It was late autumn, and on the bank of the Xiangjiang River, there were two fires lit, but after all, they were iron pots on top of firewood, not the two-eared and three-legged tripods. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

There were soldiers of the national army sitting around their respective fires, drinking wine and eating meat happily.

A circle of people are small stones, reckless men, and people from their direct battalions.

The other circle of people is Wu Chengxian, Huo Xiaoshan, and other officers who have won the Baoding Medal.

It's just that this is the evening of the second day when Wu Chengxian organized a group to find Huo Xiaoshan to eat a big household, and it turned out that on the day they went, their idea of eating wild boar meat did not come to fruition.

This is naturally not because Huo Xiaoshan is reluctant to give up the wild boar, but Wu Chengxian and they are not as good as the sky, just when Huo Xiaoshan had already ordered his subordinates to go to sell wine and cut meat, General Tiger Tsai sent someone to summon Huo Xiaoshan to him.

Wu Chengxian and these people are all leaders of the troops, how can they not understand the rules? Even if the commander summoned it, it was a military order, and it could only push them to this day.

Although I didn't drink wine and eat meat that day, it was not a good thing to push back one day because the preparations were more meticulous.

After Huo Xiaoshan came back from General Tiger Boy, he knew that this meal of wine was inevitable, so he asked his subordinates to go to the street to purchase all kinds of vegetables and meat for drinking, and gave these officers an iron pot to stew on the bank of the Xiangjiang River.

The meat is a variety of pork meat, and the dishes are potato, lentils, sweet potatoes, eggplants, bud rice sticks, and pumpkin strips that are cut into strips are all stewed in a large iron pot by them.

Of course, the wild boar meat is naturally indispensable, but Huo Xiaoshan is from the Northeast, so he naturally knows that this stew is absolutely not fragrant if it does not add fat, and the three-layer meat on the pig is used for boiling oil.

This time, there were two more officers brought by Wu Chengxian, and there were already nine people sitting in Huo Xiaoshan and Shen Chong's circle.

And among these nine people, there are four from Hunan, two from the Sichuan army, and one from Hubei, Huo Xiaoshan is from the Northeast, and Shen Chong is from the north, but he was caught by Huo Xiaoshan to accompany the wine.

In order to take care of their Hunan and Sichuan officers' eating habits of no spicy food, Huo Xiaoshan deliberately added N good red chili peppers to the iron pot.

"It is said that the people of the four eastern provinces are fierce, and it can be seen from this cauldron!" Although Wu Chengxian has also lived in the army for a long time, it is the first time to eat in the pot, and he sighed with a piece of meat in his hand.

"What about the fierce folk customs? Didn't you give the four eastern provinces to the Japanese? A Sichuan army officer said.

In order to avoid giving people the pretext of being too thick, the Central Army always had to reserve some places for other departments when rewarding officers and men.

As the saying goes, if you eat meat, you always have to leave soup for others, so the officers of the Sichuan Army in the Ninth War Zone have a good time.

Wu Chengxian was a person in the Central Army who treated all units equally, so the officers of all departments got along with him happily for a few days, so the officers of the Sichuan Army came to drink with him.

"Let's not talk about this, we only drink wine and eat meat today!" Wu Chengxian glanced at Huo Xiaoshan and Shen Chong with his eyes, and saw that although they had already drunk their faces red, they were not unusual, but they directly stopped the words of the Sichuan army officer, and he said in his heart, You are eating wild boar meat from the four eastern provinces, but you are talking about the four eastern provinces, isn't it a little too bad.

"If you want to say that the four eastern provinces are lost, Zhang Shaoshuai naturally has the responsibility he needs to bear, so when the four eastern provinces were lost, I was still playing crazy in the mountains, and it has nothing to do with me, this Sichuan brother can say it bluntly.

However, having said that, we are here to Lehe today, so there will be an opportunity to say that we are drinking wine and eating meat today, by the way, and there is also a comparison of which one eats the most chili peppers! Huo Xiaoshan naturally understood that if this topic was said, it would be impossible to argue for a while, but he used a trick to directly shift the topic to eating chili peppers.

Sure enough, Huo Xiaoshan's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Hunan people and Sichuan people are all masters of eating chili peppers, otherwise why do you think Huo Xiaoshan would add so many red chili peppers to that iron pot?

Isn't there a saying that "Hunan people are not afraid of spicy, Sichuan people are not afraid of spicy, and Jiangxi people are afraid of spicy"?

"I think we Hunan people can eat it, haven't I heard that our Hunan women are called hot girls?" A Hunan officer said.

"I think it's still four of us who can eat it, you Hunan call it Spicy Girl, but don't you know that we Sichuan people call it Spicy Girl?" The officer who had just mentioned the four eastern provinces just now was really diverted.

"These are all hot girls, why are they divided into spicy and spicy?" Shen Chong was puzzled and asked Huo Xiaoshan in a low voice.

"That's because we Hunan people don't put peppercorns when they eat peppers, so they are called spicy, while Sichuan people put peppercorns, so they are called spicy." After all, Huo Xiaoshan was young and had limited experience, and when he shook his head, another Hunan officer explained.

"Oh." When Shen Chong Huo Xiaoshan was nodding and being taught, the Hunan officer asked with a low smile: "I don't know if you like spicy girls or spicy girls, two little brothers?" ”

"Uh-" This question made Shen Chong speechless for a while, but before he could think of how to answer, Huo Xiaoshan reacted quickly and opened his mouth and said: "He doesn't like it, he likes little girls!" ”

"Get out!" Shen Chong was hit by Huo Xiaoshan's heart all of a sudden, and his face turned even redder at that time, but he opened his mouth and spit out the word "roll".

It's just that as soon as he said the word "roll", he made a mess of the Hunan officer who was talking to them.

He said in his heart, what's the matter with this directly subordinate battalion, don't they all say that Huo Xiaoshan is a hero, but although one of his subordinates is also wearing officer clothes, he dares to say that his commander is out?

He didn't know that Dao Shen Chong was usually used to being majestic with the people in his direct battalion, and he was suddenly told by Huo Xiaoshan that he was on his mind, so he had a feeling that the little secret in his heart had been exposed, so he habitually said a roll.

"Yo? If you don't beat you for a few days, you will be punished for half a bowl, and you will be numb! Huo Xiaoshan smiled, but his eyes were shining and staring at Shen Chong's eyes.

Others didn't understand his eyes, but Shen Chong understood, which meant to say, "You dare to say that you don't like the little girl?" ”

"Uh-well!" Shen Chong knew that he couldn't afford to provoke Huo Xiaoshan, whether it was fighting or playing with his heart, not to mention that he said that Xiaoshanzi was not considerate, so he tilted his neck but poured most of the remaining half of the wine in his bowl into his throat.

His drinking made the Hunan officer a little more embarrassed, and they all said that the Northeast people drank wine and talked about bowls, which really deserved its reputation.

At this point, the wine is half-full.

But anyone who drinks knows that when the wine is drunk, it is lively, because the effect of alcohol will divide into several different combat circles to say their own things.

Sure enough, the officers who were discussing which province was the best to eat chili peppers were already "fighting".

So the Hunan officer, who was not afraid of spicy, and the Sichuan officer, who was not afraid of spicy, actually used chopsticks to take out the bright red pepper that had been boiled red and soft from the pot on the spot, and began to eat more than anyone else.

All of a sudden, this competition attracted everyone's attention, "one, two, three, four" counted, clapped loudly, cheered for their fellow countrymen, for a while it was not lively, the noisy sound seemed to shake down the maple leaves on the distant Yuelu Mountain.
