Chapter 888 Brotherhood

In the next two days, An Yi did not appear as frequently as the outside world hoped, greeted guests and friends from all sides, and met the reporters' requests for interviews, but handed over all affairs to Yang Bin, acting director of the Pacification Office and commander of the garrison, Ye Cheng, deputy commander of the 24th Army, and others.

At the same time, Jiang Xianyun, who has already taken office as president of Southwest University of Political Science and Law, is also too busy to make the reporters who have flocked to the university nowhere to be found, and every morning is the administrative meeting held by the university, and the afternoon is the time for Jiang Xianyun to meet with officials of the Education Bureau of the Public Authority, and the presidents and academic directors of the three universities, Southwest University of Political Science and Law, Southwest University of Technology, and Syria Medical College, all participate. In the evening, Jiang Xianyun, who had worked all day, needed to rest, and what puzzled most of the *** was that Jiang Xianyun did not move into the principal's building in the picturesque school staff dormitory area, and even the school teachers did not know where to live temporarily.

The small courtyard in the west of the West Garden, surrounded by green bamboo and two towering trees, two rows of scattered southern Sichuan dwellings are very distinctive, blue bricks and gray tiles, elegant and simple, there is a flat field in the small courtyard, a hexagonal head built with camphor wood, located between the curved corridor and the site, several strong vines, the rockery stone on the edge of the pavilion is tightly wound, there is a clear and sweet ancient well in front of the rockery, the round stone carving well mouth and the mottled myth and legend pattern on it, still vivid, at a glance you know that the ancient well is the same as this courtyard, It's a long time.

This small courtyard is the residence of the adjutant Shen Fengdao, and the flat field compacted with yellow mud is where Shen Fengdao usually stretches his waist, and there is a small door on the fence wall on the south side of the courtyard, which leads to the "Syrian Economic Research Institute" next door, which is very convenient to enter and exit.

When he first moved in, Shen Fengdao fell in love with this quiet and leisurely, full of aura of the ancient courtyard at a glance, without waiting for Shen Fengdao to speak, the careful An Yi gave this garden within the garden to Shen Fengdao, the Taoist Shen Fengdao refused all expansion and decoration, even the tap water pipe was not allowed to be installed, and would rather carry a bucket and lift the well water in a leisurely manner, rather than damage the original natural features of the small courtyard.

Since he quietly came here the night before, Jiang Xianyun has become more and more fond of this simple and elegant courtyard, sitting in the pavilion, enjoying the harmony and nature of dark fragrance and quiet grass and trees, tasting the native Maojian tea in southern Sichuan, the fatigue of his body and the mundane affairs of the day drifted away, making him relaxed and happy, and his body and mind are comfortable.

For two consecutive nights, Jiang Xianyun talked with An Yi and Shen Fengdao all night long, and did not say goodbye until the sky was light, and major decisions and implementation principles related to the fate of An Yi and An Jiajun, such as major military and political affairs, development directions, phased goals, and foreign relations, took shape on these two nights.

Jiang Xianyun's far-sightedness and foresight, his wholehearted assistance and support for An Yi, as well as his broad-mindedness and noble character, made An Yi and Shen Fengdao admire him a lot. During the deep conversation, An Yi, who was moved several times, stood up respectfully and respectfully with his disciples.

Jiang Xianyun held An Yi's hand every time, and sincerely demanded that An Yi must distinguish between priorities and priorities, distinguish between the top and bottom, condense the majesty and demeanor of the ruler from the bits and pieces, and must not be tied up by too many feelings, because An Yi not only represents himself, but is concerned with the well-being and future of the 200,000 soldiers of An Jiajun and tens of millions of people in Sichuan, Hunan, Yunnan and Guizhou.

On 20 May, the first phase of the Anjia Army's major disarmament plan proceeded as scheduled.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the retirement ceremony of 4,500 officers and men of the 5th Garrison Division of the South Sichuan Garrison Force, the battalion of the garrison headquarters located in the middle of the city, began in the noisy sky of military flags and drums.

Standing on the platform, An Yi, commander of the An Jiajun, Zhang Zhizhong, head of the Central Military Investigation Mission, Yang Bin, commander of the garrison, Deng Bin, deputy commander, Zhao Dongquan, chief of staff, Li Fuqiang, the first commander of the Fifth Division, Ye Cheng, deputy commander of the 24th Army, and other more than ten generals and colonels, the 4,500 brothers who wore and took off their collar badges and cockades on the gazing platform, their eyes were red and they could not speak.

The 4,500 brothers wearing big red flowers in the audience were already full of pain and tears, and thousands of people from all walks of life, more than 100 Chinese and foreign journalists, and more than 5,000 officers and men in the army were moved to tears.

The retirement ceremony was presided over by Colonel Wu Xianwei, the party representative of the garrison headquarters and the director of political training, who had served as the acting chief of education of the Nanchang non-commissioned officer school and led the garrison to participate in the Central Plains War and the southwest of the army.

