The explosions at the two city gates in the north and south awakened half of the people in Hangzhou, but they still could not wake up the Hangzhou general Ruixing. He was not in Hangzhou at this time, but in the brothels in the Japanese concession of Gongchen Bridge, fifteen miles outside the Wulin Gate, only his deputy deputy commander Deji was still in the city. The explosion of Wulin Gate and the sound of gongs and drums caused the soldiers of Zhengbaiqi, who were stationed in Manchengping, to wake up from his sleep, but no one could guess that there would be a revolutionary party siege, and he thought it was water there.

They were confused, and only after half a cup of tea, they saw some dark shadows touching the door. However, it was almost dawn, and the sky suddenly became very heavy. The flag dick on the door shouted twice as usual, but the city did not respond at all. Suddenly, a few muffled sounds of "bang...bang...", and several small fire lights flew out from the darkness. They couldn't see clearly from a distance. When they flew closer, they saw something black. When the flag dick was surprised, the black dick dick "boom!" made the flag dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick dick

The first battalion commander Yu Mengting squatted in the distance and saw the flags on the city tower flying and blew, and he couldn't help feeling relieved. He was born in the salt owl. Most of the soldiers in the camp were water bandits Yan owl. They were often chased and killed by Qing soldiers before, but now they can kill the lairs of the people. How can he not feel comfortable? While the thunder on the city tower exploded, the city gate below was also exploded by engineers. With a shrill whistle, the first battalion took the lead and the second and third battalions followed. More than 800 people rushed to the city wall.

The troops in Zhejiang were no more than outside the pass, and there were no grenades, but only made some kerosene molten bottles. As for the street fighting weapon shotgun, they only urgently adjusted 70 shots at the Changxing Coal Mine. When there were not enough rifles, they made many red tassel guns, which were considered as powerful tools for hand-to-hand combat. Pinghai Gate is the gate that is closest to the western city wall. After rushing into the city, the troops did not disperse, but directly swept the Manchu military camp inside the gate. Then they rushed to the Hangzhou General's Mansion in the southwest corner.

The explosion outside Pinghai Gate made the entire city of bannermen know that something big happened, but most of the pampered master soldiers did not stay in the military camp, but fell asleep at home. Some scattered resistance was solved, and the revolutionary army pierced the entire Manchurian military camp like a steel knife cutting a watermelon, and then divided two units with a flying thunder cannon, rushing straight to the Hangzhou General Mansion and the Dutong Mansion in the southwest corner in the southwest corner.

The Hangzhou General was not in the General's Mansion. However, the General's Mansion's guards were still ready to catch the enemy. After a black and black shot, countless kerosene bottles were thrown into the General's Mansion. Under the flames, flag soldiers were constantly shot and killed. For a while, the flying thunder cannon was loaded. With a "bang", the explosive pack turned and flew straight into the mansion, and then a familiar "boom". The screams inside were only heard outside the mansion. When the flying thunder cannon fired several rounds, the entire General's Mansion was shaken, and another even more violent explosion sounded at the front door of the General's Mansion. As the bricks and tiles splashed, the thick gate of the General's Mansion was blown away and disappeared. Before the smoke and dust had dissipated, the company commander Xia Xiaobian's Anhui accent was shouted: "Crush! Crush! Catch the General! Catch the General!" After that, he took the lead and rushed in.

The general in Hangzhou lives in the general's mansion. Xia Xiaobianzi finally grabbed this errand, but when he came into the general's mansion with more than a dozen vicious soldiers, he heard the sound of panic-ridden female family members. He searched the entire general's mansion but did not find Ruixing's bird feather. He pulled a man in a flag dress and slapped aside, shouting: "Where is Ruixing? Where is Ruixing? Where has he gone? Did he escape?!"

The man was probably a tent, and had long been shocked by the previous explosion. Now he was surrounded by such a group of killing gods, and he could not say anything except kowtow. Seeing him step forward like this, Xia Xiaobianzi lifted his braid, and during the struggle, he could only smell a scent of urine, and immediately kicked him out for more than a foot away.

When Xia Xiaobian failed, Wang Jinfa, the Second Regiment, won the grand prize. The engineer broke the wall quickly. When the soldiers rushed to the Futai Yamen, Governor Zhang Zenggui only put the white silk on his face and was caught alive before he could reach his head. Wang Jinfa looked at him waiting for death, and smashed his face with a gun, scolded: "Isn't it faster to find a gun? If you don't want to die, just say it."

