Chapter 22 Wine to the Glass
Regardless of whether there is an office in the military headquarters or not, and whether or not these officers of the 500 Army welcome him, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Xie Zhongming must come to this military headquarters. This was an important opportunity for him to show his position in this army to all the officers of the 500th Army, as well as to all the government officials in the Tongbai Mountains. You won't have a good relationship with your subordinate officers, and you won't let the people in your jurisdiction know you, what kind of deputy commander is this?
As soon as Deputy Army Commander Xie came in, the squires, county magistrates and township magistrates of Tongbai Mountain in the hall stood up one after another, and the commanders of the troops directly under the military department, such as Fan Bolin, Cao Bao, and Kong Xuan, also stood up to greet them. Wang Dazhu, the veteran ministers of the 500 army, sat still.
Now it's important to get priorities right. They are all Gao Quan's descendants, with a deep background in the 500 Army, and they are all generals who hold military power. In addition to closely rallying around the military seat, there is no need at all, and it is not possible to show too much affection to the new deputy commander. As for the artillery commander and the cavalry commander, these people are different, after all, the positions of these positions are still too low, and paying tribute to the deputy commander does not mean that they are only grateful to the deputy commander.
Zhao Ziming originally wanted to stand up, but he could see that Liu Qi was sitting there without moving, and his body got up and sat down again. This kind of weird scene is a bit similar to standing in line, Brigade Commander Zhao has no deep roots in the 500 Army, and his current status and power are given by Gao Quan, so there is no need to stand up now, which will arouse the disgust of these backbone members of the 500 Army.
Xie Zhongming saw this kind of scene with his own eyes, and a trace of unhappiness passed through his heart, but soon this unhappiness disappeared without a trace. Those county magistrates and town mayors were so enthusiastic that they were about to lift him to the sky. In addition, after all, there are powerful officers of the army such as the commander of the artillery regiment, and it is beyond his expectations that there can be such a situation on the scene.
Deputy Commander Xie smiled and returned the salute to all the people who greeted him, and easily circled around the enthusiastic crowd around him, and said two humorous words from time to time, causing everyone's goodwill laughter.
Soon, Wang Dazhu and others found that it seemed that Xie Zhongming had become the protagonist of this hall! That's not a good sign! A group of people looked at each other, and Liu Qi, who was the most troublemaker, stood up, wanting to say something and divert the attention of the banquet hall.
"The military seat has arrived!"
With this shout, everyone in the hall "Hula! All of a sudden, they all stood up, and their movements were extremely fast. Deputy Army Commander Xie was stunned for a moment, and turned his face with an unchanged smile.
Gao Quan walked in in a brand-new military uniform in high spirits.
"Brothers, parents, fathers and elders, happy new year!" Gao Quan saluted first, then clenched his fists, and made a gesture towards everyone in the hall with a smile on his face.
"Happy New Year to the Throne!" "The military seat will make a fortune during the New Year!" "The military seat gave birth to a noble son early!" "General Gao Ryoma Spirit!" There were all kinds of messy greetings, and everyone either saluted or bowed to Gao Quan.
Hong Yingying, who followed behind Gao Quan, blushed with a flush, and a pair of phoenix eyes scanned back and forth in the hall. The officers who were usually afraid of her all looked at Gao Quan, and no one stopped laughing, and of course no one looked at those phoenix eyes. It's rare to have such a day, to be able to joke with the military seat, who would be stupid enough to let Director Hong notice?
It was the first time for Tang Wenjuan to participate in this kind of New Year's party in the army, and when she saw so many officers in military uniforms, she grinned and laughed one by one, and her heart seemed to be greatly shaken. Fortunately, she brought the camera when she came, and at this time, seeing that Gao Quan had already picked up his wine glass and started clinking glasses with everyone, reporter Tang hurriedly raised the camera, "Click! Click! Press the shutter tightly to save this happy moment.
With delicious food and wine, brothers and comrades-in-arms who lived and died side by side, and squires and government officials from all walks of life were on the side, coupled with the strobe of magnesium lights, which set off the atmosphere, Gao Quan only felt dizzy at the moment, and was completely intoxicated by the warm atmosphere in the field.
Since coming to this world, most of the time has been spent on the battlefield fighting to the death with the Japanese invaders, occasional truces, and preparations for war, when has there been such a good time of laughter?
One by one, the wine glasses touched the past, and the words of blessing said in the past, Gao Quan drank more and more unconsciously, even he didn't know how many glasses of wine he drank, only knew that someone came to clink glasses, he didn't refuse, he was happy today, it was rare to indulge once, everything was as you like.
Here, he is the biggest, no one persuaded him to drink, everyone present just wanted to touch the wine glass with him, even if Gao Quan didn't drink it, no one would be unhappy in their hearts. In this kind of scene, the picture is a joy. Everyone just wants to clink glasses with the military seat, say a few words with the military seat, and listen to Gao Quan's words of blessing or greeting. Here, Gao Quan is the most shining star and a well-deserved protagonist in the field.
The scene was too enthusiastic, people only knew to laugh and talk to the military seat, only knew to come over with a wine glass to touch, and no one paid attention to Gao Quan's fact that every glass was a dry glass.
Huiqin is usually the most reluctant person to show her face. If Tang Wenjuan hadn't pulled her over today, with Huiqin's character, she wouldn't have walked into such a messy occasion at all.
There were a lot of people in the field, and the sound of laughter and talking came together to form a loud noise. Hong Yingying followed Gao Quan and everyone to touch the wine glass for a while, then found a place to sit down on the side, looking at Gao Quan who was swaying freely in the crowd with pride and pride on her face. Being able to be with such an excellent man, she already feels that there is no waste in this life.
Feeling that someone next to her pulled her sleeve, Hong Yingying looked back and saw that it was Huiqin.
Huiqin is dressed in a military uniform, usually surrounded by a white coat, today is the first day of the new year, the white coat is removed, and only a new military uniform is worn. Seeing Hong Yingying's face flushed, her eyes full of happiness and smiles, Huiqin also showed a smiling face, followed by a frown, "Yingying, how much wine has Junzao drunk?" ”
Hong Yingying only has Gao Quan's chic appearance in her eyes, where will she care about how much wine he drinks? "Wine? Well, maybe you drank a lot, right? What's wrong? Today's Chinese New Year, everyone is happy, it's okay to drink more, right? ”
"Nothing? Don't you know that drinking too much alcohol can hurt your body? "For Hong Yingying's thick branches and leaves, Huiqin really has a bit of a headache." If you drink too much, you will die! All right? It's too late when something happens! The military seat is now unstable, go quickly, you go and persuade him, and help him to the back to rest. I can't let him drink it anymore, if he drinks it again, something big will happen! After finishing speaking, Hui Qin pushed Hong Yingying forward, "Go quickly!" If you don't go, the regret will be over! ”
Hong Yingying was pushed to the side by Huiqin, and as soon as her legs kicked the ground, she stood firmly. With her skills, how can she be pushed down by Huiqin?
