The Republic is so violent

Chapter 112 Li Yuanhong's ruthless attack (2)
There is a reason for this. After all, the Jianghu combination of the Gongjinhui was split from the Tongmenghui, and it has always regarded Sun Wen as the leader of the Tongmenghui.The former aroused Huang Xing's hatred because Sun Wu sought to win the chief of the Nanjing government's army department. This army chief was tailor-made for Huang Xing. How could Huang Xing tolerate Sun Wu running to snatch him?
Huang Xing is upright, gentle in temperament, has a clear distinction between likes and dislikes, and is sincere and straightforward.Wang Zhixiang from Guangxi, who was older than him, called him Kegong, Huang Xing was overjoyed, and wanted to give Wang Zhixiang the important post of governor of Zhili.Huang Xing was furious when Sun Wu dared to compete with him for the chief of the army. He must make Sun Wu look good.

Therefore, the Nanjing government resolutely refused to grant Sun Wu any official position, which was tantamount to denying Sun Wu's status as the leader of righteousness.This negation had a decisive impact on the Gongjinhui.

The alliance's denial of Sun Wu brought about the contempt for Sun Wu in the Gongjin Association. In interpersonal communication, I was afraid that I would look down on the other party.Once you look down on the other party, you will wantonly hurt without feeling.So when the Qunyinghui ascended to the top and shouted, the people in the Gongjinhui immediately responded, a **** Sun Wu, it's no big deal to kill him, so let's kill him.

So all the Jianghu groups in Wuchang, such as the Literature Society and the Gongjinhui, took action, carrying guns and dragging cannons to kill Sun Wu, but unexpectedly, by mistake, Sun Wu failed to kill him, but instead killed Zhang Tingfu, a powerful figure in the Literature Society. This made the Literature Society feel unspeakably frustrated, and suddenly lost the mood to make trouble.

Although everyone lost their energy and made trouble again, Li Yuanhong did not dare to suppress him, so he had to accept everyone's request, revoked Sun Wu's post as chief of the Military Affairs Department, and downgraded the General Affairs Department to the Military Affairs Department.

The Gongjinhui, the Literary Society and all the rivers and lakes gangs joined forces to kill Sun Tzu. In the final analysis, the Revolutionary Party itself was against him, so Sun Wen had to ask.

Last night, I received a call from Hubei Province: All comrades clashed with Sun Wu, Minister of Military Affairs.Although the reasons are not well understood, the purpose of the Republic of China Army is to love our compatriots and protect the overall situation.Moreover, the minister was not in vain at the time of the uprising, so please forgive me especially.If there is something that cannot be tolerated, it is also advisable to declare the charges and discuss the measures together, which is a civilized act.Wen already telegraphed Zhang Zhenwu, Minister of Military Affairs, Du Xijun, Commander of the Northern Expedition, Wang Anlan, Commander of the Mixed Association, Wang Guodong, former Commander of the First Pioneer Army, etc., to try their best to solve the problem nearby, and immediately sent representatives to Hubei for a thorough investigation.It is hoped that all comrades will be peaceful, and that they will not hurt the wishes of fellow countrymen and comrades, and that they will not open the door for outsiders to interfere.

Sun Wen's telegram finally succeeded in pushing Zhang Zhenwu, one of the Wuchang Three Martial Arts, to the fore.

Speaking of which, Zhang Zhenwu was originally a weirdo. Before the uprising, he was a high school teacher. The books he read were "Ten Days in Yangzhou" and "Jiading Massacre of the City".Moreover, his anti-Qing and Ming-ming actions are personal and unique—he and his guards are all dressed up as martial arts students on the stage, with green headbands, red tasseled balls, soft-soled hero boots, and a hero knot at the waist. , Wherever he went, he was in a hurry, whirring, and it was extremely eye-catching.

Zhang Zhiben, the veteran of [-], recalled:
As for Zhang Zhenwu, before the uprising, he was a primary school teacher, and after the uprising, he was the minister of military affairs. His guards were dressed in stage attire, and they still did the same after leaving office.

The elder Zhang Zhiben meant that a person with an unusual style like Zhang Zhenwu is very easy to cause disasters.

why?

Because he was easily exploited, he became a victim of political struggle.

