Chapter 65: Before the Meeting 2
Yang Rui read the list again, and after remembering it in his heart, he returned it to Wang Jitong. Because everyone has seen this thing, Wang Jitong did not put it in the box anymore, but burned it directly. Seeing that all the pieces of paper had turned into ashes, he said: "You have been in the Northeast, and you are not familiar with the situation in Guannei, and Uncle Mei and Mr. Hua Feng also don't understand the situation, so I will make a general introduction here."
Among the 18 provinces in Guannai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang, and Liangguang are the most revolutionary, which is also the reason why we stand in East China, Huaxing will stand in Hunan, and Xingzhong will stand in Guangdong. At present, the Huaxing Society and the Xingzhong Society have been merged into the Alliance Association, but their sphere of influence is nothing more than the four regions of Liangguang and Huguang, and as for Sichuan, Jiangxi, Fujian, and Anhui, there are revolutionary parties, but there are still not many; However, the northern provinces have always been closed-minded, and there are many parties, but few revolutionary forces. At present, the priority of the association is to vigorously explore the north, initially in the name of business and running schools, and then try to establish an organization and develop its power. In the northern provinces, Shandong has the best development because of the relationship between immigrants, followed by Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Gansu. In the south, in addition to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Sichuan, Jiangxi, Fujian, and Anhui provinces, Hubei and Guangdong have also set up provincial-level branches, and provincial-level branches are still being established, that is, Hunan and Guangxi, one is tight, and the other is late, and the branches have not yet been established, while Yunnan and Guizhou provinces are too remote and have limited manpower and material resources, and they have also not established branches.
In the southern provinces, it was mainly revolutionary groups that joined us. For example, the Zhejiang Society in Zhejiang, the Yuewang Society in Anhui, the Yizhishe in Jiangxi, the Han Independence Association in Fujian, the Gongqiang Association in Sichuan, the Rizhi Society in Hubei, and the Xingzhong Society in Guangdong. Some of these organizations only partially participated, such as the Yuewang Society, the Rizhi Society, and the Xingzhong Society, while the others all participated in the Fuxing Society, while there were no revolutionary groups in the north, and they were basically a few like-minded revolutionaries, most of whom were from running schools and newspapers. Like Liu Jixue in Henan, Chang Zixin in Shaanxi, Sun Songling in Zhili, and Liu Guansan in Shandong. ā
Everyone knows about the Xingzhong Society, Cai Yuanpei said: "What is the situation between the Yue Wang Society and the Rizhi Society, why are they only partially joining us?" ā
"King Yue will be in addition to Bai Wenwei and others. Another initiator, Chen Youji, did not approve of the program. Speaking of Chen Youji, he has some connections with us, and in the year Su reported the case, he ran the National Daily Daily with Xie Xiaoshi, Zhang Shizhao and others in Shanghai. At that time, we helped with guarantees, printing, renting, etc. However, later the newspaper was seized, Xie Xiaoshi joined the association, and Chen Youji went back to Anhui to run the Anhui Vulgar Newspaper. Anhui Public School was established, he taught in it, and Bai Wenwei initiated the Yue Wang Association, and now Bai Wenwei and others have joined the Revival Association, and the Yue Wang Association will be left with Chen Youji's faction. Wang Ji said.
Because Cai Yuanpei did not participate in the formation of the assassination team, he did not know Chen Youji. Yang Rui never knew that Chen Youji would change his famous name to Chen Duxiu in the future, and he heard that some people did not agree with the program of the Revival Association. He asked, "Is it because we want to make a constitution that we don't join?" ā
"No, we didn't talk about constitutionalism at the beginning of last year. In fact, this person's real name is 'Qingtong', and later changed to 'by himself', and his 'alone' can be seen in general. The reason why he did not join the Confederacy was that he thought that the Confederacy would be a mess of fish and mud; The reason why they did not join us was because they did not agree with our idea of a totalitarian government, believing that all men were born free, and that a totalitarian government, no matter how enlightened it was, would still be a dictatorship, so it resolutely refused to join the association. ā
Hearing that Chen Youji pursued freedom, Yang Rui sighed, "Freedom, freedom, how many crimes are in the name of you!" After sighing, he said, "If he can't see through what kind of freedom advocated by foreigners is, it will be better if he doesn't enter, but it will be difficult to clean up if he does." Don't talk about King Yue's meeting, let's talk about the day of the meeting. ā
Yang Rui's anti-liberal theory has long been resorted to in the internal text of the meeting, and several committee members fully agree with it. So Wang Jitong began to introduce the Rizhi Society: "The Rizhi Society was initiated by Liu Jing'an and Cao Yabo, and its predecessor was the Science Tutorial Institute, and after this group was disbanded, Liu Jing'an established the Rizhi Society with the help of the Christian reading room. It is said that the model of this meeting is somewhat similar to that of the political commissars in our army, which is mainly based on ideological comfort and persuasion, and now the Rizhi Society has attracted more than 1,000 revolutionaries, many of whom are soldiers in the Hubei New Army, but the Rizhi Society selects people very strictly, and only recruits more than 100 backbone members to join the meeting. ā
"There is a little taste of us, how did we get on the line with them, what kind of person is Liu Jing'an, can he join the revival association?" Yang Rui only felt that the Rizhihui had a very good appetite for him, but thinking that he had only partially joined the Revival Society, he only felt a little lacking.
