After Yuan Fang surrendered to Chen Jingyun, it also represented the end of the major battles inside and outside Fuzhou, and from a military perspective, the Fuzhou uprising had been successful. When the large-scale military operation is over, political things collide. Chen Jingyun had just arranged the affairs of Yuan Fang, and after returning to the city headquarters, he was already exhausted and planned to rest for a few hours first. But before he could sleep, a large group of people came to the headquarters.

The group of people who came included literati of the League like Zheng Zuyin and Wei Shengtian, as well as officers of the League like Lin Wenying and Xiao Qibin, as well as a group of councillors and gentry from the Advisory Bureau, and suddenly saw such a large group of people coming, Chen Jingyun had some doubts, and his doubts were doubts, but he still showed a smile with that obviously tired face, and after taking two steps forward: "Mr. Zheng, Mr. Wei!" ”

Zheng Zuyin was also smiling, and he had already spoken before he came over: "Now that Fuzhou has been recovered, Zihua has made great contributions, and he is really a hero of my Fujian Republic!" ”

Zheng Zuyin's words are good, and this kind of obviously flattering words are also extremely pleasant to Chen Jingyun's ears!

"Come, come, sit down!" Chen Jingyun continued as he commanded: "The reason why Fujian was able to recover is the common credit of our revolutionary aspirants, and Zihua is just taking the lead!" ”

Chen Jingyun did not mean to be modest at all, and at this critical moment, he wanted to occupy the name of righteousness and show himself as the commander-in-chief of the Fujian National Army.

Wei Shengtian and the others were also smiling, and a group of people, including Lin Wenying, Xiao Qibin and a group of gentry from the Advisory Bureau, also came over and sat down one after another. Naturally, some of them laughed, and some had bitter faces.

Chen Jingyun looked over at a glance and found that these were all the same as himself, with a tired look on his face. These people are estimated to be the same as themselves, they haven't closed their eyes all night, Chen Jingyun and other officers and soldiers have to fight, and Zheng Zuyin and Wei Shengtian are anxious on the one hand, and on the other hand, they are also busy contacting people from all sides.

After coming in, after everyone praised each other for a few words, Zheng Zuyin quickly changed the topic: "Now that Fuzhou has been controlled by the national army inside and outside the city, and Fuzhou has been recovered, I think it's time to establish a revolutionary political axe." On the one hand, it is necessary to calm the people's minds and avoid chaos in Fuzhou, and on the other hand, it is also necessary to send a telegram to the whole country, telling them that the revolutionary cause is not a matter of Hubei Province alone, but a great cause of the whole country! ”

Chen Jingyun drank tea while listening, and after listening, he also put down the teacup: "Mr. Zheng is right, now that Fuzhou has been recovered, then the military and political axe should be established, on the one hand, there is a name, and on the other hand, it is good to organize manpower and material resources to step up armaments to prevent the Manchu forces from counterattacking!" ”

Wei Shengtian also nodded: "Well, the Hubei side also established a military and political axe on the second day of the uprising!" As a result, he led the uprising of all parties, and the army quickly occupied the three towns of Wuhan to resist the counterattack of the Qing army! ”

Speaking of the Qing army's counterattack, so that everyone present is a sinking heart, they also know a little bit about the situation in Hubei, on the surface of the Hubei People's Army occupies three towns, with tens of thousands of troops, but this is only a superficial phenomenon, the news from various channels has shown that the Beiyang Army is gradually moving south, the pressure of the Hubei People's Army is very great, and the casualties of the Hubei People's Army in several battles before and after can be described as extremely heavy. The situation in Hubei is so bad, naturally they will encounter the same situation in Hubei, so the sense of crisis among the people present is very strong.

Wei Shengtian, Linster and Chen Jingyun all agreed, and the people below naturally agreed!

In fact, these issues had been discussed before the Alliance and Chen Jingyun, but at that time, the Alliance's main focus was on how to revolt, and Chen Jingyun's attention was also on fighting for military power, so there was not much in-depth discussion on the political axe structure here. However, this kind of thing has the military and political axe model in Hubei as a reference, and it doesn't take too much effort, and soon a general military and political axe framework will be taken out.

If it is only called Fuzhou Military and Political Axe, it is nominally just a city's military and political axe, and there is no name for the whole of Fujian, which is absolutely unacceptable to Chen Jingyun, Zheng Zuyin, Wei Shengtian and others also feel that the great cause of Fujian's recovery is still waiting for them to continue, and naturally they are not willing to limit their footsteps to a city of Fuzhou.

Among the various departments under the Fujian military and political axe, Zheng Zuyin and others originally wanted to copy the Hubei side, but Chen Jingyun said that Fujian has Fujian's own limited surname, and it cannot be copied one by one.

