The Yunnan Revolutionary Army captured three provinces in just one week, and the border areas of Chen Bing's provinces were not unsharp, but it can be said that the three provinces that are close to each other are still the three provinces that have the most intuitive feeling about this.

Needless to say, the Gan army under the new governor of Shaanxi, Shengyun, is quite good, and he is loyal to the imperial court, and the subordinates of Zhang Mingqi, the governor of Liangguang, also have a lot of patrol battalions, and there is no need to say much about the ruthlessness of the rebellious party. However, Yu Chengge, who was the governor of Hunan, was different, and now that the Yunnan Revolutionary Party army was pressing, and the whole of Hunan was surrounded by the forces of the Revolutionary Party on three sides, and his own troops were few and far between, a newly organized army was still preparing to rebel a few days ago. These all made Yu Chengge very sad.

Sure enough, on October 21, Hunan revolutionaries Jiao Dafeng, Chen Zuoxin and others launched the Hui Party and the New Army to attack Changsha, and the governor Yu Chengge fled. This uprising, which was also successful, was a whole day ahead of the parallel time and space, and Xiao Mubai, the little butterfly flapping its wings, finally caused the wheel of history to deviate slightly.

The next day, the Shaanxi New Army also successfully launched an uprising, the rebel army was called the Qin Longfu Han Army, and elected Zhang Fenghui, a member of the alliance, as the general commander, and Qian Ding as the deputy commander, and Shaanxi declared independence.

The uprising in the two provinces was no less than a thunderbolt from the blue for the Qing government. Originally, the war in Hubei was enough to affect everyone's minds, but they never thought that in just a few days, Sichuan, Guangxi, and Guizhou would be occupied again, and then Hunan and Shaanxi were recovered almost at the same time, which completely detonated the powder keg. Compared with the horror of the Qing court, it greatly boosted the confidence of the revolutionaries.

At this time, the gentry in all provinces of the country also began to consider their future path, whether to support the imperial court or the revolutionary party, or to maintain the present impartial and neutral attitude.

From the Wuchang Uprising to the present, it has only been about half a month, but the situation in the southern provinces has deteriorated to the point of no return.

Half a month has passed since the Kunming Uprising, and the political power in the entire Yunnan has smoothly transitioned into the hands of the Communist Party, and then a vigorous wave of construction has begun with the investment of a large number of funds, and the whole Yunnan seems to be a big construction site in full swing.

At this time, Cai Ye, accompanied by two entourages, was shuttling through the streets and alleys of Kunming City, witnessing all these almost visible changes in the city, and his heart was full of emotion. Although Cai did not participate in the League, he was also affected by the rising revolutionary situation, and secretly kept in touch with the League from time to time. Although he was influenced by his teacher Liang Qichao, and his political ideas have always been relatively close to the constitutional monarchy, he still sympathized with and assisted the activities of the revolutionary party.

Regarding the Yunnan incident, Cai Ye was also a little caught off guard at the time of the incident, and he seemed very surprised, but he didn't hear any news beforehand. What surprised him even more was that the whole incident was led by his direct boss Xiao Mubai, who belonged to a revolutionary party organization of the Communist Party. Cai Ye didn't know much about the Communist Party that suddenly appeared, but he only occasionally heard rumors about this party, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful.

Although he was detained by Xiao Mubai on the night of the uprising, it only restricted his personal freedom in the next few days, and he did not mean to hurt himself. Since a few days ago, the former governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, Li Jingxi, and other old Manchu bureaucrats were sent out of the country, and the Communist Progressive Party (CCP) has officially released itself. However, because he didn't want to leave like this, he chose to stay, and it was because of this that he was able to shuttle through Kunming City.

He also has some understanding of the current situation in China these days, and he can't imagine that the Qing Dynasty, which seems to be as stable as a rock, has reached the point of falling apart in the midst of changes. Thinking of this, Cai Ye couldn't help but shake his head.

Seeing the young officer walking towards him, Cai Yi couldn't help frowning, these days he already knew something about the new rank system of the Communist Party, and when he saw the three-star bar on the officer's epaulettes, he knew that this was a captain in front of him. Seriously, he was very covetous of this beautiful military uniform.

