Who can find the photo of Beiyang General Xu Shuzheng? ...

Xu Shuzheng (1880-1925) was born in Xiaoxian County, Jiangsu Province, and was a general of Beiyang Anhui Department. I was a scholar when I was a teenager. 1905 was sent to the Japanese NCO School. After graduation, he served as the Military Commissioner of the Sixth Town and the General Staff of the First Army in Duan. 19 12 served as director of the military science department of the war department. When Yuan Shikai proclaimed himself emperor, he was ousted by Yuan Shikai because he advised Duan to boycott. 19 16 Yuan Shikai became the secretary-general of the State Council after his death. 19 17 "zhang xun restoration Incident" that instigated Zhang Xun to expel Li. Later, he planned the "Rebel Army" campaign against Zhang Xun, and later served as the chief and second minister of the army, advocating the unification of China by force. 19 19, as the northwest frontier defense ambassador and commander-in-chief of the northwest frontier defense force. 19 19 10 sent troops to outer Mongolia,191017, outer Mongolia officially autonomous and returned to China. 1920 after the direct Anhui war, Anhui failed, and Xu Shuzheng was wanted and listed as the core figure of Anfu political group. After that, he fled to Shanghai for refuge with the help of the Japanese. Later, he served as commander of the allied forces of Songhu and Shanghai in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War, and went into exile in Europe after his failure. Duan came to power again on 1925 and called Xu Shuzheng back to China. 1925 On February 29th, he was shot by Feng Yuxiang's men at Langfang Railway Station.

1926 65438+February 29th

Warlord Xu Shuzheng was assassinated in Langfang.

On February 29th, 1926 1926, Xu Shuzheng, who is famous for his cunning and changeability, was shot by Feng Yuxiang's men at Langfang Railway Station. Xu Shuzheng is one of the core figures of Anfu political group. The soul figure known as Duan. Xu and Feng have always had contradictions in their political views. 19 16, Feng was dismissed as the brigade commander of the 16th Huncheng Brigade; 19 17, Feng's old acquaintance Lu was trapped and killed. The two sides have deep grievances.

In February 65438, Xu Zi returned to China from overseas. After learning the news of Xu going to Beijing, Lu asked Feng to help him avenge his father. Feng set aside twenty soldiers from the pistol team, disguised as an attendant, and waited for an opportunity. Because Xu is very strict, he can't start, so he asked to announce Xu's itinerary. On the 29th, after finishing work, Jae-kyeong Seo was scheduled to return to Tianjin by bus on the same day. Deer telegraphed Feng Yuxiang in Zhangjiakou, and Feng ordered that "the way to deal with Xu Shuzheng is to arrest him and shoot him!" Deer immediately contact Fengtai Station, Xu Che has passed Fengtai. So he ordered Langfang people to stab Xu, and Zhang made the staff wait at the East Station. When Xu arrived in Langfang, he ordered his men to stall Xu, who was shot when he left the station. Lu immediately sent someone to tell Lu Chengwu to get to Langfang Station overnight. On 30th, every newspaper published the news that Lu revenged his father.

After Yuan Shikai's death, the general trend of foreign countries was divided into two and two into three. Second, the direct Anhui department, with Feng as the head, Cao Kun as the deputy, and the three governors of the Yangtze River as the backbone. Duan is the governor of Anhui, Xu Shuzheng is the center, and Jin, Duan, Ni Sichong, Zhang, Fu and Wu Guangxin are all generals. The second and third is to add another Feng system, and then it comes from above, which is three. Headed by Zhang, Feng Department is the mastermind, with Guo Songling, Wu, and as the backbone.

After Feng's death, Cao Kun became the leader directly, while the three Yangtze River governors at that time all obeyed Cao's command. Cao Zhi was able to sit on the Diaoyutai thanks to his beloved general, Wu Fupei, a dark horse from Beiyang. Although Wu is a teacher, his every move has attracted national attention. He was invincible in Hunan from the beginning. At that time, instead of fighting, Chen Bing prayed to God for peace. He can grasp the center of the current situation and make good use of it to win the sympathy and support of the broad masses of people. Because he can sing and dance well, the soldiers in the north and south all look at him with new eyes. Cao Kun is his first mate. As a result, a rising tide lifts all boats, and he became the leader of his immediate family.

