Chapter 51: The Uninvited Woman (I)
During the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, a large number of revolutionaries emerged in China, among which there were many female revolutionaries and many famous, but the most praised were undoubtedly the three heroines of modern Chinese history.
The so-called three heroes of the female world in modern Chinese history are recognized as three people, namely Qiu Jin, Yin Ruizhi and Yin Weijun, among which Qiu Jin does not need to be said, as for Yin Ruizhi and Yin Weijun, they are a pair of sisters, and they are also Qiu Jin's proud disciples.
Of course, from a modern point of view, what these three women did did not play much practical role in the changes of the times at that time, without them would not have caused any major changes in history, they can be praised, mainly because of the spirit, the spirit of resisting authority, resisting tyranny and fighting for women's rights, this spirit may not be conspicuous for the time being, and it has no big effect, but it has a subtle effect and sets an example for future generations.
However, in Li Zhigao's view, Qiu Jin is just that, he is an adult, he is enlightened by himself, and he can be regarded as a truly mature revolutionary, but as Qiu Jin's disciples, Yin Ruizhi and Yin Weijun are not the same, they were more influenced when they were young, and they were led into the revolutionary road, and in terms of influence, they can't be compared with Qiu Jin at all.
How Yin Ruizhi embarked on the revolutionary road, I won't talk about it here, it's nothing more than words and deeds, and now I just talk about how Yin Ruizhi and Li Zhigao met.
This has to start with Yin Ruizhi, Yin Ruizhi is just twenty years old at this time, younger than Li Zhigao, but under the cultivation and teaching of Qiu Jin, he is already a senior member of the Restoration Society and a gold medal assassin, playing a good bomb and a good boxing technique, when the beloved teacher Qiu Jin sacrificed, he was full of anger, determined to take revenge, and to carry out the anti-Qing cause to the end!
Just last year, she went north with Wang Jinfa and others, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate important members of the Qing court, but unfortunately she never waited for the opportunity, and then after Wang Zhaoming's matter was revealed, the Qing court imposed martial law, and they had no chance.
After the situation changed, Tao Chengzhang and others, who were far away under the remote command, asked Yin Ruizhi to give up the assassination operation and return to Shanghai to contact the anti-Qing fighters in order to preserve their strength, so the good comrade Yin Ruizhi obediently went to Shanghai, set up a Ruijin Society incognito in the French Concession in Shanghai, and began to publish the "Ruijin Journal", as the general organ of the Guangfu Society in Shanghai, and became the actual leader of the Guangfu Society in China.
If everything is normal, it is said that Yin Ruizhi should honestly run her school and newspaper at this time, contact her anti-Qing scholars, recruit new members to join, and study the bomb by the way, and then in the autumn of 1910, she will go to Shaoxing and assassinate Qiu Jin, who is said to have betrayed Qiu Jin, but in fact, she was wronged Hu Daonan, but now because of the sudden appearance of such a character as Li Zhigao, her original itinerary has changed.
It should be said that Li Zhigao's rise was too fast, like a meteor that suddenly appeared, so fast that people on all sides were caught off guard, not only by the unresponsive Qing court, but also by other anti-Qing groups.
Let's not talk about how the rare things that Li Zhigao made were sold in a big way, it can only be said that he is a businessman with a background and can get rare things, but he pretended to take the opportunity of the "revolutionary party rebellion" to repel the "revolutionary party rebels" and make himself the acting commander of the patrol battalion.
But since then, Li Zhigao has not done anything high-profile, although he seems to have recruited troops, but the number of recruits is not too much, barely under the bottom line of the Qing political axe tolerance, and then Li Zhigao hid this part of the army, easily disappeared, and usually did not interfere too much in the administrative affairs of the Taiping Mansion, everything seems to be the same as before, the prefect is the prefect, the commander is the commander, the officialdom is harmonious, and the market is stable.
After that, it is a relatively high-profile thing, I am afraid that Li Zhigao said that he wantonly suppressed the Huidaomen organization in the city some time ago, and everyone was afraid of him, and the other is to set up a local factory and open a school, and wantonly enclose land outside the city, but these can only be said to be a commercial behavior, not too much of an extraordinary.
In this way, at least in the eyes of outsiders, Li Zhigao was just a greedy businessman with a unique vision and good luck, and he was very good at speculation, and there was no sign of overthrowing the Manchus, even if his army had actually completely mastered the Taiping Province, which was the most powerful armed force in the Taiping Province, but those things were also believed by others to be just to protect his own industry.
