Chapter 14 Section 3 Mistakes Are Contagious

Another person who made serious political mistakes is Jiao Dafeng. Jiao Dafeng, formerly known as Dapeng, styled Jusen, was born in Liuyang.The third old leader of the Hunan Gelaohui, the first was Wang Xiufang, a four-legged pig, who was killed because he participated in the uprising of King Qin of Tang Changcai of the Hunan Self-reliance Army.The second was Ma Fuyi, who conspired with Huang Xing's Huaxing Company and was killed. Huang Xing led all the staff of Huaxing Company to escape to Japan and joined Sun Yat-sen's Tongmenghui.After Jiao Dafeng led the Gelao congregation, he went to Japan to find an organization, joined the Tongmenghui there, and became a loyal supporter of Sun Yat-sen ever since.He found out that Sun Yat-sen had an alias Zhongshanqiao. He thought the name had a good style, and he also gave himself a strange name of Gangtouqiao, and waited happily for the success of the revolution.

Unexpectedly, he waited left and right, until Jiao Dafeng's eyes turned black, seeing one revolt failed and another revolt failed, the revolution refused to succeed.Jiao Dafeng couldn't wait any longer, so he recruited Zhang Baixiang, the veteran of the Sichuan Filial Piety Association, the Triad Association in Guangdong, and the Three Points Association in Guangxi. Jiao Dafeng established the Gongjin Association in the second half of 1907, and made a political mistake three years earlier than Huang Xing, so Huang Xing, who hadn't made a mistake at that time, rushed to stop it.

Huang Xing questioned Jiao Dafeng: Xiaojiao, you are a member of the Tongmenghui, but you set up a sect at the top of the mountain and set up a separate Gongjinhui, which is obviously a split organization. What do you mean? Jiao Dafeng said with a smile: "Old Young Master Huang came to scare me. It's not that you don't understand that the League will work too slowly and will wait for people to die."Our Gongjin Association will never do things like the Tongmenghui. Just wait and see. Huang Xing was extremely angry: Xiaojiao, you split the organization and split the society... If the revolution has two systems, who will be right?

Jiao Dafeng laughed and said: "The soldiers haven't risen yet, so what's the rush?"In the future, the public will be successful, and we will attach the public.I am prosperous, and the public should also attach me. Huang Xing: You... Xiaojiao... you want to piss me off? Facing Jiao Dafeng's public provocation, Huang Xing really had no choice.You must know that although the Tongmenghui formed by Sun Wen has many members, it has one important feature—"Everyone talks about revolution, and everyone does not make revolution. There are people everywhere who talk about it, but there are no one who actually does it" (see " The Origin of the Gongjinhui and Its Several Systems").Under such circumstances, even though Huang Xing hoped that Jiao Dafeng would accept his leadership, Jiao Dafeng was not happy, and neither was Huang Xing.

Not only did Huang Xing have nothing to do, but less than three years after Jiao Dafeng split the League, Huang Xing followed Jiao Dafeng and made the same political mistake. Obviously, splitting is also highly contagious. From the perspective of systematic laws, there is no specific law to follow for the success of a revolution. Revolutionary leaders are not living gods who know five hundred years before and five hundred years later. It will succeed, and the leaders don't pay attention to the corners and corners, and it doesn't necessarily mean that they will not succeed.Therefore, having an extra Gongjin Association out of thin air, and an extra central headquarters of the Tongmenghui, is equivalent to quadrupling the chances of the success of the revolution.

However, even though the chances of the success of the revolution have doubled in a row, Jiao Dafeng, like Huang Xing, is also from Hunan, and there is still some distance from Wuchang. It is said that it does not matter how many times the chances of success of the revolution, as long as Wuchang cannot be covered, Everything is equal to nothing.But it shouldn't be so, as soon as Jiao Dafeng returned to Changsha, he couldn't wait to do a big job, and in the end he was rushed to Wuchang all at once. This incident is the major rice robbery case in Changsha. Jiao Dafeng gathered elders' associations in Changsha, and spent a lot of money to invite boxer martial arts masters from the north. Along the way, he collected hungry people and beggars, flocked to the government office to make noise, and set fire to the government office, causing Hunan governor Ji Chunxuan to abandon his official position job.But if you kill 10,000 enemies and lose 8,000, Ling Chunxuan is lost here, but Jiao Dafeng is also facing a huge financial shortfall—no one reimburses him for the operation funds for the rice robbing in Hunan.

It is estimated that this fee is between 20,000 and 30,000. Even if the old leader Jiao Dafeng is sold, he will not be able to afford it. What should I do if I can't afford it? Jiao Dafeng thought to himself: How about I go to Wuchang, Hubei to hide my debts and continue the revolution along with it... As soon as this idea came out, the coverage of the revolution finally enveloped Wuchang, and the chances of the revolution's success also jumped rapidly.
