Chapter 224: Be open and honest, thunder and clear the township

From giving up gloomily and leaving helplessly, to entering the freshness and shock of entering the base area of Yunnan Province, the ups and downs of Huang X's mood experience are probably unknown to anyone, only he knows best. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although it was just a simple visit, it also made Huang X's depressed mood dissipated, and he felt excited and excited again.

Judging from the background, Huang X's family is a famous family in Changsha, Hunan, and there are officials in the clan for generations. The Manchu Qing dynasty came to dominate the Central Plains, which brought about changes in the life of the family, that is, it established a sense of distance between the members of the family and the regime. After hundreds of years of persistence, I am afraid that there are few people who have such historical feelings as the Huang family. According to his own understanding, reading is not for the sake of seeking knowledge, but for the purpose of seeking "true knowledge".

From the perspective of knowledge, Huang X himself has been a Xiucai, and before studying in Japan, he has "learned Dongpo, Wenzong Hanliu", and the foundation of the old school is not shallow. In this family background and cultural background, Huang Xing's sense of historical mission is almost predestined. He participated in the revolution to a large extent because he was called by history.

And Huang X determined from the lessons of history that the revolutionary cause "must not have the slightest selfish intentions, private opinions, private interests, and private intentions", which can also explain why among the revolutionaries of the League, his executive power and prestige once surpassed Beichen, but he was always unwilling to replace him.

Humility naturally has a reason, not wanting to repeat the mistakes of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, perhaps a more important factor. But this does not mean that Huang X is a fanatical personality cult, he should be loyal to the revolutionary cause, and he is willing to play a supporting role for the revolutionary cause. For Huang X, a revolutionary whose purpose is to establish a modern democratic form of government, it is impossible for him to be loyal to one person.

In the revolutionary base areas in the southwest, Huang X saw a well-equipped and well-disciplined army, a young and energetic revolutionary youth, a political, economic, and military system that was gradually and orderly operational, and a flame of revolutionary hope. What he saw was that the cause he was fighting for was moving towards a bright future under the leadership of the Renaissance Society.

Isn't this what he thinks about day and night, isn't this what he wants to achieve, isn't this what he wants to devote himself to?

From a small point of view, he was humble in the League, so as not to divide; In the big picture, why should he cling to the interests of a small group. And ignore the ideals of the revolution and the great goal of the revolution?

Since the bull's ear of the revolution has been held by the Renaissance Society, and since the position of the Renaissance Association in leading the revolution has become unshakable, is it necessary to fight for the so-called orthodoxy of the revolution, ignore the revolutionary situation that is in full swing here, and start anew to carry out an uprising that costs money and labor and has little hope of success?

"If Brother Keqiang is a revolution, he doesn't need to have a gateway view. The great goal of the revolution is the same for us, and it can be said that we have the same goal. Song Fuhua picked up the wine jug and poured it full for Huang X. With four small dishes on the table, the two old friends were finally able to sit together, drink lightly, and reveal their hearts.

The alliance between the Tokyo Alliance and the Revival Society, Huang X has been informed. At this point, the only thing he feels sorry for is Beichen. And those members of the Tokyo Alliance, Huang X saw the strength of the Renaissance Society. and the hope of the success of the revolution, I feel that they have also chosen a brighter revolutionary path.

"I'm too worried at first." Huang X cleaned up his mood. Raised his glass and touched Song Fuhua, smiled bitterly, and said: "If it weren't for the revolution, I wouldn't have come here." Those who understand me know my revolutionary aspirations, but those who do not understand me will see me as a wall-to-wall grass that tends to be inflammatory. ”

"What is there to fear of slander?" Song Fuhua took a sip of wine lightly and smiled faintly. said: "The general trend of the revolution has been achieved, Keqiang's brother forgets his selfishness, and resolutely devotes himself to it, which is the work of the big husband." ”

"The general trend of the revolution has indeed been set off by your association, and the success of the revolution has seen the light of day. This is a good thing to be happy and uplifting in any case. Huang X praised it, and then emphasized: "But I won't join your club, so as not to ......"

"Lest some people slander Brother Keqiang for coveting power and being bought by the association." Song Fuhua nodded with a smile and said: "The establishment of the United Front is for this purpose, and this association does not force members of other revolutionary groups to join, but also sets up a joint committee to unify command and transfer. ”

"Well-thought-out, far-reaching, and a little ......" Huang X shook his head, glanced at Song Fuhua, and asked tentatively: "I'm afraid this is not from your handiwork, right?" Whether it is Mr. Chen Sheng of your association or not, it is in line with his style of acting. ”

"Hehe, this is collective wisdom." Song Fuhua slyly avoided this question and said with a smile: "Brother Keqiang, my brother has always admired your ideas in revolutionary strategy and meticulous deployment. How about today's opportunity to talk about wine? ”

This is private communication, and Huang X understands this. He made it clear that he would not join the Renaissance Society, and naturally he would have to sit on the committees of the United Front. Song Fuhua discussed with him first, and also tried to avoid future disputes.

