The sea breeze is soothing, and the ships are undulating. In the distance of the sea, the water is so blue and clear, but it is so deep. Under the gentle blow of the wind, it is shaking, and a layer of fine wrinkles dazzlingly reflect the sun's brilliance.

People on the shore can no longer see it; even the coast is gradually out of sight. Soon, there will be only the vast sea left in your eyes.

Is it calm? What is calm is within the sight, not the heart, and it is not the continent that has left the sight. Chen Wenqiang let out a long breath and looked up again at the direction where there was no sight.

The revolutionary army defeated Lu Rongting, Long Jiguang and Guangdong New Army, the three Qing troops that came to besiege, which completely lost the mobile power of the Qing army in Guangxi. More than 3,000 troops broke out of Zhennan Pass, easily recovered Pingxiang, Longzhou, and Ningmingzhou, and then went south to attack Fangcheng again.

The main force of the Qing army was defeated, and the defensive forces in the Guizhou-Vietnam border area were very weak, and the revolutionary army was more smooth than the plunder during the uprising. After occupying the Fangcheng City, Qiongzhou, which had already received a telegram and was ready, immediately transported the materials that had been working overtime and purchased for a month.

Hanyang built 1,500 Mauser rifles, more than 3,000 pistols, and three Maximine heavy machine guns, ten Maderson light machine guns, hundreds of thousands of bullets, and more than 3,000 grenades... In addition, there are three Marconi quenching spark-type radios and several machinery and equipment.

It can be said that the equipment of the Revolutionary Army in Guangxi is now being placed with the greatest hope. You should know that there are only four heavy machine guns in Qiongzhou, and most of them are rated to the Southwest Revolutionary Army.

This may be the last large-scale transportation, not a matter of production capacity. Instead, taking advantage of the new defeat of the Qing army, there was no time to make adjustments, let alone a sea blockade.

The army armed to the teeth can occupy a solid base and persist for a long time, right? This has also taken out most of the guns and ammunition equipped by the Qiongzhou "Patrol Battalion" and the merchant regiment, and many soldiers have paid empty-handedly!

In the sun, floating on the sea with a light and slightly wavy waves, it should have been relaxed and comfortable. But Chen Wenqiang's thoughts were changing. He was both longing and worried, and it took him a long time to calm down his mood again.

…………………

At the end of 1906, the Guangxi Uprising launched by the Revival Society shocked China and the world, inspiring the confidence of revolutionaries and setting off a revolutionary sacrificial situation.

"The Qing army has low combat power and is no longer able to fight!"

"The government is full of grievances, and people are full of responses."

Everyone has different opinions. But many people have such ideas and judgments because of the successive victories of the Revolutionary Army.

In Tokyo, the debate initiated by the Tongmenghui was considered to be a victory. In fact, from the beginning of the debate, Liang Qichao was destined to be at a disadvantage. Not to mention the number of people and literary style, Liang Qichao would definitely lose the confrontation between the "royalty" and the "revolutionary" views - How can revolutions require so many reasons? It is useless to let Liang Qichao talk.

But outsiders watch the excitement, while insiders look at the tricks. Looking deeper, the reason for the debate is that the main targets that the two factions want to fight for are international students and overseas Chinese. Because at that time, both factions had no place in China, the fundraising of their activities and the basic strength of their movements had to be fought for among international students and overseas Chinese. Their development space was extremely narrow, and there was a tendency for water and fire to be incompatible.

The two factions regard each other as the biggest obstacle to their own survival and development, and are incompatible. As Liang Qichao said: "Our party and the government fight to the death is still the second meaning; fighting to the death is the first meaning. If there is another, there is no self, and if there is an self, there is no one." Liang's words, most people think that this is a dispute between ideology, is actually determined by the economic foundation.

But now it is no longer two factions. The Revival Association belongs to the revolutionary party, but it maintains its independence and the major things it does are more and more sensational. The influence and appeal have also risen sharply. Of course, including fundraising, the situation is also improving.

After all, reform and revolution were the two major choices for China's future at that time, both of which were "VC investment". If someone wanted to pursue it, you had to show your performance. You had to lose money for years and have unclear prospects. Who could waste money? And it was also a revolution. You also have to see whose "company" has stronger strength and better performance, right?

Of course there are charity donations, but we cannot expect everyone to have such noble character. They are selfless patriots who worry about the country and the people.

