Breaking through Guandong, I became Zhu Chuanwen

From Bingcheng to Jinmen, the train was unimpeded along the way.

Mao Guangting had a sticky beard and glasses, and he was dressed in disguise. If you don't look closely, you can't really recognize this outfit.

For Mao Guangting's meeting with Yuan Shikai this time, Zhu Chuanwen also made a plan, just in time for the Hanyao Annual Meeting, meeting Wang Keren and Mao Guangting in Jinmen will be the last preparation for meeting Yuan.

On this trip, Mao Guangting brought a total of four people, two of whom were in charge of safety.

After getting off the train station, Mao Guangting didn't see the hunters at Jinmen Station coming to connect. He took out his pocket watch to check the time, and said to the left and right: "Let's take a rickshaw and go directly to the Wangjiashan store in Jinmen."

"Yes, the shopkeeper!"

A group of five people took three rickshaws and walked towards the Wangjiashan goods store in Jinmen.

However, not long after walking, Mao Guangting noticed something was wrong: "Rickshaw, you are going in the wrong direction. I am going to the Wangjiashan goods store in the Jinmen Concession." Watching the rickshaw pull himself and the two cars behind him towards Walking in the opposite direction, he couldn't help shouting, and slowly reached into his purse, grabbing the pistol in the bag.

Under the influence of Zhu Chuanwen, all the directors of Hanyao have basic military qualities. After all, they have to consume 30 rounds of bullets every week. This is a rule set by Zhu Chuanwen, and it is a rule for all the directors of Hanyao. There are more personnel engaged in security work, and the specifications of firearms are also different.

Hunter Jinmen Station, this is a major station for hunters outside the customs. Jinmen Station, Shanghai Station, Wuhan Station, and Guangzhou Station are the four first-class stations for hunters in the customs. Judging from the degree of protection along the way, his trip was all about opening the door for convenience. How come he was stopped by a rickshaw when he arrived in Jinmen?Are the hunters in Shanhaiguan so poor?He was thinking about this year's proposal, whether Hanyao Trading Co., Ltd. will support the hunter department a little more, it's embarrassing for Tai Te Niang.

The rickshaw driver didn't seem to hear or speak to him, but when he heard the question, he quickly ran into a remote alley.

"Rickshaw, stop, this is your last chance!" Mao Guangting decisively drew out his gun.

"Click!" The sound of the bullet being loaded can be heard clearly, even if the rickshaw driver's chest rises and falls, he can still hear this premonition of black and white impermanence.

"Squeak!" The rickshaw stopped with a brake, and three consecutive rickshaws stopped in the alley.Before the car came to a complete stop, the people on the two rickshaws behind Mao Guangting were like hungry tigers rushing towards Mao Guangting while holding guns.

Seeing the people gathering around him, Mao Guangting was relieved. He had heard that Zhu Chuanwen had also seen a rickshaw driver robbing him in Jinmen. He didn't expect to meet him when he got off the train!

"Come on, who is it?" Mao Guangting scolded sharply, but saw the rickshaw driver in front of him raise his hands. This standard movement of the insurance team to make the horse bandits surrender made Mao Guangting faintly guess, and the rickshaw driver slowly turned around. , showing an ugly smile: "Director Guangting, don't get excited, the captain asked me to take you to see him."

"Why are you dressed like this? What about the exchange of defenses at the gate of the train station?" Mao Guangting was a little unhappy. After getting off the train, the guard work of the Kanto hunters was handed over to the Jinmen station of the hunter department.

"Director Guangting, the captain will explain this to you in person. The train station is really crowded with people. We have been silent recently." The rickshaw driver explained.

Silence, something happened to the Wangjiashan goods store. This was the thought in Mao Guangting's mind at this time. He suppressed the doubts in his heart, knowing that he knew everything when he saw Wang Keren at this time. At the same time, I saw Wang Keren dressed as a laborer.

"Treasurer Wang, what are you?"

"Director Guang Ting, I'm kidding. My subordinates told me that I scared you. Forgive me! Forgive me!" Wang Keren arched his hands, but he seemed to be apologetic.

"Treasurer Wang is serious, but where is your Jinmen station?"

"Hey, my mother, I was fine when I arrived in Jinmen, but something happened yesterday. The Jinmen Yamen closed my shop in Wangjiashan. This matter is really difficult!" Wang Keren scratched his head, Although the face is sad, it still looks like it is under control.

"What happened?"

