After leaving the German consulate, Wu Shaoting visited Nanyang Brothers Tobacco Company, and also sent people to outside the city to inspect several juice farms and Huangpu Industrial Company. Except for the tobacco factory that was damaged during yesterday's uprising, the finished cigarettes in several warehouses were stolen, the rest were intact.

This small loss is still within an acceptable range, as long as the machinery in the factory is not damaged.

That night, Wu Shaoting also visited Zhang Zhi, Wu Guangting, Jian Zhaonan and others, and informed the establishment of the revolutionary government. He did not talk to these people in detail, just to let them settle down. The great cause of revolution has not yet been solid, and it would be a sign of being forced to support the revolutionary government. However, he believed that it would not take long for the revolutionary wave to wash away the whole country of China, and these bourgeois people would come to surrender to their own people sooner or later.

Jian Zhaonan originally planned to leave Guangzhou on a boat today. After learning about the news brought by Wu Shaoting, he finally canceled the itinerary. He expressed his support for the revolutionary government that day and made a promise that if Wu Shaoting had any needs, he would do his best to assist.

Wu Shaoting is very grateful to Jian Zhaonan for his support for the revolution. He hopes that Jian Zhaonan can help the first thing he can do is to restore the operation of Nanyang Brothers' Tobacco Company as soon as possible, and also try to drive the other industries of the Jian brothers to return to normal in Guangzhou. Once all factories in Guangzhou are shut down due to the revolution, the social unemployment and public grievances caused will be unmeasurable.

Jian Zhaonan immediately agreed.

After returning to the East School, Wu Shaoting finally had a good rest.

On January 3, 1910, the Guangdong Revolutionary Government was officially established.

Hu Hanmin initially followed the republic system, and even the positions of President, Vice President, Prime Minister and other positions were set up. After Wu Shaoting heard this news, he was so amazed that these Tongmenghui really wanted to be the leader of the country. Now, only Guangzhou City dares to establish itself as a country?

In the morning, Liao Zhongkai, Huang Xing, Chen Jiongming and other members of the Tongmenghui rushed from Huizhou to Guangzhou, and also discussed this issue. Liao Zhongkai had the closest relationship with Sun Yat-sen. He knew that the steps of Mr. Sun's revolutionary outline must be responded to by the whole country and the revolutionary army could discuss the founding of the country after the revolutionary army captured Nanjing. If you are too hasty now, you may be counterproductive.

Therefore, the Guangdong Revolutionary Government abolished the state system and was only formed in the form of local governments.

After unanimous recommendation, Hu Hanmin served as the governor of Guangdong, Liao Zhongkai was the prime minister of the Guangdong Revolutionary Government, Tan Renfeng, Zhu Zhixin, and Li Yutang served as the Ministry of Finance, responsible for preparing revolutionary military expenses; Hu Yisheng, Zou Lu, Huang Shizhong and others served as the Ministry of Civil Affairs, responsible for handling the people's livelihood work of the Guangfu towns in Guangdong. When discussing the positions of the Military Department, there were great differences within the Tongmenghui. Some people elected Wu Shaoting as minister because the achievements of Guangzhou's first righteousness were led by him, but some people believed that Wu Shaoting was too young and had little qualifications, so Huang Xing should be responsible for presiding over the revolutionary military affairs.

Wu Shaoting did not attend this discussion meeting. He was busy reorganizing the rebel army in Guangzhou.

Although Huang Xing attended the meeting, he kept holding his heather pipe in a muffled voice, hiding his face behind the smoke without saying a word.

In fact, the matter of electing Huang Xing to replace Wu Shaoting as the Minister of Military Affairs was instigated by Liao Zhongkai behind the scenes. He did not believe Wu Shaoting, nor did he think that Wu Shaoting had a low qualification, but Huang Xing must be more reliable than Wu Shaoting in comparison. The primary task after the establishment of the Guangzhou Revolutionary Government was to mobilize the revolutionary army to clear the province, send troops north, and promote the flames of revolution burned all over China. Therefore, it is easier to implement this order by taking the revolutionary army into the hands of its own people.

As for Wu Shaoting, after he recovered Guangzhou, he has been focusing on reorganizing the army and has no intention of sending troops. This alone made Liao Zhongkai feel a little relieved.

This meeting was stuck on the issue of the Military Department, and it was tangled from morning to afternoon, but it still had no results.

Hu Hanmin supported Wu Shaoting, and he should always be assigned according to his merits. Only in this way can the openness and integrity of the revolutionary cause be reflected and cannot be nepotism in everything. Although Hu Hanmin said the righteousness was unreasonable, he also received the support of some people. Most of these supporters were local members of the Tongmenghui Guangzhou. On the one hand, they emphasized regional politics, and on the other hand, they were worried that offending Wu Shaoting would cause great disaster.

Those who support Huang Xing happened to be several core members of the original Huaxing Association, such as Song Jiaoren, Zhang Shizhao and others. Song Jiaoren just returned from Japan last month and happened to meet Huang Xing in Huizhou and participated in the uprising. The other people were several members of the Hong Kong Tongmenghui arranged by Liao Zhongkai.

Both sides held a word and could not stand stalemate. Everyone felt bored, thinking that Hu Hanmin could fully demonstrate the prestige of the governor and directly resolve the issue of personnel appointments, and not to be entangled in this issue. However, there were too many uncertain factors in Hu Hanmin's thoughts, and he had to worry about Liao Zhongkai's intentions, so he could not come up with the governor's deeds for a long time.

After the afternoon meeting, a second-target staff officer rushed back to the East School and told Wu Shaoting about the news of today's meeting. The staff officer was representing Mo Qingyu to attend the Revolutionary Government Conference. He thought this matter was very important, so he came to inform the President of the Military Department. Anyway, Mo Qingyu is not in the city now and is not in a hurry to report to the meeting.

In the conference room of the Revolutionary Army Department, Wu Shaoting sat in the head seat and remained silent after listening to the report of the staff officer.

Several officials from the first target side suddenly became dissatisfied. He Fuguang said first: "What is this? What does this mean? Who captured Guangzhou? Is it Huang Xing? Why is it Huang Xing leading our rebel army? Where has our Lord Wu gone?"

Although He Fuguang was a little dissatisfied with Wu Shaoting, his current interest issues have escalated to the conflict between the first Mixed Association and the Tongmenghui. He is not a member of the Tongmenghui. Once Huang Xing is asked to serve as the military minister, I am afraid that those outside the meeting will definitely be excluded. Fortunately, Wu Shaoting represents the interests of all the new army, and it will definitely be better to follow Wu Shaoting than to follow Huang Xing.

More importantly, Wu Shaoting has drafted the draft report on the rectification of the Revolutionary Army today. He Fuguang will officially become the chief of staff of the First Division of the Guangdong Army. Once Wu Shaoting loses the position of military chief, will this draft still be valid?

"Mr. He said very much that the Military Department of the Revolutionary Government must be under the charge of Lord Wu, otherwise I will definitely not accept it." Zhang Dakai, the agent manager of the artillery battalion, also said emotionally.
