At the headquarters of the Guangzhou Commercial Investigation Bureau, in a bright and small closed room, Xu Chongzhi sat with handcuffs on the side, looking depressed. After a while, the door was opened, and a middle-aged man pushed a cart and walked in with a blank face, and then fiddled with some small objects on the side.

Xu Chongzhi was attracted by the man's movements, and raised his head to see what the hell that person was doing. Since being captured by the Zhenguo Army, he and Deng Yinnan have been escorted to Guangzhou, where they have stayed in this so-called investigation bureau for three days, but they have eaten and lived well and served themselves, and they have not let themselves be wronged, what are you doing today?

The middle-aged man put on his apron and didn't look back, muttering to himself, "My name is Onimian San, and for the next period of time, the two of us will experience the most advanced interrogation method in the world together." The sound seemed to be produced by metal friction, which made Xu Chongzhi unbearable.

I saw Ghost Face San raise his hand, holding a small white pliers in his hand: "This is for pulling out your fingernails, of course, I will inject you with a potion beforehand, so that your pain nerves can play the greatest role." "Ghost Face introduces the torture instruments placed on the cart one by one in a slow and orderly manner, and focuses on depicting the effects of the torture instruments after acting on people. He turned his head, smiled and said, "So, you understand, let's start with the first one!" ”

"Don't! What do you want to know? I say it all! Xu Chongzhi shouted hysterically, his spirit was on the verge of collapse before he even started, he was just a young man less than eighteen years old, how could he withstand such a terrible punishment! The ghost face Trinity spoke in a big chase that worked.

Ghost Face San shook his head, a dissatisfied look appeared on his face, the door opened, and two interrogators walked in, and said to Ghost Face San: "Don't be annoyed, leave it to us next, you can go next door and give it a try, maybe that Deng Yinnan's bones are harder, which can satisfy your perverted desire for torture." Xu Chongzhi's words made Xu Chongzhi even more panicked, fortunately, he gave in early, that ghost face three is a devil, and he actually takes pleasure in torturing people!

"Let's say, what we want to know is very simple, why did Xingzhong collude with Xu Yingkui, what are the secrets in the middle, we will guarantee your life after you tell everything."

Compared with Xu Chongzhi's simplicity, Deng Yinnan is much more difficult to deal with, and the integrity embodied by this veteran of the Xingzhong Society makes the interrogators feel that they are the villain! Unlike Xu Chongzhi, Deng Yinnan is a person with a truly revolutionary spirit, and although his deeds are despicable, he still has faith.

It's just that fifteen minutes after Ghost Face III entered, all the persistence and belief collapsed, and Deng Yinnan really experienced a regional journey - he didn't want to die yet, and he didn't want to go to hell yet!

After the fact, the investigation bureau handed over the results of the interrogation to Lu Liang, and it was obvious that Sun Ge's Xingzhong Society, or some of the people represented by Sun Ge in the Xingzhong Society, had become dizzy and had changed from carrying out a revolution with the support of the Japanese government to being a dog leg of the Japanese government. It is difficult to say whether they did this because of the revolutionary purpose or to realize their desire for power, but none of this matters, what is important is that Lü Liang thoroughly recognized Sun Ge's true colors.

The provisional government soon issued an order banning and wanted orders against the Xingzhonghui, and publicized the conspiracy of Sun Ge and others. After Sun Ge accepted the demands of the Japanese government, he betrayed the country and the nation, and deserved to be condemned and spurned by everyone.

This incident also made Lü Liang pay attention to what he had been negligent all along, and that most of the activities of many revolutionary forces such as Sun Ge were overseas, and their activities were supported by overseas Chinese. They are active in the United States, Honolulu, Japan, Southeast Asia, Europe, and South Africa. Big businessmen, Chinese gangs, and ordinary people are all their supporters, and this is a force to be reckoned with. Originally, in history, most of the success of the Xinhai Revolution was attributed to overseas Chinese. This made Lu Liang realize that in order to achieve his goal, overseas Chinese should not be ignored, at least let them recognize the true face of Sun Ge and others.

The purpose of attacking Sun Ge was to prevent him from continuing to stumble and make tricks for the Zhenguo Party, but Sun Ge had been engaged in revolutionary activities for many years, had deep overseas roots, and had many followers. To achieve the goal, it is necessary to have a detailed plan.

In August 1902, during the vigorous rise of the large-scale construction movement in Fujian, Zhang Taiyan returned from Tokyo, Japan, and after landing in Guangzhou, he went directly to the Prime Minister's Office of the Provisional Government to see Lu Liang.

