Text Chapter 72 The thigh of the Tongmenghui

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The "fisherman" in the north has a strong army ready to be sold at a high price. The old fox in the south seems to have been emptied out by the party and has no power. But unless the party destroys him, no one can move it. With people like Cai Jimin and Wu Zhaolin here, eight  Actual control of the town is still in his hands.  Sun Wu and other party members were in full swing with their great righteousness, and their righteousness could at least sustain them until the Qing Dynasty abdicated.

    As for himself Yang Qiuning stood at the window, looking at the slightly messy formation of new recruits in the campus, with a smile on his lips, because he was also growing rapidly at a speed that ordinary people could hardly imagine!

    After a night of persuasion, more than 700 of the prisoners sent back from Wushengguan agreed to fight anyway, and the first batch of 3,000 recruits recruited from the two towns were all completed.  In order to maintain the essence of the army, all soldiers recruited this time are workers and peasants, excluding all the party members, gangs and homeless people who are favorites of the party members.  Compared with the complex old army, these undecided young people are the future of this group. From now on, they need to be broken up together with the regular soldiers to receive a month of intensive training. The training plans and programs are all new ones compiled by him.  Training syllabus, in addition to repeated ideological education, these important matters will be arranged by Xiao Anguo himself.

    After He Xi took the credit, Yue Peng was unwilling to be followed and brought good news. First, he stopped the 41st Battalion who were returning to Wuchang overnight and persuaded most of them to join the Right Army. Then he rushed to Hanchuan without stopping and forcibly incorporated the Liang brothers.  The rebels, after eliminating the restless factors, broke them up and reorganized three battalions with the 41st standard veterans. They are currently operating separately from Hu Laosan.

    The biggest problem before him was not the several Qing patrol camps in Xiangyang and other places, but Liu Ying in Jingshan!  In the parallel world, the Liu Ying brothers grew rapidly in the name of deputy governor of the Hubei military government. They swept across both sides of the Han River with great momentum. They also participated in the second revolution and were die-hard party members. Whether they can win without bloodshed is related to whether they can continue to maintain the surface of Hubei.  Peace.

    Song Ziqing is not that fast yet. It will take four days to reach Chongqing along the river. In addition, it will take until the end of the month to catch up with the Sichuan and Hubei troops.  What worries him the most now is ordnance. He is guarding Hanyang but does not have enough armaments. If he tells it, it may make people laugh.

    The original reserve was about 9,000 Hanyang-made rifles, but Yue Peng took away 3,000, and the school grounds below also needed nearly 4,000. What He Xi seized this time were all Japanese Type 30 rifles with incompatible ammunition.  When a large number of new recruits come back, they will face the embarrassment of having no guns to use.  The ammunition was slightly better. Shen Shukai's increased purchasing efforts temporarily alleviated the problem of material shortage. The production of pointed bullets gradually increased as the workers became more skilled, and the craftsmanship and quality were also improved under Su Hongsheng's personal supervision.  After several days of testing, the grenade entered the manufacturing stage yesterday.  As for the artillery, I don't think about it. Even if Germany can deliver another batch, it will not be able to gather that many artillery.

    Now He Xi is guarding Wusheng Pass, with Xiongguan as a screen machine gun. As long as Beiyang continues to work hard, there will be no problem in continuing to guard Wusheng Pass for half a month.  This means that the most needed time is finally obtained after continuous and even breathless deployments.

    Make good use of this time and quickly capture most of Hubei's area north of the Yangtze River. It is best to capture Chongqing and Guang'an as planned. You will have a good base. If Germany can respond early and complete the transaction  If so, there will be a glimmer of light in the locked-down future!

    It¡¯s justwhat path can I take this group to in the end?  He wasn't sure yet.  The tiger is watching from the north, and the old fox is not very tolerant. Sun Wu will not be willing to have his peach taken away, not to mention the big figures like Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren who are about to come!  ButI'm afraid they are also having a headache now, right?

    Yang Qiu then discovered that he could unknowingly influence the overall situation of the world, but he soon gave up his fantasy, put down the curtains, and picked up the long-conceived plan of a crash course for National Defense Army non-commissioned officers.

    The crash course for army non-commissioned officers was a very common method in the early Republic of China to quickly and mass-train junior officers and technical soldiers. The expansion of the army has become unstoppable, and the growing gap in junior officers has forced him to accelerate the establishment of crash courses.

