Republic of China: I am a great warlord, many children, many blessings

I am still somewhat looking forward to it.

Perhaps, in order to add an extra layer of insurance, Yuan Shikai asked his concubines to send telegrams to his daughters, asking them to persuade Shen Hao.

Shen Hao looked at Yuan Fuzhen, Yuan Jizhen, and Yuan Zhongzhen, who all looked pleading.

He knew that they didn't want to fall out with Yuan Shikai.

Shen Hao said calmly: "If your father is willing to abdicate, I will support him to continue to be president. If he still insists on being emperor, then I will not care."

In Shen Hao's mind, Yuan Shikai's abdication was inevitable, but it would be soon, so it didn't matter if he remained president for a few more months.

It just so happens that I can use these few months to take over some more territories.

Hearing this, several women nodded silently. They also knew that this was Shen Hao's bottom line.

They also accepted it and hurriedly sent the news to Yuan Shikai.

In their hearts, Shen Hao's status is of course higher than Yuan Shikai.

After getting Shen Hao's assurance, Yuan Shikai felt extremely disappointed, but also relieved.

The presidency is still there.

Even if I can't be emperor, I can still be president.

It's like working in vain.

Therefore, facing tremendous pressure from both home and abroad, as well as being deserted by his friends and relatives, on March 3, Yuan Shikai formally announced the abolition of the "Hongxian" imperial system and the restoration of the republican system.

Therefore, Yuan Shikai, who had been emperor for only 83 days, officially stepped down, and Yuan Shikai's dream of becoming an emperor was completely extinguished.

Under the temperament, he vomited blood and fainted, and his physical condition became worse and worse.

The republic was restored, and warlords such as Feng Guozhang also expressed their congratulations.

However, what Yuan Shikai did not expect was that the National Protection Army did not stop sanctioning him just because he announced his withdrawal from the monarchy.

He still expressed his intention to attack the capital and sanction Yuan Shikai!

Yuan Shikai must be publicly tried!

To this end, Chen Xi publicly sent troops to attack Lu Jianzhang in Shaanxi in the name of Cai E's National Protection Army.

This move was also supported by Cai E.

Although Chen Xi declared independence, the military power remained in his hands.

Cai E was unable to intervene at all.

Not only that, Chen Xi also didn't care about Cai E's military reinforcements.

It was Feng Yuxiang himself who provided a lot of supplies to support Cai E.

But Chen Xi's sudden decision to attack Shaanxi still made Cai E very excited.

Show support immediately.

Chen Xi's move made Shaanxi Governor Lu Jianzhang furious.

Damn it, I provoke you.

But regardless of whether Lu Jianzhang was willing or not, Chen Xi had already sent his troops.

It was none other than Kong Jie.

Li Yunlong and others who learned the news were immediately unhappy.

It was agreed that Kong Jie would deal with Cao Kun, but after killing Cao Kun, Kong Jie not only did not come back, but continued to attack Lu Jianzhang.

This is really making them jealous.

After a month of hard work, Ding Wei completely took control of the entire Yunnan.

113 After Tang Jirao surrendered, Shen Hao did not confiscate his house. Instead, he allowed Tang Jirao to bring all his assets to Guangdong.

Because of the Yunnan Army's propaganda, the whole Yunnan knew that the troops coming from Guangdong were rich. If they followed Shen Hao, they would have leather shoes to wear, meat and white rice to eat, and a monthly salary of five dollars.

This kind of wonderful life made the troops in southern Yunnan surrender one after another.

When Ding Wei set out, he only had 10,000 people under his command. Now, in just one month, Ding Wei has 100,000 people under his command.

Due to the lack of weapons, Ding Wei could only ask Shen Hao for help.

Shen Hao was surprised by the huge army of Ding Wei. He did not expect that this guy was so good at recruiting soldiers.

The weapons produced by military factories cannot keep up with the speed of conscription.

So, Shen Hao chose to continue taking concubines.

The target this time was Yueya, but suddenly a piece of news surprised Shen Hao.

"Report to the President, we have rescued a girl in the suburbs of Guangzhou, she is the Shen Yu you have been looking for," Huang Qiying said;

Hearing this, Shen Hao was stunned for a moment. If Shen Yu hadn't been mentioned, Shen Hao would have almost forgotten about this woman.

It finally appeared.

The heroine of "Drunken Master 3" Shen Hao is a woman who looks exactly like Hong Kong star Li Jiaxin, and Shen Hao has been looking for her before.

But it's strange that I can't find it.

Now that Yuan Shikai has just abdicated, he has come out.

Shen Hao asked: "Where is the person?"

Huang Qiying said: "He is in my house now, do you want to see him, President?"

501. Are you Shen Hao’s man?

Then, Huang Qiying said again: "This girl is Shen Yu, the third daughter of the fourth prince of the Qing Dynasty. Because of the Xinhai Revolution, she was afraid of being killed by the revolutionaries, so she changed her surname to a Han Chinese surname."

Shen Hao said: "Well, since it's at your house, bring it here for me to take a look."

Huang Qiying said: "This Shen Yu is unruly and willful, President, you must be mentally prepared, don't blame me when the time comes."

Perhaps because of his background, Shen Yu usually looks down on others and doesn't take them seriously at all.

