At the welcome banquet in the evening, Wang Maoru brought four wives and four children to attend, each of whom was very eye-catching, especially Wang Maoru, who was tall and handsome in military uniform, which amazed the Chinese and foreign reporters present. At the banquet, in addition to the gentry and celebrities in the northeast, there were foreign consuls, journalists, and big businessmen, and Wang Maoru was a little surprised that there were representatives of Jewish merchant groups here. During the banquet, the representative of the Jewish merchant group, Al Anderson. On behalf of the Jewish merchants, Eisenberg expressed his protection of Russian Jews in China to Wang Maoru, and said sincerely: "Your Excellency, on behalf of the Jews of the East, I thank the Marshal for his patronage of the Jews of the East, and I hope that more commercial and trade cooperation can be carried out in the territory of His Excellency the Marshal." ”

Wang Maoru had long wanted to cooperate with the Jewish business group, but in the past, his political influence was not enough to influence the Jewish business group, but now seeing that they took the initiative to win over, he naturally said happily: "I myself and the local government I represent also very much hope that the Jewish business group can invest and build in the northeast, and I will give you the most preferential policy." At the same time, I have noticed that many countries in the world are rejecting Jews......" Speaking of this, Eisenberg's face was helpless and indignant, and Wang Maoru continued: "But I assure you that the armed forces I represent are absolutely sincere in accepting Jews, and can even issue you a national certificate for exemption from inspection, so that the persecuted Jews can become Jewish Chinese." In fact, I want the Jews to bring science, education, culture, art, and religion to my local government. ”

Eisenberg was surprised: "Marshal, what do you mean by saying that you support Judaism?" ”

Wang Maoru said: "I am not averse to any religion. I know that the major religions in Europe have rejected Judaism since ancient times, but in my territory I allow Judaism to preach freely. ”

Eisenberg excitedly said: "Thank you, thank you, Your Excellency the Great Marshal, I think the Jews will be grateful to you." ”

Wang Maoru said: "I also hope to be able to cooperate with the Jews in many aspects. The two looked at each other and smiled, acknowledging each other's intentions to cooperate. This can be regarded as the first step in the exchanges between the two sides, the first step into the Jewish consortium with the United States, and the first step to attract American funds into the Northeast. Only by allowing more American capital to enter the Northeast will Japan not dare to attack the Northeast, and only if the Northeast is stabilized. Only then can he unify China.

After the banquet, Wang Maoru and his wife rested early, and he slept very unsteadily, lying on the bed tossing and turning. Ulan Tuya, who was lying on one side, saw that he couldn't sleep. Lying on top of him asked, "What's the matter, husband?" ”

"Someone's going to kill me." Wang Maoru sighed.

"Then we'll kill him first." Ulan Tuya's light flashed, and the Mongolian woman would never drag the mud and water when she should be dry, "If you want to kill a tiger, you have to kill it before it grows up." Don't hesitate, we Mongolian men have never shown mercy to the enemy, and even ruined their three tribes. ”

Wang Maoru patted her fragrant shoulder and said with a smile: "You are right, you should be more decisive and ruthless." ”

Many people in Shenyang did not sleep that night, and Guo Songling was one of them. He fidgeted. There are always some things in his heart, his wife Han Shuxiu asked him what was wrong, Guo Songling didn't dare to say his heart and plans, so he told his wife that he had something to go to see in the military department. When he came to the General Staff, he first went to the General Staff to see if there was anything wrong, and then returned to his training office building. In addition to serving as deputy chief of the General Staff, he also served as the head of the training department, responsible for the formation of the new army and its preparations.

As soon as he entered the gate, Guo Songling heard an officer talking, and Guo Yingzhou was mentioned in the words, so he walked over and asked, everyone saw that it was Deputy Chief of Staff Guo. Knowing that this person led the army strictly, they didn't dare to speak anymore. Guo Songling asked, "What happened?" ”

A small officer said: "Pu Ding, director of the Archives Division of the General Military Affairs Department, has been promoted, and his original position is held by Guo Yingzhou, commander of the 40th Brigade. We are talking about Director Pu Dingpu in the future, and he will definitely rise to the top. Guo Songling inquired carefully and turned out that Guo Yingzhou, the commander of the 40th Brigade, was transferred to the General Military Affairs Department as the director of the Archives Division, and Guo Yingzhou was Guo Songling's biggest military supporter, which couldn't help but arouse his vigilance.

Lu Hexu, the adjutant who had been following him, saw that he was uneasy, so he made him a cup of hot tea and said, "Chief of Staff, you still haven't slept at this time?" Madame is waiting for you at home. ”

Guo Songling said: "Xiao Lu, how long have you been following me?" ”

Lu Hexu scratched his head and smiled: "I have been following the chief of staff for nearly three years. ”

Guo Songling said: "Three years, how will I take you in the past three years?" ”

Lu Hexu said: "The chief of staff treats me as his own very well, and my subordinates are grateful." ”

Guo Songling smiled: "In this way, how do you treat me?" ”

Lu Hexu said: "I can't speak, but in my heart, the chief of staff is like my brother." ”

Guo Songling laughed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's good, even if I don't trust the whole world, but Xiao Lu, you and I trust." ”

Lu Hexu sneered and didn't speak, and reminded after a while: "Chief of Staff, the water is cold." ”

Guo Songling took a sip of water, which was indeed a little cold, put it aside, and said: "I have been in the army for 20 years, in order to unify this divided country, in order to make my country a strong country and not be enslaved by foreign powers. But I feel that the more I go the farther and farther away from the path I want to take, the more and more I go apathy. ”

