Chapter 216: Parting Words
When the three commanders of the revolutionary army, followed the commander of the guard division who was like a close guard with Tian You, Guo Shiqing, came to a small reception room in the inner courtyard of the governor's palace and sat down. Several maids from the Governor's Mansion politely brought the three of them haode tea and snacks, which was undoubtedly a treatment that the other main division commanders could not enjoy.
As Guo Shiqing went in and invited Guo Tianyou out, the other three military commanders sat in this small reception room and did not speak to each other. Although they are all one of the giants of the three armed forces of the revolutionary army, they are stationed in different defense areas, and they have a sense of strangeness after not being in contact for a long time. In addition, in this case, any unintentional words will attract other cranky thoughts. Therefore, it is far better not to speak than to speak!
The three of them drank tea quietly, except for Chen Mingyang, who already knew everything and seemed to be sitting here calmly, the other two summoned military commanders were undoubtedly speculating. What exactly are you going to talk about when you call them here before the generals' meeting? Was the succession announced to them in advance, or was there something else?
With this speculation and confusion, the three of them soon heard the sound of footsteps and wheelchairs coming from the backyard, and immediately got up from their chairs and sorted out their military uniforms. Looking at the once high-spirited Guo Tianyou, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was now pale and smiling, and when he nodded to them, the three iron-clad men who asked themselves also felt a little sour.
Maybe it was because he saw the eyes of these generals, Guo Tianyou said very calmly: "Everyone is a military commander, and people with children and daughters, why do they still make such a posture of a little woman?" Sitting, I think you are also wondering at this moment, who I have chosen to be the leader of the future revolutionary army, right? Then you can sit down and listen to my opinion first, okay? ”
Du Wenlong, the eldest of the three, got up directly and said, "Handsome." No matter what you decide, Wenlong will stand by your decision. There will be no civil strife in the revolutionary army, and whoever dares to shoot the first shot will be killed by Lao Tzu. ”
Facing the commander of the First Army, who had the most fiery personality, Guo Tianyou coughed twice, and let Guo Shiqing, who also had red eyes, push him in front of the old brother and said: "Wenlong, I remember that when we met back then, you were a company commander of the Nanbin New Army, right?" In the blink of an eye, both of us brothers were of this age.
I really want God to give me a little more time, so that I can have the opportunity to see the unification of Longhua. See the opportunity for Longhua to rise! But God tricked people and made me lose this luxury. However, Brother Wenlong, I hope you can wait for that day in the future. Remember to come to my grave and tell me the news. ”
Hearing Guo Tianyou smile and hold his hand and say these words. Du Wenlong, who was over fifty years old, couldn't control his tears and said, "No, handsome." You're going to get better. It is not good to govern at home. We'll go abroad for treatment, and you'll be fine. We must have a chance to see that day come. I don't want you to leave me!
You promised me to stand together at the ceremony of establishing a democratic republic and to review our strong army. How can you talk now and not count? I let me see those old brothers in the future, how can I explain to them? Handsome. You listened to Wenlong's advice, let's go abroad for treatment? ”
Looking at the old brother kneeling in front of him, Guo Tianyou couldn't help but reddened his eyes and said, "Yes!" When we raised an army to rebel, decades have passed in a blink of an eye. The old brothers who left before us. I'm afraid we are still waiting for the day when we will implement a democratic republic! It's a pity that I, the handsome, want to lose my words and go to accompany those old brothers.
Wenlong, I know that you are warlike and not afraid of death, but your temper is a little rushed. This kind of character is in the army, and it looks good with me, and if I am not there in the future. I'm so worried that someone can take care of you! Can you promise me one thing? ”
Du Wenlong, who was crying like a child, also knew that if Guo Tianyou's condition could really be saved, it would not have been delayed until now. He just said that he would go abroad to govern, but he was reluctant to let this old chief, who was also a teacher and friend, leave. You know, watching the brothers who made a revolution together leave one after another, he really didn't feel good about it.
I used to hear people say that it is easy to die, but it is very painful to live. He thinks it's pure nonsense, can haode live, weishenme wants to die? But now he understands that watching these brothers who were born and died leave one by one and go down to reunite below, he is still alive.
Now that even this spiritual pillar is leaving him, how can he not be sad? Losing his faith and pillars, for Du Wenlong, who has always believed that he can see the democratic republic, it is indeed a thing that is worse than death!
It's a shame to shed tears for all soldiers! In the past, Du Wenlong also despised this kind of officers and soldiers, but it was really sad. Even heroes can cry, let alone an ordinary person? He has feelings, dependence, and concern!
Du Wenlong, who was choked, said: "Dashuai, you said that as long as Wenlong can do it, he will definitely promise you." ”
Hearing Du Wenlong's answer, Guo Tianyou said very calmly: "I won't embarrass you too much, as long as you promise me, you have to think more about everything you do in the future, and don't be so impulsive in your brain." Do you remember the letter I gave you? Three provinces a day, that's what I want you to promise to do.
