Volume Two Chapter 232 Aid

The news of the Sino-Japanese armistice was just heard within both sides. Sun Yat-sen, who was far away in Tokyo, received a secret tip, and decades of struggle experience told him that the opportunity he was waiting for finally came.

After the Second Revolution, Sun Yat-sen was almost defeated in China. Not only did he lose his domestic foundation and supporters, but he even fewer and fewer people followed him after him after fleeing to Japan. What made him even more depressed was that the Japanese government, which had always supported him, changed his original attitude, suddenly cut off economic support, and even toughened him to Taiwan. He was placed under house arrest for a period of time. It was not until the Japanese domestic economic crisis that he began to change this bad attitude.

Due to his days in Taiwan, he was unable to directly control the affairs of the revolutionary party in Japan. The revolutionaries who lacked funds and spiritual support were disintegrated, which caused many comrades in the party to be tempted by money and power such as Song Jiaoren, Liao Zhongkai, etc., and thus he returned to the country to participate in politics. Even the Zhigong Party, which was far away in the United States, changed its original supportive attitude and turned to neutrality under the lobbying of Liao Zhongkai. This series of blows made Sun Yat-sen very frustrated. He even had the idea of ​​disbanding the revolutionary party.

However, Sun Yat-sen was Sun Yat-sen. Xiaoqiang, who could not be beaten to death, was the best evaluation of him. At the lowest point in his life, he ushered in the fruits of love. His wife was in his arms, which made Sun Yat-sen feel much younger and his political frustration reduced a lot, thus slowly cheering up. After the war between China and Japan, Sun Yat-sen, who had a keen sense of smell, immediately noticed the arrival of opportunity, but he did not act immediately, but waited for the opportunity. When the Japanese Navy and Army were bleeding in Chinese territory, an old friend came quietly to visit, and he was Uchida Ryohei, the leader of the Black Dragon Association.

Uchida Ryohei came to visit his old friend as a private person. Of course, when he left Sun Yat-sen, he left a check of 300,000 yen for Sun Yat-sen. He closed the check calmly. Sun Yat-sen knew very well what the Japanese had made, but it didn't matter. If he wanted to make a comeback, he had to rely on the Japanese forces to succeed. Both of them had their needs. As for what they would do in the future, Sun Yat-sen felt that the most important thing was to let himself first grasp the power of the country.

Isn’t there a proverb in Western countries? There are no eternal friends or eternal enemies in this world. Politicians do not need to talk about conscience when doing things. Conscience is just a beautiful cloak to cover up dirty means. The Japanese want to rely on Sun Yat-sen to disrupt China’s political situation and make profits. Isn’t Sun Yat-sen the same? The two are just using each other. Today’s friends join hands to laugh at each other. Who knows whether swords will meet again tomorrow?

Sun Yat-sen, who received the economic support of the Japanese intelligence department, finally took a breath until the Sino-Japanese armistice negotiations began. Sun Yat-sen judged that the real opportunity had come. As expected, the Sino-Japanese armistice was signed shortly after the signing. On the surface, there was no winner in the Sino-Japanese War, but just for this armistice agreement, a considerable article can still be made.

The discontinuation of revolutionaries a few days ago led to many party members leaving the party. But it also made the entire revolutionary party core more pure and cohesive. All the party members left behind were Sun Yat-sen who could absolutely trust and follow him.

In the Japanese-style courtyard in Tokyo, Sun Wen, wearing a kimono, sat cross-legged at the entrance of the corridor, with a cup of sake in front of him. The melodious sound of silk and bamboo came quietly, and the snow was floating in the courtyard, and a few wintersweets were blooming red.

"Sir, Mr. Xu and Mr. Chen are here." A Japanese servant walked closer and said softly.

"They are here? Hurry up, invite them in!" Sun Wen stood up and ran over barefoot before he even had time to wear his shoes.

"Dongyun, Kuishi, you are here so fast! I thought you were coming only in the evening, hahaha, come on, come on, please come inside." He laughed heartily. The two of them couldn't help but move their eyes to his bare feet when they looked at Sun Wen in front of them.

"Brother Yixian, your move is quite like the style of Cao Mengde of the Three Kingdoms."

"Haha, Cao Mengde is nothing more than the inconvenience of Japanese customs. I heard that my old friend was too anxious to get out and I didn't have time to put on my shoes." Sun Wen smiled and shook his head.

"Okay! This is the real man. His true nature!" Chen Shaobai clapped his hands and laughed, took off his shoes and stepped onto the floor barefoot. Xu Tongxiong next to him was amused. The same was true. The three of them entered the yard together.

Although the small Japanese-style courtyard is not as exquisite as Suzhou gardens and not as majestic as the large courtyards in Beijing, it also has a unique flavor. Two friends were invited to sit down in the place where he just sat cross-legged and poured two cups of sake in his own hands.

"The house is simple, so Sun can only treat guests with wine."

"It's okay!"

The three of them looked at each other and raised their glasses to drink together. After putting down the cup, Chen Shaobai looked at the simple layout around him and Sun Wen's ordinary clothes and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Yixian is a revolutionary pioneer, and the Prime Minister of the Party is so frugal, which is really admirable!"

