The 175th episode Yong Huangxing broke through to avoid Hong Kong
After Huang Xing was dispersed by the Qing army, he took refuge in a small foreign goods store in a panic, and after the Qing army retreated, he hurriedly called the shop guy to drink tea, and shouted for a while, but there was no one in the store, and then he felt that the wound on his finger was extremely painful and bleeding. Huang Xing saw that there happened to be a basin of clean water in the store, so he used the basin of cold water to rinse the wound mud, and the basin of clear water immediately turned red. Huang Xing hurriedly tore off a piece of cloth again, tightened the wound to stop the bleeding.
At this time, the board on the wall suddenly opened, and a person suddenly came out of it, which startled Huang Xing. Huang Xing saw that he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, like a guy in the store, and his heart was a little calmer, and he hurriedly said to him: "I was injured and want to go to the causeway, can you send me to the causeway?" ”
The young man nodded, and from that look he seemed to recognize Huang Xing as a revolutionary. He found a black robe from the house, replaced Huang Xing's bloody clothes, and then asked Huang Xing to wear a small straw hat, and then led Huang Xing all the way to avoid the Qing army and walked towards the causeway.
The young man sent Huang Xing to the causeway, called a small boat, and Huang Xing asked to cross the river to the temple opposite. The boatman looked at Huang Xing and said, "It's okay to cross the river, but you have to ask for two silver dollars." The young man said, "Aren't you a liar?" You can't earn two silver dollars if you work for a month. The boatman glared and said, "I can't love it, but I pull it down, and now the city is fighting fiercely, and at this time it is not the revolutionary party who crosses the river, but someone else." ”
Huang Xing hurriedly said: "Okay, I have patients at home, and I can't take care of it much, so two pieces will be two." He gave the boatman two silver dollars, and the boatman agreed to cross the river with Huang Xing.
Huang Xing waved goodbye to the little guy on the boat, thinking to himself, as long as I can live in the future, I must come to see this cute life-saving little benefactor.
Huang Xing went ashore, and when he asked, he realized that he was still far from the agency, so he had to walk slowly, and when he arrived at the Shuzhuqiao grocery store, he asked the shopkeeper: "Where is the Xixia Hotel, and how far is it?" Since Huang Xing was from Hunan, the shopkeeper couldn't understand it, so he just shook his head vigorously.
At this time, a policeman came over and asked Huang Xing: "What are you doing and where are you going?" When Huang Xing saw that he was a policeman, he thought badly, his accent was not a local, and the policeman inevitably doubted it, so he pretended to be dumb, pointed to his mouth, and shook vigorously.
The policeman looked Huang Xing up and down, left and right, and then looked at the injuries on his hands and said, "I think you look like a revolutionary, you ran out of the city, right?" Huang Xing was anxious, and hurriedly said in Hunan dialect: "Where am I a revolutionary party, I am a trader, and I was injured in the city, so don't go to my relatives' house." The policeman asked, "Where are your relatives?" Huang Xing said: "It's not far from the Xixia Hotel. The policeman said, "Wouldn't it be over if you didn't say it earlier?" He pointed to the Shuzhu Bridge and said, "On the Shuzhu Bridge, it is not far from the Xixia Hotel." With that, he walked away.
At this time, Huang Xing was already shocked into a cold sweat, thinking to himself, this policeman must be a revolutionary or sympathetic to the revolutionary party, otherwise, he would not let me go so easily.
Huang Xing went up to the Shuzhu Bridge, looked at the fire in the city, looked at the gunpowder smoke in the sky above the city, and listened to the intermittent gunshots in the city, and his heart could not be calm for a long time. I don't know how many revolutionaries shed their blood on the battlefield in this battle and sacrificed their lives for the republic! Now the most important thing is whether these backbone of the alliance in the city, the revolutionary elite, can escape from the tiger's den in Longtan as soon as possible? The more they survive, the more spark they will keep for the revolution in the future.
As for whether this uprising should be held or not? …… Who is right and who is wrong, let future generations comment.
