Li Hong saw Yan Bochuan's anger, and he knew in his heart that if he didn't accept the appointment, it would be tantamount to offending the other party.

"The ability to humble himself is really not qualified for such a high position, Chief Xie Yan's understanding."

Immediately, he said something euphemistic and let the other party have a step down.

Of course, as the commander of the theater, Yan Bochuan has to take care of his face and mind, and he can't embarrass Li Hong in person.

Yan Bochuan's promise was not empty talk, the letter of appointment, the donated weapons and equipment, and the list of materials were placed in front of Li Hong.

Seeing that Li Hong was unmoved, Yan Bochuan sighed lightly a few times, and said earnestly: "Li Hong, I know that you are a smart person, since you are a smart person, you must know how to judge the situation and find a backer for yourself." ”

"The position of lieutenant general is vacant, I will keep it for you, if you want to figure it out, you can come to me at any time......"

"Yes, Chief Yan, I understand my humble duties!"

Li Hong picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all, then saluted the other party and walked out of the office.

Out of Yan Bochuan's office, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There are high-ranking officials and Houlu, and anyone will be tempted, but Li Hong will not accept these casually, and he is not a person who forgets his righteousness for the sake of profit.

Li Hong has his own plans in his heart, he doesn't want to be anyone's horse boy and be controlled by others, but he can't easily offend the commanders of the war zone, otherwise he will definitely encounter a lot of troublesome things in the future.

Instead, Li Hong went to Chen Tingxiao's office, ready to propose to his future father-in-law.

"Knock, knock, knock!!"

"Come in!"

Chen Tingxiao's deep voice came from the office.

Li Hong pushed the door and walked up to Chen Tingxiao, raised his hand respectfully and saluted: "Hello Chief of General Staff Chen!" ”

Chen Tingxiao put down the matter at hand, raised his head to look at Li Hong, and asked bluntly: "Li Hong, at the commendation meeting just now, I saw that Chief Yan appreciated you very much, did he promise you any official position when he asked you?" ”

Chen Tingxiao has served in the military for many years and knows the small calculations of local warlord leaders very well.

Li Hong didn't think about it, and replied frankly: "Report to Chief Chen, I dare not hide my humble position, Chief Yan found me and wanted to entrust me with a heavy responsibility, and he gave me the position of lieutenant general of the Jin Sui Army......

"Oh? He wants to promote you to lieutenant general? ”

Chen Tingxiao's expression was a little surprised after hearing this, and suddenly, he smiled meaningfully and said: "Hehe, our Chief Yan, that is well-known for being meticulous in calculations, and he really made a lot of money in order to take you under his command......

"Did you accept it?"

"Report to Chief Chen, I will remember the cultivation and cooperation of you and Chief Wei, and I dare not accept the appointment of Chief Yan." Li Hong said sincerely, showing his attitude.

"Li Hong, you are doing the right thing, it is right not to accept such a high-ranking official." Chen Tingxiao nodded and continued: "If you accept Chief Yan, you will offend more people, not only will you become a person who forgets your righteousness, but in the future, you will not be able to move an inch in the army, and your security regiment will ......."

When Li Hong met Yan Bochuan before, Chen Tingxiao guessed why Chief Yan summoned Li Hong, so he specially reminded Li Hong a few words.

"Chief Xie Chen reminds that the humble duty understands."

Li Hong nodded lightly, and then, he thought for a while, plucked up the courage to say to Chen Tingxiao: "Report to Chief Chen, I came to you for a low position, and I want you to agree to a big matter." ”

Chen Tingxiao is such a smart person, he looked at Li Hong in front of him with a pleasant face, and seemed to guess what Li Hong wanted to say next.

"Li Hong, there are no outsiders here, if there is anything important, you can just say it!"

Seeing that the other party readily agreed, Li Hong straightened up, raised his voice a little, and said solemnly: "Report to Chief Chen, I came to propose marriage to you, I want to marry your daughter Chen Shujun, I hope you can agree to our marriage......

Hearing Li Hong's bold proposal, Chen Tingxiao was not surprised at all.

Li Hong has always been bold, and as a modern time-traveler, even if there is no matchmaker to help him, it is not an unspeakable thing to say directly.

"Li Hong, is your request quite direct, don't drag mud and water like a person who does big things, hehe......"

Chen Tingxiao stared at Li Hong appreciatively, he laughed a few times, and then said to Li Hong with a serious expression: "I have no opinion if you want to marry Xiaojun, now it is the Republic of China, and you pay attention to the freedom of love and marriage, but you have to ask Xiaojun if he agrees." ”

Li Hong proposed to Chen Tingxiao, and the other party readily agreed, in fact, he was very satisfied with Li Hong, the future son-in-law, and did not make anything difficult, nor did he make any other requests.

Ting Chen had inspected Li Hong before, and with Li Hong's ability, he became the son-in-law of their Chen family.

"Chief Chen, did you agree?"

Li Hong looked at Chen Tingxiao in surprise, as if he didn't believe his ears a little, it seemed a little too easy to propose to his father-in-law, right?

At this time, Li Hong wondered very much, modern people propose to marry a daughter-in-law, this mother's family still has to put forward a bunch of requirements and rules, shouldn't it be more cumbersome to take a daughter-in-law in this old society.

However, Li Hong never expected that it would be too simple to marry a daughter-in-law, and the father-in-law did not have any requirements.

"Li Hong, I promised you, what are you still doing here?" Chen Tingxiao looked at Li Hong, who was a little confused, strangely.

Li Hong retracted his thoughts and asked again, "Chief Chen, did you really agree to my proposal?" ”

"Is there any reason why I should not agree to your proposal?" Chen Tingxiao asked Li Hong strangely, and he continued: "Li Hong, I don't have any requirements for you, the future son-in-law, only two points, to serve the country loyally, to expel foreign humiliation, and to cherish my daughter......"

"Yes, Chief Xie Chen......" Li Hong hurriedly changed his words, grinned and said: "Thank you, Dad, thank you Dad, I will definitely remember Dad's words!" ”

Li Hong thanked his father several times in a row, and quickly left his father-in-law's office.

At this moment, he is about to fly in a happy mood, since the old man has agreed, then he Li Hong can marry a daughter-in-law and bid farewell to the hard days of being a single.

With excitement, Li Hong hurriedly drove out of the theater headquarters on a three-wheeled motorcycle.

"You don't have to follow, you go back to the station first, and immediately inform the brothers that Lao Tzu is going to marry a daughter-in-law, and let them prepare arrangements for Lao Tzu!"

"Yes, !! group"

Under Li Hong's instructions, the guards drove the car back to the security regiment station.

Out of the headquarters, Li Hong rushed to the army hospital in the war zone to find Chen Shujun as quickly as possible.

The army hospital in the theater of operations is not far from the headquarters, only more than twenty kilometers......
