselves, and cannot be supervised by government agencies, so as to avoid manipulation by bureaucrats and politicians. (3) Purpose.Taking the principle of national self-determination, all major issues such as the aftermath of unification, the formulation of the constitution, the revision of electoral methods, and all major issues shall be resolved by the people, and local governments shall not use excuses to sabotage them. (4) Members.Each association of agricultural, industrial and commercial associations in counties across the country will nominate one person for the primary election, and the nominated persons do not have to be limited to each association.If there is no agricultural industry and commerce association, it is better to lack than to overuse.Then one-fifth of the province's combined elections will be re-selected.Once the re-elections in all provinces are completed, gather in Tianjin or Shanghai to set up a meeting. (5) Supervision.The presidents of the provincial and county agricultural, industrial and commercial schools supervise each other, and the government must not interfere. (6) Office.Firstly, the associations of agricultural, industrial and commercial schools in each province will be co-organized as the head office of the province, and then the head office will call the associations of agricultural, industrial and commercial schools in each county, and the county offices will be established recently.The detailed rules and regulations shall be determined by the institute. (7) Funding.Expenditures are made under the self-government funds of each province and county. (8) Time limit.The meeting shall be held within three months, and the resolutions listed in Article 3 shall be announced within six months, and then the meeting shall be adjourned.He also advocated the abolition of the old and new parliaments in the north and the south, and the abolition of the peace talks between the north and the south.All disputes over the years shall be decided by the people. Wu's proposition was first met with fierce opposition from Zhang Zuolin.So conceived to death. At this time, a political happy event occurred, that is, Cao Kun, the leader of the direct line, and Zhang Zuolin, the leader of the Feng line, became relatives of their sons and daughters. Zhang's daughter Xu married Cao Zi. Cao Kun's son was born to his younger brother Cao Rui and adopted .Chinese and foreign newspapers spread it as gossip outside of the war. On August 9, 1999, the Beijing government appointed Jin Yunpeng as the prime minister. During Jin's resignation, he has been acting as the acting chief of the Navy Sa Zhenbing.Jin’s resignation was due to the downfall of the Anfu Department. Now the Agriculture and Welfare Department has completely collapsed, and the victorious side is the Zhifeng Department. Zhang Zuolin is Jin’s in-laws, and Cao Zhang is also a relative. Therefore, it is no problem for Jin to become the Prime Minister again. up. This is Jin Yunpeng's second cabinet. The cabinet list is as follows: Gan Huiqing, Minister of Foreign Affairs. (Department) Chief of Internal Affairs Zhang Zhitan. (Department) Finance Minister Zhou Ziqi. (Department) Jin Yunpeng, chief of the army and concurrently. (Department) Naval Chief Sa Zhenbing. Justice General Dong Kang. (Department) Fan Yuanlian, Minister of Education. (Department) Wang Naibin, Minister of Agriculture and Commerce. (Department) Ye Gongchuo, Chief of Transportation. (Department) On August 20, the Beijing government appointed Cao Kun as the tour envoy to Zhi, Lu and Henan, and on September 2, Wu Peifu was appointed as the deputy tour envoy.Cao ordered Wu to garrison a small station.Wu, who defended Gyeonggi, had other plans. He led the third division of his direct troops to station in Luoyang.Tigers see the Central Plains.He often writes two couplets to givers: (1) If you want to quell the disaster, you must have courage, and vow to sweep the Japanese people regardless of your own life. (2) The flowers bloom in Yangchun only in March, and people are on the first peak of Penglai. On October 12, 9, Li Chun, a direct general in Jiangsu Province, died suddenly. Li Chun's death became an amazing anecdote in the political arena at that time, because the newspapers at that time used the title "Jiangsu Warlord Li Chun worried about his country's suicide" as the title.But did Li Chun really commit suicide?If he committed suicide out of concern for the country, why didn't he commit suicide when Yuan Shikai's theft of the country, Zhang Xun's restoration, the Civil War, or the