From rushing into Hangzhou City at four o'clock to rush into Hangzhou General's Mansion and Futai Yamen at four o'clock, the entire raid took only 50 minutes to complete the battle. The large-scale resistance had ended in Hangzhou City. The rest was to clear out all kinds of hidden dangers, especially when the first regiment attacked Manchu City, it only occupied the Manchu barracks and General's Manchu Mansion to the west. The Manchu residential area to the east has not been cleared, and these deep courtyards still have the possibility of hiding soldiers.

Wu Yuanzhi, who was welcoming the Revolutionary Army at the Futai General, met the second regiment commander Zhong Guanggao and said, "The troops of the regiment commander Zhong are really powerful. Lan Sun is now wondering, is this new army wrong? Or is it because the Japanese were reserved when they were taught, and they didn't teach them all?"

As the general manager of the Military Preparation School, Wu Yuanzhi hopes that the Revolutionary Army will win, and at the same time, he hopes that the new army will not collapse so quickly. At least the training of the new army also condenses his new school. Just now, more than 900 people were dispersed by Wang Jinfa's more than 300 people, which really made him doubt what he had learned.

"Brother Lan Sun, the Fuxing Army has always been brave and fearless in death when fighting! There is a saying in the army that is called 'Battles are heroes, bullets are fools'. When fighting in the streets in the city, the battle is courage and life. The new army can only run far away and shoot, and once they walk into a few bayonets, they become cowardly. Although they have many people, they can't dispose of many people. At most, nine hundred people can use two or three hundred people. Once the soldiers in front are cowardly, the soldiers in the back are in chaos. What else can be fought in this battle?"

Seeing that it was a comrade's duty, and with the joy of occupying Hangzhou, Zhong Guanggao couldn't help but say a few more words unceremoniously. Then he felt that he was the general manager of the Martial Arts School after all, and was much older than him. After that, he ran away in shame. At this time, the messenger came to report that Zhu Shaokang's men had occupied the Ordnance Bureau and the Chuilou in Chenghuang Mountain.

"Okay!" Zhong Guanggao slapped his thigh hard. In this way, his mission was completed, and he didn't know how the whole city was going. "Send the order to take care of Futai, the Ordnance Bureau, Huancui Tower and the gates of each city. The captured soldiers should do the cleaning as soon as possible. By the way, how is Zhou Zhaoxian going? Have you touched the cannon?"

Zhou Zhaoxian was the battalion commander of the Third Battalion. He was also the officers sent from Zhejiang to Northeast China to participate in the Liaoxi guerrillas two years ago. Wang Jinfa was like a leopard and Zhu Shaokang was like a cow. Then he was like a jackal. He took the more than a thousand patrol teams outside the city to deal with. When he went there, Zhong Guang told him to pay attention to artillery.

"Report to the regiment commander. The patrol team has no cannons...there is no cannons we want." The messenger looked happy and his tongue was knotted.

"What does it mean to have no cannons we want?" Zhong Guanggao was puzzled. Is there anything else I don't want? "No matter what kind of cannons, I'll drag them into the city." He ordered. It is extremely important to ensure the safety of Hangzhou's city defense if you don't understand the next move.

The messenger shouted and went there. Zhong Guanggao spread out the map of Zhejiang and looked at it. Although Hangzhou is now down, Jinhua should not be a problem. But after occupying these two places, how should we fight next? While he was staring at the map in a daze, he heard the guards outside "salute", and soon he heard Zhong Mei's voice.

"Haha, you're fine. I caught a high-ranking official and I didn't catch anything." Zhong Mei took over the city so smoothly. The Eight Banners soldiers were not even as good as the Green Camp. When they heard the explosion outside, they rushed out to defend the enemy, but they hid home, fearing that the guns and shells would fly over. There were one or two old men, the children wearing the Eight Banners military uniforms, trying to rush out and fight to the death, but they all fell to the ground after a random gun.

"I don't have Maxim here, why don't we change it?" The brigade commander and political commissar came in, and Zhong Guanggao said after saluting. The deployment and military equipment configuration of the Qing army in the city were clearly checked by the students of the Military Academy, especially the situation in the camp was the top priority. But after all, the combat plan was arranged to attack the whole city in a regiment, and Zhong Guanggao couldn't beat the other side.

