In Shen Hao's study, Feng Guozhang handed Shen Hao some telegrams and letters.

These are all secret messages between him and Duan Qirui, Xu Shichang, Sun Baoqi and others.

Most of the above content discusses how to resist Yuan Shikai's proclaimed emperor.

Most of them are against it.

Shen Hao glanced at it carefully and put it down.

In order to proclaim himself emperor, Yuan Shikai negotiated with the Japs and signed the Twenty-One Treaty with Japan.

This move was completely chilling and alienated all the old officials in Beiyang, and everyone was against him.

But he still went his own way and was obsessed with becoming emperor.

Shen Hao remembered that it was not long after Yuan Shikai became emperor.

It seems that the southwest warlord Cai E launched a movement to protect the country.

Sun, Huang and others were also raising funds in Nanyang to prepare for counterattack.

Yan Xishan, Lu Jianzhang and others who originally supported Yuan Shikai also turned against Yuan Shikai and boycotted him.

I have to say that Yuan Shikai felt lonely when he proclaimed himself emperor. He stepped down in less than a hundred days. He had a great time.

Yan Xishan is very good at following the trend.

In terms of backbone, he is not as strong as Feng Guozhang and Duan Qirui.

Perhaps this is why Yan Xishan has been able to stand up for so many years.

Seeing that Shen Hao had finished reading the letter, Feng Guozhang smiled and said:"Brother Shen, why don't we join forces to boycott President Yuan's 27th proclaimed emperor.

With the power of you and me, I will contact the generals of several provinces.

President Yuan just wants to To become emperor, you have to weigh the important relationships."

Hearing this, Shen Hao saw that Feng Guozhang did not want to see Yuan Shikai become emperor, but he was not so courageous and did not dare to openly quarrel with him.

He was afraid that Yuan Shikai would settle the score with him and then ask Shen Hao to cooperate.

The purpose was nothing more than to get Shen Hao to support him and make him more courageous.

This idea is good, but it is not in Shen Hao's interests at all.

Yuan Datou proclaimed himself emperor, only reigned for a few months at most, and then died.

If God wants it to perish, it will surely happen.

Only after becoming emperor and acting in reverse will arouse public outrage.

Those who follow the trend prosper, and those who go against the trend perish.

If he is stopped now, Yuan Datou will be able to sit more securely.

Shen Hao thought for a moment, organized his words, shook his head and said:"My attitude is very obvious. I don't support it, but I won't openly oppose it.

The time has not come yet, and it is not suitable to make trouble with him.

However, proclaiming himself emperor is definitely a dead end. One thing, everyone will turn against him when the time comes.

Let him proclaim himself emperor first."

Seeing that Shen Hao didn't want to change his attitude, Feng Guozhang was a little disappointed.

But as long as you don’t support it, that’s a good thing

"Brother Shen, do you mean that President Yuan will fail in proclaiming himself emperor? Feng Guozhang said curiously;

"This is inevitable. He will not only fail, but even ruin his future. Now that the imperial system is a thing of the past, no one wants to be a slave anymore.

Reversing the course of history is destined to be a tragedy."

Of course, Yuan Datou would lose his life because of this. Shen Hao did not say

"Just wait and see what happens,"

Feng Guozhang said again:"Now the Foreign Affairs Minister, Sun Baoqi, was fired in anger because President Yuan asked him to negotiate the Twenty-One Treaty with Japan, but he was unwilling.

Secretary of State Xu Shichang also resigned.

Chief of Army Duan Qirui, old Duan is probably going to step down soon," Feng Guozhang said with some regret; after all, he and Duan Qirui are Yuan Datou's right-hand men, one direct representative and one Anhui representative. Although they have different interests, they are also a little sad.

Shen Hao smiled and said:"Everyone has something that everyone insists on. There is no need to think so much." Unable to get what he wanted from Shen Hao, Feng Guozhang said no more.

Instead, he smiled and said:"I heard that Foreign Minister Sun Mr. Xu and Mr. Xu want to come to Guangdong for a visit."

Shen Hao said:"Yes, they called before and wanted to come here for a visit.

It is estimated that we will arrive in Guangdong in three to five days."

"That's okay, I'll stay a few more days and have a nice chat with them after not seeing them for a long time."Feng Guozhang is now eager to find someone with whom he agrees.

"Well, General Feng has been having fun at my house these days. Please stay for a while."

Feng Guozhang looked out the window at the picturesque Parade House.

