Volume W Three Eternal Achievements Chapter 442 Vice President Meng Enyuan

On December 20, 1918, Qian Nengxun, the Prime Minister of the Beiyang Government of the Anhui clique, proposed that the Senate and House of Representatives (An Fu clique) voted to appoint former Governor Meng Enyuan as Vice President of the Republic of China. The position of vice president who had been vacant for three years was finally elected.

At the same time, Meng Enyuan was still listening to the little song in the Governor's Mansion in Changchun. When Gaofeng City rushed over with a telegram, Meng Enyuan blamed him: "He looks useless and not steady at all. What exactly makes you so panic?"

Gao Fengcheng took out a telegram tremblingly and said, "The Beiyang government appoints you... as Vice President!"

"Oh, Vice President." Meng Enyuan held the tea, but did not react at first, then jumped up tremblingly, and the teacup in his hand was broken and shouted, "Vice President?"

"Yes." Gao Fengcheng said in disbelief.

"This...this...this...this is possible." Meng Enyuan stuttered. Why did he say that happiness came too suddenly, too suddenly. He, a fisherman from Tianjin who was called Meng Da Teapot, could actually become the vice president? "Hurry, hurry, call Wuru, hurry, call Wuru to come to me." Meng Enyuan said hurriedly.

In fact, Gao Shibin also learned the news. He was not sure at first, but the telegram written in black and white was absolutely wrong. However, he sat in the office and pondered for a while. His uncle Meng Enyuan was the vice president. There must be something strange about it. In terms of talent, qualifications, and relationships, Meng Enyuan was the most lighter among the Beiyang bosses. And Meng Enyuan did the wisest, perhaps the most confused thing, was to hand over the territory and army to Wang Maoru, and became

The Supreme Emperor. At that time, Meng Enyuan was confused by the presidential dream described by Wang Maoru. Not only Meng Enyuan, but also by him. When Wang Maoru conquered Northeast and Mongolia, Meng Enyuan and others regretted it. Especially after power was undermined, Meng Enyuan even hoped that Wang Maoru would die in trouble, and he was satisfied to be the real Northeast King. But at this time, he was suddenly appointed as the vice president. How could they not be stunned?

"Conspiracy must be conspiracy." Gao Shibin said to himself, "But what conspiracy?" He rang carefully. Suddenly he slapped the table and said, "So it's like this, it's like this." Then he took the initiative to run to Meng Enyuan's Grand Governor's Mansion.

Meng Enyuan drove away all the actors and put on a serious marshal's uniform. The concubines on the side laughed and changed his clothes for him. When he saw Gao Shibin walking in, Meng Enyuan smiled and said, "Ruru, can you know the news?"

Gao Shibin said: "You all go down, auntie, I have something important to discuss with my uncle."

Meng Enyuan's concubine was quite afraid of Gao Shibin. She hurriedly said, "Since you have something to discuss with each other, it is not convenient for me, a wife." So she left with her maids and servants, leaving Gao Shibin here. Meng Enyuan asked, "Why are you so cautious?"

Gao Shibin said: "Uncle, first of all, congratulations on being the vice president."

Meng Enyuan laughed and said, "Haha, sit down and talk." Seeing his cautious expression again, he stopped laughing and said, "What?"

Gao Shibin said: "After a series of plans, these two aspects are calculated by each other."

"What's going on?" Meng Enyuan said.

Gao Shibin said: "Uncle, you may not be comfortable in this vice president."

"Ah?" Meng Enyuan was surprised.

"Why did Duan Qirui ask you to do this position of vice president?" Gao Shibin analyzed, "He must be threatened by some kind of force, and the only one who can threaten him is Wang Maoru at this moment. Wang Maoru decided to exchange and ask his uncle to leave the Northeast on the condition of interfering in the military to send troops. In this way, Wang Maoru succeeded as the governor of the Northeast because of his identity as a hero in Europe and China. Wang Maoru became the true king of Northeast China. In addition to giving his uncle a vice president, he also fulfilled his uncle's wishes and gained a good reputation. After all, you are his senior. He asked you to be a vice president to respect the rules of his seniors in accordance with the rules of the officialdom."

Meng Enyuan nodded while stroking his beard and said, "I thought of this too, Xiusheng did a good job."

Gao Shibin said: "When Wang Xiusheng sent you away, he became the real King of Northeast China. He had heavy troops under his command and promoted the development of Northeast China. In a few years, he could enter the Central Plains and dominate the world. After he became the Great Governor of Northeast China, the Northeast people only knew Wang Maoru but not the others (Meng Enyuan)."

Meng Enyuan was sad. In fact, even now, the Northeast officialdom only knows that there is a commander-in-chief but a general.

Gao Shibin said again: "Duan Duan will definitely not let Wang Xiusheng easily get the Northeast to be the King of Northeast China, so Wang Xiusheng must have participated in the interfering army against Russia, and Duan Duan will also have a hand. I guess Duan Duan means that Wang Xiusheng led his army to Russia, and Wang Xiusheng won many battles, fought against Tsarist Russia and seized the Middle East Road, fought against Mongolia and opened the territory to split the territory, and won the warrior medal in Austria. The more he won the battle, the more arrogant he became, Duan Duan was good at following the situation.

Let him lead his army into Russia. Once he enters Russia, he will be unable to resist the war. Perhaps his interfering army and even Wang Xiusheng himself may die in Russia. Even if he is not killed in battle, as long as he is defeated, coupled with domestic pressure, Duan Gong can relieve Wang Maoru of his position as the governor of the Northeast when he was in Russia. The most likely successor is Duan Gong's high-level football player Xu Shuzheng, so Xu Shuzheng will definitely wait for Wang Xiusheng to make a mistake like a poisonous snake."

