The History of Beiyang Warlords That You Can't Stop Watching: Zhili
About This Novel
Comparing the Anhui clique, which was waning at the time, and the Feng clique, which was still in its growth stage, it can be said that the Zhi clique has a lot of good cards and the best configuration. There is no doubt that the early Zhili warlords were formed based on the "Three Governors of the Yangtze River" and Cao Kun. They really arrived at DENGFENG after Feng Guozhang resigned. The "Three Governors of the Yangtze River" joined forces with the Cao family and publicly recommended Cao Kun as the leader of the Zhili alliance. At that time, the direct line controlled the important areas of the capital in the north and the prosperous hometowns in the south of the Yangtze River. It really needed guns and pay, and more importantly, Cao Kun also had a top-notch thug under him: Wu Peifu. Although the Zhili clique has always been powerful, it has never really dominated the political situation of the Republic of China like the Anhui clique. Zhili is more like a character who accompanies the prince to study, first with Yuan Shikai, then with Duan Qirui, and later with Zhang Zuolin, which somewhat means "the heart is higher than the sky, the fate is thinner than the paper". Perhaps this is the fate of a good boy: he may get 100% in every exam, but he may not be able to become the class monitor.
