The president has eaten noodles, what can Bi Yuan do?
In light of the current situation, and with the persuasion of Mr. Lin and others, Bi Futai decisively adopted a policy of non-resistance, announced that the whole province of Shaanxi warmly supported the restoration emperor, and welcomed His Majesty the Emperor to visit Xi'an to inspect the work.
During this process, a small group of anti-reform elements were suppressed by Bi Yuan, and 29 Manchu and Han officials were arrested and imprisoned as traitors to the republic.
Two new newspapers advocating for the republic in Xi'an were investigated and punished. Several scholars who had previously slandered the Sixth Emperor of the Reform Movement as domestic slaves of the three surnames were also expelled home. From top to bottom, from the official to the private sector.
They all spoke with the same voice and sang praises for the Six Emperors who endured humiliation and endured heavy burdens, and endured hardships despite hardships. The whole public opinion was deeply concerned about them, and at the same time, the Qing Dynasty was in a prosperous situation.
In addition, Bi Yuan ordered all the sun and moon flags to be hung in the city, both throughout the city and outside the city, and enshrined the tablets of Ming emperors following Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang at the governor's office. He also personally wrote a memorial for Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, which is called "The 130th Anniversary of Jiashen".
"Sacrifice" to express high support for the reform of Emperor Zhu Liu.
He even led thousands of Manchu and Han officials and soldiers to hold a braid-cutting ceremony at the campus of Dongda University. During the ceremony, Kang said passionately to the soldiers and civilians of Xi'an: "In the past, the Aisin Gioro rebellious family killed us all with just a few knives.
The days of wearing braids will never come back!”
At the same time, the power was sent to the whole country, warning those traitors who still want to resist the reform, if they do not abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side early, they will be despised by the people of the world and become the sinners of history!
In order to express his loyalty to the Six Emperors, he even submitted an article to the "Qing Daily" titled "China is indispensable for a day without an emperor", using fierce words to denounce the so-called republic as a conspiracy of a small group of careerists and a means to fight for power and gain.
Imperialism is the future of China and the future of the world.
Bi Yuan's awakening not only allowed him to return to the embrace of the reform officials, but also saved Xi'an, a thousand-year-old capital, from being destroyed by war. This was the real contribution to the country.
On the seventh day of April, the Sixth Emperor Luanjia arrived in Xi'an.
Bi Yuan led hundreds of civil and military officials in the city, as well as hundreds of gentry, to kneel out of the city to greet the Six Emperors. At the same time, tens of thousands of people were mobilized to warmly welcome the Reform Army into the city.
The ceremony was very lively, with people walking on stilts, playing gongs and drums, playing suonas, and doing tricks...
The scene was very festive and fully met the needs of the Six Emperors.
"Are you convinced?"
"Impressed."
"Will you dare in the future?"
"I don't dare anymore."
A few words from the monarch and his ministers set the tone for the peaceful liberation of the northwest.
Afterwards, Jia Liu said with emotion to the staff around him: "Bi Yuan has flaws in his moral integrity and small faults as a person, but he also has small merits."
This confirmed Bi Yuan's stay as governor of Shaanxi, but there was no room for much improvement.
There is a high probability that after the northwest is stabilized, Bi Futai will either go to Beijing to serve as a member of the House of Representatives or retire early.
The important ministers of the Restoration had nothing to do with him.
In fact, although Bi Yuan was corrupt, he still had talents, and he did a lot of practical things during his governance of Shaanxi. For example, the Yellow River, Luoshui River, and Wei River often flooded and disasters occurred. Bi Yuan often opened warehouses for relief and saved several people's lives. And
Recruiting people to reclaim wasteland and dredge canals to irrigate fields may not achieve great political achievements, but it is not without merit.
It can still be of great use with proper training.
The problem is that Bi Yuan's personal life style is very problematic, especially the chaotic relationship between men. What Jia Liu hated most in his life was his personal life style, so Bi Yuan's career could only end here.
