270 ride the wind and break the waves

Li wanted to change his sitting posture in the chair and meditated, "The business group has a negative attitude of neither opposing nor distrusting the revolution because it has not seen the situation clearly."

Li Xiang still moved his body uncomfortably and simply changed his comfortable posture and lay on the chair. It happened that there were only a few chairs and a complete cushion.

Lv Zhongqiu suddenly wanted to tell Li Xiang that he had heard about the legend about Xiyintang, the legend about Zhao Fengchang and Zhang Qian, but he still resisted. These were just rumors, and he had no evidence.

"With our two great victories in Hubei and the development of the revolutionary situation, they feel that the storm is coming. Some major figures secretly meet in the Nanshi Firefighting Federation every night to discuss the principles and measures to deal with the changes in the current situation. At these meetings, the conservative forces that advocate a bloodless revolution still have the upper hand. "

A gentle and sarcastic smile appeared on Li Xiang's face and said, "It's expected. You can see such a group of people in many restored provinces, typical revolutionary speculators.

"It is undeniable. But there are also real revolutionaries." Lv Zhongqiu took the opportunity to say, "When Li Yingshi was studying in Japan in his early years, he was deeply influenced by Mr. Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary ideas and strongly supported the armed uprising, so he accepted the proposal of the Central League and won Li Pingshu and most of the legislators to participate in the armed uprising with clan and world relations. Li Yingshi was Li Pingshu's nephew and discussed with the majority. Members are world friends. He and Niu Yongjian, a member of the League, who had just returned from Europe to respond to the revolution, went to the secret meeting held every night by the autonomous office to introduce the revolutionary ideas of the League and the history of Chen Yingshi to the parliamentarians. Therefore, the legislators led by Li Pingshu and the heads of the business group were determined to participate in the revolutionary uprising, and decided on Shanghai's policy according to Nanjing's actions.

"Real?" Li wanted to smile and asked, "Since then, the headquarters of the Central League, the Shanghai branch of the Restoration Association and Li Yingshi have cooperated with each other?"

"The headquarters of the Central League, the Shanghai branch of the Restoration Association and Li Yingshi cooperated with each other and carried out a series of military organization activities." Lv Zhongqiu shrugged his head and said, "First of all, through the Military National Federation of Military Students in Japan, the students who returned to Japan were mobilized to participate in the uprising. The main members were Pan Yinfo, Li Min, Liu Jiyan, etc. Jiang Zhiqing (Jiang Guangtou), a returned student, was also one of them, and later served as the Shanghai Military Standard. Secondly, Li Xie, the head of the Shanghai branch of the Restoration Society, accepted the jointly agreed action plan and strived for the Xiang officers and soldiers stationed in Wusong and Zhabei Qing court military and police in Baoshan County to participate in the uprising. Thirdly, according to the actual situation of the revolutionary military forces at that time, striving for the uprising of the Shanghai Business Group is the key to the success of Shanghai's restoration.

Li Xiang nodded, and Lv Zhongqiu continued to say, "At first, the business groups in Shanghai were lax and fragmented. In addition, the personnel were complex and the factional was deeply predeed, and they could not unite. Through the mediation and persuasion of Li Pingshu, the thoughts of cadres were unified. Finally, on November 1, the morning of September 11 of the old calendar of 1911, The business association gathered more than 2,000 members of the 23 business leagues and held a grand review ceremony on the playground of nine mu of the city. Li Yingshi was invited to serve as the review officer. After he expounded his military views and introduced his experience, everyone was very impressed, so the business groups from all walks of life elected Li Yingshi as the commander-in-chief of the Shanghai business group and was responsible for directing the coach. Through this big review, the Shanghai Business Group has greatly consolidated its own organization and inspired the fighting spirit of revolutionaries. In order to cover up the intention of the uprising, it is said publicly that in order to better protect local public security, the Shanghai Business Group invited the officers of the Ninth Town to come to Shanghai to strengthen the training of the Business Group.

