Chapter 20: Reform Again

As a person who has returned from studying abroad, he wants to do something he can for China at this time, even if it is a small thing. He wanted to see which of Sun Wen and Yuan Shikai had the same political views as himself, and it was a very happy thing to work for those who shared his ideals.

Zhao Dong believes that a nation can only be self-reliant if it is self-reliant, and only by being self-reliant can it win respect. He really didn't like Sun Wen's set of federations, he never thought that Yang Fighting Ghosts' concept was so similar to him.

This made Zhao Dong feel contradictory, very contradictory!

The newspapers kept scolding the beast, and my father kept telling himself that Yang Dagui was a heinous bastard. Yang Dagui is indeed a bastard, the moment he received his father at the station, looking at Zhao Erxun's body that had lost weight several times, Zhao Dong felt that Yang Xiaolin was the enemy of his life!

But now there is a strong desire in his heart, that is, he wants to choose a lion, he wants to make China a lion! weishenme? Weishenme is not Mr. Sun Wen and Mr. Yuan Shikai? Weishenme is this beast? He was at a loss.

Life is like this, your ideals are on the road you don't want to take, and it is a kind of torture that you can't get rid of. But what's even more torturous is that you have worked hard to embark on a road, and when you reach your destination, you find that there is no ideal you want.

Zhao Dong's pain belongs to the former, while Wu Zhaolin's pain belongs to the latter.

Wuchang.

Xiong Bingkun's squad leader is famous this time, but life doesn't seem to have changed much for him, except for hanging a medal on his chest that Sun Wen personally awarded him with his own hands, the only difference is that he became an adjutant of Wu Zhaolin's army.

This unit fought for a period of time in Wuchang with the passion of revolutionary success, and more than half of the new army in Yizhen suffered casualties, and only more than 3,000 people remained.

The boiling blood slowly cooled down. In particular, the negotiations began, and the battle in Wuchang also entered the stage of intermission. When there was no danger to their lives, the soldiers began to think about some problems in life, and they found a very cruel reality, that is, Mr. Sun Wen had no money to pay them military salaries.

Mr. Sun Wen explained this, he personally sent a telegram to the rebel army in Wuchang, saying that the country is in great difficulty at present, and the nation is very difficult at present, and Mr. Sun Wen said that our revolution has just begun, and he hopes that the revolutionary soldiers will carry forward the revolutionary spirit and give more consideration to the country and the nation at this difficult stage.

Xiong Bingkun felt that what Mr. Sun Wen said was right. Since there is a revolution, there must be the consciousness of revolutionaries. And Lao Xiong is a very simple person, he doesn't have any extravagant expectations, he can live, just have a bite to eat.

It's just that he really has one thing to do, and he must do it, and it has nothing to do with the revolution.

Old Bear wanted to rebuild the ruined temple where he was hiding.

When he was desperate, he made a wish to the Bodhisattva in the temple that if he could live, he would rebuild the temple, but now that he is really alive, the battle has stopped. It's time to make your own vows. Chinese know from an early age that they can't fool a bodhisattva by deceiving anyone.

"Angkor, can you lend me some money?"

Xiong Bingkun found Wu Zhaolin, blushing for a long time before saying this sentence. Wu Zhaolin didn't hesitate, and took out a few copper plates from his pocket: "That's all." Take it all. ”

Xiong Bingkun counted the copper plate in his hand: "This, it's not enough." ”

Wu Zhaolin looked at him at this time: "What, you have something?" ”

Lao Xiong nodded: "I made a wish before the revolution, and I said in front of the Bodhisattva that I would repay my wish if I was alive." More than two months have passed, and the war is no longer fought, if you don't go again. I'm afraid that the Bodhisattva will blame me, you said that this cannonball is hanging above our heads, and if you are not lucky, don't you say that it will be gone? ”

Wu Zhaolin nodded, and hoped that Xiong Bingkun would be completely able to understand. But he really didn't have any money on him.

Look around: "Wait, I'll find you a rich master, Zhang Biao!" Where is Zhang Biao? ”

He didn't kill Zhang Biao, Wu Zhaolin really wanted to kill Zhang Biao before he captured the Governor's Mansion, but when he was really victorious, he rushed in with his troops and saw Zhang Biao kneeling on the ground with his hands raised, Wu Zhaolin suddenly felt that he had no hatred for Zhang Biao, because who was the waste had already been separated.

So he took Zhang Biao with him and gave Zhang Biao a captain to do it. He felt that it was more enjoyable to let Zhang Biao see his conducting art than to kill Zhang Biao.

Zhang Biao ran over: "Here!" ”

Before the person arrived, a very formal military salute began to be prepared, how deferential and deferential it should be. Wu Zhaolin waved his hand: "Okay, okay, do you have any money?" ”

Zhang Biao's face changed: "Report to General Wu, I have no money on me." ”

"Go get some at home."

"I don't have it at home either!"

Wu Zhaolin's eyes immediately widened: "You are nonsense!" How much did you deduct from our military pay before? Don't tell you you you don't have any money, or I'll be rude to you! ”

Zhang Biao was very aggrieved: "It's really gone!" Our team has not been paid since the day of the revolution! Brothers, if you have a problem, you will borrow money from me, and you will eat me every other day, how much can I stand up! ”

Wu Zhaolin thought that this was also the actual situation, and he had borrowed money from Zhang Biao several times. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart, originally the affairs of Wuchang could be said to have been handled by Wu Zhaolin, but as soon as Huang Xing came, Li Yuanhong asked him to hand over the military power.

