Chapter 15: The Wind Rises
In 1911, Han Zheng re-entered his ordinary study life, and although his life was dull, it was full and fulfilling.
Because of the results of the last assessment, the surrounding classmates have changed some views on Han Zheng and these Orientals, at this time it is the world of the strong, and their own strength is the basis for winning the respect of others.
Even the German instructor Weiss has paid more attention to these oriental students, and Han Zheng and others have proved themselves with their own actions, while also winning the respect of others.
In fact, under the seemingly calm face, who could know that Han Zheng was in a dull and fulfilling study life at this time, suppressing the urgency in his heart, deliberately suppressing the waiting and anxiety - the great changes in China are not far away......
During this period of Han Zheng, he would always ask Guderian from time to time to help collect some news about the changes in the situation in China, and then analyze everything in it himself, because he knew that China's 1911 was a year of thunderbolts from the sky, and it was also the beginning of the great era......
On the other side of the Atlantic, Sun Yat-sen also looked at the direction of China with deep eyes, and then worked hard to prepare everything for the upcoming Great Revolution.
Sun Yat-sen, the word contains, the number Yixian. A native of Xiangshan, Guangdong (now Zhongshan City), he studied in Honolulu, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong when he was young, and practiced medicine in Macao, Guangzhou and other places, and established China's first revolutionary group, Xingzhonghui, in 14 years.
After that, Sun Yat-sen was forced to leave China in 16 years and stayed in London, England, where Sun Yat-sen took this opportunity to contact and study Western political and economic theories, and here he wanted to seek the truth of saving the country and trying to survive, laying a good foundation for Sun Yat-sen to put forward his own ideas in the future.
However, after a year of temporary residence in London, he returned to Asia via Canada in 17 years, and before the domestic situation was clear, he went straight to Japan, where he became acquainted with people from all walks of life in the Japanese government and the opposition, such as Miyazaki Inzo and Inukai Yi, and vigorously propagated the revolution among the overseas Chinese in Japan, and once again developed the Xingzhong Society.
In 1904, Sun Yat-sen wrote and published an article entitled "The True Solution of China's Problem" based on what he had learned over the years and in light of China's problems at that time, and his influence began to expand.
In August 1905, Sun Yat-sen led the establishment of the China League in Tokyo, Japan, and began to gather revolutionary forces and ideas, and was elected as the premier of the League, formulating a clear bourgeois revolutionary program of "expelling the Tartars, restoring China, establishing the Republic of China, and equalizing land rights"; He also presided over the founding of the "Minbao" and put forward the doctrine of "nationality, civil rights, and people's livelihood", and took the opportunity of the fierce debate with the reformists on the question of revolution and royalism, so that the revolutionary ideas could be further disseminated and the revolutionary situation was once again promoted.
At the same time, Sun Yat-sen also actively developed the League at home and abroad, contacted overseas Chinese, the Hui Party, and the New Army, and began to try to launch a series of armed uprisings against the Qing Dynasty in Liangguang, Yunnan, and other places.
In May 1911, Sun Yat-sen had taken the initiative to contact the American dignitary Knox, but was politely rejected by the other party, and later, Sun Yat-sen had to find another way, but they all ended in failure. He began to realize that the revolution could not rely too much on others.
Sun Yat-sen, who was devastated by the blow, had no choice but to start contacting overseas Chinese in the United States to raise revolutionary funds and recruit revolutionary talents.
Moreover, after more than half a year of hard work, Sun Yat-sen gradually gained a firm foothold in the Chinese community in the United States, gained great prestige in the Chinese community, vigorously propagated revolutionary ideas, and was welcomed by the local overseas Chinese.
And it was this success that made the United States the initial starting point of Sun Yat-sen's revolution and one of the constant driving forces for his continuous revolution.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
One day in September 1991, Sun Yat-sen and his entourage Huang Yunsu went to the Hongmen headquarters in San Francisco again, hoping to discuss some revolutionary matters with the main responsible persons of Hongmen again.
At the Hongmen headquarters, Situ Meitang, who was sitting on the stage at this time, was in the prime of life, his face looked a little dark, and he had a dignified and upright face, which made him particularly majestic.