Li Xiang could only nod and said, "They can think of such a lame excuse, and the officials of the Qing Dynasty also believe it."

"At that time, the officials of Manqing in Shanghai were completely ostrich and pretended not to see." Lv Zhongqiu sneered and said, "At that time, there were six commanders under the General Headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce: Shanghai Society Chamber of Commerce, Mu Shu was the commander; the Chamber of Commerce of Yu Society, Yu Huaizhi was the commander; the Shanghai West Chamber of Commerce, Wu Huaigui was the commander; the Commercial Gymnastics Chamber of Commerce, nominally Li Pingshu was the commander, and Li appointed as the acting commander of Zhu Shaoyi; Commercial Tutorship Association The regiment, Su Benyan was the commander, and the deputy commander appointed by Su has been forgotten; the Zhabei Business Group, Qian Guishan was the commander, and was later succeeded by Yin Cunfu. The commanders of each commercial regiment are responsible for leading the drill and command of their unit's regiment members. Therefore, at that time, there were six commercial regiment commanders in Nanshi, Huxi and Zhabei at the same time. In the future, the operational orders of the commander-in-chief of the commercial regiment were handed over to these six commanders for execution, and the command was relatively flexible. At that time, although Li Yingshi was the commander-in-chief of the business group, he issued an order to the uprising Qing army in the name of "representative of the civilian army". On the afternoon of September 13 of the old calendar, the business group that attacked Shanghai Chengxiang was the Shanghai Society, the business community and the western Shanghai three units; the two units that followed Yang Pusheng to attack the Manufacturing Bureau were Shangyu and Shangbu. When the manufacturing bureau was besieged at night, Mu Shuzai of the Shanghai Society, Yu Huaizhi of Shang Yu, Wu Guigui in western Shanghai and the commander of Shang Bu were all present, leading the members of the unit to accept the command of the commander-in-chief and attack in stages. The commercial gymnastics group in charge of Li Pingshu and the entrusted acting commander Zhu Shaoyi and the staff officer Gao Yimou stayed in the General Headquarters of the Mao Family Business Group as vigilance liaison.

"They are much stricter than our hasty plan." Li thought that he didn't like it.

"Definitely," Lv Zhongqiu said too fast and did not pay attention to Li Xiang's face. "When attacking the manufacturing bureau, Li Yingshi not only directly commanded the combat troops at the scene, but also contacted the business groups in Zhabei and other regions and issued orders. Ma Bing informed Gao Yimou, the staff officer of the General Headquarters of the Commercial League, to use the phone or send Ma soldiers to transfer. Know everywhere. At that time, only the Shanghai and Western Business Group had a horse team among the business groups. When attacking the city, they served as communication contacts. When attacking the manufacturing bureau, they rode behind Li Yingshi to convey orders and scout the situation at any time. On November 1, 1991, on September 11, the evening of the old calendar, when a secret meeting was held at the Autonomous Office, the Central Alliance decided to overturn Shanghai's previous proposal based on Nanjing's move, and strived for the main parliamentarians and the head of the business group to agree to the new decision of Shanghai's first trouble. There was a fierce debate for this. Alliance members Niu Yongjian and Ye Zengming who attended the meeting took the lead in supporting the proposal of "Shanghai moves first, Suzhou and Hangzhou respond", but some legislators were still hesitant. Vice Speaker Wu Huai felt guilty that Shanghai's Bingbei Road had a left battalion government gate in Songjiang and a right battalion government gate in Suzhou. If Shanghai first revolted, the Qing army of Song and Su might quickly There is a lot of resistance to reinforcements in Shanghai. Niu Yongjian immediately stood up and said, "Liu Zhihao, the leader of Suzhou Mixed Association, has agreed to the uprising. I immediately went to Songjiang to respond and cut off the Qing court's reinforcements. After Niu Yongjian's victory in the Songjiang Uprising, he served as the Minister of Military and Political Affairs of Songjiang. So most of them first launched through Shanghai, and Suzhou and Hangzhou responded, and then attacked Nanjing. On the evening of November 2, when the autonomous office held a secret meeting, the Central Alliance Chen Yingshi, Yang Pusheng, Gao Zibai and others all attended the meeting. At this time, Wuchang was in a bad situation..."

