Chapter 18 Chapter 7 Iron Blood Eighteen Stars

After the candidates for the new government were confirmed, Mr. Liu, a wealthy man, asked three students from the Wuchang Secondary Technical School to come to his residence. The three students are Chen Lei, Zhao Shimei, and Zhao Xueshi. Chen Lei is the younger brother of revolutionary martyr Chen Tanqiu, Zhao Shimei, who will be one of the earliest professors in China, and Zhao Xueshi is Zhao Shimei's younger brother.At that time, the three students were all in their teens and belonged to the "little masters" who ran errands.After the three of them arrived, Liu Kai said: Chen Lei, you are a student of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Zhao Shimei and Zhao Xueshi, both of you are from the Department of Electrical Engineering, you can get drawing instruments in school, and you both know how to draw, which just came in handy.No, we are about to have a revolution soon, and the revolution must have a revolutionary banner, and this banner will be fulfilled by you.

The banner has eighteen stars, and the inside is a red ground with nine black stars, which symbolizes iron and blood, which means that our revolution must bleed, and force must be used.There are 18 golden round stars in the inner and outer corners of the black nine stars, representing the 18 provinces in the pass, and the yellow ones represent the descendants of the Yellow Emperor.This flag will be sewed by the three of you, so you must find a reliable tailor shop and secretly sew 20 flags for use when there is an incident. Mr. Liu only cares about wow-wow here, but he doesn't know that he has made another serious political mistake.

What's wrong? Mr. Liu was just immersed in the excitement of creating history. He didn't know that Sun Yat-sen had quarreled with Huang Xing for the right to create history many years ago.At that time, Sun Yat-sen advocated the emblem of the blue sky and white sun, but Huang Xing insisted on using the well-shaped emblem, and believed that the well field was a symbol of socialism. The ultimate goal of the revolution was to establish socialism, so of course the well-field emblem should be used. Sun Yat-sen ridiculed Huang Xing's well field emblem as "not artistic", which means it is not good-looking and too ugly, and also accused Huang Xing of being too old-fashioned and not trendy.But Huang Xing insisted, Sun Yat-sen finally turned his face, threw the flag on the ground, and shouted sharply: I am in Nanyang, and millions of compatriots entrust their lives to this flag. If you, Huang Xing, want to abolish this flag, you must pass me first This level!

For the sake of a flag, Sun Yat-sen turned his back on him, leaving Huang Xing speechless. In order to avoid a split in the revolution, Huang Xing had no choice but to wrong himself and make concessions.But he was too wronged in his heart, so Huang Xing wrote to Hu Hanmin, saying in the letter: Fame does not need to be self-sufficient, merit does not need to be self-reliant, and secondly, success is not necessary; why should Mr. Cling to the banner of the first uprising?However, for the sake of the party and the overall situation, Yu Jin has reluctantly obeyed his wishes. Sun Yat-sen did not hesitate to turn against Huang Xing for the sake of a flag, but the Gongjinhui wanted to throw away the blue sky and set up a new flag, making it clear that it was the sentence that Huang Xing said to Huang Xing when Jiao Dafeng founded the Gongjinhui - the future Gonggong Sheng, we attached to the public.I have made great achievements, and the public should follow me-the Gongjinhui intends to compete with the Tongmenghui to see who is the first to achieve the success of the revolution.

Chen Lei, Zhao Shimei, and Zhao Xueshi, three young students, didn't know the twists and turns here, followed behind the ass of the rich man Liu Gong, and went farther and farther on the wrong road.It is said that after these three people took the order, they went back to school first, secretly used the drawing device to draw the blueprints, and then found a tailor shop in Caohu Bridge.Although the work was accepted, he dared not sew during the day, for fear of being caught by the bannermen and ransacking all over the house. He could only sew secretly in the dead of night after closing at night.

The owner of the tailor shop worked very efficiently, and quickly sewed 18 flags, two of which were short. Chen Lei and the others took out the 18 flags and sent them to the headquarters of the rebel army at No. 85 Xiaochao Street. After the flags were sent, unexpectedly, on October 9, there was an earth-shattering noise at No. 14 Baoshanli, the Russian Concession in Hankou, which exposed the 18 battle flags and completely cut off all hope of the uprising.
