Chapter VII: Allegiance

The naval attachΓ©'s office was discussing important matters, and Colonel Xu Bozhou, who was smoking in his room, was suddenly called to the secret room by Second Lieutenant Zuo Shuping, at this time Hu Weike was listening to the conversation in the naval attachΓ©'s office next door, and when Xu Bozhou came in and picked up the earpiece, he happened to hear Yan Kici's kind words to comfort Li Kongrong, Xu Bozhou was suddenly a little worried, he was afraid that Li Kongrong would be bewitched by Yan Keats. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Professor Yan, I am a soldier, the task of a soldier is to fight, the navy does not fire artillery when it is 128, it is because there is no order from above, and when we fire artillery when Jinshanwei is in Jinshanwei, it is an order from above." Li Kongrong smiled bitterly, he didn't expect Yan Keats to be pro-communist.

"Then what if Jin Shanwei didn't fire the cannon that time?" Yan Keats asked, "You are also human beings, and you should also understand that the Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous moment, the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species are just around the corner, and every Chinese must rise up to resist the Japanese, and there is an order from above to open fire, and if there is no order from above, you should also fire ......"

As he spoke, Yan Keats took some of his remarks in France and some of Wu Yuzhang's reasoning -- before he came to Germany, he accompanied Wu Yuzhang to carry out propaganda and anti-Japanese propaganda in France, and considering some of the previous policies and practices of the national government, he naturally thought that Chang Kaishen was not completely anti-Japanese, and he was very complaining about this. He now bluntly said to Li Kongrong that he only hoped that people like Li Kongrong would understand the great significance of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and not embark on a crooked path because they listened to Chang Kaishen's traitorous government.

With what law of crystal Yan Keats said just now, Li Kongrong couldn't say that he didn't expect it, but he couldn't imagine that even scientists were pro-communist, he thought it was just some **** literati and young students who were pro-communist. However, considering that Yan Keats came from France and had a good impression of France, he was a little relieved, and France was one of the birthplaces of communism.

'Wow', the match was lit, Li Kongrong lit a cigarette, Yan Keats just said on the head, but this 'Wow' made him a little uncomfortable - this is Germany, not France; In front of him was Colonel Lee Kong-young, a rookie in the navy, who had an idea to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese, while he himself propagated anti-Japanese propaganda in front of him.

"Colonel Lee, it seems that I have too much to say." Yan Keats said.

"No, no." Li Kongrong smiled, "But I am already a soldier below, and a soldier should take obedience to orders as his duty." ”

Speaking of which, Li Kongrong is so gentle and gentle, not moved by his words at all, Yan Keats also slackened, he also smiled: "I always feel that Colonel Li is a model for my country's soldiers and a hero of the nation......"

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Li Kongrong hurriedly postponed, "I'd rather be a bear." He said.

"Puff ......" Yan Keats' student, the girl with braids smiled, and Li Kongrong explained embarrassedly: "Whoever wants to call me a hero, I want to do a few face-folding things immediately to prove that I am not a hero......"

"Why?" Yan Keats was very surprised, when he gave a speech to overseas Chinese students in France, he was vigorously promoting Li Kongrong as a national hero, but he didn't think that this national hero himself didn't want to be a hero.

"Can you be a prostitute as a hero? Can you eat watermelon without giving money? Can you marry several aunts? Can you be corrupt and take bribes? Li Kongrong asked rhetorically, making Yan Keats and He Zehui drop their jaws in shock. None of that. As for me, I don't have to do these things, but I always have the right to do these things, but being a hero is different, you can't go to a brothel, the newspapers will report it; If you can't eat and don't give money, public opinion will condemn it; If you can't marry several aunts, the women will have to criticize; You can't collect black money, which will make the party-state black. I'm a little person, the little people have a lot of problems, and at the same time I enjoy it, so it's better to leave the big thing of being a hero to others. ”

Yan Keats spoke before, the atmosphere was very serious, Li Kongrong made strange remarks, and the atmosphere began to be witty, which suddenly made Yan Keats cry and laugh, and Xu Bozhou, who was listening next door, scratched his ears and cheeks, he felt that Brother Hansheng was too funny.

After being embarrassed for a while in the naval attachΓ©'s room, Yan Keats said, "Why does Colonel Li have such thoughts?" ”

"Me? I have been thinking this way since I was a child, and since I was a child, I have felt that those classmates who study hard hate and pity, and I think those classmates who are cadres are ridiculous. Li Kongrong recalls his elementary school days with a smile on his face. That's it when I grow up, Jin Shanwei is just an idea I came up with by chance, or I came up with it when I was massaging with Colonel Xu next door in the massage parlor, I didn't kill a single Japanese, this is all the merit of the front-line soldiers, I'm really nothing. ”

Li Kongrong said that the soldiers on the front line, the atmosphere was finally no longer witty, and Yan Keats suddenly felt that he couldn't see through the person in front of him, so he stopped talking. Li Kongrong saw that he didn't mean anything, and began to turn things back to the point, "Is Professor Yan's family still in China?" ”

"Yes, it's still in China, in Beiping." Speaking of his family, Yan Keats had some worries.

