The Jiuguo Hotel, the largest hotel in Qinhuangdao, is brightly lit and bustling with people. The brigade commanders of the two independent mixed brigades of the Japanese army stationed in Qinhuangdao are hosting a banquet here tonight in honor of Major General Kato Kazuo, the supreme commander of the Feihe aircraft carrier.
The entire place has been booked, and all the idlers have been cleared away. All the staff and waiters in the hotel have been strictly checked, and only after proving that there are no problems are they allowed to enter.
At the gate, there was an endless stream of guests coming to the banquet. There were Japanese, Russians, French, Germans, and people from their own countries, and of course many Chinese were among them.
No matter what time of year, there will always be traitors.
These ladies are all celebrities in Qinhuangdao and have some status in the local area. They either tend to be Japanese, or have constant contact with the Japanese, or have business dealings with the Japanese, so they give up their dignity.
With the face of my ancestors, I came to beg for mercy from the Japanese with a shy face.
At this time, distance and identity were revealed. Foreigners did not need to be searched at all and could come and go freely, while Chinese people had to be searched before they could enter.
"You, stand over here!" The Japanese soldier in charge of the inspection hooked his finger at the two elegant Chinese men in robes and shouted rudely, "You have to do the inspection."
The **** seemed to be a celebrity in the education field, and his manners were elegant. Seeing the Japanese being so rude, he couldn't help but frown, but he had no choice but to walk over slowly.
The two Japanese soldiers rushed forward like wolves and tigers, checked up and down, and even touched the crotch twice before putting them in. The two men turned blue with anger and bit their lips.
Guests were let in one after another, and naturally among them women screamed when they were being harassed, so the door was very lively.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the banquet started. First, the two brigade leaders gave welcome speeches, and then Kato thanked Kato. Then there were some celebration activities. One of the programs was that two celebrities in the education field wanted to inscribe Kato Kato on the spot.
.
Amidst the warm applause of the crowd, two celebrities in the education field came on the stage. Next to them, someone brought two tables with the Four Treasures of the Study on them, which were used for the two of them to draw and write inscriptions.
The tall one's name is Gao Bojun, and the short one's name is Song Sitao. They are both local calligraphers and painters, and are well-known in the calligraphy and painting circles. They didn't want to come this time. The Japanese came to the house to threaten them, so they came here for the safety of their families.
Gao Bojun reached out to pick up the brush, but Song Sitao picked it up first, and then stepped in front of the rice paper on the table. "Brother Zhihan, let me start with some ideas." After speaking, he splashed ink and started to draw.
Gao Bojun took a step back and watched Song Sitao's painting. He saw that his technique was skillful and his brushstrokes were quick and easy. He finished a painting in a short time.
Putting down his pen, Song Sitao took a step back, nodded to Gao Bojun and said with a smile, "Brother Zhihan, could you please inscribe it for me? We will count as one."
Gao Bojun glanced at Song Sitao's painting, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He stepped to the table, reached out and grabbed the pen on the table.
Gao Bojun had never felt so emotional before as the big pens were flying. He seemed to be integrated into the eloquent big characters.
Brushing——, at the end of the last stroke of iron painting and silver hook, Gao Bojun took out a small seal from his arms, and then stamped his own seal next to Song Sitao’s name at the end—Zhihanzhuo Seal.
After finishing all this, Gao Bojun signaled to Song Sitao, and the two of them grabbed one side and unfolded the three-meter-long scroll toward everyone present.
"ah--"
People's eyes fell on the painting where the ink was still wet, and they all immediately exclaimed, especially the Japanese, whose expressions became very ugly.
This is a freehand painting. It shows a mighty general, standing on horseback and raising his sword, pointing at the Japanese pirates. Behind him are thousands of troops, each holding a sword and a gun, shouting and fighting against the Japanese pirates. Behind him are
The word "Qi" in Douda can be clearly seen on the big flag.
Qi Jiguang, the two masters of calligraphy and painting painted a picture of Qi Jiguang's fight against the Japanese.
There are many Japanese people who understand Chinese history, and naturally they know the historical story of Qi Jiguang's resistance to the Japanese. And the intention of this Japanese person to paint this painting at this time is self-evident.
"What do you mean by working?" the two brigade commanders asked in a deep voice with their hands pressed on the handles of their sabers.
Gao Bojun twirled his beard with his hand, laughed, and said, "Your Excellency, Colonel, please don't worry, there is an inscription here."
Looking in the direction of his finger, everyone could clearly see a poem written by Gao Bojun on one side, and their faces became even more ugly now.
"Don't you know Chinese characters?" Gao Bojun sneered and shouted, "Then I will read it to you."
The Great Wall has a billion soldiers. How can the national humiliation treat our children and grandchildren peacefully?
