    When Li Guoyao arrived at the official residence of the envoy, it was already 12:30 noon, more than an hour later than expected.

    Seeing Li Guoyao standing in front of him safe and sound, Jiang was slightly relieved. If something happened to Li Guoyao in Wuhan, the consequences would be disastrous.

    Firstly, Li Guoyao and the entire 61st Army have become a banner for the current war of resistance. Now that the 61st Army is disabled, if Li Guoyao is also assassinated, then this banner will really fall. This will be a big blow to the front line.  The blow to the morale of tens of millions of soldiers was fatal.

    Secondly, there have been rumors that the government and the Military Commission have prejudices against Li Guoyao, who was born in the Northeastern Army. Once something happens to Li Guoyao in Wuhan, I am sure someone will think wrong, and the Japanese will not miss this opportunity to discredit the national army.

    Now that Li Guoyao is fine, he has killed the assassin, and the enemy's back-up plan can no longer be carried out, which is a relatively good result.

    "I already know everything. Are you not injured?" Lao Jiang said lightly.

    Li Guoyao nodded and said: "Returning to the committee, there was no injury. It's a pity that the assassin was killed. Otherwise, we might get some clues!"

    "No, those who come out to be assassins are all desperadoes. Even if they are captured alive, it is impossible to ask anything!" Lao Jiang said.

    "yes!"

    "Leave this matter to Director Yunong. The Party Congress will give you an explanation!" Lao Jiang said again.

    Li Guoyao hurriedly said: "I am humble and waiting for my appointment!"

    "You haven't eaten yet?"

    "not yet!"

    ¡°Then let¡¯s get together!¡±

    After speaking, Lao Jiang stood up directly and then took the lead out of the study.

    In the small restaurant outside, servants had already prepared meals for the two of them, but Li Guoyao was a little surprised when he saw the food on the table.

    It's not too rich, but too simple. There are only two stir-fried dishes and a plate of pickles on the small round table. The stir-fried dishes are all vegetarian, and the pickles are also the most common pickles. The only thing that stands out is  Those two bowls of rice, you can tell at a glance that they are the special fragrant rice.

    Li Guoyao was a little surprised to see this man of the hour eating so casually and simply. You must know that even a random official in Wuhan would not have a simpler lunch than this.

    ????????????????????? And once you get to the provincial government officials and high-ranking generals, instead of delicacies such as chicken, duck, and fish, you can see that the two vegetarian dishes on the table are simple.

    Li Guoyao has participated in many banquets organized by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. At that time, there were more than a dozen dishes, white wine and foreign wine were freely drank, and there were all kinds of socialites to accompany them. Even when the country was in prosperity, he did not show off at all.

    However, Li Guoyao could not imagine that as a once-all-powerful heroic figure, Chairman Chiang's life would be so dull, which is surprising.

    This also reminded Li Guoyao of the rumors about Chairman Chiang Kai-shek¡¯s three non-touches. It is said that Chairman Chiang was very self-disciplined throughout his life and there were three things he would never touch.

    The first thing not to touch is cigarettes. Everyone must know that smoking is harmful to health, but there are still some people who are keen on it and even ignore their own health. However, the most important thing in Chiang Kai-shek's life is his own health, so he has always  He had never had the habit of smoking, but the First Lady had such a habit. Chiang had always tried to persuade her, and finally helped the First Lady quit this habit.

    The second thing not to touch is wine. Chairman Chiang knows how to drink, but he is not greedy, let alone addicted.

    A small amount of drinking is harmless to health, but excessive drinking can affect people's health. Of course, more importantly, alcohol can paralyze people's nerves and make people unresponsive. Chiang Kai-shek is busy with affairs and must keep his brain awake at all times, so  A teetotaler.

    The last thing he did not touch was gambling. Gambling was harmful to himself, his family and society, so he would never do it in his life.

    Moreover, Chairman Chiang still had the habit of drinking only boiled water. Every day, the guards had to boil the water before Chiang got up so that the temperature would be just around 30 degrees when Chiang drank it in the morning. At the same time, they had to prepare another cup of boiled water with a slightly higher temperature.  On one side, Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek would drink the cold drink first, then the hot drink.

    And Jiang drank water at a certain time and frequency, so the guards had to change his water every once in a while.

    It is said that this habit was influenced by Zhang Jingjiang, a wealthy man in Shanghai, and was called hydrotherapy detoxification. Later, the First Lady also said that boiled water is good for people, and Chairman Chiang persisted.

    Chairman Chiang is a bit old-fashioned in life, so he basically eats and sleeps silently during meals. The two of them had almost no communication during the meal.

    After the meal, Chairman Chiang said to Li Guoyao: "Seriously, let's go and take a walk with me in the garden!"

    "yes!"

    The two of them came to the small garden one after another. Looking at the slightly withered grass and trees, Lao Jiang sighed and said: "Seriously, I already know your casualties. The great sacrifice and high achievements are truly unparalleled in the national army."  First, even Song Xilian¡¯s troops can¡¯t compare with him, thank you for your hard work!¡±

    The Military Commission has fully understood the combat process of the 61st Army in the past two months. Part of it was reported to the Military Commission by the 61st Army, and some of it was collected by the Military Command Bureau and the Military Commission from the front line. It is very detailed.  .

    ¡°When it was learned that the 61st Army had grown from 30,000 people at the time of the expedition to 3,000 people when it returned to Wuhan, not only Chiang Kai-shek himself, but even Minister He and others who had a gap with Li Guoyao fell silent.

    Moreover, the combat effectiveness of Li Guoyao's unit was recognized by everyone. It was able to fight bloody battles with multiple Japanese forces in turn with just one army. First, there was the Japanese Navy, then the Botian Detachment, and then the 106th Division and the 27th Infantry Division.  After the division was over, they attacked hundreds of troops in Lu'an and fought a bloody battle with the 13th Division. They also did not forget to sneak attack Huang'an and wiped out a regiment of the 16th Division.

    Li Guoyao's troops were not only courageous, but also capable of winning battles. No matter how strong the enemy they faced, this army never gave in.

    So no matter how heavy the casualties this unit suffered, it was still enough to be considered a truly elite division.  And Li Guoyao can be listed among the famous generals in the world just based on these few battles.

    "Commissioner, the national crisis is at hand, and our soldiers should stand up and fight, even if they are wrapped in horse leather, it is just to pledge their lives to the country. Although our troops suffered heavy casualties, not one out of ten, but I believe that our brothers died well, they all died  Hero!" Li Guoyao said with an upright face.

    "What a worthy death. If the more than two million troops of the party and state had such courage as yours, why were they forced here by the Japanese invaders?"

    Thinking of the current crisis in Wuhan, Lao Jiang couldn't help but frown.

    Although Li Guoyao's troops fought well in the front, and Xue Yue's First Corps also completely annihilated the Matsuura Division on the Nanxun line, they still could not let the little devil break his muscles and bones.

    At present, the Second Corps was defeated by the Japanese army on the Ruichang front line, while Hu Zongnan's army was defeated in a battle in Xinyang. The four-pronged Japanese army is approaching Wuhan. If this continues, the Japanese army will be able to reach the gates of Wuhan in at most half a month.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
