The report thrown by Chiang Kai-shek knocked the water glass on the table to the ground, making a huge noise, especially the anger on his face, which scared the two attendants in the office into silence. One attendant left in a hurry, and the other Huangpu
The colonel's valet who graduated from the third period was about to bend down to pick up the cup that had not been broken. An Yi had already picked up the cup and handed it to him. He waved his hand covertly to signal him to step back, and then walked towards the low cabinet by the wall.
"Principal, please calm down!"
An Yi took out a new cup from the low cabinet, poured water and persuaded softly.
Chiang Kai-shek shook his head in annoyance, and when he saw An Yi placing a glass of boiled water respectfully in front of him, he finally suppressed the shock and anger in his heart and whispered:
"Okay, sit down... I really didn't expect Japanese spies to have infiltrated into the core department of our army. If you hadn't suddenly launched an anti-rape operation in southern Sichuan, accidentally involving Zhu Zijin, the scumbag from the Munitions Administration's Reserve Bureau in Syria, I would have really
They don’t know that the crisis is around them. From this point of view, our military is the same as the government departments at all levels. Many people are rotten!”
An Yi patiently comforted: "Principal, don't be angry. Although this matter is shocking and makes people feel a cold feeling on their backs, students still have to ask the principal not to blame General Zhou Junyan, the newly appointed director of munitions, for this. As the saying goes, three days of freezing.
Nothing can be done in a day. Since the Japanese invaders can openly place such an important spy at the top of our army, it certainly cannot be done in a day or two.
"With all due respect to the students, it is estimated that the Japanese invaders began to make careful preparations for the invasion of our country ten or eight years ago. A large number of students studying in Japan became their target of rebellion and recruitment, and Zhu Zijin is a typical example. Therefore, this matter cannot be
Blame General Zhou Junyan. He has just taken up the post at the Munitions Administration and his butt is still hot. How did he know that Major General Zhu Zijin, who was stationed in the Syrian government last August and was responsible for the procurement and allocation of military supplies, was a spy paid by the Japanese?"
Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand: "What you said makes sense, but it does not become a reason to pardon Zhou Junyan. Even if he just took office today, he cannot shirk this responsibility. You also know that the Munitions Administration has the most talented people, and this department has the most talents
Zhu Zijin is just one of a large number of people who have returned from studying abroad. Therefore, we must conduct a strict personnel inspection of all departments of the Munitions Administration and even the Ministry of Military Affairs.
In the review, all those whose identities are doubtful need to be removed decisively! There is no mercy in this point. No one can sit back and shirk responsibility. Not only the Munitions Administration must conduct a thorough investigation, but also all departments in the military field must launch a large-scale investigation operation.
, dig out all hidden spies and drive all suspicious personnel out of the military, otherwise any of our military maneuvers may be known to our opponents!"
An Yi nodded slightly and stopped trying to dissuade him. Chiang Kai-shek's important decision was exactly what An Yi wanted to promote. If the internal Japanese and puppet spies were not decisively purged, the possible losses in the future would be immeasurable. Taking Zhu Zijin as the only example
For example, when the Major General Director of the Reserve Bureau of the Munitions Administration who was stationed in the Syrian government was arrested, he was in the VIP box of the Minjiang Hotel Club with several important officials from the military and administrative departments in southern Sichuan.
They were fooling around, and one of them turned out to be Major General Zhang Yang, who was about to go to southern Yunnan to serve as the commander of the Southern Yunnan Gendarmerie Headquarters. The operators of the Intelligence Bureau entered the box to show their IDs, and forcibly took away the stunned Zhu Zijin. The loyal Zhang Yang also defended his dog-meat brother
If Du Yi's adjutant Wei Cong hadn't stepped forward to explain in a low voice in time, the confused Zhang Yang would still be in the dark about the seriousness of the matter.
After a long silence, Chiang Kai-shek spoke. He looked at An Yi, who looked calm, and sighed quietly: "After you finish the affairs in the southwest, come back soon. Although everything is going well in the bandit suppression battlefield now, the Nanjing headquarters
We need a powerful person to take charge, and we cannot do without you! In addition, I asked Yu Nong to go to Xu Mansion and collect the more than 100 yuan in your report.
people were secretly escorted to Nanjing. Also, I heard that you used the newly developed radio detection equipment this time, and the effect was very good. This thing is exactly what we urgently need at the moment. With this advanced equipment, we can
Eradicate all enemy radio stations hidden around us and prevent the infiltration of traitors and the Communist Party. The impact is beyond human power!"
"Principal, the radio detection equipment is still in the experimental stage. It is far less powerful than internal rumors. In fact, the detection accuracy of this equipment is extremely low. There were many misunderstandings during this large-scale manhunt. The target locking function still needs to be further improved.