"Beiping? It's gone! Li Kongrong said with concern, "I should lend my family out as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, I think so too, but at the moment there is a war in the country, there is no suitable shipping schedule." Yan Keats said regretfully.

"Don't make a boat, you can make a plane and go back." Li Kongrong suggested.

"Airplanes?" Yan Keats shook his head even more, he was not unaware of the existence of a plane, but the air ticket to Hong Kong cost 135 pounds[note 49], more than 2,300 yuan in United Nations dollars, which was more than his annual salary, which was really a huge amount of money.

A literati will never cry poor, but if you can't see that he is crying poor, it's your fault. Li Kongrong felt that Yan Keats should not have enough money, so he said, "Professor Yan, I will arrange this matter." When can you go? ”

"This, this ......" Yan Keats wanted to postpone it, but he didn't want Li Kongrong to say again: "The navy is also very anxious about various projects, if you don't have anything else, the sooner you go back, the more helpful it will be for the navy, time waits for no one." ”

"Since the navy is in a hurry, then I'll go back early." Seeing this, Yan Keats pushed the boat down, after all, he was worried about his family in Beiping. "But I still have to go back to France, this, is it easy to arrange from France? Or do you want to come back to Germany? ”

"It's also possible to walk from France." Li Kongrong nodded, "The flight is from London to Hong Kong." This time, my adjutant, Lieutenant Zhong Qiangong, will also go back with him, and he will coordinate with you on domestic affairs, and he will also be responsible for the relevant expenses. Although Shanghai has fallen, the Japanese have not occupied the concession, and he will be responsible for recruiting relevant personnel in the Shanghai concession, and I hope that you will assist him in his work. ”

"This affirmation, this affirmation. It's all for the sake of resisting Japan, it's all for resisting Japan. Yan Keats finally felt the Navy's respect for talents, and at least taking a plane back was a special treatment.

After continuing to talk in depth for a while, Yan Keats got up to take his leave, and Li Kongrong instructed Zhong Qiangong to send him to a better hotel -- from now on, Yan Keats's expenses would be hung up on the account of the Swiss Nine-Tailed Fox Ordnance Manufacturing Company.

"Brother Hansheng, this Yan Keats ......" After Yan Keats left, Xu Bozhou came uninvited, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was Yan Keats. He's very close to the Communist Party. ”

As soon as Xu Bozhou said Yan Keats, Li Kongrong's heart was tight, he did not forget that the general director of the German Renaissance Society was Chen Jiesheng before, and now he is Xu Bozhou. Moreover, in the case of Germany, the communist movement among overseas Chinese and students was largely extinct, all thanks to the Risorgimen. "I'm looking for him just hoping that he can help find some talents after he returns home, the navy relies on technology to eat, our technology is not as good as people, and we will suffer a loss if we fight." Li Kongrong looked at Xu Bozhou with a smile, took out a cigarette and lit one for him.

"What if he wants to find you the Communist Party?" Xu Bozhou smoked a cigarette, but he didn't sit down. "You know, he and Communist Party veteran Wu Yuzhang just gave speeches in France last month. Several students are also Communists, and one of them is called, called, and called Lu Huang, who is the Communist Party, and he also gave a speech at the Berlin Anti-Japanese Federation last year. His student today is called He Zehui, and Huang Qixiang came this spring to hold a 128 commemorative meeting, and she also spoke at the meeting. These people say that they are talking about anti-Japanese resistance, but in fact they are reactionary, and they say that they represent all overseas Chinese students in Germany, there are only a dozen people, and they can only represent the chaotic party! ”

At the 128th commemorative meeting this spring, Huang Qixiang convened a meeting of the people of the Anti-United Nations, and the military attache office asked the German police to go in and arrest people with a phone call, and the people of the Anti-United Nations did not dare to go directly to the military attache office, so they had to go to the embassy to petition, and finally the matter was resolved, but this was also the last activity of the Anti-United Nations, and in Germany, where the Nazis were in power, the Anti-United Nations could not survive at all.

Xu Bozhou was probably showing his merits and also advising Li Kongrong not to get close to the pro-communist elements, but Li Kongrong did not think that these people were dangerous, he was just worried about his company's leakage -- he wanted to make money to beat the Japanese, and if the leak could not be sold exclusively, what money would he make. At the same time, he also felt that he had underestimated the complexity of this era, and Yan Keats's background was unexpected for him.

