Chapter 938 937 [Accompanying]

Zhou Mansion.

Zhou Hexuan took out a stack of comic plot manuscripts, handed them to Wanrong and said: "This is the plot of "Captain China" for the next two months. You hand the manuscripts to the artists."

"Well, you go early and come back early." Wanrong nodded.

Zhou Hexuan said to Meng Xiaodong again: "I won't be able to go to the premiere of the Drama Association's new play next month. Please say sorry to Mr. Guo for me."

Meng Xiaodong smiled and said, "Mr. Guo will understand."

Zhou Hexuan turned to Liao Yaquan: "Educate your children well at home, and the Japanese army will definitely not be able to attack Chongqing."

Liao Yaquan said: "I am ready to take my children away at any time."

Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "You used to want to immigrate to Europe, but now Europe is also in chaos."

Liao Yaquan said: "Then go to the United States."

"We'll talk about it when I get back," Zhou Hexuan stopped talking nonsense to Liao Yaquan, but told Ruan Lingyu and Zhou Xuan, "Don't go out if you have nothing to do, especially Xuanzi, who is singing in the theater and is ready to run to the air-raid shelter at any time."

"Well, we will pay attention." Ruan Lingyu and Zhou Xuan nodded in unison.

Zhou Hexuan finally said to Zhang Leyi and Cui Huifu: "You should pay more attention at home."

Cui Huifu said: "There will be no chaos at home."

Zhang Leyi said: "Brother Xuan, how about I go to England with you?"

"It's too dangerous. London may be bombed by Germany, just like Chongqing." Zhou Hexuan patted Zhang Leyi on the shoulder, "Just wait for me to come back."

Ma Jue, who had been standing next to him, suddenly said: "Sir, I will accompany you to the UK. When traveling to a foreign country, you must bring a secretary with you to be responsible for daily contacts and paperwork. I am a Ph.D. from the University of London and I am familiar with the situation in the UK."

Zhou Hexuan said: "Guoda will go with me."

Ma Jue said: "He can't do it. His spoken English is very poor and he doesn't understand social etiquette. When I was studying at Peking University, I was ordered to receive several important foreign guests. I have experience in this area."

Zhou Hexuan said: "Then I choose an editor from Ta Kung Pao to be my secretary. If that doesn't work, the government will also provide me with a secretary and attaché. You are a girl, this trip is too dangerous, and you might encounter a German plane interception on the way. .”

Ma Jue didn't insist anymore and looked aggrieved.

Zhang Leyi sighed and suddenly said: "Let Xiaojue go with you, it will be easier to take care of your life if you have a woman. If it doesn't work, I will go with you. It's strange for a grown man to be worried outside."

Zhou Hexuan was speechless and said angrily: "What are you messing with? It's just nonsense."

At this moment, the servant suddenly came to report: "Sir, someone from the central government is here!"

Zhou Hexuan left the women and said, "Invite them to the reception room."

This time, a total of two people came, namely Wang Rizhang, secretary of the Executive Yuan and leader of the confidential team, who was responsible for doing secretarial work for Zhou Hexuan, while also connecting with the embassy in the UK and communicating domestic information. There is also Ju Yiqiao, Chang Kaishen's internal bodyguard, who is responsible for Zhou Hexuan's security work and also plays a surveillance role. After all, the matter discussed this time is too big.

"Mr. Zhou, I am extremely honored to be able to do great things with you." Wang Rizhang laughed.

Zhou Hexuan said: "I must ask for a masterpiece by Mr. Wang."

Wang Rizhang agreed: "I will definitely draw one specifically for Mr. Zhou."

Even though Wang Rizhang was the head confidential secretary of the Executive Yuan, he was a painter by profession. At this time, he served as a director of the National Anti-Japanese War Association of Art Circles together with Xu Beihong, Pan Tianshou and others.

Ju Yiqiao held his head high, stood at attention and saluted: "Mr. Zhou, I have been ordered by the President to protect your safety. From today on, I will never leave you!"

