The Republic is so violent

Chapter 81
The Japanese shook their heads and sighed: Is there any mistake? You mainlanders were fooled by the Manchus. Wang Yangming is from Jiangxi. This Wei Yuan is still living in the mainland. Although everyone has one copy and it has been printed thousands of times, but in mainland China, even after several printings, it is hard to sell a single copy. Hearing that Mr. Wei can't get the royalties of the manuscript fee, he is already so hungry that he is so hungry.

Jiang Zhiqing's heart was shaken when he heard it, and he firmly remembered the name Wang Yangming, so he went to apply for the army school.But I never thought that Japan's military schools are monolithic, and they have to be recommended by the Chinese Army Ministry, otherwise they will not be accepted.Jiang Zhiqing came in without a door, wandering blindly on the street, suddenly heard a scolding in his ear: "Mother is skinny, don't I just owe you half a year's rent?"Urge what?When I have money, I will definitely pay you back... Jiang Zhiqing was surprised and delighted to hear the familiar accent here, and turned around to see that he was also a student studying in Japan and the Qing Dynasty. He hurried forward to greet him, and learned that this person was Chen Qimei, the leader of the Youth Gang.

Chen Qimei, a native of Wuxing, Zhejiang, is 10 years older than Jiang Zhiqing. She is shrewd and decisive in dealing with affairs. She claims to take adventure as her vocation and is a natural leader.He invited Jiang Zhiqing to eat sashimi and drink sake, and said: Mother is skinny, Xiao Jiang, you suffer because you are young, ignorant, and there is no big boss to take you with you. Japan is a place where good and evil are mixed, and you will be my horse from now on Well boy, I can't lose you.

Then Chen Qimei pointed Jiang Zhiqing: If you want to enter the Japanese army, you have to go back to China first, go to Baoding to study in a military academy, and then let the Ministry of Army of the Qing Dynasty send you to Japan.

Jiang Zhiqing suddenly realized, thanked Chen Qimei, and returned home.Over there, Chen Qimei entered the Tokyo Police Academy as a student, and after Jiang Zhiqing returned to China, he spent more than a month and walked more than 1000 kilometers on foot, and finally arrived at the Tongguo Army Crash School in Baoding.This school was founded by Beiyang Yuan Shikai. The principal of the school is Duan Qirui, a Beiyang general, and Duan Zhigui, a Beiyang gangster who taught Jiang Zhiqing, was the teacher who gave lectures.In the blink of an eye, Jiang Zhiqing studied for a year, and the school really selected students to go to the Japanese Army, but only in the Japanese class, while Jiang Zhiqing studied artillery, it was nothing to do with him.

Now Jiang Zhiqing was in a hurry, and immediately reported to the school, declaring that he had been to Japan and could speak Japanese fluently, if the school refused to accept him, he could be tested.The school administration followed the advice, and immediately gave Jiang Zhiqing a Japanese test, and passed the test smoothly, so Jiang Zhiqing went to Zhenwu School in Japan.This school is a preparatory school specially set up by Japan for students studying in Japan in the Qing Dynasty.Jiang Zhiqing studied hard at Zhenwu School for three years. He had nothing to eat or drink every day. Dozens of students shared a small black room. Although the environment was so difficult, Jiang Zhiqing felt as if he had eaten honey. sweet.

In such a difficult environment, Jiang Zhiqing was happy because under the recommendation of the boss Chen Qimei, he finally met Sun Wen, whom he had admired for a long time, and became a member of the Tongmenghui.

Three years later, Jiang Zhiqing joined the 13th Field Artillery Regiment of the 19th Division of the Takata Army.From then on, he lived a more cruel life than Zhenwu School.While he was training hard, he suddenly received a Jianghu Feiyu order from Chen Qimei, the leader of the Youth Gang, ordering him to return to China immediately and start an uprising to wipe out the Qing Dynasty.