By whom?
Being used by someone doesn't matter much, being able to be used by others shows that you are somewhat valuable.Being born in the world, I am afraid that it has no value at all, and it is impossible to ask others to take advantage of it. Therefore, the great cause of the revolution is now being accomplished, and it is the three martial arts—Sun Wu, the leader of the Gongjin, and Jiang Lingwu and Zhang Zhenwu, the leaders of the Literary Society. great season.

06 Fat Boy Can't Run

However, since the Heroes Association made a big fuss in Wuchang and killed the revolutionary hero Zhang Tingfu, the fat boy Li Yuanhong was forced to comply with the request of the Heroes Association and forcibly reorganized the military government of Wuchang. old soldier.

As a result, there was a lot of turmoil in Wuchang, and everyone in the Revolutionary Party was in danger.

In October of that year, Wuchang held a meeting to commemorate the anniversary of the uprising. The participants included Cai Jimin, director of the Military Affairs Department of the Dudu Mansion, and Wu Xinghan, deputy director.At that time, Wu Xinghan held the cup in his hand and said:
We are still meeting here this year, I don't know what will happen next year.

The party members present here, upon hearing this remark, were all heartbroken, and some even wailed loudly.

His grandma's, this revolution, doesn't seem to be appropriate, no matter how his life is over, he is still as depressed as before, wanting money but not getting money, wanting women but not women... Or, let's revolutionize our lives again?
Following the Wuchang First Uprising and the Battle of the Heroes Association, Great Wuchang finally ushered in its third revolution: the Jagged Group.

This time, the person in charge is Zhang Zhenwu, who has the most unusual style, and Fang Wei, the head of the school regiment. The two called Zhu Zhiliu, Jiang Guangguo, Teng Yagang, the former Jiang Lingwu's subordinates of the Literary Society, and Sun Wu, the former Gongjinhui. His subordinate Li Zhongyi, Ma Chaojun, a member of the Tongmenghui, and others secretly established the Iron Blood Group. The political purpose of the organization is clearly stated at the beginning, which is to overthrow the military government and reform politics.

To overthrow the military government means to say: Kill the big fat boy Li Yuanhong.Reforming politics means: In the future, you have to decide for yourself. Why do you still listen to Li Yuanhong's yelling after you have lost your life for a long time?

In fact, Zhang Zhenwu has become the most powerful person in Wuchang. After the Qunyinghui incident, the generals and school regiments involved in the disturbance had nowhere to hide, and they all defected to Zhang Zhenwu.There were more than 1000 rebels in six brigades in the straggler station. Li Yuanhong wanted to dismiss them, but Zhang Zhenwu took the lead and reorganized these rebels into the military affairs department guards—that is, his own guards.

With such a strong strength, that's why some key members of the literary club turned their backs on Jiang Lingwu and transferred to Zhang Zhenwu's banner.And Zhang Zhenwu didn't take Li Yuanhong seriously, Fat Boy asked him to talk about the matter, he patted the table, pointed at Fat Boy's nose and cursed, so that Fat Boy's face turned red and white, but he dared not Say nothing.

The powerful Zhang Zhenwu openly challenged Li Yuanhong.At the opening ceremony of the national public school, he delivered a public speech, saying:

The revolution must be several times, and the bloodshed must be tens of thousands!

Now that this sentence has been said publicly, it means that the Iron Blood Group is about to attack.But how did Zhang Zhenwu think of it? As the saying goes, the mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.Ever since the Qunyinghui incident, Sun Wu vowed to avenge the blood. He has been sending people to secretly watch Zhang Zhenwu.

The member of the Sun Wu faction is Li Zhongyi, the most active member of the Iron Blood Group.Every time Li Zhongyi participated in a secret meeting, he had to report to Sun Wu.According to the article "Letter from Jiang Lingwu to Sun Wu" published in "Minli Daily" after the incident, there is no evidence that Sun Wu made a small report to Li Yuanhong, and the person who made the small report should be Li Zhongyi himself.And the mastermind behind the instigation of Li Zhongyi to report on Zhang Zhenwu is the party member Sun Wu.

However, even though Li Yuanhong had been informed that Zhang Zhenwu was going to attack him, but Zhang Zhenwu was powerful, and as the saying goes, Li Yuanhong was powerless to fight Zhang Zhenwu with his strength.

At that time, the fat boy Li Yuanhong was terrified, thinking, what should we do?

Or I'll just run away.Li Yuanhong thought to himself.

But I'm so fat, I can't even run.

Since I can't run, I can only excuse Zhang Zhenwu to run.

Li Yuanhong decided: send a telegram to Yuan Shikai.