May 4th Movement, when the country was in crisis, but when the Anhui Province suffered a disastrous defeat and was directly connected to its heyday?This is what caused the outside world to boil. Regarding Li Chun's background, he can barely be regarded as an old man of Xiaozhan. He defected to Feng Guozhang when he was in Xiaozhan, and served as a reporter.In the first year of the Republic of China, Feng Guozhang served as the governor of Zhili and led the sixth town of the army, and Li Chun was the eleventh coordinator of the sixth town.The sixth town was later changed to the sixth division. After the failure of the second revolution of the Kuomintang, Yuan Lingfeng became the governor of Jiangsu, and he was given to Li Chun as the commander of the sixth division.When Feng Guozhang succeeded as president, Li Chun was Feng's direct descendant, so Feng Baoli served as the governor of Jiangsu, and the governor of Jiangxi was succeeded by Chen Guangyuan, another direct descendant. After Feng became president in Beijing, he was incompatible with Prime Minister Duan Qirui. Li Chun contacted Wang Zhanyuan, the governor of Hubei, and Chen Guangyuan, the governor of Jiangxi, was known as the three governors of the Yangtze River.In terms of closeness, if Feng Guozhang chose the second position in the direct line, it would not be Cao Kun but Li Chun. During the seven or eight years of the Republic of China, Li Chun gained a good reputation because he advocated peace and opposed civil war, and he was humble and approachable.But he also has shortcomings and is easily deceived. Li Chun developed a sad state of mind because his wife had no children. In the early years of the Republic of China, his wife adopted an orphan girl named Lingzi as a maidservant.At that time, Lingzi was only 12 years old. She was naturally beautiful and clever, so Li Chun and his wife loved her very much. They didn't regard her as a maid, but as their own daughter. When this girl arrived at Li Chun's home, Li had not been promoted to the sixth division commander. Since she entered the house, Li Chun was promoted to the sixth division commander, Jiujiang town guard, Jiangxi governor and Jiangsu governor. Li and his wife thought it was brought by Lingzi. Good luck, so I love Lingzi even more. When Li Chun was the brigade commander, he inspected the troops once. Among the private soldiers, he found an eighteen or nineteen-year-old recruit. .Li Chun is also from Tianjin. Because of his friendship with his hometown, he brought Bi Zhenglin back to the brigade department and sent him to work in the communication office.During his work, Bi was exquisite and diligent, and Li liked him very much, so he ordered him to study characters with a copywriter in his spare time. After a year, he was able to read newspapers and ordinary official documents.Li Chun was more satisfied, so he sent Bi to be his horse-bian (today's guard). Unexpectedly, Xiao Qiang got into trouble because of Bi Zhenglin. Bi Zhenglin was especially favored by Li Chun, and he was born smart. Therefore, Li Chun's relatives and relatives all admired Bi very much, so Bi climbed up from Ma Bian step by step. When Li Chun served as the governor of Jiangxi, Bi was promoted to captain Adjutant, specializing in personal affairs and family affairs of the Overseer.Since Bi is Li Chun's confidant, it is very easy to come and go in and out of Li's mansion, and Lingzi is in her prime at this time, the two of them can't help flirting, one is a boy and the other is a girl, and they naturally get close to each other. In the 6th year of the Republic of China, Li Chun went to Nanjing to take over the governor of Jiangsu Province. He left in a hurry and ordered Bi Zhenglin to hire a boat to escort the furniture and escort his family members before leaving.Bi and Lingzi were on the same boat. Once Bi made a joke in front of Lingzi, but Mrs. Li heard it and was very upset. After arriving in Beijing, she told Li Chun that Lingzi had grown up and she should choose someone to marry. , so as not to delay her youth.Li Chun immediately thought of Bi Zhenglin, thinking that the two were about the same age, and if they got married, they could still work in the supervisory office.Soon the two were officially married. The Nanjing Supervisory Office has two large offices. The outer office is in the front yard, which is specially used for large gatherings and receiving foreign guests from afar. For reading and resting.Upstairs lived the warlord's family members and a few maids.The new houses of Adjutant Bi and Lingzi were