Chapter 585 Banquet (1)
"Sir Bai is here"
At 7 p.m., at the command of the official, all the officers in the hall stood up and saluted the Chinese general who slowly walked out, including the German officials in the hall. Ambassador Wang Tingen from the Chinese Embassy in Germany was also present with Bai Chongxi.
Bai Chongxi and Wang Tingen smiled and made apologetic gestures, and walked towards the hotel gate together.
As the highest military commander of the military delegation, according to etiquette, Bai Chongxi had to go to the door to welcome guests, and Wang Tingen, as the highest civil servant in China in Germany, naturally had to accompany him. When Bai Chongxi came to the door of the Berlin Hotel, people had already begun to get out of the car and walk towards the door.
"General Bai, it has been four years since I came to Germany. This is the first time I have seen so many compatriots in a foreign country, and have been so grandly welcomed by the Germans. Your army has won the tone for our country." Wang Tingen was obviously in a good mood.
"This is not my credit. The reason why the Germans are so polite to us is because we have 450 million ordinary people and 5 million troops as support behind us, otherwise those people would not look at us with a direct look." Bai Chongxi smiled and shook his head and did not dare to bow.
"But in the final analysis, it is because you soldiers are fighting well." Wang Tingen said with a smile: "If you soldiers didn't fight bloody battles, we wouldn't have the status we are today. You don't know. Now those German guys are becoming more and more polite to me, so I'll give you my blessing."
"Okay, someone is here. Ambassador Wang, you have to be responsible for introducing me."
"No problem." Wang Tingen smiled, "The one who walked in the front was Mr. Lal, the US Ambassador to Germany, followed by him was Colonel Ferrer, and Italy was walking behind them."
While introducing, Wang Tingen welcomed Bai Chongxi. He smiled and gave Ambassador Lar a warm hug, as enthusiastic as a reunion of brothers who had been separated for many years. Seeing Bai Chongxi behind him, he shook his head secretly. It seemed that not everyone could be the ambassador abroad, at least he could not do this superficial skill.
"Mr. Lar, this is General Bai Chongxi, the leader of our delegation, General Bai, this is Mr. Lar, the US Ambassador to Germany, and this is Colonel Ferrer, the military officer of the US Embassy." Wang Tingen introduced to both sides one by one.
"Hello, Ambassador Lar, it's an honor to see you."
"Hello General Bai, I am also honored to see you."
"Hello, General Bai" Colonel Feller stepped forward and "snatched" a standard American military salute.
"Hello, Colonel Ferrer"
Bai Chongxi had all seen the courtesy with them one by one, and people came in later, including the Japanese ambassador to Germany, as promised. At this time, the ambassadors to China from all countries stood at the door and looked at the expressionless Japanese ambassador to Germany, Toshita Fujiyama, who met their mortal enemy, with a joke.
Only 1.60 meters tall, wearing a black suit and a bow tie, and a white scarf on his left chest came to Bai Chongxi and said in Chinese: "Hello General Bai, I have long admired Daming. Today I finally saw you."
"Hello, Ambassador Onomura, I didn't expect you to come here to attend our party in your busy schedule. I was surprised by this." Bai Chongxi nodded and showed a professional smile, but the meaning of his words made people think a lot.
"Where can General Bai travel thousands of miles and come to Germany safely. How can I not come to congratulate you in person?" Onomura's face smiled and fought back.
Watching the two quarrel in Chinese, making the ambassadors of various countries who were around, who wanted to watch the show feel bored. Lar shrugged at Miliusky, the Soviet ambassador to Germany next to him with some boredom, "God testifies, now I regret not choosing Chinese courses in the elective courses in college, so I missed a good show now."
"I believe that if you choose the Chinese course, your current ambassador to China will definitely be you."
Miliusky's smiling expression made Lar feel contemptuous, "You are so proud, wait until the Chinese soldiers and the Germans rushed into Moscow together, let's see what your expression is."
Bai Chongxi and Toshita Fujiyama exchanged a few greetings at the door and saw that the people were almost here, so he called everyone into the hall. Fortunately, the Berlin Hotel is worthy of being the first-class hotel in Germany. Dozens of people suddenly poured into the hall and it still looked very spacious.
