In the simple principal's living room, Chiang Kai-shek, who had already received the news, was very happy, and he informed the secretary to call the heads of various departments to meet with him the outstanding young people who had been looking for a long time. In addition to Liao Zhongkai, the party representative of the military academy who has been busy for a long time, and Zhou, the deputy director of the Political Department who has the task of outreach, Vice President Li Jishen, Director of Education Fang Dingying, former Director of Education Wang Bailing, Chief Instructor He Yingqin, Director of the Political Department Shao Lizi, Director of the Professor Department Li Duo, Director of the Training Department Zheng Zheng, Chief Adviser Bai Libenov, and Engineer Adviser Hu Lin were very happy to come to take a look, and everyone was full of curiosity about An Yi, who had not shown up for a long time.

After a brief briefing, An Yi was led into the living room by Zhang Dingli, director of the president's office, and Hu Zongnan and seven others were also called in together. An Yi, who was hurriedly adjusting his mentality, was a little red, and his skin had turned a lot whiter after more than two months of cultivation, so the blush on his face was more conspicuous, seeing Hu Zongnan and the others standing up straight in a neat salute, An Yi had to bow deeply to express his reverence and greetings.

The leaders all stared at the tall and handsome An Yi carefully, and felt that the handsome young man in front of him was satisfactory in terms of figure and appearance except for the hair that had grown a little, and his humble and shy expression showed his sincerity, which did not match the brave image of everyone imagining that he drove madly and broke through two obstacles and trampled on a fortress.

Chiang Kai-shek, who was sitting in the center, looked at each other and his colleagues for a moment and smiled, and a pleasant chuckle immediately sounded in the living room. The battle of Longyan Cave left a very deep impression on us, your sudden appearance made the stalemate of the entire battlefield be broken, and won a valuable offensive opportunity for our army, and the contribution you made was very remarkable! Hehe, I heard that He Jinhan and Chen Geng have been looking for you during this time, and you avoided you and slipped away quietly when they saw you twice, why is this? ”

An Yi was even more nervous, he didn't expect Lao Jiang to know so clearly, and when he came to ask about this embarrassing matter, he couldn't say that he didn't sell out of cigarette paste and didn't have time to take care of these bosses, right? But now that I asked, I couldn't help but answer!

An Yi's mouth moved nervously twice: "This is my mistake, I have been thinking about how I didn't see a single figure after the battle that day, did everyone forget me?" Later, I learned that I rushed into the creek with the car, and the sappers of the teaching regiment seized the opportunity to rush up and build a bridge on my head with a wooden door panel, and the people who stayed behind to clean the battlefield did not notice that there was a broken car under the black bridge deck, let alone that I was in the broken car, but when I woke up, it was already the next morning, if it were not for the help of the local peasant association's self-defense captain Sanbo, who led more than 100 people to help, carried the car ashore and sent it back to the city with people and carts with oxen, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out myself. ”

Everyone laughed when they heard An Yi say it so interestingly, and even Li Jishen, who has never been able to see a smile, couldn't help but feel that the kid in front of him was so honest and cute.

Li Jishen suddenly patted his forehead and said to Lao Jiang beside him: "I understand now, some time ago, the division commander below asked me, was the spectacle of nine bulls pulling a broken car parade organized by our military academy?" Several of their patrols were deeply affected by the large procession of the parade, and they all participated, and after the parade, they didn't know why they were marching and which department organized it? I'm still curious. During that time, there were parades every day to celebrate tens of thousands of people, and the momentum was bigger than the other, and I didn't continue to pay attention to it when I was busy with official business. ”

"So the first grand parade celebration of our invasion of Guangzhou was initiated by this young man in front of us?" Shao Lizi asked in surprise, and everyone immediately looked at An Yi.

An Yi hurriedly explained: "No, no! That incident was misunderstood, it wasn't intentional, and no one knew it would turn out like that! At the beginning, dozens of enthusiastic Self-Defense Forces drove a few cows to drag me and the car back to the city, but there were more and more people walking, and the words of the Self-Defense Forces were passed around and finally became a big thing, and when I entered the city, there were countless people before and after, and I was scared to the steering wheel in the car, and when I arrived at the entrance of the alley leading to the backyard of our 'Taichang' trading house, I begged Sanbo to hurry up and drive the oxen to pull the car in. I was terrified at the time, and I still regret it, knowing that I wouldn't want this broken car. ”

Everyone laughed in surprise, Hu Zongnan also laughed crookedly, and it was not easy for him to stand up straight, and it took a few minutes of laughter before everyone calmed down, and they had a good impression of An Yi in front of them.

Lao Jiang touched his bare head and smiled at Shao Lizi, who nodded knowingly and turned to An Yi:

"Xiao An, your official words are very good! I've also heard that you're very eloquent, your surname is straightforward, and you always bring laughter to your friends, and we all feel the same way about what you said just now, haha! ”

Shao Lizi couldn't help laughing again, several bosses on the side were infected by it and laughed again, the gentle Shao Lizi put away his smile and asked kindly: "Mr. Ou Yaoting, the owner of the firm you work for, is a well-known enlightened and wealthy businessman in Guangdong and Hong Kong, and is also our good friend, he has always supported our revolutionary cause, has extraordinary knowledge and rare political consciousness, I heard that Mr. Ou Yaoting values you very much, presumably Xiao An has a certain understanding of the revolution and the Sanming Cooking Righteousness advocated by Mr. Zhongshan, right?" ”

An Yi knew that what he was most worried about was coming, and he didn't know how to answer it after thinking about it, and beads of sweat appeared on his head.

