ideal era

Song Jiaoren looked up at the sky. The sky is the color of autumn, like the beauty of blue and white porcelain, depicting the most touching and sad story. The sky is high and far away, and you can reach out and feel within reach. At this moment, the prospect of the Wuchang Revolution is also as beautiful as the weather, and the victory is close at hand, which seems to be within reach.

Song Jiaoren followed Huang Xing to get off the boat. Huang Xing is from the north, tall and burly, with the demeanor of a straight general. Song Jiaoren is elegant and young, and his beards are trimmed just right.

Wenchangmen has gathered a large group of people, and the vigorous military and political leaders of the Red Mansion in Wuchang are all there.

Huang Xing, the number two figure of the alliance, arrived. Li Yuanhong and Tang Hualong believed that the show must be vigorous. It is not only for the military and civilians of Wuchang, but also for the military and civilian of Hankou. For this reason, they delayed a lot of relationship and invited reporters from the People's Daily. In Wuchang City, there are soldiers walking around, holding high the flag, and writing three big words: "Huang Xing has arrived!" The cheers of the soldiers and civilians in Wuchang resounded for several miles.

The momentum of welcoming Huang Xing is extremely successful, which is mostly due to the weight of the word Huang Xing itself. Huang Xing's prestige is a knife and a shot, fought with the blood of the dead. This revolutionary banner was written by Huang Xing with his own blood.

Seeing such a warm welcome scene, the blood in Huang Xing's chest surged. After years of revolution, I am willing to be born and die for my ideals. I didn't ask for anything in return, but today's warm welcome is the greatest understanding of his years of revolution and the most touching reward. Huang Xing thought that this time in Wuhan, even if another finger is dropped, it is nothing! As a revolution, it has died without regret. A man like Huang Xing only felt a strange nourishment in his eyes, which was already full of tears.

Seeing this scene, Li Yuanhong and Tang Hualong exchanged eyes and saw each other's pride.

Seeing that Huang Xing was so moved, he was so happy that Li Yuanhong came out of the crowd, took his hand and shouted, "Brother Keqiang, come here, Wuhan is very lucky! Fortunately for the revolution!"

The honest and loyal Huang Xing was so moved that he was about to fall down, and also kindly pulled Li Yuanhong's fat hand to call him brother.

In the evening, Li Yuanhong and Sun Wu held a grand welcome party for Huang and Song. After the meeting, the military and political leaders sat and talked in the conference hall of the governor's office. After Li Yuanhong briefly introduced the war in Hankou, he talked about Feng Guozhang.

"Feng Huafu, I know that as soon as he comes, it will be difficult to fight!" Li Yuanhong had a relationship with Feng Guozhang in Yongping. He was really afraid of Feng Guozhang. Li Yuanhong's exclamation was by no means a false threat.

Li wants to make good use of strange soldiers in the war. He seems to be bold and adventurous, but in fact, he has a precise layout. Therefore, Li wants to win every battle, not accidental luck, but tough strength. After that, Li Yuanhong studied Li Xiang's example. From time to time, he sweated coldly. Li Xiang was by no means a lucky person. Li wanted to call for wind and rain in Hubei. Feng Guozhang quietly occupied Wusheng Pass and gained the momentum of building a high house for Hubei. Li wants to lose his previous advantage of working hard in Hubei in an instant. It can be seen that Feng Guozhang is more powerful, or Yuan Shikai behind Feng Guozhang is more powerful.

Li Yuanhong has deduced countless things on the war map. Even if he hosts it himself, he may not do better than Li Xiang. In fact, what Li Yuanhong admires Li Xiang most is that he recovered the Hankou Concession. This not only made Li Xiang's voice soar in the hearts of the people, but also the people in Wuchang have offered him as a national hero like Lord Yue. After driving away the foreign consul, he firmly covered the money bag of Hankou, and the income of tariff alone exceeded hundreds of millions. Therefore, Li Xiang can be very generous and generous to exempt agricultural taxes, exempt from harsh and miscellaneous taxes, and win the full support of the people of Hubei, as well as the full support of the Hubei business community.

