Chapter 168: An intolerable toss

A guy who seems to be tough, but he is calm, rational, and accurately judges the international situation and the situation of various countries. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In Chen Wenqiang's case, false intimidation is useless, cunning and extravagant hopes are not good, he seems to have some kind of magic, can see through the real psychology of his opponent, and the weakness under the tough surface.

When you should provoke, when you should hide; Forbearance when it should be forbearance, and unceremonious when it is time to fight back. Macau Portugal is a case in point, and he was beaten with a long-planned stick, but he had to knock out his teeth and swallow blood.

Chen Wenqiang just said it casually, but Jem knew his influence, and he was afraid that the fundraising and construction of the University of Hong Kong would be delayed. But this matter is nothing, just an invitation to buy fame by the governor of Xingang. The most important thing in the negotiations is to finalize the Guangzhou-Kowloon railway, a project that is of great importance to Hong Kong, and must no longer fall into the hands of Germany and the United States, or even be fully funded by the Chinese.

However, Chen Wenqiang did not immediately agree to how the Guangzhou-Kowloon Railway would be built, although the British had already promised a loan, and the conditions were the same as those of Germany and the United States, and they also promised to divide the second section of the Luohu Bridge into two sections, the Chinese and the British, and the management rights would be jointly held by the two families.

Jem couldn't figure out what Chen Wenqiang wanted and why he didn't sign the agreement so that he could do his job.

Chen Wenqiang was unhurried, took out some information, handed it to Jem, and said lightly: "Guangdong's social security is the work of this official, I hope you can support it." ”

Jem was a little confused, he didn't know what the social order in Guangdong had to do with the Hong Kong authorities, but after taking the information and reading it carefully, he understood.

In August 1906, the Hong Kong "China Daily" affiliated to the League was reorganized, and Feng Li borrowed 5,000 yuan to purchase the distribution rights of the Hong Kong China Daily, which finally temporarily freed the Hong Kong China Daily from danger. Feng was soon elected president of the Hong Kong branch of the Alliance after Chen Shaobai took charge of the Hong Kong China Daily. And this was also the most active years when Feng was free to develop the "revolutionary cause".

If history has not changed, and there is no revival society that was born out of nowhere, Chen Wenqiang does not want to continue to suppress the alliance. However, the situation is different, Guangdong will become his bag, and naturally others will not be allowed to get involved or sabotage.

It would have been possible to ignore it with one eye open and one eye closed. Available in the "Nichenmaru" event. Feng Liberty and others actually planned to join forces with pirates to rob the guns on the ship of "Erchen Maru", and took advantage of the situation to cause trouble in Xiangshan and Qianshan, which Chen Wenqiang could not tolerate no matter what.

Crazy? Want to make a rabble and toss around? Chen Wenqiang didn't understand whether these people were making a revolution, or were they just tossing around, or just proving their existence, showing that the Chinese Revolutionary Party was not idle and depressed?

As for asking the British authorities in Hong Kong to cooperate and assist, Chen Wenqiang also wanted to exterminate them all, but suggested that the "China Daily" be closed. Let Feng Freedom and the others leave the country automatically. As long as he was far away from Guangdong, Chen Wenqiang felt that he had achieved his goal.

"Just this year, there was an explosion on the fourth floor of the China Daily newspaper office, as if a bomb was being made in an attempt to assassinate or cause unrest." Chen Wenqiang emphasized: "Guangdong's stability and social order are facing a serious threat. So, I hope you will pay attention to it. Deport the cadres and others. Without a stable and safe environment, I don't think the cooperation with you will go smoothly, right? ”

Although because of the big movement made by Feng Freedom and others. It has caused unease on the part of the Hong Kong government, "the police have repeatedly questioned and investigated, and persuaded him to leave the country voluntarily", but Jem is not very clear about this, and he does not dare to easily agree to Chen Wenqiang's conditions. After all, what is at stake is the dignity of the British authorities in Hong Kong and the independence of Fazim.

"Lord Chen's suggestion. I get it. Jem said tactfully: "But whether the evidence is conclusive, whether it is necessary to expel these people, I also have to consult the governor of Hong Kong, I believe that there will be a satisfactory result for Lord Chan." ”

"I hope so." Chen Wenqiang smiled slightly and said, "This official has been clearing the township and suppressing bandits. There are many bandits who have fled Hong Kong, and this is also a threat to Hong Kong's law and order, and I hope that we can reach a cooperation mechanism to jointly combat crime. ”

"This can be negotiated and resolved." Jem pondered for a moment and said, "Fighting crime and maintaining law and order in Hong Kong are also the goals we seek. ”

……………

After the turn against Macau and Portugal, Chen Wenqiang no longer had any scruples, and frequently dispatched sailors and ships with armed police to carry out merciless crackdowns on pirates, even in waters disputed with Macao and Portugal.

The pirates died or fled under this blow, and the merchants and people of Guangdong applauded, but the Chinese Revolutionary Party gritted their teeth and hated it, because in their eyes, the "anti-Qing righteous people" were being killed, and their "revolutionary forces" were being destroyed and lost.

Not only pirates, but also bandits, gangsters, and stragglers on land, also suffered heavy losses in the continuous and deepening of the Qingxiang, and they either surrendered, fled, or were arrested. Guangdong, a place of uprising on which the League had high hopes, is increasingly losing hope of success.

In the general interest of safeguarding national sovereignty, when Chen Wenqiang clashed with Macao and Portugal by force, the first statement of the Renaissance Association, or the United Front, undoubtedly occupied the moral high ground. The Chinese Revolutionary Party could not take advantage of this opportunity to start an incident in Guangdong, and it was unwilling to parrot the same remarks after the revival meeting, so it had no choice but to remain silent.

As everyone knows, the more silent and passive it is, the more people are confused, especially the overseas Chinese and Chinese in Nanyang. In the previous movement to Japan, Beichen and others had a very warm attitude, refusing to show the banner to directly denounce the unreasonableness of the Japanese people, the shame of the country's shame, and the lack of enthusiasm to participate in it, which was already quite disappointing.

And the Revival Society, which has a firm stance and reasonable rhetoric in major matters, has once again won the hearts of countless people. This, of course, had to do with the stability of the war in the southwest, and the fact that the Revival Society had taken possession of a corner and issued a strong challenge to the Qing court.

Empty shouting of revolution and nothing can be achieved, but painting cake in the air will never be obtained. No matter how good the prospect is that you describe to people, it always makes people feel like they have the hope of success, right? As a revolutionary party, the Renaissance Society held high the banner and marched forward bravely, which naturally greatly influenced the expansion and development of the Chinese Revolutionary Party.

At this time, I am afraid that Beichen and the others realized their mistake and hurriedly ordered Wang Jingwei and others to re-erect the signboard of the League in Tokyo. But it was too late, most of the members of the Tokyo League had already turned to the Revolutionary United Front, and under the propaganda of public opinion, the new students in Japan were more willing to run to the side with a bright future, and the old signboard, the League, was no longer very attractive.
