Whether human nature is ugly or good has been discussed from ancient times to the present day, and there has been no result. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf human nature is ugly at the beginning, then is there no goodness in the world?

Chen Wenqiang once pondered and found his own answer: if morality can be restrained, morality is strong and can restrain people's bad behavior. But if society falls into a state of chaos and the social morality that restricts everyone no longer exists, the ugly side of human nature will be ruthlessly exposed. The dissatisfaction in life, jealousy, greed, and violence, at this time, are magnified like a magnifying glass by multipliers, and are released without limit, forming a huge destructive force.

It doesn't matter if it's good, it's just relative, it's just a state that hasn't been instigated, it's not stimulated. Everyone has a beast in their hearts, and every turmoil gives people the opportunity to release the ugliness, cruelty, and savagery in human nature.

Although Chen Wenqiang personally sat in charge, he suppressed the small gangsters in the rebel army with an iron fist, and maintained the social order in the occupied towns with killing. But he saw a lot, and what he saw with his own eyes made him deeply wary of the destructiveness of the revolution and the indulgence of human nature, and he also admired Liang Qichao's worries.

Liang Qichao clearly pointed out in the most important polemical articles, such as "On Enlightened Autocracy", "On the Gains and Losses of Racial Revolution and Political Revolution", and "The Theory of Wisdom and Reason of Political Science Scholar Bolun", that revolution will inevitably kill people and shed blood, and that it is an ominous thing after all, and a "great misfortune" for the country and the people. At home, the revolution is prone to civil strife and separatism, and abroad, it is easy to invite interference and cause the disaster of partition. and "revolution and resumption of production".

In the end, the people can only entrust their freedom to one person or one party in order to save their lives and property, "this is the origin of the democratic autocracy"; Moreover, it is not easy to build after the destruction, and the cost of the revolution cannot be written off in one go, but will eventually be repaid by future generations. Therefore, revolution should not be taken lightly unless it is absolutely necessary.

On the other hand, the arguments of the revolutionary party in the League. It's too much to take for granted. They believed that the revolutionary army would only be full and not xenophobic, would not disturb the "property of outsiders", and would not change foreign treaties, and that the great powers would not only not interfere, but would sympathize with the Chinese revolution. Internally, they believe that the revolutionary army will not repeat the mistakes of China's history of changing dynasties and separating the world. Because the republican revolution has no struggle for the throne and no reason for civil strife, and the Chinese revolution will also learn the lessons of the French revolution's terror dictatorship, the revolution will be happy and will not have any external troubles or internal worries.

Throughout history, soon after the founding of the country, the revolutionary party that created the republic angrily accused the Republic of China of falling into a "false republic", and then the dictatorship of the single man and the restoration of the imperial system. Then came the division of the localities, the division of the north and the south, and then the coming of the great chaos and the rise of the revolution...... which was the result of the revolutionary civil strife that Liang Qichao repeatedly warned about and the revolutionary party repeatedly denied. After all, Outer Mongolia was truly independent (although it was initially false independence and true annexation to Russia), and Tibet and Xinjiang were almost "independent......

Although Liang Qichao's unfortunate remarks did not prove that the revolution was wrong and that the royalist constitution was right, his historical penetrating vision could make Chen Wenqiang seriously think about the choice of the revolutionary road and method. and the incorporation or transformation of the current rebel army.

Withdraw from the territory occupied and fight long distances. It is to avoid the edge of the Qing army, to induce it to divide its troops or to make it tired; At the same time, it is also a cleansing and reorganization of the righteous army, and it is also an education and propaganda for the people along the way. And close to Wuzhi Mountain, the rebel army can also rely on the mountains and jungles to deal with the Qing army and hold on for a long time. So that the revival will stand tall and continue to exert influence and appeal.

Chen Wenqiang can already sit firmly on the horse, this is a good horse, but it will take some time to control it well. And his groom was also replaced. His name is Fu Changsuo, but people call him "Knife and Axe Man", and he is also willing to be called so. Because, he always had an axe pinned to his waist, and he had used this axe to chop the heads of several Qing soldiers.

"Hold the reins short when you run, and don't pull too tightly when jumping on the horse, otherwise the horse's chew will get into the horse's mouth and throw the man off." Chen Wenqiang can ride a horse, in his previous life, in the equestrian club in Shanghai, he had studied, and now, he is pulling the long lock.

"Yes, sir." Fu Changsuo jumped off the horse and replied respectfully.

"Do you like military life?" Chen Wenqiang asked casually.

"Yes, sir."

"Do you want to command an army in the future?"