"Feng Temin, a representative of Hubei, was originally a member of the Science Tutorial Institute, but later lived in Shanghai because of the Chu newspaper that opened Zhang Zhidong, so he joined the Fuxing Association, and Cai Jimin and others also joined under his introduction. As for Liu Jing'an, a native of Qianjiang, Hubei, he was originally the clerk of Li Yuanhong in the first battalion of the horse team, and the science tutorial school was seized because of the Changsha uprising, so he left the camp under the pretext of illness, and then conspired with Wang Han and Hu Ying to assassinate Tieliang, the assassination failed, Wang Han died, Hu Ying went to Japan, and he hid for a period of time and came out to found the Rizhi Society, in order to restore the scale of the previous science tutorial school. Judging from this, his revolutionary will is very strong, but the backbone of the Science Tutorial Institute earlier, Lu Dasen, Hu Ying, Song Jiaoren, Cao Yabo and others were all members of the Huaxing Association, and now they are members of the Alliance, so it is difficult for him to join the Fuxing Association. "Hubei has always been the focus of attention of the Fuxing Society, but because the revolutionary parties in various places pay more attention to the region, it is difficult for the Fuxing Association with Jiangsu and Zhejiang members as the backbone to gain a foothold in Hubei.
After Wang Jitong finished speaking, everyone had a general understanding of the Japanese Notification Society and Liu Jing'an, and when they discussed how to expand the influence of the Fuxing Society in Hubei, Yang Rui only thought about the conflict with the Alliance in Japan last time, and even thought that the conflict between the two sessions in China in the future, especially in Guangdong and Huguang, would be inevitable. Of course, this is not Tokyo. It was impossible for him to back down like the last time, in fact, in addition to Yang Rui's respect for the revolutionary party, he didn't want to be laughed at by the Japanese who were instigated behind his back. Now he has no respect for those revolutionary parties. It feels like that, even if there are people with clear minds, they are confused in a group of angry youths.
"I mention that it is very necessary for us to discuss the principles of our relationship with the League." While everyone was talking, Yang Rui said, "It is impossible to repeat the last incident in Tokyo in China, and now there are our branches in Hubei and Guangdong. What if there is another conflict between the two associations? ā
What Yang Rui thinks is actually what Wang Jitong thinks, and now the League's People's Daily and Hong Kong's China Daily are trumpeting that the Fuxing Society is a fake revolution and a real slave. The impact is not small. However, the results were mixed: the good was that the enemy of the enemy was the friend, and since he was scolded by the revolutionary party, in the eyes of the Manchus and the gentry, the revival society had abandoned the revolution. I really want to save the country by constitution. For example, Liang Qichao and others in Tokyo warmly welcomed the revival society to abandon the revolution and turn to the constitution; However, in the eyes of many revolutionary parties, the Revival Society's move was to cheer up the constitutionalists and began to despise the Renaissance Society, including the United States Hongmen Huang Sande, who complained about it.
"Are the two associations going to kill each other?" Zhang Taiyan's sworn brother Zhang Ji is a member of the Alliance, although he has been sacrificed, he still has a good impression of the Alliance based on his emotions. "Do you want me to go there myself? Talk to Sun Wen and the others, and tell them the truth......"
He couldn't go on halfway through his talk. If the Renaissance Society is just a local organization like the Zhejiang Society and the Yue Wang Society, then the League will do everything possible to win it over, but now the branches of the Renaissance Society are all over the 14 provinces in Guannai, and the power of the Alliance is nothing more than in the five provinces of Huguang, Liangguang and Sichuan, and even if some people join in the other provinces, they are just individual students. Under these circumstances, unless the Revival Society is disbanded and Sun Wen is appointed as the leader of the revolution, the struggle between the two associations cannot be stopped.
