Age of Rebirth

Tang Qiuli's sneaky appearance made Mei Ting angry and funny. She was embraced by her husband, and the long-lost and familiar man's breath instantly surrounded her. With big eyes, she gave him a coquettish white look, and said slyly, "What? Are you guilty?"

Tang Qiuli was said to be the center of the matter, but he refused to admit defeat. While hugging his wife tightly, he said, "Why am I guilty? It's because I'm worried that my father will ask about the war on the front line. If the time comes, I won't be able to answer correctly. You also know that the old man His temper, big Chinese New Year, don't you want to make the old man angry!"

Mei Ting leaned on her husband's generous shoulders, exhaled like blue, and said in a leisurely voice, as if coming from afar, "Fool, it's not what you think, Xiaoxue called home and told her father about Xinlan , my father is really an amazing old man, open-minded, open-minded, and reasonable. He didn't blame you, and asked Xiaoxue and me to invite Xinlan to my house for a meal. manner."

Tang Qiuli examined his wife's big black and white eyes, and asked incredulously, "Really? Sister Ting, you didn't coax me?"

Mei Ting got angry and pinched him hard. Tang Qiuli grinned pretendingly in pain, and took the opportunity to grope Mei Ting's plump body with both hands. The two separated hastily.

Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan came out after packing up the presents, just in time to see this charming scene, Mei Xue teased: "Master, I'm busy enough, Xinlan and I have just been bullied by you, and we took the opportunity to bully my sister again!"

Liu Xinlan peeked at Tang Qiuli, probably recalling the commotion in the bedroom in the morning, her fair face was flushed with blush.It looks more and more charming.

Sure enough, as Mei Ting said, Mr. Mei is an enlightened old man. He was very happy that Liu Xinlan came to visit. Mrs. Mei looked very well-educated when she saw Liu Xinlan, who was charming and charming, and she couldn't help but fell in love with her. Stop talking, between eyebrows and eyes.Full of kind smiles.

The old lady has probably heard about her uncle's past in the Northeast, and knows that Tang Qiuli is not a promiscuous person. Besides, what is the status of my uncle now.If you want to find them, eight out of ten will marry and go home.When Mei Ting was returning to her mother-in-law's house.I explained it patiently to the old lady again, and the old lady wiped away her tears, she became sympathetic, and the little discomfort in her heart had already flown to the sky, and she asked Liu Xinlan to come home for dinner.It was the old lady's idea.

Dinner is at Meifu, and the old lady cooks the dishes herself, making a table of authentic Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes, but.Compared with the stewed pork and sauerkraut that he ate at his parents' house yesterday, Tang Qiuli obviously didn't have such a good appetite, so his food was much more elegant.

After Mr. Mei and Tang Qiuli had drank a few glasses of wine, Mrs. Mei suddenly said: "I also heard Xue Er said about Xinlan's life experience. She lost her parents since she was a child. She is lonely. Xinlan, if you don't dislike her, Treat this as your own home, I have two daughters, and it would be even better if I had one more!"

Liu Xinlan stood up, picked up a full glass of wine, her eyes were red, and she choked up and said: "Two old people, Xinlan lost her parents since she was a child, and relatives adopted me. The love of my parents is only left in the vague memory. Today, Xinlan is content with the feeling of being at home! I respect the two elders with this glass of wine, and I will honor your elders just like the two elder sisters!"

After finishing speaking, she raised her head and drank the full glass of wine. Liu Xinlan's face flushed red with choking, and she coughed violently, which made Mrs. Mei feel distressed, and kept patting her on the back. Blamingly said to Mei Xue: "Xue'er, you and Xinlan have been together the longest, you know she can't drink, and you don't know how to dissuade her, it seems that Xinlan is choking!"

Then, he pointed at Tang Qiuli again, "Qiu'er, you too, are careless just like Xiaoxue! Xinlan, put it down, let's stop drinking!"

Tang Qiuli and Mei Xue looked at each other in astonishment, feeling as if they were shot while lying down, Mei Ting smoothed things over with a smile, "Mom, I think Xiaoxue won't be favored as soon as Xinlan comes!" There was a burst of laughter.

After dinner, Mr. Mei ordered the servants to come: "Make two cups of tea and send them to my study. Use the box of tea leaves I kept last year!"

Then, she said to Tang Qiuli: "Qiu'er, let's talk in the study, let your mother and the others stay with Xinlan, we have something to say!"

Liu Xinlan became worried, worried that the old man of the Mei family would be embarrassed to reprimand Tang Qiuli in front of her at the dinner table, so she called to the study to talk alone.

Mrs. Mei understood the habits of the two, and said to Liu Xinlan: "Xinlan, don't worry about them. Once they enter the study, they will keep talking about wars and state affairs. They don't understand, and they keep it mysterious." , let's chatter!"

