Part 5, Chapter 9: Attentive
Part 5 Chapter 9: Attention
Listening to Li Xiaosan quietly finishing what happened last night, a slightly cold expression appeared on the corner of Chen Congyun's mouth, and his right hand unconsciously knocked on the table.
"It's not that simple. Such a big operation, so well-arranged, the personnel, guns, intelligence, and location choices. All of this cannot be covered up by simply catching a rich man. Haha, if you want to cover up, it means the current situation. The real mastermind must be found out." Chen Congyun's face did not change any expression. Li Xiaosan, who had excellent eyesight, just saw Chen Congyun's Adam's apple slid slightly up and down. Seeing this, Li Xiaosan understood in his heart that Chen Congyun was having a fierce ideological struggle. He probably thought about who might be hidden behind the scenes, and was choosing between choices.
"Mr. Zhao said the same thing!" Li Xiaosan remembered the fear hidden in Zhao Xinglong's eyes when he left, and couldn't help but step forward and say this.
Chen Congyun looked at Li Xiaosan, showed a happy expression, and whispered: "Don't say good things to him. I don't understand him yet? He must have noticed some trouble in advance, but there was no real evidence and the other party was difficult to deal with, so he didn't report to me for a long time. This is a question of his personality. I think he may be looking for the answer now. If the answer is consistent with his previous judgment, I'm afraid Zhao Xinglong will feel guilty for a long time. This is a responsible man, but sometimes he seems too cautious."
Li Xiaosan didn't expect Chen Congyun to give such a high evaluation. He then felt relieved. Can anyone do the position of the boss of the Military Information Statistics Bureau? If Chen Congyun had no idea of knowing people, he would have died many times. Looking around at the people around Chen Congyun, which one of them had been with him or followed Chen Congyun before Shen Congyun started his business?
"Sir, if you're fine, I'll go out." Seeing that there should be nothing to do here, Li Xiaosan asked. Chen Congyun reached out and rubbed his face, sobered up and said, "Don't say anything to Zhao Xinglong. If he had no insight or brain, he thought I would take his anger and would not be worthy of staying in this position."
"Love is so deep, and blames it! My subordinates understand."
He stood up slowly from the chair, and kept paying attention to Li Yaoguo inside at the door, walked in gently and asked in a low voice: "Sir, should you clean up first?"
Chen Congyun swept the guards standing at the door and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What's going on in this Li Xiaosan? There's such a big battle at home, why do I feel something is wrong? Go and remove all the guards in the yard. How was it like before and what's going on now? Don't be frightened like a bird, can't you live this life?"
"Sir! This, uncle..." Li Yaoguo hesitated for a moment, and Chen Congyun frowned unhappily: "Execute the order! Let the two ladies come by."
When Ruan Xiaozhen and Zi Yu came in, Chen Congyun was clumsyly wearing a pair of deer leather boots on his feet. The winter in the north is too cold, so it wouldn't be enough to not wear more.
Seeing this, the two women quickly came forward to help put on their shoes. Ruan Xiaozhen was still complaining, "All servants are dead? Why don't they come in to serve them?" This tone of speaking made Chen Congyun feel a little unhappy. Thinking of her origin, he smiled and said, "I didn't call him servants! Haha, it's still my own woman who is comfortable serving him." Chen Congyun said comfortably and stretched, Zi Yu, who was bent down to tidy up her clothes. After hearing this, his hands paused suddenly.
"The master asked us to come, what are you asking?" Zi Yu's voice was slightly nasal. A woman was really a kind of emotional animal.
While the women were waiting to wash, they laughed in a low voice: "I saw that the snow scenery in this garden is good, and I wanted to take advantage of this time to take a walk and take a look. I felt it was boring to go alone, so I invited you."
At this time, I still had the heart to appreciate the snow, which made the two women feel a little surprised. Ruan Xiaozhen was especially surprised. The relationship between Chen Congyun and her originated from a special environment. When it comes to the relationship between men and women, most of the time, lust is connected together, which is a relationship of attachment.
Shen Congyun's performance now makes women feel a romantic emotion. This emotion rarely appears to Chen Congyun, especially at this special moment.
This is an unpredictable man, and Ruan Xiaozhen had already concluded this point when she was sixteen years old.
The sun is a white world. The garden in the severe winter looks a little deserted. The winding paths have been swept out, and the lonely leads to the deep place.
"The winding paths lead to the secluded place!" Looking at the white and solemn world, the next sentence "The flowers and trees in the Zen room are deep" can't be connected. After reading the first sentence, Chen Congyun subconsciously turned his head to look at the woman who was following carefully on the left and right, and couldn't help but smile a little bitterly. In the secluded place just now, Chen Congyun thought of some lustful things, and wanted to take the opportunity to revitalize the atmosphere, but the trembling expressions on the faces of the two made Chen Congyun somewhat disappointed.
