    The North Whale 60 fleet sailed eastward from the Western Pacific. Chen Jiayong and Gong Yi summoned Wang Hongde and He Qishi and said to them: "Hongde, Qishi, our last stop is ahead - Oahu. The ships of this trip  There are no less than 150 ships and no less than 3,000 people in each department. It can be regarded as a huge takeover and inspection team. You must manage your life and safety with all your heart." Gong Yi on the side said: "Let me give you a break first. When we arrive at Wahu  Pearl Harbor, I'm afraid you two will have to go ashore." He Qishi quickly asked why?  Gong Yi said: "Generals Luo and Liu are only temporarily taking over the Hawaiian Islands. They have more important tasks. But you have to be stationed there for a long time. There is a need for talents who understand both management and military affairs and are familiar with the ocean. You guys  He is the most suitable candidate." Wang and He only accepted the order.

    The island of Oahu in the center of the Pacific Ocean is in sight.  Luo Gang came up with three destroyers.

    Oahu (oahu) is also translated as Oahu Island.  It is a volcanic island in Hawaii.  With coordinates of 21¡ã26¡ä158¡ã00¡ä and an area of ??1,574 square kilometers, it is the third largest island in the Hawaiian Islands and the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of the islands.  There are two mountain ranges running southeast-northwest on the island, with towering peaks, the highest point reaching 1228 meters.  December and January are the coldest months, with average winter afternoon temperatures around 23 degrees Celsius.  The hottest months are August and September with temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius.  The average temperature is between 23 degrees Celsius and 30 degrees Celsius.  Due to the influence of the dominant trade winds, rainfall is mainly concentrated in the north and northeast toward the coast, while the south and southeast, including Honolulu and Waikiki, are relatively dry.  80% of the population of the archipelago is concentrated here, ranking first.  The island has the state capital Honolulu (also known as Honolulu) and Pearl Harbor (Pearl Harbor).

General civilian ships and foreign ships are not allowed to enter without special permission.

    Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the Northern Whale Fleet 60 entered Pearl Harbor.  Chen Jiayong and his party went ashore and took a bus to Honolulu.  Song Mingling was extremely happy. She said: "Finally, I have been waiting for you. Everyone, please have a good rest tonight." She ordered Liu Yongming to settle everyone down.  She wanted to report to Chairman Chen alone, so she picked up Chen Jiayong.

    Soong Ming Ling lived in a luxurious villa deep in the city trees. She always had two Chinese and Western cooks, Wei Shiji and Li Yuan, and a large number of Korean and Arab maids around her. Her life was still so luxurious.  .  Chen Jiayong said with a smile: "Little eldest sister, you are really corrupt everywhere!" Ming said: "That's not the case this time. This villa was rented for me by the Secretariat of the World Security Council with membership fees. It did not cost our country  Money. Who told me to be the executive chairman of the Security Council?" Chen Jiayong said: "Then feel free, I came to eat braised pork belly and cross-bridge rice noodles." M-ling said: "Yes, yes, it's all for you.  It's ready, and there's spicy soup. I'll drink Maotai with you." A large table of Xi'an-style Chinese food was served, as well as some Western dishes.  Chen Jiayong said happily: "Dear me, little eldest sister, you really combine the earth and the foreign. It smells so good! Call Li Yu'an and Wei Shiji, let's have dinner together." The younger brother said: "Brother, you really don't know how to do it.  Gentleman, there is a distinction between high and low, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?" Chen Jiayong's eyes bulged and he said: "Sister, I'm a bandit now, and all the people in the village are brothers, do you want me to disappoint you!" Ming quickly shouted.  Two people came to dine with me.

    Chen Jiayong asked about the situation at Li Yuan's family, and Li Yuan said: "The life at home is getting better and better. The eldest son is farming at home, the second son is driving and transporting, and the third son has gone to a land called Djibouti to 'pioneering'  , the letter said that after taking out a loan to engage in mechanized farming, he became the owner of the manor, and even married two aunts in the local area; the county magistrate of Songwang was also promoted and became the deputy director of the agricultural committee there."  Chen Jiayong was very happy to hear this, and asked again: "Where is your precious daughter?" Li Yu'an smiled and narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and said: "My little girl has graduated from college and is on business in the county. She and Guyu are getting close.  "Chen Jiayong laughed and said, "Wow! I'm afraid I'm the matchmaker." Li Yu'an said, "Yes, yes, when Gu Yu was the village head of our Songjiazhuang for half a year, didn't he still live in my house?  That's when I got along." Chen Jiayong asked: "Are you satisfied with your future son-in-law?" Li Yu'an said: "Satisfied, satisfied, he is very good at taking care of the village's affairs, he is fair and diligent, and he has a sweet mouth.  He is also good at martial arts, so I am not worried about Xiao Nizi marrying him." Chen Jiayong said: "That's good. Gu Yu is no longer my second lieutenant and deputy squad leader of the internal service.He was promoted to lieutenant colonel and is now the deputy leader of the external security team of the headquarters field team.  Do you want your daughter to join the army or stay in your hometown?  Li Yu'an said: "Hey, didn't Xiao Nizi go to the county town for business? I still want her to stay in her hometown."  "Chen Jiayong said: "She was admitted as a county civil servant and became a cadre.  That¡¯s fine, Gu Yu has been running around with me for these years, and it¡¯s time to have a stable home.  Otherwise, let Gu Yu change his career and become the county magistrate of your Hu County.  We will marry them after we return to Xi'an.  "Li Yuan was so surprised that he nodded.

