In that great controversy, the League side was so large that it could be said that they attacked it in groups. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Wang Jingwei and Hu Hanmin are the main generals of the debate, and Zhu Zhixin, Wang Dong, and Liu Guanghan (that is, Liu Shipei) are heavyweight authors. Beichen was also involved in the debate behind the scenes, and some of the articles were written directly according to his dictated outline.

In other words, the League's attack on Liang Qichao was an organized and planned collective action, and its motive was certainly not a sincere theoretical discussion, but an obvious political purpose: to make every effort to thwart the "preparatory constitution" and "congressional petition" movements that were in the ascendant and surging in China at that time. In short, the purpose of attacking Liang Qichao was to dwarf the constitutionalists and elevate the League, and the criticism of constitutionalism was to sing the praises of the new policy at the end of the Qing Dynasty and build momentum for the "full revolution".

Objectively speaking, Liang Qichao is a ten, and he is only a shadow; The alliance will be loud and strong, and it will be slightly better. However, the League regarded the suspension of the publication of the "Xinmin Cong Bao" and the change of the name of the Royalist Society as all the credit for the controversy, and this was naturally not the whole fact, and the main reason for the suspension of the "Xinmin Cong Bao" was that Liang Qichao's affairs were complicated and his energy was lacking, which caused the newspaper to repeatedly regret the period, and "the credibility of regular publication has been lost."

After the Qing government announced that it was "preparing for the constitution", Kang and Liang were "ecstatic" and believed that the purpose of the Royalist Society had been achieved, so they renamed it the Imperial Constitutional Council. However, it is an indisputable fact that the controversy did to a great extent increase the morale of the revolutionary party and the "Minbao," extinguish the prestige of the constitutionalists and the "Xinmin Congbao," and expand the influence of the League and its "isms" in the study abroad and intellectual circles.

However, it is worth pointing out that although Liang Qichao resolutely opposed the "racial revolution" and "social revolution" of the revolutionary party, he did not completely deny the legitimacy of the revolution. His meaning is similar to Chen Wenqiang, that is, you do yours, I do mine, don't get in the way of each other. One party petitioned the government for a constitution, and the other party prepared its military strength for future revolution. If it is really a peaceful constitution, it is not too late for a violent revolution.

Just as the great debate is sprinkled with millions of words, there is only one core topic, and that is to save China. Although there are two factions and two paths, they all believe that the status quo of the country is unsustainable and must be changed, and they all believe that China should have and can have a relatively good form of government and government. In direction and prospects. In fact, the two sides are the same.

However, people at the center of the debate often prefer to flaunt the absolute differences between their own party and other parties, and deliberately magnify the differences, highlight the antagonisms, and regard them as "fundamental differences", while ignoring the similarities or treating them as minutiae.

In fact, to defeat the opponent and gain an advantage in the debate, according to Chen Wenqiang's judgment. It is nothing more than a means to expand influence and then compete for resources. It is also an "overseas listed company", but the royalists and the League can be described as two heavens of ice and fire. For example, Beichen worked hard for many years in Honolulu, the base of the first revolution, during which many people with lofty ideals destroyed their homes to relieve difficulties, sold houses and land to support the revolution, and could barely get 30,000 yuan; But between Kang and Liang's gestures. I took more than 200,000 yuan.

Reform and revolution were the two major choices for China's future at that time. All of them are "venture capital" in nature. However, the management level of the "royalist company" is obviously higher than that of the latter, and it is also investing in real estate restaurants, running bookstores and newspapers, and has made a lot of money, and even Kang Youwei can "marry a Japanese wife and speculate on Mexican land." Do Canadian stocks", extravagant" to the European and American emperors, "public money private business".

Although the "revolutionary company" successfully achieved "mergers and acquisitions", it was financially struggling, compared with Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, two money-making geniuses. Clearly not in one heavyweight class. Therefore, it is necessary to suppress the royalist society first in terms of theory and momentum, in order to raise funds and develop in the future.

Where is the money, the revolutionaries also have to eat, and they have to buy weapons to revolt and riot, which is full of copper stench but difficult to escape. Unlike the Renaissance Society, with the support of Chen Wenqiang's industry and commerce, the League can only take the road of overseas fundraising, and competition with the Royalist Society is inevitable.

In the case of the League, it is difficult to maintain even the organ publication, Minbao, let alone to subsidize and take care of ordinary members.

