People are realistic, and groups and countries are even more realistic, and the strategic adjustment made in accordance with the changes in the situation takes more into account interests, without the slightest human affection. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The revolutionary army avoided the enemy's main force and turned to the Qing army to defend the empty place. After being caught off guard at first, the Qing army also made corresponding changes. And it affected not only the two sides in the civil war, but also the attitude of the French.

Obviously, the revolutionary army's continuous resistance based on favorable terrain and terrain was not enough to resist the Qing army's southward attack, and the General Staff certainly did not have such a strategic arrangement. Mengzi, Kaiyuan, Gejiu and other places were successively "recovered" by the Qing army, and finally even Hekou was voluntarily abandoned by the revolutionary army.

While the Qing army achieved these achievements, it also paid quite heavy casualties. In terms of situation, the Qing army occupied southern Yunnan and divided the territory occupied by the revolutionary army into two parts: western Yunnan and western Guangxi; But from another point of view, it is not under the attack of the revolutionary army. Moreover, the Qing army, which had stretched the supply line, was also under the threat of the Guixi Revolutionary Army behind it.

In essence, the confrontation between the enemy and the enemy did not distinguish between the winners and losers, but only a change in the direction of strategy and development. But the French thought that the Qing army had the upper hand, and the revolutionary army lost its bargaining chips with them in an unfavorable situation.

Of course, the French did not dare to do too much, after all, the revolutionary army still had 1,800 troops in northern Vietnam, and with the cooperation and support of the Vietnamese anti-French armed forces, they still occupied the land of Gao Ping in northern Vietnam. Therefore, the negotiations were delayed, but the transportation of materials was interrupted, the personnel were strictly checked, and the attitude of the French became tougher.

In this case, the General Staff felt that it could unite with Huang Huatan and others to create more trouble for the French in order to force the French to submit.

But from Chen Wenqiang's thinking, he is against completely tearing his face with the French. At the same time, he was not completely at ease with the anti-French forces such as Huang Huatan. As long as they are not completely under the orders of the Revival Society or the General Staff, they will not be able to control the limits of the actions of Huang Huatan and others. If we fail to fight as soon as we want and stop as soon as we want, we may expand the conflict and turn it into a war that cannot be easily ended.

The main enemy at the moment is the Qing army, concentrating on defeating them. The general strategic goal of the revolutionary army has not changed. In this case, to prove to the French that the revolutionary army had the strength to defeat the Qing army, and that the immediate evasion was just a strategy, then the French would naturally let down their toughness and resume negotiations. In other words, the revolutionary army did not necessarily have to set up two enemies, but only had to defeat one enemy, the Qing army, and the other possible enemy, the French, would naturally change its attitude.

Chen Wenqiang thinks differently from others. It was because he had always regarded the Vietnamese anti-French armed forces as pawns that could be used or abandoned. However, as most people at that time thought, since they were all countries or nations that were bullied by the Western powers, they had to unite and unite and cooperate.

"The transportation of people and materials from Vietnam can be temporarily stopped, and the time has not yet come for a large-scale conflict with legal entities. The task now should be to find a way to defeat the Qing army, then everything will be solved, and the legal person will change its attitude......"

The content of the telegram sent by Chen Wenqiang was very clear, regardless of the attitude of the legal person. As long as you don't openly become an enemy, you will tolerate it for the time being. Just defeat the Qing army. The situation changes, and the legal person will adjust its strategy. Otherwise, it cannot be ruled out that the legal person may join forces with the Qing army to exterminate the revolutionary army.

Try not to create two or more enemies at the same time, this is the principle of Chen Wenqiang, and it is also the principle of the General Staff. And the General Staff called to inquire. It is estimated that there are also reasons why the Vietnamese anti-French forces are in a hurry to act. In the current situation, Chen Wenqiang does not want to take advantage of the anger of the Yue people.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the established development strategy is still successful. Beyond the Sanjiang River, a large area of western Yunnan and southwestern Yunnan bordering Vietnam, Cambodia, and Burma was occupied by the revolutionary army of the Western Yunnan Military Region, and the farthest counties were Tengchong, Longling, Lianghe, and Yingjiang. It is separated from Baoshan, an important town in Yunnan Province, by only one Nu River.

The left and right rivers in Gui Province, Jingxi and Longzhou, and 100,000 mountains bordering Vietnam, were also occupied by troops of the Gui Provincial Military Region, and they infiltrated and expanded into Guizhou Province, which was equivalent to directly or indirectly containing the Qing troops in Guangdong, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Guizhou provinces.

Although the main force of the Qing army in Yunnan Province "recovered" the lost territory in southeastern Yunnan, the next step was to divide the troops to fight no matter what. or to the west to attack the Western Yunnan Revolutionary Army; Or go east into Guangxi and attack the Gui Provincial Revolutionary Army. In any case, the strategy of luring the enemy or forcing the enemy to divide his troops was realized, and with the exception of the Hubei New Army, the old-style patrol battalions were relatively easy to defeat or annihilate by the revolutionary army. As long as the enemy's vital forces are massively wiped out, the territory occupied will naturally fall into the hands of the revolutionary army.

