The Republic is so violent

Chapter 115
01 One Hundred Thousand Fiends' Hooligan Party

It is said that the Guangdong area is the key care area of ​​Sun Wen's revolution. Many uprisings took place here, and the revolutionary forces in the countryside are very strong.After arriving in Guangzhou to respond to Wuchang's declaration of independence, when Hu Hanmin of the Tongmenghui became the governor, no less than 51 revolutionary troops of various brands emerged in an instant, with a total number of no less than 148454, and they all marched to Guangzhou to find food. .

I believe that when Hu Hanmin saw so many big diners, he would definitely cry on the spot.Lose your old mother, our alliance will revolt again and again, each time it is difficult to fight alone, at most it is a battle of hundreds of people rushing to kill.Now that the revolution is victorious, but more than [-] revolutionary troops have emerged from one guy. You think I am an idiot, and I want to feed you super big rice buckets?
Just when he was depressed, the good news came. Sun Wen sent Hu Hanmin to Shanghai to fight for the president. There were more than [-] foodies in Guangzhou, and Chen Jiongming settled it.

At that time, Chen Jiongming was terrified. What kind of joke did he throw more than [-] people to me? What would I use to feed so many big diners?Serving a meal is not comfortable, these guys will kill and set you on fire right away, don't do it!
Chen Jiongming resolutely refused.

Sun Wen was determined to let him do it.

In the end, Chen Jiongming couldn't handle Sun Wen, so he had to bite the bullet and go into battle, but he had something to say first: 15 days, up to 15 days, after 15 days, regardless of whether Hu Hanmin comes back, I, Chen, will quit anyway.

Sun Wen fully agreed, promising to send Wang Jingwei to serve as the governor of Guangdong, and then left with an elated Hu Hanmin.

So Chen Jiongming issued the letter of acting as the governor of Guangdong, briefly saying:
At the time of this dilemma, I had no choice but to follow the wishes of the public and make an appointment as an agent.I hope that all walks of life will work together to subsidize and raise public security together, so as not to cause other changes.On the one hand, he sent a telegram to Wang Jingwei and Gong Zhaoming to return to his post quickly. By then, he will serve the Yangtze River, drink horses and the Yellow River, and sweep the caves in the courtyard to clean up the filth of our compatriots for 260 years.

After releasing the documents, Chen Jiongming began to think about how to get rid of all the more than [-] hooligans and bandits pretending to be the revolutionary party?Well, where to start?While thinking about it, he picked up the newspaper, and suddenly exclaimed: "Too bad, which reporter has such a bad heart, and he spread the news before my side did anything... Immediately arrest this lousy reporter for me!"
The first thing Chen Jiongming did was to arrest reporter Chen Tingxiang.Because Chen Tingxiang's mind is super smart, and he published an article on Chen Jiongming's plan to abolish the army. If this news is known to the rogue army of more than [-] gods, then it's okay?

Therefore, Chen Tingxiang must be caught.

However, when Chen Tingxiang was arrested, there was an uproar in the Guangzhou press circles. The General Chamber of Commerce published a letter to compatriots in 17 newspapers, saying:
Do Dudu Chen want to join the newspaper office to show off his prestige, and want to be the second Zhang Mingqi who closed the eight newspaper offices a few months ago?Chen Dudu's unreasonable interference is really unacceptable.Today, the military government of Guangdong is the military government of 3000 million compatriots in Guangdong. My colleagues are responsible for supervision and only know how to maintain it. No matter who violates the rules of the republic, they will be corrected. The barbaric act of the report is only a personal matter of Chen Dudu, and has nothing to do with the military government. There is no Chen Dudu in Guangdong, and there are still many people...

Chen Jiongming read the sarcasm in the newspaper, and tears kept streaming down: Throw away your old mother, what are you talking about, Dudu Chen, there is still a lot of people, as tall as your mother!Now Hu Hanmin is slipping away, Wang Jingwei will not pick up this hot potato, there are more than [-] murderous desperadoes here, don't look at those evil stars who were hiding like grandsons when they overthrew the Qing Empire, you can't find them , but at this time it is quite easy to cause trouble and burn your newspaper office.I think about your lives, my hair is graying, and you still scold me...