This wave of market conditions, no, it should be said that this Guangxi Uprising has created the most historical momentum, organization, investment and record. When the gloriousness was revealed, both China and the world were shocked. Undoubtedly, this was a great benefit and support for the issuance of revolutionary bonds by the branches of the Revival Society. At the same time, the reputation of the Revival Society has also increased to a new level, including Song Fuhua, a revolutionary who was dedicated to the creation of the Revival Society.

The revolutionary Mr. Sun Zs of Beichen was famous all over the world, and is certainly well-known. However, Song Fuhua, with the power of the Revival Society, had the power to come from above and had become a very well-known figure. In addition, his thoughts and theories about the revolution were also valued, studied and well-known.

Under the circumstances at that time, "the theory of revolution is that young people with strong strength are easily confused by them." Most angry young people are from teenagers, which is indeed a disease that is easy to suffer from in a specific age group. Many young people are not clear about their profound thoughts and theories, but shout "revolution, revolution". However, the successful actions of the Revival Society happened to be their guiding light, creating opportunities for them to "go to the revolution".

Only in Tokyo, passionate young people who signed up for the Revival Society have been incessant for days, making the Revival Society branch offices noisy and crowded, as lively as a market. The overseas branches are also in a warm scene, and even the newly opened American branches have developed rapidly and have greatly boosted their momentum.

Although they are both revolutionary parties, the Tongmenghui and the Revival Society are in a competitive relationship. The interaction Chen Wenqiang mentioned is actually similar in nature. If the Revival Society is strong, the Tongmenghui will decline and it will be even more difficult to raise funds. Therefore, under pressure, the Tongmenghui began to arrange armed uprisings in an intensive manner to boost morale and revitalize the influence of the revolution.

When Beichen established the Tongmenghui branch in Hanoi, he was also preparing to launch an uprising in the three provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi or Yunnan. Because these provinces are located in the border areas, have a good mass base and are easy to launch; they have a wide area, which is convenient for roundabout combat; they are especially conducive to the transport of weapons and personnel from abroad.

According to the original idea, the Tongmenghui was to revolt in Qinzhou, Lianzhou and Chaozhou and Huizhou in the eastern part at the same time, which made the Qing army exhausted and unable to rescue. However, the Fuxinghui Society had already taken the lead and launched a series of battles and won consecutive victories. The momentum was huge. There was no way, so we had to do it in Chaozhou and Huizhou. Moreover, the launch of the Fuxinghui Society also created favorable conditions for the alliance to launch a tide and Huizhou.

You should know that at that time, Guangdong was mainly Guangdong, and even Qin and Lian were in Guangdong. The Qing army here suffered heavy losses, so the Qing army in Guangdong would have to be transferred to siege and wipe out, which caused Guangdong's lack of troops.

Moreover, the Chao and Hui areas are exactly the sphere of influence of the Hongmen Triad Association. The leaders of Huanggang include Yu Chou, Yu Tong, Luo Feiyan from Fengshun, Qiu Song from Raoping, Lin He Song from Jieyang, Huang Desheng from Huilai, Chen Yunsheng from Haiyang... These heroes of the society also have the ambition to swallow the world, form alliances, and work together to make a big move. This is relatively easy.

It is easy to say, but it is not easy. If you want to be a member of the Guangluo Party, you only need one thing, that is money. As long as you have money, there are no shortage of heroes in the world who are determined to "anti-Qing and restore the Ming Dynasty".

Money is so important in the sacred revolutionary cause. The Guangluo Society bought firearms and supplies, distributed wages and food... If you don’t have money, you can’t do a revolution, and if you don’t have money, you won’t have so many people come to revolution. Although it’s vulgar, it’s reality.

…………………

It is not just the Tongmenghui, Beichen and others who are trying to find ways to make money, but also the Fuxinghui. Most of the time, Chen Wenqiang is also thinking about how to make money and how to make money faster and more.

Singapore is one of the main settlements of Chinese and overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia.

Chen Wenqiang took a boat from Fangcheng to Saigon, Vietnam first, and then went directly to Xingcheng to attend the secret meeting of the Revival Association that had been postponed because of him.

The four executive members, Song Fuhua, Chen Wenqiang, Yang Dusheng and Cai Yuanpei, were not only Wu Luzhen was in charge of Qiongzhou and paid attention to the combat operations of the Guangxi Revolutionary Army. The leadership core of the Revival Association was basically gathered together to discuss the future development plans of the Revival Association.

