From the Wanning Uprising to the present, the righteous army can be said to be invincible, of course, this is also the reason why the Qing army is too bad. But Chen Wenqiang had already seen too many shortcomings, and expected that such an uprising would not last. In other words, such an uprising could not shake the rule of the Manchus.

In the face of the slaughter of the Qing army, the uprising could end with the situation and come to an end. However, how to have a good result, even if the external announcement of defeat does not make the revival society disgraced and ridiculed, and how to expand its influence in Qiongzhou, so that it can more easily win the victory of Quanqiong in the future, has become a problem that Chen Wenqiang has to solve.

Wu Luzhen and Xu Qingshan took the initiative to abandon the occupied land, and led the revolutionary army to Qiongzhong to rendezvous, and the Qiongzhou merchant group and Yazhou militia group, which took advantage of the chaos to expand on a large scale, took advantage of the situation to "recover" Baoting and Lingshui. Taking advantage of the power vacuum, he seized the time to organize militia groups in these two places, assumed the responsibility of "protecting the territory and securing the people," and sent a group of armed forces to continue to march towards Wanning, preparing to "recover" this county as well.

After all, the "recovery" and control of these counties are temporary, and whether they can last for a long time depends on the decisive battle in the Qiongzhong area. Only when the Qing army in Qiongya was heavily attacked and could not undertake the task of maintaining law and order because of insufficient troops, the role of the merchant group and the militia group would be highlighted, and the government would have to rely on this white-skinned and red-hearted army.

And the Qing army in Guangdong, according to Chen Wenqiang's judgment, as long as the situation in Qiongzhou is under control, even if it increases its troops to help the war, it will not be stationed for a long time.

…………

When Wu Luzhen and Xu Chunshan led the troops to Qiongzhong, Chen Wenqiang could finally hand over this unqualified "Wu Shuai" and assign the task of reorganization to Wu Luzhen.

Zheng Hongming is dead, and the Huang brothers are easy to control. Li Jiajun has already mastered most of the men and horses, and has the deterrence of a truly well-equipped revolutionary army, and it will not be very difficult to reorganize and purge.

"These people should pay more attention, they can't let them know too many military secrets, and they can-" Chen Wenqiang handed Wu Luzhen a list of more than a dozen people, with a solemn expression on his face. He made a downward cutting gesture.

Wu Luzhen nodded, looked at it casually, and then forwarded the list to Xu Chunshan, Li Jiajun and others. Because these people are very unfamiliar to him, Xu Chunshan and Li Jiajun are more familiar.

"How do you fight the Qing army that comes to attack? The last time you wrote to you, it was too complicated for me to grasp. Wu Luzhen bluntly revealed that she wanted to fight a big war, "Fighting a war is not better than a plan, and you can stop it if you want to stop it." The so-called fierce lion fights rabbit, and will do his best. Moreover, it depends on the quality of the current troops. It is also difficult to complete an overly elaborate arrangement. ”

"Well, I've thought about this question repeatedly, and I've taken it for granted." Chen Wenqiang smiled to himself and said, "Then follow your command, and deal with it according to what it is!" Therefore, I have to rush back to Yazhou as soon as possible and try to be as thoughtful as possible. ”

"If the Qing army is wiped out, will you have a way to turn around?" Wu Luzhen asked uneasily.

Chen Wenqiang thought for a moment. smiled helplessly and said, "There should be a way." As for whether it will succeed or not, it is difficult to say. Well, militarily you have the final say, you don't have to think about the rest. But I want to warn you, it's best not to reveal your identity just yet, and this black face and beard are quite formidable. Try to let Xu Chunshan and Li Jiajun be in front of them in everything. You hide behind and come up with ideas, so that I can be more flexible when I turn around. ”

Wu Luzhen grinned, he had never understood that Chen Wenqiang was so painstakingly hidden, but since he had already let him go militarily, he had no worries. It's hard to ask for anything else.

