Chapter 97 Verse 19 How do you like to be scolded by others?

When Li Liejun arrived in Wuchang, it was Ma Chaojun's Overseas Chinese Death Squad which was Feng Guozhang and Duan Qirui's two-way encirclement, so Ma Chaojun grabbed a boat and went straight down the river. In other words, when Li Liejun arrived in Wuchang from Jiujiang, Ma Chaojun happened to arrive in Jiujiang from Wuchang, and the two had no chance to meet.It's fine if we don't have a chance to meet each other, but at this juncture, imperialism has blatantly interfered in our country's internal affairs. It is said that ever since the flag of righteousness in Wuchang was raised high, and the big fat man Li Yuanhong became the governor, this big fat guy has been lying in the telegraph room every day, constantly planning to send telegrams to all provinces in the country. For example, Xu Gongdu, the commander of the Jiujiang Jinjipo Fort As a woman, she asked to go to the front line in Wuchang, so Li Yuanhong ordered Xu Gongdu to be transferred to Wuchang.Immediately afterwards, Jiujiang Huang Huanzhang murdered and set fire in Anhui. Anhui party members complained to Li Yuanhong, so Li Yuanhong generated electricity and ordered Huang Huanzhang to be dismissed.For another example, when Li Liejun from Jiangxi became the governor of Anhui, Li Yuanhong sent five calls in a row like crazy, tricking Li Liejun to leave Anhui and go to Wuchang for the revolution.

Busy sending telegrams, Feng Guozhang had already defeated the revolutionary army and occupied Hankou. Then Lao Feng ordered the artillery to aim at the Dudu Mansion in Wuchang City on the other side of the Yangtze River.Li Yuanhong lifted his buttocks, moved to Hongshan, where the shells could not reach, and continued to send a telegram—this telegram was sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the military government of the Republic of China. The foreign minister was originally Hu Ying from Taoyuan, Hubei, an old Tongmenghui, and an old revolutionary party.Originally, his foreign minister did a good job, but because of the chaos in Shandong, the governor of Shandong, Sun Baoqi, declared independence, and after 20 days of independence, he announced the cancellation of independence.The reason for the independence is that the party members made too much noise, and Sun Baoqi was weak and couldn't stand it.The reason for the cancellation of independence was that Yuan Shikai made too much trouble, and Sun Baoqi was still weak and couldn't stand it.Sun Baoqi, the governor of Shandong, and Zhu Jiabao, the governor of Anhui, were both Yuan Shikai's pony, but Yuan Shikai obeyed.Yuan Shikai ordered Zhu Jiabao to be independent, and Zhu Jiabao became the governor of Anhui. Yuan Shikai ordered Sun Baoqi not to be independent, and Sun Baoqi, who was already independent, hurriedly canceled his independence.

After Sun Baoqi became independent, he went back on his promises, reneged on his promises, and became self-sufficient. The party members were not angry, and they entered the country to harass them on a large scale. Li Yuanhong also hurriedly sent Hu Ying to add trouble.Because Hu Ying had been a teacher and taught in Shandong before, and had certain social connections, Hu Ying was sent to be the governor of Yantai and create a revolutionary base. As a result, the foreign minister of the military government of the Republic of China was replaced by Wang Zhengting.After receiving Li Yuanhong's telegram, Wang Zhengting went to the British Consul and said: "It's terrible, now Feng Guozhang's Beiyang Army has occupied Hankou, and even fired artillery into Wuchang City and hit the Dudu's Mansion."It is inappropriate for Feng Guozhang to shoot cannons like this. It will hurt civilians and put your British expatriates in danger. Are you British people so cold-blooded? speak?

Hearing this, the British consul said in embarrassment: ... If we speak out about this matter, will you be accused of interfering in internal affairs? Wang Zhengting said: You will definitely be scolded if you come out to speak.But if you don't speak out, you will only be scolded more fiercely.If you talk, you will brazenly interfere in our country's internal affairs, if you don't speak, you will be called cold-blooded and cruel, how do you like to be scolded, you can decide for yourself. British Consul: ... If I must be scolded, I would choose to be scolded as interfering in internal affairs. Although this title sounds ugly, it is better than cold-blooded cruelty, right?

So the British consul came forward and gathered old and new imperialists of various brands, such as Germany, France, Japan and Russia, and went to Feng Guozhang together, saying: "No more cannonballs are allowed. You will frighten the expatriates in our country. We express our strong condolences to you." protest. Feng Guozhang said: Stop talking nonsense, if you want to interfere in our country's internal affairs, the Chinese people will not agree to you. The imperialists said: I warn you, if you startle our expatriates in Wuchang by shooting again, then our warships will shoot at you together, you can decide for yourself.

Feng Guozhang said: Bah, I'm afraid of you. I'll give you three days to move all your expatriates out of Wuchang. If you don't move within three days, if you are injured by our shelling, you can't blame us anymore. So under the mediation of the great powers, the two sides stopped firing for three days.The next day after the cannons were stopped, Li Liejun had arrived in Wuchang with his warship. Regarding Li Liejun's meeting with Li Yuanhong, Li Liejun said in his own account: ... Yu Ze landed from Qingshan, and personally led the army to cross Cangzibu. The next day Li Dudu returned, and Yu went to pay a visit.Retell the method of deploying the two armies.Li Dudu ordered Yu to serve as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces of the five provinces, as well as the commander-in-chief of the central army, Du Xijun, commander-in-chief of the right-wing army, and Wang Zhixiang, commander-in-chief of the left-wing army. I have arrived in Yuezhou, so I have been sent to the right wing...

In this narration, Li Liejun mentioned three insignificant and trivial matters, but did not mention one crucial event. The first small thing: Fatty Li has become the revolutionary leader of the whole country, and Wuchang has become the holy land of Chinese revolution.Even Guangxi, which had just become independent, was ordered to rush forward to defend Greater Wuhan. The second trifle: When Li Yuanhong saw Li Liejun, he said: Li Liejun, you came and saved my life. If you don't come, I will die.There is nothing more meritorious than rescuing a car, and no poison is better than running out of food. Li Liejun has meritorious service in escorting, so he was promoted from the commander of the heavy artillery to the commander-in-chief of the five-provincial coalition forces, and also the commander-in-chief of the central army. He got so many commander titles in one go. Li Liejun's life Achievement, culminates here.

The third small thing: Among the troops from Guangxi to aid Wuchang, there were two teams of the latest Maxim machine guns.Li Liejun is an iron-blooded soldier. When he sees advanced weapons, his hands itch, so he can't help but say it. The big thing that Li Liejun didn't say was that he got three machine guns in Wuchang (very likely, they got them from the brothers who aided Wuchang in Guangxi). Of the three machine guns, two were in good condition, and one was broken and could not be fired at all. Next, Li Liejun will carry this broken machine gun and get the position of governor of Jiangxi.
