Chapter 20 Chapter 10 The Warrior of Blood

Regarding Yuan Shikai being bombed by revolutionaries, the earliest record is mentioned in the book "Yuan Shikai Ji" written by his son Yuan Kewen: ...One day, when the late Duke entered the court, there was a man with a bullet in his arms. He fell in the left building of the Dong'an Gate Outer Road. When the late Duke returned to his residence, he threw a bullet at the chariot...and injured the horse driving the chariot. The horse was shot and galloped away. Returning, entering the mansion, the horse also died, the grandfather looked calm, and the slightest words were deafening...

Yuan Kewen, that bastard, managed to write a book, but still didn't explain the origin and reason of the assassin, it's really irresponsible. Inferring the assassination incident, the responsibility is still on Wang Jingwei. It is said that Wang Jingwei was imprisoned for plotting to assassinate the regent Zaifeng.After the Wuchang Uprising, all provinces became independent one after another, so the Qing government released Wang Jingwei in order to show favor to the Revolutionary Party.After he was released from prison, a student from Noble Academy came to visit.Since it is a noble school, the students are of course the children of officials.

Sure enough, the person who came was Zhang Xianpei.His grandfather, Zhang Liang, served as the admiral of Anhui, and later he was awarded the deputy general because of the suppression of the Tiandihui Rebellion.While Zhang Xianpei was studying in the school, the teacher happened to be a revolutionary party and advised him to shed blood for the revolution.Heartbroken, Zhang Xianpei came to Wang Jingwei. Wang Jingwei asked him: You said your hometown is Guizhou, so why didn't you go back to Guizhou to start an uprising? Zhang Xianpei said: I don't want to go back to Guizhou, I want to work with you here.

Wang Jingwei asked: "One piece?"What are you doing? Zhang Xianpei suggested: Look, how about we join forces to blow up Yuan Shikai? Wang Jingwei: ...Blowing up Yuan Shikai?Why bomb him? Zhang Xianpei said: Is there even a need to ask?Now the Qing court relies on Yuan Shikai alone. As long as he is killed, the revolution will almost succeed. Wang Jingwei shook his head: No, no, let me tell you the truth, Yuan Shikai actually admired the republic, and had long intended to do whatever he wanted.If you kill him, you are afraid that the world will be full of disasters and wars will break out everywhere.So what I mean is, don't rush to do it first, contact your comrades first, and then talk after you are ready.

Zhang Xianpei agreed, and went to contact comrades.Here Wang Jingwei was sent by Yuan Shikai to Nanjing to join Sun Wen, and then Wang Jingwei did not say to return to Beijing soon, but wandered around the West Lake.Zhang Xianpei felt very lonely in Beijing alone, but in the end he met fellow villager Huang Zhimeng. Huang Zhimeng, with a burly appearance and a smart appearance, has a very sad past.In the early years, the French seized Vietnam, and the Vietnamese asked for help from China, but the Qing court was too busy to take care of themselves, so many martyrs went there one after another.At that time, Huang Zhimeng was also going to Vietnam. When his parents found out, they tricked him into picking up things from a house. As soon as he entered, they locked the door outside with a bang, preventing him from coming out again.Huang Zhimeng was so anxious that he jumped around the house. In the middle of the night, his wife quietly came to the door, opened it for him, and encouraged him to go to the frontier to kill the enemy.But Huang Zhimeng had no travel expenses, so his wife pulled off the hairpin from her head and gave it to Huang Zhimeng to sell for money on the road.

Huang Zhimeng took his wife's hairpin as travel expenses, and went to Vietnam after all the hard work, but saw the heads of martyrs who rushed to Vietnam at their own expense, hung on flagpoles by Frenchmen.Huang Zhimeng returned home crying, and told his wife that after hearing this, the wife was sad about the state affairs, but she couldn't get sick, and the scent of fragrance disappeared quietly like this. His beloved wife died of worrying about the country. Huang Zhimeng swore in his heart that he would never marry, so he entered the capital and studied in the Surveying and Mapping School run by the Military Counselor Office, secretly collecting many maps.

When Zhang and Huang met, they were overjoyed. They chatted all night and decided to raise the flag of rebellion in the city of Beijing and do something earth-shattering.The next day, Huang Zhimeng drifted away without a trace, and came back a few days later, bringing another person to Zhang Xianpei. The person who came with Huang Zhimeng was surnamed Yang, and his name was Yang Yuchang. He used to teach at Baoding Army Middle School.After the Wuchang Uprising, he said to the students: "The man has made great achievements. At this moment, the lords and I will vote in various provinces, and secretly allied with the party members to rise up to save the country from danger."Then he led a group of students to Shanghai, only to find that the Shanghai Revolutionary Party had gathered in groups all over the streets, and they all shot and set fire to Chen Qimei's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, demanding back wages.

So Yang Yuchang said: To capture a thief is to capture a king!So he took the road to Beijing and contacted the party members along the way, but he was inexplicably suspected by the party members that he was a spy of the Qing court.Yang Yuchang was furious, and said: The most dangerous thing is to die, you can always stand out if you don't die, let me make a big one for you! So Zhang Xianpei, Huang Zhimeng and Yang Yuchang arrived in Beijing together, and the three of them worked together to kill Yuan Shikai.
