September 14, 1911. The Gongjin Association and the Literary Society held their third meeting at Liu Gong's residence, No. 10, Xiongchu Building, Wuchang.

The various delegates who participated in the meeting. In accordance with the strict requirements of secret assemblies. One by one, they quietly entered Liu's house. Gong Ren and some security personnel. Keep a close eye on what's going on outside. The lookout post was also released far away. Fortunately, Liu's family is a huge rich man in Wuchang. The people who came were all soldiers. So it didn't attract much attention from the Qing army spies.

This meeting was except for Jiang Yiwu of the Literature Society, who did not arrive because he was stationed in Yuezhou, Hunan. Almost all of the key leaders of both organizations participated. The meeting was chaired by Liu Gong. He was wearing a suit. Removed the braids. Keeping a big quilt head. He looks like a white-faced scholar.

Liu Gong said slowly: "Comrades. Friends of the Communal Association and the Literary Society. In August of this year. Due to the further expansion of the Sichuan Baolu trend. Part of our Hubei New Army is about to be transferred to Sichuan. If they are transferred away at all. It distracts the forces of our revolutionary party in the new army. In this situation. We, the Hubei revolutionaries, must intensify all kinds of preparations before the uprising. Once the time comes. Immediate uprising. To revolt. We still have a lot of urgent work to do. For example, there is no further alliance between the Communist Association and the Literary Society. The command structure has not yet been further established. The plan for the uprising still needs to be worked out. It is also necessary to enlist the support of the National Revolutionary Party. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. I've got you all here today. That's what they do. All right. I won't say more. I would now like to give the floor to Comrade Sun Wu to speak on behalf of the CPC."

Everyone should applaud. Liu Gong looked outside. Quickly waved his hand to stop it. Cai Dafu of the Literature Club laid out the pen and paper. Be prepared to take notes.

Sun Wu stood up. His eyes were blazing. Like lightning. Quickly glanced around everyone. Then he said with great interest: "Comrades of the revolution. Friends of the Communal Association and the Literary Society. Now the revolutionary fervor continues to rise. The Hubei constitutionalists originally begged the Qing government to implement the constitution. After petition activities again and again. Failure after failure. They have completely lost faith in the Qing government. Finally, the goal of 'overthrowing the government' was established. This is actually in line with our revolutionary goals. They went from centrists to our friends. Strengthened our team. Hubei is also the same as Sichuan. The railroad movement broke out. This made the broad masses of people in Hubei hate the traitorous acts of the Qing government even more. This hatred is a great impetus for our uprising. It can also be said to be an important auxiliary force for us. Exorbitant taxes and levies. Natural disasters. It has driven the common people to a situation where they cannot survive. In order to survive. Hungry people all over Hubei. Resist grain and grab rice. There are many incidents of gathering people to ask for relief. This period. There were also big moves in the uprisings of the local congresses. December 7 last year. Wen Chaozhong defeated the Qing army. Enter the county seat of Qianjiang. The four provinces of Sichuan, Hunan, Guizhou and Hubei were shaken. I think. We Hubei extend in all directions. It is both a way to live. It's also a dead end. If we command it properly. It will be able to quickly get the support of the whole country and develop to the whole country. If not properly planned. It may also attract a siege by Qing troops across the country. We have to be well planned. Don't move blindly lightly. Preparations are now largely complete. Especially Comrade Liu Gong. Generous donations. There are also Deng Yulin and Comrade Gongren who are trying to raise funds. This one will be today. It was convened at the critical juncture of the revolution. I hope you will have a good discussion on the many matters of the union. We only have further unions. in order to share the same hatred. in order to twist the scattered forces into a rope. in order to deal the most powerful blow to the Qing government."

Everyone nodded yes. There were expressions of joy on their faces. But what everyone is most concerned about is the substance of unity. Sun Wu has not yet expressed his position on the substantive issue. Sun Wu talked about the good situation for a while. Finally got to the real point. He said: "Today. President Liu of the Association is also there. Representatives of the Literary Society are there. Let them say what they think."

