381【To PNG】

For the team that went to the South Pacific to welcome back the remains of the martyrs, Wang Zijun had already guessed that the authorities would send a government official to lead the team, but Xiangdao would not be such a team.

The person sent by Chiang Ching-kuo was actually He Yingqin, a veteran of the Kuomintang who initiated the Southern Anhui Incident, served as the director of education of the Whampoa Military Academy, the minister of defense of the Republic of China during the civil war, and accepted Japan's surrender on behalf of the Chinese government.

But imagining, He Yingqin is the best candidate.

After the defeat of the Kuomintang in the War of Liberation, He Yingqin, who served as Minister of National Defense, first fled to Hong Kong, and then came to Taiwan from Hong Kong. After arriving in Taiwan, He Yingqin lived in seclusion on Guling Street and "thought about it behind closed doors", and had no face to see people. In 1950, Chiang Kai-shek became president again, and he ran out to make a comeback, but Yijing had no part in it. (This gentleman's relationship with Chiang Kai-shek was deceitful, and he did not deal with the powerful Chen Cheng, and when Chiang first arrived in Taipei, many places had to rely on Chen Cheng.) )

Since the 50s, He Yingqin has held various big and powerless positions in the party, government and army, and has become popular among the people. One moment to establish an association, the other to establish an organization, Chiang Kai-shek also made trouble by him, and occasionally the old Chiang personally served as the president of these associations, and He Yingqin was the vice president.

After moving to Taiwan, Chen Cheng, who had infinite scenery, died of illness, Bai Chongxi also died unexplained, and the veterans of the Kuomintang from all walks of life either died or were desolate and lonely at night. But He Yingqin, who has lost power in the political arena, lives the most chic and comfortable. In his later years, his "official business" was nothing more than holding meetings to meet the occasion, making speeches, attending marriage witnesses, ribbon cutting, funerals, etc. Most of the rest of the time is spent playing bridge, hunting, golfing, planting flowers and trees, etc. When there is any major event, he has to come out and shout twice to join in the fun.

Now this trip, let He Yingqin lead the team, no matter from which aspect it is very suitable.

Taipei Songshan Airport.

Gu Zhutong took He Yingqin's hand and said: "Respectfully, this trip to Nanyang, before the grave, give me a bowl of wine to these soldiers." It's a pity that my body has always been tough, and at this time, I was sick and couldn't travel thousands of miles. ”

"Brother Gu, don't worry, I will bring your heart." He Yingqin said.

The situation between the two at this time is similar, but although Gu Zhutong is idle, his disciples have many powerful figures, which are much more influential than He Yingqin. Both are physically tough, energetic, often participate in social activities, and have a deep friendship in recent years.

This time, in addition to Wang Zijun and others, there were more than 20 Hong Kong and Taiwan reporters and 30 volunteers who had undergone strict scrutiny.

The Taiwanese in the 70s were much more politically sensitive and enthusiastic than later generations, and the authorities did not dare to squeak with the outside world, such as Ma Ying-jeou and others. For example, in the case of Scarborough Shoal, which was contested between the mainland and the Philippines in later generations, more than 30 people from the Philippines went to the island to plant flags two years ago, and Chiang Kai-shek, who was on his hospital bed, immediately condemned it and threatened to use the army. The Philippine government was so frightened that it hurriedly came out to clarify, saying that the planting of the flag at Scarborough Shoal was purely a civilian act and had nothing to do with the authorities.

Outside the airport, many veterans and citizens came to see them off, and the scene was very lively. He Yingqin is a person who can put on a show, and immediately said something full of enthusiasm, vowing to bring back the remains of the anti-Japanese martyrs, please rest assured that all compatriots immediately attracted a round of applause and cheers.

This is the first time Wang Zijun has met He Yingqin and Gu Zhutong, and the impact left is that both of them are old foxes, and their eyes are so deep that they seem to be able to see people through.

"This is Wang Xiaoyou, I often see your name in the newspaper." Gu Zhutong held Wang Zijun's hand and said with a "kind and kind" smile. This person was a loyal confidant of the old Chiang, and Chiang Ching-kuo was able to quickly grasp the situation after Chiang Kai-shek's death, and he made great efforts.

"A little thin, I don't dare to pollute the ears of the old general, I'm ashamed," Wang Zijun said respectfully.

"Haha, you are not a thin name, you won an award in Hollywood, and won glory for the Chinese." Gu Zhutong patted Wang Zijun on the shoulder and said, "Young man, do a good job"

"Follow the teachings of the old general, Zijun will remember it in his heart." Wang Zijun said carefully.

He Yingqin on the side said: "The plane is about to take off, Brother Gu, let's go first." ”

"Righteous people, have a good trip" Gu Zhu hugged his fists with everyone.

Everyone returned the favor and thanked them.

Papua New Guinea was originally a British colony, but after World War II, the United Nations was given to Australia as a trusteeship, and it was not until September last year that it officially became an independent state.

Originally, there were many overseas Chinese here, but due to the unclear political prospects and living environment after the establishment of the new country, most of the local overseas Chinese went to live in Australia. ,

Before Wang Zijun and others made their trip, the Taiwan authorities sent a note to PNG and Australia, saying that they would cooperate with the operation.

