"It's better to call me an adult, and I won't show my stuffing when I get used to it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Chen Wenqiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Do you understand the instructions of the headquarters?" The nature of the work has changed, do you think you can adapt to it? ”

"Yes, sir." Xu Xueqiu smiled with relief and joked, "I also have an official body, and I donated a Taoist!" ”

"Then it's more convenient." Chen Wenqiang smiled, and then said: "In addition to working part-time in the newly established Chinese Association in Guangdong and helping Chen Yongbo transform the party, you also have an official position of persuasion. What the task is, I believe you also know, that is, to call on the overseas Chinese in Chaoshan in Nanyang to come back to invest and carry out construction, and to provide them with as much convenience as possible. ”

"I have sent a letter to my relatives and friends in Singapore asking them to spread the word widely." Xu Xueqiu paused and said, "Actually, adults have stronger appeal and greater influence. Overseas Chinese return to their hometowns to invest in construction, either to be patriotic or to care for their hometowns, but making money is the same purpose. The business of adults in industry and commerce is obvious to all, and the newspaper media have already issued a call, and a large number of overseas Chinese businessmen will certainly respond. ”

"Maybe so, but I can't rely on me, we have to work together." Chen Wenqiang stretched out his hand and beckoned, pointed to the map on the table and said: "The pirates have basically been wiped out, Nanao Island has been controlled by me, relying on the port of Shantou, there are very good conditions for the development of industry and commerce in the Chaoshan area." As for the party, it is naturally good to be able to merge into the guild for transformation, and I will not be polite if I am unruly. In short, the purpose of clearing the townships, suppressing bandits, and suppressing the party is all for the purpose of developing the economy and creating a relatively safe and stable investment environment. ”

"There is also the Chaoshan Railway, which is also a favorable condition." Xu Xueqiu paused and asked tentatively: "What about the expansion of the armament, if there is a reasonable name, do you want to do it?" ”

"Where's the money. What about supplies? Chen Wenqiang shook his head vigorously and said, "The police are to be recruited and expanded gradually, the army, let's not consider it for the time being." The situation is already obvious, the Qing army in Guangdong, whether it is a patrol battalion. Or the new army, they will be concentrated in the area where Guangdong and Guangxi meet. In the future, the police will undertake the task of maintaining law and order and suppressing civil unrest. In other words, the police will become the most powerful local force in Guangdong Province. ”

"I see." Xu Xueqiu nodded and said: "The Southwest Revolution has attracted the Qing army in Guangdong, as long as the police are effective, as soon as the time comes, this Guangdong will be at your fingertips." ”

"Therefore, now develop Guangdong's economic construction. In fact, it is also to add strength to the revolution. Chen Wenqiang leaned back in the chair and said with a slight sneer: "There is such an argument that economic development and national construction should be after the overthrow of the Qing court. Otherwise, it will be a country that is not mine, and the desire is the strength of other peoples. Hehe, do you think it makes sense? ”

Xu Xueqiu thought for a while and said: "Developing the economy and carrying out construction is a move to strengthen the country sooner or later. If it is because it is the Manchu Qing Dynasty. It is obviously biased to regard these measures as serving and serving the Qing court. Factories and enterprises were built. After the success of the revolution, it is also the foundation of a strong country. Moreover, the great powers are waiting for us, and the development of industrial and commercial industries will also be the strength to resist foreign aggression in the future. ”

"Yes, industry and commerce are the foundation of a strong country, but not the foundation of a strong court." Chen Wenqiang nodded appreciatively. He said: "After the revolution, whether the country is poor and extremely backward, or does it already have some industrial base, supplemented by advanced political concepts and management methods, it can quickly embark on the road to becoming a strong country." Isn't that hard to understand? ”

"This-" Xu Xueqiu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm still too anxious, so that what I see is a little extreme." ”

Chen Wenqiang smiled faintly and said, "The Alliance, no, it should be the Chinese Revolutionary Party, is it still in contact with you?" ”

As soon as he mentioned this, Xu Xueqiu was angry, and said angrily: "If you succeed, you will take credit for yourself, and if you fail, you will blame others, and honesty is not a gentleman's doing." The defeat of the Huanggang Uprising, is it my fault? However, all parties blamed Xueqiu's poor preparation, especially Hu Hanmin, who was the most fierce, and made a report in 10,000 words, attributing all the mistakes to Xueqiu, and vigorously denouncing them, so that Beichen also believed that the responsibility for the failure of the Eastern Affair was all on Xueqiu alone. ”

Chen Wenqiang pursed his lips and said with a smile: "This is indeed a bit harsh. If the responsibility for the defeat is aside, do you think the Huanggang Uprising can be sustained? ”

