Yuan Shikai did not refuse the request of the East China Government to send an observation team and build a front-line airport. Not only did he agree in full, but he also suggested that the military observation team be changed to a military advisory observation team as Yuan Jun's military advisor. When it comes to building the airport, Yuan Shikai only asked the East China Government to send workers to the construction and be responsible for management, because now Yuan Shikai is short of staff and cannot draw out everyone, so he can only provide foundations. First, Yuan Shikai really has something to ask for, and second, Yuan Shikai has decided to submit to the East China Government, and of course he has to cooperate with the resolution of the East China Government. Moreover, the intention of the East China Government to build an airport at the frontier of Hunan is obvious, which also proves that Xu Shichang, Yang Du and others' previous judgments that the East China Government does have the intention of advancing Jiangnan.

After receiving Yuan Shikai's reply, the East China Government was also a little surprised because Yuan Shikai was really too cooperative, and the military consultant was qualified to participate in the formulation and command of Yuan's military's combat plan; and the construction of the airport requires the East China Government to send workers to the construction and be responsible for the management, which means that Yuan Shikai ignored it at all, and the East China Government took the initiative, which was almost completely unprepared for the East China Government.

The East China Government also held a discussion, but did not think that Yuan Shikai had the intention to surrender to the East China Government, but he was indeed showing kindness to the East China Government. Therefore, there was still a high chance of persuading Yuan Shikai to give up his force and surrender to the East China Government. Therefore, it was possible to send a military advisory group to Yuan's army, and during the war, they could also send some signals to Yuan Shikai and test Yuan Shikai's attitude.

Of course, since he is an advisor, he is indispensable to provide some military guidance to Yuan Jun, otherwise he would be considered a consultant! But at that point of guidance to Yuan Jun, those who should be taught and those who should not be taught still need to be considered seriously. However, the weapons and ammunition that Yuan Shikai asked to buy can be approved.

In addition, the overseas competitions before the Olympics have also been settled. First of all, Germany is very interested in the game requests made by the East China Government. Not only did it invite the football team and track and field team of the East China Government to visit Germany, but it also planned to invite Italy, Austro-Hungarian Empire to hold the four-country football match and the four-country track and field matches, and it also ensured that the football team of the East China Government and the local team of Germany played 4-5 games.

On the one hand, this is because Germany, Italy, and Austro-Hungary are both participating countries in the Stockholm Olympics and attach great importance to the Olympics. The Greek civilization of Bishop has a considerable influence on the entire Europe. Therefore, before the Olympics, an international competition will be held, which will also help these countries prepare to participate in the Olympics. On the other hand, although the East China government has rejected several requests for alliances, Germany has not given up its intention to form an alliance with the East China government. It just decided to change its methods, strengthen cultural exchanges between the two sides, promote understanding and favorable feelings among the two sides, and thus affect the government decisions of both sides, of course, mainly the decisions of the East China government. The competition requirements put forward by the East China government are exactly the same as Germany's wishes, so Germany is very eager to welcome the East China government to Germany to participate.

In addition, the International Olympic Committee also helped the East China government contact several countries, mainly the United States was willing to invite the East China government's swimming team and gymnastics team to participate in the competition, while Sweden invited the East China government's shooting, wrestling, and tennis competition.

The Olympic Committee of the East China Government is also very happy. In this way, the competitions participating in the Olympic Games are basically guaranteed, and the Executive Yuan is also very supportive of this and specially approved the experience of participating in the competition abroad. Therefore, each sports team also organized personnel to purchase tickets and prepare to compete abroad.

There are fixed flights between the East China Government and the United States. The East China Government has 25,000-ton wheels to the United States regularly, so the swimming team and gymnastics team can take a boat to the United States to participate in the competition. When it comes to Germany, Sweden is basically the same line, and the number of people is large, with more than 100 people. There are also students studying in Germany who have to set off. So the East China Government decided to charter a boat to Germany and specifically avoid a 30*40-meter sports field in the cabin for athletes to train during the sailing to ensure competitive state. All personnel are ashore in Germany, and the football team and track and field team stay in Germany to participate in the competition, while shooting, wrestling, and tennis athletes take trains from Germany to Sweden.

This arrangement is also a preparation for the Olympic Games after one year, because the sailing time from China to Sweden is about 8 weeks. During these 8 weeks, not only should the athletes be rested, but also the necessary training time on the boat to maintain their sports condition. In addition, you must arrive at the competition city at least one week in advance so that you can have enough time to recover fatigue during the journey and ensure that athletes can perform at their normal level in the competition.

Liu Changchun, the first person in the Chinese Olympic Games in the old time and space, consumed too much on the way. After arriving in the competition city of Los Angeles, USA, the Olympic Games began after only one day of rest. Therefore, in the official competition, Liu Changchun failed to perform at his normal level. The 100-meter and 200-meter sprint competitions he participated in were the last place in the group and failed to advance.

