5.19 Hung Gate Feast

The night of Lushan is notoriously beautiful. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

followed Qian Dajun out of the "beautiful house", and under the blowing of the night breeze, the irritability and uneasiness in Huang Haoran's heart disappeared. In his imagination, Lushan should be a cool and quiet place. It's a pity that it's winter now, and such a cold night really can't make people have any reverie about Lushan......

I really don't understand why the highest authorities insist on choosing to meet him on the top of Lushan, could it be that the highest authorities have already felt that he is about to lose Lushan?

According to the development of history, in a few months, Lushan will be occupied by the Japanese army. Until the defeat of the Japanese, the highest authorities could not return here again.

The highest authority's attachment to Lushan at the moment may be a kind of sixth sense......

Lushan in the winter night seems extraordinarily quiet, if it weren't for the fact that there were teams of armed gendarmes walking by from time to time on the mountain road, Huang Haoran would really feel that he had accidentally walked into another world!

There is a whole army garrison at the foot of Lushan Mountain, plus these gendarmerie units on the mountain, Huang Haoran and Qian Dajun can rest assured that they can wander in the night.

Qian Dajun led Huang Haoran along the paved stone road towards the mountainside villa area, and neither of them spoke along the way.

When he was about to walk to the villa area, Huang Haoran saw a few stone tables and some wooden benches on a small piece of grass on the side of the road, surrounded by tall plane trees, as if he had been standing here for hundreds of years. Huang Haoran was unconsciously attracted by these plane trees, he stopped and walked to the grass.

Qian Dajun sensed the abnormality behind him, turned around, and saw the intoxication on Huang Haoran's face.

"I said Brother Youchen! You're so relaxed! On such a cold winter night, you actually enjoy the night view! It's not too early! You better go to the villa early to rest! You won't get much sleep if you wake up early......"

Huang Haoran walked to the side of the grass and said this with a smile, Huang Haoran turned around and asked Qian Dajun after hearing it: "Has Director Qian ever heard the words 'plant a good plane tree and attract a phoenix'?" I think this sycamore must be a very noble tree species, right? Can attract phoenixes! It must not be ...... ordinary."

Qian Dajun smiled and said: "I have heard these two sentences, but this plane tree has not left a good impression on me!" There is also a sycamore tree in the courtyard of my hometown, but it has never attracted any phoenixes! But the dead leaves are withering, the fluff is flying, and the trees are full of insects! Therefore, the contents of this book cannot be fully believed......"

When Qian Dajun spoke, Huang Haoran pulled Qian Dajun from the stone road to the grass, and then began to say some folklore related to the plane tree.

Huang Haoran lowered his voice and asked Qian Dajun if he had encountered anything unpleasant recently, and Qian Dajun immediately realized the reason why Huang Haoran asked this. Thinking of the recent change in the attitude of the highest authorities towards himself, Qian Dajun's expression looked a little bitter.

"A companion is like a tiger...... Everyone only looks at my scenery and gnashes their teeth at me! But who can tell the bitterness behind this? ”

Qian Dajun is really sad, in Qian Dajun's opinion, he has been busy with the saddle for the highest authorities in the past few years, and in Xi'an, he almost lost his life! Now there are just more gossiping people, and the highest authorities want people to take his place, which is really unacceptable to Qian Dajun!

If it weren't for the "madam" coming forward, I'm afraid that the position of the head of the chamberlain would have changed a long time ago!

Rabbits and dead dogs are cooked, and birds are all hidden! This is Qian Dajun's truest feeling now!

Huang Haoran's few words hooked up Qian Dajun's dissatisfaction buried in his heart. Seeing that Qian Dajun spit out the truth, Huang Haoran knew that he would definitely gain something tonight. Next, as long as Qian Dajun feels that Huang Haoran and him are in the same disease and have fallen out of favor in front of the highest authorities, then Huang Haoran will definitely be able to dig out something valuable from Qian Dajun's mouth!

Huang Haoran pulled Qian Dajun and sat down on the wooden bench, he wanted to make good use of this opportunity!

The hard work paid off, and under Huang Haoran's side knock, Qian Dajun finally said that he had leaked his mouth. Huang Haoran learned that tomorrow morning the Soviet ambassador would come to Lushan to meet with the highest authorities and discuss the distribution of the first batch of Soviet aid to China.