I have no choice but to let Chen Tingxiang go.

Chen Tingxiang went back unconvinced and continued to write articles scolding Chen Jiongming. Here, Chen Jiongming received bad news:

In Shantou, the army that claims to support the Tongmenghui has exchanged fire with the army that claims to support the Restoration Association.

02 The Violent Inertia of Revolution

It is said that the Shantou area was originally the territory of the Triad Society of the Jianghu Society.In the early years in Singapore, there was a rich second generation named Xu Xueqiu who lived in a Huatang and was worried about the world, so he sold his property and returned to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.He conspired with the triad leader Yu Chou and others, and met Sun Wen in Hong Kong, and joined the Tongmenghui from then on.But the uprising failed immediately, and Xu Xueqiu was exiled in the rivers and lakes, marginalized by the Tongmenghui, and turned to the Guangfuhui in anger to continue the revolution.

At the time of the revolution, a cannon shot suddenly came from Wuchang. The revolutionary flicker had won, and the Republic of China had come to an end. Xu Xueqiu and others suddenly lost their goal of the revolution.Although the goal is lost, the violent inertia of the revolution is still there, and the revolution must continue.

So the Restoration Society came to revolutionize the Tongmenghui, and the Tongmenghui honestly and unceremoniously dismissed it back.

Now this problem has to be solved by Chen Jiongming.

Chen Jiongming's solution to the problem is simple and neat: resign!Lose your old mother, I quit!
This is the first time Chen Jiongming has resigned.

quit?If you don't do it, don't do it.Sun Wen's remonstrance flowed like a wave, and he sent a power generation to let Tongmenghui Feng Ziyou be the governor of Guangdong.Unexpectedly, Feng Ziyou said: Report to the President, I am only a revolutionist, not an official, and the governor will not do it even if he is paid.

After hearing this, Sun Wen said, "Okay, then let Chen Jiongming come."

Chen Jiongming shook his head again and again: No, no, didn't we agree that there would be another Wang Jingwei? Where did he hide?Hurry up and let him come to Guangzhou...

But the current situation is that everyone is walking around Guangzhou. There are more than [-] local hooligans, all under the banner of the Revolutionary Army, but please don't get involved, it will be miserable.Seeing this situation, Chen Jiongming became anxious and simply submitted his resignation to the provincial council.The provincial council was also immoral, and immediately held a meeting and passed a resolution to elect Chen Jiongming as the official governor of Guangdong.Now, the second resignation failed, and Chen Jiongming couldn't dodge it even if he wanted to.

In the midst of despair, life suddenly appeared.

I don't know who was the victim of the knife, but I found a treasure from Hong Kong. This treasure is Sun Mei, the elder brother of the great revolutionary leader Sun Wen.Speaking of which, Sun Mei used to run a ranch in Honolulu, USA, and raised a lot of cattle. My younger brother, Sun Wen, went to trick his elder brother into selling cattle to support his revolution every day. The elder brother was forced to sell a few cows first, and then a few more. Gradually, more and more were sold, and it gradually became a sunk cost. All the cattle were sunk in the younger brother's revolutionary project, and it seemed that there was no hope of getting it back.

Unexpectedly, my younger brother's revolution actually succeeded, and the happiest must be my elder brother Sun Mei.Just when he was happy, someone suddenly came to persuade Sun Mei: "Old Sun, what are you still doing here?"I have never heard that the people of Guangzhou look forward to the stars and the moon, so they hope that you will become the governor of Guangdong.After hearing this, Sun Mei was surprised and delighted: Really?But I don't know how to be an official, I only know how to herd cattle...

The other party said: Being an official is much easier than herding cattle. You see that the financial, military, political, and newspaper circles are all supporting you. What are you waiting for?
The fact is really like this, hundreds of telegrams were sent to Sun Wen begging Sun Mei to be the governor of Guangdong Province.Some of the people who took these telegrams were really short-sighted, thinking that Sun Wen became the president, which was equivalent to the emperor, and his elder brother Sun Mei would also be crowned king.Some people were too evil-minded, knowing that Sun Mei didn't understand the danger of the situation in Guangzhou, and deliberately pushed Sun Mei into the pit of fire.