I am willing to carry a hundred thousand tiger and wolf brigade and march into Tokyo with a leaping horse and a sword!
Gao Bojun's sonorous and powerful voice echoed in the hall, and everyone could hear it clearly. Suddenly no one spoke, and the hall became silent.
"Baga!" Looking at the two old men standing proudly on the stage, the two brigade commanders were immediately furious. They pulled out their pistols from their waists and aimed several shots at the two of them.
As the gunfire rang out, the two old men staggered, and then blood overflowed from the corners of their mouths. They looked at each other, then raised the Qi Jiguang Anti-Japanese Pictures in their hands and roared one last time: "You little devils, you rabbit tails can't grow."
!”
The thin but not frail bodies fell to the ground. Even so, they did not let go of the scroll in their hands. The blood flowing from their bodies instantly soaked the scroll in their hands.
There was silence in the hall. Both Chinese and foreigners were shocked by these two powerless scholars. They never expected that these two people could be so courageous.
Seeing the two people lying on the ground, many other Chinese people in the hall lowered their heads. They felt their faces were burning so much that they wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
"Drag them out, send people to their homes, capture their families and shoot them." The two brigade commanders roared with ferocious faces. They originally wanted them to come to join the fun, but they didn't expect that they would do it in front of General Kato.
After losing such an adult, he naturally refused to give up, "Let everyone who goes against the imperial army see this is the end of confrontation."
A group of Japanese soldiers immediately rushed up and carried the two people out. At the same time, a group of Japanese soldiers left the Nine Kingdoms Hotel and went to the home of Gao Bojun and Song Sitao to arrest them. However, Gao Bojun and the others had already sent their families away before they arrived.
, so they were in vain.
Except for this incident, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a bit awkward. No one dared to talk casually, and it suddenly became a bit cold.
Seeing this posture, Kato stood up from his seat and said to the two brigade commanders, "Shaohiro-kun, Shimono-kun, I accept your kindness, but there are still many things on the Feihe, so I'll do it first
Let’s go back.” After that, he left.
How could the two brigade commanders let him leave like this, so they hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Excellency, General, we have also prepared a program. Please wait a moment. I guarantee you will be surprised."
Since they were so kind, Kato Kazuo had no choice but to leave, so he had to sit down again and wait to watch the next show.
At this time, the atmosphere relaxed a bit. Two social butterfly singers went up to perform several songs one after another, and the awkward atmosphere became much better.
Backstage, the hotel manager was going crazy because the cake they ordered hadn't arrived yet, and the front desk team leader had urged it several times. If it didn't arrive again, there would be trouble.
"Go and have a look at the door. If the cake arrives, send it to the lobby as soon as possible." The manager said to his two waiters and sent them to the door.
The two people arrived at the door and looked anxiously, hoping that the cake would come soon.
The time was ticking and they kept walking forward, but the cake hadn't come yet. The two of them were going crazy and wished they could go to the cake shop to get cakes by themselves.
At this moment, a rickshaw drove up from a distance and stopped at the door. In the car were two young men in suits, holding a large five-layer cake in their arms.
As soon as the car stopped, before the two people got out of the car, two waiters rushed over and asked hurriedly, "Are you here to deliver cakes?"
The two young men nodded, then carried the cake and got out of the car, followed the waiter and walked towards the door.
When they arrived at the gate, the Japanese soldier at the gate stopped them and said, "Stop, check."
The two waiters hurriedly explained, "This is a cake specially ordered by the brigade commander for the general. They have urged it many times. If there is any further delay, I am afraid they will get angry."
Upon hearing this, the Japanese soldiers did not dare to stop them and hurriedly got out of the way to let them in.
The four people walked towards the hall. The two young men observed the surroundings as they walked, and found that the place was full of Japanese soldiers and was heavily guarded.
"Brigade commander, the cake is here!" The waiter opened the way, and the group carried the cake to the hall unimpeded, and then headed towards the brigade commander and General Kato Kazuichi.
Everyone turned to look at the cake, and saw that the cake was very delicately made, and two young men were carrying it carefully towards Kato and the others.
"Your Excellency General, this is a cake we specially made for you to celebrate your arrival. You see, there are five layers in total, which represents that you have served as the captain of the Feihe for five years." Shimono stood up and introduced, with a smile on his face.
Great smile.
"Really? Then I can try it!" Kato suddenly became interested after hearing this. He picked up the knife and fork from the plate next to him.
The two young men put down the cake, then took a step back, stood behind the cake, and said, "Hello, our cake shop has prepared a greeting card for you. Please appreciate it." They handed a greeting card to them.
Came over.
As soon as Kato took the greeting card and opened it, he found a line of words written on it: Congratulations to Kato, a little devil, for going to the west. The signature below was: Chu Yifei of the Yanhuang Army.
