Chapter 122: Differentiation and Disintegration
"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, good news, great news!"
Peng Sumin, a member of the alliance and Sun Yat-sen's secretary, hurriedly broke in with a telegram in his hand, walked in a hurry, tripped over the threshold, and almost fell.
Sun Yat-sen, who was looking at the fundraising list, raised his head, he had never seen Peng Sumin like this: "Sumin, what's wrong, so excited?" ”
"Great news!" Peng Sumin couldn't hold back his excitement: "On July 12, Rong County announced that it would read!" ”
"What?" With a sound of "dang", the pen in Sun Yat-sen's hand fell on the table, rushed up, snatched the telegram in Peng Sumin's hand, read it over and over again in disbelief, and then re-read the telegram word by word, and then waved his fist vigorously:
"Good, good! Rong County's reading power, the merit is in the revolution! The first righteousness of the revolution is in China! ”
said curiously: "I know Long Mingjian and Wang Tianjie, this Wang Hengyue, it sounds familiar." ”
"How did the Prime Minister forget." Peng Sumin hurriedly said: "We sent Xiong Kewu back to China to organize an uprising, and when we encountered danger, it was this Wang Hengyue who rescued us. In a letter to us, Xiong Kewu said that this person 'has great righteousness and knows the revolution; Able to fight, can use soldiers; True gentleman, big husband', a total of eighteen words of comment. ”
Sun Yat-sen patted his head: "Yes, yes, this is the person." Unthinkable, unthinkable. We have failed in all our uprisings, but we didn't expect that this person would be the first to declare his independence from the Manchus! Power generation, power generation, revolutionary hero, Wang Hengyue is my first revolutionary hero! ”
Since the failure of the Guangzhou Uprising, Peng Sumin has never been so happy to see the prime minister.
After Sun Yat-sen's excitement passed a little, Peng Sumin said: "But now the situation in Rong County is not optimistic, Wang Hengyue is well-armed, and is regarded as a strong opponent by Zhao Erfeng. ”
"The Qing court wants to stifle my Rongxian revolution, but I just won't agree!" Sun Yat-sen suppressed his smile: "Rongxian reading power is of great significance to our revolution, so that the members of the alliance from all over Sichuan will reinforce Rongxian at all costs, and at the same time, with the help of the momentum of Rongxian reading power, in the whole Sichuan, the whole of China to set off a great wave of revolution!" ”
"Reinforcements have been delivered."
Sun Yat-sen nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Long Mingjian and Wang Tianjie are too young, I'm afraid they are frivolous. This, Wu Yuchang is in Chengdu, right? He is a member of the old League, and he was sent to Rong County, first, to unify leadership, and second, to strengthen Wang Hengyue's revolutionary beliefs. ”
Peng Sumin hesitated: "Prime Minister, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" Wu Yuchang is capable and loyal to the revolution, but he has an upright temper and is easy to offend people. And I heard that Wang Hengyue has been operating in Rong County for a long time, and now he suddenly sends a member of the alliance, nominally as a unified leader, but in fact he is leading him, I am worried that Wang Hengyue will not do it. Besides, Wang Hengyue is not a member of our alliance, so he may not listen to us. Besides, Long Mingjian and Wang Tianjie did a good job there."
"Don't worry." Sun Yat-sen waved his hand: "Since Wang Hengyue has announced the reading force, then he is our comrade." If he can accept Long Mingjian and Wang Tianjie, can't he accept Wu Yuchang? Su Min, Rong County's reading power is of great significance, and we must firmly grasp the leading power of the revolution! ”
Rong County, July 15, 1911.
This is the third day that Rong County has announced the reading power.
During the three days, the Qing army's numerous attacks were repelled under the bloody battles of the people's army. On the flanks, the Chinese army was still "trapped" in the "melee" with Zhang Xu's second battalion in Leshan.
The battle between the Chinese army and the second battalion was even more lively than the frontal battlefield. One will be Zhang Xu's large-scale attack, and the other will be the Chinese army's large-scale counteroffensive. It's dazzling.
The two sides acted enough, Zhang Xu was not only not reprimanded by Zhu Qinglan, but was also rewarded, and Zhu Qinglan even transferred a batch of weapons and ammunition to him.
On the frontal battlefield, although the civilian army suffered heavy losses, the patrol battalion was not as strong as before after countless failed attacks.
In particular, Zhu Qinglan never sent the elite new army to the battlefield, which made the generals of the patrol battalion dissatisfied.
Under such circumstances, Wang Hengyue, who knew the truth of "a stick in one hand and a carrot in the other", also secretly started to act.
"Deng Yong meets the two adults."
Facing this person who called himself "Deng Yong", Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naisha were a little surprised.
"Under is the general manager of Rongxian Glory Transportation Company."
"Glory Transport?" Wei Shunzhi thought about it for a while, and suddenly his face changed greatly: "Wang Hengyue's transfer company? ”
"Exactly."
Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naisha stood up suddenly: "Someone is coming"
"The two adults are not impatient, and it is not too late to catch them when they finish speaking."
Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naiyu glanced at each other and sat down slowly.