placed at the left rear of the inner office, so Lingzi often went to the inner house of the Governor's Office to entertain the Governor's wife after getting married. After Lingzi became a young woman, of course everything seemed very mature, not as reserved as before when she was single, and she was not as shy as she used to be when she met Li Chun sometimes.Li Chunze still treats Lingzi as a child as before.However, Lingzi is a young woman who has just begun to fall in love, so there is a seductive style in her actions, words and smiles, and sometimes she will act like a baby in front of Li Chun when Li's wife is not there. Conceited, one day because Li's wife went out, Li Chun actually had an ulterior affair with Lingzi. From then on, Li Chun often sent Bi Zhenglin out to meet Lingzi in secret under the pretext of excuses, and kept doing this secretly for a year.Although Bi Zhenglin was slightly aware of this, but because Dujun Li was his parents, not only the water chestnut was given by Li Chun, but also his fame and wealth in the future would all depend on Li Shilai. I don't care about it. One day, Li sent Bi to Shanghai to buy clothes and accessories for his wife. After receiving the order, in order to please Lingzi, Bi Yu went back to the room and asked Lingzi, "If you need anything, I can bring it back from Shanghai." Lingzi was absent-minded. He replied, "You can buy whatever you want!" Seeing her unhappy face, Bi Zhenglin didn't speak anymore, and immediately withdrew. Obeying the law has become a habit for him. He was afraid that he would miss the early train and would not be able to make it back that day, so he hurried out. Fortunately, he caught the morning train and arrived in Shanghai before 12:00. A large department store on Nanjing Road, according to the pre-arranged list of goods, did not change places, that is, they bought everything.Then I bought a few accessories for Lingzi, went to a snack bar, ate my stomach indiscriminately, hired a carriage on the street, and rushed to the station, just in time for the return express at 2:00 pm, and returned to Nanjing at 7:00 pm .Immediately hired a rickshaw, returned to the supervisory office, got off the rickshaw full of joy, carried the net basket, and went straight to his house.Unexpectedly, when the door was pushed, it was already bolted from the inside, and there were two slaps, but no one responded. It turned out that Li Chun had had dinner that day and had nothing to do. He suddenly remembered that Bi Zhenglin had gone to Shanghai. He expected that when Bi Chu arrived in a prosperous place like Shanghai, he must be greedy for entertainment and couldn't return that day, so he felt relieved and boldly went to Lingzi's house to have fun.Just when Haomeng was around, he suddenly heard a knock on the door, so he hurriedly pushed Lingzi away, and after listening carefully, it was Bi Zhenglin's voice, he got anxious, got out of bed, and wanted to find a place of hiding, to take refuge temporarily For a while, Wu Ru could not find a place to hide in the room except for a wooden bed and four wooden chairs. In embarrassment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door in person, just in time to meet Bi Zhenglin opposite.When Bi saw the warlord coming to open the door, he panicked and hurriedly took two steps back, raising his hands in salute. Li Fan was so embarrassed that he had nothing to say, he only murmured twice from his nostrils, and hurried away.Bi Ze stood in a daze, stupefied, watching Li go away, and then slowly came to his senses, and walked into the room listlessly.Because of this delay, Lingzi had already put on her clothes and made the quilt. Seeing Bi Zhenglin sitting in a corner of the house, silent, she asked with a smile: "What urgent things did you buy for the wife of the last room? Why, the warlord came to ask in person just now, did you see him?" Bi Zhenglin was in a state of embarrassment and didn't know how to end it, when he was reminded by Lingzi, he immediately took care of it, and bought a few things for Lingzi He took out the accessories from the net basket and said: "Put these things away first, and I'll go upstairs to deliver the urgent things I bought for the governor's wife, so that she won't be in a hurry." Then he picked up the net basket and hurried and go. At this time, it was just after 8 o'clock in the evening, the upstairs of the main room was brightly lit, and none of them fell asleep. Bi walked to the door of Li's bedroom and shouted: "Report!" Mrs. Li replied immediately when she heard Bi's voice "Come