Chapter 66: The Surabaya Case (Part II)

Chapter 66: The Surabaya Case (Part II)

History is like that, and many things are hard to reverse!

Even though the extremely weak China has overthrown the Manchu Qing Dynasty and is preparing to establish a republican Republic, the contempt of the local state has not changed. It can be said that the Chinese people at this moment are like a powder keg, and anger can be ignited at any time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, all the members of the Political Affairs Committee of the United Autonomous Region, General Fang Jianxiong, Commander-in-Chief of the National Defense Forces, have made a joint call to me to inform the world. Shocked to hear of the case of overseas Chinese being bullied in the Dutch Surabaya port, all the people of the autonomous region and the national defense forces were like swords and axes from their families, and they were heartbroken and filled with righteous indignation. The vast number of overseas Chinese compatriots, your pain is the pain of my 40,000,000 people, and your anger is the anger of my 40,000,000 people. The Autonomous Region and the National Defense Forces have a common aspiration to demand that the Provisional Government make the strongest possible statement! 2. Within three days of the time limit, all Dutch nationals and ships within the jurisdiction of the autonomous region shall leave, and the shops to which they belong shall be forcibly closed. 3. Within a three-day deadline, if the Dutch Government is unable to make a satisfactory decision on the case to the overseas Chinese in our Dutch territory, the Wehrmacht will set up a contingent of the Maritime Route Army to send troops to Surabaya to defend the rights of the overseas Chinese who have passed through our country. Fourth, General Fang Jianxiong, commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces, will leave for Nanjing tonight to meet with President Sun, the interim deputy, to discuss the final plan for settling the case. ”

Wang Zhengting had read the telegram before, and he was already trembling with excitement, and finally eased up, but when he faced the telegram conveyed by the media, he still couldn't hold back his trembling with excitement again, and his snot and tears fell uncontrollably. When the whole world announces such news, for a Chinese. It's so hard to imagine how it feels!

A thin telegram, but it weighed a thousand catties, and it was almost exhausted to the last of his strength, and Wang Zhengting read the telegram. Hands propped up on the table, crying bitterly!

Not to mention Wang Zhengting's trembling lips when he read it, the domestic newspaper reporters in the various media in the audience heard such a declaration. They were all trembling with excitement. Now there was a slight commotion, and if it weren't for the fear of interrupting Wang Zhengting's telegram, the reporters would have been strongly restrained. The scene has long been blown up.

The scene did not explode immediately, and many reporters were tearfully recording the last word. Finally, a terrible wail sounded at the scene. The president of the market and the captain of the squad sat on the ground, beat his chest and feet, and cried and said: "I am a great country in China, with a civilization of 5,000 years, and now the Republic of China is about to begin, and the whole country is celebrating, I have suffered this humiliation. My generation, I hate not to be born in the Han and Tang Dynasties. I can't cross the sea with hatred. At this point, all the reporters in China cried one after another, and the excited beat their chests and burst into tears. The sane man bowed his head in tears, sad.

"Commander Fang, on behalf of only individuals and all members of the newspaper, I have kowtowed to you! For those wanderers who are wandering overseas, please give out the evil spirit of this hundred years of siltation. ”

Shouting, the squad leader turned his head to the northwest. Three knock knocks! grabbed the place with his head, and the blood did not stop, as if he had exhausted all his strength. This move immediately attracted countless reporters to follow suit, kneeling solemnly and kowtowing from afar.

Lose your marbles! Lose your marbles! The whole poster world is crazy!

On this day, everyone remembered it. March 26, 1911. Newspapers throughout Shanghai were running supplements reporting the same thing. With the exception of foreign-language newspapers, all Chinese newspapers were unusually consistent, and their reports were in support of the telegram issued by the United Autonomous Regional Government and the National Defense Forces.

The name of the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmacht, Fang Jianxiong, once again made headlines in national newspapers.

"This is the first Chinese local government and military since the reign of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty to dare to issue a threat of force against Western countries, and their leader is named Fang Jianxiong. History will remember the name! "The newspaper, which has always been neutral, is commented on in the headlines!

Not to mention other newspapers, which published even more vehemently commentary. After a good show was staged at the press conference, the president of the squad once again personally handled the work and commented on the headlines: From now on, overseas Chinese have the backbone, and from now on, the national defense force can be called the backbone of the nation!

In the eyes of some people on the opposite side, these remarks can be described as extremely flattering, but no one dares to voice opposition after this. At most, like some northern newspapers, let's say: whether to take advantage of the situation to invite people to buy people's hearts, or whether they really have this intention, wait and see!

The overwhelming positive reports overwhelmed the two provisional governments of the north and south. No one expected that Fang Dashuai would be so sharp, Beiyang didn't expect Fang Jianxiong to go crazy again. Nanjing didn't expect that Fang Jianxiong would come to Nanjing to discuss measures to deal with it together.

At a time when the north and the south were struggling to cope with the huge media momentum, on the afternoon of the 28th, Fang Jianxiong arrived at the Xiaguan Wharf in Nanjing aboard the naval warship "Hairong."

The Nanjing Provisional Government organized a welcoming ceremony, but things were still unexpected by some. Originally, it was expected that there would be a very good scene of 10,000 or 20,000 people, but after the news came out, the streets of Nanjing City were empty, and the Xiaguan Wharf was full of people. 100,000 Nanjing people spontaneously went to the wharf to greet them, and 200,000 Nanjing people spontaneously took to the streets to wait for the arrival of Commander Fang along the way.