"Fan Shisheng, the operational staff officer of the General Staff, has met General Cai!" The young officer asked without humility or arrogance after standing up and saluting.

Cai Ye subconsciously replied, but later he was very embarrassed to put down his raised right hand. said: "I don't have a military position now, so you don't have to be so polite." ”

"Don't dare, the name of the general, I have admired it for a long time." Fan Shisheng said sincerely.

"Hehe, don't talk about this, I don't know what you came to me for?" Cai Ye didn't want to be serious with Fan Shisheng on this kind of issue, so he went straight to the point.

"Oh, that's right, I'm on the orders of Chief of General Staff Xiao, and I'm here to invite General Cai."

"Chief of General Staff Xiao?" Cai Ye knew that the chief of the general staff Fan Shisheng was talking about was Xiao Mubai, and these days, he has a slight understanding of the top and bottom of the Communist Party army. He was even more sincerely admired for the four headquarters set up by Xiao Mubai, and the effect shown by this move was obvious.

"Yes, General Cai, Chief of General Staff Xiao originally wanted to come in person, but our army has just recovered the three provinces, and he is busy with official business, so he can't get out, so he had to let me come." Fan Shisheng said embarrassedly, Xu realized that his status did not match Cai Yi.

"Okay, you lead the way, let's go." Listening to Fan Shisheng's explanation, Cai Ye didn't care, and said that he also wanted to meet the legendary Xiao Mubai.

All the way to the General Staff Headquarters in Wuhua Mountain, looking at the heavily guarded and busy young officers coming in and out, Cai Yi's eyes showed a trace of longing, he was eager to join these young officers and do something for his lovely motherland.

"Matsupo!"

Cai Ye, who was concentrating, heard this shout, then he woke up, looked up, but saw that it was Xiao Mubai shouting to himself, but he didn't expect Xiao Mubai to greet him at the door in person.

"Chief of General Staff Xiao!" Walking to Xiao Mubai's side, Cai Ye didn't know what to call it, and hesitated for a while before speaking.

"Hehe, Songpo, call me Zicheng, you won't still complain about me because of what happened a few days ago, right?" Xiao Mubai saw Cai Yi's expression, and he didn't understand that he couldn't wipe his face, so he took the initiative to find a stairway immediately.

"There, the situation is compelling, and I will do the same if I were me." Cai Ye smiled wryly, after a period of understanding, he also sincerely admired Xiao Mubai's personality, and he didn't mind what happened before.

"Please come in, wait for you to be old for a long time."

Several people came to the reception room, and Xiao Mubai was serving tea and water, and he was very attentive.

Cai Ye was very puzzled by Xiao Mubai's behavior, so he took the initiative to speak: "Zicheng, I don't know why you came this time?" ”

"Songpa, I don't know what you think of our Communist Party?" Xiao Mubai is colorful.

"Although I don't know much about your party, through my personal experience and understanding these days, I quite agree with your party's political propositions, and I can also see that a revolutionary organization like the League is not comparable with your party at all." At this time, Cai Ye became more and more confused, although he was puzzled, he still gave a pertinent answer.

"Since that's the case, then I won't beat around the bush, I want to invite Brother Songpa to serve as the commander of the Southwest Military Region, I don't know what Brother Songpa wants?"

"Oh?"

"I know that Brother Songpa's political philosophy is more inclined to a constitutional monarchy, which is incompatible with the ideas of our Communist Party. Although the ideas are different, no matter what, I think Brother Songpa also hopes that our motherland can be prosperous, strong and civilized. It can be said that on this point, we all have something in common. Seeing Cai Ye bowing his head and groaning, Xiao Mubai immediately said: "Now that there is a revolution in China, foreign powers are bound to take advantage of the fire to rob, not long ago there was information about the frequent movements of Britain and France in the border area of Yunnan, and I also sincerely admire Brother Songpo's military talent, so I want to invite Brother Songpo to serve as the commander of the Southwest Military Region." ”

"Okay, since Zicheng said it so clearly, it would be too hypocritical for me not to agree." What answered Xiao Mubai was a pair of eyes that flashed after Cai Ye raised his head.

On this day, the Southwest Military Region, that is, Chengdu, was officially established, and Cai Ye officially assumed the post of commander.