"Where are there." Sun Wen smiled and said, "The revolution has not been successful yet, and comrades still need to work hard. Our Chinese nation has been weak for hundreds of years, and now the world is a period of great change that has never been seen in thousands of years. At this time, of course, we must put the country and the nation first, so why talk about personal enjoyment?"

"Well said it well! Well said it well!" Chen Shaobai and Xu Tongxiong praised at the same time, especially Xu Tongxiong interjected: "In the early years, Brother Yixian once said a sentence, that is, 'The world is for the public'. This statement is in line with Fan Xiwen's 'worry about the world before worrying about the world, and then having fun with the world'. It expresses the great ambitions that a true revolutionary should have. Over the years, Brother Yixian has always cared about the country and is indomitable. His revolutionary ambition is really touching. Come on, let's respect Brother Yixian together."

The three of them laughed and drank a glass of wine together. Unexpectedly, when Sun Yat-sen poured wine for them, he found that the wine was gone.

"Come on, come again to make a pot of wine!"

"Sir, there is no alcohol at home." The Japanese servant trotted over and lowered his head.

"How could it be? Go and look for it!" Sun Wen said a little unhappy.

"It's really gone. This pot of wine was bought by the wife a few days ago as her jewelry for money."

Although the servant's voice was soft, both of them could hear it clearly. Sun Wen was stunned and looked embarrassed. At this moment, Mrs. Sun in the room heard the sound and walked out. Seeing the empty wine bottle on the plate, Mrs. Sun smiled faintly: "I'll go get wine."

"Wait!" Chen Shaobai quickly stopped him. He was neither deaf nor blind. He heard what he said just now. Did they even ask Mrs. Sun to exchange their own things for them to drink after they came? If the wine was really exchanged, could he continue to drink it?

"This is money. Go and make a few pots of good wine and buy some side dishes." Chen Shaobai took out a few notes from his arms and stuffed them into the servant's hand and ordered.

"Kui Shi, this..." Sun Wen was about to stop him, but Chen Shaobai said seriously: "Brother Yixian, we are all revolutionary comrades, why bother talking about you and I am so clear? That's it. If not, Chen will say goodbye."

"Oh...Okay..." Sun Wen thought for a while, finally nodded and agreed, waved his hand to signal the servant to go and go back quickly, but the embarrassment and decline in his expression were clearly visible.

They sat down again and temporarily used the tea and water brought by Mrs. Sun to replace the wine. The three of them continued to speak.

"Brother Yixian, is the situation in the party not good? Could it be..." Chen Shaobai asked.

Sun Wen shook his head and sighed. Xu Tongxiong next to him helped explain a few words. When he heard that the revolutionary party had lost most of its overseas aid due to Song Jiaoren and others, resulting in an extremely insufficient party funding. Now, relying entirely on Sun Wen's savings and selling personal belongings, a hint of anger flashed across Chen Shaobai's face.

"This Song Dunchu is really hateful!" After slamming the table, Chen Shaobai cursed: "At the same time, they were members of the Tongmenghui, even if there were differences in political views, they could not do this. Isn't this the relatives laughing at the enemy? Someone told me that Song Jiaoren has colluded with Beiyang since he went north and abandoned the revolutionary concept. I didn't believe this, but who thought it was true, damn! It was really hateful!"

"Dunchu has difficulties. It is not so easy for a country to govern, and the Beiyang situation is great, how can he not cooperate as the prime minister? As for collusion, this is too heavy. Song Dunchu's character will never do this." Sun Wen did not curse Chen Shaobai's words, but instead helped Song Jiaoren to defend himself with understanding.

"I absolutely can't do anything. I think he has completely deteriorated! He has become a lackey in Beiyang!" Sun Wen's explanation not only did not let Chen Shao silence, but he became even more angry. He immediately mentioned a lot of things. Of course, he was just heard about these things, and he didn't know how many truths there were.

"Haha, it's just that three of them are just tigers. It's normal for Song Dunchu to be in a high position to have some wrong words. Kuishi! Some things are true after all, they have to be seen, and they hear them. Dunchu and I are old friends. I can still trust his character, but Dunchu has always been idealistic, some ideas are good, and the heart for the people is sincere, but I'm afraid that I will be confused by the people below and take the country on the wrong path!"

"That's right, it should be that." Xu Tongxiong expressed his agreement on the side, helped Sun Wen to persuade him for a few words, and Chen Shaobai finally regained his peace.

"Brother Yixian is humble, I admire you!" Chen Shaobai drank all the water in the cup in one sip, put it down heavily, and then took out an envelope from his arms and handed it on his hands.

"This is..." Sun Yat-sen said a little strangely.

"I know that Brother Yixian is in a difficult situation and lacks the amount of revolutionary funds. I traveled in Southeast Asia for many days and finally raised 750,000 yen. This is a check to do my best."

"How can this be done? I can't stand it." Sun Wen hurriedly stood up and refused to take it back, but Chen Shaobai refused to take it back. The two of them went back and forth until Chen Shaobai said that if they didn't take it back, they would turn against Sun Wen. Sun Wen reluctantly took it back.
