Zhang Qun's words seemed unintentional, but Zheng Weiguo was a little suspicious. Good end, why did he mention the Northern Expedition, was he hinting at something?

Chief of Staff Zhou hurriedly came over to play a round and said, "What Mr. Yue Jun said is extremely true. I think that we made China unified through the Northern Expedition back then, and now as long as we persist in the War of Resistance, we will definitely be able to rebuild China! ”

Zhang Qun glanced at Chief of Staff Zhou in surprise and said, "Chief of Staff Zhou said it well, it is exactly what I want!" Before leaving, the chairman of the committee asked me to convey to you that as long as you are determined to sacrifice to the end, the war of resistance will be won, and I hope you will work hard! ”

Zheng Weiguo quickly realized that this person was extremely deep in the city, and he was by no means as bold as he seemed on the surface. Most of his surprised expression was also pretended, so that everyone could see his demeanor as a corporal and get closer to Chief of Staff Zhou.

Also, Did Captain Chang say that? Did you really say it? Uh, to be honest, Zheng Weiguo didn't believe it at all. However, whether you believe it or not, at this time, you can only follow Chief of Staff Guo and shout together: "Abide by the teachings of the commission, the Japanese will not be destroyed, and they will not quit!" ”

Zhang Qun nodded with satisfaction, and said kindly: "Weiguo, do you know what I have another mission this time?" ”

Zheng Weiguo pretended to be at a loss, saying that he didn't know anything, and he thought to himself, wouldn't he just act? I can too! Let's see who shows the horse's feet first!

Zhang Qun sighed and said, "I really don't spare my life for the country!" I was very moved to hear that you fought bloody battles in North China and turned the tide many times. It is specially proposed to award you the Order of the Blue Sky and the White Sun, and give you the Zhongzheng Sword! ”

Zheng Weiguo hurriedly made a grateful look. He said, "Thank you for your appreciation!" ”

Zhang Qun waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is the honor you deserve." Interestingly, when I arrived in the World War II Zone, I learned that you still had two Blue Sky and White Sun medals unreceived. Thinking that most of the hundreds of division commanders of our army have never even received a Yunlu Medal, the elder brother of the Patriotic Nation has won three Blue Sky and White Sun Medals in a row, it is really a good story for the ages! ”

Everyone was busy following his meaning to really praise Zheng Weiguo, and Rao is Zheng beard was thick and almost didn't survive.

Zhang Qun stood on the rostrum, looked around, and said with a smile: "Ji Qiao (Chief of Staff Guo's character), it just so happens that the soldiers are here." It's better to choose a day than to hit the day. How about you give the medal right here? ”

Chief of Staff Guo was the "standard chief of staff" appointed by Captain Chang, and he was known as the first chief of staff at that time, and he had a high reputation in the army, so he was respected as the deputy of Zhang Yuan. He spoke very politely. Chief of Staff Guo is also a person with a seven-trick heart. Busy said: "Mr. Yue Jun's words are very good. That's exactly how it should be! ”

Director Xiong, who presided over the welcome ceremony, hurriedly said: "Everyone stands up, and I would like to ask Vice President Zhang, the special envoy of the chairman, to award the honor to the division!" As soon as the words fell, thunderous applause immediately rang out on and off the stage.

Zhang Qun got up and gestured to everyone. Please sit down first, and then conveyed the greetings of the chairman, and finally said: "Entrusted by the Military Commission, I have come to award the honor to Division Commander Zheng for defending the country, and I wish the 33rd Division another new meritorious service, and Division Commander Zheng will be honored again!" ”

The soldiers shouted in unison from the audience: "Make new contributions, win more awards!" After shouting twice, everyone was enthusiastic, and they couldn't wait to go out and fight with the devil immediately.

Seeing that everyone's emotions were mobilized, Zhang Qun took out three small boxes from his body and put them on the table, then solemnly opened the box and took out the medals, and put them on for Zheng Weiguo one by one. Three blue blue blue sky and white sun medals were hung on Zheng Weiguo's chest in turn, shining together with the previous Baoding Medal and Yunlu Medal.