Situ Meitang and these people know how difficult it is for them to live as overseas Chinese without the backing of a strong country, so when Situ Meitang first met Sun Yat-sen, he was moved by Sun Yat-sen's ambition to serve the country. Therefore, Situ Meitang took advantage of the fact that he was the current leader of the Hongmen to lead the entire Hongmen organization of overseas Chinese in the United States and gave full support to Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary activities in the United States, which can be said to have provided a lot of help to Sun Yat-sen's activities in the United States.
Sun Yat-sen was able to achieve such rapid development in the United States, and Situ Meitang can be said to have contributed a lot.
Hearing that the people below said that Mr. Sun Yat-sen was coming, Situ Meitang hurriedly arranged for others to greet him, tidied up his appearance, and then strode out himself.
“…… Haha, Mr. Sun didn't say anything in advance when he came, but also asked me to prepare well and arrange the reception in advance, now Mr. Sun doesn't say that I neglected the guests. ”
Just seeing each other, Situ Meitang smiled kindly at Sun Yat-sen, who was walking towards him: "I don't know if Mr. Sun is coming over this time, what else does he need guidance?" ”
"Mr. Situ is too polite, in fact, Sun has to rely more on Mr. Situ here, this time, I also want to thank Brother Situ for taking care of him these days, otherwise, Sun will be unable to move an inch in the United States and become a beggar living on the street...... How about some of the things we still talk about? ”
Sun Yat-sen knew Situ Meitang's temperament, but he didn't feel the slightest displeasure at the other party's words, but said jokingly to Situ Meitang.
"Okay, let's talk about something, Mr. Sun, Mr. Huang, please."
Situ Meitang welcomed Sun Yat-sen into the lobby of the house, and after letting the people below serve good tea, he let Tai not guard outside the lobby.
Both the guests and the host sat down, and when the tea was served, they slowly entered the main topic of this conversation.
"Mr. Sun came over this time, presumably there is some news from Brother Keqiang." Situ Meitang noticed that Sun Yat-sen's lips moved, as if there was something unspeakable, so he said directly to Sun Yat-sen. (Huang Xing, the word Keqiang, the founder of the Republic of China, together with Sun Yat-sen, is collectively known as Sun Huang by the outside world, and is now preparing for the revolution in China, so Situ Meitang has this question.) )
Sun Yat-sen nodded, and then sighed: "Well, but there is news, I contacted Brother Keqiang once a while ago, and he has contacted a large number of revolutionary colleagues and revolutionary parties in Japan and is ready to launch a great revolution in the recent period, trying to overthrow the rule of the Qing government in one fell swoop." Of course, we have also contacted a large number of revolutionary aspirants in the new army, and this time we are fully prepared, and when the time comes, great things will be accomplished! ”
Speaking of this, Sun Yat-sen's tone was already difficult to hide the excitement in his heart, for Sun Yat-sen in front of him, for China, for the revolution for so long, has been determined to save China by the revolution, seeing that the vigorous revolution is finally about to start again, how can I not be excited? !
Situ Meitang didn't interject, and it wasn't until Sun Yat-sen stabilized his mood that Sun Yat-sen continued a little miserably: "Since the failure of the Huanghuagang Uprising in April last time, after Keqiang sneaked to Hong Kong, he contacted some comrades of the Revolutionary League again, and continued to accumulate strength with some strong men who entered the new army. Now the time is ripe. This time it will happen in one fell swoop. ”
These words sound a little repetitive, but they also reflect Sun Yat-sen's current mood.
It's good not to mention the Huanghuagang Uprising, as soon as Situ Meitang heard Sun Yat-sen's talk about the Huanghuagang Uprising, he couldn't help but feel a little gloomy in his heart, those seventy-two martyrs are really excellent children of overseas Chinese, and even their own juniors, I didn't expect them to finally spill their blood on the land they love.
Seeing the gloom of the other party, Sun Yat-sen also realized that he had said something that he shouldn't have said, and glanced at the other party apologetically, but he also knew in his heart that there was nothing in the revolution that would not be sacrificed?
