Chapter Twenty-two Uncle

  Several old men 'talked business' while Mo Shaokun was also dragged to the corner by Mo Hongjun for severe interrogation.

  In the face of Mo Hongjun's many years of military career, Mo Shaokun was slightly trembling with fear, and he could only honestly recount his past again.

  Every time he mentions these things, he feels very helpless in his heart. After rebirth, he has long been indifferent to all this, but those who hear it look at him with red eyes and a flattering expression.

  Even Mo Hongjun, this iron-blooded military man known as the Tiger General, was somewhat emotional at this moment.

  "Child, you've had a hard time these years." Mo Hongjun sighed.

  Mo Shaokun couldn't help but smile bitterly, how many times had he heard this sentence? Old Master Tang had said it, Tang Yurou had said it, and now Mo Hongjun was saying it again. He really wasn't trying to win sympathy.

  Mo Hongjun let out a light sigh and said, "In those years, my uncle was also implicated in your grandfather's affairs and was sent to a certain battalion in the northwest to lead militia to build infrastructure. I didn't know about your mother leaving the Tang family until now."

  It seems that he recalled the past days, his eyes were filled with sadness and continued: "I was afraid of implicating your mother, so I didn't contact her for those few years. It wasn't until after the 78 windstorm subsided that I was reassigned back to Kyoto, and it was also at that time that I found out your mother had already left the Tang family."

  Then Mo Hongjun told his story to Mo Shaokun.

  He was originally an orphan, and during the War of Resistance against Japan, Old Mo picked him up unexpectedly in a city-fighting battle when he was only four years old. Since then, Old Mo took him as his adopted son and changed his name to Mo Hongjun.

  Although he was called a foster son, Old Man Mo treated him like his own biological son. This can be seen from the fact that after having a daughter named Mo Hongyue, Old Man Mo no longer had to worry about not having children of his own.

  It can be said that although there is no blood relationship between the two, their feelings are far more than those of ordinary father and son.

  Mo Hongyue was born when Mo Hongjun was already over ten years old. From a young age, he doted on his younger sister, and anyone who dared to bully her would have to endure his boundless anger. It was also because of this that he had the nickname "Mo Big Cannon" from an early age.

  When he returned to Kyoto, he learned that his sister had long since left the Tang family and disappeared into the vast sea of people. His mood can be imagined, he searched for his sister like a madman but to no avail.

  He even rushed to the Tang family and beat Tang Weiguo, and was so bold as to point at Old Man Tang's nose and scold him for being shameless. In order not to be implicated, he even drove his daughter-in-law out of the house.

  At that time, Mo Hongjun did not know that his sister had left the Tang family voluntarily, and the Tang family members, feeling guilty, never explained anything to him.

  Heartbroken, he finally chose to leave Kyoto, for it was filled with his nostalgia for home and memories of loved ones.

  Perhaps because the high-level officials wanted to make up for Mo Lao's injustice in those years, Mo Hongjun's application for transfer from Kyoto was quickly approved, and he was also promoted to a major general rank to serve as a certain unit in the Southwest Military Region.

  In 1979, a neighboring country provoked war on the border, and Mo Hongjun, who had just taken office for half a year, was ordered to lead his troops in a counterattack.

  That one battle established his reputation as a tiger general; he won a local victory with minimal casualties and created a good start for other war zones.

  Immediately after '81 and '84 he led his troops to recover the territories that had been occupied by the enemy, and he himself became a fierce general who made the enemy tremble with fear!

  With these achievements, he was awarded the rank of Major General at the end of 1984 and was transferred to the Southeast Military Region as the commander of a certain group army.

  His tough military quality and solid military theory quickly made the troops he led rank among the best in several army-wide assessments. Therefore, at the end of 1988, he was exceptionally promoted to Major General, and at the end of 1993, he was formally promoted to Lieutenant General while serving as Commander of the Northwest Military Region!

