Qing Dynasty Secret History

Chapter 137

It is said that Chen Gengxin broke out from within, and looking back at his comrades, there were only three of them left.It turned out that Lin Yinmin bombarded the supervisor's office, shouted with anger, and was invincible, killing more than [-] people.Seeing that Lin Wen was shot and killed in battle, he was overwhelmed with anger. He danced dumbly, his eyes were protruding, and his eyes were as bright as torches.The body was wounded dozens of times, the whole body was red, the spirit became stronger, the battle became more sick, the roar was like thunder, the sound moved the world, and all the officers and soldiers were startled.The death was hit by a missile in the brain, and he died as a martyr for his country.

Feng Chaoxiang charged in from the outside, but Zhang Mingqi was nowhere to be seen. He charged out again, seeing that the sailors and soldiers had surrounded him, so he swept across with bullets.Chaoxiang's body was wounded many times, blood was pouring out, and he was still fighting left and right with guns.With more than a dozen bullets in his chest, Shang Yili fought with his gun in his hand, and was shot in the face again, Shi suddenly fell down.

Liu Yuandong fought fiercely, his face was almost unrecognizable with blood.When you call his name, you will see him looking up.When I saw my comrades, I showed them my thumbs, as if saying that death is my will, and you are trying to make a big deal, and you were shot and died for a while.

Yu Peilun died when he threw a bomb too close.Lin Juemin fought hard and became popular.Suddenly the missile pierced his waist, fell to the ground, let out a loud cry, jumped up reluctantly, killed many people again, was wounded several times, blood was poured heavily, and he was captured.

Song Yulin and Shi Jingwu were also captured, and Zhu Yuxing also fought to death.Chen Kejun fought vigorously, but was also captured alive by the officers and soldiers.Those who died in battle were killed in battle, and those who were captured were captured.

So Chen Gengxin came out, looking back at his comrades, only Chen Yushen and Fang Shengdonghe were left.Renew the essence of art, sharp eyesight and quick hands, take the time to attack and kill many people.Blood was splashed all over his body, but his body was not severely injured.But seeing a red man in the crowd of officers and soldiers turbulently coming and going like the wind, no one dared to approach him easily.Until the third day of April, after three days and nights of insomnia and hunger strikes, his eyes were red like blood, and the officers and soldiers knew that he was the leader of the Revolutionary Army, so they surrounded him three times.Gengxin ran out of ammunition and ran out of ammunition. He fought hard and was exhausted. Then he was captured. Seeing that he was a beautiful young man, Zhu officials said to him: "You are very young, why are you arguing for chaos? You are looking for suicide.

Gengxin scolded: "I revolted to wake up my compatriots' dreams. What is rampant?"Killing one's body to become benevolent, the ancient sages taught, how can idiots like you know righteousness?Now that you are caught, kill me quickly! "

When he was released to prison, he saw that Chen Yushen and Fang Shengdong were already in prison.

It turned out that Chen Yushen followed Gengxin and came out of the sound hole. The missile hit his left eye, blood poured down like rain, and his clothes were completely red.Fight to the death, try to see the prisoner.Fang Shengdong saw that the navy soldiers surrounded Chen Gengxin to fight, and knew that if they gathered in one place, they would all be wiped out.Just happened to meet Huang Xing, Huang Xing said: "Zi Ming, let's go to assist the training office!"

I saw the navy soldiers rushing over, there were quite a few of them.Sound hole and fight and go.Walking to the bottom of the double gate, he lost contact with Huang Xing again. He was wounded several times, and the battle strengthened. The more enemies came, they were surrounded on all sides.Shengdong's canthus was about to burst, thanks to his agility, he swung a bullet and made a surprise attack, killing more than [-] people including sentry soldier Yong.With a knife wound on his back and a bullet in his chest, blood flowed all over his body and his energy did not fade.The bullets are exhausted, and the soldiers die in battle.