The insurgents everywhere are poor, but this Li wants to be rich. Those poor and crazy insurgents have no choice but to eat large families in a local way. As a thing, the Hubei gentry had no way to go, so they all went to Li Xiang to seek protection. Although Li wants to make a big rent reduction, at least he won't eat big families. Because of his sufficient funds, Li wants to play more and more smoothly in Hubei. Recently, his Xinhua consortium withdrew its investment from Hong Kong and settled in Hankou, setting off an investment boom in Hankou. I heard that Li wants to build a bank in Hankou and print money. He won't worry about having no money to spend in the future.

Li Yuanhong thought about Li Xiang, but he was powerless to be jealous of him. What Li Xiang got was all with his own courage. With Li Yuanhong's courage, he did not dare to fire at foreigners. There are many people in the world who dare to revolutionize, but not many foreigners dare to fight. Since the year of Gengzi, he has not heard anyone shouting to beat the foreign devils. The last words left by Li Hongzhang have become the best excuse not to provoke foreigners. In the past few decades, every time I have made a provocation, I will suffer one more loss. Only the life is boring to provoke foreigners. Li Xiang is such a lively person.

Even if foreigners can't spare their hands to pinch Li Xiang for the time being, when the world is settled, foreigners will also ask the government in power to punish Li Xiang. Foreigners have always been cruel when doing this kind of thing. All the officials who resisted when the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China were cleaned up. From the prince to the subordinate officials, they were widely involved, and the Qing Dynasty was unprecedented. It also makes the vast majority of China no longer able to resist the foreigners. Li Yuanhong couldn't help but feel a trace of regret for Li Xiang. Originally, he had a good future, the founder of the Republic of China, and he was also a good ability to go to the battlefield, which was cut off by a momentary impulse. It's a pity to avoid such a hero's ending.

Song Jiaoren has been observing the words and deeds of Li Yuanhong and Sun Wu. Hearing what he said, he was quite disapproving. Hubei has been fully restored, and the People's Daily boasted of the gathering of 500,000 troops in the Northern Expedition to the East. Zhang Xiyuan, a pioneer of the Beiyang Army, had been defeated and captured alive, and Feng Guozhang went to Wushengguan. Hunan and Shaanxi responded that the revolutionary situation could not be better. At this moment, Li Yuanhong's sincere and serious words became alarmist in Song Jiaoren's ears.

Song Jiaoren said rudely, "Don't grow other people's ambition!" Li wants to have a series of victories in Hubei. Is the report of the People's Daily all fake news? Feng Guozhang entered Wu Shengguan. Even if Li Xiang had no choice but to take him for a while, as soon as Brother Keqiang arrived, he had his own way to retreat from the enemy, didn't he? When he spoke, he asked Huang Xing with his eyes.

Song Jiaoren is just a scholar, and he doesn't know anything about the shape of Wu Shengguan. He knew Li Xiang very well. The two met through Du Xinwu's introduction and talked for a long time all night. It feels like Li Xiang is more pompous than Chen Zuoxin. His three-inch tongue can shine a lotus flower, which is reasonable and well-founded to distort Mr. Sun Yat-sen's three democratic [righteousness]. That night, Song Jiaoren was so angry that he refused Li's application to join the Alliance. In Song Jiaoren's impression, Li Xiang, such a pompous person can kill such a good revolutionary base in Hubei, so Huang Xing, who has always been pragmatic and steady, is opening up two lakes of military and politics, and it is not easy to overturn the whole Qing Dynasty.

"Where, where, the war depends on everyone, and the war depends on everyone. Moreover, Li Xiang did a good job in Hubei, and the battle was extremely beautiful. Huang Xing is very modest, to be honest. Huang Xing has recently been in the People's Daily. The articles that have been polished by Li Xiangyu's pen and Xinhua News Agency reporters have written down the battlefield that has made men's blood boil. Those behind-the-scenes stories that make people's blood boil, tears, and adrenal hormones are soaring. Many young people, ignited by the articles of the People's Daily, were ignited with blood, youth and ideals, and rushed from all over the country to Hankou to participate in the revolution. Huang Xing read the newspaper on the boat, and he didn't know how many times he was excited. Now I'm patient with socializing, and I don't know how anxious I am about Hankou.

