Chapter Thirty-Eight: Take the Initiative
The first battle out of the mountain was not fought well, so that Peng Shu, the commander of the Central and Northern Coalition Army, blamed himself, and in the evening, in the milk tea shop of the stronghold of the Central and Northern Coalition Army, he offered to take responsibility and asked for demotion.
After Deng Liang listened to the battle process he described, his face sank, and his fiery temper, which had been suppressed for many years, was about to explode again. But Deng Liang didn't get angry after all, he just had a gloomy face: "What I'm going to say next is not for Peng Shu alone, but for all of us." β
"Why were we defeated by the Loyalty Gang's plot, and why have we been in a slump since then, is it really just because Liu Xingzhou is too calculating? Doesn't it have anything to do with us at all? Think about it! Think about it! Think about why the Loyalty Gang was able to become the head of the Three Emperors, and why the alliance was able to emerge in a short period of time. β
"Brothers, we have no tactics and no strategy! We still use the old methods of a few years ago, and we still cling to the shortcomings, or we only talk about numbers and individual force, and do not talk about overall tactics, and that's why we were eliminated, and that's why we fought a bad and confused battle in the first battle out of the mountain!" Deng Liang sighed. "Our Central and Northern Alliance Army is all the original team of those who were back then, so how much we could fight back then is still more capable of fighting, how bad the strategy was back then, and how bad it is now!"
"This is not just a problem of one or two people, we all have problems, we should all think about it, and we should all understand a truth: if you don't improve, you will only be eliminated again!" Deng Liang finished speaking, and strode away.
He Hai also spoke: "Deng Liang's words are actually true, I hope everyone thinks about why the car overturned in the first battle." I also want to tell my brothers that now we are an alliance, I am your eldest brother, and Deng Liang is also your eldest brother, don't have an opinion on his words, or feel that he was our opponent in the past, and be unconvinced, he is right, we should listen. Okay, let's go back first. β
The summary meeting of the Sino-Northern Coalition Army made the generals of the coalition army feel so uncomfortable, and these veterans who were powerful in the past have now been cleaned up by those who came and went, can they feel better in their hearts? This sword ghost, that immortal stick, has a louder name than another, but watching the enemy come and go freely, can they have a light on their faces? Every general has decided that in the next battle, they must turn over, they must take revenge, and they must let the son of the Three Emperors know that the tiger falls in Pingyang, or the tiger!
The generals decided that they must use all their resources to arrange a real battle, take the initiative to attack, and break the bones of the Three Emperors!
It is not only the Central and Northern Coalition forces that are ready to take the initiative.
Zhu Chong Zhang Lin's battle in the car detainment field shook the Three Emperors, among which Zhao Kenan and Guo Beichen were both captured alive, which made Sun Zitong's face dull, and the angry guy kept trembling and sighing. He was not convinced, he also had to take the initiative to attack, give the alliance a little color, and let them not take themselves too seriously! It just so happened that the midterm exam was also over, and he could concentrate more troops, and Sun Tzu decided to start a big war.
In addition to them, there are also people who are going to take the initiative.
"Caiwei, how are you doing?"
"Or is that still the case, brother?"
"It's good, everything is good at school," said the other side of the phone, "How was the midterm exam?"
"It's not that difficult," Liu Caiwei smiled.
"And what about the boy you like?"
"Well," Liu Caiwei smiled shyly, "He seems to have done well in the exam, after all, he is the first in the whole grade."
"After the exam, don't you ask someone to go out for a walk?"
"I want to, too, but it's not good to keep asking people out...... Called it once before"
"If he can come out with you, it means that he doesn't hate you, seize the opportunity and take the initiative, you will definitely be able to. In this kind of thing, girls can be bold. β
"Hmph, then I'll listen to your brother"
"Haha, don't delay you and your boyfriend, bye-bye" said the other side and hung up the phone.
Liu Caiwei put down the phone, clicked on QQ, looked at the contact at the top, clicked on it and sent a message: "Are you free tomorrow?"
"Available" opposite the second back.
"The midterm exam is over, why don't you get together?" we have opened a good hot pot restaurant in our town" Liu Caiwei thought about it, and was afraid that it would be very abrupt to ask Wang Xi to go out alone, so for the sake of insurance, she still took out the "shield" of "big guy".
"Okay, I'll ask the others. Wang Xi replied.
"Mu Xinxin and Mo Xuan are available," Liu Caiwei messaged.
"On my side, Cai He, Zhang Lin and Zhu Chong are free, by the way, what about Li Yue?"
"She's mysterious now, it's hard to find, and she often says that she's not available, and I don't know what's going on."
"It's okay, we'll just have time," Wang Xi replied.
"Then we'll meet at the gate of the riverside garden at half past eleven tomorrow."
"Okay, it's a word"
You ask why Zhao Lin is not here? First, don't bother some guys in pairs, and second, how can going out to eat be interesting to go to an Internet cafΓ© and Xiaowei to open a black, haha.