in!" After Bi entered the door, he saw Li Chun sitting at the desk by the window, silently looking at an official document, with an extremely indifferent attitude. Take out the clothes and ask Mrs. Li to have a look.Mrs. Li glanced at it briefly, and then said: "The things you bought are all very good, go back to your room and rest." After all, she was afraid that the warlord would be worried about the matter, so she bit the bullet and took out the invoice issued by the merchant, respectfully Jing sent it to Li's desk and said: "This is the invoice for today's shopping, please look over it." Li saw an angry face, squinted and said: "Put it here." After admitting Li's displeasure, Maybe it's still a matter of talent, so I didn't dare to say more, that is, I held my breath and quietly withdrew.As he walked outside, he meditated secretly: "If you don't try to get rid of the block in the warlord's heart, you will always worry about your life." How can we get rid of this worry?There was no proper solution for a while.And when he went down the stairs, he saw that the tea tables and chairs in the governor's office were a little messy, so he sorted them out and planned a countermeasure. When Bi Zhenglin was in a state of confusion and had no idea what to do, he suddenly heard the sound of stairs, and someone came down from upstairs. Looking back, it was Li Dujun who he was worried about. He went to the desk, sat down, took the pen and paper, pondered for a while, and wrote a note in a hurry: "Go to the Military Law Department and call Director Yang, and tell him that I have something urgent to do, and I want him to hurry up." Come." Bi responded, "Yes!" and immediately turned around and exited.Because Bi Zhenglin was not very literate and didn't know much about Li's continuous cursive script, so after he went out, his heart was like fifteen buckets up and down. He thought: "The warlord's face must be because of The reason why the adultery was broken. It is too late now, and I am anxious to find the chief of the military law, so I must want to shoot myself while there is no one in the night. Otherwise, why can’t I wait until tomorrow?” That’s it I thought wildly, and the more I thought about it, the more suspicious I became, and finally I thought, if I am waiting to be shot, why not strike first.After making up his mind, he reached out to touch the pistol at his waist and loaded it with bullets, the more determined his mind became.He was about to hold the pistol in his hand, gritted his teeth, walked back to the office, first looked in from the crack of the door, saw Li Chun was still sitting on the grand teacher's chair in the middle, Zhi Yi was sitting in the chair, closed his eyes and meditated, Bi Nai gently hid himself in , aimed at Li's chest, and fired three shots in a row. Before Li could shout, he fell to the ground immediately.Seeing that he had caused a catastrophe, he lost his mind for a while, and stood in the same place in a daze, dumbfounded.At this time, the guards in the courtyard heard the rapid gunshots in the office, and immediately rushed to check. They saw Bi Zhenglin holding a short gun, facing the dead body of the warlord who was lying on the ground in a daze. , snatched his pistol, and tied him up with a rope.At this time, Mrs. Li from the upper floor also rushed over after hearing the sound. When she saw her husband lying stiff in a pool of blood and breathless, she lay down on his body and cried loudly until she almost fainted.During the turmoil, Yang, the platoon leader of the guards, also rushed to hear the sound, asked a little about the reason, then ran to the phone, picked up the phone, reported the reason to Qi Xieyuan, the Office of Military Affairs, and asked him to come to deal with the aftermath.Because Qi had already heard about the ambiguous situation between Li and Lingzi, and he only regarded himself as a subordinate, so he did not speak out to dissuade such secret and private affairs. Now, when he heard that "the governor was killed by Bi Zhenglin", I understood 90% of the situation, and immediately drove to the supervisor's office, first asked Bi Zhenglin a simple question, and then advised Mrs. Li to go upstairs together to discuss how to deal with the aftermath. After careful discussions between Qi Xieyuan and Mrs. Li, they believed that if the truth was announced, it would be quite detrimental to Li Dujun's reputation. It would be more appropriate to keep the truth secret and make up a set of aboveboard statements to publish to the outside world.After Mrs. Li agreed to