"Perhaps......" the axeman hesitated, "yes." ”

Chen Wenqiang smiled, stretched out his hand and said, "Show me your axe." ”

Fu Changsuo hesitated to take off the axe and handed it over. Chen Wenqiang took it and looked at it carefully: the long wooden handle was inserted in the slot of the axe, and it was very energetic to pick it up.

"What do you think of this army?" Chen Wenqiang threw the axe to Fu Changsuo, wanting to get the most pertinent evaluation from this guy.

"Well, that's good, sir." Fu Changsuo paused for a moment, and then added: "Whoever spoils a woman will cut off his head; Whoever robs the common people will be beheaded. This is good. ”

Very simple and very energetic, Chen Wenqiang nodded appreciatively. In the eyes of the common people, this is a good army, very simple.

"Do you know what the revolution is all about?" Chen Wenqiang opened his mouth and asked, "Why did you join the revolutionary army?" ”

Fu Changsuo blinked his eyes, a little confused, and replied after a while: "Qing soldiers are not a good thing, those big officials are also very bad, it is naturally good to beat them and kill them." Moreover, there are fewer taxes ......"

Chen Wenqiang smiled, and Fu Changsuo replied very interestingly, but this was exactly what he thought in his heart. Revolution should not be the preserve of the intellectual, but the common people should also be involved, and it seems that a simpler slogan and a more understandable call are needed.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Chen Wenqiang made a gesture and explained: "What kind of life do you want to get in the future when you join the revolutionary army?" ”

Fu Changsuo thought about it for a while, and said uncertainly: "There is food, clothing, land, housing, not being bullied, and ......."

Worrying about the country and the people is the idea of intellectuals, and the most immediate demand of the common people is not a problem to be solved by the revolution? Just overthrowing the imperial court and changing the form of government, does it mean that the revolution is successful?

Chen Wenqiang smiled and patted Fu Changsuo's arm hard. Roll over your horse and walk slowly.

Outside Lingshui County.

After Wu Luzhen led the team to rendezvous with Xu Chunshan's headquarters, he went down to Lingshui and Baoting under the banner of the righteous army, and the battle was easy, and from top to bottom, there was a feeling of underestimating the enemy and optimism. Of course. This is also a normal thing, after all, judging from the comparison of forces between the enemy and us in Qiongzhou, victory is completely possible.

"Lure the enemy deep and ambush the patrol battalion?" Wu Luzhen looked at Chen Wenqiang's secret letter in the tent, glanced at the messenger in contemplation, and probably couldn't ask anything, so he continued to read the letter.

In Chen Wenqiang's vision, Wu Luzhen's men and horses should also move closer to Qiongzhong, or ambush the patrol battalion. Or make plans as the case may be. Because of the tight time, Chen Wenqiang set a time for himself to be a month and a half, and if he wants to get out of the rebel army, he must arrange the rest of the matter as soon as possible.

Quite complicated! Wu Luzhen looked at Chen Wenqiang's idea and nervously thought about whether to choose simple and easy or complex and changeable, whether it was not so easy to choose.

And the Mannings uprising came at this time. It is true that a demarcation point has been reached, and it is a dead end. Or persist for a long time, the pros and cons of this are really difficult to judge.

After a long time, Wu Luzhen raised her head, stared at Ah Mao and asked in a deep voice, "Can you guarantee to kill Zheng Hongming?" ”

"It should be fine." Ah Mao was more confident, paused, and reminded: "Big brother said that you want to send someone to cooperate." will not make people suspicious. ”

"I understand." Wu Luzhen nodded, thought for a while and said, "Time is very tight, I will send a team of people to follow you to Qiongzhong, and put on the clothes of the patrol battalion." ”

"You don't need too many people, it's better to be able to run. If you can trust it, don't be caught, that's reluctant. A cat did not forget to remind.

"That's nature." Wu Luzhen knew that the stakes were very high, and in order to fully grasp the command of the righteous army, Zheng Hongming must be eliminated, and he could not show his feet.

"Then I'll wait outside." Ah Mao belongs to Chen Wenqiang's cronies, and he is not familiar with Wu Luzhen, and he lacks a little respect when he speaks.

Wu Luzhen nodded, watched Ah Mao get out of the tent, called the two backbone of the revival association, and probably relayed the content of the secret letter, asking for their opinions.

