Chapter Ninety-Six: The Revolutionary Party
Sun Wei felt that his whole body was falling apart, lying on the ground weakly, and it was difficult to move even his fingers. Sun Wei opened his eyes and found that the sky was gray, and the afterglow of the sun was about to dissipate. It is a miracle that the violent explosion did not kill himself, and he did not even blow up his clothes, but only shook himself to the point of weakness. Sun Wei raised his arm with difficulty, and the hands of the watch showed that it was half past seven. Consciousness gradually recovered, and Sun Wei suddenly thought that there were two more bandits. Sun Wei laboriously supported his whole body with his hands, and looked around, and the two bandits were lying on the stone next to him, their heads covered in blood and motionless, not knowing whether they were dead or alive. Sun Wei put his hand next to the nose of a bandit and found that he was no longer breathing, he probed and probed that the other bandit was also dead, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, shouting that he was so lucky.
He lay on the ground weakly, and it took about ten minutes before he gradually regained his strength. Sun Wei slowly stood up, only to find that the place where he was lying was the shore of a small lake, through the last rays of the sun could see a row of buildings that could enter the Chinese cultural heritage, a few people in long shirts could be vaguely seen walking around the street, and a few policemen with rifles and big braids under their big caps were driving people on the street. "Where am I" Sun Wei thought blankly: "Am I wearing it too, this is too bloody." "Thanks to Sun Wei's reading more novels, he has a strong receptivity, so he won't be scared into mental illness." Look at the outfit, this should be the end of the Qing Dynasty. Sun Wei thought.
After accepting the fact that he had crossed over, Sun Wei began to check his things, after all, life had to go on. My backpack is still there, which is a blessing in misfortune. The phone was broken and reshaped, but it was kept as a souvenir. The drawings in the bag are enough to make a living in this world, and Sun Wei is not so entangled when he thinks of this. Sun Wei turned around to look at the two robbers and was immediately happy. The robbers had two AK-47s, two bulletproof vests and two backpacks, one of the robbers had two small pumpkin grenades hanging from his waist, and the other robber only had two grenade rings on his waist. These two grenades didn't blow themselves up, but they brought themselves to this unknown world, and they didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse.
Sun Wei took off the robbers' bulletproof vests, one in his bag, and one in his clothes. Sun Wei opened the robbers' backpacks, one of them was loaded with one or two dozen grenades and some bullets, about a few thousand rounds, it seemed that the robbers were going to fight a protracted battle for the police but were destroyed by themselves. When he opened the other backpack, his eyes immediately straightened, and he exclaimed that he had made a fortune. It turned out that the other bag contained a bag of gold and silver jewelry and some jewelry, which was worth seven or eight million if it was worth not 10 million in modern times, no wonder the two robbers were so desperate.
When Sun Wei was happy, a gunshot came from a distance, and Sun Wei's hand shook and he dropped the bag on the ground. With the sound of gunfire came a revolutionary slogan, Sun Wei dropped the bag he was carrying on his back, took off the grenade from the corpse and hung it on his body and threw the corpse into the water, put a gun in the bag where the weapon was placed, and walked towards the shouting place with another AK-47. Sun Wei clearly knew that this was his chance, he did not have braids, once he was caught by the Qing army, he would definitely be killed as a revolutionary party, and if he joined the uprising, he might even get the title of a revolutionary meritorious service. The future is a revolutionary party, and the mainstream is a republic, and since we have come to this world, we will fight for it, and it will not be in vain for us to wear this meeting. Forty or fifty rebels shouting for revolution stopped when they saw the young men in front of them wearing strange clothes (casual clothes) and holding strange guns, and they all pointed their guns at Sun Wei, if they hadn't seen Sun Wei without braids, they would have opened fire.
