In the Tongxing Restaurant, where the revolutionary backbone secretly met in the past, Liu Gong, Cai Jimin, Deng 'Yu'lin', Xiong Bingkun, Wu Xinghan, Gong Ren, Tang Qingying and others set up a banquet to see Zhang Zhenwu off, and Xiong Bingkun was also accompanied by Zhang Zhenwu.

Everyone sat silently, everyone was in a melancholy mood, and no one wanted to talk more. That is, it has only been a little more than a year, at that time, people in the restaurant were full of 'exciting' emotions, and now there are few people in the restaurant, and the 'spirit' is miserable, so many familiar comrades-in-arms are either sacrificed, or locked up in prison or on the run.

How can everyone be happy with this scene......

Liu Gong first broke everyone's dullness and said: "Everyone raised their heads, I think it looks like the wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and the strength of the strong man will not return!" We are not King Zhao to send Meng Ke, and Brother Zhenwu is not going to assassinate King Qin, he is going to the capital to be an official, everyone should be happy! ”

Others also encouraged each other and said, "Yes, yes, you should be happy!" ”

Zhang Zhenwu snorted, and then scolded: "Bullshit! Could it be that my Hubei military will only be Yuan Shikai's adviser? You think I'm willing to go, Li Yuanhong really can't help me, so he threw my thorn to Yuan Shikai. What kind of heart does this Li Yuanhongan have, you don't know? If I'm gone, he'll have peace of mind, and no one will dare to confront him face to face. ”

Gongren said: "I think Brother Zhenwu just got out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den!" Yuan Shikai, this person, everyone will not know, betrayed the Wuxu Rebellion, suppressed the Boxers, and formed a sworn party of the Beiyang Army. In this Wuchang Uprising, on the one hand, he used military strength as the backing to suppress the Hubei military and government to negotiate peace, and on the other hand, he took advantage of the independence of the provinces to promote the republic, asserted the might of the Northern Expedition, and forced the Qing government to give up power to him. After the establishment of the republic, he used the "force" of the Qing Dynasty to abdicate as a bargaining chip to force Sun Yat-sen to go into the wilderness. This Yuan Shikai is ten times more hateful, hateful, and cunning than Li Yuanhong, I think that Brother Zhenwu is more than auspicious to go to Beijing, according to me, it is better not to go. ”

Zhang Zhenwu picked up a glass of wine and said, "Brother Gongren, how can I not know. It may really be the same as Brother Gongren said, after drinking this wine, there will be no next time. Now I really feel that the future is 'confused', and I am confused, so I can only take one step at a time. Good! Brothers, I will take this glass of wine, and it can be regarded as my compensation to everyone, if there is anything that has offended before, please bear with me. ”

Everyone chimed in and said, "Where, where." ”

Cai Jimin, then director of the Military Affairs Department, stood up with everyone with a wine glass and said, "Not only did Brother Zhenwu drink this time, but we also drank this time and didn't have a next time." By next year, I don't know how many people will be able to meet here? We were good friends when we were alive, and we are good friends in the 'underworld'. Drink, everyone—" He craned his neck and drank a glass of wine.

Everyone drank this glass of wine to the bottom of the day.

Wu Xinghan scolded: "I knew today, why bother in the beginning." At the beginning, before the Wuchang Uprising was held, Peng Chufan, Liu Fuji, and Yang Hongsheng had already generously surrendered. In the Yangxia War, Xu Zhaobin and Ma Rong died heroically, and the backbone of our revolutionary army sacrificed thousands of people. Now that the war is no longer fought, our revolutionary army was killed by Li Yuanhong by one or two thousand, and even Jiang Yiwu and Zhang Tingfu were also implicated. Tell me, what kind of world is this? I don't think we will have a few days to live if we don't resist. ”

Deng 'Yu' Lin also said angrily: "While we still have a little military power now, we can still control part of the army, hurry up and turn it back!" If it's too late, I heard that Yuan Shikai is going to carry out a major disarmament of Li Yuanhong, once it is implemented, I am afraid that we will have no army in our hands at all, and we can only be tied up. ”

Everyone scolded again, scolding Li Yuanhong for changing from a Li Bodhisattva to a Li butcher, and scolding Sun Wu for acting as a tiger and harming the revolution.

