At night, Zheng Yi and Li Zhao, who were full of alcohol, bid farewell to the enthusiastic County Magistrate Huang, Director Lu and the squires, and led the well-fed Xu Maofu guard platoon back to the old military camp in the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Chief of Staff Wang Huchen saw Zheng Yi and Li Zhao coming back, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Half an hour ago, the front committee sent a telegram that the vanguard had taken Tingzhou, and Qian Dajun's department didn't know why, stopped at Ruijin and no longer pursued. ”

Zheng Yi and Li Zhao suddenly drank completely, Zheng Yi took the telegram and entered the temporary command room, Li Zhao shouted tea, grabbed Wang Huchen and asked in a low voice.

A few minutes later, Zheng Yi said to the party branch members who gathered together: "We have too many wounded and sick people, and we really can't march thousands of miles for a while. ”

"Judging from the telegrams, the spirit of the instructions sent to us by the former committee before the war has not changed, and according to the analysis of the actual situation at present, we can only get out of the predicament and gain the opportunity to develop and grow by going all the way to the west, trying by all means to overcome all difficulties, and going to the Hunan and Jiangxi border regions, where the revolutionary foundation is relatively good."

"If you have any opinions, please say them directly."

"I support the division commander's decision."

Han Shouren, the deputy division commander who has always been slow for half a beat, was the first to express his position.

Dong Zongzhuo, political commissar of the teaching regiment, nodded: "I can only choose this way, what I'm worried about now is whether it is safe for us to stay in Yihuang for too long?" ”

Wang Huchen, chief of staff, who is also a member of the co-opted committee, said with a smile: "After a long time, I dare not say that there will be no problem in three or five days, not to mention that the enemy cannot determine whether we are in Yihuang or not, and even if it is confirmed, it will be three to five days later." Three or five days later, who would dare to drive over and fight with us immediately? ”

Everyone listened interestingly, and they all laughed, Dong Zongzhuo nodded embarrassedly, closed his mouth and said nothing.

"Lao Li, tell me your opinion." Zheng Yi directly named him.

Li Zhao hesitated for a moment: "It is impossible to go south, Qian Dajun's three divisions will definitely block the Ruijin line, in case our rebel armies kill back the horse guns, several divisions of the Guangdong army on the border of Jiangxi and Guangdong must have turned around and headed east, looking for the main force of our army to fight a decisive battle, in order to keep eastern Guangdong, we are now alone, and every next step is very difficult." ”

"In this case, I think it is possible to ask the former party committee for instructions and see if we can get in touch with the local party organizations in the Hunan and Jiangxi border areas?"

Everyone nodded frequently, and after thinking about it carefully, they felt that it was very difficult, there was no problem with the headquarters, there were two radio stations, large and small, but the local party organization Shenlong could not see the head and the end, and there was no superior radio communication conditions in the headquarters, where to find it at this time?

Zheng Yi, who was confident, agreed with Li Zhao's opinion without hesitation: "I agree with the opinion of the political commissar, this is a safe move, no matter whether the former committee can give us clear instructions, we must report truthfully and make requests." Lao Li, please draft a telegram and submit it to the front committee in the name of all the members of the tutor's party branch. ”

"Okay, I'll write it now."

Li Zhao admired Zheng Yi's meticulousness very much, as long as he asked the former committee in the name of all the members of the party branch of the instructor, it was a decision made by the grassroots party organization, and no matter what happened in the future, there would be no problem of wrong line.

Han Shouren took the opportunity to ask: "How to carry out the next step?" ”

Zheng Yi leaned on the Taishi chair and smoked a cigarette easily: "Keep silent and recuperate!" Speaking of shame, at the banquet just now, the respected county magistrate Huang and the elites from all walks of life only promised to pay 50,000 oceans, which is very different from the bottom line of 80,000 oceans we set before, but fortunately, during our station, all the grain, meat, Chinese herbal medicine, tobacco and alcohol were provided by the county government, which barely met our minimum requirements. ”

"Originally, I wanted to fight on the basis of reason, but our political commissar Li was too soft-hearted, and when he saw the bitter faces of the county magistrate Huang and the squires, he was busy agreeing."

Everyone burst into laughter, and Wang Huchen reminded everyone after laughing: "Don't forget, we are now the Central Army under the direct leadership of Commander-in-Chief Jiang!" It is necessary for the local government to obey the central government, not to mention that we are stationed here to defend Yihuang, to protect the black gauze hat of the county magistrate of Huang, and to protect the property and life safety of the squires. ”

The crowd laughed again.

Zheng Yile joked with Li Zhao: "I said Political Commissar Li, you are also from a big landlord family in Jin Province, why don't you have the ruthlessness of Jin merchants in business?" ”

Li Zhao didn't raise his head and continued to write: "Where can I compare to you, I was born in a big capitalist comprador family, 180,000 yuan is a drop in the bucket for you, so naturally I dare to open my mouth, but you want to see what kind of place this is, can it be compared with Huhai and Wuhan?" If I open my mouth like you, it will be 100,000 oceans, and maybe half of the people will be stunned on the spot. ”

The hearty laughter sounded again, Zheng Yi shook his head helplessly, took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and quietly waited for Li Zhao to prepare the message, but his mind flew to his hometown Wuhan and Shanghai, I don't know if the family has published a statement to dissociate himself from him? I wonder if the girl who makes her heart pound as soon as she meets her thinks of herself occasionally?

I don't know if it's a feeling or a coincidence, at this moment, the "Oriental News" newspaper office in the Shanghai-Hai-French Concession is still brightly lit, as the general manager and literary editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Zheng Xuan quietly leans on the window edge of the top floor of the western-style building, staring at the bright moon in the sky for a long time, her beautiful eyes are full of insoluble sadness and concern.

