Volume 10 Dragon Soaring Nine Days Chapter 11 Turning Point
Huo got up early in the morning, and Pei Chengyi saw the underwear neatly stacked on the bedside table. γγThe military uniform hanging on the coat rack by the door, Pei Chengyi has a sense of dΓ©jΓ vu. Suddenly. Pei Chengyi came back to his senses. My wife is still in Islamabad. The one who did these things for him must have been the orderly named Yu Weiping.
What a hassle!
When you put on your underwear and pick up your military uniform. Pei Chengyi is now a new military uniform customized yesterday.
The tailor is too fast.
After careful inspection, there was no problem, and Pei Chengyi put on his military uniform and came downstairs.
"General, get ready early."
"You washed the clothes, right?"
Yu Weiping nodded and brought the fritters and soy milk.
"I'll just do these things in the future." Pei Chengyi sighed secretly, "There is." When did this military uniform arrive? β
"The tailor called, I'll go and get it back early in the morning, clean the chess pieces, there's no problem, right?"
"Got it in the morning?" Pei Chengyi glanced at the sky, the net was dawning, Yu Weiping must have gone to retrieve it at dawn. Glancing at the orderly again. Pei Chengyi shook his head and said, "Sit down." Have breakfast together. β
"General, you eat first, I'll check the car."
"You
Before Pei Chengyi could speak, Yu Weiping had already left the restaurant.
When Pei Chengyi finished eating breakfast, Yu Weiping was already ready to go out for Pei Chengyi.
"General, Mr. Xiang Xiang called last night and asked you to come over early this morning."
"What time was last night?" Pei Chengyi is now a little rusty when Yu Weiping talks about the title of Xiang Linghui, although he didn't hear those words clearly, but he is definitely not the well-known "General Xiang" of the staff as a service soldier of the General Staff, Yu Weiping should be very familiar with everyone's name for Xiang Linghui.
Could it be that Yu Weiping and Xiang Linghui have any special relationship?
"You haven't been sleeping online for a long time, Mr. Xiang asked me not to disturb you."
Pei Chengyi nodded and observed the change in Yu Weiping's expression through the rearview mirror in the car.
There must be something unreasonable, maybe the two really have a special relationship, and they have to ask Xiang Linghui clearly.
came to the General Staff Headquarters and asked Yu Weiping to take the briefcase to the renovated office, and Pei Chengyi went to Xiang Linghui alone.
"Those officers have already taken care of the affairs for you, and they will arrive in two days, have you had breakfast?" Xiang Linghui pointed over the soaked hair, "There are two things, one good and one bad." The good thing is that your family is already on the way back to China, and they will arrive at noon, so I asked Dongfang Wen to meet you at the airport
"Mr. Xiang, Dongfang Wen is from the General Affairs Office, right?"
Xiang Linghui sat down and glanced at Pei Chengyi and nodded.
"Transfer him to me, I need an officer like him who understands personnel."
"It's no problem to transfer it to you, isn't it" Xiang Linghui was a little nervous, "Is it that Xiaoyu did something wrong?" β
"No, I always find it inconvenient, after all, I am a family man with a pound by my side. Female orderlies always feel awkward. Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "Of course, I didn't drive her away." After Qingqing came over, I asked her to stay at home to help me take care of my wife and daughter, especially the little girl who was only over a year old and needed someone to take care of her. You know that, too. My mother was paralyzed in bed and needed to be taken care of. Take care of things at home. I can work with peace of mind. β
Xiang Linghui seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, when Dongfang Wen comes back, I'll let him report to you." β
"What's the other thing?" Noticing Xiang Linghui's expression, Pei Chengyi affirmed the guess in his heart and did not ask about Yu Weiping again.
"Shortly after you left last night, Yuan called, and the foreign minister had already bowed at the United Nations General Assembly," Xiang Linghui said, glancing at his watch, "The vote ended about an hour ago." It's almost time to get the message. β
Pei Chengyi frowned slightly and took out a cigarette.
Not long after, Yuan Chenhao rushed over, turned on the TV for the two, and tuned to the international news channel.
The outside world has turned upside down.
On June 100, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, Yan Shanglong, proposed at the United Nations General Assembly to restore Sikkim's membership in the United Nations, and the proposal entered the voting stage after being supported by Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Sri Lanka and other old countries.