He said with envy on his face:"Brother Shen, your mansion is really luxurious. , but it is more luxurious than the Presidential Palace in Zhongnanhai. I think the only palace in the country can compare with it. Shen

Hao smiled and said:"How can it be compared? The capital city is the center of power and the imperial city where every inch of land is valuable."

In this mountainous place like mine, Guanyin Mountain is free, so it is of no use in a larger place. It is incomparable."

"Haha, Brother Shen, you are so humble.

How much does such a big house cost?" Feng Guozhang asked curiously;

"Not much, 10 million oceans." After Shen Hao finished speaking, Feng Guozhang was stunned and couldn't believe it.

"How many?"

"Ten million oceans!"

After being confirmed again, Feng Guozhang gasped,"Oh my god, that's really luxurious." (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

His total net worth is not even five million oceans..

This Shen Hao spent 10 million yuan to build a house, which is too extravagant.

Feng Guozhang gave a thumbs up and said:"Brother Shen, if I don't obey anyone, I will obey you.

You are really rich."

Shen Hao smiled and said:"You're welcome, but this Guangdong is located in a coastal city."

Feng Guozhang said with an envious look on his face:"Ten million oceans, my dear.

Even President Yuan Da doesn’t have that much money.

If I had so much money, I would definitely buy equipment. I would definitely be reluctant to build such a big house."

Shen Hao laughed and did not explain any more.

Without systematic tasks, Shen Hao would not be so coquettish as to build such a large house covering an area of ​​500 square meters. An acre of manor.

Not only the construction cost is high, but the maintenance cost is also high.

The labor cost is also high.

But apart from these, it is really fun to live in.

Even Shen Hao feels that Beier has a face.

This feeling is something that the previous Governor's Mansion could not bring out. Come.

Immediately, Feng Guozhang asked:"Brother Shen, do you think President Yuan will compromise with Japan and sign the Twenty-One Articles in order to become emperor?"

Shen Hao nodded without any hesitation:"Absolutely, this is little Japan. Agree to his condition of becoming emperor.

However, this condition also harmed the interests of the United States and the British.

Britain, the United States, and Russia will also protest, but they are just protests.

However, once this treaty is signed, President Yuan Da will be infamy for thousands of years.

History is moving forward, and anyone who goes against the grain will surely reap the consequences and fall in the tide of the times without leaving a trace of echo."

Hearing this, Feng Guozhang nodded.

He frowned, and he did not want to see Yuan Shikai give up the interests of the country for his own interests.

This point This was also the reason why he was dissatisfied with Yuan Datou. This move somewhat lost the support of the people.

"If President Yuan really signs this treaty, what will you do, Brother Shen?"

"Of course, it's cool, after all, the signing power is in the hands of President Yuan Da.

It's useless for you to protest unless we go to war with Japan," Shen Hao said.

As soon as he said this, Feng Guozhang's eyes flashed with solemnity and he said:"If we go to war with Japan 817, what are our chances of winning?

Shen Hao thought for a while and said:"The navy dare not say, but the army will eat as much as they come."

First of all, the 50,000 Japanese troops stationed in Qingdao will definitely be annihilated.

However, our President Yuan Da refused to give up his dream and dreamed of becoming emperor.

Little Japan doesn't dare to take action now, it's just a bluff.

The reason why they dare to bully the Germans is because the Germans' energy is currently being diverted to the European battlefield.

The Germans are isolated in Qingdao, which is just picking persimmons."

"Is there no other way but to go to war?"Feng Guozhang said;

Shen Hao stood up and walked to the window, looked at the white clouds in the sky and said:"There is a way, that is, to unite with others to force Yuan Datou to step down."

After hearing this, Feng Guozhang showed a wry smile and said:"Brother Shen, you are like this. It's a bit whimsical.

President Yuan Da still has a lot of troops in his hands. Once he is pressed hard, the result will be another civil war.

Generals such as Cao Kun, Wu Peifu, Feng Yuxiang, Tang Xiangming, Duan Zhigui, Zhang Xiluan, etc. all obeyed President Yuan.

President Yuan has also been kind to me, and I don’t want to take this step until the last moment."

It is obvious that Feng Guozhang is not willing to rebel against Yuan now.

This makes Shen Hao a little disappointed.

Shen Hao believes that Yunnan must also do the same Will support the rebellion.

It seems that a group of loose sand is difficult to deal with.

We must take down these warlords first, and those who hold us back are the most disgusting.

Shen Hao now has 300,000 soldiers and is not afraid of anyone at all, but he has not fought a big battle yet. , Feng Guozhang, Duan Qirui and others did not know Shen Hao's strength.

Shen Hao did not explain this.

The time is not right...