this principle, Qi came forward, called Bi Zhenglin in front of him, reprimanded him a few words, and ordered someone to fetch 500 silver dollars, saying: "According to your crimes, even if the whole family is shot, it is not enough to pay for your crimes." , Because the Governor’s wife thinks that you have not made any serious mistakes, I will reward you with 500 yuan for travel expenses, and you are limited to take water chestnuts, and leave Nanjing overnight, and you are not allowed to reveal the truth of this case to anyone!" Bi kowtowed and thanked En and took the water chestnuts and left.Qi Naifu sternly warned the officers and soldiers present, and found a secretary who had been with Li Chun for many years, explained the details to him, and ordered him to forge Li Chun's suicide note overnight, to the effect that: "Chun is not born at the right time. , because he couldn't bear to sit and watch the Shenzhou land sink, he began to invest in the army. After the original hope that the revolution was successful, the country entered the realm of prosperity and strength. People are meager, there is no help, and it is difficult. Apart from heartache, I can only die to thank the people of the country. After Chun's death, I wish my robes will be full of ignorance, and everything will be handled by the central government. No regrets." After writing it, Qi Fu slightly revised it, issued a circular based on it, and submitted it to the Beijing government for approval. After Li Chun's death, the governor of Jiangsu was vacant. The Jiangsu people wanted to take this opportunity to refuse the appointment of governors from other provinces, or to abolish the governors at all.The Beijing government also wanted to take this opportunity to abolish the Soviet governor first, but Cao Kun and Zhang Zuolin sent a telegram saying that the abolition of the governor was an anarchist idea, so the proposal to abolish the Soviet governor first fell through. Who will succeed Sudu?Chen Guangyuan hoped that Wang Zhanyuan, one of the three governors of the Yangtze River, would be transferred from Hubei to Jiangsu, and he himself would be transferred from Jiangxi to Hubei, and Qi Xieyuan or the newly rising Wu Peifu would be the governor of Jiangxi.Qi Xieyuan wanted to be promoted to the governor of the Soviet Union and abolish the tour envoy, or to promote Wang Shizhen as the tour envoy.The Beijing government wants to send Wang Shizhen or Jin Yunpeng or Wu Peifu as the governor of the Soviet Union and concurrently as a patrol envoy.However, Zhang Zuolin strongly recommended Zhang Xun as the Soviet governor and tour envoy.The direct line was afraid of other disputes caused by long nights and dreams, and in order to boycott Zhang Xun, he instructed the Beijing government to announce on December 3, 9 that Wang Shizhen was the patrol envoy of Jiangsu, Anhui and Jiangxi, Qi Xieyuan was acting as the governor of Jiangsu, and He Fenglin was the envoy of the Songhu guard. He Fenglin's military envoy was recommended by Qi Xieyuan. Since Lu Yongxiang was transferred to the governor of Zhejiang, he could not inherit the position of the military envoy due to qualifications and political reasons.Because both the Zhi and Anhui lines competed for the territory of Shanghai, the governors of the Soviet Union, from Feng Guozhang to Li Chun, wanted to take back Shanghai and bring it into the scope of Jiangsu, and they were unwilling to leave a tail of the Anhui line within the jurisdiction of Jiangsu.Now that the Anhui Clique has been overthrown, the Zhi Clan can seize the opportunity to take back the territory in Shanghai. However, Qi Xieyuan was overjoyed to be promoted to the post of Governor of Su because of his meager qualifications. Li Chunzhi died, and the Shanghai Peace Conference ended without a problem.As early as June 6, 9, Cen Chunxuan, the president of the Guangzhou military government, dismissed Tang Shaoyi, the general representative of the South, and replaced him with Wen Zongyao.In the first year of the Republic of China, Tang was exempted from Yuan when he was the general representative of the northern peace talks, which is exactly the same as being exempted from Cen as the general representative of the southern peace talks this time.After Wen Zongyao arrived in Shanghai, like Wang Yitang, the general representative of the North, no one paid attention to him. Soon Cen Chunxuan himself collapsed, and of course he had no status.In the era of Zhu Qiqian, the general representative of the north, his communication expenses included gambling