Chapter 143: Don't throw a temper, an iron-blooded dream

“…… Well, the money is spent, everyone disperses, and when there is money, we will come back to the revolution. After a long talk, Chen Wenqiang spread out his hands and asked with a smile: "I don't learn math well, if there is a calculation error, please correct Brother Charlie!"www.biquge.info ”

Charlie Song spewed out rough air from his nostrils, obviously choking with anger, but his mind turned, he looked at Chen Wenqiang thoughtfully, and asked tentatively: "You are so fine, it seems unlikely that you have not experienced it." Qiongzhou Wanning Uprising-"

"It's nothing to do with me." Chen Wenqiang smiled and said, "But I did study some military affairs. You think, according to the financial resources of the Qing court, how many new armies have been organized, raising troops and fighting wars is to burn money, and if you can't burn it, it will be over. Although it is a bit one-sided, I will analyze it according to what Brother Charles said about raising millions. ”

"I'm not going to raise a bar with you." Charlie Song rolled his eyes and crossed his hands in front of his chest, "After dinner, I'll reason carefully with you." ”

Chen Wenqiang smiled and made a strange face, which made the two girls opposite laugh.

…………..

The meals are ordered in restaurants, which is not a luxury, but it is also sumptuous. Chen Wenqiang rarely returned to this home, and there were guests, and he also wanted to make this dinner more lively.

"The current U.S. ambassador to China is Rou Keyi, what is his temperament?" After the meal, Chen Wenqiang invited Charlie Song to drink tea and chat, and asked about some things he cared about, "Was Brother Charlie invited to meet him?" ”

"Yes." Charlie Song thought for a moment and said, "A more sophisticated diplomat can achieve his goal with a condescending reception and an extremely pleasant attitude. What, you're going to deal with him? ”

"Possibly." Chen Wenqiang didn't tell the truth, and paused for a long time. He went on to ask: "What is the situation in the United States?" I can guess that the capitalists are both cautious and stingy about political donations, but what about investing in China? Did U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt utter words of inhibition or encouragement......"

Charlie Song looked at Chen Wenqiang more and more suspiciously, he didn't understand why Chen Wenqiang suddenly cared about these things.

"Business things." Chen Wenqiang explained vaguely: "Not only the United States, but also other countries, if they can provide fair business loans. I'm willing to accept it. ”

"You're going to do something big? Now the average investment is not a problem for you. Charlie Song saw that Chen Wenqiang's mouth was very strict, and it was inconvenient for him to ask deeply, so he said what he knew and saw about the situation in the United States.

Chen Wenqiang listened slowly, and combined with the information he obtained, he felt that borrowing from the United States was not as optimistic as he imagined. However, this is considered from the government level, and if we look at it from a purely commercial point of view, under the anti-monopoly suppression of the "trust blaster" Roosevelt, the big capitalists in the United States should have a great desire to invest their funds internationally.

"After talking about the United States. I want to get down to business. Charlie Song touched the mustache on his lips, frowned slightly and said, "In the car, you are strong words, now, let's talk about it seriously." ”

"I'm not trying to make sense, but I'm going to experience it." Chen Wenqiang shook his head, leaned back in the chair, and put on the most comfortable posture. smiled faintly: "If you don't get into it, you don't know that things that are easy to think about are actually very complicated." It's very complicated. Money, materials, and personnel are indispensable, and continuous support is required. Don't think that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is already a dead tree, if you gather 1,800 people and occupy a few counties and towns, there will be any response from all directions, and the dead tree will fall down. ”

"It's hard to push. Will it fall if you don't push it? Charlie Song said: "If an uprising fails, then a second or third time will come, shaking the foundation of the Qing court, arousing the consciousness of the people, and expanding the influence of the revolution." Sooner or later, it will be successful. ”

"Well, this is not called trouble, it is called trouble, it is called making trouble, making trouble for the Qing court." Chen Wenqiang laughed and said, "It's not a bad strategy. ”

"Didn't the Wanning Uprising also fail?" Charlie Song stared at Chen Wenqiang's expression, and said guessingly: "I don't believe the official articles in the newspaper, and I think that the revival society seems to have other plans, and it is taking the initiative to stop fighting." But that's not what I'm going to talk about, it's about what you interviewed the other day. It seems fair, but it is obvious to praise and belittle the grandson. They are both revolutionary groups and revolutionary leaders, and Beichen is the first to advocate revolution, so it is very inappropriate for you to do so. ”