, improvements need to be made based on the data obtained from this test and the problems discovered, and it may take a long time to be officially put into production." An Yi hesitated and answered euphemistically.
Chiang Kai-shek nodded slightly disappointedly: "Yes, improvement is necessary. I heard that this set of equipment is the first in the world. It is obviously difficult, and you should be more cautious. However, after you go back, what will you do to the officials of international organizations?"
Be polite to the British envoys, they will rush from Kunming to Syria tomorrow, and you have to do your best to show off your appearance, do you understand?"
“Students understand!”
When Chiang Kai-shek saw An Yi turning around to leave, he thought about it and stopped him: "Do you know about the recent rapid fluctuations in international silver prices?"
An Yi quickly and respectfully replied: "Students focus on the war in western Yunnan and the anti-rape operation in southern Sichuan, and don't pay much attention to other things... What? Does the price of silver fluctuate greatly?"
Chiang Kai-shek said with some disappointment: "The rise and fall of silver has a great influence on our national economy and people's livelihood... That's all, we will discuss this matter later. After you go back this time, ask Yun'er to send a telegram to your wife. Your wife is very busy recently.
, I couldn’t go to Xu Mansion to see Yun’er in person, please give me a good explanation when you get back.”
"yes!"
At three o'clock in the afternoon, An Yi returned to Xu Mansion by special plane. Except for a few generals at the top of An's army, no one knew that An Yi left Xu Mansion at dawn and flew to Nanchang. He secretly met with Chiang Kai-shek and only stopped in Nanchang.
Forty-five minutes later, they returned to Xu Mansion again.
At 6:20 pm, An Yi arrived at the private room on the third floor of the Minjiang Restaurant after the secret meeting. As soon as he entered the door, Gong Qian and Xufu City Mayor Dong Zechuan stood up. An Yi waved his hand with a smile and walked over.
In front of the "couple" Zhang Hongming, who looked complicated and melancholy, he took the initiative to extend his hand and greeted with a low smile:
"Chief Zhang, Teacher Deng, I'm sorry, I'm late."
Zhang Hongming, who had a square face and showed his talent, held An Yi's hand, shook his head and smiled bitterly. Deng Ruoying, who was tall and beautiful, lowered her head and looked at the ground without shaking hands with An Yi. She seemed to be emotionally excited and conflicted.
An Yi didn't care, sat down next to Dong Zechuan, chatted a few words in a low voice, looked up at Gong Qian, and apologized softly: "I'm sorry, eldest sister, I have caused you trouble this time."
Gong Qian shook her head slightly and did not answer. She pulled Deng Ruoying, who was still standing, and brought her to the chair next to her to sit down.
An Yi turned to Zhang Hongming and shook his head: "Chief Zhang, General Lin Wei still doesn't know that the talent he highly recommended to me to help the world is actually a member of the Communist Party he is determined to overthrow. I was in Nanchang five hours ago
When I met him at the camp, he was surprised to see me. He stopped me and talked for a while, asking me why I wasn’t accompanying international organizations and British diplomats in Yunnan.
In handling the military mediation operation on the China-Myanmar border, I finally asked how you are doing? I told him that your wife Ms. Deng’s parents are seriously ill and she wants to leave the Syrian government and return to Kunshan to take care of the elderly. General Lin is very sorry. It is really a pity.
, Otherwise, with Chief Lin’s great talent and moral integrity, he will definitely be able to do great things in the prosperous and ever-changing southern Sichuan.”
Zhang Hongming looked at An Yi with some surprise. Deng Ruoying also raised his head and looked at the young general whom he had deliberately alienated but actually admired very much in his heart. He carefully recalled what An Yi had just said. He was surprised that An Yi flew to Nanchang so quickly and met with him.
When his cousin Lin Wei met, he was extremely shocked and flustered. He nervously guessed what An Yi meant by doing this.
When Zhang Hongming saw An Yi pouring wine for him, he quickly stood up, grabbed the wine bottle from An Yi's hand, filled the wine for everyone, picked up the wine glass, and said movedly:
"Commander, to tell the truth, Hongming has never regretted working under the command of the Commander and Mr. Dong. You...you are different from the Kuomintang reactionaries and other warlords. You have strong patriotism and noble moral sentiments. I can work with you."
After working hard for the happiness of the people in southern Sichuan for nearly two years, Hongming has been deeply touched and benefited a lot.
"And Dean Gong. I have heard about Dean Gong's kindness and open-mindedness a long time ago. I have heard about how Dean Gong was kidnapped by Japanese spies during the Anti-Japanese War in Songhu. I admire the relationship between Dean Gong and the commander very much.