"Then I'll have to pay attention." Li Kongrong thought about the Manhattan project in the United States, there were many Soviet and Russian spies in it, and if there were some espionage cases on the side ......of the nine-tailed fox, he didn't believe in any technology sharing.

"Be sure to pay attention!" Li Kongrong didn't say anything wrong about Yan Keats just now, so Xu Bozhou came over to advise him, and now seeing that Li Kongrong recognized his opinion, he found a chair to sit down. He said: "Can't the Navy's project be carried out together with the Army?" He felt that he had made a mistake, and immediately corrected: "What projects does your navy have?" ”

The word 'project' is a modern language, and Li Kongrong said that as soon as Xu Bozhou said 'project', Li Kongrong chuckled in his heart, and he suddenly felt that Xu Bozhou must have overheard his conversation with Yan Keats just now. He suppressed his uneasiness and forced a smile: "What can be a project, isn't it just a little gadget." The army is a big tree, and if we do it together with the army, the army will send a report to the high command, and our navy will not be able to leave anything. ”

"This ......," Xu Bozhou laughed, he didn't think what Li Kongrong said was wrong, China has always attached importance to the army and neglected the navy. Brother Hansheng, then don't get involved with those people, you will definitely be in trouble when the time comes. ”

"This little brother will pay attention, and besides, this is a few people studying things, so there is so much trouble." Li Kongrong finally returned to normal, but he had already scolded the Fuxing Society hundreds of times in his heart, and he would never dare to talk about important matters here in the future.

"Brother Hansheng asked you something, what do you think of the Fuxing Society?" Xu Bozhou asked.

"Of course I've heard of this." LI Kongrong Dao,

"I think my brother is also a sensible person, so why not join the Fuxing Society?" In the past, the two only talked about Fengyue, but now with the excuse of Yan Keats, Xu Bozhou finally said what he had been thinking for a long time. He was afraid that Li Kongrong would not agree, and said: "The Fuxing Society is the Blue Coat Society, and it is part of the most loyal party and state and the most loyal leader, and the chairman of the committee is completely aware of and fully supports this." Brother Tianzhong talent, if you join the company, why can't you gallop across the ocean? Why can't you pass that hurdle early and become a rear admiral. ”

When Xu Bozhou said, Li Kongrong's eyes lit up, but after he finished speaking, he said: "The Fujian people value the friendship of the country, if I join the Fuxing Society, then the navy will definitely not be able to get mixed up, the rear admiral may be able to do it, but it is impossible to gallop across the ocean." ”

"And the Lightning School!" Xu Bozhou said, "Ouyang Ge of the Electric Thunder School has an accident, and it has become a mess, if the elder brother can join the club, he will definitely be the best candidate for the principal of the Electric Thunder School." The electric mine school now has torpedo boats, and it will not be a problem to order several submarines in the future. Besides, China's navy has not been completely unified since the Northern Expedition, and it will definitely be unified after the Anti-Japanese War. If the elder brother doesn't seize this opportunity, he will definitely regret it in the future. ”

"Still won't work." Li Kongrong pretended to think for a while, and then shook his head reluctantly, he said: "The navy does not intervene in partisan disputes, if I join the society, the old house in Fuzhou will definitely be set on fire, and the ancestral grave will not be saved." ”

Perhaps it was Li Kongrong's reluctance that made Xu Bozhou see some hope, he said: "Brother, the old house can be rebuilt after it burns, can it still be there if the opportunity is gone?" ”

"Yes. The ancestral tomb of the old house is still there, the children and grandchildren are still there, and the children and grandchildren are still there, so it is natural to be a general. If the old house burns down and the ancestral grave is splashed with something, how will you be promoted and make a fortune in the future? Li Kongrong said seriously. Isn't it just to pass on the children and grandchildren and let the future generations live well? ”

Xu Bozhou is talking about Li Kongrong's opportunity, and Li Kongrong is talking about his children and grandchildren, and the meaning contained in it is very clear: the leader will die after all, and the country will change, who can calculate the future? As long as the Li family is prosperous and multiplies, why worry about not having a good time.

"Brother!" Xu Bozhou originally wanted to snort and leave, but the two knew each other very well after all, and he criticized: "You have such a feudal and backward mentality. ”

"That brother doesn't give birth to a son?" Li Kongrong was speechless with a word, he was a son who gave birth to four daughters. "The official is big, no matter how much money is and how wide it is, we can't spend it all, and won't it be passed on to our children and grandchildren when the time comes? Therefore, the heavens and the earth are big, and the descendants are the greatest, and it is better to be loyal to anyone than to be loyal to the children and grandchildren. (To be continued.) )
