Chapter 67: Repercussions

Lao Wu Tou, who sells breakfast on Chengdu South Street, got up early in the morning as usual and began to work on his small business. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info In the past few months, the whole Sichuan has been in chaos, I heard that what is the Baolu Comrades Association, in the rebellion of the Qing Dynasty, Chengdu Mansion is three times a day, and the people are panicking.

In his eyes, what kind of road protection comrades will be, it was not those gentry who instigated it, and donated money to build the railway back then, who didn't know that it was all done by those gentry and old men? A small family like himself can't even eat, who has the heart to get that? I really don't understand how it came to be like this.

Although the Qing Dynasty has always been angry and resentful, it has never been so chaotic now. Now, even the gentry have begun to rebel, and two days ago I heard that many places have been occupied by the revolutionaries. At this time, even he, a small citizen in the market, knew that the Qing Dynasty was coming to an end.

But what does all this have to do with me, I can still live my own little life.

Although the gunshots rang out again yesterday evening, the whole Chengdu Mansion is now panicking. But the life of this family has to go on, and the business has to go on. I just don't know how the business is today, but when I think of the war disaster that happened just yesterday, I don't think it's good. After supporting his buddy Xiao Wuzi to open the door of the store and prepare for business, he was busy going to the back kitchen to check.

When he opened the door of the store and was about to move the tables and chairs outside, the little five sons were stunned by the scene he saw in front of him. There were a few soldiers lying next to the gate of his house, and when he looked up, the entire South Street was full of people, and the bluestone slabs under the eaves of the houses on both sides of the street were densely packed with soldiers. The soldiers all looked young, wrapped in a blanket with no end in sight, one by one.

"Ouch, my mother!" The guy couldn't help but scream.

"What howl you?" Old Wu Tou glared at the man.

"Quick, come out and have a look." Xiao Wuzi exclaimed.

Old Wu Tou is usually kind and kind, and he doesn't care about the fuss of his guys. Suspiciously, he walked to the door, looked at it, and then retreated again and again, almost sitting on the ground. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, came back to his senses and made sure that all this was true, and then rushed out the door, and looked fixedly.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Old Wu Tou didn't know what to say. I've lived for more than 50 years, when have I ever encountered such a strange thing? If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed it?

"Oh my God!" The old woman Wu Liu, who ran out with the old Wu head, shouted with a crying voice.

Seeing several soldiers next to his door who were awakened by the sound of Xiao Wuzi opening the door and Wu Liu's exclamation, Old Wu Tou panicked, and when he was panicking that these soldiers took the opportunity to find fault and extort, under his incredible gaze, these soldiers silently packed up their blankets.

At this moment, a young man who looked like an officer ran towards the door of Lao Wu Tou's shop, and before Lao Wu Tou could react, this officer stood in front of Lao Wu Tou and stood and saluted.

"I'm sorry uncle, I'm blocking you from doing business." The officer who came over said to Old Wu Tou in an apologetic tone.

After making sure that the soldier was talking to him, Lao Wu nodded busily, and he couldn't say anything in surprise. Until this officer left, Old Wu Tou still felt a little incredible, he had never seen such a kind officer and soldier.

At this moment, a sharp whistle sounded, and the soldier stood up as if reflexively, and after sorting out his equipment, he quickly sorted out the queue. It was Huang Yuying's regiment that entered the city overnight last night, and after dealing with the Qing troops in the city, because of the late night, they could not find a barracks that could be stationed, and they were limited by strict discipline, so they could only lie down on the street and spend the night. As the regiment commander, Huang Yuying stayed with his soldiers as a matter of course.

To say that this street is also in the position of a traffic artery in the city of Chengdu, although they live in some ordinary people's homes, but in the past, when this street passed by the army, they were not unseen, and it was common for extortion and looting. It's a ghost today.

