"The success of the revolution is by no means accidental, it involves not only sacrifice, but also luck. If you don't have luck, then you can only try and make mistakes again and again, and then see if God helps you. Even if you have worked hard and died all your life to conquer the world and establish a dynasty, what is the result? For the people, it is peace; For the literati, it was a prosperous age; For soldiers, it is disarmament; But for the heroes......"

In the solemn General Staff Chamber, the meeting, which had been delayed for several months, finally convened. Yang Rui stood on the podium with great seriousness and looked at the generals below. He deliberately made a long pause when he spoke of the heroes, and then glanced at everyone sitting under the podium. Some think, some are uneasy, some are unmoved...... After taking in everyone's performances, he said loudly: "To the heroes, that is to kill out of nothing!"

If you are familiar with history books, then you will naturally know the words of birds hiding their bows and rabbits dying and dogs cooking. This has been the case for more than 2,000 years.

Why? Song Taizu said that on the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly, this is one; Second, kill us to save money. The reward for beating the world is naturally expensive, and the court can't afford to pay it, so it's still the cheapest to kill. Wait for a few decades to rehabilitate Zhaoxue, and then give our son an idle official, then it must be grateful to Dade. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Rui paused again, and then looked at the people listening carefully, "Heroes, although the revolution was successful, I feel that the danger is greater than before. Fortunately, the current world is not the same as before, there are still foreigners in the world, and there are so many countries, and everyone seems to be civilized in front of everyone, but even so, the previous inertia still exists. What was the previous inertia? Rabbit dead dog cooking! What else? Either Caesar or nothing!

For now. Partitioning may be the only way to save our lives. I've objected to this before, but after so much has happened. I think that's the only way we can do it. However, I have heard that some of you are still opposed to separation. It is said that meritorious service is a blessing, and the revolution is not for being an official. My first reaction was: you should be discharged from the army and go home to farm. Because you are not one of us, so why should you stay in the army? ”

Yang Rui's 'first reaction' made the generals in the audience who were originally motionless tremble a little - not everyone wants to divide the seal, even now, there are still dozens of people who have not been sealed. When Yang Rui said this, he looked at General Lei Yizhen who was sitting at the front, he was the highest-ranking and most prestigious among the generals.

Seeing Yang Rui looking at him, Lei Yizhen, whose face was suddenly sweating, stood up. He said, "Mr. Report, there is something unknown about the student!" ”

"Say!" Yang Rui had long hoped that he would take the initiative to stand up, and everyone was here at this time, which was just a good time to change his mind.

"Mr. taught us before that the revolution is for the 40,000 people and for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, but it can be divided into ......" Lei Yizhen glanced at Yang Rui and said, "...... But just for their own family, students and many comrades find it difficult to accept the fief! ”

"Who else can't take it?" Yang Rui waited for Lei Yizhen to finish speaking before asking. As soon as he spoke, a dozen more stood up. Then there was a piece, and the thirty-seven people present who had not yet been sealed all stood up.

Looking at this group of generals standing straight, Yang Rui suddenly smiled bitterly, and he said: "It is difficult to convince some unreasonable people. And it's a lot of energy. I was tired and didn't want to say more, but this time I had to. I'll just say it briefly.

Remember, you will enslave the people. In addition to the aggressors, there is also the government that we have painstakingly built up - an increasingly large governing body. We are not saying that the establishment of this country is complete and that it can be disarmed and repatriated. We also have to guard her, not only for this country, but for the whole nation. If anyone wants to regain the throne and represent 50,000,000 people, then immediately defeat him!

In the West, perhaps the law can put power in a cage more than guns, but in the East, only the nobles with guns in their hands and land under their feet can put an end to tyrants, avoid tyranny, and put power in a cage! The first purpose of the division is to make you all true protectors!

Some people are worried that after the partition, the decree will not be smooth, and the court will not be able to do things; Some people also say that dividing the feudal is really a separation, and the country will not be a country in the future, both of which are reasonable.

In the former, the purpose of our division is to make the government decree unsmooth, that is, the court cannot do things. Because there are many things that are not wanted to be done, and it cannot be done well. In addition to wartime and war preparedness, the central government still has peace of mind to provide for the elderly, we don't want so many performance projects, let alone pay so many taxes, so that those officials can enrich their own pockets.

The latter, this is the poison of Qin Zheng's 2,000 years! Who doesn't want to win the world if they have a few soldiers in their hands? The only way to deal with this residual poison is to check and balance, and among the more than 180 people sitting here today, one person will kill one person, ten people will kill ten people, and one hundred people will kill one hundred people; If all of you are like-minded and want to fight the world, then you should first think that there is only one dragon chair in the Forbidden City, and who will sit on it after more than 100 of you?