    Chen Jiayong said to Wei Shiji again: "Brother, although I don't like Western food, Vice Chairman Song likes to eat the Western food you make. You have made great contributions in these years." Wei Shiji said excitedly: "I'm just a guy.  It is common for chefs to meet nobles and good people! I have not yet married a wife at the age of 50. It was Vice Chairman Song who chose a beautiful and virtuous Korean wife for me. She is Han Meilian, the manager of the Song Dynasty. We already have  I have a lovely daughter. I am so happy and willing to cook Western food for Vice Chairman Song for the rest of my life." Chen Jiayong toasted Whiskey and a large glass of Maotai. Whiskey drank it in one gulp without hesitation, and then slid down the orange.  Chen Jiayong said: "Yes, he is a real man, I like him!"

    In M's luxurious and fragrant bedroom, she couldn't wait to say: "My bandit brother, come and punish me!" Chen Jiayong pinched her a few times, picked her up and threw her on the big copper bed, saying: "You  Bandit, you have made a great contribution, so I will not punish you for now, but reward you!" The two of them were really affectionate.  M Ling said: "Little brother, when you arrive in Hawaii, I will rush back to Xi'an." Chen Jiayong said: "Sister, we finally meet here together, do you want to leave?" M Ling said  : "I miss my children." Chen Jiayong said, "It's really hard for you. You have to go on a business trip after your confinement. But who told you to control Qiujier and Du Lumen. I miss my children too.  , let¡¯s hurry up and get things done here and go back together.¡± M-year-old cried bitterly and said: ¡°Little brother, from the beginning of our acquaintance and love, I have told you: I am just a little woman.  , as long as someone loves me and loves me, that's fine. But then I was always running around outside, pretending to be a strong woman, and dealing with barbarians was really tiring." Chen Jiayong said in her ear: "Little eldest sister, in the bedroom, you  You will always be my little woman. Outside, you are a well-deserved strong woman! Your contribution to China cannot be calculated in terms of money. Therefore, God forgives your luxury and rewards you with a pair of children." m age  He turned his cry into a smile and said: "You are the only one who knows how to coax people, and your children are not yours." Chen Jiayong nodded happily, then sighed and said: "Our eldest girl Qi'er is really miserable, but why is my son-in-law so miserable?"  " M-ling blocked his mouth and said, "Stop talking, I already know it, and I feel sour in my heart. Okay, I'll listen to your arrangement, and I'll go back with you after I finish my work."

    The next day, in the city government building, Vice Chairman M-year-old presided over a briefing. Sun Ke, China¡¯s permanent representative to the World Security Council and chief secretary-general of the World Security Council Secretariat, reported on the specific process of China¡¯s hosting of the negotiations between several countries and the resolutions and agreements reached.  wait.

    Chen Jiayong commented: "We have used both military and diplomatic measures to host negotiations between several countries and parties, and actively contributed to peace in the Asia-Pacific region. Of course, we do not rule out obtaining our due benefits, and have basically achieved our goals in the Pacific region.  Phased strategic goals. This has established China's leading position in the Pacific region. Vice Chairman M Ling also creatively created the World Joint Council, and has played a huge role in promoting the maintenance of world peace and made great contributions.  Contribution. All of you here are indispensable for the achievement of the above results!"

    Luo Gang reported on the military deployment of the Hawaiian Islands: the Guangzhou aircraft carrier fleet is stationed at Pearl Harbor; the Shanghai aircraft carrier fleet is stationed at Midway Island; and the Nanjing aircraft carrier fleet is responsible for maritime patrols.  The three fleets rotate cruises every six months.  Chen Jiayong said: "Maintaining peace in the Pacific region, maritime military strength is an important support. It cannot be weakened and must be further strengthened. The United States across the ocean is not only our strong opponent, but also our economic partner to a certain extent; the new Japanese country  We have recently had some respite and rest. We must always grasp the balancing power of several countries and parties and continue to consolidate security and defense in the Pacific region."

    Liu Yongming reported on the management of the Hawaiian Islands: There were originally about 600,000 Americans on the islands. In recent years, most of them have been evacuated to the mainland and the South Pacific islands due to wars.  At present, more than 100,000 people have moved to China, and various productions are resuming.  The rest are military garrison personnel.  Chen Jiayong said: "Immigration needs to be strengthened. Oahu was first occupied by the United States, then occupied by the Japanese, then re-occupied by the United States, then occupied by the Japanese, and now it is occupied by me again. It can be said that there are several in and out.  This is when the decision was made. The name of the city of Honolulu is very difficult to pronounce, so why not change its name to Zhongzheng City." M Ling and others agreed very much.