Deng Yong smiled slightly: "The two adults are under the Ma Junmen, although the Ma Junmen is gone, the Ma family is still there, and the grandson-in-law of Ma Junmen is now in Rong County, don't the two adults miss the old love and have to put my family to death?" ”
Wei Shunzhi snorted: "Wang Hengyue's rebellion, that is the capital crime of raiding the house and destroying the door, and now Ma Junmen's family is in Chengdu, and he has not yet been arrested, and he is thinking of that old feeling." Go back and tell Wang Hengyue, let him surrender quickly, we don't want to fight for the future, and we also want to keep his family's surname in front of Zhao Duxian, but Wang Hengyue, hum"
"My adults will not surrender, but the two adults really have to think about the future." Deng Yong said unhurriedly: "The patrol battalion of the two adults has not been built until now, but it has lost its troops, and if it continues to fight, the patrol battalion is only afraid that it will be finished, not to mention that the main force of Rong County has not yet come out?" In this world now, having soldiers and guns in hand is everything, and if the patrol battalion is really finished, won't adults feel distressed? Can it be rebuilt? ”
Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naiyan's faces changed slightly, and Deng Yong saw them all:
"What's more, if this battle is won, the credit belongs to Zhu Qinglan, what does it have to do with the two adults? But if he loses, I'm afraid that Zhu Qinglan will be the first to use the two adults as scapegoats. So when I think about it, I'm worried. ”
Wei and Jiang snorted coldly, but did not speak.
But what Deng Yong said did speak to their hearts.
Zhu Qinglan is deliberately using the patrol battalion to fight for consumption, and when the patrol battalion and the chaotic party are empty and exhausted, he Zhu Qinglan can pick a big peach by the trend.
But what about their own patrol battalion? In the past few days, not only have they suffered heavy losses, but they have also been repeatedly reprimanded by Zhu Qinglan, which has already made the brothers hold their breath in their hearts!
Deng Yong struck while the iron was hot: "Let's not talk about it for the time being, let's talk about personal affairs, why are you so desperate?" Ma Junmen took good care of the two adults before his death, and now his grandson-in-law is in trouble, and the adults can't see death without help, right? ”
Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naiyan's expressions have eased greatly, especially the previous words have moved them, and when it comes to the word private feelings, the donkey went downhill and let out a long sigh:
"Why don't we miss the kindness of the old military gate, it's just that Wang Hengyue has made too much trouble this time."
Deng Yong showed a smile on his face: "Our Lord Wang said it, it's not that the two adults want to let him go, and it's not that the two adults won't be beaten, in fact, why should the fight be so fierce?" Everyone has suffered heavy casualties, and it is not good for anyone. Why don't the two adults loosen their hands a little and attack a little slowly, and everyone looks good on their faces. ”
Wei Jiang and the others were silent, and Deng Yong took out two silver tickets and put them in front of the two: "The new army naturally fights with the new army, and it is all caused by the new army, what is the matter with patrolling the defense battalion?" I can't help them wipe this ass. My family knows that the two of you are hard, and you can accept the 20,000 taels of silver here. ”
Glancing at the silver ticket, Jiang Naiyu sighed and said: "Speaking of which, Wang Hengyue is still our son and nephew, he has caused such a big disaster, and those of us who are uncles are also responsible." Go back and tell Wang Hengyue that if you can, you can descend. When he was in Tibetan Province, he was still deeply appreciated by Zhao Duxian, and Zhao Duxian might leave his life for this feeling. ”
Wei Shunzhi also said: "If you want to blame, you can only blame those chaotic parties." In the end, he was young and fell into the poison of the chaotic party, so it was not too late for him to rein in the precipice. We all went on the day he got married, can we really watch him get his head chopped off! ”
"Thank you two adults, this kindness of the two of you, my family must not forget." Deng Yong made a gesture: "In addition, my family has a gift to give." ”
"Oh? It's too polite. What is it? ”
"Two hundred new rifles."
"Rifles?" Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naiyu glanced at each other, a little disbelieving: "The battle is so urgent now, I can't use enough guns, and I still have guns for us?" ”
"Exactly." Deng Yong said lightly: "My Rong County Machinery Bureau has produced more than 100 rifles, tens of thousands of bullets, and only 200 rifles. When the battle is over, what does it matter if the two adults want more guns? ”
Although the generation of the machine bureau can be exaggerated, it is very different in the ears of Wei Shunzhi and Jiang Naiyan.
No wonder Wang Hengyue had the courage to rebel, it turned out that there was an arsenal to support him. I have heard that one of the charges Zhao Duxian convicted Wang Hengyue of being a private firearm, and now it is really true.
He Wang Hengyue has strong firepower and plenty of bullets, so what are you afraid of if you fight for a month and a half? Zhu Qinglan wanted to fight for the abacus of consumption, but he was afraid that he was wrong.
Deng Yong said in a low voice: "As long as the two adults have permission, we will secretly transport it tonight." ”
"Bother, bother." A smile appeared on Wei Shunzhi's face: "Let's get out of the way, and I'll come to receive it in person." Go back and tell Shuzhi that if you really can't stand it, you can take refuge with us. ”
Deng Yong said with a long stroke:
"Thank you two adults, you will be rewarded in the future!"