To eat and to stay, the passion of the revolution cannot solve this most practical problem. And these are exactly in front of a few international students who have returned to China.

Because of the incident of the "Regulations for the Prohibition of International Students", the international students made a fuss for a while, and no one paid attention to it anymore. This scene disappointed Qiu Jin, who believed that the Chinese were always anticlimactic, and since then they have rebelled against the alliance and do not work with international students.

The heroine Qiu Jin, returned to China with her classmate Yao Hongye and others, they took the road to Shanghai, and planned to set up a school in Shanghai, but the funds were insufficient. As time passed, even life became a problem, and I had to seek a livelihood first, and then seek the great cause of revolution.

“…… When I was eight years old, my parents sold me to a landowner. I have worked hard for ten years, and I have not received a penny, and the food I take can only ......be fed," Yao Hongye stopped boredly, reading the beggar's complaint.

One complaint after another, one tragic story after another, the advertising words make people feel that he is indeed unlucky, and those tragic things many people may not encounter in their lifetime. He took a few more steps and looked at another tragic story.

"When I first arrived in Shanghai, God was gracious, and a good man married me. Soon after, however, my husband was killed by bandits, and I was penniless, and the silk and cotton mills turned me away because of my thinness. I had to live in the streets, starving......" a haggard woman sat on the edge of the ground, her head bowed listlessly.

A foreign devil threw down a few copper plates, which made Yao Hongye a little embarrassed, and quickly avoided the woman's gaze.

The foreign devil walked forward and looked at another place, this man narrated it in a different way than the others, and at the end of the figure was written a cynical and optimistic aphorism: "Poverty in times of great distress is something that the rich cannot buy." ”

Yao Hongye heard the female foreign devil laugh and threw down a few copper plates. The short man's face was wrinkled, but he was very agile, and with his eagle's claw-like hand, he grabbed the brass plates and stuffed them into his arms. Unlike other people who squatted on the side of the road, instead of leaving the money where it was to provoke more sympathy and charity from passers-by, he made sure that the money would not be stolen, and he was really an authentic pragmatist.

Pragmatic! Yao Hongye couldn't help but sigh and turned around to leave here. Before returning home, I thought it was simple, but now even the belly has become a problem, and I am about to go our separate ways. What about the ambition, the fiery revolutionary fervor?

"Extra. Extra! The voice of the newsboy screamed, "Qiongzhou riots, the Fuxing Society has rebelled, with tens of thousands of troops, and has captured Wanning County......"

Yao Hongye raised his head suddenly, stunned by the sudden news. Although the Revival Society was founded early. But the entry is very strict, and the purpose seems to be gentle, and it is not very popular with most enthusiastic young people. Now, the Alliance is in the limelight, and it is attacking Liang Qichao, the standard-bearer of the Royalist Society. And the revival meeting seems to be neutral and objective, but it suddenly makes such a big move in a low-key way......

"Newsboy, newsboy......" Yao Hongye woke up, quickly caught up, and took out a copper plate in his pocket. Get a newspaper. ”

"Two copper plates, one newspaper." The newsboy shook the newspaper in his hand, showing the thickness.

"Give." Yao Hongye took out the only copper plate and stuffed it into the newsboy's hand, grabbed the newspaper, and looked at it with wide eyes.

There are photos and descriptions, but the above is clear, it is reprinted in "China in the Twentieth Century" in Tokyo, Japan, that is, the organ newspaper of the Revival Association.

Flags flutter at the head of Wanning City. The smoke has not yet dissipated; The strong man who rushed out of the smoke of gunpowder held the banner in his hand, twisted his eyebrows and stared...... This propaganda means. It can be said that there are pictures and truths, which are more convincing than hearsay or text descriptions.

In the wonderful description, what is shown in front of people is a vivid and vivid battle experience: in the blood-colored firelight, the enemy and the enemy are fighting to the death in this ancient county town. On both sides of the offensive and defensive sides, one is determined to win. One is to fight for every inch of land; One is fierce and prepared, and the other is desperately resisting and stubbornly refusing......

Everywhere was the screams of bullets and bullets like a storm, the shouts of the heroic soldiers of the rebels, and the wails of the dying struggles of the Qing army...... Only the battlefield can make such a sound, and only the sound of the battlefield can be so moving......