On the sofa near the window, Liu Yu, who was wearing a silver-white silk satin cheongsam, put down his hand to report the sample, slowly walked to the window, and held Zheng Xuan's hand: "Sister Xuan, do you miss him again?" ”

Zheng Xuan sighed faintly, hugged Liu Yu's curved shoulders, and replied in a low voice: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, can you not think about it?" The communist army of the Nanchang rebellion had already moved south to eastern Guangdong, but the heartless guy stayed in Guangchang County in Jiangxi with 3,000 remnants of his army, and fought fiercely with several times the enemy who surrounded him. ”

"In the morning, two friends from the "Republic of China Daily" sent me a message, and General Li Zongren, who has now replaced Commander-in-Chief Chiang, has spoken, saying that he does not agree with the arrest warrant issued by the Wuhan side against Zheng Yi, and sincerely hopes that Zheng Yi will return to the sequence of the National Revolutionary Army, alas, ......."

"I don't know which ravine he is hiding in now, do you know that there is an eldest sister who is worried about him day and night?"

Liu Yu was silent for a long time: "Sister Xuan, when you said that when you were in Wuhan, did he deliberately pretend to be indifferent because he was worried about affecting me?" ”

"Silly girl, he even prepared in advance the desperate trick of announcing the severance of the relationship, where would you dare to let such a lovely person as ice clear and jade be sad for him? Now, on the second day of the Nanchang riots, our whole family announced in the newspaper that we would cut off relations with him, and he could finally pursue his ethereal great ideal without worry. ”

Zheng Xuan still couldn't let go, and there was a strong resentment in her tone.

Liu Yu's tears swirled in his eyes: "So, he still cares about me, doesn't he?" ”

Zheng Xuan hugged Liu Yu, who fell in love with her brother at first sight, and helped her to the sofa: "He likes you, I can see it, remember the moment when he helped you send your luggage into the cabin?" He doesn't even have the courage to look at you, if he doesn't care about you, how can he behave like this? Who would be like this with ordinary friends? He's afraid of hurting you! ”

"Sister Xuan......"

Liu Yu threw herself into Zheng Xuan's arms and cried bitterly: "I can't forget him...... I've dreamed of him, and I'll never forget him for the rest of my life......"

Zheng Xuan's tears rolled down like pearls, hugging Liu Yu and choking: "This unconscionable thing, he had premeditated, otherwise he wouldn't have done this to you, let alone transferred all the properties he worked so hard to earn to our family, and he also gave advice to our family again and again, earning a huge amount of wealth......"

"My sister is also confused, in fact, she should have seen it a year ago......"

Liu Yu nodded frequently, took out a silk scarf and slowly wiped away her tears, raised her head and begged: "Sister Xuan, let me come to work in the newspaper, I don't want to be a reporter anymore, just give me an editorial position for the current affairs edition, it's really okay to be a page proofreader, as long as I can occasionally hear his news from the news sent from all over the world, and know that he is alive and well, I will be satisfied, okay?" ”

Zheng Xuan couldn't help crying again: "Silly girl, why are you so ...... so hard?"

……

……

In the early morning, the breeze was refreshing, the birds were singing, the bells of Yuquan Temple were melodious, and when the last echo was gone among the mountains, Zheng Yi slowly opened his eyes, subconsciously touched the corners of his sour eyes, and soon there was a wet trance, and the tired mind actually floated a trace of sadness.

Half an hour later, Zheng Yi, who was sweating profusely, ran along the river bank back to the wide courtyard under the Yuquan Temple, entered the quiet courtyard through the middle gate and came to the well.

The sound of the rushing water attracted the smiling eyes of the officers and soldiers.

Xu Maofu in front of the door of the east wing shook his head again and again, went into the house and took out a basin, towel and toothbrush, and walked carefully to Zheng Yi on the bluestone slab: "It's cold!" ”

Zheng Yi smiled and continued to fetch water: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"You've arranged everything, what else can you do, oh yes! Duan Xuan sent a telegram from Yintang Town, reporting the progress of the construction of the fortifications, and finally asked if there were any benefits for the Mid-Autumn Festival? Deputy Division Commander Han was quite concerned, and it was estimated that at this time, he had already entered the city to discuss this matter with Political Commissar Li. ”

After Xu Maofu finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Yi fixedly.

Zheng Yi thought for a while: "Yihuang doesn't have a merchant who makes moon cakes, if it is in Guangzhou, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be much grander, alas! Maybe we have to leave before the Mid-Autumn Festival, so let's notify all departments to add vegetables, and the mountain delicacies and game are in turn, and the meat is enough. ”

Xu Maofu suddenly got tired: "Still eating meat?" Yesterday afternoon, more than 50 big fat pigs were sent from the surrounding towns and 120 pieces of Hanyang-made Longxi Town, and 40 goats were sent by Wu Dashan from Longxi Town, which we bought in Hanyang, and they had to eat pork and mutton for the next two days. ”

Zheng Yi continued to take a bath without care: "Then change the taste, let each regiment and battalion go and buy some bacon and bacon or game or something back, as well as mushrooms, stone fungus, bamboo shoots, daylily or something, if you don't hurry up and eat, you won't be able to eat it if you want to eat it." ”

"I won't tell you, it's boring." Xu Maofu shook his head and stepped back.

Zheng Yi sighed, looking at the clear blue sky without a trace of clouds, and suddenly found that his life was indeed becoming more and more monotonous.