After receiving the order, Jiang Zhiqing immediately reported to the head of the division, Gangwaishi, and lied that his mother was ill and asked for leave to return home to visit.The head of the division replied: Because he was entrusted by the Ministry of Army for management, he could not be allowed to return to the country without authorization-Jiang Zhiqing's request for leave was not approved.

Jiang Zhiqing went to the captain of the regiment, Hisong Kango, and Hisong Kango said, "Your work as a soldier, you can't return home to work randomly, but I can give you 48 hours of personal leave. After the personal leave, if you don't return to the team, He was caught by the military police and beheaded for work.

After Jiang Zhiqing heard this, he said, "Report sir, for 48 hours, I'll go back to China and finish my business before I come back. It's enough, so I'll ask for 48 hours of personal leave."

Feisong Kuanwu said: Yours is very cunning.Knowing that Jiang Zhiqing had made up his mind, he approved his 48-hour vacation.

So Jiang Zhiqing flew from Takata to Tokyo, went to the Zhejiang branch of the Tongmenghui to collect travel expenses, then took the Japanese clothes on his body, together with military uniforms, military swords, wooden soles, and slippers, and sent them all back to the Takata United Team to show that he came and went naked without any worries. An upright style that does not teach others.

However, Jiang Zhiqing is still a registered soldier. No matter how naked he is, once he is caught by the military police, he will be decapitated for desertion, which is inevitable.Therefore, in order to show their determination to save the country, Jiang Zhiqing and his companions hid poison in their palms. Once they were caught by the military police, they would immediately take the poison and commit suicide.

Perhaps it was the Japanese military police who knew that these Qing students who hurried back to China had prepared poison and did not dare to provoke them, so Jiang Zhiqing and other party members returned to China smoothly and safely.

As soon as he got off the boat, he heard a message:
Wuchang has fired the first shot to expel the Tartars, declared independence, and has successively won the solidarity and support of Hunan, Shaanxi, Jiujiang, Nanchang, Shanxi and Yunnan, but this power is no different from candlelight in the wind, it is unbearable A blow from the mighty Beiyang.

In order to respond to Wuchang and win the victory of the Chinese revolution, Shanghai must act now.

(6) Fat also wants a revolution
When Jiang Zhiqing arrived in Shanghai, the beach in Shanghai was already raging with wind and torrents, and a great revolutionary storm was brewing.

It is said that in Shanghai at that time, several huge political forces were active. The most powerful people called Xilou were all die-hard Junxian faction. Li Pingshu, Director of the Department of Civil Affairs of Jiangsu Metropolitan Government, Shen Enfu, Deputy Director, Shi Liangcai, Chief of the Industrial Section of the Department of Civil Affairs, and Zhang Jian, Superintendent of Salt Administration.These people spend every day at the Xilou dinner upstairs, discussing issues while eating and munching.

The main issues discussed by the people in Xilou are: Wuchang Shouyi, which had a huge influence, elected the fat man Li Yuanhong as the governor, but this fat man from Hubei, whether he can do it or not, just replace it.

It's just a change, this dinner club actually sent Zhuang Yunkuan - this person was once supervised by the Guangxi Dulian Public Office, because he secretly protected the Revolutionary Party, he was kicked out of the officialdom, so he came to Shanghai and claimed to be brave The leaders of Xilou went to Wuchang to deliver letters.

Zhuang Yunkuan's message to Li Yuanhong was: Fatty, can you do it, if you can't, let Huang Xing do it, you go to the wild first.

Fatty Li happened to be leading the revolution all over the country, so many strange people suddenly appeared, and Li Yuanhong was almost infuriated to death. Who are they? He thinks I'm fat. What's wrong with me?Who did you provoke?Fat can't lead the national revolution?
Although Li Yuanhong categorically rejected the bizarre leadership of this group of weirdos, it could be seen that this group of weirdos had been thinking about usurping the fruits of victory of the [-] Revolution from the very beginning.

