"Chen Yingshi was captured alive? Okay, good, good, give me the forty-year-old Shi Guo of the jar to be made public, let's not get drunk and don't return! Chai Dongliang was overjoyed.

News came from Shanghai that the 61st Regiment of the Shanghai Army and the child's play of the Youth Gang of the "Second Revolution" were crushed in four hours, Huang Yin and Lin Hu resisted arrest and were killed, Chen Yingshi tried to commit suicide but did not have the courage to pull the trigger, and was captured alive by Wu Jing.

The flames of the "second revolution" launched simultaneously in four provinces and one municipality had already been extinguished on the first day. This also shows how fragile this so-called revolution is. During the Xinhai Revolution, as soon as the guns rang out, the revolutionary party would often have people from inside and outside to help them seize the city, or persuade the local officers and soldiers to give up resistance.

At this time, the whole country was at peace, and Sun Wen's mutiny was undoubtedly self-defeating. This action was not only unanimously condemned by all sides, but also dissupported by many people within the KMT, and most of the KMT members in the Senate opposed it.

Chai Dongliang saw some clues from the report in Shanghai. Song Jiaoren's murderer died in the prison of the 61st Regiment of the Shanghai Army for no reason, while Ying Guixin, the leader of the Green Gang who instructed him, ran away from the Shanghai Army Prison with a swagger when Chen Yingshi launched a mutiny. On the Yanjing political axe, he had been in exchange with Ying Guixin by telegram, plotting to destroy Song Jiaoren, and the remaining Hong Shuzu fled to the German concession in Qingdao.

So far, the three direct suspects in the murder of Song Jiaoren have either died or fled, and this case has become a headless public case.

"Shameless!" Chai Dongliang made a judgment easily.

The killing of Song Jiaoren was instigated by Chen Yingshi, and Song Jiaoren's authority within the Kuomintang gradually increased, even surpassing Sun Wen's head. This is unacceptable to Chen Yingshi, and it just so happened that at this time, Zhao Bingjun wanted to suppress Song Jiaoren and become the prime minister of the cabinet, so he asked Hong Shuzu to find a way to get Song Jiaoren's scandal from the book. But Song Jiaoren has always been clean and self-conscious, and he has no words to add to his crimes. When Chen Yingshi learned that Zhao Bingjun wanted to frame Song Jiaoren, he bought Ying Guixin, found Wu Shiying, a dead soldier, and then shot Song Jiaoren.

The 61st Regiment of the Shanghai Army was a descendant of Chen Yingshi, and Shanghai was almost the stronghold of the Kuomintang. The murderer Wu Shiying died mysteriously here, but Ying Guixin was able to escape calmly, which was obviously not something that Yuan Shikai and Beiyang could do. Under the guidance of Chen Yingshi, the patrol of the public concession quickly caught the murderer and solved the case, and the spearhead was directed at Yuan Shikai.

killing two birds with one stone, killing Song Jiaoren cleared the obstacles for Chen Yingshi to ascend to the highest level of the Kuomintang, and at the same time framed Yuan Shikai, I have to say that Chen Yingshi did a good job!

Sun Wen launched the "Second Revolution" because of Song Jiaoren's killing, was he really stupid and deceived by Chen Yingshi, or was he a long-planned action?

If he were Chai Dongliang when he was a teenager, he would definitely think that Sun Wen had been deceived, but with the increase in the information provided by the book friend group, he found that the relationship between Sun Wen and Song Jiaoren was not good. Song Jiaoren never bought Sun Wen's account, feeling that he had deceived the world but did not actually do anything, Sun Wen himself said, Song Jiaoren said the opposite, and he once said, "Sun Wen is a figure who is behind the times, if he is the leader, the Chinese revolution will inevitably not succeed." Sun Wen also had no good impression of Song Jiaoren, until ten years after Song Jiaoren's death, Sun Wen still told the students in a speech in Guangdong that he was controlled by Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren and other old revolutionaries, and ten years later he was still haunted.

Dai Jitao, who has always proclaimed himself the heir of Sun Wen, even openly propagated: "On the basis of a group of political forces that have lost their revolutionary surnames and doctrines, they should compromise with the counter-revolutionary bureaucracy in order to seize power in a short period of time." Fair criticism, the first sinner of the revolutionary party is really Song Jiaoren! ”

Revolutionary life, but was regarded by the leader as a sinner who hindered the development of the revolution, if Huang Xing and Song Jiaoren knew about it, they didn't know how they would sigh? Especially Song Jiaoren, who turned out to be the biggest sinner of the revolution, Song Dunchu can be said to be blind to death!

According to various information, Sun Wen's launch of the "second revolution" was premeditated, but every time he launched an uprising or rebellion, he was not fully prepared, and this time was no exception.

Chai Dongliang's heart is extremely heavy, the case of Song Jiaoren's murder should be the result of the cooperation between the top leaders of the Kuomintang and the Beiyang political axe, this kind of idealist is not tolerated in this world, whether it is an opponent or a comrade, he will not be allowed to live in this world. Chai Dongliang didn't even dare to conclude whether Sun Wen was involved in this conspiracy!