Seeing the apology in Sun Yat-sen's eyes, Situ Meitang quickly cleaned up his mood and said, "I don't know if there is anything I need help with this time?" I will do my best to do it, each of us is a descendant of China, and we are all willing to do our part to overthrow the Qing government together, and at the same time to avenge the dead compatriots and brothers and sisters, and force us to China, so that we can have a home for those wandering ghosts and ghosts outside. ”
When Sun Yat-sen heard the other party's words, he was a little grateful, but after all, he was still a little silent for a while, and then he said to him: "I understand Mr. Situ's intentions, and I also know that the vast number of overseas Chinese compatriots have really paid a lot for the revolutionary cause, and I will live up to you and sacrifice for the revolution It is only my colleagues who sacrificed for the revolution." Now Sun doesn't know when he will return to China, the revolution is about to break out, once I receive the news, I must go in person, and I can't sit still here. Before that, I hope that Mr. Situ can raise another amount of revolutionary funds for us and others, which will be of great use when I return to China. ”
"Okay, no problem."
Situ Meitang said, stretched out his hand and beckoned a heroic young man in his twenties beside him, and said to Sun Yat-sen: "This is my eldest son Situ Guo, who is always clamoring to return to China to see, and I agreed, I hope that Mr. Huitou can let him follow Mr. back to China to have a look, and I hope that Mr. Sun can take more care of my son on the way." As for the other personnel, there may not be too many of them returning to China with you this time, after all, there are still some old people in the door, since the sacrifice of the last group of young people, the old people will inevitably be a little worried when they are older, so they don't want them to return to China this time, and I hope that Mr. Sun will forgive and understand the old man's intentions, as for the funds, for the revolutionary cause, we will do our best to raise it. to support the development of the revolution in the country. ”
"Here's ...... Sun Wen is really grateful, and after returning to China, he will live up to expectations and create a new China. As for Ling Gongzi's affairs, please rest assured that he will definitely take care of him no matter what, so that he can come back safely. ”
Although Sun Yat-sen was already a little prepared and knew that he might not be able to bring more talents back this time, there was inevitably some disappointment in his tone, but with a large amount of revolutionary funds, the purpose of this visit could be regarded as achieved.
After saying this, Sun Yat-sen said goodbye to Situ Meitang and walked out, Situ Meitang wanted to leave him after dinner, but Sun Yat-sen was not willing to stay because of many things that needed to be sorted out.
"Yun Su, after we get this fund in a few days, we will go to Colorado to see if we can contact some comrades and raise some funds, and then we will return to China, we must also go back to make preparations at this time, I hope that this revolution can succeed and not let the blood of the people with lofty ideals be ......shed in vain."
Soon after walking out of Hongmen, Sun Yat-sen said to his entourage Huang Yunsu, Huang Yunsu answered, and the two began to go back to their place of residence together......
"Xiang Yun, I also agreed to your request this time, and I agreed to your return to China this time, but after returning to China, you have to take care of yourself, if possible, go to Huanghuagang on my behalf to pay tribute to those sacrificed children, just say I'm sorry for them, but let them rest assured that their families will be taken care of by me, and they will never let others bully them." Mr. Sun is a person who has returned to China to do great things, you have to follow him well, I don't know if the revolution will succeed this time, the country will be in turmoil in the past two years, the situation is chaotic, if there is any disharmony at that time, come back quickly. I'm just your son, at least, I don't have to rely on you to provide for me in my old age. ”
Situ Meitang said respectfully and respectfully to the eldest son who stood in front of him, but his temperament was always stubborn, and his voice was a little low.
Situ Guo stood respectfully in front of his father at this time, and when he heard his father's words, his heart couldn't help but be a little blocked, the corners of his eyes moistened slightly, and then he responded in a low voice, "Yes, my son wrote it down." ”
However, in his heart, he still thought, "If you really want to go back in embarrassment, how will you face your father, relatives, friends, brothers and friends?" I must make an example so that my father and brother will never be homeless and lonely like they are now. ”
"It's good to remember, hey, how difficult the country is, the nation is poor, and we wanderers are not having a good time. I'm going to talk to your grandfather and a few others about raising funds, so you can go down and get ready. After Situ Meitang finished speaking, he waved his hand at Situ Guo, with a sad look on his face, and walked out of the living room and walked towards the residence of several elderly people in the back hall.
Next, I have to persuade those old people more, this is really a headache