    Fortunately, compared to starting with nothing, Hubei has many advantages.  Hubei Armed Forces Academy, which has trained military officers such as Wu Luzhen and is well-known throughout the country, is the best resource.  Since most of the students in Wuchang Shouyi Post-Uprising School participated in the revolution, the teachers and instructors were regarded by the party members as belonging to the old military officer system, and all of them lost their livelihoods for a while.  After he learned about it, he immediately asked Zhang Wenjing to win over most of them with a high salary of 100 oceans per person per month. At this moment, all these people had arrived in Hanyang and were arranged at the newly built Mohu Qili Temple. What needed to be decided now was to concentrate on tackling key problems.  Those subjects.

    Command, artillery, surveying and mapping, engineers and battlefield medical care are the most urgent needs at present. If you want to start a heavy machine gun class, you can't find an instructor. As for the hunter, don't even mention it. After thinking about it, he also added a generalinformation and government affairs training.

    The communications class will be taught by radio operators drawn from the naval camp, and the government affairs training class is not for the immediate future. He does not want to be controlled by the constitutionalists all his life, but this class cannot be placed in Hanyang, otherwise Tang Hualong will definitely guess it if he finds out.  He is setting out to leave them alone.  After he signed the preparation documents for the National Defense Army NCO crash course, Zhang Wenjing happened to come in and saw him. His brows deepened: "Commander, I really have no money if I keep going through this!"

    Zhang Wenjing has been worried about his hair growing out recently. Shou Yiye has indeed made a fortune, but his money has been spent recently, including doubling the salary, expanding the army, settling the new recruits, purchasing urgently needed raw materials, and operating expenses for the Hanyang factory that has just started.  , these alone have cost nearly three million, and if Traun agrees to sell arms, it will be a large sum. The more his money bag shrinks, the pressure on his logistics manager will gradually increase.

    What¡¯s more, at this moment, it¡¯s all investment and no output!

    The northward march has just begun, and there will be a battle against the elite Beiyang army. The most optimistic estimate is that it will take three or four months for taxes in the controlled area to be collected.  The customs side is also unable to receive money for the time being. The foreigners are now united and say that they will have to wait until the end of the war to restart customs gold distribution, so in the past few days, he has been dreaming about digging a gold doll.

    This complaint made Yang Qiu raise his forehead. In addition to paying taxes, he now hopes that Song Ziqing can send good news as soon as possible, and then use Chongqing as a base to develop towards the Western Sichuan Plain, which is the essence of Sichuan.  Sugar from Zizhong and Neijiang; grain from Luzhou and Yibin; and the Ziliujing salt area comparable to Yangzhou. In a parallel world, the total military expenditure of the Sichuan warlords in 1916 was only 6 million, but ten years later it reached a staggering 43.6 million.  !  The seven-fold increase in ten years was almost entirely due to artesian wells.  In addition, the other big fortune that can be thought of is the eight million treasury silver in the Chengdu treasury, but this money has been difficult to obtain so far.

    Whether Germany will agree or not is yet to be seen. Artesian can't bypass Rong County, which is controlled by the party and has been destroyed, and enters Chengdu It still can't bypass Brother Pao and the party!  Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Why is the road so difficult?  Are you too soft-hearted?  Would it be a better option to go to war directly with the party members?  Isn¡¯t it too unfair to try to restrain yourself for the sake of the official status that you haven¡¯t fully obtained until now?

    "Commander, Speaker Tang is here, and he also brought a man named Ju Zheng."

    "Ju Zheng! I'm finally back"

    Bingwen knocked on the door and brought the news that Ju Zheng and Tan Renfeng had finally returned from Shanghai.  Yang Qiu immediately stuffed the piles of appropriation documents back into the drawer. What would this one of the few Tongmenghui bosses developing in Hubei bring to him?

    As he walked steadily towards the living room, Ju Zheng also held a teacup and looked curiously at the recruits who were undergoing training on the campus. He saw them forming a neat formation, each of them staggered a few meters apart, practicing bayonet fighting.  Kill, shouting loudly every time a sword was struck. Many of the soldiers were obviously so tired that they were shaking and unsteady, but they still gritted their teeth and persisted. The officer supervising the training next to them did not say to rest, but kept shouting, "Soldiers must follow orders."  Peace and obedience are our bounden duty," "We are the National Defense Force," "We sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime," and "Practice hard to kill the enemy for the people and the country." These are motivational words.

    But this passionate scene did not make him feel excited, but rather at a loss.  Because he didn't expect that he missed the most important moment because he just went to Shanghai. A gunshot from the engineering battalion made the whole of China spin rapidly. As a senior member of the Tongmenghui, it is gratifying that Shouyi can succeed, but the center of the whirlpool makes people  The unexpected change left him at a loss.