In this battle, everyone fought bravely, one against a hundred, but Fang Shengdong, Lin Yinmin, and Chen Gengxin were especially outstanding.Yin Min's strength can shake mountains, and his arrogance is overwhelming, but unfortunately he was shot in the brain, and he still couldn't kill the enemy with all his strength.Dusheng Cave and Gengxin killed the most, and the official soldiers were wounded by the hands of two people, as many as a hundred people inside and outside.In addition, Yao Guoliang, who intercepted the officers and soldiers at the intersection of Liantang Street, was also outnumbered. Those who were shot by the officers and soldiers were killed and those who were captured were captured.The rest of the three groups that attacked the Superintendent's Office, the Naval Station, and robbed the arsenal of Feilai Temple were also defeated by the defeated officers and returned. Song Yulin, Wei Yunqing, Rao Futing, Yao Guoliang, Li Haishu, Chen Kejun, Chen Ruhuan, and Liang Wei were captured , Luo Kun, Pang Xiong, Chen Yushen, Lin Juemin, etc., asked the members of the Shuiti Yamen for confession.All the heroes talked eloquently, and none of them showed any weakness.When Lin Juemin was asked questions, Juemin saw that most of the committee members were Cantonese, and he was afraid that they could not fully understand Mandarin, so he asked everyone in English if they understood?Then Zhang Mingqi and Li Zhun went out for a question and answer session, and Yin Min gave a generous speech, discussing the general trend of the world and current affairs in various countries.Li Zhunai ordered to go to Liaokou, sit with him, and give him pen and ink.With a wave of his pen, Yin Minxin filled up two papers with thousands of words. When the book reached the point of intenseness, he undressed majesticly and beat his chest with his hands, as if he couldn't bear to rewrite.After writing a piece of paper, Li Zhun held it for Zhang Mingqi to read it.Then write the second one, and when I finished writing the second one, I suddenly wanted to spit, fearing that the ground would be polluted again, and I wished Li Zhun to hold the spittoon close before I spit.When offering smoke and tea, everyone stood up and bowed as a gift.After finishing writing, he gave a speech in the classroom, talked about the pessimism of the current situation, beat his chest and feet, and urged all officials to dedicate themselves to the country, abolish tyranny, and establish a republic, so that the country will be safe and strong in the future, and the people will rest their pillows. Then we are dead but still alive!When the officials heard this, they also sighed.When asked about Chen Kejun, some ridiculed him as a white-faced scholar, why bother to be rebellious and self-mutilate his own life!Ke Jun shouted angrily: "Do you say this is an insult to a strong man? Even if the matter fails, you can also alert your compatriots! You are greedy for profit in officialdom, and your blood is already cold. What's the point of saying this?"

The confession is over, and all the heroes sacrificed their lives calmly.Afterwards, the directors of the Shantang collected the remains, a total of 72, and buried them in Huanghuagang outside Dadongmen.This is a later story.

However, at the beginning of the chaos, Zhang Zhitai sent out an arrow to kill the leader of a revolutionary party and reward him with one hundred silver coins.So innocent merchants and civilians were slaughtered, I don't know how many!The one who contributed the most to the slaughter without braids was the bravery of Li Zhun's subordinates.It is even more impossible to calculate the number of people who lived in shops that were robbed due to chaos.Fang Yong divided the spoils, each with hundreds of yuan.However, the Revolutionary Party acted in a civilized manner without any disturbance. Therefore, the failure of the Revolutionary Party this time bought the sympathy of the people of the whole country and increased the credibility of the people.

On June [-]th, Shuiti Li Zhun was assassinated and injured at Shuangmendi. The Cantonese were all secretly cheering.Another unfortunate thing is that Huang Xing acted hastily, and the Hong Kong comrades were not informed in time, so they never caught them all.Zhao Sheng, Hu Hanmin, and Song Jiaoren arrived in the province on the morning of the [-]th. Knowing that the matter had failed, they returned to Hong Kong by the original ship.Zhao Sheng became sick with resentment, he didn't want to sleep or eat, and then suddenly suffered from abdominal pain. The Japanese doctor diagnosed him as pneumonia, but the medicine didn't help. .Zhao Sheng refused to cut him because he was eager to travel far.In mid-April, the inflammation worsened and he almost went crazy, so they sent him to Yali's Hospital for excision.On the twentieth day, I didn't look at it, and went to sleep forever.

