Even Sun Yong privately asked him to protect the eldest young master.

But in fact, is the eldest young master Chen Tianhua the kind of person who can listen to the advice of others?

This has always given Li Xinghong a headache.

Chen Tianhua snorted, and then he realized that Li Xinghong was showing off to him like a treasure today, but he didn't expect that the root cause was buried here?!

Li Cunzhi sent Li Xinghong to follow Chen Tianhua, mainly to assist and protect him, and of course, to secretly supervise his behavior.

Chen Tianhua smiled awkwardly and said: "I just don't accept the provocation of the Japanese. Besides, we have mastered their ambush plan. It will not be difficult to defeat them. In fact, there is not much danger?"

"You said there's not much danger?!" Li Xinghong snorted, and wanted to retort with a sullen face, but in a flash he thought that it was too refuting the young master's face, so he said calmly:

"Major General, when you leave the official residence in Meishan Town, you have to tell us first, or leave a letter, but if you don't, you will disappear."

"I know that you are arranging matters through the Investigation Department now, but it's not that I don't trust Director Yunyuan. Her Military Investigation Department is a mixed bag. If the news is accidentally exposed and someone with ulterior motives finds out, it will be a big deal.

thing."

"Besides, if you want to go to southern Jiangxi to see Song Xiaoniu, you can ask him to return to the base camp to report on his work. Even if you want to conduct an on-site inspection, you don't have to go to such a dangerous place in person. The investigation department's spies are there."

"Well..."

Chen Tianhua knew that Li Xinghong talked about Datong in a crackling manner, as if he was complaining, but his words were rough but not rough. He was right.

But being snatched away by a subordinate so ruthlessly, Chen Tianhua felt extremely embarrassed, and his face could not help but turn slightly red.

Li Xinghong saw Chen Tianhua's slightly displeased expression, and knew that the heat had reached its peak, and if he said anything more, it would be extremely counterproductive.

"Major General, you are the god of our Meiguang Autonomous Region and the support of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians here. Now all aspects of business are booming, and there are many talents under your command, but these people are gathered together because of you. You are here

We are working together here, without you, this place would probably be in disarray. Every one of our subordinates hopes that you can take care of yourself!"

Chen Tianhua kept nodding.

Li Xinghong's words are reasonable, although they don't sound good, but as the saying goes, good medicine is bitter in the mouth and good for the disease, and loyal words are hard on the ears and good for action. Among all his subordinates, he is the only one who dares to talk to him like this. This is why he thinks so highly of him.

reason.

Liao Yunpeng was extremely talented, but sometimes seemed pedantic. Zheng Kun was loyal, but not as talented as them. Ji Chunsheng was too cautious.

Xu Yunyuan is talented, but in such a close relationship with her, she only obeys her husband's words. Sometimes she knows that she is not doing the right thing, but she will not insist on it.

Not to mention others such as Jiang Wu, Chen Er, Luo Erhu, Song Xiaoniu, Gu Zhunian, etc., the only ones who obey the orders of the Major General are those who point east to attack east and point west to fight west.

"Brother Xinghong, you and I have known each other for more than five years. Because of my willfulness, my brother has endured a lot of pressure and grievances. I know this, and I will never do this again in the future. I will keep your words in mind!"

Chen Tianhua solemnly bowed to Li Xinghong and saluted.

Li Xinghong dared to accept this gift, but he bent down on one knee and said: "The fact that the Major General can accept the suggestion is a blessing for us as subordinates and a blessing for the Meiguang Autonomous Region!"

Chen Tianhua laughed loudly and pulled Li Xinghong up, and said in a deep voice: "Brothers work together to break gold, and the younger brother will have a prosperous future, and the elder brother must be indispensable."

"You are so polite, Major General. Xinghong hopes that Major General will act accordingly."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get back to the carriage. Remember to equip Xu Yunyuan with a top-level official carriage like mine, and also allocate a few carriages to the investigation office. They have a lot of female civilian staff. It is inconvenient to go out on business.

Don't forget to ride a horse?" Chen Tianhua suddenly asked.

This time it was true that the pot was no longer open, so Li Xinghong replied directly without even thinking about it: "Young General, I'm afraid this won't work!"

"It doesn't work, why?" Chen Tianhua felt really unhappy after hearing this.

You talked to me for so long before, and I didn't say anything. In the end, I even apologized to you. But who is Xu Yunyuan to me? Others don't know clearly, but you still don't know?

Since the eldest lady Li Shuzhen can have a bulletproof carriage, why can’t the second lady Xu Yunyuan?

Moreover, she is now the director of the Military Investigation Division and is a senior officer in the Third Association.

Li Xinghong saw Chen Tianhua's obviously angry look. If it was something else, he could give in, but this was definitely not an option.

Xu Yunyuan's actions in the Meiguang Autonomous Region, her privileges in the Military Investigation Department, and Chen Tianhua's favor have aroused the dissatisfaction of many officials in the region.

The Military Investigation Division not only collects military intelligence, but also includes economic intelligence, interpersonal relationships in official circles, domestic and foreign affairs, and everything in between.

Not only that, Xu Yunyuan's tentacles are also within the autonomous region's garrison and administrative offices, placing and developing members and informants, secretly investigating corruption and bribery of civil and military officials, and even gambling and prostitution, etc. There are people who are collecting such dirty things.

What made Li Xinghong very unhappy was that Xu Yunyuan never seemed to take him as the second-ranking figure in the New Army seriously. She never reported any information, especially involving military information, to him, not even a copy of it.

Many war reports were reviewed by Chen Tianhua and deemed suitable for transfer, so he signed the opinion: Forward to Mr. Li Xinghong and Chief of Staff for circulation.

There is also a privilege. The investigation office's funds are not subject to budget restrictions. They are all specially approved by Chen Tianhua, and they can be given as much as they want.

The current staffing of the Investigation Department is astonishing. The headquarters, Shanghai branch, and various workstations have a formal establishment of more than 800 people, of which Gu Zhunian's special operations team has more than 500 people.

This does not include non-staff informants, spies, etc.

This is a huge expense.

Naturally, someone brought this situation to Hangzhou, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the old man in Hangzhou, who secretly sent a message to restrict Xu Yunyuan's influence.

"Major General, it is true that Xu Yunyuan is your secret wife, but this cannot be put on the table openly. In addition, the Military Investigation Department belongs to the military and is not a civilian official in the yamen. According to your instructions, it can only be done on horseback.

Let me see, just send a few ordinary carriages over."

"this?"

Chen Tianhua couldn't help but be startled, "The Military Investigation Office is both a military and an administrative office. It is very different from a combat force. Isn't it just a two-wheel-drive luxury carriage? As for such a calculation?"

Li Xinghong shook his head and said with a bitter smile:

"My Major General, the top official chariot is a symbol of official rank and rank. It is definitely more than just a carriage!"