07 Secret fight

The three martial arts are fiercely fighting for the great Wuchang, and the iron and blood want to get rid of the big fat boy.Judging from the current historical data, Wuchang's three military struggles and the Jagged Group's three revolutions are actually still secretly arranged by the Tongmenghui.You know, Ma Chaojun, an important figure in the League, is in the iron blood group.

But this time the revolution was easily suppressed by Li Yuanhong because of Zhang Zhenwu's reckless going north.

In August 1912, Yuan Shikai issued a recruitment list, to recruit talents from all over the world, and begged for recommendations from all provinces. Fat boy Li Yuanhong strongly recommended Zhang Zhenwu.Zhang Zhenwu never doubted that he was a talent, so he immediately went north and embarked on the road of no return.

In this recruitment list, Yuan Shikai saw that Li Yuanhong was really pitiful, so he did Fat Boy a small favor and set up a death trap for Zhang Zhenwu to lure him to go.Regarding the details of this incident, Ma Chaojun, the veteran of Xinhai, recalled:
...Later he (Li Yuanhong) hired me as a consultant to the Governor's Mansion. Since I set up a Zhongxing branch in Hankou, I was happy to take up this idle job.At this time, comrades in Wuhan, everyone felt that Li Yuanhong had no vision and betrayed Yuan Shikai, which violated the party's doctrine.When Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei gather comrades, organize the iron blood group, and invite me to participate.Everyone gathered to overthrow Li Yuanhong and control Wuhan.Due to the frequent secret discussions, the voice became more and more popular, and the news was leaked. Li Yuanhong detected it and sent a secret message to Yuan Shikai: Summoned in the name of the president, and lured Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei to go north. They were arrested and killed in Beijing.At the same time, Li Yuanhong searched the headquarters of the Iron Blood Group, arrested more than a hundred people, and obtained the group's roster.Li thought I was an advisor to the governor's mansion, and he hated me even more for participating in this matter, so he arrested me and sent me to the army prison.When the Prime Minister heard about this, he entrusted Wu Tingfang, Wen Zongyao, and Wu Zhihui to jointly sign Li Gubao. He was released on April 2, 4, and was sentenced to 30 months in prison.

Ma Chaojun's memories revealed a big secret to us, and brought a doubt about time:
Ma Chaojun set up a ZTE branch in Hankou—this company was originally a secret agency of the Revolutionary Party. Ma Chaojun had a dual identity and secretly joined the Iron Blood Corps, vaguely revealing the real situation behind the Iron Blood Corps.However, we still do not have sufficient evidence to conclude that Zhang Zhenwu's Jagged Group is a secret arrangement of the Tongmenghui. At most, we can only say that the Tongmenghui was also one of the parties involved in the incident of the Jagged group's downfall of Yuan and Zhang Zhenwu.

Another confusion is when the Iron Blood Corps was destroyed by Li Yuanhong.

Most of the current data prove that Fatty Li destroyed the Iron Blood Group in July 1912, while Zhang Zhenwu and his party arrived in Beijing on August 7. There is a time difference, which prevents us from clearly analyzing the cause of the incident.But since the revolutionary veteran Ma Chaojun confirmed that Li's destruction of the Iron Blood Corps was after he lured Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei to go north, it is sufficient proof that the Zhang Zhenwu incident was a secret fierce battle between Yuan and Li who joined forces to deal with the alliance to seize the world. .

This fierce battle is intricate and complicated to the point that it cannot be added, but it can be roughly divided into four branches and one flower.

The four gates are Jiang Lingwu Gate, Zhang Zhenwu Gate, Er Nai Gate and Nanhu Cavalry Gate.The film is about Huang Zhenxiang, a ranger from Jingchu—that is, the box cannon that intercepted Tang Shaoyi who abandoned his official position and fled privately on the river.

The first is Jiang Ling Wumen.It is said that Zhang Zhenwu's Iron Blood Corps was secretly operating and was planning to kill the fat boy Li Yuanhong, but he didn't know that all the secrets were reported to Sun Wu by Li Zhongyi from the Gongjin Association, so Sun Wu ordered Li Zhongyi to report to Li Yuanhong quickly and offered a clever plan:
Kill Zhu and control six, in order to make a big deal and affect innocent people, it is a plan to catch all in one go. (See "Jiang Lingwu's Letter to Sun Wu" in "Minli Daily" on August 1912, 8)
The fat boy Li Yuanhong was overjoyed, and immediately dispatched the guards and police to plagiarize the lair of the Iron Blood Group, arrested the former members of the literary society Zhu Zhiliu, Jiang Guangguo, and Teng Yagang, and found out the call to action, announcements, documents, rosters, badges, and order flags , leaflets, petitions and other evidence.