At this time, Huang Xing also escaped from Wanshisheng, and he was recuperating in the hospital.The comrades are elite, and the setbacks are exhausted, so that ordinary people have been discouraged and disappointed.The members of the Alliance League are all born heroes. After a failure, they will have more experience and knowledge, and they will work hard and work hard.The courage to move forward is several times higher than before.

At present, Song Jiaoren suggested that the revolution must be carefully prepared, and there are three strategies: top, middle and bottom.

The best strategy is to revolutionize the central government. It should contact the northern army, use the three eastern provinces as backup, occupy Beijing in one fell swoop, and then give orders to the whole country.Such as Portugal, soil has been done.This is the most benevolent law; the central strategy should be to take action in the Yangtze River Basin, and the provinces must also take large-scale actions at the same time, destroying and building at the same time. After the government is established, it will immediately launch a northern expedition.This is the second strategy; the worst strategy is to set up secret agencies in the border areas, set up secret agencies in foreign territories, and occupy the border areas as a basis, and then Xu Tu advances. The base areas may be the three eastern provinces, or Yunnan, or Guangdong and Guangxi.This is the worst policy.After a discussion, everyone said that the best strategy is a bit difficult to move, and the worst strategy has already failed, and it is enough to cause outsiders to interfere and cause a disaster of division. They decided to adopt the middle strategy and implement the preparation of the middle strategy.So the Hong Kong office was disbanded, that is, a general office was established in Shanghai, that is, the central office of the Tongmenghui. It was established in June of this year, and five general affairs officers were appointed, namely Song Jiaoren, Tan Renfeng, Yang Fusheng, and Chen Yingshi. , Pan Zuyi and five people are in charge.In the Yangtze River Basin, branches have been set up everywhere, ready to make a big move.Tan Renfeng went to the capital due to business, so he was asked to organize the Beijing branch at his convenience.Ask Juzheng to go to Hubei, join hands with the Gongjin Association and the Literature Society, and establish a Hubei branch.Send Zengjie and Jiao Dafeng to set up the Hunan branch, and send Fan Hongxian and Zheng Zancheng to set up the Anhui branch.These sub-committees are all directly under the Shanghai General Office and preside over the work of the Yangtze River Basin Liaison Army.Wu Yongshan and Zhang Maolong from the Tokyo headquarters were about to return to Sichuan and passed by Shanghai. Song Jiaoren asked him to set up a branch in central Sichuan to mobilize troops and communicate with the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.In Shaanxi Province, Jing Wumu was sent to contact the army and set up a branch.The organization was slightly prepared, and Song Jiaoren immediately prepared the strategy.Since Hubei is located in the central part of China, it is appropriate to initiate the uprising first. However, Wuchang was the site of the Four World Wars, and the food and wages were not enough. It was decided that once an incident occurred in Hubei, Hunan and Shu would respond at the same time, so as to relieve the difficulties in the upper reaches and serve as a backup for central Hubei.In addition, the Beijing-Hanzhou railway transports the north and the south, and the enemy troops are easy to transport. After Wuchang is set up, troops will be stationed at Wusheng Pass to prevent the enemy soldiers from going south.On the one hand, Qin and Jin were ordered to attack at the same time, sending troops to cut off the Beijing-Han Railway to divide the enemy's power.We are also afraid that the movement of Hubei will block the downstream, which will make transportation unfavorable, so we plan to move out of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. At the same time, we will launch an incident in Nanjing and blockade the mouth of the Yangtze River, so that the enemy's naval fleet will be isolated. , telling them to act according to plan.Unexpectedly, the Tongmenghui was preparing for the revolution and was actively carrying out everything; the Qing government was preparing for the subjugation of the country and was also actively carrying out everything.This is called the opposite, coincides with each other.

