Wang Hengyue went out this time, won four battles and four victories, all the way to Jiang Dazong, the rebels who killed were terrified, and the Dalai Lama fled in the wilderness, and it had already spread to Rong County!

The elders of Rong County have long regarded Wang Hengyue as their own person, this time the Wang team officer, no, Wang Bang once again showed his might and defeated the rebels, how could he not be happy and celebrate.

This time, Wang Hengyue went on the expedition for two months, and Deng Yong and Chen Qifeng had already arrived with mining machines. Li Shenchun and Li Qizhang because the well mining involves their own interests, and the salt is also unusually smooth!

At this rate, the salt can be smoothly produced after about ten days at most.

Zhao Erfeng did not break his promise, and really wrote a letter to his brother Zhao Erxun, saying that Wang Hengyue wanted to assist Rong County to open a machine bureau. This doesn't have to be Zhao Erxun's money, Wang Hengyue has made great contributions, and he has his younger brother's face, Zhao Erxun also agreed that Wang Hengyue would try to set up this machine bureau first.

It's just that Shangfeng agreed, and it took a lot of trouble where to get the silver.

Wang Hengyue put together a piece of silver in his pocket, and there were only 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver, and some deductions were deducted for buying salt mining machines, and then he had to deduct some of Kleiman's bullets.

Just when Wang Hengyue was struggling with silver, something big happened in Sichuan!

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Ma Xiao rushed in with sweat on his head: "I just got an urgent report, Xiong Kewu, a revolutionary, will join Wang Songting, the leading uncle of the Leshan Elder Association, to launch a Guang'an riot!" ”

"What? Xiong Kewu? Wang Hengyue stood up suddenly.

This Xiong Kewu is famous, an old member of the Alliance, and a native of Leshan, Sichuan, the actual ruler of Sichuan for a long time, and the planner of many uprisings in Sichuan.

In the winter of 1906, the headquarters of the League ordered Xiong Kewu to return to Sichuan, and together with Xie Fengqi and Huang Shu**, he presided over the work of the Sichuan League, and contacted the party to carry out armed struggle. Xiong Kewu first went to Yucheng, Luzhou, and other places to meet with Zhu Zhihong, Xie Fengqi, and She Ying, and then went to Chengdu to hold a secret meeting with Huang Shuzhong in Caotang Temple for armed struggle. After the meeting, Xiong Kewu, under the alias Qiu Jichuan, went to Yucheng, Luzhou, Yibin, Pingshan, Jingyan, Yongning, Yongchuan and other places to contact the revolutionaries, set up organs, recruit league members and appoint responsible persons, and lay the foundation for launching an armed uprising.

On October 1, 1907, he and She Ying, Xie Fengqi and others organized armed uprisings in Jiang'an and Luzhou, but failed due to incidents. He immediately went to Chengdu and held an armed uprising with Huang Fang, Yang Wei, and Xie Zhizhi on October 4, but also failed due to the incident. Although the uprisings in Luzhou and Chengdu failed, the Sichuan party members were not discouraged, they were anxious to do it again, vowed to avenge the dead comrades, and decided to organize another uprising in Yibin on the evening of December 13. However, the uprising died again when the traitor Lei Dongyuan secretly reported the entire plan of the uprising to the government.

In the spring of 1908, Xiong Kewu and She Ying sneaked to Tokyo to buy guns and ammunition, and with the assistance of Wu Yuzhang and Miyazaki Yinzang, they purchased more than 30 pistols and more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition, and transferred them back to Sichuan in winter. Subsequently, he, She Ying, Zeng Xingzhai and others decided to launch an armed uprising in Guang'an.

"How is the riot now?" Wang Hengyue hurriedly asked.

"It's been suppressed." Ma Xiao gasped and told what had happened.

It turned out that in the process of returning to China to prepare for the uprising on the order of the League, Xiong Kewu attached great importance to Wang Songting, the party force. Wang Songting is one of the leading masters of the Leshan Elders' Association, and he controls the gang forces in the Dadu River, Tsing Yi River, and Minjiang River, and his strength is extremely strong.

Because the League did not have the armed forces under its control, every time it revolted, in addition to mobilizing a small number of lower-level officers and soldiers of the Qing army to participate, it mainly relied on the ranks of gangs such as the Elders' Association. When Xiong Kewu analyzed the favorable conditions, he listed Wang Songting's forces as a force that the Sichuan League could directly command and use.

Xiong Kewu decided to launch the Guang'an Uprising on March 1, 1909.

Before the operation, Wang Songting accompanied Xiong Kewu, She Ying and others to Dazhu, Changshou, Linshui, and Guang'an to make contact in advance. According to the plan, the uprising team was divided into two routes: one was that She Ying commanded 400 river transport workers to enter Guang'an City from the east gate, and met Liao Tengxiao to lead dozens of people lurking in the city in advance to capture the security camp; The other route was Qin Bing, Wang Songting and others to gather gang members from the neighboring counties of Guang'an to listen to Xiong Kewu's orders to attack the Yamen of Guang'an Zhizhou.

Along the way, Xiong Kewu and Wang Songting successfully shouted in unison to attack the state office, and did not encounter resistance. Xiong Kewu immediately changed his original plan and led his team to attack the security camp.

After breaking through the gate, Wang Songting and Qin Bing were responsible for searching the barracks on both sides separately, and there were only a few soldiers who drove them into a room and locked them up. After that, Wang Songting was ordered by Xiong Kewu to ask She Ying to quickly send someone over to fetch the firearms. However, She Ying's team, because the Qing soldiers strictly guarded the city gate, could not enter the city, and most of them dispersed on their own.

At this time, the Qing soldiers sounded the drums of the assembled troops. There was a scuffle between the two sides, with each dead and wounded. After all, the Qing soldiers were numerous and well-armed, and the uprisers were invincible, so they only broke through with their heads, and most of them rushed out of the city gate. Wang Songting himself was defeated and took eastern Sichuan.

"It failed after all." Wang Hengyue sighed softly.

Although I had been prepared for the failure of this uprising, I still felt a little sorry when I heard it.

At present, the conditions for the uprising are still not ripe, and patience is still needed. However, although the Guang'an Uprising failed again, it was a tough battle, expanding the influence of the revolutionary party and shaking the foundation of the Qing Dynasty in Sichuan.

"Your Excellency." Ma Xiao hurriedly said: "Xiong Kewu and Wang Songting are both from Leshan, it is possible to sneak back to Leshan, Shangfeng ordered Leshan and its surroundings to be closely investigated, once the rebellious party is found, they will be arrested immediately, and they will be killed!" ”

Wang Hengyue nodded, vaguely remembering that Wang Songting was indeed caught in Wanxian when he was preparing to sneak back to Leshan, and then he was killed in Wanxian.

What about Xiong Kewu? Will Xiong Kewu return to Leshan?

Leshan is Zhang Xu's territory, and his hand can't reach there, but if Xiong Kewu appears in Rong County, what should he do?

"Notify all platoons and strictly check them, especially for strangers from other places." Wang Hengyue thought for a while: "If you catch the chaotic party, don't insult it casually, and send it to Lao Tzu safely." ”

"Yes!" Ma Xiao responded, and then he was a little worried: "My lord, the order from above is to kill, just in case"

"What if?" Wang Hengyue sneered: "Lao Tzu doesn't kill the party, that is to have a good review, who dares to make irresponsible remarks about Lao Tzu?" ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand: "Go, tell the brothers the meaning of this gang!" ”
