A Dream in Jinling Chapter 386 Some Undercurrents (9)

Next chapter

Qi Rui sorted out the military appearance once, felt dissatisfied, and sorted it out again. Then he felt dissatisfied again, and he didn't know where to tidy up, so he simply asked the guards to help him sort it out. The guard could only pull some uneven spots, but he could see that he really couldn't find anything in the whole outfit that had to be tidied up.

"Director Qi, I think it's completely okay." The guard said. Because Qi Rui is still in the war zone, his guard is still the same as before, but in recent months, his title has changed from chief of staff to director of the abbreviation of "department head".

Qi Rui nodded slightly, but did not respond. He knew perfectly well that his anxiety at this time was not about his clothes, but about seeing his father in a moment. So Qi Rui originally thought that "I should think this thing is funny", he only left home after graduating from high school, and so far in his life, Qi Rui has lived with his father Wei Ze for more than half of his time. The last time the father and son met was only a little more than a year, and it was difficult for Qi Rui to understand that he didn't have the slightest feeling from his previous home.

Of course, no matter what Qi Rui thinks, he can only wait at this time. When Weeser met with the leaders of the troops, it was an overall meeting, and the policy for the whole was announced at the meeting. After that, the reports of various departments involve the internal secrets of each department. As the head of the training department, Qi Rui certainly knows a lot about the front-line combat department, but this does not mean that Qi Rui can go to the meeting of the front-line combat department with great arrogance.

"Director Qi, although I have long thought that you are very tall. But I really didn't think you were the crown prince. Li Yannian, who was waiting next to him, threw down his cigarette butt and plucked up the courage to say to Qi Rui.

Qi Rui smiled bitterly, he could think that he would indeed have to face a lot of problems in the future, but he didn't expect to be so straightforward when he encountered it for the first time. With a bitter smile, Qi Rui replied: "What prince, don't talk nonsense." There is no such position in our system. ”

Li Yannian didn't expect Qi Rui to answer like this, he continued to ask with some puzzlement: "Director Qi." You're not the eldest in the family? ”

Qi Rui was amused, he shook his head helplessly, and then said: "I am the eldest among the brothers and sisters in the family, but our country does not have the position of prince." If you have an accident, my father is Wei Ze...... Chairman of the Military Commission, I don't think I told everyone before, of course everyone will be surprised. But don't call the prince like that, it will make people think wrongly. ”

"What wrong thoughts can you have? Don't you think that the position of the governor will be handed over to you in the future? Li Yannian didn't agree with Qi Rui's words, but Qi Rui could hear that there was a feeling of jealousy in Li Yannian's voice.

If it was Qi Rui before, he would think that this jealousy was simply inexplicable. However, now Qi Rui will never think like this again, the war provides a lot of promotion opportunities for soldiers, but these opportunities are not endless. For example, Li Yannian, who participated in the intermediate class training with Qi Rui more than two years ago, had good grades and was also a major when he graduated. And Qi Rui is already a lieutenant colonel because he put forward a thesis on motorized infantry.

In the subsequent war and military work, Qi Rui was promoted to the third rank and became a major general. And Li Yannian was promoted two levels and became a colonel. In peacetime, it is impossible to upgrade two levels more than one year a year, but in wartime this kind of thing becomes normal. But what Li Yannian can see is probably not those classmates who have not been promoted because they did not participate in the war. Instead, Qi Rui, who also participated in the intermediate class and participated in the North American War, but his military rank was two levels higher than Li Yannian.

What's more, Li Yannian actually said what was in his heart. Li Yannian can also be regarded as a highly valued officer, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to major general or lieutenant general. But for Li Yannian, he will never have the opportunity to take over the class of Governor Wei Zedu in his life, stand at the peak of the power of the Chinese Dynasty, and put the supreme crown on his head. And Qi Rui knows very well that this has nothing to do with ability and hard work, Li Yannian really doesn't have this kind of opportunity, this kind of opportunity is probably destined to be tailor-made for Qi Rui.

Just when Qi Rui didn't know what to say, Li Yannian probably noticed his mood. I saw him shake his head violently for a while, and then said, "Forget it, this is my own thinking too much." Director Qi, don't forget your heart. ”

Qi Rui felt uncomfortable in his heart when he said this, what does it mean to think too much, what does it mean to forget in his heart. Li Yannian is such a expression, can Qi Rui not go to his heart. Li Yannian, this guy is usually very good at doing things and being a good person, why can't he do it now?

However, this unhappy thought lasted for more than ten seconds, and Qi Rui suddenly felt that he was too stingy. What Li Yannian said is the normal reaction of normal people, what does Qi Rui feel uncomfortable about? Since Qi Rui can be unhappy, why can't Li Yannian be uncomfortable?

