    Chapter 850: Accept people first and accept them first

    As night falls, the happy crowds on the dock of the Qingdao Naval Base have dispersed. Only one warship is moored quietly on the shore. The light gray hull is majestic and solemn in the night, and the waves are gently lapping the hull.  , the warship is as peaceful as a baby sleeping in its mother's arms.  (_-< Registered members of Piaotian Literature recommend this work >-)

    The duty of the military port has been taken over by a brigade of Li Honggang's 29th Corps. Sentinels stood under each warship, and there were also groups of mobile patrol sentries passing through the spacious dock from time to time. Tang Qiuli faced  The security requirements for the entire fleet are extremely strict, and no one is allowed to approach the docks or warships regardless of their status. This is a security system that distinguishes it from other units of the ** division stationed in Qingdao.

    Even the passwords at night are different. They were formulated by Li Honggang alone. Once anyone approaches at night with incorrect passwords or suspicious behavior, the patrolling sentry has the right to shoot and kill on the spot. Even Tang Qiuli or Li Honggang  Even if he didn't have the correct password and a series of procedures, he wouldn't be able to enter the military port. In Tang Qiuli's words, he couldn't protect these treasures who came from afar enough.

    It is not the largest and most luxurious hotel in Qingdao, but it is definitely the most authentic Chinese restaurant in Qingdao, Jufushun Restaurant. Compared with the surrounding hotels with flashing neon lights, it is less lively, with an antique facade and a long row of red palace lanterns.  , there are eight guises hanging at the door, but they illustrate the restaurant¡¯s status in Qingdao¡¯s Chinese food industry.

    Tonight, at the door of the restaurant, a sign as tall as one person was erected. On it were written a few big characters in Song Dynasty: "Guests reserve the place."  Wearing a white towel, he kept clasping his fists and apologizing to the customers who came to the door for not paying attention to the sign, while saying polite words.

    Some guests were puzzled and asked the waiter at the door. The waiter lowered his voice and told the guest mysteriously: "You don't know yet, but the distinguished guest who booked the table tonight is our Vice Chairman Tang, who is better than the Chairman of Shandong Provincial Government.  Commander Li Honggang of the Provincial Security Headquarters is a senior official, and the person hosting the banquet is still an old official. Do you think we can wait on you accidentally? I'm sorry, please come back another day."

    There was pride in the polite words. For a small restaurant, this famous official and anti-Japanese hero could choose this place. The guys all felt proud and proud, looking at the neon lights around the hotel.  , the usual feeling of suffocation disappeared, and the tone of voice became higher and higher.

    Tonight, it was indeed Tang Qiuli who reserved the banquet for all officers above the rank of lieutenant in the Pacific Fleet of the former Soviet Union. According to Tang Qiuli's wishes, all Soviet sailors were invited, but there were more than 13,000 people.  Going there to find such a big hotel had no choice but to give up.

    Although they are only officers, there are nearly a thousand people. The navy is a technical service, and the ratio of officers to soldiers is very low. About seven or eight people, there is one officer. Tang Qiuli did this, firstly, to make these Soviet sailors feel  Their own enthusiasm can eliminate the shadow of their status as prisoners of war in their hearts, and they can let go of their hands and feet to do something big.

    Secondly, it also tells these Soviet soldiers that you have arrived on Chinese soil, and all habits must be in accordance with the Chinese way, including eating. This is why he chose the largest Chinese restaurant in Qingdao, Jufushun Restaurant. He can make a transition first.  One day, he ate in the Western restaurant of the naval base. From then on, it was all Chinese food. Tang Qiuli worked hard for this fleet.

    In addition to Tang Qiuli, he was accompanied by Major General Zhang Quan, the logistics director of the ** Division, as well as officers above the level of division director, and Major General Li Honggang, the commander of the 29th Corps of the ** Division. Of course, the special operations detachment was indispensable.  Major General Tang Qiuquan and all the officers above the captain level of the special operations detachment accompanied him. Together, they numbered more than a thousand people.

    Those ordinary Soviet sailors who had no chance to attend the banquet were not at a loss. They also held a grand banquet at the base, accompanied by all the soldiers of the special operations detachment. They had experienced more than ten days of sea voyage together and experienced the baptism of war. **  The performance of the soldiers of the division's special warfare detachment won the respect of the Soviet sailors and the friendship of some comrades. With their company, the Soviet sailors who first arrived in a strange country felt much less strange.

    Several colonels of the Pacific Fleet were at the table with Tang Qiuli and the others. The commander, political commissar and chief of staff of the fleet all committed suicide. Colonel Manikovsky, the captain of the aircraft carrier "Konizov", had the highest military rank.  One of the commanders, and his performance along the way made Qiuquan very satisfied, and Tang Qiuli naturally understood all this.

    Everything they experienced today made these Soviet naval officers feel like they were in a dream. First, there was the grand welcome ceremony on the dock, and now there is the sumptuous banquet, as well as the complete base facilities, which are better than Haishanwei.  Several times, what touched me the most was the feelings of the Chinese Communists and ordinary people towards them.? respect.

