Gong Qian and Ye Qing looked at each other, then turned to An Yi in unison. There was no anger or hatred in their eyes anymore, they were all filled with joy and emotion. Their beautiful big eyes were as beautiful as autumn waves, so bright and moving that they almost made An Yi crazy.
"Brother, I'm sorry, I wrongly blamed you." Gong Qian apologized in a low voice with deep affection on her face.
Ye Qing smiled sheepishly: "Boy, you are really awesome. If you have made such great achievements, I think people all over the country will be grateful to you."
"Don't be grateful. Just promise not to pinch anyone next time..." An Yi grinned and stroked his arm that was starting to turn purple.
At this time, Shen Fengdao strode from the side door, greeted Wu Ma and walked directly to An Yi: "The people from the attendant's room came to the door and said that the commander-in-chief was angry and asked you to go to the commander-in-chief's residence immediately. See. "
An Yi stood up, shrugged, and nodded indifferently: "Ha! I guess my strike has taken effect."
"Chen Yu just learned that Uncle De fell ill in the middle of the meeting last night. Commander-in-Chief Chiang Kai-shek and a group of central government bosses rushed him to the Army Hospital with him. The Commander-in-Chief went to the hospital to visit the guards at around five o'clock this morning and left at around ten o'clock. ." Shen Fengdao added.
An Yi was shocked: "What? Uncle De fell ill? Hurry! Get the car ready, let's go to the hospital first."
"yes!"
After seeing off the nervous An Yi, Wu Ma sighed and said that it was impossible to have a meal together. Ye Qing and Gong Qian helped Wu Ma put the dishes and chopsticks, and sat around the dining table to chat. Ye Qing said that An Yi was more and more It was becoming increasingly difficult for people to see through him. Gong Qian said that he was already a brave and resourceful man. He was not strict with trivial matters but had a great heart. He was more reassuring than before.
While Gong Qian and others were commenting on An Yi, Chiang Kai-shek, who had completed secret discussions with Yang Yongtai, the first think tank around him, also came to the dining table and ate and talked with his wife Soong Meiling.
"Darling, what's on your mind?" Song Meiling asked with concern.
Chiang Kai-shek nodded slowly: "In the past few days, I asked Chang Qing to formulate a disaster relief and resettlement plan for Hunan, Hubei and Sichuan based on An Yi's suggestions. Chang Qing wrote for three days and only came up with an outline. He told me that the specific implementation details must be discussed with An Yi. The decision can only be made after discussion. Chang Qing was not familiar with the affairs of Hunan, Hubei and Sichuan. I told Chang Qing that An Yi was not willing to take up this position, so I proposed He Guoguang, Lin Wei and other candidates to Chang Qing for detailed consideration and decision. As a result, Chang Qing considered it for a day. He also told me that apart from An Yi, no one else has this ability. Let’s not talk about An Yi’s good relationship with the 44th Army of Western Hunan and the Shizhen Division of Northwest Guizhou. He only talked about the other troops involved in this task, the 16th Yin Jinan Division. It cannot be used. Yin Jinan Division is not only responsible for guarding the front lines of Yichang, Zigui, and Yidu, but also must pay close attention to the melee in Sichuan and look for opportunities to occupy Badong at any time.
At this time, Yin Jinan was methodically strengthening waterway defense and public security control in the jurisdiction. He had just reached a consensus with local counties to resume economic construction and implemented the newly improved military-civilian joint construction plan. He simply did not have the energy to take care of other matters. At most, he could only transport a large number of disaster victims. and security forces, the other surrounding divisions are all local troops, and veteran generals such as Zhang Fakui and Fan Shisheng will not sell their accounts. Therefore, unless An Yi, who has a good relationship with various ministries, goes there, it will be difficult to implement the plan.
This makes me feel very embarrassed. I originally planned to transfer An Yi to the Longhai line as the former enemy's chief of staff when the war started, but now Chang Qing's opinion has disrupted my plan."
Song Meiling nodded and thought quietly: "Chang Qing's opinion is stable and objective. Chang Qing's wisdom and caution still have such concerns, which proves that this matter is indeed very difficult to handle. In this case, it is better to transfer An Yi to western Hubei.
Well, in my opinion, Western Hubei
The disaster relief operation is more critical, especially the political impact is extremely huge. It is far easier to win the support and praise of the international community and domestic people than the civil war. And An Yi, with his good reputation among the people, is more suitable for this task.
A heavy responsibility.
Darling, if you decide, I will contact representatives from all walks of life in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, the International Red Cross, envoys from Europe and the United States, chambers of commerce and social groups, and we will go to western Hubei together to show the openness of the central government.
Through practical disaster relief operations, we can gain recognition at home and abroad, and through the strong contrast between the central government and the northwest warlords, we can win a politically victorious battle that is not inferior to military occupation."
Chiang Kai-shek weighed it for a moment and nodded solemnly: "That's fine. Compared with the front line, the importance of Western Hubei is no less important, or even greater...Shihe, why hasn't An Yi arrived yet?"
"Junior brother An called and said that he was surprised to hear that General Zhu Yizhi was admitted to the hospital. He was rushing to visit him. He would rush to see the principal immediately after he was done. He would be here in about fifteen minutes," Wang Shihe replied.
Chiang Kai-shek nodded and said nothing. Soong Meiling turned around and ordered the waiter to add another set of tableware and another dish. The couple talked in a low voice and waited quietly.
