Chapter XXVII

The funeral on May 14 shocked all the people present, including the royalists, the Huaxing Society, the Black Dragon Society, and the provincial school supervisors, who knew that the Fuxing Society would use it to advocate revolution, but once they were there, the original vigilance was moved by the sadness and solemnity of the funeral, especially the appearance of the Revival Army, which amazed everyone. Liang Qichao said in Xinmin Cong Bao: "A thousand thoughts, a thousand beaks, the whole country will fight, sit and wait to be cut." However, if there is such a strong army, then China can save ......"

In addition to Liang Qichao's exclamation, the other three parties were all worried, but they did not dare to act rashly, and in the name of the revolutionary comrades association established in December last year, the Huaxing Association sent a message of condolences to Wang Jitong in Shanghai, and made an appointment to come to Beijing to discuss the formation of a national revolutionary organization; After receiving the reports of Hirayama Zhou and Miyazaki, Inukai Takeshi ordered Kotaro Munakata, who was in charge of the East Asian Tongbun Academy in Shanghai, to spy on the internal affairs of the Renaissance Society, in order to try to infiltrate the new revolutionary organization through "support and help", and then use the members of the Black Dragon Society to influence this extremely threatening revolutionary organization; In addition to sending a telegram to Beijing to report the incident, Yang Shu, who was stationed in the Qing Dynasty, made strict negotiations with Japan and strictly controlled the students studying in Japan, so as to control the spread of the revolutionary party among the students studying in Japan.

In the face of the strong rise of the Renaissance Society, various forces in Tokyo are adjusting their policies. However, for ordinary students studying in Japan, things are much simpler. They were either constantly talking about what they saw on the day of the funeral, or they put what they saw and thought into writing, and then sent them to relatives and friends in China with pictures on the front page of the China Times the next day. It can be said that the qiΔ“ that happened in Tokyo is also like the bloody case in Shanghai, rippling into the hearts of every young person.

On the evening of the second day, the revolutionary comrades' meeting met to discuss the joint meeting, and after the meeting, the meeting was adjourned. Huang Xing left Fang Shengtao, the representative of Fujian, behind, and when everyone left, he asked: "Yunsong, do you have any contact with Mr. Baishui?" ”

Fang Shengtao went to Japan to study with his family in 1902, and had a great influence in Fujian compatriots, joined the volunteer team during the anti-Russian movement, and after being disbanded, he and his younger brother Fang Shengdong returned to China from all walks of life, but the experience and contacts of the two of them were extremely scarce, and they did not achieve anything, and when they returned to Tokyo, they formed the Fujian Civilization Society with some familiar fellow villagers. In the great convergence of revolutionary organizations last year. Participated in the revolutionary comrades meeting organized by Huang Xing. It's just that the revolutionaries in this organization thought they were literati, and they wrote a lot of anti-Qing articles, but they did little to do, and the day before yesterday, everyone wanted to join after seeing the majestic posture of the Revival Association, but Liu Kui and others immediately convened a meeting of various organizations in the name of the Revolutionary Comrades Association. It is planned to unite the Revolutionary Comrades Association with the Rejuvenation Society, the Xingzhong Association, and other organizations to form a larger national revolutionary organization.

"Brother Wuwu. Mr. Bai Shui's side is a fellow villager. However, the Renaissance Society is the most disciplined, and when I usually visit, I always talk about trivial matters in my hometown, and I don't talk about anything during the meeting. I see. It will be very difficult to unite with this revival. Fang Shengtao had long planned to cooperate with the Fuxing Society, but the Fuxing Society was focused on outside the Guanxi at that time and did not want to raise righteousness in the Guan. So the two sides did not negotiate.

"The Revival Society is well-organized and cautious, and their president Cheng Cheng is so well planned, which is really the hope of the anti-Qing Dynasty! ......" Huang Xing sighed, in fact, he still has some words left unfinished, according to his original intention is not to care about personal gains and losses, Huaxing will join the revival association in his personal name. However, this proposal was opposed by many people: vice president Liu Kuiyi said that in this way, the Huaxing Society would no longer exist, and the most feasible thing would be to unite with the revolutionary organizations in Japan to become a larger federation, and at the same time retain the Huaxing Society; At the same time, Cheng Jiatai, who often maintained correspondence with Sun Wen, also believed that if a national anti-Qing organization was to be established, then the earliest anti-Qing organization, the Xingzhong Society, should not be omitted, and it was best to participate in it.