There are nine ministries: the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Communications, and the Ministry of Supervision. After the nine major departments were determined, Wei Shengtian said: "The structure of the military and political axe has been decided, and now I will nominate Chen Jingyun as the governor of the military and political axe of Fujian, in charge of all military and political affairs!" ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone below immediately became cautious! When they were discussing the political axe structure just now, they didn't care about anything, they cared about who could hold what position, such as the position of governor.

To be the governor of this position, it doesn't mean that you can just nominate a cat or a dog, at least there are not a few qualified people present. Zheng Zuyin's prestige within the Fujian League is enough, but it is impossible for the new army and the people in Fujian Province, not to mention the people, not to mention the army under Chen Jingyun, I am afraid that even the new army under the control of Lin Wenying and other alliances will not admit it. Wei Shengtian is an outsider, he has only been in Fujian for half a month, and he doesn't even know a few people, if he didn't come under the name of Sun Chinese, it is estimated that no one will pay attention to him. The remaining Lin Wenying and Xiao Qibin are not enough prestige for the new army, let alone others.

In these days, prestige can be said to be there, and it is also possible to say no! The most obvious example is that Yuan Fang scoffed at Li Jimin and Lin Wenying's persuasion, but after receiving Sun Daoren's letter and meeting Chen Jingyun, he immediately surrendered. In other words, if Lin Wenying and Xiao Qibin were allowed to be the governors, let alone persuade Qin Yunian and other new troops to surrender, it is estimated that the new army in the city would immediately be in chaos.

Actually, they also have a good choice, and that is Xu Chongzhi. But Xu Chongzhi is far away in Shaowu Mansion, where there are also several battalions of new troops who need to be persuaded to surrender and strong senior generals to take charge, it is impossible to return to Fuzhou in a short time, not to mention, even if he can come back, it will be a few days later, and the cucumbers and vegetables will be cold after a few days, not to mention the position of governor.

Everyone thought about it, and they all set their eyes on Chen Jingyun!

Now Chen Jingyun can be said to be the best choice, first of all, he is a member of the Alliance, although he has only joined the League for a few days, but he is also a genuine member of the Alliance, second, he has enough military prestige, and now he is now the commander-in-chief of the Fujian National Army, he ordered all the new troops in the city, whether it is to preside over military operations or persuade other new army and old troops in Fujian to surrender, they have enough qualifications. Third, he is still a son of a rich family, in the eyes of the gentry and businessmen in Fuzhou City, he is always much stronger than those big-headed soldiers.

The combination of these factors made Chen Jingyun the only candidate for governor. Otherwise, the Fujian military and political axe can only learn from Hubei, and use bullets to force Li Yuanhong to be the governor, and use a gun to force Sun Daoren or Wang Lin to be the governor.

After everyone pondered for a moment, as Chen Jingyun's most powerful subordinate, Ma Cheng immediately stood up: "I, Ma Cheng, resolutely support Commander Chen as the governor!" ”

With Ma Cheng at the beginning, several other generals of Chen Jingyun's line also stood up one by one, including Lin Feitai, Li Lianyang and others shouted in unison: "We resolutely support Commander Chen as the governor!" ”

Subsequently, Li Jimin and Yuan Fang also stood up to express their support for Chen Jingyun, at this time, Xiao Qibin looked left and right, and then also stood up to express his support, and then Lin Wenying and Peng Shousong's eyes showed unwillingness, but they also stood up and expressed their support for Chen Jingyun as the governor.

With the words of these sub-generals, the remaining members of the Alliance and the members of the Advisory Bureau also agreed one by one. In this way, Chen Jingyun became the governor of Fujian's military and political axes.

After solving this big problem, it is time to discuss the candidates for the chief and deputy heads of the various ministries under the military and political axe. Lin Wenying and the others all had a look of expectation in their eyes, and they couldn't compete with Chen Jingyun, but they could always occupy a position in the positions of the ministers below.

First of all, the position of the chief minister of civil affairs, this is easy to do, there is no one else suitable for everyone present except Zheng Zuyin, Zheng Zuyin was originally a member of the Advisory Bureau, and should be able to handle government affairs smoothly, the second minister is Gao Zeyan, this person is also an old revolutionary party, he devoted himself to education in his early years, and was later elected as a member of the Advisory Bureau, and he also has a lot of prestige in civil affairs.

Then there is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, who is engaged in revolutionary warfare, and the people present can pull out a group, but doing diplomacy and dealing with foreigners is not their strong point, and immediately Zheng Zuyin pondered for a moment and said: "I recommend Lin Changming, Secretary General of the Advisory Bureau, to take this position!" ”

"Oh?" Chen Jingyun is not very familiar with this appointment, and Lin Changming is not a member of the Alliance! So Chen Jingyun asked, "Who is this person?" ”

Zheng Zuyin explained: "Zong Meng (Lin Changminzi) studied in the East and entered Paddy Field University in his early years, and he had a lot of insight into politics and economy. ”

Chen Jingyun nodded: "Since Mr. Zheng recommended it, it must be a talent!" ”
