<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="104" >, Tan Yanmin as overseer</h1>
He Long left Sang Zhi and rushed to Lizhou, where he learned that the troops had arrived in Changsha and rushed towards Changsha. On this day, I came to Yiyang, walked to the city gate and looked up, and saw that the city gate was illuminated, the city was burning firecrackers, and the drums were moving in unison. He Long wondered in his heart, so he got off his horse and walked slowly.
Walking to the Great Cross Street, I saw that there were many people around the street, a handsome young man, who was speaking there, which won the applause of many people.
He Long squeezed over to listen, and it turned out that the man was counting Yuan Shikai's crimes and the crimes of the Beiyang warlords. He Long listened and learned that Yuan Shikai was dead.
At first, he was still a little disbelieving, but then he asked a few people around him, and he realized that it was true. I couldn't help but feel a pang of happiness in my heart, and I left the crowd.
At this time, it was nearly noon, and I felt hungry in my stomach, so I went into a restaurant and asked for four dishes and half a pound of wine.
After He Long wanted to come to the wine, he said to the treasurer: "Friend, come, drink two cups in one piece." ”
The treasurer wanted to resign, he Long said: "Yuan Shikai is dead, this is a big day, a piece of happiness and happiness." ”
The treasurer saw He Long warmly invited, he was also a sociable person, so he smiled and squinted, and asked the guys to fry two dishes, and drank with He Long at the table. He Long then asked, "Where did this gentleman who spoke outside come from?" ”
The treasurer said: "It's a student, called Guo Liang, don't look at the age is not big, the reason is not shallow, I know the bottom of this surprise, when I was a child, I had a lot of courage." When he was 13 years old, the fellow villagers were racing dragon boats on the Xiang River, setting off fireworks, just as the British warship passed through the river, thinking that the shore fired at them, they returned the cannon, thanks to Guo Liang alone to drive the ship, go to the warship to explain the reason, so that a dispute was spared. ”
When the treasurer said this, he said with great admiration: "This Mr. Guo is a remarkable person. ”
When the treasurer said this, He Long couldn't help but admire it, he really wanted to go and talk to Guo Liang. As soon as he looked up, Guo Liang had finished his speech and left there. He Long ate and saw that it was still early, so he bid farewell to the treasurer and continued to ride his horse to Changsha.
He Long walked all the way and listened to people talk about Tan Yanmin's appointment as an overseer. The sullenness in his heart was not to mention.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="103" > second, Tan Yanmin hired He Long</h1>
Why didn't He Long want Tan Yanmin to be the Overseer? Here's why.
Tan Yanzhou, who had a very lively head and was good at watching the wind and steering, entered the army in 1904 and taught the Hanlin Academy to edit, returning to Hunan in the same year. In September 1906, the Qing government promulgated a preparatory constitutional edict, prepared to set up a senior government in Beijing, and set up an advisory bureau in the provincial capitals, Tan Yanmin and some constitutionalists organized the "Hunan Constitutional Convention" and became the head of the Hunan constitutionalist faction.
After the outbreak of the Wuchang Uprising in October 1911, the Hunan revolutionaries, under the leadership of Jiao Dafeng, the leader of the "Communist Progressive Association", actively prepared for the uprising. At this time, Tan Yanmin also turned the rudder with the wind and speculated to echo the revolution.
On October 22, the Changsha Uprising was victorious, and the revolutionaries Jiao Dafeng and Chen Zuoxin were elected as the governor and deputy governor.
The constitutionalists' goal of seizing power was unsuccessful, so on the one hand they spread rumors, slandered Jiao Dafeng, Chen Zuoxin, and others, provoked the relations between the gentry and the new army and the governor's office, and on the other hand, took advantage of Japan to "advocate democracy" and forced Jiao and Chen to set up a "Hunan Senate" and elected Tan Yanmin min as the president, and almost all of them were members of the former Consultative Bureau.
In this way, the revolutionaries were emptied, and Tan Yan took control of the Hunan regime. Subsequently, Tan secretly plotted an armed coup d'état by the Constitutionalists on October 31, killing the governors Chen and Jiao. Tan became the Governor. After he became governor, he frantically suppressed the uprisings of the people everywhere. In 1912, Yuan Shikai was inaugurated as the provisional president and officially appointed Tan as the governor of Hunan.
In August of the same year, the League was reorganized into the Kuomintang, absorbing a large number of old and new bureaucrats and politicians. Tan Yanmin saw that it was profitable, and also joined the Kuomintang and became the head of the branch.