Elder brother Sun Mei is not good enough, but younger brother Sun Wen has a lot more intellect. Don’t you know that the governor of Guangdong Province is not a human job at all. If you get involved in this job, you will be killed if you get involved in this job, and you will be responsible for the worst case. Get rid of more than [-] murderers without blinking an eye, but these local hooligans are wearing revolutionary red hats. How do you do this job?
Checking Chen Jiong's genealogy, since this poor guy was pushed into the fire pit of the governor of Guangdong, he offered to resign more than a dozen times, but in the end he had no escape.

As for Sun Wen, he pulled his elder brother up from the fire pit with only a light hand. Sun Wen sent a telegram to the people from all walks of life in Guangzhou, explaining why his elder brother, Sun Mei, should not be allowed to do the job:
There is a telegram connecting brothers from all walks of life as the governor of Guangdong, but there is no answer in the text, which is not to avoid suspicion.My elder brother is very straightforward, but he is not good at politics. Once on the stage, people are easy to be deceived.The governor of Guangdong has a heavy responsibility, and his talents are shallow, which is definitely not appropriate.If you choose someone for the matter, you should arrange the militia and handle the industry, and your brother should be able to do it.Instead of being too strong to overcome difficulties, the future will inevitably be horrified, so how to be cautious from the beginning.There is no one who knows a brother like a brother. If you love my Guangdong, you love your brother.

I believe that Chen Jiongming will definitely cry when he sees this telegram.Oh, your brother is upright, so he can't be the governor of Guangdong. Could it be that I, Chen Jiongming, have a crooked personality and have to do this strange job for you?

After complaining, there is still no way.Then do it.

kill!

Poor Chen Jiongming, he was forced to embark on the road of no return for offending the Cantonese and leaving his infamy for thousands of years.

03 Everyone in the world says they can kill
On February 1912, 2, Chen Jiongming ordered the army to go straight to the Shi Jinquan Department of the Revolutionary Army, besieged more than 27 people in the Shi Department, and ordered Shi Jinquan to come out. Shi Jinquan poked his head out in surprise and asked: What's the matter?Chen Jiongming shouted: "Look again, I'll let you see clearly."Shi Jinquan rushed out as if flying, and was about to take a closer look, when he was hit by a rain of bullets head-on, killing him immediately.

Then Chen Jiongming officially announced Shi Jinquan's crimes: Shi Jinquan, the leader of the militia, led more than 2000 people, robbed stores, smuggled arms, tied the flesh tickets of rich people, and attempted to rob foreign ships. ...All the soldiers of the Shizi Battalion are all provocateurs.Throwing guns and handing in ammunition, it is convenient to give kindness to farmers, and there is no need to lose the corner and cause trouble and heavy killing.

Shi Jinquan was killed, and 15 revolutionary troops were frightened away. Immediately, 2 troops with a total of [-] people declared the revolution a success, and they were disarmed and returned to the fields.

The revolutionary army of more than 2 people wiped out [-] people in one fell swoop.Chen Jiongming was relieved, and then moved his eyes to the next target: Wang Heshun!
Who is Wang Heshun?
Speaking of Wang Heshun, he is very famous. He once fought side by side with Huang Xing in Fangcheng, he once opened fire on Guangxi Qing soldiers at Zhennan Pass, and he was honored as a national soldier by Sun Wen in the two battles of Qinlian and Hekou ——Sun Wen staged a total of ten uprisings, and Wang Heshun was responsible for carrying out four of them. From this we can see his weight in the revolutionary army.All in all, Wang Heshun is a veteran and important minister of the Revolutionary Party. Whether it is his military talent or his armed strength, he should not be underestimated.

You can't take a small glance and you can't do anything about it, so you have to kill it.

If you don’t get rid of you, Wang Heshun, then you have to be raised as a national treasure, but the situation faced by the Guangdong military government and the Nanjing government is the same. They have no money and can’t afford so many revolutionary treasures, so they can only be killed.

