Chapter 133 Retreat
Chapter 133: Retreat with all your body
After Wu Shaoting left, Wang Yun, Li Wenqi and others walked forward along the alley in a dull manner.
"Mr. Wu is a revolutionary party? Alas, it's really hidden! I remember Mr. Wu had tortured the revolutionary party before, but he beat the prisoner to death." Li Wenqi said naggingly.
"This was done by Lord Wu on purpose. If the prisoner hadn't really known about the revolutionary party, Lord Wu would have silenced him." A soldier said in speculation.
"Oh, ah, what happened today is too sudden! I'm a little uncomfortable. Tsk tsk!" Li Wenqi said with a sigh.
At this time, Wang Yun, who was walking in front, stopped and turned coldly to look at everyone behind him.
Li Wenqi and others were startled, stopped, and looked at Wang Yun for no reason.
Wang Yun pointed at Li Wenqi and said in a threatening tone: "You immortal, from now on, who is talking about what happened just now, don't blame me for being rude. Since we have helped Lord Wu, we must help to the end. Are you whining like a woman now, afraid that others will not know that Lord Wu is in the same group with them?"
Li Wenqi swallowed a mouthful and his vest became cold.
The other soldiers were also stunned. For the first time, they felt that the King of Team King was so oppressive, and at the same time they were afraid of the unrestrained discussion just now. This is the alley, and there are residential buildings around them. What if people hear the discussion, isn’t this a way to seek death?
Wang Yun snorted and scolded: "You all listened. Everyone was having breakfast just now. When they came to Hu, they only met a few suspicious people. After searching, they were let go without finding any situation. We have never seen any rebellious party or Lord Wu! It is clear."
"It's clear."
"Understood."
“Yes, remember.”
Everyone responded quickly and then continued to move forward.
After Wu Shaoting separated from his old subordinates, he calmly stolen into the crowd of the long dike with Liao Zhongkai and others. While walking, he deliberately chatted and laughed, pretending to be nothing. He was wearing a military uniform, deliberately looking arrogant and striding in front of him.
After finding a place with few people, they immediately walked down the long dike and came to the river beach.
The fishing boats on the north bank of the West River filled the entire river beach, and even several layers were stacked on the front and back. Some prostitutes with heavy makeup were wearing high-slit cheongsams, sitting at the bow of the boat, crossing their legs with slender white legs, deliberately creating signs of exposing themselves.
Wu Shaoting walked to a fisherman who was drying fishing nets and said loudly: "Does your boat cross the river?"
When the fisherman saw Wu Shaoting wearing military uniform, he asked in confusion: "Mr. Jun.com, there is a pier ahead. Wouldn't it be more comfortable to take an iron boat there?"
Wu Shaoting said impatiently: "Do you think I want to take your broken boat. Tell you that I was ordered to accompany this Japanese gentleman to visit Guangzhou. He is a scholar. You must experience the boat. Go and drive the boat quickly!"
The fisherman was a little embarrassed and said, "Mr. Jun, yes, but I still have to dry the net..."
Wu Shaoting said angrily: "Are you trying to die? Go to the boat quickly." He said, touching a piece of ocean to give it to the fishermen, "This is the boat fee, don't fucking toast and not eat the punishment!"
Under such coercion and temptation, the fishermen certainly had no choice but to put away the fishing net and run to drive the boat.
Wu Shaoting walked back and pretended to be respectful and said to Liao Zhongkai: "Only speaking Japanese on the boat, pretending you are Japanese." He said to others, "Don't talk, just treat it as a follower."
Liao Zhongkai studied Waseda University in Japan in 1902 and was later promoted to the Central University of Japan. Japanese language was of course a matter of skill for him. However, he just saw that Wu Shaoting had a bad attitude towards the fisherman and was a little dissatisfied. He originally wanted to remind Wu Shaoting a few words, but after Wu Shaoting finished speaking, he walked directly to the fishing boat.
When everyone got on the boat, Wu Shaoting communicated with Liao Zhongkai in Japanese that he didn't know much, which was deliberately letting the fishermen see it. If the government came to investigate in the future, as long as they asked if they were foreigners, they would not continue to investigate.
After arriving at the south bank, Wu Shaoting took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. It was already ten:30 in the morning.