Commander Yang Bin's second speech, he didn't say much, except praise is nostalgia, and in the end it is still encouragement, a deep and meaningful words, real, thousands of brothers listened to tears and choked up.

General Zhang Zhizhong was invited to say a few words, and Zhang Zhizhong, who was unprepared, stepped forward, saluted the 4,500 soldiers in the audience, stood for a long time, and retreated silently. This minute-long military salute included all the thanks and expectations in Zhang Zhi's center.

Finally, An Yi, who was wearing a straight general's dress, walked to the front of the stage and saluted solemnly at the request of Wu Xianwei, glanced around, returned to the microphone, swallowed his dry throat hard, and took a deep breath:

"Brothers, put your hands down...... At this moment, the 1st Division of our garrison stationed in Changning, the 2nd Division stationed in Naxi, the 3rd Division stationed in Gaoxian, and the 4th Division stationed in Luzhou, a total of more than 38,000 old brothers, like all of you, are holding a glorious but sad discharge ceremony. Here, I An Yi would like to say a word to all the brothers, brothers, thank you, our army thanks you, our people thank you, no matter where you go in the future and what profession you are engaged in, you will always have the merit of reunifying the motherland and protecting the territory and the people, you will always have the glory of revolutionary soldiers, and you will always be the good brothers of my An Yi and all the soldiers! ”

The audience applauded thunderously, and a pair of tearful tiger eyes were full of excitement and pride.

An Yi continued: "Brothers, there are many reasons why our army is disarmed, and there are many reasons that are very urgent, and your party representative has said it very thoroughly, but I see that many brothers still have a lot of confusion in their eyes, and they are reluctant to leave our big family with glorious traditions and great military achievements. It is no wonder that the brothers, I am just as sad and reluctant, and so are many of the old brothers on the stage, but in spite of this, we cannot help but disarm. ”

An Yi took a deep breath and raised his voice: "I won't say the big truth, just say a few words from the heart that your party representatives and superiors are embarrassed to say: brothers, you should also start a family, including me An Yi, no one wants to go to war, and no one wants to die on the glorious battlefield with the regret of never marrying a wife or having a child in his life."

Although it is said that dying on the battlefield is the glory of every revolutionary soldier, and sacrificing his life for the country is the best destination for every soldier, in such a historical period, the heavy responsibility of building the homeland still needs to be borne by our brothers who are in the prime of life. The brothers have been stationed in southern Sichuan for a long time, and have seen with their own eyes the rapid changes around them, the smiling faces of their fathers and villagers, the rising of more and more factories and high-rise buildings, the opening of wide highways and bridges, and the paddy fields and strong sorghum. Every bit of achievement and every bit of progress here embodies the sweat and hard work of the brothers, and the people will not forget you! ”

The applause sounded like a tide, and the soldiers and people from all walks of life applauded warmly and cheered in unison, and the original sadness was replaced by joy and pride.

An Yi raised his hand to suppress the long-lasting applause, and once again cheered up all the retired brothers: "Brothers, although you have retired from the army, most of you will enter the factories and enterprises opened by our army, strictly speaking, you will still belong to our army.

"Today, I have received the unanimous consent of the generals and colonels of the Headquarters of the 24th Army and the Headquarters of the Garrison Force, and I hereby make a request to you: Whether the brothers go home to farm, marry wives and have children, or enter various factories and enterprises, you are all good brothers of all the officers and men of our army.

"Don't be embarrassed, because we are brothers, we are brothers who fought together in life and death, and jointly created all the glory and glory of our army. Unleash an indomitable blow to all invaders! Please, brethren! ”

The audience suddenly boiled, the earth-shattering applause and cheers were deafening, and the people from all walks of life who were deeply moved sounded the gongs and drums, lit the firecrackers in advance, and the moving scene of unity was pushed forward in An Yi's salute.

Zhang Zhizhong on the stage looked at An Yi and secretly sighed, he didn't expect An Yi to have such a clever arrangement, looking at the boiling crowd under the stage, listening to the slogans of the majestic mountains and rivers, Zhang Zhizhong knew very well what An Yi's last words meant, although the powerful An Jia army disarmed 120,000, but once the war requires, as long as An Yi ascended to the heights, I am afraid that in just a few days, fifty or sixty thousand new troops can be recruited, and almost all of them are experienced and excellent veterans in the year of fighting, from this point of view, After the disarmament of the An Jia Army not only will not be weakened, but will be stronger, more deterrent, who wants to move the interests of An Yi and his group, I am afraid that there will be double retaliation, from the establishment of the An Jia Army to the present, every soldier in this army with brilliant achievements, I am afraid that An Yi's character is deeply imprinted in his heart.

None of the reporters was not moved by this moving scene, and none of them were deeply moved by the cohesion of the officers and men of the An Jiajun, and no one has ever seen the discharge ceremony into such an army throughout the country and even the world, especially An Yi's last clear and tough statement, which made more than 100 Chinese and foreign reporters and hundreds of people from all walks of life from all over the country think deeply.