After many years, the details of the Guangzhou Revolutionary Party's cannibalism are no longer very clear.Judging from the countless telegrams between the two sides, it seems that Chen Jiongming sent a patrol team to move in the direction of Wang Heshun.Wang Heshun immediately fired friendly shots, bang bang bang, bang bang bang, the patrol team didn't know if it was dead or alive, but more patrol teams came one after another.There was a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides. The casualties on Wang Heshun's side are unknown, but Chen Jiongming reported that a platoon leader of his own unit was killed, three soldiers were killed, and more than ten others were injured.

Since then, the battle has become more and more confusing. Wang Heshun and Chen Jiongming fought fiercely while sending telegrams to Sun Wen, accusing each other of their crimes.The general situation is that Chen Jiongming retreated and fired artillery at Wang Heshun's camp, which eventually led to the collapse of Wang Heshun's entire army. The Humen Fort, wantonly recruiting troops, privately buying arms, harboring evil intentions, inciting troops to cause chaos, attempting to overthrow the government, destroying peace... and so on.

Killing Shi Jinquan is fine, but now that Chen Jiongming is chasing and killing the revolutionary veteran Wang Heshun, people in the Tongmenghui were inexplicably astonished and jumped out to challenge: (Chen Jiongming) These revolutionaries are all money-minded. Why not make it official?It is really incomprehensible to contain the four characters of evil heart, and these four characters are the common language used to weave human crimes in the old days of captives. If you study the legal principles, you will never admit it.

The revolutionaries shouted loudly: today's chaos is not Wang Heshun's fault.

If it wasn't Wang Heshun's fault, whose fault was it?

After Chen Jiongming pondered over this issue, he sent his general Wu Xiangda with 2500 people to arrive in Shantou on a British warship to kill Xu Xueqiu, the leader of the People's Army and a member of the Restoration Society. This person was in charge of implementing Sun Wen's uprising. In the past, it's time to leave.

Chen Jiongming killed Wang Heshun of the League Association first, and then Xu Xueqiu of the Guangfu Association, and he offended all the revolutionaries.But at this time, that mischievous reporter Chen Tingxiang jumped out again and wrote an article to complain for Wang Heshun.Chen Jiongming immediately closed the newspaper and shot reporter Chen Tingxiang.

The U.S. Consulate in Guangzhou at that time reported Chen Jiongming’s achievements in governing Guangdong, saying:
He (Chen Jiongming) has a reliable regular army of 5000, and currently has 500 to [-] civilian troops in Guangzhou, and the disbanded civilian army is about [-].The government does not know the true number of militiamen. These bandit chiefs falsely report their numbers in order to get more military pay. For example, they report [-] people to the government, but the actual number is [-].Considering the limited materials in Chen Dudu's hands, and the fact that he himself has never held a management position, it can be said that it is a miracle that Guangzhou can live a peaceful life.

However, what the Yankees don't know is that Chen Jiongming's price for governing Guangzhou is that his reputation has been ruined.Offended the League, offended the Restoration Association, offended the newspaper industry - in this world, there are few people who want to kill him?

On April 1912, 4, Sun Wen, the great revolutionary leader, arrived in Guangzhou and received a warm welcome.

That day, Chen Jiongming fled to Hong Kong.

04 die old guy

After Sun Wen arrived in Guangzhou, he delivered an important speech, briefly saying:

When the brothers arrived in Hong Kong, they heard that someone wanted to implement the second party order (revolution) in an attempt to overthrow the Guangdong government. Such actions are not only related to the safety of Guangdong, but actually concern the entire Republic of China.Guangdong is a member of the whole country, and if there is a disaster, the whole country will be affected.If the generation is in trouble, the Beijing government will definitely send troops to the south to protect the overall situation, and the provinces will help each other.It is really a blessing in Sangzi that Guangdong does not need a soldier to achieve its goal anyway.However, the military government has not been established for a long time, and the general greedy people want to use the name of the second revolution to destroy the overall situation of Guangdong.If we don't rush to maintain and plan the current emergency, I am afraid that the disaster will be seen in an instant, and it will be too late to try to remedy it...

