Chapter 33 Black Dragon Club
Speaking of the famous Black Dragon Society, probably not many people don’t know it. But Zhong Yang prefers to call it the infamous extreme spy organization invading China.
Originally in the history of time and space, the Black Dragon Society was a Japanese militarist organization. It was established in 1901 and dissolved in 1945. It once cooperated with Sun Yat-sen and other revolutionaries to attempt to overthrow the Qing government of China. On July 30, 1905, under the mediation of the Black Dragon Society, various Chinese revolutionary organizations jointly established the China Tongmenghui at the headquarters of the Black Dragon Society in Tokyo.
In this time and space, the process of things is almost like this. In northern China, especially in Heilongjiang, the Black Dragon Society has the most powerful force. "Heilong Club" was established after the brand of "Xuanyang Club" became a new stove. It was established in January 1901 to continue the cause of "Xuanyang Club". Toyama Man also handed over the important task of leading the "Hailong Club" to Uchida Ryohei, who was only 26 years old.
However, most Chinese people call the "Black Dragon Society" the Black Dragon Society. As a notorious extreme right-wing organization, the Black Dragon Society, like the Xuanyang Society, has an open program of invasion of China. Take the Black Dragon Society as an example. The purpose of this community is: "Recalling the overall situation of East Asia and the imperial duty, in order to implement the economic prosperity of East Asia, and to set off the power of the West to spread east, the current urgent task is to go to war with Russia first, repel it in East Asia, connect Manchuria, Mongolia, and Siberia into one, and build the foundation for operating the mainland."
Between the lines, the north of China is regarded as the back garden of Japan. Perhaps for the Japanese, the Black Dragon Society is a progressive organization, but for the Chinese, the Black Dragon Society plays a role as a pioneer invading China. From the purpose of the Black Dragon Society, it can be seen that this is a vicious invading China organization. Its goal is to first repel the Russian forces that invaded the three northeastern provinces of our country during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900, and then annex the three northeastern provinces, Mongolia and Russia's Siberia. There is a famous river Heilongjiang in this area, so the association is called "Black Dragon Society".
Although Zhong Yang did not want to stay in Beijing for too long, he had carefully learned about some of the information about the Black Dragon Association. After checking the relevant information, Zhong Yang also began to be strongly wary of this organization. 20 years ago, the Black Dragon Association played an important role in promoting the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War through public opinion and private lobbying of senior military and political officials. The result of the Russo-Japanese War finally caused the Japanese invaders to invade my country's northeast. It is worth mentioning that Uchida Ryohei, the leader of the Black Dragon Association, established the "Tianyouxia" organization in 1894, and went deep into the rebel army of the Dongxue Party of Korea, which played a certain role in promoting the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War of 1895. It can be said to be the vanguard of Japan's foreign aggression.
However, it was this vicious invading organization, the Black Dragon Association and its leader Uchida Ryohei, who established a very close cooperative relationship with the China Tongmenghui and Sun Yat-sen. Uchida Ryohei met Sun Yat-sen through Miyazaki Inzuo in 1898, and went to Singapore to help Sun Yat-sen organize the Huizhou Uprising in Guangdong in 1900. In July 1905, Sun Yat-sen went from Europe to Japan, and the preparatory meeting for the establishment of the China Tongmenghui was held at the home of Uchida Ryohei, Tokyo on July 30. At the meeting, Uchida Ryohei officially joined the China Tongmenghui. Soon after, the member of the Black Dragon Association, later the soul of Japanese fascism Kita-Ikki also joined the China Tongmenghui.
In his book "Japan Asia", Ryohei Uchida mentioned that Sun Yat-sen had lobbyed Japanese government officials and opposition officials since 1906, using the establishment of the country south of the Great Wall after the Chinese Revolution, and the Manchuria and Mongolia gave it to Japan as a reward for Japan to aid the Chinese revolution. On the eve of the successful peace talks between North and South in early February 1912, Sun Yat-sen and Huang Xing negotiated with Japanese political veterans Kin Inoue and Ayuto Yama Prefecture and other negotiations to Japan for aid of 10 to 20 million yen to the revolutionary party, in exchange for China to transfer the three eastern provinces to Japan in some form. Due to the successful peace talks between North and South on February 12, this intention was invisibly dispelled.
Why can Sun Yat-sen and the Tongmenghui form such a close relationship with some Japanese invading forces? The Black Dragon Society is an open political group named after Heilongjiang. There are various public publications that promote their aggression proposals. Uchida Ryohei spared no effort to promote his aggression ideas through his writings. If Sun Yat-sen and the Tongmenghui do not understand the aggression position of Uchida Ryohei and the Black Dragon Society, it would be too far-fetched. Since we understand our position and are too close, we must reach a certain consensus on the basis and conditions of cooperation, which is in sharp contrast to Kang Youwei's resolute refusal to meet with Sun Yat-sen during the same period. Then, to reach a consensus on cooperation with the Black Dragon Society, which has the fundamental goal of annexing Manchuria and Mongolia, what other conditions for cooperation may be provided besides giving up Manchuria and Mongolia?
