Chapter 433 Return to Guangzhou
Although this is a ***, it is easy to get reliable news, but his duty is to protect Sun Yat-sen and others' lives in Yokohama. From another perspective, he is also monitoring Sun Yat-sen and his group's every move. These days he has not paid attention to China's information. If the Black Dragon needs to let him know about new progress, he will definitely send someone to notify him. Since no one comes to inform him, he does not need to worry about this.
"The assassination of Guangdong Governor Wu Shaoting was nine days, and the news reached Tokyo was about thirteen days. Unfortunately, our sources of information were limited, so it was only these two days before we found out." Chen Qimei said, and Jiang Zhiqing then translated it.
Uchida Heizo frowned. It was already 23 days. It was only two or three days at the latest when news came from China. However, no one had contacted him during this period. Obviously, Toyama Man and others had no intention of taking action, at least they did not rush to act rashly. He looked at Chen Qimei and Jiang Zhiqing in front of him. It was obvious that the attitudes of these two Chinese friends were very different. Whenever there was any disturbance in the country, they immediately wanted to make trouble, but they did not know that the real big thing would not be urgent.
"I'm so ashamed. After so long, I didn't hear any news. I wonder what Mr. Sun Yixian thinks?" He didn't intend to express his feelings directly, and asked indirectly.
"Brother Chen has just returned and has not had time to inform Mr. Sun. But no matter what, you should be very clear about Mr. Sun's current situation. Even if we have the intention to use this opportunity to recreate the momentum of the revolution, we need to rely on your support before this." This sentence was Jiang Zhiqing's own statement. Although he was still a naughty man, he had followed Sun Yat-sen and Chen Qimei for so long, and he still had more or less analytical ability to analyze the revolutionary situation.
"Haha, so that's the case. I really have to thank Jiang Jun and Chen Jun for their trust. Let me ask you, do you really plan to just do a drastic move and return to China openly, and then raise your arms to create a new momentum of revolution?" Uchida no longer talks in Japanese at this time, but said in his not very skillful Chinese. His eyes were staring at Chen Qimei, as if he wanted to find the answer directly from the other party.
"Director Uchida, you should know the reaction of Mr. Song's assassination last year. This time, the assassination of Guangdong Governor Wu Shaoting is more serious than that of Mr. Song's case, and it can also reveal the dirty face of Yuan Shikai's Beiyang government. Mr. Sun's second revolution has just come to an end. Although it was a failure, the remaining heat in the country is still there. If we add fuel to the fire at this time, the effect we can get will definitely be much greater than the momentum of the last revolution. This time, we will definitely hit the Beiyang government with a headache!" Chen Qimei heard Uchida Heizo start speaking Chinese, and immediately put aside Jiang Zhiqing and made a passionate remark.
"Jun Chen, you should understand that it is because the Second Revolution has just ended that you have arrived for a few months. Now you have to take action in a hurry, but I am afraid that there will be some shortcomings in all aspects. I think this matter should not be done immediately, and you must make a long-term plan." Uchida said word by word, trying to make his Chinese express it as clearly as possible.
"Mr. Dean, as the saying goes, time is endless. If you miss this opportunity, who can tell the truth in the future?" Chen Qimei said with an insistent attitude.
Uchida Heizo pondered for a moment, then said, "Since that's the case, I will discuss it in detail with Mr. Sun in the evening. I will send a telegram to Tokyo in a while and ask my brother Uchida Ryohei for advice. But there is a saying that, even if we cannot miss this opportunity, we must not be eager for quick success or instant benefits. It is not scary to miss the opportunity, but what is scary is to waste the opportunity."
"Thank you, Mr. Uchida, please rest assured. We all understand the principle of cherishing opportunities. This time we must consider all aspects carefully and strive to make the flames of revolution shine brightly." Chen Qimei said confidently.
After seeing off Jiang Zhiqing and Chen Qimei, Uchida Heizo indeed sent a telegram to Tokyo. However, in fact, he was not convinced by Chen Qimei's excited words. Everyone knows the passion of the Chinese Revolutionary Party, but only has a passion. As international friends, they can do not have much other than material and economic assistance. The purpose of this telegram he sent was only to consult Mr. Toyama Manta. No matter what his attitude was, he could find a reason to deal with it here.
At the end of June, a British Swire Company ship from Shanghai to Guangzhou was on a merchant ship. Wu Shaoting was under the awning on the deck, blowing the sea breeze and drinking coffee while carefully considering a document in his hand. After negotiations by the Shanghai Maritime Bureau, the merchant ship was given to Wu Shaoting and his party with a 20% discount on the total number of tickets. The cost was naturally reimbursed by the Presidential Palace. Now, except for the crew of the Swire Company, the rest are all guards and attendants of the Guangdong Governor's Office.
After the assassination at the beginning of the month, the pressure on the Beiyang government at home and abroad has increased sharply every day, and it has not eased until today. The day before yesterday, there were rumors in Shanghai that the Beiyang government had arrested two suspects, but one was shot dead and the other was seriously injured and unconscious. It is still in the hospital for rescue. As for the following article, I am afraid it will take a while.
At this moment, although the scars on Wu Shaoting's back still hindered his daily life, his mood has improved a lot recently. An Ran's departure from *** is only part of it. The most important thing is to reach another agreement with Yuan Shikai to help clarify the innocence of the Beiyang government in his assassination case. It has to be said that this agreement is equivalent to Yuan Shikai's concession for nothing. Wu Shaoting himself did not pay any price except for standing up and making public remarks.
Wang Changling followed the boat to the deck, holding two plates of steak and fried rice that had just been prepared in the kitchen. When he came to the pergola, he handed one of them to Wu Shaoting, then pulled open the chair and sat down, and started to eat one of his own with a knife.
"Governor, do you really want to make a statement according to this text? It would be fine if we help the Beiyang government clarify it. Yuan Shikai also asked the Governor to read such a stingy manuscript. This is not a clarification. This is a complete praise for Yuan Shikai!" Wang Changling glanced at the documents in Wu Shaoting's hand and complained unhappily.
The document in Wu Shaoting's hand was a speech compiled by the Presidential Secretariat after meeting with Yuan Shikai a few days ago. At first, he just read it hastily and did not pay much attention to the wording. It was nothing more than just proving that the Beiyang government has nothing to do with the case. At best, it is a bit of praise for the attitude of the Beiyang government to handle the case. Although "form" is optional, it still has to be divided into the situation. I have read the manuscript carefully these days, and there are too many tones in it that make people uncomfortable, and I have a servitude.
Fortunately, there is not room for maneuver now. Yuan Shikai has always hoped that Wu Shaoting will make this remark on ***, but Wu Shaoting has become more cautious and insists on returning to Guangzhou first before making an open power. The decision was made at that time not because of the content of the manuscript, but because he was worried that Yuan Shikai would readily fulfill the agreement.