After the team of the competition set off, the Executive Yuan also formally determined that it agreed to send a military advisory group to Yuan Jun. The principle of the advisor was to prevent Yuan Jun from defeating. As for whether Yuan Jun could break through the Deyou Jun's defense line, it depends on Yuan Jun's own ability.

The candidates of the military advisory group cannot be casual. After all, the advisory group has a higher level than the observation group because it is necessary to communicate with the commanders of the Yuan army frequently. The commanders of the Yuan army are Yuan Shikai himself. According to the principle of reciprocity, the commanders of the field army are somewhat insufficient. Now there are 18 field troops in the five major military regions of the East China Government, and the commanders are all at the level of major generals. According to Yuan Shikai's official position, he is a first-rank official, and he should be equal to Yuan Shikai. Although the power of the East China Government is far greater than that of Yuan Shikai, he should not be too despised. At least he should be led by a lieutenant general.

In addition, according to the organization of the People's Army, the total strength of a field army is about 50,000, and this Southern War was at least 200,000 in battle, so the commander of the field army was also sure that some of the weight was not enough.

At first, the Military Commission tended to let Luo Yue lead the regiment to Hunan. Although Luo Yue was the commander of the Marine Corps, the combat range of the Marine Corps was not limited to landing operations. When necessary, it would also go deep into inland operations to have a certain overlap with the army. In the Far East War, after the Marine Corps landed in Japan, it fought side by side with the Army on the Japanese mainland. In addition, the Marine Corps' army size exceeded 100,000, and the level was the same as the commander of the military region. Luo Yue's rank was also a lieutenant general, so it was appropriate to be led by Luo Yue.

At the same time, this time I went to Hunan, not only to be a military adviser, but also to test Yuan Shikai's attitude. If necessary, I can also put some pressure on Yuan Shikai to force Yuan Shikai to rely on the East China government. Luo Yue is also competent in this regard.

However, now Luo Yue’s family has something to do. It turns out that Zhou Weiying is pregnant with her second child. In fact, during the medical conference, Zhou Weiying was diagnosed with pregnancy. She was just pregnant and had little impact. Zhou Weiying was the chairman of the conference. Once she withdrew, the impact was very great. Therefore, Zhou Weiying insisted on finishing the medical conference and then took a vacation to raise her baby at home.

Although Zhou Weiying is pregnant, she is not old, only 31 years old, not an elderly pregnant woman. In addition, she has good physical fitness and can work for another 4 or 5 months before resting. However, Zhou Weiying just returned from the Northeast to fight the epidemic and was responsible for the medical conference. She did not take over the People's Army General Hospital. Now that she is pregnant, it is even more unlikely to take over again, because even if she takes over, she will have to hand over again in a few months. It would be better to completely give up the position of director of the People's Army General Hospital and take care of the baby at home.

In fact, even if Zhou Weiying returns to the position of director of the People's Army General Hospital, she will not work too long. She will probably be promoted in half a year because she participated in and led the epidemic prevention work in Northeast China. However, those who have made great contributions will definitely be promoted to the Ministry of Health. However, it will take a certain amount of time to adjust the personnel of the Ministry of Health. Therefore, it is better to take leave and rest at home and wait until the childbirth is given. The work position of the Ministry of Health will also be adjusted to Zhou Weiying. Then come out to work and do it in one step.

Because Zhou Weiying was pregnant, Luo Yue naturally did not want to go on a long-term business trip, but hoped to stay in Qingdao and accompany his wife as much as possible, and it would be better to wait until his second child was born. After all, when Luo Yuandong was born, Luo Yue was commanding the battle in Japan, and it was quite regretful that he did not stay by Zhou Weiying's side.

The Military Commission and the Executive Yuan were able to understand Luo Yue’s difficulties, and it was not important to be a military adviser to Yuan Shikai, so Luo Yue was out of the list.

It was finally confirmed that the military advisory group was led by Li Wenfei, chief of staff of the Southeast Military Region. The main veterans were Qian Guoyu, chief of staff of the 1st Field Army of the Southeast Military Region, Bai Jianshi, deputy commander of the 9th Field Army, Yu Tao, commander of the 2nd Division of the 1st Field Army, and Han Qizhi, chief of staff of the 15th Division of the 9th Field Army. There were also 4 staff officers and 4 brigade-level local naturalized officers, plus a guard platoon accompanied, a total of 40 people.

At the same time, the East China Government will also send a 300-person engineering team to build an airport in Changde. The army guarding the airport plans to send a company to station at the airport. In addition, the East China Government also plans to set up the airport into an intelligence center. Changde is located on the west bank of Dongting Lake, so that the building materials, equipment, aircraft, etc. required to build the airport can be transported by water through water. It is even very convenient to use the airport as a frontier base or combat command center in the future.