With a heavy heart, Huang Xing arrived at the Xixia Hotel, and walked around about 30 zhang east of the Xixia Hotel according to the predetermined direction. Huang Xing didn't know the door number on the organ, but he knew that the house was Hu Mansion in the organ, and he had just married a relative, so he carefully watched the surrounding movements.
In the dark night, there is a house, there are two big red double happiness lanterns hanging at the door, there are festive couplets, the upper couplet is: "Dao Hezhi is the same as the New Year's choice of a good couple", the lower couplet is: "Love is deep and auspicious day to tie the knot", and the horizontal couplet is: "Tie the knot".
Huang Xing knocked on the door three times and slowly twice, but no one answered. After a while, Huang Xing continued to knock according to the code. After knocking for a long time, a woman inside asked, "Who?" ”
Huang Xing said: "I am passing, thirsty, looking for saliva to drink. "There was no one in there to say yes, like an empty house. Huang Xing continued to knock again, and for a long time, the woman inside said in annoyance: "There is no one at home, don't knock." ”
Huang Xing begged and said, "My mouth is too thirsty, you just open the door and let me go in and find saliva to drink." No one spoke inside, and no one paid attention to Huang Xing anymore.
Huang Xing had no choice but to knock patiently on the door. The woman was really impatient, opened the door a crack, and shouted at Huang Xing: "There is no man in the house, don't knock!" Huang Xing grabbed the crack in the door with his hand and said, "You just let me go in and find saliva to drink, I'm so thirsty." The woman was reluctant to let Huang Xing in, but when she saw that Huang Xing was holding on to the crack in the door and couldn't close the door, she had to mumble angrily: "I didn't see you such a scoundrel, if I don't let you in, you want to enter." So I had to open the door, ignore Huang Xing, and go to sleep in my own room.
Huang Xing entered the courtyard, slammed the door with his backhand, and looked at the courtyard, everywhere was dark and silent, it really seemed to be uninhabited, only a small oil lamp was lit upstairs, like a firefly, swaying like a broad bean.
Huang Xing shouted softly twice: "Is there anyone upstairs?" Is there anyone upstairs? Upstairs there was still no answer.
Huang Xing had no choice but to go upstairs gently, and through the dim light, he saw that the door was open upstairs, and there was a person standing at the door, not moving. Huang Xing shouted twice: "What person, what are you doing there?" The man remained motionless. Huang Xing was taken aback, this person was not strangled to death, if he was strangled to death, this must be an ambush set up by the Qing army, is it not that I just got out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den. Huang Xing's heart hung up suddenly, and he didn't dare to move, but he pricked up his ears and listened to the movements around him in a creepy manner, listening to the slightest slight noise from the ambush.
After listening to it for a while, there seemed to be no sound around. Huang Xing thought, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to be afraid, so he had to be bold, walked in front of the person, and looked carefully, it turned out that this was a young woman, her chest was slightly shaking, as if she was dozing off.
Huang Xing poked her gently, and the woman suddenly woke up, and when she saw Huang Xing's appearance, she was so frightened that she danced and shouted: "Mom-" This shout really scared Huang Xing out of her body.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps on the stairs, and Huang Xing hurriedly took out the gun from his waist in a panic. Huang Xing couldn't pull out a gun, so he hurriedly grabbed a tea bowl in the house and used it as a weapon, fighting to the death against the people who came up at the staircase.
After a while, a woman came up from the top of the stairs, saw Huang Xing's appearance, was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Commander Huang, it turned out to be you!" Huang Xing recognized her, it turned out to be Xu Zonghan in the organ, and he was relieved.
Xu Zonghan saw that Huang Xing's hands were bleeding and had been ticked to the ground through the bandaged rags, and hurriedly ordered the dozing woman: "Look at you, just knowing how to sleep, I almost missed a big thing, hurry up and get some boiling water, get some food, I will dress this comrade's wound first." ”
Xu Zonghan bandaged Huang Xing's wound and said: "There is no man on the organ, the gatekeeper is a woman who has just come from the countryside, she doesn't know anything, the one who dozed off just now is a maid, so she can sleep." I also came back from outside just now, don't be surprised! ”
Huang Xing said: "I was scared to death just now, I thought I had been ambushed by the Qing army again." ”
The next morning, Xu Zonghan sent Zhuang Liu, a member of the alliance who had just returned, to buy hemostatic medicine on the street. After a while, Zhuang Liu brought back a person in a panic, Huang Xing was surprised when he saw it, this person was none other than Zhao Sheng.
