Chapter Twenty-Six: Enjoying the Honor
Chief Feng? Is there a Chief Feng in the 88th Column? The doorman asked again, and the man couldn't answer what the name of the so-called Chief Feng was. I was in a hurry, and this person simply said that he was ordered to deliver the car, if you don't want to, I'll get out of the car and leave, anyway, I won't drive back this car again!
Hey, there's anyone else doing that? Door-to-door delivery, you didn't find the owner, threw things and wanted to run? Of course, the soldiers at the gate of the barracks could not let him go, and when the two sides were arguing, there was a sudden shout from inside the barracks gate: "What's the matter?" Are you idle and have nothing to do to block the door to play? ”
As soon as the officers and soldiers turned around, yo, it was Hu Fei!
"The Commander is here! Commander Hu is here! The soldiers greeted Hu Fei one after another, and the guard squad leader ran to salute and told the story in detail. Someone sent the car, saying that it was going to be given to Chief Feng of the 88th Column.
"We only know that we have Commander Hu in the Eighty-Eight Column, and we don't know what Chief Feng is, so we didn't let him enter the camp. The leader of the convoy said he wanted to get out of the car and go back by himself, but we stopped him and didn't let him go. ”
The squad leader at the gate of the camp is also articulate, and he explained everything clearly in a few words. Hu Fei was also very curious when he heard it, just hearing that he lost something, and someone took the initiative to deliver it to the door and couldn't get it away?
When he came to him, he carefully looked at the convoy from beginning to end, and suddenly understood a general idea in his heart. Listening to the delivery representative on the front car say Chief Feng again, he was even more sure of the idea in his heart.
"Thank you, brothers, for sending the car from so far away. I am Hu Fei, the commander of the 88th Column, and I know who the Chief Feng you are talking about is. Well, then, you should first drive the car to the designated place, and I will set up two tables for the brothers, and even if you want to go back, you will have to eat and drink enough before leaving, right? I can't let people say that I'm Hu Fei snubbing the guests. Let's go! ”
Hu Fei got into the front car and squeezed into the cab of the head car with the driver and the delivery representative, while the spare driver on the head car was squeezed into the back car.
Since there is a quick response camp in the 88th Column, of course there is a parking lot. The parking lot of the fast counter-camp is quite large, and when this parking lot was first designed, Hu Fei thought of expanding the scale of the fast anti-camp camp, so in terms of the scale of this parking lot, it is no problem to park two or three hundred cars.
Hu Fei said that after the twenty new cars were parked, he immediately asked Tosang to arrange a banquet to entertain these people who had been sent over for a long time. Hu Fei personally ran and knew how difficult it was to take the convoy from the southwest to western Henan. These people were able to drive twenty cars safely, and they don't know how many ordeals they have endured along the way.
With twenty more vehicles, the size of the Rapid Reaction Battalion has nearly doubled, and the happiest one is, of course, Tosang. Not to mention using public funds to invite dinner, even if he pays out of his own pocket, he is willing. When the battalion commander of the major in military uniform led a group of subordinate officers to eat with a spring breeze on his face, these people who had sent the car from all over really felt that their hard work was not in vain.
Tosang took the guests to dinner, Hu Fei paused for a moment, and still went to the back to find Feng Yi. The two of them are close to each other, and since they have quietly helped themselves to do such a big thing, it is also the responsibility of a man to say a few good words to make others happy.
"Xiaonan, you bought those cars, right? Hehe, I knew that Chief Feng was you. Sir Feng, you have done me a great favor, thank you. ”
Hu Fei took Feng Yi's hand and said a half-truth and half-truth, Feng Yi felt sweet in his heart and dizzy in his head. I want to be polite, but I can't say a complete sentence at this time, but I can't say a complete sentence when I am usually invincible in the mall.
"No, nothing. No thanks, really no thanks. Even she was not satisfied with this.
"Hehe, as soon as Brother Fei said these good words, our little girl has not been busy in vain in the past two months." Zhang Yayi is happy to be funny. Xu Yajun and Xiuzhen nodded with a smile next to them. The four women plus one Hu Fei are completely happy.
The Spring Festival of 1942 had just passed. During the war years, people paid more attention to the Spring Festival, which was the twentieth day of the first month, and sporadic firecrackers could be heard in the streets and alleys from time to time, which was children playing with firecrackers. As for the adults, they have already started their work, and Luoyang City continues its bustling and lively.
All primary and secondary schools have opened, and radical Luoyang students have once again begun to give street speeches, exposing the shameless ambitions and bestial acts of Japanese militarism, and encouraging Chinese people to take up guns and participate in the war of resistance. As the headquarters of the First Theater of Resistance, the headquarters of the commander of the first theater of resistance seemed a little deserted.
A few years ago, the Central Military Commission issued an order to transfer General Wei Lihuang, commander of the First Theater Command, to the post of director of the General Office of the Xi'an Northwest Battalion.
The reason for this is none other than that during Wei Lihuang's tenure as commander of the First Theater, he had frequent contacts with the senior generals of the Eighth Route Army, which aroused the suspicion of the chairman of the committee. That's why Wei Lihuang and Jiang Dingwen exchanged positions with each other.
Who said it was a flat adjustment, but everyone knew that this was the commander of the guard who had his military power cut. "The bird is exhausted, the rabbit is dead, the dog is cooking" Now the birds are not exhausted, the rabbits are not dead, the Japanese devils are still killing people and setting fire in China, but Wei Lihuang, as a front-line general, has been deprived of military power, which is inevitably incomprehensible.
Wei Lihuang himself was of course not satisfied with this order, but he had no intention of disobeying the order. Resisting the orders of the central government and supporting the troops to respect themselves is something that only local warlords can do, and he Wei Lihuang is still a general of the Central Army and a general under the command of the chairman of the National Committee, and he must obey the orders of the central authorities.
Since Chief Wei decided to obey the decision of the Central Committee to take up the position of director of the Xi'an camp, no one dared to persuade him. If you persuade, you are persuading the chief of the defense to resist the Central Committee and work against the chairman! That's a head-off thing, who doesn't want to live and dare to persuade like this?
Two days later, Wei Lihuang left for Xi'an to take office. Shortly after the commander of the guard's convoy left the commander, it could not move, and the streets were full of people. As soon as the crowd saw the sign hanging the Wei Chief in the car, there was a commotion.
"Chief Wei, don't go!"
"Chief Wei, you are a pillar of the country, what should you do if you leave Luoyang?"
"I wish Chief Wei a safe journey!"
The common people said goodbye to the chief of the guard like a tsunami. Wei Lihuang, who was sitting in the car, couldn't control his tears when he saw this scene, and he got out of the car when he pulled the door, "Fathers and fellow villagers, how can Lihuang let my father look up to me so highly, I'm ashamed!" As he spoke, he waved his hand to the crowd. The shouts of the people were louder.
Seeing this scene, Wei Lihuang simply walked to the train station. According to the records of Luoyang local chronicles, only one Daotai in the Qing Dynasty had such a spectacular scene when he left office, and Wei Lihuang was the second person to enjoy this honor.
