Introduction: Yuan Shikai as the leader of the Beiyang warlords, his personal ability is still very strong, Zhang Zuolin is more afraid of Yuan Shikai, in 1913, he became the first president of the Republic of China, but after all, Yuan Shikai was in the late Qing Dynasty is the power of the government and the opposition, and he has a descendant of the Beiyang New Army, he still wants to be the emperor in his bones, at the end of 1913, Yuan Shikai held a ceremony to worship the sky at the Temple of Heaven, the purpose is to gain the support and respect of the people, and prepare for him to be the emperor.
Yuan Shikai can become the first president of the Republic of China, and his political skills are still relatively clever, but he lacks the leadership thinking of serving the country and the people, and he is at most a big warlord.
In order to worship the heavens, Yuan Shikai and the officials of various ministries fasted for three days.
Yuan Shikai and the officials prepared costumes and offerings to worship the heavens.
There were also a large number of officials who attended the event.
The ceremonial procession is also ready.
Looking at the ceremonial procession, Yuan Shikai's ambition to become the emperor was clearly revealed.
Prepare various offerings to the heavens.
When Yuan Shikai sacrificed to the sky, he wore a black twelve-chapter gown to worship the sky, which was worn by the emperor to worship the genius, and he felt that Yuan Shikai had coveted the throne for a long time, but at this time, the warlords in various places were no longer controlled by the central government, and it was perverse to do so.
There are also some supporters of this sacrifice, and many of the widows of the Qing Dynasty still want to restore the imperial system, and it doesn't matter who is the emperor. Those who are old and young want their glory and wealth to be preserved.
Looking at this battle, the cost of this sacrifice is also astronomical, don't look at the people at that time, the people were not living well, and the warlords spent money like running water.
Yuan Shikai's sons all changed into princely clothes.
Yuan Shikai is not in good health and has uremia, and he wants to be an emperor mainly for the sake of future generations. But most of his sons are not competitive, and they do not have strong military and political ability.
Yuan Shikai announced in December 1915 that he would proclaim himself emperor, change the name of the country to the Chinese Empire, and establish the Yuan Hongxian, known as the "Hongxian Empire" in history. However, this emperor's dream lasted for 83 days, and it was canceled in the case of internal and external troubles. On June 6, 1916, Yuan Shikai died of uremia.
This is a photo of Yuan Shikai's military uniform, not tall, but it still looks very majestic.
Summary: Yuan Shikai has an emperor dream, but during the Republic of China, the people have a deep sense of the feudal social system, the arrogance and lasciviousness of the Qing Dynasty, corruption and corruption are also hated, and the warlords around the country also have an opposition to the imperial system, so Yuan Shikai is wrong in not having a correct understanding of the current situation, and the emperor's dream is inevitable, although Yuan Shikai has a bad reputation, but now the "Yuan Datou" has been handed down, it is really a good thing, and now "Yuan Datou" still has a collection value, ranging from a few hundred yuan to thousands of yuan.
