: The appearance is in harmony and separation

A few days later, Wu Shaoting personally handled the admission procedures for Song Jiaoren and Yu Youren. The news quickly spread like wildfire. First, it caused a considerable shock within the National People's Progress Association, and then became the focus of current affairs of the entire South. Many people who could see the inside story began to feel that the southern revolutionary faction was undergoing major changes. From the Hongmen Zhigongtang who supported Sun Yat-sen in the past to the *** elders joining the National People's Progress Association, the situation had already revealed clear traces from the duckweed. Wu Shaoting's power was step by step replacing Sun Yat-sen's faction and became the largest revolutionary force in the country.

Wu Shaoting naturally had a foresighted prediction about the impact of Song Jiaoren and Yu Youren after joining the National People's Progressive Party. He now does not have to worry about Sun Yat-sen's feelings in Japan. The announcement of a breakup with the revolutionary party last year was the foreshadowing for today. Song Jiaoren was a revolutionary leader as famous as Sun Yat-sen, and the political limelight of the past was also buzzing for a while. It was truly a perfect match with Guangdong, which had always been at the forefront of the limelight.

By the end of the month, Song Jiaoren and Yu Youren, supported by Wu Shaoting, quickly joined the political work of the National People's Progressive Council.

During the first seven or eight days, we can see that Song Jiaoren often went out with Cen Chunxuan. The two chatted and laughed calmly and their relationship seemed very harmonious, which made outsiders think that these two big figures in the political world felt that they met too late. In fact, before Cen Chunxuan went south, he had had contacts with Song Jiaoren, Sun Yat-sen and others, and they still had familiar Russian relations with each other, but Cen Chunxuan even had the meaning of sitting and waiting to sell.

Now the two are walking together in Guangdong, and the two whirlwinds are truly combined into one, and the collision produces a huge reaction.

When the southern provinces go to the northern Beiyang, the forces felt more pressure. However, the more pressure they were, the more silent the forces appeared. For a moment, the whole of China seemed to have completely calmed down, leaving only undercurrents that were not easy to detect. Everyone was watching the changes and wanted to carefully stare at Wu Shaoting or Yuan Shikai's next move.

One day at noon at the end of April, Wu Shaoting got up and prepared to return to the official residence for lunch after processing the declaration sent by Chandler, the Sino-German factory. He was in a good mood, and Chandler finally had explosive power. After launching the "Chandler" machine gun in January, he immediately improved the 65mm mortar, launched a more portable 42mm mortar, and purchased the production license of the m1908 68mm howitzer and m1911 70mm field gun from the Krupp Arsenal.

The m1908 howitzer is already an outdated weapon in the Krupp Arsenal, so it almost didn't cost much agency fees. As for the m1911 field gun, it is a newer artillery. At present, the German Affairs Committee has only approved the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Turkey and other allies to be produced by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Turkey and other allies. This is the first time since Li Hongzhang has approved the new weapon to be produced in China.

While walking along the South Hall Corridor, Wu Shaoting thought in his mind that it was time to form a large-scale artillery force. With the current military level of China, a powerful artillery force was enough to sweep the entire territory.

At this moment, a servant suddenly trotted from behind.

"General, General!"

Wu Shaoting stopped and turned around, waiting for the attendant to approach, then asked, "What's the matter?"

The attendant said, "General, please see you if you have important matters. Others are waiting outside the South Hall."

Wu Shaoting was a little surprised. Cen Chunxuan has become more and more active recently. After thinking about it, he said: "Mr. Yun shouldn't have eaten yet. You can invite him to the official residence to have dinner together."

The attendant responded and then hurriedly left again.

Wu Shaoting answered the official residence and told his servants to prepare more dishes and chopsticks. After looking at the living room clock, it was already twelve o'clock. It seemed that Zhang Xiaoya would not come at noon today. He also told the servants to prepare the meals quickly and deliver them to the Zhang family business. Naturally, his wife should be more concerned when she is away.

As soon as the dining table was laid out, Cen Chunxuan's voice came from the door.

Wu Shaoting got up and went to the entrance to greet him, but everyone was already very familiar with him. After a few simple and polite words, he came to the living room.

"Yun Gong, I'll stay here for dinner today. Xiaoya is busy with business again. I'm the only one. Come on, let's not have to sit in the living room, just go to the restaurant." While smiling, Wu Shaoting had already pulled Cen Chunxuan to the restaurant. After Cen Chunxuan thanked him, he no longer deliberately refused and sat down with Wu Shaoting's arrangement.

"Oh, the old man came here to disturb him this time, and I hope Ting Shuai will forgive me." Cen Chunxuan said with a smile.

"Where is it? In my opinion, Mr. Yun is my senior, and in my opinion, Mr. Yun is my elder. I can only give advice at all times. How can I disturb you?" Wu Shaoting said politely.

"I was moved after hearing Tingshuai's words. Since that's the case, I didn't beat around the bush, so I just told you to tell me. To be honest, the old man came here today at this time, and wanted to talk about the internal affairs of the organization with Tingshuai." Cen Chunxuan's face gradually became rigorous, and he would look like this whenever he was talking about business.

"Oh? What happened within us when we join us?" Wu Shaoting asked curiously.

"I wonder if Ting Shuai has noticed Song Xunchu and Yu Youren's rectification of the organizational program recently." Cen Chunxuan asked back.

"Rectification?" Wu Shaoting rarely cares about political work, especially the political work within the Communist Youth League. Although he seemed to have heard the rumors before, he never took it seriously. Now that Cen Chunxuan mentioned this matter so seriously, he was afraid that Song Jiaoren and Yu Youren must have made some big moves. "The fisherman and Mr. Yu have only been busy for more than ten days. How could they suddenly think of the rectification program? Yun Gong, what is going on?"

"Oh, it turns out that Tingshuai, don't know about this? It's not that I like to talk bad things behind my back, but this time Song Xunchu was indeed a little too hasty. He almost instilled all the political program of the past into the National People's Progressive Council. Originally, our political opinion was to promote the autonomy of the province and promote republic, but now everything in the organization is the words of revolution, democracy, and party politics. It's not impossible. I also understand Song Xunchu's ideals and intentions, but it is also considered the actual situation." Cen Chunxuan had an anxious tone at first, and when he spoke the last sentence, he became a serious and serious sentence.

Wu Shaoting was silent for a while. A few days ago, he heard that Song Jiaoren and Cen Chunxuan had a harmonious relationship and were very similar. Unexpectedly, this was just a superficial phenomenon. He could see that Cen Chunxuan's intention was that the other party was an old bureaucratic figure and had put in a lot of effort in Guangdong. Naturally, he did not want later generations to shake his status. However, if he was fair, he did not think that Song Jiaoren's program rectification was excessive. It could even be said that Song Jiaoren was introducing the revolutionary righteousness into the National People's Progress Association according to his own wishes.

Song Jiaoren was a revolutionary idealist, and his ambition was only about how to use power to change the destiny of the country, not the "power" itself. Therefore, Wu Shaoting was very relieved of Song Jiaoren's actions.

In contrast, Cen Chunxuan is a complete politician. Even if he is not very scheming, he will never relax his pursuit of power.

"Mr. Yun, I will have a good talk with the fisherman about this matter." He sighed slowly, and then said, "However, I sincerely believe that if you join forces with Mr. Yun, we will definitely make our joint progress faster and better. So I hope that on the issue of Mr. Yun and Mr. Yun can negotiate calmly on the overall interests. As long as there is room for negotiation, we will definitely find an opportunity to reach a consensus."
