Chapter 72: Shanghai Manufacturing Bureau

Wearing a riding coat and old-fashioned glasses, no one could have imagined that this was actually a killer who sacrificed himself, or an assassin who protected the people and loved the country. Coming back from the street, Yang Hua said to Yang Shuai very seriously: "Young master, you must have at least three people by your side when you go out in the future, tonight is too dangerous." ”

Yang Shuai has always been moved by Yang Hua's loyalty, so he didn't argue with Yang Hua.

At night, the garrison building gradually quieted down, and two soldiers' conversations occasionally came from the front of the courtyard. Yang Shuai fell asleep in the old quilt, and the weather in April and May was not so cold. Thinking of this revolution, fortunately, the current Kuomintang mobilized its troops in time. If it is a little later, let Yuan Datou fully prepare and all the borrowed money is in place, but I am afraid that the Kuomintang will fail as soon as it moves.

Yunnan became independent, and Cai Ye also influenced Guizhou to remain neutral. Lu Rongting in Guangxi, like Long Jiguang, was obviously a member of the Yuan faction, and there were also opponents of the revolution in other provinces. But on the whole, Yuan Datou was temporarily unable to organize a large-scale southward march. As long as his Beiyang does not go south, the revolution will have room to toss and turn.

What should I do in the future, does the Suzhou Garrison Regiment really want to stay here as a security captain all the time? This is obviously not the ideal plan in Yang Shuai's heart, Suzhou connects Nanjing and Shanghai, Shanghai, and suddenly Yang Shuai turned around and thought of a key place. Yes, Shanghai, Huang Xing's trip to Nanjing has been considered a success, but Shanghai, it has been two days, and I haven't heard some news from Shanghai.

Chen Qimei is useless, at least in military terms, he is a layman. Moreover, Chen Qimei has always been accustomed to using gang members, these people can bully the common people, they are really with the military, and he himself does not have an excellent command level, how can he succeed.

I want to go back to Shanghai, not for merit, but for the overall situation. As long as Shanghai is in hand, it will be able to continuously deliver supplies and salaries to the revolutionary army in various places, just like in the Xinhai period.

Shanghai is like a warehouse, and geographically it is even more important to connect the north and the south, and control Shanghai.

Yang Shuai had a certain idea, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

Early in the morning, I turned over and jumped up, and the first thing I said when I opened my eyes was: "How many people have come back?" "The members of the garrison are all police officers, and it seems to be common sense to be timid. Yang Shuai decided to return to Shanghai, so he had to consider the number of people.

"Captain, there are three hundred and thirty-seven people in total, and it is estimated that no one has returned. Commander, are we sending someone to arrest the deserters? ”

Yang Shuai: "If you don't catch it, you don't want to conspire with each other." Du Yuesheng, how much money do we have left? ”

"Back to the head of the regiment." Du Yuesheng deserved to be loud, but he approached Yang Shuai in a low voice, looked around, and said in a low voice: "Young master, in addition to the ones used yesterday, we still have seven checks of 180,000 yuan from foreign banks from various countries, six gold bars, more than 9,000 yuan in cash, and jewelry and jewelry, with a total value of no less than 250,000 yuan. ”

Yang Shuai was stunned for a moment, since Yu Wentai was at that time, he already knew how rich these hypocrites dressed in revolutionary morality were, so he was not surprised.

I lowered my head and thought about it: "Send twenty guns and 10,000 yuan to the Jiang Sheren officer, and say that we will go back to Shanghai and recover Shanghai." ”

"Oh Lak, huh? Master, let's go back to Shanghai? ”

Yang Shuai nodded and said: "Go out of the city to make it clear to the soldiers, we are not going to Shanghai to be the head snake, but to recover Shanghai, and it is possible to move to the whole country in the future. ”

As soon as Yang Shuai said, the people in the hall could understand it, Wei Changyi was secretive, Yang Shuai looked at it, and his heart was clear, and he stepped forward: "Uncle Wei, I'm leaving, don't follow, after I leave, I'll leave you two thousand yuan, and at the same time I will write a recommendation to the Suzhou authorities, let you act as the police station, you recruit some people who don't want to leave, set up the police station from the new, and maintain the law and order in Suzhou." ”

Wei Changyi grew up in Suzhou, and when he heard that Yang Shuai not only understood his old age, but also cared for the people of Suzhou so much, he was immediately moved and knelt down: "Head Yang, Suzhou people can't forget your kindness, thank you." ”

Yang Shuai was shocked, and hurriedly ran over and pulled it up: "Uncle Wei, what are you doing here, isn't this a sacrifice of my life, come on." ”

Back in Shanghai, about 30 people from the garrison came out with their heads down, unwilling to leave Suzhou. At this time, in the garrison regiment, there was already a small group that kept mobilizing the crowd: "Tell me, over the years, have you seen such a good official, who do you not follow with someone like Commander Yang?" ”

The first person, named Lu Guoquan, was followed by some soldiers from the Liangguang region.

