Chapter 31 Anqing Wind and Rain 2
In the evening, while the city gate was not closed, Hu Rui and his entourage rushed back to Wuhu overnight for a hasty shakuhachi dinner. As he walked, the attentive attaché noticed that the chief instructor's two legs were shaking like a compass. Thinking of the afternoon of going into the boudoir, everyone has a vague smile in understanding. The clever one hurriedly went up to support the chief instructor, a man can do anything, but he can't say no! This hasn't gone back yet, it's all the people of the Swallow Gang outside, and our new army can't be underestimated.
Hu Rui was just supported by Leng Jingfeng and the others who accompanied him with his arms, directly ignoring the obscene and ambiguous smiles on the faces of the animals, he was excited! Sanniang's words have always echoed in his ears.
"The Manchus had no way, and the people suffered greatly. Adults do not hesitate to endure humiliation for the righteousness of the world, and Sanniang admires it very much. There were many slackness and temptations before, and the offense was still expected to be Daren Haihan. In the future, the Swallow Gang will dare to be the fine willow camp under the command of adults, and there will be no difference between birth and death! The people's livelihood is difficult, and the turmoil has been heavy for many years, I hope that the adults can give the people of the world a way to live. ”
There has never been a shortage of bandits around Hu Rui, especially old bandits like Wang Tianda. After getting along for a long time, I still know a little bit about the set on the rivers and lakes. Sanniang is in a showdown, both Yan Sanniang and her Swallow Gang were watching before, and the information provided was always vague. As the commander of the first army, Hu Rui can understand Sanniang's approach. Today's remarks can be regarded as a complete confirmation of the name of the Intelligence Department of the New Army! Parallel history, the Liliang gang in the last years of the Qing Dynasty until the establishment of New China was very clear about how powerful the gang was in China. Didn't Kaishen Gong also want to worship under Huang Jinrong's door back then? After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, after the invading Japanese army occupied Shanghai, they also had to support gangs such as the Qinggang Shili. The big traitor Li Shiqun's No. 76 also has a lot of contacts in action and intelligence and the gang shili (interested readers can check Wu Sibao, this person is a green gang boss, an official in the Japanese puppet system, and is very famous in Zhejiang. )。 No one is more suitable for intelligence. What's more, there is also a famous swallow thief, no matter how Hu Rui looks at it, he has earned it! A promise in exchange for a desperate intelligence organization, make a fortune!
Thinking of this, someone cracked his mouth and smiled stupidly.
When he was in school, Hu Rui's history was not bad, and he remembered the timing of several major events in the Xinhai Revolution very clearly. Zhu Jiabao, who was sitting in Anqing, was greatly excited after learning the news that the bandits had subsided. At present, civil unrest and bandits are constantly occurring in all parts of the country, and the Qing army and patrol battalions are overwhelmed in various places, and Anhui Province under Zhu Jiabao's rule is indeed very good. This was an excellent political achievement, and as for the Hefei patrol battalion, which was almost completely wiped out, it automatically ignored it, and Zhu Jiabao gave a few strokes to the imperial court with "managing the light enemy's rash advance". The Manchu government was also anxious, and it was a headache for the bad news that snowflakes were flying, and it was hard to have an unpack, so it naturally attached great importance to it. With the mentality of rushing to be happy, I don't want money to praise me anyway, I give it hard, and I praised Zhu Jiabao as a loyal minister and virtuous man who has never been seen before or since. With the award, Zhu Jiabao was more motivated under the satisfaction, and the Anhui New Army supported by one hand was the biggest capital in his hands, and immediately ordered the 34th New Army to form the co-ordinator Hu Rui, who fought bravely and performed actively, and went to Anqing today, and he wanted to personally commend him! A godsend! After getting the letter, Hu Rui immediately began to arrange, the original guard company has been quietly expanded, Hu Rui selected the elite, and set the day of travel on October 8. The selected elites each had a Stern submachine gun, a Mauser pistol, six wooden-handled grenades, a dagger, a steel helmet and big scalp boots. As for the twelve patrol battalions on the Anqing side, Hu Rui planned to wait until he was notified later, and there were many people for fear of leaking a little rumor. Looking at the people who were gearing up and going to prepare separately, Hu Rui looked at the cloudy sky and muttered to himself:
"It's time for a change!"
On October 9, Hu Rui and his entourage went ashore in Anqing, and Zhu Jiabao personally led a group of officials from Anqing to the wharf to greet them. Subsequently, Hu Rui accompanied Zhu Jiabao to the governor's subordinates to report on the work and the details of the suppression of bandits. At noon, Zhu Jiabao set up a banquet in the Moon Pavilion, during the banquet, Hu Rui coped with it freely, and the guests and hosts talked about the wine, which was very lively. That night, Hu Rui stayed at Mochizuki Pavilion. On the same day, at the arsenal in the mountains of Wuhu, the backbone of heavy artillery who returned from studying in Germany began to assemble 105 and 150 heavy guns and debug them.