Although it was given to Zheng Weiguo alone, the soldiers all felt honored and couldn't stop applauding in the audience.

In addition to medals, there is also a Zhongzheng sword. The lieutenant of the retinue placed the sword on a large plate and brought it up respectfully. This sword is half a meter long, and the front is engraved with the words "Success becomes benevolence, Jiang Zhongzheng gifts".

Zhang Qun took out the sword from the plate and showed it to everyone, and put it on Zheng Weiguo with his own hands. Zheng Weiguo felt a little uncomfortable, because this sword was quite weighty, and it had deflected the cross belt. The five large medals on his chest are also very heavy, no wonder Tomami said that his left shoulder was raised.

But the ceremony isn't over yet! Zhang Qun asked his entourage to bring a plate with two flags, one large and one small. As soon as the small flag was unfurled, I saw a small flying tiger on it, uh, this is probably the highest honor of the army, the flying tiger flag.

Zhang Qun held this flag high and said loudly: "In order to commend the 33rd Division's combat exploits in the southeast of Shanxi, the Military Commission hereby awards this flag as a reward!" ”

When it comes to the honor of soldiers, Zheng Weiguo did not dare to slack off, he hurriedly stood up and saluted, respectfully accepted the flag, and then handed it over to the flag officer.

There was also a big flag on the plate, and Zheng Weiguo said curiously: "Brother Yue Jun, what is this?" ”

Zhang Qun said with a smile: "This is kept secret for the time being, and I have to bother Weiguo to find a long bamboo pole!" ”

Zheng Weiguo vaguely guessed what was inside, and hurriedly asked the pillar to find a bamboo pole to carry the military flag. As he expected, Zhang Qun asked several adjutants to work together and planted the big flag on the flagpole.

Just as a gust of wind blew, the flag fluttered in the wind, and a fierce tiger with teeth and claws was suddenly revealed, and even better, there was a goat under the tiger's paws. The goat seemed to be struggling as hard as it could, but it was about to die in the tiger's mouth. The whole picture is very real and bloody, but it is very appetizing to the fighters. In their opinion, dealing with Japanese devils is like a tiger pounceing on a sheep, a fatal blow!

Zhang Qun explained: "This flag is my personal gift to General Zheng and the 33rd Division. When a Suzhou embroidery craftsman wandered to Wuhan, I asked him to work overnight to make such a totem of a tiger pounceing on a sheep, which is a gesture of heart! ”

Zheng Weiguo knew that there was moisture in his words, but he was also moved, and hurriedly said: "Brother Yue Jun really has a heart!" ”

Zhang Qun smiled: "As long as Wei Guo likes it!" ”

After the ceremony of awarding the medal and flag, Zheng Weiguo invited Zhang Qun to come to the stage to speak to the soldiers. Zhang Qun is also eloquent, of course he will not let go of such a good opportunity. So he talked endlessly on the stage. The content of the speech is very long, and only excerpts are made here.

In particular, he highlighted three points. First, the Chinese nation loves peace, and the Nationalist Government opposes war and has always advocated seeking self-existence at home and coexistence abroad. Diplomacy with Japan has been maintained with all its might, but because Japan has been gaining an inch and intensifying its aggression, this peaceful situation can no longer be maintained, and there is only one way to go by fighting to the end.

Second. The full-scale outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War seemed to be accidental. In fact, Japan has painstakingly planned to destroy China, and it has been prepared step by step.

Third, a weak country should not seek war, but it must dare to fight. Because we have no chance of compromise. If you give up the size of the land with sovereignty. He is the sinner of the Chinese nation through the ages.

After that, he specifically mentioned the chairman's speech in Lushan. It is said that as soon as the war starts, there is no distinction between north and south, and there is no distinction between old and young. No matter who you are, you have the responsibility to defend your territory and resist the war, and you should be determined to sacrifice everything.