The discussion between Huang Xing and Fang Shengtao ended not long after, and what we can do now is to wait for Sun Wen of the Xingzhong Association and Mr. Jing Cheng of the Fuxing Association to arrive in Japan as soon as possible before we can talk about the union. Before that, Huang Xing took out a stack of tickets from the drawer and gave it to Fang Shengtao, and said: "Mr. Youren of the Fuxing Association said that there was a big photo of the revival army's rejection of Russia at the funeral yesterday, but when he saw that there were too many students from outside, he changed it to the back, and here are ten admission tickets for you, and you can go to the Jinhui Hall to watch it at that time." ”

Hearing that there was a large photo of the event, Fang Shengtao was overjoyed, and hurriedly took it, and after counting it, he said: "Hehe, there will be everything in the revival meeting." If you are tired of reading Japanese photos, you should also look at Chinese people. When he said this, he said, "Brother Wuwu, ten is too little, my family... There are many people in our civilized society, can we give more? ”

Huang Xing saw that he liked it, and he also smiled, "No, each club will give less, and I still specially asked Xiaoshi for the ten sheets here." If it's not enough, you can buy a ticket, fifty dollars. ”

"Ahh Fifty bucks? Is this revival a revolution or a trading house? The average large photo is only twenty dollars a game. Fang Shengtao was taken aback by this price, fifty yen is half a foreign dollar in China, which is really outrageous.

Huang Xing saw him like this and said. "You, Xiaoshi said that the money from the sale of admission tickets will be handed over to a martyr's committee, which will be responsible for the burial of martyrs and the support of martyrs' families.

"Voice?!" Fang Shengtao said strangely.

"I haven't been there, I'll find out tomorrow." Huang Xing was also very curious. He had seen the big photos, they were all screened one by one, and before each screening, there would be a person's speech, and he couldn't imagine what it would be like to have a sound.

Everything is over, Fang Shengtao took ten movie tickets to the Fang family apartment in Kanda District, and unlike ordinary international students, he came with his family, including the second sister Jun Ying, the fourth sister-in-law Zeng Xing, his wife Zheng Meng, the eighth sister Jun Ji and the second sister's classmate Miss Cheng, completely rented a house.

Before Fang Shengtao entered the door, his wife Zheng Meng went out to the door, shh ”

"Hmm." He understood his younger brother's impatience very well, he deliberately dragged it out, and only when he saw that he was impatient did he said: "If today's meeting is successful, then the anti-Qing is just around the corner." ”

"Really? …… You say it every time, but every time you don't get anything. Fang Shengdong complained. Even last year's revolutionary comrades' meeting was in name only, and everyone did not contact each other, and there was no anti-Qing action. But the revival will be quiet, I don't know how it has such a momentum. Let's all join the Revival. ”

"Ziming, I originally thought the same way you did. However, many comrades at the meeting today did not agree with such an approach. What you mean is that you have planned everything in the past, and your strength is weak and your success is slim, but if you can unite all the revolutionary organizations. Once the matter is raised, it is tantamount to using the revolutionary forces of the whole country in one place, according to the ...... What is the principle of pressure mentioned in Gewu, this revolution is just around the corner. After all, Fang Shengtao was only twenty years old, and he didn't understand Liu Kuiyi's intention to put forward the joint strategy. I really thought it was to concentrate my forces and wait for the success of the revolution.

"Then we are going to unite with the Revival Society...... Fang Shengdong asked.

"That's right! Now, Brother Wu has contacted Mr. Jing Cheng of the Revival Society. and Mr. Sun Yat-sen of the Xingzhong Society. It is believed that in the near future, they will all go to Japan to discuss the joint affairs. Fang Shengtao didn't have an appetite at this time.