The deified person will one day be restored to sincerity, and man cannot be perfect, as is true for everyone. Worshipping the leaders of countries and political parties as gods, suns, and helmsmen has no other role than to highlight the insignificance of the people.

A nation cannot do without heroes and great men, and an era in which heroes and great men can be compared with God is destined to be a hell for the people!

Chai Dongliang remembered the evaluation of Yuan Shikai's life by later scholars: he was a hero in his youth, a capable minister in middle age, and a culprit in the chaos of the world in his later years.

One day in the future, when the layers of fog in modern history are peeled away, how should Sun Wen be evaluated?

Before the Xinhai Revolution, Sun Wen was undoubtedly the greatest contributor to the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, without one, without his more than a dozen unsuccessful uprisings that shook the foundation of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, without him calling on the people and the new army to set off the enthusiasm of the whole country to fill the revolution, the Manchu court behemoth would not have collapsed with a bang.

What about Sun Wen after the Xinhai Revolution? And how to evaluate it?

"What do you want, Governor?" Gao Chuguan asked.

"I didn't think about anything, I'm so happy!" Chai Dongliang didn't want to think about it anymore, and if he thought about it too much, he should have gray hair, so he said casually.

Gao Chuguan sighed with emotion: "Yes, Tao Chengzhang died unjustly, Song Jiaoren also died tragically, Chen Yingshi, a dog thief, has done a lot of evil, and it is time to be full of evil!" I didn't get his real evidence last time, but this rebellion is genuine, and I don't believe he can escape. ”

Chai Dongliang nodded, Chen Yingshi is dead this time, and it is impossible to slip through the net like last time.

The adjutant brought up the wine glass, and dug out a jar of forty-year-old Shi Guogong from under the osmanthus tree, and when he opened the mud seal, he smelled a rich fragrance, and the wine also had a slight medicinal fragrance.

The two of them staggered and drank with great interest.

"Dudu, Sun Wen and Huang Xing are definitely going to be finished this time, what are you planning to do next?" Gao Chuguan was slightly drunk, and a red cloud appeared on his face.

Chai Dongliang smiled: "Mr. Xiang Yuan, what do you think?" Let's hear it. ”

Gao Chuguan picked up a pair of chopsticks and used old vinegar to mix the radish skin, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, while sorting out his thoughts, and then said slowly: "Does the governor want to take the entire south of the Yangtze River?" ”

Chai Dongliang nodded: "Is there this idea, is there a problem?" ”

Gao Chuguan shook his head and said: "Our internal affairs talents are seriously insufficient, and we have suddenly occupied such a vast area, not only will we not increase taxes, but we also need to subsidize the poor provinces in the southwest??? Imagine that in your area of rule, if the policies of the provinces are different, there will be chaos, if they all follow the model of Anhui and Jiangxi, it will require a large amount of money, and the need for new political axes and officials is also very huge, I dare say, if we expand too fast, it will make our foundation unstable, and some of the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"What do you think?"

"Wuhan is the thoroughfare of nine provinces, and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, so Hubei must be taken, Jiangsu is the place where the world's wealth gathers, Nanjing is in the dragon's hand, and it must also be in the bag??? This time, if we win Hubei and Jiangsu, even if we win a big victory, there is no need to make it too big. ”

Chai Dongliang nodded again and again: "This is too good, it's easy to pull eggs when you have big steps." ”

Gao Chuguan squirted out with a sip of wine, and smiled back and forth: "This is wonderful, so wonderful, although the words are rough but vivid!" ”

Since the Xinhai Revolution was fought in the southern provinces, they have been looted by these Kuomintang governors, and many green forest bandits and gangsters have turned into local leaders, using bandits as officials, which is tantamount to using weasels to watch chicken coops. If it is received, it will require a huge investment of money to restore the economy, and it will also require countless modernly educated officials to manage such a large area.

Chai Dongliang is not yet able to clean up this mess and prepare bread for half of the Chinese people, which is almost an impossible task. Chai Dongliang is still self-aware, and his own ability can't make the Marshall Plan of the East at all.

The two of them drank from the west of the sun until the moon rose overhead, and the wind blew in the summer night and the people were in a good mood, and a jar of wine also bottomed out.

Chai Dongliang looked up and saw a full moon on the ground, and he couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart.

This moon shines on the ancients, will this round of bright moon also shine on the land of China a hundred years later? There are their own relatives there, and they don't know how sad they will be after losing the news of themselves?

Or a hundred years later, there is still Chai Dongliang, who is still shaved, likes to wear Nike shoes and play basketball with three or five friends, chatting about Fengyue, and exchanging the figures of Mr. Sora Aoi and Aunt Mutoran. Still disapproving of his mother's nagging, still ignoring his father's teachings, and still thinking that the post-80s generation is more in line with his own taste than the post-90s girls?

Holding the wine glass, Chai Dongliang burst into tears, a line of tears flowed into the wine glass, and swallowed the golden wine syrup with forty years of aging??? Tears are salty!
