While Yang Aiyuan nodded secretly, Gao Hongming also secretly felt relieved.
He who understands history certainly knows who will win the world in the end, but of course he cannot be so stupid that he thinks he knows history so well that he is arrogant and does not take others seriously.
History tells us that arrogant people never end well.
No matter how much the Jinsui Army sent people, they were still local snakes who had ruled Shanxi for decades. This annoyed them, and they had many ways to deal with them and stumble them.
To put it bluntly, even with my own strength, I would not be intimidated by them, and there is no need to offend others at will.
A wise man will not do it if he speaks quickly and makes more enemies in vain.
After saying hello to Gao Hongming, Yang Aiyuan came to Mr. Liu again, took the lead in extending his hand and said with a smile: "I have long heard that Mr. Liu is a famous general in the field of passing. When I meet him today, he is even more famous than before!"
Mr. Liu smiled modestly: "Mr. Yang, I have given you the award. The reputation you had in the past is really not worth mentioning. But, Mr. Yang, you were a top student in the first phase of Baoding and a favorite student of Principal Jiang. You were highly regarded by Principal Jiang (this principal is not the other principal)."
Principal Jiang, please pay attention to your differences), now he is regarded as his right-hand man by Chief Yan, how can I dare to praise you."
"Hey... Brother Liu is too modest." Yang Aiyuan waved his hands repeatedly to express his disdain.
After the group reminisced about old times for a while, they finally got down to business. The two sides discussed issues such as the command, personnel arrangement, and communications of the temporary headquarters. However, this was something that the staff should worry about. As commanders, they only need to be responsible.
Just grasp the general direction.
In a temporary lounge, Gao Hongming, Mr. Liu, Political Commissar Ping, Yang Aiyuan and Sun Chu sat around a coffee table. On the coffee table was a steaming purple sand teapot, with a constant fragrance.
Flowing out of the teapot.
Mr. Liu picked up the teapot and poured tea into the cup in front of Yang Aiyuan. He poured the tea and said with a smile: "Brother Gao, everything here is good, but they only provide coffee, which made my mouth taste bitter after drinking it during this period.
Yesterday, I bought some Hongdong big leaf tea. I don’t know if it is authentic or not. Two experts, Chief Yang and Chief Sun, happened to come and taste it for me. If it is not genuine, I will go find the one that sells it tomorrow.
The fake tea boss will settle the score."
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Yang Aiyuan joked: "Mr. Liu, you are so ignorant. Brother Gao's American coffee can now be bought for fifteen dollars per can on the black market. You can buy a big bag of your big-leaf tea for one dollar, but...
You still think someone else’s coffee tastes bad, isn’t this called using your chopsticks to eat and then putting them down to scold your mother?”
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed again.
After finishing speaking, Yang Aiyuan picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "It tastes bitter but sweet and has a long aftertaste... It is undoubtedly the big leaf tea produced in Hongdong County."
While sipping tea, everyone chatted about some interesting stories from the past. When they talked about interesting points, bursts of laughter broke out from time to time. The group of people chatted quite happily.
They laughed loudly when the conversation was pleasant, and when the conversation became angry, they cursed each other. Gao Hongming was eye-opening. He did not expect that these two people who would be admired by others in later generations actually had the same temperament as ordinary people.
But then I thought about it, great men are also human beings. They also eat whole grains and have seven emotions and six desires. They laugh when they are happy and cry when they are sad.
Just like the two Ma dads who were admired by countless people in later generations, they often used all kinds of swear words in private. The richest man surnamed Wang likes to be a bully when he has nothing to do, and Brother Dong likes to tell sexy jokes with pretty girls when he has nothing to do.
In fact, these are people of flesh and blood. Are there people who are gentle and gentle but have a strong heart and never use foul language?
Maybe there are, but they are definitely less than national treasures.
After everyone was talking and laughing, Yang Aiyuan suddenly looked at Gao Hongming and said something seemingly casually.
"Commander Gao, Commander Yan heard that your Liantai Flying Corps performed outstandingly some time ago and annihilated the Japanese air power in Shanxi. It is really gratifying. Therefore, in this battle to regain Taiyuan, we must rely on your flying team.
The column’s strong support.”
Hearing this, Commander Liu and Political Commissar Heping looked at each other, with a meaningful look in their eyes, but neither of them said a word, and both looked at Gao Hongming aside.
After hearing this, Gao Hongming just smiled: "Thank you, Commander Yang. Serving the country is the duty of a soldier. As long as Hong Ming can do it, it is his duty to do so."
Listening to Gao Hongming's light words, Yang Aiyuan seemed a little unwilling, and said again: "Commander Gao, now that we have established a joint command, will the Taiwan-Lianying Flight Corps also be placed under the command of the joint command?"
"Hiss..." Sun Chu on the side chewed his teeth. What was his old boss doing? Why did he rush to others' vital points as soon as he came? Didn't he understand that the core power in Gao Hongming's hands was this?
Is it known as the largest and most elite air force in the country?
However, Yang Aiyuan has been in the officialdom for decades, and is naturally not such a brainless person. He seemed to notice that the atmosphere in the lounge was a bit solemn, and then smiled and said: "Captain Gao, don't mind, I have no intention of spying on your department.
It's just that I'm thinking that since we are now comrades fighting side by side, it would be better to explain some things clearly in advance. After all, the most taboo thing in a war is to make multiple orders.
The Liantai Flying Corps is the only and most important air force in our hands, no matter how highly we value it, it cannot be overemphasized, what do you think?"
Gao Hongming stared at Yang Aiyuan for several minutes, staring at him until his heart felt numb. Then he smiled slightly and said, "Of course...since the joint command has been established, the Taiwan Flying Corps, as an important air force this time, will naturally have to
It will be placed under the unified command of the headquarters."
Yang Aiyuan was overjoyed. Before he could utter a string of compliments, he heard Gao Hongming say directly: "Of course, since the flying column has been assigned to the joint command, then the fuel supply of this unit during the battle will
, should all the losses of ammunition, spare parts and battle losses also be borne by everyone in the joint command?"
"this……"
Yang Aiyuan was stunned now.
Looking at Yang Aiyuan who was speechless for a moment, Gao Hongming asked: "Sir Yang, as the saying goes, with rights come obligations. Since the joint command has taken over the command, it cannot leave me alone.
Spend your money to support such a huge air force, right?
How about this, I will send a telegram to Chief Yan now and ask how much money the World War II District intends to pay for support. You can rest assured that our command headquarters is a tripartite cooperation. I can bear one-third of the cost. The World War II District Chief's Department only
You only need to bear the other third, what do you think?"
At this point, Yang Aiyuan even had a layer of sweat break out on his forehead, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
