In the fifth year of the Republic of China (19 16), on June 7, the day after Yuan Shikai's death, Li was appointed as the President of the Republic of China in Dongchang Hutong Mansion.

After Li became president, all parties demanded to restore the presidential election law enacted by the Constitution Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) (the first year of the Republic of China) and the National Assembly Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) (the second year of the Republic of China), convene a national assembly, quickly finalize the constitution, organize a responsible cabinet, and abolish the Yuan forgery system after November 4 of the second year of the Republic of China (19 13).

All measures must be taken in accordance with the temporary contract law to solve the troubles of the current situation, comfort the people's desire for governance, and consolidate the foundation of the Republic of China.

Li's succession to the presidency is inseparable from Duan's support. Duan's support for Li's appointment was also forced by the political situation at that time. In order to maintain this interdependent relationship, Li appointed Duan as prime minister and organized a responsible cabinet.

In the 6th year of the Republic of China (1917) in May, Zhang Xun invited the overseers to a meeting in Xuzhou, which coincided with Duan's dismissal. The governors of the participating provinces were furious and lambasted Li and Congress. Zhang Xun took the opportunity to restore the clean room in the name of driving Li away.

In the sixth year of the Republic of China (19 17), Zhang Xun led 5,000 braid troops to the north, and in July of 1 year, Zhang Xun entered Beijing and became the Emperor of Puyi.

Due to the threat of Zhang Xun forces, Li had to flee to the Japanese legation. At this time, Guangdong Governor Zhu Qingrun, Guangxi Provincial Assembly, Jiangsu Governor Chun Li, etc. Once sent a telegram asking Li not to consider withdrawing troops, but to cut off Zhang Xun by force. On July 3, Duan swore an oath of crusade in the name of the commander-in-chief of the rebel army. Zhang Xun is the only one, and no one else is to blame.

Within ten days, Zhang Xun and other restoration forces were suppressed by Duan. The restoration enabled Duan to return to Beijing as a hero of "rebuilding the Republic", and Li Yin's successful rebellion made him free.

Extended data

Li Yisheng participated in many important historical events, such as opposing Yuan Shikai's claim to the throne and rejecting Feng Wang, which won him high prestige.

Later, the national defense forces supported him, and the guardian army defended him. He also echoed the movement of protecting the country and protecting the law, which played a positive role in the collapse of Yuan Shikai and the division of the northern warlords. His greatest historical contribution was to participate in the Wuchang Uprising. In 19 1 1, he overthrew the imperial system for more than two thousand years and went to the Republic with many people with lofty ideals.

In Wuchang Uprising, his intervention and existence, as a historic symbol, officially sounded the death knell of the Manchu government and the Millennium monarchy. This historical contribution can not be erased at all, nor can it be erased.

Li is a figure full of contradictions and controversies. He lived through the period of Beiyang Navy, Hubei New Army, Shouyi Governor, three vice presidents and two presidents of the Republic of China. During this period, his contribution was greater than his, and there were some merits and demerits, and some were to blame.