I really wanted to sleep, so someone brought me a pillow! Isn't the 25th Army now in a "famine"? Huang Haoran's "deep friendship" with Soviet advisers on the Nanjing battlefield finally reached the time when it could be "discounted"!

Huang Haoran accompanied Qian Dajun to complain while thinking in his heart how he would "snatch things" from the Soviet ambassador tomorrow, and their conversation lasted for almost half an hour! If it weren't for Qian Dajun, he would have to go back to Meilu to serve the highest authorities, he really wanted to talk to Huang Haoran until dawn!

Recently, as the attitude of the highest authorities towards Qian Dajun has changed, Qian Dajun's "popularity" seems to have deteriorated overnight. Many officials who used to scold him with shy faces are now hiding far away, and Qian Dajun has not spoken so happily for a long time!

After leaving the meadow, Qian Dajun sent Huang Haoran to a small villa on the mountainside. The interior of the house is very elegantly decorated and furnished, a bit like a woman's house. Qian Dajun told Huang Haoran that this villa was given to Qian Dajun by a senior member in Wuhan last year, and before Qian Dajun took over, this was really the gentle township where the senior Jin harbored Jiaojiao! Since Qian Dajun has been with the highest authorities all the year round, he has no time to enjoy this villa, so the decoration and furnishings have remained the same as before, and there have been no changes.

Huang Haoran was a little surprised, didn't the highest authorities let Qian Dajun lead him to the arranged place to rest? Why did Qian Dajun actually bring himself to his villa? Isn't this a tampering with the will of the supreme authorities? In doing so, are you not afraid of being pursued by the highest authorities?

Huang Haoran's doubts were clearly written on his face, and after Qian Dajun saw it, he patted Huang Haoran on the shoulder and said, "Brother Youchen! You are true and sincere! If you had been seated, you would have to sleep on a camp bed tonight, and you would have fought in front for so many days! What's so bad about enjoying happiness? Listen to me! Stay here with peace of mind! Early tomorrow morning, I'll have someone come and take you to Meilu! Make sure you can't get you wrong! ”

Huang Haoran thanked Qian Dajun and sent him away, only to find that there were still people in the villa who had been staying here, no wonder the furniture and floors were spotless.

Looking at a few delicate maids who came out of nowhere, Huang Haoran thought to himself, this big man who gave the villa to Qian Dajun is really delicate enough! Even the woman is ready for Qian Dajun! It's a pity that Qian Dajun hasn't lived in this villa for a day, and I don't know if these maids have given Qian Dajun a green hat.

***************************************************

With the full-scale outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, Japan occupied most of China's coastal areas.

Without these ports, the Wuhan government will not be able to obtain the weapons and materials purchased from foreign countries, and coupled with the huge consumption on the frontal battlefield, the logistics supply of the Chinese army has finally gone into a big problem!

When the 99th Army was pushed from Shanghai to Changshu, it purchased a batch of weapons and equipment from the black market, and the price at that time had quadrupled compared with before the start of the Anti-Japanese War! After Huang Haoran's troops withdrew to Anqing, Wang Huanzhi once again entered the arms black market with a money bag, and at this time he found that the price in the market had doubled compared to Changshu, which means that the money spent to buy a Mauser rifle now could buy eight Mauser rifles before the war!

Even the old sleeves made in Hanyang have come forward to buy them, light and heavy machine guns and mortars, which are simply priceless things! If it weren't for Huang Haoran's previous use of the power of the Qing Gang to build a few smuggling lines in Guangzhou, just filling the equipment gap for the two main divisions of the 99th Division and the 139th Division, Wang Huanzhi's life would have been killed!

The current equipment gap of the 25 Army can only be solved by the Military Commission. Huang Haoran came to Lushan this time to meet with the supreme authorities, and in addition to getting the military order for the 25th Group Army to go to Xuzhou, he also wanted to "reconcile the fate" of the 25th Group Army in front of the supreme authorities.

So early in the morning of January 18, Huang Haoran rushed to Meilu. In addition to having breakfast with the highest authorities, he had a more important purpose, that is, to block the Soviet ambassador to China, Bogomolov!

