After the New Year, the Qing government, under the pressure of the current situation, hastily announced its preparations for establishing a constitution and issued an outline of the constitution.
The outline stipulates that imperial power is sacred and inviolable, and that imperial authority is hereditary forever.
Well, this is not a problem.
In the current world, constitutional monarchy is the mainstream, and republican countries are in the minority.
However, the cabinet list subsequently announced by the Qing government completely disappointed the world.
Damn it, have you ever seen that 90 people were all cabinets of the princes of the Eight Banners?
Such an approach of changing the soup without changing the medicine is treating the people of the world as fools.
Well, since your Manchu and Qing government cheated and treated us as fools, don’t blame me.
The table was turned over.
This move by the Qing court pushed the originally neutral constitutionalists to the opposite side.
Why do the constitutionalists want to support the Qing court's constitutionalization?
Isn't it because they want to take power after the constitution is established?
As a result, the Qing government is actually ready to kick them away and play behind closed doors.
This has touched the bottom line of the constitutionalists.
As a result, the constitutionalists in various places who were still in a wait-and-see state also gave up and joined forces with the revolutionaries.
However, the anti-Qing power was not strengthened by the joining of the constitutionalists, but weakened by their struggle for power with the revolutionary party.
The constitutionalists are basically local gentry and tycoons, belonging to the class of vested interests, so they are not enthusiastic about revolution.
Now it's all because of the Qing court's greed for power that has forced them to go to the opposite side.
They and the Revolutionary Party had nothing to do with each other.
Joining the revolution was not their original intention.
What they were doing now was nothing more than trying to get the Qing government to make concessions and delegate power.
The constitutionalists' thirst for power was no worse than that of the Qing court.
After they joined the revolution, they wanted to seize leadership.
Therefore, the domestic situation has not been calm during this period.
Although the various forces have not fought as violently as last year, there are still constant conflicts.
In particular, the internal strife between the constitutionalists and the revolutionary parties within the provinces has never ceased.
After Hunan became independent, the internal forces were divided into two factions.
One was the constitutionalist forces headed by Tan Yankai, and the other was the revolutionary party forces headed by Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren.
The constitutionalists in Hunan were very powerful and soon controlled most of the New Army.
Huang Xing and his gang had no other capital in Hunan except their reputation, and they were quickly squeezed out of the leadership.
The constitutionalists in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were also very powerful, but because the new armies in the two places were relatively strong, the situation was slightly better, but there were also a lot of troubles.
Later, the military governments of the two provinces also made some concessions, ceding part of the civilian power and allowing them to set up provincial councils.
The constitutionalist forces in southern Anhui, Fujian and Jiangxi are relatively small, and the military has an absolute advantage, so the situation is best and the military government can basically operate normally.
The situation in Shaanxi is the most complicated.
The revolutionary party, the constitutionalists, the Communist Party, and the New Army are entangled in each other, and no one can have an absolute advantage.
Of course, Hubei, including southern Shaanxi, is different.
The powerful Science and Socialist Party does not play by the current rules at all.
No second political force is allowed to exist within their sphere of influence, whether it is a revolutionary party or a constitutionalist.
They are all cleansed.
Because of the previous land reform, all the gentry with a bad reputation were suppressed, many of them were constitutionalists.
They were either hung on tree branches to show the public, or they were building roads and digging holes.
The remaining gentry were more open-minded and cooperative, so naturally they We will not go against the Socialist Party of Science and Technology.
As for other revolutionary parties, they must either obey the leadership of the Socialist Party of Science or get out.
If they want to cause trouble, they will be suppressed in the same way.
So far, hundreds of self-proclaimed "revolutionary parties" have been shot, and thousands of "revolutionary parties" have joined the action of building the country, building roads and mining together with the constitutionalists.

Most of these guys are party members.
Wen Desi and the Socialist Party have never had a good impression of these heroes, because most of them are speculators.
There are some differences in eastern Sichuan, such as Chongqing Prefecture, Kuizhou Prefecture Wanxian, Shunqing Prefecture Nanchong, Suiding Prefecture Dazhou, Baoning Prefecture Langzhong, Zhongzhou, Youyang Prefecture, Shiditing, Taipingting Wanyuan and other places , were all infiltrated by the Socialist Party of Science and Technology.
Basically, except for a few prefectures and cities that were still under the rule of the Qing court, the state and county offices in other places had become decorations.
Their orders could not even get out of the government office.
They had no choice but to replace the government officials with policemen from the Socialist Party of Science and Technology.
Last year, the Socialist Party of Science and Technology paid them taxes from the city, but this year, even this tax money was gone.
If the Socialist Party of Science and Technology hadn’t paid them living expenses and food, they would all have starved to death.
Their only task now is to write a letter to their superiors to report that they are safe.
Some people may ask whether any of these officials are uncooperative.
It must be admitted that there are still some who are not afraid of death, such as the new county magistrate from Yuechi County.
This new Jinshi was a young man who was unwilling to cooperate with the work of the Socialist Party of Science and Technology, and even made noises and curses, so he was sent to the mines to receive labor education.