    The biggest change is the unexpected rise of Yang Qiu. This young man who had been slandered all over the world for becoming the last "loyal and brave Batulu" of the Manchu Qing Dynasty actually turned into a revolutionary pioneer!  What exactly is going on?  In order to figure this out, he ignored the fatigue of the journey and immediately asked Tan Renfeng to see Li Yuanhong to convince him to officially take over as the governor. After that, he dragged Tang Hualong, who he had a good relationship with, to the Hanyang camp, hoping to see Yang Qiu in person.

    "Chen Hua is late. I hope Mr. Ju Zheng and Brother Ji Wu will forgive me."

    Hearing the voice, Ju Zheng quickly stood up and looked around, only to see a young man in his early twenties, with a heroic appearance, a tall figure, and a straight military uniform appeared at the door with an officer. As the two came in, there was a wave of  The strong military aura that hit his face actually made him pause slightly.

    Tang Hualong, of course, wished that Yang Qiu would always be a pure soldier. He smiled affectionately and said, "Chen Hua is still able to come to see us despite his busy schedule. He should say a word to bother me."

    "Brother Jiwu is really good at talking." Yang Qiu's eyes never left the famous man in front of him, who was also known as the anti-Red die-hard for the rest of his life. Seeing him slightly surprised, he smiled secretly in his heart. This man and the big man at this moment  Like some party members, they have not been baptized by the political turmoil of the early Republic of China, and are far from being indifferent to favors and humiliations.

      "When I was in Shanghai, I heard Dunchu mention Chen Hua many times, saying that you are extremely capable and skillful. Unexpectedly, you are also proficient in military training, which makes Juesheng very envious."

    "Mr. Ju Zheng praised me. Brother, I am an authentic red-topped Batulu. A few days ago, there were people assassinating me in the street and wanting to eat my flesh." Yang Qiu smiled slightly and was about to ask the two of them to sit down, but Ju Zheng  Suddenly he bowed.

    Yang Qiu was a little surprised. Just as he was about to reach out to help him, he already stood up and said seriously: "First, I saved Dun Chu's life in Chengdu, and then he rose up in accordance with the righteousness. He captured Ruicheng, Zhang Biao, the first battle against Liujiamiao, and the flying blockade of Wusheng Pass.  When Wuchang was leaderless, it bought time to consolidate the revolutionary achievements! For this kind of contribution, let alone bowing, even if you have to kneel down and kowtow, you should do it."

    "Mr. Ju Zheng, thank you very much. I said when I took the oath of arms in Hankou the day before yesterday, soldiers should obey orders to protect their homes and the country, but" Yang Qiu secretly felt strange in his heart that this Ju Zheng held himself up so high.  What do you want to do?  He quickly winked at Tang Hualong and said, "Although Governor Li from Wuchang has sent electricity to the whole country, he has not yet issued the order. My brother was anxious and had to take action."

    "Yeah" Tang Hualong took the opportunity to say: "Since Shouyi, the soldiers have not practiced and will not obey orders. Some people are still domineering and fighting for power. They know that the position of governor has been determined but they still take chances. If Chen Hua hadn't taken the initiative, I'm afraid  Hey!" Hearing his deliberate sigh, Zhang Wenjing was secretly amused. Who didn't know that those who wanted to fight for power the most were the constitutionalists like them. If Li Yuanhong hadn't been completely determined as the governor,  In addition, most of the temptations of Hubei's civilian government at the beginning of the northward march will probably not come to support the Right Army.

    Yang Qiu also added to the fire and continued: "The unethical foreigners are rampant in the Qing Dynasty. Chen Hua was born in Hubei. He did not want his hometown to continue to be in chaos, so he followed the righteousness and led his brothers to join the revolution. But if this continues soldiers  My heart may feel cold."

    The words between the two of them made Ju Zheng frown secretly.  Although he had just come back, he didn't understand the affairs here at all. Sun Wu and Zhang Zhenwu were very dissatisfied with Li Yuanhong's appointment as governor, and had been looking for opportunities to replace him. However, people who lacked virtue did not implement it, so the two men said this  The words were not so much a vomiting of bitterness as a warning to the governor that it would cause great changes.

    Ju Zheng certainly doesn¡¯t want to replace Li Yuanhong. He is from Hubei anyway, and he doesn¡¯t want to have to look at other people¡¯s faces after Shouyi succeeds. What¡¯s more, there is another little thought here, which is whether the Alliance can regain its position as a leader!

