Years of the Republic of China 1913

() A few days later, Song Jiaoren forcibly passed the issue of sending troops in the name of the prime minister, and made a report to the presidential palace and to both houses of Congress.The reaction of the Presidential Palace was as usual. Li Bodhisattva was the president. Anyway, whatever the Prime Minister’s Office said, it was not so smooth in the Congress. Because of the great changes in Tsarist Russia, many members of the Congress opposed the formal dispatch of troops. After three consecutive days After fierce debates and secret efforts, the Congress barely passed the proposal, thus giving the resolution a formal legal effect.

Britain and France, who were waiting anxiously, were overjoyed when they learned that the Chinese government had agreed to formally send troops. However, when the Chinese government made a request for sending troops, they could not decide.

"Come in!"

Fang Zida's office, as Fang Zida's voice came from inside, the two men standing at the door hurriedly straightened their clothes, opened the door and walked in.

"You are here, wait a moment." Looking up at the other party, Fang Zida did not stop the work in hand, but continued to be busy.

The visitor didn't go to the side sofa and sit down, but stood there quietly, waiting for nearly half an hour until Fang Zida finished reviewing the last document.

"Why are you standing, sitting, why are you sitting?"

"Thank you, Chief..." The two thanked quickly, and sat down accordingly. When Fang Zida notified the staff to come in to serve tea, they hurriedly got up and took the teacups with both hands.

Seeing their cautious and extremely cautious looks, Fang Zida secretly smiled, and after the staff left, he said, "Do you know why I'm looking for you today?"

"I don't know about the humble rank. Please show me the chief." The two replied in unison, with a trace of anxiety in their expressions.

One of these two people is He Yingqin.Another is Wang Zhaoming.When Yuan Keding conspired back then, both of them played disgraceful roles in it, especially Wang Zhaoming was forced in by Yuan Keding, if Fang Zida didn't give him a hand at the end, Wang Zhaoming might also fall into the trap. After entering, there will be no future.

As for He Yingqin, although Fang Zida's order was finally carried out in this matter, because of the mentality of trying to please both sides secretly at the beginning, he had both sides.This made Fang Zida very unhappy. After the Yuan Keding incident, Fang Zida sent the two of them to an idle department and hung them up until now.

Before that, the two of them didn't say that they held great power, at least they had some real power, especially He Yingqin.Fang Zida also specially gave him the rank of major general, and handed over the guards to him to lead, while Wang Zhaoming is a colonel, and also holds a civil job in the central bank, so he is considered a figure in Beijing.But after being hung up, they became grandmas who didn't hurt.The character that the uncle doesn't like has almost no rights other than a so-so salary every day.This was unbearable for the two of them who had high self-esteem, especially He Yingqin, who watched Jiang Zhiqing under Fang Zida's hands like a fish in water and promoted step by step.I regret it even more, if I let him make another choice.He will definitely cling to Fang Zida's thigh tightly, and will never touch those smart little brains again.

Just as these two suffering brothers and sisters were living like years, complaining about what they had done, they suddenly received the news that Fang Zida asked them to come, and they couldn't help being shocked and excited. Did Fang Zida finally think of them?Perhaps this will be a great opportunity to make a comeback again.The two of them knew very well that if they wanted to get rid of the current situation, they could only rely on Fang Zida, and there was no other way.

Abandoning their normal work, He Yingqin and Wang Zhaoming hurried over, unable to hold back their inner excitement halfway, they discussed with each other why Fang Zida asked them to come here, until now, they are secretly guessing the reason in their hearts .

After asking a few words about their jobs, Fang Zida babbled a lot of nonsense and answered cautiously. He Yingqin exchanged glances with Wang Zhaoming quietly, and the two made up their minds at the same time.

"Chief, I was entrusted by the chief executive that day. I was fooled by lard and did something wrong. The chief executive ignored the fault of the villain and did not pursue the responsibility of the humble official afterwards. I am grateful to the humble official. Please rest assured, the chief executive, but Command, I must do my best in this humble position, and I will do my best!"

He Yingqin stood up first to express his opinion, and Wang Zhaoming was not to be outdone, he scolded himself in front of everyone in embarrassment, and kept saying that he was already Fang Zida's person, so he must be loyal, no matter what Fang Zida asked him to say, do, or wrinkle. It is not a good man to lower his eyebrows.

"Right is really the best thing to change a person!"

Looking at the two people showing their loyalty with a smile, Fang Zida secretly sighed.He Yingqin was born in the army and was a vanguard of the revolution, while Wang Zhaoming is even more famous. His poems that led the way to success in those days are still being recited by others, but even two people like them cannot escape the temptation of power.

