On December 10, in liberation army entering into in southwestern “rumble” sound, in chengdu, sichuan, yunnan Chiang kai-shek obtain intelligence says the LuHan atricle will uprising. The ruled China for more than 20 years of fierce, and finally a presentiment situation, and hurried to the sinister Taiwan, henceforth body old island.
On December 25, Chiang kai-shek in Taiwan &asce Bess culvert upstairs wrote: “in the past year, party, political, economic, military and diplomatic, education complete failure and despair yi.”
Fly to the United States on the way, LiYouLin sitting silently father’s rear, pay close attention to the father’s movements. Looking at burnout, the father of LiYouLin heart throbbing. He already has a year haven’t seen his father, who had made the Japanese aggressors think the fearsome rediscovered illustrious fights suddenly wrinkle, languish.
Remember the last time with his wife and children just home, father, director HangYing pre-vice beiping everywhere flying or sky day flag. But since then, hurricane swept, king of judah, ChengTou transform the earth-shaking flag. In this special historical period, the father is historical pushed the national government vice President, acting President position. Military defeat, political blow, regime of slip, as the special period of “king”, li tsung-jen mind should how taste?
Although LiYouLin on political always not interested, but his mental clear: the kuomintang in mainland failed, Chiang kai-shek failed, his father also failed.
He wishes to father can steady a nap. Because his true feeling, on the officialdom, battlefield nba-leading for decades, “Hamilton son” never fierce. In the past, son of heart, no matter more urgent, environment, difficult to bad again big, have failed to let father so upset, so depressed, so pain. Now, father really like frost dozen leaves – faded.
Li tsung-jen, eyes closed, saying nothing, sit quietly in the cabin, and thoughts are like plane waves in the Pacific below tumbling, in pentium, Shouting.
Plane dived into the thick clouds, violent shock up, li tsung-jen forehead leaked out cold sweat.
To see his father ChangXuDuanTan and not natural look, LiYouLin gather together to go forward, with guilin words whispered, “dad, you still quietly rest, to the United States is still a long way off.”
Li tsung-jen and speechless.
“Dad, you should take medicine.” LiYouLin and boiled water and some pills, pass from her to him.
Li zhi voice or not, after taking this medicine, then a on the seat. The whole trip, li tsung-jen and almost didn’t open your mouth over their eyes, nor talk.
LiYouLin heart though very anxious, but also don’t want at this time and father say what. Now and then he looked in body and mind extremely tired father, see father silently leaning on seat, small body has been shrinkage in that one soldier coat inside, he suddenly cold father from your heart.
See acting President li fatigue, decadent expression, and our mood is bad, the plane dropped by, New York airport is coming. When li tsung-jen sudden dozen have a spirit, he drank several saliva, straightened dress, alight appeared in front of everyone.
Just or a pair of listless appearance, but now he was a changed man, like LiYouLin heart muttered: being a leader live much too tired!
The plane finally landed, what the outsiders. Although the prince of the kingdom is defeated, but after all he is acting President of the national government and Chiang kai-shek, he hasn’t arrived last showdown degree, Taiwan’s kuomintang government and the United States and foreign relations, so the U.S. state department commissioner to the airport to meet, the national government ambassador to the UN chief representative GuWeiJun and JiangTing Fu came, too.
Political figures and social celebrities, journalists, welcome the slogan, the small flags waving, and scarlet carpet, thatis grand spectacle.
LiYouLin on this occasion felt embarrassed go off the plane ramp, he alone quietly walked away from the side.
LiYouLin later deemed, father failed at the northern foot of resistance, old age, return to the motherland, this is his life go to three steps to play chess.