    Those days in the Japanese prisoner-of-war camp at Haishanwei represented humiliation and cruel torture for these Soviet soldiers. Originally, more than 15,000 captured Soviet soldiers were wantonly killed by Japanese soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camp.  More than 2,000 people were tortured and tortured to death. Those days were a lingering nightmare in the hearts of these Soviet soldiers. Not only were they physically tortured, but they were also mentally humiliated. The Japanese abused and killed prisoners of war.  This is also an important manifestation of the psychological disability of a nation.

    As prisoners of war, they will not receive good treatment there, and it is quite rare to save their lives. But everything that happened in Qingdao, China, today has subverted the inherent thinking of Soviet soldiers. They are not prisoners of war, but have returned triumphantly.  The soldiers were greeted with flowers and cheers.

    Tang Qiuli stood up, picked up a glass of wine, and swept each table softly with bright eyes. With this glance, the Soviet Red Army officers present seemed to have been touched somewhere in their hearts. Everyone felt that this  A Chinese general communicated with himself, his eyes full of expectation and sincerity.

    "Brave Soviet soldiers, on the way home, you used your brave fighting spirit to defeat the crazy siege of the Japanese navy. You showed your due military spirit and are worthy of the honor of the military. You also won the ** of all our Central Committee  To respect people, on behalf of the Chinese Civil Affairs Commission, I announce that all officers will be promoted to the first-level military rank and the salary of soldiers will be doubled. "

    "I hope that everyone will forget their previous identities from now on. You, like the Chinese people here, are members of our North China Navy Fleet. Here, you will receive higher treatment than our other troops.  , for our common future, please drink a toast." After Tang Qiuli finished speaking, he drank the wine in the cup.

    This was his brilliance. He gave the captured Soviet soldiers personal and spiritual respect, and then promoted them to higher ranks, improved the treatment of fleet soldiers, provided spiritual encouragement and material rewards. These Soviet soldiers who had no hope of returning home,  From now on, I won¡¯t devote my life to serving myself wholeheartedly.

    "To win people, you must first win their hearts," Tang Qiuli knew this well. These Soviets were the treasures of his powerful navy in the future. If they were asked to work hard, they would have to be treated accordingly. In addition, because  Because they are Soviets, if these captured people were the Japanese navy, Tang Qiuli would have ordered Brother Qiuquan to throw these garbage into the Sea of ??Japan to feed the sharks. It is difficult to remove the things in the bones of the Japanese, Tang Qiuli  Li also hates the Japanese. As for the Soviets, he doesn't have much ill feelings.

    All the Soviet naval officers drank the wine in one gulp. Commander Tang's words had made it very clear that they were no longer prisoners of war, but members of the squadron, and there was something beyond their imagination.  The treatment, especially those of the colonels, became generals in a blink of an eye. For a soldier, the dream of being a general is a memory that will never fade.

    Colonel Manikovsky felt the deepest. Looking at the high-spirited Tang Qiuli, his young face showed the kind of look that only a wise man can have. Following such a commander, the road ahead will definitely not be lonely. He will drink the cup  The wine was finished in one gulp, and a little spilled due to excitement. Perhaps at this moment, Manikovsky, a Soviet officer, strengthened his belief in following Tang Qiuli throughout his life. He was the first to wake up in the entire Soviet Pacific Fleet.  one of those.

    Drinking and laughing, cups of wine poured down the throats, turning into hot emotions. That night, many Soviet naval officers were drunk, drunk in a foreign country and a strange land. When they woke up in the morning, maybe  His blood has been immersed in the breath of this land, and from then on, his fate has been connected with this land.

    The next day, Tang Qiuli presided over the formation meeting of the Navy Fleet of the ** Division. The former Soviet Pacific Fleet was reorganized into the Chinese Fleet of the ** Division. Tang Qiuquan, captain of the Special Warfare Detachment of the ** Division, served as the fleet commander.  Rear Admiral Manikovsky, captain of the aircraft carrier "Konizov", serves as the first deputy commander of the fleet. At the same time, Qiuquan's military rank was also promoted from rear admiral to lieutenant general.

    Tang Qiuli carefully considered the appointment of Brother Qiuquan as the commander of the fleet. He was very worried that such a huge fleet would not be presided over by a calm and steady person. Moreover, the two brothers had knelt down last night.  During the long conversation, Tang Qiuli was surprised to find that his cousin's unique views and insights on the navy surprised him.

    This can only be described as talent. Tang Qiuli sincerely admires Brother Qiuquan. In just ten days, Brother Qiuquan has already touched the threshold of the navy. His understanding and mastery of the navy has surpassed his own.  , he never knew that Brother Qiuquan had a strong interest in this area.

    Given time, Tang Qiuquan will definitely become a general of the Chinese Navy. Moreover, Qiuquan himself is also very confident in serving as the commander of the fleet. As for the candidate for the leader of the special operations detachment, Tang Qiuquan sought Qiuquan¡¯s opinion., Qiuquan recommended without hesitation Chu Tian, ??captain of the ninth special operations team, to take over.
