Seemingly noticing the strange behavior between Mr. Zhu and Vice Chairman Zhou, the tall figures with their backs to the courtyard gate also turned around.
Then Xu Rui saw the real-life version of Chairman Mao, not the actor in the film and television drama, nor the portrait hanging high on the Tiananmen Gate. How can I put it, the real-life version of Chairman Mao looked more beautiful than the Chairman Mao in the film and television drama?
Ordinary, especially the clothes he was wearing, which were much more torn than the clothes in movies and TV shows. They were really torn. They were really made of patches and patches. There was almost no piece of complete cloth! And it was wrinkled and out of shape.
.
However, it was still very clean after washing, and it was almost faded.
At this time, the guard had already entered the yard and reported: "Chairman, Commander Xu is here."
Hearing the guard talking about himself, Xu Rui immediately strode into the yard, stood at attention first, then raised his right hand and saluted Chairman Mao with a standard military salute. After a second's pause, he turned to Boss Zhu and Vice Chairman Zhou respectively.
In greeting, Vice Chairman Zhou and Mr. Zhu quickly stood up, and Mr. Zhu even returned the military salute.
After saluting, Xu Rui shouted at the top of his lungs: "Report to the Chairman, Xu Rui, the leader of the newly formed Fourth Army of the National Revolutionary Army and directly under the Songhu Independent Regiment, is here to report. Please give instructions!"
Xu Rui shouted the last two words of instruction not only loudly but also with great momentum.
This is a piece of practical information summarized from the PLA’s nearly 100-year training history. Xu Rui yelled a lot!
Chairman Mao, Boss Zhu and Vice Chairman Zhou immediately felt a strong and fierce aura coming towards their faces. Xu Rui was obviously the only one shouting, but to Chairman Mao and the three of them, it felt as if there was a big army roaring in front of them.
, the kind of bravery that comes from his bones is simply impossible to describe with words.
But Chairman Mao was Chairman Mao after all, and he immediately returned to normal after being slightly surprised.
Then, Chairman Mao smiled and extended his right hand to Xu Rui. Xu Rui quickly stretched out his hands to shake Chairman Mao's right hand. When shaking hands, Xu Rui could feel that Chairman Mao's hand was big and full of power. More importantly,
Unfortunately, there were thick calluses on his palms. Chairman Mao rarely held a gun. It was probably worn out while doing farm work.
But in Xu Rui’s memory, the large-scale production movement in Yan’an hasn’t started yet, right? The chairman usually does farm work?
"Comrade Xu Rui, you've got it right." Chairman Mao shook his hand vigorously and said with a smile, "The boss is impatient."
Boss Zhu also came forward, shook hands with Xu Rui, and said enthusiastically: "Comrade Xu Rui, today we have met you in person. Yes, you are much more handsome than in the photo!"
Vice Chairman Zhou also stepped forward to shake hands with Xu Rui vigorously and said with a smile: "Comrade Xu Rui, you don't know, the chairman and the boss were talking about you just now, but they didn't expect that you are here now."
Xu Rui shook hands with Chairman Mao, Mr. Zhu and Vice Chairman Zhou respectively, then turned around and motioned to the accompanying Digua to present the gift in his hand. Xu Rui first picked up a wooden box and said to Chairman Mao: "Chairman, this is
I bought these cigars from a Cuban businessman when I was in Shanghai. I originally planned to keep them for myself, but when I came to Yan'an to study this time, I thought I couldn't come to see you empty-handed, so I gave them to you. Can you please
Don’t dislike it.”
Chairman Mao happily accepted the box of cigars and lit one to smoke.
Xu Rui picked up the second red silk cloth bag and opened it, but it turned out to be an exquisite small pistol.
Xu Rui handed the small pistol to Boss Zhu and said: "Boss, I know you like pistols. This pistol is a limited edition made by the American Remington Company. There are only ten in the world. Although the price is very cheap, it has great collection value.
But extremely high.”
Mr. Zhu happily took the small pistol and said with a smile: "I have to keep this, don't let Chen Geng steal it for me again."
Chairman Mao and Vice Chairman Zhou burst out laughing, because there is another allusion here. There is a red date tree in the yard of Mr. Zhu’s house. The red dates have not yet reached the mature season, but they are hanging heavily on the branches.
It was very eye-catching. Chen Geng would go to Mr. Zhu’s house whenever he had something to do, saying he was reporting on work. However, after every report, there would be far fewer half-red but not red dates on the jujube tree in the yard, but Chen Geng would pick them secretly.
.
Xu Rui took out the last small gift box and said to Vice Chairman Zhou: "Vice Chairman, this is a gold Parker pen. I seized it from an old warlord during the smoking ban in Shanghai. I don't usually use the pen, so keeping it is a waste.
It’s up to you to get the most out of this Parker pen.”
Parker gold pen does not refer to a pen made of gold, it is just a pen model.
Vice Chairman Zhou also happily accepted the gift. Although our party attaches great importance to building a clean government, and a year later, Chairman Mao would even launch a rectification movement, but there is no prohibition on giving small gifts to revolutionary comrades. The Communist Party
After all, members of the Communist Party of China are also human beings, not immortals who do not eat the fireworks of the world.
Chairman Mao smiled and joked: "Boss, does Comrade Xu Rui consider this a bribe? Have we made any mistakes?"
"Of course not." Mr. Zhu smiled and said, "We Communists are not immortals who kill love and sex. We also have relatives and friends. How can gifts between friends be considered bribes?"