Yang Shuai wants to return to Shanghai with 300 people, which is not a trivial matter. First of all, Yan Kuan and Zheng Liyun were so excited that they almost held a farewell party. The second is that Jiang Sheren was surprised and rushed over in person to keep him, but he was persuaded by Yang Shuai's general truth and overall view, and left with 10,000 yuan and 20 guns.

Then he sent a telegram to Huang Xing in Nanjing, explaining that he had returned to Shanghai to settle the Shanghai issue as soon as possible, and hoped that the princes would not misunderstand. As for Chen Qimei, Yang Shuai didn't think about it, and ignored it directly.

You still say that you are the head snake of Shanghai, the overlord, the original majestic governor, and now two days have passed, and you can't even take a manufacturing bureau. When Yuan Datou freed his hands and transported troops with warships, it would be too late.

However, Yang Shuai is not an impulsive person, before leaving the school, he wrote a full piece of paper and handed it to an old guard: "You immediately return to Shanghai, go to the "Huabao", let Wang Shengsheng immediately rush to print it, and tell Wang Shengsheng that before I return to Shanghai, this report must see the light." ”

With money in his hands, and Shanghai is a prosperous area, Yang Shuai doesn't have to worry that this garrison regiment will starve, so there are not a lot of baggage in the army, and they are all necessary for battle.

Suzhou to Shanghai, a hundred kilometers, according to the soldier's way of marching, it does not take a day to get to Shanghai. The news also spread quickly, and before Yang Shuairen arrived, an exciting report of "Hua Bao" appeared on the streets of Shanghai, and the author was still a person named "Yun Zao".

"Shanghai is not restrained, the revolution is not continued, Sun Wen stayed in Chen Yingshi for two days and did not go to the manufacturing bureau, it can be seen that the gang is really not a regular soldier, Sun Wen made a mistake."

The piercing words bluntly said that Chen Qimei was incompetent, and Sun Wen looked at the wrong person. At the same time, the article repeatedly emphasized the importance of Shanghai, and if the revolution could not take Shanghai, everything would be defeated in the blink of an eye.

As soon as the report came out, this person named "Yun Zao" once again attracted people's attention. But Chen Qimei was furious at this time, and roared at home: "Which little red guy, which one?" "I dare to say that my loyal followers of Mr. Sun Wen have failed, and it is the opposite.

"Come on, I'll attack the manufacturing bureau myself."

1,000 people, Chen Qimei's influence is still terrifying, 1,000 people have 800 long and short guns, no wonder he dares to claim to be the "road to the beach"

Shanghai is actually very strange, the old city of Shanghai is in the south, Zhabei is in the north, and the middle is cut off by the French Concession and the Public Concession. The entire Shanghai Chinese can control the place is divided into two, and in Shanghai, this manufacturing bureau is the most important, and it is generally believed that as long as the manufacturing bureau is conquered, it is equivalent to controlling Shanghai.

At this time, Yuan Shikai's sworn friend, who controlled the manufacturing bureau, was categorically impossible to surrender.

The firepower of both sides, you come and go, and I don't give in. The gang members are chaotic, and the fight is like a street fight, and there is no order. Except for Chen Qimei's younger brother Jiang Zhiqing, who has a little ability, the others don't know anything about commanding soldiers and horses.

After dozens of people were killed, the bombardment was defeated, and Chen Qimei fired three shots in a row to kill three retreating ones, but he couldn't stop. The attack failed again, and some foreigners and reporters watching from a distance on the tall buildings in the distance once again shook their heads and retreated, publishing articles that should be published, and going home to eat.

Chen Qimei was dragged away by Jiang Zhiqing and others, for fear that the Manufacturing Bureau would rush out and arrest people, and other places in Shanghai would also go their own way, conservative and self-proclaimed, neither reactionary nor supportive of the revolution.

"Commander, it is estimated that we will be able to arrive in Shanghai City at eight o'clock tonight." Between Suzhou and Shanghai, a team of 300 people flew quickly, looking at the orderly march, Yang Hua, as an escort, couldn't help but say happily.

Yang Shuai nodded: "Well, after arriving in Shanghai, don't approach it first, the whole army will eat and rest ten miles away." ”

Yang Hua: "Okay, it's okay to rest for one night first, and I'll go back tomorrow." ”

saw Yang grinning: "Who said to go tomorrow?" ”

The army paused, and when it was about nine o'clock, Yang Shuai suddenly commanded the guards to gather with a roar. At this time, Yang Shuai suddenly missed the small mountain cannons in Guzhen, although they were pitifully small and there were few shells, but there were so many of them, and when they saw a strong gate or something, they could be bombarded.

Rushed to Shanghai overnight, with only one target, the Manufacturing Bureau.