Li Yuanhong was a little embarrassed: "Yes, Mr. Huang is a revolutionary. He will definitely defeat Feng Huafu, and he will definitely defeat Feng Huafu!" In his heart, he thought that if Li, who was full of bad spirits, was not sure to deal with Feng Guozhang, what would Huang Xing, who was honest with bananas, take to deal with Feng Guozhang? Li Yuanhong finally praised what his old disciple gave him. Even if he wanted to, Sun Wu might not be willing. Don't they think of Hunan fellow villagers with Li? Isn't Lixiang a student who claims to be a student of Sun Yat-sen? Go to Li and ask for money. Li wants to have a lot of money and soldiers. It only depends on whether he is willing to be this big resentment.

Sun Wu's drum eyes dripped, and his mouth was very unnaturally attached: "Yes, yes."

Jiang Yiwu said, "Before the revolution, we had an invitation to invite Mr. Huang to Hubei to preside over the overall situation. Now Mr. Huang has come, and Mr. Song has also come. They are all famous revolutionary leaders in the country, with prestige and ability. We should immediately support Mr. Huang as the governor of the two lakes. As for the war, Mr. Huang and Mr. Song are in command in Wuchang. Let's just do it!"

Cai Jimin and Xiong Bingkun immediately agreed, forming a one-sided situation for a while. Huang Xing looked at Li Yuanhong and Sun Wu with his eyes. They also smiled dryly and agreed.

Song Jiaoren winctued at Huang Xing to make a statement. Huang Xing and others calmed down and began to speak: "Huang really dares not obey everyone's praise. If I haven't made any achievements, how can I be a big governor? I'm here to work for the revolution. I'd better cross the river first to see how the military is!"

In fact, Huang Xing wants to see Li Xiang. Li Xiang is an important person in Hubei, and he didn't participate in such an important meeting today. Although Song Jiaoren repeatedly assured Huang Xing that Li Xiang was a general figure, Huang Xing was worried. After all, Li Xiang was not Jiao Dafeng, an old member of the Alliance. He, the governor of the two lakes, didn't get Li Xiang's consent today, and he didn't count after going out.

Song Jiaoren also heard Huang Xing's worry and was about to speak, but Sun Wu took the lead: "Brother Keqiang has always been good at military affairs. There must be a way to save the war in Hubei and defeat Feng Guozhang in one fell swoop. When Brother Keqiang arrived in Hankou, Li thought that he would not go upside down to meet him.

Sun Wu knows Li Xiang's character, and no one in Wuchang can cure him at all. When he heard that Huang Xing wanted to go to Hankou first, he quickly encouraged him.

Although Song Jiaoren and Sun Wu are very familiar with each other, they also know who he is. Hearing what he said, he became more vigilant. At this time, Sun Wu said again: "However, our Marshal Li is a busy person. He fought everywhere in Hubei, often on the battlefield in person. At this moment, he is not in Hankou, or he will definitely come to Wuchang to welcome Brother Keqiang in person. I think you two have worked hard all the way. It's better to take a few days off first. I sent someone to Hankou to listen to the news. Something big happened in Hankou the day before yesterday. I guess Marshal Li should also come back soon. Tomorrow, I will first spread the news of Brother Keqiang's arrival in Han, so as to strengthen the prestige of our army!"

"That's a great idea! With Mr. Huang's name, he can be scared of Feng Guozhang's courage!" Someone added this sentence again.

Everyone was encouraged by their idea and talked about it for a while.

It's not easy for Song Jiaoren to mention the governor of the two lakes. He was trapped by the big incident in Hankou that Sun Wu said. Song Jiaoren and others were on the boat and didn't know what happened in Hankou. This must be a big trouble. Sun Wu said it ominously, so when people heard Sun Wu mention it, his ambiguous expression was even more strange. Everyone talked about it during the banquet, but unconsciously avoided talking about the name Li Xiang, which must have nothing to do with Li Xiang.