It can be said that this vote set a new record.
From Yan Shanglong's proposal, to voting, and then to voting, it only took a thug.
Although several years before that, the Republic, Pakistan, Nepal and several other countries have been working hard to restore Sikkim's membership in the United Nations, such as the President of the Republic of China Yuanqing, the Chairman of the National Congress Gu Weimin, the Premier of the State Council Yan Jingyu Zong Yingren, the Executive Vice Premier and Minister of National Defense Ye Zhisheng, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Yan Shanglong and other national leaders have raised this matter to the leaders of hundreds of countries around the world during foreign affairs visits and international conferences. And with the commitment of these countries, the leaders of Pakistan, Nepal and other countries have also supported Sikkim in foreign affairs, but it is really unbelievable that the voting work can be completed in a few days. You know, the republic's return to the United Nations took many years, and the discussions before the vote lasted for several months. The fact that the "Sikkim Bill" was passed so quickly was in addition to the efforts of the Republic and other countries. It also has a lot to do with the attitude of the United States and Europe.
Although the United States, Europe and other countries voted against it when they voted. But not a pound. Western countries voiced their opposition before the vote.
The attitude of the American and European countries is related to the history of Sikkim. Because when India, Pakistan and other countries declared independence from the British, Sikkim also declared independence. Sikkim was not annexed by India "all at once", less than 2 years after the declaration of independence. That is, the thug threw the year to become India, and the contact state "Zhiyan" was officially reduced to a pound in India. "Bang". In other words, it took India many years of force to completely annex Sikkim. It is impossible for Western countries to ignore the history of Sikkim as an independent state, let alone erase the history and consider India's annexation of Sikkim legitimate. In other words, if India's annexation of Sikkim was legitimate, then Iraq's invasion of Kuwait was also legitimate, because Kuwait was historically a province of Iraq.
The attitude of Western countries is more related to practical interests. The Republic actively pulled support for the independence of Sikkim. Not that the independence of Sikkim is much good for the republic. For the Republic, Sikkim has resolved the most disputes over the border between China and India in the middle section after independence. And with the national strength of the republic, it will not take much effort to solve this problem. The real purpose of the republic is to strike at India through Sikkim, to be precise, to force India to make bad decisions, thus creating a justification for war. The United States is well aware of this, and naturally it will not completely favor India. With the rise of its defense power, India has the ability to fight to the death with the Republic. After a few more years, the impact of a new round of military reform will be revealed. The power gap between India and the Republic will widen again. It is better to fight late than early, and it is better to fight small than to fight big. As a result, the United States will certainly not collide head-on with the Republic on the Sikkim issue. will even secretly push it. The United States is unwilling to stand out, and other Western countries will naturally sit on the sidelines.
There was not much suspense in the vote, and among the basic member states of the United Nations, some member states voted for it.
Because the restoration of a country's membership is a matter for the General Assembly, it does not need to be referred to the Security Council.
After the vote was passed, Yan Shanglong immediately told the outside world that the Republic, as a friendly neighbor of Sikkim and a responsible big country, would provide assistance to the best of its ability for the formal establishment of Sikkim.
This news suddenly became a "declaration of war" in the eyes of the Western news media.
The state must be built on the national soil, otherwise Palestine would have declared a formal state. If the Republic wants to help Sikkim establish itself, it must help Sikkim reclaim its territory and drive out the Indian army entrenched in Sikkim.
Diplomatic efforts have reached their limits, and the Republic is about to restore Sikkim's sovereign state through military action, that is, war.
At this time, the news was reported on TV.
After reading the news report, all three people in the room realized that the war was about to break out.
Hearing the sound of the phone ringing, Pei Chengyi and Yuan Chenhao turned their eyes back.
"I'm Xiang Linghui, "Okay". Xiang Linghui glanced at the two people who were staring at him, and said into the microphone, "Understood, I'll prepare it right away." 5:30 p.m. "Okay, I'll arrange it myself."
Pei Chengyi guessed that the caller must have been Yuan, or Yuan's assistant Jiao Shushan.