Wang Da whispered to Professor Yang in the audience: "This guy deserves to be Jiang Guangtou's henchman, he is really powerful!" ”

Professor Yang smiled slightly and said, "It's similar to Jiang speaking in Lushan, but there is one thing he didn't say, or he didn't dare to say it in front of the soldiers!" ”

Wang Daqi said: "There is a fourth point? ”

Professor Yang said in a low voice: "Well, Jiang said that if the other party (referring to Japan) can still put himself in the shoes of the Oriental nation and make a lofty plan, and does not want to promote the relations between the two countries to reach the most difficult moment, and does not want to cause eternal hatred between China and Japan for generations, we should not ignore our minimum position. ”

Wang Da thought for a moment and said, "The chairman still hopes to negotiate peace with Japan?" What a pipe dream! ”

Professor Yang scoffed: "The bourgeoisie always has the illusion that imperialism will suddenly be benevolent. ”

Wang Da said: "What is the purpose of Zhang Qun here? ”

Professor Yang shook his head with a wry smile and said, "This person is very ghostly, I can't guess it." I don't know if they really want to strengthen the forces on the south bank of the Yellow River, or if they want to take the opportunity to take the 33rd Division. If it's the latter, the 33rd Division is in danger! ”

Wang Daqi said: "Can't the central government mediate? ”

Professor Yang said: "You don't understand, it's not easy for the central government to meddle in this kind of thing. At present, the nation is in peril, and the overall situation of cooperation between the KMT and the CPC cannot be shaken. ”

Wang Da nodded and said, "Well, then it depends on how this kid Zheng Weiguo chooses." ”

After the meeting, Zheng Weiguo specially hosted a banquet to entertain Zhang Qun and Chief of Staff Guo. The 33rd Division and the high-level officials of Ping'an County are all accompanying guests, and it is rare to gather together. This Zhang Qun is indeed very skillful, he talks and laughs freely at the banquet, and he sways freely, which makes people feel good, even Wang Da, who looks at him very indiscriminately, is speechless.

After the banquet, Zheng Weiguo invited Zhang Qun to the study for a detailed discussion. Zhilan poured them tea, closed the door lightly and went out, leaving the room with only the two of them. There are internal guards standing guard inside and outside the courtyard, and no one wants to come in.

The reason why Zheng Weiguo put on such a posture is to tell Zhang Qun, if you have anything to say, you don't have to go around in circles. He has patience, but he doesn't have time, it is difficult to support Feng Kun alone in Tianjin, and if he doesn't go over, something big may happen.

Zhang Qun took a sip and said, "Good tea, this is Fujian's big red robe!" ”

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Brother Yue Jun likes it, I'll give you a bag later." This tea was given to me by a squire, and I don't have time to drink it on weekdays, so I'm blind to this good thing! ”

Zhang Qun smiled: "Then I will be disrespectful!" Don't hide it from the virtuous brother, the foolish brother loves this mouthful! ”

On this kind of occasion, whoever speaks first will be disadvantaged, so they just don't talk about business. Zheng Weiguo felt that he couldn't go on like this, he was fighting and playing tricks, how could he play with an old fox like Zhang Qun? It is still necessary to switch to the most advantageous battlefield.

He thought for a moment and said, "Brother Yue Jun, it's too stuffy in this study, and there are no secrets between you and me anyway, why don't you go outside?" ”

Zhang Qun was thinking about how to induce Zheng Weiguo to speak, but he didn't expect him to suddenly change his position, and he was stunned for a while. However, he is also an old loach who has been weathered for a long time, and he immediately thought of a countermeasure and hurriedly agreed.

The two walked out of the small courtyard and chatted along the mountain road. Zheng Weiguo finally found a topic that suits him, that is, the construction of base areas. He started with the establishment of village-level political power and continued to talk about the agricultural infrastructure construction that began recently.

Zhang Qun was immediately dumbfounded when he heard this, dare you don't want to go south, you plan to live here for a long time! (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
