Chapter 110: A Guest from Far Away (Part II)
1908 Far East Maniac Chapter 110 Far Away is a Guest (II)
From the standpoint of the Manchu Dynasty, these Sichuan revolutionaries are a fish."
Originally. As soon as the news of the uprising of the Anqing New Army reached Sichuan. Xiong Kewu and Huang Shu immediately instigated the Central Sichuan Hui Party to raise troops in response. But most of the soldiers were Wu-Zhizhong, and it only took Zhao Erxun, the governor of Sichuan, to break them up in a few days. Many comrades died under the knife of "Zhao Tu". The members of the alliance in the Sichuan New Army were also exposed. had to leave the Forces nouvelles.
After the defeat of the uprising. The crowd was scattered. Flee to their respective places. Some gathered at the house of a distant relative in Xiong Kewu, as agreed. A discussion. It was decided to contact the Hubei Revolutionary Army.
Everyone finally saw that they would escape from Sichuan. A detour from Shaanxi with the help of the party. Embark on the ship from Hanzhong. Rushed to Wuhan to call for troops. It is hoped that the commander-in-chief will be able to move forward quickly. Sweep away the stubborn forces in Sichuan. Help the League establish a revolutionary junta.
Good advice. But the commander-in-chief had other plans.
"It's a guest from afar. You've worked hard all the way. Let's not say anything else. Start with a good meal. You're just in time, don't you come here now. You'll only have to eat boiled tofu in plain water. This Wuhan tofu is no better than the mapo tofu of the four of you. Very light. β
Zhao Bei smiled and invited these revolutionary comrades from afar to sit at the table. Sit at the same table with yourself. The only Republican Army officers who accompanied him were Lan Tianwei and Wu Luzhen. Wu Luzhen was introduced to Zhao Bei by Lan Tianwei. Now he is the vice-principal of the Officers' Crash School. And he is also the chief judge of the Republican Army. Specifically, he is responsible for the discipline of the troops. In accordance with Zhao Bei's order, a professional gendarmerie unit is being formed on the basis of the former Hubei military police.
Zi was invited from a restaurant in the three towns of Wuhan. The craftsmanship is superb. When the action is not very good. The dish has been stir-fried and served. They are all Hubei cuisines known for their "salty and fresh" flavors, especially the dishes. Steamed white balls with tamales. Beads. Steamed fish. Thousands of pieces of meat and eight treasures sea cucumber. Fish ingots meat. Tiger skin hooves... Many delicacies are brought up. The color, smell and flavor are all complete, and just one glance makes people salivate.
Take into account human tastes. ^Hand ^ hit ^ small ^ said @@ζδΎ^^ Zhao Bei also specially told the cook to fry the chili pepper now. Fry the chili oil and serve it to make them spicy enough.
But. It is not permissible to give a speech before the official opening of the feast.
Military uniforms stood erect on a podium made of several ammunition boxes. After Zhao Bei made a constructive summary of the revolution. He also made a thorough analysis of the domestic and international situation. Show everyone a glittering revolutionary avenue.
Quickly bunched up the speech. Walk back to the table. Zhao Bei took off the big-brimmed hat. Pick up the chopsticks on the table, lift the chopsticks with your right hand, and point to the dishes on the table. Pick up the glass with your left hand. I gave the officers a toast first.
The commander-in-chief took the lead. Everyone followed suit, picked up the chopsticks, and did it in one go.
Coarse tea and light rice on weekdays. It's not just the soldiers who can't see the oil star. Even officials rarely eat such a sumptuous feast. At this time, it is difficult to have the opportunity to eat some small meat. Have a little wine. Who will be humble? Present. I only heard the sound of "smacking" in the auditorium. Besides. There was no other voice. Almost all of them have delicious food in their mouths.
Sichuan guests saw this scene. It's not inhibited. Along the way, we ate and slept in the open. Either steamed bread is pickles, or pickles are steamed bread. The birds have long since faded out of the mouths of the people. At this time, the commander-in-chief took the lead in munching on the case. You can't be left behind. So it was also a burst of gobbling. Several leaders of the party also held up sea bowls and toasted the commander-in-chief again and again. But they were all blocked back by Zhao Bei on the grounds that "it is inconvenient to drink in the army". I only drank two glasses of rice wine and put down the wine glass. Concentrate on eating.
Only Xiong Kewu and Huang Shu and several other League cadres were anxious. The food is not sweet. The wine is even more sorrowful. Everyone's brows were twisted into an inverted figure. The word "sorrow" was clearly written on his face.
They can't afford not to worry. Now Zhao Erxun is killing in Sichuan. The anti-Qing forces that the League had managed to organize with great difficulty were about to disappear. If you can't get back to Sichuan as soon as possible. Eliminate Zhao Erxun. So. Even if Sichuan recovers in the future. I'm afraid there will be nothing more in the alliance. I think of Mr. Sun's advice and trust before leaving Japan. There is no taste in everyone's hearts. Recall the Kawanaka Uprising. Let's look at the current situation in Hubei. Not one of them did not regret his bowels. If only it wasn't so reckless at the time. If it was the New Army that was instigated at that time. If...... If only time could be turned back. They're going to turn around. It's just a matter of relaunching an uprising. This time the uprising will be dominated by the Forces nouvelles.
The New Army is good. than will come. The Forces nouvelles are disciplined and armed. Moreover, the Sichuan New Army is stationed in Phoenix Mountain, a suburb of the provincial wall. Once an uprising is instigated. Chengdu can be captured quickly. Chengdu is recovered. All parts of Sichuan will definitely respond. It's time. The puppet Qing governor of Sichuan could only be arrested.