"Damn it, those people in the south are addicted to assassination, and they moved Yuan Shikai. You know, the ordnance of Hanyao Trading Company is sold in the name of our Shanhuo shop. Li Xie and Dai Chen Qimei took the firearms from me when the team took down Jinling, and Yuan Shikai probably knew about it and targeted our Shanhuo shop."

Yuan Shikai was assassinated?The news was like thunder, resounding in Mao Guangting's mind. On January 1912, 1, Yuan Shikai, who had just come out of the Donghuamen, was assassinated.

This assassination was strictly organized, and Yuan Shikai's rules of action had long been figured out.The assassins were divided into four groups, two groups dropped bombs, one group sniped, and one group responded. At around 16:11 a.m. on the 45th, Yuan Shikai's convoy came out of Donghuamen and passed the corner of Donghuamen Street and Wangfujing Street. carriage.

Then the second group threw two more bombs, a total of three bombs, two of which exploded, and one was a dud, but this dud landed under Yuan Shikai's carriage. ,Ran……

Next, it was Yuan Shikai's revenge. The Wangjiashan store was caught on fire this time, and it was affected.

Speaking of which, this has nothing to do with the progressives in the south. It was done by the remaining progressives in the north after the Luanzhou Uprising and the Suiyuan War. party.In fact, the news of Wang Keren selling firearms had already reached Yuan Shikai's ears. After the assassination, Jinmen, the place where Yuan Shikai had been operating for many years, moved towards the Wangjiashan store.

The shop was sealed off and people were besieged inside, but Wang Keren escaped calmly and was trying to find ways to alleviate it...

Listening to Wang Keren's narration, Mao Guangting said to himself that Yuan Shikai's fate was really serious, and then hurriedly asked: "Treasurer Wang, what are you going to do next? I'm going to the capital to meet Yuan Shikai this time. Is Han Yao involved?"

"Director Guangting, don't worry, it's still within the controllable range. It's nothing more than sending some money. I've found a way. I'm so careful just in case." Wang Keren said. With the support of Han Yao and Hunter, he became the number one person. Wangjiashan goods store's mountain goods were spread throughout the Qing court, and he became a well-known businessman anyway, but the name is not very good.

"Boss, the electricity is generated from Bingcheng. The timing of meeting Yuan Shikai this time remains the same. But if Yuan Shikai asks about the sale of Hanyao's firearms, you promise in person that you will not sell them to the Wangjiashan store in the future." Wang Keren said, It's also a good thing that the two families separated long ago, otherwise it would be really difficult this time.

"Okay, I got it." Mao Guangting nodded, deeply feeling that this task has become more difficult.

"However, Director Guangting and the Prime Minister have said that there are still risks in going to Beijing this time. Be careful in everything. I have ordered the hidden piles in the capital to protect your safety at all costs. So if something really happens, you have to make a fool of yourself first. Hidden piles will act quickly." Wang Keren gave Mao Guangting another reassurance.

"Okay, then shopkeeper Wang, I'll take the train tonight and go to the capital first." Mao Guangting looked at Wang Keren's appearance at this time, and he also assumed his own responsibility. The pressure will really be less.

Wang Keren also saw what Mao Guangting was thinking, and felt grateful for it. The Zhu family's power is like this, helping each other, which makes people feel emotional.

"Thank you, Director Guangting!"

……

Beijing, Yuan Mansion

Xu Shichang brought Mao Guangting to this place, the core of the capital at this time.

"Guang Ting, you wait outside the door first, and I will have someone call you." Xu Shichang said, and walked towards Yuan Shikai's main hall.

As soon as he entered the yard, he looked at Yuan Shikai who was dressed in white, as if he had just come out of his bedroom, and greeted him: "Brother, why did you come here in such a hurry?"

"I'll come and see you. This time you were attacked, you were shocked!" Xu Shichang grabbed Yuan Shikai's hand, and the two old foxes chatted like this.

"Let's go, brother, let's talk in the main hall." Yuan Shikai said.

"Did the assassin catch it?" Xu Shichang asked.

"I got it! I caught ten of them, and three of them had bombs on them. I have already executed them!" Yuan Shikai's eyes flashed, but he said immediately, "The other seven were released because of insufficient evidence!"

Although Yuan Shikai said that he has been hiding from people recently, but in fact it is more of a show. Who is he, and he has experienced countless dangers in his life. He is still alive, which is the proof, and can he be scared?But if you count them in detail, he has experienced the most dangerous things probably three times in his life, but just in response to the saying that misfortune is a blessing, and blessings are a disaster, each time there is a transformation of fate.

