"The power has been achieved, the wings have been abundant, and it has gradually become domineering, and is not controlled by the governor and the central government..."

Within the Qing court, Chen Wenqiang, the rapidly rising local powerful figure in Guangdong and Guangxi, was evaluated in this way.●⌒,

If we look at the political situation in China, we can also evaluate the revolutionary military government in the southwest in this way. The power has basically completed the structures of the two provinces, including politics, economy, military, etc., and it has become an independent government. At least in the eyes of many foreigners, the anti-government armed forces are no longer enough to describe the revolutionary army.

Under such a revolutionary situation, even if the Chinese Revolutionary Party picks up the old sign of the Tongmenghui, its influence will be difficult to recover and it will be even more difficult to compete with the Revolutionary United Front.

Putting aside the trend of adversity, revolution, since the goals are consistent and there is a prosperous revolutionary work with endless hope, why do you have to start a new business and start from scratch with difficulty?

As for revolutionary strategies and theories, not to mention who is higher or lower, just looking at the revolutionary achievements made by the United Front is a very realistic proof.

What's more, there is not a revolutionary leader. From the perspective of propaganda, momentum, achievements, influence, etc., Song Fuhua has surpassed Beichen. The so-called rise in water and the strength of the revolutionary front further highlights Song Fuhua's lofty and correctness.

If we evaluate it fairly, although Beichen was a pioneer of the revolution, its influence in China was not as exaggerated as in history books. It was just that he had a good student who became the head of China. After continuous beautification, he perfected the image of Beichen.

Of course, it is appropriate to define Beichen as a "revolutionary pioneer". But is the pioneer absolutely correct? Is it necessary for everyone to support and support? Obviously, even judging from the historical incidents of the Tongmenghui's defeat of Sun several times at that time, this is not the case.

Chen Qimei is a character in history, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time. He was just thinking about using his skills and establishing a revolutionary basis in Shanghai, but he didn't know that Shanghai was basically Chen Wenqiang's world and had become a solid revolutionary base.

…………………

The Chinese Revolutionary Party, or the renamed Tongmenghui, continued to carry out the revolutionary movement according to Beichen's strategy. There is no need to think about the southwest. The Green Forest in Guangdong and Guangxi was also suppressed by Chen Wenqiang, so they could only focus on the Yangtze River Basin.

Just as the work of the Chinese Revolutionary Party was just unfolding and far from seeing results, the Southwest Revolutionary Army launched another offensive and burned the revolutionary fire to Sichuan, the country of Tianfu.

On January 23, 1908, the revolutionary army dispatched its entire line, attacking from the east, west and south directions, creating the illusion of besieging the important city of Kunming.

The weapons and equipment were supplemented and the soldiers were trained. After the officers were trained, the combat power of the entire revolutionary army was significantly improved, and the results achieved were hard to suspect were feints.

More than 20,000 revolutionary troops carried out key strikes on the Qing army's defense line with brigades, and key breakthroughs were made. Eshan, Tonghai, Huaning, Guangnan, Xilin, Qiubei and other counties were successively restored within a few days.

Just as Xiliang saw the deployment of the Qing army on the map, he once pessimistically predicted that the prevention and blockade should be successful, "unless the Great Wall is not allowed." The Qing army divided its troops to siege and defended the long and complex defense line, which was almost impossible. From the perspective of the total force, the Qing army was several times that of the Revolutionary Army, but at any pass, the important land, the force could not resist the concentrated attack of the Revolutionary Army.

Moreover, the Qing army, which maintained the defense line, wanted to form a deep defense, but was restricted by insufficient troops and lack of food and food. This created a risk of collapse and disintegration once it was broken through a little.

It was precisely this that the Revolutionary Army used this to form a force advantage in the local area, gathered its efforts to raid, break through one point and then deviated from the other Qing troops, thereby shaking and destroying the entire defense line of the Qing army.

Lost. Retreat; Fall, Retreat... Xiliang was overwhelmed by the successive news, and had to personally lead a new army and thousands of patrol battalions from Hubei to Kunming and rushed to Maitreya to supervise the battle.

In fact, the Qing army collapsed and collapsed very quickly. It only shows that the Qing army had weak fighting will and was slightly unfavorable, so it would abandon the defender and flee. Because of this, the revolutionary army broke through a little and surrounded the enemy's rear and did not achieve the expected results. The Qing army was really running too fast. It had just broken through here and retreated there. However, the revived territory had a great impact. It also achieved the purpose of feint attack and restraining it.

On February 8, the main attack direction of Yunnan Military Region finally made efforts. Its main force was in Nanhua, and Yao'an confronted the Qing army of Chuxiong. More than 5,000 troops entered Sichuan set out from Lijiang, crossed the Jinsha River to the east, defeated the Qing army's defenders along the river, and advanced directly, successively restoring Yongsheng, Huaping, entering Sichuan territory, and easily restoring the three counties of Yanbian, Miyi, and Huili, and initially achieving the strategic purpose of entering Sichuan and seizing the basis.

On February 24, the troops entering Sichuan went south with 3,000 troops to attack and plunder. The weakness of the Qing army's defense line was fully exposed. Renhe and Yongren's small number of Qing troops either surrendered or fled. The troops entering Sichuan entered Yunnan Province, and together with the revolutionary army in western Yunnan, they succeeded in attacking Yuan, continued to move south, and besieged Chuxiong.

At this point, as long as Chuxiong gets out of the last nail, the Yunnan and Sichuan Guangfu Districts will be connected together and have completely grasped the strategic initiative.

At this time, Xi Liangcai woke up from a dream and realized that his judgment was wrong. The main attack direction of the Revolutionary Army was in the west and northwest. But it was too late, and the entire defense line was facing collapse, and reorganization of the troops was not a task that could be completed in a short period of time. The Revolutionary Army in the west and east directions still maintained pressure on the Qing army, making it difficult to draw.

In desperation, Xiliang could only urgently call the governor of Sichuan, asking him to mobilize the Qing army in Sichuan to go south to intercept, and ordered the Kunming defenders to withdraw one of them to reinforce Chuxiong; he quickly rectified the defeated soldiers retreating from the first line of defense, and carried out a contraction of defense, voluntarily abandoned Yuxi and Maitreya, and focused on Yimen, Puning, Chengjiang, Shilin and Yiliang, and arranged a new defense line around Kunming.

On March 9, the revolutionary army in western Yunnan divided its troops to attack and conquered Shuangbai County, the barrier south of Chuxiong, forming a three-sided siege against the Qing army in Chuxiong.

On March 10, the troops entering Sichuan advanced from Yuanmou to attack Wuding, directly threatening the already empty Kunming.

On March 11, Xiliang led the Hubei New Army to Kunming to strengthen defense; at the same time, in order to prevent Chuxiong and Qing army from being surrounded and annihilated, he ordered the abandonment of Chuxiong and retreating Lufeng, and to draw troops and Kunming troops to counterattack Wuding and eliminate the threat from northwest Kunming.

The battle ended around March 15th. The revolutionary army defeated the Qing army's defense line, restored more than ten county towns, and annihilated more than 20,000 enemies. The most important thing was to open up the access path to Sichuan, so that western Yunnan and southern Sichuan Guangfu Districts were united, and another major province was involved in the battle group.
