Chapter 64 Chapter 6 Sun Wen's memory is not very good

Yuan Shikai was delighted to see the councilors resigning from the cabinet one after another, and ran out to do work for the councilors one by one. This cabinet is just a decoration, and the actual work is still done by him, Yuan Shikai. Lu Zhengxiang loves to argue, and you councilors also love to argue. Why are you talking nonsense, why do you want to overthrow the cabinet? After all, Lu Zhengxiang's cabinet was finally approved.But after this incident, Lu Zhengxiang was very sad. Everyone was chatting in the Senate, but they didn't take him to play. When he was sad, Sun Wen led the alliance brigade to arrive.Lu Zhengxiang had no choice but to brace himself up and greet him.

Yuan Shikai attached great importance to Sun Wen's coming to Beijing. He vacated the former presidential palace and repaired it so that Sun Wen could settle down, while he moved to the State Council in Iron Lion Alley to work. When Sun and Yuan met each other, they suddenly felt sympathy for each other, and they felt that they hated seeing each other later. Yuan Shikai said: I don't think the mountain in the picture is so loud—meaning, I didn't expect Sun Yat-sen to be so upright and bright. Sun Wen said: President Yuan can be kind to you, and he has absolutely no intention of being disloyal to the Republic of China.The people must not be suspicious of President Yuan and wantonly attack, so that mutual sincerity will not be satisfied, and nothing can be done, and turn to incite President Yuan to do evil.What Sun Wen meant was: You have to be careful about Yuan Shikai, be careful coaxing him, if you coax him well, he will do good things for you, and he is a good person.If you don't coax him well or piss him off, you'll be in trouble.

Then Sun Wen had a meeting with Yuan Shikai, and the host and guest had a pleasant exchange. Sun Wen said: "Old Yuan, let's divide the work. You are in charge of training troops, and I am in charge of repairing railways. You come to train an army of 1 million, and I will build China's railways." to 200,000 miles.what do you think? Yuan Shikai was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "The construction of the railway... You can build it as long as you want, but I know about military training. It is not easy to train elite soldiers, numbering in the millions." .

When Sun Wen left, Yuan Shikai said to the people around him: This Sun Dapao really dares to brag. He dared to talk about building a 200,000-mile railway. Alas, after all, he suffered from not having done any specific work. What Yuan Shikai said was absolutely correct.In fact, until 2002, 53 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, China's railway had just reached 70,000 kilometers.By comparison, you can see that what Mr. Sun Wen said is a bit big. However, Sun Wen lacked practical experience in government affairs, and had no idea that he was talking big. He passionately said to Member Tang Yi:

President Yuan is very talented, and I hope that he will be able to train millions of troops after ten years as president. At that time, the 200,000-mile railway I built will also be completed, and the annual income will be 80 million. I can meet with other countries. Looking at this passage, one can tell that Sun Wen doesn't have a very good memory.Yuan Shikai explained to him earlier that it is difficult to train soldiers with millions of troops.But in the blink of an eye, when he arrived at Sun Wen's place, millions had already turned into millions. If Lao Yuan heard this, how embarrassing he would be.

Then Sun Wen said: To maintain the status quo, I am not as good as Yuan, and to plan for the future, Yuan is not as good as me.For China's current consideration, it is still appropriate to have Yuan as the president within the next ten years. I will devote myself to social undertakings. After ten years, the people want me to come out to serve, and it is not too late. This passage follows the previous one.Judging from the logic of these two paragraphs, it must be that after Sun Wen said the previous paragraph, Councilor Tang Yi reminded Sun Wen something, nothing more than: Old Sun, can we stop bragging?So Sun Wen finally realized that everyone thought he was talking big, so he moved the topic to a distant ten years later, saying: To maintain the status quo, I am not as good as Yuan, and to plan for the future, Yuan is not as good as me... In this way, everyone will Can't argue with him anymore.

On the evening of August 27, 1912, Yuan Shikai set up a grand banquet and sincerely invited Sun Wen to the banquet.