The Manufacturing Bureau, Yang Shuai Zhilu said, there are two hundred regular troops stationed inside, and they are guarded, if they fight head-on, they may end up with the same fate as Chen Qimei. Especially in front of the new army of this garrison regiment, it is even more impossible to let the battle continue, and if it continues, the morale will fall, and then Yang Shuai can only roll up and run away.

"Don't make a sound, just move faster, and no one is allowed to speak."

"Don't shoot without an order, give an order, anyone retreats, and there will be no mercy."

"The regiment commander has an order, those who are still alive tomorrow morning, and those who have not run, will be rewarded with twenty yuan, twenty yuan, and a month's military salary."

The supervising team was actually Yang Shuai's original bodyguard, Yang Hua and others, and more than a dozen determined elements were recruited from among the soldiers.

Yang Hua was beside Yang Shuai: "Commander, if you sent Du Yuesheng back overnight, do you want to use the strength of the gang to attack like Chen Qimei?" ”

Yang Shuai shook his head: "No, I told Wang Shengsheng when I left Shanghai that everything in Shanghai has nothing to do with me, so as not to be affected in the future." I asked Du Yuesheng to go back, just to prepare some good things, you just wait. ”

The Manufacturing Bureau also has news outside, and Yang Shuai's return to Shanghai is now known to everyone. But when I heard that there were only three hundred people, especially how many attacks by thousands of people had been repelled by the Manufacturing Bureau in the past few days, who would care about these three hundred people.

When Yang Shuai's army sneaked into the city, it was eleven o'clock at night, when the crowd had just fallen asleep, a little later, entertainment, and far from going home.

The pace was not very neat, and the three hundred people did not say a word and ran into Shanghai. The Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau is divided into two parts, one is the first Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, which is located in the old city of Shanghai near the French Concession and the 16th Shop Street. The other is the Jiangnan Shipyard, on Changxing Island.

The attack, of course, is the General Directorate. There has been no one on this street in the past two days, and no one knows when there will be a battle on the road, and who dares to stay here to find death, so it is deserted.

At this time, there were several figures, holding Tuan Tuan in their arms, looking east and west. One of them: "Alas, Brother Yuesheng, can Young Master Yang only succeed with three hundred people, Chen Yingshi has fought several times, and each time there are thousands of people, but they haven't taken it down." ”

This person is Du Yuesheng, I saw Du Yuesheng say without hesitation: "Zhuoshan, you haven't stayed with him, go ahead, wait." If it can be done this time, my brother and I will have to make great contributions, and maybe I will be like the king of the Axe Gang at that time. ”

When those buddies heard this, they immediately said happily: "Ouch, Brother Yuesheng, you can't forget a few of us when the time comes." ”

"you, with me Du Yuesheng, you are missing?"

A few people were overjoyed, and they wanted to rush in with this explosive bag now, you see, the boys of the Manufacturing Bureau won the battle during the day, and they slept carelessly like dogs and pigs.

That's right, Yang Shuai asked Du Yuesheng to go back to prepare the explosives bag, since this thing was influenced by Yang Shuai, there is definitely something in the Axe Gang. No, as soon as Du Yuesheng appeared, although Yang Shuai strictly ordered not to let the Axe Gang participate, but the explosives were enough.

"Yuesheng, this way, this way." Yang Shuai is here.

"Wang Tu, what about Wang Tu-" Yang Shuai hurriedly wanted to find the former sub-chief who was the first to show his attitude, but he didn't expect to look back, his jaw almost didn't fall to the ground, only to see Wang Tu holding a spear in both hands, his legs trembling and bending, and his teeth fighting up and down: "Tuan-Tuan-"

Well, Yang Shuai remembered what Wang Tu said in Suzhou, and finally understood why he would be kicked out of the military camp several times, this mud.

At this time, a young man took the initiative to rush over: "Regiment leader, do you want to pick a pioneer, I'll go?" ”

When Yang Shuai saw it, he was immediately overjoyed, only to see that this person was tall and starry.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Lu Guoquan."

Du Yuesheng just saw it, and hurriedly lowered his head to explain this person to Yang Shuai, Yang Shuai heard it, smiled, patted Lu Guoquan's shoulder, and pointed to the manufacturing bureau five hundred meters away from the street: "Take it, you are the battalion commander." If you see that point, there must be a machine gun there, you can't let him start it, you organize the manpower first, and that's the point. ”

Inside the manufacturing bureau, there are more than 1,000 workers, and there are only two or three hundred elite soldiers guarding them.

In the middle of the night, with a bang, Lu Guoquan actually applied for an explosives package and bombarded the machine gun with the explosive package. Then a hedge, the first one to rush in will be rewarded with a hundred yuan, and there will be a brave man under the heavy reward. Chen Qimei did not win the manufacturing bureau for two days, and within half an hour, while people were still confused, announced the change of flag.
