Guangdong killed the League, and Fujian killed both the League and the Guangfu Society. As for Zhejiang, due to the weakness of the Alliance, the main purge was the Restoration Society.

On April 12, the gates of Zhejiang cities that had been under martial law for a long time suddenly opened, and the Beiyang Army and militia groups broke into the cities and began to arrest people. Only some of the members who joined the Restoration Society by Cai Yuanpei, as well as those who had the local gentry behind them who tried their best to protect them, survived. Hangzhou, Shaoxing, and Jinhua were the hardest hit areas for arrests.

By April 20, more than 40,000 people had been arrested in Zhejiang. Regarding what to do with so many people arrested, Feng Guozhang, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, instructed: "Don't release it, don't leave it behind." "All localities know what this "don't leave behind" means, Zhejiang has a lot of water, and from the 21st, there have been large-scale executions of prisoners in various places.

In the past, it was good to post notices for killing, even if it was a false accusation, it was necessary to explain what these people had done. This purge also had this process at the beginning, and the people killed had to publicize their evil deeds of "radicalism" and "opposition to the landlords". However, on the third day of the killing, there was no such interest in all places, and it was a very painstaking matter to make up notices. So at the end of the notice, it was only written, "XX day, kill XX people of the party." Chaos in the party, chaos in the party, ......"

After killing for another three or four days, I went to post an announcement once I killed people in batches, and I had to write down my names and tired the people in charge of cleaning up the party in various places. In order to further improve efficiency, they only post announcements once a day in the morning and in the afternoon. A piece of paper was full of "kill XX people in a certain place, kill XXX people in a certain place". This finally frees those who are responsible for paperwork from their hard work.

By May 7, 1915, the frequency of murder notices had finally slowed down. Zhejiang Governor Zhu Rui was very unrefreshed when he got up in the morning, and the servant sent ginseng tea for Zhu Rui to drink, and then changed to white tea for Zhu Rui to rinse his mouth, and then retreated.

These days, the execution of the rebel party, what Zhu Ruidu Governor has to do is not to collude, but to select from the list those who will not be killed for the time being. After this round of killings, the more Zhu Rui Dudu went to the back, the more he had to think about who not to kill. So he's been working all night lately. Yesterday, all those who were left to the last group were released, and the rest of the group were all executed. They are all veterans of the Restoration Society, as well as a group of more influential people in the local area, even if they are unhappy in their hearts, Zhu Ruidu changed his military uniform and prepared to go to the prison to practice for these people. Human favor is such a thing, and Governor Zhu Rui can wait for the people below to bring the execution report, but this will make it seem that Zhu Rui has no heart. On the last day of the condemned prisoner, he went to personally deliver some food and wine, which greatly demonstrated the love of the governor of Jurui.

The ginseng tea probably had some effect, and Zhu Ruidudu felt a little more angry. After eating a bowl of longan porridge, Zhu Rui ordered the guards to set off for the prison. Although he didn't want to meet those death row inmates in person, Zhu Rui wanted to see Wang Jinfa's final death with his own eyes. As one of the bigwigs of the Restoration Society, Wang Jinfa was arrogant and looked down on Zhu Rui, the governor of Zhejiang, who was born in the New Army. But after Wang Jinfa was arrested, he desperately wanted not to die. Being able to personally send Wang Jin a desperate meal, Zhu Rui's mood was excellent.

Zhu Rui has not traveled on horseback in the past six months, and the British gave a batch of cars to senior officials in Zhejiang, and Zhu Rui naturally chose his favorite one first. Riding a bicycle through the streets of Zhejiang, those envious and jealous eyes always make Zhu Rui feel good. As usual, two cars drove at the same time when traveling, and Zhu Rui chose to take the first one this time.

There are no people on the streets, and although the shops are still open, they can only be described as crowded. Recently, there have been large-scale killings of the party everywhere, and thousands of people have been shot dead in Hangzhou, where is everyone in the mood to buy things. The car drove slowly as usual, and Zhu Rui looked around in the car. As he was driving, he saw a woman appear on the road, the woman was not very old and her appearance was pretty. It's just that her behavior of standing in the middle of the street is very alarming.

Zhu Rui saw that the driver slowed down, and the guards who were riding horses to open the way also stepped forward to drive away. saw that the woman first untied the hairpin, and the black hair on her head slid down her back, and then the woman untied her clothes, and she didn't wear anything in the skirt, and the woman was naked in front of the Zhejiang Governor's convoy. This time, not only the guards, but even Zhu Rui in the car was dumbfounded. The woman is extremely beautiful and fair-skinned. Plus naked, and there is no threat at all.

The driver also didn't know what to do, whether to keep moving or simply stop. At this moment, the woman bent down and sat in the back seat of the car to see clearly, but looking at this posture, Zhu Rui knew that the woman should be kneeling. "Is this woman going to cry out for injustice?" Zhu Rui thought. But the recent so-called grievances are only afraid of the big killing of the party, even if the woman shouts grievances like this, Zhu Rui is not ready to play any tricks of "open grace" in the drama.

