    The sudden report interrupted Mr. Su's idea of ??taking a nap with his wife and taking the opportunity to do something inappropriate for children. As a result, someone became extremely angry. He waved his hand without thinking and said: "Let this person  Get out of here, guy, I don¡¯t have time to see him!¡±

    "Puch!"

    Seeing Su Rui's dissatisfied look, Xu Yaoshan, who had been husband and wife with him for several years, could naturally see her husband's evil intentions. She chuckled before reaching out and pinching his waist gently with a coquettish voice.  He scolded: "You guys, what bad things are you thinking of doing? Colonel Hurley doesn't come to our door easily. Why do you still let people turn away when he comes to visit us today? Why don't you go see him quickly?"

    "No, I'll see you when you say no. I'm a dignified general of a country, and he's just a colonel. There's such a huge difference in status. It's not equal at all." Su Rui put his hands on his hips and put on airs.  .

    "Okay, okay, hurry up and get down to business. At worst, I will just stay with you tonight." Xu Yaoshan pushed her husband helplessly.  Others don't know Suri's temper, but she knows it all too well after sleeping with him for several years. This guy seems to be more and more mature on weekdays, and he seems to be less angry on the surface.  The temperament of self-respect.  But only these few people who sleep with her know that their husband is actually quite childish sometimes, just like a child who needs to be coaxed from time to time.

    "Forget it Zhongxin, since Colonel Hurley is here and everyone here is a guest, you might as well meet him." These were Song Ziqing's words.

    "That's right, Zhongxin. It's hard for me to come here, but you can't ignore me. This is not the way to treat guests." This sentence was said by Yang Peile.

    "Hey, you all deserve to be from scholarly families." Someone felt that the roots of his teeth were itching.

    Finally, someone whose teeth were itching with hatred grunted twice, grinded his teeth twice more, and then said in a muffled voice reluctantly: "Okay, let that Hurley come in."

    soon.  When Hurley, dressed in military uniform, walked into the pavilion, Song Ziqing and the three girls had already left.  At this time, unlike later generations, when guests came to visit, family members could not easily see outsiders, except for those who really had family friendships or family friends.

    Hurley still has the slightly upturned beard, and his red cheeks still have a proud smile that seems to make everyone look down upon him.

    As soon as he entered the backyard, Su Ruiji walked up to him, shook hands with Hurley, and said with a smile: "Oh, Colonel Hurley, what kind of wind brought you here today? You are  A rare guest, no wonder I woke up this morning and saw the magpies in front of my door chirping non-stop."

    Although Hurley has been in China for several years, he still has not figured out the relationship between VIPs and magpies.  However, this did not prevent him from showing a "sincere" smile: "Haha, General Su is so polite. Your troops won such a great victory in Fujian and sank a Japanese ship in Fujian waters."  Aircraft carrier and more than a dozen warships, as an old friend of the Chinese people, shouldn¡¯t I come to congratulate you?¡±

    The two people, who had their own secrets, shook hands in a pretentious manner and then quickly separated. The two sat down in the pavilion, and soon a young servant brought two cups of tea.  Suri pointed his hand and said with a smile: "Colonel Hurley, I'm so sorry. We don't have the habit of drinking coffee at home, so I can only treat you to a cup of tea. You won't mind, right?"

    "Come on, General Su is so polite. According to scientific research, drinking tea is healthier than drinking coffee, so I have switched to drinking tea during this period." Hurley said very politely as he picked up the cup.  He took a sip from the cup, and then said in surprise: "Oh, this tea is really good. The best Shifeng Yuqian Longjing!"

    Su Rui was slightly startled, and couldn't help but look deeply at the foreign devil with some surprise.  Su Rui is a powerful war zone commander with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command.  With tens of millions of people under his control, he was naturally not so poor that he couldn't even afford coffee for his guests. It was just that he had never had a good impression of the American military attache in China with his nose turned upward, so he specially asked someone to bring tea out to entertain his guests.  , I didn¡¯t expect this foreigner to be really knowledgeable. Not only did he recognize Longjing tea, but he even pointed out the place of origin and season.

    "Isn't this guy trying to trick others?" Su Rui thought angrily.  A person who traveled through time from later generations has no trace of elegance in his bones. In his previous life, he was a bastard. Not to mention that he could drink Dragon and Lion's Yuqian Longjing. I'm afraid all the tea in his mouth would change.  into the same flavor.

