Chapter Ninety-Four: A Dream of the Republic of China (9)

The morning newspaper published the news of the destruction of the No. 76 Demon Cave in a huge space, and the Japanese and the Wang puppet government became even more panicked after being angry, and people in high positions did not dare to go out easily, and the number of bodyguards brought with them approached three digits when they went out. The Chinese people applauded this, and some even opened wine bottles to celebrate. The Chongqing government wanted to recruit the Night Devil, but they did not know the true identity of the Night Devil, and the military commanders could only do nothing about this order.

"Hostess, we didn't ask for bean juice." Seeing that there was one more food on the table than the food he ordered, the guest hurriedly reminded the proprietress that it was sent to the wrong place.

"Hehe, I gave this bean juice to everyone." Yao Huang smiled and was full of joy.

"Boss, if there is anything good, say it and make everyone happy." One of the guests laughed.

"Isn't that a good thing?" Yao Huang pointed to the front page of the morning newspaper and said.

The guests looked at each other and smiled tacitly.

"Yes, yes, it's a good thing, and we have to celebrate it too. Boss lady, another wonton soup and a sauce skeleton. ”

"Boss, add me a husband and wife lung slices and a casserole vermicelli soup."

"Hostess, I want to ......"

“……”

The business was overwhelmed, and Yao Huang smiled happily.

"Boss, I'll bring my cousin to your shop next week, can you cook something delicious yourself?" I bragged in front of my cousin that I wanted her to see what authentic food is. A girl in a school uniform asked.

"I might be going to disappoint you, but after a week, I'm already out of Shanghai." Yao Huang said apologetically.

"The hostess. Are you leaving? What about the store? The guests were taken aback, they wouldn't be able to eat such a delicious snack in the future, right?

"Naturally, it's business as usual. Master Zhao's craftsmanship is no worse than mine. ”

"Boss, are you going home to visit relatives?" The girl asked. "When will you be back?"

"I'm not sure! If there is a lot of work at home, I will spend more time. Yao Huang replied, the whole Huaxia is too big, and it will definitely not work for a few months after walking around.

"Then I wish you a good trip. Boss, the world is not peaceful, you have to be careful along the way. The girl said, and the other guests also expressed their concern for Chinese blessings.

Yao Huang responded one by one with a smile, promising to return to Shanghai as long as he returned. Be sure to make your own food and share it with your guests.

Yao Huang is four years this week. For more than 1,000 days and nights in four years, every day in a corner of China, Fusang and traitors were killed by the night devil. In the past four years, Yao Huang has killed more than 3,000 people. What a horrible number. The Night Devil or Night Hero has truly become a nightmare for the Fuso people and a legend for the whole of China.

At noon on August 14, 1945, the Emperor of Japan broadcast to the nation an edict accepting the Potsdam Proclamation and granting unconditional surrender. By this time, Yao Huang had already returned to Shanghai. For a month, she cooked all kinds of delicious food to celebrate the birthday of the Anti-Japanese War, so that the guests ate happily. The schoolgirl didn't come to the store, her cousin did. From the mouth of her cousin, Yao Huang Zhilu Dao female student later went to the battlefield as a medical worker but never returned. My cousin packed crab shell yellow and duck blood vermicelli. These two are the favorite foods of female students, and my cousin will bring my cousin's favorite snacks to worship her. Yao Huang didn't accept her cousin's money, she packed an extra sand ball that female students love to eat, as a little bit of her heart.

"My cousin said that the food in the snack bar is the best and most authentic. I didn't believe it before I didn't eat it, but now I believe it. No wonder my cousin comes here so often. "The girl has short hair, and her eyes shine with the fortitude of being baptized by war." I'll come back more often in the future. ”

"You're so welcome, this is for you!"

"What is this?" Girls pick up brightly colored cards. Asked suspiciously.

"Membership card. Those who have a membership card will get a 20% discount on all meals at the snack bar. ”

"So good? Xie Lu thanked him. The girl happily took the card and expressed her sincere thanks to Yao Huang. Walked away with packed snacks.

Yao Huang stood by the door, watching the girl's back disappear, some of the regulars who came to the snack bar four years ago were like female students, and it was impossible to come again. Just as he sighed, a familiar figure appeared in sight. The man already has gray hair on his head, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes are more profound, and he has aged a lot after not seeing him for a few years, but it is gratifying that his complexion is still very good and energetic.

"Ahem, my dear, I heard that there is a very delicious snack bar in Shanghai, and I wondered if it would be opened by you. Hehe, it's really you, it looks like I'm blessed again. The man laughed, and he was followed by several followers, wearing the uniforms of the US Army and the GMD Army.

"Dear George, it's a pleasure to see you again on the other side of the planet!" Yao Huang happily hugged Marshall.

