Chapter 214: Brief Encounter
Wu Erzhu didn't know Wu Tingfang, but he had also heard of this big name, but he didn't salute Wu Tingfang and Wu Erzhu, but directly stretched out his hand and said, "Welcome to Jiangsu." ☆ → top ☆ → dot ☆ → small ☆ → say, www."
When Wu Erzhu looked at Xu Shichang, he expressed a sense of closeness, and to the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, he only stretched out his hand indifferently and greeted him with a greeting in his mouth.
Wu Tingfang is old and sophisticated, so he naturally knows that their visit is not welcomed by the host, but he also doesn't care, as an old diplomat, what kind of things have not been experienced, and the indifference to others is only a breeze.
Wu Tingfang shook Wu Erzhu's hand and said enthusiastically: "General Wu is really young and promising, I have long heard that there are several generals under Guo Yu's supervising army, and General Wu is one of the best, and he can lead a strong army like Huafu Army at such a young age, and General Wu's ability is also obvious to all." ”
Wu Erzhu was very useful for Wu Tingfang's praise, but it definitely couldn't reach the point of fluttering, and Wu Erzhu just nodded lightly and didn't make any response.
Wu Erzhu's actions, in the eyes of Wu Tingfang, are not arrogant or impatient, it seems that there are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, just a retainer of Guo Yu, he can have such an appearance, it seems that the overseer of Guo Yu, who has never met before, is really not a good master.
Wu Erzhu also introduced his chief of staff, Cheng Quande, to the two of them.
Those who got off the car behind Xu Shichang and Wu Tingfang were Xu Shuzheng and Jin Yunpeng, both of whom were born in the military and had led soldiers to fight, and the first thing they paid attention to after getting off the bus was the Huafu Army soldiers standing on the platform.
The soldiers were all dressed in camouflage combat uniforms, steel helmets, armed with AK47 rifles, and wore large-headed, high-waisted combat boots with armed belts around their waists, and a slip of stuff hanging from the armed belts. Daggers, grenades, kettles and other items look majestic and energetic.
Xu Shuzheng and Jin Yunpeng glanced at each other, they were both veterans, and they naturally knew the quality of the soldiers, and both of them had some ups and downs in their hearts. It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that he was shocked, but he definitely didn't expect that Hua Fujun would be able to be elite to such a point.
Taking advantage of the greetings between Wu Erzhu and Wu Tingfang, Xu Shuzheng whispered to Jin Yunpeng: "It looks very good, and the spirit is very full, but I don't know what the actual combat power is." ”
"It is said that the training of the Huafu army is very strict, the food is very good, it is not surprising that there is such a appearance, but an army still has to go through fighting. can really become a strong army, so for now, it's just a thing on the table. Jin Yunpeng said.
As for whether Jin Yunpeng's words are sour, I don't know. To say that the Huafu Army is indeed as Jin Yunpeng said, it has not been tempered by actual combat, but to say that the Huafu Army's combat strength is low, it is just a sour grapes mentality.
A good army, weapons, logistics, tactics, and the mental outlook of the soldiers. These factors are combined, as long as it's not a particularly stupid general. The Huafu army is absolutely victorious against any army in the current Republic of China.
After Wu Tingfang and Wu Erzhu exchanged pleasantries, he pointed to Xu Shuzheng and Jin Yunpeng behind him and said: "I will introduce these two to General Wu, this one is Xu Shuzheng, deputy director of the Republic of China Army, and this is General Jin Yunpeng, general of the army and director of the army office. ”
Wu Erzhu looked at Xu Shuzheng, stretched out his hand and said, "Although I haven't seen Xu Cichang before, I have the closest to Xu Cichang. It was me who was outside the Army Department, and Vice Minister Xu was in the Office of the War Department. When he said this, Wu Erzhu's two eyes were still burning at Xu Shuzheng's pair of small eyes.
Xu Shuzheng heard the unkindness in Wu Erzhu's tone towards him, but he was a high-minded and arrogant person, how could he avoid it. asked directly: "I don't know what General Wu did when he came to the War Department." ”
"My lord joined the Su Chang Town Guard, and went to the War Department to receive the documents, at that time it was received by Vice Minister Xu, and Deputy Chief Xu's reception method is also special, my lord does not care about these a lot, but I can't help but remember that for Lord Xu's kindness, Erzhu will repay you if he has the opportunity."
When Wu Erzhu said these words, there was no emotion on his face, and he still had such a calm expression, but everyone could see that Wu Erzhu was talking back.
When Wu Erzhu and Guo Yu went through the entry procedures together, although Xu Shuzheng was not difficult in every way, he did not give a good word, and after coming back, Guo Yu took what happened at that time as a joke and told Wu Erzhu, although Guo Yu did not go to his heart, but Wu Erzhu did not think so, the lord humiliated the ministers to death, his own master is his own heaven, he can't suffer a little grievance, let such a deputy army commander teach a lesson, which Wu Erzhu can't accept.
Although Wu Erzhu didn't say anything at that time, but yesterday he heard Zhou Wu's notice that there was this Xu Shuzheng among the people who received him, and Wu Erzhu was heartbroken, and he wanted to find the field in his heart.