The second political force in Shanghai is concentrated in the Tiebi newspaper. The Tiebi newspaper is a non-existent newspaper, and none of it has ever been published, but its writers are full of talents: Wu Zhihui, Liu Yazi, Dai Tianchou, and Ye Chu A lot of weirdos.But these weirdos were just a cover. They were moaning and chirping on the bright side. Behind them, in the secret room, were hiding Chen Qimei, Song Jiaoren, Tan Renfeng and other brothers from the headquarters of some branches of the Tongmenghui.There is also Cai Yuanpei, an old scholar who founded the Chinese Assassin Group and mainly engaged in assassination business. This group of people sat together, arguing and yelling, arguing about a problem:
Should all the revolutionary parties in Shanghai be dispatched, pay for their own travel expenses, purchase guns and ammunition by themselves, and go to Wuchang to help Li Yuanhong fight the Beiyang Army?Or just do it in Shanghai?

At the beginning, the Wuchang Revolutionary Army under the command of Li Yuanhong captured Hankou with one blow. Chen Qimei and others were overjoyed and decided to go to Wuchang to fight.But everyone had just purchased guns and ammunition, and Beiyang Feng Guozhang had already captured Hankou, beating Fatty Li until he hid on Hongshan Mountain.

So all the members of the League discussed with each other and said: This Fatty Li, he is not good enough, forget it, we ignore him, and we will do it in Shanghai.

In Shanghai, there was a third political force, the Restoration Society led by Tao Chengzhang and Li Xiehe, who lived on Pingjili Road in the French Concession of Shanghai.This is a secret society that made the most tragic sacrifice for the Chinese revolution. It is most famous for its Wu Cheng, Xu Xilin, and Qiu Jin.However, because the elites of the Restoration Society were almost wiped out during the last Guangzhou uprising, the strength of the Restoration Society has been severely reduced.Currently supporting this association are two girls, Yin Ruizhi and Yin Weijun, both of whom are female disciples of Qiu Jin, who once studied at the Mingdao Girls' School run by Qiu Jin.Although the two girls are extremely resolute in their fight against the enemy, they are relatively alienated from the political struggle within the organization.Tao Chengzhang and Li Xie worked hard to raise some money in Nanyang, but they were secretly taken away by Chen Qimei from the League, and the two girls were ignorant.

These three political forces merged quickly after the Uprising in Wuchang and decided to act together to take Shanghai.

(7) The most effective journalistic guidelines

Talking about the people in Xilou, headed by Zhao Fengchang, the first-rank wife of Zhang Zhidong, the former governor of the two lakes, since the gunfire in Wuchang, Zhao Fengchang immediately called Huang Yanpei and asked Huang Yanpei to go to Xiyin Hall to discuss the current situation and discuss countermeasures.When the three political forces were all determined by the Shanghai Uprising, Huang Yanpei began to observe the public opinion and sentiment in Shanghai from the Xilou.

On Wangping Street just below the Xilou, there are newspaper offices one after another next to each other. Every newspaper office has large glass windows and posts news from all over the world every day.Shanghai citizens, supporting the old and the young, brought their children and daughters with them, and there was an endless stream of people who came to Wangping Street to look at the information posted in the newspaper.At the beginning, the Times Office was foolish enough to report everything. When the Wuchang Revolutionary Army captured Hankou, the newspaper posted it, and the people cheered and applauded excitedly.A few days later, the newspaper published the news that the Beiyang Army had recaptured Hankou and the revolutionary army had been beaten to collapse. In an instant, the people were furious, and all the people shouted in unison: Traitor!Traitor!Spread rumors!Spread rumors!Amidst the shouts, everyone picked up bricks and tiles and threw them one after another, only to hear the sound of bang bang, the large glass window of the unlucky newspaper office had been smashed to pieces.

From then on, the newspaper did not dare to report the defeat of the Wuchang Revolutionary Army. If you violated this news rule, the newspaper would definitely be burned to the ground.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Fengchang said with a smile: "The hearts of the people are available."