Duan could have been Yuan Shikai's successor and the leader of the whole Beiyang school. Because he was too headstrong, unable to tolerate things, and trusted Xu Shuzheng, he lost the support of most people and had to consolidate the Anhui department with self-respect. Of course, Xu Shuzheng is a character, but he is too overbearing and outspoken. He made the greatest contribution to Duan and had the greatest influence. As for Fu, Wu Guangxin and Zhang, they are all burdens of Duan, neither talents nor war generals.

Of course, the rise of Bong Department occupied a geographical position, and when Duan was fighting Feng, Xu Shuzheng offered to pull Zhang and Bong Army against the direct line, which gave Bong Department a chance to grow and develop. Zhang He took advantage of each other in the process of mutual utilization, so his ambition also increased. This is a combination of interests. When he feels that his own strength can go his own way, he doesn't want to be at the mercy of Anhui or even liquidate Xu Shuzheng.

Duan decided to use Japanese loans and Japanese military supplies to train a new army (the army participating in the war) as his capital for unifying the world in the future. This is the same as Yuan Shikai's distrust of Beiyang generals and the establishment of a "model army" before he proclaimed himself emperor. Duan established a war army outside the Beiyang faction, with the same motivation and purpose as Yuan Shikai's model army.

In June of 8, the participating troops were renamed as border guards, and later developed into 3 divisions and 4 mixed brigades. After Outer Mongolia was eliminated, Xu Shuzheng pretended to be the "Northwest King" and wanted to compete with the "Northeast King" Zhang Yi, forcing Zhang to unite with his immediate family. Zhang and Cao Kun were at odds, but now they are United to deal with Xu Shuzheng, because Xu Shuzheng's past record is terrible. He once killed the immediate family members of Lu's behind-the-scenes strategist, once wooed Zhang's subordinates and deliberately colluded with Cao's beloved general.

Because Cao Zhang United against Xu Shuzheng's * * *, Zhili, Jiangsu, Hubei and Jiangxi provinces and seven northeastern provinces formed an anti-Anhui alliance, which was formed between autumn and winter in eight years.

The Alliance of Seven Provinces received spiritual support and encouragement from Xu Shichang. When Yuan Shikai was alive, Xu Shichang decided that Xu Shuzheng was a terrible person, and the two families never lived in harmony.

At the beginning, the alliance of seven provinces did not oppose Duan. Their slogan is "Stand aside", which means to oppose Xu Shuzheng around Duan. They hope Duan can kiss saints and stay away from villains. This so-called villain refers to Xu Shuzheng. One thing can be proved. In September, 2008, Cao and Zhang urged Dai to form a cabinet. Jin is also Duan's close friend, but Jin opposes Xu. Therefore, Jin was supported not only by Cao and Zhang, but also by Xu Shichang.

Where's Duan He can't get rid of Xu Shuzheng because of external pressure. Political composition is sometimes fragile and sometimes difficult. Duan and are inseparable, because Duan's new "border guards" were established and mastered by Xu, and the Anfu system was controlled by Xu. If we get rid of Xu Shuzheng, it means disarming, which is equivalent to "self-destruction of the Great Wall".

Because Duan couldn't accept the request of the seven-province alliance, the situation deteriorated out of control, and the purpose of the seven-province alliance could not be achieved, so he had to go to extremes.

Unfortunately, Ni Sichong, the general of Anhui Department, is dying, which seems to be writing on the wall. When dealing with Feng, Du Juntuan took Ni Sichong as the pioneer. He succeeded Zhang Xun in supervising Anhui and took over Zhang's troops. In Anhui, it is much better than Wu Guangxin and Fu Qiang. Now our situation is in jeopardy, and Duan seems to have lost his right hand. Because of Ni's critical illness, Ni's subordinates also wanted to seize the handsome seal, ordered the caravan to run Anhui military affairs, and wanted to send Duan to succeed Anhui overseers. Xu Shichang advocated the use of Huai Army veteran Jiang Guiti. Duan Xu disagreed, so Lao Xu decided that Ni Sichong would not die, and there was no shortage of people and no shortage of people.

Wu is the pioneer of the seven provinces alliance. 1in the autumn of 988, Wu repeatedly called for the withdrawal of the defense and the return to the north, but the Beijing government ignored it.

