Chongqing.

Zeng Jiayan No. 51.

Dai Mansion.

Dai Li personally brought Chen Bui a cup of tea.

This is a cup of Longjing before the rain, Chen Bui, who loves tea very much, has already smelled it before he reaches out to take it, but he has no intention of tasting this high-quality tea drink now, but is thinking about the purpose of Dai Li's invitation to come.

He has always been vigilant and kept a distance from him because of his youngest daughter and the little son-in-law who didn't let him worry, he would definitely not have had too much contact with this "devil".

"Yunong, you and I have worked together for so long, if you have anything to say, I guess I don't have this kung fu when I drink tea."

Chen Bui is really busy, Dai Li knows it very well, but to say that he can't even spare time for a cup of tea, that's not it.

"Brother Yan and brother, I said you, you were born to be a tired life." Dai Li looked like an old friend, seemingly blaming Chen Bui for not knowing how to rest, but in fact, he shirked what he had just said. "Although you and I are the ministers of the humerus of the party-state, we will not bury ourselves all in it, we have to have a little bit of our own life!"

After Dai Li finished speaking, he picked up the cup of tea in front of him, opened the lid of the tea bowl, and blew a few breaths on the tea, and a refreshing fragrance filled the entire room.

"I said Yunong, I can't compare to you if you have a big heart. The war ahead is tight, and the president is so anxious these days that he can't think about tea and dinner, and we can't help much as a staff member, but we can still do some simple military intelligence and government affairs. You don't know, the files and messages on my desk are piling up. ”

Chen Bui sighed and said, he may have been aroused by the fragrance of tea in the air, and he also picked up the tea bowl, as soon as he lifted the lid of the tea bowl, he immediately felt the special fragrance, and kept praising in his mouth: "Good tea, good tea, Yunong, you have a lot of good tea here." ”

"Brother Yan and brother, I'm not like you, I have to share a lot of burdens for the chairman, if you are like me, you will find a few hobbies for yourself." Dai Li smiled and said, "If Yan and Brother like this dragon well before the rain, they will be sent to your mansion later." No, it should be sent to your office, you must have not been home in a long time! ”

"That's so embarrassing, Chen is disrespectful." Although Chen Bui likes this tea very much, he also knows that there are some things that cannot be taken casually, Dai Li may not dare to do something to himself, but it does not mean that he does not dare to do something to the people around him, especially now, there are shortcomings in his hands.

"Brother Yan and brother, don't be so polite to you and my brother, listen to me about this." Dai Li's face was full of smiles, he put down the tea bowl, glanced at Chen Bui meaningfully, pretended to be very contradictory, and said hesitantly: "Brother Yan and brother, in fact, I asked you to come to the cold house today, I want to say a few words to you, but I don't know how to speak. ”

When the topic came, Chen Bui's heart moved, he habitually sat up straight, and he only took a sip of the bowl of tea in his hand, and then put it on the coffee table.

"Yunong, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to speak, Chen listens."

Dai Li glanced at him again, then swept his gaze to the side, and then looked down at the ground, but he didn't make a sound, which made Chen Bui a little confused, and asked: "Is something wrong?" Is it Li'er or Sun Yumin? ”

Chen Bui's many children are quite outstanding, especially the eldest brother Chen Chi, who has already taken on the role of a strict father, so he almost doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the younger generations of the Chen family, except for the youngest daughter and his husband who is not worrying.

"Not really, they're all good." Dai Li said: "I don't have much news about Miss Lu Man, so I deliberately let An ...... The people over there in Anhui paid attention, and they replied that she was fine, so Brother Yan and brother, you don't have to worry. He almost said that he was the person who was placed next to Sun Yumin, but fortunately he changed his words quickly and said that he was placed in Anhui.

Seeing Chen Bui breathe a sigh of relief, a strange smile appeared on Dai Li's face, but it was quickly covered up again, and he continued: "As for Sun Yumin, that's a big deal." Brother Hikoji, on the way here, I received a telegram, and you will be very happy to read it. ”

After Dai Li finished speaking, he got up and walked behind the desk, took out a telegram from the drawer, and then walked back and handed it to Chen Bui.

"This is one of several messages I have received with roughly the same content, the contents of which have been confirmed and are true."

While Chen Bui was reading the message, Dai Li explained beside him.

"Great, great, really relieved, if the chairman of the committee knows the news, he will definitely be happy."

Chen Bui's hands were trembling slightly, the content of the message shocked him, although some good news has come one after another these days, how can it be compared with the content of this message.

