"Are you Sun Dahai?" Taizong walked up to Sun Dahai and called out his name without waiting for his secretary to say anything.
"I am Sun Dahai, hello Grandpa Deng! How do you know my name?"
"Haha, I always hear Grandpa Huang talking about you, but I still don't know your name? You are doing well, study hard, and strive to make greater contributions to the country."
"Thank you Grandpa Deng, I will work hard."
"Little Yuanyuan, do you like to play at the seaside?"
…
Taizong walked back to the front of the car and sat in the second row. Several people who got on the car with him sat around him.
The staff closed the curtains on the car windows from the front to the back and told everyone in a low voice not to open the curtains or open the car windows before reaching the finish line.
The car started slowly, drove out from the side door of Da Nei, and turned onto Chang'an Street.
In this era, there are not many vehicles on the street, and even Chang'an Street, the busiest street in the capital, is very smooth. What affects the speed of the car is only the traffic lights and the performance of the car.
When Taizong's motorcade traveled, it was not as grand as Sun Dahai had imagined. There was a police car without its lights on, driving silently at the front.
Behind the police car were two red flag cars that had been added at some point, and behind them were Mr. Huang and his four cars.
Mr. Huang and the others all changed their cars to the Santana that just rolled off the assembly line in April.
Santana was successfully assembled by the Shanghai Automobile Factory. At this time, the relevant terms of the joint venture automobile factory were still under intense negotiation.
The Central Advisory Committee was just established in September last year, and many people used the vehicles of the original unit. After the Santana was successfully assembled, the Central Advisory Committee placed an order for 50 vehicles. After Mr. Huang and the others replaced the old cars with new ones, they returned the old cars.
.
Mr. Huang's car was at the end of the queue. The bus Sun Dahai was riding was right behind Mr. Huang's car. Behind the bus were minibuses with security personnel, medical vehicles and several vehicles of unknown purpose following behind.
, and finally a police car became the tail of the convoy.
The entire convoy, consisting of more than a dozen large and small cars, silently sped eastward. When it passed through Tong County and reached the border of Hebei Province, the two police cars from the capital turned around and returned.
Two police cars from Hebei Province, which had been waiting at the provincial border for a long time, took over their duties. The convoy continued westward without stopping, passing through Phoenix City and reaching Beidaihe in Qin City.
On the bus, Taizong was resting his head with his eyes closed, and his secretary was sitting next to him, reading a newspaper to him in a low voice. After more than three hours of driving, the children were already swaying around and starting to doze off.
Before leaving the capital, the staff had already given everyone extra meals. Everyone, including Taizong, had a cup of hot milk poured from a thermos bottle and a few snacks.
The staff just informed everyone that there is a resting point in front, which is an elementary school. The team will take a break there and everyone should take the time to go to the toilet.
After a while, we will drive again without stopping in the middle. In about two hours, the motorcade will go directly to the sanatorium. We will wait until the sanatorium for lunch, as it is already ready there.
While talking, the motorcade left the road, drove for about five minutes, and entered a primary school next to a small town.
There are two vehicles parked next to the primary school's dirt yard, which should be vehicles for advance personnel. Several staff members are waiting for the arrival of the convoy at the gate.
The school was on holiday, and it seemed that only the principal and the guard were waiting here. Taizong, led by his entourage, also went to the toilet, and then met the principal in the car.
It can be seen that the principal did not know about the arrival of the motorcade in advance. When he spoke to Taizong, he looked excited and spoke incoherently. Fortunately, he quickly controlled his emotions and answered Taizong's questions seriously.
The reception did not last long, about five minutes, and the principal was taken out of the car by the staff. At this time, everyone had finished their rest, and the motorcade set off again.
The convoy did not return the same way, but wanted to take a shortcut to the highway. Sun Dahai was in the car, looking boredly at the scenery of the countryside outside through the gauze curtain, longing for the highway in his previous life.
The distance from the capital to Beidaihe is less than 300 kilometers. In the previous life, Sun Dahai drove himself and it took less than three hours. But now this trip may take six hours to arrive.
Suddenly, something seemed to happen in front, and the cars in the convoy stopped one after another.
Sun Dahai, who was dozing off in a daze, was woken up. He looked out the window and saw that he was still on the road. Why did he stop?
There was a faint noise from the front of the motorcade.
The door of the bus opened, and several people got off the minibus from behind. Two of them got on the bus, sat near the door, and then closed the door. The remaining people stood in front of and on both sides of the bus.
His waist was bulging and he was silent.
The bus was very quiet. People who had been drowsy just now all woke up. No one knew what happened. They only heard the noise in front getting louder and louder.
The bus has a high body and good visibility, and you can see some things in front of you from inside the bus.
I saw that the road at the front seemed to be blocked by a wooden frame, surrounded by about twenty or thirty people. Two policemen got out of the police car that opened the way and were negotiating with the other party in front of the car.
After a while, two more police officers came running from behind. They should be the people in the police car behind the car.
Four policemen were negotiating in front, but the noise became louder and louder. Suddenly, there seemed to be a fight in front, and more than a dozen people were in a mess. Because they were far away, they couldn't see clearly, but it seemed that the other party used wooden sticks or something like that.
arms.
The police car that opened the road turned on its lights and siren, and the shrill siren stopped the situation from deteriorating. Both parties stepped back a certain distance and started negotiating again.
What happened? Everyone in the bus was a little flustered. But seeing Taizong sitting upright in his seat, as steady as a mountain, everyone gradually calmed down.
People came down one after another from the front and rear of the motorcade and walked to the front. After a while, a staff member came back from the front and got on the bus to report what happened ahead.
The matter is very simple. It's just a group of local people blocking the highway and illegally collecting tolls.
The police car clearing the way was sent by the Hebei Province Provincial Department and was not from Phoenix City. The two parties did not know each other.
The gangs that illegally blocked the road were too rampant. When they saw the motorcade and the police cars clearing the road, they did not know how to restrain themselves. They even attempted to charge fees, and finally even had physical conflicts with the police.
Taizong whispered a few words to his secretary, who got out of the car and went to a fully enclosed car behind.
Sun Dahai was sitting at the back of the bus and could not see Taizong's expression. But it can be imagined that he must be very angry now.
Taizong was a soldier who truly fought on the battlefield of blood and fire, and he was decisive in killing. For him, this small scene was nothing like a drizzle.
For Taizong, this incident represented the chaos of local social security. The evil forces, while illegally blocking roads and tolling, actually openly defied the state machinery and actively attacked police officers on duty, which shows their arrogance.
The secretary came back and said to Taizong: "The director of the Phoenix City Public Security Bureau has been notified. He promises to arrive within fifteen minutes and take care of everything."
