The Republic is so violent

Chapter 54 It's Wrong to Listen to the Leader (3)
The reason for the quarrel was that Jiang Yiwu received a letter from Huang Xing, which said: The revolution does not happen overnight, it must be done step by step, step by step, and after all the revolutionary parties in all provinces of the country have discussed it properly, everyone will do it together, Wuchang Do not engage in liberalism without waiting for everyone to do it first.Huang Xing requested that the new army uprising in Hubei should be postponed for two months, so there should be no rush.

After reading this letter, Jiang Yiwu felt a little troubled, so he asked Liu Fuji to discuss it, and Liu Fuji became anxious when he heard it, and he explained: Armed uprising is not about steaming steamed buns and hot buns, it is up to you to play around.Armed uprisings are carried out by a large group of people. Once everyone's emotions are raised, even if you don't want to do it, you can't do it.And when everyone is depressed, even if you want to do it, you can't do it. So, the current situation is that the Eighth Town's new army uprising is already imminent, and it has to be launched. There is no need to listen to Huang Xing's words.

But if you don't listen to Huang Xing's words, once you start an uprising, if you don't get a response from the provinces, the uprising will lack stamina, money, food, and ammunition, and it will be difficult to continue.Jiang Yiwu was hesitant, so he decided to call all the representatives of the Revolutionary Party in the standard battalions of the New Army to work together and discuss together.

After the representatives arrived, they heard that the incident would be postponed for two months, and they were all blown up.The news of Gein's uprising has already been leaked, and if it is postponed for another two months, it may be a long night and dreams.I'm afraid that after two months, everyone has been arrested by the Qing court and beheaded. Everyone is dead, and there is no righteousness.

Everyone is right, but Huang Xing's order must be obeyed, right?Jiang Yiwu was in a dilemma, at this time Liu Fuji scolded: "Little Jiang, are you so timid and afraid of death that you dare not give orders?"
Furious, Jiang Yiwu took out his pistol, slapped it on the table, and shouted loudly: "Which son of a bitch said that I am afraid of death?"Who established the Qunzhi Society?It's me!Who established the Zhenwu Academy?It's me!Who established the literary society?It's still me!Let me tell you, if one of these secret agencies is detected by the Qing court, I will lose my head long ago!I am not even afraid of losing my head, how can I be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?

Liu Fuji laughed and said, "Since you are not afraid of death, then you can order an incident."

Jiang Yiwu: Orders... It is a matter of great importance to give orders, and it needs to be discussed in the long run. Why don't you all go back to the camp for dinner first, and let me think about it?

The representatives were frustrated and all went back to the camp for dinner.Everyone had just left when Xing Boqian from the Gongjinhui came running from Hankou to tell everyone the news of the accident in the secret agency in Hankou.

When Jiang Yiwu heard this, he was stunned at first, and then burst into tears.

Seeing this situation, Liu Fuji yelled angrily: It's your mother's time, what's the point of crying?How about doing it tonight.

Jiang Yiwu howled and cried, still hesitating.At this time, Deng Yulin from the Gongjinhui also came, and said to Jiang Yiwu: Lao Jiang, our Gongjinhui is finished. We have been taken over by others, and we can only count on your literature club.Now that you are the commander-in-chief of the uprising, the life and death of the soldiers of the Communist Party is in your hands. Please give orders quickly, otherwise everyone will be ruined.

At this point, Jiang Yiwu had no choice, and immediately issued an order:
Now I order that all bidders and battalions get ready. Brothers in the New Army of the Eighth Town of Hubei are scheduled to start the attack at noon tonight.

After the order was issued, everyone suddenly remembered one thing: Governor Rui Chan had already observed the movement of the new army's uprising, so he confiscated all the bullets of the new army brothers in advance.At present, all the brothers have empty guns and no bullets. I'm afraid they won't be able to do it tonight.

Fortunately, the revolutionaries also hid some bullets in advance, so they ordered Peng Chufan and Yang Hongsheng to send bullets to each battalion and each standard.

After the order was issued, everyone split up and acted separately. Not long after, party members Peng Chufan, Xing Boqian, Jiang Yiwu, Chen Honggao, and Wang Xianzhang all returned to the headquarters. It was already 9 o'clock at night, and there were only three hours left before the incident. Jiang Yiwu said to everyone: Everything is arranged, only listen to the sound of the guns.Everyone nodded, Liu Fuji turned on the gramophone, and everyone listened to the music while waiting for the gunfire.

While enjoying the music, suddenly a party member broke into the door with a disfigured expression, and said loudly: "It's a bad thing. Yang Hongsheng made trouble. He sent the bomb to the camp. He met the flag soldiers and was interrogated. The bomb slipped down and exploded." Open, the flag soldiers are chasing and killing, Yang Hongsheng fled while throwing bombs, I am afraid he will not escape.I also saw behind the engineering battalion a row of flag soldiers running towards the [-]th Association.

Everyone was stunned. After a long while, they heard Peng Chufan chuckle and said: What are you afraid of?It's almost 11 o'clock, and it's about to start, it doesn't matter.Yiwu, take out the offensive and defensive map and take a good look at it. Don't wait a while to command the battle, and you can't figure out the north, south, east, and west.

Then Peng Chufan said to the party member Mou Jianxun: "Old Mou, take out your pen and paper and write down all our names. Even if we die in battle tonight, we must leave a name in the world, right?"
After instructing Mou Jianxun, Peng Chufan took out a pack of foreign currency from his pocket and put it on the table: I still have dozens of yuan with me, and everyone will share a share. When the fight starts, I'm afraid no one will pay us any more military pay. Alright, let's use this money to buy snacks to satisfy our hunger.

Everyone was reaching for money, when they heard hurried and chaotic voices at the door, Jiang Yiwu shouted and asked: Who is it?