"Really? Good! That's great. If this is the case, the time of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is running out. Fang Shengdong shouted loudly, it has not been a day, and he has been thinking about how to overthrow the Manchu Qing every day, but he can't imagine that it will finally be realized.

The two brothers spoke too loudly. There was a man standing outside the door: "What is the matter of shouting?" How can a revolution succeed so easily? ”

It was Fang Junying who spoke, the second sister in the family, who was beautiful, but she was extremely resolute and calm, and her personality was also resolute. At home, she cares for her two younger brothers. But the more this is the case, Fang Shengtao and Fang Shengdong are both extremely in awe of her. It's just that the joint group meeting is too exciting, so there is the excitement just now.

When Fang Shengtao saw the second sister coming, he immediately said: "Second sister, then what do you say about this revolution in the future?" ”

"Today's move of the Revival Society is only to boost the morale of our revolutionary party, and if it is really said that the anti-Qing movement is just around the corner, I am afraid that it will not be possible. As you said before, if the revolutionary groups are really closely united, then the revolution should do something, but how can this union be so easy? "Japanese houses are made of paper and wood, and the sound insulation is very poor, she heard Fang Shengtao's words clearly next door just now, but she felt that the two were too optimistic, so she came to speak.

"Even if we are a revolutionary party, we all want to oppose the Qing Dynasty, and our strength is too weak to make a difference. If the groups are truly revolutionary, how can there be any difficulty in uniting? The only thing we fear is that the Manchus brought in foreigners, and the revolution is the most difficult thing. "Eighteen-year-old Fang Shengdong is still young after all, and he was convinced when he heard the statement of the joint group meeting just now.

When Fang Junying saw him like this, he didn't argue, and after the alliance was formed or not, he knew that the matter had not yet reached the last step, and it was useless to argue with all his tongues. She looked at the two of them and said, "There is still class tomorrow, so you better go to bed early." ”

"Second sister, there will be no class tomorrow." Fang Shengtao took out the admission ticket given by Huang Xing and said, "Tomorrow's revival will have a big photo of the event in the Jinhui Pavilion, Brother Wu said that there is a voice, please go and see it." ”

Fang Shengdong snatched it when she heard this, and after a few tosses, Fang Junying took two back to the room, but she didn't go back to the room, but walked to the opposite side of her room, and then knocked on the door and said, "Cheng Ying, are you sleeping?" ”

She shouted here, but when she returned to the room, the door suddenly opened, and Cheng Ying was wearing light blue pajamas, standing at the door with a sleepy face, "I haven't slept yet, Sister Ying." Today's mission is not over yet. ”

"Don't turn it over, those earthworms have a headache just by looking at them, the owner of the bookstore is really black-hearted, if I hadn't done it, I wouldn't have helped him a long time ago." You, you still have to get more sleep. When Fang Junying was in the Japanese training class, she had a very good impression of Cheng Ying when she first saw her, there are girls studying in Japan, but most of them are public-funded students, and there are also non-public-funded students, but they all come to study together with their families. A self-financed student like her, I'm afraid there is no one else except Qiu Jin.

"Come in and sit. Sister Ying, what are you looking for me? Cheng Ying retreated and let Fang Junying in.

The room was lit with a kerosene lamp, and on the table was a thick English-Japanese dictionary, and a stack of materials and manuscript paper to be translated. Originally, according to the rules of the normal school, she had to live in the school, but Cheng Ying felt that it was not good to work in the school, and the only people she knew in Tokyo in Tokyo were Fang Junying except for He Xiangning and others in Guangdong, and at the same time, the girls in Guangdong were all official fees and basically lived in the school, so she finally lived here.

The Dragon Boat Festival of the year before last, Yang Rui disappeared without saying anything. At the same time, the chain he sent was also missing. In the midst of the loss, Cheng Ying went to his residence to look for people, but there was no news, only Mrs. Huang in Ruyi said that Mr. Yang had gone abroad, and the room was still there, and the things in it were still there, and he might be back soon. It can be seen that Mrs. Huang hopes that the couple can eventually become married, and from then on, Cheng Ying ran to Ruyi if she had nothing to do, but this period of time did not last long. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, her marriage was engaged, and it was very close. In desperation, after leaving a letter to Mrs. Huang, she got on the ship to Japan, but it was time to sail. She got off the boat again. It stood by the dock for a long time, and finally before dark. She got on the next boat. Quietly left this familiar place and headed for Japan. [Years later, when Yang Rui asked her what she was thinking when she got off the boat, she sang in the song he taught, "I won't sue you...... I won't sue you ......"]