On June/July/July/October/July/July, 2009, Cao Kun sent a telegram to Beijing, in which Wu insisted on withdrawing his defense. The telegram first said, "I am in Hunan Province, and I have been here for two years. I have repeatedly asked to withdraw my defense, but I won't allow it. " Then I emphasized the hardships of all the soldiers in the direct army who defended for a long time and owed their salaries. Finally, he said sadly, "Looking north, kowtowing, weeping and begging".

Wu's telegram was sent to Cao Kun first, and Cao was asked to pass it on. Cao thought Wu's telegram was too dull, so he added two sentences at the end of the telegram: "The dead are the souls of the lower reaches of the spring, and the living are hungry in a foreign land."

When the Beijing government received Cao's telegram (17), it didn't speak, but Jin asked Duan for instructions and Duan didn't say anything, so Jin had to keep silent.

On October 30th, 65438/KLOC-0, the southern military government secretly gave Wu a start-up fee of 600,000 yuan, of which 300,000 yuan was paid in advance and the remaining 300,000 yuan was reserved for the start-up fee.

Wu's withdrawal from defense is extremely serious for Anhui Province. Therefore, Duan decided to prevent Wu Jun from returning to the north. In mid-February, Duan instructed some soldiers in Henan Province to oppose Zhao Ya, the overseer of Henan Province, and used Zhao Ya as an excuse to connive at his brother's selling officials and titles, causing public anger and forcing Jin to replace Zhao Ya. It's true that Zhao Ya didn't do well in Henan, but Duan's actions were completely selfish. He attached great importance to the territory of Henan, because Wu Jun retreated northward and Henan was the only place to pass. Zhao Ya's army "Hongwei Army" belongs to Jiang Guiti's system of Huai Army. Although their troops are thick, they don't necessarily follow Zhao Ya's command. Therefore, Duan intends to send his wife Wu Guangxin to succeed the governor of Henan, and the secretary of Anfu House of Representatives to succeed the governor of Henan. The personnel order issued by Duan Mingjin's cabinet ordered Wu Guangxin to lead the garrison troops in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River to Xinyang quickly to fight jointly with the Henan anti-Zhao army.

Wu Guangxin is the police commander-in-chief in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

Gal, Zhao Ya was forced to Liangshan. Zhao Ya had adopted a neutral attitude in the struggle between wisdom and all. Now for his own problems, he wants to join the anti-section front. When he learned that Duan sent Wu Guangxin to embezzle Henan, he transferred and Chang Desheng to Lunan section to concentrate, ready to fight and resist.

So the seven-province alliance added another province and became an eight-province alliance.

It is a pity that Wu Guangxin's dream of being an alternate governor of Hunan for many years has failed, and the governor's move in Sichuan has failed. Now he has opportunities in Henan, but the future is also full of difficulties.

On February 23, Wu issued a telegram opposing the change. His telegram was very exciting:

"Xinjiang collectors are not private property, and the regime is not a series of businesses. Anfu jumped the beam and the platform breathed a sigh of relief. Extremely vicious and difficult to write. A little bloody and salty, I don't want to be with * * *. ..... Wu Guangxin is now the commander-in-chief of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and his life is long! Don't take an ambitious one like this. Public security is rampant, and everyone is in danger. ..... The measures and facilities adopted by the government in recent years are against public opinion. Those who are hated by the people of the whole country will protect them, and those who are admired by the people of the whole country will crowd them out. Those who obey me will survive, and those who oppose me will die. For example, Manchu did not dare to do it, Xiangcheng refused to do it, and the government brazenly did it! Zeng Yisi thinks about the authority of force. Why is it more like Manchu and Xiangcheng? Whether the size of a country can be supported by a department; So many officials in Xinjiang, can they all be occupied by one party? Trillions of people can be whipped by one person! Do what you want to do, and you will see that your heart is tired and your life is clumsy. ..... I implore my president and prime minister not to be used by Anfu, to set Wu Guangxin's new army back to the original defense, and to declare that it will never be easy to cross the border to avoid war. "

Zhao Yaben has nothing to do with Wu, but now Wu supports him, and his heart is naturally grateful to Wu. So, on March 4, Zhao Youdian replied to Wu Shuo: "Teacher Wu called me yesterday and I want to cry." In fact, Wu does not love Zhao, but he is afraid that Duan's clique will get Henan, and his road to the north will be blocked.