"Brother Yan, although I don't understand military affairs, I can also understand that Sun Yumin really made a great contribution this time, and firmly embedded the entire two divisions of the Japanese army in northern Jiangxi and didn't dare to move." Dai Li echoed Chen Bui's words, this was not his usual style, but the next words made Dai Li feel even more incredulous. "Sun Yumin has been able to defeat the Japanese invaders repeatedly, he is really a rare tiger general in the national army, if he can have the strength of Xue Boling and others in his hands, then Okamura Ningci still dares to shout to eat Changsha!"

"Yunong, you can't say that, how can you compare leading a division and a brigade with leading several armies and strategic groups, how can a son-in-law compare with Xue Boling, and let him study for another ten years, it is not as good as Commander-in-Chief Xue." Chen Bui couldn't figure out what medicine was selling in Dai Li's mind, even if he praised his son-in-law as a flower in his heart, he still had a tone of hatred for iron but not steel.

"No, no, no!" Dai Li said: "Yan Ji, this is not Dai someone's nonsense, you and I are like a mirror in our hearts, Sun Yumin's military talent, there are a few people among the generals of the national army who can compare." Although I don't know much about military affairs, I can see that in this Battle of Changsha, Sun Yumin broke the 102nd Brigade of the Japanese Army, so that the backs of the enemy's two divisions were completely exposed in front of Luo Zhuoying's troops, which made them almost dare not take another half a step forward. The devils marched in three ways, and the attempt to encircle Changsha was at least half shattered, Yan and you said yes! ”

"That's right, Yunong, you're so right, the devil's plan to encircle Changsha is basically unachievable. Although the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army in southern Hunan, it was advancing to the upper reaches of the Miluo River; The 6th Division of Xiangbei, the Nara Detachment, and the Shangcun Detachment had broken through the two defensive lines of the Xinqiang River and the Miluo River, and on the surface it seemed that the capture of Changsha was just around the corner, but in fact this was not the case. As soon as the current situation was mentioned, Chen Bui immediately gushed endlessly, and he said: "Although the Japanese army in southern Hunan has reached the upper reaches of the Miluo River and joined the main force of the Japanese army in northern Hunan, the main force of the national army in the ninth theater of Xue Yue has retreated. Judging from the telegrams received in the past two days, it is already difficult for the devil to move an inch in Xiangbei. The Japanese Kamimura detachment fell into the ambush circle of the 14th Division and the 50th Division of the 54th Army of the National Army at Sanjie Bridge and Liqiao; Shiro Inaba's 6th Division was ambushed by the 195th Division at Fulinpu and suffered heavy losses. Yesterday, another part of the 6th Division of the Japanese Inaba Shiro Army, which was heading south from Shinshi via Kanai, was ambushed by the 195th Division at Shimenji and suffered heavy casualties. Although the other division of the Sixth Division broke through the position of the Nationalist Army in the Laodao River today and occupied Yong'an City, which is more than 30 kilometers north of Changsha, they did not dare to go any further, and there were six divisions of the Nationalist Army waiting in the suburbs of Changsha. ”

Chen Bui's eyebrows fluttered, and finally he said: "You know the end of the strong crossbow, the devil who occupied Yong'an is already the end of the strong crossbow, once Inaba Shiro and Okamura Ningji know the battle situation in northern Jiangxi, they will definitely retreat on all fronts." Without the help of the 101st and 106th divisions, they were also afraid that the 6th Division and the 33rd Division would be surrounded by Xue Yue's hundreds of thousands of troops. Now Okamura Ninji is worried that the 101st and 106th Divisions in northern Jiangxi will be surrounded by Luo Zhuoying's troops, and he is also worried about the safety of the 6th and 33rd Divisions, so I am sure that within a few days, they will retract to their original territory. ”

"Yan Ji, the chairman of the committee has you by his side, but it really saves a lot of worry and trouble." Dai Li is not a stupid person, how can he not understand this analysis of the battle situation, he doesn't care whether the Japanese army can attack Changsha from Yong'an again, the focus of his attention is that Chen Bui is like a map in his heart, he can casually tell the situation of the big battle.

"Where, if you want to save worry and trouble for the president, it's still Yunong, your military commander is this." Chen Bui may have been happy, and he gave Dai Lishu a rare thumbs up.

"Brother Yan and brother, Sun Yumin has made such a great contribution, how do you think the chairman will reward him?" Dai Li's words were pulled to Sun Yumin again, his eyes were more than before, and he kept staring at Chen Bui who was full of excitement.

"What is not a big achievement, he is a soldier, it is his duty to go into battle to kill the enemy, doesn't the president give a reward, he won't lead the troops to fight?" Chen Bui hadn't noticed anything unusual.

"Brother Yan Ji, in fact, I invited you here, not to help brag about Sun Yumin's exploits in this battle, but to ......"

Dai Li didn't finish his words, he wanted to see Chen Bui's attitude.