The defense line arranged by Wu Zhaolin was completely able to fight with Feng Guozhang for a while, but as soon as Huang Xing, the hero of the two lakes, arrived, and Wu Zhaolin knew that he would not fight! No, forget it, I'll teach you if you're humble. The key is that he still pretends to know, and he really kicks himself aside.

Seeing that his hard work was defeated by Huang Xing, he was a belly of opinions! If it weren't for Li Yuanhong pressing him, he would have driven Huang Xing away, so what would it be like a war.

Don't say any of this, Li Yuanhong is right to let him be less showy and not to be too eye-catching, he can understand this truth. But now that he can't even get any money to help Xiong Bingkun, Wu Zhaolin feels that he is not as good as when he was a small platoon leader under Zhang Biao before?

He was a little annoyed: "Old bear, I really can't help." I'm sorry for you. His grandmother, how do you say our lives are changed? ”

Zhang Biao didn't dare to speak on the side, and a brother next to him may also be in a hurry, hearing Wu Zhaolin ask casually, he immediately ran over: "That's it!" Why are we going to lose our military salary? General Wu, can't we reform it again? ”

Wu Zhaolin slapped the man over. It will definitely not work to reform again, at least he Wu Zhaolin doesn't have the ability. But if things continue like this, Wu Zhaolin is sure that his team will have to disperse, and he will become the commander of the light pole, and no one will pay attention to him at that time. Could it be that he is taking such a big risk with his head in order to be the title of a revolutionary father?

No, you have to think of a way.

He frowned for a moment and patted Zhang Biao's shoulder: "Zhang Biao, bring the map." ”

Take the map and open it. Wu Zhaolin's hand was placed on Wuchang's position. Look at the provinces around you. You don't have to look at it in Sichuan, you can't intervene yourself. Feng Guozhang in the north has a military salary, and the Beiyang Army has already said that as long as the revolutionary army surrenders in the past, the official will be promoted to one level immediately, and the soldiers will be paid.

There are quite a few troops in the past, and they all confirm that this is true. But this road doesn't seem to work for them, the other troops can surrender, his troops? He has already seen the wanted warrant issued by Old Yuan. He Wu Zhaolin and Xiong Bingkun are among the best, so forget it.

Going to Anhui? It's not interesting, the troops there are poorer than themselves, and they have something to eat. Those people just called Huazi, except for some who came to Wuchang to eat and drink with their heads, most of them went to Nanjing to make trouble for military salaries.

Can't you go to Nanjing to make a fuss yourself? Moving his eyes from Anhui to Jiangsu, Wu Zhaolin just paused slightly, feeling that it was the next step. There are already more than 100,000 people in Nanjing, but they can't make trouble, and they are not more capable than others.

Then I suddenly saw such a place as Shanghai. Wu Zhaolin's eyes changed!

The remnants of the Qing army in Shanghai have not yet been reorganized, except for that army, there is only a gang of ruffians of the Green Gang in the whole of Shanghai, and now Shanghai can be said to be the richest city in China, if you go there to raise a little supplies, will there be a problem?

He is not worried that he will not be able to go to Shanghai, now there are more revolutionary armies along the way, who knows who is who! It's just that Shanghai is too sensitive, Lord Yang said that there can be no military disaster in Shanghai, and if his troops go there, Wu Zhaolin can't estimate what the result will be! So he thought about it for a long time and couldn't decide.

But he couldn't find any other place on the map, and just as he hesitated, a soldier ran from behind: "Report! General Wu, that kid from Qian Si just took someone to the north, and only left a letter for you. ”

Wu Zhaolin's heart suddenly chilled when he heard this, Qian Si was a good friend he had known since he was a platoon commander! And now they have abandoned him?

He took the letter and squeezed it in his hand after reading it: "Zhang Biao, have you seen the officer of the team in Shanghai?" ”

Zhang Biao said: "The surname is Hong, and I have been photographed, but I am not familiar with it. ”

Wu Zhaolin nodded: "Okay!" It's okay to take a picture, I really can't spend it here, our team has done a lot of things, it's a pity to disperse! Order the brothers to assemble! ”

Negotiations are still going on in Beijing, and Mr. Sun Wen is still trying to find a way out for democracy. At this time, Wu Zhaolin took this world-famous army and set off to find his own way out with the banner of the first righteous father.

Wu Zhaolin is such a person, in order to give himself a way to live, he can cooperate with the revolutionary party. In order to keep himself alive, he can aim his gun at his mentor who has taken care of him for more than ten years!

His biggest dream is to be a general, and he will be famous all over the world, but if the army is gone and the people's hearts are scattered, where will he go to be a general?

To be a soldier, you have to eat military salary, which is a matter of course. You don't have a military pay, I'll figure it out myself. He didn't think about the consequences of doing so, it was a big deal to really reform his life again, anyway, the boss who didn't pay his salary was no better than the Manchu Qing.

He said that he would leave, did not go to say hello to Huang Xing, and did not even send a telegram to Li Yuanhong to report. (To be continued......)