Zhong Yang was too lazy to pursue and explore the political conspiracy implicitly in these matters. Whether it was the Tongmenghui in the past or the revolutionary party in the present, Zhong Yang could not see China's hope in them. In the original history books of time and space, the winners always changed history beyond recognition according to their own will, and many truths were buried in the ruins of history. Politics always showed the best side to the people to cover up its dark and dirty nature. This is also the reason why Zhong Yang was unwilling to participate in politics. He did not want to be the type of person he once despised the most.
China's politics should be chosen by the Chinese people's own thoughts and public opinion. Whether it is the Soviet Union, which had just won the October Revolution, or the Japan, which has been booming since the Meiji Restoration, the political groups they support will definitely not be able to bring hope to China's future.
No matter how wonderful the boast is, just compare the map of China in the late Qing Dynasty and China in the aftermath of the founding of the People's Republic of China to know what kind of determination our leadership has to treason. Zhong Yang has always sneered at these dirty political compromises and concessions. A political organization that only acts arrogant to the people but is servile to the outside world will eventually be nailed to the pillar of humiliation in history.
Chi Zoeff, who came to Hongfa Company to look for Zhong Yang on the same day, was a Japanese businessman in China, but in fact he was a leader of the Black Dragon Association in Beijing. Chi Zoe also had close ties with the Japanese Army Headquarters and could be regarded as a member of the armed pioneering regiment with a military background.
Zhong Yang really didn't notice that Chi Zoyve wanted to deal with him. Now he is still immersed in the production and trial production of guns and ammunition. He has basically spent all the cash he got from robbery, and he still keeps antique calligraphy and paintings, and plans to collect it himself.
Using the large amount of iron ore I bought, Zhong Yang finally established a preliminary arms processing production line within the smart factory. The current fixed products are mainly mk·iii type rifles. This is a rifle with a total length of 1.013 meters. Unlike most rifles with longer body, mk·iii type rifles appear shorter. Its caliber is 303, which means that the bullet used in this Enfield rifle is 7.7x56mmr rifle bullet. Although the magazine capacity is only five rounds, it is equipped with double magazines. The actual bullet capacity is ten rounds, which can provide a very powerful fire suppression capability.
The initial velocity and range of the bullet are not very good, the initial velocity is 738 meters per second, while the range is only about 300 meters. However, Zhong Yang valued this gun because the operation of the Enfield series rifles has always been very simple. With a little training, anyone can use this gun well.
During the first battle, the soldiers used actual combat to illustrate that this Enfield iii rifle is actually a good rifle. It is accurate, reliable, has rapid firepower and is easy to operate. British soldiers must go through individual shooting practice and volley shooting practice. A well-trained soldier can aim and shoot 15 rounds in one minute. Some British documents even say that the rate of fire can reach 30 rounds per minute, which is faster than any manual rifle at that time. When British soldiers fired continuously in a volley, the German soldiers felt as if they were suppressed by machine gun fire. Such fierce indirect firepower from large to large will be unforgettable for their lives.
Such a rifle is suitable for Zhong Yang's needs. It is simple to operate, fierce firepower, and acceptable cost. It is precisely because of the ability to produce this rifle independently that Zhong Yang has the idea of suffering some peripheral combat personnel. In this era, the most unnecessary thing is people who pick up weapons for a meal. Zhong Yang does not want to always use mechanical servants as combat units. This not only affects the production capacity of smart factories, but also becomes irreparable for a short period of time if it is damaged.
In order to free up more production units, Zhong Yang has moved all the machines that produce cigarettes out of the sub-space. All the mechanical servants have been put into production of new rifles. Because a series of basic equipment in the primary chemical industry is still under construction, there is no way to produce bullets. Zhong Yang has no choice but to buy them from Smith first, and because the number of purchases is a bit large, it attracted Smith's skeptical eyes. But Zhong Yang, who is determined to develop private armed forces, can no longer worry about so many.
The entire Enfield rifle production process was presented to Zhong Yang. The thermal reactor directly purifies the iron ore, and the refined steel is poured into the steel rolling mill to process it into a gun barrel. The waste residue is not useless. They can be used to extract other useful raw materials, but Zhong Yang cannot use those raw materials yet, so he can only be placed in the newly built warehouse first.
The various parts of the gun body are also directly stamped with molds, while the mechanical servants are responsible for assembling all the parts with wooden gun bodies. The wood used to make the gun body is some useless waste wood and even wood chips purchased by Zhong Yang, but as long as it is processed, it becomes good quality wood products.
The most important limitation of production efficiency is that the number of mechanical servants is too small and cannot keep up with the work efficiency of the machines. Zhong Yang is worried about taking out the parts and letting others assemble them. Although privately producing arms in this era is not a big deal, it is inevitable to encounter oppression and exploitation of the power class. Zhong Yang doesn't want him to work hard for a long time, but the peaches he planted will be picked by others.
It is better to be more stable in producing arms. Zhong Yang held the Enfield rifle freshly released in his hand and silently warned himself in his heart. Seeing the cigarette industry booming, Zhong Yang felt unprecedented worries. Because the people from the "Anfu Club" came to Zhong Yang for political cash again, the number of times became more and more frequent, and the number was exaggerated every time. It seems that some people have begun to jealous of this business and want to clear the market.