Xu Huafeng and Cai Yuanpei didn't speak, Zhang Taiyan couldn't say anything halfway, Wang Jitong said: "It's better that the well water doesn't interfere with the river water, let's go to Guangdong and Hubei to develop members, and the alliance will not come to hinder them, and we won't bother them when they come to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to develop members." If they ......"
"If they do something to us, then we do something to them." Wang Jitong still wanted to leave some leeway, but Yang Rui picked up the words.
After Yang Rui finished speaking, the others were silent, and after a while, Wang Ji said, "Let's vote." ā
As soon as he said voting, the first person to raise his hand after everyone was silent for a while was Zhang Taiyan, who heard him say: "If you lose your deer, the world will chase it away." Whether it is a republic or a centralized power, in the final analysis, it is an excuse to fight for the world, and we are afraid that the alliance will become bigger and bigger in the future, and it will also be our fierce enemy. Use domineering against strong opponents and royal roads for the people, which has been the case since ancient times, and it is just a matter of becoming a king and defeating a villain. ā
Yang Rui really didn't think that he was the first to raise his hand, but thinking of the fact that he often said earlier that he was the second in knowledge and the first in politics, he was a little enlightened at the moment, after Zhang Taiyan, it was Wang Jitong who raised his hand, then Xu Huafeng, and finally Cai Yuanpei, so plus Yang Rui who mentioned yƬ, a total of five votes, when Yu Zixun was in the United States, Yang Rui had already communicated with him about this matter, and he completely agreed with Yang Rui's proposition, and Zhong Guanguan saw that everyone agreed, and he expected to agree with this mention. This is considered a unanimous vote.
"Uncle Mei, now that the Alliance will not only attack our constitution, but also criticize the purpose of the association, in this case, how can we fight back?" Since Zhang Taiyan boasted that he was the first in politics, Wang Jitong hoped that he would be responsible for the counterattack.
Yang Rui thought that he would only be able to write an article to refute it after he went back, but he didn't expect Zhang Taiyan to fan it, and he turned around twice on the wooden board of the attic and said: "Sun Wenzhi's doctrine is called 'three peoples', called nationalism, civil rights, and people's livelihood. Its nationalism is Han nationalityism, which only speaks of the interests of the Han nationality and does not mention the interests of other ethnic groups, so can the interests of other ethnic groups be betrayed for the interests of the Han nationality? In addition, the Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, and Manchu ethnic groups all have ancestral homes, and once nationalism is mentioned, can these four places become independent? To advocate nationalism, only when we Han people occupy a foothold in these four places, or these four ethnic groups have been sinicized, can we talk about nationalism, and now we can only advocate nationalism and patriotism. Therefore, Sun Wenzhi's nationalism is actually a nationalism without a nationality, which can be dismissed as traitorism. ā
Zhang Taiyan finished speaking. Yang Rui laughed and applauded, glad that he had finally changed to nationalism, who knew that he didn't appreciate it at all. Lang said: "Actually, this is just to refute Sun Wen, I still think that the Chinese are the China of the Han people." ā
Yang Rui still laughed, in fact, he only thought that he refuted Sun Wen's refutation well, and besides, Yang Rui himself was a Han nationalist, and the reason why he advocated nationalism was nothing more than an expedient measure to not want Mongolia, Tibet, Xinjiang, Northeast China and other places to be separated.
Everyone laughed. Zhang Taiyan said again: "Its civil rights, on the one hand, says that the people have high consciousness and 'all have the right to participate in politics'. On the one hand, he said that 'the country is like a baby, but the party can stand in the land of nanny...... and then put forward 'the rule of military law, the rule of the law, and the rule of the constitution', which is completely different from bullshit! How similar is this to the faces of those corrupt officials in the Manchu Qing Dynasty? Doesn't this mean that the people are all children who don't know anything? It seems that there are no such parents as them. Then they won't be able to plant fields, they won't be able to eat, and they won't be clothed? How unreasonable! The government of the Westerners. He is called the night watchman, but he is actually a servant and a slave of the people, and how can there ever be a government as a nanny to the people?