In July 1913, when Sun Yat-sen launched a second revolution against Yuan, Tan Yanmin, while abolishing independence, killed Liu Xiaoheng and other revolutionaries who resolutely opposed the abolition of independence.
Although Hunan had abolished its independence, although Tan Yanmin confessed to Yuan Shikai that his opposition to Yuan Was not out of his heart, Yuan still ousted him from power and appointed Tang Qianming, deputy commander of the navy, as the governor of Hunan.
Since Cai Yi organized the defending army to beg Yuan, Cheng sneaked back to Hunan to organize the Hunan protector army, and Tang Qianming was forced to declare independence and declare his disassociation from Yuan Shikai, but Tang Qianming was still expelled from power.
Therefore, Huang Xing recommended Tan Yanmin to take over as the overseer of Hunan. Tan Yanmin is capricious, and now that he is an overseer, can He Long be happy?
He Long came to Changsha when Tan Yanmin was appointed as the governor. When he arrived in Changsha, he searched and found Luo Jianqiu in a theater. He Long saw that he was wearing a cupola hat on his head and a collar badge on his shoulder, which was no longer the appearance of the original Luo Jianqiu.
Luo Jianqiu was very happy when he saw He Long. He was just about to speak when He Long split his head and asked, "What about our team?" Luo Jianqiu did not answer, but asked with a smile, "Where do you live now?" ”
"Tongsheng Hotel."
Luo Jianqiu pulled him to the street and asked for a chartered car. When he got on the car, He Long found that luo Jianqiu also had a woman dressed like a delicate person next to him.
Luo Jianqiu then introduced himself to He Long, saying that it was the dancer Chen Xiangxiang who accompanied him to watch the play.
Chen Xiangxiang immediately put Bai Nen's hand and smiled as he reached out to He Long, who turned his hand back as if he hadn't seen it. Chen Xiangxiang was bored. Luo Jianqiu smiled and said to Chen Xiangxiang, "Our brother is an Arhat who practiced in the Tenth Dynasty. ”
Chen Xiangxiang smiled at He Long and said sweetly, "If we are all like this gentleman, we will all starve to death." ”
The three of them got into a chartered bus and went to the Overseer's Mansion. Luo Jianqiu arranged for Chen Xiangxiang to entertain He Long.
It turned out that after this Luo Jianqiu brought He Long's team starting with two kitchen knives to Changsha, he handed it over to Tan Yanwen and was recruited. Using the "blood of He Long's two kitchen knives", he changed the title of "Provincial Governor's Palace Gujian" for himself, 800 yuan per month, and found a two-story building with a quiet environment, spending days and drinks every day to enjoy a blessed life.
At the moment, the two entered the living room, Luo Jianqiu untied his belt, took off his military uniform, and had the old mother brew tea. Luo Jianqiu then asked, "Wen Chang, is Ling Tang well?" ”
In a word, he touched the hero's sadness again, and he couldn't help but roll tears in his eyes. As soon as He Long burst into tears, Luo Jianqiu found that He Long was wearing white cloth shoes.
He was a wise man, known to be unpredictable, and did not ask again, but handed He Long a cigarette and said: "Life and death are by fate, riches are in heaven, this is the old lady's life expectancy." ”
He Long did not pick up the cigarette, "bang" a fist on the table, fiercely scolded: "Do not shovel the evil of the world, I He Long will not die!" ”
Then he told the story of the murder of his brother-in-law and the death of his mother. Luo Jianqiu naturally sighed, and then said: "Wen Chang, Yuan Shikai has gone to the Western Heavens, and the revolution has succeeded." ”
He Long raised an eyebrow and said, "Yuan Shikai, the old king's eight eggs, has returned to heaven, but his disciples and disciples, Sun Xiaowang's eight eggs, are still rampant, how can it be said that they have succeeded?" ”
Luo Jianqiu smiled, "Wen Chang, you are just too serious, the great world, how can we all follow our wishes?" Luo Jianqiu said, "Well, brother, let's not talk about this, I'll give you something to see." ”
As he spoke, he took out a letter of appointment from the drawer, and it turned out that Tan Yanmin had appointed He Long as a senior advisor to the Overseer's Office, with a monthly salary of 500 yuan.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="102" > third, He Long left in a negative atmosphere</h1>
He Long glanced at the appointment and asked, "What about our team?" ”
Luo Jianqiu still did not answer directly, he lit a cigarette, slowly inhaled, and said: "Wen Chang, I know your ambition, I want to fight for the poor world, but in this world, at this time, have you not seen clearly?" Sun Yat-sen struggled for so many years, and this ancient Chinese country has only changed its banner, the rich are still rich, and the poor are still poor. ”
He squirted his cigarette and said, "I have seen through it, no matter who is in charge, it is for himself, and no one is for himself. ”
He sighed and said, "In one lifetime, the grass and trees are autumn, and when you have to be happy, you are happy." Commander Wang Wenhua has now returned to Guizhou and become his official.
