Yuan Shikai, who became emperor by chance, Duan Qirui, who had a headache and became pale after hearing about the Congress, Li Yuanhong, a loner with no team, Zhang Xun, a bodhisattva-like and organic commander, Cao Kun, the illiterate president who was born to be a leader, Cai E, the sharp-edged "Flying General", who was a "bearded man" in his early years and finally came to power. Zhang Zuolin, the leader, Zhang Xueliang, who will never fight another civil war, Shanxi Yan Xishan, who is good at observing the situation, Feng Yuxiang, the nationally known "rebellious general", Sun Hongyi, an old politician who manipulates everything, Xu Shuzheng, the representative of the old-style officialdom, Liang Qichao, who is unarmed, Zhang Taiyan, the crazy famous master of Chinese studies...
