"Click... Click... The sound of the patrolman walking echoed through the long corridor, and the sound stopped when it reached the cell door, and after a series of key crashes, a key was inserted into the lock, and with a "click", the door "squeaked............ Bang" was opened, and the light of the horse lantern shone into the prison, and Wang Jitong, who was pretending to sleep, opened his eyes.

A red-headed seal catcher is carrying two horse lanterns, there is a foreigner and a general secretary standing behind him, the foreigner nodded at the seal catch, and after taking a horse lamp, the seal caught and went out, only foreigners and general history are left in the prison, the foreigner is in his thirties, but his face is gloomy, his nose is very high, but the bottom of the high nose bridge is hooked.

"Is King Mister right?" The foreigner spoke to Tongshi in English, and Tongshi was translated again.

Wang Jitong was still looking at this foreigner with a gloomy face, and in him, he could feel a special smell, this smell was very familiar to him, and he also had it in himself, and when he was manipulating a qiē in the small attic of his Wan'anli, it was also this smell. Wang Jitong got up and stood and arched his hand to the foreigner, but did not speak.

While he was looking at the foreigner, the foreigner was also looking at him. After all, in the eyes of the outside world, it is he and not Yang Rui who will be known to the outside world. "I am Mr. Gavint," the foreigner introduced himself, "and from what we have learned, the Revival Society is smuggling arms on a large scale, which the Bureau of Industry and the British Government do not want to see, so I hope that Mr. Wang will put an end to this dangerous business and hand over the remaining arms, which is a worthwhile thing for us and for you." ”

Sure enough, it was the trouble caused by the arms. Wang Ji's guess in Tongxin suddenly became clear, and he said, "Mr. Gai, I don't know what Your Excellency said. The contemptible man has been imprisoned here since he passed through Wan'anli in the afternoon, and no one has explained the reason to the contemptible man. ”

Wang Jitong didn't know what to ask according to the lawyer's instructions, but his behavior didn't have any effect on Gai Winter, "Mr. Wang, I hope we can negotiate openly and honestly." I have no prejudice against your revolution, but the British government does not welcome any riots in the Yangtze River valley, so. You should not smuggle arms into this area. ”

Wang Jitong wanted to answer this man named Gai Went and said, 'You can't control the Chinese revolution in China,' but considering the current situation. He still replied: "I still don't know what Mr. Gai said. Then he sat on the bed and closed his eyes and said nothing.

Gai Winter had long known that Wang Jitong was very difficult. Seeing him like this, he said again: "We have arrested many members of the Fuxing Society, in fact, including the former political offender Zhang Taiyan, and one of your leaders, who was also injured when he fled, I think he should not live long." By the way, all your affairs are under investigation, although the fire is very fierce in Wananli. But there are still a lot of things left, Mr. Wang. If you still don't cooperate, then the Ministry of Industry and the British government will comprehensively suppress the Renaissance Council, and I don't think that's what you want to see. ”

When Gai Went said, "There is also one of your leaders, who was also injured when he escaped, ...... Wang Jitong's closed eyes suddenly opened, if Uncle Mei was arrested, then the injured people would not become, he wanted to ask who was injured by this foreigner, but just wanted to open his mouth but saw a sneer on the corner of Gai Winter's mouth, and he held back at the moment. If an American, a German, a Frenchman, or a Russian told him that, then he would believe it, but when he was confronted with an Englishman, he couldn't believe it.

These Saxons, who are extremely polite even in killing, are the most insidious and cunning. As for what he said, 'the Ministry of Industry and the British government have comprehensively suppressed something', Wang Jitong believes it or not, and when a cannon fires in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River that day and the whole country is occupied by the Renaissance Society, the British should not suppress it but be neutral, or in the name of supporting the revolution to obtain greater benefits. The key to supporting or not supporting is to look at the shape and interests, and it is not something that one person can assert a few years ago.