Xu Shichang and Wu Tingfang are both human spirits, and they also know that this Xu Deputy Chief is a person, and when Xu Shuzheng usually has a lot of bitterness and meanness in his words, Xu Shichang's kindness to Guo Yu is only when Guo Yu has not made a career, and he treats him equally, so he has the courtesy later.
And among the people who were not very good to Guo Yu at that time, there were Xu Shuzheng and Feng Guozhang, Feng Guozhang was taken away from Jiangsu, Guo Yu can be regarded as having this breath, and now this Xu Shuzheng himself has hit the muzzle, which is really unlucky.
Now these two are a little regretful, why didn't they think of this stubble in the first place, and now they bring Xu Shuzheng out, which has a counterproductive effect.
Wu Tingfang glanced at Xu Shichang, meaning that you are more familiar, they give you face, or you step forward and say a few words, Xu Shichang had no choice but to come forward and say: "There may have been some misunderstandings before, but I know Hanyang's temper, Hanyang is a generous person, I think Hanyang and Youzhen will not care about some trivial things." ”
"My lord is naturally a generous person, but I Wu Erzhu is sometimes a little stingy, since Xu Cichang has come to Jiangsu, I Wu is still welcome." Wu Erzhu said welcome, but everyone also heard the meaning of Wu Erzhu's words, my lord is generous, but I am stingy, this matter is not over.
Xu Shichang and Wu Tingfang shook their heads when they heard this, they really miscalculated.
After shaking hands with Xu Shuzheng, Wu Erzhu shook hands with Jin Yunpeng, and then said to everyone: "A few guests are from afar, and the place to stay has been arranged for everyone, please get in the car." ”
Xu Shichang and his entourage were about 20 people, and after getting into the car sent by Hua Fujun, the convoy drove to the hotel.
But this time there is no such treatment as when Xu Shichang came alone, Xu Shichang came to live in a garden-style hotel last time, and it is definitely a pleasure to live, but this time Wu Erzhu arranged just an ordinary hotel, Xu Shichang, Wu Tingfang, Xu Shuzheng and Jin Yunpeng, these people are just suites, which are much worse than Xu Shichang's residence last time.
Xu Shichang saw this posture, he was implicated by Xu Shuzheng, but he could only laugh at it.
In a living room in the hotel, Wu Erzhu said to Xu Shichang and the others: "Old Xu, Chief Wu, the accommodation of your few people has been arranged, please take a rest first, I will go back to my life." ”
Wu Tingfang hurriedly said: "General Wu, did Guo Dujun say when to arrange a meeting, this matter is very anxious." ”
They all came with a mission, and several giants of the Republic of China were still waiting for news from here in the capital, so they naturally hoped to see Guo Yu as much as possible so that they could discuss the matter.
"I can't be the master of this, I will inform my lord of your meaning, as for how the lord arranges, it depends on the lord's meaning, besides, my lord is also very busy." Wu Erzhu said.
When Wu Erzhu said this, he saluted Xu Shichang, and then nodded at Wu Tingfang, as for Xu Shuzheng, he didn't even look at it, and left directly.
Xu Shuzheng's face was pale, he had a career as a young man, he had a smooth journey, he was appreciated by Duan Qirui, and he held great power in the government of the Republic of China, how could he have been so angry.
Xu Shuzheng said angrily, "He Guo Yu is an overseer, is he busier than the president, Wu Erzhu is only twenty years old, he is so domineering at a young age, I think Guo Yu is also a cronyistic master, it is difficult to develop." ”
Xu Shichang, Wu Tingfang, and Jin Yunpeng are all older than Xu Shuzheng, and Xu Shuzheng's sentence is so domineering at a young age, in the eyes of these people, how is it not a portrayal of Xu Shuzheng, these people are not easy to persuade, so they can only smile bitterly.
After all, Xu Shichang led the team and said: "We came all the way from the capital, and we also rushed for several days, so we will rest for one night, and I will call Guo Yu personally in the evening to determine the time to meet." ”
"Then there's Brother Laub." Wu Tingfang said.
Everyone was in a hurry for several days, and they were indeed a little tired, so they all went back to their rooms to rest.
In the evening, Xu Shichang personally called Guo Yu.
"Hanyang, I am also helpless, Premier Duan personally begged to come to the door, and I couldn't refuse, so I had to come hard." Xu Shichang said on the phone.
"Old Xu, it's really snubbing, Erzhu, this kid came back and told me about today's events, and I also scolded him, they are all commanders, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and they still act like children, isn't this a joke." Guo Yu said.
"General Wu is a man of temperament, you are not easy to criticize, after all, he is also here to protect you, and there is nothing to be lazy about." Xu Shichang said.
"Tomorrow I will ask someone to change your residence, and today I will wronged you for being old." Guo Yu said.
"It's better not to change it, I think it's good here, I just want to ask Hanyang when he is free, let's meet and talk, and I can finish this errand as soon as possible." How could Xu Shichang care about these details, he still had to focus on business.
"Tomorrow at noon, I will hold a banquet at home to entertain you and a few officials of the Republic of China, and I will have someone pick you up at that time." Guo Yu said.
"Okay, that's it, it's good to go to your Yifu Garden to take a look at the autumn colors." Xu Shichang made an appointment with Guo Yu on the phone. (To be continued......) R527