Huang Xing hurriedly asked, "Why did you come here?" Zhao Sheng said: "Last night I had already led 200 candidates from Hong Kong, and this morning I arrived in Guangzhou and went ashore separately, only to know that the uprising had failed. I wanted to go into the city separately, but the city gate was very strictly checked, so I had to return to Hong Kong separately. I got lost and crossed the river, and I happened to meet this comrade just now, who recognized me and led me here. How the Canton Uprising failed, tell me quickly. ”
Huang Xing told Zhao Sheng about the details of the uprising, and while talking, he cried, and finally couldn't cry.
Zhao Sheng also cried, the two of them hugged and cried while talking, and everyone present was moved, wiping their tears one by one, infinitely sad. As he spoke, Huang Xing fainted, and everyone hurriedly looked for medicine to save him, but there was no medicine, so Xu Zonghan could only pour wine into Huang Xing's mouth.
After a while, Huang Xing woke up, and continued to talk to Zhao Sheng, as he spoke, he fainted again, and everyone poured wine into his mouth again.
After Huang Xing woke up, he had to say to Zhao Sheng, and Zhao Sheng persuaded him: "Don't say it first, don't say it first, and talk about it later." Xu Zonghan also persuaded him: "You have shed so much blood, take care of it, and talk about these things later!" ”
Huang Xing ignored Xu Zonghan, and replied to Zhao Sheng: "These people are the elites that our alliance has worked hard to cultivate for decades, and it is because of my improper command that they have lost everything, how can I have the face to see Sun Yat-sen, how can I have the face to see my colleagues in the alliance again." I...... I...... Shameless! As he spoke, he pulled out Zhao Sheng's pistol and was about to cross the river to fight to the death with Qing Gouzi. Zhao Sheng, Xu Zonghan tried his best to stop and snatched his gun, Huang Xing was dizzy for a while and fainted......
At this time, a party member outside the door came to ask Huang Xing's injury, Zhao Sheng discussed with Xu Zonghan and others, and decided to temporarily reply to the internal first that Huang Xing had died in battle, and wanted to use the mouth of the internal spy to let the Qing army know the news in order to protect Huang Xing's life.
On the evening of April 28, Huang Xing quietly dressed up, wearing a gray gown, a top hat, and a beard on his face, and took the Had'an ship to Hong Kong.
There was no single room on the ship, so he could only sit in the hall and pretend to sleep, he pressed the brim of his hat low, and snuggled tightly next to Xu Zonghan. Xu Zonghan was dressed as Mrs. Kuo, hugging Huang Xing while nervously watching the movements around him. From time to time, there were secret agents of the Qing army on the ship, Xu Zonghan blocked Huang Xing with his body, and Zhuang Liu and other revolutionaries secretly covered him.
After arriving in Hong Kong, Huang Xing's wound was already inflamed and festering badly, and one finger seemed to be broken. The revolutionaries had no choice but to take him to the Yali's Hospital for treatment, and the doctor looked at Huang Xing's wound and said, "That finger must be cut off, and according to the regulations, the cut wound must be signed by a relative before the operation can be performed." Xu Zonghan said: "Then hurry up and have surgery, I am his wife, and I will sign." Xu Zonghan signed in the hospital in the name of his wife.
After the failure of the Guangzhou Uprising, the Qing army knew that most of the revolutionaries were hiding in residents' homes, so they went door to door and searched for them. Along the Pearl River and Yonghan Road, as long as you see pedestrians wearing suits or people without braids, they will be arrested immediately.
