Age of Rebirth

Tang Qiuli stayed in Yangon for a week, with an attitude of not caring about everything. He turned himself into a good son, son-in-law, husband and father. Apart from chatting with his parents-in-law and parents every day, he just accompanied There are three wives, daughters and sons. The climate in the Indochina Peninsula, even in December, is as warm as spring. Compared with Dingbian, it is naturally very different.

Taking advantage of this rare free time, Tang Qiuli took his three wives, daughter and son to visit the beautiful scenery around Yangon, and even explored places that few people usually set foot in. The small islands in the Andaman Sea and the sea in the Gulf of Thailand all left footprints of their family, which also allowed him to enjoy a rare period of good time during the years of war.

What made Tang Qiuli quite distressed was that the plan to name his son was completely aborted. For the right to name his son, the father-in-law and father, who were usually modest and amiable elder brothers, this time they were mutually accommodating. They refused to give in, and they all competed to name their grandson and grandson, each arguing for their own reasons. As for Tang Qiuli, the real father, he could only stand aside, and was deprived of the right to express his opinions.

Father-in-law Mei, I don’t know how many beards he broke, and he came up with some names, but he was still not satisfied. His father also gave his grandson a lot of names, but he still couldn’t decide. The names given by the two old people have their own characteristics. , the father-in-law is mostly bookish and pedantic, while the father's is full of Northeast rural characteristics, especially one of the several names given to his son is Tang Tiezhuang, which is very characteristic.

According to the father's explanation, the second daughter-in-law gave birth to a boy.Boy? Naturally, he has a great physique.Hard and sturdy, iron stakes.It sounded solid, Tang Qiuli was dumbfounded by this, Mei Ting, Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan's faces were flushed, it was very hard work, and they were too embarrassed to laugh out loud in front of their father-in-law.

On the contrary, father-in-law Mei, heard about it, and hurried over to veto it.Rather than calling it Iron Pile, it would be better to call it Wei Tae, which sounds domineering and stronger. For this reason, the two elder brothers argued in front of them. Later, Tang Qiuli completely gave up the right to name his son.Let the two old people toss about.

The days of reunion are always short. Zhang Qun sent a telegram to Yangon and exhausted his respectful speeches, but the core meaning was to urge Tang Qiuli to go to Chongqing immediately.To participate in the Central Standing Committee meeting, tomorrow morning, I will fly to Chongqing.The whole family should also make an arrangement.

Tang Qiuli decided to fly to Chongqing by himself.In the afternoon, parents and parents-in-law.As well as the three wives and two children, everything returned to Dingbian, which was secondary. The main thing was to let Mei Ting and Liu Xinlan help Shanhu arrange the marriage after returning to Dingbian. Ting and Liu Xinlan are the main ones.

Dearest brother, marriage is a major event in a lifetime, and I have no time to intervene. If my wives don’t help, I will feel uncomfortable, and I will never feel at ease in this life. Tang Qiuli expressed his idea and got the approval of the whole family Shan Hu grinned with joy.

In the morning, Tang Qiuli bid farewell to joining, took Shanhu and a group of special guards on the plane, and did not let his wives go to the airport to see him off. The special plane took off from Yangon Airport, headed north, and landed at Chongqing Airport to meet them. It was Zhang Qun, Secretary-General of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, the number one think tank of Chairman Jiang, Chen Cheng, Minister of the Military Order Department, and Zhang Zhizhong, Minister of the Military and Political Department. The scene was very lively.

However, Tang Qiuli also noticed that the security at the airport was heavy and there were no reporters present. It stands to reason that he is now a national hero who wiped out Japan, and he returned home with a reputation. It is intriguing for the government to handle it so low-key!

He also noticed that Zhang Zhizhong, the head of the military and political department, who can be regarded as an old friend, deliberately avoided his gaze. It seemed that there was something unspeakable, and Tang Qiuli had no intention of asking. Zhang Qun, "The military commission has sent an urgent message urging me to return to China to attend the meeting of the Central Standing Committee. Secretary-General Zhang, it is convenient for me to disclose something. Is the main topic of this meeting of the Central Standing Committee?"

Zhang Qun always smiled gently but mysteriously and said: "Vice Chairman Tang, please forgive Zhang Qun for being inconvenient to disclose in advance. This is Chairman Jiang's order. However, Chairman Jiang also ordered you to come back from the Japanese battlefield. , no other activities will be arranged in the morning. You can take a rest at the hotel. In the afternoon, Chairman Jiang wants to meet with you alone and ask for your opinions on some important matters. At that time, a car from the chairman's attendant will come to pick you up !"

Tang Qiuli knew that Zhang Qun, an old fox, couldn't get any words out of him, so he simply kept silent, but in his heart, he felt a little disgusted with Jiang's behavior, "What the hell are you doing? Mystery! Could it be Or do you want to meddle in the affairs of Japan?" If this is the case, then there is no need to be polite.

