225 The Birth of a Legend
Tom guessed correctly, that night, Li Mu hosted a banquet for Tom and Jerry at his residence. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Regarding Li Mu's restaurant, this is already a well-known name in the entire military camp, not only because Li Mu's family has several beautiful and well-trained maids, but also because Li Mu has a cook who claims to be a cook who specializes in cooking for the princes of the Qing Empire.
This is just a rumor, Chu Xue didn't cook in the palace at the beginning, Lao Yan is the chef of the Eight Classics, and Chu Xue is just a little superficial.
That's enough, Americans in the 21st century still need to use measuring cups and scales to cook, not to mention the Americans in this year, it's not too much to describe it as just getting rid of Ru Mao and drinking blood, as long as they can cook things, and the various seasonings are not too biased, they feel very good, if they strive for perfection, then they will be full of praise, as for the level of Hatsuyuki's cooking, well, in Benjamin's words, much more clever than his cook.
Benjamin is from a family, and the chef in the family is also professional, even Benjamin sighs to himself, and the cooking level of Americans can be imagined.
So for ordinary people, it is definitely a great honor to be invited by Li Mu.
This is not only because of the food and beautiful women, but also because of the members who eat together, you must know that Li Mu eats with Mahan and Benjamin every day, and can sit at the same table with such a big man, which is enough for these big soldiers to go back and brag to their companions for a long time.
There was also a special guest in the evening, Yan Hu, who had just returned from the front.
It's only been a week, and the rank of second lieutenant on Yan Hu's collar has been changed to major, and the speed of promotion is astonishing.
This is really not Li Mu's special care, because even Li Mu doesn't know why Yan Hu was promoted so quickly.
"General George didn't take special care of me, to be exact, it was Santiago's order, probably because Santiago needed a hero, and I happened to have some combat achievements, so I was promoted so quickly." Yan Hu explained it this way.
"So what did you do? Tiger. "Benjamin was the most curious.
Li Mu was also curious, and even put down the knife and fork in his hand, Ma Han was indifferent, and continued to bury his head in dealing with the fried bananas on the plate in front of him, as for Tom and Jerry, these two were even more curious, and their eyes looking at Yan Hu were full of doubts about the PY transaction.
"On the second day of the battle, the Spaniards attacked fiercely, General George took the lead in the front, I was sent to a salient on the left flank, and that day I killed 63 Spaniards in one afternoon using my rifle—" Yan Hu's account is simple, but the content is a little thrilling.
"63-" Benjamin's knife fell on the plate with a thud.
Mahan looked up in surprise, still holding the fried banana in his mouth that he didn't have time to swallow.
"God, you're a tiger—" Tom muttered to himself.
Jerry nodded repeatedly, losing his ability to speak at all.
"For the next three days, I went to the front every day, and by the time I came back yesterday, my battle was 193 men—" Yan Hu continued, without being shocked.
"God, 193! Have you the Spaniards alone? Benjamin held the knife firmly in his hand this time, and the knuckles on his fingers were a little white.
"I know of a man who was promoted from second lieutenant to major for seven years, and that's because of the outbreak of war—" Tom looked feverishly at the rank mark on Yan Hu's collar.
"Keep up the good work and you'll become a legend!" After Li Mu finished speaking, he raised the wine glass in his hand: "For Tiger!" ”
"For Tiger!" This time, even Mahan had to respond.
Mahan: They are lucky because they have the opportunity to witness a legend being born.
Li Mu knew that there was a ranking of the top ten snipers in the 21st century, but that was all during the Second World War, and there was no ranking because there was no record earlier.
In fact, in the nineteenth century, it was easy to surpass the sniper record of the Second World War, because in this era, the infantry did not have the tactics of the skirmish line when attacking, and the infantry attack was a group charge, wearing bright military uniforms, helmets with feathers on their heads, and marching bravely to the beat of the snare drum to the accompaniment of the snare drum.
For a super shooter like Yan Hu, this is similar to the feeling of shooting a target in training, and maybe it is easier, because those infantry have to attack from the bottom up, and their speed is as slow as a snail crawling.
Li Mu really wanted to create a legend through this war, so when he was still in Springfield, Li Mu ordered a rifle for Yan Hu, this rifle based on Spencer's seven-shot burst came from the Springfield Arsenal, all the parts are carefully crafted by experienced masters, and the fit between the parts is very high, so the accuracy of this rifle is very high, and the bullet impact point walk reached a very high level during the test, and the reason why Yan Hu has this result is also because of the bonus of weapons.
