The snow in the fourth winter of Shenwu seems to be particularly heavy. During the days of Atlantic Christmas, heavy snow like goose feathers fell day by day. The ground, roof, and places where you can live, all have thick snow accumulated. So, not only does it require cleaning the ground, but also the roofs, otherwise some houses that are disrepaired in the year will be crushed by snow.

In a teacher's apartment at Army University, Jiang Baili was carefully looking at the map of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces, constantly calculating something on the straw paper. But no matter how he calculated it, he shook his head hard in the end, crossed out all the things written on the straw paper, tearing it apart, and then rewritten it again. If he didn't know how many times he repeated it, he finally threw the straw paper and slapped it at that position in Yunnan, which was very painful. After a long time, he calmed down and began to stare at Europe, which had been fighting for a long time. A hazy idea suddenly popped out of his mind. Without thinking about it, he put on a sheepskin coat and hurried out.

When he met, he often met the mutton hotpot restaurant in Donglaishun. Cai E arrived soon after he waited. After the two met, they stepped back from others. Jiang Baili immediately said: "Whether things are successful or not depends on Germany and France."

This is to talk about Yunnan. I don’t expect that Chiang Baili involved Germany and France. Cai E coughed a few times and said, “What does it have to do with Germany? Myanmar is the place of the United Kingdom. If you want to say it…hehe…it has to do with the United Kingdom.”

"It has a relationship with Britain, but it has a closer relationship with Germany. France is Germany's mortal enemy, so the most important thing is the relationship between Germany and France." Jiang Baili said, "In a remote place in Yunnan, the economy is backward. Although there is a machinery factory in Kunming, it can only be repaired easily. It cannot be used as a supplement to military industry. If you want to gain a foothold in Yunnan, you must have external forces to support each other.

Although the Sun Wen Revolutionary Party has something to do with Russia, it is only in the northwest. No matter how many rubles there are, it cannot be spent in the southwest. Today's government supports allies on land and allies at sea. Yang Jingcheng doesn't want to do anything else, but wants to do arms business and make a fortune. Germany and Austria have been protesting. If we can take advantage of these contradictions, it will not be difficult to get support from France and Germany. Therefore, we will use Yunnan as a base to launch a battle to protect the law."

"Brother Baili, Yang Jingcheng is now pleading with both sides of the European War, but now, in one or two years, the European War will eventually have a result. At that time, he will definitely choose the defeated side to surrender, and maybe he will send troops to the European War to assist the war..." Cai E coughed, and he couldn't say a word.

"What? Send troops to the European War to help the war?" Jiang Baili was shocked. "White people fight each other, why should we join in the fun?" He thought about it again, "With the tragic European War, is it necessary to kill those non-Revival direct troops?"

"Does it really mean to send troops to Europe? I can only guess from the order sent by the General Staff to the Reserve Bureau. Even if I don't go to Europe, there will be a big war to fight after the next year." Cai E said. "Although this time the land reform has eliminated many non-Restoration Army's direct military officers, this is far from enough. At least most of the 11th Army are directed by Beiyang, and under external oppression, the brotherly feelings of Beiyang officers and soldiers are deeply rooted in the Beiyang officers and soldiers. It is not easy to impress the remarks of the Restoration Society."

"But if people are transferred from the 11th Army to Europe, the Fuxing Army will draw more people..." Jiang Baili questioned.

"This is just a low exchange ratio. If two or three Fuxing Army soldiers are replaced by one Beiyang soldier, they can be exchanged for each Beiyang soldier. Don't you think about how many people in Beiyang are there? The Fuxing Army has sent 100,000 and 200,000 troops, and the entire 11th Army is not enough to fill it in. This way, it not only eliminates the non-direct lineage, but also earns face and benefits for the government of the dynasty, and is praised by the gentry and people in China. Why not do it?" Cai E laughed and said, "Many times, killing people does not have to be done with a knife."

"If this is the case, not only the 11th Army is going to go, but also the 19th Town of the New Army, the 9th Town, and the New Army Town where Wu Luzhen revolted," Jiang Baili immediately concreted the matter and frowned even tighter.