"Hehe, Zi Yu, Xiao Zhen, it seems that we still lack understanding." Chen Congyun's thoughts were in return for Ruan Xiaozhen's increasing fear and Zi Yu's slightly surprised gaze.
"Where is this what the master said?" Zi Yu was very knowledgeable and faintly felt Chen Congyun's intention to call them out, but she was just a little uncertain.
Chen Congyun smiled and said nothing, walked to the pavilion high, looking around, the pavilions and towers below were all in sight, and there was a vast white area in the distance.
"I have received the care of the master." Zi Yu smiled faintly, stepped forward and gently held Chen Congyun's arm, and at the same time gave Ruan Xiaozhen a wink. These two people have a special status at home, so they are naturally closer.
Chen Congyun let out a long breath, turned his head and raised his hand and gently stroked Zi Yu's face, saying, "The women in this family are counting your mind, and you also know me the best. I asked you to come out to see the snow scene together. In fact, I hope you don't have too much psychological burden. There are many things that are not avoided because you don't go to see a doctor. What should be come, must be. All of this was destined to happen when I came to this world, but it just depends on how it appeared, and it is essentially the same."
Chen Congyun said that since he traveled to this world and determined his new life goals, he inevitably embarked on an unusual path of life. Zi Yu and Ruan Xiaozhen understood it a bit differently, thinking that Chen Congyun was talking about a fatalism.
Putting aside the deviation in understanding, the warm atmosphere created by Chen Congyun gradually spread out. The two women were moved at the same time, standing with Chen Congyun around and looking firmly at the world in the distance.
Zhao Xinglong hurriedly appeared at the door of the garden with a detailed report and was stopped by the guards. After explaining his purpose, he wandered around the door with some anxiety. This was the first time he was stopped by the guards?
"Li Xiaosan is confused! Is it necessary to be so cautious about everyone? Should we live this life? In the future, Zhao Xinglong will let him go if he asks for a meeting." Chen Congyun, who happened to come down from above, clearly heard the scene at the door, and his mind turned slightly. Before he could see Zhao Xinglong, he said this loudly inside.
Zhao Xinglong at the door could hear it clearly, and an indescribable feeling made him feel hot in an instant, and his breathing became a little rapid at this moment. His face, which had not been asleep all night, turned rosy.
"Military!" Seeing Chen Congyun and his wife come out, Zhao Xinglong rushed forward with a quick step. Chen Congyun raised his hand and smiled, "Hehe, I'm back. Are you eating breakfast?"
Chen Congyun's warm gaze made Zhao Xinglong's heart churn even more violently. His previous uneasiness, guessing, and fear of slander and ridicule instantly swept away. His words were also a little unscrupulous, and he replied unconsciously: "Not yet, I haven't felt Russian until now."
"You student soldiers who followed me to Vietnam to work hard, nine out of ten have stomach problems. You should cherish your body and try to be a little regular in life." Chen Congyun smiled on his face, as if he remembered the past. Zi Yu next to him saw that Zhao Xinglong could not resist it, and stepped forward and smiled cleverly, "Master, don't talk about Lord Zhao, you are not the same. From last night to now, I have drunk a few glasses of water."
Chen Congyun couldn't help but touch his head, laughed and said, "Yes, this is called the upper beam not straight and the lower beam is crooked! Just so happens that I'm hungry, you two go and have some fun, and I'll have a meal with Lord Zhao."
Chen Congyun's deliberate joke did not ease much of the atmosphere. Zhao Xinglong, who was standing opposite, lowered his head but straightened his body. Tears as big as beans couldn't help falling down his cheeks and fell on the pebbles ground, falling into pieces drop by drop, as if the panic and uneasiness in his heart also shattered with the tears.
Chen Congyun could see clearly, so he naturally couldn't continue to tell jokes. He sighed slightly, turned around and took the handkerchief handed by Zi Yu, signaling the two women to leave, then stepped forward and handed the handkerchief and whispered: "You, your mind is useless, and you work hard to do things, but you think too much about everything. When I was poor and empty and had a false reputation, you gave up the flower world of the Central Plains and followed me to the poor and white ghost place in Vietnam to work hard. You said, I don't trust you, who do I trust? Yesterday I spoke a little harshly, but you are my most caring subordinates. If something happens, I won't blame you first. I will ask others for your convincing people. Okay, don't cry, the masters are all too cold!"
Zhao Xinglong took the handkerchief, wiped it randomly, held back his tears and looked up, and choked and said, "Military, my subordinates have found out,..."
Chen Congyun smiled bitterly and raised his hand to interrupt, "Okay, I said that I have something to eat first, you said first, I can't eat anymore. You have something to do, you can't eat it anymore. You should do it boldly, catch what should be caught, kill what should be killed, and kill what should be killed. I will be interested in listening after finishing the matter."
"Yes!" Zhao Xinglong stood at attention and replied loudly.