It turns out that since the imperial court promulgated the preparatory constitution, all its actions were extremely happy to go against the likes and dislikes of the people.For example, in March of this year, organize the royal family cabinet, the members of the provincial councils, etc., to express their loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Responsible Cabinet, in line with the constitutional monarchy.Unexpectedly, such an imperial decree was issued: "Deposing a hundred ministers is the power of the emperor, but the members of the council have repeatedly submitted requests, and the discussions are getting more and more arrogant, which may lead to abuse in the long run. You should abide by the outline of the imperial constitution, and do not take the lead in order to conform to the original purpose of the constitutional monarchy."

Seeing this decree, all the councilors complained repeatedly, but they could do nothing.

In the near future, the government should announce the railway policy, and the main roads should be owned by the state, and the branch roads should be used by businessmen and people according to their ability.In the past, all cases approved by the railway were cancelled. If there was any resistance, it would be punished as a violation of the system.The state-owned railway policy of the royal cabinet is based on the loan contract of the latter four countries.

This contract was concluded in April this year, with loans from the banks of Britain, the United States, Germany, France and Japan.When borrowing, it was said that it was to change the currency system and revitalize the industry. According to the contract, the loss of rights would multiply, and the trouble would start.The Chennai government prefers to rely on borrowing for self-respect, entrusting power to outsiders!

As soon as this policy was promulgated, the natives of the four provinces of Sichuan, Guangdong, Hunan and Hubei were struck by a thunderbolt in the clear sky. They were so shocked that they lost their colors and ran around, yelling loudly, hoping that the imperial court would show mercy to their foolishness and do something to remedy the situation.I happened to meet several ministers of the royal family who had no time to talk about it. They brazenly carried out his methods of controlling public opinion and subduing people's hearts. Forty percent will be given to non-profitable stocks; Chuanlu's practical funds will be given to National Poly stocks, and the rest may be allowed to be attached to shares, or to set up another industry, which is also regulated by the upper edict.Qiao Shunan, Shi Dianzhang and others were responsible for Zhichuan Provincial Road Stock Company's loss, but the government neither recognized it.At the same time, Beijing Zizhengyuan asked for an interim meeting to decide on the loan and the budget.Not approved again.

When the competition for roads between Sichuan, Guangdong, Hunan and Hubei was fierce, the imperial court decreed that the Minister of Guangdong-Hanchuan-Hanzhou Railway was appointed to supervise the Guangdong-Hanchuan-Han Railway.He also ordered that all Chuanhan leased shares be stopped, as a way to draw salaries from the bottom of the pot.Governor Yang Wending of Hunan, on behalf of the Advisory Bureau, stated that Xianglu was capable of managing itself and was unwilling to borrow money.On behalf of the Advisory Bureau, Wang Renwen, governor of Sichuan, said that the railway was changed to state-owned, and please postpone the acceptance.All are strictly ordered.After all, the scholars and people in the four provinces are more peaceful. They know that if they strive to do business, they will be notorious for rebelling against the imperial edict.Therefore, after June of this year, there has been a wave of competition for roads in various provinces, but it seems to have temporarily stopped.

Unexpectedly, the government was actively carrying out a new plan to make Chuanlu Prime Minister Li Jixun loyal to the government, so Sichuan affairs became urgent again.This Li Jixun is the Prime Minister of the Sichuan-Han Railway in Yi. Since the state-owned railway policy was promulgated, Li Jixun has submitted a letter to the Ministry of Posts and Communications, saying that since the railway has been nationalized, all previous expenditures should be paid and the settlement method should be determined.

It will be accepted by the official bureau at the beginning, and it may not be completed in a hurry.Afterwards, how to deal with various matters related to engineering materials and whether to leave or leave the engineering department will be decided.

