Chapter 147: The Proposal of the Chinese Military Delegation
Long You and the people waiting in the lounge exchanged pleasantries, and everyone who was also a soldier didn't have too many polite words, and after briefly introducing each other, Long You followed behind Colonel Hua Guo and walked towards the banquet hall.
Because it was a private banquet, Zhang Guoqing arranged the dining place in an ordinary-sized box, and in addition to him and the army colonel, there was also an ambassador from the embassy to accompany him.
Long You heard the translator's introduction for a while, and it turned out that a burly middle-aged man in front of him was the deputy chief of general staff, Zhang Guoqing, and the slightly weaker man with glasses next to him was Geng Jinshan, the Chinese ambassador to Russia.
"Mr. Modell, I have admired the name for a long time......" Zhang Guoqing saw Long You walk in, stood up from the main seat without taking a shelf, and enthusiastically opened his arms to give a warm embrace of Western etiquette.
Long You looked at their momentum, also hugged them with open arms, and responded heartily in Chinese: "Hello, friends of Huaguo, welcome to Moscow. ”
As soon as Longyou's authentic Chinese language came out, the faces of the Chinese generals present froze in shock, and they couldn't help but think in their hearts whether Moder, the king of soldiers, often performed tasks in China.
"Moder, hello, I'm Zhang Guoqing, the deputy head of the delegation this time, I invited you to dinner today to thank you for your righteous words to Chinese businessmen last time, and I heard that it had a small impact on you later because of this matter...... We also regret this. If it's not for everyone's sensitive identity, we are actually willing to make some compensation to you. ”
After Zhang Guoqing said this, he naturally glanced at Geng Jinshan beside him......
"Yes, Mr. Modell, I have been in Moscow for several years, and I can often hear the news of your courage and meritorious service to the country.
Long You looked at the two of them so attentively, and he was even more suspicious in his heart. These two people are much higher than themselves in terms of position and rank, not to mention that everyone does not command each other, so they praise each other, I am afraid that they will inevitably ask for something.
"Hehe, two leaders, you have won the award, this is what I should do as a soldier. As the host, I didn't take the initiative to invite you to dinner, but let you break the bank, which is really ashamed. ”
"Hehe, where are the words, they are all friends, what do you care about when you have wine and meat to eat, don't you say?"
Zhang Guoqing boldly opened a bottle of special Moutai they brought from China, poured three cups with two transparent large cups, put them in the middle of the table, and said with a big grin: "We met for the first time, but as soon as I saw it, I knew that you were a cheerful person, so let's have a toast first." ”
Long You picked up the wine glass and touched a glass with them, and drank it unequivocally in one go.
"Okay, refreshed!" Zhang Guoqing knew that the Russians were all good at this, and specially airlifted several boxes of special wine of this height.
Although Long You will not get drunk, the taste of this wine is very appetizing to him, and he praised it at the moment and said: "Good wine, enjoyable...... There is no more, and then full. ”
"Huh...... Yes, yes, let's not get drunk today...... Here, pour the wine. ”
Zhang Guoqing saw that Long You was drinking happily, and a happy smile appeared on his face, and he instructed the people around him to quickly pour the wine full.
"Come again!" Long You picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one sip, the mellow smell of wine flowed down his throat and into his stomach, making him feel warm in his body.
"Good wine, this thing just tastes better than vodka." Longyou Da Ma Jin Dao sat on the seat, pursed his lips, and savored the unique aroma of wine.
"Hehe, if you like it, we'll have a lot of it later, you take a box and go."
"Ha Luha, this ...... You're welcome. ”
……
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere between the banquets became more and more enthusiastic, Zhang Guoqing's face was flushed, and he seemed very satisfied with Long You's bold personality. He and the ambassador looked at each other again, and hesitated to ask a question.
"Mr. Modell, what do you think of the quality of our special forces?"
Long You's heart moved, and he knew that the main topic of the Dao was about to come out.
"General, to be honest, I haven't seen your country's special forces, so it's hard to talk nonsense."
Long You picked up a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth, as if he didn't care about their questions.
"Then I don't know if it's inconvenient for you to train our special forces? We appreciate your personal qualities, Mr. Modell, and we look forward to your guidance. ”
Training special forces? It turned out that it was for this, and I thought there was something else great about it.
Long You put down his knife and fork and said to them seriously: "This matter still has to be agreed by the above, I personally don't want to express my opinion casually." ”
Zhang Guoqing poured another full cup for Long You, nodded and said: "This is natural, we won't make it difficult for you, and today I also want to ask you about your personal wishes first, otherwise we rashly opened our mouths to make this request, and it seems that we don't respect you very much." ”
"Hehe, I'm a soldier, the above said yes, I can, if the above doesn't agree, then I can't do anything...... Hehe, that's my personal opinion. ”
"Uh-huh, understood, understood...... Come, let's have another drink. After Zhang Guoqing understood Long You's true intentions, he was very happy. They are going to spend a lot of money here this time, and the Russian side is aiming for this hard currency of real money, and it is not right to block it.
A few people talked about the matter, and they didn't have the heart to continue to stay, Long You looked at the time, and planned to go back to accompany the two girls early, and after killing another bottle, he said goodbye to them.
"Hehe, I hope that next time Mr. Moder can come to Huaguo to have a look, whether it is a trip or a business trip, we will be warm and hospitable, so that you can return with pleasure." Zhang Guoqing stretched out his hand and shook hands with Long You, and boldly sent out an invitation.
"Okay, it is also my wish to go to the great country of China to see, I hope this meeting can be a complete success, I still have something at home, I can't accompany the two leaders more, forgive me."
After speaking, Long You hugged them one by one before leaving.
After Long You left the box with vigorous steps, several people from the Chinese delegation looked at the dozen or so empty wine bottles placed under the table, and shook their heads in a little staggering.
"This Moder's physicality is simply amazing. The three of us drank, but I was afraid that he would drink more than half of it alone, six or seven bottles of fifty-three degree liquor, and he didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of food. Zhang Guoqing endured it for a long time, this relaxation, the smell of wine rushed to the top of his head, staggered, and almost fell.
"Chief ......" The colonel next to him hurriedly helped him.
"It's okay, alas, it's troublesome when I'm old, although I couldn't compare to him before, but I won't be so embarrassed."