Before he could finish thinking about it, a burst of gunfire rang out from the side of the road. Zhu Rui saw the guards on the left fall from their horses in succession. "Hurry up!" Zhu Rui yelled at the driver. Either way, this is not the time to stop here and be beaten.

"There's someone up ahead!" The driver replied subconsciously.

"Kill her!" Zhu Rui already understood that the woman in front of him was bound to be one of the assassins, and he yelled viciously.

The driver also figured out the joint, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the car accelerated and slammed forward. estimated that the moment he happened to bump into the woman, Zhu Rui felt a huge shock. The window glass shattered, and the car flew into the air. When the impulse of many angles converged on his body, Zhu Rui probably understood that the woman had detonated the bomb. In the moment before losing consciousness, Zhu Rui still hadn't figured out where the bomb was placed.

Zhu Rui, the governor of Zhejiang, was assassinated, and the car he was riding in was blown up by the bomb, and the burning car rolled over and flew out more than ten meters away after hitting the ground. According to the surviving members of the guard, the woman hid the bomb in her clothes, and all eyes were on the woman's naked body. No one noticed the mystery in the clothes on the floor. The woman had already held the fuse when she knelt down, and detonated the bomb when Juri's bike hit her.

Of course, many years later, there were bored people who tried to reconstruct the assassination, believing that the woman used the kind of detonating device developed by the BJP. The woman only needed to pinch the electronically controlled fuse, and as soon as she let go, the bomb would explode. Because in a kneeling position, the front of the car will hit the woman's head first, and it is impossible for a normal person to effectively control the detonation time in such a position. This detonation mode developed by the BJP ensures that the bomb can be detonated even if it is lost, which ensures that the assassination effect will not be unsuccessful due to various accidental reasons.

The investigation of the identity of the woman also had results, she was the daughter of a landlord family who joined the peasant association in western Zhejiang, and attended the Jinhua Girls' School. During the purge of western Zhejiang, some young girls were spared. But their solution is by no means lucky. The girls were sold to fireworks venues. The woman later somehow got in touch with the West Zhejiang Branch, and together with the people from the West Zhejiang Branch, she carried out the assassination.

But those who participated in the assassination were either killed or committed suicide by poisoning themselves before being captured. Since there were local people in Hangzhou, some people suspected that someone within the Liberation Society planned the murder.

No matter how you guess, this assassination case has indeed changed the situation in Zhejiang greatly. The inmates of the prison did not know if they were lucky or not, and as a result of the investigation of the matter, they survived for three more days. Immediately, as long as they were imprisoned, regardless of whether Zhu Rui, the governor of Zhejiang, decided to die before his death, under the order of Feng Guozhang, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, all these people were shot.

When the news reached Anhui, the young comrades of the western Zhejiang branch did not celebrate, and even the least sad people only shouted in tears that Zhu Rui, the governor of Zhejiang, deserved it. Li Shouxian's prediction that he had done a mass killing of members of the Restoration Society has been confirmed to be true.

The western Zhejiang branch also sent some comrades, but most of them were not able to return. Those comrades who were lucky enough to come back talked about the scenes of murder in various places. The Beiyang Army was better, they were directly arrested. Those militias were like mad dogs on the streets, killing those in Western clothes in the countryside, and even those wearing glasses and Western-style hats. In some places, they have become so mad that they kill people wearing leather shoes and pens.

The People's Party had no real work in Zhejiang at all, and even the public representatives and commercial units in Hangzhou withdrew from the People's Party base in 1914 when Cai Yuanpei carried out anti-People's Party propaganda. The so-called killing of the "People's Party and the Chaos Party" is already a repression against Westernization.

From January 1915, in Zhejiang and Fujian, the scale and intensity of the recruitment of militia groups have greatly increased. There are already a large number of local militia groups in Guangdong, so there has been no large-scale expansion. In these years, it is not easy to find a livelihood, and the original militia group has to rely on relationships, and it is not an acquaintance who is not recruited at all. Even if you are an acquaintance, you may not be able to recruit it. The militia eats salaries, who will have so much money to feed such a large number of people.

Where can the militia groups in the township distinguish what the People's Party is, because the People's Party's goods compete with foreign goods in Zhejiang, and these people feel that as long as it is Westernized, it is the People's Party. In addition, the local Westernized people did try to dominate the new order in Zhejiang, and there were many gentry and landlords who were dissatisfied with them. The slaughter fell directly on the heads of these people.

"Jealous of the virtuous", "stubborn", and "reactionary", the young people of the western branch of Zhejiang put all kinds of hats on the old-fashioned reactionary gentry in these places.

Li Shouxian regretted the ability to understand the West Zhejiang Branch. It is highly likely that these comrades will attribute the cruelty to personal morality, or so-called human nature. In short, they will think that there are innumerable "accidental" factors that determine what happens, and few will really think that this is the inevitable result of the development of the class struggle to a certain stage. Li Shouxian did not want to criticize the young comrades for being inexperienced because of this, and he himself had carefully studied Chen Ke's "prediction" on this matter before the incident, and after the incident, Li Shouxian forcibly studied it many times before he had to admit that everything that happened was inevitable. There is no accident in the class struggle.