When Wang Jitong couldn't help but say nothing, Gai Winter really began to be disappointed. When Wang Jitong opened his eyes just now, he felt that he had succeeded, but he didn't want Wang Jitong to stop talking, so he stopped talking stiffly. In fact, he didn't know much about the Revival Society, and most of the information came from Kotaro Munakata, and most of Kotaro Munakata's information came from the Alliance.

Combined with the information of Kotaro Munakata, the Fuxing Society known to Major Gaiwent, like other anti-Qing organizations, was an anti-Qing group composed of scholars, who was probably founded in 19o3, and the guild was called Yang Jingcheng, and Wang Jitong in front of him was also a key member of this organization. During the Russo-Japanese War, the Fuxing Society sent people deep into the northeast to fight the Russians, thus gaining a high reputation and influence among the Qing Revolutionary Party, but when the Qing government was preparing to implement the constitution, there were rumors that this organization supported the constitution, and their backbone member Cai joined a constitutional organization, the Constitutional Friendship Association, and some time ago broke away from the China Education Association, which he had presided over for many years, and affirmed that he had nothing to do with the Education Association in the future.

Of course, these are only superficial situations, according to the information from Kotaro Munakata's side, the constitution of the Revival Society is just a disguise to protect themselves, and they are actually trying their best to plan a riot, and the guns that have been smuggled recently are the weapons prepared by the Revival Society for the riot. Sir Hoppelan did not like large-scale riots in the Yangtze River valley, which would hurt innocent foreigners if left unchecked, and, more importantly, if they did, commerce would likely be interrupted, which would affect British commercial interests, and if commercial interests were damaged, then customs revenues would be reduced, which happened to be an important source of reparations in 19o1. In other words, not only the interests of British businessmen were damaged, but also the vested interests of the British government. This is by no means what Chinese diplomats want to see, and considering the trade deficit of more than 160 million taels of silver a year, even the mobilization of troops to suppress the riot is also what the bigwigs of Downing Street would like to see.

This is the logic of the British suppression of the revolution. According to this logic, if the revival would have rioted in Shandong, Shanxi, North Manchuria, Mongolia, etc., it was what Gavant wanted to see, but they did not do it. They are now bent on the Shanghai Concession and then on plotting a riot in the Yangtze River Valley.

"Mr. Wang, you will definitely regret your refusal today!" Major Gavin looked at Wang Jitong, who was silent, and was helpless, and finally threw a cruel word, seeing that Wang Jitong was still silent, he had to turn around and walk out of the cell, but he was angry when he went out. kicked hard at the iron door, and with a "bang", it seemed that the entire old patrol room could hear it.

Major Gawin came out of the cell in a huff. He did not go to the political prisoner again, but went back to his residence and slept for a while, and the next morning he sent someone to find the representative of the Qing State Government, Ying, and now it was Yang Jingcheng, the president of the Revival Association, who escaped. If you can catch him. That's a lot easier.

"Yes, haven't you found anyone yet?" Major Gaiwent looked at Ying Guixin who came and asked, Hua Zhu and Ying Guixin were doing the search, but Hua Zhu found nothing.

"Mr. Guy Winter, we're looking for someone, but the mud bridge is too big, and it was night yesterday, so it's hard to find someone. Now less than half of the places have been searched during the day. Because of inaccurate information, Ying Guixin was scolded by this foreigner yesterday. But the foreigner soared, he could only carry it, but when he went back at night, he also scolded Liu Guanghan, "Mr. Gai Winter, since Yang Jingcheng is injured, I'm afraid he won't live tomorrow." ”

"Nope. I need him alive. "Only if he is alive can we find out where the munitions came from and where they went. ”

"Yes, yes. We all want him alive. "Ying Guixin was stunned by Chen Qimei, and she only wanted Yang to die, forgetting the purpose of the foreigner." Master Gaiwent, since last night, the people of the Revival Society have also searched for Yang Jingcheng, I will solve them in the afternoon, and I can find Yang Jingcheng tomorrow. He looked bold in front of foreigners, patting his chest.

"Good. Then I'll wait for your good news. Major Gawint, whose face had been tense for a day, smiled, he liked such a Qing man.