If Bi Yuan still has political ambitions, he may have to distribute Siberian potatoes.
Wang Tingzan, the governor of Gansu, heard that Leerjin was in Shanxi anyway and Bi Yuan had surrendered in Xi'an. After hesitating for a moment, he ordered Gansu to change its banner and pledge allegiance to the reform emperor from that day on.
This move was extremely wise, because Gansu's green battalion troops were simply unable to resist the forces of the Reform Dynasty.
At this point, after the liberation of Shanxi, Shaanxi and Gansu successively announced that they would give up their independence and join the reform family.
Since there were many Manchu soldiers stationed in the northwest, Jia Liu ordered Baoning, who was born in Manchuria, to be the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. He ordered Baoning, who was born in Manchuria, to be the commander-in-chief of the First Army. In this way, he announced to the banner people in the northwest that although the reform court had personally destroyed the Qing Dynasty, it would not treat the banner people.
There was no rejection, and there was no way to talk about the so-called anti-Manchu revolution.
This personnel appointment greatly appeased the Northwest Eight Banners troops. The Northwest Garrison Banner Corps, which was mainly expanded from Xi'an Mancheng Banner Corps, also moved to the Suiyuan area under the leadership of Admiral Se Leng'e.
This army was officially reorganized into the 18th Army of the Reform, and was under the control of Yingyuan, the emperor of the Guanwai Economic Strategy. It was used for the military campaign against Zasak and the expulsion of the Russian Far East military forces.
Half a month ago, Zu Yingyuan was ordered to send envoys to the Russian governor Yin Erkutsk and others who were entrenched in the right map to inform them through official procedures of the "Treaty of Nerchinsk" and "Treaty of Kyaktu" signed between the Qing Dynasty and Russia.
, the Treaty of Blensky was an unequal treaty, so the Restoration court refused to recognize it and required the Russian side to withdraw from the occupied Chinese land. Otherwise, the Restoration government would take decisive measures to safeguard the integrity of the country's territory and sovereignty.
The cabinet was puzzled and confused by the emperor's unilateral announcement of the abolition of the treaty to Russia beyond the cabinet, and believed that such an approach might lead to another war between China and Russia. At present, although the reform army occupied Shengjing, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Ningguta, etc.
However, the logistics aspect is far from being able to bear the burden of a major war.
The cabinet's advice to the outside world is a twelve-word strategy of "recuperating, recuperating, reproducing the population, and planning for the future."
Prime Minister Bo Qing'e believed that even if the treaty signed between the Qing Dynasty and Russia was a loss of power and humiliating the country, the current reform government should maintain the status quo due to its lack of strength, instead of going to war with the Russians outside the country before the country is unified.
The Battle of Yaksa had shown that it was difficult for the imperial court to fight a protracted war with the Russians when there was an extreme lack of population outside the border.
Therefore, if the Russians really want to mobilize military forces to invade Heilongjiang and beyond Zaksa, given the existing road and transportation conditions, the reform army may not be able to achieve great results.
In response, Jia Liu wrote to the cabinet, saying: "My court is unable to start a war, and the Russians are also unable to fight against our court."
and handed over to the cabinet the intelligence on Russia obtained by the original stick-stick office from the Guangzhou Treaty Port.
In fact, Jia Liu knew that the current Empress of Russia was Catherine II. She was a great woman. During her reign, Russia's focus was Poland, Sweden and Ottoman Turkey. Therefore, the Russian army should be fighting with Turkey and Poland at the moment.
fighting, so it is impossible for the main force of the Russian army to drive all the way from Europe to the Far East.
From a military perspective, the troops deployed by Jia Liu outside the customs are far superior to Russia in terms of strength and equipment, but both sides face the same problem, that is, they can withstand small-scale battles, but no one can fight a large-scale war.
.
In this case, there is certainly no need for Jia Liu to continue to show weakness to Russia just because he is afraid of a large-scale war.
The abolition of the three treaties signed with Russia is only a tough external attitude released to the military and civilians across the country from a legal perspective.
