Li Gengen's decision to join the Communist Party was indeed not groundless, but a decision made after careful consideration. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In fact, over the years, he has long been dissatisfied with the status quo of the League, and a good revolutionary organization has become what it is now. The organization is sloppy, the internal struggle for power and profit, and intrigue are not to mention, and the entire alliance will be organized in a mixed and dark miasma, which is really not good.

In addition, he was also a little dissatisfied with Sun Yat-sen, the leader of the League, and did not mention his private life, as the leader of the League, he should be rewarded and punished clearly, and all revolutionary comrades should be treated equally, but he is not like this. not only has a serious regional concept, but also relies on people like Chen Qimei who are like hooligans and gangsters as henchmen.

On this day, after some careful consideration, Li Gengen went to Ma Xiang's office alone, after all, Ma Xiang's invitation, it was time to make a decision. When he came to Ma Xiang's office and saw Ma Xiang who was burying a case and writing a book, Li Gengen said to himself:

"Young uncle, if you have time, I want to talk to you."

"Oh? It's Yinquan, wait a while, and you'll be fine right away. After raising his head and glancing at the words, Ma Xiang continued to wave the pen in his hand.

Seeing the busy Ma Xiang, Li Gengen did not have the slightest impatience.

"Yin Quan, I've kept you waiting, I just wrote something." Ma Xiang said apologetically.

"It's okay, you and I haven't known each other for a day or two, so why do you need to see each other like this. I came here because I have some ideas to tell you, I don't know if you have time now. ”

"Well, it's okay, anyway, I don't have anything to do now, let's go out for a walk, and talk while we go."

After the two walked out of the lecture hall, they walked along the path and walked all the way forward.

"Young uncle, I came to you this time because I wanted to join your party, so I wanted you to be an introducer." Li Gengen said to Ma Xiang with a serious face.

"Oh?" Li Gengen's words surprised Ma Xiang, after all, he had invited him intentionally or unintentionally, but he had intentionally or unintentionally put aside the topic. At this time, seeing Li Gengen's serious look, Ma Xiang was also overjoyed in his heart, and said:

"Yin Quan, have you thought about this?"

"Well, I have made a decision, after your introduction and my understanding, I agree with your party's political propositions and purposes, I think your party is the real revolutionary organization, so I am determined to join you, and I ask you to approve it."

"Haha, okay, Yin Quan, as the party secretary of the party in the martial arts hall, I can approve you to join the Communist Party now. From now on, you will be an honorable member of the Communist Party, and your party initiation ceremony will be held for you later. Ma Xiang's joy was beyond words.

"Okay." Although Li Gengen agreed in his mouth, he didn't seem to care at all in his heart. When he wanted to come, taking an oath before joining the party was just a formality.

"Presumably Yin Quan, you have had a similar experience in the League, but what I want to tell you is that our Communist Party is not the same as the Alliance, and in the League you just shout two slogans indiscriminately, but in the Communist Party, you must take it seriously. The oath of joining the party is a tradition of the Communist Progressive Party, and it is a form of expressing the party's requirements for party members and the political responsibility that party members are willing to assume to the party, their firm belief in the party, and their determination to fight for the party's cause for life. It embodies the solemnity and seriousness of the CPC. Take the oath in front of the party flag, keep in mind the oath of joining the party, and strengthen the confidence and determination to fight for the cause of the Three People's Principles for life. It is stipulated in the party constitution. Perhaps seeing Li Gengen's indifference, Ma Xiang solemnly admonished.

"Thank you, young brother, I remembered." Hearing Ma Xiang say this, Li Gengen paid a little attention to it in his heart.

Not to mention the party joining ceremony presided over by Ma Xiang for Li Gengen, but it is said that just a few days later, a major event in the southwest frontier that was closely related to all walks of life in Yunnan and caused a sensation, which was the "Pian Ma Incident".

Generally speaking, the Pianma Incident is a general term for a series of diplomatic incidents that have occurred in recent years when Britain vainly attempted to occupy the Pianma and Gulang regions of Yunnan, China. Speaking of this incident, I have to mention one person, this person is Xu Linxiang. This person is a native of Xujiazhai in Tengchong County, and has been selling cedar boards in the Pianma area over the years. Later, he served as the head of the Pianma League Bureau, and collected the cedar tax in the Pianma area on behalf of the Tusi. Later, he was dismissed by Tusi because of the incident, and he held a grudge.