"It's hard." Xu Xueqiu shook his head categorically and said: "Even if there are thousands of members of the party, even if there are two or three thousand guns, it will not take too much time, and it is impossible to succeed." ”

"It's hard to understand that you know that it will be difficult to succeed, but you still insist on launching it." Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment and said: "There are many Hui, Mei, and Chaoshan Hui parties, and most of the Chinese Revolutionary Party still wants to launch in these areas. As for what to do, I have a point. ”

"I'll reflect on this." Xu Xueqiu hesitated for a moment and said: "The Chinese Revolutionary Party has recently become fierce in its attack on adults, denouncing you as a butcher who kills anti-Qing righteous people. Adults should also pay more attention to safety when they are running around. ”

"Just them?" Chen Wenqiang smiled proudly and said, "I can only play tricks, why am I afraid?" However, the literary style is not bad, what 'this murderer who is addicted to murder will be valued by the court, so that it will benefit Zhang Qifu'. How would they know that the more fierce the scolding, the more open the official's career will be, and the smoother his actions will be. Speaking of which, I have to thank them! ”

"Adults better be careful." Xu Xueqiu smiled bitterly and persuaded: "There are many weak scholars in the Chinese of the Chinese Revolutionary Party, but there are also reckless and outlaws in the rivers and lakes. ”

"I'll be careful." Chen Wenqiang patted Xu Xueqiu's arm and said: "Although we can't charge into battle like our comrades in the southwest, our work is also indispensable, and all kinds of support for them is also an important factor in achieving victory." Therefore, if you are patient and concentrate on your work, your contribution will not be buried. ”

"I understand that." Xu Xueqiu paused, smiled to herself, and said: "I know my catties and two pounds, if you want to go into battle and kill, you have to learn military affairs and train again." ”

"Revolutionary work does not distinguish between high and low, and this is called making the best use of people's talents." Chen Wenqiang took out a list and handed it to Xu Xueqiu, "Remember all this." They are reliable people, and if you need them, you can contact them for help. ”

"Yes." Xu Xueqiu hurriedly took it over and memorized it carefully, the police chief, the Nanao County Order, the deputy of the Chaoshan Railway Patrol Office, etc., either have the right or have soldiers. It is indeed a powerful arm.

The headquarters of the Tokyo League joined the Great Alliance of the Revolutionary Front in its own name, and the original League collapsed, leaving only the newly established Chinese Revolutionary Party and the Nanyang League, which was integrated with it. This was obviously a surprise to Beichen and his cronies, and it took a moment of consternation before they realized the seriousness of the problem.

For a new brand to be recognized, it needs time, people's understanding, and the support of "performance". And the Chinese Revolutionary Party, in addition to Beichen's blind self-confidence. These conditions are not available. The Tokyo Alliance's change of course has deprived them of their largest gathering place for international students.

"Sun and Huang have not been in harmony for a long time, Huang has implemented it, and Sun Qiao has scrolled and looked forward, and the Huang Party hates it very much. Now, in times of trouble, internal strife and division are really the explosion of hatred. In response to this result, the leader of the royalists, Liang Qichao, wrote a letter to a friend. Speculation was carried out not without malice.

"Look at Huang X, isn't it a person who lives and dies with Mr. Sun? And to fight for power and hold a grudge. It is good to guess outside and inside, and it is similar to Yang Xiuqing. Beichen's confidant Wang Jingwei was furious, comparing Huang X with Yang Xiuqing, the ambitious king of the East who was plotting to set up Hong Xiuquan and the Taiping Heavenly State-owned enterprises, and continuously condemned and slandered him.

No matter how much speculation, slander, and venting are made, in fact, the Chinese Revolutionary Party has fallen into a trough. Although Beichen once thought that the alliance would be made because of him, and because of his fame, he could recruit talents from all over the world. But in fact, the signboard of the Chinese Revolutionary Party is rarely recognized, the Tokyo base has been lost, and the hearts of the people in Nanyang are also tilted towards the revival society, which is doing its best work.

Whether Beichen recognized it or not, the revolution he advocated needed the help of people like Huang Xing. There are no more revolutionary practitioners. No matter how lofty and brilliant his ideals are, it is difficult to implement them, but they are just a flash in the pan.

Of course, it is not certain that all of the Tokyo Alliance will join the United Front. Liu Kuiyi, Wang Jingwei and others are still in Tokyo, and some people from the former Tokyo Alliance also chose to stay, but after this heavy setback, morale was low and people's morale was weakened. Most of the Chinese students in Tokyo were no longer optimistic about their revolutionary future, but were more concerned about the initiatives and actions of the Reconstruction Society.

Imagining himself as Moses of China, believing that all living beings are destined to be led by himself to the land of hope, Beichen did not reflect on the inappropriateness of his words and deeds, but went farther and farther and more extreme.

