Once the backup plan is deployed, there are two outcomes –

The first is that the union deals with the chamber of commerce, and if the chamber of commerce does not handle it properly, there will be a direct conflict with the union, and after the conflict, the police will intervene. Of course, the intervention of the police may not help, after all, the number of trade unions is dozens of times the number of police, and then, Fu Guodong will send troops to intervene, once the warlords send troops to intervene, the Fenghua New Army outside the city will have a reason to intervene on the grounds of protecting the trade union, and when the two sides are in a hurry, the revolutionary army will directly enter the city, clean up the mess, and solve Fu Guodong and Chen Bozhong at the same time.

Second, Fu Guodong is still standing still, so Chen Bozhong is still involved, but Chen Bozhong received an order that both the chamber of commerce and the trade union must be eradicated. A brainless person like Chen Bozhong, of course, will directly carry out the order, and the revolutionary army will hope that Fu Guodong will intervene on the grounds that the whip is beyond the reach of the whip, and when Fu Guodong sends troops to encircle and suppress Chen Bozhong, the revolutionary army will have an excellent excuse.

After listening to this, An Wanghai said: "In other words, no matter what, the revolutionary army will not let go of Fu Guodong and Chen Bozhong." ”

Guan Mochen said lightly: "And me and the trade union, no matter what, we all have to die, and the only ones who will survive are the Yongcheng Chamber of Commerce and the group of foreigners in the concession." ”

An Wanghai sneered: "This is the so-called revolution? ”

Guan Mochen shook his head: "Some people's revolutions are wearing masks, and when the time is right, they will take off the masks and solve them directly with guns." ”

An Wanghai was puzzled: "Since you know, why do you still want to come?" ”

Guan Mochen picked up another apple: "I said, for the sake of my ideals, some things must be done by someone, even if it is an adventure, even if I know that there is only a glimmer of life, I will still do it." ”

An Wanghai looked at Guan Mochen and said, "Neurotic! ”

Guan Mochen smiled: "Yes, I am a neurotic, but today's China lacks a neuropathy like me, I always believe that the power of the people is the strongest, no matter what comes from the people, as long as the people support me, then I will be invincible." ”

An Wanghai struggled to get up: "Guan Mochen, but you must know that now is not the time, the strength of you idealists is not big enough, it still takes time, you need to wait for the time to come." ”

Guan Mochen said: "You and I have one thing in common, that is, we look at life and death very lightly, other than that, we have no similarities, I know, you want to save me, but I need not rescue, but help." ”

An Wanghai just shook his head slightly and didn't say a word.

Guan Mochen got up and grabbed his coat: "I still have something to go back to the Governor's Mansion, you take care of your injuries, and we'll talk when your injuries heal." ”

When Guan Mochen walked to the door, An Wanghai couldn't help but ask, "How do you want me to help you?" ”

Guan Mochen just smiled: "I haven't thought about it yet, but now that you can recuperate with peace of mind, you have helped the most." ”

An Wanghai called Guan Mochen again: "Who is the person who shot me, have you found it?" ”

Guan Mochen stopped and closed the door again: "The person who shot you has been found, but he has been extinguished, based on the current situation, there are only two people who only want to hurt you, but are not willing to hurt your life, one is Fu Guodong, the other is Jiang Boqi, who is specific, you think for yourself." ”

After speaking, Guan Mochen closed the door and left.

Fu Guodong and Jiang Boqi, indeed, there is no third person except them, who will it be?

injured me, obviously worried that I would help Guan Mochen, and warned me not to meddle in these matters. According to this speculation, it is possible for these two people, compared to Jiang Boqi, Fu Guodong is more scheming.

All I can do right now is to do everything I can to avoid bloodshed.

An Wanghai thought so, and slowly closed his eyes, he knew that he really needed enough rest.

●

At night, a banquet was set up in the Eight Kings Courtyard again, but this time there were no women at the banquet, only wine and food, because Leng Rui was not interested in women at all.

At the table, there were a total of three people sitting - Jiang Boqi, Rong Pingye and Leng Rui.

Rong Pingye sat in the middle of the two, which was equivalent to correcting his identity as an intermediary.

Jiang Boqi personally poured wine for Leng Rui, and Leng Rui also got up politely, holding the cup in both hands, and both of them gave each other enough faces.

After Jiang Boqi drank his toast, he asked bluntly: "May I ask why Commissioner Leng came to Yongcheng this time?" ”

Leng Rui said: "I came to avoid a senseless war. ”

Jiang Boqi said with a smile: "I'm just a businessman, fighting a war has nothing to do with me, if you want to avoid war, the commissioner should go to Fu Dashuai." ”

Leng Rui put down his wine glass: "Where did his military salary come from?" ”

This was a pun, and Jiang Boqi couldn't help but look at Rong Pingye.

Rong Pingye understood, and immediately said: "Brother Leng, don't you know, soon after the start of the Northern Expedition of the Revolutionary Army, the Chamber of Commerce resisted taxes and stopped paying, and the revolutionary army's good news came again and again, Fu Guodong didn't dare to make any more moves, if he wanted to move the Chamber of Commerce, wouldn't it be tantamount to doing right with the revolutionary army?" ”

The meaning of Rong Pingye's words was very vague, explaining to Leng Rui that the Chamber of Commerce absolutely supported the revolutionary army, not the reactionary warlords.