He pushed the ball to Liu Gonghe and the representative of the Literary Society.

Liu Fuji stood up. Simply and neatly said: "Comrades of the revolution. In the past, our literary society and the Mutual Advancement Association were passive cooperation. Fight for fame. Fight for profit. Fight for personnel. Now the crucing moment of the uprising has arrived. It's time to actively cooperate. I recommend. What a literary club? The Advancement Society. Set aside for now. We are all revolutionaries. Fight to the death with the Qing Dynasty."

Liu Fuji's suggestion. The comrades couldn't help but clapped their applause softly. Indicates maximum support. Liu Gong hurriedly shook his hand at everyone. He pointed out again.

Everyone stopped applauding. Liu Gong stood up and smiled. Thank you all. Liu Gong cleared his throat slightly. Everyone saw that the president of the Association was about to speak. They were all watching him quietly. See what he says. Liu Gong said in a steady tone: "I firmly support Liu Fuji's suggestion. Not only the original group name will be canceled. It's in the name of the original individual. It will also be invalidated. Be like me. I was promoted to be the Governor of Hubei. Liu Ying is the deputy governor. I don't know what Liu Ying means. But I'm announcing it now. In the name of my Grand Governor. Give up now."

Liu Gong said this. Don't go any further. Then I glanced at everyone. It's like watching everyone's reactions.

The hearts of the people were shocked. Especially the representatives of the Communist Party. The shaking of the heart is greater. I don't know what Liu Gong meant by this.

Liu Gong gasped slightly. Then calmly said, "My purpose is one. The name of the individual is subordinated to the overall situation of the uprising. All our interests are subject to the overall situation of the uprising."

The crowd suddenly responded with soft applause. This high profile of Liu Gong. A round of applause to show admiration for him. Liu Gong hurriedly pointed outside again. Stopped everyone.

Wang Xianzhang is the vice president of the Literary Society. At this time, he also stood up and said, "I will also announce it now. I. The vice president of the literary club is now giving up. What about the purpose. That is, to be subordinated to the overall situation of the uprising."

Everyone also cast a praising gaze on Wang Xianxian's statement.

Sun Wu closed his eyes. Looks very unhappy.

Everyone excitedly discussed Liu Gong and Wang Xianxian's speeches for a while. Yang Yuru stood up and said, "Just now, Chairman Liu and Chairman Wang have shown that they can sacrifice their personal interests for the sake of the revolution. With this kind of thinking. With this high profile. What is the gap between our association and the literary club? There is no estrangement. People are united. Tarzan shifts. As long as we join hands with the Literary Society. The revolution will succeed. But then again. Birds don't fly without a head. Man walks without a head. Comrade Tan Renfeng said: 'Responsibility can be shared. The powers of affairs must be unified.' I suggest. We also have to choose a manager. in order to command everything in the event of an uprising."

Yang Yuru's words. It has also attracted everyone's great attention. There was a lot of talk about it. Each man speaks his own opinion. After discussing it for a while. Sun Wu stood up and said, "Yang Yuru's words are very right. Thousands of people in charge. One person in charge. There is no one who has the power and authority to command everything. That still does not guarantee the success of the uprising. I recommend. It's better to let Liu Gong be the commander-in-chief."

Sun Wu's words had just been finished. Liu Gong was the first to object. He waved his hands and said, "No. No way. In my personal ability. It is difficult to assume the responsibility of the leader of the uprising. Again. The Communal Association and the Literary Society need to be united in sincerity. In order to avoid suspicion. I'm still determined not to be the leader of the uprising."

Liu Gong's statement. Others you look at me. I'll look at you. No one said anything more. No one has come up with a new candidate.

There was silence for a while. Ju Zheng stood up and said, "You see if this will work. The stakes are high in this uprising. A strong and prominent figure must be called in to lead this uprising. I recommend. Is it possible to let Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren or Tan Renfeng of the Central Shanghai Alliance preside over the plan? They are both old comrades of the League. He also has a wealth of experience in struggle. Again. He was neither a member of the Communist Association nor a member of the Literary Society. Save others gossiping. As for how the name is decided. They'll talk about it when they're coming."

