Master Yuan, start!

In the final analysis, Yuan Shikai could overturn the table. He had the thoughts of later generations and was not confined to the nest of feudalism.

The reason why we are not overturning the table and are still playing chess with the Qing court is, firstly, to preserve the vitality of the Chinese nation, and secondly, to accumulate strength for ourselves.

When the game becomes a dead end and he can no longer play, he will naturally choose to learn from Liu Qi and pick up the chessboard and shoot directly at his opponent's head.

...

Putting aside the conspiracy in the capital, after receiving the news of the crackdown on the Jindan Dao rebels, Yuan Shikai did not rush to suppress the bandits. Instead, he inspected his modernization cause.

Under his special care, the first short-term course of the Northeast Civil Affairs School has successfully completed today and a graduation ceremony will be held.

This school is the product of the implementation of the imperial examination integration system previously promoted by Yuan Shikai in Korea.

Scholars who participated in the traditional "Zhonghua Examination" imperial examination in Korea would go to the capital to take part in the metropolitan examination the following year after passing the provincial examination in Seoul.

At the Qing court, Yuan Shikai didn't care how Guangxu messed with the imperial examinations. He was only responsible for sending these scholars to the capital smoothly.

Of course, it has only been sent once so far, because the imperial examination is held every three years, and Guangxu only held one special examination after returning to the capital, and the next imperial examination would have to wait until 1893.

As for the other "Western Examination", it is held once a year to select various grassroots cadres who can adapt to new enterprises, organizations, and factories outside the Great Wall.

However, after the first event, Yuan Xiangcheng chose to suspend it.

Because he found that even though the questions were very simple, the knowledge of astronomy, geography, economics, ethnicity, etc. was still too complicated and obscure for the scholars in the late 19th century, so not many people passed the test.

Some people don’t even know why Britain and France invaded China, and some people think that England and England are not the same country.

Some scholars could not even distinguish between constitutionalism and republicanism, nor could they tell that the Austro-Hungarian majority and the Germans belonged to the same nation.

How could this be possible? Yuan Xiangcheng was still hoping to select talents from these people as a reserve of cadres for future governance.

In view of this situation, Yuan Shikai established a Northeast Civil Affairs School for scholars all over the world, and he himself served as the nominal principal.

2The Civil Affairs School was similar to the Mechanical School, Telegraph School, Mining School and other schools he had established before.

9. No matter whether you were a student, a scholar, a juren or even a jinshi, as long as you could recognize Chinese characters and speak Mandarin, you could enter the Civil Affairs School.

4 Yuan Xiangcheng also specially provided food and accommodation subsidies to the students of the Civil Affairs School. Like previous schools, students would be tested when they entered the school. Those who passed would take advanced courses, and those who failed would take elementary courses.

The elementary course lasts one year, and the advanced course lasts half a year, and will provide a detailed interpretation of the political and economic conditions of countries such as Britain, France, Russia, Germany, the United States, and France.

Once they successfully obtain their graduation certificates, Yuan Xiangcheng will send them to various places to assist with affairs, including but not limited to commerce, agriculture, postal services and other fields.

3. At the same time, during the study period, in addition to strengthening their knowledge in economics, philosophy, politics, etc., different types of students will also be asked to read the two books "Das Kapital Manifesto".

No matter whether they understand it or not, let them have a vague impression first.

Yuan Xiangcheng knew that the realization of a theory could not ignore the material basis.

He himself never thought of launching a red revolution in China in the late 19th century.

After all, Mr. Marx said that the proletarian revolution is most likely to break out during the period of highly developed capitalism.

4 China today is by no means in a period of highly developed capitalism, and we should be thankful to have something a little bit like capitalism.

The revolutions in early China during Zheryuan's time and space were mostly mixed with elements of national counterattacks and state confrontations, and there was no pure proletarian revolution.

Instead of doing this, Yuan Xiangcheng felt that it would be better to face reality and, in a country where agriculture still accounts for the vast majority of the population, first honestly carry out the national revolution and then slowly plan for social revolution.