Everyone took a glass of wine or drink from the waiter and started to talk in circles, big or small.
Suddenly, Germany rang at the door, "The head of the empire is here"
Everyone who was talking quickly stood up, and soon Hitler walked in with the support of a group of senior German generals.
There were endless German officials who "Hitler" raising their hands in the hall, like the branches of a forest.
Today, Hitler, who made an exception wearing a gray army uniform without a military rank, had a smile on his chest, and his second-level Iron Cross that he almost never left. He came to Bai Chongxi and Wang Tingen and said with a smile: "Welcome, friends from afar."
Bai Chongxi did not dare to neglect and quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, dear Head, I would like to say hello to you on behalf of the President of our country."
"Oh, I have admired your President for a long time. It is worthy of my admiration for him to lead your people and army to defeat the invaders and let the people of your country live a life of free reading again." As soon as Hitler said, the Japanese ambassador Onomura, who was standing not far away, stretched his face, "Don't you say a human word? What does it mean to drive away the invaders? When we occupied the Northeast, you said that congratulations on us for obtaining our own living space, and now you have changed your mouth all at once."
"Baga" The military officer Toshida Fujiyama, who had been following the Onomuma, cursed in a low voice, angrily and angry: "This despicable white-skinned pig dares to insult the warriors of our Great Japanese Empire like this."
"Fujita, shut up," Onomuo turned his head and glared at the unspeakable subordinate and scolded, "If this sentence is heard, even diplomatic immunity cannot protect your life. Have you forgotten how your ex died?"
When his boss reminded him, he thought of his ex who died of an "heart disease" and accidentally died of an "heart disease" on the bench in the park, Toshida Fujiyama couldn't help but chill and shut up obediently.
After Hitler and his group came, the attendant standing at the door immediately closed the door outside and blocked the bitter cold wind outside the door. Under the baking of more than a dozen well-burned fireplaces around, the temperature in the living room immediately became warmer.
Hitler introduced the people around him to Bai Chongxi one by one, "This is our Foreign Minister Ribbintrov, this is Propaganda Minister Goebbels, and this is Marshal Goeblin of the Air Force."
Bai Chongxi once heard Wang Tingen say that the German Air Marshal Gore had never looked down on China, so he couldn't help but pay more attention when he heard the introduction. Gorere was not as fat as he later, and now he looked burly, but he had obviously begun to develop in that direction. Gorerererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererererereresult. When Gorere saw Bai Chongxi observing him, he immediately turned his face away and didn't even look at Bai Chongxi.
Bai Chongxi just smiled slightly and said nothing, but greeted Marshal Feng Brauxichi and others who were standing behind Hitler.
"Crazy" At this time, a burst of applause rang out in the living room. It turned out that Hitler walked up to the high platform and stood in front of the microphone. His move attracted warm applause from German officials.
"Dear friends and brave German soldiers, today we will gather here to welcome the delegation from China from faraway Asia. Let us give them warm applause."
"Waolala" Hitler's words attracted a burst of warm applause as soon as they fell.
"Hitler glanced at his subordinates and ambassadors on both sides with sharp eyes, stood up and began to speak. He first expressed his gratitude and welcome to Bai Chongxi and his group, and then he began to talk endlessly about how important and great the arrival of the Chinese delegation was, and then praised how difficult and brilliant the battle of China for the past half century to strive for freedom of reading."
Hitler is indeed a famous expert in fraud. After a few words, the Chinese officers, including Bai Chongxi, felt embarrassed. Hearing Hitler's tone, the Chinese people seemed to have immediately risen to the height of a savior. Without the struggle of the Chinese people, people in Asia would lose oxygen and suffocate. But it is no wonder that Hitler started his business by obtaining the support of the Germans. His ability to deceive was even after seventy years and the twenty-first century, but few people could compare.
However, the ambassadors of all countries here have all experienced ups and downs, so they will naturally not be fooled by Hitler's random words. But at least they heard a message from these words without much practical value, that is, Hitler valued the Chinese delegation this time so much that he lowered his attitude to praise them.