The deep family ties, you...you have contributed a lot to this country and nation.
"Also...there is also the commander's friendly attitude towards all parties without distinction during the Northern Expedition and after the victory, the encouragement and support for countless patriotic young people, the commander's kindness in repeatedly saving our party cadres, and the friendship with the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.
All this proves the open-mindedness and generosity of the commander, the Anjia Army officers and the governments at all levels in southern Sichuan. Even when Hong Ming and his wife Ruoying were caught today, Hong Ming did not have any resentment at all.
"Here, please allow Hongming to express his gratitude and regret with this glass of wine, okay?"
An Yi didn't expect Zhang Hongming to be so cheerful and couldn't help but look at Dong Zechuan.
Dong Zechuan nodded slightly, turned to his former right-hand man, sighed sadly, stood up, picked up the cup, and said emotionally:
"Brother Hongming, although you and I have different beliefs, I admire my personality and mind very much. I won't say anything else, come on! Do it!"
Zhang Hongluan bowed gratefully to his boss Dong Zechuan, raised his glass with both hands, touched it lightly with Dong Zechuan, then politely clinked the glass with An Yi and Gong Qian who stood up together, raised his head and drank the spicy liquor in one gulp.
, showing the dry wine glass, his eyes sparkling.
Dong Zechuan sat down with his face flushed, adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and sighed sadly.
An Yi smiled faintly, showed the bottom of the cup to Zhang Hongluan, who was about the same age as him, put down the cup and sat down slowly, looking at Gong Qian and Deng Ruoying who were staring at each other with interest.
The box door rang twice and slowly opened. The panting little Xinghua walked in step by step. She glanced at her adoptive father An Yi and her eldest lady Gong Qian, and quickly rushed towards them. She was surprised and her eyes were red.
In Deng Ruoying's arms, she sobbed and asked:
"Teacher, why are you leaving? Why didn't you tell me first... The classmates don't know that the teacher is going back to his hometown. If they knew, how sad it would be! If you leave, who will be our class teacher?
Who will teach us to grow? I...I won't let you go..."
"Xinghua..."
Deng Ruoying couldn't stop her tears from falling. She hugged her smartest and most sensible student tightly, choked and speechless.
An Yi was very moved when he saw it. He moved a chair from the side and placed it between Gong Qian and Deng Ruoying. He gently pulled his adopted daughter and persuaded in a low voice:
"Idiot, it's human nature for you, Teacher Deng, to be filial to your parents. Besides, you can meet again in the future. As long as you and your classmates are successful, Teacher Deng will be very happy no matter where you are. Come on.
,Daughter, sit down, if you have anything to say, sit down and say it slowly."
Deng Ruoying waited for Xiao Xinghua to hold her hand tightly and sit down with great nostalgia. She hugged her student again in excitement and shed sad tears.
Dong Zechuan let out a long sigh and leaned towards An Yi: "Commander, you called Xinghua, right?"
"Yeah, her teacher is gone, so I have to come and see her. No matter what, I don't want to be speechless in front of my daughter's questions." An Yi grabbed the wine bottle and filled Dong Zechuan's wine.
Dong Zechuan was very moved and secretly patted An Yi's leg twice: "Commander, I finally know why so many brothers are willing to sacrifice their lives for you! Come on, I'll give you a toast!"
When Gong Qian saw Deng Ruoying and Xiao Xinghua crying like tears, she shook her head sadly and looked away, just in time to meet the eyes of Zhang Hongming who was looking over.
Gong Qian sadly raised her wine glass and toasted to Zhang Hongming from a distance. Zhang Hongming quickly stood up, gently clinked the glass with Gong Qian, and asked in a low voice:
"The ticket that Dean Gong gave to his subordinates is for Shanghai. May I ask, what is written in the letter that was given to Zhuo Jing?"
Gong Qian thought for a while and answered truthfully: "I just made a suggestion. If you two have nowhere to go for the time being, you might as well go to the Oriental News Agency in Shanghai and work for a while. It won't be too late to leave when the situation becomes clearer.
You may know that He Jing, the president of Oriental Group, came from the "Central Daily News" before.
Now he has become an American citizen, but he is still a patriotic Chinese. He has always had a good relationship with Xiaoyi and I. I believe that your talents will be fully displayed. However, it is best not to come to southern Sichuan.
, we have too many acquaintances, even if we don’t tell you, you will probably feel uncomfortable yourself, right?”
Zhang Hongming looked at the beautiful and dignified Gong Qian in shock. After a while, he nodded sincerely and expressed his heartfelt thanks: "Sister Gong, thank you, I..."
"No need to thank me, this is Xiaoyi's intention, ugh... take care of yourself when you go!"