Zhou Hexuan cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Brother, you are welcome to work."

These two people were both absolute confidants of Chiang Kai-shek. Wang Rizhang was a fellow villager of Chang Kaishen. They were also distant cousins. Comrade Nikolai had to call Wang Rizhang his uncle.

By the way, Wang Rizhang later stayed in the mainland. He was very dissatisfied with the depiction of Chiang Kai-shek in film and television works. According to Mr. Wang, Chiang Kai-shek never called him "Mother Xipi", but when he got angry, he would call him "bastard".

Therefore, our book is also written randomly. Mr. Wang will definitely be unhappy when he sees it.

As for Ju Yiqiao, he is a sixth-term graduate of Huangpu. Even Dai Li would not dare to offend this person and would respectfully call him "brother" every time they meet. Moreover, among Chang Kaishen's bodyguards, Ju Yiqiao is considered to be the more courageous one.

When the Battle of Taierzhuang started, Chiang Kai-shek flew to the front line and could only stare at Li Zongren because the 31st Division of the combat force had lost contact. Without knowing whether the 31st Division would fight, surrender or collapse, it was difficult for the headquarters to formulate the next battle plan.

At this moment, Ju Yiqiao took the initiative to ask for help. He took a train to a place two miles away from Taierzhuang, walked across the battlefield under artillery fire, and successfully contacted the 31st Division. Based on this information, the headquarters encircled the Japanese troops in Taierzhuang.

After a few pleasantries, Wang Rizhang quickly got down to business: "Mr. Zhou, the departure route has been arranged. We will fly from Chongqing to Kunming, then from Kunming to Singapore, then from Singapore to Egypt, and then from Egypt to London directly."

Zhou Hexuan suddenly felt worried: "Flying all the way there? I'm afraid something could happen easily."

Wang Rizhang said: "The task is urgent, and there cannot be any delay. In addition, Mr. Zhou should not bring too many followers. We will travel lightly and keep the number within seven."

"Okay." Zhou Hexuan decided to carry a parachute on his back at all times and jump down if necessary. Even if he is intercepted by a German plane, as long as he is not beaten to death on the spot, the worst case scenario is that he will be taken to Berlin and continue to be a magician.

Wang Rizhang added: "Mr. Zhou, we will stay at your house today and set off together tomorrow."

Zhou Hexuan nodded and said: "No problem, I will ask the servant to arrange a room for you two."

That night.

Wang Rizhang was about to go to bed when there was a sudden knock on the door. He opened the door and saw a beautiful woman. He suddenly asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"

Ma Jue said: "Mr. Wang, I am a Ph.D. from the London School of Economics and Political Science, and my supervisor is a senior adviser to the British Foreign Service. I hope to go to the United Kingdom with you. Maybe I can help a little."

Wang Rizhang said in surprise: "The London School of Economics and Political Science is a top university, but I didn't expect that there would be a Chinese female doctor. By the way, who is your father?"

Ma Jue said: "My father, Ma Yuzao."

Wang Rizhang immediately laughed and said: "I didn't expect that he was Mr. Youyu's daughter. I met your father ten years ago. He came to Shanghai for a meeting and I was teaching in Shanghai. I also asked him for advice on phonology."

Ma Jue also laughed: "It turns out we are still old acquaintances, so I will call you Brother Wang."

Wang Rizhang asked: "By the way, what is your relationship with Mr. Zhou?"

Ma Jue blushed and said: "He is half teacher and half friend. I have been living in Zhou's house now. I am a little worried about him going to London, so I want to go there to help and take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation."

Wang Rizhang immediately understood and said with a smile: "I understand, I understand, beautiful women admire talented men. Don't worry, I will definitely not agree to another woman following you, but you are a doctor from the London School of Economics and Political Science, and your mentor is a staff member of the British Foreign Office. , which is also helpful for our mission.”