At this time, Zi Yu walked over gently and shouted from a distance: "Master! You're ready."
Chen Congyun laughed and said, "Let's go, I'm so hungry that I'm screaming."
Zhao Xinglong, who left Shenyuan, was full of murderous aura. Fu Er was a hard bone. Li Xiaosan stabbed his dagger and sweated all over his body without shouting. Zhao Xinglong took four hours to find out that Zi Chou Yin Mao came. Fortunately, the master beside Fu Er was unable to resist, and he didn't even get punished, and he took everything. The matter was roughly equivalent to Zhao Xinglong's previous prediction. After defeating Beijing City, the military was on high alert. Anyone who was a little threatened had asked the Military Bureau to coordinate with the Political Training Department to sweep the assassination guns and other guns used for assassination could only be transported in from outside. Zhao Xinglong grabbed this and checked the master's confession all the way down, and soon found the sensitive area.
"The firearms are likely to be the city that the Russian Embassy helped enter through Japan."
This is the only thing Zhao Xinglong said when he left and related to the case. Chen Congyun had actually thought of it for a long time. Now that Zhao Xinglong has confirmed it, Chen Congyun is not very angry deep in his heart.
The atmosphere in the conference room was quite tense, and all the military and political officials had been waiting for a while. When Chen Congyun Cong walked in under the curtain lifted by Adjutant Chen Cong, he stood up in a flash.
"What are you doing so serious? I'm fine, and I'm still investigating things. It's time for everyone to be nervous when I find out." Chen Congyun's relaxed tone made the entire solemn atmosphere slightly relax.
"This morning, the First Fleet returned successfully." Keze was the first to stand up. Since Chen Congyun did not mention the assassination, he would just talk about business.
"Oh? How is the situation?" Chen Congyun's heart couldn't help but raise it. Compared with the assassination incident, the fleet's record naturally allowed Chen Congyun to pay more attention.
"Mushashi, Nishikyo Maru, Fusang, Yae, Langsu, Yoshino, Akitsusu, and Takachiho were sunk one after another. I didn't let it sink, but more than half of the warships could never fight again without overhaul."
As soon as the news came out, everyone was in an uproar! This was really exciting news. The Musashi, one of the signature warships of the Japanese United Fleet, was sunk, which was undoubtedly a huge victory.
A smile filled everyone's face, and after a whisper of excitement, Chen Congyun finally calmed down with the sound of Chen Congyun's gentle cough.
"We must speed up the work of repairing warships. Can the dock in Weihai be completed with the overhaul now?"
Zhan Tianyou immediately stood up and replied loudly: "No problem. The dock equipment we bought from the United States has been successfully installed and debugged a month ago. Not to mention maintenance, Wusong alone built a cruiser of more than 2,000 tons. The only disadvantage is the technical problem of artillery manufacturing. I have communicated with the German side. They agreed to send a 50-person expert team to help us solve technical problems in the arsenal that started in Xuancheng."
This is undoubtedly another good news. Chen Congyun looked at Zhan Tianyou with satisfaction, and then at Tang Shaoyi. This must be related to this person in charge of diplomacy.
Tang Shaoyi now seems much more steady. When Chen Congyun’s gaze conveyed to him, he just bowed slightly. There was not much change in expression on his face, nor did he mean to speak actively.
"How is the battle in Fujian?" Chen Congyun changed the topic and turned his attention to Changkeze, the General Staff General Staff.
"I just received the telegram in the morning. Clawson and Wang Chao had already met successfully. Liu Kunyi finally did not give up on Fuzhou and Xiamen to fight in the mountains. The two generals in front were to encircle Fuzhou City on three sides after the troops were to surround Fuzhou City on a temporary basis without fighting. After all, there were tens of thousands of troops in the city, and if they fought for force, they would suffer too much casualties. They mean to continue to bombard the heavy artillery for half a month and engage in psychological warfare first. The situation in Xiamen is better. With the rebellion of the Fuzhou Navy, the entire Xiamen is now an isolated island. Deng Shichang's idea is that as long as the old-fashioned warship of the Fuzhou Navy is left, the problem can be solved after surrounding it for half a year."
After Keze finished speaking, Chen Congyun smiled and said, "Don't just talk about their ideas. The General Staff must quickly draw up an opinion. Although it will be unacceptable to the outside king's order, it must be emphasized that the General Staff's central role in coordinating the overall situation. The specific plan should be told at the internal meetings of various departments. I will go and listen at that time! I will guarantee not to direct blindly!" Chen Congyun's words caused another laughter in the venue. Chen Congyun does not have the habit of being an outsider to manage his experts. Although he cares about everything, he always only cares about one general direction, never interferes in the specific situation, and there are few rules and regulations.
After everyone laughed, Chen Congyun stood up and said, "Okay, today's temporary contact and notification meeting is here. I will wait in the office if there is anything to say in each department. "
Chapter completed!
