Lin Daxin received the Qinghe Pontianak agreement that surprised him, and immediately went to send a telegram to Li Hongzhang to express his gratitude, worthy of Li Zhongtang, the veteran will come out, and everyone can top a field division, oh, even more, the soldiers snatched Lan Fang from the Dutch without blood, is there anything more murderous in Comrade Li?

In the early morning of February 26, 1902, some officers and soldiers of the 2nd Association of the 19th Town of the Fujian New Army launched an uprising in Zhangzhou, Fujian. Top Novel, www.

At the beginning of the uprising, the officers and soldiers of the 19th Town 2nd Association loyal to the Qing Dynasty launched a surprise attack, and after a not fierce battle, the officers and soldiers of the uprising controlled the entire 2nd Association, and after clearing the diehards, the 2nd Association of more than 3,500 people suffered little loss, and there were still more than 3,200 people.

Then the rebel troops launched an attack on the patrol battalion station in Zhangzhou City and the government of Zhangzhou Prefecture, with the weapons and combat effectiveness of the new army, it did not take much effort to defeat the patrol battalion in Zhangzhou City that resisted with old-fashioned single-shot rifles, the patrol battalion of Zhangzhou City was only less than 600 people, a small part of the battlefield revolted, most of them were captured by the rebel troops, and then the government was also captured, but before the government was breached, Shi Zhanrong, the prefect of Zhangzhou Prefecture, committed suicide by swinging his sword, and his wife and his two daughters under the age of 16 also hanged themselves.

After the entire city of Zhangzhou was controlled by the rebel forces, Wang Heshun, the pipe leader of the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Biao of the 2nd Association, who was elected as the commander-in-chief of the rebel troops, telegraphed the whole country and announced the recovery of Zhangzhou. The Fujian Military Government was established and the Fujian Revolutionary Army was formed. In the near future, the Fujian Revolutionary Army will march to Fuzhou and other parts of Fujian to completely recover Fujian Province.

The Zhangzhou rebels proposed to expel the Tartars. The slogan of the restoration of China and the establishment of the United Government, that is, the slogan of the Xingzhonghui, clearly indicates that the uprising was under the leadership of the Huaxinghui.

The uprising in Zhangzhou was absolutely earth-shattering for the Qing court, and the Qing court immediately ordered Xu Yingqi, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, to transfer troops to exterminate the rebellious new army, after all, Xu Yingqi had 3 towns and 7 associations in his hands, and only 1 association rebelled, and Xu Yingqi also had 6 associations of the new army, which should be enough to exterminate the rebellious new army.

But not more than 2 days. There was another news that made people stunned, the 1st Association of 19 Towns that was preparing to go to Zhangzhou to quell the rebellion had not yet set off from Fuzhou, and some of the new officers and soldiers and some officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion in Fuzhou City had launched an uprising, but fortunately, the strength of the 1st Association of the Xingzhong Society and the Party in 19 Towns was not as strong as the 2nd Association, and the strength of the patrol battalion of the Xingzhong Society and the Party in Fuzhou City was also insufficient, and Xu Yingqi, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, had long been wary of the new army, and the uprising in Fuzhou was not successful, but after a bloody battle. Originally, there were 4,500 people in the 1st Association of 19 Towns, and there were less than 2,500 people left who had combat effectiveness, and they were no longer able to suppress the rebels in Zhangzhou.

Xu Yingqi, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, was relieved that there were less than 2,500 people left in the 1st Association of 19 towns. In any case, by taking advantage of this mutiny, the members of the Xingzhong Association and the Hui Party in the 1st Association of 19 Towns were cleared out, plus the Fuzhou patrol battalion of more than 1,000 people. There was no problem in holding Fuzhou, so Xu Yingqi prepared to mobilize the 20 towns of the Zhejiang New Army. Come to Fujian to exterminate the rebels.

The Zhejiang New Army is also the establishment of 1 town, which was named the 20th town of the Great Fresh Army. The number of troops is much more than that of the 19th town, with 12,000 people in the town, divided into 3 associations, each with about 4,000 people.

More than 300 officers and soldiers of the 1st Association of 19 towns and more than 100 officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion of the uprising fought out of Fuzhou City and withdrew to the direction of Zhangzhou to prepare for the 2nd Association Division of the Zhangzhou Uprising.

The 19th Township 2nd Cooperative Uprising Force, now called the Fujian Revolutionary Army, after taking control of Zhangzhou, did not sit idle, and took advantage of the opportunity when the Qing Army did not enter the suppression for the time being, and quickly dispatched troops to occupy Zhangpu County, Pinghe County, Nanjing County, Longhai County, and Changtai County around Zhangzhou, and the area of control was suddenly swelled a lot, and the Fujian Revolutionary Army incorporated the patrol battalions of various counties, and expanded the army on a large scale, and waited for more than 300 officers and soldiers of the 1st Association Uprising in 19 Towns and more than 100 officers and soldiers of the uprising patrol battalion to retreat into the territory controlled by the Fujian Revolutionary ArmyThe Fujian Revolutionary Army has snowballed to 14,000 people in the three associations, and the officers and soldiers of Fuzhou who failed in the uprising have been dispersed into the three associations, increasing the number of veterans of each association.

