Chapter 24: Tomorrow
Chen Shaokuan actually called him in person to return to China immediately to wait for treatment, because it was immoral. Li Kongrong was shocked and couldn't cry or laugh, he had worked hard for a month, where was there any immorality? He took a few steps around the room, but ended up sitting on the couch. Chen Shaokuan's temper is famously hard, and he is also famously 'unknown', to put it bluntly, he is brain-dead. He called in person, and it seemed that he was furious, who the hell gave the eye medicine?!
If this matter is handed over to Major Li Kongrong, then maybe he will really have to cover up and leave, and as soon as he leaves, he will break off his relationship with Britain - how can he explain why he was in Chongqing to obtain information about the Nazis? Prophet or fortune teller? If there is another one, maybe he will hang up in Jiangyin. A dry of old ships against Japanese carrier-based aircraft in the narrow Jiangyin River? It may be acceptable for this to happen to Chen Shaokuan and Chen Jiliang, but he is unwilling to do it even if he is killed. At a time when air power dominates sea power, what is the difference between this and sending to death? And the last one: does he still want to ambush a Japanese aircraft carrier at Pearl Harbor with a submarine, or to bombard the Yokohama pier with a big swagger, or to gallop the ocean?
Thinking of these things, Li Kongrong's mind was chaotic, his hand touched into his arms, and he didn't touch the photo but touched the passport. The only advantage of going back is to be with Pepe, but how can he, a little naval lieutenant, protect his woman? Hide directly in the barren mountains and mountains for the rest of your life? He didn't want to live like that at all! He wants to love vigorously, and he is willing to die vigorously, not because of men's vanity, but because of men's responsibility.
"He Shuduo! He Shuduo!! Li Kongrong suddenly shouted loudly, He Shuduo is today's duty officer, and today is the weekend, and most of the students are in the villa and have not gone out.
"In... At... At... Sir! "The officer on duty, Second Lieutenant He Shuduo, ran up with a frightened face - although he had only been in Berlin for a week, Major Li Kongrong had established absolute authority in the hearts of the students.
"What about the guys from the Netherlands?" Li Kongrong's face was pale, and his eyes were murderous. Chen Shaokuan will call today instead of before, someone must have said something to him, the only people around him are Second Lieutenant Zhong Qiangong, and then there are naval cadets, and the ten people from China forgive them and don't dare to sue them, only the three from the Netherlands graduated from the same class as Lin Zhun, and Chen Shaokuan called to reprimand them two days after they came, and the matter must have been done by a few of them. Although Chen Shaokuan was walking around, now that he was in Paris, Chen Shaokuan could see the telegram as long as it reached the embassy in France.
His heart was like lightning, and Li Kongrong, who calmed down, immediately guessed the general course of events. He didn't believe that immorality meant Kong Lingyi, even Chen Shaokuan didn't dare to say it directly, immorality could only refer to Jiang Ying, and he really shouldn't have let this woman compose music in the first place!
"Blow the assembly trumpets, I have something to say." Li Kongrong was silent for a while before giving an order to He Shuduo. After a while, the assembly horn sounded, and the students in the villa were all gathered under the blue sky and white sun flag, including Lang Jiancheng.
"I know that people don't like me, and I don't care. But I didn't expect that someone would actually spread rumors and make trouble, and the telegram actually hit France? Hum! Li Kongrong looked at the three of Lang Jiancheng standing in a row, and his eyes were engraved on their faces like knives. I've been here for a few days, and I've been here for a few years, and my brain is good! Bad morals are out! You he. Damn, that eye saw that Lao Tzu was immoral?! ”
"Today, I will make it clear in front of everyone, whether it is confronted in person or public theory, I will let go of everything." Li Kongrong's eyes were on Lang Jiancheng's face at first, then on Han Zhaolin's face, and finally on Huang Tingshu's face, under his forced gaze, the three of them were sweating profusely. After being silent for a while, waiting for the three of them to sweat and be confused under the scorching sun, he said in an irresistible tone: "Who he. . . Mom's telegram, stand up and confront Lao Tzu! ”
The three of them didn't move at all, no one stood up, and Li Kongrong roared again, "Stand up!" "Still no one has come forward. He suddenly smiled and said, "I knew you wouldn't dare to stand up, He Shuduo!" ”
"Yes, sir!" He Shuduo, the officer on duty, agreed loudly and then came out of the ranks, he was really relieved at this time, he thought that there was something wrong with him or other students, but he didn't want someone to sue the chief behind his back.
