Chapter 353 Conspiracy

"...You must remember that a country that only knows how to protest is a country without bones! A government that only knows how to protest is a government without bones! When our dignity, territory, and rights are trampled on,

We don’t need a government that still shamelessly protests! It will also be abandoned by all citizens.

I am very proud that there are very few of you who have no bones in your heart! In front of me is the resurrection of a nation with a thousand unyielding blood! This blood once flowed in the veins of our ancestors.

They have never yielded, and now they are surging inside our bodies. Tell me, are you willing to cool them down?..."

Although the speech on the radio was full of passion, Ma Longfei turned off the radio to prevent himself from listening to Li Zhiyuan's speech to Guangzhou academic circles again. He stood up from the table with the breakfast on his plate almost untouched.

He kept smoking, one after another. He walked to the window. Compared to the north, spring came earlier in Guangdong. Although it was April, it was already full of spring colors. He stared out the window,

Lighted another cigarette.

"asshole."

He muttered the word softly, his words full of hatred, and then cursed a series of words in a low voice to express his hatred and hostility towards Li Zhiyuan, Yuan Shikai and the Beijing government.

Among the Cantonese people, Ma Longfei is very conspicuous. He is tall and has no emotion on his pale face. Unlike many people, he always uses indifference to cover up his feelings. Because of the Revolutionary Party, Zeng studied in

After the Republic of China, he was unable to stay in the army, let alone be promoted. Before the Huanghuagang Uprising, he was studying in Japan and returned to China by boat to prepare to participate in the revolution. Later, he participated in the Wuchang Uprising.

Later, he and his comrades rode through the Beijing-Hankow Railway construction site under construction, joined the Wuhan military government, and became an officer.

In Hanyang, he fought a bloody battle with the Beiyang Army, and later he followed the army to Nanjing. After all this, he obtained the epaulettes of an officer and became a regimental commander. However, after the Republic of China, he only faced two choices:

Remain in the military or return to civilian life.

What to do after retirement?

Like your father, do you want to be a small businessman all your life?

So he stayed in the Army, stayed in the Hubei Army. But later, the army was reorganized into the Central Army. In the Army, those Beiyang officers easily obtained the same military ranks and military positions that he had earned with his blood and sweat.

, and he was ostracized.

This only made him drink every day, and the pain of watching those people "steal" the fruits of the revolution and surpass him in terms of military rank and privileges became more and more unforgettable.

The only way out is to revolution and continue the revolution. In the following time, while the soldiers were milling around the playground, Ma Longfei was in the city discussing the current situation with his comrades. After the Song Dynasty case

, before the "Second Revolution", after receiving the news, he tried every means to leave Hubei and took a boat to Jiangsu.

After he arrived in Jiangsu, he saw only the chaos in Nanjing after the "Second Revolution", but he still believed wishfully that the revolution would be successful and he would be successful. But in the end, the dignified Jiangsu Army was defeated by Li Zhiyuan.

"Silver Bullet Offensive" was completely dismantled.

Like others, faced with the possibility of being mobilized by junior officers and soldiers, Ma Longfei chose to go to Japan by boat. During that year in Japan, his resentment turned into a growing hatred for Li Zhiyuan. In his view,

It turns out that Li Zhiyuan and Yuan Shikai are both the same, and Li Zhiyuan is even more hateful than Yuan Shikai, because Li Zhiyuan hides his true face deeper, and such an enemy is more terrifying and destructive.

Even in his opinion, if there was no silver bullet for Li Zhiyuan, and if Li Zhiyuan could generously donate military resources, then the "second revolution" might have succeeded.

When he was in exile in Japan, he joined the Chinese Revolutionary Party. When the "scandals" of the Revolutionary Party reached his ears through newspapers, all he felt was anger. His anger towards Li Zhiyuan was

In his opinion, everything was Li Zhiyuan's conspiracy. During the "Jiao'ao Incident", he also hesitated whether to return to China like other exiled soldiers.

But in the end, he chose to stay in Japan. It was his hostility towards Li Zhiyuan that made him make such a decision. During the subsequent negotiations, when he learned that Yuan Shikai had asked for the original copy of the "Sino-Japanese Covenant", he had finally treated Li Zhiyuan.

Ma Longfei, who had developed a good impression, suddenly felt a sense of disgust in his heart. Coupled with the resentment he had gradually accumulated due to the lack of opportunities, he became extreme.

Until that time, he never forgot how to suppress his political opponents. He was very determined. If such a person were to take control of the country, he would be more dangerous than Yuan Shikai!

Like other soldiers, he witnessed the death of his comrades with his own eyes, and sometimes even buried the broken limbs of those unfortunate fallen comrades with his own hands. Ma Longfei always believed that they were the backbone of society, and it was their bloody sacrifices that made all

People can live a comfortable life at home, just like it was the blood of soldiers that created the first republic in Asia. However, it was also because many soldiers were bribed that the first republic in Asia fell into dictatorship.

The experience of exile did not shake his belief at all, which is why he chose this path. In his opinion, soldiers should bear sacrifices. But to his surprise, the plan of action changed temporarily.

"You must go find them and find out what happened!"

When this thought came to his mind, Ma Longfei turned around and left his home.

"In my opinion, there is only one feasible solution. This solution can circumvent the entire network of spies and agents of the Ministry of Security, causing them to lose their intelligence sources. In this case, it is impossible for them to detect it in advance. Even if they detect it, they cannot destroy it. In this way

Then we can achieve our first goal - kill Li Zicheng."

Lei Qiang's words made Ma Longfei quickly raise his head. The room was completely silent, and only the occasional sound of raindrops hitting the pane could be heard.