But this is hindsight after all. Due to the slow development of the Central Organization of the New Army. In addition, the puppet governor of the Qing Dynasty moved too quickly. As a result, the new army was disarmed before it could be instigated. And you can't do revolution with your bare hands. This is also the biggest lesson of the failure of the Sichuan uprising.
The days of chopping wood for soldiers are over. It's the age of machine guns and cannons!
Compared to the failure of Sichuan. The success of the Hejun army in Hubei was so dazzling. Not only the province was recovered. And won one of the best arsenals in the country. And also provoked this
The general trend of the revolution. This glorious record. The enviable one is also a little jealous.
Why wasn't it the League that provoked this trend?
Everyone is in their hearts*.
Huang Shuzhong wanted to open his mouth several times. But when I saw the wolfing of the north. I had to swallow the words back. Just now, everyone already knew from the mouths of others. The commander-in-chief shared the weal and sorrow with the soldiers. Eat the same meal. Wearing the same clothes. Lead by example. How can his subordinates not die for him? Review your own group again. Usually only care about contacting the leaders of the party. Bow down to them and give them money. But it completely ignores the popular power at the bottom. Forgetting the most important thingββββββ it is the high leaders who are on high to the top. But in fact, it was the minions who were charging for their lives.
"Whoever wants the same wins". That's what I'm talking about.
Everyone thought about it without a few chopsticks, and finally waited until Zhao Bei finished eating. But I saw him put his big-brimmed hat up and put it on, and he touched a piece of linen from his pocket and wiped his mouth. stood up and just said "a few good eats" and swaggered away. At all, he did not raise the issue of military assistance to the Sichuan revolution.
I saw that the leaders of the party were drinking darkly. Huang Shuzhong and Xiong Kewu exchanged glances. The two hurriedly stood up and followed.
Kita heard someone behind him shouting "Commander-in-Chief". When I turned around, I saw that it was the two yellow bears. So he stopped. When they approached, he casually asked: That's right. Where has Mr. Sun, the leader of your meeting, gone now? Why haven't you returned yet? β
Shuzhong said: "Mr. Sun was in Nanyang a few days ago. The revolution was intended to return home immediately. But considering that the revolution left the funding institute, he embarked on a ship from the South Seas and went to Europe. I want to negotiate with the French and British bankers about the money and will not return to China for the time being. The actual work in the League was presided over by Mr. Song and Mr. Huang. No. The current revolutionary situation is developing rapidly. North-South peace talks are about to take place. Whether Sun Sheng will continue his original trip. We don't know. β
"I see. If the two of them meet with Mr. in the future. Say hello to me. Let's just say that I said the ground. "Revolution first". This praise - Mr. Sun deserves it. Zhao Bei nodded. Leave the next sentence. Turn around and go.
Shuzhong hurriedly caught up with a few behind and asked, "The commander-in-chief doesn't know when the commander-in-chief can send troops into Sichuan?" β
Zhao Bei stepped down. said very seriously: "The matter of sending troops to help Sichuan needs to be considered in the long run. At present, preparations are underway for the North-South peace talks. But no one knows whether to talk about it or not. If the room is cleared, it will not be returned. Then our army will definitely go on a big northern expedition. At that time, I am afraid that I will not be able to draw troops to help Sichuan. In fact, things in Sichuan are not complicated. It was a landlocked province. One man no man. As long as the situation in the country stabilizes. Sichuan can be taken without a fight. As for Zhao Erxun. Actually, I don't have any skills. It's just a Manchu relic. Don't be intimidated by his bluffing. Proof of history. The more rampant the diehards. The weaker his heart becomes. β
This is a false statement. Zhao Bei has long wanted to take Sichuan. But he doesn't want to take advantage of others. And it's true that they're not ready to attack at the moment. The more critical question is: I haven't seen any competitors yet. Both the Hunan Gongjin Association and the Henan Local Endeavor Association are still busy consolidating the areas under their control. For the time being, he is unable to stretch out his hand to Sichuan.
Don't fight uncertain battles. This is the principle of Zhao Beidi.
Huang Shuzhong caught up with another step. But he was separated by Tian Jinfu. I had to stop. said: "Since the Republican Army is now unable to draw troops to help Sichuan. Then he asked the commander-in-chief to allocate some guns to us. We do it ourselves. The Sichuan uprising failed. Just because there are not enough guns, not broadswords and spears. It's a cat cannon. On the other hand, the Qing army. It's all new weapons. β
Zhao Bei put his hands behind his back. Ponder it. "Now the IRA is expanding. Weapons and ammunition are also not abundant. I can't support you right away. No. If only you could wait a little longer here. I can find a way to support you with some rifles and bullets. Not much. Talk about the heart. Now you'd better get to work now. As soon as the weapon arrives. You can go back to Sichuan. It is recommended that you give priority to establishing a base in northern Sichuan. It's dangerous. And the people are fierce. That's right. A few days ago, several revolutionary comrades returned from Japan. Go to Wuhan to join the revolutionary army. Several of them are from the League. Stay at Hanyang Guest House now. You can talk to them. Reminiscence. By the way, take a look at the civilized drama. β
After speaking. Call Tian Jinfu to his side. said: "After a few guests finished eating. All of them are arranged to rest at the Hanyang Guest House. One should be needed. Lenient supply. β
In line with the principle of making the best use of things. Now the Hanyang County Ya has become a guest house for the military government. It is specially designed to entertain all kinds of people who come from all over the world to vote for the Republican Army.
In the tree and Xiong Kewu, the disciples called helplessly. But Zhao Bei's - nothing to move. They had no choice but to go back and counsel with the others.
The outcome of the deliberations. Huang Shuzhong and Xiong Kewu led the leaders of the party to stay and wait. Qin Rao Guoliang and others continued to advance eastward. Go to Fujian Ben Alliance to arm the "life to build **".
