Back to the Republic of China to be a editor

"Jiansheng, yesterday you played the role of the US army fighting the Chinese army, and today you played the role of the Chinese army fighting the US army. It's too free for one person to play two roles. In the words of the foreign doctor, this is called schizophrenia."

"Laisong, you and I will be in charge while doing weapon deduction, so I have to do everything by myself. As for leisure, I have been in Hong Kong for two years and have been an apartment for two years. Can I not be free?"

"Afraid of being idle, why did you escape from Taipei and come to Hong Kong?" Wei Yunsong, who was in the wheelchair, leaned limply on the back of the chair, and said inarticulately.

"Staying in Taipei is a dead end."

"When you came to Hong Kong to join me, you said that Chiang Kai-shek was dead, and the Republic of China was going to end in Taiwan. But I think it has been two years, and Chiang Kai-shek is still staying in Taiwan well."

The two "old men" of the Guangxi Clan, Bai Chongxi, a first-level general of the national army, and Wei Yunsong, a second-level general of the national army, are now spending time in their apartment on Argyle Street in Hong Kong.

In fact, Bai Chongxi should not have appeared here.

In December 1949, Bai Chongxi fled the mainland by plane, first flew to Hainan Island, and then Chiang Kai-shek invited him to form a cabinet in Taipei, and he agreed.Li Zongren once warned Bai that "the Guangxi family has no use in Taiwan", but Bai refused to listen and flew from Haikou to Taipei as originally planned.Sure enough, as Li Zongren expected, he was deprived of military power when he arrived in Taipei. He only served as the vice chairman of the Strategic Advisory Committee of the Presidential Office and also served as the chairman of the Chinese Islamic Association.

Even so, Bai Chongxi didn't want to leave for a while.Probably because Taiwan has a small population and a small land. When the national army expands rapidly when it counterattacks the mainland in the future, Chiang Kai-shek will have to ask himself to take charge of the army sooner or later. After all, these are the only generals in the national army system who can fight.

The result of the Battle of Penghu was like a heavy bomb falling on Taipei, which shocked Bai Chongxi with fear.As he said, there are not many generals in the national army system who can fight.Most people lack military sensitivity, but Bai Chongxi does.When most of the party-state generals and high-ranking officials thought "Oh, another island has been lost", what Bai Chongxi thought was "Taiwan cannot be defended anymore".

He only glanced at the map, closed his eyes and imagined that the Penghu Islands were painted red, and Bai Chongxi ordered the adjutant to prepare the outfit, and secretly contacted the passenger plane in Hong Kong.

On June 1950, 6, on the day Hu Lian escaped from Penghu by single boat and came to Taipei to plead guilty to the old man, Bai Chongxi boarded the plane with a false name, and stayed in the apartment of Wei Yunsong, who first came to Hong Kong to seek refuge. .It is said that it is a temporary residence, but I accidentally lived there for 22 years.

It was only later that I found out that Chiang Kai-shek was ready to put him and other veterans with similar qualifications under house arrest. When he was flying to Hong Kong, Bai Chongxi was opposite to his apartment in Taipei. His every move was monitored 24 hours a day, and Chiang Kai-shek made him a member of the Central Committee of the more marginal Kuomintang Reform Committee, kicking him out of the ranks of the Kuomintang Central Committee and Central Standing Committee.

"Chiang Kai-shek is dead, I still say so." Bai Chongxi said, "If Chiang Kai-shek still controls Penghu, maybe he can stick to it, and if he has the support of the Americans, maybe he can survive until the seat is passed to him. Big boy. If Kinmen was not lost in 49, then Chiang Kai-shek would not only be able to defend Taiwan, but also have a counterattack springboard. Now? No one can save him."

"So you see Chiang Kai-shek as 'I can't save you, let's die and leave', haha, haha." Wei Yunsong laughed.