On the 10th, Hu Rui used the excuse of rewarding the sergeants to hold a banquet in the Mochizuki Pavilion and feasted all the officers from the training battalion in the Anqing Patrol Battalion. The feast lasted until the evening, and everyone walked out of the Mochizuki Pavilion with their feet shaking, their faces flushed with excitement.
At 7 o'clock in the evening of October 10, 1911, Tao Qisheng, the platoon commander of the second platoon of the rear team of the eighth battalion of the eighth town project of the Hubei New Army, brought two gun training battalions. When he inspected the fifth shed (squad), he saw that Jin Zhaolong, the head of the shed (squad leader and non-commissioned officer), was lying on the bed in a neatly armed manner, wiping his gun, and when he noticed that something was wrong, he immediately asked sharply:
"Why are you wiping your gun now?"
Jin Zhaolong didn't care, just said coldly:
"Just in case!"
Tao Qisheng immediately changed color when he heard this, and immediately shouted angrily:
"You want to rebel? Tie me up! ”
Immediately, the two spearmen behind him quickly stepped forward and twisted Jin Zhaolong, ready to capture. At this moment, Jin Zhaolong shouted:
"When will the comrades stay if they don't do it?!"
Cheng Zhengying, a soldier beside him, immediately raised his "Made in Hanyang" rifle and fired a shot at Tao Qisheng, hitting him in the abdomen, and then fled and died at home due to his injuries. The sound of gunfire echoed in the silent night sky, and the first and third platoons on the first floor immediately became excited, shouting "uprising", and then, under the leadership of Xiong Binghui, the general representative of the Communist Party, they killed and dispersed the officers who came to suppress the bullets, and then distributed the bullets in the battalion and rushed towards the Chuwangtai armory.
A decisive shot in modern Chinese history was fired, sounding the death knell of the Manchu Dynasty! The long-pent-up anger of the Chinese people gushed out like a volcanic eruption, and a great change that changed the world officially began!
At the same time, Hu Rui, who was far away in Anqing, was clutching the watch in his hand, and his bones were a little white. As a client who has personally experienced this historical upheaval, Hu Rui can't help but be excited. History has changed a little because of his little butterfly, and he has deviated from the previous track, and I don't know if this shot of great significance in parallel history can be fired on time. He has been preparing for this day for four years, and everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. It would be impossible for him not to be nervous. In the underground secret room of Mochizuki Pavilion, the newly installed electric lights are hung on the ceiling, and soft lights fill the basement of more than 200 square meters. Usually, this is the leisure time after dinner. But today, the young men who used to break their wrists, gamble on dice, chat, and listen to the drama were all closed, and gathered in the secret room with dark excitement, carefully serving the pile of parts in their hands.
"Eh, brother, do you think our two masters can succeed this time?"
Carefully put on the bolt of the gun, and after holding the gun and adjusting the crosshair against the light, the big man stabbed him with his elbow uneasily, and asked Wang Tianda, who was lying on the side with a straw in his mouth.
"What a second master, it's the chief instructor!"
Wang Tianda, who was squinting his eyes and humming a small song, corrected angrily.
"Your uncle, Lao Tzu is not from your teaching camp!"
"What's the matter, this has become a family, the military uniforms have been issued, and they are about to die, are you cowardly?"
"Fart, net bullshit! You go and ask the brothers, I've been a big guy when I was scared! If you have to get it, you can't say it, so it's handsome? That's okay, right?! Brother, do you think Dashuai can succeed this time? ”
Listening to the conversation between the two, several people around immediately stopped what they were doing and quietly gathered around. They are very concerned about this topic, after all, it is a matter of life, and the revolutionary party in the south has not lost many dead people in recent years.
Glancing at the crowd gathered around, and then looking at the big man with a serious face, Wang Tianda helplessly spit out the grass stalks and straightened up, dug out his ears, and said lazily;
'Let me tell you the truth, since the 29th year of Guangxu (1908), when the chief instructor returned from abroad, he has been preparing for this day. Hmph, three whole years! In the past few years, you can also see the situation in Anqing, Wuhu, and the five counties around Wuhu, and our new army has more than 5,000 good brothers in the 34th Mixed Association alone, plus the 26 patrol battalions in the hands of the chief instructor, hehe, 20,000 people! Do you know the Jiulian Mountain bandits who made a fuss a while ago? That is, our brothers were ordered to recruit troops, and this time there were already more than 23,000 people. Let's talk about the submachine gun in the hands of our brothers, as far as our Anhui New Army is concerned, even foreign devils don't have this kind of 70-shot submachine gun! At close range, this thing is a good match for a stun gun! Let me tell you secretly, the arms we have hoarded in the arsenal in the Wuhu Mountains in the past three years are not counted as anything else, there are 60,000 Mauser 98 rifles alone, and 150,000 in Hanyang! Hehe, don't compare the poor ghosts in the south with our chief instructor! These people are just a group of brainless people, prostitutes, smoking, and infighting, and some of them have the ability, hum, when it comes to fighting, to hell with it! ‘
After saying that, I changed a comfortable position and continued to lie down, and tonight I will definitely be able to make it impossible to fall asleep, and it is also haode to close my eyes and recuperate. There's big things to do tomorrow. Wang Tianda's gang is the descendant of the first phase of the confession, a typical die-hard faction, and in their eyes, the chief instructor Hu Rui has always been a god-like existence. Compare it with the group of mouth-beating cannons in the south, it's strange if you're not angry!
