Chapter 208: The Arrival of Zhou Weiren
Tian Zheng was restless in the military department, and the kind of admiration and awe for the great man in his heart accounted for a large factor. This made Tian Zheng, who had always been calm and would not have such a big mood swing no matter what situation he encountered on the battlefield, became fifteen buckets of water in his stomach at this moment, seven up and eight down.
Wang Mei looked at Tian Zheng, who was not smiling on weekdays and was still calm and calm before the collapse of Mount Tai, the leader of the army with the highest combat effectiveness in China and the tiger general of war. At this moment, she became like an ugly daughter-in-law who was about to meet her in-laws, walking back and forth in the reception room, muttering to herself, "Which great man will be here this time?" Is it Commissioner Mao? No, Commissar Mao should have been commanding and rectifying the troops in Yan'an at this time, and coordinating with Yan Xishan about the Red Army's northward march to resist Japan. Commissar Mao will definitely not be able to leave. Then there is only Zhou Weiren? Zhou Weiren was born in the Whampoa Military Academy and is an intellectual with a history of military education. In the early stage of the development of the Red Army, Zhou Weiren had been working together vertically and horizontally, threading the needle and leading the way, and acting as a diplomat of the Red Army. This time, if it is really as Wang Mei said, if the Central Committee of the Red Army cares so much about this meeting, it is very likely that Zhou Weiren will come! ”
Tian Zheng muttered in a low voice, just thinking that it should be Zhou Weiren's arrival, he was a little more stable, but when he thought of meeting Zhou Weiren, he immediately became enthusiastic again! Fidgeting, I asked the guard to prepare hot water so that I could make tea at any time, and checked that the cigarettes were indeed in good condition. After that, I went to the cooking class of the military headquarters to check it out and make sure that it was all exquisite dishes. He also specially asked a few chefs in the cooking class of the military department to invite the chef of a restaurant in Wanyuelou in Tongzhou City to come back. Zhou Weiren, whose ancestral home is Huai'an, Jiangsu, is mainly Huaiyang cuisine with a slight Shanghai flavor. Tongzhou city is full of restaurants. Only Wanyuelou is based on Huaiyang cuisine, and the chief chef is the authentic successor of Huaiyang cuisine. One hand of Huaiyang cuisine can eat Tian Zheng, who is from the Central Plains, and people are full of praise. Compared with the Huaiyang cuisine of a five-star hotel that he had eaten before the time travel in his memory, Tian Zheng felt that the chef of Wanyuelou made it more delicious. The taste is more delicate!
"Guard, you go to the street and buy some wine again! Remember to be on the daughter of the good red and aged flower carving! Tian Zheng was afraid that the wine brought by the chef of Wanyuelou was not authentic, so he asked the guards to go to a few more restaurants to buy it. Daughter red and aged Huadiao are both famous rice wines in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Most of them are unearthed and drunk after several years of cellaring. In particular, some of the daughters were buried in the ground when they were born, and then taken out of the ground when the daughters were married at the age of 18 to entertain guests. The wines in this category are good enough to be old, with a full aroma that sticks to the lips and has an attractive amber color in the glass. I don't know how many times more fragrant than some well-known red wines in Western countries!
Wang Mei looked at Tian Zheng, who didn't know what to do, but showed a sincere and innocent welcome and hospitality like a child. The corners of Wang Mei's mouth raised a warm smile, and in a corner of her heart, she also felt that this steel hero also had an innocent side like a child!
7 p.m.!
After a period of turmoil, Tongzhou City stabilized social order due to the stationing of the military headquarters of the 54th Group Army and the 1st Guard Regiment and the 2nd Guard Regiment. Now the moment is that every house is closed and the lights are out. Due to safety considerations, some restaurants and Qinglou Cinemas that are open late or even overnight have also been forced to close. The city gates are on the north side and east side. The west side was closed on three sides, and the sentries stood guard on the city wall, leaving only the south side of the city gate wide open, and the second regiment of guards stood guard along the way to welcome the arrival of the Red Army's central special detachment! Tian Zheng did so. On the one hand, it is out of respect for the great men, and on the other hand, it is for the sake of the safety of the great men. After all, it is a noisy city, and the streets are mixed. In case there was a sneak attack and assassination of a spy fishing in troubled waters, the central special task force suffered losses. Then Tian Zheng is too late to regret 10,000!
