Chapter 187: The Hongmen Banquet
As a Ye Haodong-style cattle man, he needs to be bold and dry, and he needs to be as careful as a hair. No one will swear to follow the small family. Carelessness soon dies without a place to be buried.
Qin Rui wanted to follow Ye Haodong into the car, but was stopped by Ye Haodong and sent to Hu Xiaoqiao's car under the pretext of doing business. The Maybach driven by Gangzi pulled Ye Haodong to follow the jeep in front of him and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Ye Haodong sat in the car and looked at the jeep in front of him thoughtfully. The young man just now claimed to be Qiao Yunsong, surnamed Qiao? Peng Aihua, the main person in charge, was most familiar with me, and it was unreasonable to send a small major to show up without letting him come forward.
"Gangzi, bring all the guns you have with you, let's not separate for a while, and call Huzi and ask him to bring someone over."
As soon as Poly noticed through the rearview mirror and the side mirrors, there were already at least four jeeps following around their car.
Ye Haodong's eyes became extremely sharp, "These people are all soldiers, and those who can be sent out to deal with us must be first-class, depending on their meaning, as long as we go to the destination with them honestly, they won't do it, just now that Qiao Yunsong told me that he was sent by the General Staff, and I was already suspicious at that time, so I sent Qin Ruisi and Hu Xiaoqiao to leave, and the entire convention and exhibition center is an entrance, they chose this time to send an invitation to us, obviously fully prepared, I estimate that there is definitely more than a little bit of strength staring at us now, I think these people are so deliberate to arrange this opportunity to meet, it is definitely not for the purpose of killing me Ye Haodong with one shot, they still need my face, the disparity between the strength of the enemy and us is huge, and we have not yet reached the point where we are trying to meet them. ”
Seeing the subtlety, this is Ye Haodong's ability. A smile of admiration appeared on Gangzi's face. According to Ye Haodong's intentions, he called Huzi. Ye Haodong thought for a while and said: "Make another call to Peng Aihua, be polite in wording, and be a junior courtesy." Let's talk about what we're going through now. ”
There are three main forces of the Gongwei Jing Division. Yenching Military Region, Garrison and Second Artillery Corps Missile Air Defense Garrison Division. The Yenching Military Region is a large military region-level unit, the garrison is a corps-level unit but directly under the central government, and the Air Defense Garrison Division of the Second Artillery Corps is directly under the command of the Second Artillery Command. The most powerful of these three forces is undoubtedly the Yanjing Military Region, in which the famous 38th Army is located. The most prominent of the three forces and the most well-equipped were the garrisons. Directly under the central government, his strength is inevitable. And the most transcendent position is the air defense garrison division of the Second Artillery.
There are five chief and deputy commanders of the Yanjing Military Region. Commander He Hongwei and political commissar Qian Yongjiang both have the rank of general, and both of them are the hardcore descendants of today. Among the three deputy commanders, Chen Guanghui has the rank of major general and concurrently serves as the commander of the 38 th Group Army. The other two are Vice Premier Gao Yifan's younger brother Gao Yifang and Zheng Tongwen, both of whom have the rank of lieutenant general. Gao Yifang was transferred to the Yanjing Military Region more than ten years ago when he was the commander of a division of the 39th Army, and the division he brought with him was already one of the divisions directly under the garrison. Zheng Tongwen was born in the old 28th Army of the Yanjing Military Region, and belonged to the landlord of the Yanjing Military Region.
After the jeep went all the way west out of the downtown area, it finally took Ye Haodong to a place where the clear water reflected the green mountains. This is a sanatorium and guest house in the military district. The kind that is not open to the public. After getting out of the car, Ye Haodong and Poly just followed Qiao Yunfei, through a shady corridor made of lush grape vines, the courtyard was so deep that Ye Haodong couldn't remember passing through several layers of courtyard, and finally came to a pavilion with ventilation on all sides under the shade of green trees. At a table of the Big Eight Immortals carved out of stone, dressed in casual clothes, with a black face and a short beard, Zheng Tongwen, who was in his fifties, was waiting there.
"You are Mr. Ye Haodong, please forgive us for inviting you in this way, I hope you don't mind too much, wait a minute, you will know that today's meeting is good for both you and me, first of all, I will introduce myself, Zheng Tongwen, Zheng Chenggong's Zheng, comrade's Tong, civilized Wen."