Fortunately, nationalism has its own unique "virality" in terms of dissemination. Even though Yuan Shikai did not promote the idea of ​​anti-Manchu and pro-Han in public, almost everyone in the Civil Affairs School had several pamphlets exposing the crimes of the Qing Dynasty's invasion of the Pass.

: Nationalist thought has taken root outside the Great Wall.

Therefore, when Yuan Xiangcheng received the information from the Red Search Department today, he just smiled and did not take it seriously.

"Let's go. This isn't the main course today." Yuan Xiangcheng placed the intelligence Ming Ye had sent on the table. "They're just some young scholars passing around those pamphlets. Let them read them. There's no need to hide anymore and worry about the Qing court."

"Yes!" Ming Ye put the information away and then pushed the door open and walked out: "Chief Instructor, I will go to the auditorium to guard it first."

Deduction

"it is good!"

Yuan Xiangcheng stood up, put on his military cap, fastened his accessories, and dressed in the latest army formal dress, and walked towards the auditorium of the Northeast Civil Affairs School.

He wore a light blue woolen coat with a double-breasted front and seven buttons, and black trousers with red stitching on the outside.

This set of clothes was made by Yuan Shikai himself by a tailor based on his memory of the warlord uniforms of the Republic of China. It was dictated by Yuan Shikai and there was only one such set in the entire army.

It can be regarded as an early fulfillment of the "President Yuan" addiction! Walking on the road, Yuan Xiangcheng whistled a little frivolously.

When he reached the door of the auditorium, he restrained his smile and pushed the door open with a serious expression.

Facing the gazes of hundreds of students, Yuan Xiangcheng walked onto the podium covered with red cloth.

As soon as he came on stage, he decided to raise the tone and let the Chinese people in the 19th century see what it means to be a movie emperor and what it means to win people's hearts!

"We are young students, full of vigor and vitality; we are full of scholarly ambition and are ready to take on the world." Yuan Shikai shamelessly plagiarized other people's poems: "Today, seeing so many young talents, I know that China will not worry about lacking successors."

What a great line! My classmates are so young and vigorous! I never thought that Mr. Yuan was so good at poetry.

The students sitting below are all L Suo Qun! : Bait wine hiss 0 Si ￥ 3 Pu Hearing this sentence, it seemed as if he remembered the time when he was chasing and playing in the private school as a child.

"China is facing a major change not seen in 3000 years. To the north lies Tsarist Russia, to the south lies Britain and France, and internally we face the danger of division. You are the essence of China. You should learn from this shame and be brave enough to help our country overcome its worries."

Yuan Shikai personally attended the ceremony and delivered an impassioned speech to the scholars, recognizing their academic achievements and encouraging them to take responsibility for saving the country.

The speech ended, and just when everyone thought that this "ceremony" was over and was no different from the previous speech in Gyeongbokgung Square.

The students present suddenly heard their instructor shout, "The award ceremony begins now!"

Award ceremony?

What was that thing? After hearing this, many people were confused.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw several tall and strong security guards holding wooden trays piled with papers and walking to the podium.

At this time, the teacher picked up a piece of paper on the tray and read aloud: "Wei Tianming, come forward!"

"Eh?" Wei Tianming, who was in the crowd, was a little surprised and pointed at himself: "Me?"

"Don't be stunned, go to the stage quickly!" the teacher whispered to him.

Although he didn't know what to do, Wei Tianming still walked forward obediently, took the paper from the instructor, and walked in front of Yuan Xiangcheng.

"Student Wei, do a good job!"

Yuan Xiangcheng patted the student in front of him on the shoulder, and glanced at the destination on his graduation certificate.

Wei Tianming, a graduate of the first class of the Northeast Civil Affairs School, majored in economics and was sent to the Jiaodong Governor's Office to assist in business affairs.

