Chapter 31 The Red Eunuch,

When Meng Li and Eunuch Meng were a little surprised when they heard an errand came to their door, but they were even more confused. He urged Wu Shi and Ren Yijiang and said lightly: "Mr. Wu, Brother Yichen, it's windy outside. If you have anything to say, please come into the house and say it." As he said that, he made a gesture of Suke, and then walked towards his broken shack first.

Wu Shi and Ren Yijiang looked at each other and followed one after another. Although Eunuch Meng was too rich, he was driven out of the palace and the wealth accumulated over the years was not allowed to be taken out of the palace, so the broken shack can only be described as the four walls of the house, and there is no decent decoration. There is only one missing leg, a broken wooden table with bricks, two benches with a piece of broken wooden board, and there are some broken quilts on the bed. There are three small stools, a stove with a fire. There are also a pot of boiling water on the stove. In addition, there is a smell of smell in the room.

Wu Shi frowned and said nothing, but Ren Yijiang sighed: "The palace is too unreasonable. If you can't catch Xiao Dezhang and exert your anger, you will attack his apprentice... But now it's the Republic of China! Even Emperor Xuantong is just an ordinary citizen. Why do you confiscate other people's hard-earned money? You thought you were the emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"

Meng Li didn't answer, and moved a small stool and sat down. He found a broken bowl and took a sip of hot water. He sighed, as if he was talking to himself: "It's just a king who has lost his country. It's good to save his life. The little glory in front of him is probably just a mirror and a moon... What other benefits can those piles of wealth besides being guilty of possessing a treasure?"

As soon as he said this, Wu Shi and Ren Yijiang couldn't help but change their faces slightly, and they admired this poor eunuch in their hearts. They really have seen the world in the Forbidden City! There is really something in their stomachs...

Wu Shi smiled slightly, bowed to Eunuch Meng, and said with a smile: "Mr. Meng, I think you already know our purpose. Let me tell you the truth. Our lord is just trying to pick out the wealth in the hands of the old and young people in the Qing Dynasty and use it for the great cause of saving the country and the people... If Mr. Meng can help us, after the matter is completed, how about we and Mr. Meng's account with him?"

Meng Li smiled coldly and shook his head: "I don't want money, I want official! What lord is your military leader in Beiyang, right? This Mr. Wu's temperament is an old corps who have been around for many years... I think of such a person, I, the young Mengzi, have seen so many people at the beginning, and I can't hide it from me. You dare to make Puyi's idea. It seems that the power is too small. I can follow you to conquer the world... If you achieve great achievements in the future, you will also be a founding father, and you will build a graphic hero's pavilion. Mr. Wu, do you think it's okay?"

Wu Shi nodded slightly and praised in his heart: "What a good eunuch Meng, it's not simple, he's a character! He also knows that there's something like killing people to silence! 30% of the money is a big deal... After the matter is done, if you want to survive, you have to join the team and work with them. With such a brain, you might really have a great future in the future."

Thinking of this, Wu Shi attacked Eunuch Meng and smiled and said, "My brother's surname is Wu, and his name is Yi Shi. He is now the deputy commander of the Model Regiment of the 13th Division of the Army. If Brother Meng doesn't mind our model Regiment, I can make the decision to let you join. However, I don't have to say that being an official is a matter of officialdom. Our leader decides, otherwise you will go with us and meet our General Leader Chang. How about it?"

...

It was the end of December 1916. After Chang Ruiqing returned from a blind date in Tianjin, he immediately received the order for promotion. His military rank became a colonel, and his official rank became the leader of the model regiment of the 13th Division of the Army! He was considered the top rank of the small warlords! If he finds a chance to "break through" and he can enter the ranks of the great warlords. At this time, it was only a few months before he graduated from Baoding Military Academy... This speed of promotion was fast even in the chaotic times of the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China.

After being promoted to commander, Chang Ruiqing seemed to be a little corrupt. He also followed other Beiyang Army commanders and battalion commanders and bought a big house in Nancheng, Beijing. It was rented, not bought. Although our Battalion Commander Chang was not proficient in the economic history of the Republic of China, he also knew that in this chaotic year, the houses in Beijing were falling all the way. It was definitely not as Professor Lang said in later generations, buying a courtyard house in Beijing in the early years of the Republic of China could greatly appreciate... This person probably had never heard of communism or something?

Although he had a house in Beijing, Chang Ruiqing still stayed in the military camp all day long, busy expanding the model camp into a model regiment. However, at noon today, he suddenly received a call, and then threw a lot of things to Bai Chongxi, Wang Junhao and Zhao Zhen and the others. He brought Tang Jiu and Hu rolling curtains and rode on a fast horse and ran towards the direction of Beijing.

By the afternoon, he was already in his house in Beijing, smiling and talking to a former eunuch about the truth of the Red Revolution.

"Comrade Meng Li, to put it simply, our red revolution is justified! It is to incite, um, to encourage the suffering slaves all over the world to rise up and rebellion of the Creator! Then build a world of great harmony that is shared with blessings and difficulties! Thisism has long been popular in foreign countries, especially in European powers. It is Mr. Sun Yat-sen's Three Principles of the People, which also draws on their European redism in many aspects. However, Mr. Sun's Kuomintang is mainly engaged in wealth, so he cannot let go of it in many aspects, and there are not many red things..."

Eunuch Meng had already found a bathhouse to clean himself before coming to see Chang Ruiqing. Wu Shi paid for him to buy him a new dress and dressed up and looked at him. He was really a handsome guy with a handsome face. If he was born decades later, he would be able to take the Central Academy of Drama, and the Shanghai Opera and other things would be fine.

Listening to Chang Ruiqing's revolutionary theory, Eunuch Meng also nodded frequently there and echoed: "The Red Revolution sounds like a hairy bandit's approach... Nowadays, there are more people suffering, and it can be a complete revelation. Unfortunately, there are easy things to do with difficulties, and sharing blessings will be lingered. Otherwise, Hong Yang's two rebellions in Tongzhi Nian would have entered Beijing, and the world would not be in chaos now..."

Chang Ruiqing smiled and then stopped laughing, shook his head and sighed: "It's really rare for Mr. Meng to have this insight. This redism does have this problem. When he conquers the world, he works together and no one cares about gains and losses. But it's really successful and he still has to fight for power and profit."

Meng Li sneered and waved his hand: "As long as there are all wealth and beauty in the world, it is impossible to share the blessings with each other. But, the poor people living in the eighteen levels of hell have to listen to this! Everyone has a lucky mentality, fantasizing that they can become the founding father of the country, rather than being a ghost under the knife. Commander Chang," said this, he suddenly lowered his voice and leaned forward slightly: "You are now the commander of Beiyang, and your bright future is within your reach. Wouldn't it be a bit of a loss to make this red revolution? If something goes wrong..."

In front of Meng Li, Chang Ruiqing praised his big brother and said, "Mr. Meng is indeed a great sage hidden in the city. I will not hide it from Mr. Wang. I still have to do the job of this Beiyang regiment commander. It is only because of a group of soldiers and a brigade that they want to pacify this chaotic world, and it is always a bit inadequate to unify the world!"

As soon as he said this, Wu Shi, who was sitting next to Chang Ruiqing, also had his eyes lit up. His boss’s mind is the world! Then will he, as the deputy commander, be the "deputy commander" in the future? He may be able to go further...

"So Commander Chang wanted to use the sign of the Red Revolution to revolutionize the Qing Dynasty and destroy the military expenditure of millions and tens of millions of taels of silver?" Eunuch Meng looked at Chang Ruiqing and asked word by word.