"The Taiwan Strait was originally 200 kilometers wide. Now that the Penghu Islands are lost, there are only 50 kilometers left. The barrier between Chiang Kai-shek and the mainland is only this 50-kilometer strait. Nothing happened, because China concentrated all its military and financial resources to the north, and fought with the United States. Now the Americans don’t want to fight, and they are negotiating with the Chinese. Last year’s negotiations were fake talks, but this year’s negotiations, the Americans really want to cease the war. China Sign an armistice agreement with the United States, and those tiger and wolf troops who have been fighting with the US military on the Korean Peninsula for two years will go south, and by then, Chiang Kai-shek will die without knowing how.”

"Hang. Come to think of it, the Volunteers were able to eat up an entire division of the U.S. Army in North Korea, something even Hitler couldn't do. Why didn't we have such fighting power when we fought the Japanese before?" At this point, Wei Yunsong was so excited that he wanted to get out of his wheelchair. stand up.

"...The Penghu Strait is too narrow, and the U.S. Navy always misses out. The Chinese Army is too strong, and the U.S. Army's reinforcements to Taiwan are completely free. Sending two divisions and three divisions up is probably still free. Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek Sooner or later, I have to go out and work as an apartment." Bai Chongxi said.

Wei Yunsong: "After Chiang Kai-shek's Republic of China is completely destroyed, what will you do?"

Bai Chongxi: "It doesn't matter to me if his Republic of China is destroyed."

Wei Yunsong: "I really have nothing to do with the life and death of the Republic of China. I am an old bone, and I have automatically withdrawn from the stage of history long ago... Brother Jiansheng, although you have resolutely abandoned the chairman, you are a believer in the Three People's Principles. Standpoints are engraved in the bones. Even if the Republic of China is only a small piece of land in Taiwan, it is still alive, and there is hope in your heart. But if the Republic of China is completely destroyed, your last psychological sustenance will be gone.”

Bai Chongxi didn't answer Wei Yunsong's words, but just sneered (not directed at anyone present).

……

Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA.

The apartment that Li Zongren, the former vice president and acting president of the Republic of China, bought after he immigrated to the United States.

After getting up and walking for half an hour in the morning, when Li Zongren returned to the house, a bowl of rice noodles made by the servant and the chef according to his instructions had already been placed on the dining table.

Li Zongren sat down and picked up his chopsticks.

Although the rice noodles were squeezed very thick, twice as thick as normal rice noodles, more than half of them were broken when the chopsticks picked it up, and they fell down one after another, and fell back into the bowl.

Li Zongren sighed. Although some rice is grown in the southern part of the United States, the rice noodles made from American rice are really horrible.

Forget it or eat it, the smashed rice noodles are also rice noodles.

Pick up the bowl and pull the fragile version of rice noodles into your mouth. The marinade doesn't taste that way at all, it's just soy sauce soup with a little lard sprinkled on it.Except that it is salty and oily, the taste has no layering.

Pick up another piece of char siu and put it in your mouth, and bite it without moving.Li Zongren felt that the char siu was as chewy as a piece of wood after changing the big molars. Li Zongren felt that his teeth were so tired after eating a piece of char siew.

"Forget it, don't eat." Li Zongren pushed the bowl away.The black maid and the black cook came out to collect the tableware.

In November 1949, Li Zongren flew from Nanning to Hong Kong in the name of seeking medical treatment, and then flew to the United States in December, where he became an apartment.

In January 1950, Li Zongren learned that Bai Chongxi planned to go to Taiwan on invitation, and sent a telegram to Bai Chongxi to persuade him not to go.As a result, Bai Chongxi, Li Pinxian and others jointly called Li Zongren back, saying, "If you continue to rest in the United States, you may be absent from state affairs for a long time, you should call the central government and automatically remove the acting president." Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi simply broke contact.

For more than two years, Li Zongren has lived in this small town on the lower reaches of the Mississippi River without worrying about Taiwan affairs, and sometimes even rolled up his trousers to grow rice under the ground.If there is any change in life, it is that since 1951, the neighbors and the citizens they met when they went out no longer looked at his Asian face with curiosity, but with a little respect.Li Zongren's servant also wisely told some neighbors and friends who inquired about the details, "My master is a retired Chinese general", and they were amazed.

"Master Li, there is a gentleman named Xu Deming visiting. He said that he wrote to you a few days ago and made an appointment."

