The old man surnamed Chen saw Zhou Wen still maintaining a calm smile, as if he didn't mind the Medal of the Blue Sky and White Sun, but he secretly praised in his heart: "With such a calm and calm look, he can afford a
The title of a monster."
But Vice Chairman Sun was the first to say: "It seems that someone in the Military Commission is dissatisfied with Xiao Zhou's command! However, our Central Party Committee will definitely come forward to fight for you. We cannot let the anti-Japanese heroes of our Central Party Committee fight with the Japanese at the front."
The bandit bleeds and fights, and when he comes back, he will be ostracized and suppressed by these people who are just eating corpses."
Vice Chairman Sun always spoke of the Central Party Committee. Of course Zhou Wen understood what he meant, but since this was the first time they met, there was no need to make it so clear.
So he chuckled and said: "Thank you two presidents for your hard work for me. Going to the Songhu battlefield this time is also my duty as a soldier. Medals and other things are not very important, as long as my brothers are not wronged."
That's fine. As for whether the Military Commission is fair and whether there is any inside story, I don't care about it. I hope the two chairmen Haihan can just forget about it."
Zhou Wen said he didn't care, so the two chairmen naturally couldn't make a fuss about the medal. However, both parties knew each other tacitly, and the first trial was just a taste of it.
The two presidents began to exchange pleasantries and asked in detail about the situation of the war.
Zhou Wen didn't hide anything, so he narrated the process of several battles, and the highlights were mentioned, which made the two vice-chairmen either praise the case or drink tea instead of wine, and cheered.
It does not mean that the two vice-chairmen have not experienced or witnessed war. After all, they are both important figures who have stood out in this era of turmoil and war. But what Zhou Wen tells is the first true war against foreign enemies in this era. The first
This was a war that caused physical pain and heartache to the foreign enemy.
As long as you are a normal Chinese citizen, even a country man who cannot even write your own name, you will also feel happy for any victory your country and army achieve against foreign enemies, because from the moment we are born,
It means that we are compatriots, we are of the same race.
After telling the story, the two vice presidents felt that their relationship with Zhou Wen had become much closer. They now viewed Zhou Wen from the vortex of politics. Although their original plans would not change, their utilitarian intentions
But it has weakened a lot, because Zhou Wen and his mercenary group have won their respect as a Chinese hero who fought against the Japanese.
A pleasant meeting ended in a friendly and cordial atmosphere, and nothing substantive was involved. The two vice-chairmen only said that if Zhou Wen had any difficulties while in Nanjing, the Central Party Committee would try its best to help and told Zhou Wen never to meet him.
In addition, the Central Party Committee is Zhou Wen’s natal family in Nanjing, etc.
Under the earnest and respectful instructions of the two vice-chairmen, Zhou Wen respectfully bid farewell and left the Central Party Headquarters in a car with Liu Ruoshui.
The first meeting between the two parties was very friendly and the atmosphere was harmonious, and the basis for further negotiations was established.
In the car, Liu Ruoshui stopped talking to Zhou Wen in private. He slightly gestured to the driver sitting in the front seat with his eyes and began to introduce the street scenes and famous buildings along the way to Zhou Wen with great interest. Zhou Wen also knew that this was not the time to talk.
At that time, I put my worries aside and admired the ancient capital of Jinling.
During this period, Zhou Wen proposed to find a house as a residence near the Central Army Military Academy. Liu Ruoshui laughed and said: "Brother, don't worry, Nanjing is my second hometown. Before I leave, I will help you with everything."
It's done properly, I guarantee your satisfaction. Now let's go to dinner first. It's not convenient for the two vice-chairmen to entertain you today, so they entrusted me to my brother to do it for you. I will take you to taste our most famous salted duck in Nanjing. First
Just fill your stomach before we talk."
Zhou Wen smiled and said, yes, Nanjing is the base camp of this elder brother. Whatever worries he has, he can just leave it to him.
For Liu Ruoshui, the eldest brother, Zhou Wen is now completely at ease. It's hard to say what the future will be like, but now the two of them are indeed treating each other sincerely and sharing weal and woe.
Not long after, the car stopped at the entrance of an inconspicuous lane. Liu Ruoshui motioned for Zhou Wen to get out of the car, and said with a polite smile: "If you want to taste delicious food, you must work hard first. This alley is too narrow, and the car is too narrow."
If you don’t go in, I’ll have to trouble my brother to move your legs.”
After Zhou Wen got off the car, he saw a simple and majestic city gate in the distance, and knew that this was the famous Zhonghua Gate. Liu Ruoshui introduced beside him: "This is the Zhonghua Gate, and it is also the largest city gate in Nanjing. It was called "Jubao Gate" during the Ming Dynasty.
"Gate", the three words "Zhonghua Gate" on the plaque are written by the principal himself. Zhonghua Gate has a history of more than 600 years. When brother you settle down, I will take you to visit Haosheng."
After Liu Ruoshui finished speaking, he led Zhou Wen into a narrow alley. Liu Ruoshui introduced that there was an old salted duck shop passed down for more than ten generations. It was very famous in the late Qing Dynasty, but it was located in a remote alley.
Local people generally don't know about it. Although the store is a little simple, the taste is very authentic and delicious. Generally, only close relatives and friends will invite you to eat here. It is not suitable for social banquets. Those who don't know think that the owner is saving money and stingy when treating guests.
.
As they spoke, the two came to an old-fashioned two-story wooden building on the street. The plaque on the wooden building read the four words "Yang's Old Duck". Even if Zhou Wen was not very good at calligraphy, he could still read these words.
Founder and Hunhong are definitely not written by ordinary people.
Liu Ruoshui also looked at these words and said: "Although the storefront is ordinary, the words on this plaque were written by a famous scholar in Nanjing City in the late Qing Dynasty. He can be regarded as an expert treasure of this old store."
At this time, a young man in Chinese tunic suit came up to the door of the store, bowed slightly to Liu Ruoshui and said: "Director Liu, the seats have been reserved for the table next to the window on the second floor. Do you want the store to start?"
Is the food served?”
Liu Ruoshui laughed and said: "Serve the dishes, my stomach is already growling with hunger. Xiao Zhang, please call the driver and order a few dishes downstairs. You have worked hard too."
The party staff member named Xiao Zhang seemed to have been arranged by Liu Ruoshui to book a table before. Zhou Wen wondered: "It's almost afternoon now, are there still so many guests?"
Liu Ruoshui smiled mysteriously and said, "Wouldn't you know if you go in and take a look?"
At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps caused several people at the door of the store to look sideways, and saw several neatly dressed soldiers striding from the alley entrance.