"Don't say that Maxim, it's bad temper when mentioned. None of them is useful." Zhong Mei shook her head, "All of them are all prodigal sons!" Although Maxim has six, she has never been maintained before. The gunshots are so rusted. If it weren't for the repair, Zhong Mei would have wanted to kill the Manchu Tartars.

Zhong Mei complained, and the political commissar Zhang Chengyue next to him smiled and said, "Bu Jin, don't complain. If there weren't such Qing soldiers, would we have been in such a smooth manner?" After he said that, he asked Xiang Zhong Guanggao again, "How is the Second Regiment? Is the new army strong in combat?"

Zhong Guanggao shook his head, "It's better than the patrol team, and at least he still has the fighting consciousness. However, once the hand-to-hand sword approaches and kills some of them, he will be timid and cannot win. They can basically fight according to the battle. It's okay to have enough distance in the wild, but street fighting is absolutely not possible. They, I think, are equivalent to Japanese divisions who are not familiar with the law and have weak fighting spirit."

The new army will be the main enemy after the Fuxing Army, and everyone attaches great importance to this. As soon as Zhong Guanggao said about the new army, Zhong Mei's complaint stopped. After he finished speaking, Zhong Mei, who was still not satisfied, said: "That's all?"

Zhong Guanggao smiled bitterly, "Just fight for a few bayonets, and then they all collapsed. By the way, some people in the new army said that the new army was going to rebel a few days ago, which almost fell to the Nanxing Bridge. Although it was not adjusted in the end, only three bullets were fired by each person. This probably also had an impact on combat effectiveness."

Zhang Chengyue said: "This is what our people did. At that time, it means that since we can't indict him, we will disturb him and make Manchus not trust him. If there is no bullet in his hand and no one can fight, I see that what you said is about to break down at a touch is not accurate. When you go back, write a report. We all need to carefully study the New Army's practice and combat habits."

Zhang Chengyue was talking, but there were several middle-aged men at the entrance of Futai Yamen. It was already bright, but there were no pedestrians on the street in the morning light, so the guards were discovered as soon as they came out of the corner of the street. However, when they saw that they were holding the red eagle flag, the guards put their guns down. The group of them walked to the Futai Yamen, and then showed a document. The guards checked one by one when they saw this.

These people were actually from the government affairs team. Nearly two hundred people came to Hangzhou by a clutch from Shanghai several days ago and had been lurking everywhere. They only came out after the sound of gunfire in the city stopped and took over key departments of all sizes in the city. After the guards checked, they put these people in the Futai Yamen. Only two women and a few students were stopped. Qiu Jin and others were stopped, and they were brought by Tao Chengzhang.

Seeing this, Tao Chengzhang pulled Cai Guoqing, the head of the government affairs group, [Note]. He said: "Guoqing, they are also comrades, why..."

The government affairs group cooperated with the Revolutionary Army to occupy Hangzhou in accordance with discipline. It directly obeyed the military political commissar Zhang Chengyue, but Cai Guoqing was Cai Yuanpei's cousin, and Cai Yuanpei's actions were led by Cai Yuanpei. He wanted to control the situation before, but Zhang Chengyue took the blame for "All orders are followed by the General Staff" and came back without any slight or hard.

"Huanqing, although I am the leader of the government affairs group, there is no way to deal with these soldiers." Cai Guoqing curled his lips, his expression on his face was a little strange. After saying this, he went into the mansion. He only threw Tao Chengzhang outside the door. Tao Chengzhang stood outside the door and couldn't move forward and retreat. Qiu Jin and others were actually not entirely official members of the Revival Society, but were just prepared members. He was also a good decision to bring them to Hangzhou.

"Brother Huanqing, you'd better go in. I'll go back there first to help." It's contrary to Tao Chengzhang's dislike of the discipline of the Revival Society. Qiu Jin felt that such a revolutionary party was several times better than the Tongmenghui. If the revolution had strength, it had to have discipline, and if there was discipline, it would have to have a level. However, in the Revival Society, her level was also high.

In this case, Tao Chengzhang had to go in. Hangzhou was occupied, which was a happy thing, but how to gain a foothold in Hangzhou is something that everyone is worth worrying about.

When Tao Chengzhang stayed outside the mansion, Cai Guoqing had already passed the Yimen Gate and entered the second hall. Zhong Mei and others, who were discussing the future battle situation, stopped and listened to them report the situation in the city in the Wenshang Hall. The government affairs team introduced the situation. He Xunye, the deputy leader, came from a prominent family in Shaoxing, and was a scholar.