    In fact, Yang Qiu's words just now were also intended to arouse the fire in his heart. In the parallel world, Ju Zheng was tricked by Tang Hualong into creating the "Organization Regulations of the Wuchang Military Government." This kind of regulations strengthened the governor's real power and excluded the Association for Advancement and Literary Society.  In addition to being too immature politically, he also wanted to use this to regain the initiative of the Alliance.  In fact, he almost succeeded in the end, but it was a pity that Huang Xing failed to live up to his expectations and was defeated. As a result, the Tongmenghui finally had to go to Shanghai and Hubei to fight for the right to speak in the country.  So when he saw that his face was constantly gloomy, he continued to fan the flames: "It would be great if Mr. Sun was in the country, so that we could elect him as the president, make Governor Li the marshal of the army, and then use Hubei to control the whole country and call for  People with lofty ideals rose up to completely overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and they would save others from making irresponsible remarks."

    Ju Zheng felt his heart pounding as he pretended to be calm and asked, "Chen Hua wants to nominate Mr. Sun as the president?!"

    Yang Qiu smiled slightly. This time there was almost no alliance in Wuchang Shouyi. Now that he is offering such a big sweetener, Ju Zheng should be able to understand it no matter how inexperienced he is. He nodded: "Apart from Mr. Sun, who else in the world can take this responsibility?"  This important task? If someone wants to usurp it Humph!" He deliberately sneered twice: "First, I have to ask my brother about the tens of thousands of guns I have!"

    Tens of thousands of guns?  !  Zhang Wenjing was beside him and his stomach was about to cramp. At this moment, the right army had less than 10,000 guns at full strength. In the commander's mouth, it turned into tens of thousands. This speed was faster than the aircraft that had just become popular in Europe.  However, he also sincerely admired Yang Qiu. As long as he could hold back Ju Zheng and tie up the big tree of the Alliance, all the future problems of the Right Army that worried him would be solved. If done well, it might even become an army directly under the central government!

    Ju Zheng was even more elated. After Huanghuagang, Sun Wen left and Huang Xing fled to Hong Kong in despair. As a result, the power of the Tongmenghui declined and it gradually lost its right to speak in leading the heroes.  For example, the Wuchang Shou Uprising this time was all due to the Literary Society and the Tongjin Association. Now even the military power is controlled by them. Who will be willing to listen to the Tongmenghui as time goes by?  Originally, the Tongmenghui was very dissatisfied with the split, and had always believed that the whole country should have one voice. Now Hubei has taken the lead in the uprising, and has also taken over all the elite Eight Towns and 21 Mixed Associations of the Southern Army, making the Tongmenghui even more absolutely weak, which will have a great impact on the future.  It has a great influence on whether he can take power, so Yang Qiu is throwing a huge hydrangea!  If Yang Qiu and his National Defense Right Army are brought under the name of the Tongmenghui, wouldn't this mean!

    This??He was really confused, and even wanted to immediately cut off the chicken head and burn yellow paper with Yang Qiu to introduce him to the meeting. He suppressed the surprise and asked: "Chen Hua, I heard that you don't seem to have joined any political party, why?"  Want to elect Mr. Sun as president?¡±

    Yang Qiu put on the posture of the most ardent fan, stood up and waved vigorously and said: "To be honest, sir, what Chen Hua admires most in his life is Mr. Sun's perseverance in overthrowing the Qing Dynasty and revitalizing China. It's a pity that we have never met each other. If only this boy could  Knowing where the Master is now, thousands of mountains and rivers must follow him."

    "Chen Hua really wants to see Mr. Sun?"

    "Of course! Chen Hua still wants to sit down and listen to Mr. Sun's teachings. Unfortunately, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not been overthrown yet, and I am the only one in Hubei to recover first. I don't know if there is a chance!   ¡±

    Ju Zheng finally couldn't hold back his excitement and said with a smile: "Chen Hua doesn't have to be sorry. Mr. Sun has already set off from the United States. He plans to visit Britain and France first to seek support. He should come back in a while. At that time  "

    "Is this true? Mr. Sun is coming back?" Yang Qiu pretended to be surprised. After interrupting, he waved his arms and said, "Great! As long as Mr. Sun comes back, we will invite him to come to Hubei, the thoroughfare of nine provinces.  It is a good place to rule the country and command the heroes! With the prosperity of Hubei, as long as we can secure Hunan and Sichuan, we will definitely be able to take the lead in launching the nationwide Northern Expedition and completely overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty!"

    Tang Hualong listened with stars in his eyes. He had never thought about competing for the presidency, but if Wuchang could be positioned as the national capital!  Doesn't that mean?  He quickly agreed: "Chen Hua's words are good. Since the revolution has begun, there should be some new atmosphere! There are so many remnants of Manchu Tatars in the north that it is not suitable to establish a capital. Wuchang is the thoroughfare of nine provinces and is a world-famous rich place. It also has Hanyang's ordnance industry.  Come out, why worry about failure!"

