Chapter 135 Chapter 29 Counterfeit and shoddy products kill people

Guo Renzhang suddenly changed his mind inexplicably, Wang Heshun was certainly angry, but Huang Xing was even more miserable. He was in Guo Renzhang's barracks at this time, but he didn't even know what happened. This is where the weirdness of this period of history lies. Huang Xing never understood why Guo Renzhang suddenly changed his mind until his death. None of the people present at the scene could figure it out, let alone others. Everyone guessed that this Guo Renzhang probably looked down on Wang Heshun's weak soldiers and thin horses, and despised him, so he... In short, Lao Guo changed his mind and stopped messing with everyone.

Huang Xing was in a hurry, so he went to look for Guo Renzhang. Guo Renzhang was not stupid, but how could he let him find him? Unable to find Guo Renzhang, Huang Xing simply rolled up his sleeves and went into battle in Guo Renzhang's barracks, planning for the soldiers and calling for a revolution, but the soldiers only cared about Huang Xing's reward. , have no interest at all. In desperation, Huang Xing escaped from Guo Renzhang's barracks and went to Vietnam to find Sun Wenhui's teacher. Huang Xing could escape, but Wang Heshun had no way to escape. There were already more than a thousand people on his side, but in the past few days, many unemployed young people came from four villages and five miles. Bigger means.

But there are so many people, but most of them are unarmed and have no weapons. Wang Heshun pondered left and right. Qinzhou City on Guo Renzhang’s side has a lot of high-level guns, so don’t think about it. Just attack Lingshan County, maybe... I heard that the city walls of Lingshan County are not too short... So Wang Heshun called Chen Fachu, who had recently joined the revolution, and ordered him to rush to build five ladders for siege, and when he attacked Lingshan County, he would bring another 60 people to take them. Go down to Liufengshan Fort. Chen Fachu said: Guaranteed to complete the task!

Wang Heshun was overjoyed, and immediately ordered 4,000 troops to march quickly to take down Lingshan County. The brothers had a great time.A few days passed during the conversation, and the revolutionary army had swarmed to the foot of Lingshan Mountain, and the Qing army on the city wall shot wildly towards the outside. Wang Heshun gave an order, and saw three ladders rushing up. Wang Heshun blinked: Didn't I order the construction of five ladders?Why are there only three here? But these three ladders are all counterfeit and shoddy products. Two of them disintegrated when they leaned against the city wall. More than 30 brothers were so miserable that they fell into heavy siege by the Qing army. More than 4,000 people outside the city watched helplessly as they were beaten to death one by one by the Qing army, but there was nothing they could do.

Counterfeit and shoddy products are really killing people! Chen Fachu didn't just move his hands and feet on the ladder, he also moved his hands and feet on the fort. It is said that after Chen Fachu accepted Wang Heshun's order and led 60 people to easily take down the Liufengshan Fort, he immediately set up cannons and bombarded Wang Heshun's revolutionary army. I see, Chen Fachu is a bastard, it turns out that he pretended to be a revolutionist, and he was a spy who sneaked into the revolutionary ranks. At this time, Wang Heshun was in dire straits at home and abroad, with no food inside and no reinforcements outside. The future of the revolution was no longer as optimistic as it was at the beginning.

Retreat to Mutoutang, don't let that bastard Chen Fachu bombard you with cannons. Discovering the retreat of the revolutionary army, the Song Anshu Department of the Qing army stationed in Lingshan County was furious. It was so hard to get a chance to win the battle. It is really shameful that you, Wang Heshun, left just as soon as you said it. So Song Anshu sent his men to deliver a letter to Wang Heshun, claiming to surrender and let Wang Heshun come back to accept the surrender. At this time, Wang Heshun, even if he didn't believe him, had nowhere to go. It doesn't matter if he is true or not, let's go back and have a look... After returning, he saw Song Anshu open the city gate, dug trenches outside the city gate, and the revolutionary army. Fight.

Just as the fight was in full swing, that bad guy Guo Renzhang suddenly appeared from behind, flanking him twice, and the revolutionary army collapsed immediately. You must know that although the revolutionary army has a large number of people, it has very few guns. Most of the 4,000 people are just cheerleaders, which are useless in actual combat.Seeing that Guo Renzhang was approaching menacingly at this time, he had completely wiped out the surrounding revolutionary army and regained Fangcheng.The folks who came from four townships and five miles to seek refuge immediately took their small parcels and went home to continue to wait for work.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Wang Heshun disbanded all the remaining cheerleaders, and the remaining elite went to the Shiwanda Mountains to fight guerrillas. He brought more than 20 people with him, and also passed through Vietnam to report to Sun Wen. There is also Liu Yongde, the head of the post, who is a determined revolutionary. He followed Wang Heshun to find Sun Wen, but as soon as he entered Vietnam, he was caught by the French and sold them all to Singapore. .After so many years, I don't know if the League will redeem him... There were many reports of success from the Qing army, and when they were discussing their merits and offering rewards, they found that the one with the most credit was the small town of Dongxing on the Sino-Vietnamese border.

Why did the Qing soldiers here make such great military exploits? It turned out that as early as when Wang Heshun and Huang Xing went to the mainland to mobilize the masses, Sun Wen sent people to mobilize the Qing garrison in Dongxing. After several intense talks, the two sides finally negotiated the price. The two parties agreed that Sun Wen would make a one-time payment, and that the garrison would immediately change the dragon flag of the Qing court to the blue sky and white sun flag of the Tongmenghui when Wang Heshun launched a campaign in Qinzhou. Seeing that money changes flags, and changing flags takes money, the price is the same, and the old and the old are not deceived.

The contract is in triplicate, and the characters are drawn and marked. After the contract was signed, the two sides shook hands happily. The Qing garrison stood under the flagpole with the Qingtian Baisun flag in their hands and waited eagerly, while Sun Wen ran around madly trying to get money. Objectively speaking, Sun Wen's ability to make money is far inferior to that of Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, but compared with ordinary people, he can also be called a good hand at making money. Soon, he finally got enough money and handed it over to a brother named Guan Renfu. He sent it to the Dongxing Garrison.

Before leaving, Sun Wenqian reminded Wan Wan not to lose the money, absolutely, absolutely... Guan Renfu did live up to Sun Wen's entrustment. He didn't let anyone steal any of the money. Let his brother spend it all by himself.Not a penny left. In short, this brother Guan Renfu has a personality. If he wants to make a revolution, he must also treat himself kindly... The Guan Renfu brothers didn't treat themselves badly at all, but the Qing soldiers were a little careless. When the appointed time came, they raised the blue sky and white sun flag with a bang.Because Dongxing town is on the border, the Chinese revolution was known internationally, which played a great role in propaganda. The propaganda work here is over, but the Qingbing brothers insisted that they didn’t see the money. The Qingbing brothers were very angry. They lowered the Qingtian Bairi flag and raised the dragon flag, and reported to the above:... with respect to the imperial court. With utter loyalty, the soldiers finally conquered Dongxing after a bloody battle... The imperial court was overjoyed when they received the battle report, issued an order to reward them, and asked the fighting heroes of Dongxing Town to form a model worker team to tour the country to give speeches...