It's like a huge band. Combatants manipulate different instruments, pluck different notes, and converge from different directions on this open-air stage to play a spectacular battlefield symphony...... Accompanied by heartbreaking and chilling music, thousands of gorgeous streamers shuttle back and forth, reflecting each other, setting off the gray sky......

A huge wave of air rose into the sky, causing darkness in the heavens and the earth...... The mist of blood, sweat and dust...... The splendid, black-red, violently open, instantly extinguished flame, in the flames fell the human body, and in the flames stood the dignity and banner of resistance to tyranny.

Not only was the battle as dramatic as a novel, but the propaganda department of the Revival Society reaffirmed its own purpose and principles at the same time. What is "the republic of the five ethnic groups", "the establishment of the Republic of China", "cultivating its land", "supporting industry and commerce"...... These have been publicized before, but in connection with this uprising, the impact is very different.

Yao Hongye was originally a radical young man, and he was most enthusiastic about "full rows" and "full killing", but at this time, he had a different state of mind. Look, people talk mildly, but they do earth-shattering big things and practical things; What about themselves, together with those radical revolutionaries, shouting in a high-pitched and imposing voice, but they are waste who can only move their mouths and cannot do anything?

In connection with the actual situation, Yao Hongye felt even more deeply. My own gang is still running around for food, not to mention any "revolutionary action". Rather than just mixing up like this, it's better to ...... Yes, even if you die, you should not die quietly, this is the purpose of the revolution, this is the purpose of the real revolutionary party to fight and sacrifice for it.

…………

The letter of appointment from Xunxi Girls' School was on the table, and Qiu Jin frowned, not knowing how to explain this matter to her companions. Yes, they should have responded to their call and returned to their country, but now they want to leave them and fend for themselves, it is really difficult to say this.

Maybe it's not just yourself who has such thoughts, but they're all waiting for the time when they really can't stand it, right? I also posted a message to my gang, but I didn't reply. Qiu Jin stroked her forehead in annoyance, the cruelty of reality is so real.

"It hurts me, it hurts me." There was a sound outside, and the faster it was spoken, but it became quieter and quieter.

"You can't live here anymore, she vomits blood everywhere, the grass is all bad, she is going to cough to death, everyone can't sleep, you quickly drag her out!" A vicious voice rang out, Qiu Jin frowned, and walked out.

"Where can I get her?" A scrawny man pleaded with the shopkeeper in the yard, the corner was just a straw hut, but he and his daughter rented it, "She is very sick, if you disturb it, it will be really sorry......"

"What's the use of being sorry?" The shopkeeper was wearing a blue robe, a melon skin hat, and a few light pockmarks on his face, which was an annoying face, "If your girl dies here, it will not only be unlucky, but it will also affect the business of the shop." When people see such things, will they still live here? ”

It's not fair, it's not right! Qiu Jin's mind was tumbling with these thoughts. And can revolution completely eradicate the evil of the world? The poor girl, even in the little shed, had the right to die like a human being. Isn't that so?

"You'll have to pay for my grass." The pockmarks on the shopkeeper's face jumped, "This grass could have been used for a week, but now I have to replace it, it's all your fault, you owe me grass money." ”

The thin man squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, and he was completely helpless. The little boss's mouth kept moving, shouting, and spat splashed wildly. Qiu Jin stared at this guy's thin neck, and couldn't help clenching her fists, she was a little excited, as if she was pinching this thin neck, and using all the strength of her body, she could vent all the grievances she saw and received......

"I'll pay you to live in this damn shitty shack." A gruff voice rang out, and a large man with pigtails stepped into the courtyard and walked straight up to the shopkeeper, staring into his eyes.

"It's not about money." The shopkeeper's mouth was angular and showed that he would not budge, "She can't die here." ”

The big man grinned, sneered, and said, "Then I have to go to the eldest brother of Xingyitang to reason." That's my sister-in-law, and I'm from the Shanghai Chinese Association. ”

The shopkeeper's eyelids twitched twice, and the expression on his face was both scared and suspicious, but in the end, he gritted his teeth, silently bowed his head, turned and walked away.

"It's not a problem for you two to just stand up like this?" The big man approached the thin man, lowered his voice and said, "Go to the Chinese Association in Shanghai, I see that your daughter is working in a silk reeling factory, and she is sick from exhaustion, so the factory has to take some money to be responsible, right?" Besides, this tuberculosis can be cured, but ......"
