    Li Chun suddenly turned around and glared angrily: "Chief of Staff Xiangtao, what do you mean? Advising me to betray the commander-in-chief?"

    Ding Xiaolan quickly defended: "How could Xiaolan not know the governor's loyalty to the commander-in-chief? How could he dare to persuade the governor-general to betray the commander-in-chief? It's just that I understand a little about the principle of 'if the general is away, the emperor's orders will not be accepted'. I privately speculated that it should be  The situation in the Gyeongsang Province is now tense, so the commander-in-chief issued the order to withdraw troops and return to the north. However, Jiangxi is thousands of miles away from the capital. If there was something urgent, we would have settled down long ago by rushing back so far; and there are currently four or five troops stationed around the Gyeongsang Province.  If we can't even deal with them with a force of division or above, it's probably useless for us to rush over. If it's just scabies, why do we have to go back and forth? If Li Xiehe (Li Liejun) kills him, won't we still have to go back and forth?  Are you going to do another southern expedition?"

    Li Chun was speechless, seeming to be thinking about whether Ding Xiaolan was right.

    Ding Xiaolan struck again while the iron was hot: "I feel that if the governor stays in Jiangxi now, if the situation in North China improves, half of the southern half of the Yangtze River can be left for the president; once the situation changes, the governor will not bother to follow the example of Tan Zuan (Tan Yankai),  Sun Tui'an (Sun Daoren), as the Taiping Governor, can also help the commander and Beiyang Paoze. Wouldn't it be far better than the whole Beiyang army to perish together?

    "I remember that in "Historical Records of the Zhao Family", Gongsun Chujiu and Cheng Ying had a conversation about protecting the orphans of the Zhao family. Gongsun Chujiu asked Cheng Ying: "Is it difficult to raise an orphan to adulthood, to hoe a traitor to succeed him, or to die generously?  ?' Cheng Ying replied: 'Of course it is easier to die generously, but it is more difficult to raise an orphan to adulthood and hoe a traitor to succeed him!' Gongsun Chujiu said: 'The ancestors of the Zhao family treated me very kindly, so I ask you to help me raise the orphan.  , I'd better do the easy thing!" After saying this, Gongsun Chujiu died calmly. Later, after the Zhao family's orphans succeeded to the throne as adults, Cheng Ying said: "When the Zhao family suffered a genocide, all of their peers died. I am not  I can't die, but I have to bear the humiliation and live a secret life to raise the Zhao family!'

    "Nowadays, the public opinion in the whole country is fierce. We, Beiyang, have become the target of thousands of people. It is also known to both of us that the various departments in the army are severely short of ammunition, food and pay. It is impossible to know what the future situation of the country will be. In this case, why not leave this useful person for the governor?  Those who do it reluctantly? This is true loyalty to the commander! And what if we withdraw to Jiangbei? The governor is just a nominal governor who is insignificant and dispensable! "

    "Those who do it reluctantly? Indeed, it is even more difficult to stay in Jiangxi!" Li Chun shook his head and sighed, "Regardless of whether the commander-in-chief and all the Beiyang lords can understand Li's painstaking efforts, I am afraid that the brothers of the Sixth Division will all  Li turned against him!"

    How could Ding Xiaolan not understand the meaning revealed in Li Chun's words, and immediately followed the lead: "Brothers in the army are vulgar, how can they understand the governor's good intentions? They also don't think about it, the handsome man has many wives and concubines, and his children and grandchildren are everywhere.  , they have always spent money lavishly. If something unexpected happens, how will these people make a living? In the end, they have to rely on close relatives like the governor for help? Of course, there are some stupid people who can't reason with him. For such people  It¡¯s best for people to send his gifts out of the country!¡±

    Li Chun¡¯s spirit suddenly perked up and he blurted out, ¡°Brother Xiangtao, what are your suggestions?¡±

    Ding Xiaolan said: "Aren't division commander Ma Zigao (Ma Jizeng), brigade commander Wu Tichen (Wu Hongchang) and others anxious to cross the river? The governor might as well order them to lead a regiment of troops to cross the river and station in Hubei in the name of the vanguard and path explorer heading north.  Huangzhou or Anqing, Anhui; the governor led his trusted troops far behind them. As soon as they led their troops out of the province, they would immediately send people to block the fords of the Yangtze River and cut off their retreat. In this way, they could only  Discussions along the river!"