Qiao Yunsong added: "Commander Zheng is the deputy commander of our Yanjing Military Region, and in his capacity, we entertained Mr. Ye in this way, I think this is enough to express our sincerity to Mr. Zheng." ”
This kid can still speak so calmly on such an occasion, and it seems that his identity is not simple.
A deputy commander is not worth shocking to Ye Haodong, who is used to seeing big shots. He secretly wondered what it would be for this Qiao Yunsong and Zheng Tongwen to find him, and said haha: "As soon as I am a businessman who does small business, where can I dare to care in front of a big man like you, inviting me Ye as your identity is to give me a long face surnamed Ye, we are too late to be grateful, how dare you have any ideas." After speaking, no one needed to let him, he walked into the pavilion and sat down.
Zheng Tongwen instructed someone to serve tea to Ye Haodong. He smiled slightly and sat down, "Mr. Ye, I'm a soldier who won't beat around the bush when I speak, so I have something to say." ”
Ye Haodong smiled: "You just have a bit of a roundabout way of entertaining, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it, I don't have much choice now, as long as I can do it, I will definitely try my best to cooperate." ”
Zheng Tongwen's expression remained unchanged, and he seemed unaware of Ye Haodong's sarcasm in and out of his words. "I've heard that someone has recently been investigating the Pingcheng mine disaster five years ago?"
Ye Haodong lowered his head to taste the tea, but did not answer.
"The dust has settled on that matter, right and wrong have long been defined, the tone of the central government is very unified, some people just want to lift the lid without doing their best, so as to do something out, it is really a foolish approach, Mr. Ye is a smart person, an overseas giant businessman who is valued by the General Staff, do you say that the person who does this is stupid?" Zheng Tongwen's eyes shot a provocative cold light, and his face approached Ye Haodong.
Ye Haodong didn't raise his eyelids, and said lightly: "Stupid? If there was no intervention by Secretary Ma of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Fu Weiping's father and daughter would have evaporated from the world, right? Can you say that Secretary Ma's approach is also stupid? If it weren't for Premier Hu's words, the two fathers and daughters would have been cornered at this moment, right? Can you say that Premier Hu is also stupid? There is justice in the world, they are all officials who have a whole body, and it is inconvenient to do something, I, Ye Haodong, am a single person, I want to take care of it if I can't see it, I won't tell you, the person in your mouth who is not self-sufficient and stupid is me, you still directly fished it out, say what do you want. ”
"I heard that you are Xie Runze's godson?" Zheng Tongwen jumped the topic to the faction one step at a time. Involving the two Standing Committee members of the Politburo, Zheng Tongwen didn't want to talk about this topic more.
Ye Haodong nodded. "If you have something to say, you can say it."
Zheng Tongwen motioned for the secretary to serve the food. "Xie Runze went to visit your grandfather a few days ago, was it you who built the bridge?"
Ye Haodong continued to nod.
"Ye Lao is an old-timer who has made great contributions to the country, and he has suffered a lot of grievances in the past few years, many people know these things, including Vice Premier Gao and Secretary Qiao of the Secretariat, they also mentioned a few days ago that they were going to visit Ye Lao, but they were worried about whether it would be too disturbing, no, let me ask you first if Ye Lao has leisure, and find a suitable opportunity for the two of them to visit it, I heard that two days is Ye Lao's 88th birthday, I think this opportunity is quite appropriate, what do you say?"
It's time for the meat part. Ye Haodong thought to himself. There's nothing hesitating about that. If he could accept to cooperate with these scum who have brought disaster to the country and the people, Ye Haodong would not have today's situation.
Ye Haodong waved his hand: "It's just a small-scale family banquet, it's all family members, what kind of identity is Vice Premier Gao and Secretary Qiao, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”
Zheng Tongwen: "So this matter is not negotiable?" ”
Ye Haodong was categorical: "Yes, our grandson has a stinky mouth, a black heart, and can't climb to Vice Premier Gao and Secretary Qiao." ”
The staff at the guest house had already started to serve the food, Zheng Tongwen glanced at the time, and said, "It's time to eat, let's talk while eating, let your brother come to the side to eat." ”
Gangzi said coldly: "No need, thank you Deputy Commander Zheng for your concern, I ate on the way here." ”
Zheng Tongwen didn't ask Gangzi to leave again, and generously ordered the banquet to start. didn't mention anything else at the banquet, but chatted with Ye Haodong about kung fu with great interest. Speaking of happiness, Zheng Tongwen introduced a person, and wanted this person to come out and perform it.