"A call from Yuan." Xiang Linghui let out a long breath and said, "A military meeting will be held after work in the afternoon, and the Yuan, the chairman, the prime minister, and the minister of defense will all come over, and the war department will make good preparations." β
"We haven't yet"
Xiang Linghui suppressed Yuan Chenhao's words! said: "It's just a brief report, even if you turn your face immediately, the war won't break out immediately." Meta just wants to know how prepared we are
"In that case, the command structure has to be determined." Pei Chengyi reminded Xiang Linghui.
"Only when the command structure is set can we continue the preparations for war in the future. You go back and prepare, and come up with a brief battle plan that is enough to satisfy Yuan. β
Pei Chengyi and Yuan Chenhao didn't delay any longer, and immediately got up to say goodbye.
The office of the chief of the operations department was decorated according to Pei Chengyi's previous style, and Pei Chengyi was even surprised to see that the oak desk he had used here for several years was still there, and it was still the same as before, and it looked like it had not been repainted even in a few obvious scratches. Xiang Linghui is a very old-fashioned person, and Pei Chengyi is also a bit old-fashioned. This feeling of going back to a few years ago made Pei Chengyi very comfortable, at least made him very grateful to Xiang Linghui.
Waiting for Yu Weiping to bring the tea in, Pei Chengyi asked Yuan Chenhao to close the door.
"General battle plan
"Carry Yuan, do you know Sergeant Yu Weiping?"
"Sergeant Yu?" Yuan Chenhao was a little surprised. glanced at Pei Chengyi and immediately understood. "You're asking about her relationship with Mr. Xiang, right?"
"Are they really related?"
"Of course, Sergeant Yu is Mr. Xiang's niece."
"What!?" Ji Chengyi looked very surprised.
"My niece, I also listened to others." Yuan Chenhao smiled and said, "Mr. Xiang has only one younger sister, who is more than ten years younger than him. You don't know, Mr. Xiang's hometown is very poor, and he was admitted to university because his family was too poor. He couldn't make up the tuition fees, so he joined the army. His sister has been in her hometown and is married to a farmer. A few years ago, Mr. Xiang's brother-in-law was in a car accident while working outside, Mr. Xiang took his sister and niece over, and Xiaoyu went to work in the General Staff for a few years. The hope of going to university is not very big, and Xiang always let her join the army
"That's outrageous, isn't it?"
"You mean, Mr. Xiang didn't arrange a better job for his niece?"
Pei Chengyi nodded, indicating that this was exactly what he meant. With Xiang Linghui's position, even if he can't let his niece live like a princess, how can he arrange a better job for Yu Weiping, such as working as a nurse in a military hospital, or doing secretarial things.
"You also know that Mr. Xiang is a person, and he has been worrying about this matter for a few months. I heard that Xiao Yu's work was not directly arranged by Mr. Xiang, but the director of the General Affairs Department recruited Xiao Yu behind Mr. Xiang's back. Everything else is implemented in accordance with the standards, and for this reason, Xiaoyu also went to the new barracks of the garrison to train for half a year
"Mr. Xiang is really making a fuss, does he need to be so serious about such a thing? .
"We're instigating it too. But Mr. Xiang is just like that. Who has the means? Pei Chengyi smiled bitterly and said, "Don't talk about this, you will do the evening report." β
"I'll do it?" This time it was Yuan Chenhao's turn to be surprised. This is a good opportunity to show his face in front of Yuan, if he can leave a deep impression on Yuan, and let the Premier of the State Council, that is, the future Yuan, remember himself, even if Feihuang Tengda is a little idealistic, he can also have a good future for the future.
"You're a new face, Yuan has remembered me for a long time." Pei Chengyi smiled and said, "Besides, I've done this kind of briefing countless times. The mouth is full of cocoons, and with you on top, I'm so busy. β
"General Pei, too..."
"You will also be a general next year, and sooner or later you will have to pass this hurdle, so it is better to familiarize yourself with the situation as soon as possible." Pei Chengyi took out a cigarette, gave Yuan Chenhao one first, and said, "Today is just a briefing." It's not a war meeting, you just relax and do what we discussed. β
Yuan Chenhao nodded and lit a cigarette.
When it comes to getting down to business, both of them are serious.
It was busy until noon, and when Dongfang Wen arrived, the two were still discussing some details of the combat Ji Ge fighter.