At this time, a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old young man walked out of the crowd and said to Sun Wei: "Who are you, why are you blocking our way!" Sun Wei said: "I am Sun Wei of the Revolutionary Party, and I came to command the uprising on the orders of Mr. Sun Yat-sen. When everyone heard that he was also a revolutionary, Sun Wei breathed a sigh of relief and said secretly: "It seems that Sun Cannon's cannon has a deterrent effect everywhere." The young man said, "Since you were sent by Mr. Sun Yat-sen, what evidence do you have?" Sun Wei didn't have any evidence, and hurriedly said: "My gun is a gift from Mr. Sun himself, and the power is comparable to the Maxim machine gun." After saying that, he fired several shots into the distance, and everyone was shocked. Sun Wei continued: "I also brought the activity funds in front, you can go and have a look." With that, he pointed in the direction he had come. Sun Wei asked, "Which unit are you from?" The young man replied: "We are the eighth battalion of the New Army Engineering, and I am Xiong Bingkun, the head of the rear team." ”
"Xiong Bingkun! Xiong Bingkun, who fired the first shot of the Xinhai Revolution! Revolution! Sun Wei exclaimed.
At this time, another person came out of the crowd and said to Xiong Bingkun: "Xiong is short of time!" Xiong Bingkun said: "We are going to the Chuwangtai Ordnance Institute, where are you?" Sun Wei said: "Come over and help me get something, let's go together." Sun Wei picked up the bag where the weapon was placed, handed the other two bags to the two people who came to help, and shouted together and marched towards the Chuwangtai Ordnance Station. By the time Sun Wei and the others arrived at the armory, the defenders of the armory had already driven away the reactionary officers to rendezvous. When about 40 people from the 8th Engineering Battalion led by Xiong Bingkun arrived at Chuwangtai, the officers and men of the 8th Engineering Battalion of the Chuwangtai Ordnance Institute who stayed behind greeted them. The armory was owned by the revolutionaries, and the ammunition was freely available.
Just as Sun Wei, Xiong Bingkun and others wanted to obtain the weapons and ammunition of the ordnance station, another group of rebels arrived at Chuwangtai. Led by Xiong Bingkun, it turned out that Zhou Dingyuan, a soldier of the eighth battalion of the project, and Xiong Bingkun were both organizers of the eighth battalion of the project. When Zhou Dingyuan learned that Sun Wei was the representative sent by Mr. Sun Yat-sen and brought military expenses and uprising arrangements, he was overjoyed and wanted to respect Sun Wei as the commander-in-chief.
It turned out that on October 9, Sun Wu made a bomb at the office of the Communist Association at No. 14, Baoshanli, in the Russian Concession of Hankou, and accidentally exploded. The Russian patrol heard the news and went to search, and the wounded Sun Wu and the people who were present quickly escaped, but important secrets such as documents, seals, and flags of the uprising were searched. Liu's apartment, which was adjacent to the CCP organ, was also raided, and Liu Gong's brother Liu Tong and four others were arrested. Upon hearing the news of the search and arraignment, the Governor of Huguang felt the urgency of the situation and immediately ordered martial law throughout the city, to search the revolutionary organs by location, and to arrest the revolutionaries according to the register.
At about 5 p.m. on the same day, Jiang Yiwu, Liu Fuji, and other military leaders at the general headquarters of the uprising in Xiaochao Street, Wuchang, learned that there had been an accident in Hankou and that the plan for the uprising had been exposed. He decided to advance the uprising to 12 o'clock that night, and immediately sent people to secretly convey the order of the uprising to the revolutionaries in the barracks of the New Army. That night, the general headquarters of the Xiaochao Street Uprising was surrounded, and the military and police broke in. Liu Fuji was arrested in a hurry to drop a bomb without exploding, Peng Chufan was also arrested, and Jiang Yiwu was not noticed by the military and police because he was wearing a long robe and a horse coat and long braids, so he escaped. Party member Yang Hongsheng was followed by the military police on the way to deliver ammunition to the battalions, and he accidentally injured himself and fell into the hands of the enemy.