Meng Enyuan clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Duan is also very calculating, very calculating."

"No of these people is a slight and delicate heart." Gao Shibin sighed, "When my uncle is in Beijing, he has no soldiers and no power, so why don't he let Duan Qirui control it? Although Duan Duan no longer serves as prime minister, Prime Minister Qian Nengxun only follows Duan Danny, President Xu is also a kind person. This Duan Gong is the power of the president. President Xu Juren (Xu Shichang's name is Juren) has no rights, so if you are the vice president, you have no rights."

"What if I don't go?" Meng Enyuan said.

Gao Shibin smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, if you don't go, wouldn't you betray yourself? I think Wang Maoru will be appointed as the governor of the Northeast in three days. If you don't go, wouldn't you still have to fight for the position of governor? Isn't this breaking the rules of the officialdom?"

Meng Enyuan sighed: "I am a fish and meat for others, and I have to do it."

As Gao Shibin expected, in less than three days, one day later, the Beiyang Government and the State Council appointed Wang Maoru as the governor of the Northeast and the Prime Minister of the military, government, civil and civilian military, government and civilian military of five provinces, Liaoning Province, Jilin Province, Heilongjiang Province, Mongolia Province and Rehe Province, and Rehe Yi's army was under the command of the Northeast Frontier Defense Force and was adapted by the General Staff of the Northeast Frontier Defense Force.

Wang Maoru did not treat Yi's army badly, and immediately appointed the commander of Yi's army Jiang Gui as the governor of Rehe. Yi's army was reorganized into three armies, one division and two armed police brigades, one of which was the 10th Division, to fill the 10th Division of Bereville's Bereville's mercenary. After the reorganization, the 10th Division was immediately transferred to Mongolia to assist in the prevention of Mongolia's security. The two armed police brigades were the First Armed Police Brigade of Rehe and the Second Armed Police Brigade of Rehe, and stationed in Chengde and Chifeng County. Since both of them were armed police brigades and did not undertake combat tasks, it showed that Wang Maoru's determination was unstoppable to the Central Plains and not compete with the Anhui clique for the world.

After the Yi Army was reorganized into the Northeast Frontier Defense Force, the 10th Division was commanded by Mi Zhenbiao, with the 28th Brigade, the 29th Brigade and the 44th Brigade. The brigade commanders were respectively Shu Hejun, Yin Gui, and Zhang Pengfei, and the commander of the supplementary regiment Liu Shansheng, the battalion commander of the baggage battalion was served by Liu Hanjie, the battalion commander of the machine gun battalion was served by Chang Wanli, the battalion commander of the guard battalion was served by Mi Zhenbiao's son Mi Guoxian, the commander of the Rehe First Armed Police Brigade was served by Zhang Dianru, and the commander of the Rehe Second Armed Police Brigade was served by Zhang Liantong. It can be said that Wang Maoru did not join in his direct troops, and all the main generals were from Yi Army. He only sent officers and staff to assist in the reorganization, so the reorganization of the Yi Army did not cause anyone to rebound.

However, after the change, the 10th Division, which was known as the 10th Army of 10th,300 people and two armed police brigades of 6,000 people will be left behind. The total number will be reduced to 35,000. The soldiers and veterans will be eliminated and the land will be divided into land and fields, or stayed in Rehe or immigrated to the northern desert of Jilin Province to reclaim farming. The General Military Affairs Office promised these eliminated veterans that they would divide their wives in a few years. All they asked them to do was to build their own houses and cultivate land and raise them and their wives.

Wang Maoru got great benefits, had more troops in his hands and stronger strength, and was ready to participate in the war. After the Harbin meeting, Wang Maoru first found US ambassador Rui Enshi to sign a loan agreement and cooperation agreement with him, borrowed the transportation resources of Northeast Grassland Coal Mine from the United States as collateral, and borrowed a total of US$100 million from the United States Morgan Bank, Citibank, Bank of America, and National Bank of America in five years, all of which were used to invest in the construction of Northeast China. Through this loan, the United States basically determined Wang Maoru's identity as the spokesperson for the United States in China. Wang Maoru also used this huge loan to tie the Northeast local government to the United States.

Faced with Japan's aggressiveness, Wang Maoru could only make himself a "lack dog" of another great power. At least at this stage, Americans value not China's territory, but money and interests.

Of course, all investments required by the United States must be used to develop in non-military fields such as factory construction, local infrastructure construction, industrial development, people's livelihood development, and agricultural development.

The total value of this loan is divided into four phases, one phase every year, and it will be repaid in 30 years. The loan is 30 million US dollars in the first phase, which will be lent to the Northeast Governor's Office from New Year's Day in 1919. It will be borrowed to the Northeast Governor's Office in 1920. It will be 20 million US dollars in 1922. It will be 20 million US dollars in 1923. It will be neither borrowed nor repaid in 1923. The loan will be repaid in 1924. It will be repaid in 1924. It will be repaid in 30 years. It will be repaid in 1924. It will be repaid in 30 years. It will be repaid in 10 million US dollars per year until it is paid off. In addition, Wang Maoru and the Americans also signed two railway construction contracts, one railway is the Tongliao Prefecture Railway from Shenyang Prefecture to Korqin Prefecture, and the other is the railway from Harbin to Jilin Prefecture. These two railways are also considered one of the mortgages. Welcome to your support, which is my greatest motivation. m
