Although Tang Qiuli knew that his father-in-law did not object to his approach, he couldn't guess that he pulled himself to the study and made him look very mysterious, what was the reason for it, and he said it calmly because he didn't want to hide it from the old man, perhaps, in his heart, he was looking forward to getting the old man's guidance.

Old Man Mei slapped the armrest of the chair and shouted, "Okay! Men should have this ambition, but Qiu Li, for the father does not understand a little, your power has spread all over Chinese mainland, why expand your influence overseas, you must know that today's China, is still a situation of warlord separation, even you, not fully controlled, just by virtue of the general hiding in Chongqing, it is impossible to clean up this mess, not to mention that the future CCP will be a strong enemy of the national government. ”

"Only you have the strength to unite a scattered China by force, I don't want to see that the day of the defeat of the Japanese is the time when the smoke of the civil war suddenly rises, and at that time, it is the people of Li who will suffer from the flames of war, is it that your future is not in the country?"

Tang Qiuli was silent, he understood his father-in-law's thoughts, and was also shocked by his father-in-law's insight, the smoke of war around the world was thick, the Japanese army in the Pacific theater, defeated Britain and the United States in a row, and was in full swing, but his father-in-law saw the defeat of the Japanese, and also saw the future war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.

And this is precisely the question that Tang Qiuli is difficult to answer, he is familiar with history, and he can also change the trend of local history, but the history under the general pattern stubbornly follows the existing line. For example, the future relationship between the KMT and the CCP.

Because of their own appearance, history has changed a lot, and some of the history cannot and cannot be changed by itself, the independent division undertook all the battles against Japan, and both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party took advantage of this rare opportunity to develop their respective strengths, and it was only a matter of time before they met each other.

I don't want to be a part of it. is committed to expanding overseas influence, but these words cannot be said to his father-in-law, nor can he say it clearly. It doesn't matter if it's to shirk responsibility, or it's another form of being out of sight and out of mind. None of them were accepted by the father-in-law.

Domestic. Fighting with the Chongqing government and the CCP, Tang Qiuli didn't want to do it, seeing that he was silent, Old Man Mei showed a thoughtful look.

In the study, it was quiet and a little dreary. After a long time, Old Man Mei sighed faintly, and he had roughly guessed his uncle's thoughts, although he had some regrets. But he will not be reluctant, big deal, and he will follow in the footsteps of his children and go overseas.

The old man laughed a few times and said heartily: "Qiu Li, don't be embarrassed, for the father to understand you, and don't want to interfere with your practice, it is also a happy thing to let us Chinese go further, born in troubled times, to fight out of their own world, isn't it happy!" Let's go, talk to your mother, and I'll talk to Xue'er too, otherwise, my daughter won't blame me! ”

Tang Qiuli is very grateful for his father-in-law's understanding, and he also believes that his father-in-law has gained insight into his own thoughts, but he has not embarrassed himself, let alone forced him, this is an old man who has been respected all his life, hearty, open-minded, and insightful of the world.

Sure enough, when I arrived at the living room, first my mother-in-law's nagging, and then Mei Xue's puffing appearance, but the two parties, exchanged glances, and sat down calmly, the next topic was naturally inseparable from the Indochina Peninsula, the Indian continent and the battle in the Southwest Pacific.

From Mei Ting's mouth, Tang Qiuli learned that Meiling is now in Liu Tiehan's Dongzhi Army, and has served as the chief of staff of the brigade, because there is no major war in the Northeast, Meiling can go home once or twice a year.

Originally, according to the old man's wishes, dinner was also eaten in Meifu, and Tang Qiuli's parents were to be brought over, and the two families got together together, but Tang Qiuli did not have this blessing, and Liu Hanzhang, vice chairman of the Military and Political Committee of the Dingbian Special Economic Zone and mayor of Dingbian Special City, had already called Meifu.

Listening to Liu Hanzhang's meaning on the phone, if Tang Qiuli doesn't go to the city government again, Liu Hanzhang will take a large number of officials to Meifu and use this place as a conference room, Tang Qiuli was taken aback, he knows too well Liu Hanzhang's stubbornness, he can really do it, this old man's persistence is sometimes intimidating.

hurriedly said goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and ordered Mei Ting, Mei Xue and Jia Lin to stay here tonight, and then, under the gaze of his wife and daughter, he was protected by the secret service and special guards, and drove to Dingbian City Hall.

