The royal family and nobles of the Qing Dynasty were not wine bags and rice bags, why could they be

Pu Yi was the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, he ascended the throne as an emperor at the age of three, but he was too young to really taste the taste of being an emperor before he was forced to abdicate by Yuan Shikai and became the king of the dead country. In fact, the nobles of the Qing Dynasty at that time were not all wine bags and rice bags, and the emperor also had a Praetorian Guard composed entirely of Manchurians, so why could Yuan Shikai easily let Pu Yi abdicate? The reason for this is that Yuan Shikai controlled the Praetorian Guard composed of Manchus by means, so that the Manchu nobles could only watch Yuan Shikai seize power.

The late Qing regime was in turmoil, and the regent Zaifeng felt that they still had to have an army composed of Manchus to protect the emperor's relatives. So he recruited the Manchurians and formed the Praetorian Guard. This army is different from the previous Eight Banners Army, they use completely Western**, and they also use Western-style training, and their combat effectiveness is very strong.

This army was commanded by Zaitao and protected the royal security.

Yuan Shikai planned to seize the rule of the Praetorian Guard. Yuan Shikai was also very frightened when he saw this Manchu Praetorian Guard, so he thought of a way and wrote to the Empress Dowager Longyu, praising the Manchu Praetorian Guard, saying that this Praetorian Guard was a model for all armies, and asked that this Praetorian Guard be put into the battlefield and set an example for the whole army. Zaitao panicked when he heard that Yuan Shikai had let them go to the battlefield, and immediately found Yuan Shikai and said that he had no actual combat experience, hoping that Yuan Shikai could recommend a general with rich combat experience to command the Praetorian Guard.

Yuan Shikai pushed the boat down the river and arranged his friend Xu Shichang in the position of commander of the Praetorian Guard, and then Yuan Shikai gained control of the Manchu Praetorian Guard. In addition, he also installed cronies in the Praetorian Guard, and gradually, the Praetorian Guard completely became Yuan Shikai's army.

When Yuan Shikai forced the palace to Pu Yi and the Empress Dowager Longyu and other orphans and widows, the royal family did not have the protection of the Praetorian Guard, and no one in the Qing Dynasty nobles dared to stand up and speak, Yuan Shikai successfully forced the palace very smoothly, and Pu Yi had no choice but to abdicate.

First, the development of the past and the present is bound to enter another stage after one stage, and the development of the feudal system can no longer meet the ever-changing world, so the rule of the Qing Dynasty has been unable to keep up with the pace of the times, to the point of elimination; Second, Yuan Shikai won the hearts of a certain number of people and contributed to his usurpation of power.

The Qing Dynasty aristocracy was very corrupt and degenerate at that time, even if it was not a wine bag and rice bag, as for the problem of Yuan Shikai's usurpation, it was because he had great power and troops in his hands, Yuan Shikai often thought about the emperor's dream, and he was a persistent pursuit of the emperor.

He arranged his old friend Xu Shichang in the position of commander of the Praetorian Guard, and since then the Qing Dynasty has been completely controlled by Yuan Shikai, and later Yuan Shikai took the opportunity to install cronies in the Praetorian Guard, and the Praetorian Guard eventually became Yuan Shikai's army, and for the sake of insurance, Yuan Shikai transferred all of them out of Beijing. Later, when Yuan Shikai forced the palace, the Manchu nobles were afraid of Yuan Shikai's power, and they were silent, resulting in their lack of the slightest ability to resist, and the Qing Dynasty also came to an end in a howl.

In order to force the Empress Dowager Longyu to abdicate, Yuan Shikai used coercion and inducement, exaggerating the strength of the revolutionary army and promising generous conditions to the Empress Dowager Longyu, so that the Empress Dowager Longyu took the initiative to withdraw from the stage of history.

He intimidated the Queen Mother by force. gave the Queen Mother a setback, according to him, his army could no longer withstand the Kuomintang, and there was coercion and inducement to put forward generous conditions, so the Queen Mother willingly chose to abdicate.

Yuan Shikai threatened the Empress Dowager Longyu, if the Empress Dowager Longyu did not abdicate, then Yuan Shikai would bombard the city of Beijing, and the Empress Dowager Longyu was afraid and abdicated.

In Yuan Shikai's eyes, Pu Yi is a little doll, and the Empress Dowager Longyu is just a woman, Yuan Shikai has soldiers in his hands, and he is not afraid of any force, so it is reasonable to force the emperor to abdicate in this case, and it is reasonable to be the emperor himself.

Yuan Shikai arrested some of the relatives of the Queen Mother and threatened him before he voluntarily abdicated, Yuan Shikai is a particularly despicable person.

The Qing Dynasty was already a rotten mess, Yuan Shikai gave money to support it, and the Empress Dowager Longyu was of course willing to abdicate.