After arriving at the hotel where he was staying, Tang Qiuli told Shanhu, "Huzi, keep the door tight. Anyone who comes to see me, no matter who they are, will block them. I don't have time to make false claims with these big bosses!"

Shan Hu was delighted, and said: "What if it's a gift? They won't even get in the way?"

"You just accept the gift for me, and I won't see you!" Tang Qiuli said simply.

With the prestige of destroying Japan's victory, Tang Qiuli returned to Chongqing with unprecedented fame and reputation. Big bosses from various factions with their own ideas flocked to see Vice-Committee Tang one after another. Chairman, the big bosses are all good people, and they are very sensitive to the new political trend of the Republic of China. Vice Chairman Tang returned strongly, "I'm afraid the Republic of China is about to change!"

At this time, whoever does not introduce the situation and show goodwill in advance, in case the young and energetic Vice Chairman Tang replaces Chairman Jiang and ascends to the No.1 throne in the Republic of China, don't doubt it. Behind this strength and prestige, there are millions of heroes in battle, and they definitely have the ability to change the political world of the Republic of China.

Regardless of the fact that Vice Chairman Tang has been fighting overseas for the past few years, he basically doesn't care about current affairs in China, but who dares to ignore him, then, calling in advance by himself is a political investment that is sure to make money. At least, it shows that To change one's own attitude, to be intimate, to win a better future for oneself and one's own faction in the political arena of the Republic of China in the future.

Therefore, in front of the hotel where Tang Qiuli was staying, there was unprecedented excitement, with heavy traffic and dignitaries gathering. If there was no previous order, Tang Qiuli might not even be able to eat lunch. Shanhu is a competent door god, no matter what Whoever it is, treat it all, you can take it with you, accept the gift, and then please leave. Vice Chairman Tang is unwell and needs to rest.

The hustle and bustle outside the hotel did not affect Tang Qiuli's mood. He had a big appetite, had a peaceful meal, took a nice hot bath, and then threw himself on the bed and fell asleep soundly. , After waking up in the afternoon, I feel refreshed.

More than half an hour later, the special car from the chairman's attendant's office arrived at the entrance of the hotel on time, and two officers with the rank of colonel came up. They were the adjutants of the chairman's attendant's office. official residence.

The official residence of Generalissimo Jiang in Huangshan, Chongqing, remains the same as it was a few years ago, with stone paths and lush green trees, but there are more traces of time, but there are more plainclothes guards in Chinese tunic suits, and their figures flash in from time to time. throughout.

Zhang Qun personally greeted him at the door, exchanged some pleasantries, and went straight into Chairman Jiang's study without too much nonsense.

The tall and thin figure of Generalissimo Jiang had been waiting in the study for a long time. When Tang Qiuli came in dressed in casual clothes, he greeted Tang Qiuli in a complicated manner with a smile on his thin cheeks: "Qiuli, we have been apart for a few years. , your demeanor is still the same, but I am old!" In the words, there was quite a sigh of emotion.

Chairman Jiang's mood is indeed complicated. At that time, when this brat first entered the customs, he had to be sheltered by himself, but after seven or eight years, he grew to be equal to himself, no, enough to throw himself off the Republic of China No. The existence of the 1 throne, and the large territory overseas, has destroyed Japan with one hand. It has reached the point where I need to be afraid and frightened.

"I'm sorry, chairman!" Tang Qiuli responded calmly. After taking his seat, he asked straightforwardly: "Chairman, I don't know why Qiuli was urgently called back to China? What is the agenda of the Central Standing Committee meeting? , the chairman summoned him in advance, what instructions do you have?" He was really impatient, and he was playing Tai Chi pushing hands with Chairman Jiang.

Generalissimo Jiang's face suddenly changed a little. Tang Qiuli's questions were implied to be persuasive, and there was no respect in his words. Let me ask, in the national government, which official would dare to talk to him like this? Talk for yourself, only Tang Qiuli!Li Zi is arrogant and aggressive, really hateful!

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Zhang Qun hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "Vice Chairman Tang, Chairman Jiang and you are the pillars of the National Government. It is a blessing for the country and a good thing for the country to reach a consensus in advance for any major issues." Within the comrades of our party, there is a fine tradition of consulting with each other on major issues!"

Zhang Qun turned the situation around, and Chairman Jiang didn't want to show Tang Qiuli's face anymore, but he still said, "Qiuli is still young and energetic! His words are aggressive, but I know Qiuli." Temper, I'm afraid it will be misunderstood by outsiders!"

Regarding this, Tang Qiuli smiled indifferently, did not comment, there was no need to go around in circles, and went straight to the point, he just wanted to know, what was Jiang's plan for meeting him in advance before the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China?

Tang Qiuli's words were not tough, and his tone was gentle, but he forced Generalissimo Jiang into a corner and had to face up to the problem. The Republic of China has no worries about external aggression, and since external aggression has been eliminated, it should be a time to vigorously build the country and develop people's livelihood and people's livelihood, but internal worries still exist, I don't know what Qiuli thinks about this?"