Seeing that he is so knowledgeable and interesting, the government appreciates him very much.Li Jixun paid a visit to Beijing again. He met Sheng Yihuai, the Minister of Post and Communications, and met with Yihui.The Ministry of Posts and Communications ordered Li Jixun to take charge of the work because it was appropriate to return to the road. That is to say, the Ministry of Posts consulted with the governor of Sichuan and transferred it to the head office of Luchuan Road for compliance.When this corner of the official document went to the middle of Sichuan, people in the middle of Sichuan immediately stirred up a huge wave.The people of Sichuan said that Li Jixun had no notice from the head office, the resolution of the shareholders meeting, and the order of the governor of Sichuan, and he sent it to the Ministry without authorization; The governor of Sichuan, please act on behalf of the Ministry of Posts and Communications.On the one hand, leaflets were published, announcing the whole Sichuan, the merchants went on strike, and the students went on strike.All taxes and miscellaneous contributions will not be paid, and the dividends will be deducted.It was the first day of July in the third year of Xuantong.

The wave of city strikes and school strikes has become more and more intense. It was first initiated in Chengdu and gradually spread to various genus.First, the Sichuan gentry organized the Baolu Comrades Association, and the governor Wang Renwentui presided over it, and ordered all states and counties to protect it, so the Baolu Comrades Association was established.This strike against the market and classes was also decided by the Baolu Comrade Association.At that time, the scene of the whole Sichuan was like New Year's Day.However, what I found on New Year's Day was a sense of liveliness, and what I found at this moment was a sense of sadness.No Thailand is different, bitterness and joy are different!In addition, the merchants, in addition to striking the market and striking classes, even offered the sacred tablet of Emperor Dezongjing to every family, and mourned in unison, which was a miserable scene.It's not the same as the crowing of monkeys in Wu Gorge, and the cry of cranes in Huating!General Yukun, Governor Zhao Erfeng, etc. saw this situation and couldn't take it seriously, so they contacted Dianjing and asked to temporarily return the Sichuan Road to the commercial office, and submit the loan for road construction to the Zizheng Yuan for resolution.When I received the telegram, there was a saying of "handling open and sincere persuasion carefully and carefully", thinking that big things can be turned into small things, and small things can be turned into nothing.Unexpectedly, when things came to an end, the government's decree suddenly changed again.It turned out that Duan Fang, the minister who supervised the railway, arrived in Wuchang on the ninth day of June after accepting the brief order.At this meeting, I suddenly heard the imperial decree, and ordered Zhao Erfeng to "handle it carefully and persuade him openly", which was very intended to make a difference, and it would not be without hindrance to his job.Then he drafted an electronic performance, especially impeaching Wang Renwen and Zhao Erfeng for being cowardly and incompetent.The imperial decree ordered the Duanfang governor to enter Sichuan, and appointed the four governors of Guangdong, Hubei, Sichuan and Hunan as ministers of the railway association.Zhao Erfeng silently peeped at the court's intentions and knew that he had no intention of turning around. After all, official positions are rare and people's lives are light, so his original intention of pleading for the people's orders gradually changed into a cunning scheme to flatter the government.

Poor Sichuan people, how do you know?From the first day of July to the present, they have been running and appealing every day, striking the market and classes, suspending taxes and donations, and at the same time, some people are spreading self-insurance discussion papers.On July 19th, the railway company held a special shareholder meeting.Zhao Erfeng suddenly made a list, and sent an official to pass the news that the chairman of the shareholders' meeting and the ministers of the Baolu Comrade Association, a total of [-] people, went to the Zhitai Yamen to discuss matters, saying that there was good news in Beijing and they were waiting for consultations.Everyone didn't know what to do, so five people agreed to go right away. They were Pu Dianjun Luo Lun, director of the Advisory Bureau, Yan Kai and Zhang Lan, chairman of the shareholders' meeting, and Deng Xiaoke, chairman of the comrades' association.Unexpectedly, these five talents stepped out of the gate of the shareholders' meeting, and countless soldiers and policemen supported them with guns, like a robber.

When all the people saw it, they were all shocked and angry, so they followed each other and followed into Zhitai Yamen to see what happened.If you want to know whether Bo Dianjun and others are going here, it will be a good or bad time, and you will give a speech in the next reply.
