7:15 a.m. on October 20, 1942

Zhou Xianyu, who lives in Changsha City, woke up from his sleep, after getting up, he first woke up his wife, and then the two woke up their son and daughter, the family hurriedly finished breakfast and his wife sent the two children to school, Zhou Xianyu came out of the house with a bag and walked in the direction of the third country in Changsha, which was less than a mile away from home, but what made him a little puzzled was that the quiet street in the past seemed a little chaotic, and many people were running on the street in a hurry. Among these people, there are some people who look more decently dressed with briefcases. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info And there was excitement on the faces of these people, and many of them were shouting loudly.

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhou Xianyu looked at the street that seemed to be a little chaotic with some confusion, and he stopped a pedestrian who was about to run by in a hurry and asked, "This master, what happened, why are so many people running around?" ”

The middle-aged man in his forties who was stopped was originally a little impatient, but after looking at Zhou Xianyu, who was wearing a robe and had a pair of eyes, and looked like an intellectual, his expression eased, and then he said with some excitement: "Sir, you don't know yet, right?" The Soviet government has just signed an agreement with us, in which they recognize Outer Mongolia as part of China, and promise that from now on they will not interfere in anything between our country and Outer Mongolia, and in return, General Su Jin will lead the Third Army to withdraw its troops from Siberia. We won, we won the Soviets! ”

"We ...... Did we win? ”

Zhou Xianyu's first reaction was that he didn't believe that as a person who cared about national affairs, he naturally knew about the war between the Third Army and the Soviet Union. Last month, when Su Jin led the Third Army to recover Outer Mongolia, the whole country cheered, but then worry and panic began to shroud the hearts of the Chinese people, the strength of the Soviet Union is obvious to all, and now the land of China is still suffering from the ravages of Japan's iron hooves, and now it has provoked the Soviet Union, and now China is afraid that it will be in danger of extinction.

As this concern spread, some people in the newspapers and among the people began to reproach and even scold Su Jin, saying that he should not have brought such a powerful enemy to the country for the sake of temporary pleasure. Originally, Japan had already occupied most of China, and now with the addition of the Soviet Union, one bad thing is that the building will collapse. But now that the Soviets have confessed, this huge contrast makes people feel like they are in a dream.

Looking at Zhou Xianyu, who was sluggish and became Kang, the middle-aged man didn't pay attention to it, but ran away in a hurry. When Zhou Xianyu recovered from the shock, he happened to see a newsboy carrying a big cloth bag walking from the front, shouting as he walked, "Extra...... In addition, the Soviet government formally signed an entente with the Chinese government, recognizing Outer Mongolia as part of China's inalienable territory and promising not to meddle in China's internal affairs. The commander of the Third Army, General Su Jin, said that in view of the fact that the Third Army has completed its intended goals, they will withdraw their troops from Siberia and return home in the near future! Extra ...... Extra ......"

Zhou Xianyu didn't care about the demeanor of a teacher, so he hurriedly ran to the newsboy, took out a piece of fiat currency from his pocket and stuffed it into the newsboy's hand, and then couldn't wait to snatch a newspaper from the newsboy's hand and read it. When he turned his gaze to the newspaper, the first thing he saw was "A Hundred Years of Shame and Snow Today" written in black bold. In this article, the grievances between China and the Soviet Union in the past few hundred years, as well as the land in China that has been occupied since the Tsarist period, as well as the massacres in Hailan Pao and Vladivostok and other places, are written one by one, and the author of this article also focuses on the Soviet Union's ambitions for Xinjiang and Mongolia, and points out sharply that if it were not for the outbreak of World War II, the Slavs' greed and ambition for the land would definitely attack Xinjiang and Mongolia. Now the victory of Su Jin and the Third Army can be said to be the greatest victory in China's foreign war since the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and its credit is not much compared to Huo Quai, who sealed the wolf Juxu, and it can be said that the merit is in the present and the benefit is in the future.