Continue to issue revolutionary bonds, continue to increase publicity efforts, raise funds for the revolution; reform the association to the party, improve the purpose and rules and regulations, and move towards a mature political party; subdivide work, cultivate cadres, and make various talents more professional and comprehensive; strengthen domestic development and infiltration, especially the new army that the Qing court will vigorously form; establish and stabilize multiple channels to support the Guangxi Revolutionary Army; in addition to Vietnam, with the expansion of the revolutionary army to Yunnan, Siam and Myanmar will also be suitable springboards, and the overseas Chinese in these three countries will be the key groups for the development of the Revival Association...

"Dunchu, you are not suitable to go to Guangxi at present. Although it has a morale boosting effect and also shows your fearless revolutionary spirit, the need for security may drag down the actions of the Revolutionary Army." Chen Wenqiang, as an authoritative person who just came out of Guangxi, his opinions are crucial. "Before Li Zhun from Guangdong is fought for or defeated by the Revolutionary Army, you should continue to promote and raise funds overseas, which is the most appropriate thing."

"Continue to be a long-distance revolutionary?" Song Fuhua frowned and said, "If you want to talk about the importance, it should be you."

"You are stupid, how much money?" Chen Wenqiang curled his lips and said with his eyes: "You become a revolutionary. This is the task that revival will give you and it is also your responsibility. How much money has it been spent? If you want to carry a gun and fight, then pay it back to me."

"Haha, what are you saying!" Yang Dusheng smiled and said, "Where is Dunchu, don't rush to go to dangerous places. You have your mission; as for Wenqiang, don't be like a debt collector. Now our revival will be booming. Why should you be serious if you have a small difference?"

"Besides, this is not a difference." Cai yp didn't care much, and sipped the tea gently and said slowly: "Wen Qiang's words make sense, but Dun Chu was a little impatient. To occupy the high point of the revolution and to guide the revolution, the role of the leader is indispensable. What long-distance revolutionaries are just gossip, why bother to pay attention? The foundations of the revolutionary army in Gui, Yunnan and Yue are not stable, and it is indeed inappropriate at this time."

Song Fuhua shook his head helplessly, thought for a while, and said, "Wen Qiang, according to your estimate, the Revolutionary Army will create a situation, such as Yanyou Province, how long will it take?"

"Occupy a province as the foundation?" Chen Wenqiang shook his head and said in a deep thought: "If that impact is too great, the attacks will be very fierce. But if you want to say that you will have a relatively stable situation, it will always take about a year to make it!"

"What's the situation like?" Song Fuhua continued.

Chen Wenqiang carefully considered the words and said slowly: "There is a stable base, that is, the site of the land, which can allow the troops to undergo rest and training, so that the wounded can have a stable place to recuperate and recuperate, and can also carry out production and manufacturing. In layman's terms, it means that the revolutionary army does not have to always transfer and retreat, and looks like bandits. Or the base can also be called armed separatist, and the revival can exist openly and legally, and each performs its own powers, such as laws, disciplines, various systems, etc."

"The meaning is to set up an undesolate banner, so that revolutionaries can gather continuously, and not only arm the army to train a loyal and reliable army, but also cultivate various talents needed after the revolution." Chen Wenqiang continued: "There is another point to suppress the restlessness in the association, so that members can feel at ease in the organization of the work assigned by the organization and develop their strength in a hidden way." Finally, he made a powerful gesture.

"Take a force to change the world." Song Fuhua nodded and became excited.

"The Tongmenghui also wants to launch an uprising, probably in Guangdong." Yang Dusheng was not uneasy because he was a member of the revolutionary group to send an undercover agent. He spoke very casually and naturally, "This is also beneficial to us. I wonder if we should help them solve some difficulties and launch them as soon as possible to restrain the Qing army in Guangdong."

Interaction? Chen Wenqiang was stunned for a moment, then fell into thought again.

This is the case in some ways, but it also has a mutually promoting and cooperating side.

"We have done our best to help the Tongmenghui this time. I'm afraid we haven't been able to catch it, right?" Song Fuhua understood that the investment in this uprising was not only shocking, but also shocking. According to the current financial and material resources of the Fuxing Society, it is difficult to provide a large amount of funds in a short period of time.

"How much is it?" Chen Wenqiang hesitated, obviously not yet finalized, "Money, or weapons and ammunition?"

"Specific number" Yang Dusheng shook his head and said vaguely: "The money should be no less than 50,000, right? Weapons and ammunition, it should be enough to get hundreds of guns, right?"

"So little?" Cai yp was a little surprised. He was obviously misled by the investment of the Revival and the uprising. He felt that these money and materials would not cause any major storms.