Lu Hexuqi said: "Chief of Staff, I don't understand, why are you going farther and farther?" ”

Guo Songling said: "Speaking of which, because of Xiushuai, he is relying more and more on the Japanese. When it came to Xiushuai, Lu Hexu was silent, and Guo Songling continued: "Alas, Xiushuai is now inseparable from the Japanese, I am afraid that one day Xiushuai will become a puppet of the Japanese, and I am afraid that one day Xiushuai will become a Japanese...... Alas! Xiushuai's talent has always been appreciated by the Japanese, and it must be known that if Xiushuai defects to the Japanese, it will be a disaster for China. ”

Lu Hexu said: "Didn't the chief of staff persuade Xiushuai? ”

Guo Songling said: "Persuade Xiushuai? Why haven't you been, it's just that Xiushuai will win every battle, and his position is getting higher and higher, and now it's becoming more and more difficult to listen to opinions. But it's getting more and more dangerous for me to watch the show, Xiao Lu. Do you know? The Japanese Prime Minister actually invited him to visit Japan, and invited the local government warlord to visit Japan, which shows that Xiushuai has completely taken refuge in the Japanese! ”

"Ahh Lu Hexu exclaimed in surprise.

Guo Songling said: "That's it, Xiao Lu, you told Secretary Zhang that you would pass on the news of the Japanese Prime Minister's invitation to Xiushuai to him, hoping to bring Xiushuai back, so that he would not get closer and closer to Japan." Become a national sinner. ”

"Yes." Lu Hexu said solemnly.

"Ah......h

Endless screams came from the dungeon, and in another dungeon, Zhang Siheng sat weakly on the dry grass. Wearing a pair of quilts on his body, the cold on his body can't be stopped, not because of the cold weather. Rather, they feel scared. Last night, Zhang Siheng, who was hiding in Shenyang in Piaoxiang Courtyard, was caught overnight in an underground prison near Huanggutun, and was ignored for a night, but screams kept coming from all around, making him unable to sleep all night out of anxiety.

When he was arrested at first, Zhang Siheng also shouted that I was a central official, you dare to move me, you will die if you move me, I am your chief of staff Guo's guest, don't you want to live? But after being thrown into prison. In particular, there was a sound of flesh and skin whipping from next door, which frightened him, who had never suffered from flesh and skin, and this fear lasted all night, making him a little devastated.

He sat on the dead grass, and all the fears he had had before suddenly reminded him of the story of his childhood. His hometown is from Songjiang Prefecture, Jiangsu. Later, Songjiang Prefecture was renamed Shanghai, and many foreigners occupied the concession here, occupying the Huangpu River, which became one of the richest county seats. But when he was young, it was a very poor place, in his memory. When he was a child, he went down to the river every morning to touch mud snails and catch yellow eels.

When I was a child, I used to look at a novelty in the foreigner's shop, drooling at the big apple behind the glass, and at that time he told himself that I must eat a bite of the red apple when I grow up. When he grew up, he realized that it was a fake, an apple model, otherwise it would not have been placed in the glass window for a few years without breaking. The foreigners who passed by saw him drooling and lying on the glass window looking at the apple model, and they all laughed, and the Indian Ah San, who was the gatekeeper, liked to chase these Chinese children with a wooden stick. In Zhang Siheng's memory, he was chased by Indians many times when he was a child, and he was beaten many times, so in his heart, he hated these Indian Asan very much. And when he heard that Wang Maoru led the army to massacre more than 1,000 Indian rebels in Malacca, he drank bitterly.

My favorite food is still the drunken mud snail from my hometown, he thought to himself. Thinking about it, Zhang Siheng fell asleep, his mouth seemed to have the taste of his hometown drunken mud snail, smacking his lips, and suddenly a big mouth woke him up, Zhang Siheng suddenly saw four strong men standing around him. He opened his mouth to speak, but was hit on the ground by a big man's mouth, and heard the man say, "Take it away." Two men grabbed him by the hair and took him to another chamber.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhang Siheng's feet immediately softened, because the smell of blood in the room and the smell of barbecue on the brazier made him vomit disgustingly, and a big man who dragged him felt that he vomited very disgustingly, and kicked him on the body, kicking him to the ground. Zhang Siheng immediately rolled to the side, lay on the ground and cried: "I said, I said, I said everything, don't beat me, don't beat me." ”

The torturers looked at each other and said depressedly, "You said it all? ”

"Yes, I said it all, I said it all, don't hit me, don't hit me."

"Damn, if you meet an eye-opener, it's definitely not a Bolshevik." A torturer complained in a whisper.

Another middle-aged man in a suit moved a chair and sat in front of him and said, "Say it, tell me everything you know." ”

"Don't kill me." Zhang Siheng begged for mercy.

The middle-aged man in the suit said with a smile: "You have a lot of value, I won't kill you." ”

"Are you going to kill me after I finish explaining?" Zhang Siheng's voice was full of fear.

The man shook his head and said, "You confessed, that is, you betrayed the original organization, since you have betrayed the original organization, why don't you give us your life and be our spy?" Those who know the times are Junjie, we are serving Xiushuai, you also know what kind of person Xiushuai is, he is the generalissimo of the 300,000 Northeast Army behind him, and he will inevitably be the one who will unify China in the future. In other words, he is the orthodox government of China, and you know that this is going to the light? ”

Zhang Siheng gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said, "Okay, since you take me in, I'll say it all." (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )rv
