Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 852: Mountain City Chongqing

Tang Qiuli was about to leave for Chongqing, and met with Stalin's special envoy Molotov, who had been waiting impatiently and fuming. After receiving the telegram that Shanhu had returned, he put the last worries in his heart to rest and led the fleet back from Qiuquan.

After Qingdao Naval Base, what he couldn't let go of was Shan Hu's lone army.

It’s not that they are worried about anything else, they are just afraid that they will encounter the Japanese fleet. The combined combat effectiveness of a destroyer led by Shan Hu and Chu Tian and several other non-combat ships is not enough to fill a gap in the Japanese navy’s fleet.

, Therefore, Tang Qiuli's order to Shan Hu and Chu Tian was just two words: "Avoid fighting" and don't fight if you can. If they are surrounded by the Japanese naval fleet, the vast sea is no joke.

In the past few days, he has been worried about Shan Hu, who is afraid that after seeing the Japanese, he can't help but take action. With Shan Hu's temper, if he doesn't fight the little Japanese, it will be more uncomfortable than killing him.

, However, Chutian and Shanhu were together, which made Tang Qiuli feel more relieved. He was the soon-to-be captain of the special warfare detachment of the ** Division. If he couldn't even grasp the situation, he would be really worried.

Give him your fist army.

The sea and sky merged, and the water and sky were the same color. Several faint shadows of ships appeared in Tang Qiuli's field of vision. The figures of the warships became increasingly clear. The long wakes left by the ships breaking through the sea water could already be seen. Only five or six ships entered the port.

Of course, the scene of the warships was not as spectacular as when the entire fleet entered the port, but in Tang Qiuli's view, it felt like a brother returning home.

Shan Hu walked off the destroyer in high spirits. Several days of sailing at sea did not affect his mental state at all. He was still as powerful as a tiger. Probably this guy is used to life at sea, especially if he likes it like Brother Qiuquan.

Navy? Tang Qiuli thought secretly.

The way Shan Hu and Tang Qiuli met was definitely different from other officers of the Navy. The two first gave a bear hug, which made the eyes of the Soviet sailors who had just put on the Chinese Navy uniforms go straight. A four-star general and

After meeting a colonel, he showed no formality and formality like a superior or subordinate. He looked like a brother reunited after a long separation. These Chinese people really couldn't understand him.

Then, they opened a little distance from each other and looked at each other carefully. From each other's eyes, they could read the care and emotion in their hearts. Tang Qiuli said with a smile: "Huzi, you seem to be in good spirits. These are all yours."

Did you get it back?" Shan Hu smiled honestly and replied: "The little devil gave it to me, so I don't want it for free, but these big guys are still very motivated, and the cannon is powerful enough."

After saying that, the two of them laughed. Chu Tian was not as casual as Shan Hu. After the two of them finished making out, he stood at attention and saluted, and said in a clear voice: "Report to the division commander, Chu Tian, ​​captain of the ninth detachment of the special warfare detachment of the ** Division, has completed the mission and returned to the team.

, ask the teacher for instructions."

Tang Qiuli looked at Chu Tian with a smile and said: "Captain Chu, no, Captain Chu, you have worked hard, hurry up and rest." Chu Tian was stunned, thinking it was the division commander's slip of the tongue, and looked at Tang Qiuli doubtfully,

Tang Qiuli smiled and didn't answer. Chutian, full of doubts, led the soldiers of the ninth division to have a rest.

Tang Qiuli turned to Shan Hu and said, "Huzi, you can't rest anymore. Come with me to Chongqing and leave immediately." Shan Hu readily agreed. For him, as long as he could be with Tang Qiuli, he would go anywhere.

No matter what, Tang Qiuli drove to the airport with Shan Hu and eighteen special guard soldiers.

A transport plane and eight escorting fighter jets have been parked on the runway. This is the unanimous request of all regiment-level generals of the ** Division. When the division commander takes the plane, there will be no less than eight escorting fighter jets. In this way, Tang

Qiu Li couldn't keep a low profile even if he wanted to. He saw fighter jets and several five-pointed star patterns sprayed on the fuselages of the fighter jets, which represented the number of enemy planes shot down by this pilot.

I counted carefully and found that the aircraft that shot down the most Japanese or Soviet aircraft had four stars. I couldn't help but think of my nephew Tang Yunfei who was recovering from his injuries in Dingbian. This little guy's plane should also have two stars, right? There are also

The two wives in Dingbian and the elderly on both sides should find time to go home and have a look.

The plane soared into the blue sky, and the azure sea and Shandong Peninsula gradually faded away. The plane passed over the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River and the land of Jingchu, and flew toward the southwest. Continuous mountains began to appear under the wings, and it had entered the Sichuan Basin. Since the government moved its capital to Chongqing,

After that, Tang Qiuli returned to his wartime capital for the first time.

When the plane landed at Chongqing Airport, there were no armed military police standing there, no huge welcoming crowd, no civil and military officials with different ideas, no numerous local reporters, and no deliberately arranged scenes. Tang Qiuli felt much more relaxed than expected.

Unexpectedly, the Soviet Ambassador to China Oveshinsky and the German Ambassador to China, Count von Schederslang, appeared at the airport together.

Moreover, the two of them were chatting and joking very lively. Tang Qiuli couldn't help but sigh. At least two years after the Soviet Union went to war with Germany, I'm afraid such a scene would never happen again. However, these two diplomats would never know how to do it.