Just finished speaking. Sun Wu first said loudly: "This is extremely beneficial to the revolution. I agree." Some people also said: "Agreed."" I agree."

Liu Gong said: "I also agree. To say how to ask for the law. I'll see the light to seal the telegram please. Or go to a letter please no. It's hard to tell. Is it possible to send two representatives to Shanghai. Invite them to come to Wuhan as soon as possible to preside over the big event. Let's see how it goes."

Everyone agreed. Liu Fuji stood up and said, "In my opinion. The current situation is urgent. If you send someone to Shanghai and ask someone from the League to be the leader. I'm afraid I'll lose too much time." As soon as I heard there were objections. People are talking again.

Deng Yulin whispered to Sun Wu: "Why do you want someone to invite in Shanghai. The Confederacy was sent by the Alliance. He's an old comrade of the League. He also has rich experience in military struggle. How nice it would be to have him as a leader."

Sun Wu's nose snorted and said, "I don't think this kid can do it. A lot of talking. Talking sometimes doesn't look at the occasion and the doorway. Is he just a little liaison? How could he carry such a heavy burden?" Deng Yulin said: "I don't think there is anything wrong with him talking. Especially this time to engage in funding. He didn't put in a lot of effort. And his sister Tang Qingying was also injured."

Sun Wu shook his head and whispered, "You, you. The mind is too simple. The human heart is separated from the belly. You know what people think. Let's take the jewels he made. How much he benefited. You know what."

Deng Yulin hurriedly said to Sun Wu: "I dare to promise. Gong Ren is not such a person." Sun Wu criticized Deng Yulin again, saying: "Do you still use me to say some things. Gotta use your brain. If you let the public tenacity take power. To you and to me. What are the benefits. Don't always talk to outsiders......"

Deng Yulin didn't understand Sun Wu's words for a while. I didn't understand and asked, "If the alliance in Shanghai will come to someone. Isn't it the same as an outsider?" Sun Wu whispered to Deng Yulin: "Shanghai doesn't know when people will come. It's just that someone came. I don't know what we're doing here for a while. It's not listening to us yet. It's not the same with male toughness. He understands what we're going to do here...... Got it?"

Now Deng Yulin understood what Sun Wu meant. He shook his head slightly and said, "You can't be so narrow-minded. That's not good for the revolution. I think though. Gong Ren is a good comrade."

Sun Wu said to Deng Yulin a little mockingly: "You, you. It's still early."

At the meeting, it was decided to elect Yang Yuru. Ju Zheng and the two went to Shanghai to invite people from the Alliance. and decided to allocate 1000 yuan. Acquisition of pistols. He also sent Li Qingfu to Yuezhou, Hunan Province to tell Jiang Yiwu about the content of the meeting. and asked him to hurry up and join the uprising.

These frequent activities against the Hubei revolutionaries. As the Governor of Huguang. Hubei Military Staff Officer Tie Zhong. Zhang Biao, the eighth town and the commander of the Hubei army, has already heard of it. After they consulted. It was decided to use the method of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle. In addition to transferring part of the new army into Sichuan. and sent the new army of Wuchang to other places one after another. to disperse the forces of the revolutionary party.