Qi Rui remembered what his father often said, "Let me tell you, what dragon son and phoenix grandson, congenital nobility are all, and they are all outright lies." The Manchus said that they were the dragons and phoenixes, and then the dragons and phoenixes were dragged to the river like dogs and killed. ”

Dad's words calmed down Qi Rui like a cooling agent, he sorted out his feelings, and said to Li Yannian: "Lao Li, we are classmates and comrades-in-arms. When we are together, we either work, or after the work is over, we eat, drink, chat and play games together. When we work, we only talk about work. After the work is over, we are still friends. That's how I see you, and I hope you don't think so much. You say it's good or not. ”

"Alas!" Li Yannian first sighed, and then sighed with a sigh. It can be seen that Qi Rui is not the only one who wants to use reason to suppress love. After a while, Li Yannian's attitude finally returned to his previous appearance. He opened his mouth with a long sigh, and then his voice became clearer, "I know that Fang Cai is right, I knew that you were from a good background, but I didn't expect you to be born so well." But Qi Rui, I actually didn't think you did much better than me at the beginning, but if you think about it carefully, you are better than me in every place. Being a major general really doesn't mean that someone has to care for you in particular. Anyway, ......, anyway, let's be good colleagues in the future. ”

The last sentence still shows Li Yannian's current limit, and it can be seen that this guy is really stimulated a lot.

Qi Rui can now understand Li Yannian's mood very well, every time he thinks of Chu Xue's husband, he is also in such an indescribably sour mood. Qi Rui believes that Chu Xue's husband will not have Qi Rui's background in any case, nor will he have Qi Rui's status today. More than a year ago, Qi Rui's promotion was fierce enough. But in the next year, after Qi Rui completes his training, he may be the commander or political commissar of an army in the war of 1891, and may even serve as chief of staff or other positions in the headquarters of the group army.

According to the current war situation, in 1892, when Qi Rui was 30 years old, it was very likely that he would accumulate merit and become a lieutenant general. Becoming a lieutenant general at such an age is probably only comparable to the founding fathers of the founding era. Moreover, most of the founding fathers did not command more than 200,000 troops, and in China at that time, there was no war worth gathering more than 200,000 field troops. And the end of the life of the founding father is probably not as far-reaching as Qi Rui.

But such a Qi Rui could only look at Chu Xue's husband who Qi Rui didn't know who it was. The love of envy, jealousy and hatred is very familiar to Qi Rui. So he can fully understand how others felt when they knew that Qi Rui's father was Wei Ze, and if he had to evaluate, Qi Rui could probably only use the sentence "This is all fate" to make a summary.

Since Qi Rui himself has always been obsessed, he feels that Li Yannian's appearance is normal, and Li Yannian is a good comrade. So Qi Rui stretched out his hand to Li Yannian, "Lao Li, don't think about it so much." ”

Li Yannian didn't say much, and shook hands with Qi Rui tightly when he came up. Looking at what he meant, he had the urge to grasp Qi Rui's hand to the point of almost shattering. However, when the two really shook hands, Li Yannian didn't use any force. He just slapped Qi Rui on the shoulder several times with his left hand.

In the motorized infantry department, Major General Qi Rui is the head of the department, and Colonel Li Yannian is the deputy director. The other colonels, the lieutenant colonel, finally returned to normal after seeing that Deputy Director Li genuinely showed human jealousy. Some comrades, who were also jealous, came up to shake hands with Qi Rui according to Li Yannian's situation. to show that everyone will never succumb to the backbone of the powerful. Anyway, they are all young people, and although this kind of love is exciting, it is nothing special.

The other part was originally going to shoot Qi Rui's ass, which was a little embarrassing. Of course, there are also those who immediately come up to shake hands to show goodwill, but they know that they can't offend people, at least when the prince has no intention of fighting the jealous, they are also unwilling to offend a powerful person like Li Yannian. Besides, the days are long, and there are many opportunities to make meritorious contributions to the prince. Why rush for a while?

Therefore, more than a dozen school officers finally established a military academy system with Qi Rui as the core in more than half an hour, although this organizational structure is no different from before Qi Rui's identity was exposed, but the connotation is very different.

After such a toss, time flies in everyone's feelings. After everyone stood up again, Qi Rui said: "We will report to the governor in a while, everyone hurry up and prepare their work experience, as well as questions and requests to be raised." When the time comes, if you forget it, you won't have a chance to let everyone go to see the governor again. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone took out the small notebook they had with them and read the content they had prepared again. Although Li Yannian wanted to say, "If you can't see the governor, won't you still be there?" However, at this time, Li Yannian's love was no longer so excited, he actually knew that Qi Rui had been with the army for more than a year, and he had no time to meet the governor alone. And in terms of overall treatment, I can't see any special treatment for Qi Rui.

You know, any promotion is a public announcement of merit. Qi Rui's exploits were recognized by the comrades of the army at that time. Thinking of this, Li Yannian sighed silently in the depths of his heart, and finally took his mind back and put it down on work.