"Tomorrow there will be a big photo of the event in the Jinhui Pavilion, which is from the Fuxing Army." Fang Junying said, handing over a ticket.

Cheng Ying was a little embarrassed. "I'm afraid I can't go. There have been a lot of things lately, and there are revolutionary speeches the day after tomorrow......"

"Put your business alone. Miss. I'm mad if you don't go. Fang Junying pretended to be airway.

Seeing her pretending to be angry, Cheng Ying laughed and took the ticket.

The Kam Fai Pavilion has been chartered by the Fuxing Association. In addition to the funeral on that day, the boss Yamamoto wanted the Fuxing Society to sell him the movie tape, and then he would put it, but the tape was not a secret, but the 78-turn discs that made the sound were extremely important, so the Jinhui Pavilion could only be chartered.

Given that each film can only store three minutes of sound, the entire film can only be interview-style, and for clarity, there are no two voices speaking at the same time on the film, a reporter from the American Herald named McCormick as the questioner.

"Why are you fighting? Didn't the Qing government say that it wanted to be neutral? ”

This was the first question asked by the Americans, and when the interpreter translated it, the soldier who was asked, who was obviously a beard, said, "What is neutrality in a spicy man?" Those dog officers won't do anything but make money. The big nose bullies us, why can't we bully him? My king's old hat just looks at the big nose and is not pleasing to the eye, and he wants to let them bleed. ”

Although the improved rubber disc is still a little silent, the thick northeast accent shocked the hearts of hundreds of international students from watching the movie. In fact, there is not much difference between Liaodong dialect and Beijing dialect, and everyone can listen to it. Hearing such vulgar but straightforward words, the international students present were stunned and applauded desperately. That's what they want to hear! That's what they're going to hear!

The whole big photo is basically such a dialogue, such a combination of dialogue and pictures makes the international students fascinated, after all, this lets them know what the Northeast is like, what the war is like, and what the soldiers are like. There is nothing sensational about the whole movie, only the guerrilla song is also remembered by everyone in an instant because it is easy to sing. But even so, people who watched it the first time went on to watch it a second and third time.

After watching it twice, Hirayama Shu, who came on purpose, didn't say hello to Miyazaki and left alone. He felt that the previous plan seemed to be a little inappropriate, according to the current situation, the most talked about by Qing students in Tokyo was the revival association, and the military song at the funeral was quickly memorized by everyone and sung continuously, and today's guerrilla song is estimated to be sung all over Japan within a few days, and then it has been affecting the Qing country. Although Hirayama did not understand what cultural aggression meant, he could feel the consequences of such behavior. Soon, he did not go back to his residence while walking on the road, but went to Inuyangyi's mansion.

"Your Excellency. Now that the Revival is becoming more and more influential, I am worried that we will not be able to control the situation by then. Hirayama Zhou lowered his head, told the big photo he saw today, and mentioned his worries.

Inukai is fifty years old this year, his hair and beard have turned gray, and his acquaintance with Sun Wen was in August 1897, when the Matsukuma cabinet in charge of Japan was extremely worried about the Qing Parliament's retaliation against Japan after the war, so under the arrangement of Foreign Minister Okuma Shigenobu, as a confidant, Inuyang Yi sent Miyazaki monstrous and Heiyama to the south of the Qing Dynasty to find secret parties and make friends with heroes from all walks of life, in order to contain the anti-Japanese policy of the Manchu Dynasty; Later, in 1899, there were Pengzhang Pavilion in Shanxian County, and although there were major changes in Qing diplomacy, the practice of using the revolutionary party to contain the Manchu Qing remained unchanged, except that the government no longer intervened directly, but operated through the GuΓ² East Asian Tongwen Society. Although he was very appreciative of Sun Wen and other revolutionary parties on the surface. But in his heart, these revolutionary parties were a group of "good people of the secret society", and he did not have much expectation of the revolutionary party at all, but the emergence of the revival society made his views a little upside down.