"It is true that he initiated the revolution, but this does not mean that he is right, let alone that he is the embodiment of the revolution, and no one else can but him." Chen Wenqiang retorted: "You say that I am derogatory, but I think it is a well-intentioned criticism. There is no God in this world, but people make mistakes. If I am not right, he can refute it or ignore it; If I'm right, then he has to think, he has to correct. If you don't even have that bearing, it's really- hehe. ”

"This is about temperament again, is it reasonable to belittle others?" Charlie Song rolled his eyes when he heard this, and said: "Since they are both revolutionary groups, they exclude each other and suppress each other, don't they praise the hearts of the Manchus?" Wouldn't the Alliance, the Revival Society, and the powerful join forces to push the revolution to a climax? ”

"Joining forces? Easier said than done. Chen Wenqiang sighed lightly, shook his head and said: "Don't talk about the issue of dominance, let's talk about the alliance, it's not strong, but it seems to be quite a small external momentum." When it comes to organization, I think it's like a loose gang of gangs; If you talk about financial resources, you rely on fundraising and begging; In terms of program and purpose, it is not as clear and advanced as the revival meeting; If there is unity, the internal strife is also a message that I can get. It is only when the Revival Society sees this that they do not agree and go their own way. Revolution, different paths to the same end, now the road is different, whether they can come together in the future, who knows! ”

"You mean we'll see, and we'll see later?"

"Well, that's it for now."

Seeing Chen Wenqiang nodding firmly, Charlie Song also sighed and said, "I'm not here to be a lobbyist on behalf of the League, I just don't want to see the two revolutionary groups fall into each other's hands." ”

"I know." Chen Wenqiang laughed, "I can trust Brother Charlie's character. I didn't hide my identity from Brother Charlie, but if you don't ask, I don't want to say it. This is the friendship of gentlemen, each of them understands in their hearts, but they do not have to get to the bottom of it. Brother Charlie, if you put aside your personal feelings, you tell the truth. Is it that revival will be more powerful and more hopeful of success? ”

"If you're willing to help the League, it's not the other way around." Charlie Song shook his head helplessly, and said regretfully: "I have promoted you to meet Beichen several times, I hoped that you could follow him, but the result was disappointing. Although you briefly said why. But I was very confused by the lack of words. ”

Chen Wenqiang thought about it, smiled slightly, and said, "Brother Charlie, why are you confused about this? Personal preferences and personalities are different, Beichen and I don't lose our temper, it's as simple as that. ”

Charlie Song smiled bitterly and said no more.

"I heard Xiaoxi say, Erin went to study in the United States? I'm only fourteen or fifteen years old. Brother Charlie was really willing to let her go overseas alone. Chen Wenqiang diverted the topic.

"You have to make your own way." Charlie Song smiled slightly, and said disapprehantly: "In two years, Qinglin and Meilin will also go to the United States, which is about this age." ”

"When they return to China after completing their studies, this revolution will almost succeed, and they will contribute to the construction of the country." Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment and said, "Hmm." I also have a few friends in the U.S. who are having trouble there. They can be enlisted. ”

"The trouble is over." Charlie Song paused and said with a smile: "I'm glad you said so sure." The success of the revolution is also my wish! ”

"Hehe, I've asked Daxian to do the math." Chen Wenqiang tilted his head. smiled at the door: "The little girl comes in, eavesdropping, what does it mean to eat in your mouth?" Watching movies and listening to big dramas? ”

****************************************************************************************

Yazhou base.

In the training ground, the soldiers were fighting against the assassination......

Creeping, leaping, lying down, rolling...... Qiu Jin did a series of movements, and more than a dozen female warriors recruited from Nanyang and the mainland trained together. His clothes were covered in mud and his face was covered in dirt. I can't see what it used to be.

The revival society suddenly died down, some people withdrew to the base, and some people, under the leadership of Wu Luzhen and Xu Chunshan, changed their clothes to "recruit An", and turned into a Qiongzhou patrol battalion.

Most of the people who withdrew to the base were newcomers, that is, the Revival Society decided to attract them after an investigation. Because the backbone personnel know more about obedience and discipline, they can accept it more calmly and do not need to do too much ideological work.

Of course, for newcomers who don't understand, the Revival Society also has a pretty good job of persuading and educating them. The new term "mainland strategy" was put forward at the right time, so that the newcomers could understand that this action was a strategic shift and a relaunch of strength, not a weak compromise.

The hot training and intense study soon dispelled the dissatisfaction and complaints of these newcomers. The next revolution will certainly be even more powerful.