Furthermore, the three rules of 'military law, covenant law, and constitution' advocated by him are also very absurd. It is true that there is power in the barrel of a gun, but to say that equality comes out of the barrel of a gun is a big lie! Imagine that the power of the people is not strong, when will the rule of military law and the rule of the law of covenant end? When will those warriors with guns be able to relinquish power? So Sun Wen's civil rights doctrine. It is the doctrine of martial nanny, which can be dismissed as party governance. ā
Although Zhang Taiyan is only arguing for the sake of arguing. But this speech was profound, especially the phrase "equality comes out of the barrel of the gun" made Yang Rui think deeply. When he was thinking wildly, everyone else was clapping, and Xu Huafeng said: "Uncle Mei doesn't argue like this, I'm afraid I also think that this Three People's Principles are very reasonable, and now when I listen to you, I know that he is no different from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, just holding a republican brand." ā
Zhang Taiyan had never heard of everyone's applause, and stood under the glass tile in the attic to think about how to refute the people's livelihood, "Finally, the people's livelihood, since the country is governed by the party, it is a bureaucratic faction, that is, a bureaucratic faction, and the people who bully the superior and the subordinates and fish and meat cannot be eliminated." Under the imperial power, there are factional struggles, as well as the imperial history, but under the rule of the party, vainly saying that the officials are wrong and guilty is to move the foundation of the party's rule, and even if the officials are guilty, they will be punished lightly, or cover up their crimes, all of which are based on maintaining their rule as the first priority, and the life and death of the people's rights are completely abandoned. Therefore, Sun Wen's people's livelihood doctrine is really a people's livelihood doctrine!
Recently, Sun Wen also said that he would not learn from the separation of the three powers in the West, but add the right to examine and supervise to the three powers, make up the five powers, and implement the separation of the five powers, and then said that it is more progressive than the three powers in the West. Is he going to treat us all like children? thinks that the more the power is divided, the more detailed the autocracy is, but I don't know that these five powers are controlled by the president, isn't this the left hand supervising the right hand? The president of the United States does not have the right to legislate and the judiciary, but under President Sun Wen, he has set up a court and a judicial court, which is more dictatorial than the emperor. The emperor's dictatorship must also follow the Confucian way of governing the country, and the foreign president must abide by the legislation of the Congress, but Sun Wen's separation of five powers, said to be separate, in fact, the five powers are held by him alone, which is actually the fact of raising the banner of the republic and practicing dictatorship, hanging the name of the president and sitting on the throne of the emperor. This doctrine must be refuted by our revival society! ā
Zhang Taiyan said wonderfully, Yang Rui and the others got up and clapped their hands after he finished speaking, and only stopped for a long time, only Wang Jitong was writing hard and writing down all his criticisms. Only after he finished writing did he say: "Do you want to publish this article on the China Times?" ā
Yang Rui said: "Let's talk to them first, don't attack each other, if they still refute the revival society as 'fake revolution and real slaves' in the people's newspaper as always, then we will publish this article." ā
It was not Yang Rui's intention to rashly provoke a debate, but he has been attacked by others and has not fought back, so who knows what else the alliance will do. As soon as he said this, Wang Jitong said, "Don't ask, the last time we backed down in Tokyo, they thought we were not good at speeches and debates, but now the Minbao and China Daily are no longer trying to argue, and there are even personal attacks." ā
Yang Rui didn't know that the people of the Alliance were already so rampant, and said strangely, "What are they attacking?" ā
They found Wu Zhihui, who was in the UK, to attack Uncle Mei, saying that Uncle Mei was just a person with a good name, and when Su reported the crime. Surrendered to prison just for fame, and ......" Speaking of this, Wang Jitong, who has always been strict, also laughed. Said: "They also said that Yang Rui, the president of the Revival Association, is not surnamed Yang, but his name should be Aixin Jueluo. Zai Rui, in fact, is the illegitimate son of the Manchu royal family, because he is not recognized by the royal government, so he wanders overseas, and now sees the revolutionary wind. Fearing that his family would be overthrown, he founded the Revival Society in the name of a false revolution. The real ...... of protecting the emperor"
Wang Jitong felt funny, but Yang Rui couldn't laugh at all, he was a person of unknown origin. Fortunately, in 03, some identity cover-up was arranged, and there were many inquiries in my hometown. He was stunned for a moment. Laughed dryly: "It's funny that you have become a tartar." It seems that I still have to go to the ancestral grave of the Tartars, and the three tombs outside the gate still can't be left. By the way, who knew my name was Yang Rui? ā
"Who else?!" Zhang Taiyan was furious when he said this, "First in Japan, in the name of walking into the sea, I jumped a stinky ditch; Then in Shanghai, Su sold me and Xingyan to the Qing officials when he reported the case, and then fled to Hong Kong by himself. In Hong Kong, they were still afraid of the Qing officials, and they followed the British as far away. Cowardly as a mouse, despicable and shameless Wu Zhihuier! ā
Wu Zhihui had also invited him to join the revival association earlier, but at that time, the Patriotic Society and the China Education Association had a breakup, Zhang Taiyan was completely on the side of the China Education Association, and Wu Zhihui was on the side of the students of the Patriotic Society. And last spring and Sun Wen met in London, and the two got in touch from there.
