Years of the Republic of China 1913

As soon as the news of the armistice between China and Japan spread internally, Sun Wen, who was far away in Tokyo, received a secret tip. Decades of fighting experience told him that the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

After the second revolution, Sun Wen was almost completely defeated in the country. Not only did he lose his domestic foundation and supporters, even after he fled to Japan, the number of people who followed him was less and less.What made him even more depressed was that the government of Japan, which had always supported him, changed its original attitude, suddenly cut off economic support, and even more forcefully tricked him into Taiwan* where he was placed under house arrest for a period of time until Japan's domestic economy was in crisis. That's when the bad attitude started to change.

Due to his time in Taiwan, he was unable to directly control the affairs of the revolutionary party in Japan, and the lack of funds and spiritual support of the revolutionary party was distracted, which made many comrades in the party suffer from Song Jiaoren and Liao Zhongkai. After waiting for the temptation of money and power, they left the Revolutionary Party and returned to China to participate in politics. Even the Zhigong Party in the United States changed its original support attitude and turned neutral under the lobbying of Liao Zhongkai.This series of blows made Sun Wen very depressed, and he even thought of disbanding the Revolutionary Party as he had no future in sight.

However, Sun Wen is Sun Wen, Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death is the best evaluation of him, but at the lowest point of his life, he ushered in the fruit of love, and his beautiful wife was in his arms, which made Sun Wen feel younger all of a sudden , The frustration in politics has also eased a lot, so I slowly cheered up.After the war between China and Japan, Sun Wen, who has a keen sense of smell, immediately sensed the coming of an opportunity, but he did not act immediately, but waited for the opportunity. Came to visit quietly, and he was Uchida Ryohei, the leader of the Black Dragon Society.

Uchida Ryohei came to visit his old friend as a personal nature, and of course he left a check for 30 yuan to Sun Wen when he left.Putting the check away calmly, Sun Wen knew very well what the Japanese were planning, but it didn't matter, if he wanted to make a comeback, he would have to rely on the power of Japan to succeed. Both of them got what they needed, as for the future.Sun Wen felt that the most important thing was to allow himself to control the power of the country first.

Isn’t there a proverb in Western countries, that is, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies in this world, and politicians don’t need to talk about conscience, which is just a beautiful coat to cover up dirty tricks. Ri himself wants to rely on Sun Wen to disrupt China's political situation and profit from it.Is it not the case with Sun Wen?The two are just making use of each other. Today's friends join hands to laugh and talk, who knows if swords and swords will meet again tomorrow?

Sun Wen, who received economic support from the Japanese intelligence department, finally breathed a sigh of relief until the Sino-Japanese armistice negotiations began.Sun Wen judged that the real opportunity had come.As expected, the Sino-Japanese armistice was signed shortly after. On the surface, there was no winner in the Sino-Japanese war, but this armistice agreement alone can still make a big article.

Some time ago, the lack of popular support of the Revolutionary Party caused many party members to leave the party.But it also makes the core of the entire revolutionary party more pure and cohesive.The remaining party members are all Sun Wen's confidantes who can absolutely trust and follow him.

In a Japanese-style courtyard in Tokyo, Sun Wen, wearing a kimono, sat cross-legged at the entrance of the corridor, with a cup of sake in front of him. The melodious sound of silk and bamboo came faintly, the courtyard was covered with snow, and a few wintersweet flowers were in full bloom.

"Sir, Mr. Xu and Mr. Chen are here." A Japanese servant approached with small steps and said softly.

"They're here? Hurry up, invite them in!" Sun Wen stood up immediately.I didn't even have time to wear shoes and ran over barefoot.

"Dongyun, Kuishi, you guys came here so fast! I thought you guys would arrive at night, hahaha, come here, please come inside." He laughed heartily.The two looked at Sun Wen in front of them and couldn't help but move their eyes to his bare feet.

"Brother Yixian, your actions are quite like Cao Mengde of the Three Kingdoms."

"Haha, what about Cao Mengde, it's nothing more than the inconvenient Japanese customs. Hearing that an old friend is visiting, he can't wait to rush out, and it's just too late to put on his shoes." Sun Wen shook his head with a smile.

"Okay! This is a real man. True sex!" Chen Shaobai clapped his hands and laughed, and took off his shoes and stepped on the floor with bare feet. into the courtyard.

Although the small Japanese-style courtyards are not as exquisite as the Suzhou gardens, and even less majestic than the large courtyards in Beijing, they still have a unique flavor.He invited two friends to sit down where he sat cross-legged before, and poured two cups of sake with his own hands.

"The snail's house is shabby, so Sun can only treat guests with leftover wine."

"It's okay!"

The three looked at each other and smiled, toasted and drank together.After putting down his cup, Chen Shaobai looked around at the simple layout and Sun Wen's ordinary clothes and couldn't help sighing: "Brother Yixian is a revolutionary pioneer, and the party's prime minister is usually so frugal. It's really admirable!"