"Hurry up and settle all the families of the army, this is not like an army." Chen Wenqiang waved his hand, "If you don't want to be a soldier to fight, let them go, let's not force it." There are too many half-heartedness, which is not a good thing for the army. We also need to install our men as soon as possible and firmly control the troops. The law enforcement team can be trusted, but it also needs to be fully staffed. Also—"

Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, "The lack of government personnel is something we didn't expect. To lay a ground, the management of this daily affairs must also be done well in order to be stable. If it is all dependent on those old Manchu bureaucrats, who change the soup but not the medicine, what kind of revolution is it called? ”

"What about the laws and regulations on which government affairs are managed?" Zhang Jiyi spread his hands, "We haven't worked it out." ”

"The laws and regulations should be ready-made and reasonable, that is, those of the Qing court." Chen Wenqiang said without hesitation: "The problem of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is not the law, but the implementation, the system, and the bureaucrats who carry it out. After removing the excesses and miscellaneous taxes, many of the new laws and policies introduced by the Qing court are actually good, and there is no need to deny them all. Revolution is not a complete overthrow, so we need to figure out what is overthrown. ”

"Is that okay?" Zhang Ji was very skeptical, "Didn't you just say that you didn't change the soup without changing the medicine, isn't it?" ”

"Of course not." Chen Wenqiang shook his head again and again, and said, "Soup and medicine, you can understand it if you figure it out." To put it simply, let's talk about murderers, the law of the Qing court is also to behead and put to death, so you have to be different and change to individual punishments. Okay, be flexible, be civilized, and change to hanging. But you see that those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, accept bribes, bend the law for personal gain, and the murderers are not guilty, is this the fault of the law? Speaking of the discipline of the army, no army openly says that it is right to plunder the people, but it is not yet the norm. ”

"Kind of understood." Zhang Ji seemed to understand whether he understood or not, scratching his head, "It's better to think carefully, and you have to think about it seriously." ”

"Only when there is practice can we not sit and talk about it." Chen Wenqiang sat down, took a sip of water, and said with emotion: "Although the time is very short, I feel very deeply. Let's just say that it is benevolent and beneficial, and some money and grain will be returned to the people, but how can it be distributed? Sending people to deliver from door to door is not only time-consuming and laborious, but if someone turns around halfway and gives away the money and food......"

Because of the human instinct to pursue the maximization of self-interest, we certainly believe that everyone is pure, bright, and sunny. But in any case, don't give him the opportunity to indulge human nature, don't tempt human nature, don't give good people the opportunity to be bad people. That's how to do it. How can this be avoided?

Institutionalization, of course. First of all, the local officials will count the household registration to see how many people are in the jurisdiction, and each household will be issued rice tickets according to the capitation. The common people took the rice ticket and went to the treasury to receive the rice. In this way, the magistrate could not see the rice, and if he wanted to be corrupt, he had to forge the rice ticket. But each rice ticket must send a specific person to receive rice, and the cost of embezzlement is very high. And the keeper of the warehouse saw that the rice was distributed, and if the rice grain issued did not match the rice ticket, then he would not be able to say clearly.

But this system doesn't seem to be very effective, the rice tickets are distributed, the people exchange the rice tickets for rice, and the rice tickets are finally counted, and the rice tickets recovered are estimated to be much more than the ones issued.

It's such a strict system. There are still embezzlers who can seize the opportunity with a clear mind, forge rice stamps, and steal grain and rice.

What can be done to eradicate corruption once and for all? There is a way, but the problem is that the institutionalized design needs to monitor the increase in costs, and the worst thing is that it is too late, and when you take all the precautions, how long will it take?

“…… Everybody lined up to lead. There are always people who come to line up after receiving it and sending it home; One person from each household shall receive money and food according to his fingerprint. But in the end, there are always people who are fraudulently claimed, but their own families have not yet received them; The same goes for receiving tickets; As for the invoice, some people said that they had not sent it, but the invoicer swore that it was in his hands......" Chen Wenqiang spread his hands, and said helplessly and distressedly: "Look, in addition to killing people to maintain order." To maintain military discipline, I ponder these trivial things all day long. This is not yet a court trial, if I encounter his family losing a chicken, and your family throwing a bundle of firewood, I will not survive. ”

"It's a lot more tiring than fighting." Wu Luzhen was deeply sympathetic. Shook his head again and again.

"It's so troublesome for a small county, if you change to a big city or a province, then what's the deal?" Zhang Ji was also a little dumbfounded.