    "What if they disobey the order?" Li Chun immediately thought of another question.

    Ding Xiaolan sneered several times: "We hope they will disobey orders! As long as they stay within the borders of Jiangxi Province, the governor will still be their immediate superior. If they dare to disobey orders, we can justifiably dismiss them from their posts and question them. We will even salute them."  The strength of a regiment sent out has been saved, and I think the commander-in-chief and the Ministry of War have nothing to say.¡±

    Li Chun nodded with satisfaction: "This is a very good plan. It doesn't require a big fight, and it doesn't hurt the loyalty of our colleagues. Brother Xiangtao is really talented!"

    A few days later, under the supervision of Li Chun, Ma Jizeng and Wu Hongchang hurried northward with a regiment of troops.  Although they were quite confused, they never expected that Li Chun, a close confidant of the Marshal, would have second thoughts at this time.  After they arrived in Huangzhou, Hubei Province, Li Chun, who was following far behind, suddenly ordered the blockade of all Yangtze River ferries in Jiangxi Province. He was suddenly demoted from division commander to regiment commander, and had to co-lead Ma Jizeng with the original regiment commander and brigade commander.  After waking up from a dream, he quickly called the Presidential Palace and the Ministry of War to ask what to do.

    ?He woke up completely and looked at Li Yuanhong, Xu Shichang, Yuan Keding and others beside him. He seemed to know that his time was running out, so he said feebly: "Song Qing, Ju Ren, are you all here? It's a good time for you to come. I guess you are here."  It¡¯s useless!¡±

    Although Li Yuanhong and Yuan Shikai had a lot of grievances, he couldn't help but feel sad when he saw this scene. His eyes were red and his nose was sore. He reluctantly stepped forward and comforted: "President, don't be impatient. You are just suffering from heat and poison. You will be fine after a few days of rest!"  "

    Yuan Shikai shook his head: "Song Qing, there is no need to comfort me. I know my own affairs! I have been in the army for thirty years. From a soldier to the president, I have always claimed to know soldiers and people. Unexpectedly, I was defeated in the war and everyone betrayed me."  , it¡¯s really destiny. But now that the country is so corrupt, but a Western scholar like Sun Baixi is allowed to take sole control of the country, I will never die in peace!"

    Yuan Keding wiped away his tears and came forward: "Father, please rest in peace. Keding will definitely kill that thief Sun Yuanqi and avenge my shame on Beiyang!"

    Yuan Shikai glanced at Yuan Keding: "I am not Sun Baixi's opponent, let alone a dude like you? Don't talk nonsense and make a joke!" After a pause, he weakly said to Li Yuanhong: "Now that the Kuomintang has been dissolved, the Kuomintang  Declined, only the New China Party dominates. Whether the Congress can be convened in the future depends entirely on Sun Baixi's thoughts. According to the "Convention", Song Qing will succeed the president after my death. I hope you can restrain and advise Sun Baixi, and don't let him  You wantonly destroy the country!"

    Li Yuanhong smiled bitterly: You and I were tortured to death by Sun Yuanqi, how can I fight with him alone?  Being able to save one's life is already a blessing!  But even though he thought so, he still said: "With the president here, the country cannot be in chaos!"

    Duan Qirui took advantage of Yuan Shikai to wake up and quickly interjected and asked: "Commander, how should the Beiyang armies respond to the current situation?"

    Yuan Shikai said: "Now that the defeat has been decided, let's not engage in meaningless fights. Let all ministries put down their weapons and save some vitality for the country!"

    "Father, we may not have the strength to give it a try, so why should we take the initiative to admit defeat!" Yuan Keding was still unwilling to accept it.

    Yuan Shikai seemed as if he had never heard of it.

    At about 10 o'clock in the morning on February 27, 1914, Yuan Shikai, a great hero, died of illness in Jurentang, the Presidential Palace, at the age of 55.