"Go, take two people, move all three of their luggage out for me, just take it here, search one by one, I don't believe that I can't find the draft of the telegram!" Li Kongrong's eyes were still staring at Lang Jiancheng and the others, but he was giving orders to He Shuduo. At this time, he saw Han Zhaolin's expression the most panicked.
The commander had an order, and his subordinates didn't dare to disobey, but the scene of the search was not spectacular, and He Shuduo came back with a random telegram folded in two within three minutes of entering. The telegram was sent to the embassy in Paris yesterday, and if it was hot today, after taking a shower and changing clothes, the useless draft of the telegram was thrown on Lang Jiancheng's desk.
The telegram was in plain code, and it was taken in English, and it read: 'Yesterday I arrived in Bai, the rent is very large, the control is very strict, Li is very close to Kong, and he has an affair with a female student......
Li Kongrong did not read the telegram, but asked the officer on duty, He Shuduo, to read it on his behalf, and when he heard the sentence 'having an affair with a female student', the naval cadets present immediately laughed. The prefect had said that he was a family man, and the girl came and asked them to accompany the guests, and they had discussed how to accompany them. Unexpectedly, they hadn't said what happened to the chief and the girl, but the three new trainee officers said that the chief had an affair with the girl.
Li Kongrong also smiled, and when he got the telegram, he could count himself as evidence of his confession - Lang Jiancheng and the three of them came for four days, and in four days, he could see that he was having an affair with Jiang Ying, I really don't know what kind of eyes it is.
Li Kongrong laughed, but Lang Jiancheng's faces were sweaty and pale like dirt. While they were in the Netherlands, they received a telegram from Lin Zhun asking them to call him when they arrived in Berlin to inform him of the situation in Berlin. Lin Zhun wasn't worried that Li Kongrong would steal his position, he just wanted to know what Li Kongrong did in Berlin, so that he wouldn't be overwhelmed when he arrived in Berlin.
"What else do you have to say?!" Li Kongrong wanted to slap Lang Jiancheng three times when he took the telegram, but he was so happy that he waved his hand holding the telegram in the air and gave up.
Lang Jiancheng was silent, and Han Zhaolin and Huang Tingshu also did not move. Seeing their virtue, Li Kongrong sneered: "Don't say yes, right? Good! Come on, lock them up, and confront them when the minister comes! ”
Half an hour later, a telegram was sent from Berlin, and the French embassy received the telegram and sent it to Chen Shaokuan's residence on the same day.
"What the hell is going on over there in Berlin?" Looking at Lin Zhun, who didn't understand why he came, Zhou Yingcong asked in a low voice.
"What's going on?" Lin Zhun was inexplicable, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
"Shao Sheng's business." Zhou Yingcong stared at Lin Zhun closely, and as he knew, Lin Zhun had already sued him twice.
"Him?" Lin Zhun didn't know that there had been a change in Berlin, and he smiled: "Li Shaosheng sent a telegram to intercede?" Brother Shuchun, you don't pay attention to him, this person thinks he is handsome, so he hooks up with women everywhere, he used to be Miss Kong, and now he is a female study student......"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhou Yingcong, who was a sleek philistine, was also a little angry, and he threw the telegram sent by Li Kongrong to Lin Zhun, "Look for yourself." Later, he said: "Lang Jiancheng has been locked up by him, how big do you want things to be?" ”
Zhou Yingcong lost his temper, Lin Zhun Shi was a little moved, he took the telegram only to see that it was written: "Cha Lang Jiancheng, Han Zhaolin, and Huang Tingshu arrived in Bai less than four days, and they spread rumors and slandered the chief without knowing the truth, and now these three people have been confined ......" The telegram has not yet been read, only swept to the 'three people confinement' Lin Zhun's heart jumped, he said: "How can this Li Shaosheng be like this? ”
"Look at it." Zhou Yingcong lit a cigarette and looked at Lin Zhun who had the wrong face and was silent.
‘…… Wait for the minister to come and confront him face to face. The lowly official is small, but the honor of the soldier is inviolable, so the day the minister arrives in Germany, it is the time to confront the truth and falsehood, if this matter is true, the lowly is willing to resign; If this matter is false, please ask the minister to expel Lang Jiancheng and other rumor-mongers from the navy and dismiss the military. Li Kongrong. Anxious. ’
"Brother Shuchun, he is going to ......" The telegram was full of anger, Lin Zhun felt unwell after reading it, he didn't want to take this opportunity to drive Li Kongrong back to China, but Lin Xianxi, who read the telegram, knew that the hope of buying a boat could only be in Germany, and Li Kongrong was also in Germany, since Li Kongrong had an affair with a female student, he should take this opportunity to drive him away to reduce a threat. Who would have thought that Li Kongrong, who had always been honest, not only refused to accept it, but also found out who sent the telegram, and went on to say that this was a rumor, and he wanted to get rid of himself.