And don't forget that once we fail, each of us, the founding heroes, will be the target of everyone. Once you are caught by someone - even if you rebel and surrender, it will not be a good death; And it's not that you alone can't die a good death, if there is one, there will be two, and if there are two, there will naturally be three, and if one fief is taken over by the central government, then it is only a matter of time before the remaining 180 or so fiefs are collected.

All of you have been knighted, and you are all nobles. Do you know what the nobles live in? It's virtue! It's fame! Even if you are born a bad person, you have to pretend to be a good person who makes people unable to get the handle, otherwise your life will be in danger and your family business will be lost. Have you ever seen a rich man in the countryside? Full of benevolence and morality, yes, that's what it looks like. This is still no money, and his family property is at most 1,800 taels, which is already so hypocritical. What about us? The smallest fief also has a county, such a big place, and it will be passed down to future generations, if you don't pretend to be a saint, I'm really sorry for that land. ”

Yang Rui's speech stopped here, and he felt that his breath was not going well today. After taking a breath, he said to Lei Yizhen and the others who were standing, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Most of them were persuaded by Yang Rui, but Lei Yizhen still said, "Sir." Is there no other way? ”

"With the habits of officialdom and the inertia of history, this is the best way." Yang Rui looked at Lei Yizhen Dao. Seeing that he still insisted. Then he said: "You better think clearly about whether this world should be public or private." ”

"Sir. Shouldn't the world be public? Everyone else sat down, but Lei Yizhen still stood. Yang Rui's temper is getting worse and worse, if it wasn't Lei Yizhen standing at this time, he would have let him get out a long time ago.

Suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, Yang Rui said categorically: "Let's not talk about whose public the world is, in my opinion, there are only two kinds of people who say that the world is public." One is Sun Wen's kind of single gambler, he has nothing, of course, he has to think about the world every day. What does he eat if the world is not for the public? Who gave him money to rebel, and who gave him his life?

The second is a guy like you Lei Yizhen! You are also from Nanyang College. is still a showman, why don't you know the truth of 'taking its gold, it will not harm your deeds, and if you don't take its gold, you will not redeem people'? You are morally noble, you are upright, you are successful, that's just you, just you! There's no such thing as a free lunch! Those who are meritorious will be rewarded! Do you want the revival army to recruit soldiers in the future war, and pay them before the war? ”

Yang Rui's last sentence shouted very loudly, and Lei Yizhen's face turned white and red, and he immediately stood up and said: "No, sir!" ”

"Then sit down!" Yang Rui glared at him and said loudly, saliva about to spray on his collar.

"Yes. Mr! Lei Yizhen immediately sat down when he heard the sound, and the venue finally returned to level.

After taking two breaths fiercely, Yang Rui glared at everyone and said again: "In the past, everyone united to build a country regardless of their lives, but now it is for you to unite again." For generations, they have tied their heads to the waistband of their trousers to protect the country, and whoever doesn't want to do it can get out! ”

Yang Rui scolded the audience and looked around the audience, seeing that everyone's eyes were avoiding him. He continued: "The Zhou Dynasty divided the seventy-one vassal states, and when the Qin State was left in the end. You know very well what will happen in the next two thousand years; In contrast to Europe, the barbarians brought down the unified Roman Empire. After that, it returned to the feudal pattern; After that, there was Britain, the European-stirring stick, France was strong, Germany was strong, Germany was strong, Germany was strong, and Europe never submitted to the tyranny of Qin Shi Huang, so that there was today's splendid Western civilization.

What will be revived by revival, revival is not Tang and Song, not Qin and Han, but pre-Qin! Yes, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were constantly fighting and corpses were everywhere, but what was the result, that is, the progress of science and technology and military affairs! You all know about the Industrial Revolution, you all know that Watt invented the steam engine, but do you know how the steam engine became the steam engine?

No John. Wilkinson's boring machine, there will be a steam engine with watts?! How did the boring machine come about, it was because of the continuous wars in Europe and the corpses everywhere, and then improved from generation to generation! And John. Who is Wilkins? Under feudalism, this person has been a gunsmith for generations! You know? That's why the Industrial Revolution was born in Europe and not in China.

We couldn't have invented a boring machine, because we only fought when the dynasty fell. At this time, even if there is an invention, it will be destroyed in the war; It is even more impossible for us to have gunsmiths who have been ancestors for generations, whose family lineage is longer than the dynasty, and our gunsmiths only work as craftsmen when they are down, and once they have a way, they will 100% change their careers to become officials.

I solemnly tell you again that the previous mission of the Revival Society has been completed, and its next task is to simulate and maintain the situation of the pre-Qin and early Zhou dynasties under the signboard of Great China, so as to rebirth the dead civilization. Once this step is completed, the Revival mission is over. This task is not only more difficult than before, but also unpredictable. Because this world is a Warring States era, others are fighting with all their strength, but we are letting go of Nanshan; And it's up to us not just to do it, but also for our children and grandchildren.