In order to carry out the revolutionary cause, it is necessary to have a revolutionary ideology. In terms of attaching importance to the ideological resources of modern society, Huang X's understanding is very correct.

When the members of the League returned to China to instigate the uprising of the Hui Party, Huang X instructed them to pay more attention to their ideological guidance: "Today's initiative is a national revolution, not a heroic revolution in ancient times. The people of Honghui still overthrew the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in order to attack the wisdom of Han Gaozu, Ming Taizu, and Hong Tianwang, and had the heart of the imperial system, and did not know the truth of the republic. It is advisable to give guidance from various aspects of nationalism and nationalism. ”

In this respect, Huang X and the Renaissance Society have similar strategies, and they both realize that it is difficult for the Party to succeed without ideological education and organizational reform.

When it comes to specific revolutionary strategies, Huang X does not fully agree with Beichen's long-standing view of the uprising in remote areas. "The matter of Guangdong does not have to be remote, but can be in the provincial capital." As soon as a revolution breaks out in one province, the provinces will be moved by the wind, and "there will be a sound in the valley, and all the mountains will respond."

According to Huang X's idea at that time, if he could win the battle of the Guangdong Provincial Congress, he could arouse the revolutionary forces of the whole country. Once the revolution is won in Guangdong, the revolutionary army can go north and attack Hunan and Hubei.

Of course, Huang X did not know that the Revival Society already had a similar strategic plan, and he made some corrections to his ideas in light of the current revolutionary situation.

Since the revolution had already begun in the southwest, it was based on this. Recruit troops and buy horses, trying to recover Guangdong, and then go on a northern expedition...... The second half of this is the same as he envisioned.

"What is the appropriate place and method for the comrades who practice the revolution to discuss the difficulties? The revolution of our generation could not be extinguished by the ignorant citizens of Beijing who were stealing peace, nor could it cooperate with the conspirators of the Janissaries of other races, but it was our people who made trouble. It is only advisable to adopt the method of dominating one province and rising up with each province. ”

Huang X's final conclusion is not much different from the strategy of the Revival Society, and his attitude towards the Party is also similar to that of the Revival Society, which makes Song Fuhua secretly relieved. He understands Huang X's character and temper, and since he has decided to devote himself to the southwest revolution, he will inevitably turn his emotions and wisdom into unparalleled action and stay on the road to his ideals. And Huang X's consciousness of not fighting for fame and profit has also laid a good foundation for the cooperation between the two in the future.

"Dominate a province. Train elite soldiers, Brother Keqiang and the strategy of this association coincide! Song Fuhua gently tilted the wine glass on the table and said: "I think back then, we were high-spirited, but we thought about the revolution simply. With first-hand experience, I realized that it is not so easy. Let's talk about the army, the party and the reckless organization are certainly unreliable, and the current revolutionary army is recruited. None of them were forced. And the training time is longer, and the method is taken gradually. Unless there are two or three years, tens of thousands of strong troops cannot be trained. ”

"Dull Chu, you have to be more detailed." Huang X was quite interested in military affairs and listened intently.

"First of all, basic military skills and physical training, then the baptism of small battles, and finally large-scale battles. In this way, step by step, it ensured that there were few deserters in the brutal battle, and the combat effectiveness of the troops was relatively guaranteed. According to the statistics of the General Staff, a veteran is equivalent to the combat effectiveness of four or five recruits, and if you pick up a gun, you are counted as a soldier. The revolutionary army could soon be expanded to twenty or thirty thousand, or even more. However, this kind of expansion with a false appearance will not only increase the pressure on logistics, but will also cause the command headquarters to make mistakes in judging the combat effectiveness of various units. "Song Fuhua does not understand military affairs, but he has a good memory, and he basically recounts the plans and reasons of the General Staff.

"Logistics, that is, money, food, weapons and ammunition." Huang X nodded a little abruptly, he was also the one who organized and participated in the uprising, and he had a deep understanding of this, "Your Guild launched in the southwest, and the huge amount of materials and money raised is really amazing. Looking at China and abroad, the strength of your association is the best, and it is well deserved to lead the revolutionary trend. As he spoke, he smiled bitterly a little awkwardly, "Compared with the wealth of your guild, other revolutionary groups can be regarded as poor!" Members go to China to launch, and the cost has to be figured out by themselves. ”

Revolutionary fundraising is a venture capital. The revival will do a good job, as if it is a "high-performance stock", and the gold absorption will naturally be smoother than that of other groups. Coupled with the support of Chen Wenqiang, a big financier, other groups must be out of reach.