"So I said, ahem..., things can no longer be waited. If there is no business next year, there will be no chance of doing things." Cai E said, "The teacher is now in prison, and only by robbing the prison can he be rescued. I have discussed with the revolutionary party. They are responsible for saving people, and we are responsible for promoting righteousness in Yunnan. Taking advantage of France's declaration of war and our country does not declare war on it, we will transport arms and ammunition from Hanoi, Vietnam to Kunming. Now the land reform is underway, and the divisions of the Revival Army are scattered. If there is a large army in Yunnan and the support of gentry from all over the country, then there should be a hope of success."

Cai E's plan was obviously more complete than he thought. Jiang Baili looked up at Cai E who was still coughing, and saw a trace of sickness and flushing on his pale face, but his eyes were firm. He said immediately: "Songpo, the plan is good, but how can we leave here? If the people in the East Factory are intentional or unintentional, they are staring at us more and more closely; and your illness..."

"One of us can only go." Cai E said: "I'll go this time. You stay in the capital to find out the news. It doesn't matter if my illness is not important. Yang Jingcheng ignores the constitution and seizes people's wealth. Once this move begins, all kinds of evil deeds will only become more and more serious in the future, and eventually form a dictatorship of the Revival Society and a while later. This is absolutely impossible! Although the Kuomintang in the early Song Dynasty, at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, shouted a different slogan from the Revival Society, what's the use? The Farmers' Association is a puppet manipulated by the Revival Society. After this forced land reform, those fools who have benefited will obey the revival. If we want to improve politically, it will probably take decades later, so we have to make righteous decisions. It's still Yang Jingcheng said before, and the regime is out of the gun..."

Cai E said this so rarely without coughing. Jiang Baili, who knew that he had decided, was not good to persuade him again. After a long silent period, he asked, "When will you leave?"

"It's probably in these few days." Cai E said. He only thought about the chess piece that had been arranged long ago.

As the end of the year approaches, the eight major hutongs at the entrance of Xizhu City were even more lively. The court originally had to issue a month of grace pay every December, but this year, because the Westerners fought, the official business was extremely hot. The grace pay at the end of the year was almost twice as high as in previous years, which made the civil and military officials very happy. This new dynasty is different from the old dynasty. Officials banned drugs and gambling, and they were not allowed to prostitution. It is said that this was promoted from the Regulations on the Revival of the Officers and Soldiers. It means that since soldiers have special comfort agencies, why can't civil officials go to brothels? In the end, the Civil Service Management Regulations did not restrict the officials **, leaving only a blank line.

At the end of the year, the eight hutongs are doing better. The most famous alley in Shaanxi alley is even more lively. Every day when the sky darkens, countless red lanterns outside Yunjiban illuminate the snow-covered alleys outside the house, which have been swept away alleys. The lingering music and music flow out of the house with the fragrance of rouge. The rosy laughter and the customers, the sound of drums playing in the squad, and the shouts of greeting guests. The whole Yunjiban seems to be a fairyland on earth. As long as the mortals come in and enjoy a day, they will completely forget the sorrows on earth.

Cai E came here after get off work this day. He is now a "celebrity" who wrote a divorce letter a few days ago and gave the two wives a break. The female leaders in Beijing were scolded, but this was a family matter after all, and both parties voluntarily divorced, and others could do nothing about it. The carriage went along the winding alleyway and arrived at the door of Yunjiban. When the adjutant He Pengxiang got out of the car and opened the door to help Cai E get out of the car, he couldn't help but reach out and grab his hand tightly, his eyes full of reluctance.

"It's okay, it's okay." Cai E smiled. At the same time, he accidentally glanced at a carriage following the carriage, shook He Pengxiang's hand hard and whispered: "Take care, see you in Yunnan!"

"Okay! See you in Yunnan." He Pengxiang also knew that there was a carriage behind him, and this place was not a place to stay for a long time. He held Cai E's hand and grabbed it tightly, then suddenly let go, reluctantly getting on the carriage, and went back without looking back.

Cai E did not watch the carriage leave. He turned around and entered Yunjiban in the warm greeting, passing through the courtyard full of red lanterns. He walked into the reception hall full of tickets, and followed the yell of Gui Gong outside the door. Boss Hu, who was sitting in the hall, greeted him with a smile on his face, "Oh..., General Cai is here, hurry! Quick! Please go to the Fengxian room."

Boss Hu was born in an opera troupe and was known as the "vix spirit". Although she was forty years old, she still had charm and beautiful makeup. Although she had only been in Beijing for a few years, her skills in observing her expressions and beating her horses were first-class. She knew about Cai E's divorce from his wife some time ago. She thought Cai E would spend a lot of money to redeem Xiao Fengxian, but she didn't expect that there was no movement in the past few days.

