"Captain Gao, I have admired my name for a long time, and I can finally see you today!"
Gao Hongming looked at this man with a smile on his face and wearing the rank of major general, his eyes showed confusion, surprise and even a bad premonition in his heart.
There was no other reason. Although he had never heard of the man named Wang Zheng in front of him, his identity was not simple. He was the deputy director of the First Division of the Attendant of the Chairman of the Military Commission of the National Government.
Most people may be unfamiliar with this organization, but those who are familiar with it understand the value of this name. This organization is not simple, and its functions and powers are even comparable to those of the Military Aircraft Department during the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
To a certain extent, it can affect China's military, political, diplomatic, party affairs, personnel and other matters. This organization has always been valued by Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, and is even large enough to decide what kind of information will be submitted to the Chairman, as well as influence
The extent of the chairman's influence on personnel promotion and dismissal was unparalleled.
It can be said that during the entire Anti-Japanese War, the Attendant's Room basically represented Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. No matter whether you were a division commander, corps commander, group army commander or theater commander, you had to give respect to the people in the Attendant's Room.
But now a deputy director of the attendant's office actually found him, which made Gao Hongming feel surprised but also had a bad feeling.
"Director Wang, please sit down." Gao Hongming invited Wang Zheng to sit down, and then said apologetically.
"I'm really sorry, Director Wang. My brother just came back from the Pacific. He has been busy dealing with things these past few days. It was only today that I couldn't take the time to see you. I hope Director Wang Haihan will do that."
"I understand, I have heard that the place Commander Gao went to this time was to a place in the Pacific called Guadalcanal. You personally led your troops to join forces with the US military and the Japanese to fight bloody battles on Guadalcanal for several months. You were killed.
He has faced countless enemies and greatly promoted our country's prestige overseas. He is truly a role model for our generation!"
Wang Zheng, who had a smile on his face, kept praising him, and his expression and attitude were extremely sincere. There was nothing wrong with him at all, as if every word came from his heart, which was amazing.
Even Gao Hongming couldn't help but sigh to himself, no wonder he was able to sneak into the deputy director of the attendant's room. The manager's ability to talk is not something ordinary people can do.
If others heard that the other party was just a deputy director, they might feel contemptuous, but Gao Hongming, who knew the power of the attendant's room, knew that.
Chiang Kai-shek's attendant room was divided into several parts, the most important of which were three, namely the first, second and third offices.
One of them is responsible for military and intelligence operations, the second is responsible for party affairs and political affairs, and the third is responsible for personnel investigation and assessment services.
As for others, such as the Chief of Guard's Office, which is the security unit of the Generalissimo, and the Counselor's Office, which studies specialized domestic and foreign affairs issues for Chiang's reference, it is quite similar to a think tank organization.
Among these units, one has the heaviest responsibilities and is specifically responsible for the country's military and intelligence. Its authority is evident. Now one of its deputy directors has come all the way to find him.
As the saying goes, if you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything, Gao Hongming certainly won't think that he is so handsome that he has alarmed the central government.
"Director Wang, you are very flattering. You are a popular person next to the Chairman. Mr. Gao is just the leader of a local vigilante group. To put it bluntly, he is just a dirt-legged guy from the countryside. How can I compare with you."
Wang Zheng waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey, Commander Gao must not say that. If you are stupid, so many Japanese soldiers who died under your hands will not be so angry that they will jump out of their coffins!"
After saying that, both of them laughed, but they both cursed in their hearts at the same time: "Old fox (little fox)."
After exchanging pleasantries and testing each other, Wang Zheng saw that he could not get any advantage from Gao Hongming, so he suppressed his smile, took out a set of military uniforms and a letter of appointment from the briefcase beside him and gently placed them on the table sincerely.
said:
"Captain Gao, actually, my brother is here to bring you this set of military uniforms on behalf of the Military Commission. This set of uniforms has been placed in the Attendant's Room since you rejected the appointment from the Military and Political Department two years ago.
Before I came this time, the Chairman of the Generalissimo and Chief Zhang Zhizhong repeatedly told me that you must accept this military uniform, otherwise I will not go back, so I have to shamelessly ask you to accept it."
Gao Hongming frowned, "Director Wang, I..."
Before Gao Hongming could finish speaking, Wang Zheng interrupted him, "Brother Gao, don't worry, Chief Zhang already told me before coming here this time that your letter of appointment was issued and signed by the Chairman himself.
The Chairman of the Generalissimo said personally that this military rank is only an honorary rank. He will not recruit your troops, nor will he force you to obey the orders of the Military Commission. As long as you accept the letter of appointment and wear this military uniform, you will be fine.
.”
Seeing Gao Hongming pick up the letter of appointment, the smile on Wang Zheng's face became even brighter, and he added: "Don't worry, the Central Daily News will officially publish your appointment in the newspaper in the next few days."
Gao Hongming put down the letter of appointment and looked at Wang Zheng again: "Director Wang, people don't tell secrets, so you'd better tell the truth. What's the important thing for you to come here this time?
I just came back from Guadalcanal and haven’t rested for a few days yet, so please don’t give me any problems.”
Gao Hongming just returned to Liantai County a week ago. As the saying goes, a breakup is better than a wedding.
There were three beautiful daughters-in-law at home waiting for him to comfort him. He had to plow the land several times every night for seven or eight days in a row, which was too much for even his strongest body.
Now that the words have been spoken, Wang Zheng has revealed the truth.
"Commander Gao, it's like this... I am here on the orders of the Chairman of the Standing Committee to serve the more than 100,000 soldiers of the expeditionary force to Yunnan and Burma..."
Half an hour later, Wang Zheng finished explaining the situation, but Gao Hongming's brows were already furrowed.
Judging from the trajectory of another time and space, the expedition had already been forced to retreat due to a huge defeat.
Some of them withdrew into India, and the other part withdrew from Savage Mountain to the country. However, the fate of the troops withdrawn from Savage Mountain was really miserable, and only one out of ten could return to the country.
But here, the battle situation has undergone some changes. What was supposed to be a great victory in the defense of Tonggu took a big turn. The 200 Division was stabbed in the back by the British, resulting in victory first and then defeat. Not only the division commander Dai Anlan
He died heroically, and even the officers and soldiers of the entire division were surrounded by two Japanese divisions.