Liu Gong said heavily: "I can't sleep at night, and I often wonder, why did the revolution happen like this? Now we have finally realized that the primary issue of the revolution is the question of power, whether the revolutionary power is in the hands of the real revolutionaries. When the Wuchang Revolution was successful, we should not have ceded power to Li Yuanhong, because since he became the governor, he appointed a large number of old military officers, and completely deviated from the direction of the revolution step by step. After the fall of Hanyang, Le Yuanhong fled, and we should immediately take over the power, but we were weak, hesitant, and lost the best opportunity. Jiang Yiwu has served as the commander-in-chief of nursing, and it is only right that all of us should support him, and there should be no partisan strife to exclude him and oppose him. Well, now that we have become Li Yuanhong's fish 'meat', and he is actually a sword, we are really too passive. ”

Gong Ren said: "As the story goes, the wolf and the bear each argued about the length of a piece of sugar cane, and then the fox came and said, 'I'll give you a share.' In the end, the wolf and the bear were given a small sugarcane head, which was considered to be a relatively successful distribution. ”

Zhang Zhenwu said hatefully: "I hate the party for fighting against each other, fighting each other like fire and water, deceiving each other, flying short and long, the Communist Advancement Association and the Literary Society are both revolutionaries, why do they attack each other, make you live and die, cause the snipe and the clam to fight, and the fisherman to benefit." We should not think that if our revolution succeeds, everything will be fine, I think our revolution is still early, and it will not work if it is not revolutionized several times, and the bloodshed will not be more than ten thousand. At the beginning, we hated why we didn't behead Li Yuanhong for public display, and the next target of our revolution was Li Yuanhong and his bureaucrats. ”

Gong Ren said: "I think we should not be too pessimistic, as long as Sun Yat-sen is here, as long as the Three People's Principles are there, as long as we revolutionaries are here, we can re-establish the stage and sing another opera!" Is it because we have more people or more people than Li Yuanhong? I don't believe I can't cure him! ”

Tang Qingying pulled out his scimitar and waved it in the air and said, "Everyone just nod, I will cut him off tonight, and then hang his head on the head of the city to give us the sacrificial flag of the revolutionary martyrs." ”

When everyone heard this, they all felt relieved, and they all drank and ate the food in large gulps, and the wine was even more sorrowful, and the water was more flowing when the knife was cut off, and after a while, they all got drunk.

On August 9, 1912, Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei, head of the Hubei General Regiment, first arrived in Beijing. On the evening of August 15, Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei attended a dinner at the Liuguo Hotel in Dong'jiao' Minxiang, Beijing. At the banquet, Yuan Shikai praised Zhang Zhenwu greatly, and when he left, he took Zhang Zhenwu's hand again, and continued to raise Zhang Zhenwu and said: "Hubei military circles, who doesn't know Hubei Sanwu!" Jiang Yiwu rebelled against the law, Sun Wu resigned due to illness, and only you Zhang Zhenwu are left. You came to Beijing, and I am very fortunate to be in the Republic of China! The Beiyang Army is very fortunate! The people are very fortunate! I hope to show your wisdom and talent and contribute to our Republic of China! ”

Zhang Zhenwu couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion when he saw that Yuan Shikai was so important to him, and said: "For the sake of the Republic of China, for the revolution, and for the people, I should do my best to serve the country." Yuan Shikai patted Zhang Zhenwu's shoulder admiringly and nodded again and again.

Yuan Shikai whispered to Zhang Zhenwu: "I don't know why Gongren didn't come, I heard that he also made a great contribution to the Wuchang Uprising. Zhang Zhenwu was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked: "I don't know why President Yuan still knows Gongren?" He is also an ordinary captain of the Guangdong death squad. ”

Yuan Shikai smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "It's not just acquaintance, we are old friends." Not only the Wuchang Uprising, but also the uprising led by Mr. Zhongshan without him, he was very good at fighting. At that time, on the small station in Tianjin, a battalion without him made a face for my new army and added glory, and I don't know if there is one in the six towns of Beiyang now! It's a pity that he didn't come, what a pity, what ......a pity."