Ying Guixin patted her chest in front of Lord Yang, but she was not so sure in her heart, as soon as she returned to the county ya, she wanted to send more people to search, but before she sat down, Mi Zhanyuan, the secret agent of the governor of Liangjiang, came, "Lord Duanfang wants to arrest these criminals immediately." With that, he handed over a list.

He said that it was Lord Duanfang, but in fact, he wanted to arrest it himself. Ying Guixin took a look at it, and now most of the list is in the concession, so she couldn't help patting her head and saying, "Brother Mi, there are a lot of these people in the concession." ”

"Then catch the outside of the concession first. I don't care about the concession first. Mi Zhanyuan said, "Also, don't say it's from the Revival Society, just say it's a revolutionary party." ”

"Revival? Revolutionary party? Good, good. "Ying Guixin didn't know that the Fuxing Society would sweep away the face of Lord Zai Ze, who had just changed from the Duke of Zhenguo to Baylor, just a confused promise.

Seeing that he agreed, Mi Zhanyuan said goodbye and went to prison. At the time of the British operation yesterday afternoon, several revival members were also arrested and are now being tortured in prison. As soon as Mi Zhanyuan entered the prison door, he didn't hear the sound of torture, but heard the voice inside: "God has the virtue of a good life, and the court doesn't want to kill more!" Governor Duanfang also often said that revolution and constitutionalism are the same thing, before the revolution came first, but now, it is constitutionalism first, is it still necessary to revolution? You see, so many people I just told you have since taken their own lives, and there are a few of them who are seriously responsible, and all the adults have been pardoned, and the talented ones have already been promoted to become officials, and there are such benevolent adults, do you still have to decide to die? ”

The one who spoke was a staff member of the Governor's Mansion from Nanjing, surnamed Wang, whose name was Jeff, probably because he couldn't get out of the Governor's Palace, and he came to Shanghai to say that he wanted to surrender the revolutionary party.

Seeing that the revolutionary party in front of him did not speak, Wang Jiefu understood that his will was a little soft, and said: "Yeats, Brother Ling and Lord Ling Tang will go to Shanghai tomorrow...... It is not easy for her old man to work hard for you to study. How would she feel if she saw you like that? Alas...... Really, pity the hearts of parents all over the world. ”

As soon as he heard that his mother and brother had been taken by the government, Yeats immediately screamed. The chains on his body were also wrenched, "It's kind of rushing at me, why do you want to involve your family." Kill me! ”

"Lord Lingtang just came to see you, I sent a telegram to invite them, but I didn't arrest them. Ye Zhifeng, you should think about how to explain your absurdity when you meet Lord Lingtang tomorrow. "Be patient with the revolutionary party, and when Wang Jiefu saw that his words were valid, he didn't say anything more. Instead, let the prison warrior next to him take Yeats down to him.

Mi Zhanyuan watched Jeff Wang take a leisurely moment, and stepped forward and said half-sincerely and half-cheerfully: "Mr. has worked hard." The fact that these revolutionary parties were able to abandon the darkness and turn to the light should be the work of gentlemen. ”

Hearing this, Jeff Wang laughed and said, "This is not my work. It's the wise decision of the noon marshal. The revolutionary party really can't be killed, it's like a weed, burning and digging up the roots can't stop its spread, so it must be soft and hard. Flip to deal with. ”

"Mr. Wang. We have also surrendered before, but they would rather die than surrender. "Mi Zhanyuan has been in Shanghai for a long time, and he knows that there was a Zhi Da who had arrested the revolutionary party before, but in the end he couldn't recruit him, so he had to kill him.