"Did Lang Jiancheng tell you?" Zhou Yingcong frowned. He guessed what was going on when he saw Lin Zhun's expression, but he still had to let Lin Zhun admit it himself.
"Yes, he said it, but they are not rumor-mongers, and the minister also said that there is no wind and no waves......" Lin Zhun said defensively.
"They have only been in Berlin for three days, and they dare to say that Shao Sheng had an affair with a female student?" Zhou Yingcong laughed angrily, "Now that things are getting bigger, Shao Sheng has already locked up a few of them, and they have to confront each other face to face, you say, who will win the confrontation?" ”
"Brother Shuchun, this ......" Lin Zhun thought of the consequences of the confrontation in the telegram, and began to be a little anxious, he said: "This confrontation can't be said that there is really no such thing, when the cruise ship, Li Shaosheng and Miss Kong ......"
"You still say!" Zhou Yingcong sighed and shook his head, "According to what you say, as long as he talks to a woman, he will have an affair?" If so, even if there is an affair, then there are many people in the world who have an affair. What about me still talking to Miss Kong? Does it mean that I also had an affair with Miss Kong? You'd better take back what you didn't have, and think about what to do with this now. ”
Hearing that Zhou Yingcong's tone seemed to be biased in favor of Li Kongrong, Lin Zhun was immediately unhappy, and he said: "Confronting is confronting, I don't believe that Lang Jiancheng will make rumors out of thin air." ”
"You!" Zhou Yingcong was furious, he didn't send the telegram to Chen Shaokuan, he just wanted to make a big thing a small thing and a small thing, but he didn't expect Lin Zhun to really get on with Li Kongrong. If you really want to confront it, this is not a confrontation, this is internal strife, and if it is spread out, the reputation of the navy will be completely ruined.
"Brother Shuchun, since he Li Kongrong dares to confront him, then why should we be afraid of him." Lin Zhun didn't care about Zhou Yingcong's anger, he had long been unpleasant to see Li Kongrong, and now if he wants to confront him, then he will confront it, anyway, he definitely didn't spread rumors.
"I'm going to be by you." Zhou Yingcong almost stomped his feet. He said goodbye, and Lin Zhun walked out of the room. But when he got to Chen Shaokuan's side, he didn't dare to go in, with Chen Shaokuan's temper, he would definitely have to jump for a while, maybe Lang Jiancheng would really open his temper. Thinking back and forth in the corridors, he finally sent a telegram to Berlin himself.
Zhou Yingcong's telegram was sent in the evening, and Li Kongrong only received it at noon the next day, and it was Major Li Kongrong who read the telegram at this time, and yesterday's diary had already explained this framing incident, and according to another of his own intentions, he was misunderstood by the minister one after another, because some people made rumors to beat the small report, and this time some were not severely punished, and there would definitely be similar incidents in the future.
Li Kongrong demanded that the matter be dealt with severely, and the major was also shocked when he saw the manuscript of the telegram that had been turned out. In order to win over Lang Jiancheng and the three of them to become his future helpers, he was extremely polite to them, who would have thought that these people would be so vicious and despicable, and the minister listened to what they said, and actually wanted to return to China immediately.
Lang Jiancheng is not a good thing, and Zhou Yingcong's guy is not enough friends, so he refused to speak for himself on the cruise, and lied to himself several times. It's good now, but he wants to remember the friendship of his fellow countrymen and don't make a big deal about it, doesn't he know that he was almost driven back to China by the minister? By the way, Zhou Yingcong must have been present at that time, and even the telegram that made him return to China was drafted by Zhou Yingcong......
Major Li Kongrong watched the telegram silently, and the chopsticks did not move, but several other naval cadets in the cafeteria devoured the food and devoured the food in a while. After that, Second Lieutenant Zhong Qiangong, who played the role of a cameo driver, sent them and Li Kongrong to the city, and these people were going to the training class, while Li Kongrong went to the embassy -- the delegation will arrive tomorrow morning, and the embassy is busy making small flags, practicing slogans, hanging lanterns, and removing garbage.
Seeing that Major Li Kongrong was coming, Yao Dingchen, the third-class secretary, immediately ran over to say hello: "Adjutant Li is here?" We are now arranging as we said at the last meeting, and we will not lose the momentum and make the Germans and the Japanese look down on us. ”
"That's good, that's good." Major Li Kongrong responded in vain. At this time, he remembered that Kong Xiangxi would arrive tomorrow morning, and he couldn't see it even if he called Zhou Yingcong back. We'll have to wait until we meet tomorrow.