Ye Haodong thought of the famous allusion, the Hongmen Banquet. I laughed secretly in my heart, this situation is really a bit like that today, Liu Bang was born as a gangster, and Ye Haodong himself was also born as a little ruffian, but Zheng Tongwen, a middle-aged and elderly black fat man, is far worse than Xiang Yu. You have Xiang Zhuang dancing sword, and I still have Fan Xu's body.
"Oh? My favorite thing to watch is the kung fu show, since Deputy Commander Zheng has such a master at hand, why not please come out and show your hands? ”
Zheng Tongwen said in his heart, it's just right, I don't have to make excuses.
A middle-aged man with a capable figure followed Qiao Yunsong from the backyard and came to the courtyard to salute Zheng Tongwen with a standard military salute. "Liao Zhenyang, the colonel of the 28th Infantry Army Teaching Regiment, is ordered to come!" Zheng Tongwen smiled and introduced Ye Haodong and him. Then he said to Liao Zhenyang: "Today is to invite you to come over and perform a few tricks, it's not a military task, don't be too nervous, be careful if you make a mistake for a while, if something happens, it's okay to hurt me, if you hurt our guest Mr. Ye, it's not good." ”
The threat in this sentence is already very explicit. Ye Haodong noticed that this courtyard was already surrounded by snipers, and in such an environment, his chances of leaving this place were very slim. In his heart, he had already begun to ponder whether to agree to Zheng Tongwen's request for the time being, but he felt that the matter would not be solved so simply, they must have a special way not to let himself regret it, so let's take one step at a time.
"Before I came, I was with Secretary Ma's daughter and Premier Hu's niece and grandson, you said that if I disappeared from now on, would it cause you a lot of trouble?"
Zheng Tongwen didn't smile, "Well, it's a lot of trouble, but it's better than the trouble caused by your disappearance." ”
The two looked at each other and laughed together.
Liao Zhenyang first performed a big pole, a red tasseled pole hung a fifty-pound stone mill in front of his head, so that he played whirring and pouring wind, and the red shadow was filled, and the people present could hardly see his figure clearly. It is extremely difficult to do such a skill without the level of a master of chemical strength. And his most powerful skill is the flying needle piercing the glass stunt, the small sewing needle was thrown out by him with a shake of his hand, it can actually pierce the thick glass, and can do it where to hit, God is perfect.
Ye Haodong clapped his hands and turned to Zheng Tongwen and said: "As soon as your upper lip touches your lower lip, you want me to leave Xie Runze and come together with you, I don't sound very reliable about this matter, I haven't seen anyone with the surname Gao and the surname Qiao, how can you let me rest assured of your sincerity?" Don't tell me that just by relying on that little cub named Qiao Yunsong, you can lead the Qiao family to form an alliance with me Ye Haodong, do you say that's the truth? ”
Zheng Tongwen secretly made a slightly calmer gesture to Liao Zhenyang in the field, and motioned for the secretary to go out, it seemed that he was sending him to see someone, probably asking someone for Ye Haodong's request. Ye Haodong guessed in his heart.
Footsteps were heard in the backyard, and a middle-aged man in a lieutenant general's uniform walked out of the room.
Saying that he is middle-aged is really because of his eye-catching white hair and the rank of lieutenant general, if you just look at his appearance, someone will believe him if he is a little doll. The pink little round face has no beard, the whole face is young and demonic, and the skin looks like a seven or eight-year-old boy, but this person has an extraordinary attitude and a bit of treacherous masculinity.
"Gao Yifang, Vice Premier Gao Yifan of the Central Committee is a brother, Mr. Ye, I think you should believe in our sincerity now."
Gangzi whispered in Ye Haodong's ear: "This person has at least grandmaster-level kung fu. ”
Without waiting for Ye Haodong to answer, a sudden change interrupted the atmosphere of the scene. A loud bang occurred just as the higher side appeared. Everyone watched in a flash, only to see a large chimney made of blue bricks smashing into the high side that had just appeared. In the dust, Gao Fang was slowly retracting his right fist that had smashed the chimney. Screamed: "People are in Nanfangpo, this time we must not let him run again." ”
The sniper on the slope to the south had been killed at some point. A large, one-eyed and bearded man was standing there as he broke off the chimney on the roof and threw it at the top of his house.