"After a lot of calculations, I can't imagine that something has gone wrong here." Yang Rui shook his head, Wu Zhihui is no better than the students of the Patriotic Society, he was originally a member of the Education Association, and he is very familiar with the Education Association and Yang Rui, "Then now we have to remove the Education Association." There is also Lu Xing's factory, although I remember that Wu Zhihui didn't know about Lu Xing's factory at the time, but it is better to find a way to cover it during the cautious period. ā
Although Wu Zhihui is at odds with Zhang Taiyan, it is not believed that he betrayed Zhang Shizhao, Zhang Taiyan and others Cai Yuanpei, and he also did not believe in betraying Yang Rui, he said: "Brother Zhihui will not be so indistinguishable from wrong, besides, when the Wumu Mountain monk was in Japan, it is said that he lived next door to Sun Wen, and they will naturally talk about the Su Bao case in the past, plus Zhihui doesn't know what he said in London, Sun Wen compares the two, and naturally comes to the conclusion that Yang Jingcheng is Yang Rui." ā
Seeing Cai Yuanpei helping Wu Zhihui say good things, Zhang Taiyan snorted angrily. However, Yang Rui was not too worried about Wu Zhihui, he said: "I'm not worried about Wu Zhihui, but worried about the Alliance, there are countless Japanese spies in it...... Anyway, education will have to go out independently. I forgot to say that President Roosevelt of the United States has promised to start an investigation, and there will be results soon. In addition to the losses of American businessmen and people, the biggest expense is military spending, and now the US military has falsely reported $11 million, but in fact it is only $3 million. In other words, about 15 million can be returned for the compensation of 24 million. Roosevelt privately thought that half of the money could be used by the Education Society, but how to use it was still up to the Manchu Academy, the U.S. Minister to the Qing Dynasty, and the Education Council to negotiate specific methods, so it would be better for the Education Society to take it out. ā
What Roosevelt asked Alice to tell was actually something in the words, and Yang Rui later talked to General Corbyn about this matter before he realized that the actual losses of the United States had a lot to do with the military spending of the U.S. Army in Gengzi Year. And Wang Jitong and Cai Yuanpei, although they knew that there would be this money, but they didn't expect the news to come so soon, Cai Yuanpei said excitedly: "How are Americans going to return this money?" Is it a direct grant? ā
"It's to study abroad, and universities won't run in China, but we just want to send the right students to the United States. At that time, I was supposed to send 500 qualified students to study in the United States every year, but Roosevelt felt that it was too much, and the final number might be only 300. Yang Rui said.
"Three hundred is not a lot, this ......" Cai Yuanpei calculated silently in his heart, and then said, "This is only four hundred and fifty thousand US dollars, less than one million yuan, too little." ā
Seeing him like this, Yang Rui said again: "And it is estimated that only half of these places belong to us, and the other half belongs to the Manchu Academy." As for how many students they can send out, I don't know, but what about those students who have dropped out of school in Japan and come back? How many of them transferred to Europe and the United States? ā
"There are more than 2,100 people who are willing to transfer to Europe and the United States, of which 500 are paid by us, and the rest are either at public expense or at our own expense. This is also a good propaganda of domestic public opinion, as soon as the contradiction between the Revival Society and the League in Tokyo came out, and now the Manchu Qing Dynasty knows that those who return to China are good students, and those who stay in Japan are the revolutionary party, so many publicly-funded students are willing to bear the tuition fees. These students are now learning Spanish, and when they become familiar with it, they can study abroad. Although the China Times in Tokyo was blocked, public opinion in Shanghai was completely under the control of the Renaissance Association, and the ins and outs of the ban were clear in China.
After Cai Yuanpei finished speaking, Wang Jitong said again, "In fact, among the people who came back in the early days, there were also many people from the Alliance, who set up a Chinese public school in Shanghai, and many of them were members of the League. ā
"Chinese public schools?"
"Yes. It's on the side of the Yokohama Bridge on Sichuan Road, and school just started some time ago. They didn't want to come to the Revival school, so they went to run their own school. The people inside are all arrogant, and there is a woman in it, whose surname is Qiu Jingxiong, who likes to draw knives and scare people. Cai Yuanpei also listened to what the people below said, thinking of a woman drawing a knife and scary, isn't that a tigress. (To be continued......)