Sure enough, Chen Bui quickly noticed this, originally, if he just told him how much Sun Yumin had done this time, there was no need to pull himself to his residence, there must be something inconvenient to say in the chairman's chamber.

"Yunong, look at it, I'm all confused, as soon as I see the good news, I lose my sense of proportion, and I'm ashamed."

Chen Bui was thirsty, just picked up the tea bowl, and was about to take two sips, but was put down by Dai Li's words.

"Brother Yan and brother, you take a sip of tea first, and listen to me while drinking." Dai Li's words had made Chen Bui completely lose the desire to drink tea, and it was difficult to refute his face when he heard him say this, so he picked up the tea bowl again.

"Brother Hiko, do you remember what I told you in your office a few days ago?"

"Remember, in the battle in northern Jiangxi you mentioned, although the Japanese 102nd Brigade was defeated, most of them were still rescued by the Devil Cavalry Brigade. The devil's combat effectiveness is really strong, and in just a few days, a line of defense has been established again, but this time it was really defeated, and it can be regarded as a bad breath for the national army. "How could Chen Bui not remember what Dai Li said that day, but he didn't want to mention it, Li'er was still in Huoshan, and he didn't have the idea to try to save her, but helped others hide her husband together, is this what his father did?

"Yan Ji, you know that what I said is not this, why pretend to be confused!"

Dai Li was a little displeased.

"What's that? Yunong, just say okay, don't let me be an old man guessing everything. ”

Although Chen Bui was broken, he was not embarrassed, and still pretended to be confused to hide the guilt he felt for his daughter.

"Okay, Yan Ji, the reason why I came to you is to tell you that my people over there in Anhui sent a message that there was a fierce conflict between the 65th Wing of the Japanese Army and Sun Yumin's troops left in Huoshan." Dai Li said that he saw that Chen Bui was still pretending to be confused, and deliberately said another sentence after speaking: "I made a special trip to tell you a few days ago, I won't forget it so soon." ”

"Well, I remember." Chen Bui has been thinking about his daughter these days, how could he forget about it, it's just that he has a lot of guilt in his heart and is deceiving himself.

Chen Bui didn't expect that his thoughts were misunderstood by Dai Li.

"Do you know how they defeated the Japanese 65th Wing?" Dai Li threw out a question, his shining eyes, looking at Chen Bui deadly, observing whether he really didn't know.

"I don't know, I haven't received the battle report yet." Chen Bui replied quickly, almost without any consideration.

"Of course, they didn't submit the battle report so quickly, because this battle was fought by them and the New Fourth Army!"

Dai Li's words were like throwing a stone on a pool of calm water, which immediately caused ripples in Chen Buhuo's heart, he knew Dai Li's thoughts, and he knew his methods better, and he could be regarded as understanding the reason why this big spy leader let him come.

"The New Fourth Army? How did they get involved with the New Fourth Army? Although Chen Bui asked in surprise, he could actually be sure in his heart that what Dai Li said was the truth, and because the four detachments of the New Fourth Army were too close to Sun Yumin, Lao Jiang used the defected Yang Kezhi and Cao Yufu in a fit of anger to find excuses and opportunities to get rid of the high commanders of the four detachments. Judging from the matter of the high commander, it is a fact that not only Sun Yumin, but also his subordinates have a very close relationship with the New Fourth Army.

"Then you have to ask Sun Yumin, what is the situation with him and his troops, how can outsiders know."

A strange smile flashed on the corner of Dai Li's mouth, not so much weird as cunning.

"According to Yu Nong, the defeat of the 65th Wing is the troops of the New Fourth Army and Sun Yumin's troops. Then I think it's strange, Zhang Yichun's 48th Army, wrong, he is now promoted to deputy commander of the 21st Group Army, isn't the 176th Division of the 48th Army in Ou Shounian just around Sun Yumin's department? Why did it come to the rescue of the New Fourth Army? ”

"You have to ask Zhang Yichun and Ou Shounian yourself, and Dai doesn't know."

"Yunong, don't hide it in front of me, if you don't even know it, then who can know?"

"Haha......" Dai Li laughed and said, "Yan Ji, you have won the prize." As far as I know, Zhang Yichun didn't want to save it, but because Tanaka Shizuichi's 13th Division suddenly turned to Anhui, he had to pull the 176th Division away and move his subordinates to other places. ”

"Alas, Yunong, even if Tanaka Jingyi leads his troops back to Anhui, but starting from southwest Hubei Province, no matter how fast it is, it will have to be a few days or even ten days later, does this have anything to do with going to rescue Sun Bu? Zhang Yichun is just looking for a reason for himself not to go to the rescue. ”

Although Chen Bui didn't know what kind of person Zhang Yichun was, and he rarely looked at people with colored eyes, when it came to his daughter and son-in-law, he couldn't help but say a few angry words.