"Huang Xing suffered a big defeat in Xiaogan!" Li wanted to frown.

"Yes!" Lv Zhongqiu sighed softly. Hanyang has lost news, and it is urgent for Shanghai to launch an uprising. Therefore, with the consent of the majority of the participants, it was decided to launch at the same time in Shanghai South City, Baoshan and Zhabei at 4 p.m. the next day, and it was presumed that Li Yingshi was the commander of military operations to organize and command military operations. At this time, the headquarters of the Central Alliance and the Shanghai branch of the Restoration Association have decided to work together and take concerted action in military operations. The whole combat deployment is divided into three aspects: Zhabei aims at the General Directorate of Patrol, Chengxiang aims at the Susong Taihu Military and Road Administration, and the south of the city targets the Jiangnan Machine Manufacturing Bureau. In terms of troop deployment, Zhabei is dominated by the insurgent police of the General Patrol Police Department, and the business group cooperates with the action; the inside and outside of the city of Nanshi is dominated by commercial groups, supplemented by the insurgent police; the attack on the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau is dominated by the death squad organized by Chen Yingshi, supplemented by the internal uprising Qing army within the business group and the manufacturing bureau. At that time, the Shanghai branch had instigated Chen Hanqing, the cavalry patrol officer of the General Directorate of Patrol, to respond to the uprising in Zhabei, and Huang Hanxiang, the inspector of the Patrol Police Bureau, had been instigated to respond to the uprising in Wusong. In addition, Li Zhengwu, the leader of the Zhabei Association, also organized death squads to respond to the uprising. Mu Shu, the police chief of Nanshi, agreed to lead the police inside and outside the city to respond to the uprising. Generally speaking, the situation before the Shanghai Uprising is favorable. The organization of armed forces, the disintegration of the enemy and the entire combat deployment are quite perfect and relatively smooth.

"The distribution of the Qing army before the restoration of Shanghai?" Li wanted to inquire and turned his eyes to Lv Zhongqiu.

"The Qing court military police stationed on both sides of the Wusong and Shanghai Huangpu River before the restoration of Shanghai," Lv Zhongqiu said, "There were more than 10,000 Qing court army police officers stationed in Shanghai. After the uprising, they all participated in the revolutionary army. Only the defeat of the Green Battalion fled to Taihu Lake without surrendering and became bandits."

Li Xiang shook his head and said, "The movement before the restoration of Shanghai focuses on propaganda and agitation. It is normal to be able to fool the military and police to participate in the revolution. The secret agencies are all located in the concession, but the armed forces are concentrated in the business group organizations in China. It is a hidden danger not to do anything about the alliance.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh," Lv Zhongqiu once again, he was in awe of General Li. The revolutionary will is not firm, so that the Northern Expedition is now procrastinating.

"I will encourage them to carry out the revolution to the end together." At this moment, Li Xiang's mind has already flown to Shanghai.

A bloody battle has stood firm in Hankou. However, his rise is still too fast. In the eyes of those old revolutionaries and local power factions, he is an upstart, and his unstable foundation is even more obvious. The situation depends on strength. In addition to soldiers, he also needs to have his own industry to support the army, which is why he is so eager to recover the concession.

If Yuan Shikai is in power, not only will he give up halfway in the 1911 Revolution, but he will also have great trouble in Hubei. Yuan Shikai cleaned up the alliance meeting and spared his hands to definitely pull out his side thorn.

Li wanted to stand up, pushed the door and walked out of the cabin. When Lv Zhongqiu saw his behavior, he didn't care that he was still seasick, so he had no choice but to follow.

The Yangtze River flows eastward, thousands of hectares of waves, riding the wind and waves.

Li wanted to run to the bow, stretched his neck, and roared: "Shanghai Beach! I'm coming!"