The south bank is no longer considered the urban area of Guangzhou. In addition to the several relatively new buildings by the river, it is just a small town in its twilight years. The government has put all its energy into the urban area, and naturally it is very strict with its guard here, and everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Wu Shaoting ordered that he could escort Liao Zhongkai alone, while the others would scatter to inform Hu Hanmin, Tan Renfeng, Zou Lu and others, asking them to leave Guangzhou as soon as possible. If they could not leave for a while, they would transfer their pseudonyms to the township to hide for a while.
Everyone nodded and left in a hurry.
Next, Wu Shaoting accompanied Liao Zhongkai to the west along the riverside.
"Zhenzhi, are the people I met in the alley just now reliable?" Liao Zhongkai asked.
"I spent a while in the old army, and they were all my old subordinates. I had a good relationship with them and they respected me very much. Since we have escaped from danger, this means that they are of course very reliable." Wu Shaoting replied with a smile, and he sighed in his heart that it would be helpful to make a big relationship with others.
"This time is so thrilling. Uncle Fourth and the others are afraid...ah. If you didn't come here in time, I'm afraid I'm really doomed." Liao Zhongkai said in a heavy tone.
Wu Shaoting originally wanted to teach Liao Zhongkai a lesson. He had said earlier that Chen Lianbai could not believe it, but suddenly he felt that everything he said now was nonsense, and there was no need to add fuel to the fire.
"I really should have believed in the words of Shi Zhizhi, it was my fault." Liao Zhongkai said blamingly.
"Mr. Zhongkai, don't blame yourself. Who has no fault? After this disaster, I just hope that Mr. Zhongkai will be more attentive in the future. The uprising is not a joke, but this is the comrades who are fighting for their lives. They must be cautious and cautious." Wu Shaoting said sincerely.
Liao Zhongkai nodded deeply and said with difficulty: "Zhen Zhi, you are right. This lesson is too important to me. I will never make the same mistake again!"
After pausing, he said again: "It's a pity that everyone has prepared a month's plan and it's just a terrible shot."
Wu Shaoting smiled and said, "A failure in an action is not terrible. Keep the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood. As long as the revolutionary power is still there, when the beginning of the upsurge, raise your arms and shout, the revolutionary fire will be ignited again."
Liao Zhongkai was silent for a while, and suddenly said with some regret: "Zhenzhi, actually I want to say sorry to you."
Wu Shaoting was puzzled and said, "How do you say this?"
Liao Zhongkai sighed and said, "Because I have never paid attention to you before, I always thought you were just a senior officer in the New Army barracks, that's all. The only purpose of fighting for you is to hope that you can lead more soldiers to join the revolution during the uprising operation. So in the preparation meeting, I almost never heard any opinions from Zhenzhi, and even did not ask Zhenzhi to attend several meetings!"
Wu Shaoting suddenly realized that no wonder the new army uprising was such a big deal. He only participated in two meetings and decided the time for the uprising. It turned out that the Tongmenghui had held many meetings behind his back. After hearing what Liao Zhongkai said, he finally knew the Tongmenghui's attitude towards him before.
He was a little unhappy, but he didn't say much. Since Liao Zhongkai has made it open and honest, it means that after today's incident, Liao Zhongkai will re-adjust his attitude. There is no need to say anything complaining, as if he says too much, it will be a bit of a scammer.
Liao Zhongkai glanced at Wu Shaoting and said earnestly: "But today it seems that Zhenzhi is brave and resourceful, and good at managing troops. The old subordinates in the past could let us go because of their old feelings, which is enough to show your ability. In addition, some time ago, there was a lot of news about the strongest army in Guangzhou in the city, and they were all talking about Zhenzhi's actions."
Wu Shaoting smiled indifferently and said, "It's just a false reputation. I have no practical experience at all, so I should not take it seriously. As for Mr. Zhongkai's view of me, I don't care. What the revolution needs is unity and obeying the central idea. I don't compete for fame and fortune, so why do we need everyone to listen to my opinions?"
Liao Zhongkai nodded deeply and praised: "Shocking, I appreciate people like you, knowing the general and the overall situation. You are a rare military talent. You are not only loyal and courageous, but also persist in the great cause of the revolution. From now on, I will give you all the military operations of the Guangzhou Branch to be responsible for."