You are in your early 20s, it is a good time to be happy, and there are 500 yuan of Ding Dangxiang ocean every month, which is a good day.
When he said this, He Long slammed his fist on the table again, shaking the water out of the tea bowl.
He asked sharply, "Luo Jianqiu, let me ask you again, what about my team?!" ”
When Luo Jianqiu saw He Long's face full of anger, he really moved his liver fire, and his heart couldn't help but feel hairy.
However, he still said with a smile on his face: "Wen Chang, I know that it is not easy for you to pull up the team, and now there is a fashionable saying, you haven't heard of it, have you?" ”
When Luo Jianqiu said this, he stood up, took a full puff of his cigarette, and said, "To be a palace, first pull the team, and then be recruited." ”
He handed the letter of appointment to He Long again, and said kindly: "500 oceans per month is not less, marry Mrs. Fang again, and live a good life." Tell you, our brothers are not bad, they are all organized into various teams, probably to the yueyang area, and they have all become officials. ”
He Long took the letter of appointment, kneaded it into a ball, drew a match and lit it, and when Luo Jianqiu had taken it, the letter of appointment had burned a corner. He Long stood up and said, "I really didn't expect you to be like this!" After saying that, he "stared" and walked out.
Luo Jianqiu chased out a few steps and shouted, "Wen Chang, if there is anything that needs me to do, come to me." ”
He Longtou did not return and left.
He Long came to the street in a huff, only to feel that the blood around him was gushing upwards, and his lips were a little hesitant, he couldn't help but think of the death of his brother-in-law and mother, think of Zhu Scar, Chen Heiman, etc., and think of Tan Yanmin and Luo Jianqiu.
He scolded in his heart: "Those who are harming the people are still rampant, how can we say that the revolution has succeeded?" Without the team, how can the sister and mother's revenge be repaid? What if Scars and his gang continue to run amok? The more He Long thought about it, the more annoyed he became, so he walked aimlessly on the street.
At that time, Changsha was a scene of ruin and slaughter, on the one hand, the lights and wine of the gentry and officials, and on the other hand, the hunger and cold of the poor people. He Long was walking on the street and heard Hanako begging along the street singing with ox crotch: "In the year of the Republic of China, improve and wear at any time." Everything should be fashionable, and clothes should change at any time. The thin have to become fat, and the poor suffer. ”
At this time, a few children came over, stretched out their dirty hands to ask him for money, he touched it, and threw the few copper plates on his body to them.
He Long was wandering the streets, and suddenly he saw a small leaflet posted on the wall, he looked at it, and saw that it said: "Yuan Shikai died, drove away Tang Qianming, came Tan Yanmin, and the people were even more poor." After taking a few steps, there was another leaflet that read: "This world is in a terrible way, the poor are too poor to be poor, the rich are too rich to be rich, and they cannot rebel without rising up." ”
He Long couldn't help but shout, "Well written!" This world is the poor and the poor, the rich and the rich, and they can't rebel without rebellion! ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="67" > Fourth, He Long joined the Chinese Revolutionary Party</h1>
He Long's voice had just fallen, when he suddenly saw a man patting him on the shoulder and saying, "You brother, don't look at your words, XiaoGong arrested you and sent you to prison." ”
He Long looked back and saw that this person was more than 30 years old, wearing a long shirt, wearing a top hat, dressed as a literati, with a clear eyebrow and extraordinary temperament. Without waiting for He Long to open his mouth, the man introduced himself and said, "My name is Guo Hong, and I am a teacher." ”
He Long also reported his name, and Guo Hong listened to it and said very happily: "It turns out that he Long is under the foot?" Look up for a long time! ”
He Long said in surprise, "How do you know me?" ”
Guo Hong said: "I have a cousin who has always been doing business in Xiangxi, and I have heard him talk about fighting the rich and helping the poor, killing corrupt officials, and eliminating villains. ”
He Long sighed and said, "This is all in the past. ”
Guo Hong looked at it, saw that it was not early in the morning, and said: "My home is not far from here, why don't you sit in my house." ”
He Long saw Guo Hong talking happily, and did not prevaricate.
At the moment, the two came to Guo Hong's house. Guo Hong's family only has an old mother, a wife and a young daughter, and his wife is very virtuous. Guo Hong introduced He Long, and she made a pot of tea for the two of them, and then retreated to another room.