  These years, Mo Hongjun has never given up searching for his sister's whereabouts. Not only him, but the entire Mo family has been making an effort, unfortunately they have no idea that Mo Hongyue had already passed away in 1976.

  Originally, Mo Hongjun should be sitting in a certain camp of the Northwest Military Region commanding a large-scale military exercise, but when he heard this morning that his grandfather's grandson, Mo Hongyue's son, suddenly appeared in Kyoto, he was stunned. He called Tang Baoguo to verify at the first time, and after getting confirmation, he used the military plane for private affairs for the first time with excitement and rushed to Kyoto from the Great Northwest!

  "Uncle, Mom left the Tang family voluntarily at first. I think she didn't contact you probably for the same reason, fearing to drag you down. After all, your own situation was already not good at that time, and she didn't want to make you worry." Mo Shaokun said softly after hearing the story.

  As for whether his mother left the Tang family voluntarily, he may have had doubts before, but after returning to the Tang family, he no longer had any doubts. Tang Weiguo didn't talk much, but through many small details in life, Mo Shaokun could always discover that he was still thinking of his mother.

  Mo Shao Kun didn't believe he would drive his mother out of the house.

  "Hmph! Who knows if the Tang family drove your mother out to protect themselves, these politicians will stop at nothing for their own interests." Mo Hongjun let out a cold snort, this was the difference between military men and politicians, military men were always straightforward and said what they meant, while politicians liked to beat around the bush, as if the more they beat around the bush, the more it seemed like they had a high level of ability.

  "It's been so many years since everything happened, you should also let go." Mo Shaokun said with a bitter smile.

  If Uncle really goes to the end with the Tang family, what should he do if he gets caught in the middle? Although he has no blood relationship with Mo Hongjun, just because of his feelings for the old Mo family, he can call him "Uncle"!

  It seems that he sensed Mo Shaokun's concern, and Mo Hongjun forced a smile: "You don't have to worry, you are you, the Tang family is the Tang family."

  Before Mo Shao Kun could respond, he asked again: "Mo Shao Kun, are you willing to go back to the northwest with your uncle?"

  "Huh? This......" Mo Shaokun was slightly stunned, and then felt a bit awkward. This actually wasn't a difficult choice, but he couldn't say it out loud, afraid of hurting his uncle's feelings.

  "Ah, I knew you wouldn't be willing. Never mind, maybe staying in the Tang family will be better for your future development." Mo Hongjun's eyes seemed a bit downcast, after all, this was the only bloodline of the old Mo family, he had wanted to bring Mo Shaokun with him, unfortunately...

  "Uncle, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean that. I won't go to your place and neither will I stay in Kyoto because I'll be returning to Anping University soon." Mo Shaokun hastily explained.

  "Are you going back to Anping to attend university?" Mo Hongjun looked at him with some surprise.

  "Hmm!" Mo Shaokun nodded slightly.

  "Haha! You little brat, you should know that Zhong'an Province is also one of the five northwestern provinces, right? Alright! Go to Anping and it'll be great! I have an uncle there, I guarantee no one will dare bully you!" Mo Hongjun said with a thump on his chest, this tone was so domineering!

  Mo Shaokun was stunned, how could he have forgotten that Zhong'an Province is also one of the five provinces in the northwest? Although the headquarters of the Northwest Military Region is not located in Zhong'an Province but in the neighboring Ganzhou Province, as long as they are military personnel wearing green uniforms within the scope of the five provinces in the northwest, they all belong to Uncle's jurisdiction!

  For a moment, he even felt dizzy, damn it! His uncle was the commander and his aunt's husband was the provincial party secretary. This is too awesome! He might be the most powerful person in Zhong'an Province's history. No! Even if you look at the whole country, there are probably only a few people who can surpass him.

  Is this a dream? The poor loser from his previous life suddenly turned into a top-notch... This... Is this not a bit too fantastical? Mo Shaokun thought to himself.