The spirit of Mr. Sun Wen’s speech can be summed up simply: stability, stability, and the most important political work at present is stability. Anyone who wants to start a second revolution is doing so under the banner of a sacred name, but they want to destroy the hard-won stability. The great situation of unity is just a way to get a vote for yourself.

In a word, whoever wants to destabilize or start a second revolution, we will resolutely fight him to the end!
After his speech, Sun Wen once again strongly recommended Hu Hanmin as the governor of Guangdong.

Hu Hanmin finally took office, and the first thing after taking office was to get rid of Chen Shaobai.

Her husband, Chen Shaobai, is Sun Wen's childhood playmate, and he is the most intelligent person, with many tricks and tricks.At the same time, he was also the earliest supporter of Sun Wen's revolution, and has been taking care of Hong Kong and Guangdong affairs for Sun Wen for many years.The former Chen Jiongming acted as the governor of Guangdong Province and set up a consultation department in the governor's mansion. Chen Shaobai was the minister. His daily work was to call his colleagues to discuss the work of the day before going to work.

After Hu Hanmin took office, he first abolished the Consultation Department where Chen Shaobai was the minister.

What a shrewd person Chen Shaobai was, he immediately knew that his childhood confidant Sun Wen was shuffling the cards and purging those old courtiers who had lost their vitality.The veterans who fought bloody battles died or fled. Although I was Sun Wen's childhood playmate, it seems that revolution doesn't recognize playmates, so let's get out of here.

Chen Shaobai offered to resign.

Hu Hanmin withheld the letter of resignation and did not allow Chen Shaobai to resign.Chen Shaobai felt tenderness in his heart, could it be that Sun Wen wanted to arrange a decent position for himself because of his childhood friendship?Then he tentatively asked: Is the military government planning to set up a new department?

Hu Hanmin said with a smile: Most of the existing departments will be abolished, how can it be possible to set up new ones?
Chen Shaobai wondered in his heart: Then what do you mean, do you want to restore my negotiation department?
Hu Hanmin said with a smile: How can the departments that have been abolished be restored?

Chen Shaobai was even more confused: You don't set up a new department, you don't restore my consultation department, why do you keep me here?
Hu Hanmin said with a smile: You are an old revolutionary. Although you have no position now, I think you should take the world first and not consider personal gains and losses... In short, you should be a clerk under me...

At that time, Chen Shaobai was furious: throwing away your mother, driving me away, and playing with me again, you Hu Hanmin are really annoying.

Chen Shaobai left in anger, but Hu Hanmin delivered an important speech, saying: To be a governor today, you must have the qualifications of a diamond, and you must not be a governor with a bodhisattva heart.After saying this, he immediately sent the warship Baobi to Hong Kong to welcome back Chen Jiongming who had fled. The governor still wanted Chen Jiongming to do it.All the work of offending people is handed over to Chen Jiongming.

It was reasonable to bring Chen Jiongming back. After all, it is not easy to find someone like Old Chen who is willing to offend the world for Sun Wen.However, Hu Hanmin served as the governor for two days, but it was an inexplicable strange event in history. As the governor, he did one thing, drove out the revolutionary veteran Chen Shaobai, and then put down the pick.

In fact, Xu Xueqiu was killed, Wang Heshun was expelled, Chen Shaobai was expelled, and another revolutionary veteran Guan Renfu was also forced to flee this time.This series of events marked Sun Wen's new layout for the Chinese revolution, and it was Sun Wen's long-term consideration for the soon-to-be-established Kuomintang.

A new combination requires new blood.Go to hell, old guys!

It's that simple.

05Parliamentary Politics Bullshit

After the Guangdong side was settled, Sun Wen led more than a dozen people and happily rushed to Beijing to have a historic meeting with Yuan Shikai.

On Yuan Shikai's side, compared with Guangzhou and Wuchang, it was three points more lively. Many congressmen gathered in the Senate and the House of Representatives every day, arguing and scolding each other, and fighting together.