Leng Rui smiled, raised his glass and said, "Yes, the wine in Yongcheng is indeed good, come, let's have another drink." ”

After drinking the second glass of wine, Leng Rui asked before he put down the glass: "I heard that there has been friction between the Chamber of Commerce and the trade union recently, what is going on?" ”

Jiang Boqi immediately said: "Because of some misunderstandings." ”

Leng Rui nodded: "Yes, misunderstanding, there is indeed a misunderstanding, it is strange to say, no matter when, as long as there is a war, it is the rich who pay and the poor who serve as soldiers, but the poor are always more than the rich, once a certain balance in the middle disappears, then it is the rich who suffer." ”

Jiang Boqi didn't understand what Leng Rui meant, so he had to nod silently.

Leng Rui said: "This situation, we actually don't want to change, after all, the whole country has not been unified, but some things, some slogans have been shouted out, we want to get military salaries, but also want someone to be a soldier, what should we do?" Therefore, peace is the most important thing in everything, and we can talk about it. ”

Jiang Boqi just smiled awkwardly, he still didn't understand the meaning of Leng Rui's words.

Rong Pingye understood: "What if we can't talk?" ”

Leng Rui nodded: "Yes, if you can't talk, it's troublesome, but if you can't talk, it depends on who makes the first move." ”

Leng Rui got up and walked to Jiang Boqi's side, and suddenly took out a pistol and pointed it at Jiang Boqi's head.

Jiang Boqi was stunned for an instant, and Rong Pingye also hurriedly got up.

Leng Rui smiled: "Boss Jiang, I suddenly took out a gun and put it at your head, do you think I'm going to kill you?" ”

Jiang Boqi smiled and said, "How could Commissioner Leng do such a thing? ”

Rong Pingye immediately said: "Jokes are jokes, Brother Leng, please take a seat." ”

Leng Rui took the gun away, but stuffed it into Rong Pingye's hand: "If I want to kill Boss Jiang, Boss Jiang will definitely resist, right?" In this case, once Boss Jiang kills me, he is not guilty, I am the one who is guilty, and I deserve it, right? ”

Rong Pingye seemed to understand that Leng Rui played the Chamber of Commerce before, and let Jiang Boqi play the trade union, in other words, everything now needs a reason, and the teacher needs to be famous.

Leng Rui said again: "But I always see that Boss Jiang is not pleasing to the eye, I always want to kill him, because if I don't kill him, he will kill me one day sooner or later, so, I thought of a way, I handed over the gun to Brother Rong, and everyone knows that Brother Rong has a close relationship with Boss Jiang, I let Brother Rong kill me with a gun, everyone will think that it is Boss Jiang who hired the murderer, and when I kill Boss Jiang again, I will be innocent, I will achieve my goal, isn't this the truth?" ”

Jiang Boqi still didn't understand, but Rong Hirano had already understood it thoroughly.

Leng Rui knew very well that at present, the trade union would not directly attack the Chamber of Commerce, but was waiting for the Chamber of Commerce to strike first.

Once the Chamber of Commerce makes a move, the trade union is frustrated, and the intervention of the revolutionary army will not help the Chamber of Commerce, after all, it will cause dissatisfaction among the people, thinking that the revolutionary army is pulling the shelf, what should we do?

Very simply, the Chamber of Commerce will meet all the demands of the trade union with great fanfare, give what it wants, and wait until the right time to find someone pretending to be a trade union to attack the Chamber of Commerce, and when the time comes, everyone will sympathize with the Chamber of Commerce and condemn the trade union, even if the Chamber of Commerce takes any action, it is famous, and even in the end, it is logical for the revolutionary army to intervene to help the Chamber of Commerce.

In other words, it is a false accusation, plus a trumped-up crime, to achieve the ultimate goal.

Rong Pingye saw that Jiang Boqi didn't understand, and in order to avoid embarrassment, he explained everything to Jiang Boqi in a low voice.

After Jiang Boqi understood, he smiled, got up and poured wine for Leng Rui again.

Leng Rui said: "Now that you understand, then think about what to do next, but don't worry, you still need time to meet all the requirements of the union." ”

Rong Pingye asked, "So, what does Brother Leng want to do next?" ”

Leng Rui said: "I want to find a quiet and safe place, and by the way, let Boss Jiang introduce those foreigners in the concession." ”

Jiang Boqi immediately asked: "This is not difficult. ”

Leng Rui looked at the cup in his hand and said: "The above meaning is very clear, we don't want to disrupt the prosperity of Yongcheng, let alone see the economy of Yongcheng plummet, what we need is a city that is still prosperous and sings every night." ”

Leng Rui's words finally made the stones in Jiang Boqi and Rong Ping's ambitions fall to the ground, and they determined from Leng Rui's mouth that the upper echelons of the revolutionary army would never support Guan Mochen, let alone let Guan Mochen's trade union rise and control everything, and they did not have any intention of sending troops to recover the concession.

If the revolutionary army wants to unify the whole country, it needs war, and it uses war to solve war, and war requires a lot of money and manpower.

Therefore, the revolutionary army will not overthrow the Chamber of Commerce, will not recover the concessions, the so-called "down with the great powers and eliminate the warlords" is just a slogan, just like those street swindlers, set up a donation box, telling passers-by that they want to donate money for disaster relief in a certain place, even if they are in tears and hoarse, the ultimate goal is just to use a high-sounding excuse to get what they want.

But in this process, they deceived another group of people who really had the world in mind, and these people were idealists such as Guan Mochen.

In An Wanghai's eyes, they are idealists, but in Leng Rui's eyes, these idealists are just urinals, picking them up when they use them, kicking them under the bed when they don't use them, or even smashing them to pieces.