Vice Chairman Zhou continued: "Of course, it is limited to small amounts of gifts."
Xu Rui quickly waved his hands and said, "It's not valuable. These gifts are not valuable."
Chairman Mao laughed, took Xu Rui's hand again, and said with a smile: "Comrade Xu Rui, come sit down and tell us your battle stories in Damei Mountain and Shanghai Beach."
Mr. Zhu then added: "There are also battle stories in Tokyo."
Xu Rui quickly waved his hand and said: "Chairman, boss, you are all old revolutionaries and old Red Army soldiers. What kind of storms have you never seen? What kind of battles have you not experienced? With my little experience, I see you old revolutionaries and old Red Army soldiers.
Compared to it, it’s nothing at all, so you’d better not make me look ugly, right?”
"That's different. Confucius also said that if three people are walking together, there must be someone who is my teacher." Chairman Mao waved his hand and said, "What's more, the urban guerrilla warfare you commanded in Shanghai inspired us very much."
"The enemy." Mr. Zhu nodded repeatedly and said, "Limited by the conditions, urban guerrilla warfare may not be of much use at this stage, but I believe that it will definitely come in handy in the near future." After saying this, he waved his hand vigorously again.
, said loudly, "One day, we will launch a counterattack against the large and medium-sized cities heavily guarded by the Japanese!"
Xu Rui said: "Okay, then I will briefly talk about urban guerrilla warfare."
Urban guerrilla warfare appeared relatively late and was indeed a new thing to the older generation of revolutionaries.
Chairman Mao hummed and leaned against the stone roller with an expression of attentive listening on his face. Mr. Zhu also brought a small chair and sat next to Vice Chairman Zhou.
Chairman, Mr. Zhu and Vice Chairman Zhou don’t have many people in class. This is enough for him to brag about for a lifetime.
Now Xu Rui began to explain urban guerrilla warfare in earnest.
…
Almost at the same time, it was administered by the Xining Provincial Government in Qinghai.
In the provincial chairman's office, Ma Bufang was lying on a rocking chair with his eyes closed, humming an unknown ditty.
At least at this time, Ma Bufang was in a good mood, because Ma Biao's 1st Cavalry Division had just won a victory in Huaiyang, wiping out more than a thousand Japanese troops. This battle really made Qingma famous, and the only
The only fly in the ointment is that Ma Bingzhong, the brigade commander of the Second Cavalry Brigade, died on the battlefield, leaving Qingma without an effective general!
However, every loss must have a gain. Although Ma Bingzhong is gone, Allah has sent him a younger, braver and more capable general, that is, his nephew Ma Chengxiang, who has just returned from the training class of the Central Military Academy.
Ma Chengxiang is also the second Qingma officer to return from the Central Military Academy after Ma Jiyuan.
Although the influence of young officers in Qingma is still very small, they have begun to make a mark.
As soon as Ma Bufang started chanting about Ma Chengxiang, the rhythmic footsteps sounded outside the office.
A few seconds later, a handsome figure entered Ma Bufang's office holding a telegram, but it was none other than Ma Chengxiang.
Ma Chengxiang had just graduated from the training class of the Central Military Academy. Ma Bufang had not yet decided where to arrange for him to serve, so he stayed with him as an adjutant. However, this was only temporary, because Ma Bufang valued Ma Chengxiang very much, and it would not take long.
He will definitely be entrusted with important responsibilities, and he will at least be a group leader.
After entering the public room, Ma Chengxiang stood at attention and paid a meticulous military salute to Ma Bufang. Then he put down his hand and said, "Chairman, there is an urgent telegram from the Military Command Bureau."
Ma Bufang hummed, very satisfied that Ma Chengxiang did not call him uncle, but called him chairman.
The Qinghai Majia Army is essentially an army formed based on feudal family blood relations. Almost all senior officers are in-laws of the Ma family, and the backbone of the army are basically children of the same clan and hometown in Linxia County. However, Ma Bufang wants to
The implementation of a modern military and political system within Qingma, even if it is only in form, is something that we will never tire of.
Therefore, Ma Chengxiang's modern style is very useful to Ma Bufang, who has seen the big world.
However, on the surface, Ma Bufang still pretended to be very easy-going, waved her hand and said, "Yunzhang, you don't need to be so reserved in front of your uncle, act like an outsider."
Ma Chengxiang said: "The Chairman's words are wrong. At home, Yunzhang and the Chairman have a nephew-uncle relationship, but at the public house, in a humble position, he and the Chairman have a superior-subordinate relationship. The etiquette cannot be discarded."
Ma Bufang immediately straightened her face and said, "Well, what did the telegram say?"
Ma Chengxiang immediately unfolded the telegram and read: "Brother Zixiang (Ma Bufang's cousin): I heard that the Soviet Communist Party has just delivered six trucks of military supplies to the Eighth Route Army Office in Dihua in Dihua, and intends to transport them back to Shaanxi via the Great Northwest Highway.
North, brother should take advantage of the opportunity, brother Yunong worships, the twenty-eighth year of the Republic of China, the tenth day of the ninth month."
"Yes." Ma Bufang pondered for a moment and then said, "Yunzhang, immediately forward Dai Li's telegram to Yushan and ask him to make preparations in advance. Under no circumstances should these six trucks of supplies pass through Zhangye."
"Yes." Ma Chengxiang agreed, turned around and left in a hurry.