    But fortunately today is not a tea tasting party, so the guilt in this guy¡¯s heart only flashed by and was never found again.  Suri put down the tea cup and smiled lightly: "Colonel Hurley, you didn't come here specifically to drink tea with me today, did you?"

    "Of course not?, I know you are busy, so in addition to congratulating you on your department's great victory, I came here today to tell you that our government has sent a telegram and officially informed you that you were sent to the United States last year for security work.  Three hundred cadets at the Napolis Naval Academy will complete their training period this December and return home.  President Roosevelt of our country has asked me to convey to you that if you wish to increase the number of naval personnel sent to the United States in the next period, our Annapolis Naval Academy and the United States Naval War College are willing to open our doors to you.  "

    "Is there such a good thing?"

    Su Rui was slightly startled when he first heard the news. You must know that isolationism in the United States these days is not just talk, it is also reflected in all aspects of the United States.  For example, as early as many years ago when the U.S. government and the Japanese were flirting with each other, the U.S. government openly or covertly blocked the quota of Chinese students sent to various military academies in the United States.  Even last year when Su Rui wanted to send 300 naval cadets to the United States, Su Rui had to pay a certain price to get the quota. Why are Americans so enthusiastic today?

    Hearing this good news, Su Rui, who had always believed in the saying that being courteous for nothing is either a traitor or a thief, instead of showing any joy, he felt respect in his heart.  He hid the strange look on his face by lowering his head to drink tea. After taking a few sips of tea, he said: "Colonel Hurley, if you have any more news to tell me, you might as well tell me together.  Well, you don¡¯t have to ask me one by one.¡±

    "Haha General Su, you are so wise." Hurley laughed twice before saying, "That's right, I'm afraid you don't know yet, but just two days ago, Chairman Chiang's wife came to our United States of America.  , had detailed talks with our President Roosevelt, and also gave a speech in our Congress and achieved great success. On behalf of your government, Mrs. Chiang formally made a request to our government for more aid to China. After  With the careful consideration of our Government and the approval of Congress, President Roosevelt has approved this request of your Government."

    At this point, Hurley secretly glanced at Suri out of the corner of his eye, but found that there was nothing strange about Suri's face. He secretly swallowed and then said: "Therefore, President Roosevelt believes that  , if we want to increase the amount of aid materials to China, then relying on Guangzhou as a port as a transfer station for materials will be too crowded and inconvenient, so therefore" At this point, Hurley's voice began to sound a little  He hesitated.

    "So what, Colonel Hurley?" Suri's voice quickly rang.

    Hurley gritted his teeth secretly, and then said: "President Roosevelt of our country believes that it is necessary to open another port as a transfer station for aid supplies to China, and we think it is most appropriate to establish this transfer station in your newly recovered Fujian Province.  . As such an important place, the material transfer station should strengthen its guard work. Our government believes that it is most appropriate for it to be in the hands of your government, so"

    Su Rui¡¯s suppressed angry voice immediately rang out in the pavilion: ¡°So you want me to hand over Fujian, which cost more than 20,000 casualties to others, to others, is that right? Colonel Hurley?¡±

    "Ohplease don't be so excited, dear General Su." Hurley quickly said: "General, please forgive me, everything should be prioritized. The most important thing in your country right now is  It is to resist Japanese aggression and fight against the Japanese, and if I remember correctly, you and your troops are also affiliated with the National Government, so you should also obey the orders of the government, right?"

    "Yes, but that's just in name only." Su Rui said coldly: "And this is our country's internal affairs, and your government should not have to intervene, right?"

    At this time, Su Rui was very angry. Yes, he was very angry. In later generations, he often heard that Americans always like to interfere in other countries' internal affairs. But at that time, he was just a little prostitute at the bottom of society. This  He could only listen to such national events, but today he finally directly felt the power of such interference.

    Hurley on the side naturally felt Suri's anger.  His brows slowly wrinkled, and he couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart. Whose bastard came up with the idea to actually ask the man in front of him to hand over the territory he had just conquered with both hands. If it were him, he wouldn't have agreed.  What an idiot's idea!

    Su Rui took a deep breath before saying: "Colonel Hurley, if your government wants me to hand over Fujian to the National Government in exchange for increasing the number of naval cadets studying in the United States, then I can tell you right now that this is impossible! And!  I would also like to advise your government that this is our country¡¯s internal affairs and no one else needs to interfere. Do you hear me clearly?¡±

    Anyone can hear the determination in Suri¡¯s tone, and Hurley is no exception¡­(To be continued)