"Sit, I understand what you mean. In fact, Fang also knew that the matter was quite complicated at the beginning. It is no wonder you two. Afterwards, you were transferred to work. This is also to protect you, so as not to be in the limelight again and get lost. It seems that the two of you have realized something after resting and studying these days, so I feel more at ease..."

"The chief is so painstaking, I really feel ashamed of the lowly position!" Wang Zhaoming took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of his eyes with red eyes, and said in a slightly hoarse voice.

Seeing Wang Zhaoming stealing the limelight, He Yingqin hastily sighed again and again, the two of them almost regarded Fang Zida as their own reborn parents.

"Okay, okay, people, there is no one who doesn't make mistakes, and you are a good comrade if you know your mistakes and can correct them."

The two quickly said yes, and sat back respectfully.

Seeing that they were almost done beating, Fang Zida took a puff of cigarette and began to talk about the topic.

"Zheng Fu has already decided, and after the proposal passed by the President and Congress, three reorganized divisions and nearly [-] troops will be sent to the European battlefield to fulfill the obligations of the Allied countries. You should know about this?"

"Back to the long story of the president, I heard." The two nodded quickly, and at the same time they were both surprised and happy. Fang Zida mentioned this, could it be that he wanted them to...

Fang Zida continued: "These three reorganized divisions will form the National Defense Army's Expeditionary Army. This is the third teacher..." Speaking of this, Fang Zida glanced at He Yingqin, and He Yingqin's heart was beating violently.

"Respect, do you think you are qualified to be the commander of the third division?"

As soon as Fang Zida finished speaking, He Yingqin stood up immediately, and replied with his heels together: "The chief has an order, and Yingqin must do his best and die!"

"Hehe, the attitude is good, but there is no need to mention the undead ones. Since you have the determination, you will be the commander of the third division."

He Yingqin was so excited that his ears turned red, and he quickly answered yes, and after sitting down, his whole body was beaming with joy.

The commander of the third division of the Expeditionary Army is not an ordinary position. Although He Yingqin used to be in charge of the guard army, the guard army did not belong to the regular National Defense Force after all, and his major general is not as loud as the major general of the National Defense Force.But now, once he serves as the commander of the third division, it means that he has directly entered the active army from the reserve, and has suddenly become the main general of the National Defense Forces.

Compared with the excited He Yingqin, Wang Zhaoming was a little bit lost.One army and three divisions of the Expeditionary Army had already been arranged, but Fang Zida hadn't mentioned himself. Could it be that the loyalty he showed earlier was useless?Or Fang Zida is still wary of himself?

"Ji Xin!"

"Ah... yes!"

While Wang Zhaoming was thinking wildly, Fang Zida suddenly called his name, and he hurriedly came to his senses and looked at Fang Zida expectantly.

"Ji Xin's ability lies in his civil service, not in military affairs. Although Ji Xin worked in the guard army for some time, he was not a professional soldier after all, so the post of chief officer of the expeditionary force may not be suitable for Ji Xin."

Wang Zhaoming looked gloomy. Although he was a little unconvinced in his heart, he could only nod in front of Fang Zida, and lamented that he was out of luck and missed such a great opportunity.In this case, I am afraid that God will not know when I will be able to stand out again.

But then, Fang Zida's other words brought back Wang Zhaoming, who was already in despair, and he couldn't believe his ears.

"The expeditionary force was sent by our country, and the battlefield is thousands of miles away in Europe. The situation is complicated and the war is changeable. What's more, Britain, France and other countries, as great powers, have always looked down on China. I am afraid that they will suffer a little bit when they go to other people's territory. Therefore, Fang suggested to the General Staff to set up an organization in the expeditionary force to coordinate with the governments of Britain and France to ensure the stability and command operations of the expeditionary force. This organization is temporarily called the Political Department, with the chief officer as the director. The rank is designated as a major general, who is mainly responsible for dealing with the Allied powers and collecting intelligence to feed back to the country. For this director candidate, it may not be suitable to be promoted from the army, so after much deliberation, I think Ji Xin is more capable in civilian work and has a political mind , may be able to take on this role..."

Wang Zhaoming was like a roller coaster. He went up to the sky in a short while at the bottom of the valley. He was shocked by the sudden good news, and he kept his mouth open for a long time without recovering.

"Ji Xin, Ji Xin!"

"Yes! Yes!" Wang Zhaoming stood up in a hurry, almost touching the water glass, blushing and said hastily: "Please rest assured, Chief, Zhaoming is deeply engraved with the kindness of Chief, and will definitely do a good job in this job, as long as Commander-in-Chief's order, the lowly position will die without regret!"

"Hehe, you guys, didn't you say it before, don't keep talking about whether you are dead or not, I take good care of you, work hard! When you come back victorious, you will have a bright future ahead." Fang Zida smiled and pointed to the two of them. Jokingly, the two hurriedly claimed yes, not to mention the excitement in their hearts.