Liu, who was next to him, squinted his eyes and listened to Yuan Shikai's words, and whispered slyly: "The president misses Gongren, and he is worried about his life......

Yuan Shikai asked his godson Duan Zhigui to protect Zhang Zhenwu and drove back to the apartment, Zhang Zhenwu held Yuan Shikai's hand tightly and was reluctant to let go.

Zhang Zhenwu got into the car, only to find that there were only himself and Fang Wei in the carriage, and the two sat silently on the car, relatively speechless. The carriage drove forward lonely, and all I could hear was the "click" of the horses' hooves on the ground and the sound of the horses snorting from time to time, and dozens of mighty soldiers surrounded the carriage.

When he arrived at the front 'door', it was already more than 10 o'clock, Duan Zhigui asked the carriage to stop, he opened the 'door' of the car, took out the military order from his arms, and said to Zhang Zhenwu: "I'm sorry, Zhang Zhenwu, I have an order from above to arrest you!" ”

Although Zhang Zhenwu drank a few more glasses, his mind was still quite clear, and he shouted to Duan Zhigui: "Duan Zhigui, what are you kidding, I am Zhang Zhenwu, I was invited by your godfather!" ”

Duan Zhigui turned around and shouted at his subordinates: "Execute the order!" Suddenly, dozens of Beiyang soldiers surrounded them in black pressure, and the muzzles of black 'holes' and 'holes' pushed the bullets into the load. Several soldiers rushed into the car and dragged Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei off the carriage, and the Beiyang soldiers tied them up.

Zhang Zhenwu shouted: "In the land of the national capital, you dare to rob people, I am Zhang Zhenwu, you can't be lawless!" ”

They escorted Zhang Zhenwu to the General Law Enforcement Office of the Military Administration of Xidan Pailou for interrogation. Zhang Zhenwu shouted all the way: "I am Zhang Zhenwu, what law have you violated, whose order did you follow to arrest me, see if President Yuan can spare you?" ”

Director of Law Enforcement Lu Jianzhang said to Zhang Zhenwu: "Don't you want to know who gave the order to arrest you?" Let me tell you that this is an order issued by Li Yuanhong, vice president of the Republic of China. He immediately took out Li Yuanhong's order and read it out: "Investigate the rebellious Zhang Zhenwu, form a party with dictatorship, be unruly, embezzle public funds, squander them in vain, go to Shanghai to buy guns, incite the school regiment, intend to riot, sabotage the republic, and commit a notorious crime. ”

Zhang Zhenwu shouted loudly: "I'm afraid this is a fabrication, doesn't President Yuan know about it?" Lu Jianzhang took out President Yuan's warrant and said: "President Yuan's instructions, what President Li said is true, carry it out!" ”

At this time, Zhang Zhenwu knew that all these 'yin' schemes, on the surface, were committed by Li Yuanhong's wicked people, but secretly it was Yuan Shikai who '' everything, and couldn't help but shake his head, sighed and said: "I can't complain about justice, this Yuan Shikai is ten times more hateful, hateful, and cunning than Li Yuanhong, and today I can be regarded as having learned it." Pity me, I thought he was a good guy just now! Poor thing! Poor thing! It's come to this, the eldest husband will die, there's nothing to say. ”

During the interrogation, the presidential palace called him three times, urging him to carry out the execution quickly.

At 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, the executioner was about to make a move, Zhang Zhenwu refused to be tied up, and had to face the executioner calmly. Lu Jianzhang had no choice but to agree to Zhang Zhenwu's request.

Zhang Zhenwu faced the muzzle of the black 'hole' and 'hole', sneered slightly, and said stupidly: "I, Zhang Zhenwu, have gone to the 'underworld', and I also want revolution, and I must fight to the end with you people who oppose revolution." He raised his hand, raised his arms and shouted, "Long live the Republic!" "Long live the revolution!" "Long live the League, the Communal Association, and the Literary Society!" and Fang Wei drank a bullet and died. Book. Ha. Ha. Small. Say. net