However, although the Fujian Revolutionary Army came up with three associations at once, but the combat effectiveness did not dare to compliment, the original officers and soldiers of the new army and the patrol battalion were fine, how can they be regarded as having undergone long-term training, and most of the expandable people are members of the party, that is, members of various gangs, are ordinary people who have not been trained, and it is okay to fight in peacetime, but if they go to the battlefield, even Wang Heshun, commander-in-chief of the Fujian Revolutionary Army, has no bottom in his heart, so he can only pay close attention to training.

In addition, the weapons and ammunition of the Fujian Revolutionary Army are also very lacking, the 2nd Association of 19 Towns is stationed in Zhangzhou, and there is not much of a reserve of weapons and ammunition itself, and the rifles are just enough for the 2nd Association of 19 Towns, and now with single-shot rifles, the Fujian Revolutionary Army has 14,000 people, and less than half of them are equipped with guns, and many soldiers who have newly joined the Fujian Revolutionary Army can only be equipped with broadswords and spears, these cold weapons.

Lin Daxin knew that Xingzhonghui, a few years ago, that is, Lin Daxin had just become the governor of the four northeastern provinces, a group of overseas Chinese young people from the Americas who came to the northeast wrote a plan to Lin Daxin, knowing that he could overthrow the Qing Dynasty and establish a United Government similar to the United States, with Lin Daxin serving as the first president of the United Government.

However, at that time, Lin Daxin was busy immigrating from Guannai to the four northeastern provinces, and he did not consider the glorious cause of overthrowing the Qing Dynasty, even if he really wanted to overthrow the Qing Dynasty, he could not establish any United Government, Lin Daxin did not want to be the president, he thought that if he reached that point, he would have to let himself live the emperor's addiction!

Later, Lin Daxin asked people to send these overseas Chinese young people out of the country, although Lin Daxin was not ready to rebel, but he was not prepared to embarrass these progressive young people with ideals, and at the same time, Lin Daxin did not want them to spread any revolutionary ideas in their own territory, so they had to let them go, but Lin Daxin did not know that these overseas Chinese young people had a good man. Among the signatures on that plan is Sun Deming, and this Sun Deming also has a name named Sun Wen.

Sun Deming is an alias for Sun Wen. is the father of the Republic of China, who is very famous in history, but how did Lin Daxin know that Sun Deming is Sun Wen! If only Lin Daxin knew. must find a way to get him under his command, let him be responsible for repairing the railway, in history Sun Wen shouted to build a 200,000-mile railway, but unfortunately by mistake, Sun Wen embarked on the old road of history again.

After Sun Wen left the Northeast with those overseas Chinese youths, he was very disappointed in Lin Daxin, thinking that Lin Daxin was also a Manchu lackey such as a warlord, so at the initiative of Sun Wen, these overseas Chinese youths formed a Xingzhong Society with the goal of overthrowing the Manchus. Sun Wen served as the president, that is, the leader of the rebellion.

Lin Daxin's policies and ideas subtly affected the ordinary people of the entire Qing Dynasty, and the people of the Qing Dynasty became more and more dissatisfied with the Qing Dynasty, from Lin Daxin's short period of less than 8 years, nearly 100 million people immigrated in the provinces of Guannai, it can be seen that the Qing Dynasty has become more and more unpopular, the homeland is difficult to leave, and most of the immigrants are living too difficult and have to seek change.

The Xingzhong Society also took advantage of the Qing Dynasty to make the common people more and more dissatisfied with the Qing Dynasty. The rapid development and growth, and the alliance with the Tiandihui, the Elders' Association, and the Hongmen Old Sect, were able to plant a lot of forces in the new army and patrol battalions in the southern provinces, and also made the new army uprising in Zhangzhou, Fujian successful.

Lin Daxin looked at the information sent by the Military Intelligence Bureau. I don't think that the Zhangzhou uprising of the Xingzhonghui can have any impact, and the Qing Dynasty has not experienced the Treaty of Shimonoseki and the Xinchou Treaty as it has done in history, and has paid huge amounts of silver to the great powers. The foundation of the Qing Dynasty is still relatively solid, and there is also silver to train the new army. So that the Qing Dynasty now has a new army of no small size.

Not to mention that the combat effectiveness of the Qing Dynasty is second only to the 4 towns of the Dingbei Army, the 1st to the 4th towns of the Wuwei Army and the 6th town of the Great Fresh Army, and the 5th to 10th towns of the Beiyang Army and the Great Fresh Army. 3 The 11th to 13th towns of the Great Fresh Army of the Calm Martial Army were the Qing court's efforts to deal with Lin Daxin, so that the Qing provinces, especially the southern provinces, organized and trained a large number of new troops.

At present, the three provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui, and Jiangxi under the jurisdiction of Liu Kunyi, the governor of Liangjiang, have organized and trained the 14th, 15th, and 16th towns of the Great Fresh Army, each with a strength of 20,000 troops, and the two provinces of Hunan and Hubei, under the jurisdiction of Zhang Zhidong, the governor of Huguang, have organized and trained the 17th and 18th towns of the Great Fresh Army, and the strength of each town is also 20,000. The new army in Liangjiang and Huguang is no worse than the equipment and training of the first 13 towns, but the number is a little less, and it is the strongest combat effectiveness in the Daqing army except for the first 13 towns.