    Yang Qiu secretly laughed in his heart, if Beiyang is not eliminated, how can he come to the central government?  But now he really needed a big backer, so he said excitedly: "Brother Jiwu has great insights! Since the revolution has begun, there should be a new atmosphere. Since Mr. Sun is coming back, I think we should immediately electrify the whole country.  Li Du was temporarily appointed as the general marshal of the world's military forces, controlling the revolutionary forces across the country, and making overall plans to achieve the goal of promoting the first rebellion across the country and ultimately overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty."

    Seeing Ju Zheng nodding vigorously, Tang Hualong immediately took out the "Wuchang Military Government Organization Regulations" that he asked Huang Zhongkai to draft. Yang Qiu became slightly cold after reading it. If this regulation is passed, it will mean that the old fox in the south has officially turned over!  But he could not hesitate now, so he proposed to join the Yangxia Military Government Branch and the Right Army of National Defense. He also suggested changing the name to the "Organizational Regulations of the Hubei Military Government of the Republic of China", which would be more justifiable.

    Ju Zheng was naturally willing to change this name. Chinese literati have deep-rooted regional concepts. Moreover, he also wanted to take this opportunity to seize Yang Qiu and his right army and allow the Alliance to regain control of the national discourse.

    After the three people finished their discussion, Ju Zheng thought for a while and said: "Chen Hua, it is really not possible to prevent the Right Route Army and Wuchang from communicating with each other. Tomorrow, Governor Li will hold a ceremony to worship the heaven to tell the world and restore the Han Dynasty. You  But you must come and attend.¡±

    Yang Qiu smiled and glanced at Zhang Wenjing, who was sitting with him. The latter immediately handed over a confession: "Mr. Ju Zheng, Speaker, you are all the pillars of the military government. You have to make the decision for our commander. If  The safety of the commander cannot be guaranteedthe right army will never cross the river!"

    Tang Hualong was the first to take it and read it. After reading it, he was even more happy. This is simply a huge gift!  So he deliberately slapped the table hard: "Nonsense! It's just nonsense! What's the difference between such despicable behavior and the bandit Qingpi!"

    Ju Zheng also frowned secretly after reading it. He didn¡¯t expect that there were so many things going on here. Jiang Yiwu and Zhang Zhenwu also made mistakes. How could they appoint a scoundrel like Jin Shili?  If this incident caused Yang Qiu to become alienated from the Alliance, wouldn't all the previous discussions be in vain?  So he also said: "Chen Hua, don't worry, Dunchu has told me everything about Sichuan that day, and our alliance will definitely give you justice."

    Yang Qiu smiled slightly: "Thanks to my husband's assurance, brother, I can finally throw away my label as a Manchu thief. It's just that under the guise of revolution, Jin Diaoliang wantonly massacred the people of Hankou and destroyed thousands of businesses. It is really an unforgivable crime! A gangster  How dare you be so blatant, a gangster, and you still have money to spare! Who gave him the courage and weapons?"

    Ju Zheng and Tang Hualong understood what he meant. This confession was a great gift. As long as Sun Wu, Zhang Zhenwu and others could be silenced by this matter, it would be easy to pass the regulations, so they immediately promised: "Chen Hua, don't worry, you can do whatever it takes."  But across the river, Jiwu and I can guarantee with our lives that nothing will happen again."

    "The brothers are waiting here for news about the two of you." Yang Qiu picked up the cup and toasted again, then suddenly asked with a curl of the corner of his mouth: "By the way, there is one more thing to trouble with."?You two, our right-hand army is very short of weapons right now. I don't know  "

    "Chen Hua can send someone to Chu Wangtai tomorrow to collect the required guns and weapons. If anyone blocks it againthen don't blame me for being rude!" Ju Zheng had already thought about this matter before it happened.  After he finished speaking, he pretended: "It's just I also know that Hankou is the main battlefield, but Wuchang has to give Governor Li a face. Chen Hua, can you reduce the number appropriately?"

    "Sir, you have said so. How can Yang Qiu not obey it?" After speaking, he turned around and said seriously: "Wen Jing, you will send someone to get it later Hanyang will make 10,000 bullets."  1.5 million rounds, 30 cannons, shells, gunpowder and military supplies." Yang Qiu pretended to suddenly remember and slapped his forehead, looking at Tang Hualong: "I almost forgot, there are still 300,000 military supplies and  One hundred skilled artillerymen!¡±

    "Chi"

    Tang Hualong almost spat Ju Zheng's face with a sip of tea, but he needed Yang Qiu now, so in the end he could only grit his teeth and agree to allocate funds immediately after the military government was completely settled.
