Chapter 091 Shanghai Road

"Quickly let go of me!" Zhou Charter shouted.

"You fucking want to run!" Jiang Naiwu shouted, "Brother Xu is dead. I will first kill you as a spy to avenge Brother Xu, and then die with the Qing soldiers!"

Jiang Naiwu said, staring at his blood-red glasses, howling and rushing to Zhou Charter. Zhou Charter swept his legs and sweeping on Jiang Naiwu's thighs. Jiang Naiwu's feet were unstable and rolled to the ground. He heard a "bang" gunshot, and a bullet flew out against Jiang Naiwu's forehead.

In the reeds not far away, a Qing soldier was aiming at shooting with a rifle. Zhou Charter recognized at a glance that the Qing soldier had a single-shot rifle, which was shot out and needed to be returned. Zhou Charter couldn't take care of much and rushed to the Qing soldier. Before the Qing soldier could pull the bolt, he was hit head by Zhou Charter and rolled to the ground, and the rifle in his hand flew out.

The Qing soldier was also fierce. The gun in his hand flew, and he stretched out his right arm and was about to draw a bayonet from his waist. Zhou Charter's hand was tied to his back, so he had to kneel on the Qing soldier's body, pressed the Qing soldier's right arm with his thighs, and shouted, "Good sister Yun, come and help me!"

Ge Yun ran over in a hurry and ran around Zhou Charter and the Qing soldier three times, but there was no way to start. She shouted anxiously, "How can I help you?"

"Kill him!"

"I, I don't have a knife!" Ge Yun is sweating profusely.

"If you don't have a knife, use stones, sticks, ropes... Damn, whatever it is, just kill people!" Zhou Charter shouted angrily. This girl is so capable that she is not a fucking revolutionary party!

"I won't kill!" Ge Yun's tears are about to come down.

Hearing a choking sound, the Qing soldier pulled out his bayonet and stabbed Zhou Charter's chest.

"I can kill people!" Hearing a shout, a big stone fell from the sky and hit the head of the Qing soldier. The Qing soldier's brain burst, and the blade of the bayonet stopped on Zhou Charter's chest and then slipped into the quagmire.

Ge Yun screamed and sat in the muddy water with a plop.

Jiang Naiwu stood next to the dead body and clapped his hands: "I took revenge on Brother Xu!"

"Fuckly kill a Qing soldier. Look, how many Qing soldiers have killed you! Take revenge!" Zhou Charter scolded, "Quickly untie me!"

One after another shell flew onto the cliff. In the violent explosion, the remains of countless revolutionary troops were blown up and scattered in the jungle.

Jiang Naiwu picked up the bayonet, cut the rope on Zhou Charter, and turned around to rush to the cliff. Zhou Charter shouted, "Hold me!"

Jiang Naiwu looked at Zhou Charter in a stunned manner. Just now, he was going to kill the spy, but now, unconsciously, he obeyed what the spy said.

Zhou Charter picked up the rifle and bullet belt of the Qing soldiers, but it was an old-fashioned Remington rifle, which was single-shot but highly stable.

Zhou Charter waved his hand to Jiang Naiwu, pulled up Ge Yunhao, who was sitting in the muddy water, and ran to the reeds to the east.

Jiang Naiwu hesitated for a moment and hurriedly followed.

Zhou Charter has judged from the ballistics of the shells that the artillery positions of the Qing army should be on the southeast side of the cliff. According to the consistent style of the Qing army, their headquarters should be with the artillery positions. This is an unwritten rule of the Qing army. The commander of the Qing army, who has always been cowardly, took it for granted that the artillery position was the safest place. In the First Sino-Japanese War, this deployment of the Qing army gave the Japanese a big advantage. In many cases, the Japanese would take over the artillery positions and headquarters of the Qing army.

However, in China, when dealing with revolutionaries with no military experience and poor equipment, the Qing army still abides by this timid tactical principle.

On the lake, four troop carriers are less than 500 meters away from the shore of the lake.

Zhou Charter took Ge Yunhao and Jiang Naiwu through the reeds on the shore of the lake. On the land outside the reeds, there are full of soldiers with live ammunition, lying behind the big trees under the mound, facing the cliff.

Ge Yun gasped while running and said, "Is your name Zhao Pusheng or Jin Chengwu?"

Zhou Charter is both angry and funny. At this time, this girl is still entangled in these little things, which is not important at all.

"My surname is Zhou!" Zhou Charter said angrily.

"Why are you surnamed Zhou again? Which sentence are true?" Ge Yun asked kindly.

"This sentence is true!" Zhou Charter said, "If it's fake, God will split me!"

Zhou Charter made such a heavy oath that Ge Yun no longer doubted: "Then I will call you Brother Zhou." He turned around and shouted to Jiang Naiwu, "Brother Jiang, he is Brother Zhou. He must not lie this time."

Jiang Naiwu snorted and expressed his approval.

Three people bypassed a shallow bay, Zhou Charter waved, and the three fell in the grass.

A small mountain bag appeared in front of him, and there were bursts of smoke on the mountain bag, and there was a dull roar. In the shade of Shanbao, there is a forest. Flags and flags can be faintly seen in the forest, and some Qing soldiers go in and out of the woods.

"There are five wild cannons on the hill, and the forest should be the battalion of the Qing soldiers. If there is no accident, the general of the Qing soldiers should be Yan Qionglin." Zhou Charter said.

"How do you know?" Jiang Naiwu asked.

