The History of Beiyang Warlords That You Can't Stop Watching: Anhui Clique
About This Novel
The reason why the Anhui clique was able to rise to power quickly after Yuan Shikai's death was because of Duan Qirui's personal ability, which enabled it to gain numerical advantage and form the earliest and most powerful warlord faction of the Beiyang warlords. When the Anhui warlords were in power, Duan Qirui proposed "unification by force," hoping to use "unification" as a life-saving straw to drive officers and soldiers to risk their lives. However, the Anhui warlords, who were born with malnutrition and acquired developmental abnormalities, were simply unable to push forward the war machine. The "unification of force" did not help the Anhui warlords to arrive, but instead contributed to their premature decline. The Anhui warlords, who regarded themselves as orthodox Beiyang warlords, perished due to their arbitrary actions. For the Anhui clique, breaking the old order but trying to use the old order to maintain a new look is a self-contradictory line in itself.
