Chaos in Beiyang
About This Novel
After Yuan Shikai's death, the Beiyang warlord group split into three major factions: the Zhili clique headed by Cao Kun and Wu Peifu, the Anhui clique headed by Duan Qirui, and the Feng clique headed by Zhang Zuolin. In order to compete for the actual control of the Beiyang government, the battle between the government and the academy between President Li Yuanhong and Prime Minister Duan Qirui has become fierce. From 1916 to 1928, the political chaos lasted for 12 years. Various farces were staged in turn, from Zhang Xun's restoration to Cao Kun's election bribery, and the 38th cabinet collapsed. Based on a large number of historical documents and long-term research, the author is very knowledgeable about many complex historical issues. The plot is confusing, suspenseful and fascinating, making this book both profoundly thoughtful and highly readable.