As soon as he entered Liu Hanzhang's office, Tang Qiuli couldn't help but complain half-jokingly: "Chairman Liu, I finally came back, and the time I spent with my family was less than ten hours, and you came to the door in a hurry, what is the big thing that stumps you?" ”

Liu Hanzhang didn't mean to joke at all, and said: "Chairman Tang, there is no big deal, and there is no such force, dare to make up the idea of Dingbian, but, don't forget, you are the highest military and political chief here, and for two years, you have ignored Dingbian, but I have to report to you." ”

As he spoke, he took out a thick stack of texts from the drawer, Tang Qiuli was startled again when he saw the thickness of the texts, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Chairman Liu, don't you scare me, how thick is a stack of texts, shouldn't it be the content of the report?" ”

Liu Hanzhang smiled rarely, and replied: "Of course it is, when it comes to all aspects of the Dingbian Special Economic Zone, the basic situation in the past two years, you, as a family, have to master it, this is still the content that I screened and refined and refined, otherwise, even if you Chairman Tang listens to it for three days and three nights, you can't finish listening, if it is reported by the person in charge of each system, you will prepare for half a month, listen to the report!" ”

When Tang Qiuli heard this, his head was two big at that time, and he said with a bitter face: "Chairman Liu, you also know that what I am not good at is these government affairs, discuss it, I will give you an hour, just one hour, and hand it over to you, I can rest assured that I will do it myself, in fact, there is no need to report." ”

Liu Hanzhang also knew that the founder of Dingbian, the supreme commander of the army of more than one million, was able to hide and let go when he could handle government affairs.

An hour later, Tang Qiuli left the Dingbian City Government with a mixed head, his mind was full of all kinds of numbers, most of which he couldn't remember clearly, only one thing he remembered very firmly, that is, the development of the military industry in the Dingbian Special Economic Zone has reached a surprising world-leading level, although Dingbian is far away from the sea, but the group of foreigners from the Special Equipment Research Institute have begun to study the manufacture of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft.

This made Tang Qiuli very excited, one of the main battlefields of the independent division in the future is the vast Pacific Ocean, and the current strength of the independent division's fleet is far behind the Americans and the Japanese, which is also a piece of his own heart, five aircraft carriers, three are of Japanese blood, and two are of Soviet blood, compared with the scale of the US and Japanese navies, often more than a dozen aircraft carriers, it is not enough to support the pattern of the Pacific theater, and it is necessary to build aircraft carriers by itself.

As long as he has the design drawings and is fully capable of turning the drawings into reality with the resources he has at his disposal, Tang Qiuli is secretly complacent, and if he had not collected these world's top military scientific research talents from various countries and given them generous treatment, he would not have today's results.

In other aspects, Tang Qiuli did not express any opinions, but on this point, he put forward detailed opinions, which can also be regarded as instructions, in fact, Tang Qiuli's instructions, to be specific, is one point, the special equipment research institute, ask for money to give money, ask for things to give things, ask people to give people, all the way to the green light, he also particularly emphasized that all the funds can be spent from the logistics department of the independent division.

Liu Hanzhang was very unimpressed, and he solemnly told Tang Qiuli, "Chairman Tang, at present, the total industrial and commercial output value of Dingbian is enough to support three to five such large-scale projects, and in addition, in addition to the aircraft carrier project, researchers in the military industrial system have begun to work on various new weapons and equipment to replace the independent division troops, and the current equipment and all the funds are all financed by the Dingbian Special Economic Zone. ”

When he said these words, Liu Hanzhang looked proud, but, in Tang Qiuli's eyes, there was such a wealthy posture, think about it, the family background of the independent division is rich enough, but it is all scraped from the Japanese, British and Americans, and it is a business without capital, in other words, it is similar to the bandits, the only difference is that the bandits kidnap individuals, while Tang Qiuli kidnaps the country.

However, the Dingbian Special Economic Zone is different, relying entirely on its own development, not only becoming one of the most famous cities in China, but also providing a steady stream of soldiers and material supplies for the independent division, in which Liu Hanzhang has made great contributions.

After returning home, Tang Qiuli and his parents got together and talked about some common words, nothing more than the farm where his father was, how much yield per mu of crops in a season, dozens of hens raised by his mother, how many eggs can be laid in a day, and so on.

If there is another fire kang with a few prey hanging on the wall, it almost makes Tang Qiuli suspect that this is his hometown in the northeast where he lived in his childhood, which is absolutely different from the atmosphere in his father-in-law's house, but both atmospheres are what he likes.

The next day, Tang Qiuli's special plane left Dingbian, where he had only stayed for one night, and flew towards the north.