The next day, Wang Xi and the four boys gathered at the gate of the riverside garden early, and Liu Caiwei was also there, as soon as she saw Wang Xi, Liu Caiwei waved her hand happily.
"You're wearing the same as last time," Wang Xi whispered to Liu Caiwei.
Liu Caiwei nodded: "Because we are so compatible" After speaking, she lowered her head again.
Wang Xi took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention and quietly touched Liu Caiwei's head.
"Hey, what are you doing!" Liu Caiwei was taken aback.
"Just touching your head. My family used to have a cat, a very cute British short, and then gave it away, and every time I thought it was cute, I would pet its head. β
"That's a cat! It's not me! And I'm not fat!" Liu Caiwei protested, nicknamed Blue Fat, where is Liu Caiwei fat?" "Touch again, touch again, I'll scratch you with my paws, hum" Wang Xi listened, just smiled.
Mu Xinxin and Cai He seem to be making progress very quickly, as soon as they meet, they chatted non-stop, Mu Xinxin was teased by Cai He from time to time and laughed, and I don't know what jokes Cai He told. Compared with them, Zhang Lin and Mo Xuan are much slower, and the two of them are like this every time: when they meet, they just smile and don't speak, and then one of them suddenly breaks the silence, and then the two of them can't stop talking.
The most devastating thing is Zhu Chong, where did Li Yue go? If Zhao Lin was here, he would not be so embarrassed, and he would still be able to gag with Zhao Lin. Now Zhu Chong can only take out his mobile phone alone, look at the news on QQ that no one has replied to now, and sigh in frustration.
"Where the hell are you, why don't you reply to a message?" Zhu Chong said to himself.
Wang Xi sensed Zhu Chong's loss, but he couldn't do anything.
Li Yue's good friends don't know where Li Yue has gone, let alone Wang Xi, a boy who doesn't have much contact with Li Yue? The only thing he can do is to liven up the atmosphere when he eats hot pot later, and don't let Zhu Chong be so depressed again.
After ordering something at the hot pot restaurant, everyone began to discuss the midterm exam again, and everyone here is basically a top student, and they are not worried about the existence of this kind of problem. But the topic didn't seem to be interesting, and Wang Xi found that Zhu Chong was just sitting there playing with his phone.
Wang Xi was a little dizzy, and he glanced at Liu Caiwei.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if I understand it, Liu Caiwei glanced at him, and suddenly said, "Everyone, do you want to go out to play during the May Day holiday?"
Everyone started talking about it.
"Where are you going to play, are you going to climb the mountain on Qipan Mountain?" Zhu Chong was the first to ask.
"If you go out to play, traffic is a big problem, and the traffic jam in our city is not serious for a day or two, especially on holidays, so it's okay" Cai He shrugged.
"Go out, go to places of interest, or tourist attractions, culture or leisure?" asked.
"I think it's good to go anywhere, as long as we prepare the travel essentials, the traffic jam is jammed, it's a big deal that we have a picnic on the highway" Mo Xuan is the most positive and optimistic.
Liu Caiwei spoke: "How about going to the beach to play? β
There is no sea in Guancheng, and if you want to see the sea, you have to go to Yueshui City or Lianshan City next to Guancheng. Yueshui City is relatively backward, the development of tourism is poor, the infrastructure such as accommodation, transportation and other infrastructure is not perfect, and the capacity of reception services is very limited. Lianshan City is the second largest city in the province, second only to the provincial capital Jiangcheng City, this modern and prosperous metropolis is not only high-rise buildings, as the famous port of the Republic, its coast is not only always busy docks and cargo ships coming and going, in Lianshan City's only coastal Baotian District also has a lot of charming beaches and blue waters, so that visitors linger.
"From Qinghu Town to Baotian District, it only takes two hours by car, and three days on May Day, so we can go there for two days and one night," Liu Caiwei said, and these "work machines" with amazing efficiency are not worried about not finishing their homework at all.
Wang Xi immediately raised his hands in agreement.
Cai He and Mu Xinxin also agreed: "But we think it's better to travel poorly, after all, we are all students, and we can save if we can."
"If you spend less money and don't play well, it's so boring, and you have wronged yourself. Zhu Chong thought of Li Yue, Li Yue has always liked the seaside, and her QQ avatar is her photo at the beach. He really wanted to go for a walk on the beach with Li Yue, watch the sunrise and sunset, and listen to the waves lapping and the sea breeze blowing...... Therefore, you must not treat Li Yue badly because you feel sorry for money!
Mo Xuan waved her hand: "Not necessarily, if you are traveling, we can do it ourselves, find interesting and interesting things by ourselves, we can experience more, this kind of simple happiness is the most real happiness." β
Zhang Lin added in due course: "Besides, you will be happy with the person you like, whether he is rich or poor."
Mo Xuan turned her head suddenly: "You, the person you like?"
Zhang Lin smiled shyly: "I, I'll make an analogy." β
"You, you're stammering"
"You, so are you?"
