Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 288: War of words

The whole place suddenly fell silent. This was a question that reporters were holding back but didn't know how to ask. Such a big event happened in Pingjin. Chinese reporters are well aware of the principle that misfortunes come from their mouths. Since the founding of the Republic of China, they have used

Are there still too many incidents where political issues are solved with the barrel of a gun?

To put it aside, Chairman, isn't this the method used to deal with the Communist Party? The method is much bloodier than this, and I don't see anyone who dares to publicly speak against it.

Would General Tang dare to make such a big move without the approval of Chairman Nanjing? It is better not to ask such sensitive questions.

Those reporters who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity for the Nanjing political faction returned to Peiping and saw that the situation had been settled and irreversible. No matter how hard they tried, it was of no avail. These people were well-informed people, that is,

Silenced and pretended not to know about the matter.

Now that the Japanese have publicly revealed this matter, thinking of the assassination of Song Zheyuan, I am afraid that the question raised by the Ta Kung Pao reporter may exist. Tang Qiuli made the Japanese miserable, and the Japanese took advantage of this to make trouble.

.

It would be best for Tang Qiuli to see that the Nanjing government, especially the Chairman of the Generalissimo, would be discredited as a dictator and a big warlord.

These people had mixed feelings. On the one hand, they did not want to damage the chairman's reputation. On the other hand, they also hoped that Tang Qiuli would make a big mistake in front of the Japanese reporters and his reputation would be tarnished, which would also relieve their personal grudges.

Other reporters who have no selfish thoughts are very worried about Tang Qiuli. The questions raised by Japanese reporters are difficult to answer and difficult to determine, especially when they involve national leaders. After all, arrests are a fact. Three days of large-scale manhunts, how many people are there?

Thousands of people were imprisoned. With such a huge movement, it was impossible to silence everyone.

These reporters looked at Tang Qiuli with worried eyes. They really couldn't bear the thought that their favorite young general would be destroyed in the hands of the Japanese. These Japanese were hateful enough, and they couldn't even lift the pot.

Those young female reporters were even more nervous. If the idol in their hearts collapsed in an instant, it would be a kind of painful torture and injury to them. Their hands could not help but clenched, and their palms were so nervous that they were sweating.

Mei Ting was even more nervous. She was responsible for this matter. No one knew better than her how many people had been arrested and who they were. The backgrounds of these people were not simple, and their relationship with the Japanese was even more complicated.

At the beginning, Mei Ting was also worried about Tang Qiuli, otherwise, she would not be able to have that important secret report to the Military Command Bureau.

Mei Ting looked at Tang Qiuli nervously, with concern beyond words. Unfortunately, Tang Qiuli did not notice that the only person with a calm face was Song Zheyuan. In his opinion, the questions raised by the Japanese were simply too childish.

Now, if Qiu Li is here, he can handle it even in his dreams. He is the least worried person in the audience.

Tang Qiuli smiled, it was bright, sunny, but also contemptuous and contemptuous.

Suddenly, he put away his short-lived smile, his face became terrifyingly serious, and a cold air burst out.

"Mr. Xiaolin, you raised this question well. Originally, I wanted to explain this matter to my friends from the press. Since you raised it, it should be considered as an answer to the questions in the minds of all journalist friends."

"What is a dissident? Please take a look at the following and I will answer the question," Tang Qiuli waved his hand, and the staff quickly handed over the autonomy proposal for the five North China provinces drafted by Wang Yitang and others to the reporters.

There was a burst of surprised discussion below. It was obvious that the reporters did not know that the pro-Japanese faction in the North China Political Affairs Committee had come up with such a thing. They only knew that they were arrested on charges of collaborating with bandits.

"Everyone knows that a sovereign country will never allow separatist behavior, and these people who were arrested did exactly this kind of thing. As soldiers, it is our unshirkable responsibility to maintain the unity of the country. This also requires the Nanjing Government

Order?"

"What kind of thing did they do? It was an act of treason, an act of forgetting their ancestors and abandoning their ancestors. It is not an exaggeration to call them national traitors. For such national traitors, everyone can punish them, not to mention that Tang is a soldier

, it is even more obligatory, and just imprisoning him has shown the lenience of the Nanjing government and the kindness of the leader. Even if he is shot on the spot, it is also a normal behavior."

"Mr. Kobayashi, if some people in your Japanese archipelago demand autonomy for Honshu, Hokkaido, and separation from the central government, will your Japanese government agree? Will your Japanese soldiers agree? Will you, Mr. Kobayashi, agree?"

Xiao Lin and other Japanese reporters were stunned by the bombshell dropped by Tang Qiuli. Suddenly, they heard Tang Qiuli ask him, this is a matter of principle. If he wants to establish autonomy in the Empire of Japan, how many heads will he have?

, he replied without thinking: "Of course I won't agree, and I will pay a heavy price for it!"

There was a burst of boos, and Xiao Lin finally realized that he had fallen into Tang Qiuli's language trap again. He hated the people who split the country, but he criticized other countries for punishing the splitters. Isn't this a slap in the face?

Moreover, he fought very hard and with great dedication. Xiao Lin couldn't help but scold himself in his heart. He was such a stupid ass, what a piece of shit!

"Since Mr. Xiaolin has this attitude, why do you accuse Tang of normal actions and label him as a dictator or a warlord? What is his intention? What is his intention?"