Since ancient times, a tough court has always won the strong support of the majority of the military and civilians across the country, and even a tough emperor will gain natural support and closeness from the people.
On this point, Jia Liumen is clear.
However, although his tough attitude towards foreign affairs is just a political illusion, he is still prepared for the worst.
In order to prevent the Russian tsarina from really sending a sizable army to the Far East, Jia Liu ordered Zu Yingyuan to speed up his control of Outer Mongolia.
Militarily, in addition to leaving one army in Heilongjiang to contain the Russian bandit gangs that numbered in the hundreds, the other army was stationed in Outer Mongolia. At the same time, the newly reorganized 18th Army was stationed in Monan Mongolia, and after completing its adaptation, it advanced to the Outer Mongolia region.
, strengthen the reform government's garrison strength in Mobei, and improve the court's effective management of the princes and ministers of Zhasak.
Once Moscow sends troops to the east, the two armies entering the Outer Mongolia region will head north from Tangnusu Lianghai to cut off any connection between Moscow and the Far East.
The Russian map seems huge, but the strategic level is actually similar to Vietnam in the south.
As long as it is cut off in the middle, Moscow will not be able to take care of the Far East, which covers millions of square kilometers.
The Russian armed forces in the Far East cannot play any role in threatening China at all, because their population in the Far East is smaller than that of China.
A powerful Russia will never be China's friend, but will only be China's biggest enemy, because this nation is aggressive, and history has proven this countless times.
Therefore, Jia Liu must cut off the black hands of the Russians extending to the east for the sake of the nation in advance, and turn them from a big country that defeated Eurasia into a European country.
He can do this.
It is much easier to instigate the people in old France to make revolution than to go on an expedition to England.
Even a battle involving tens of thousands of people can achieve this goal.
To this end, he invested countless times more resources outside the customs and outer Mongolia than the Qing court.
Most importantly, he has Jatling.
After the city entry ceremony, Jia Liu settled in Xi'an and would stay in Xi'an for at least a month to resolve Xining, Kulun, Yinli and other places, thereby completing the true unification of the northwest region.
The unification of the northwest will inevitably lead to the peaceful settlement of the southeast and southwest. There is no doubt about this.
If nothing else happens, his eldest cousin, Prince Zheng, will soon announce that he will step down and return to Beijing.
Jiangsu Governor Hao Shuo secretly took measures to assassinate Prince Zheng, but Jia Liu disagreed because he valued family ties and his cousins in the National People's Congress helped him get through the situation no matter what.
Therefore, Hao Shuo is only asked to deal with Da Laobiao instead of killing Da Laobiao.
The residence Bi Yuan arranged for His Majesty the Emperor was Huaqing Pool where Kangxi once lived.
This place has mountains on its back and Wei on its side, built against the Li Mountain. It was called Hot Spring Palace in the Han Dynasty and Huaqing Palace in the Tang Dynasty. Although this place was destroyed during the Anshi Rebellion, it has been built in all dynasties. The current Huaqing Palace was built during Kangxi's western tour.
, now Bi Yuan borrowed flowers to offer Buddha statues and became the western palace of the Sixth Emperor of the Reform Movement.
Le Erjin's power has been sent to all parts of the country, and Jia Liu's decree has also been sent to Yinli, Kulun, Xining and other places. It is nothing more than making the ministers in these places give up their illusions and give up their attempts to fight against the reform with arms.
In line with these decrees, an army of 30,000 troops set off from Xi'an towards Gansu.
During his days living in Huaqingchi, in addition to listening to progress reports from relevant departments and giving feasible suggestions on long-term peace and stability in the northwest, as well as a series of personnel appointments, Jia Liu approved the "Reformation General Officer Rank Evaluation System" drafted by the Ministry of War.
This will put an end to the shortcomings of chaotic military management, unclear military systems, and complicated command systems since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Time flies to July.
Within two months, earth-shaking changes had taken place across the country.
In Jia Liu's words to the staff around him, the situation is very, very good.