"Ai, this trick is also about the right time, place and people. A few years ago, Japan and Russia went to war in the northeast, and the people were struggling to make a living, and the national prestige did not exist. The general trend is in the revolutionary party; But now, the Holy Monarch has returned to his throne. The general trend of constitutionalism and parliamentary meetings is mine; Such a desire of the people should be the first. Moreover, most of this revolutionary party are people who are not afraid of death, but this kind of people are also patriotic people, and the deeper the love, the more hatred there is. Wang Jiefu said that his strategy of surrender was the first to say, and he inadvertently began to show off his experience to Mi Zhanyuan, "Now Wu Shuai, in accordance with the edict of the imperial court, has changed the method of pardoning the revolutionaries to the self-law of the revolutionaries, and will also establish introspection institutes everywhere, so that as long as the revolutionary party is arrested, it will be self-defeating." ”

"Revolutionaries are self-legal? Introspection House? Mi Zhanyuan didn't understand this thing at all, and he asked, "Mr. Wang, can this be useful?" ”

"Of course it works!" Wang Jiefu touched his beard, a smug look, "As long as one of the revolutionary parties is lowered, then it will confess a large list, and in this big list, there will always be some friends with the one who surrendered." If we let the revolutionary party that has been surrendered to lobby for it, we will certainly be able to get twice the result with half the effort. You see, those people who were arrested in the afternoon, except for this Yeats Peak, as soon as the others saw Liu Guanghan descend, they all descended. This is like dragging melon seedlings, touching melons along the vine, and then uprooting. ”

Wang Jeff said that he was grasping it in his hand, but it was really indecent for his short and fat body to make such an action, Mi Zhanyuan laughed secretly in his heart, so he had to tell the news he had heard when he went out before, "Sir, according to rumors, the Revival Association will be held in the near future, I wonder if these revolutionary parties have mentioned this?" ”

"Something?" Jeff Wang came back to his senses from the excitement of surrendering and said, "Oh. There are several people who have mentioned it, but they are all vague. By the way, this Yeats Feng knows a lot of things, if he pries open his mouth tomorrow, then ......"

"Sir, Wu Shuai has already learned that the Alliance and the Japanese Governor will have a plan to raise events, saying that they will hold events in the near future, and this revival meeting is said to be also moving, and the time is set for these two or three days. But the time is known, but the where-place things are not known. The most important thing now is to know where they are going to go. ”

Sun Wen, the prime minister of the League, is actually a stockbroker, and the revolution under his leadership is actually a routine of IPO, opening, and listing, and every time he moves something, he has to raise funds among overseas Chinese, and if he wants to raise funds, he always has to tell the "business plan" one or two, and in order to prove that the "business plan" is feasible, then many key elements of the support plan must also be clearly told to the "investors", so as to enhance their confidence in investing.

As for the things told by overseas investors, in fact, they are top-secret information that should be strictly guarded, but Sun Wen no longer cares about any top-secret and non-secret information for the sake of "offering shares"; as long as overseas Chinese want to hear it, he will say that it is through this channel that Duanfang, the governor of Liangjiang, knows about the many actions of the revolutionaries.

Hearing that Mi Zhanyuan said that the matter was urgent, Wang Jiefu thought about it for a long time before he said: "Since you know that the uprising is within two or three days, then you can deceive this Yeats Peak, but the premise is that he wants to know the details of the incident." ”

"Fraud?" Mi Zhanyuan said, "What if I can't cheat it? ”

"Well, then it can only be a matter of luck, and it is better to do it tomorrow after his brother and mother come. Hey, I'm afraid that there won't be enough time, and I just asked here, and I raised things over there, and it was in vain to ask. "Jeff Wang can recruit these revolutionary parties. However, surrender was a meticulous task, and there was no need to rush at all, and the most important thing was to keep the revolutionary party in prison for two days. being severely tortured; Then live in the reflection house for two days, and enjoy a comfortable day for two days, and so on, a hell, a heaven, and a sharp contrast can have an effect.

When Mi Zhanyuan saw him like this, he also felt that this matter was in a hurry. Then he said: "Mr. Wang, once you ask something tomorrow, then hurry up and send a telegram to Wu Shuai." Then Wu Shuai strategized to quell the rebellion of the revolutionary party. ”

Searching, surrendering, and arresting ...... were the actions of the Manchu government; Disconnection, transfer, and evacuation ...... this is Cai Yuanpei's response. It's just that the Manchu Qing Dynasty is not only in Shanghai. Jiangsu, Anqing, and Wuchang were also arresting the revolutionary party. The reason for this was not entirely because the revolutionary party wanted to take action, but because the governors of various localities wanted to express to the capital that the localities were unstable, and that the hasty dismissal of the governors was extremely inappropriate for the stability of the localities.

