Since the military reform of the Youth Army in August, the establishment of the army at this level has been abolished, and the first to bear the brunt are the army commanders like Li Zongren and Tao Zhiyue, who have been directly laid off. Li Zongren was transferred to the General Staff as deputy chief of the General Staff, while Tao Zhiyue was transferred to the Military Police Headquarters to serve as Yang Wangui's deputy because of his hesitation at the critical moment in the Battle of the Southeast.

According to the treatment of lieutenant generals, Li Zongren was assigned to Villa No. 107 in Donghu Xinyuan Community, which is a three-story German-style villa; At the same time, Li Zongren was also assigned a Ford car, with five guards, one driver, one cook, and one health doctor. The total monthly salary is 2,500 Chinese yuan, so Li Zongren also specially brought out his father Li Peiying, mother Liu Suduan, eldest brother Zong Tang, third brother Zong Yi, fourth brother Zong Yao, and fifth brother Zong Fan from his hometown in Guangxi. Anyway, his salary is enough to buy 2,000 catties of rice every month, how can he support more than a dozen people. However, it is obvious that there are nine kinds of dragons, all kinds of differences, and Li Zongren's other four brothers obviously do not have Li Zongren's talent in military affairs, so naturally no one is willing to join the army. The eldest brother and the third brother both entered the military industrial complex, while the fourth and fifth brothers were sent to study by Li Zongren.

In the original history, Li Zongren should have returned to Guangxi after the Xinhai Revolution to marry a woman named Li Xiuwen in his village. But history has shifted here, although he was still called Huazi in Nanjing as in history, but Li Zongren did not return to Guangxi in the end, but was inexplicably sold to Wang Zhenyu by Zhao Hengti, and Zuihou became one of the five gold medal fighters under Wang Zhenyu (Xu Yuanquan, Wan Yaohuang, Liu Xing, Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi). Naturally, Li Zongren has become a bachelor now, and his marriage has also attracted Wang Zhenyu's attention.

Wang Zhenyu originally didn't pay much attention to the marriage of his subordinates, because there are not many such opportunities, you must know that men in this era are called early to get married. Like Huang Xing, he gave birth to Huang Yiou at the age of 16. If the age of this father is placed in the next generation, it will definitely make news headlines, and then he will be scolded by netizens, and it is estimated that he will start with the analysis of Huang Xing's parents, and Zuihou has come to the conclusion that the family is unfortunate and sex education should be grasped from an early age.

But when Wang Zhenyu learned that Li Zongren, who was one year younger than him, was still a happy bachelor because he was busy with military affairs, his mind came alive.

For a long time, Wang Zhenyu has had an indescribable feeling about the great god-level generals in history like Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, and he must be both reused and guarded against.

The reuse is because Wang Zhenyu has not many talents available, and if he catches one, he will naturally count as one. Beware of the fact that Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi are not related to themselves, and ambition will inevitably breed after holding military power. You must know that in history, these two joined forces to bring out the tears of Lao Jiang, and even controlled the Nationalist Government from 1927 to 1928, annihilating Sun Chuanfang's thirteen reorganized divisions to the north, defeating Tang Shengzhi to the west, and beating Zhang Fakui to the south. Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi's Xingui faction once controlled the Jiangnan, Lianghu and Liangguang regions. If it weren't for the fact that there were foreign powers outside and Jiangsu and Zhejiang chaebols inside, and Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi didn't have an incomparably powerful chaebol like Miss Song's family as wives, they would not have been driven out of Nanjing by Lao Jiang. It is true that military affairs are only a continuation of politics, and military alone cannot determine politics.

Sometimes the inertia of thinking still has an impact, perhaps because of textbooks, Li Zongren and Wang Zhenyu have the impression that they are very kind and reliable, while Bai Chongxi is an ambitious existence. But now Wang Zhenyu is no longer a bystander but a leader, so he doesn't dare to believe this textbook at all, he only believes one thing, when a person does not have the conditions to make trouble, he will definitely not make trouble. Therefore, he basically adopted a policy of suppression of the Gui faction represented by Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi in the youth army, although it is reused, it will be idle when it is used up, and it will not give you the opportunity to grow stronger anyway. Whether it is the joint logistics of the three services, the troika, or the withdrawal of troops to build brigades, its essence is still aimed at Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi, who have made great achievements in war, and newly risen upstarts.

But Wang Zhenyu knows that this kind of practice can only be prevented for a while, not a fundamental method, after all, no one is a fool, and the more times you do, you will know what kind of calculation you are playing. Now it's okay, the news that Li Zongren is still single, Wang Zhenyu took a look at his sisters, well, his own sister Wang Ziqi is not married yet, she is already an eighteen-year-old girl, but there is a reason why this Wang Ziqi is not married. Due to Wang Zhenyu's victory, the door of his house became higher all of a sudden, and more importantly, because Wang Zhenyu's son was too strong, the patriarchal power of the Wang family was weakened, and the children all escaped from this feudal family one by one with the third shili. Wang Ziqi originally had no chance to study, but at the age of thirteen he entered the literacy class and then entered Anjiang No. 1 Middle School to study, after Wang Zhenyu entered Wuhan, Wang Ziqi followed the third brother's family to Wuhan, and then cried and entered the National Wuhan University, studying a normal major, according to her, after graduation, she plans to become a Chinese teacher. Speaking of which, although her sister is not tall, she looks like a standard Hunan girl, beautiful. And it seems that Li Zongren's height is not high, if Li Zongren becomes his brother-in-law, then it will be a family in the future, with this fierce brother as a relative, he will basically get the support of the entire Gui family, and he has no intention of letting his son take over, not afraid that they don't want an uncle. Thinking of this, Wang Zhenyu really admired himself, and immediately decided to summon Li Zongren.