On February 26th, the State Council passed the proposal to appoint Wu Guangxin as the governor of Henan Province and Wang Yinchuan as the governor of Henan Province. When the Cabinet sent someone to pick up the President's seal, Xu Shichang only agreed to reassign the Governor of Henan instead of replacing the Governor of Henan. He claimed to have lived in Weihui for a long time and was an elder in Henan. He will never allow the people of Henan to suffer from war because of the change of governors.

Jin reported the disagreement to Duan, who was furious and scolded Jin in his face: "How did you become a prime minister, you useless thing?"

Kim is in the most difficult position at this moment. He was born in Anhui, and Lao Duan is his patron. When he was prime minister, he was above ten thousand people, and the evolution of the situation made him involuntarily unable to stay in Anhui.

On February 29th, 2009, Kim resigned again.

On March 1 day, Anfu Department launched a cabinet reshuffle again, and invited Wang to quickly return to Beijing to preside over the movement. At this time, in order to win over Xu Shichang, Anfu Department agreed to form a cabinet with Zhou Shumo proposed by Xu Shichang. Xu Shuzheng also solemnly said to Lao Xu: "If Zhou Pu forms a cabinet, Shuzheng is willing to serve as the chief of the army and assist the president." Zhou Shumo's words are few and simple, and he is nicknamed Shen Guan's old man. Beiyang people call him simple and old. In the past, Xu Shichang proposed the Zhou Shu Modular Pavilion, which was firmly opposed by Anfu Department. Now, in order to overthrow Kim, he is willing to accept Xu Shichang's candidate. At that time, if Zhou Shumo formed a cabinet, it was difficult to choose the leader of the army, because Jin was the self-appointed leader of the army. If his cabinet collapses, Kim will naturally not continue to be the leader of the army. If Xiao Xucheng becomes the chief of the new cabinet, it will mean that this new cabinet is very powerful.

On March 3, Anfu failed to attend the State Council in order to overthrow the Cabinet. The three directors of the Department-Finance Director, Transportation Director Zeng and Justice Director Zhu Shen. The next day, he even resigned in order to overthrow the cabinet. At this time, one of the charges that Anfu attacked Jin was that Jin signed a Sino-Japanese military agreement and was an ungrateful traitor.

Duan and Anfu are two in one, and one thing is two. Since they began to overthrow the cabinet, it is equivalent to officially excluding Kim. Surprisingly, Kim also has his support. He got the support of eight governors headed by Cao Kun and Zhang. They called on Kim to stay in the cabinet and were willing to support him. Xu Shichang also expressed the firm attitude of keeping the gold cabinet. Faced with this huge opposition, Duan reluctantly expressed his intention to keep the gold cabinet, and agreed to suspend the issuance of the book.

On March 4th, Kim returned to the State Council to continue his post, and Duan ordered the three generals of Anfu Department to cancel their resignations and cooperate with Kim's cabinet.

On this day, Zhao Ya, the governor of Henan Province, sent a surprising reply to Wu, saying that Zhao Ya had openly turned to the direct line and joined the seven-province alliance, which was later expanded to the eight-province alliance. Because of this change, Zhao Ya seems to have nothing to fear. The Beijing government must also promise Cao Zhang and others not to replace the Governor of Henan. And Cao Kun also explained Zhao Ya's invasion. His explanation is interesting. He said that Yu Du mobilized troops to reduce the number of troops. Now that it has been clearly issued, it should be transferred back to the original defense.

Zhao Ya also assured the Beijing government that it was the idea of all groups to mobilize the border guards in Henan Province, and once the overall situation was decided, all troops would be withdrawn to the original defense.

Du Yu of Wu Guangxin failed again. His resentment was completely concentrated on his famous family Wu, so on March 20, he had a telegram, denouncing Wu: "He is partial to the younger generation, confused in affairs, and has repeatedly made statements that are out of position, and he is not measured, arrogant and obviously has ulterior motives."

The alliance of eight provinces was so powerful that it won the battle as soon as it came out, so that the Jin cabinet was not overthrown by the Anfu department and the personnel order of Henan Yidu was invalid.

