Master Lu Rongting and Bai Chongxi.
In the thirty-third year of Guangxu (1907), it was reported that the revolutionary army was expelled, and Lu Rongting of Nanguan (now Friendship Pass) in Fuke Town was promoted to the company commander of Zuojiang Town. Xuantong for three years (19 1 1), was awarded the prefect of Guangxi. During the revolution of 1911, he was promoted to deputy governor; Forcing Shen Bingkun and Wang Zhixiang to become the viceroy of Guangxi. It also divided and disintegrated the League, suppressed revolutionaries, used old bureaucrats, and established the rule of the old Guangxi family over Guangxi. Lu Rongting supported Yuan Shikai in the second revolution and was awarded the rank of General Ningwu and General Wu Yao. Before the war to protect the country, the contradiction with Yuan Shikai intensified, and they plotted for Yuan. Participate in the organization of Guangdong and Guangxi Military Academy to defend the country and Ren Fujun. As governor of Guangdong and governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Guangxi's influence extended to Guangdong. At the beginning of the Franco-Prussian Movement, Sun Yat-sen was welcomed to go south to Guangzhou, and Lu was appointed as the marshal of the joint forces of Guangdong, Hunan and Guangxi in Guangzhou to send troops to attack Hunan in order to resist the invasion of the northern army. In the ninth year of the Republic of China (1920), the troops stationed in Fujian and Guangdong and the Guangdong People's Army expelled the Gui nationality from Guangdong. The following year, Sun Yat-sen ordered the armies of Guangdong, Yunnan and Jiangxi to land in Guangxi, and Tan, a branch directly under the land, retreated to western Guangxi to continue the war of resistance.
In the 12th year of the Republic of China (1923), Chen Jiongming betrayed Sun Yat-sen, and the Guangdong Army retreated to Guangxi. After that, he fled Guangxi, lived in Shanghai and moved to Suzhou. In the 17th year of the Republic of China (1928), he died in Shanghai at the age of 70. In the 18th year of the Republic of China (1929), the coffin was transported back to Guangxi and buried in West Lion Mountain in Wuming District.
Rong ting qi Xiang
Once upon a time, there was a city god temple at the intersection of Ai Hui Road and Wende Road, where incense flourished. Lu Rongting has long heard that there are many fortune-telling magicians in front of the Town God Temple, so he thinks he is a great man and wants to give it a try. Dressed up as a businessman, he went to the Chenghuang Temple as a servant after Mami. He casually walked to a fortune teller's booth and sat down, saying that he wanted to see the fortune teller. The fortune teller naturally didn't know that the man in front of him was a warlord, so he used his usual trick to ridicule him first: "Look at you, you loser, walking around when you are dying!" " Within three days ... "Lu Rongting was inexplicably teased, furious and about to attack. His Ma Bian motioned at once, asking him not to reveal his identity. Then the fortune teller "pointed out the maze" and made up a story. Lu Rongting had to submit to humiliation, saying nothing and leaving angrily. When he returned to the capital, Lu Rongting told his assistant what had happened to him, and angrily said that he wanted to settle accounts with a fortune teller. These assistants secretly told the fortune teller to leave Guangzhou overnight.
The story spread from one word to ten words and became an interesting story. Since then, Guangzhou people have had such a saying: "Lu Rongting faces each other-well, (no) decline is about to decline!" That is, asking for trouble and asking for it. Since then, "the portrait of Lu Rongting" has become a common allegory among the people.
Wuming county name
Wuming County is located in the north of Nanning, the capital of Guangxi, and the county seat is more than 30 kilometers away from the capital. Wuming was called Wuyuan in ancient times, and Qin belonged to Xiang County. Wuyuan County was established in the first year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty (58 1). 1300, in the second year of the Republic of China (19 13), it was renamed Wuming County by Lu Rongting, then governor of Guangxi.
Changing the name of hometown county is said to be the product of Lu Rongting's call for hometown people to be famous for their martial arts, and Wuming County is the place where they are famous for their martial arts. This statement is correct. There is indeed a precedent for Wuyuan people to be famous for their martial arts. Born a wild horse, Lu Rongting ascended the throne of "King of Guangxi" and was naturally called "Liu Wuyuan". Obviously, this title can't show the dignity of the viceroy's adult, so Lu Rongting changed "fate" to "Ming" and called himself "Liu Wuming".
From the second year of the Republic of China (19 13) to the seventeenth year of the Republic of China (1928), Lu Rongting died of illness in Shanghai, and his nameless name was only 15. After the fall of Lu Rongting, the paper money printed by its mint (namely "Lu Gong Piao") immediately depreciated and became invalid. However, the word "five Ming" is widely recognized because of its profound meaning, and it has not been affected by the fall of the leading actor and handsome star, and it still resounds in all directions.
Baixing impression
Lu Rongting left a good impression on the people, because he pacified Guangxi, ended the chaotic situation in which bandits were rampant and local people were in trouble in the late Qing Dynasty, and created a situation in which people could basically live a peaceful and stable life in the early years of the Republic of China. After he retired, things were different.
After Guangxi changed its flag, the guest army did not have the ability to rule Guangxi and could not clean up the mess. On the contrary, I shudder at the thought of "Top Ten People's Soldiers"! On the ruins of Lutan, it is impossible to establish a state machine that conforms to the people's hearts, but it has brought chaos to warlords and autonomous troops. Disasters are frequent, and there is little peace. With such a sharp contrast, people naturally have a good impression on Lu Rongting. After his death, his body was transported to Nanning and stopped at Liugong Temple under Zhenning Fort, which lasted for one month and was transported back to Wuming. Coffins come and go, and ordinary people automatically hold road sacrifices. Every day, people go to Liugong Temple to pay their respects, as well as those from other provinces, Vietnam, Hong Kong and Macao. The people responded with Lu Rongting's honor and disgrace, which was the same as people's mourning when Feng Zicai, the winner of the Sino-French campaign, died in Nanning.
Have no inheritance
Promoting to a higher position and getting rich, asking for money and women are common problems of warlords. If Lu Rongting, like the Indian Mahatma Gandhi, only has a scarf worth 80 cents after his death, he is not a warlord, but a "Guangxi Mahatma". Among the warlords in Lu Rongting's time, there was a fact that after liberation, a committee was set up to clean up the property of Zhang, the leader of Fengfeng warlord, which showed that there were so many properties. Feng, the leader of the direct warlord, left more than 23 million yuan after his death. Before his death, Tang had a deposit of17.5 million yen in the bank of Taiwan, and Cao Haohua13.56 million yuan bribed the president. I don't know how many concubines and possessions Zhang Zongchang had in his life. However, the funeral expenses after Lu Rongting's death all depend on the house in Sparrow Lane in Nanning and the gift from Li Zongren of a certain department in Guangxi. He can also refrain from sucking people's oil, and he is innocent.