Don't look at Li Zongren as one of the members of the Standing Committee of the Ninth National Congress of the Central Military Commission, in fact, he knows that it is false, and the army is not a place to talk about the best at all. Up to today, the Standing Committee of the Central Military Commission has not held a single meeting, and the chairman of the Central Military Commission has made an arbitrary decision on everything. Among the nine members of the Standing Committee, only Wan Yaohuang, chief of the General Staff, and Ma Xicheng, minister of armaments, can see Wang Zhenyu at any time. For example, as a member of the Standing Committee, I haven't seen the chairman of the committee for four months since I was awarded the title.

Speaking of which, this chairman is one year older than himself, but he is indeed young and promising, counting from the Xinhai Revolution, from the small battalion management of the Hunan army to the current commander of the nine provincial armies, from ancient times to the present, it is estimated that Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, can achieve this great cause at this age.

Just as I was thinking about it, the car suddenly stopped. Li Zongren came back to his senses and asked, "Ah Huang, why did you stop?" ”

The driver hurriedly turned around and said, "General, check the post." ”

Li Zongren squinted his eyes and looked at it, it was almost more than a hundred meters away from Wenlu, and seven or eight heavily armed guards in blue military uniforms set up cards here to check the vehicles that had passed. Although the officer in charge of the inspection was very polite and polite, Li Zongren also had to sigh that the chairman of the committee was no longer what it used to be, and this pomp and circumstance was not fake. After carefully checking and checking the pass, the officer checked Li Zongren's military ID card, and then gave a military salute very respectfully: "Comrade Lieutenant General, we have received an order, please enter." ”

There are two similar sentry posts, and Li Zongren is a little dissatisfied, is it necessary to be so nervous? However, all the dissatisfaction disappeared after seeing Wang Zhenyu, and Li Zongren was directly introduced into the study by Wang Zhenyu's secretary Chen Bui.

"Brother Delin, why don't you usually walk around with me, are you now a lieutenant general, and you don't take me as the chairman of the committee in your eyes?"

Wang Zhenyu said half-jokingly, but Li Zongren jumped up from the sofa in fright, and saluted: "I will never forget the grace of the marshal for the rest of my life (the generals of the descendant family generally call Wang Zhenyu the marshal in private), and I definitely don't dare to have any disrespect, please be aware of the marshal." ”

Wang Zhenyu hahadaxiao said: "Just kidding, don't be nervous, others don't know, don't I know you Li Delin?" Sit down, sit down. ”

Wang Zhenyu's secretary Chen Bui personally brought the tea in, and outside the study, Wang Chenhao was personally in charge of guarding, and no one was allowed to disturb him, including the ladies, this is the old rule for Wang Zhenyu to talk to someone alone.

"Delin, how do you feel about your recent work in the General Staff?" Wang Zhenyu did not say anything directly, but cared about Li Zongren's work.

Li Zongren is now sticking to the sofa with half of his buttocks, but the sofa is too soft, so it is not comfortable to sit on. Hearing Wang Zhenyu's question, he hurriedly got up and said: "Back to the commander, I am currently in charge of the daily work of the three departments of communications, surveying and mapping, and training in the General Staff. Thank you for your concern. ”

Wang Zhenyu was happy when he heard it, Wan Yaohuang, this kid, how could he send Li Zongren to meddle with errands, in addition to training, these departments are all jishu departments, Li Zongren doesn't understand, and training is also an inspector department, which can only be inspected but not checked, and it is very false. It is estimated that Li Zongren has also been suffocated in the past few months: "Feel free to follow my old brother from the beginning, sit down and say, sit down and say." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Zhenyu still decided to get straight to the point: "Delin, I came to you today, mainly because I have been thinking about the assessment of the southwest recently, and now the ministries are almost ready, but I haven't ......decided on the candidate for this coach yet."

didn't wait for Wang Zhenyu to finish speaking, Li Zongren, who had just sat down, jumped up like a spring: "I am willing to go to my humble duty, sweep the southwest for the handsome, and I will not give up." ”

"Okay, what I want is this enthusiasm" Wang Zhenyu knew that Li Zongren must have been annoyed by sitting on a cold bench in the General Staff.

"Hehe, brother Delin, I heard that you are not married yet? But what about the object? Wang Zhenyu asked suddenly.

Li Zongren's head was still excited that he could lead the troops to the battle again, and replied without thinking that no, but when it was over, he remembered that the marshal asked why was this? Li Zongren has been proud of his career in the past few years, and he has been promoted from a squad leader all the way to a military commander and then to a military commission boss. As soon as this person is busy with promotion, he can't take care of other things, and after all these years, he has returned to his hometown once. And Li Zongren has a high status now, and there is no shortage of matchmakers, but Bai Chongxi has been sent to Europe these days, and he himself has been hung up, and he is bored in his heart, and he is not sensitive to this blind date.

Then Wang Zhenyu's words made Li Zongren dizzy: "It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it, I have a little sister in my family, she is eighteen this year, she is very naughty and mischievous, and she is about to find a mother-in-law, I think your kid is quite suitable......"