Due to the martial law of the whole city, the city gates were closed, and the order could not be delivered to the artillery outside the city on time, and the plan for the uprising was not realized at 12 o'clock that night. On the morning of 10 October, the news spread that Peng Chufan, Liu Fuji, and Yang Hongsheng had bravely died at the Huguang Governor's Office, and the military and police were still conducting an intense search. Many revolutionaries and the soldiers of the new army who had been mobilized were thinking about their lives and deaths. Instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to fight to the death.
The uprising is on the verge of breaking out, which is why this uprising took place. Because Sun Wu was wounded and hospitalized, Jiang Yiwu escaped during the military and police raid, and the other leaders of the uprising were martyred or arrested. Therefore, when I learned that Sun Wei was the representative sent by Mr. Sun Yat-sen, I suddenly had a feeling of finding an organization, and I was willing to hand over the command and let Sun Wei take unified command. Xiong Bingkun saw that Zhou Ding was willing to give up the command, how could he love the power, so he handed over the command to Sun Wei. Sun Dawei called this a real revolutionary, too public and selfless.
At this time, more than 300 people gathered at the armory, and most of the soldiers joined temporarily. Because there was no officer, the soldiers were inevitably indulgent, and the order gradually became messy, which was completely different from the command when the attack was successful. Sun Wei walked to the door of the armory, pointed the muzzle of the AK-47 gun in his hand to the sky and pulled the trigger, and suddenly the gunfire was loud, and everyone was also stunned, thinking secretly about what kind of gun this was and how it was like a Maxim machine gun.
Seeing that the scene was quiet, Sun Wei lowered the muzzle of his gun and said loudly: "My name is Sun Wei, and I am entrusted by Mr. Sun Yat-sen to take over from Mr. Sun Wu to command the uprising. As long as the Huguang Governor's Office is taken today, it will be a victory, and it will only take three or four days to fill the south of the Yangtze River with the land of our revolutionary army. Don't be frightened by the Qing army, as long as we resist the attack of the Qing army for three or five days, the world will be our revolutionary army. At that time, you will be the meritorious deeds of the founding of the country and the heroes of China. ”
Sun Wei took the bag from the soldier who helped him carry the bag, took out the information about the Xinhai Revolution and read: "Now I announce the appointment of Xiong Bingkun as the deputy commander-in-chief, Zhou Dingyuan as the senator, Xu Shaobin as the captain of the front team, Luo Bingshun as the captain of the left team, Yang Jinlong as the captain of the right team, and Jin Zhaolong as the captain of the rear team. Every time Sun Wei pronounced a name, Xiong Bingkun and Zhou Dingyuan were shocked, it turned out that Sun Wei knew us well.
The commanders of each team gradually found the backbone, and the soldiers quieted down. After the soldiers returned to their respective teams, Sun Wei opened the armory and distributed guns and ammunition to the soldiers. After distributing guns and ammunition, Sun Wei issued an order based on the records of the Xinhai Revolution:
First, this army should be named "Revolutionary Army" and called the "Hubei Revolutionary Army." Its branch number should be temporarily attacked using the old system. Second, our army's battle tonight should be based on the principle of sabotaging the administrative organs of Hubei and completing the independence of Wuchang. Third, the greatest goal of the army's operations is to clean up the Governor's Office. The enemy's Zhang Biao, Tie Zhong, Li Xianglin, etc., deployed defenses in the large and small Dusi Lane, Xigu Lane, Wujia Lane, Wangshanmen Main Street, Water and Land Street, Leopard Head Embankment and other places. Fourth, the army took Chuwangtai and Snake Mountain as artillery positions, and went south from Yuemachang and Dachao Street to Baoanmen Main Street, which was the infantry defense line. For the time being, Chuwangtai is the base camp of the army. Fifth, Jin Zhaolong led the second platoon of the rear team and the first and second platoons of the right team out of Zhonghe Gate, and went to Nanhu through the cross street to threaten the eighth standard of the artillery team to respond, and cover the entry into the city. Sixth, Luo Bingshun led the third platoon of the left team to occupy Qianjia Street and alerted the 15th Tiefo Temple and Fulong Temple. Seventh, Xiong Bingkun led the whole rear team, and before attacking the Supervision Office through the Tianjin Sluice Gate and the main street of the security gate, Wu Zhenglin led the front team to assist Xiong Bingkun along the wall of the security gate to Wangshan Gate, and he must send troops to contact the middle of the two lines. Eighth, Xu Shaobin led the third platoon of the front team to occupy the Chuwangtai and Zhonghemen heights, and deployed defenses to the Tianjin sluice. 9. The rest of the troops shall be in general reserve and shall be on standby at the Ordnance Station. Tenth, tonight's slogan is: "Work together".