Jin's support for the prime minister made him more intolerant of Lao Duan. Lao Duan's best friend thought that Jin was ungrateful, conspired against the enemy and murdered his mentor. In fact, it is not Kim's intention to do this, but also the situation.

Jin and Zhang are children in-laws. Kim doesn't have to ask Zhang, Zhang has to back Kim up. As a result, Zhang's support angered Duan even more. On March 65438+4, 2004, Zhang sent Wang Naibin to Beijing and wrote a personal letter to Duan, urging Duan to trust Jin, not to listen to the villain and alienate Jin. There is a saying in the book: "Don't be petty when begging for the throne, lest you be tired of virtue." . This letter added to Duan's anger, and Duan thought that it was unforgivable for Jin to invite outsiders to intercede for him. It happened that Jin came to pay his respects at this time, but Duan refused to answer the phone when adding fuel to the fire. Kim certainly doesn't know why. The next day, Jin came to see him again, and unconsciously went straight into the inner room. He is the four donkey kong of Duan, so he can be a scholar at will. When Duan sees it, he scolds. Duan said, "You have become the Prime Minister. Why are you so unreasonable? Do you think you can scare me by foreign aid? " Do you still have me in your eyes? "Jin Jingang was scratching his head, wronged shouted. He said, "How can I ask the outside world for help? I am by no means such an ungrateful villain. " Duan was even more angry when he heard this, so he took out a new letter in the drawer and said loudly, "You said no, what is this? You still have to lie to my face." "

Kim took it and saw that it was a letter from her in-laws. This letter is entirely for himself, not asking for help. What is that? I am speechless for it.

Duan said angrily, "Tell Zhang that he is a man. He's getting more and more ridiculous. He openly dared to interfere in the family affairs of Beiyang school. Does he deserve to be a Beiyang school? What's his background? How did he get here today? He is just a horse thief. If I didn't promote him, I would be where I am today! I don't know my weight at all, and it's getting more and more decent. " Jin stood in front of Duan, neither walking nor sitting, and waited for Duan to scold enough before bowing away.

Duan is really angry this time. Not only is he angry with Kim, but even Xu Shuzheng won't listen to him. He stayed in Tuanhe, claiming that he would never ask about the cabinet again.

/kloc-On March 7th, 0/4, another incident happened, which was a news from Gong Yan, the organ newspaper of Anfu Department. The news said: "On March 7, Zhang, the second minister of the War Department, called on Aoki, the Japanese adviser of the government, and said that the Kim Cabinet was willing to negotiate directly with Japan on the Shandong issue." Zhang is Kim's brain trust. This news is a conspiracy to frame others. He wanted to transfer Anfu's idea of negotiating directly with Japan to Kim, making Kim the object of national resentment.

According to the news, members of the Anfu Department raised questions at the Anfu meeting and criticized Jin for conspiring to betray the country. It seems how patriotic Anfu is to resist Japan. In fact, everyone knows that Anfu is a pro-Japanese department. Now, in order to crack down on political enemies, I put my hat on someone else's head. It's really secretive!

In late February, Anfu had a plan to make Duan as vice president to boycott Xu Shichang. During this period, Lao Duan was very angry, and no one dared to report this opinion to Duan. Sure enough, Duan immediately refused after knowing the news. In Duan's mind, even president is not in his eyes. Why is he interested in the vice president?

Duan really wants to use the vice president as bait to make a political deal. In the past, there was a plan to push Cao Kun, so in early March, the Anfu Department was instructed to elect Cao as the vice president to save the political crisis caused by the withdrawal of the troops directly under it. In other words, if Cao Kun accepts to be vice president, he must ensure that Wu will not withdraw his defense. Cao Kun was not interested in the vice president at this moment, so the governor of the Eight-Province Alliance also instructed the provincial congressmen not to attend the vice president recommendation meeting. Although the Anfu National Assembly held a meeting to elect the vice president, it failed twice.

On March 27th, Zhang celebrated his birthday in Shenyang. The governors of all the provinces in the Union sent representatives to celebrate his birthday. Held a secret meeting at the same time, decided to three points:

(1) Support Jin to remain as prime minister, and do not object to Duan.

(2) Anfu is a traitor and should be dissolved.

(3) Ni Sichong, the governor of Anhui Province, was unable to take care of his affairs because of his long illness, so he put Zhang Xun as the governor of Anhui Province (according to Zhang Xun, Zhang Xun was also Zhang's in-laws).