Cai E looked at Boss Hu's smiling face and smiled naturally. He reached out and handed over a stack of silver dollar coupons and said, "Thank you for your hard work, mom."

"Prince..." The woman in her forties laughed like a woman in her twenties. Although her posture was similar, her tone was harsh. Boss Hu snatched the money and then urged the squad to flip the cards and roar it. The squad shouted, "Little Fengxian picked up the customer!"

In the wing room north of Yunjiban, Xiao Fengxian was standing by the window, and she didn't hear the shouts of the squad. She just waited for a girl outside the door to shout "Fengjie pick up the customer", and then she came back to her senses in a daze. At this time, Cai E had already entered the room, turned the ancient screen at the door, and stood in front of Xiao Fengxian. The lung disease that had not been cured for a long time made the man's face extremely pale and weak, but his eyes were clear, and his face looked even more angular because of his thinness. He was smiling at Xiao Fengxian, warm and affectionate.

"Are you leaving?" Xiao Fengxian asked subconsciously, and she didn't know why she said this as soon as she spoke.

Without any concealment, Cai E nodded while coughing. He took off his coat, then walked towards the woman deliberately and said in a low voice, "It's time to leave, otherwise everything will be too late."

"But I don't want you to leave..." This sentence rolled repeatedly in Xiao Fengxian's heart, but in the end she didn't say it. She just stroked his face with her hand and said, "What should I do if you have any illness? Is anyone taking care of you?"

"I won't talk about this." Cai E himself didn't want to think about his illness too much. He just smiled, "I will only talk about the wind and the moon today, not the smile... cough cough..."

"Is the revolution really that important?" Seeing Cai E coughing again, Xiao Fengxian grabbed his clothes and asked in confusion. In addition, she seemed to her that every revolution was an incredible turmoil for her.

Ten years ago, the Revival Society was revolutionized in Hangzhou. Her father was ill and was scared to death because she was a bannerman. She was born in a side house and was abused by a big wife. Later, her mother died of illness, so she followed her nurse to Shanghai. At that time, she had no choice but to be entrusted by Boss Hu to learn opera. This life was stable. Unexpectedly, the year of Xinhai was a revolution again, so Boss Hu had to take her out of Nanjing, return to Shanghai, and finally to the capital. Both revolutions made her suffer from displacedness. Now she has a revolution again, and she is worried that the man in front of her will never come back.

"Where there is injustice, there is revolution." Cai E hugged a woman who did not understand politics and felt very pity. "Before the Xinhai period, under the sacrifice of countless people with lofty ideals, the Qing emperor was finally overthrown. He did not want to overthrow an emperor, and some people established another emperor again. They not only established an emperor, but also did not adhere to the original constitution, and wanted to seize people's wealth and frame loyal and kindness. If this continues, the country will still be like the same as before. Therefore, no matter whether it is success or failure, we must launch a revolution. Only revolution can awaken the world to not fall deeper and deeper in the mud pond..."

"But didn't the emperor say that if there was one person in the world who could not wear warm clothes, eat enough, or read, he would not ascend to the throne as emperor?" Xiao Fengxian knew to read and read newspapers. She could understand the Chinese political system better than ordinary people. After hearing the reasons for Cai E's revolution, she looked at the man in confusion, fearing that he was wrong.

"Haha..." Cai E looked at Xiao Fengxian's serious look and wanted to laugh. He said: "Many times the emperor is just a representative. He ascended the throne or not, but was actually the emperor; and sometimes, the emperor would not be called the emperor directly, but would become other names, such as the prime minister, such as the chairman. Those who call for long live the prime minister and long live the chairman are actually the same as calling for long live the emperor. Although King Min did not ascend the throne, he had long been the emperor in the hearts of the people. However, his emperor's rights are not in his own hands, but in the hands of the Revival Society. Although the prime minister does not have the name of the emperor, he has the power of the emperor.

More than ten years ago, what we opposed was the power of the emperor. Anyone who possessed the power of the emperor was the object of our opposition and the object of revolution. Now that revival will control the power of the emperor and practice the reality, we must promote revolution again and drive them out of power. Only in this way can this country and this nation have hope... Cough cough..."