Li Zhun, the admiral of the Guangdong Navy Division, sent a note to the consuls of various countries that all foreign steamers would be moored at Baietan, surrounded by Qing warships, and that the Qing troops should be allowed to search for the revolutionary party on each steamer. When the Qing army arrived on the warship, as long as they saw people wearing short clothes, they would be strictly searched, carefully interrogated, and immediately arrested if there was any suspicion in the interrogation. The Sanshui-Guangzhou-Kowloon Railway also stopped at the same time, and as long as he saw someone without braids, he would be arrested immediately. For a while, there was a bloody storm and extreme terror, and many ordinary people were arrested by mistake, while many of the revolutionary party who wore short clothes, did not have long braids, and were injured were also arrested.
After Lin Juemin was arrested, Zhang Mingqi and Li Zhun, the admiral of the navy, personally interrogated. Lin Juemin talked eloquently, talking about the world situation and talking about major national affairs, which was reasonable and well-founded, and the conversation lasted for more than two hours, which made Zhang Mingqi and Li Zhun a little admired.
Lin Juemin came up first and sat on the ground, and Zhang Mingqi asked the official to remove the shackles for Lin Juemin and sit on the chair. Li Zhun personally brought pen, ink and paper to Lin Juemin.
Lin Juemin waved his pen, and the words were like a swimming dragon, vigorous and chic. Lin Juemin wrote excitedly, unbuttoned his collar, beat his chest with his hands, and his whole body trembled vigorously. I couldn't write anymore, so I stopped for a while, stabilized my mood, and wrote again with a stroke of my pen. After writing one, Li Zhun picked it up, hurriedly watched it carefully with Zhang Mingqi, and looked at it, and the two of them couldn't help nodding again and again.
Lin Juemin felt nauseous in his heart and wanted to vomit, Li Zhun hurriedly picked up a spittoon and brought it to Lin Juemin. Lin Juemin vomited for a while, felt happy in his heart, and picked up the pen again to write again.
Li Zhun brought over a cup of tea, and Jing Lin Juemin said: "Unexpectedly, Mr. Lin turned out to be a great talent." Have a cup of tea first and take a break before writing. Lin Juemin took the tea bowl handed over by Li Zhun and drank it dry in one gulp. Li Zhun leaned on his waist and lit a bag of cigarettes, handed it over and said, "Smoke another bag of cigarettes and rest." Lin Juemin waved his hand and said, "It's free, I won't suck." ”
After Lin Juemin finished writing, he threw away the pen and stood up again to speak loudly. When he talked about the crisis in China, he beat his chest and persuaded the Qing officials to change their hearts and dedicate themselves to the country, get rid of tyranny, and establish a republic. Only in this way can the country become rich and strong, the Han nationality will be united, and the revolutionaries will be blind to death.
Li Zhun sighed and said: "Such a young man, and a great talent, if he serves the imperial court, how fortunate will the country be?" Lin Juemin shouted: "The husband sacrificed his life for the country, and he also shared internal affairs." Shall I be like you, shameless, and confess a thief as a father? ”
Li Zhun asked again: "You keep talking about revolution, but people have been taken down by us, how can you still revolutionize?" Lin Juemin shook his head, sighed, and said, "I hate me, I have been shot several times in my body, and I can't fight, otherwise, how can you catch me so easily." I have done my best, and I will die without being shaken, but it is really no good for you to live in the country or at home, and in a few years, you will perish in the country, and in a hundred years, you will perish. ”
Zhang Mingqi said: "You are a white-faced scholar, why are you so suspidant? ”
Lin Juemin was furious: "Our revolution is a heroic action, how can we talk about suicide." It is the will of God that this will not be done, but we are already very satisfied in our hearts to awaken our compatriots and let them carry on our legacy and continue to rise up in revolution. How can you know these things when your lust is consumed and your blood is cold!? ”
In the next few days, Lin Juemin did not touch the water and rice, and was quietly waiting for righteousness. At the time of the execution, Lin Juemin calmly looked at the people who saw him off, nodded and smiled, and calmly accepted righteousness.
Guangzhou Uprising, a total of 72 revolutionary fighters were sacrificed, some people collected their remains, buried in Huanghuagang, Guangzhou, and later established a tombstone, the tombstone is entitled "Huanghuagang Seventy-two Martyrs Monument", for future generations to pay homage to the purpose of mourning.