The batch of Soviet aid that the Soviets are about to deliver to the Wuhan government can be said to be the biggest piece of fat in the hands of the Military Commission now! Huang Haoran even dreamed of wanting to take a bite!

The truth that the building near the water gets the moon first, Huang Haoran understands!

Due to the relatively low temperature in the morning of Lushan in winter, the "lady" arranged the breakfast of the highest authority indoors.

With a side dish of porridge and an omelette, the food in front of Huang Haoran was exactly the same as in front of the highest authorities. In front of the "Madame" was bread and milk. The "lady", who has long been accustomed to American life, even changed the breakfast of the highest authority to a Western style before, but recently, the highest authority has asked people to change his breakfast back to Chinese!

This is all because after the start of the Anti-Japanese War, the highest authorities' urgent requests for help from the United States and Britain have been like mud cows into the sea, and there is no response, so now even the highest authorities have no good impression of Western-style breakfast!

This "little struggle" by the highest authorities made the atmosphere of this breakfast a little unpleasant, and the "Madame" cut the bread with a knife, and the blade and the plate made an unpleasant sound.

"Mother, Xipi! What free country? What democratic president? Snob! Have feelings for China? I see that Americans have feelings for Chinese money and Chinese blood! ”

While eating, the highest authorities suddenly began to scold the Americans in front of the "lady".

"Madame" felt a little uncomfortable when she heard the supreme authorities scolding Roosevelt, and she kept her face calm and did not speak. Huang Haoran could only choose to pretend to be deaf at this time, he lowered his head as if he hadn't heard anything, and fiddled with the Zhejiang pickles in the bowl.

Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, "Madame" praised Roosevelt many times in front of the highest authorities. It is said that Roosevelt made his fortune doing business with China. How Roosevelt himself grew up in an environment full of Chinese furniture, and how he had feelings for China. The words "Madame" infected the highest authorities, who invested a lot of emotional capital in Roosevelt, who was paralyzed in a wheelchair.

But after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Roosevelt's performance disappointed the highest authorities! Obviously, Roosevelt did not accept the favor of the highest authorities, and he repeatedly avoided China's calls for help under the pretext that Congress and the people wanted the United States to remain neutral. At the same time, US ships carrying tens of thousands of tons of scrap steel and used iron and carrying these strategic materials that Japan urgently needed were sailing from the Pacific Ocean to Japan. These supplies were eventually turned into piles of guns and shells, which were transported to the battlefields of China.

Instead of receiving the American aid he wanted from Roosevelt, the highest authorities were subjected to guns made of American materials! Every time I think of this, the highest authorities are angry!

The Americans are simply using the war to make a fortune under the banner of "neutrality"! Every penny they earn from Japan is stained with the flesh and blood of the Chinese! The British and French governments were swallowed up by the countercurrent of appeasement, the United States adopted this policy of watching the fire from across the strait, and coupled with the vacillating attitude of Germany, the diplomatic circle painstakingly managed by the highest authorities can be said to have collapsed overnight!

Fortunately, the Soviets extended a big hot hand at the most difficult time for this supreme authority!

Voroshilov, former member of the Soviet Union's National Defense Committee, said that in order to support China's war of resistance against Japanese aggression, the Soviet government decided to provide weapons and equipment for another 20 Chinese divisions. What surprised the highest authorities even more was that the Soviet Union also decided to supply 124 fighters to four Chinese brigades. and sent the Soviet Air Force Volunteer Brigade to aid China in the war.

Although Chiang Kai-shek, who was cornered, did not have a good impression of the Soviet Union, the Soviets now held the planes, artillery, and firearms that China urgently needed. The heart that is already hungry is close to the back, and China can't do without it!

"If you have milk, you are a mother"! The highest authorities can't care so much! Harvest! As long as it's something that is urgently needed for war, take it all! As for the ideas of Britain and the United States, fuck it!

The highest authorities have even publicly stated many times recently: "The Soviet Union's assistance to China in the fight against Japan is selfless." ”

It was as if the highest authorities had changed people, completely forgetting about his vicious curse on the USSR over the years. Even Stalin's thick mustache, which he had always hated the most, became amiable in his eyes at this time.

Today, the highest authorities will meet with Soviet Ambassador to China Bogomolov on Lushan Mountain, and he will continue to borrow money from the Soviet Union to buy weapons! With guns, the highest authorities can continue to shout the tough tune of "fighting to the end"!