By the time the soldiers had packed up, almost every household had come out, and all of them looked at this army with a new eye. It wasn't until the neighbors got to know each other that this was the revolutionary party that had entered the city last night.

At the same time, in a mansion not far from South Street, Zhang Lan, a well-known gentry from Sichuan, also stood at the gate of his house and silently watched everything in front of him.

Zhang Lan, who has been returning to Sichuan to devote himself to the cause of education since returning to Japan after studying in Japan, has also exerted all his strength in this road protection movement. For this decadent Qing Dynasty, Zhang Lan has long been disappointed in his heart. In the past few months, the situation in Sichuan has changed, Chengdu has been shocked three times a day, and I have heard about the revolution in Yunnan and Hubei intermittently these days, but I didn't expect that so soon, the revolutionary army from Yunnan has already hit the city of Chengdu. Just last night, it had already entered the city.

Seeing the army with strict discipline in front of him, Zhang Lan had various thoughts in his heart at this time, what kind of army is this? And what kind of party is this? With deep doubts and excitement, Zhang Lan walked to the street where the morning sun was rising, and he wanted to feel all this for himself.

At this time, the notice of Zhao Erfeng, the governor of Sichuan in the Qing Dynasty, had already been plastered all over the streets and alleys. It was a carefully written proclamation, like the farewell of an old friend, announcing the former ruler's recognition of Sichuan's independence and his expectations for the new regime in warm and affectionate terms.

"The people of Fuchuan wanted to resist the government by fighting for the road, and they carried out it violently, regardless of death. In February and February, the provinces declared their independence, and the Sichuan Provincial Government, which was splendid and glorious, was also established today.

The purpose of the Communist Party of China is based on the axioms of the world, and the humanitarian organization of the republican constitution is to consolidate the Chinese nation in the world, so it will be observed by the descendants of 70 million people in Wuchuan. ”

One news after another circulated in the streets and alleys of Chengdu, and the emotions of the people changed from shock to joy to reassurance. After all, the performance of these revolutionary armies was seen by a large part of the population this morning.

Since the beginning of the Northern Expedition, Xiao Mubai has personally sat in the headquarters. In the course of several days, the telegrams of various units reached Wuhua Mountain without interruption, and the codes became reports one after another in the sound of "didi" and "rustling" pencils. Xiao Mubai listened to the staff officers read these reports, and took a pen to mark and compare the completion of the plan by each unit on the wall full of maps.

Guizhou solved! The troops of the 2nd Division entered and occupied Guiyang.

Sichuan solved! The troops of the 3rd Division had already moved towards Chongqing.

Guangxi solved! The troops of the 1st Division, under the surrender of Shen Bingkun, an old acquaintance of the governor of Guangxi, also successfully captured Guilin.

Everything was carried out in an orderly manner under the control of the revolutionary army, and the situation in the three provinces newly incorporated into the Communist Party gradually became stable with Xiao Mubai's careful arrangements and the active stationing of Communist Party cadres at all levels.

The rapid progress of the Yunnan Revolutionary Army in the three provinces has aroused tremendous repercussions not only in the three provinces, but also throughout the country. Faced with the increasingly corrupt situation in the south, Zaifeng had not slept well for many days, and when he heard the news that Sichuan, Guizhou, and Guangxi provinces were occupied by the Yunnan Revolutionary Party at almost the same time, his eyes were dark and he almost fainted.

The news reached Yuan Shikai's ears, this time Yuan Shikai was obviously not as calm as last time, and the situation was developing so fast, which was obviously beyond his expectations. For this sudden appearance of the Communist Party, Yuan Shikai also began to pay more and more attention.

And this news is another bombshell for the major domestic forces! Newspapers everywhere stepped up their printing and additions, and the newsboys shouted the news in the newspapers of the street walkers in hoarse voices. So far, five provinces have been recovered. At this time, even people who are optimistic about the Qing court understand that if they don't do anything for themselves at this time, when the court collapses, there will be no chance.