Thinking that two years later, Germany and the Soviet Union would fight each other and fight to the death. Apart from the ambassadors of the two countries, there were only a few staff members of the Military Commission's office. The scene was somewhat deserted, unlike the scenes in the previous visits to Nanjing.

In comparison, it can be described as shabby.

Without asking, Tang Qiuli had already guessed Chairman Chiang's intention. This was to tell the Soviet and German ambassadors to China that Tang Qiuli, a mere Tang Qiuli, could not represent the government of the Republic of China. He was just one of the many officials in the government.

, has not yet reached the trend of overriding Chairman Chiang Kai-shek.

This is a blatant loss of face for Tang Qiuli. According to his status, the second-largest figure in the Republic of China, when he came to the capital for the first time, there should be a welcome scene corresponding to his status. In Tang Qiuli's view, this

It's a bit petty, and you shouldn't act like this in front of foreigners. You can't get around the problems in the Far East and Northeast at all.

If the Soviets and Japanese don't talk to themselves, why should they talk to you, Chairman Chiang? It's a joke. Not to mention blocking the Japanese from going south in the north, the achievements in recovering North China and Outer Mongolia alone are worthy of Chongqing.

Tang Qiuli didn't care much about whether there was a scene or not, but Chongqing's indifference to him made Tang Qiuli very unhappy.

The Soviet ambassador to China, Oveshinsky, rushed to greet the German ambassador, "Dear General Tang, welcome to the beautiful mountain city of Chongqing. I have prepared good coffee at the embassy and specially asked General Tang to condescend to go to the Soviet Embassy.

," Tang Qiuli found it very funny and ironic that a foreigner would welcome him on Chinese soil.

It can also be seen from this that the Soviets were impatient and wanted to pick him up at the airport. The German Ambassador to China, Count von Schederslang, who did not grab him, shrugged with a look of helplessness. He was only responsible for picking him up.

The Japanese intermediary who built the bridge, although the Japanese envoy was waiting in the German Embassy in China, restless and fuming, did not have the strength of the Soviets to intervene directly.

You will never snatch Tang Qiuli away from Ovisinsky, right? Not to mention the difficulty and consequences of doing so, it is not worth offending the Soviets just for the Japanese who I dislike very much. If it weren't for Germany

Foreign Minister Ribbentrop repeatedly asked the embassy to assist the Japanese, but Count von Schederslan would not pay attention to the Japanese at all.

Of course, Tang Qiuli didn't want to waste time. The business was at its peak right now. Any later would have been too much, so he followed Ovisinsky towards the car. The staff of the Military Commission were anxious and hurriedly stepped forward to block the way.

, "Vice Chairman, Director Yang from the General Office has prepared a guest room for the Vice Chairman in the hotel. Please tell me where to stay."

Tang Qiuli looked coldly at these staff members who smelled obviously wrong. As an agent, no matter how well you hide it, his professional characteristics will still be unsatisfactory in the eyes of a veteran like Tang Qiuli.

We can see the clues, but we don't know whether they are Chen Guofu's Central Unification agents or Dai Li's Military Unification agents.

After Tang Qiuli looked at these people coldly, his tone became colder and he said: "Thank you, Director Yang, for your kindness. You go back and tell him that you have found a place to stay in Chongqing. I am here to accompany you on a purely personal basis this time.

The Military Commission doesn’t have to worry about rape.” After saying that, he got into the Soviet ambassador’s car.

Several agents who were temporary staff members of the Military Commission looked at each other. They did not expect that this young vice chairman was even more difficult to deal with than the legend said. If he deliberately tried to obstruct him, he would be intimidated by Tang Qiuli's status, especially

The look in the vice chairman's eyes was enough to kill people. He didn't know what to do, so he rubbed his hands together in a hurry.

Just as they were hesitating, something flashed in front of their eyes, and a body like a hill approached them. A burly man looked at them with colder eyes than Tang Qiuli. His whole body exuded murderous aura and the smell of an iron-blooded soldier, which made these people who could only secretly cause trouble.

The agents felt nervous. Behind the big man, a dozen armed officers looked at them with evil eyes.

These agents absolutely believe that as long as they take another half step forward, these military uniforms are obviously different from the officers of the Central Army, and they will be beaten into a sieve. Especially this big man, the black lines on his face have popped up, and the copper bells

There was already a fierce light in his big eyes. How could the agents dare to move even half a step? He felt cold in his heart. Jun secretly guessed, could this be the legendary bodyguard of Vice Chairman Tang? All of them have a few abilities.

A cold-blooded killer who took hundreds of Japanese lives?

Several agents could only watch helplessly as Tang Qiuli's motorcade drove away, disappeared around the corner of the airport, got into the car, and hurried back to report the news. These people were subordinates of the Central Commander Chen Guofu.

The other purpose was to interfere with Tang Qiuli's normal meeting with the Soviets.

In Chen Guofu's words: "Tang Qiuli can no longer be allowed to increase his strength. Private transactions with the Soviets will not be beneficial to the Central Committee." Chairman Chiang did not know what kind of mentality he was in, but he acquiesced to Chen Guofu's arrangements, including at the airport today.

The deserted scenes were all created by Chen Guofu, just to embarrass Tang Qiuli in front of the Soviet and German ambassadors.