Commander-in-Chief Sun Wei was at the Ordnance Institute at 8:20 p.m
At this time, there was no movement in the various standards, battalions, and teams. Sun Wei immediately ordered a part of the General Reserve to enter the skirmish trench (which had been erected by the Qing officials on 12 August and was all for our use) and fired heavily at the 15th Association to urge it to respond. Before long, Ma Mingxi, the leader of the 30th standard platoon of the 15th Association, Zhengmu Fang Wei and Xie Yongquan led more than 100 soldiers to the meeting; Cai Jimin, Hu Xiaoqian, and other platoon leaders of the 29th Standard of the 15th Association also brought more than 100 people to the meeting; More than 100 students from the Army Surveying and Mapping School also went to Chuwangtai. At this time, the two attacking teams began to set off, and Cai Jimin, the platoon leader of the 29th standard, volunteered to attack with the team on the right side. Sun Wei also sent Ma Mingxi, Fang Wei and others to lead troops out of the city to help Jin Zhaolong take over the artillery team. Sun Wei ordered the surveying and mapping students to serve as a general reserve and sent them to the city wall around Zhonghemen to Tongxiangmen to guard against the enemy's attack. The artillery team entered the city after overtime, that is, the artillery position was arranged at Chuwangtai.
First, Jin Zhaolong led his troops through Zhonghe Gate and wanted to go out of the city to Nanhu to meet the artillery team. Gold to the city gate, the door has been keyed, the gatekeeper fled without a trace, and the lock could not be opened without a key. Jin Zhaolong buckled both ends of the lock with both hands, pulled it out into his arms, and the iron lock, which was long and weighed three catties, was broken into several sections and was able to get out of the city. Zhang Biao knew that the revolutionary army would respond with an artillery team, and ordered Sun Guoan, the commander of the 32nd standard, to transfer the team officer Chu Ying to lead two teams and arrange the main road. met Jin at Changhongqiao, fought fiercely for several minutes, and Chu retreated without fighting spirit; Jin continued to advance, went to the Nanhu Parade Pavilion, and made contact with the horse team sentry, and after a few minutes, the horse team soldiers automatically retreated. Jin Zhaolong broke through two obstacles and reached the eighth standard of the artillery team after the camp gate, when the artillery team had responded, Jin Sui and the artillery standard Cai Hanqing, Cheng Guozhen, Meng Facheng, Xu Wannian and others talked about the hope that the artillery team would enter the city like a great drought. However, it was inconvenient to drive at night, so the two sides and the soldiers dragged three cannons and marched towards the city. Those who came with him were Li Zuodong and Deng Yulin, who were the ones who did not leave the artillery team that delivered the letter last night. Ma Mingxi and Fang Wei also led the team into the city. The artillery bombardment of the Huguang Governor's Office was too dark but it also greatly boosted the morale of the army. At the beginning of the cannonball, Du Wuku and Yang Xuanqing of the third battalion of the 29th standard, and Xu Daming and Wu Xinghan of the second and third battalions of the 30th standard all raised troops to the meeting.
