On January 1, 1943, the first day of the new year, Meng Shaoyuan embarked on a journey to the United States.
This time, all his family members, including Cai Xuefei, traveled to the United States with him.
Accompanying him were a group of guards carefully selected by Li Zhifeng.
Qiu Ruichang also went with him.
He also unexpectedly brought Lao Bacon with him.
This decision seems strange to others.
Lao Barou has lived in Chongqing for most of his life. When he leaves Chongqing, in his own words, he has a black eye.
He doesn't understand foreign languages.
His greatest role beside Meng Shaoyuan is that of a local snake.
Just ask him what happened in any corner of Chongqing, and it will definitely work.
But leaving Chongqing?
He is almost a useless person.
Wu Jingyi also raised this question.
This is what Meng Shaoyuan asked Wu Jingyi:
"Have you ever seen fleas? Is there any difference between Chinese fleas and foreign fleas?"
How could Wu Jingyi have thought that Master Meng would ask such a question?
Just when she looked confused, Meng Shaoyuan said again:
“The flea is a very tenacious creature. It can jump from Chinese people to foreigners and never adapt to the local environment.
Foreigners have traveled thousands of miles to bring Chinese fleas to foreign countries, but the fleas will still bite them and suck their blood, and they will not be polite at all.
Old bacon doesn't understand foreign languages, but he knows how to survive. Not only must he survive, but he must also make himself fat and white. "
Wu Jingyi seemed to understand somewhat.
But she was a little worried.
How come after hearing what Master Meng said, he went to the United States and concluded that he would cause trouble?
Otherwise, what would he be doing with Lao Bacon around?
"I'll leave the house to you."
This is what Meng Shaoyuan is most concerned about: "You and Wang Nanxing, support the operations department. The situation in Chongqing is too complicated. The bastard Iksan Torataro is still on the run. I don't know what trouble he will cause."
If I'm here, he'll be afraid of me; if I'm not there, I'm worried about him jumping up and down. This man is very cunning, and you may not be his match. I discussed it with Mr. Dai and created the illusion that I was still in Chongqing. "
"Isn't it difficult?" Wu Jingyi frowned: "Many people know that you went to the United States. It may be difficult to keep everyone secret and not leak any information."
"I know, but I know how to deal with this bastard!" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "What I want to buy is time. As long as he doesn't dare to move for a while, my goal will be achieved.
I will leave you three tips bags. You just need to open the three tips bags in order of time. "
Wu Jingyi asked a very serious question: "Meng Shaoyuan, in addition to watching Jin Ping Mei, have you also watched too much Three Kingdoms?"
Well.
Do you always speak so mercilessly?
…
At 8 a.m. on January 1, 1943, several cars drove out of the Military Command Bureau headquarters one after another.
Sitting in the car was Meng Shaoyuan, director of the Operations Division of the Military Command Bureau, who was about to leave for the United States, and his entourage.
The airport is heavily guarded.
It’s almost five steps and one post.
Major Thomson, the US docking representative, arrived at the airport early.
He and Meng Shaoyuan had already had detailed consultations on the previous trip to the United States.
He liked this young man who seemed a little undisciplined.
Being able to speak fluent American English makes communication with each other seamless.
And his reaction is very fast.
Often after you say one sentence, he will understand what you mean.
This makes communication with each other much easier.
"Meng!"
"Thomson!"
Meng Shaoyuan shook hands with Thomson.
Before he could say anything, he saw several trucks driving into the airport.
As soon as it stopped, boxes of supplies were unloaded from the plane and moved onto the plane.
"What's this?"
Thomson was visibly curious.
"That, supplies, supplies."
Meng Shaoyuan was a little bit cover-up and a little embarrassed.
These are supplies that Madam will transport before her visit to the United States.
There are cosmetics, fur coats, special pillows and quilts, etc.
Of course Meng Shaoyuan knew what it was, but he had no way to say it.
"That is also supplies?"
Thomson asked, pointing to the big thing that several soldiers were struggling to lift from the truck.
That's a piano!
Meng Shaoyuan was also dumbfounded.
Yes, I have heard that my wife visited the United States and brought a piano with her, but it flew into the air and was thrown away by an American pilot because it was overloaded.
But he actually encountered it?
Meng Shaoyuan has always been a braggart without blinking, but this time, how should he make it up?
He coughed a few times: "Major Thomson, you know what I do."
"Yes, of course I do."
"This, this is our secret weapon!"
"Piano? Secret weapon?" Major Thomson was confused: "Can shells be fired from it?"
"This, we pass the information through the piano."
Master Meng's mouth was dry.
Major Thomson is a serious and somewhat stubborn person. He must understand what he doesn't understand: "So, please tell me, there are pianos in the United States, and I noticed that the piano is American, why does it have to travel thousands of miles?" What about shipping all the way from China to the United States?”
Young Master Meng actually couldn't make up any more.
He suddenly said with a straight face: "Li Zhifeng!"
"arrive!"
"You bastard, why are you still hanging around here?"
"ah?"
Li Zhifeng was baffled.
What are you waiting for? Didn't you ask me to stay with you to protect your safety?
"This is unreasonable, this is unreasonable." Meng Shaoyuan said angrily: "Let me check the plane. It's safe. Is it safe? Do you understand?"
Master Meng ran away.
That's a grievance for Li Zhifeng.
Check the plane? Do you understand?
Major Thomson took out a notebook and wrote it down.
Why can the piano be a secret weapon?
Well, it was a long way to fly to the United States anyway, so I had to ask Meng for clarification.
"Sir."
Old bacon ran over.
He was wearing a brand-new Chinese tunic suit, shiny leather shoes, and his hair and beard were neatly trimmed. He was completely different from the sloppy old bacon he used to be.
"What's up?"
"Director Dai is here." Old Bacon said in a low voice.
"knew."
Meng Shaoyuan quickly walked to a car that had just driven into the airport, opened the door and got in.
Dai Li was in the car: "Is everything okay?"
"Everything is fine, Mr. Dai."
"I won't say much else. You are smart, quick to respond, and know how to deal with emergencies. You are the vanguard. You must do everything you need to do, without making any mistakes."
"Don't worry, Mr. Dai, I know what to do and what to do."
"I'm a little worried about you because of your temper." Dai Li smiled bitterly: "Remember my words, you represent the country."
"I understand, Mr. Dai."
"Okay, that's it, take care along the way."
"Mr. Dai, please take care of yourself too!"