"Please come in, I'll meet him in the living room." Li Zongren said.

This is a businessman who asked for contact in a letter a few days ago. He claimed to have immigrated to the United States from Taiwan half a year ago, and now he is engaged in transportation trade and investment. ——Not all the Kuomintang veterans who fled to the United States are not short of money as apartments, and some apartments are really struggling.

People like Xu Deming, who fled to Taiwan and then left the island to go their own way, are not rare now.Li Zongren knew that Wu Guozhen, a political member of Taiwan's Executive Yuan, had also gone to the United States as an apartment.

Xu Deming walked into the living room and greeted Li Zongren in Mandarin with a slight Shanghai accent.Wearing a well-fitting suit, everything from hair to leather shoes to the handkerchief in his pocket is meticulously tidied.

"You are Mr. Xu Deming from Huayehang?" Li Zongren said.

"Huayehang is the name of my company registered in the United States. I used many names when I was in the mainland and the Soviet Union, such as Xiao Shu'an, Xiao An, Andre... But when talking with Mr. Li, the younger generation should be honest. See you. I have never met Mr. Li, but we should have known each other's name for a long time. I am Pan Hannian."

Pan Hannian was smiling, still looking polite.

Chapter 226, I want to make them all in one silicon wafer

Although Tang Hua instructed the architectural design team to design the building as low-key as possible, the completed Beijing Computer Institute and Beijing Communication Electronics Institute have become the most magnificent buildings in Zhongguancun.

Because in addition to the countryside and farmland in Zhongguancun, there are no old broken graves that are worshiped by future generations.As long as you build some modern houses casually, you will immediately stand out from the crowd.The office buildings and dormitory buildings of the two institutes have no more than 6 floors, and the yards are actually connected, but there are two gates.In addition to the gate, there are also two canteens inside, which belong to the Computer Institute and the Communication Electronics Institute.

When Tang Hua returned from the Soviet Union, the Computer Institute and Communication Electronics Institute had completed the relocation project and were officially opened.

"Who also took down the plaque of Liumeiyuan and moved it here together? Zhang Jue, is that you?"

When Tang Hua entered the computer office, the first thing he saw was a wooden plaque placed on the ground in a corner of the hall. This was the address of the office building where the computer was used.

When the Computer Institute was established, it borrowed a brothel where the landlord and the shopkeeper ran together as an office building. The brothel was named Liumeiyuan.

Tang Hua knew that the employees of the Computer Institute later called their offices Liumeiyuan, and this nickname was not only used by the Beijing Electronic Information Industry Bureau, but also by research institutes and factories in other places.

"Xiaoqian, you haven't written me a letter for a year after graduation, which unit do you work in now?" "I'm in Liumeiyuan"

"The task is very tight. Everyone may have to work overtime this weekend. Let's set the time at 10 am. Come to Liumeiyuan on time and have a short meeting before working."

"Feng Laoliu, you have to be mentally prepared for your application to be transferred from the Shanghai Research Institute to the Liumei Academy. Most of the projects undertaken by the Liumei Academy are national defense computers, which are highly confidential. Working there may be very inconvenient and not free. .”

……

Zhang Jue trotted downstairs, "Minister Tang, it's not... Anyway, after we moved out, the Liumei Courtyard was going to be demolished and built some municipal works, so we discussed it and took the plaque away. We I have worked there for more than two years, and I have a little affection for the old office building, so leave a plaque as a commemoration, and it may become a historical relic in the future.”

To put it bluntly, in the brothel era, Beijing Computer Institute developed 3 types of missile fire control computers and several variants, of which two anti-aircraft missile computers are occupying the sky in North Korea, which will probably be written into history in the future. "Then keep it well." Tang Hua said, "Just don't hang it up."

"The monthly output of the third-generation transistors has increased to 60, but it is still not enough, and we need to continue to expand. The output of the second-generation transistors has shrunk to 5 a month, and it has basically stabilized. The process of light-emitting diodes is more complicated. , Fortunately, it is now an experimental production, the output is very small, and it is also very stable, so there is no need to make major adjustments."