Of course, the revolutionary party, gentry, and socialist forces here were also wiped out.
March 1, the 34th year of Guangxu's reign, 1908, Chengdu, railway station.
At this time, the Chengdu Railway Station, which was built less than two months ago, was covered in red and colorful decorations.
There were more than a dozen teams of dragon and lion dancers in the station square, colorful flags, loud gongs and drums, and bursts of music could be heard from time to time among the crowds of people rubbing shoulders.
There were cheers and cheers, which was more lively than a temple fair.
The new Sichuan Governor Chen Kuilong stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Hahaha, the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway has been successfully opened to traffic, and Minister Wen should be credited with the first contribution.
Minister Wen is worthy of being our number one person in the Qing Dynasty's foreign affairs."
Chen Kuilong picked up a big wallet when he took office. , it is a great thing to encounter the opening of the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway.
On the contrary, Xiliang is currently beating his chest and stamping his feet at the Governor's Office in Guangzhou.
Wen Desi said calmly: "Your Majesty, Governor, thank you.
This railway is only a part of the Sichuan-Hankong Line, and it is only the Chengdu-Chongqing South Line.
It will not be fully credited until Sichuan-Hankou is officially opened to traffic."
Because of his achievements in building railways and setting up steel mills, Wen Desi was highly recommended by the two governors of Sichuan, Xiliang and Zhao Erfeng.
After the news of the completion of the Chengdu-Chongqing Line was reported at the end of February, he was promoted by the Qing government to the rank of Zuo Shilang of the Postal and Communications Department, with a rank of third rank.
With double-eyed flower feathers.
Of course, when Wen Desi attended the opening ceremony today, he still wore the same suit as before, not the zombie uniform of the Qing Dynasty.
Zhao Erfeng, the former governor of Sichuan and the current minister in Tibet, showed off from the side: "The Chengdu-Chongqing North Line is almost ready.
It will be opened to traffic in half a month at most, and the Sichuan Ring Railway will be completed.
The Neiyi Line can be opened to traffic at the end of the month at most."
He said at the sidelines The Sichuan Governor's term of office was not in vain.
The experts from Xingke were stuffed with a lot of terminology, and he still had a relatively accurate understanding of the progress of the railway.
Now I finally have the opportunity to show off as an "expert" in front of my colleagues, which feels really good.
"As for the Sichuan-Hankou Line," Zhao Erfeng frowned and said helplessly, "We can only see whether the bandits in Hubei will cooperate."
"Brother Zhao, why do you think this bandit is so weird that he actually helps us build the railway?"
Chen Kuilong glanced at Wen Desi and said nonchalantly.
Zhao Erfeng said: "What's strange about this?
Bandits have always liked to build roads.
Besides, building this railway will also be good for them."
Chen Kuilong said again in a very calm tone: "Haha, Minister Wen also likes to build roads.
I also heard that Minister Wen's masterpiece Materialism in China is extremely popular among the bandits, and they are also among the people in Hubei and southern Shaanxi. vigorously promote” Many officials around were still talking, but as soon as Chen Kuilong said these words, they suddenly became quiet.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to deal with it.
At this moment, Zhao Erfeng, who was still thinking about how he would torture the Tibetan scum after the Sichuan-Tibet Highway was repaired, suddenly realized what he was doing, and immediately had a long face.
Before Wen Desi could speak, he asked angrily : "Brother Chen, what do you mean?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Brother, I also like to build roads.
Brother Xiliang also likes to build roads."
Wen Desi also replied calmly: "Your Majesty the Governor, anyone who wants to make a difference will do things like building roads and bridges.
As for them liking my books, it's perfectly normal.
I'm not bragging. , in today's China and even today's world, when it comes to the analysis and explanation of industrialized society, if materialistic China believes that it is second, no one can be called first.
If Hubei dares to be called first, they are not fools.
How can they even be good or bad?
I can’t tell the difference” After saying that, he glanced at Chen Kuilong contemptuously.
But he felt secretly happy.
He was just thinking about how to fall out, but he didn't expect Chen Kuilong to come to his door automatically.
Caffur, who was next to him, interrupted at the right moment: "Our editors are citizens of the United States of America.
Your Excellency, Governor, please pay attention to your remarks."
His tone was condescending, making the foreigner's airs even more serious.
Chen Kuilong's face turned green and red at this time, and he was stunned by several people who took turns to slap bricks.
At the same time, it was able to wake him up, and he couldn't help but secretly regret: Yes, why did I forget that this Wen Desi is an "American"?
This guy was completely out of his wits because of the power, and he became angry with embarrassment.
Chen Kuilong came to Chengdu after the Spring Festival to take over.
Of course he knew the names of Wen Desi and Xingke Company.
What he knew even more was that Xingke Company was a very fat company and Wen Desi was so poor that he only had money.
Big money.
Chen Kuilong is a guy who takes "Thousands of miles as an official just for money" as his motto.
If he meets a super rich man like Mr.
Wen, if he doesn't kill him with a knife, how can he be worthy of the hard work of ten years of hard work?
