According to the agreement between Japan and China, the Japanese themselves are responsible for the security of the concession. Although this incident caused a burst of indignation among the upper echelons of Japan, the final result can only be to ask Yuan Shikai to arrest the murderer. If Japan really sends troops, screw the other powers.
He won't agree either. This Japanese hater can only write it down first.
After completing this matter, Yuan Shikai finally felt relieved. He specially asked Liu Yong to bring 10,000 silver dollars to Ma Xingkong as a reward for Ma Xingkong. Liu Yong conveyed Yuan Shikai's intention and finally said: "Uncle Master.
!Yuan Shikai has a heart problem this time. I'm worried that he will be harmful to you. Are you..."
Ma Xingkong smiled: "Haha, you go back and tell Yuan Shikai, just say it was me who said it. My grudge against him must not be settled like this. I will definitely avenge the master! One yard counts, I Ma Xingkong divides it."
It’s very clear!”
Liu Yong sighed deeply, nodded, and clasped his fists at Ma Xingkong: "In that case, uncle, take care, if you can find my place, just send someone to send a message!"
After sending Liu Yong away, Hei Wa asked Ma Xingkong: "Brother, how are you going to deal with Yuan Shikai?"
Ma Xingkong shook his head: "I don't know either, but he must die! From tomorrow on, you and Long Jie will go to Xinhua Gate to keep an eye on me. If there is any trouble with Yuan Shikai, report it immediately! I don't believe it, he
I can live in Zhongnanhai for the rest of my life."
Today is already the tenth day of March, and the short spring is coming to an end. The weather is getting hotter day by day. Ma Xingkong is a little worried about Wu Jing and the others. He doesn't know if they have arrived safely in the Northeast or if he has seen them.
My second brother Zhang Xueliang, nothing will happen on the road. Only when the two of them are separated do I feel so missed.
"Brother! Someone is looking for you!" Xiao Shunzi ran over, followed by a tall, casually dressed man with a big hat covering his entire face.
Ma Xingkong watched for a long time, and then he recognized that it was Li Dazhao. He hurriedly stood up and gave up his seat, asking Xiao Shunzi to pour water: "Sir, you are a rare visitor. This place is a bit shabby. Don't mind, sir."
Li Dazhao took off his hat and looked around: "Not bad, not bad, it's a good place, clean. I wish I could have such treatment as Xing Kong someday! Haha..."
The two of them were drinking water and chatting in the yard. Ma Xingkong asked, "Sir, I'm afraid you're here dressed like this just to chat with me, right?"
"Haha!" Li Dazhao smiled: "Since you asked, I will tell you that this time I got it right!"
"Going out of the mountain? What are you doing? Besides, I'm not in the mountain either."
Li Dazhao laughed loudly: "There are not many people in the world today who act as willfully as Xingkong. Recently we are preparing to launch a massive anti-Yuan movement in the capital. You and I both know that Yuan Shikai is very powerful. Just relying on student demonstrations
It is absolutely impossible to march on a parade and resist other people's steel guns and cannons with flesh and blood, so I want to ask Xingkong to come forward."
"Me?" Ma Xingkong waved his hands repeatedly: "I only have three or four people under my command. How can they be of great use? Sir, you really think highly of me!"
Li Dazhao shook his head: "I am dissatisfied with Xing Kong. We have secretly organized a team of 500 people. We just lack a talented leader. So I thought of Xing Kong. I wonder if Xing Kong has this intention?"
"Five hundred people?" Ma Xingkong thought for a while but said nothing.
Li Dazhao said: "Five hundred people is indeed a bit small. When the time comes, with the help of students, ordinary people, workers, and your Youth Gang, as long as we get close to Xinhua Gate and occupy the Presidential Palace, then Yuan Shikai..."
Ma Xingkong pondered for a long time and agreed to Li Dazhao that he would bet his life on it. Even if he succeeded, Yuan Shikai's followers would regard him as a thorn in their side. If he failed, Yuan Shikai was the emperor of the Chinese Empire and he would lead the attack.
