The well-known hostility of the Chihli and Loyang Chiefs to Doctor Sun occasioned by the latter's alliance with Wu Pei-fu's arch enemy Chang Tso-lin in the civil war of last Spring, Ta'ao and Wu having been working with the Cheng Hsueh Hui faction in the South for a military unification which would exclude Sun Yat-sen. (The connection between the Cheng Hsueh Hui and Kuangsi military factions in the South on the one hand and the Chihli military party in the North on the other hand was explained in paragraphs three and four of Mr. Clive's despatch No. 89 of the 3rd ultimo).

The President and the Premier (so far as the latter had any will of his own) however, have throughout been working for a more genuine unification scheme which would embrace Sun Yat-sen and the Kuo Min Tang, and have been in intermittent negotiation with Doctor Sun at various times during the past year for that purpose. The Cabinet, therefore, refused at first to yield to the demands of Wu and Ta'ao, which included not only the appointment of General Shen to the governorship of Kuangtung but also that of General Sun Ch'uan-fang to be Tuli of Fukien, in opposition to the Kuo Min Tang forces who, under Hsu Chung-chih, had possessed themselves of the latter province last autumn. Sun Ch'uan-fang was formerly in command of the Northern force stationed at Nanchang and had been transferred thence with his troops into Kiangsi as leader of the Northern expeditionary "relief force" sent by Wu P'ei-fu to expel Hsu Chung-chih and his Kuo Min Tang forces from Fukien (see paragraph thirteen of Mr. Clive's despatch No. 89 of February 3rd). These demands of Wu and Ta'ao if yielded to implied the granting of the Cabinet's authority to Wu P'ei-fu's nominees, Shen Hung-ying and Sun Ch'uan-fang, to expel Sun Yat-sen and the Kuo Min Tang from Kuangtung and Fukien by force of arms, and the issue became therefore one of the first importance.