Thankfully, we have found a solution to both threats, and we just need to follow through on them. During this period, you must not be frightened by your mind, thinking about what is the public in the world and what kind of woman's kindness you do. Any one of you would be ruining the whole mission. Distressed family crying, think about crying all the way; If you are distressed and cry for a while, think about crying for a lifetime; If you feel sorry for the three generations of your grandchildren crying, then think about your children and grandchildren crying together.

Don't be naïve to think that the reproduction of the nation does not need a price, that you can take shortcuts and suffer less, but you must know that human life is limited, and even when you die, you can't tell what is right and what is wrong. You can only open the history books, remove the cover of the eunuch literati, and look at the thousand-year-old history. You know that this is going to be the way it is, and that's going to be the way it is. But remember that there are countless unknown possibilities in history. All you can say is that the chances of success are higher with this method. There is a high probability that that approach will fail.

In short, it all adds up to one sentence: there is no such thing as a free lunch, and everything has a price. Those things that are fanciful are often endless. That is to say, I, Mr. Taiyan, Mr. Xiao Xu, Mr. Xian Feng, Mr. Xuanqing and others cannot ensure that it will be right to return to the early pre-Qin and early Zhou periods, but we really can't find any better way to revive Chinese civilization, so we can only do this.

If you don't understand and don't want to go on, you can quit, and no one will blame you; If you don't understand, but you want to go down and see. Then don't be smart, and don't think that this is a beautiful thing, which will not only harm you, but also everyone; Finally, there are people who understand and want to go on, you are very welcome, we need such people. ”

The speech that was not too long but exhausted was basically over, and looking at the contemplative generals, Yang Rui finally said: "You will have half a year to think about it." Half a year later, a fiefdom convention will come out, and those who agree to go down will sign the convention and spill blood for the alliance. If you don't agree, you can ask the Inspectorate to take back your fiefdom, and no one will blame you. ”

After the last sentence was finished, Yang Rui left, leaving only a room full of generals and school officials to sit on the spot, waiting for the official on duty to announce the dismissal of the meeting. One by one, the generals stood up and left. Sitting in the front row was an old student, and unlike Lei Yizhen with a straight face, the corners of General Lin Wenqian's mouth were curved. Although what Yang Rui said today is high-sounding and reasonable. But he knew that it was the gentlemen in charge who had finally agreed on the line, and that it was a compromise made by the gentlemen - that there was no more turmoil at last. He was very happy.

Politics is not something that Lin Wenqian is interested in, he only has one problem. is what Yang Rui mentioned just now - 'This world is a Warring States era, and everyone else is fighting with all their might, but we are letting Nanshan go,...... Thankfully, we have found solutions to both threats.'"

At present, only 250,000 people have been dismantled and dismantled by the army of the Renaissance Army, and although nine armored divisions have been built, only five of them are fully staffed, and the remaining four are subject to the meaning of the General Staff Headquarters. In addition to the 250,000 troops, the peasants and soldiers were now collecting their weapons, and the tax police were no longer expanding, and I heard that they would also be gradually abolished. The army is like this, and the navy is said to have just canceled orders for several 10,000-ton cruisers last month, and the only one that has not moved is the air force. With such troops, what should we do if we really want to fight with the United States and Russia? What's the big deal about the solution?

Lin Wenqian couldn't think about it anymore, how could he guess about Mr.'s mind and ability? He talked to Zhou Sixu and others cordially, talking about the cold weather and food in the capital, and he didn't have any shock because of Yang Rui's speech, he was not a person with many ideas like Lei Yizhen. Following Mr. closely has long been an iron law in the hearts of him and the rest of the people.

Lin Wenqian thought so, but Yang Rui, who was resting from tea, didn't know. He actually didn't care about the choice of the generals, because the division of feuds was a strategy of both public and private, one could enrich all generations, and the other could revive civilization. Of course, this is just propaganda, it is propaganda, it is naturally coaxing, it does not matter what the result will be, the key is to believe it.

However, in terms of Yang Rui's original intention, it is indeed an extremely hard thing to represent the people all the time, and since you want to go to the deputies, you must pay special attention to the influence, not only to be close to the people and love the people, but also to be simple and economical -- old leather shoes, torn clothes, gold and silver cannot be deposited in the bank, and famous watches can only be worn at home, making you look like a thief. But you have to be careful, because if you are not careful, someone will take advantage of your mistake and jump out to compete with you for representation, and he will accuse you of how corrupt you are on behalf of the people, saying how many tonics you have taken before, how many mistresses...... you have taken before, how can you be so at ease as now, everything is under control.