In 1884, the Jiashen coup in North Korea, as the spokesperson of the Qing government in North Korea, Yuan Shikai escaped to the Qing court, but since then he has emerged and is well known.

When Cixi died in 1909, Zaifeng wanted to kill Yuan Shikai because Yuan Shikai had betrayed his half-brother Guangxu.Although Xu Shichang and a group of Yuan Shikai's relatives were guarantors at the beginning, Yuan still escaped from death and retired to Henan.

And this time in 1912, there was a one-in-ten-thousand chance of encountering a dud, which was the most dangerous.

Xu Shichang still doesn't understand what it means, assassination is assassination, but his old partner who crawled out of a sea of ​​corpses still has a city, and he didn't kill them all. This is to tell those progressives: Lao Tzu's patience is limited.At the same time, it is also saying: I am kind to you.
"Let it go!" Xu Shichang pouted, and said first, "Weiting, that's fine, at least this time, the relationship between you and the progressives is completely cleared up in the court."

At this time, inside the Qing court, there were still rumors that Yuan Shikai was colluding with progressives. After all, according to the combat effectiveness of the Beiyang army, the rebellion should be wiped out like a smashing one, but it was fighting more and more.

But this is not something that Yuan Shikai can control. How to put it, the Qing court is already rotten to the bone, and the gentry are not standing with the government to help at this time, which means that they have lost the most basic rule.

"Yes!" Yuan Shikai nodded approvingly. It's really not a bad thing. He has more confidence in facing Longyu and Zaifeng.

"I heard that you came from the Queen Mother Longyu that day?" Xu Shichang came to see Yuan Shikai today, but he also had some plans of his own.

The day Yuan Shikai was assassinated was the day Longyu summoned him, but it was the prelude to forcing the palace.

Regarding Xu Shichang's inquiry, Yuan Shikai did not hide his personal interests, because this matter was also discussed by the two of them. Since he rejected the Qing court's eastward move, Xu Shichang officially helped Yuan Shikai.

That day, when Yuan Shikai entered Longyu's West Palace, he burst into tears.

The general picture is like this: Longyu is sitting on the kang by the south window, wiping his tears with a handkerchief, while a fat old man is kneeling on the red felt cushion on the ground, his face covered with tears.Although the emperor and his ministers cried to each other, it was the ministers who came to force the emperor.

Of course, Yuan Shikai would not talk about this matter, but said complacently: "Brother, the first battle has been won! Next, we should continue to exert pressure! But, brother, in my opinion, although the south has occupied Jinling City , a provisional government was established, and it seems that more than a dozen provinces are in control. However, there are not a few of them who support us!"

The progressives at this time had everything, and the most famous of them was the constitutional faction headed by Kang Liang. This faction was really influential. They were mixed in the south, and they had great expectations for Yuan Shikai.

"I know, so it's better for us to resolve it peacefully!" Xu Shichang nodded and said, "They are like us. When there are too many people, they will fight. I heard that one of them named Tao Chengzhang was killed. Isn't it just like us?" What's the status quo between you and Liangbi?"

Yuan Shikai and Liangbi are enemies at this time, Aixinjueluo Liangbi is clamoring to depose Yuan Shikai at this time, and fight to the death with the South.

"Liang Bifu, sooner or later I will let him return. Although there are many factions in the south, there are so many of them. 10,000+ troops are starting to gather towards Jinling City. Trouble is tight!"

"So, I think peace talks are the right way." Xu Shichang said.

"Brother, peace talks are peace talks, but how to deal with constitutional monarchy and republic?" Yuan Shikai looked at Xu Shichang with burning eyes.

Xu Shichang was at a loss for words for a while, he laughed, refused to express his opinion, and talked about a person instead. "Weiting, I brought a person with me, do you want to meet?"

"Oh? Eldest brother personally recommended it, so we naturally want to meet." Yuan Shikai also gave the steps, but did not force him.

"Go, bring in Mao Guangting at the door." Xu Shichang said to Yuan Shikai's servant in the main hall.

After a while, Mao Guangting, dressed in a western-style suit, walked in respectfully, and bowed carefully: "Your Majesty Mao Guangting, the current manager of Hanyao Commercial Bank, Ankang, Prime Minister!"

People from Hanyao?Only then did Yuan Shikai look at Xu Shichang. He brought Han Yao's people to his residence at this time. What does this mean?
