Hometown beacon smoke old time shadow

It is true that Zhaoshi has no way to return to Shanghai.Ever since Mr. Jiang raised the banner of anti-Communism, the revolutionary army has been in chaos.Hearing that the First Army and the Fourth Army had begun to clear the Communists, Zhaoshi became upset. Although the Eighth Army he was in was not many, it also had some Communists.Fortunately, they are not the direct descendants of old Jiang. The army commander turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. He also sent a message in private.

Zhaoshi went to the division commander's office—Chen Xiangfan has been promoted to deputy commander, and now the division commander who teaches is Yan Mingleo.Zhaoshi was not polite when he entered the door, and asked directly: "Instructor, do you have any news about Jiang Pu and Guofeng?" Although the identities of the two are different, Zhaoshi is still used to calling Yan Ming instructor.Yan Ming looked very bad, with a cigarette in his hand, and there were already a lot of smoked cigarette butts in the ashtray, looking at this situation, Zhaoshi was a little worried.Usually, Instructor Yan does not smoke in front of students and subordinates, and even if he happens to be caught by chance, he will stop smoking immediately.It was very unusual today. Instructor Yan saw him coming in and nodded, "Zhaoshi, sit down." After speaking, he took another puff unconsciously, and slowly exhaled light blue smoke.Yan Ming rarely called him Zhaoshi, most of the time he called him brat, and when he became serious or angry, he even called him Shen Zhaoshi by his first name.The two were separated by smoke, and he took two more puffs of cigarettes: "There are some things, don't inquire, I don't know if I can sleep peacefully." Hearing this, Zhaoshi stood up suddenly: "Instructor, are they Is something wrong?" Yan Ming shook his head: "That kid Guofeng is in the independent group, he'll be fine. Jiang Pu, alas, let's see his luck." Zhaoshi didn't know, so he blinked and asked, "I'm mainly worried about Guofeng That kid doesn’t matter, Jiang Pu is the principal’s confidant, so we shouldn’t do anything to him.” Yan Ming threw the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, picked up his teacup and drank half a glass of water, and sighed: “Confidential? Confidential I have already become the chairman of the Anti-Chiang Committee!" Zhaoshi was stunned, in his heart, Jiang Pu was always so mature and prudent, with the appearance of a big brother worthy of everyone's trust, thoughtful and considerate.He was the secretary of the director of the political department when he was in school, and the secretary of the principal after graduation. People in high positions in both parties liked him, but they never saw him flattering him.Zhaoshi once laughed at him, "I really want to pry your brain open and see what's inside!" Zhaoshi leaned on the edge of the table, his face was almost touching Yan Ming, "Where is he? Don't you persuade him?" Persuade him!" Yan Ming pushed his shoulders away and pushed him into the chair in front of the table. "What should I advise him? Advise him to give up his ideals or persuade him to beg for mercy?" Then he said: "He is not dead yet, he has gone to Wuhan. In addition, I have something to tell you, the instructor is here, the deputy teacher is an acquaintance of yours, Cheng Nan." As usual, Zhaoshi would definitely welcome Cheng Nan, but now he has Jiang Pu in his heart, and he can't be happy anymore, and said in a nasty voice: "A person like him, at a time like this, is naturally going to be successful. It’s gone.” Cheng Nan has always been a rightist among the students and teachers of Whampoa, and he has been at odds with the Communist Party classmates in the school for many years. It is said that he once fought with people because of different beliefs, until he saw Sui Jingyuan, the Communist Party, sacrificed in front of his eyes during the Eastern Expedition.The sacrifice of Sui Jingyuan was a stimulus to the Whampoa students at that time. At the memorial service, Cheng Nan also wrote a eulogy in tears, expressing that he would continue to fight in the legacy of Head Sui.After this incident, Cheng Nan's attitude towards the Communist Party and left-wing students in the school finally improved, and because of this, he later became an instructor. Of course, these did not change his own political stance.At this time, people like Cheng Nan are obviously more reassuring to some people.

Yan Ming rummaged through the cabinets and found a bottle of Moutai. After shaking it, it should have bottomed out.Looking back, he saw that Zhaoshi was still sitting in front of his table, fiddling with the cigarettes on the table, and had already pulled out one and put it under his nose to smell it.He reached out and knocked out the cigarette in Zhaoshi's hand, "Okay, don't learn!" Then he took out some money from his body and handed it to Zhaoshi: "He will report to the military headquarters in the morning, come over in the afternoon, and have dinner together in the evening. Go help I'll buy a good bottle of wine. Besides, Cheng Nan is both your senior instructor and the superior officer, so I don't need to teach you how to talk to the officer?" Zhaoshi was a little embarrassed, and he stood at attention and saluted and responded, "Yes, officer!"