It turned out that this Guo Hong was a Member of the Chinese Revolutionary. The Chinese Revolutionary Party was founded in Japan in 1914 after Sun Yat-sen's defeat in courting Yuan.
The two drank tea, and Guo Hong talked to He Long about Sun Yat-sen. For Sun Yat-sen, He Long naturally had great respect.
He said: "Mr. Sun is a great man of a generation, open-minded, honest and selfless, but it is a pity that he was fooled by Yuan Shikai. ”
Guo Hong said: "Recently, when Mr. Zhongshan spoke about the word rights at the welcome meeting of Cantonese parliamentarians in Shanghai, he said that he had a major intention. Mr. Sun said that in a few years, a solemn and splendid Republic of China will appear on the Eastern Continent and dominate the republics of the world. ”
He Long said: "Mr. Sun has put on a liver and gallbladder for the country and the people, and if I can hear Mr. Sun's voice with my own ears and accept his instructions, it is really a blessing in three lifetimes." Don't hide from you, I He Long have a heart for the country and the people, but this momentum does not know how to make it. You see, the team I worked so hard to pull up was recruited by others. ”
Speaking of this, He Long couldn't help but sigh.
Guo Hong said, "Wen Chang, it is really rare that you have this ambition. Since you are determined to follow Mr. Li, why don't you join the Chinese Revolutionary Party founded by Mr. Li? ”
He Long was stunned and said, "When did sir found the Chinese Revolutionary Party?" All I know is that there are leagues. ”
Guo Hong said: "It has been almost two years since the founding of the Chinese Revolutionary Party, which was established in Japan. In order to establish the Chinese Revolutionary Party, he broke with his good friend Huang Xingdu. ”
Guo Hong took a sip of water and said: "Sir, the only purpose of the Chinese Revolutionary Party is to be the realizer of the revolutionary spirit and the doctrine of the Revolution. Gather the revolutionaries of our Party and specialize in the revolutionary cause. ”
Guo Hong, seeing that He Long listened with relish, continued: "The General Chapter of the Chinese Revolutionary Party consists of 12 articles, which are purely designed to ensure a genuine revolutionary party and are subordinate to the command of Mr. Sun alone. ”
After hearing this, He Long couldn't wait to ask: "What procedures do you need to join the Chinese Revolutionary Party?" ”
Guo Hong said: "Someone needs to introduce, write an oath, and beat a handprint." ”
He Long said: "Although the Chinese Revolutionary Party is good, it is a pity that I He Long have nowhere to look!" ”
Guo Hong saw that He Long was sincere, so he said, "If Wen Chang is willing to join, I can be an introducer, but I need another person." ”
After listening to Guo Hong's words, He Long immediately stood up and said in amazement: "Mr. Guo must be a revolutionary." ”
Guo Hong said: "Yes, originally, the identity of the revolutionaries was secret, but today I saw that Wen Chang was sincere, and only then did I dare to tell the truth." ”
He Long said: "Mr. Guo, I He Long would like to join the Chinese Revolutionary Party and accompany Mr. Sun in the vigorous cause of saving the country and the people. I hope Mr. Guo will lead the way. ”
Guo Hong thought about it and said, "Since Wen Chang is sincerely following Mr. Sun's revolution, in this way, I will lead you to meet one person, and he can also be one of the introducers." ”
Guo Hong introduced He Long to a man named Lin Xiumei, a brigade commander of Tan Yanmin's Third Division and a secret revolutionary. Lin Xiumei is an upright and selfless person, and he has a fiery heart to save the country and save the people.
What is even more valuable is that he is brave and strategic, he is clearly the brigade commander in Tan Yanmin's ranks, in fact, he is waiting for an opportunity to instigate this contingent to be commanded by the revolutionary party, and he has secretly developed many revolutionaries. It's just that Tan Yanmin is very powerful and can't start for a while.
At the moment, Guo Hong secretly introduced He Long to Lin Xiumei. He Long had also heard that Lin Xiumei was a general, and after meeting, he talked very speculatively.
Lin Xiumei saw that He Long's appearance was not vulgar, and he also liked it very much. Guo Hong then told the situation and ideas of He Long's sword splitting the salt bureau, occupying the county seat, pulling the team against Yuan, recruiting the team, not wanting to be Tan's counselor, and concentrating on following Sun Yat-sen.
Lin Xiumei became more and more fond of He Long, and Lin Xiumei said, "Are you okay to stay with me?" ”
He Long saw that Lin Xiumei was a character and agreed very much. Not long after, He Long was introduced by Lin Xiumei and Guo Hong and joined the Chinese Revolutionary Party.
