北洋,本是晚清军政词汇,源自袁世凯在天津新农镇训练新军。袁世凯亡了清朝帝制,出任民国总统,他的北洋旧将和平过渡为民国要员,在中央机关工作的,是威将军,声名显赫;驻扎外省的,是武将军,兵权在握。 Beiyang, this is a late Qing military and political vocabulary, derived from Yuan Shikai training new army in Tianjin’s new agricultural town. Yuan Shikai died of the imperialism of the Qing Dynasty and served as the president of the Republic of China. His old Beiyang people made a peaceful transition to a key member of the Republic of China. While working in the central government, Yuan Shikai was a reputable general; his troops stationed in other provinces were armed generals and held their military power.