At dinner time, Cheng Nan really appeared.There were still two small jars in his arms, Zhaoshi took them for him and put them on the table, then turned his head and asked: "What is it? It's so heavy. Do you want to put it away?" Good things, a jar of drunken crabs, a jar of yellow mud snails." Zhaoshi smiled: "What should I do? I have memorized it all the way, and Hunan's stinky tofu is also good for wine." Cheng Nan said disdainfully: "What do you know? This is called sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away. The gift is light and the affection is heavy. This appetizer is not worth anything, but it is made by the wife herself. The principal specially asked me to bring two jars to him, a fellow from Zhejiang." Zhao Shi He didn't take it seriously, "It's a co-author for me! That's Mrs. Lao." Cheng Nan slapped him and said, "Go away! You can't reach this platform." Zhaoshi stuck his waist: "I am also from Zhejiang. People, just treat it as a gift for me." Yan Ming impatiently said: "I just finished talking to you this morning, and the speech with the chief is not big or small!" Zhaoshi was not convinced: "Instructor, what you just said, today only Talk about old love. Mr. Cheng doesn’t care, he is willing to feel sorry for me as a junior, so don’t be angry. I’ll put the jar in the cabinet for you? This thing has to be kept in a cool place.” Yan Ming waved his hand, “Don’t take it, I’ll leave it later Alcohol, all eaten."

The three of them exchanged glasses, but each had their own concerns in their hearts. They only mentioned the scenery in the school back then, and dared not talk about the current situation. In the end, they all got drunk with the two jars of wine and vegetables.Together, they fell asleep in the lounge of the teacher's office.Early the next morning, when the wake-up call sounded, the three people sat up. Zhaoshi hurriedly said: "I have to go back and wash my face. The two teachers can rest for a while. My little staff officer is about to go out." Morning exercises." After Zhaoshi closed the door and ran away in a hurry, Yan Ming looked at Cheng Nan and said, "Don't pretend, let's talk about business." Cheng Nan hesitated: "No, it's nothing serious. The principal asked me to ask you, Is the old leg injury better? Do you still commit it frequently?” The room fell silent, and the morning exercise team outside had assembled, shouting chant.The cicadas on the tree also woke up and sounded the whistle.Regarding Cheng Nan's question, Yan Ming understood, smiled gently and said, "The climate in Hunan is not good, and I often suffer from old leg diseases. I'm afraid I won't be able to support you soon. I will call a meeting with the cadres of the division in a while, and I will explain what needs to be explained." , I will ask you to represent me as a teacher. I will take a vacation with the principal, and go back to my hometown for a few days to take care of my old illness." Cheng Nan didn't dare to look Yan Ming directly in the eyes, and he stuttered when he spoke: " Instructor, instructor, me, I am also ordered to pass on a message, I don’t, I don’t mean that.” Yan Ming waved his hand: “I know you didn’t mean that, we are also teachers and students, I know who you are!”

Division meeting room.

Ledgers, documents, and maps piled all over the table.Everyone in the meeting room spoke softly, explaining their work.Only Zhaoshi stood in a military posture in front of the wall, and when someone walked past him, his embarrassed eyes would always stop for a while.Among the instructors, the only one who can make Zhaoshi so embarrassed is Yan Ming.

The documents and keys on the table have all been handed over.Yan Ming shouted: "Major Staff Officer Shen Zhaoshi!"

"arrive"

"Report the semi-annual training plan to the deputy division commander"

"Yes"

Zhaoshi still looked at the wall, and said loudly: "Report to Deputy Teacher Cheng, the teacher's half-year training plan is as follows." Cheng Nan was in a dilemma, like this, he didn't listen, and he didn't listen.Yan Ming's gaze was as calm as water, he looked at Zhaoshi, as if he was saying: "Look at you kid can turn out the palm of my hand!"

The meeting was held in the morning to hand over the daily work of the instructors. Zhaoshi became angry when he heard it, and he refused to hand over, until Yan Ming asked him to stand in front of all the cadres in the conference room with a dark face and stand in a military posture.Everyone knew that Zhaoshi was Yan Ming's favorite student, but he didn't give him any favors in front of everyone, no matter how reluctant he was, he would swallow his breath and complete the handover.

When the meeting was over, Yan Ming didn't look at him, just called him dismissed, and left the conference room.Zhaoshi came out of the meeting room and went straight to the military headquarters to find Chen Xiangfan. When they met, the officer stopped calling, and immediately said: "Brother-in-law, I want to transfer the military department to you as an adjutant." Chen Xiangfan smiled: "Your sister please You became my adjutant, but you didn’t do it, and you reversed your sex today. There are still many ways for Yan Ming. You don’t need to explain, I know why, just sit here and drink your saliva, think about it for 10 minutes, if there is no problem, you can do it in the afternoon Come to go through the formalities." Zhaoshi replied abruptly: "Thank you sir, I don't drink water anymore, I will report in the afternoon."