Then Li Yuanhong called Jiang Lingwu, the hero of the revolution: Jiang Lingwu, you are the head of the literature society, and these three people are all your subordinates, and all the evidence has been shown to you. What do you think about this matter? Do it, give me a word.

The final result depends on Jiang Lingwu's statement, so this stage is called Jiang Lingwu Gate.

So what would Jiang Lingwu say in the face of the life and death of his subordinates?

He said: I have a different way from them, and my ambitions are also different, so I don't conspire with each other.

These words decided the fate of Zhu Zhiliu and others.

After hearing this, Li Yuanhong waved his hand: That's it, deal with it by military law.

Zhu Zhiliu, Jiang Guangguo and Teng Yagang were shot.

The next day, the military police and Li Yuanhong's guards broke into the French Concession, arrested several key members of the Iron Blood Corps, and then issued a notice, claiming that Li Yuanhong had no intention of pursuing them, and that the roster of the rebellious party had been destroyed, and he would not be implicated.

There is also Li Zhongyi, who was guaranteed by Sun Wu and received a reward of 1000 yuan from Li Yuanhong, and has since disappeared into the vast crowd.

The Jiangling Wumen Gate was closed so far, and the Wuchang Sanwu no longer existed at this time.

08 Big Fat Boy Has Big Hands

However, it was said that the Iron Blood Group was cracked by Sun Wu of the Gongjin Association, and the Tongmenghui got a report, and there was an uproar immediately, so they sent a telegram asking Sun Wu to explain this.Sun Wu pretended not to receive the telegram and ignored it. The alliance would be angry, but there was nothing he could do.

At this time, Zhang Zhenwu, Fang Wei and his party had already arrived in Beijing, where they were inviting friends and making friends in the social arena, calling for the wind and the rain. Three days later, Li Yuanhong's secretary Rao Huasheng and more than a dozen military officers, carrying Li's secret letter, flew to Beijing by express train, went straight to Yuan Shikai's mansion, and told Yuan Shikai that Wuchang had been settled and he could do something here.

Yuan Shikai ordered a grand dinner to be held at the Liuguo Hotel in Dongjiaomin Lane, and Zhang Zhenwu and Fang Wei were invited to the dinner.After the two arrived, they were greeted by Beiyang Duan Zhigui, Lu Jianzhang and others, so everyone sat down and drank to their hearts' content, enjoying the wine with the wind, and they were all overjoyed.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after the feast was over, Zhang Zhenwu left the Liuguo Hotel and drove back to his apartment.Beiyang Duan Zhigui followed closely behind, and when he reached the front door, Duan Zhigui sped up and caught up, and took out something to show Zhang Zhenwu: General Zhang, what do you think this is?
Zhang Zhenwu took a closer look: Well, it seems to be an arrest warrant.

Duan Zhigui: General Zhang's eyes are as sharp as lightning, and he knows at a glance that this is the military order to arrest you...Suddenly he let go of his throat and shouted loudly: Come on, catch this man...Just listen to the bang, the darkness Among them, countless soldiers who had already ambushed at the front door swarmed up, rushing towards Zhang Zhenwu's car from all directions.Zhang Zhenwu was shocked when he saw this, and shouted:

The capital of the country is an important place, your generation still dares to rob people, and I, Zhang Zhenwu, do so, why are you so helpless?

Before he could stop shouting, he was already grabbed by the soldiers tightly, tied up in groups, and forcibly dragged to the Military and Political General Law Enforcement Office for questioning.

Here, Zhang Zhenwu met Lu Jianzhang who was enthusiastically clinking wine glasses just now. This person is the Director of Law Enforcement. He formally read Li Yuanhong's secret message to Zhang Zhenwu.The secret telegram stated: Zhang Zhenwu "formed a clique with the power of the patriarch, acted recklessly, undermined the republic, and conspired against the law."

Zhang Zhenwu was stunned, shook his head again and again, and said: Fake, this secret message is fake, Li Yuanhong would never do this, absolutely not.

Lu Jianzhang then showed Yuan Shikai's warrant to Zhang Zhenwu: This is not fake, is it?