After the union of the Communists and the Literary Society. For this case. The necessary deployment was quickly adjusted: the 3rd Battalion of the 29th Bid stationed in the Yunyang area of Hubei. Fan Jingchun, a revolutionary representative, contacted the comrades of the camp. Pay attention to responding to the uprising on the spot; After the 31st bid entered Sichuan. Pay attention to contact Wuchang. Once the time comes. can revolt locally; The 32nd 1st Battalion of the Irrikawa. Liaison with 31 bids in Sichuan; The 2nd Battalion of the 32nd Bid stationed in Yichang, Hubei Province, and the 3rd Battalion of the 32nd Bid stationed in Shinan, Hubei Province, paid attention to liaising with the 1st Battalion of the 41st Bid stationed in Yichang and the local revolutionary comrades; The 1st Battalion of the 41st Bid stationed in Yichang should act in concert with the 2nd Battalion and the 3rd Battalion of the 32nd Bid; Ma 8 is in charge of Huang Weihan and Liu Bin. When the time comes, pay attention to responding to the Wuchang Uprising; Send Xiang Bingkun back to Shi Nan. Strengthen the ties between the army and the party. Jiang Yiwu did not return to Wuchang before. His duties are temporarily shared by Wang Xianzhang and Liu Fuji.

These deployments. Most of them were executed before the Wuchang Uprising. General organizational preparations were made for the Wuchang uprising.

Wuchang Uprising. It's ready to fly. Had to send. And the leaders of the armed uprising, the specific plans for the armed uprising, have not yet been decided. This has seriously affected the operation. After Ju Zheng and Yang Yuru went to Shanghai. Comrade Wuchang held another small meeting on September 23 at Liu Gong's residence at No. 10 Xiongchu Building. The main research is on the question of leaders. The meeting was well discussed. It was decided to take Jiang Yiwu as the military commander-in-chief. management of military orders; Sun Wu is Minister of Armaments. management of military and political affairs; Liu Gong is the prime minister. Governing Civil. Major Matters. It will be handled by three people together with everyone.

The meeting also decided the next day. Convene a general meeting to discuss the election of the government and the plan of the uprising.

September 24th. Hubei revolutionaries held a meeting at Hu Zushun's house, No. 11, Rouge Lane, Wuchang. In addition to the main people of the previous times. Representatives of various standard camps also participated. The gendarmerie Peng Chufan served as the chief of the guard. The lookout post was also released far away.

The day's meeting is at 10 a.m. Gong Ren and some revolutionaries at 11 o'clock. I arrived at Tongxing Restaurant. Gong Ren and Tang Qingying asked for two side dishes. A jug of wine. While drinking as a cover, he was waiting for Deng Yulin to come back as soon as possible. Good to hear about the concrete plans for the uprising a little earlier. It was at this time. There have been several Qing army spies on this street. There are also a lot more police officers patrolling than usual.

Tang Qingying suffered two gunshot wounds last time. Thankfully, I didn't hurt my bones. After this period of recuperation in the bookstore. It's basically healed. Now she is like a grass that has just sprouted in spring. Get active. Gong Ren drinking wine. And Tang Qingying just couldn't drink because of her injury. Just eating the dishes. Gong Ren was happy in his heart. Ask her, "After I left Guangzhou. You didn't make things difficult for you."

Tang Qingying pouted. Say, "You think of me as something. We are revolutionary comrades. I'm making it difficult for her to do anything. Intimacy can't be intimacy. Now we're all in this relationship. You're still talking about this." Talking. She patted her chest.

Gong Ren knew what she was referring to in the letter of guarantee. Thought. complained that the funds were too scarce at that time. I also blame myself for not being strong-willed. Only then did Tang Qingying grab the handle. She had that guarantee. It's like having the Shang Fang Sword. I really jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it.

Gong Ren said to Tang Qingying again: "Since this is the case. Leave that guarantee to me for safekeeping." Tang Qingying immediately became alert. Ask, "Why?"

Gong Ren said, "You are reckless. Maybe when it drops. I'm more careful than you. Better than you save." Tang Qingying glared at Gong Ren and said, "Don't underestimate us women. At the time of saving this. More important than our lives. How can you just throw it away. I see if you have bad intentions. Do you want to destroy the incriminating evidence?"

Gong Ren smiled softly. Thought. This little girl is too fine. And she can't make a cheap profit.

Tang Qingying saw that Gong Ren stopped talking. Know that you guessed right. He said to Gong Ren again: "You are carrying Sister Xipin's jade pendant on your body. Carrying your guarantee again. Don't you think these two things offend the gram. Simply. You give me the pendant for safekeeping. I'm more careful than you. I can't lose it."