Since people's hearts are available, let's do it!
On November 11, the patrol team of the Shanghai Zhabei Police Headquarters suddenly raised a clamor, because the director general Yao Jiexun was worried that these patrolmen would secretly communicate with the revolutionaries and would not issue them bullets.During the commotion, a private house accidentally caught fire, so all the patrolmen immediately set off to put out the fire, and when they came back soon, they each had white bandages on their arms. It turned out that everyone had already revolutionized.

Yao Jiexun, chief of Zhabei Patrol Police, fled into the concession.Liu Yanyi from Shanghai Road also went to the concession, and at night, Tian Rongbao from Shanghai County also moved to the concession.Zhang Chubao, the general manager of the Shanghai Manufacturing Bureau, ordered his subordinates to strengthen their precautions. This precaution was not a big deal, and all the military forces in Shanghai were attracted.

After the recovery of Zhabei, a mighty crowd gathered at the Shanghai military camp. This team was extremely complicated, including business groups and civilian troops.Liu Fubiao, who used to sell fists and Dali pills in Yimiao, was at the forefront, holding high the banner of death squads.Famous actresses in the Shanghai theater circle, Xiao Dan, Hua Dan, and Wu Sheng each wore costumes and were the main force of the team.Qiu Jin's disciples, Yin Ruizhi and Yin Weijun, held the bombs they made themselves. Chen Qimei from the Tongmenghui ordered someone to carry two large boxes. When they were opened, the boxes were full of pistols, rifles and bombs. Chen Qimei distributed the guns and ammunition to everyone. , he himself took a white flag—why raise a white flag?
Why did you raise the white flag? We'll talk about that later.It is said that Chen Qimei raised the white flag, shouted, rush, and rushed out of the Shanghai barracks first.

Everyone followed behind Chen Qimei, shouting and rushing towards the Shanghai Manufacturing Bureau.

(8) Attack the Manufacturing Bureau
Having said that, we have to ask: Where did the former student Jiang Zhiqing return from Japan?Why didn't you mention him all of a sudden?

Jiang Zhiqing should be with his second brother Huang Yu.

Who is Huang Yu?
Huang Yu, nicknamed Yingbai, was born in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. When he was studying in the Zhejiang Wubei Academy, he was sent to Japan at the government's expense before he graduated because of his excellent grades.In Japan, Huang Yu was valued by the Tongmenghui and joined the Tongmenghui.After returning from his studies, Huang Yu was favored by Zai Tao, the Minister of the Military Counselor Office, and directly entered the Military Counselor Office.

After the Wuchang First Uprising, Zai Tao, Minister of the Military Counselor Office, immediately called Huang Yu and told him and Li Shucheng to take their parents, wife and children, leave Beijing, and go to the south to discuss cooperation with the Revolutionary Party.Ask the revolutionary party what conditions it has, and any conditions can be negotiated.So Li Shucheng went to Wuchang, and joined Huang Xing to attack Hanyang, but returned in a big defeat.But Huang Yu came to Shanghai to find his elder brother Chen Qimei.

In other words, Chen Qimei, Huang Yu, and Jiang Zhiqing, these three people sworn brothers with different surnames when they were in Japan. Chen Qimei was the eldest brother, Huang Yu was the second brother, and Jiang Zhiqing was the younger brother who ran errands.

What we can be sure of is that Huang Yu is definitely with his eldest brother Chen Qimei, and Jiang Zhiqing is definitely with his second brother Huang Yu, but whether Jiang Zhiqing is also with his eldest brother Chen Qimei is uncertain.

In short, the whereabouts of classmate Jiang Zhiqing cannot be determined now, but everyone has arrived at the gate of the Manufacturing Bureau.Seeing the soldiers inside loaded with live ammunition, their eyes wide open, look at what that means, if everyone wants to rush in again, they will really shoot.So the crowd stopped and shouted to launch a political offensive: Brothers, don't stare at us with a bull's eye, and join us in the revolution... Just listen to a few gunshots inside: No roaring or shouting, it will be true if you shout again. Shot!
The crowd outside the door was very angry: How could Zhang Chubao and the others do this?He actually said that he really wanted to shoot, should he throw a few bombs in?