Qiu Jin also thinks the same way. Because Ge Zhichu vaguely revealed to her before being transferred away that within half a year, the revolutionary army would launch a new operation on the mainland, and at that time, it would stick to the end and fight until the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

The imagination is rich, the vision is exciting, Qiu Jin guessed that it could be in Liangguang, or in other coastal provinces, or even Anhui and Zhejiang, which she hoped for. Retreating to the base, she felt more and more the hidden strength of the Revival Society, and became more and more surprised, and also felt that the revolution was most likely to succeed in the hands of the Renaissance Society.

Military uniforms, guns, ammunition, food, daily necessities, etc., to maintain the operation of the base, although Qiu Jin does not know the specific cost, but when he thinks about it carefully, he is not staggered. And looking at the facilities of this base, it is obvious that they were not built in a short period of time, how much money and materials will it cost to support it?

As the saying goes, if you don't belong to your family, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. Replaced by Qiu Jin, that is, he does not experience it personally and does not know the difficulties of the revolution. This is only tossing around in a few counties in Qiongzhou, and this is only one or two thousand people, and most of these people are revolutionary young people who have ideals, beliefs, and are willing to do whatever they want for the revolution. If it is replaced by a Jianghu Hui Party, not only will it be difficult to ensure organizational discipline, but the cost will also increase exponentially.

The whistle blew, and Qiu Jin once again won the first place in the women's team. Panting, but she raised the red flag in her hand excitedly. Later, female soldiers who completed the training project continued to come up to congratulate, and they all rolled like clay figures.

The training is over, the female soldiers have their own rest camp, wash and change clothes, women love beauty is their nature, even if they are tired, they must clean up first.

"Qiu Jin, report to the headquarters immediately." The herald was answered outside the house and turned away.

"I guess I approved you to join the club."

"Didn't you say today that the captain of the women's team was selected, I think it was an official appointment."

"Don't guess, we'll find out when I get back." Qiu Jin meticulously put on the military uniform, sturdy, straight, coupled with the armed belt and military hat, she looks heroic, she really likes this outfit, and hopes to wear the rank mark on her shoulder that proves that she is already a revolutionary soldier, and then charge forward in the future battle, not to let the eyebrows.

Coming to the headquarters with some excitement and a little apprehension, Qiu Jin signed up and met Zhang Ji, the person in charge of the base, who is also the head of the Qiongzhou branch of the Fuxing Association, in the house.

For Qiu Jin, Zhang Ji, who had studied in Japan, had heard of it, but he returned to China earlier and had not met him. But Qiu Jin found the revolutionary army by himself, was recommended to join the medical team, and performed outstandingly, Zhang Ji was reported, knew and understood.

"Comrade Qiu Jin, please take a seat." Zhang Ji poured water with a smile and said, "I've heard your name for a long time, but unfortunately I haven't seen it before." Fortunately, because of the revolution, we will not only know each other, but also be comrades-in-arms who will fight side by side. ”

"Minister Zhang, you're polite." Qiu Jin's flamboyant personality has been somewhat hidden, and the requirements for discipline in the revolutionary army are extremely strict, so that people will change unconsciously.

"Well, let's get down to business." Zhang Ji nodded, his face became solemn, "After investigation, the organization has approved your application and decided to officially accept you as a member of the Revival Society, and I will take the oath to join the Association tonight." Seeing Qiu Jin's face beaming, Zhang Jiye smiled and continued: "There is another one, which is the arrangement of your work, and I want to ask for your opinion." ”

Qiu Jin immediately straightened her waist a little more and waited solemnly for Zhang Ji to continue.

"One arrangement is to send you back to Shanghai to launch and host the China Women's Daily." Zhang Ji pondered for a moment, "You are very literate, and you have edited the monthly magazine "Vernacular" in Japan, advocating women's rights and publicizing women's emancipation, and you should be handy and familiar with such work." ”

If it was before, Qiu Jin would definitely agree to come down, but now, she thought about it carefully and asked, "What about the other arrangements?" If it doesn't affect my membership, I would prefer to be in the army, even if it's an ordinary soldier. ”

Zhang Ji was stunned for a moment, shook his head with some regret, and said: "Actually, in the propaganda position, you should be able to give full play to your strengths." But since you have such persistence, I deeply admire and be accommodating. As he spoke, he took out a pair of non-commissioned officer ranks from the drawer, got up and solemnly held it to Qiu Jin, "Non-commissioned Officer Qiu, report to the military academy tomorrow, you will be the first female non-commissioned officer in the revolutionary army, I hope you can grow up in battle, temper in the revolution, and become a real revolutionary soldier." ”

Qiu Jin saluted upright, took the rank, and felt a fever on her body, and this was a big step closer to her iron-blooded dream of charging into battle.