The people in the emperor's palace are rebels, and ruining their reputation is a trivial matter. Whether they can leave the capital alive remains to be seen.
"Are Xingkong worried about failure?" Li Dazhao looked at Ma Xingkong: "Or are you worried about something else? My 40 million Chinese compatriots are living in dire straits, and patriotic young people like Xingkong should move forward without hesitation, even Xingkong
If even the sky is retreating, what hope does China have?..."
Li Dazhao's words grew louder and louder, and in the end, it seemed that Ma Xingkong had become a sinner of history because he refused to agree to this matter, and became an object of reviled by people all over the world, a traitor no different from Yuan Shikai and his like.
Ma Xingkong hurriedly stopped Li Dazhao: "Sir! Sir! Stop! Am I really as shameless and treacherous as you say?"
Li Dazhao looked at Ma Xingkong: "Does Xingkong agree?"
Ma Xingkong smiled: "If I continue to disagree, I will become a heinous villain. Do you think I have any other choice? But I have a condition!"
"explain!"
"I just want to force Yuan Shikai to abdicate and clean up Yuan Shikai's affairs. I want to rely on my own strength!" Ma Xingkong said solemnly: "This is the grudge between me and Yuan Shikai. If he killed my master, I will kill him!"
"If you are sure of this, why don't you think about it again?"
Ma Xingkong smiled: "I'm not as good as your husband when it comes to holding such demonstrations, but compared to murder and arson, your husband can't compare to me! Sir, don't forget what I used to do!"
"Hahaha..." Li Dazhao laughed loudly: "Okay! In that case, Yuan Shikai's life will be left to you! As long as Yuan Shikai abdicates, our goal will be achieved. There is one more thing!"
"What else?"
"Cao Kun and Yuan Keding are familiar with Xingkong, and they are Yuan Shikai's confidants. If they stand still when we take action, we will be sure of victory!" Li Dazhao looked at Ma Xingkong's eyes.
Ma Xingkong also looked at Li Dazhao: "Yuan Keding will definitely stand still and even add insult to injury. Yuan Keding has long had many ideas about Yuan Shikai's position. After two failed assassinations, Yuan Shikai put him under house arrest. He hopes that Yuan Shikai will step down soon!" Ma Xingkong
Kong sighed and continued: "Cao Kun is hard to say. Cao Kun is Yuan Shikai's absolute confidant. These two people are in harmony with each other and do not have enough interests. I am afraid that Cao Kun will not betray Yuan Shikai!"
Li Dazhao nodded: "Then please Xingkong to test Cao Kun's tone and see what conditions he proposes!"
Early the next morning, Ma Xingkong and Long Jie drove into the city in a foreign car. Several soldiers guarding the city at the city gate were checking the passers-by. Long Jie asked Ma Xingkong: "Brother? We
Do you want to put on makeup so these bastards don’t get us into trouble?”
Ma Xingkong waved his hand: "No, I'm worried that I can't find Cao Kun. It's good to have them leading the way!"
Ma Xingkong told the coachman that there was no need to queue up and he could just rush inside. When the guarding soldiers saw the two troublemakers coming, they shouted loudly: "Stop! Stop! What do you guys want to do?"
The driver was frightened and hurriedly stopped. Ma Xingkong got out of the car, walked up to several soldiers, and looked at them for a few times. He slapped them with big round hands, "Pah! Pah! Pah!" and slapped them on no one's face.
: "You bastard, are you blind? You don't even recognize me!"
Several soldiers were stunned by Ma Xingkong's beating. They covered their faces and didn't know what to do! Ma Xingkong was still angry: "Which one of you is the captain?"
A beaten soldier stood up quickly: "I am!"
Ma Xingkong looked around again: "Send someone to take me to Cao Kun's house. Hurry! If you miss me, you will kill them all with one shot!"