"We have to admire Lao Wan and make Yazhou impressive." Chen Zixin sighed, "If you don't experience it, you don't know the hardships." Among the three people Zeng and Hu Zuo, Hu Linyi died young, but he laid the foundation of Hubei's prosperity and strength with his financial management, and his reputation was not under Zeng Guofan, which shows the importance of internal affairs or finance. ”

"We don't have that kind of talent at the moment." Chen Wenqiang nodded in agreement, "If we win militarily, we can recover a province, but how to make the manpower and material resources of this province available to us as soon as possible, add energy to the revolution, and continue to win victory depends on the governance of internal affairs." ”

"I think—" Zhang Ji muttered, "there should be such a call within the association, so that those members who may not be suitable for military affairs should study other specialties hard, such as government affairs, economics, and so on." ”

"I will write a report for this council to consider and consider." Chen Wenqiang agreed with this very much, and said with a smile: "According to the plan, the great revolutionary will soon appear on stage, and we really need a star-level figure who can compete with Beichen, and we need a leader." The so-called command of the rivers and lakes, do not dare to disobey. ”

To talk about Beichen's rise to fame in the field of the Japanese revolution, there is its inevitability and its chance. At that time, there were thousands of radical international students in Tokyo, and Miyazaki wrote "Mr. Sun Yat-sen, the Great Revolutionary", which was widely distributed among international students. The impact of this article on international students is incomparable, and they have just realized that they want a revolution, and the great revolutionaries here have already appeared. As a result, Beichen became famous among international students, and all of them looked forward to the appearance of Beichen after a long drought.

And after developing for so long, the Revival Society also realized the need to launch its own banner hero. In other words, the Revival Society needs a leader, just like Kang Liang of the Royalist Society and Beichen of the Confederacy. In the Revival Society, Song Jiaoren is undoubtedly the most suitable.

Talented, theoretically strong, ambitious, extraordinary, energetic, and eloquent. With these advantages, Song Jiaoren can not only make the audience applaud like a tide and cheer thunderously; It can also make political enemies really think that he is a Monkey King who plucked his hair and became a soldier. It can be described as both shocking and deterrent.

The introduction of a leader, of course, does not mean arbitrariness, it means absolute leadership, which means dictatorship. Chen Wenqiang, the cadres of the Fuxing Association, and Song Jiaoren have reached a consensus on this point, and it is also a major event that has been planned for a long time.

Whether you are a great man or not, and whether you claim to be the embodiment of the revolution, first find out what the revolution is for? In order to overthrow the highly centralized system, how can the leaders who launched it engage in an absolute centralization?

What is absolute obedience is organizational discipline, organizational decisions, collective opinions, not individuals, even if you are the leader.

With this understanding, there will be no worries and no problems in launching leaders.

……………

Secretly walking, secretly returning, Chen Wenqiang drove lightly and quietly returned to Yazhou.

The Wanning Uprising was not destined to be the decisive battle for the overthrow of the Manchus, and how to get the most out of it was a priority.

Because of the turmoil, in the name of protecting the foundation, the Qiongzhou business group has expanded significantly, and the number of them in Yazhou alone exceeds 500. To this end, not only a dozen German instructors were hired, but a large number of weapons and ammunition were purchased and transported, so that the merchant group was fully equipped.

"I'm glad that we have succeeded in working together again." As soon as Chen Wenqiang arrived in Yazhou, he met with Karls, a German arms dealer, and in the name of the merchant group, there was no longer any need to hide his head and tail, and it was more convenient to use German freighters to transport supplies.

Maxim machine guns, Madsen light machine guns, Mauser rifles, hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition, this was Kars's biggest deal, and he could now be called a rich man.

"Artillery? No problem. Kars only hesitated for a moment, then nodded happily in agreement, and thought that he had cleverly found the right and suitable reason for Chen Wenqiang, "The riot is spreading very strongly, and it is very necessary to strengthen the force if you want to prevent the foundation you have worked so hard to build. Are you sure this riot won't affect you, though? ”

"Then you have to ask the instructor I hired in your country." Chen Wenqiang showed a lack of confidence, "I am afraid that this will affect the determination of the site of Teckhua University, if the riot is not quickly quelled, or if it is effectively controlled." ”

"Qingdao should be a good choice, if you don't insist on it, it may have been decided a long time ago." Kars thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Maybe you can ask the governor to send some German soldiers from Qingdao to ensure safety." ”

Chen Wenqiang shook his head resolutely and said: "I can borrow the armed forces from the Shanghai merchant group, or I can expand the local merchant group and invite foreign soldiers, which is absolutely impossible." This involves ......"

"I understand, I understand." Kars nodded again and again, and asked tentatively, "Can the date for going to Qingdao to negotiate with the governor be determined?" In my opinion, it's still a bit dangerous for you to stay here, so it's—"