"Looking at Mr. Kobayashi's attitude just now, he is quite angry. If he can raise an issue on behalf of the Japanese government and identify Tang as the murderer, is it that the so-called autonomy of the five provinces in North China that they are pursuing is in the interest of the Japanese government? Or is the Japanese government behind the scenes adding fuel to the fire?

Add support?”

"I don't believe that the Japanese government is a country that flaunts a Western democratic system. How can it do such despicable and dirty things? This is the behavior of political hooligans and rogues. From the supreme ruler to the ordinary people, they are all lunatics and engage in war.

Only a crazy country can do this!"

"It is a typical arrogant, arrogant and inferior, jealous, shameless behavior that can only be done by a country full of ambitions. Mr. Kobayashi, are you right?"

Xiao Lin is about to faint, Your Majesty the Emperor! It's not that I'm incompetent, it's that Tang Qiuli, the Chinese devil, is too cunning. I've tried my best, but you're still being scolded like a pig or a dog. Go back and commit suicide to apologize!

The applause of the reporters almost filled the hall. Everyone was so happy. They criticized every word to the point and scolded him heartily. However, they could not find any fault at all. Even in a diplomatic setting, they were impeccable. The scolding

It's you, Japan, but you have no reason to refute.

Unexpectedly, this young man was successful, a general with a heavy army in hand, his words were as sharp as a sword, and his achievements on the battlefield complemented each other. He was versatile in both civil and military affairs. No one noticed that the Japanese reporter had slipped away in a panic.

They knew very well that tonight's wonderful conversation would be prominently displayed on the front pages of major newspapers tomorrow. When they go back, they will have to bear the wrath of His Excellency the Commander, and it is unknown whether they will be able to see the sun the next morning.

Reporters surrounded Tang Qiuli, vying for his autograph. Tang Qiuli felt like a superstar before time travel. Those young female reporters pushed forward even harder, all wanting to get in front of this young general.

In front of you, leaving a deep impression.

The corners of Mei Ting's eyes were moist. She stayed away from the crowd and looked tenderly at Tang Qiuli who was surrounded by many beautiful reporters. The brilliance of this boy tonight had completely overwhelmed her hard heart. His thick black and white hair seemed to have many

Mei Ting has an urge to explore.

Mei Ting knew clearly that his shadow could no longer be driven away from her heart. It would appear even in her dreams. This trip to North China was a deep loss for her, and this kind of loss was so beautiful.

In Mei Ting's eyes, his tall and straight back was tall and dependable.

His embrace must be very strong and warm. What does that feel like? I really want to experience it. Mei Ting's cheeks turned red because of her thoughts. Fortunately, no one could see it. She sighed secretly, but raised her head to meet Song Zheyuan.

Wise eyes.

Those eyes contained complex meanings, as if they could see through the thoughts of Mei Ting's daughter's family. Mei Ting's heart became flustered for no reason, the kind of panic caused by someone discovering the secret of youth in her heart.

Song Zheyuan just smiled. He was the only one who was calm in the scene. Everyone's emotions and reactions fell into his eyes. Mei Ting's gaffe was naturally unavoidable. During this period of time together, he had a great impression of Mei Ting.

For a change.

This beautiful female lieutenant colonel is different from all the agents of the Military Command Bureau he has come into contact with. She has almost no loss of kindness and innocence in her heart. She is serious and responsible in her work and is a talented person. What is commendable is that Mei Ting does not regard herself as an outsider.

, but try your best to integrate into this new group.

From Song Zhe's sophisticated eyes, he could see that Mei Ting fell in love with Tang Qiuli, but Tang Qiuli had no feelings for her and was still very defensive. This destined Mei Ting to be in the pursuit of happiness.

Difficulties, ups and downs, sadness and grief, Song Zheyuan could only sigh in his heart.

He had no way to intervene in this matter. He also vaguely knew that when Tang Qiuli was in the Northeast, he had a fiancée. The two had a deep relationship, and the fiancée was killed by the Japanese, which made Tang Qiuli hate the Japanese.

, almost occupied his entire heart, unable to accommodate other feelings at all.

In Peiping, there were not only girls with excellent family background, appearance, and personal conditions who favored her, but there were also many parents from prominent families who entrusted him with the proposal. Every time he mentioned it, he was flatly rejected by Qiu Li.

Excellent young generals like Qiu Li and celebrities from Beijing and Tianjin are the best candidates in the hearts of girls. Mei Ting is no exception. But how difficult this road is, Mei Ting, who has just begun to fall in love, does not know. Song Zheyuan only knows how difficult this road is.

Able to have an attitude of letting nature take its course.

Sure enough, the next day, major newspapers across the country used front-page headlines to report that the acting commander of the 29th Army, the commander of the North China ** Division, the vice chairman of the Hebei-Chacha Government Affairs Committee, the commander of the Pingjin Garrison Command, and the Army Central Committee

Tang Qiuli’s answers to reporters’ questions at the press conference.

Some newspapers even devoted an entire page to reporting on this incident, and added a lot of reporters' interview remarks and miscellaneous notes. A huge photo of Tang Qiuli and Mei Ting also appeared in the newspaper.

For a time, the whole country was talking about this matter, and Tang Qiuli was once again pushed to the forefront.
