Chapter 69: The East Road Comrade Army
When Yan Guang heard the gunshots coming from the patrol camp to suppress the civilians, he was sitting in his office with other henchmen discussing the situation.
And then...
"Are you telling the truth?" Listening to his subordinates' reports, Yan Guang's face was calm.
Although he was a little surprised by Yan Guang's expression, the subordinate quickly replied. "That's right, it's true, just now the soldiers of the patrol battalion in charge of guarding the governor's palace opened fire to suppress the people, although there is no exact number yet, but at least dozens of civilians have died, and countless people have been injured."
"That's rightβ" Yan Guang nodded. Then you go down first..."
"Yes!"
By the time the subordinate left the office, there was already a lot of noise in the office.
"That guy surnamed Zhang really dares to shoot!"
"What a bold dog!"
"Bastard !!"
Looking at the noisy subordinates, Yan Guang's expression was still very calm.
What just happened is known in history as the Chengdu Bloody Case, and he knows all this...
But although he knew, he couldn't stop it, because the Chengdu Bloody Incident was also a part of the Xinhai Revolution, and it was one of the most important links, if it was interrupted, I am afraid that the Wuchang Uprising would not happen as scheduled, let alone succeed, and the time of the Xinhai Revolution would be postponed for a year and become other revolutions...
So just like knowing that the stock boom will cause many people to commit suicide, although he knew that there would be a bloody case in Chengdu, he could only sit on the sidelines and watch, and then avoid negative emotions for himself, such as...
Feelings of self-blame and guilt...
"The so-called revolution has always been a road paved with blood, and many people will die from the time I choose this path, whether they are natives or foreigners..."
"Boss, what should we do now..."Song Dinghan was also surprised when he heard about the shooting.
"yes, boss, what are we going to do now?" The people below also said.
Although they thought about all aspects, they did not expect that Zhang Renjun really dared to shoot the protesters, so they couldn't figure it out.
"Wait."
"Wait?"
"That's right, wait a minute, when Chengdu City is empty, that's when we start."
"You mean?" Song Dinghan was thoughtful.
"That's right." Yan Guang nodded. "If this kind of thing happens, the Alliance and the Pao Brothers Association in Sichuan will definitely not endure it, so we just need to wait for Zhang Renjun to mobilize the forces in Chengdu."
"Patrol battalion? The new army? Hong Ming asked.
"The new army, the combat effectiveness of the patrol battalion is not worth mentioning, and the new army is the biggest problem." In Yan Guang's memory, the Sichuan New Army was different from the new armies of other southern provinces, all of which were the main forces of the uprising, but the 17th town of the Sichuan New Army was...
The main force to suppress the uprising ...
Yan Guang has 1,000 men, equivalent to the strength of two battalions, and each soldier has undergone rigorous training, and many of them are not far behind the officers of the Armed Forces Academy and the Crash School. And in addition to the 1888 Commission rifles, which the new army did not have much, Yan Guang also equipped them with 100 Madsen machine guns, 100 pistols and more than ten grenades for each person.
With such weapons and long-term rigorous training, Yan Guang believes that no one will be the opponent of his private army under the same number, but...
There is a new army in a town in Sichuan, which is equivalent to more than 10,000 people, plus various patrol battalions, although Yan Guang is very confident in his private army, but he is not confident enough to the point of 1,000 against tens of thousands.
Therefore, the best way is to wait until Zhang Renjun takes the initiative to transfer the new army out of Chengdu, if there is only a patrol battalion left in Chengdu, with the strength of his own private army and surprise, everything will be easy to do...
After listening to Yan Guang's explanation, several of his henchmen nodded.
"Okay, everyone's job next is to add fuel to the fire of the team members below, but be careful, don't add too much to cause an explosion in advance..."
Song Dinghan, Hong Ming and the others looked at each other. "Understood."
"And Wang Er, you and Yang Shan and they will take people to the underground shooting training ground, so that the team members below can familiarize themselves with the equipment..."Yan Guang smiled as he spoke. I don't want them to go into battle and still not understand what to do with machine guns and grenades. β
"Don't worry." Wang Er and Yang Shan also nodded.
When everyone left the office, Yan Guang opened the curtains and looked outside, which was already in chaos.
"Next, it's up to Qin Zaigeng and Long Mingjian to do it, I hope they won't let me down..."

After learning the news of the Chengdu bloody case, Qin Zaigeng, who was recruiting troops and horses, was furious, and then led more than 1,000 people who had been recruited to Chengdu under the banner of "East Road Comrade Army Qin".
However, because of the Chengdu Bloody Incident, Chengdu is now heavily guarded, and Qin Zaigeng's more than 1,000 men and horses are just some poorly equipped and untrained rabble, so they were quickly defeated under the attack of the patrol battalion and the new army.
"Brother Qin, no, those Tartar lackeys are too powerful, we can't capture Chengdu at all!" After retreating from Chengdu, one of Qin Zaigung's brothers wiped the rain drain from his face.
Qin Zaigeng's face was also quite gloomy.
At this time, it was already pouring rain, and Qin Zaigeng's more than 1,000 brothers had died a lot, but there was no way to capture Chengdu.
It's no wonder that with only more than 1,000 people, how could it be possible to attack Chengdu, it can only be said that Qin Zaigeng is indeed a little whimsical...
Fortunately, at this time, there were revolutionary parties or Hui parties in the surrounding counties of Chengdu to lead people to arrive, and after two or three days, Qin Zaigeng's East Road Comrade Army became more than 10,000 people...
In mid-September, Qin Zaigeng led more than 10,000 comrades on the East Road to Renshou Jitian, which was more than 70 kilometers away from Chengdu, to rest, and at this time more than 10,000 people led by Long Mingjian and Wang Tianjie of Rongxian County did not conquer Chengdu, and finally had to retreat.
The two Route Comrade Army then joined forces, established the headquarters of the East Route Comrade Army in Jitian, and elected Qin Zaigeng as the commander and Wang Tianjie as the deputy commander. The number of comrades of the two routes has reached more than 20,000 people, and after a period of rectification, Qin Zaigeng once again led the East Route Comrade Army into Chengdu, and finally fought with the Qing army in the suburbs of the city in the red pailou (Wuhou District) and Xipu...
At the same time that Qin Zaigeng's comrade army and the Qing army were fighting, the counties of Sichuan, especially the neighboring counties of Chengdu, revolted one after another, especially on September 25, Wu Yuzhang and Wang Tianjie of the League led the Rong County Reading Power and established the first revolutionary regime in the Xinhai period...
It's a pity that although the momentum of the revolution is very strong, the untrained Hui Party is only a rabble after all, so in the end, Qin Zaigeng's East Route Comrade Army finally had to retreat from Chengdu and go to southern Sichuan to conquer other states and counties.