Only by constantly reflecting can you truly understand what shortcomings you still have, and your future may be bright. Honestly, if I lived, why would I want to leave? You are reluctant to be my eldest brother, how can I be willing to be your brother? So, remember what I told you, and it's not a bad thing to think more about things in the future. ”
comforted Du Wenlong, who seemed to be a little emotional, and Tianyou came to Wang Zhongzheng again and said with a smile: "Zhong Zheng, I remember that you are the first batch of recruits to join the army after I overthrew the Nanbin government. Now in a blink of an eye, you have become a member of my revolutionary army, you really did not disappoint me, I am very happy to see that you have today's achievements! ”
Wang Zhongzheng, who has an indifferent personality, is not good at expressing his feelings, so he can only say stiffly: "Thank you for the grace of the handsome promotion!" Zhong Zhengwan's death is hard to report! ”
For this general, who always spoke so briefly, Guo Tianyou knew that he was a cold-faced and hot-hearted general, and joked with a smile: "You! is still like what Xiaofeng said back then, a stuffy gourd. In fact, if you have time in the future, talk to others more, smile more, maybe you will feel a new life. I've heard people say that you kid is like this at home.
With a straight face all day long, even a few boys in your family will hide in fear when they see you coming back, and they don't dare to call you a father. Don't you feel uncomfortable? Remember, self-cultivation and Qi family rule the country and level the world, is a gift I give you. When you learn to get in touch with your own children, you will also understand that sometimes, if you let go of your heart, you will get more smiles from others. Remember? ”
When Wang Zhongzheng heard this, he said very seriously: "Xie Dashuai, Zhong Zheng remembers, and he will definitely learn to smile more and communicate more with the children in the future." Please rest assured! ”
Knowing that a person's personality cannot be changed in a short period of time, Tianyou didn't say anything, came to Chen Mingyang and said: "Mingyang, remember that you followed me back then, starting from a small staff officer. These glasses are still like that. Let's take the time to change your glasses in the future! Maybe you also feel that the shijie in front of you is very different.
I know that you are more calm than Wenlong, and you know how to communicate sincerely better than Zhong Zheng, but you have one thing that needs to be improved. Throw a little more bookishness on this body, if you're a staff officer, it's okay to be a little more bookish. But as the commander of an army, you have less masculinity, and you have less ability to make decisions when fighting.
I hope you can improve this in the future, maybe in the near future, you will be the second Confucian general Situ Baili in Longhua Kingdom. Don't be unconvinced, compared to Dean Situ, you are still far from being able to do so. Do you understand? ”
Chen Mingyang was not unconvinced by this, on the contrary, he said very sincerely: "Follow the teachings of the marshal, and Mingyang will pay attention to it in the future." ”
After the three generals finished explaining, they returned to the main seat and let the three standing generals sit down. His face became very serious and said: "As the main commanders of the revolutionary army, the three of you are undoubtedly the best candidates for all the soldiers and civilians outside to speculate that they will take over my position." But I want to ask you, do the three of you have the ability to do this?
You are all the closest people to me, and you know the truth that the so-called high places are unbearable, and the throne of a governor seems to be beautiful. In fact, every step of the way is frightening, and an order or a word may lead to the death of thousands of soldiers and the suffering of millions of people. Even I have been in charge of the big handsome seal for many years, but I feel powerless, do you think I can do better than me? ”
As soon as these words came out, in addition to Chen Mingyang's lack of surprise, Du Wenlong and Wang Zhongzheng undoubtedly looked very surprised. Because in their opinion, if they do not choose an heir from among their three army commanders, then who is more suitable than them?
Only Du Wenlong said most directly: "Dashuai, I know that I am not capable enough, and I have never thought of asking for the position of governor." I prefer the thing of living in the barracks now, training those fur cubs.
But I want to know who you chose to take over the revolutionary army. As long as you choose, and I, Du Wenlong, support it unconditionally, who dares to oppose your appointment, then ask the guns of the 100,000 soldiers of the first army if they agree. ”
Just when Du Wenlong and Wang Zhongzheng doubted whether this marshal would give up the position of governor to his son, Guo Tianyou changed the topic and said: "You are willing to unconditionally support my order, to be honest, I am very happy, I am most worried that my brother will kill each other if I leave, it is not difficult for me to die and I will not be at ease."
It's just that before I say the heir, you can say your judgment on the current situation of Longhua with your own opinion. And do you think that in the future, there will really be a chance to complete the reunification of Longhua and establish a democratic republic? ”
These seemingly unrelated words shocked Du Wenlong and Wang Zhongzheng. Could it be that this marshal still wants to hand over the revolutionary army to outsiders? Isn't he worried that his soldiers will be dissatisfied? But if it's not what they think, then what's the point? (To be continued......)
