Pu Yi has abdicated, why does Yuan Shikai still give him 4 million oceans every year?

Because this was the condition that Pu Yi negotiated when he abdicated at that time, Yuan Shikai was also very trustworthy and a feudal person, and gave him 4 million oceans every year.

Because Yuan Shikai is a usurper of power, in order to be able to stop the mouths of the people in the world, he will give Pu Yi 4 million oceans every year.

This is because when Yuan Shikai and the Empress Dowager Longyu discussed the abdication edict of the Qing Emperor, he signed an agreement on how to ensure the life of the imperial family after the emperor's abdication.

Finally, there is the 36 Town Army, this army was once the elite army of the imperial court, but later due to some victories, it was unloaded and killed, and before Pu Yi abdicated, 5 of the troops were in the hands of Yuan Shikai, and Yuan Shikai was even more unscrupulous. So if you look at the number of people alone, then the army in Pu Yi's hands is indeed several times that of Yuan Shikai's army, but if it is analyzed from the level of combat effectiveness, then Yuan Shikai's army is indeed going to throw off Pu Yi's army for several streets, of course, Pu Yi's abdication is not only due to this reason, but also for some other historical reasons.

Because Pu Yi's million-strong army is mostly soldiers of the Eight Banners, he rarely goes to the battlefield, lacks training, and his combat effectiveness is very low, so it is not as good as Yuan Shikai's 200,000 well-trained new army.

Because in the late Qing Dynasty, Pu Yi's army was simply in name only, the treasury was empty, there was no money to pay military salaries, and even the Praetorian Guards defending the capital were too busy to take care of themselves, and they could not be mobilized at all, and Yuan Shikai's 200,000 elite soldiers, all equipped with foreign guns and cannons, were not at all what Pu Yi's army could compete.

Yuan Shikai was able to force Pu Yi to abdicate because Pu Yi's army had no intention of fighting. Yuan Shikai's 200,000 people were vigorous, and Pu Yi's million-strong army was disheartened and had no intention of fighting.

Because Pu Yi's million-strong army is too weak in combat effectiveness, it is not as good as professionally trained soldiers like Yuan Shikai.

These 4 million oceans should be worth about 100 million in today's conversion.

Four million oceans are equivalent to 4 billion today, because one ocean is equivalent to 1,000 yuan now.

If we calculate 4 million oceans according to inflation, we have 100 million now, whether it is now or at the end of the Qing Dynasty, 4 million is a huge amount of money.

Slave mentality, the Qing Dynasty is dead, why give him money?

Although there were still one million troops at the time of Pu Yi's abdication, most of the troops were in other provinces and were not by Pu Yi's side, so Pu Yi was forced into the palace by Yuan Shikai's 200,000 new army!

Because the combat effectiveness and equipment of these armies controlled by Yuan Shikai at that time were not comparable to any Qing army, and their combat ability was very strong.

Because no one supported him at the time, and his 1 million troops actually did not support him.

Pu Yi did have a million troops at the time of his abdication, but the power of these armies was in the hands of local warlords, and Pu Yi was only the nominal leader, and had no real power to mobilize them. So Pu Yi had no way to compete with Yuan Shikai at all.

Yuan Shikai allocated 4 million silver dollars to Pu Yi every year, which is equivalent to tens of millions of yuan now. Of course, he can spend it all, Pu Yi has grown up in the palace since he was a child, and he eats and wears the best every day, and it takes a very large amount of money to maintain these basic livelihoods. What's more, there are ** around you that need to be dotted.

At that time, one silver dollar could buy 500 buns, and a family spent about 60 silver dollars a year, and 4 million silver dollars was equivalent to 400 million today.

Yuan Shikai promised to pay 4 million taels of silver dollars to the Qing room every year, and after the issuance of the new currency, it was changed to 4 million yuan, and the cost was not worried. During that time, a lot of money was spent on dressing up, and he and his wife and concubines were the same.

After Pu Yi abdicated, Yuan Shikai gave the royal family 4 million oceans every year, which is equivalent to how much money is now.