He is also very rude when speaking.

Huang Qiying felt a headache just watching this, but Shen Hao had sent people to look for Shen Yu before, so Huang Qiying had no choice but to bear with it.

Otherwise, he would have been driven away long ago.

Shen Hao smiled and said: "Don't worry, as long as you bring the person here, the rest has nothing to do with you."

Huang Qiying breathed a sigh of relief, finally sending Shen Yu away, and was extremely happy.

Said: "Then I will bring the person here this afternoon."

"Well, go ahead"

At the same time, Shen Hao continued to look at the information sent by Forrest Gump, and Shen Hao wanted to laugh.

The Japanese, fearing that Shen Hao would snipe at the super-dreadnought battleships they purchased from the United States, did not pass through the Wanwan Strait, but took a long detour.

As a result, the entire voyage will be delayed by three months.

However, Japan's Fuso-class super dreadnought battleships have already been launched and are capable of combat.

However, at present, Japan has not chosen to continue fighting, but is working overtime to catch up.

After such a long construction period.

Shen Hao’s two shipyards located in Wanwan and Guangdong have been completed.

This shipyard is fully capable of building the latest battleships, as well as various warships and submarines.

Now, Shen Hao already has enough submarines, so Shen Hao did not order the shipyard to build one.

Instead, they directly built super-dreadnought battleships.

The two shipyards started construction at the same time, and the speed was faster than that of Japan.

Originally, Shen Hao planned to go directly to the aircraft carrier, but he lacked the technology, so he gave up this idea.

This battleship will eventually be eliminated.

The air defense capability is too poor.

At the same time, Kong Jie also sent a telegram saying that he had already left for Shaanxi.

Shen Hao began to send people to contact the warlords in Shaanxi who were dissatisfied with Lu Jianzhang. The best way was to cooperate internally and externally.

Lu Jianzhang built brothels, grew opium, demolished universities in Shaanxi, and made money everywhere, which can be said to have caused public outrage.

In addition, after Lu Jianzhang became the governor, he began to suppress the local soldiers in Shaanxi Province and only promoted people from Anhui.

This also caused many low-level officers to be very dissatisfied.

In addition, Lu Jianzhang treated the revolutionaries very cruelly. He would kill anyone he caught, and as a result, he killed many civilians, so he was nicknamed Lu the Butcher.

Most of the new troops in Shaanxi were members of the Tongmenghui. Naturally, Lu Jianzhang's killing spree filled many people with hatred, but they dared not speak out.

According to intelligence, Shen Hao also has a candidate in Shaanxi, that is Chen Shufan.

Today, there are numerous warlord factions in various provinces. If warlords of small factions want to survive, they can only join the big warlords, otherwise they will be eliminated.

Chen Shufan was one of the many small warlords in Shaanxi Province. In order to maintain his rule in Shaanxi, he wavered between various forces and was a typical opportunist.

Of course, Shen Hao also likes this kind of person.

Speculators are also the easiest to be exploited.

In the late Qing Dynasty, Chen Shufan was an official in charge of logistics in the Shaanxi New Army. During the Xinhai Revolution, Chen Shufan participated in the Shaanxi Uprising and joined the Tongmenghui.

However, because he was not a core figure in the uprising, he was always marginalized and not valued.

When Lu Jianzhang came to Shaanxi as the governor, Chen Shufan joined Lu Jianzhang and was gradually given important positions.

At the same time, many troops were withdrawn by Lu Jianzhang and were also in Shaanxi.

These are all opportunities that can be utilized.

It shouldn't be difficult for Shen Hao to take over Shaanxi, so he handed the information to Kong Jie and no longer paid attention to it.

Just a Lu Jianzhang, Shen Hao didn't take him seriously.

At the same time, in Sichuan Province.

Cai E, Feng Yuxiang and others looked at Chen Xi in shock.

They never expected that Chen Xi would put them under house arrest, and at the same time, in their names, he disrupted all the armies in their hands, and also arrested their direct subordinates.

The speed was so fast that Cai E and others had no way to react.

Cai E looked grim and asked, "General Chen, what do you mean?"

Chen Xi smiled faintly and said: "Can't you see that you have been arrested?"

Feng Yuxiang had a bad feeling in his heart, so he said in shock: "You pretended to join the National Protection Army just to catch us.

But Cao Kun was indeed killed by you.

You killed Cao Kun and tens of thousands of Beiyang troops just to lure us into the game?

General Chen, this price is too high."

Chen Xi said: "Not big at all"

Cai E asked, "Isn't General Chen afraid of Yuan Shikai's punishment?"

Looking at the two people's extremely angry expressions, Chen Xi smiled and said, "Who said I am Yuan Shikai's man?"

Cai E and Feng Yuxiang looked at each other and had a bad feeling in their hearts.

If they are not Yuan Shikai’s men, then whose men are they?

A name popped up in both of their minds at the same time.

Shen Hao!

Cai E was shocked and asked, "Chen Xi, are you Shen Hao's man?"

Feng Yuxiang also stared at Chen Xi, trying to find the answer from his face.

Now that the situation is completely under control, Chen Xi is too lazy to pretend anymore.

With a slight smile, he admitted without further ado: "You two are right. I am indeed President Shen's man."