equipment and pollen.There are more shady things about Wang Yitang’s use of money. The last general representative was Li Chun. Li Chun had always played the role of the old man of peace during the Civil War. In fact, there is no such thing as peace talks between the North and the South, because the dispute between the North and the South has become a war between the South and the South, and a war between the North and the North. After Li Chun's death, Qi Xieyuan, the successor governor, issued 470,355 yuan for the representatives of the peace talks after 8 years and June. The incense candles, ingots, sparrows, poker and other items used are all included.This reimbursement is not surprising in the Beiyang government, but it is really ironic that it is listed in the service fee of the peace talks representative.The Beijing Audit Court picked out those that could not be reimbursed, and Su Du and the Audit Court fought a big lawsuit. Zhang Xun and Zhang Zuolin are relatives of their sons and daughters. When Zhiwan fought fiercely, Duan Qirui accused Cao Zhang of colluding with Zhang Xun to carry out the restoration. Zhang Xun had a telegram (July 20, 9) to defend the falsehood. The telegram said: "In the paper, Cao Zhang and Zhang Xun colluded with Zhang Xun to go out of Beijing to seek restoration and so on in the report. It is very surprising. Xun returned from Dingsi, and it was published here three times. Regardless of foreign affairs, Duan's family recently proclaimed soldiers, and the capital was shaken. House and family relocation is the same as every household. Xun has no papers about resettlement in Beijing, and he is guilty of leaving Beijing privately! As for the past, Zaixun felt old thoughts, and Entu reported that Bolang’s cone ended with one blow. During the meeting in Xuzhou, the representative of the Duan family attended the meeting and agreed. The facts are in view of everyone. The husband’s matter was raised, but the Duan family suddenly disagreed. He will be seventy years old, but he wants to be a peaceful citizen and worship the gift of the republic forever. … " After the Zhiwan War, Zhang Zuolin had a great right to speak. He had repeatedly guaranteed Zhang Xun to be the patrol envoy of the Yangtze River or Shanxi and Gansu. For the governor of Anhui. Zhang Zuolin recommended Zhang Xun as the tour envoy, partly because of his relatives, partly because he wanted to use him to expand the territory of the Feng family, and he was repeatedly rejected by the telegraph insurance, which also implicated his personal face. Not only Xu Shichang and Jin Yunpeng were eclipsed by anger, but even Cao Kun had to retreat. On January 26, 2010, the Beijing government sent Zhang Xun to supervise Rehe Forest Reclamation. Zhang Xun was angry and quit. He said: "I can only lead soldiers in my life, but I have never learned how to plant trees." Xu Shichang sent Wang Naibin to Tianjin to persuade him, It seems that Zhang Xun is not as good as the common people, what a sigh! Zhang Zuolin often stayed at Zhang Xun's home when he went to Tianjin. Zhang Zuolin's entourage, such as Yuan Jinkai, Jin Liang, Shang Yanying, Tan Guohuan, etc., were all old people of the Qing Dynasty, especially Shang Yanying, who was an old Hanlin of the Qing Dynasty. The copywriting was introduced to Zhang Zuolin by Zhang Xun. Zhang Xun, Bo Rehe, and Lin Ken supervised and failed to do anything, which made the Beijing government unable to account for Zhang Zuolin. Therefore, Xu Shichang and Jin Yunpeng repeatedly explained to the king outside the customs: "Shaoxuan (Zhang Xun's character) committed a major crime of overthrowing the Republic of China. We have always It is unreasonable to use him in a tone of voice, first let him be the supervisor of Lin Ken as a transition, and then transfer to other important positions in the future so that you won't be afraid of gossip." But Xu and Jin were afraid that their direct lineage would be disgusted, so they explained to Cao and Wu: "We use Zhang Xun to supervise Lin Ken just to save Yuting (Zhang Zuolin's) face. It is a last resort, please don't get me wrong." Zhang Zuolin was not all fond of Zhang Xun, his in-laws. Half of them were to support Zhang Xun as a party member to deal with his immediate family. Therefore, he also recommended Zhang Xun as a tour envoy for the Cha, Re, and Sui special zones. Satisfied with being the king of the Northeast, he also intends to expand his power from the northeast to the northwest, bringing the three special zones of Chahar, Rehe and Suiyuan into his kingdom.