"There are too many variables to master." Zhang Ji frowned tightly and stated his opinion, "A patrol battalion can be completely annihilated, and if there are more, different strategies must be adopted, and in the end, it depends on the attitude of the Guangdong government to determine the success or failure of the plan." is so complicated, there is not much hope of success, and Lao Chen is a little too taken for granted. ”

"I don't think there are a few patrol battalions, even if they all come, there are only more than 1,000 people, so let's be ready to defeat them completely." Chen Zixin thought about it and said: "Lao Chen can't be exposed, but we don't care. If the Qing army in Guangdong is also mobilized, it is a big deal for us to enter Wuzhi Mountain and engage with the enemy for a long time. With Yazhou in the hands of Lao Chen and Lao Wan, there should be no shortage of our personnel and materials. ”

"If you want to fight, do your best, that's what I mean." As a military general, Wu Luzhen naturally hopes to show his strengths, and it is indeed difficult to grasp the calculation of the strength to fight the Qing army as Chen Wenqiang said, "Of course, Lao Chen's idea is also very good, which can greatly increase the territory that our revival society actually controls in Qiongzhou." I think we will act according to a simple and easy strategy, and Lao Chen's side, try to follow his vision, whether it succeeds or not, we can't do anything. After all, it is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. ”

"That's right, no matter how well Lao Chen thinks about it, if the Qing court doesn't cooperate, there is no way." Zhang Ji agreed and said: "However, Shouqing's identity should not be exposed for the time being, if the situation really develops as Lao Chen envisioned, there is room for turnaround." ”

"Go up to the top of Xu Chun Mountain, I think he can still be trusted." Chen Zixin said: "As soon as Zheng Hongming dies, it is not impossible for him to control the rebel army. ”

"Then it's decided." Wu Luzhen finally made a decision.

……………

Struggle will lead to success, and dreams will always come true. In Chen Wenqiang's view, it is a child's words, although many adults also use it as an inspiration.

Because God only gave everyone the luck of being alive, and did not give everyone the promise of a big fish. Any place or work is just an orbit that you are running in the moment, but it is not destined to be the sky in which you can fly.

Now this is the case, although he is known as "Wu Guang" and is known as "Wu Shuai", but he commanded thousands of troops and became a famous general on the battlefield, Chen Wenqiang asked himself if it was not that material. Or the concept that he has always adhered to, the profession is different, and he can't do it blindly.

In order to quit his current role as soon as possible, Chen Wenqiang must kill Zheng Hongming, so that no one will be able to suppress and control him after he leaves. And the candidate to replace Zheng Hongming is not only Xu Qingshan, but also Li Jiajun, and even Wu Luzhen can also turn from dark to light.

The banner of the rebel army could not fall, and retreating into the mountains and forests to continue to hold on seemed to be more conducive to the development and growth of the Renaissance Society. The self-respect of raising thieves is also conducive to the expansion of Qiongzhou merchant groups and militia groups. Another point is that persisting in armed struggle for a long time is also extremely useful for training soldiers with actual combat experience.

Of course, it would be even better if the plan of "fake recruitment" could go well. However, as Wu Luzhen and others have worried, the success of the plan depends on the attitude of the Guangdong government, and it is indeed difficult to grasp.

led the righteous army to Qiongzhong, Chen Wenqiang pondered a lot along the way, and also came to a similar conclusion to Wu Luzhen, that is, "the plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky".

When it comes to the track of life, Chen Wenqiang has his own perception and a more accurate positioning. Before he was on the battlefield, he might have been a fierce and thrilling yearning; And after this experience, he began to get bored, began to realize his shortcomings, and was eager to get out of it and use a professional to take over.

The ability to reflect sharply on one's own shortcomings, or the reasons for his failures, is undoubtedly an excellent characteristic of Chen Wenqiang. Although the Wanning Uprising has been successful and victorious so far, Chen Wenqiang has seen too many problems that need to be corrected.

Chen Wenqiang does not want to be an afterthought, nor does he want to condescendingly use the results of later historical research to show his cleverness. It's like saying to another person who is in a low mood, "I knew it was going to be like this, I knew it wasn't going to work......," is very disgusting and disgusting.

Don't forget the past, and get up again if you fail, as long as you still have the physical strength, you can still persevere. But no matter how stupidly you don't change your strategy, you can only fall down and get up, fall down and get up again, except for senseless stubbornness, it will not help at all.

As a latecomer, Chen Wenqiang wants to be a coach, a coach who calmly observes from the sidelines, reminding his own side who is fighting: "The opponent is strong, but it is not without flaws, be careful with the left hook, protect the abdomen, beware of the right straight punch......"

It doesn't have to be too detailed, it doesn't have to be exhaustive. As long as China opens its mind and imagines this possibility, there will naturally be people to study, explore, and improve. Chen Wenqiang doesn't want to be a chattering old woman, and he doesn't want to be a big show that he can do everything, which makes people feel that he is raising his face and appearing everywhere; He wants to be a lamp in the dark, not too bright, but it can guide the way and give hope.