On this occasion, Zhang Zhenwu looked up to the sky and sighed, saying: "Dead ears, what can I say!"Lizi is unscrupulous, and this is the end of it!
It means: Big Fat Boy, Li Yuanhong, I never expected you to be so ruthless.

In the middle of the night, Zhang Zhenwu was executed by shooting, and Fang Wei was killed at the same time.

This incident is very famous in Chinese history, and we call it Zhang Zhenwu Gate.With the death of Zhang Zhenwu, history will open another mysterious door for us:
Second wife door!
The killing of Zhang Zhenwu aroused extreme panic among the revolutionaries.At that time, Sun Wen was about to go to Beijing to meet Yuan Shikai. When they heard about this, party members dissuaded Sun Wen one after another, fearing that he would fall into Yuan Shikai's hands.But what puzzled the party members was whether Zhang Zhenwu's death was an accident, or was Yuan Shikai planning to carry out a full-scale extermination of the party members?

Can't be sure, can only find out first.So the party members secretly discussed, and Huang Xing sent a mildly worded telegram, which said: ... There is no judicial decision, so it is difficult to explain this question.Begging to declare more clearly, in order to solve the confusion of the group, the republic is very lucky.At the same time, Sun Wu, the leader of the Gongjin Association, and Jiang Lingwu, the leader of the Literature Society—who also came to Beijing a few days after Zhang Zhenwu arrived in Beijing—led the Hubei people from the military circles to the Presidential Palace to ask Yuan Shikai After all.

How did Yuan Shikai know that this incident was originally planned by Sun Wu himself, so he replied: I am sorry for this incident, but you should have understood the situation.I handled it based on a call from Vice President Li.I know that if I feel sorry for the Hubei people, people all over the world will scold me, but I can't save his life.

As soon as Yuan Shikai said this, the party members suddenly realized: it turns out that Yuan Shikai himself has no confidence, feels that he is wrong, and firmly believes that everyone in the world will scold him... Then what are you waiting for?Hurry up, everyone scold him together!

Therefore, the Shanghai "Democracy Daily" controlled by the revolutionary party published an article signed "Xueer" under the title "Zhang Zhenwu is dead". The article said:

Zhang Zhenwu, one of the Wuhan advocates.Today, unfortunately, Yan City is bleeding.Alas!When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden.The autocratic monarch regards the world as his own selfishness, and after the survey and determination of Liuhe, he kills the heroes and makes them leave nothing behind.Instead of reforming the political system and democratizing, but also performing this tragedy, the current situation is opposite, and the past and the present are lamenting the same, what is more lamentable.

Zhang Zhenwu, the representative of the Vice President, is also welcomed by the President.The name of the representative has not been removed, but Li's urgent telegram asks to kill him.So how is Li Shi different from suicide?What is the difference between a big president and the hasty killing of the vice president.The same presumptuousness, the most wronged person, that is, Zhang Zhenwu himself, never expected to be Li Shi's scapegoat.

Zhang Zhenwu is the founder of the civil society, a member of the Republican Party, and Li Nai is the chairman of the Republican Party.After Li Yuanhong went to Beijing with Zhang Zhenwu, he suddenly killed Yuan with a false hand, which seems to be internal strife in the Republican Party.However, the undercurrent in Wuhan may become stronger from now on.

Zhang Zhenwu, Senior Advisor to the President and Vice President.The president's senior adviser has achieved such a result. Those who are proud of the senior adviser can do nothing to be disappointed.Alas!To a certain high-level adviser who sows right and wrong, he is also a little bit safe and good at protecting the leader.

Speaking of this report alone, it was full of murderous intent. First, it named "Wuchang's undercurrent is strong." In fact, it called on the party members in Wuchang to save themselves quickly; "The leader of good protection", Sun Wu would probably be scared to death by this call to arms.

At the same time, members of the League of Representatives in the Senate immediately issued a letter of questioning, but most members opposed it, because they were afraid that if the cover was lifted, Zhang Zhenwu's reputation as the leader of the righteous and revolutionary giant would not be preserved.

But what are you afraid of? The cover of the revolutionary tycoon Zhang Zhenwu was still lifted, exposing a "second wife door" leading to our primitive instincts.

09 Mistress Calls Me to Fight

It was the Shanghai "Shenbao" on August 1912, 8, which was the first to uncover the cover of the revolutionary tycoon Zhang Zhenwu.