In the second year of Xuantong, that is, in 1910, Shanyu Denggang Tusi had a dispute with Xu Linxiang and others over the issue of cedar board taxation, and at this time Xu Linxiang actually sent people to the British side of Burma for help. Britain also sees an opportunity to take advantage of this and is ready to use this as an excuse to unreasonably interfere in China's internal affairs.

In late November 1910, the British decided to send Colonel Hetz in Myitkyina to Xidong with more than 1,000 troops to discuss the invasion with the British consul in Tengyue, Lou Si. By December 26, more than 100 British advance troops marched along the road for emergency repair. At the same time, more than 2,000 British troops also arrived at Pianma at the western foot of Gaoligong Mountain shortly after, and set up camps and garrisons for military occupation. This is the sensational "Pianma Incident".

Upon hearing this news, the Yunnan Provincial Consultative Bureau elected Zhou Zhongyue and Li Yueyuan as representatives to Beijing to petition the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a serious protest against the British Government. Although the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Li Jingxi, and the Qing government made serious representations to the British authorities, they failed to send troops to Pianma, which emboldened the British colonists who believed in the law of the jungle.

This incident made Xiao Mubai feel the grief and helplessness of the small people in the weak country more intuitively. Later generations always saw this or that event in textbooks, but after all, it was only written in books, and they did not experience it as intuitively. At the same time, it also made him feel the urgency of the situation.

Obviously, Xiao Mubai was stimulated this time, and at this time, Xiao Mubai desperately wanted to master a powerful force.

There are still a few days to go before the end of the year, and the contradiction between Cui Xiangkui and Li Jingxi, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, is becoming more and more acute, and Li Jingxi has already sent several telegrams to the War Department asking for Cui Xiangkui to be transferred.

In another time and space, Cui Xiangkui only succeeded Zhong Lintong as the commander of the Nineteen Towns after he left his post in early 1911. At this moment, Xiao Mubai obviously focused on the position behind Cui Xiangkui leaving.

Xiao Mubai thought this way is not without reason, since Emperor Xuantong succeeded to the throne, the regent Zaifeng couldn't wait to take Yuan Shikai to avenge his brother Emperor Guangxu, but in the end, for various reasons, he had to be sent back to his hometown. But after that, in order to better concentrate military power, Yuan Shikai's forces in the six towns of Beiyang were strongly suppressed. It can be said that Zaifeng hated the forces of Beiyang. And Cui Xiangkui, the commander of the Nineteen Towns, is also from Beiyang. I am different, it is no exaggeration to say that returning from Germany to enter the domestic officialdom definitely belongs to the kind of people who have "no roots and no roots". Come to think of it, he threw himself into Zaifeng's door, which should be what he is happy to see.

Moreover, Prince Qing Yixuan and Zaifeng's younger brother Zaitao are famous people who are greedy for money, isn't there a saying that money can make ghosts grind. If you want to use your money to go through the door of these two people, it should be possible.

After making up his mind, Xiao Mubai was not ambiguous, and immediately sent someone to handle it.

The Spring Festival of 1910 is getting closer and closer. After three years of development and preparation, the armed forces in the hands of Xiao Mubai at this time, plus a newly formed division in the Panzhihua area, have reached the scale of three divisions, and these three divisions are not comparable to the current Qing army in China. It was established in comparison with the army of later generations, and everyone had a semi-automatic rifle, and the division had an artillery regiment under its jurisdiction, and the weapons equipped with it could throw a few hills from the six towns of Beiyang if a division was pulled out.

Not to mention that Xiao Mubai has secretly hoarded billions of rounds of ammunition in Guangnan, as well as tens of thousands of new Type 08 semi-automatic rifles, and countless other weapons and ammunition. Every day, the arsenal is still operating at full capacity. It can be said that as long as there are people now, Xiao Mubai can immediately arm tens of thousands of troops.

The New Year is the New Year, and Xiao Mubai has long been fascinated by this magnificent era.