After the Shenyang meeting, representatives of provincial governors who went to Shenyang to celebrate Zhang's birthday came to Baoding together with Zhang's representatives. This is Cao Kun's stronghold. They nominally attended the Baoding memorial meeting, but in fact they were called by Cao to attend the Baoding meeting. The Baoding meeting was similar to the Shenyang meeting, and decided on three points:

(1) Support Jin to remain as prime minister, and do not object to Duan.

(2) It is in favor of withdrawing the straight army from the north, but it is necessary to instruct Wu to reach a tacit understanding with the Confederate army to ensure that the Confederate army will not take the opportunity to advance after the withdrawal of the straight army.

(3) declare Anfu a traitor and a disaster, and order its dissolution.

From the decisions of Shenyang Conference and Baoding Conference, it can be seen that although Feng and his immediate family formed an alliance, they did not support each other in their respective interests. Zhang wants to support in-laws Zhang Xun to return to Anhui and build new strength for himself, while Cao Kun is concerned about withdrawing troops directly under his command.

After taking refuge in Tuanhe, Duan closed the door to welcome guests. When he was in Beijing, Xu Shichang and Kim felt that everything should be asked, and it was very difficult. Now, after he went to Tuanhe, he didn't ask anything, and Xu Jin felt extremely inconvenient. Therefore, he was invited back to his private house in Fu Xue Hutong again and again, so that he could receive education nearby. Duan resolutely declined. Xu Shichang invited Wang Shizhen, a Beiyang veteran who lived in seclusion in Zhengding, to come to Beijing to mediate the political tide. On April 4th, Wang Shizhen went to Tuanhe, and Wang said to Duan, "Jin Yiqing (Jin) is your man. They support the Kim Cabinet, but they support you. What are you angry about! " Duan was quite moved. He once went back to Beijing on April 7, but Anfu people surrounded him and reported some annoying news to him, so he returned to Tuanhe on April 8.

Cao Zhang's joint defection has become a reality. Although we don't talk about reversal, what can actually break the political deadlock at that time is reversal. In the reverse operation, there must be an actual actor, and this role naturally falls to Wu. Wu's first move was to withdraw troops from the north. He sent a series of telegrams to Beijing, such as:

"The battle of Hunan and Hubei, after several battles, all the soldiers died, and the casualties were compassionate. Tired people should also be comforted. According to the brigade commander's petition, they may have hemoptysis or get wet, and the tragic situation is unbearable. Today has been a long time, and the sun looks north. I can't wait, but I can't stop ... "

"The guards are tired and bitter, and it is difficult to leave anything. I request permission to withdraw them to comfort the public. "

The news of Wu's final request to withdraw electricity spread most widely, and the electric cloud said:

"Away from southern Hunan, the melon period is two sessions, and three years of relief is not a speed. How dare you cook beans with a shovel wall? Now that a truce has been reached, the north and the south belong to the same family, not foreign enemies. Why do you have to defend them heavily? Can't fight for sovereignty outside and set up a defense line inside? "

Duan never looked down on this scholar-born teacher again. He carefully studied Wu Shi's retreat and thought: (1) When Wu Shi retreated, the Confederate army took advantage of it. Since he has no useful soldiers, it will naturally cause serious consequences. (2) Wu's withdrawal from Baoding will pose a great threat to Beijing, especially since Wu is a dangerous person.

He began by procrastinating, playing dumb and not answering. Then I saw that the telegrams of Cao and Wu were getting tighter and tighter, which made it impossible for the War Department to withdraw its defense when it was re-wired. Finally, he knew Wu Shiyou's determination to retreat automatically, so he advised him to retreat slowly with the plan of delaying troops.

At the beginning of March, Wu Pai sent more than 700 people to escort the families of his troops back to the north, and ordered the soldiers not to ask for leave without reason, not to take credit from businessmen, and not to ask the people for anything. And call Zhang to prepare to send troops to receive direct defense. In fact, he has made an appointment with a secret. As soon as the defense is withdrawn, a secret will take over the defense.