Well, the last sentence in the eyes of Zhou Xianyu, a traditional literati, although there is a suspicion of sycophancy, but basically there is no big difference, the Third Army in recent years first recovered Fengtian, and then regained Outer Mongolia back into the arms of China, it is not too much to praise him with such words, and at the end of the article, he also mentioned one thing in passing, that is, the 15th Military and Political Conference of the Nationalist Government will be held tomorrow, and Chairman Chiang also specially invited General Su Jin, commander of the Third Army, to Chongqing for a meeting.

Zhou Xianyu, who is a flat-headed commoner, naturally has seen the latter news, after all, this kind of thing is too far away from him, but for some people, this matter seems very unusual.

Zhou Xianyu, an ordinary middle school teacher, naturally didn't know that when he was reading the newspaper and hurrying to school, he was next to the runway of a military airport in the western suburbs of Changsha. Xue Yue, who was the commander of the Ninth Theater at the time, actually stood next to the runway with his hands behind his back and looked at the sky, looking like he was waiting for someone, and from the few cigarette butts scattered on the ground, he had been waiting for at least half an hour.

Xue Yue, as the commander of the Ninth Theater of Operations, would definitely not wait alone even if he was waiting for someone, and there were dozens of officers and guards standing behind him.

Looking at Xue Yue, who was standing on the side of the runway with his hands behind his back, the two officers who were standing not far away had a boring whispered conversation.

"You said that the shelf is too big, no matter how you say that Chief Xue is also his direct commander, how can you let the chief come to greet him, this is too unusual."

The other pouted and said: "What you kid said is all about the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Monkey, what kind of people are they now, the restoration of Fengtian and the restoration of Outer Mongolia, any of these merits are great merits, if you make such a contribution, let alone Chief Xue, you just want Chairman Jiang to greet it, it is not a problem!" ”

While the two were whispering, an officer suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "It's coming...... Here it is, here comes the plane. ”

With the officer's voice, a group of small black dots soon appeared in the sky, and soon a group of planes appeared in front of their eyes.

They heard it right, it is indeed a group of aircraft. After the group of planes flew over the airport, they finally saw clearly, twenty-six P-51 Mustang fighters painted in sky blue were divided into two layers and a circle, and the JU-52 transport plane nicknamed Steel Annie in the middle came to the sky above the airport, circled for a while, and then the JU-52 landed towards the runway, and when the JU-52 came to a stop, the P-51 fighters hovering in the sky landed one by one.

After JU-52 stopped, the hatch opened and lowered the gangway, and a Su Jin wearing a school uniform walked down the gangway, and Xue Yue, who had been waiting here for a long time, also greeted him, and said with a laugh while stepping forward...... Think twice, brother, you made me wait so hard! ”

Su Jin first saluted, and then said with a wry smile: "Chief Xue, you are tormenting the department, as the commander of the theater, how can you personally greet the department, and how can you be a person when you pass it out?" ”

"Who said that!" Xue Yue waved his hand and said without mind: "Brother Sansi first led the army to counterattack the northeast to recover Fengtian, and then took back Outer Mongolia, such an earth-shattering feat, not to mention me Xue, it is not an exaggeration to welcome Chairman Jiang personally, if you don't believe it, when we arrive in Chongqing, you will know that what I said is true." ”

"I ......"

Su Jin wanted to say something, but Xue Yue patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Okay, if you have anything to say, let's wait until we get on the plane, now I'll introduce you to your colleagues first!" ”

After speaking, Xue Yue couldn't help but pull his arm and walked towards the crowd behind him, facing the enthusiastic Xue Yue, Su Jin could only follow helplessly. However, this also made Su Jin feel a little emotional, thinking that when he first came to the Ninth War Zone, he was just a small militia leader, not to mention letting Xue Yue lead so many generals to greet him, I am afraid that even a regiment commander of the Central Army would not look at him with a straight eye, and now Xue Yue, who has always been rigorous in governing the army and not angry and self-assured, can put down his body and greet him with a smile on his face.

"I won't introduce this much, Wu Yizhi, chief of staff of our theater. This is Lieutenant General Sun Du, deputy commander-in-chief of the First Group Army, this is Wang Lingji, commander-in-chief of the 30th Group Army, this is Tang Enbo, commander-in-chief of the 31st Group Army, and this is ......"