It's only been two days since Huo Burning Ass sat in the position of interim president, but Cai Yuanpei felt like two years had passed. He watched Wang Jitong and Yang Rui deal with these things before, and he was lightweight. But when it comes to him, it is as important as a weight. In the two days after the search in Wan'anli, what he did was mainly to save people and arrange for the incident. But it is extremely difficult to save people, Zhang Taiyan was found an excuse by the Ministry of Industry and Bureau, and he was imprisoned in the West Prison, and Wang Jitong did not say bail, but he was not allowed to meet, and Yang Rui, Mu Xiangyao's Tek and Hu Wenyao's bag inquired, and fought with a group of Manchu spies at Nicheng Bridge, although he won the battle on his side, but the dead man did not say, and more than a dozen people were arrested by the patrol room, and the most important thing is that he searched for two days in a row, and there was no trace of Yang Rui, especially in the end, the news of Yang Rui's injury came out, It made it even more difficult for him to sleep.

In particular, the guns and ammunition of the insurrectionary troops were extremely insufficient, and the troops of 3,000 people only had 15,600 firearms that could be used, except for 1,000 regular military rifles, the others were long-eliminated single-needle guns and hunting firearms, and the ammunition was also insufficient, and each rifle was equipped with no more than 130 bullets. As for the arms shipped from South Africa last month, they have now reached the sea off Ningbo, but after the Shanghai arms incident broke out, Wang Jitong did not dare to order them to unload their goods in Shanghai, so he could only stop and wait at a hidden place in Ningbo.

There is also the situation in the imperial court is becoming clearer and clearer, the mutiny of the Beiyang armies, with the loosening of Guangxu's handling of Yuan Shikai, the capital Nanyuan and Baoding have been pacified, as for the fourth town of Machang in Qingxian County and the fifth town in Jining, Shandong, I am afraid that they will also be persuaded to stop in recent days. I am afraid that the situation of chaos in the center and chaos in the whole country will not appear, but even so, Cai Yuanpei is a little difficult to ride a tiger, and he advocated it, now the troops have been assembled in the place, and they will start fighting early tomorrow morning, and now they shout to withdraw, which is extremely harmful to morale; In addition, he set the slogan of "resisting taxes and water, photovoltaic Huaxia" in accordance with Ao Jiaxiong's construction - if he really does not act righteously, then these people who have moved will probably no longer believe in the revival society in the future.

"Sir, the General Staff is now beginning to take over command of the rebel troops." On the evening of the second day after Wan Anli's arrest, looking at Cai Yuanpei, who was anxious under the kerosene lamp, Shao Lizi said softly.

"Oh? They commanded? Cai Yuanpei didn't understand the smooth operation of the Revival Army, and thought that this matter was commanded by him, the interim president.

"Yes, they command specific operations." Shao Lizi also asked Chen Guangshou, who had been on hunger strike for two days, to find out about these things, "That is to say, the orders here are given to the General Staff, and the General Staff will be given to the officers of each unit." ”

"Oh. Does this mean that all the affairs of the army are subject to the general staff? Cai Yuanpei didn't understand the military system designed by Yang Rui, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

"No, Guangshou said, the army is actually the three major systems, for the General Staff, the General Rear Department, and the General Political Department," Shao Lizi read this strange name, and explained to Cai Yuanpei: "The General Staff is the General Staff, it is said that Germany has it, and it is specialized in commanding the troops to fight. The General Logistics Department is the General Logistics Department, which mainly supplies food, salaries and ammunition, and Zhu Luhe is responsible; The General Politics is the General Political Department, and Zhang Chengyue is in charge of Zhejiang. ”

"Oh......" Cai Yuanpei replied quietly, "Since it is the rule in the army, then leave it to them." But every progress in Zhejiang has to be reported to us. He finally demanded. (To be continued......)