"The revolution is not easy, and we would never have thought that the most difficult thing was in money." Song Fuhua bowed his head lightly and said with emotion: "The development of this association to today's situation is really with the help of noble people, and there is a person who has made great contributions!" Even so, in the future, the revolutionary army must adopt self-reliance and warfare as a long-term strategy. ”

Huang X also understands this, not to mention that the revolutionary army has tens of thousands, even thousands of people, how much does it cost in a day? If you rely on foreign aid, there will be no enough gold and silver!

"No matter what, the flame of revolution will not be extinguished, it will only burn more and more." Song Fuhua's expression became confident and firm again, and he raised his glass to Huang X again, "I was an old friend before, and I will be an old comrade-in-arms from now on, let us unite sincerely, fight side by side, and work hard for the great cause of the revolution!" ”

"Work hard and succeed early." Huang X raised his glass and touched it, and drank it all.

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

The rain is like a cow's hair, and it is inaudible. The gloomy sky and the heads of people hanging high at the gate of the county town made Shunde shrouded in an atmosphere of terror and slaughter.

"Check the inferior gentry Xian Rui's rank, wash Ruiduan, collude with the bandits, shelter the bandits, and sit on the ground to share the fertilizer. Since bandits are rampant and it is useless to clear the countryside, it is really an unforgivable crime, and it is especially ...... to correct the law and set an example."

On the wall next to the city gate, there was a notice from the government, and two officials rang the gong from time to time and read the notice aloud to the passing people.

In Shunde Qingxiang, it was sudden and violent, and there was no wind in advance. By the time the operation was in full swing, it was already difficult for the bandits to escape.

Chen Wenqiang transferred 200 Mauser pistols from Qiongzhou, and hurriedly transported 300 revolvers from Shanghai, mixed with the police and patrol battalions, armed with dozens of plainclothes teams, a group of five people, and a team of 10 people, disguised as various people, and secretly sneaked to the traffic arteries around Shunde. Dozens of inland river patrol boats are cruising on the river, and at the same time, intercepting and arresting suspicious people. When the operation began, the armed police and railway patrol officers arrived with long guns and machine guns to strengthen patrols and interceptions at major traffic crossings.

Led the Qingxiang Committee and armed police all the way, Chen Wenqiang arrived in Shunde, and then took down the inferior gentry Xian Rui and Xi Ruiduan, who were collaborators, and immediately corrected the law on the spot after confessing under severe torture. The families of the two inferior gentry were kicked out of the house, taken into custody, and all their property was confiscated; According to the confession, the police mainly cooperated with the militia group and began to arrest the bandits according to the map.

"The speed of handing over privately stored firearms and ammunition shall be limited to three days, and those who fail to pay it within the time limit shall be punished as bandits......"

"Those who harbor and harbor bandits should quickly surrender to the government, and if they fail to do so, they will be punished as bandits......"

"Whoever binds and kills a robber shall be forgiven of his former sin if he was a bandit; If they are good citizens, they will be rewarded according to the crimes of bandits, and the minimum reward is 1,000 yuan, and they can choose another place to live in Qiongzhou and Huxiang, and the government will resettle them......"

"If a robber surrenders within the time limit, his sin is forgivable; If they fail to return to the case within the time limit, their family property will be confiscated, and all their relatives will be resettled in Qiongzhou......"

Notices were widely distributed in Shunde County, and the inventory and control of various traffic arteries became stricter with the continuous reinforcement of patrol battalions, armed police, and railway patrol police.

In the Qing Township, there was a long stipulation that the circumstances of the seven types of criminals, namely, bandits, bandits, wanderers, salt lords, bandits, and foreign thieves, were very different from ordinary thieves, and they could be punished on the spot. However, it was the first time that the house of the gangster and the inferior gentry were raided and killed, and the shock can be imagined.

"Whoever is a gentleman, if he is a director, will not be a bandit. Even if he refuses to attack bandits, he does not advocate murder. And shielding the bandits and sitting on the ground to share the fertilizer is really hateful, and the crime cannot be punished. So the thieves can hide in the countryside, and the ruffians are sheltered by the local ruffians, and the inferior gentry are sheltered by the ten dwellers. If the root cause is not eradicated, then the thief will be killed every day and the thief will be free, and the trouble of the thief will be eliminated. ”

Chen Wenqiang made a generous statement, and the magistrate of Shunde County and the squires listened awe-inspiringly, and many people trembled.