At this time, Papua New Guinea, if you take a plane, only opened a route to Australia. Wang Zijun and his entourage had to fly from Taipei to Hong Kong, then from Hong Kong to Australia, and finally from Australia to PNG, and then take a car to Labul. (The time of the eruption of the Rabul volcano is actually later, so don't go into it for children.) )

After getting on the plane, He Yingqin first talked to the veteran named Qiu Sheng in Hong Kong and cordially asked him about his current situation.

Wang Zijun listened from the side, sincerely admiring the old fox's social level. Qiu Sheng was originally a little nervous when facing He Yingqin, and he was a little vigilant, but He Yingqin only said a few words, and after greeting the warmth, he recalled some past events, and quickly shortened the distance between the two.

In less than ten minutes, the old man Qiu Sheng, who had only been a big soldier, said nothing to He Yingqin, and completely regarded him as his own person.

Flying is tiring, especially with the elderly. After arriving in Sydney, the team stopped and rested overnight in the hotel that had been contacted by Yijing in the morning.

The next day, they flew directly to PNG and then took a bus to their destination.

Wang Zijun's speech at the news conference a few days ago is not completely false, because after he came from Singapore last time, he paid people to go to Rabul to find the location of the cemetery, and it only took half a month to find the cemetery.

Now, the person who was paid to hire is also in the team, acting as a guide to lead the way.

The roads in Papua New Guinea are in terrible condition, and apart from the cities built when Britain was famous, there are no other places that can compare to ancient Chinese society.

No way, before the Western colonizers came, it was still a primitive society.

Upon learning of the arrival of Wang Zijun and others, some local overseas Chinese also spontaneously accompanied them, and together with the special reception personnel sent by the PNG government, the team was close to 100 people.

The car was bumpy on the bumpy road, He Yingqin looked at the desolate scene outside, and sighed: "It is really a shame for my generation to let these anti-Japanese martyrs bury their bones in a wild place." Zijun, you have done a great thing this time. ”

"Old general, your twilight body, thousands of miles to welcome back the bones of the scorching sun, is worthy of learning from our juniors." Wang Zijun complimented. In the past two days, he and He Yingqin have gradually become familiar with each other. How to say it, this is too good at acting, this kind of performance is deep in the bones, and he always talks with compassion - hypocritical politician attributes.

If He Yingqin was really so enthusiastic and patriotic, how could he have helped Okamura Ningji escape the Nanjing trial and send him back to Japan amid the scolding of the people.

Although He Yingqin could hear that Wang Zijun was really patting him on the back, but now that he has no power and power, he is still very useful to the horses, and asked: "Zijun, are you interested in joining the Chinese Scout Association?" ”

"The Boy Scouts?" Wang Zijun has never heard of it.

"Yes." As soon as He Yingqin explained, Wang Zijun finally figured out what the Chinese Boy Scouts were.

The idea of boy scouts first arose in the West, and later the government of the Republic of China also learned from it and selected to train scouts. 11 The following are called Cub Scouts, those between the ages of 11 and 18 are called Boy Scouts, and those over the age of 18 are called Young Scouts. These scouts pass various tests and assessments, and then rigorously train them to learn various manners and cultures, from will, life skills to professional skills.

When these scouts reached adulthood, they entered the military and government systems, and became a capable force under the control of the Kuomintang. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, these hot-blooded boy scouts stepped onto the front line one after another, leaving behind many stories to sing and cry about.

A few years ago, He Yingqin restored the long-abandoned Boy Scout Association, with Lao Jiang as the president and he as the vice president, but the symbolic meaning is greater than the practical significance, and today's Boy Scouts are far less influential than they were back then.

He Yingqin sighed: "Just now, I suddenly remembered some of the past events when the eight hundred heroes were guarding the Sixing Warehouse. At the height of the battle for the defense of the Sixing Warehouse, 11 Scouts braved the rain of bullets and bullets, risking their lives, to deliver the consolation goods of three trucks to the soldiers in front. Among them was a 15-year-old Girl Scout, and I still remember her name, and her name was Yang Huimin. Braving the enemy's artillery fire alone, he swam across the Suzhou Creek and presented the flag to the '800 heroes' who held the Sixing Warehouse, which boosted the morale of the anti-Japanese war warriors. ”

Wang Zijun didn't know that there was such a thing, and couldn't help but be in awe, a fifteen-year-old woman braved guns and bullets to send flags across the river, that is called passionate patriotism.

He Yingqin said: "Today's young people are becoming more and more disagreeable, and children in their teens learn to play rock and roll, wear bell bottoms, and only know how to enjoy." Zijun, you are the idol of many young people, and you should advocate for them to follow the right path. The Boy Scouts Council has an empty seat on the board of directors right now, just for you. ”

Only then did Wang Zijun react, He Yingqin was using his Wang Zijun's fame to develop the Boy Scout Association. This position has no rights, it is purely an empty title, and the current Boy Scouts are almost in name only, and there is no use for fart, what is he doing when he joins it?

But He Yingqin's invitation, Wang Zijun couldn't refuse directly. Fortunately, at this time, someone suddenly shouted: "It's here"