Wu Shaoting was very happy. It was not because he was given the attention of the Tongmenghui, but because Liao Zhongkai supported himself to be responsible for all revolutionary military operations in Guangzhou. This meant that his revolutionary qualifications were increased several times at once. Once the Great Revolution was successful, senior revolutionary veterans would inevitably control the core military and political power.
It is not difficult for him to imagine that Liao Zhongkai's trust in himself is now deeply rooted. Since he is responsible for military operations, when the Guangzhou Military Government is established in the future, he will definitely stand in the position of controlling military power.
The army is the capital of revolution. With the army, there is power, and that's what you want.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhongkai. I will do my best to complete every task as the organization told me." Wu Shaoting replied solemnly.
Liao Zhongkai finally felt relieved. The Wu Shaoting he expected was to be able to obey him, so that the revolution would not go on a deviant path. He was a civil and political figure who did not understand military affairs and was able to control a military talent to serve.
Of course, he thought he could see through Wu Shaoting, but Wu Shaoting also had his own wishful thinking.
Human hearts are always unfathomable!
Wu Shaoting and Liao Zhongkai came to the river beach on the westmost side of the south bank. It was already past eleven o'clock. Most of the fishing boats moored on the river beach were smoked, and the fishermen were preparing their own lunch. Four hundred meters away from the river, the bell tower of the Christian Church in the British and French Concession could be vaguely seen. Several light tonnage British ships were also anchored on the Beijiang River channel, with the muzzle Yang Wu and Yang Wei facing Guangzhou City.
The concession does not mandatory for Chinese people to enter, of course it depends on the identity of the Chinese.
Foreign police would blow all the little sluts out like wild dogs. These ragged people not only affect the atmosphere in the concession, but also are even a breeding ground for petty theft.
Wu Shaoting could not accompany Liao Zhongkai across the river to the concession because the Chinese people would be on guard when they did not have diplomatic tasks, which would be very unfavorable for Liao Zhongkai to hide.
Standing on the river beach, Wu Shaoting asked, "Mr. Zhongkai, how much money do you have?"
Liao Zhongkai flipped through his pockets and said, "There are only more than twenty yuan left."
Wu Shaoting flipped through several imperial marks from his pocket. He had never exchanged the money, otherwise he would have spent it. He stuffed the money to Liao Zhongkai and said, "After you arrive at the concession, don't speak fluent Chinese, just pretend to be a Japanese. There are ships directly to Hong Kong in the concession. No matter what, you will leave Guangzhou and go to Hong Kong one day today."
"But, I didn't bring my passport." Liao Zhongkai said worriedly.
"The ticket to Hong Kong should only cost four yuan, and the remaining money can be used to bribe foreigners. Tell them that you went to the inland with your partner, and your passport dropped in a hotel in Hong Kong, so that the foreigners can send you on the ship. The British are still very polite to the Japanese and should not be difficult for you." Wu Shaoting said immediately.
"You don't need a passport to get on the boat, but you have to check your passport when you get off the boat and leave the dock!" Liao Zhongkai added.
Wu Shaoting looked at Liao Zhongkai carefully, helped him tidy up his collar, and said, "If possible, Mr. Zhongkai would better ask foreigners to help him in the concession to issue a temporary pass certificate. If it really doesn't work, you can also leave some money to bribe the Hong Kong police after getting off the ship and ask them to give it a discount."
Liao Zhongkai nodded, his face still full of solemnity.
Wu Shaoting finally said, "Mr. Zhongkai, I can only send you here. Although the government army will not find the concession so soon, it is always good to leave Guangzhou as soon as possible. The next thing is to rely on Mr. Zhongkai, you."
"I'll take care of myself, and I'll find a way to get out of here." Liao Zhongkai said solemnly. He knew that Wu Shaoting had helped enough. Although he didn't have a passport now, he had to try it even if he forced himself to break through.
Wu Shaoting watched Liao Zhongkai get on the boat, and waited until Jiang Wu disappeared, before he turned around and left.
He has no money on him now, but this is not a difficult task. It is still okay to use his military uniform to take a boat on the King of Kings. When he returned to the north shore, he simply went to Zhang Xiaoya's company again. Whether it was to get dividends or borrow money, he could get some money.