To be honest, Lao Chen took a lot of risks in order to make a fortune.
Although there was no overt rebellion in Sichuan, the fact that eastern Sichuan was basically no longer under the control of the Qing court was no longer a secret in the court.
What's more, Huguang and Shaanxi have already undergone revolution, and it is really not easy to enter Sichuan.
Lao Chen took a boat from Tianjin to Guangzhou, then passed through Guangxi and Yunnan and detoured to Sichuan.
He even spent New Year's Eve on the road.
It can be considered a hardship.
But for the sake of money, what’s the risk?
But Wen Desi is really not on the road.
Master, is it easy for me to have such a hard journey?
Knowing that when the master comes to take office, he doesn’t even show his face and doesn’t even give out any money.
It’s really too much.
Yes, when Chen Kuilong took over as the governor of Sichuan, Wen Desi ignored him at all.
As for the red envelopes, there was no trace of them, not even a copper penny.
In fact, this can only mean that Chen Kuilong came at the wrong time.
If he had come a year, or even half a year earlier, Wen Desi would never have neglected him like this.
At least tens of thousands of oceans will not be missing.
Because for us liberal arts tycoons, problems that can be solved with money are not problems.
To keep the governor out of trouble, spending a hundred or eighty thousand is nothing.
But now that Wen Desi's uprising was ready, Chen Kuilong still had a useful role, and he was eager for Chen Kuilong to come and cause trouble for him.
As for Chen Kuilong, in his opinion, Wen Desi relied on his merits and had the support of big bosses, so he didn't criticize him.
He was also angry when he said these words today.
He originally just wanted to take the opportunity to beat down Desi and let him know who has the final say in Sichuan now.

Who knew that because of his impatience, he ignored Wen Desi and a "foreign man", and ended up pretending to be a fool.
If Wen Desi were Chinese, Chen Kuilong could still show off his official power, but Wen Desi was a "foreign master".
Even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to show off his official power to a foreign master.
In addition, he also thought that this Wen De heir also had the title of "Left Minister of the Postal and Communications Department" on his head.
Although this official position is not as good as that of the governor, he is theoretically considered a capital official and is not under the jurisdiction of you, the governor of Sichuan.
"My lords, I am not feeling well, so I will take my leave now."
Wen Desi pretended to be angry, bowed his hands to Zhao Erfeng, and walked away.
"Brother Chen, just take care of yourself."
Zhao Erfeng was also very unhappy and walked away with a straight face.
Damn it, Wen Desi was recommended by me, you are not giving me face.
Chen Kuilong could not step down after being treated like this by these two people.
His face was as suffocated as pig liver and his whole body was shaking with anger.
He stood for a while and then left angrily.
The opening ceremony ended unhappy.
Xingke Headquarters.
As soon as Wen Desi returned from Chengdu, he immediately summoned all important subordinates in Neijiang for a meeting.
"Comrades, the time for the Sichuan uprising is almost here.
Judging from the current situation, early May at the latest will be the time for our uprising."
After seeing everyone gathered, Wen Desi did not say any nonsense and directly announced The decision to prepare for an uprising.
"Oh" there was a burst of cheers in the conference room.
Chief Engineer Wei Sunan's face turned red with excitement.
He jumped up and shouted: "Long live the revolution, long live President Wen."
Everyone in the venue also shouted "Long live the revolution, long live Mr.
Li".
Immediately, applause broke out, and a storm of applause erupted in the venue.
After everyone had been holding it in for so long, they could finally vent their anger.
Both the natives of this time and space and the advanced biochemical people were all in ecstasy.
Especially the biochemical people, regardless of whether they come from the 23rd century, in fact, their revolutionary sentiments are the strongest, and their hatred of the Manchus is even far greater than that of the natives of this time and space.
This is not surprising, because in the 23rd century, "patriotism" is the bottom order of cyborgs in all countries.
No country with a normal IQ would want to cultivate a group of traitors.
Natural people would not be able to forcefully instill this kind of thinking, but it would be foolish not to do the same to biochemical people.
Therefore, when it comes to feelings for the country, cyborgs actually far exceed those of most natural people, because this is the memory engraved in their souls and genes.
China in the 23rd century has long been a superpower.
The earth is no longer the most important goal.
"Our journey is the ocean of stars" is China's pursuit in this era.
But after this era, seeing a declining China, the anger and grievance caused by the psychological gap cannot be understood by those who have not experienced it.
The Manchu Qing regime, which was incompetent, cruel internally and cruel externally, and brought good China into a trap, was naturally included in the list of targets that must be eliminated.
It can be said that in the past two years, the biochemical people have been very depressed.
The object of allegiance in their lower-level orders was the Chinese government in the 23rd century.
After time travel, it was automatically changed to Wen Desi.
Anyway, it would not be the rotten regime in front of them.
After everyone was noisy for more than ten minutes, they gradually calmed down.
Wen Desi smiled and said: "The preparations you are each responsible for must be confirmed again to make sure nothing is missed."
"Please rest assured, Mr.
Wen, and promise to complete the task," everyone replied in unison