Lao Jiang smiled slightly: "Xiao An, don't be nervous, just say whatever you want, no one will laugh at you if you say something wrong, say it, be bold!" ”

An Yi nodded involuntarily: "I...... I didn't seriously study Mr. Sun's Sanming Cooking, and some of the things I came into contact with were all from newspapers, and I couldn't say it well, and I didn't know how to say it...... I remember that on the day I first wandered to Guangzhou, I was almost beheaded as a merchant army, which stimulated me a lot, and I couldn't get up after a few days of illness, and then I slowly learned about the merchant army, Chen Jiongming, who opposed the revolution, and what the warlords Yang Ximin and Liu Zhenhuan did. The reason why I unexpectedly appeared on the battlefield of Longyan Cave that day was because I was held by Yang Ximin's Yunnan military gun to help them drive military supplies to prepare for war, and the reason why I helped them drive for forty-four days was because if I didn't go, those evil Yunnan troops would really burn down the business house of our boss Mr. Ou, and on the night they requisitioned the car, more than 100 people surrounded the business house with torches, and beat the shopkeeper Chen, and even the ninth uncle, who was in his sixties, was also beaten, so I had to go with them, and I couldn't save the car if I didn't go. The firm can't save it, and it is estimated that the lives of the shopkeeper Chen and his colleagues can't be saved. ”

An Yi's mouth was dry when he said this, he swallowed his throat and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "I just went, and every day under the supervision of the officers of the Yunnan Army, I went to one position after another, with bullets, sacks, rice and opium. On the night before the battle at Longyan Cave, I was ordered to pull a cart of sacks to Slender Dog Ridge, and saw more than a thousand people who had been forcibly pulled in and tortured to death. After unloading the sack for a while, dozens of people who could no longer stand it suddenly threw down their burdens and logs and fled, and the Dian army immediately opened fire, and dozens of people were all killed in the blink of an eye. There was a child who was less than fifteen years old, and he ran towards me in a panic, and I could see his face in the firelight and shouted, 'Don't shoot, I stopped him and didn't shoot', as a result, the soldiers who were chasing him didn't shoot, the guard company commander who had been supervising me for dozens of days who was standing behind me shot, the new German shell gun exploded the child's head with one shot, I had already stretched out my hands to hug the child who would never escape, and wanted to stop and help him intercede, who knows, he died in front of my toes, I held him and my brain was in a mess, and the hot blood and brain flowed to my chest I woke up and questioned the guard company commander, and he gave me two kicks ......"

An Yi's eyes were moist and he couldn't speak, there was silence in the living room, and Fang Dingying also took off his glasses and wiped his eyes.

An Yi sniffed, and then said: "I returned to Xidaying that night, pulled a cart of opium smoke and rushed to the position of Hu Sishun Dian Army in Longyan Cave, and met Huang Jie and Song Xilian lying in the sawmill ditch before dawn the next day. Shortly after noon, a company of sappers of the Yunnan army accidentally exploded while carrying ammunition, Hu Sishun's supervision team killed all the remaining sappers, and I took advantage of the chaos to kill the commander of the guard company who supervised me, and broke his neck while he fell, this is the first time I have killed someone, I am not afraid at all, but very excited. This was seen by Lao Song, who sneaked back, and then the battle became more and more intense, and Lao Song asked me to help drive into the enemy formation to cause confusion among the enemy, otherwise the Whampoa army suffered heavy casualties, and I thought that so many of my brothers on the other side were killed by bullets at some point, so I agreed. ”

Everyone nodded frequently, Hu Zongnan, Jiang Xianyun and others were extremely moved, everyone looked at An Yi differently, and no one blamed him for answering the question.

Who knew that An Yi had already let go at this time, and without waiting for Shao Lizi and Fang Dingying to ask again, he blurted out a series of shocking words:

"Seniors, generals, I just suddenly remembered these things that are still vivid in my mind, because I know what a warlord is, especially after seeing the British kill our countrymen and sail their warships into Baietan, I finally know the meaning of Mr. Sun's nation, civil rights, and people's livelihood. Recently, some people in the newspapers have divided nationalism into two kinds, one is broad and the other is narrow-minded, advocating self-examination rather than retribution for wrongs, and vigorously criticizing the so-called narrow nationalism, to be honest, I am very disgusted, if I were really given a choice, I would rather be a narrow-minded nationalist with my head held high and face the guns, and I would never be a broad-minded person who retracts his head into his crotch and endures humiliation and steals his life. As for civil rights and people's livelihood, I think it is very understandable that defeating the warlords and unifying the whole of China is the best way to achieve it, otherwise, the warlords in various places will divide their territories and expropriate themselves violently, and from time to time they will fight to the death for their own interests, and it is the people who will suffer in the end, and only by eliminating the warlords and realizing the reunification of the country can we sit down and talk about people's rights to survival, labor, development and other rights, and can we build our own country with one heart and resist all external humiliations. ”

Everyone looked at the excited young man in front of them in amazement, and was deeply shocked by the understanding of the Sanming Cooking Righteousness in his own heart, and it was hard to imagine that such a unique view and such a firm belief could come from the mouth of a young man who had not grown a stiff beard, and that he could utter such esoteric words as narrow nationalism, the right to subsistence, the right to labor, and the right to development, and that the sentences were smooth and real, and that he had such an unforgettable hatred for the warlords, and that he had such a stubborn and direct understanding of the path to the realization of the Sanming Cooking. It was incredible for all.

"Good! We are not mistaken, you are an excellent young man, a progressive young man with thoughts and insights! Comrade Xiao An, I now ask you a question, are you willing to study in our Huangpu, cultivate firm beliefs with solid and systematic knowledge, and realize the meaning of Sanming in your mind? ”

Chiang Kai-shek stood up, his eyes shining and looking at An Yi.