"Hirayama-kun, in that case, our plan needs to be adjusted again." Inukai thought about everything about the Renaissance Society, and felt more and more that the organization was dangerous, especially its refusal to cooperate with the Japanese government.

"Yes, Your Excellency. Sun Wen has no strength at all to confront the Fuxing Society. If he and Fuxing would appear in Tokyo at the same time, then ......" Hirayama did not continue, he only felt that in that case, Sun Wen would once again go into exile in Europe and the United States, and the Revival Society would merge with the entire revolutionary organization in Tokyo. It truly became the largest anti-Qing organization.

"Could it be ......," Inuyo Yi said, who was also thinking about the same question as Pingshan Zhou. But he asked again. "Hirayama-kun. Isn't it too hasty to judge that the leader of the Revival Society will not get close to Japan before we have met him? ”

"No, Your Excellency!" Pingshan Zhoudao, as a Chinese expert who has visited the party in Chinese mainland, knows very well about those anti-Qing organizations in China, and at the same time. He also knows a lot about what Inu Yangyi thinks. "As far as is known, the slogan of the Xingzhong Society is 'drive out the Tatars, restore fΓΉ China', and at the same time Sun Wen himself. He did not regard the Great Wall as a land of China, but he still hoped to restore the territory of China during the Ming Dynasty; However, we do not see such words in the program of the Revival Society, and it is not difficult to see their attitude towards Manchuria that they did not immediately launch an uprising in southern China like the Huaxing Society did, as the Huaxing Society did, but aimed at Manchuria. Even if they were just fighting the Lu state in Manchuria to gain prestige, they didn't necessarily want the land. But once they did, the reputation of the entire revival society was linked to Manchuria. ”

Thinking about it carefully, Hirayama Zhou's analysis is very reasonable, in Inuyangyi's assumption, Manchuria and Eastern Mongolia will be the places of development of Japan in the future, and the reason why we are spending our energies to support the revolutionary party now is all for this reason, if after the success of the Qing Revolution, Japan cannot get Manchuria, then it is better not to revolutionize. Thinking of this, Inu Yangyi nodded.

Seeing the adults nodding, Hirayama Zhou said: "The Revival Society is completely different from the Qing Congress Party that I have come into contact with, the general meeting party, the mountains are numerous, the organization is scattered, the congregation regards money as life, and the leader has no deep understanding of the general trend of the country except for the things on the territory, but these are not seen in the Revival Association." Until now, we don't know who their leaders are, how many people are in the organization, and what the internal situation is; What's even more terrifying is that they know very well what the people like to hear, and what they are doing now is what the people want, which shows that they are people who know how to take advantage of the situation, but although they take advantage of the situation, they have their own principles, for example, they did not cooperate with the Japanese army to jointly attack the country. Your Excellency, I am extremely concerned about this meeting. ”

What Hirayama Zhou said was all about things, and Inuyang Yi said: "Well, Hirayama-kun, what is your strategy?" ”

"I hope that Your Excellency will not support the Revival Society as you support the Renaissance Society, or that you can cooperate with the Qing government to suppress the Renaissance Society's power in Tokyo." Hirayama thoughtful.

"Nope. It doesn't need to be like this. "In this case, there will be a gap between us and the Renaissance Society, and the other Qing Revolutionary Party will not trust us." Even if the Revival Society is to be suppressed, it should not be Japan who will intervene, but they should be allowed to fight among themselves. I think what we need to do is to inform Sun Wen immediately that a national anti-Qing organization is going to be set up in Tokyo, and we want him to be the leader of this organization. As long as Sun Wen arrives in Tokyo first, then he will definitely be the leader of this organization, do you think Sun Wen will give up this position with our support? ”

"But...... Your Excellency, what if the leader of the Revival Society is in the lead, or if he is in Japan? Hirayama asked.

"Then it depends on whether he is friendly enough to Japan...... "Inukai Yi said, laughing before he finished speaking. (To be continued......)