When Yang Rui thought that everything was under control, the hand that didn't serve tea was on Lu Xiaoman's waist - after knowing that this woman was just for his father and was sure that it was not a trap, he finally ate her. Although the woman's appearance does not conform to the aesthetics of later generations, she is always dazzling by her side, and with the title of the four beauties of the Republic of China, he finally couldn't hold back.

"Prime Minister, Director Zhang of the Intelligence Bureau asks to see you." Lu Xiaoman was helping Yang Rui massage, while Li Zilong knocked on the door from the outside and came in. He is Yang Rui's secretary, and he knows everything about the prime minister and Lu Xiaoman, and when he comes in at this time, he keeps his head down, and he doesn't want to or dare to look at the situation in the house.

"What's the matter with him?" Hearing the knock on the door, Lu Xiaoman stood obediently on the side, and Yang Rui's voice became normal.

"Mr. Goering from the German side has arrived." Li Zilong continued to answer with his head down.

"I see, you let them go to Wenyuan Pavilion in an hour." Yang Rui commanded, "The matter here is over, you go out and explain, let the dinner start on time......" Speaking of this, Yang Rui felt that it was inappropriate, there was no need to run to Wenyuan Pavilion to see that Goering, just meet here directly. So he said, "Let them come here." I'll see them when they come. ”

Li Zilong, who got the order, immediately turned around and went out, and when he left, Yang Rui sighed. Seeing him like this, Lu Xiaoman next to him began to help him rub his temples again, and whispered: "This Mr. Goering should be the fast son-in-law of the East Bed, why do you sigh?" ”

"Why don't I sigh?!" Yang Rui closed his eyes and said, "Her father ......is like this, and she is like this, it's really not worry-free!" ”

Yang Rui said this to himself, the briefing on the beer hall riot last month had already been submitted, and Yang Rui didn't expect Rebecca to play such a big role. This is a good thing in the big picture, but not a good thing in terms of personal feelings. And inexplicably, how could Rebecca suddenly marry Goering? Even if Goering risked his life to save her, it didn't have to be like this!

After a few months of getting along, Lu Xiaoman knew that the man he was committed to was as deep as the sea, and he also knew that he would stay quiet when he closed his eyes and was silent. She just kept her hands, and after rubbing them for a while, her hands were suddenly held down by Yang Rui, "What has your father been doing lately?" ”

"I'm ......" Lu Xiaoman was a little uneasy, this was Yang Rui and her...... After that, I asked her about her family for the first time. As smart as she was suddenly a little disappointed, she forced a smile and said: "My father was lucky enough to win the lawsuit and was idle at home..., he... Nor will I do any business......"

Lu Xiaoman guessed what Yang Rui meant, and Yang Rui also noticed her crampedness, so he changed the topic at the moment, and asked with a smile: "Did he ask you, who is the friend who has a relationship with a foreign lawyer?" And what about your marriage? ”

Yang Rui stroked the wound on Lu Xiaoman's wrist as he spoke, feeling that she had cut the knife for herself, and at the same time she was happy that she got rid of that Wang Geng. In the past, when he looked at the love history of the Republic of China, he felt that Lu Xiaoman was really married to the wrong person, and her parents were rural buns, and they didn't know that the Western Military Academy was the most male, like the current King Rama VI of Miluo, who graduated from the British Military Academy, and was used to men naturally not like to engage in women, because there were no descendants, and the throne could only be passed to his younger brother after death.

Lu Xiaoman's first husband Wang Geng, the world said that he didn't understand the amorous and was obsessed with reading, so he handed over his wife to Xu Zhimo to take care of. But in Yang Rui's view, there are only two explanations for this: either this Wang Geng was sodomized by the Yankees at West Point, and over time he only loves men, so he is not interested in his wife and feels guilty; Or, like Pu Yi, he was played by (the eunuch) since he was a little cock, and he had to steal the guards from time to time.

Yang Rui thought about all the things in Lu Xiaoman's history, and his heart was agitated, and he suddenly hugged her to his lap, which made the woman who wanted to answer exclaim in a low voice, and she was afraid: "My lord, this is ...... Here is the General Staff ......"

"What happened to the General Staff?" Yang Rui just suddenly fell in love, and at the same time felt that he was really a beast, and the collision of the two emotions made his face a little distorted. "Are you afraid?" He asked in a low voice.

"Hmm. I ......" Lu Xiaoman's soft body became extremely stiff and trembling slightly, she didn't know how the relationship with Yang Rui had come to this point, as if she was in a dream - Yang Rui, who had just returned from Shandong for a few days, took possession of her in Wenyuan Pavilion, and that time, she shed a lot of blood.

"What are you afraid of! You are my woman, and no one will dare to bully you in this life. Yang Rui stroked the woman's back and comforted her. When the person in his arms breathed a little more normally, there was a knock on the door - his niece-in-law, Luftwaffe Marshal Goering, arrived. (To be continued.) )