"Jiaodong, that's a concession, and the British aren't easy to get along with." Yuan Xiangcheng handed the certificate to Wei Tianming, shook his hands tightly, and said kindly, "When you get there, don't let down the prestige of being the top student at the Civil Affairs School!"

"Yes!"

It was the first time that Wei Tianming was treated with such courtesy by a first-rank governor. He was so excited that he pretended to kneel down in front of Yuan Xiangcheng.

"Oh, no!" Yuan Xiangcheng supported Wei Tianming's shoulders and lifted him up with a smile: "The instructor in charge should have told you when you entered school.

Old man exchanges 9$5874+245*

As long as you are in the school, you are not allowed to kowtow. Today we are only talking about the relationship between teachers and students, regardless of status."

"Yes, Instructor Yuan!"

Wei Tianming imitated the salute posture of the National Defense Army he saw on the street and gave Yuan Xiangcheng a non-standard military salute.

"If you want to join the National Defense Force, your top score in the Civil Affairs School is useless." Yuan Xiangcheng smiled as he held Wei Tianming's graduation certificate. "Whether civil or military, we are all serving the country. I treat everyone equally."

"Instructor Yuan is right. It's me...it's me, Meng Lang."

"It's okay, I don't take it to heart." Yuan Xiangcheng smiled and pointed behind Wei Tianming: "But, you and I have talked long enough, they are still waiting!"

Wei Tianming then realized that there was a line of students lined up behind him, so he said with shame, "Students, get off right away!"

Although he ran off the stage in a hurry, Wei Tianming was very excited, his heart pounding. He walked towards his seat reluctantly, looking back every step, as if he wanted to imprint Yuan Xiangcheng's face in his mind.

Students at the end of the 19th century had never witnessed such a scene.

What is a sense of ritual? This is a sense of ritual!

Yuan Xiangcheng just gave them a sense of ceremony!

First, a graduation ceremony was held, and then certificates and awards were presented. Yuan Xiangcheng also patted shoulders, clenched his fists and spoke words of encouragement. As a governor, he addressed these scholars as classmates without regard for their status.

If the communication conditions were not there, Yuan Xiangcheng would even want to create a yearbook and ask everyone to write down their zip codes to facilitate future communication.

However, as postal affairs have not yet been launched, there is no point in discussing this matter.

But even so, it's enough!

After this series of blows, everyone would be excited by Yuan Shikai's attack. Even Emperor Meiji would be confused.

As Yuan Xiangcheng's formal award ceremony continued, not only Wei Tianming, but most of the scholars who were received by Yuan Xiangcheng felt a little unreal.

Many people even felt that their steps were unsteady and they didn't know how they walked down from the stage.

What a grand honor this is!

A dignified duke and governor of the three northeastern provinces could be so courteous and humble to a scholar who had barely grown any hair on his face, without a trace of impatience.

After receiving the certificates, the scholars walked down the stage, each holding a certificate in their hands. Looking at Yuan Shikai still encouraging the students one by one and having cordial conversations with them, they felt that the choice of coming to Korea to study Western knowledge was worth it!

...

As time goes by, there are fewer and fewer diplomas on the tray.

It was not until the last one was awarded by Yuan Xiangcheng that the students reluctantly prepared to leave the auditorium.

However, before they stepped out of the hall, they saw fully armed Wehrmacht soldiers entering one after another.

"Da da"

"Da da da"

The soldiers jogged all the way, but their steps were uniform. Seeing this scene, many people were confused.

What is this for?

A few scholars who had secretly communicated with the southern governor broke out in cold sweat when they saw this scene.

What's going on? Why did the National Defense Army enter the school for no reason? Was I exposed?

But soon, everyone understood what had happened.

I saw that the large banner with the words "The First Graduation Ceremony of the Northeast Civil Affairs School" that had been hanging in the center of the auditorium was taken down.

Several Wehrmacht soldiers in blue uniforms quickly stepped forward and unfurled a banner that read "Wehrmacht Navy and Army Award Ceremony."