Students from various schools in Nanjing, the All-China Women's Federation, the National Red Cross, and other organizations gathered at Xiaguan Wharf, pulled up banners, and warmly welcomed Commander Fang's return to Nanjing. On this day, it was difficult to buy materials such as red cloth, red paper, and colored paper in Nanjing. Many shops heard that the students were directly charged a cost price in order to welcome Fang Dashuai, and some of them had their brains temporarily damaged by the door, so they actually confiscated the money on impulse.

All in all, the citizens of Nanjing were like crazy, and when they heard that Fang Dashuai came to Nanjing, they were all set on fire.

The common people don't have so many ideas in their heads, and whoever is good to him, he will be good to whom. When the Anhui army was in Nanjing, it was called a story about not taking a stitch from the people, in order not to disturb the people, sleeping on the streets at night, and it is still recited among the people.

Now that Commander Fang has come to Nanjing again, the people of Nanjing, who have been miserably harmed by the people's army from all over the country, are like finding an outlet for their love, and they will explode in an instant. In their hearts, the vast majority of the people probably hoped that Commander Fang's national defense army would return to Nanjing, and those chaotic people's troops from all over the country would get out of Nanjing.

The "Hairong" docked slowly, standing on the edge of the dock and watching the scene of the crowd, Sun Yat-sen's face was complicated. When he first came to Nanjing, the scene seemed to be worse than this, but it was not much worse. The Chinese people always hope that Tongguò will change the dynasty and change the person in charge to change their fate. They don't have high requirements, they just need to be well fed and warm.

However, a few months later, the disappointment of the people of Nanjing with the provisional government probably accumulated to a critical point. After the people's troops from all over the country came to Nanjing, tens of thousands of people had no pay or food, and it became inevitable to harass the localities. The light ones eat and drink for nothing, and the heavy ones kill and rob money. Some officials even lived directly in the Qinglou and did not leave, eating and prostituting for nothing, and the people of Nanjing could be said to dare to be angry but did not dare to speak.

This situation did not change until the money was borrowed. However, the talkative newspaper still poked the matter out and made it up privately, saying that Commander Fang couldn't see the suffering of the people of Nanjing, so he took the lead to borrow money. Anyway, the newspaper is talking nonsense, not once or twice.

The battleship finally docked, and before Sun Yat-sen stepped forward, he saw that everyone on the left and right was pale, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. Fang Fuguo is only in his early twenties, but he went to Nanjing alone, why are these people scared like this? In fact, Sun Xiang is crooked, these people around him just see the hearts of the people. Lacking military strictness and lack of popular support, how can the organization of the League compete with the other two parties at home? How can he be the leader of domestic politics?

"Hey!" Soong Chiao-jen, who is a staunch advocate of the cabinet system, has recently been actively planning to establish the Kuomintang (KMT) and win the cabinet election. Seeing this scene today, I can't help but feel anxious. Sigh!

The dock was busy, Sun Yat-sen turned his head and asked, "Fisherman, why are you sighing?" Song Jiaoren said bitterly: "When I went to Hankou and interviewed Fang, he once said that in the future Republic of China, if Yuan is the president, Yixian will use the cabinet system to balance it. The sound is still in the ear, the sound is still in the ear! In fact, this is not the case in the whole text, Song Jiaoren just said selectively.

When Sun Yat-sen heard this, his face couldn't help but change slightly, and then he returned to normal, smiled, and walked forward. Xindao, I want to see how you Fang Fuguo faces me, the acting interim president.

Fang Jianxiong's tall body appeared on the deck, and his tall figure was easy to spot. Sun Zhi's smile was well maintained, but it changed color in an instant, and it was difficult to recover calmly. The reason is simple, there was a sudden shout of cheers like a landslide and tsunami on the dock!

"Long live the Wehrmacht!" "Welcome Commander Fang to Nanjing!" I don't know which bastard was the first to shout these two voices, and suddenly no other sound was heard in the whole dock. The people of Nanjing seemed to be crazy, and desperately opened their throats and shouted these two sentences.

After Fang Jianxiong on the battleship heard the cheers, his first reaction was to stiffen. In the face of the scene of 100,000 people cheering like this, my heart shook and I couldn't help but be excited. After taking a deep breath, Fang Jianxiong stepped forward. When he got on the pedal, he snapped and saluted one hundred and eighty degrees.

Amidst the cheers, Fang Jianxiong finally walked in front of Sun Yat-sen, and now he unexpectedly quieted down automatically.

"Fang Jianxiong, Commander-in-Chief of the National Defense Forces, has met the interim president! Salute! Fang Jianxiong did not hesitate to stand up and raise his hand in salute. Speak up!

The sound is loud, and it should be heard within fifty meters of the scene. Probably no one thought that Fang Jianxiong would appear in front of Sun Yat-sen in this way. And called the interim president!

At this moment, looking at the heroic Fang Jianxiong, Sun's heart was like a hot current that ran through his body, and he actually felt an irrepressible excitement.

"Fuguo, it's been hard all the way!" Lips trembled slightly, and the curtain was prayed for (to be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the www.biquge.info of Qidian to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