When Liu Caiwei saw them, she couldn't help laughing, and just as the things were also brought up, Zhang Lin hurriedly went to take the things and throw them into the pot to hide the embarrassment just now. Cai He and Mu Xinxin glanced at each other, and they both showed a meaningful smile.
"If you go to the beach, there is a homestay to stay," Wang Xi asked.
"Yes, I know a very good homestay," Liu Caiwei said.
"Then when the time comes, we must go out on May Day and have a good time!" Cai He snapped his fingers, "It just so happens that Liu Caiwei is familiar with it, so let her lead the way!" Mu Xinxin and I are responsible for playing along." β
Mu Xinxin didn't forget to sell a cute: "Sister Caiwei, love you"
Liu Caiwei was speechless by the two of them: "Haha, let's eat first, talk while eating." But if you are so relieved of me, I will command the whole tour, you must obey the command."
"No problem, obey the command!" Wang Xi was the first to say.
"Oh, the commander-in-chief of the alliance actually wants someone else to command" Cai He didn't forget to take Wang Xi to open the way.
"The general director of the alliance is also guided by others every day," Wang Xi fought back not to be outdone.
Zhang Lin laughed: "Wang Xi, you are like this, be careful and your wife will be strict in the future." β
"Go, go, what kind of wife is strict? That's love!" As soon as the words came out, Wang Xi immediately realized that he had lost his words, "You-damn it, eat and eat, you are not allowed to speak" Wang Xi said as he picked up the food and put it in Zhang Lin's bowl.
"Don't, you're making a joke and not letting others tell the truth," Cai He continued to complain.
"You, give me something to eat too, don't speak" Wang Xi glanced at Cai He helplessly, and hurriedly put something in his bowl.
Cai He and Zhang Lin smiled heartily: Wang Xi was fooled by them into becoming a "waiter" in this way.
"Do you think this little thing can gag our mouths?" Zhang Lin continued to challenge Wang Xi.
Wang Xi wasn't fooled this time, he just glanced at him: "Come on, if you eat again, other girls will have nothing to eat" Wang Xi said while clipping something into Liu Caiwei's bowl.
"Hahahaha, no matter what, our classmate Wang is a living Lei Feng" Cai He said, the whole table laughed, Zhu Chong also swept away the depression just now, patted his legs and laughed.
Wang Xi glanced at Cai He, you kid, if you don't make Zhu Chong feel better, I'm not done with you!
The dinner ended in laughter, and on the way back, everyone was talking and laughing, although Zhu Chong could still see that he was unhappy because Li Yue didn't reply to him, but his state was much better than when he first came.
"I remember, I have to change to a new folder, I'll go to the town center to buy a folder first," Liu Caiwei said. The center of town is to the west, and the place where they live is to the east.
"I'll go with you" Wang Xi said, I don't know why, he just wanted to stay with Liu Caiwei.
"Hmm" Liu Caiwei nodded at him, blinked, and the two walked in the direction of the center of the town.
On the way, Liu Caiwei suddenly asked Wang Xi: "Have you seen the sea?"
"I've seen it, what's wrong?" Wang Xi was a little strange, "Oh, but our city is inland, maybe Cai He or Zhang Lin haven't seen the sea, this is normal." β
"Do you like the sea?" asked Liu Caiwei again, while turning her face sideways to secretly pay attention to Wang Xi's expression.
"I like the sea, in my opinion, the sea view is the most beautiful landscape in the world," Wang Xi smiled.
"Is the most beautiful landscape?" Liu Caiwei looked at the bridge they were walking, and under the bridge was the calm Qingjiang River, thoughtfully. "More beautiful than Qingjiang?"
"Yes, how can the river and the sea be compared? Of course, the sea is more beautiful. Wang Xi said.
It is necessary to take the initiative, and at the same time, it is also necessary to learn to analyze specific problems. This was taught to him by Liu Caiwei's cousin.
Liu Caiwei suddenly turned around and looked straight at Wang Xi.
"What's wrong?" Wang Xi was even more confused.
"You should have a good memory, right?" asked Liu Caiwei, looking into his eyes.
"Hmm...... Okay, if it's something very important, I'll remember it very wellβwhat happened to you today?" Wang Xi felt completely confused, he had never seen Liu Caiwei like this.
"At one o'clock in the morning on the day I went to the beach, remember to come out, go to the beach, I have something to say to you. β
"Is there anything you can't say now?" Wang Xi was puzzled, "you want to go to the beach and say?"
"Well, I can only go to the beach. Liu Caiwei paused, and added, "Because of you." β
Looking at the dazed Wang Xi, Liu Caiwei smiled: "It's okay, keep walking." Just what I said to you today, don't tell anyone, this is a conversation between the two of us. After speaking, Liu Caiwei stopped talking.
The two were silent all the way, one was at a loss, and the other was like a mirror, walking side by side on the bridge together. Under the bridge, the breeze of late spring blows the ripples of the Qingjiang River.