"The treasury, treasury, grain station, copper yuan bureau, Lijin bureau, weaving bureau, telegraph bureau, electric light company, letter delivery bureau, Hangzhou newspaper office, these local government departments have sent people to take over, and the money and grain in the warehouse will be counted before noon; all alleys and yards are sending people to promote the announcement of the Revolutionary Army, and after breakfast, the city's security chief, the A and the signboard chief will come to have a meeting, and the original tax officials will also notify them to attend the meeting in Futai Yamen according to the list; morning market, grain shops, vegetable markets, and various shops have already notified them to open the market as usual, and must follow the prices in the previous few days and not increase the price. The Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce of all walks of life have also sent people to contact the guilds of all walks of life; there are only the consulates of the Three Kingdoms in Hangzhou, except for Britain and Japan, and the US consulates have been closed last month. They are not in Hangzhou, but in the Japanese constituency of Gongchenqiao, and now they have sent people to inform the consulates of the two countries..."

Occupy of a provincial capital involves all aspects. What He Xunye said was some details that needed to be controlled by occupying Hangzhou City. After listening to He Xunye's report, Zhang Chengyue said: "How is the temporary court prepared?"

After so many things, Zhang Chengyue only asked about this, and He Xunye said: "It's ready."

"Then let's arrest a few corrupt officials first, and take out more of the Manchus; the vassal treasury and grain treasury should be extremely deficit, and some people can be arrested; tax police, patrol officers, and yamen runners to see if there are any people who are angry, and they will also arrest some of them; and the officials who drink blood in the army must also arrest some of them; and then the houses in Manchus will start to be confiscated. After the house is confiscated, they will put out all the silver and extravagant possessions, price them, and find some poor people to take a look; in the end, the Han people who are being tried, exclude those people who are out of the public anger, and everyone else will agree to them that if the responsibility is not pushed to Manchus during the public trial, then you will not think that there will be good results..."

Cai Guoqing thought Zhang Chengyue was going to do what the court was going to do, but who knew what he meant was to interrogate those figures. Which of the officials of the Qing Dynasty was innocent and were all very dark. "Yinge, if this was the case, the whole city would be in chaos. The gentry who had just surrendered to the yamen runners would inevitably have some relationship with those corrupt officials. If they were to be listed like this, they would be afraid that other places would not respond, which would be unfavorable for us to occupy the entire Zhejiang."

"Brother Guoqing, Zhejiang is not so easy to occupy this." Zhang Chengyue shook his head and said, "Although the whole city has seized more than 10,000 rifles, most of them are old-style rifles, and these inventory bullets are very wet, and some cannot get angry. It is not easy to defend Hangzhou, and it is a delusion to occupy the entire Zhejiang."

The Ordnance Bureau is very important. Zhang Chengyue went to see it in person in the morning. After opening the warehouse, there were a lot of guns stored inside, but they were basically Lin Mingden's needle gun, lifting gun, and Martini gun. Moreover, the bullets of these guns have been stored for too long, and many of them have already regained their momentum. It is probably difficult to use them. As for the guns that can be used, there are only a part of the city, the patrol teams outside the city and inside the city, and the new army's hands, but except for the weapons of the new army, the others are improperly maintained and many of them are unbearable to use.

Although Cai Guoqing was hit once last night - he wanted to instigate the patrol team to rebel through the gentry in the city, but Zhang Chengyue rejected it. But when he saw that he took Hangzhou in the morning, he was not very angry. Now a basin of cold water was poured down by Zhang Chengyue, which made him really stunned. Although he was very talented and short-sighted, now that Hangzhou has been abandoned, it is not far from occupying the entire province of Zhejiang. Who would have thought that Hangzhou would not be able to occupy it.

"Yes...but...it doesn't mean that the Japanese Guihui in Wuchang is going to be in charge, and...the Tongmenghui is also going to be in charge..." Cai Guoqing did not know about military affairs, but knew that the current trend was civil strife in the Qing Dynasty. Revolutionary parties in various places were working on the matter.

