Gao Hongming opened his eyes in a daze, and looked out the window at the bright light.
Just as he was about to get up, he felt his head was still a little dizzy. Then he remembered that last night he held a banquet for the warriors of the flying group who had returned victoriously. He drank a few more drinks and came back drunk, and then fell asleep until now.
After rubbing his still dazed head, Gao Hongming shouted outside: "Ziying... Ziying..."
"Hey...here he comes..."
Following Gao Hongming's shout, Ziying, who was wearing a light purple cotton-padded jacket, opened the door curtain with light steps and walked in quickly, holding a steaming bowl in her hand.
When she saw Gao Hongming, who was half leaning on the edge of the bed and rubbing his head, she complained with distress and displeasure: "Uncle, why do you drink so much wine when you have nothing to do? Those soldiers drink wine like water."
Yes, how can you drink better than others?"
Gao Hongming burst into laughter, stretched out his hand and patted her increasingly plump buttocks, "You little girl have learned how to make arrangements for your uncle, who gave you the courage?"
"Of course she is Miss." Ziying wrinkled her straight nose, put her hands on her hips, and assumed the posture of a shrew, but with her slim figure and baby-fat face, not only did she not look fierce,
The appearance gives people a cute feeling.
Gao Hongming couldn't help laughing, and just as he was about to say something, the door was pushed open, and Qin Xiulian, who was pregnant with her belly, walked in quickly, with a rare trace of panic in her expression.
"Hong Ming...get dressed and wash up quickly, Chief Yan is here."
"ah……"
More than ten minutes later, Gao Hongming, who had finished washing, came to the living room and saw Yan Xishan, wearing a military uniform without rank, sitting on the front seat slowly sipping a cup of tea. Below him sat Sun Chu and
Wang Jingguo, commander of the Thirteenth Group Army.
Gao Hongming hurried over and said urgently: "Sir Yan... why did you come suddenly and didn't send anyone to say anything so that the juniors could greet you?"
Yan Xishan put down the tea cup and chuckled: "You kid, I am originally from Liantai County. When I come back here, I am going home. Is it possible that I have to report to you, a little kid, when I get home?"
Gao Hongming chuckled, "You are right to say that, but the world is not peaceful now. If anything happens to you, we in Shanxi will be leaderless."
Yan Xishan laughed loudly, pointed at Gao Hongming and turned to Sun Chu and Wang Jingguo next to him: "Look, look... the dolls of the Gao family can really talk. The Gao family can't develop in his hands."
It’s all difficult.”
Sun Chu and Wang Jingguo also laughed, and Wang Jingguo even joked: "I don't know whether the Gao family is prosperous or not, but I am sure that over the past year or so, the Gao family's wallet has definitely become bigger."
Sun Chu also smiled and said: "Everyone knows that Brother Gao has a good way of making money."
The group of people chatted and laughed for a long time, and then Yan Xishan said seriously: "The Gao family, you are a smart man, old man, you should understand the purpose of my visit this time, right?"
Seeing that the topic was getting to the point, Gao Hongming stopped talking in circles, "Junior has a little guess, and it should be related to the Japanese bombing of Taiyuan Airport two days ago."
"It's better for you to do it."
Yan Xishan said with a straight face, "Then do you know that as early as the 25th year of the Republic of China, the central government ordered that all air forces must be nationalized, and no troops or places are allowed to establish air forces without authorization? You are so bold and arrogant, so you are not afraid
Does the central government blame you?"
Having said this, Yan Xishan's expression was extremely serious. If an ordinary general of the Jinsui Army had been in front of him, he would have been frightened and at a loss.
But Gao Hongming ignored him and said sternly: "So, Commander Yan is here to investigate today? In that case, let the commander read out the order! As long as you speak, I am willing to disband the flying brigade immediately.
"
"you……"
Yan Xishan was really angry now. He just wanted to scare Gao Hongming and make him be more honest. He never thought that this kid would be so stubborn and dare to contradict him directly.
Seeing that Yan Xishan was so pushed that he couldn't get off the stage, Sun Chu quickly stood up and smoothed things over: "Hong Ming, Commander Yan loves you when he says this. How can you contradict him like this? Regardless of the fact that he is the commander-in-chief of the World War II zone, even if
Personally speaking, he is also your elder, how can you be so rude?"
After that, he gave Gao Hongming a hint.
Gao Hongming is not a ungrateful person. The reason why he contradicted Yan Xishan just now was mainly because he had finally formed an air force and bombed the Japanese Taiyuan Airport, severely damaging the Japanese air force. This Yan Laoxi
It was fine not to praise myself, but I actually used the Chongqing government's instructions to pressure myself. For a while, I couldn't hold back my anger.
Now that he saw Sun Chu coming forward to smooth things over, he naturally gave up. Hearing this, he stood up with a wry smile and bowed to Yan Xishan: "Junior Shicai is too rude. I hope you won't take offense, sir. Your Excellency.
A lot, don’t be like the juniors.”
Yan Xishan looked at Gao Hongming and sighed: "You melon boy, you have a really bad temper, so why not... I can't afford to offend this old man, can't you?"
Gao Hongming chuckled and scratched his head in embarrassment, "You are an elder who came from Liantai County, how can you still be as knowledgeable as the younger generation?"
Looking at Gao Hongming with a cunning expression, Yan Xishan was a little bit dumbfounded. This little guy positioned the matter as a quarrel between the elders and the younger ones as soon as he opened his mouth. This meant that they were just quarreling over private matters and had nothing to do with it.
In official matters, it would be difficult for Yan Xishan to use his status as an officer to suppress him.
He sighed softly: "Okay, I won't bullshit you little brat. Let me tell you the truth. Chongqing must have noticed that you formed a flying brigade and attacked Taiyuan Airport at night.
As the war has progressed over the years, the central government has lost almost a lot of money in terms of aircraft and pilots. Seeing that you actually purchased aircraft privately to form an air force, Zhou Zhirou (Air Force Commander) will definitely keep an eye on you as soon as possible.
If not, the Ministry of Military Affairs and Government will issue an order to nationalize your planes, so you can do it yourself."
Gao Hongming shrugged, but he looked indifferent, "What's the point? If Commander Zhou doesn't even want to lose his face, what if I give these trainers to the central government? Anyway, they are just a few junior bi-wing trainers.
.
Besides, even if the central government does take the plane away, how long can it fly without spare parts?"
Aircraft are not simple firearms such as rifles and machine guns. They are very expensive and require regular and careful maintenance. They also require a lot of fuel and spare parts. All of the above are indispensable.
After hearing this, Yan Xishan's expression was also uncertain, and he asked after a long time: "My son, Gao family, I want to ask you something, and I hope you can answer it truthfully."