"You're busy, I'll come back later."
"Dongfang, Mr. Xiang talked to you, right?"
Dongfang Wen stopped and nodded at Pei Chengyi.
"Do you think about these questions? I'll talk to you when I get back. Xi Chengyi stood up and called Dongfang Wen outside the office, "How is the situation of my family?" β
"My sister-in-law and aunt are all good, and the little girl is also very good."
"I'm sorry for you." Pei Chengyi let out a long breath. said, "In the future, you will work in the War Department, and I will ask Yuan Chenhao to arrange an office for you." β
"General Pei, I" Dongfang Wen was a little excited.
Although the General Services Office is also a subordinate body of the General Staff, it is not at all comparable to the Operations Department. Especially for Dongfang Wen, a major officer in his early years, if he stayed in the General Affairs Office, he would be a major general in his life, and most of them would retire as colonels. If you can enter the combat department, although there is still a high possibility of retiring as a colonel, there are many more opportunities to become a general. What's more, if Pei Chengyi is the next chief of general staff, being able to work under Pei Chengyi means that he can be reused in a few years.
"Not satisfied?"
"No" no, very "I am very grateful to the generals." β
"Thank you, I just need an assistant like you, otherwise I wouldn't have looked for Mr. Xiang." Pei Chengyi smiled and patted Dongfang Wen's shoulder, "You go and pack your things and come over to report before four o'clock in the afternoon." By the way, you sent my family back, right? β
"I sent it back, and I was busy for a while."
Pei Chengyi nodded and said, "Go ahead, remember to come on time in the afternoon." β
Dongfang Wen happily returned to the General Affairs Office and packed up his office utensils.
Pei Chengyi took a turn outside, and took advantage of Yuan Chenhao's call to Yu Weiping to sneak out of the General Staff.
Back at home, Pei Chengyi went upstairs to see his mother first. I found my wife who was packing her luggage.
"Qingqing, let me tell you something."
"What's the matter?" Liu Qingqing put down the broom. "Is it my job? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already arranged for me to report back tomorrow. β
"No, it's our family." Pei Chengyi pulled his wife to the dining table and sat down. "You know, I'm a lieutenant general, according to the relevant treatment, as long as I still work in the General Staff. This house is ours. β
"The house is a trivial matter, even if you don't get it here, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will give us a set of welfare housing." Liu Qingqing was in a very good mood, "Actually, I also think that this house is a little bigger, our family is only four people, and you are often not at home, two floors up and down, you always feel empty." β
"It's not the size of a house." Pei Chengyi looked at his wife and said, "According to the standard of treatment, the General Staff arranged a nanny for me." β
"Babysitter?" Liu Qingqing immediately heard the question, "When did the army have such a good treatment, and even arranged a nanny for the general." β
"Not everyone has the treatment, my mother has been paralyzed in bed, you have to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the child is small, so the chief of the general staff gave me special treatment."
"It seems that the chief of the general staff weighs you."
"It's just that this nanny is a woman,"
"Female?"
"And it's also the niece of the Chief of the General Staff, a niece.
Liu Qingqing's eyes widened suddenly. "Cheng Yi. You're not kidding, the niece of the Chief of the General Staff works as a nanny for us, and your status is a little too high. β
"Anyway, it was sent from the army, and you know the person of the chief of the general staff, and he has never been upright. There is a clear distinction between public and private. What I want to say is, from now on,"
"Be polite in the future, don't put on a show. We must treat the sister sent by the Chief of the General Staff like a sister-in-law. Liu Qingqing immediately laughed, "Come on, you men, do all these infamous things." If you don't say it, I know what you mean. You go get busy, I know what to do. β
"Qingqing
"By the way, there's a chance to ask for that line" What's her name? β
"Yu Weiping."
"Invite Miss Yu to dinner" It's not right, anyway, please invite her to come, I know how to deal with it. β
Pei Chengyi nodded, and the stone in his heart finally landed.
After passing the wife's pass, Pei Chengyi's mood is much better. Back at the General Staff, he asked Yu Weiping to go back and pick up his wife's luggage. Pei Chengyi is not very sure what kind of drama two women can sing, but judging from his wife's reaction, there should be no big problems.