"The Western Yunnan Military Region fought more than 20 battles, annihilated more than 2,600 enemies, and captured ...... guns and ammunition."

"The Gui Provincial Military Region fought more than 10 battles, destroyed more than 1,000 enemies, and captured ...... guns and ammunition."

As soon as the wireless telegraph was called, Chen Wenqiang quickly got the latest situation report. Judging from the combat achievements, the combat strength of the local Qing army is low, and the strength of the troops is also small, and the revolutionary army's criticism can be said to be overwhelming. Although the captured guns were a bit old, and the ammunition was mostly different from that used by the revolutionary army, it was still a hundred times stronger than the guns of the Jianghu Society.

At this time, it was obvious that it was important for Chen Wenqiang to smuggle machinery and equipment before the incident, and the reloading bullets could be reloaded and used, which was of more strategic significance than transporting hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition. If this is not the case, it will be very difficult to implement the strategy of self-reliance and warfare.

"The banknotes of the joint venture banks should be vigorously circulated in Guangxi and Yunnan, and I can lobby the board of directors, and also promote them in business and through official connections." Chen Wenqiang closed the folder of the intelligence summary and said to Wu Chunyang: "Only in this way can the hundreds of thousands of banknotes in the hands of the revolutionary army be spent and turned into all kinds of materials needed." ”

Wu Chunyang was the old man when the Fuxing Society was founded in Shanghai, and Cai, Zhang and others left one after another, and he and Gong Baoquan took on the work of the Shanghai branch. Gong Baoquan is in charge of external affairs, while he is in charge of internal affairs. Both held important positions in the merchant group, and together with the other members, they firmly held this growing arm.

"You'll have to worry more about the banknotes." Wu Chunyang pondered for a moment and said: "Here in Shanghai, there are still some situations recently, Li Yapu is sending someone to investigate, and I will report to you if there is definite news." ”

"What is going on in the rivers and lakes?" Chen Wenqiang was stunned for a moment and asked, "In Shanghai." Who else dares to argue with Xingyitang? ”

"It's hard to talk about it." Wu Chunyang laughed and said: "Xingyitang is very powerful, and it is a big trend, others don't know that Xingyitang is contributing to the revival of the society, maybe they are trying to win it over, right?" ”

"Alliance, or Restoration?" Chen Wenqiang immediately guessed the approximate. I couldn't help laughing, "It's a pity that they're late." ”

"It's hard to determine which revolutionary group it is." Wu Chunyang paused and said, "Let's talk about it when we figure it out, maybe they don't need to inquire, they will come to visit you, the boss of Xingyi Hall." Jin Sanye is gone, but many people know that the eldest brother of Xingyi Hall is you! ”

"It's quite possible." Chen Wenqiang nodded and said with a smile: "It's better, no one can hide anything in front of me." I want to see what is sacred? ”

"They are not the only ones who want to see you, but the British." Wu Chunyang said: "What are you going to do?" The power of Xingyitang developed rapidly in the British Concession, and if the British wanted to suppress it, it would not be easy to deal with. ”

"Xingyitang is no longer the main one, it's just a name." Chen Wenqiang shook his head lightly and said, "The Chinese Association in Shanghai has developed, and I am not afraid of being suppressed by the British. Now is a critical period of full-fledged cooperation with Germany, which cannot be pretended to be for the British. This is necessary. ”

"You have to be careful with the Germans, too." Wu Chunyang cautiously reminded. said: "There is also the Shanghai government, which also needs you to dredge up and place more people in the patrol police." ”

"The Shanghai General Chamber of Commerce is preparing for the autonomy of the city, and the government doesn't need to dredge it up." Chen Wenqiang smiled and said: "From the business group to draw some shrewd and capable members, the General Chamber of Commerce should unify the patrol police and maintain social order. I can only rely on the business group I can trust. ”

"Then you have to fight for more and get an important position in this autonomous body of the city." Wu Chunyang immediately suggested, "With your prestige and financial resources, this is not difficult. ”

"Of course we have to fight for it." Chen Wenqiang smiled and patted Wu Chunyang's arm, "Revolution." You can't expect the businessmen to act on their own, you have to be led and agitated. ”

"That's right, businessmen have families and businesses, and they are most afraid of turmoil, and revolutionary passion is far from enough." Wu Chunyang nodded in agreement and left.

………………

Chen Wenqiang is busy in Shanghai, his industrial and commercial industry, his revolutionary cause, many people who want to meet him, and many people who he wants to meet. But before the planned things are done, there are always unexpected things to bother him.