Li Zhigao gradually faded out of most people's field of vision, but as time went by, there were also many smart people who saw other things from some clues, and they all felt that there was no news, the so-called revolutionary party rebels who almost captured Taiping Mansion should have been directed and acted by Li Zhigao, otherwise it would not be so coincidental.
Oh, the Taiping Mansion patrol battalion with good combat effectiveness was easily lured out of the city by the rebels and annihilated, and then the rebels were completely annihilated by the militia group, and then the militia turned into a patrol battalion and actually controlled Taiping Mansion...... To say that it's not a bit boring here, that's a weird thing.
Obviously, Tao Chengzhang, who is far away, is also one of such smart people, so after he got the news, he began to be interested in this Li Zhigao, so he sent a telegram to Yin Ruizhi, asking her to take the time to investigate the origin of Li Zhigao, and to find out what the truth is about the rebel patrol battalion.
In this way, President Yin Ruizhi, who was holding back in Shanghai, ignored the persuasion of others, went up the river, and quietly came to Taiping Mansion to investigate Li Zhigao's affairs in person.
Yin Ruizhi has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he was trained by Qiu Jin when he was a teenager, and he is already an out-and-out good assassin and a good secret agent, and he is still wanted by the Qing political axe, so he is naturally used to being dark and dark, and he doesn't like to follow the right path.
Therefore, after Yin Ruizhi came to Taiping Mansion yesterday afternoon, she planned to immediately go to carefully investigate the strength of the patrol battalion, so she came to the vicinity of the patrol battalion in disguise and climbed a big tree opposite the camp, intending to observe it from a distance first.
Coincidentally, just when Yin Ruizhi climbed the tree and began to observe the patrol battalion station that was said to be heavily defended from a distance, Li Zhigao also happened to lead the team to patrol the patrol battalion station, and when the boss came, the security force was immediately increased by several levels.
In this way, not long after Yin Ruizhi climbed the tree to observe, he was immediately discovered by the sentry officers of the patrol battalion with a telescope, after all, the nearby highlands have long been the focus of observation. After that, it was a joint pursuit of chickens and dogs, and in the end, Yin Ruizhi, who was strong in martial arts, was still captured by the patrol battalion infantry team and the joint police force in this unfamiliar Taiping Mansion, but fortunately, the people in the patrol battalion were ordered to catch them alive and did not shoot, Yin Ruizhi surrendered immediately after finding that he could not escape, so he was not injured much.
After that, the process was very simple, find a woman to search her body, and after finding that there was no weapon, she tied her hands and was escorted to let Li Zhigao personally interrogate, at first she was naturally quibbling in every way, only saying that she came here to shop in the boutique department store, and was curious about the military camp here, and wanted to see it from a distance, but Zheng Yun on the side said prettyly, saying that he knew her and knew who she was.
In passing words, after the patrol battalion was wiped out, in view of Zheng Yun's indecisiveness and women's kindness, Li Zhigao redeployed the commanders of the special operations forces, simply put, a guard platoon was specially added, and it became a company of four platoons.
First of all, 20 people were selected from the platoon of Lin Sanxi of the special operations company, plus 30 people drawn from the recruits, to form a new guard platoon of 50 people, and the commander was changed to Zheng Yun in charge, these people are all more than 1.7 meters tall, have a strong physique, have a good image, are equipped with AKM and dragon scale armor body armor, and are not responsible for combat in peacetime, mainly to protect Li Zhigao's personal safety.
The original rocket artillery platoon was changed to be in charge of Zheng Yun's original deputy Zhao Baosen, anyway, it was not too difficult to learn, it was literate, arithmetic, knew detailed training methods, and practiced a few more times.
After Lin Sanxi's platoon replenished some of the recruits, its establishment and equipment remained basically unchanged, but with the addition of agricultural four-wheeled vehicles, and the soldiers were each equipped with a walkie-talkie, it became a mobile strike force, and it is still training in a secret camp.
As for Wang Erbiao's platoon, his number and equipment have not moved at all, but he and his platoon were sent to Shanghai by Li Zhigao early to cooperate with a guy named Zhou Zhengbin, who is familiar with the situation in Shanghai, to do things in Shanghai together, and he has not come back yet, but this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
In short, Zheng Yun has now become the captain of Li Zhigao's bodyguard, and when he heard that Zheng Yun knew that woman, Li Zhigao hurriedly asked, only then did he know that she was Yin Ruizhi, a key criminal wanted by the imperial court.