"I'm a spy, of course I know everything!" Zhou Charter said angrily.

Ge Yunhao, "Brother Zhou, we blamed you wrongly. Don't be angry."

"I don't have time to be angry with you!" Zhou Charter said, "I calculated it by the launch frequency of the ballistics of the wild cannon."

A team of Qing soldiers lined up in the forest. Qiu Jin, Tang Qunying and Shi Zhongji were tied up and walked among the Qing soldiers. A battalion officer sat on horseback, waved a whip in his hand and show off his power.

"Sister Qiu is injured!" Ge Yun said. Qiu Jin's chest was covered with blood.

Jiang Naiwu jumped and was about to rush up and fell to the ground by Zhou Charter: "Listen! I'm the commander! Get down!"

Jiang Naiwu lay on the ground honestly. He completely convinced the surname Zhou.

The Qing soldiers took Qiu Jin and the three of them to the south side of the forest and tied them to a big tree. The camp officer jumped off his horse and cursed Qiu Jin and others. The Qing soldiers scattered around, sitting or lying down, and some people simply fell asleep.

Zhou Charter's mouth emitted a slight sneer. After experiencing the First Sino-Japanese War, the Qing army's tactical literacy has not changed, even worse than before.

Zhou Charter said, "You wait here. I touched the hill and blew up their artillery positions. The explosion on the hill, the Qing army must be chaotic. You take advantage of the chaos to rescue Sister Qiu and others, and then move to the cliff.

"Can you blow up their cannons?" Jiang Naiwu didn't believe it.

Before Zhou Charter could reply, Ge Yun said, "Brother Zhou can definitely do it."

Zhou Charter sighed in his heart that if a girl believes in a person, she will have no reservation. At the beginning, Jin Shu was like this.

A good man can't live up to a girl's trust!

Zhou Charter handed the rifle to Jiang Naiwu, changed a bayonet, touched the fairy on his chest, and crawled to the hill.

......

Shanghai Daotai government.

Huang Zunxian, the master of Daotai, bowed and stood in the lobby of the government gate. Under the high plaque of the mirror, an old man with a strong and white beard sat on the seat of the master of Daotai.

The old man was dressed in an official uniform, with bright eyes, a gloomy face, and not angry. This old man is Liu Kunyi, the governor of Liangjiang.

Huang Zunxian is an enlightened bureaucrat and a rare official in the Qing Dynasty who can open his eyes to see the world. In 1877, Huang Zunxian, who accompanied his ambassador to Japan, He Ruzhang, was once called China's "most elegant and well-bred diplomatic diplomat" by Japanese historians. Later, he served as the second-class counselor in the United Kingdom and the consul general in Singapore. During the First Sino-Japanese War, Huang Zunxian was recalled to the country and served as the General Office of the Jiangning Ocean Affairs Bureau. After the war, he was appointed as Shanghai Daotai.

Huang Zunxian was born in the formal imperial examination, the college examination, the township examination, the palace examination, the scholar, the lifter, and the scholar. He came through it step by step. Speaking of which, he is a vested interest in the imperial examination. However, he hates the imperial examination. As a rare diplomatic official in the Qing Dynasty, Huang Zunxian traveled overseas and highly respected the Western education system. When Kang Youwei proposed to abolish the imperial examination, set up a Western school, and change the law, Huang Zunxian did not hesitate to stand on the position of the newists and echoed with the newists.

After coming to Shanghai, Huang Zunxian, Liang Qichao and Wang Kangnian founded the Times and vigorously advocated the idea of innovation and change.

The main writer of the Times is Liang Qichao, the manager is Wang Kangnian, and Huang Zunxian is the behind-the-scenes planner of the Times.

Liang Qichao's large pen is the essence of the Times. His writing is sharp, excellent, radical and self-contained. Even the old-fashioned bureaucrats have to be impressed by Liang Qichao's writing. Many old princes and ministers hold the time newspaper while reading and scolding, but they are surprised and can't wait. Waiting for the arrival of the next issue.

Liang Qichao is the backbone of the new school, but Wang Kangnian is from Zhang Zhidong.

In the late Sino-Japanese War, Liu Kunyi, the governor of the two rivers, presided over the war against Japan, and Zhang Zhidong acted as the governor of the two rivers and came to Nanjing from Wuhan. After the war, Zhang Zhidong returned to Wuhan and continued to serve as the governor of Huguang.

Zhang Zhidong agrees with the transformation, but does not agree with Kang Youwei's path of transformation, and maintains a close relationship with the Weixin faction. At the opening of the Times, Zhang Zhidong was worried that the Times would become the mouthpiece of the Weixin faction, so he sent his confidant Wang Kangnian to Shanghai to cooperate with Liang Qichao.

The fundamental purpose of the two sides is the same. Liang Qichao knows that Wang Kangnian is Zhang Zhidong's confidant, but he is also happy to cooperate and Huang Zunxian's behind-the-scenes operation. At the beginning of the launch of the Times, it became famous and became one of the influential publications in the country.

However, as Liang Qichao's pen became sharper and sharper, a crack began to appear between Liang Qichao and Wang Kangnian. Wang Kangnian believed that Zhang Zhidong was doing* and intervened in the editor of the Times to try to prevent Liang Qichao from making radical remarks that stimulated the court authorities. However, Liang Qichao did not give in.

Zhang Zhidong knew that Liang Qichao dared to challenge Wang Kangnian, and he was supported by Huang Zunxian.