After Xue Yue introduced them one by one, Su Jin found that half of these generals did not know him, and many familiar faces were gone, although he had some emotion in his heart, he still greeted these generals one by one, after all, the least he could follow Xue Yue to come here was at least the head of an army, as the saying goes, many friends have many roads, even if he will not have an intersection with them in the future, there is no need to make enemies with them.

After some introduction, the people present also found that this long-known guy turned out to be a very interesting guy, and he can be described as humorous when talking to people, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, without the slightest problem of becoming famous and domineering at a young age.

However, these people underestimate Su Jin, in later generations, Su Jin was the master of the military channel for several years, and naturally had his own set of styles and methods in dealing with people.

After greeting everyone, Su Jin whispered to Xue Yue: "Chief Xue, you brought so many people to the airport to greet the vocational department today, you don't just want to see if the vocational department has three heads and six arms, we are all soldiers, if you want to say anything quickly, otherwise we will have to fly directly to Chongqing after the plane is refueled." ”

Although Su Jin is not a person with low self-esteem, he is not so arrogant that he is just passing through Changsha, and he can work Xue Yue to greet him with so many commanders and military commanders with heavy troops, and he asked himself if he is not a bright Yuan Datou, who can make so many people like it at the same time.

"This ......"

Xue Yue coughed lightly a little embarrassed, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Think twice, brother, I was really embarrassed to talk about this matter, but now no one in the whole country knows that you are a famous rich man, and it is estimated that there will be no richer person than you in the whole of China." Brother, you know my Ninth War Zone, my family background is too thin. After a while, we may have a big operation in the war zone, and we urgently need a large amount of arms and materials, but now the central government is tight, and there is really not much to allocate to it. ”

Rolled his eyes, Su Jin really didn't expect that this theater commander, who used to have a serious face in his heart, would have a day when he had a hippie smile with him, you are the commander of the theater, is it really good to fight the autumn breeze like this?

However, when it comes to this, some authorities in Su Jin are confused, and people are multifaceted. In the past, Xue Yue always had a solemn expression in front of Su Jin, that was because he was Su Jin's boss, so he naturally wanted to maintain the majesty of his superiors, but now it is different. Although Su Jin is still nominally subordinate to the Ninth War Zone, in fact, the Third Army under Su Jin has become the largest warlord leader in the country with Zhejiang, Liaoning, and Outer Mongolia provinces, and his command has nearly 800,000 troops including the army, navy and air force, and its combat effectiveness is even the best in China, and even the Japanese Kwantung Army and the Soviet Red Army were beaten by him.

Facing a character whose strength far exceeds his own, Xue Yue's brain will be pumped before he will give him a cold face. And who doesn't know now, Su Jin, who holds the Fengtian Arsenal in his hand, is now very powerful, you must know that this arsenal was able to provide 60% of the weapons, ammunition and materials for the Japanese army in China before, and now these things have fallen into Su Jin's hands, plus his arsenals in Hangzhou, this guy can now be said to be very rich, as long as a little leakage from his fingers is enough for others to eat, how can Xue Yue not work hard.

Seeing Xue Yue's appearance of not giving up if he didn't achieve his goal, Su Jin could only say bitterly: "Chief Xue, can you wait until we get on the plane to talk about this matter, the department has just gotten off the plane now." ”

"Okay!" Xue Yue agreed a little stupidly, and then said: "But you have to promise me, you must help in this matter, and you are not allowed to release my pigeons." ”

"By all means, I promise, it's going to work." was made a little crying and laughing by Xue Yue's nervous expression, and Su Jin could only reluctantly agree.

Seeing that Su Jin agreed, Xue Yue nodded with satisfaction.

It was only at this time that Su Jin vaguely felt that this trip to Chongqing was not easy to walk, since the recovery of Fengtian, everyone thought that they had gotten gold and silver mountains, and they were all red-eyed, even Xue Yue, who usually held his own identity, had to come over to fight the autumn wind, and when he arrived at the wolf's den in Chongqing, he was able to pay it back, at this moment, even in the face of the Soviet army and the Japanese army, Su Jin, who had never been afraid, suddenly had the urge to turn around and run.