"Mr. Prime Minister, this is Cai Yuanpei, Wang Jiawei, Tao Chengzhang, Wei Lan, and Gong Baoquan, all of whom were my friends when I was in Japan, and they are all like-minded people, according to the Prime Minister, they are all comrades!" Lu Liang shook hands with everyone one by one, these people were all veterans of the establishment of the Restoration Society, but only Zhang Taiyan and Cai Yuanpei themselves had an impression. However, the Liberation Society has not yet been established, and it was originally necessary to wait until next year.

"I, Lu Liang, speak quickly, and say whatever I have in my heart. I am very happy that you can come to Guangzhou to meet me, which shows that the revolutionary activities of the Zhenguo Party have been recognized by everyone. Our revolutionary goals are the same, but there are slight differences in ideas and modes of action, but this does not prevent us from joining hands to carry forward the revolutionary cause. ”

"Premier Lu is right, to be honest, several of us have great admiration for Premier Lu. I had only heard a few words in Japan before, but after Tai Yan returned, he carefully described the concept of the Zhenguo Party, the content of its actions, and its deeds in Guangdong. While we were still struggling to pursue the revolutionary road, the Revitalization Party had already taken substantial steps and achieved great success. What is even more exciting is that the Zhenguo Army defeated the Japanese aggressors and won the victory in the anti-aggression war, which shows even more that the energy of the revolutionaries is huge. So we came this time to hear Premier Lu's teachings, how should we continue to carry on our cause? Cai Yuanpei said, these words are from his sincerity, at this time he is in his thirties, mature thinking, but in the face of the Manchu Qing still has a sense of powerlessness. Many of his friends had joined the Xingzhong Society, but he disagreed with the Society, believing that the Society attached great importance to the armed revolution, but its leaders lived abroad and had more propaganda than practice. He advocated that in addition to propagating the revolution, the main thing should be the power and implementation of the revolution.

"Comrades, since the beginning of the revolutionary cause, I have not described in detail to others the revolutionary path I hope for, but the Zhenguo Party has actually followed this path. This path has proven to be the right one, as evidenced by the results achieved so far. This path is to develop industry, accumulate funds, and at the same time secretly carry out revolutionary propaganda and armed preparations, and after the accumulated strength reaches a certain level, find the right time to carry out an armed uprising, and through armed struggle, overthrow the local Manchu regime, establish a revolutionary base area, and then continue to accumulate and strengthen its own strength, and finally overthrow the rule of the Manchu Dynasty. The advantage of this is that the revolutionary organization has a relatively good practical foundation, and funds, personnel, armament, and propaganda are indispensable. Comrades, the revolution still has to be carried out at home, and it is still necessary to advance in a down-to-earth manner and step by step. ”

"We have also discussed in the past about developing the party's strength in the country, trying to have a certain foundation, establishing secret services, and training armed personnel, but these are all in our minds and have not yet become a reality. Those shameless bureaucrats, as well as the Manchu rulers, will be the targets of our assassination! Zhang Taiyan said. In China, he has contacted a large number of people with lofty ideals, such as Xu Xilin and Qiu Jin, who have used assassination as a means to promote the revolution, and it is all the rage. Zhang Taiyan's words were murderous, and everyone also looked like they agreed.

It is inevitable that revolutionary organizations will be immature in the early days, after all, not everyone has the advantage of being a traverser. Lu Liang's purpose was to lead these people in a direction that was beneficial to him.

"Assassination can only be done for a short time, and it will be a waste of our precious revolutionary strength, and now that the revolution has entered the stage of being in full swing, the liberation of Guangdong and Fujian has caused a great sensation throughout the country. The most important thing now is to continue to strengthen the strength of the revolution, to establish revolutionary organizations in other areas that have not yet been recovered, to attract people with lofty ideals to join us, to infiltrate the Manchu officialdom and the army, and to lay a good foundation for the advancement of the revolutionary forces in the future. Frankly, I would love to work with you and be part of this revolution. ”

In fact, Cai Yuanpei and the others had already discussed it before they came, otherwise they would not have come together, several people looked at each other, and then Zhang Taiyan nodded and said to Lu Liang: "We recognize that the Zhenguo Party is the leader of the revolutionary organization at this stage, and we are willing to join the Zhenguo Party and contribute our strength." How to do it, please also ask Premier Lu to make it clear. ”

"Great! On behalf of the Zhenguo Party, I welcome everyone to join, and someone will help you complete the specific procedures later. Now I have an important task for you. ”

"Premier Lu, please speak."

"I will provide a lot of financial and manpower support, and your task is to establish branches of the Zhenguo Party throughout the country, and as for the specific work of the branches, there will be a detailed plan for you. In addition, there are many overseas Chinese who are revolutionary, and we need to win them over, so overseas branches also need to be established. ”