"Indeed, today seems like a good opportunity, but you have to know that because this is Guangdong, they will send more people to ensure Li Zicheng's safety,"

Lei Qiang looked at Ma Longfei in front of him and continued,

"Then we must also admit that when we started planning to assassinate Li Zicheng, Li Zicheng's secret police also knew it. They would carefully protect Li Zicheng, and the operation might fail even before we started. So.

That’s why I will postpone the action and change to a place that is relatively safe for Li Zicheng.”

Ma Longfei and Song Zheping looked at him in shock. After a while, they slowly understood.

"Where is safer?"

Finally, Ma Longfei asked.

"According to the original plan, Brother Ma would dress up as a photographer and shoot in front of Li Zicheng. Judging from today's results, this plan is very successful and is the only chance to get close to him! So our plan remains unchanged!" Then, Lei

Qiang said again.

"No matter where it is, that place must have one characteristic, that is, Li Zicheng and his secret police feel that it is very safe, just like Lianyungang. Of course, Lianyungang is definitely not possible. It is the base camp of the secret police and it is difficult for outsiders to

Start there!"

At this time, Lei Qiang showed that he knew everything very well. In fact, it was he who planned all this, and it was he who chose Ma Longfei. It can be said that the whole plan was perfect in his opinion, but

I chose the wrong place.

"In places like Guangzhou, this is the base camp of our revolutionaries, so they will only strengthen their vigilance, and those secret police will go around to investigate related matters. And today, at least one thing can be proved, maybe Brother Ma

There is a chance to shoot, but there is no guarantee that a hit will hit. After all, there were several bodyguards around him at the time. However, today at least proved that our plan was very successful. We did not attract their attention. What is important now is us.

Choose a place, approach him without suspicion, and then deliver the most fatal blow when they are most relaxed."

Both listeners were silent and lost in thought. Lei Qiang's plan gradually took shape in their minds.

After a moment of silence, Ma Longfei looked at Song Zheping beside him. He was responsible for throwing bombs to create chaos in the plan. This mission was a narrow escape mission. Whether he could escape or not depended on his bomb.

“If it can’t be in Lianchengang, then it should be in Shanghai!”

"Shanghai?"

Lei Qiang couldn't help but be stunned, and Ma Longfei replied,

"If I want to say where Li Zicheng would feel safe, I'm afraid it would be Shanghai. The whole of Jiangsu is ruled by the Li family, and Shanghai is no exception. However, Shanghai has concessions from various countries, and it is a mixed place. Li Zicheng's

Even if the secret police penetrates there, it will be difficult to control the entire Shanghai. However, because Shanghai is barely his base camp, the bodyguards around him will naturally feel at home and will definitely relax their vigilance by then, and..."

Ma Longfei quickly glanced at Lei Qiang and added.

"Premier Song was assassinated by Yuan Shikai in Shanghai. If...if Li Zicheng died in Shanghai again, the whole of China would definitely think that Yuan Shikai did it, and the Jiangsu Army would definitely raise troops to avenge Li Zicheng!"

When Ma Longfei mentioned raising troops, he became excited. In fact, this was the top priority of the entire plan, which was to use Li Zicheng's death to incite a civil war and thus create the basis for the "third revolution."

Create opportunities.

"One piece at a time. Now, we have a lot of specific work to do. The first thing I want to know is whether you agree in principle with this idea and start it in Shanghai!"

Ma Longfei and Song Zheping looked at each other, then turned to Lei Qiang, and nodded slowly.

"good."

Lei Qiang sat on the high-backed chair and leaned back as much as possible.

"As the old saying goes, the more people who know, the harder it is to keep a secret. Therefore, the fewer people who know, the better. According to the schedule, Li Zicheng must go to Shanghai. You can take a boat to Shanghai today.

, I hope everything comes quickly!"

Finally, Lei Qiang seemed to sigh helplessly.

"It's such a pity that Li Zicheng is our opponent instead of... well... for the sake of the country, this is the only way we can do it!"

"Go to the capital!"

In the Yangcheng Hotel in Guangzhou, Li Zicheng looked at the telegram in his hand and was stunned. Although all this was expected, it couldn't have come at a worse time!

"Chief Minister, haven't we been waiting for this telegram? Okay, now that we have this telegram, we are in the capital. There is still one and a half months before the by-election ends. According to normal procedures, you have to decline first, and then make a big statement.

The president will send electricity again, which will be almost fifteen days. Fifteen days will be enough for you to go to two more provinces. In this case, the southern provinces will almost be finished. In this case, you can win at least more than half of the seats."

At this time, Zhang Yilin obviously did not notice the change in Li Zicheng's expression. In fact, Li Zicheng was thinking about another thing at this moment, another thing to maximize all benefits.

That plan has been implemented for some time, and in the past period of time, some news has been vaguely released, just like the telegram sent by Yuan Shikai. On the one hand, it was certainly based on state affairs, but on the other hand, it was vague.

He pointed out that he was not safe in Guangdong, so he advised him to fly to the capital as soon as possible to discuss state affairs.

In this way, on the one hand, it can protect its own safety, and on the other hand, it can give an explanation to the people. It can be said that it is the best of both worlds. But what Yuan Shikai didn't know was... just like Zhang Yilin didn't know either.

"Well, Zhongren. And Taiyan, I called you here because I fully trust your loyalty to the cause and your ability to keep secrets. In addition, this plan must have your active cooperation. Zhongren, as my

Secretary..."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Li Zicheng leaned forward slightly. In their surprise, Li Zicheng spit out the plan. When the words fell, both Zhang Yilin and Zhang Binglin were stunned by the plan. They

I never expected that there would be such a plan.

"Jing Lue Envoy, what are you..."