Duan had to deal with this problem carefully. On March 18, 2008, he secretly came to Baoding and asked Cao Kun to stop withdrawing troops automatically. At the same time, he instructed five garrison divisions near Beijing: Qu Tongfeng, Chen, Wei and Lian He, and refused to move the directly affiliated military division to Beijing on the grounds of insufficient barracks.

At this time, Wu has sent staff officer Wang to Beijing to arrange the location of the garrison. After Wang and others arrived in Beijing, they called Wu to ask about the truth. All the armories were stationed by border guards, and Wu was furious.

Wu is naturally cautious about quitting. It's a long way from Hengzhou to Baoding. First, it must pass through Changyue District and Zhang's sphere of influence. Wu doesn't put Zhang in front of him. From Changyue to Hubei to Henan, it is the region of Wang Zhanyuan and Zhao Ya. Both Wang and Zhao have joined the eight-province alliance, so naturally they will not plot against him, and they will stop him along the way.

At that time, outsiders were worried about Wu, thinking that he could not attack alone for a long time, and it was a bold attempt to venture north from thousands of miles away, but he took his time, just like riding a thousand miles alone, crossing five barriers and cutting six generals.

Wan Zhi Group used various methods to deal with the enemy. On April 23rd, Lu Yongxiang, a Zhejiang warlord, suddenly proposed to abolish the warlord system and was willing to implement it first in Zhejiang, which was a big news. Warlords in the early years of the Republic of China, like the buffer towns in the late Tang Dynasty, hindered the progress of the country and were hated by the people all over the country. Now a governor has proposed to abolish the governor, which is really popular. Is Lu Yongxiang really so obedient to public opinion? Of course not. It's just a tactic of Anhui Department between the two factions. Lu Yongxiang came out to test the direct line. On April 30, Cao Kun also played along, electrified in favor of abolishing the governor, and further advocated banning soldiers from joining the party. This so-called party refers to the Anfu system. Cao Kun, of course, is not really willing to abolish the governor, just don't want to let Anhui department above the former, so also sing a hymn.

Xu Shichang hoped that these warlords with military power would step down, knowing that their words were against their promises, but they also ended up with a logical conclusion, making a big fuss, electrifying and rewarding the "high opinion" of the deposed overseers, and suggesting that after the deposed overseers, the provincial armies would be directly under the jurisdiction of the Central Operations Department, and the provincial overseers would have the right to supervise the provincial armies.

The central issue of the battle between Anhui system and anti-Anhui system is the cabinet. Although Jin is a trusted general, Duan regards Jin as a thorn in his side, because the anti-Anhui alliance group maintains the Jin cabinet. Both Anhui and Anfu departments are determined to overthrow the cabinet of "collaborating with the enemy to seek Anhui", preferring political opponents to come to power rather than this "traitor" sitting in the position of prime minister. From the end of February to the beginning of May, this problem has been struggling.

One day, Xu (Xu Shichang's brother), director of Jinpu Railway Bureau, visited Zeng, the traffic director. After talking about business, Xu left to go, and once grabbed Xu and asked him to sit down for a while. After sitting for a while, he suddenly said, "Let's go to Tuanhe to see Duan Gong." At this time, I closed the door in Tuanhe, and all the dignitaries in Beijing went to Tuanhe to wait for me, so Xu Ziran accepted Zeng's proposal and they went to Tuanhe in the same car.

After seeing Duan and Xu together, Duan seems to be in a good mood this day, casually chatting about the weather and other topics. Then Xu had an accident, and he suddenly said, "Director Xu's visit is to convey the president's opinion. The president thinks that there is something wrong with Kim's cabinet. Please supervise and signal Yiqing Jin to step down on his own. " It's hard to deny this when Xu faces Duan. I saw Duan with a face of lost face and a kind look. He nodded and said, "Very good, very good."

Two days later, Xu Shichang received a letter from Duan, which said, "Your brother came to talk about your last wish and wanted to leave." After reading the letter, Xu was puzzled and immediately asked Xu to know the situation. Xu reported the incident to his brother with a wry smile. He said: "We were always invited to Tuanhe, only saying that we would go to the supervision department. After seeing the supervisor, the general manager said to himself like this. I didn't say a word, and I didn't know beforehand. Not a word afterwards. Almost equal to being raped once. "

Xu Shichang was very angry and thought Duan had gone too far, so he wrote back to Duan and flatly denied any attempt to reshuffle the cabinet.