In addition, Cen Chunxuan, the governor of Guangzhou, governed Guangdong and Guangxi provinces, and organized the 22nd town and the 23rd town of the Great Fresh Army, and the 23rd town had more than 10,000 people, but the 22nd town because of the sufficient local taxes in Guangdong, and trained 30,000 troops at once, but last year, the Guangzhou uprising organized by the Xingzhong Society was initiated by the backbone of the Xingzhong Society and the party in the 22nd town, although the Guangzhou uprising failed in the end, but the 22nd town was hit hard, and the officers and soldiers of the 22nd town, who were comrades-in-arms, fought each other, and the original 30,000 people were comparable to the elite of the first 13 towns, There are less than 16,000 left, weapons and equipment are even more lost, most of the artillery was blown up, even after more than half a year, the 22nd town has not yet eased.

In addition, there is the 23rd town of the Great Fresh Army trained by the Governor of Sichuan Xiliang in Sichuan, with a strength of about 15,000 people, and Wang Wenshao, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, governs the two provinces of Yunnan and Guizhou, but the local financial difficulties of the two provinces, although the 24th and 25th towns of the Great Fresh Army are also organized, but the two towns together are less than 10,000 people, and the weapons are outdated, and most of them are equipped with single-shot rifles. Shengyun, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, governed the two provinces of Shaanxi and Gansu, and established the last two towns of the Qing Dynasty, the 26th and 27th towns of the Great Fresh Army, but Shengyun, who faced the same predicament as Wang Wenshao, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, made enough efforts to make the new army of the two towns add up to 15,000 people, and the equipment is even inferior to the 24th and 25th towns of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces.

Xu Yingqi, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, organized and trained the 19th, 20th, and 21st towns of the Great Fresh Army in the three provinces of Fujian, Zhejiang, and Taiwan, and although Xu Yingqi, the 19th town of Fujian, can only control less than 2,500 people, and the 5,000 new troops in Taiwan's 21st town are separated by the Taiwan Strait, and it is not easy to be transferred to Fujian to quell the chaos. However, the 20th town of Zhejiang has 12,000 new troops equipped with much stronger equipment than the 19th town, which is enough to suppress the uprising of the Xingzhonghui in Zhangzhou, not only Lin Daxin thinks so, but also the Qing court thinks so, so the Qing court knows that the 1st Association of 19 towns has not yet set off from Fuzhou, because of the treacherous rebellion of the Xingzhonghui and the party, the 1st Association of 19 towns suffered heavy losses, so he urgently ordered Xu Yingqi, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, to transfer troops from Zhejiang to quickly exterminate the rebels in Zhangzhou.

Xu Yingqi immediately dispatched the two associations of the 20th town in Zhejiang, led by Liu Danghui, the commander of the 20th town, and entered Fujian in full armor, and Xu Yingqi instructed Liu Danghui to be careful of the troublemaking of the party elements in the Zhongxing Zhonghui in the army, Liu Danghui patted his chest and assured that there was absolutely no problem with his control of the 20th town, even if there were a few elements of the Xingzhong Association and the party, they could not make any big waves.

Then the big guy waited for the news of quelling the rebellion, but the exciting news came soon after, and people's jaws did not fall.

More than 8,000 people in the 20th town of Zhejiang, including two artillery battalions equipped with 12 75 mm mountain guns, entered Fujian Province, went all the way south, and encountered the Fujian Revolutionary Army in Changtai County, Fujian, the battle in the afternoon of the same day, the Qing army of the 20th town had the advantage, broke through the fortifications built by the Fujian Revolutionary Army outside Changtai County, and drove the Fujian Revolutionary Army to Changtai County, and Liu Danghui, the commander of the 20th Town, ordered the whole army to rest for one night, and occupied Changtai County the next day, and then continued to attack south and capture Zhangzhouto suppress the rebellion of the New Army in the 19th Town.

However, Liu Danghui never expected that some of the officers and soldiers he led the two associations were also members of the Xingzhong Association and the Hui Party, and the number of these people was more than he imagined, and these people held a battlefield uprising that night outside Changtai County, and the two associations of the Fujian Revolutionary Army who got the news took the opportunity to rush out of Changshou County to respond to the battlefield uprising of the Xingzhong Association and the members of the Hui Party.

There were more than 400 officers and soldiers in the 20th town and 2 associations to participate in the battlefield uprising, but they were caught off guard, so that the 20th town and 2 associations were completely chaotic, and the thousands of Fujian revolutionary army who rushed over at night shouted the slogan of surrendering their guns and not killing, so that a large number of officers and soldiers of the 20th town gave up resistance, and Liu Danghui, the commander of the 20th town, found that his troops were all in chaos, and if he didn't escape, he should be taken prisoner, so he led less than 200 people to escape from the battlefield, and the resistance of the 20th town completely stopped after Liu Danghui fled.