Gong Ren thought to himself. Isn't this the way others are treated? Hurry up and say, "How can I trouble you. I've gotten used to it over the years. If you don't carry the jade pendant of the western product on your body. I feel uncomfortable."

Tang Qingying hurried: "Bah, bah, look at it. Look at it. This is called lotus root disconnection. Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. I can't complain that you're so kind. You're going to help me save this and that. It turns out that you are a weasel and you are not kind enough to give the chickens a New Year's greeting." Tang Qingying said. He pouted again and got angry.

Gong Ren hurriedly explained to Tang Qingying: "You know. My love for Nishipin is genuine. She saved my life again. You were betrothed to me. How can you forget about her all at once?"

Tang Qingying asked, "Then why did you write this letter of guarantee?" Gong Ren said: "I really don't want to write. You forced me to write it." Tang Qingying was so angry that she scolded: "It's been a long time. So you're hypocritical. It's really a good idea to use people to get ahead. You don't need to be back. Really. I...... I ......" said. He took out the letter of guarantee from his bosom. Took a look. I just want to tear it off. Thought about it. With tears in her eyes. Say, "I'll keep it for now. See if I don't look for your leader to ......"

The two of them are having a lot of trouble over emotional matters. At this time, a suspicious-looking person suddenly entered the bookstore opposite. The man was absentmindedly picking up a book. Take a look at the east. Look to the west. The waist is still bulging.

Gong Ren can be seen at a glance. That's the weapon. Hurriedly glanced at Tang Qingying. Tang Qingying whispered to Gong Ren: "Go to our house to make trouble. See I don't pinch my neck. Pinch him out." Gong Ren whispered, "Calm down. Stay in Aoyama in. Don't be afraid of no firewood. Jars and jars in a bookstore. Let them smash whatever they want."

Soon. Two people in civilian clothes also came in the Tongxing Restaurant. They asked for four dishes and a pot of wine. Eating and drinking in the mouth. But the eyes look from time to time. He was carefully looking at the New Army soldiers who were drinking. The runners served soup on each table. The spoon handle of each soup was aimed at the two suspicious-looking men.

Tang Qingying looked at these two people awkwardly. Pick up your glass and swing it. Wander over. His tongue hardened and he said, "Where is this?" How did I see two dogs. Two Rippy Dogs ......" as he spoke. And he leaned towards one of them. He poured all the wine on the man at once.

The man was so panicked that he wiped the wine off his body. While yelling at Tang Qingying angrily: "Where to sprinkle. Drunk isn't it?" Gong Ren hurriedly went up and said with a smiling face: "Look at my sister. I don't know how to drink alcohol and I drink strongly. Drink and drink and get drunk. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Quickly wipe the wine on the man's body with his sleeve.

The man cried out viciously, "Don't look at who I am. It's a mess now. Can this be done? It's not that cheap. See if I don't get you to the police station."

The male tenacy rubbed this side. Tang Qingying swayed up with the wine glass again. And I'm going to pour it on those two spies. Where did the two people hide. Tang Qingying went crookedly. The mouth shouted: "Drunk. Drunk ......".

was so anxious that Gong Ren hurried over to pull Tang Qingying. Pull it over and just let go. Tang Qingying slanted and slammed into the two spies again. The spy who had been spilled wine was in a hurry. After coming over, he took a few glances towards Tang Qingying. But it's weird. Obviously it should have hit her. But I just can't beat her.

Another agent advised the agent, "That's bad luck. Ran into a drunken woman. What reasoning with a drunk. We can't afford to provoke and hide. Walk. It's really a bad day. The world is going down." Talking. Quickly pull the spy away.

Several of the New Army soldiers couldn't help but laugh. Tang Qingying rushed to the door. He spat at the two spies behind their backs and said, "Phew. Two vicious dogs."