"Brother Guoqing, you have been on the road these two days. I don't know the news outside. Last night, the Military Intelligence Bureau had notified us that the Rizhihui organization was cracked by Zhang Zhidong. Liu Jing'an, Zhang Nanxian, Li Yadong and other major backbones were arrested. They were no longer able to make a promise. There was also news in the morning that Zhang Zhidong was mobilizing the new Hubei army and sent troops to encircle and suppress the Hangzhou rebellion today." Seeing the troops attacking the city in the morning, Zhong Mei sent a telephone to report to the General Staff Department that Hangzhou had been put in - the soldiers of the first regiment were basically Taihu water bandits, Yan Xiao, and Jian Gong, and the soldiers of the second regiment were Shengxian robbers. He didn't believe that these people would not be able to take the Hangzhou city. What he was most worried about was the domestic situation, especially now that the Beiyang mutiny has stopped. In the case of the worry-free situation in the center, Hangzhou was the focus of the whole world.

"What about the Tongmenghui..." Cai Guoqing still didn't give up and asked again.

"The Tongmenghui doesn't know, but they have not moved. Now we are the only ones moving in the world. And we occupy Hangzhou with one move. It looks very glorious. In fact..." Zhong Mei was born in the Liaoxi Games Guerrillas, and what he feared most was that the enemy was dark and we were bright.

"Then we can't do anything public trial, especially for the Han people. We should do our best to win over them and let them take our side. Ran Man should be the first in the revolution." Cai Guoqing was confused and suddenly grabbed the word Ran Man. After he said this, He Xunye and others next to him meant this, thinking that the Manchus would be the Manchus this time, and don't expand the scope to the Han people anymore.

"Public trials are mainly Manchus, and those Han people who are being tried are basically handled together with traitors. The revolution is not just a national revolution, but a revolution in the middle and lower classes of society." As a political commissar, Zhang Chengyue's theoretical knowledge is also not bad. There are three hatreds in the Revival Army, one is the hatred of the great powers, two is the hatred of foreign races, and three is the hatred of the rich and poor (civil officials). Without these hatreds, the army would have no morale.

"But the most important thing now is the dispute between Manchu and Han. It is really inappropriate to kill the Han people in order to fight Manchus." Cai Guoqing argued.

"Only by killing those Han people who are arrogant and do good deeds, the lower-class people will think that we are reliable and conquer the world for them. Only in this way can they believe us. The gentry is not reliable. Once the Qing soldiers arrive, they will immediately surrender to the Qing Dynasty. The most important thing now is to hurry up and public trials, kill people and corrupt officials, so that the people can believe us. In addition, the government affairs team must immediately send a telegram to the world and hold an imperial examination to let the poor scholars know that we will give them a path to the sky."

Zhong Guanggao's idea was really strange. He actually wanted to hold the imperial examination. He Xunye said: "But isn't this imperial examination aborted?"

"Brother He, you are a scholar. If you don't lose the imperial examination, will you still participate in the revolution?"

"I..." He Xunye was stunned when he heard this and said, "But what should I do if no one comes to take the exam?"

"It's just a statement. How can we wait for scholars from all over the country to come to Hangzhou for exams?" The Revival Association did not want to reverse history. In order to win the hearts of scholars, the cannon was also set aside. Zhang Chengyue also said: "There are also grains, taxes and liquors from all over the country, and they will be cancelled."

"Ah!" This time it was not He Xunye. Even Tao Chengzhang was surprised later. He shouted: "The revolution was first established, and it was time for a large sum of money to be needed. How can we cancel taxes and lijin?"

"Only by canceling these two things, the people will feel that we are good. There is also the Tongyuan Bureau, which will also gather people from all over the world in the near future. When they destroy the casting machine, the rice shop owners who are not happy with the people will also beat them." Although Mu Xiuyulin was not good, occupying Hangzhou was equivalent to giving Fuxing a stage to attract the attention of the world. In this short advertising time, you need to think carefully about how to show the best side of Fuxing. Of course, this is just an advertisement. How to buy the real thing and only know it after the people in the world buy it.

In these strategies set by Zhang Chengyue, not only killing people, but also killing corrupt officials, abolishing grain, and canceling taxes is to please the lower class; canceling lijin is to please foreigners; opening the imperial examination is to strive for those poor scholars who have no money to study abroad and have no way to become officials. These things are actually consistent with the revolutionary strategies in the meeting. However, his foothold is that Hangzhou cannot be defended, while Cai Guoqing, Tao Chengzhang and others believe that they must continue to defend Hangzhou. (To be continued...)