There was a sneer outside the door, and a sullen voice said: "It's your master who is here!"

Jiang Yiwu's face suddenly changed: it's the detective who came!
(10) Command system destroyed
When the detective came, Jiang Yiwu sighed to everyone: "The matter has come to this point, and panic will not solve the problem. Come with me, grab the bomb, and go out."

Liu Fuji was the bravest. He immediately picked up two bombs and said: I will lead the battle, you follow me.

Everyone was lying on the window, seeing Liu Fuji rushing downstairs and throwing a bomb at the flag soldier who came to round up: a magic weapon, the unlucky flag soldier screamed, but the bomb did not explode.

It doesn't matter that the first one didn't blow up, Liu Fuji still had another one in his hand, and he threw it out in a hurry, but it was also silent. At this time, the flag soldiers swarmed up, pushed Liu Fuji down, and tied him up tightly.

At this point, everyone upstairs woke up like a dream. It turned out that after Sun Tzu suffered a bomb accident at the Gongjinhui, the Literary Club was afraid that something would happen here, so they pulled out the bolts on the bomb in advance. Put the bomb's latch back on.The bomb had no bolt, so of course it wouldn't explode.

Put the bolt back on again?
But why is there such a hurry at this time?The flag soldiers had already broken into the door, and everyone panicked and jumped out of the window one after another.

As soon as they landed, everyone was held down by the military police. The party member Chen Honggao turned his head and saw that the person holding him was an acquaintance, and said in surprise: "Hey, don't you hurry up and arrest the rebellious party. Why are you holding me down?"
Seeing that it was Chen Honggao, the gendarme knew that he was a member of the party, but because of his acquaintance, he said in a low voice: "Don't say anything, you just follow us and shout, pretending that you are also here to arrest the party."

Chen Honggao escaped just like that. Over there, Peng Chufan, who was wearing a gendarmerie uniform, also yelled loudly, insisting that the wrong person had been arrested, and the gendarmerie really let him go.If Peng Chufan was like Chen Honggao, he fled among the gendarmes without making a sound, but when he got out of the gendarmes, he was caught by the bannermen outside. Although he repeatedly explained that he was a gendarme, the bannermen asked him, Since you are here to arrest the rebels, why run behind?If you have anything to say, go talk to the governor.

Jiang Yiwu, Peng Chufan, Mou Jianxun and others were all arrested.

But Jiang Yiwu looked rustic and wore a peasant uniform, so he kept yelling on the road: I am a countryman watching the fun, why are you arresting me?Ah, it’s natural to arrest people even when they’re watching the crowds. When they yelled at the patrol police station, Jiang Yiwu lowered his head when he was on the phone with the military police, turned around and walked out quietly. The military police ignored him when they saw him, and Jiang Yiwu just Ran away.

At three or four o'clock in the morning, Peng Chufan and others were escorted to the governor's office.

Governor Ruizhang sent his confidant Tie Zhong, Hanyang prefect Shuangshou, and Wuchang prefect Chen Shuping to interrogate him.Seeing Peng Chufan in military police uniform brought up, Tie Zhong took a deep breath.

If Mrs. Yipin Zhao Fengchang is the backbone that Zhang Zhidong relies on, then Tie Zhong also plays such a role in Governor Ruitang.And the characteristic in the officialdom is that cronies themselves are often more capable than leaders—it is impossible to become cronies if they are not strong.Therefore, Tie Zhong saw that Peng Chufan was a gendarme, and he also knew that the party members were officers and soldiers in the new army. Here to settle the matter for the governor, it is best to calm down.So Tie Zhong showed a look of surprise on his face, and said loudly: Peng Chufan, weren't you ordered to arrest the military police of the rebellious party?Why did you get caught here instead?How do the people below do things? It's really nonsense.

What Tie Zhong meant was to ask Peng Chufan to follow him, and then use the slope to get off the donkey to release all the captured party members, so as to prevent everyone in the barracks from being in danger and afraid of being involved, and something really happens.

But never thought, Peng Chufan laughed and said loudly: My name is Peng Chufan, you can see clearly, I am a revolutionary party, I want revolution, I want to save China, I want to overthrow the traitorous government of the Aixinjueluo family, what can you do with me? ?
Tie Zhong was dumbfounded, knowing that since Peng Chufan was righteous, he was afraid things would be difficult.He had no choice but to detain Peng Chufan and arraign the next one.

The second person to be interrogated was a woman: the wife of party member Zhang Tingfu.

Zhang Tingfu has long been targeted by spies, and his home is the secret stronghold of the Xiaochaojie Literature Club. His wife pretended to be the landlord, so he would be arrested here.During the interrogation, she just shook her head and asked three questions, leaving Tie Zhong helpless.

The third person to be interrogated was Party member Liu Fuji.Like Peng Chufan, Liu Fuji said in one sentence: I am a revolutionary party, and I will be killed if I want to. How can there be so much nonsense?
The last one to be interrogated was Yang Hongsheng. Yang Hongsheng was arrested after a bloody fight with the banner soldiers.Seeing him like this, Tie Zhong and the others didn't need to ask any questions, they got together to discuss it.

Liu Fuji, Peng Chufan and Yang Hongsheng immediately showed their heads to the public.

The Governor Rui Chan issued an order: to tear up the previous notice of arresting party members, and change the arresting party members to "except for the first offender, let the past not be blamed." In order to avoid stirring up incidents, the imperial court intends to deal with it in a low-key manner.

But this low-key, came too late.

Although the party's chain of command has been destroyed, orders are still being passed on quickly.Ever since Zhang Zhidong painstakingly created such a well-operated fighting machine, the sound of this gunshot was already doomed.

No one can stop it.