Immediately someone objected: you can't drop bombs, if you drop a bomb, they will actually shoot, the shooting is so terrible, it will bleed to death.

But if you don't drop bombs, how can you make the guards in the manufacturing bureau surrender?Everyone was thinking hard about a solution, Chen Qimei stood up and said with a smile: No wonder people say that you Shanghainese are worthless and only talk about it. Let me tell you a way to solve the problem without bloodshed.When I go in, I will persuade the soldiers inside, and with my three-inch tongue, Mr. Chen, I promise to make them surrender obediently.

Everyone was overjoyed: That's great, Lao Chen, go in, if someone inside hits you, you should yell loudly.

Chen Qimei said: "Okay, you must be careful when you hear my shout, and don't shoot me."After speaking, he held up the white flag and walked to the door—now you know why the white flag was raised?It was used at this time—Chen Qimei walked to the door and began to speak: Brothers, don’t shoot, we are all Han Chinese, and we are all compatriots.We want revolution, but also for you, you should join us in the revolution, not help the banner people to beat us Han people, don’t you know?
Someone inside yelled loudly: The manufacturing bureau is an important place for military industry, idlers are not allowed to stay in front of the door, get out of here!

Chen Qimei rubbed her nose in failure, and said, "Is there any mistake? Brothers, I'm here to persuade you to make a revolution. Let's make a revolution. Everyone, stand up and make a revolution."

The voice inside the door roared: Are you going or are you not going to go?

Chen Qimei was stunned for a moment: Prime Minister Alabai...before he finished speaking, several soldiers rushed out of the door, and without any explanation, they pinched Chen Qimei's arms and legs and dragged him in forcibly.

Seeing Chen Qimei being dragged in, the armed forces outside the door shouted in unison: What are you doing?What are you going to do?Hurry up and release Lao Chen to us, or don't blame us for dropping the bomb... Shout out, but the inside doesn't care.

After Chen Qimei was dragged in, she was also frightened and angry, so she said loudly: Did you make a mistake?How dare you catch me?Not to mention inquiring about who I am, Chen Qimei. I, Chen Qimei, have not been in Shanghai for a day or two. I have three religions and nine streams, a gentry official township, who doesn't know who, who doesn't know who doesn't know who... During the conversation, he has been dragged Into a meeting room, tightly tied up.

Chen Qimei was detained, and the armed forces outside were very angry, so they complained to all walks of life.This community mainly refers to the business associations left behind in the Fire Fighting Federation.So people from all walks of life rushed to the rescue, entered the manufacturing bureau one after another to intercede, and begged Zhang Chubao inside not to kill Chen Qimei. left.

Zhang Chubao left, but Chen Qimei was still tied up in the manufacturing bureau. What should we do about this?

There is no way but to attack.

So the crowd continued to chant the slogan of grief and indignation: release people immediately and unconditionally, otherwise the bomb will really be dropped. This time I am not joking with you, it will really drop the bomb.This shouting continued until dawn, but Chen Qimei was still not released.Everyone was helpless, so they moved to the back door of the manufacturing bureau, and continued to shout slogans, shouting and shouting, the small boss of a shop at the back door of the manufacturing bureau couldn't stand it anymore, so he said: Look at you idiots, if you can't get in, set fire to it , set fire, I donate ten cans of kerosene to you, but you have to light the fire yourself.

With the support of the small boss, kerosene was poured on the door and the fire was lit. There was a bang, and the guards inside were in a mess. The manufacturing bureau was finally conquered by the heroic people of Shanghai.

(9) The Battle of Forcing the Palace
After the Shanghai Manufacturing Bureau was attacked, the citizens suddenly panicked.This kind of panic is understandable. Previously, the people were extremely bored and their minds were chaotic. They wished for some troubles, so that they could have more talk about life and enrich their boring lives.People in this state are very excited about the negative news from the society, but when the thing they most hope for really happens, everyone suddenly realizes that something is wrong.