Speaking of which, the fact that the Tokyo Alliance was able to join the United Front with a majority opinion shows that the people have been dissatisfied with Beichen for a long time.

"Abandon the broad sense and take the narrow sense, organize the South Road Alliance as the base camp, and never ask questions in the Tokyo headquarters", "Su Ri cannot be open and honest, treat others with an open heart, and act close to autocracy"...... These dissatisfaction with Beichen actually have some truth. If Beichen accepts it humbly, or treats each other honestly, and with Huang X's help, it is possible for the situation to calm down.

However, Beichen responded with a strong line of suspicion, repeatedly did not take the Tokyo League in his eyes, and even said such heartless words as "the League has been abolished, and the powerful can stand out from the crowd", which undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, and thus made the joint move of the Revival Association a great success.

No matter how Beichen propagated that "my business revolution was before the First Sino-Japanese War, there were no international students to brag about me at this time." Today, the atmosphere is gradually opening up, and people studying abroad regard revolution as a great and glorious cause." The situation is grim and realistic for the Chinese Revolutionary Party.

In Nanyang, the people were either enthusiastic about the revolution and rejoiced in the action of the Revival Society in the southwest, and the participants were numerous; Or optimistic about the constitution of the Qing court, and moved by the olive branch extended by Chen Wenqiang. There are fewer and fewer people interested in the Chinese Revolutionary Party, and it is becoming more and more difficult to raise funds and recruit people.

"Looking at the psychology of overseas Chinese, they can only raise funds after knowing that they will be in trouble. There is a revival meeting in the southwest, and most of the Qing troops in Guangdong are deployed, and the place is empty. Today, there is a Chen who is obsessed with killing anti-Qing righteous people and is willing to be a slave of the Manchu Dynasty. Under the terror of the bloody wind and rain, there will inevitably be fierce people in the mountains and forests who will rise up to resist, and this is an opportunity for our party......"

Beichen gave instructions, but decided to take Guangdong as the target and launch the Lulin and Huidang uprisings, so as to make a name for the Chinese Revolutionary Party and reinvigorate its morale. As for whether it is as criticized by people, "rash and reckless, and unable to maintain after defeat, it is especially unpopular", Beichen does not care.

There may be another uprising in Guangdong, Chen Wenqiang does not know about this, after dealing with the affairs of Chaozhou, he hurried back to Guangzhou, saying that it was to welcome Li Zhun who returned from the sea patrol, but it was still a little late, but Li Zhun was greeting him.

On this trip, Li Zhun led his troops to inspect the Xisha islands, carved stones on Fubo Island, named the 15 islands of the Xisha Islands, and used the newly purchased British ranging tape measure, sea locator, theodolite, and other equipment to measure and inspect the Xisha Islands, Dongsha Islands, and Nansha Islands, and obtained some very valuable data.

“…… In the vicinity of the dark sands of Zengmu, the wave height reached more than ten feet, and the ship could not get close, so in order to protect the ship, it had to return to the sea. ”

"The warship Chenhang ran aground more than 30 nautical miles south of Woody Island in the Paracel Islands, causing water leakage under the front and bottom of the hull. Fortunately, there were large ships fixed with cables, and there were sailors who worked hard to repair them, so that the ship was not lost ......."

Listening to Li Zhun's narration, Chen Wenqiang smiled happily, raised his glass from time to time to signal to the officers and soldiers of the sailors who went to the banquet, and drank heartily.

It should be said that Li Zhun and the pipe belts and sailors of these warships are all competent. Before that, they had not sailed to the far seas, but only patrolled the coast of Guangdong to carry out the tasks of anti-smuggling escort and anti-piracy. The same was true of Li Zhun, but he and his officers and men were aroused by the enthusiasm of patriotism to defend the sea frontier, and learned by doing, and finally let this small fleet cruise smoothly.

"Lord Li's cruise can be described as a high degree of hard work and benefits." Chen Wenqiang stretched out his hand and pointed to a few of the guests on the table, and said with a smile: "These are all overseas Chinese businessmen in Nanyang who care about the country, and there are data on Lord Li's sea patrol, if you have the intention of developing and building the island, it can be regarded as the right time." Of course, if you want to invest and build in Guangdong, we will also provide convenience within our ability. ”

"If it weren't for Lord Chen's help, this official would have been cruising, but he couldn't." Li Zhun turned around and put gold on Chen Wenqiang's face, and said with a smile: "Lord Chen has contributed money, and this official has made some small efforts, and in the near future, an exhibition of the South China Sea Islands will be held in the Admiralty Mansion, displaying sea patrol photos, maps and precious seafood in the South China Sea. ”