Of course, although this is a rifle produced by the Springfield Arsenal, it must also be marked with the nameplate of the Horse Weapons Company, and the same as the Python series of pistols, the rifles produced by the Horse Weapons Company are also branded, and the name Li Mu chose for the rifle of the Horse Weapons Company is "partner", which means that this is a good companion for the soldiers.
"Tiger, so what's your mission to come back this time?" Benjamin was a little eager to try it, and it seemed that he wanted to experience what it was like to go to war.
But this is impossible, no matter how much Benjamin thinks, Li Mu and Ma Han will not let Benjamin go to the battlefield, but there are no eyes on the battlefield, in case Benjamin has three long and two short, Li Mu and Ma Han can't afford to be guilty, Benjamin and his father will definitely find Li Mu to settle accounts.
"Pick the right reinforcements-" Yan Hu said simply, chatting without delaying food, it seems that this is a habit developed on the front line.
"Ha, then you're going to find Reem, now the best soldiers in the barracks are in Reem's hands." Mahan had bad intentions.
In just one day's work, the news of the increase in the training of Chinese soldiers has spread all over the barracks, and no matter whether others ridicule or look at it coldly, they must admit that in the current barracks, the training received by those Chinese soldiers is the most intense.
Not one of them.
"Don't even think about it, they won't leave the barracks until they've finished their training." Li Mu categorically refused, and on this point, Li Mu would definitely not compromise.
"Hey, Tom, tell me, how are the kids doing?" Ma Han ignored Li Mu and looked for Tom to corroborate.
"Well, they're doing well—" Tom answered at once, apparently agreeing with Mahan's words.
"Tom, do you think they don't have the ability to fight right now?" Li Mu didn't give Tom a chance to perform, and immediately interrupted Tom's words.
How can there be such a question, this is obviously a threat, Tom feels that if he doesn't follow Li Mu's meaning now, then Tom will not have a good life in the next few days.
Well, in fact, everyone in the barracks has read the "Cuban Republic", and Li Mu's reputation is also spreading, although Li Mu has always treated his own people very well, but everyone is now very sure that a certain guy from Springfield is definitely a cautious eye, if you accidentally offend him, then you better pray that God will help you, otherwise you will die an ugly death.
"Tom, tell me the truth!" Mahan's words were also threatening.
Just as everyone thinks that someone in Springfield is a cautious eye, everyone thinks that Alfred Mahan is an honest man, but often the more honest a person is, the more he can't be bullied, and it's terrible for such a person to get angry.
Tom was finally dumbfounded, Tom didn't understand why the two chiefs were suddenly-for-tat, and he was actually in the center of the whirlpool, dumbfounded for a long time, Tom found that fainting might be the best choice, so Tom forked the fried banana on the plate in front of him with a fork, and said in a snort: "Uh, today's banana fried well-"
"Hahahaha-" There was a burst of laughter in the restaurant, such an unscrupulous behavior must have come from Benjamin.
"Tom, you're such a lovely fellow, I like you—" Benjamin slapped the table and laughed, despite Mahan's ugly face.
"Hehe, well done Tom, your special allowance will be doubled starting tomorrow." Li Mu was triumphant, although he didn't slap the table and laugh viciously, but his smiling expression made someone's blood surge.
"Gentlemen, I mean, the soldiers that Jerry and I trained did very well, they were undoubtedly the best of the bunch, but I also think that these soldiers are not yet capable of going into battle, they have not been trained in tactical movements, they have not been trained in shooting, they have not been trained in teamwork-" Tom finally regained his ability to speak, still giving a positive assessment.
This somewhat made Mahan's face look a little better, and he glared fiercely at Tom, who wanted to get under the table, Mahan regrouped: "Ream, I have to say-"
"Alfred, dispel the idea, I'm not going to agree with it." Li Mu knew what Ma Han wanted to say.
"You don't distinguish between public and private." Ma Han was so angry that he really couldn't understand why Li Mu insisted.
In fact, during this time, Mahan's opinion of Li Mu has changed, through this period of observation, Mahan found that Li Mu is not as domineering as he showed in the Springfield court, although there are still some small problems, but on the whole, Li Mu is decisive, quick thinking, and his views on many things are often refreshing, which can be called a rare talent.
Only in the matter of the Chinese troops, Ma Han did not understand why Li Mu insisted, and only used the word "ethnicity" to explain, which seemed a little inexplicable.
Li Mu said that he could not do anything about this, and Li Mu really didn't want to explain this, and he couldn't explain it.