Under the pressure of the powerful aura released by the highest authorities, the breakfast of the "lady" ended early. Huang Haoran paid attention to the food left in front of "Madame", and he found that "Madame" only ate half a slice of bread and a little vegetable.

The first family is indeed the first family! If it were replaced by an ordinary people's home, the husband and wife would definitely not be unhappy because the country hugged the thigh of the United States or the thigh of the Soviet Union. This political marriage is really not built!

Huang Haoran also wanted to quickly finish the food in front of him and then find an excuse to leave the table, but the highest authorities did not let his idea come true. Huang Haoran had just begun to speed up the cleaning of his breakfast, when the highest authorities suddenly threw out a topic related to the 25th Group Army!

"Youchen! Did you encounter any difficulties in the expansion of your troops? Let me know if you have one! I'll try to help you out! I'm going to Xuzhou! Li Delin can't be allowed to watch the jokes of the Central Army! To fight small Japan, you still need to have some strength! ”

Huang Haoran listened to the words of the highest authorities, and his heart was secretly refreshed! He is worried that he can't find an excuse to ask the highest authorities for Su aid! Now it's good! The highest authorities took the initiative to open their mouths! Then you're welcome! Hurry up and open your mouth!

"Take a seat! My unit was formed relatively late, and there were several big battles in quick succession! So this loss ......"

Huang Haoran was just about to turn the conversation to the shortage of weapons and equipment, but the highest authorities interrupted his speech.

"I know that your troops have suffered a lot of losses! An order has already been given to the Military Council! Give priority to your 25th Army! Fortunately, the first phase of the officer training corps has just ended, and the Military Commission can still get these two hundred officers! ”

Huang Haoran, who said the first half of what the highest authorities, was overjoyed, but in the second half, there was a sudden reversal! Huang Haoran reacted only after the highest authorities finished speaking, and the highest authorities did not want to replenish weapons and materials for the 25th Group Army, but to mix his descendants into Huang Haoran's troops!

If the 25th Group Army really accepted these 200 lineage officers who had just completed brainwashing in the officer training regiment, then the 25th Group Army would really become a complete lineage unit! At that time, will Huang Haoran still be able to swim between all forces like before and play his side-kicks?

Originally, Huang Haoran wanted to take the opportunity of this breakfast to pit the highest authorities for a vote, but he didn't expect that the highest authorities would prepare him a "Hongmen Banquet"!

Thinking of this, Huang Haoran's back began to sweat violently! Whether the surname of the 25th Group Army is Huang or Jiang is between the next few sentences......

"Take a seat! It would be great to have such a large number of experienced officers! The 25th Group Army is now being formed, and there are still many vacancies. I don't know how many people the Military Commission can appoint? Can you give me a thorough understanding of the commission, and make arrangements as soon as possible! ”

Say no to it! Not only that, Huang Haoran also had to act like he was very willing to accept the supreme authorities' mixing sand into the 25th Group Army! If the highest authorities find out that Huang Haoran has any disobedience at this time, the 25th Group Army will soon be dismantled by the Military Commission!

The supreme authority in 1938 was the absolute authority! Before the Americans came to China, Huang Haoran couldn't find any thigh to compete with the highest authorities, so he could only choose to bow his head!

"There are more than 400 people in this officer training corps, how many do you want?"

The highest authorities said it very casually, but Huang Haoran's sweat was even worse! More than 400 people! This can almost completely change the company platoon commander of the 25 Army at once! How much is appropriate? Huang Haoran's brain is spinning fast!

In the end, he decided to retreat!

"Take a seat! Can you give me all the students in this session? Since I'm going to the 5 war zone to mix sand! You need more good sand in your hands! ”

Huang Haoran said with sincerity, but the highest authorities narrowed their eyes......

In the end, Huang Haoran said this for the development of the Central Army? Or is this kid ready to bring disaster to the east?

Using the cadets of the officer training corps to mix sand in the middle of the miscellaneous army sounds like a very good suggestion, but Huang Haoran didn't say how much sand he planned to sprinkle out! If all these 400 people were sent by Huang Haoran to the miscellaneous army, how should the 25th Group Army be controlled?

Is Huang Haoran loyal or rebellious... The highest authorities are also a little confused!