"An inch short is an inch long, and when we meet, we ask my father and mother. On March 3, the green water was restored to the ancestral industry. ”

What do you mean? Chen Wenqiang scratched his head and pondered, although he couldn't understand it, he also saw that it was a hidden poem on the rivers and lakes, which had the meaning of choosing a time to do something.

"Brother Zhongnan, I am willing to follow the order of Xu Dashuai, break your bones and recover the Han Dynasty, it is against the oath, and the sky is thundering."

Who is this Xu Dashuai? Chen Wenqiang is still unknown, but the leader of the uprising is certain.

This is information passed on by a member of the Fuxing Association in the patrol team of the potential Shanghai government, a Jianghu Hui party has been arrested, and some alias code has been confessed, indicating that the incident is imminent, and the Shanghai government has reported to the governor of Liangjiang Duanfang for instructions on how to handle it.

Zhongnan, that is, the Anhui and Zhejiang regions. Chen Wenqiang slowly combed through the information, and suddenly noticed that this party member confessed an alias "Guang Manzi". It's a little familiar, Chen Wenqiang frowned, thought hard, and finally his eyes lit up and he remembered.

Xu XL, the word Bosun, alias is "Light Man". When he came to Shanghai to raise funds to build the Chase School, he had a long conversation with Chen Wenqiang and inadvertently revealed the alias and origin of this "light man". That is still a pseudonym that he got from the purpose of "recovering the Han nationality, returning my mountains and rivers, promising the country with his body, and retiring after success" when he participated in the Restoration Meeting.

"Light Man", Anhui Zhejiang, Xu Dashuai...... One point made sense, and the original puzzled problem suddenly opened up. Chen Wenqiang slapped his thigh violently, and he understood that this was the Guangfu Society to start an incident in Anhui and Zhejiang, and the leader was XL.

Chen Wenqiang really didn't guess wrong, at that time, Xu XL not only had a sum of money sponsored by Chen Wenqiang, but also received funding from another businessman, Xu Zhongqing. So, he bought 50 "Houtang Nine Guns" in Shanghai, and 20,000 rounds of bullets, and founded Shaoxing Datong School with Tao Chengzhang and other members of the Restoration Society. And Xiong Qipan, the prefect of Shaoxing, was obviously a confused worm, and he actually believed the reason that "students practice gymnastics and need weapons", and with a stroke of the pen, he approved it.

In order to train its members, Chase Academy promoted Xu XL as the overseer and Huang Yi as the principal. Recruit members of the Hui Party from Jinhua, Chuzhou, and Shaoxing provinces, and conduct short-term revolutionary education and military training for them to train the backbone of the revolution. and drew up a statute: "Whoever graduates from this school shall be subject to the control of the school officer; The students of this school are members of the Restoration Society".

Chase Academy only has a gymnastics specialization, which is divided into two classes: special and ordinary. The special class is for the party aspirants; Some of the ordinary classes are members of the party, and some are progressive youths, and the courses taught in the two classes are mainly military gymnastics and apparatus gymnastics.

In addition, courses in Chinese, English, Japanese, education, ethics, arithmetic, geography, biology, and drawing are taught as appropriate. After graduating, students were issued diplomas by the Qing court, and on the back of the diplomas, the school had the code of the revolutionary organization written on it. The school hall hangs a cloud: "Ten years of lessons, you are in the army, you can trace thousands of years of ancestral rain, and recreate heroes in Yuedi"; Xia Lianyun: "Revenge of the Ninth Generation, the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, may Erduoshi cultivate scales and claws, and do not forget the robbers in the Central Plains."

It was not easy to seek revolution, in order to achieve the goal of opposing Manchuria, Xu XL and others gradually developed the idea of "pouring the Qing court with art", and they planned to use the method of donating officials to make the members of the Guangfuhui study military affairs, and take the opportunity to break into the Qing court in order to grasp military power. So he donated a title to the Qing court and assigned him an alternate in Anhui.

Through the relationship and recommendation of his cousin Yu Liansan, after arriving in Anqing, Xu XL was reused by Anhui Governor Enming (Yu Liansan's protégé), and became the head of the Anhui Patrol Police Department and the office of the Anhui Patrol Police Academy and the superintendent of the army primary school, and had a certain amount of armed force. At the beginning of 1907, Xu XL asked Ma Zonghan to take over the Datong School, and the two were separated in Anhui and Zhejiang to prepare for righteousness.

It's a pity that although Xu XL and others realized that it would be difficult for the Jianghu Hui Party to succeed without revolutionary education and training, they set up the Datong School. However, they still did not fully realize the complexity and looseness of the Jianghu Society, and there were still several months before the time of the uprising, and this news was already known to the Qing government.

Chen Wenqiang still doesn't know the key to it, Xu XL's eagerness to get into trouble is not out of his intention, but the rapid speed of his promotion has caused a high degree of tension and even suspicion in the Restoration Society. In order to prove his revolutionary steadfastness, he decided to speed up the pace of the uprising. (To be continued.) )