Walking into Mr. Mei's study room, which was grand and simple, the servant left after serving tea. The old man said, "Qiu'er, I saw in the newspaper that you had a massacre in Outer Mongolia. There are different opinions. There is blood between the lines, I don't believe it, tell me, what's going on?"

"However, I think that if blood flows into rivers and tens of thousands of heads fall to the ground, even if they should all be killed, they should act cautiously. God has the virtue of good life. Killing too many sins is against the harmony of heaven. Of course, this is my personal opinion." Even if you have a little opinion, you have broken into a world and have your own considerations! I just want to know the truth of the matter!"

After finishing speaking, with deep eyes, he looked at calmly, this son-in-law who holds millions of soldiers in his hands, can influence the political situation of the Republic of China, and even affect the world structure.

Tang Qiuli took a sip of tea, looked directly at his father-in-law with the same calm eyes, and told everything that happened in Outer Mongolia in a calm tone.

Mr. Mei half-closed his eyes, tapping the coffee table rhythmically with his fingers. When Tang Qiuli was narrating, he didn't interject a word, nor could he see any inner emotional fluctuations on his face, only his half-grey eyebrows fluttered from time to time , showing that the heart of the old man is never peaceful.

After Tang Qiuli finished speaking, the old man didn't speak. For a while, the study was quiet.

After a long time, Mr. Mei sighed, and said: "It was a last resort. It was an extraordinary method. It cut the mess quickly. It can be called decisive action. It stopped the killing with killing and eradicated the future troubles. The people of Mongolia, avoid the flames of war, the so-called long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, eradicate all separatist forces, do not hesitate to kill the wilderness, not afraid of future generations, the history of the pen is like a knife, leaving infamy, a man should do something and do something wrong Because, Qiu’er, you did the right thing!”

Tang Qiuli didn't think that he had done anything wrong in the matter of killing people in Outer Mongolia. However, he felt comfortable and relaxed to be recognized by his father-in-law, a wise old man whom he respected.

Mr. Mei's face turned serious, and he continued, "Qiu'er, according to what you said, the troops of the Independent Division are now distributed in the Indo-China Peninsula, Outer Mongolia, and even the Far East, which means that you plan to fight two major battles at the same time. The scale of the battle, the target of the battle is Japan's heavy military group in the Southwest Pacific, and the Japanese Kwantung Army occupying the northeast of our country. After this battle is over, there will be no war in Asia!"

"The way to use soldiers is dangerous and dangerous. If you are a little careless, you will lose everything! I am an old man, otherwise, I will definitely go out with the army and counsel you on military affairs under your account. Unfortunately, I am powerless. As a father, I am a little worried. , You fought two large-scale battles with the Soviet army in Outer Mongolia. Although both ended in great victories, you have forged a grudge with the Soviets. Throughout history, Soviet Russia and Japan's ambition to plot our territory is almost identical."

"In the late Qing Dynasty, Japan and Russia fought in the Northeast, in order to compete for the right to occupy the Northeast. The two wolves fought, and the victims were our citizens. You resolutely defeated the Soviets' attempts in Outer Mongolia, and you did it very correctly. However, you have to face two powerful opponents at the same time, and they are two countries with strong military strength, regardless of doctrine, but compared with the Japanese, the appetite of the Soviets is still not so greedy."

"What the Soviets plotted was Outer Mongolia and the Northeast. What the Japanese coveted was our entire Chinese nation. There is a distinction between primary and secondary. Therefore, I will give you a suggestion for my father. Two fists should be hit on one target. body, so as not to distract energy, to put it simply, in two sentences, 'intimidate the Soviet Union in the north, attack Japan in the east'!

Tang Qiuli was shocked. He admired this wise and insightful old man to an undeniable degree. The strategic situation he has created is just like what the old man said. Even Liu Tiehan and Brother Qiusheng don't know much about it. , and the old man can put forward the most practical strategic suggestions based on his own words. Only the dean of Dingbian Military Academy and old general Jiang Baili mentioned similar suggestions in the secret telegram to him.

Tang Qiuli admired the old man's wisdom and war vision, but neither his father-in-law nor the old general Jiang Baili had his own historical accumulation from later generations. He wanted to put on a stalemate with Stalin, so he endured it. Sun Zhenbang, Zhao Yuhe, Yang Ketian, and Liu Tiehan were not ordered to stop near Lake Baikal, Minusinsk, Chita and other places until the soldiers entered the west of the Ural Mountains and took all the eastern territories occupied by the Soviets. not before.

The purpose is not to provoke Stalin too much, and wait for Hitler to free up his hand to launch a war against the Soviet Union. At that time, the international situation will change. When the Japanese Kwantung Army started.

However, there were some deviations in the facts. The Soviet Union suffered a disastrous defeat in the two wars in Outer Mongolia. Stalin, who was stimulated, made a desperate move and transferred more than half of the European troops to the East, in order to kill his military strength in Outer Mongolia and the Far East.

Think about it, more than 400 million Soviet soldiers, flooding the Ural Mountains like a tide, the situation is terrible enough!