    The meeting decided to establish the Hawaiian Administrative Region, which will govern the Hawaiian Islands, Midway Islands and Marshall Islands.  Major General He Kaishi was promoted to Governor of the Hawaii Administrative Region;Li Yingzi was promoted to mayor of Zhongzheng City; the administrative district quickly staffed the area and started work from now on.  Major General Wang Hongde was promoted to Lieutenant General Commander of the Hawaii Garrison; Senior Colonel Wei Xiaobao was promoted to Major General Security Commander of the Islands; Senior Colonel Mu Nanguo was promoted to Rear Admiral Captain of the North Whale 60 ship; Senior Colonel Ying Xiaotian, deputy captain of the Donghai aircraft carrier, was promoted to the Jixiang aircraft carrier of the field fleet directly under the Central Military Commission Headquarters  Rear Admiral Captain.  Wang Zhensheng was promoted to secretary to the senior colonel of the headquarters field service team; Dao Jinfeng was promoted to captain of the fleet and logistics team leader.

    Chen Jiayong paid for Li Yuan to prepare a table of delicious food.  He called over Gu Yu, and there were only him, Li Yuan, and M Ling at the table, and Gu Yu felt awkward.  Chen Jiayong said to Guyu: "Gu Yu, you have been with me for a long time. I have decided to transfer you. When army cadres transfer to local areas, they are usually promoted one level. You will be a colonel. You are in Hu County, Shaanxi Province, in the mainland.  Go and be a county magistrate." Gu Yu said: "Chairman, I did a good job in the army, why do I want to change jobs? Did I make some mistake?" Chen Jiayong said with a smile: "Damn it, is changing jobs a crime?  Is that wrong? As a soldier with an iron-clad camp, it¡¯s time for you to create your own world and have a home of your own. Why do you want to change your career? Just ask your future father-in-law." Li Yu'an said happily.  Dazzled, she kept saying: "Gu Yu, why don't you go to our hometown to be the county magistrate? The chief is doing it for your own good. Nizi is looking forward to your return every day, and our hometown also needs someone to guard it.  ." Guyu pondered for a while, lowered his head, and said to Chen Jiayong: "Chief, can I call you uncle?" Chen Jiayong said happily: "I have always treated you as my son, so you can accept me as your godfather.  Come on." Gu Yu shouted immediately.  Chen Jiayong was so happy that he took off the small golden pistol from his waist.  M Ling said at the side: "Gu Yu is going to be a local official, why are you giving him a gun? Gu Yu, my aunt will give you three gifts, also on behalf of your godfather: The first is to connect Hu County and Zhongzheng City  As a sister city, Huxian County will develop overseas; secondly, I have prepared four seasons¡¯ dowry for Nizi, a total of 5 large suitcases; thirdly, a check of 100,000 Asian dollars, I wish you to build a happy family.  "

    On the North Whale No. 60, Hanako hosted the banquet. Mu Renzhi, who came to Hawaii to inspect the catering market, was extremely happy that his son had been promoted and cooked many delicious dishes himself.  Fleet officers of captain level and above bid farewell to Captain Wang Hongde, Rear Admiral He Qishi, and Colonel Li Yingzi for leaving the ship and were promoted to high-ranking officers; they also bid farewell to Gu Yu's change of career.  Welcome Mu Nanguo to be promoted to captain.  Hawaii military and civilian officials were also invited to participate.  More than 150 people gathered together, it was so lively.  Chen Jiayong drank a lot of wine.  He said to Wang Hongde and He Qishi: "Originally, you were working in the field team of the headquarters, but I released you again, and people were sent everywhere. Hawaii is a good place, and you have to guard it. Qishi took care of his family members  They can also be transferred from Hubei. Hongde's children in Yantai, their hometown, can also come to study, and you and Yingzi's family can live on the shore." Li Yingzi choked and said: "Uncle, we can't bear to leave you!" Chen Jiayong  Said: "I can't bear to leave you, but there is no feast that never ends. The nieces who stayed on this ship, Cui Shuzhen and Li Wuming stayed in Bahrain, Jin Ruzhen married Said of Oman, and Li Yajuan went to the Navy Commander  Department, Lan Huahua went to Xi'an. Yinzhen and Yagu also went to the islands for several years before coming back. I feel relieved that you and Hongde stayed in Hawaii." He then said to Yang Xi: "Don't envy your former deputy  The squad leader has changed his job, and you still have to follow me. Your family will have it, and your wife will have it too."

    That night, Chen Jiayong stayed in Zhao Yiman's room. Looking at the port lights outside the porthole, Zhao Yiman sighed and said: "Brother, we have rewritten the Chinese ancestors' definition of 'the ends of the earth' and the 'ends of the sea'."  Come to Hawaii in the Pacific Ocean." Chen Jiayong said: "Little sister, we have worked hard for decades, just for this day!"