"Where is it?" Sun Wen smiled and said: "The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard. Our Chinese nation has been weak for hundreds of years, and now the world is undergoing a period of great change that has never been seen in thousands of years. At this time Of course, the country and the nation should be the most important thing, so why talk about personal enjoyment.”

"Well said! Well said!" Chen Shaobai and Xu Tongxiong praised at the same time, especially Xu Tongxiong interjected: "Brother Yixian once said a word in the early years, that is 'the world is for the public', which is the same as Fan Xiwen The phrase "worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joy later" together expresses the great ambitions that a true revolutionary should have. For so many years, Brother Yixian has always cared about the country and is indomitable. His revolutionary ambition is really impressive. People sigh, come, come, let's toast Brother Yixian together."

The three laughed and drank another glass of wine together. Unexpectedly, when Sun Wen poured wine for them again after the glass was put down, he found that the wine was gone.

"Come on, let's have another jug ​​of wine!"

"Sir, there is no wine at home." The Japanese servant trotted over and bowed his head.

"How come? Go find it!" Sun Wen said a little displeased.

"It's really gone. This jug of wine was bought by my wife as her jewelry a few days ago."

Although the servant's voice was soft, the two people beside him could hear it clearly.Sun Wen was taken aback for a moment, and his expression became awkward.At this moment, Mrs. Sun who was in the room heard the voice and came out. Seeing the empty wine bottle on the plate, Mrs. Sun smiled faintly: "I'll go get some wine."

"Wait!" Chen Shaobai hurriedly stopped him, he was neither deaf nor blind, he heard what he said just now, did they actually ask Madam Sun to exchange their own things for wine after they came?If the wine is really exchanged, can he drink it?

"This is money. Go and make a few jugs of good wine and buy some side dishes." Chen Shaobai took out a few banknotes from his pocket and stuffed them into the servant's hand and ordered.

"Kuishi, this..." Just as Sun Wen wanted to stop him, Chen Shaobai said seriously: "Brother Yixian, we are all revolutionary comrades, why bother to talk about you and I being so clear, that's all, if it doesn't work, Chen will leave now. "

"Hey... well..." Sun Wen thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement, waving his hand to signal the servant to go and come back quickly, but the embarrassment and decline in his expression could be seen at a glance.

They sat down again, temporarily replaced the wine with the tea brought by Mrs. Sun, and the three continued to talk.

"Brother Yixian, is the situation in the party not good? Could it be...?" Chen Shaobai asked.

Sun Wen shook his head and sighed softly. Xu Tongxiong next to him helped explain a few words. When he heard that due to Song Jiaoren and others, the Revolutionary Party lost most of its overseas aid, resulting in an extreme shortage of funds within the Party. When Sun Wen barely maintained his savings and sold his personal belongings, Chen Shaobai couldn't help but flash a trace of anger on his face.

"This Song Dunchu is really hateful!" Chen Shaobai slapped the table heavily, scolding: "We were both members of the Tongmenghui back then, even if we had different political opinions, we couldn't do this, isn't this the joke of relatives and enemies? Someone told me that Song Jiaoren had colluded with Beiyang since he went to the north and abandoned the revolutionary idea. I didn't believe this at first, but who would have thought it was true? Damn it! It's really hateful!"

"Dunchu also has difficulties. It is not so easy to govern a big country. Besides, Beiyang is powerful. How can he not cooperate as the prime minister? As for collusion or something, this is a serious word. Such a person would never do such a thing." Sun Wen did not follow Chen Shaobai's words and cursed, but instead explained Song Jiaoren in a very understanding manner.

"Absolutely not, I think he has completely deteriorated! He has become Beiyang's running dog!" Sun Wen's explanation did not calm Chen Shaobai, on the contrary, he became even more angry, and immediately cited a bunch of things, of course these He was just hearsay, and he didn't know how much of the truth there was.

"Hehe, it's just that the three become tigers. It's normal for Song Dunchu's high-ranking political opponents to criticize, Kui Shi! After all, some things need to be seen to be believed to be believed. After all, Dunchu and I are old friends. I can still trust him, but Dunchu has always done things ideally, some ideas are good, and his heart for the people is also sincere, but I'm afraid that he will be confused by the people below and lead the country to the wrong path!"

"That's right, it should be like this." Xu Tongxiong agreed from the side, and helped Sun Wen with a few words of persuasion, and then Chen Shaobai regained his composure.

"Brother Yixian is as open-minded as a valley, I admire you!" Chen Shaobai drank the water in the glass in one gulp, and after putting down the glass heavily, he took out an envelope from his arms and handed it with both hands.

"This is..." Sun Wen said a little strangely.

"My little brother knows that brother Yixian is in a difficult situation and the funds for the revolution are insufficient, so he deliberately traveled around Nanyang for many days, and finally raised 75 yuan. This is a check, to do my best."

"How is this possible? I can't stand it." Sun Wen hurriedly stood up and refused, but Chen Shaobai refused to take it back. It was only with difficulty that he accepted it.

"Kuishi, thank you, the revolution thank you, the Chinese nation thank you!" Sun Wen said excitedly while holding Chen Shaobai's hand.