"Me too, dear Nora, and I'm glad to see you unharmed. For the past few years, I have been worried about your safety. "Marshall is now retired, retiring with the rank of five-star general.

"Thank you, George, thank you for worrying about me. To thank you, today I will cook your favorite food for you. Yao Huang said with a smile.

"Oh, what a wonderful offer!" Marshall exaggeratedly exclaimed, "Honey, what are you waiting for? Hurry inside! My mouth and stomach started screaming. ”

Yao Huang hurriedly welcomed the group into the store, asked the waiter to bring out the usual small pastries and fragrant tea to greet everyone, and went into the kitchen to prepare his favorite food for Marshall.

"Nora, how are you doing all these years?" Marshall asked with concern as he ate, and the two of them sat alone at a table, as if they had returned to the way they had been in the United States.

"Fortunately, after seeing this small shop, I secretly helped my compatriots, and the Fuso people didn't suspect me." Yao Huang naturally didn't tell the story of the Night Hero, but just casually talked about what he had seen and heard in the past few years, but he also heard Marshall sigh.

"Are you going back to the United States? When will I go back? ”

"Of course I go back!" Yao Huang said, "My younger brother and daughter are both in the United States, how can I not go back." I want to wait another month and go back, you know, I came back to help my compatriots resist the invaders, not to watch the Chinese fight themselves. I don't want to see such a tragic scene, so I have to avoid it. ”

"Nora, you've always been so wise. However, you don't have to be so pessimistic, the war may not be fought. The GMD and GCD have decided on peace talks, and peace can continue as long as an agreement can be reached. Marshall comforted Yao Huangdao.

How can it be! A civil war is bound to break out, otherwise how would New China be established? Yao Huang remembered the first peace talks between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and it seemed that the United States was the intermediary between the two and also participated in the peace talks.

"George, you won't come to China this time just for this negotiation, right?"

"Yes, I have been entrusted by the president to participate in this negotiation, and I hope that China will remain peaceful. It is important to know that behind the GCD is the Soviet Union, a red power, and we do not want to clash with it yet. "The best way to do this is to let the two parties divide the river." ”

"It's not that I'm leaking your air, George, maybe your and President Roosevelt's wishes will be frustrated. If nothing else, Mr. Jiang's ambition will not be half of the country. ”

"Dear Nora, do you know Mr. Jiang? How can you evaluate him so much? ”

"No, I don't know him. My judgment comes from other comments about Mr. Chiang, and I don't think Mr. Chiang would really want peace talks. ”

"No, Mr. Chiang really wants peace talks, and he has already sent an invitation to Mr. Mao, the leader of the GCD, and has called Mr. Mao three times to invite him to Chongqing to discuss domestic peace issues."

Yao Huang pouted, Jiang was really weird, she remembered watching a TV called "Chongqing Negotiations" a long time ago, which mentioned the reason why Jiang negotiated: most of the elite troops of the GMD government retreated to southwest and northwest China during the Anti-Japanese War, and it will take some time to quickly go to the front line in the GCD-controlled area. After weighing the pros and cons, Chiang launched a peace offensive while dispatching troops. If Mr. Mao did not dare to go to Chongqing, the base camp of GMD, he could play up the sincerity of GCD's lack of peace talks and pull public opinion to his side.

"Judging by your expression, it seems that you are very unoptimistic about this negotiation?"

"Of course, I don't think that the GMD side will tolerate a new partisan division of the country's rule. There is an old Chinese saying that 'one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers'. I think this is a good way to describe the situation today. ”

"Oh, Nora, don't be so pessimistic! Don't discourage me from having faith in this peace talks! Marshall pretended to complain, "Comeon, baby." Why don't you accompany me to Chongqing and see the progress of the peace talks? ”

Good idea! Being able to personally participate in such a historic event made Yao Huang very moved.

"George, in what capacity am I participating? I don't want to be kicked out like someone who doesn't matter. ”

"How about being my translator?"

"Do you need a translator?"

"Heh, promise or not, in a word?"

"Of course, I don't dare to ask for it."

"Nora, you're bullying me, but it's okay, I understand what that means."

"Hehe......"

………… I am Yao Huang who followed Marshall to the demarcation line in Chongqing in the name of a translator for the U.S. military............

On August 28, 1945, Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Wang Ruofei and other representatives of China and G, accompanied by U.S. Ambassador to China Hurley and GMD Representative Zhang Zhizhong, took a special plane from Yan'an to Chongqing. At the Chongqing airport, Mao Zedong made a brief speech to the press, pointing out that the most urgent task at present is to ensure domestic peace, realize democratic politics, and consolidate domestic unity, with a view to realizing national reunification and establishing an independent, free, prosperous, and strong new China. Mao Zedong personally went to Chongqing for negotiations, and the CPC's sincerity in striving for peace, democracy, and unity was warmly welcomed and embraced by the people of the whole country.