Until more than 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Deng Yulin is wearing a robe and coat. Hurried back. Several comrades acted as if no one knew him. Waited for a while. only to sneak into Deng Yulin's house one by one. When Gong Ren and Tang Qingying also arrived at Deng Yulin's house. I have seen several comrades of the New Army asking Deng Yulin this and that.

Gong Ren interjected and asked impatiently, "Boss Deng. How's it going?"

Deng Yulin picked up a water glass. After drinking boiled water for a while, he said, "It just so happens that you are all here. Let me tell you a little bit about the situation. The date of the uprising is basically set. That is, on August 15 of the lunar calendar and October 6 of the solar calendar, a plan for an uprising was also set at this meeting.

Gong Ren was shocked. Hurriedly asked: "What happened to the Nanhu artillery team?"

Deng Yulin said: "Mei Qingfu, a soldier of the 3rd Battalion of the Nanhu Artillery Corps. Jiang Xijiu asked for leave and prepared to go home. The good brothers in the same shed set them off with wine. One of them was happy. I drank a little more. At this time. Platoon commander Liu Buyun suddenly came to the shed. Reprimand them for not drinking alcohol. It should be severely punished. I also want to hit people. This caused the outrage of the soldiers. A few people scolded Liu Buyun. Scolding and scolding. And it started. Liu Buyun was anxious. Pull out the gun and fire the threat. This caused even more anger among the soldiers. Soldiers Huo Dianchen, Zhao Chuping and others were hot-headed for a while. Rushed to the arsenal . Dragged out the cannon. Loaded with cannonballs. Prepare for a riot. Due to the lack of prior ventilation. Not many people agreed. Huo Dianchen, Zhao Chuping and others had no choice but to escape. After the 8th town commander Zhang Biao got the report. Immediately ordered Ma Biao to lead Yu Hualong to send troops to suppress it. and hunt down the fleeing soldiers."

Gong Ren asked again: "What will happen in the future?"

Deng Yulin said: "Meng Facheng, a soldier of the Nanhu Artillery Brigade, reported to Sun Wu what happened. Say that the situation is serious. Only an immediate uprising. in order to save the comrades of the Nanhu artillery team. But the meeting was adjourned. Most of the comrades are gone. Those who are not gone can't make decisions. It's just at this time. Liu Fuji is back for something. After hearing about it. After thinking about it for a while, he said. The stakes are high for the uprising. Concerted action should be made. The whole body should not be moved by a single shot. It's better to be patient for a while."

Gong Ren sighed and said, "Not only did the Nanhu artillery team have an accident. I think something is going to happen here."

Deng Yulin asked, "What's going on?"

Gong Ren told him about the appearance of Qing army spies in the Tongxing Restaurant and the bookstore opposite. Deng Yulin said: "You know what's going on." Gong Ren said, "I don't know."

Deng Yulin said angrily: "How else to say that the newspaper is a powerful propaganda media. It's really Cheng Ye Xiao He. Defeat is also Xiao He. They just focus on the news effect. We've got all our secrets out." Gong Ren hurriedly asked, "What did the newspaper say?" Deng Yulin said: "A newspaper in Shanghai said. A photo studio in Hankow. The Tongxing Restaurant in Wuchang is a secret organ of the revolutionary party. Dedicated to the development of members. Secret gatherings. Possession of weapons and so on. Wait a minute. Say it with a nose and an eye. Can the Qing army send spies to reconnoitre."

Gong Ren was taken aback. Say, "Aren't we all exposed?" Deng Yulin said: "Who said it wasn't." Gong Ren asked, "What should I do then?" Deng Yulin said decisively: "Since this is the case. Retreat immediately. Retreat to another institution. In such periods. Be careful in everything."

Deng Yulin, Gong Ren, Tang Qingying, etc. That night, he was withdrawn from the Tongxing restaurant and bookstore.

The next day. Qing army spies, police and gendarmes came to search the Tongxing restaurant and bookstore. I didn't expect that the house was already empty. They searched carefully. Nothing was found.