"Well, this, this, this...... I didn't know about it......"
The big guy couldn't help but sigh. Before the words fell, a group of echoes were immediately heard
"yes......"
"It's deep enough......"
"Idiot, let you know that it's okay, Tartar is not a lackey!"
Wang Tianda turned around and added a lukewarm sentence. Everyone present scratched their heads and smiled embarrassedly. The big man excitedly raised his fan-like slap and slapped Wang Tianda's buttocks, and continued to ask about the treatment after being incorporated into the new army......
On October 11th, the Swallow Gang all set out, quietly reconnoitring the terrain of Anqing again, and then confirmed the previously selected target on the map.
Early in the morning of the 12th, the first brother attaché of the governor's subordinate trotted all the way to the Mochizuki Pavilion to report that the Lord of Futai had invited Lord Hu, the assistant commander of the New Army, to discuss important matters. Hu Rui, who hadn't rested much all night, heard the news, his eyes flashed, and he spat out:
"It's finally here!"
He immediately ordered the attaché to take the silver and give a reward, saying that he would come after washing up and changing his clothes.
"What's the matter, is it a leak?!"
Sanniang in the boudoir upstairs heard that the governor was coming, and immediately performed light skills and rushed over all the way.
"Shhh This meeting Wuchang City should already be in hand, and the news should also reach Anqing Zhu Jiabao is looking for me to have a meeting to find countermeasures. Sanniang, come and see. ”
He made a booing gesture and greeted.
"Sanniang, you see that this is the house and property of all the banner dignitaries and diehard officials in Anqing that the brothers have repeatedly investigated and confirmed before, and this is the location of the telegraph office, the official treasury and other important places. After a while, I went to a meeting with the guards and brothers, and persuaded Zhu Jiabao to get all the officials in the city together for a meeting to seek countermeasures. As soon as the Governor's guns go off, you'll be in action! The twelve patrol battalions in Anqing are all ours, and they have been notified before. After you succeed, you are responsible for closing the city gates with the patrol battalion, searching for the remnants of the enemy, resisting and taking the opportunity to make trouble, and get rid of them all! ”
Hu Rui spread out the map and introduced.
Sanniang understood, so she went to greet her brother. You, you...... Take care! ”
Sanniang pulled over the map, hesitated for a moment, threw a sentence, and floated. Sure enough, it was a swallow thief, who came and went without a trace.
"Xiaolian, the big thing is not good, the chaotic party has rioted in Wuchang, and the eighth town has rebelled, this time it can't be resisted, Wuchang City has been lost!"
Coming to the governor's family with the guard company, Zhu Jiabao was immediately shocked when he saw Hu Rui. It can be seen that he is extremely dependent on this new army commander who he has single-handedly supported, and he is the new one, and the first person he found after the incident was Hu Rui.
"My lord, the soldiers are very fast, and without further ado, the only way to do this is to immediately block the news, and gather the officials of the various states and counties before announcing the news, so as to prevent unnecessary panic caused by the leakage. Then we will discuss the countermeasures of the brothers. ”
Taking a deep breath and holding back the excitement and nervousness in his heart, Hu Rui's handsome and resolute face was full of "worried" looks, and Chen Xian's analysis suggested.
"Yes, yes, yes...... You're right! It was the negligence of the main station...... Xiaolian, the guard company you brought is responsible for the safety of the subordinates, and the government has notified officials from all walks of life in Anqing to come to the meeting immediately! You make another trip to the patrol camp and order the gates to be sealed immediately! It is forbidden to enter and exit, and those who violate the order are killed! ”
Zhu Jiabao is worthy of the ups and downs of the old rivers and lakes in the Huan Sea, and quickly came back to his senses and ordered viciously.
Hu Rui, who led the order, immediately went out of the governor's subordinates, except for a pistol pair that followed him, the rest of the guard company quickly took over the protection of the governor's subordinates, all the machine guns were set up on the commanding heights, and the snipers also chose a favorable firing position. When passing by the Moon Pavilion, Hu Rui quietly glanced at the guy waiting at the door, and the guy immediately understood, and Sanniang and the Swallow Gang quietly began to act. At the same time that the Anqing patrol battalion blocked the city gate, a telegram was also sent to Wuhu from the radio station set up in the Moon Pavilion. The content is only one sentence from Duan Nuan:
"Daystar is about to rise!"