Tian Zheng was outside the south gate of Tongzhou City, waiting for thousands of people. It seemed that time had slowed down, and at about half past seven in the evening, a group of thirteen people dressed in various costumes similar to those of hunters and peasants in mountain villages finally arrived late! Tian Zheng saw a tall young man wearing a knee trench coat and a felt hat walking in front of him from a distance! The face of the national character has a dusty face and stubble, but because the distance is too far, it is not clear to see. However, this does not prevent Tian Zheng from seeing the unique temperament belonging to Zhou Weiren from that face!
Zhou Weiren looks very young at the moment, that is, he is in his twenties, about the same age as Tian Zheng at this time, and even has a slight immaturity on his face, but his expression and movements are quite capable, obviously he has been heartbroken by so many years of Red Army work, smoothed out immaturity, and left only capable and resolute!
"Premier Zhou!" Tian Zheng ran over from afar, but he didn't pay attention for a while, saluted a military salute, made a gesture when he was inspected by the peak, and involuntarily shouted out the words that had been brewing in his heart for a long time!
"What are you calling me?" After Zhou Enlai raised his hand to return the salute, he asked with a smile.
"I call you Premier Zhou!" Tian Zheng replied, but soon smiled, "I shouted wrong, I should call you Comrade Enlai!" ”
Tian Zheng didn't realize for a while that this was not the time when Zhou Enlai presided over the work of the country's premier after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and now comrades in the party still call each other positions plus comrades, or surnames and positions. So he changed his words and shouted, "Comrade Enlai!" But after this shout, Tian Zheng's heart was entangled and sweating. What I never dreamed of, I didn't expect that I not only met Zhou Weiren, but also called Zhou Weiren "Comrade Enlai"!
Perhaps, only a time-traveler like himself can have such a mentality!
After Zhou Weiren and his entourage returned to the military headquarters with Tian Zheng, Tian Zheng immediately presented Shanglu's famous tea and special cigarettes. Although Zhou Weiren is not as big a smoker as Mao Weiren, Zhou Weiren also smoked when he worked in the early days of the Red Army, but he didn't smoke too fiercely! Zhou Weiren took a sip of tea and nodded, "This tea is good, it looks like Longjing before the Ming Dynasty!" It has not changed its flavor at this time, and it is still in this troubled place, Commander Tian has bothered! ”
Tian Zheng smiled without saying a word, took out a cigarette himself, and motioned for everyone to smoke. After everyone lit it together, Zhou Weiren took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and savored it, and spit out the smoke for a long time.
"Good smoke! The taste is mellow and not pungent to the throat, and it is much more comfortable than the horn in our revolutionary border area! Zhou Weiren nodded in praise. The two accompanying officers beside Zhou Weiren also looked admiring.
"This is the mellow flue-cured tobacco produced by our Liaocheng Cigarette Factory. Now we're pumping the special alcohol type. Basically, every thousand catties of high-quality tobacco leaves can select high-quality raw materials to make less than fifty catties of special alcohol cigarettes. Moreover, a high-polymerization plant filter is added to the back of this cigarette to ensure maximum filtration of impurities and large solid harmful substances, and the entrance is not spicy. In our Chinese country and even all parts of the world, this kind of cigarette can also be regarded as a rare fine cigarette! Tian Zheng said with a smile.
"And I also prepared a few tables of wine and food for all the guests who came from afar! Guards, inform the cooking class, in the military cafeteria, prepare food and drinks, and open meals! Tian Zheng said to the guards with excitement and excitement on his face.
Tian Zheng waited for Zhou Weiren and his party to finish washing and changing, and everyone walked towards the military cafeteria together! (To be continued......)
