Ten minutes later, Wu Ming and Yu Jishi walked out side by side.

All the generals waiting in the lobby stood solemnly, and no one could see anything from the faces of Yu Jishi and Wu Ming, who looked as usual, including Chen Shizheng and Liu Guoyong, who could only be full of doubts.

From Yu Jishi's return from lunch to see Wu Ming, to Wu Ming's sending Yu Jishi out of the brigade department, the whole process only took thirty minutes, and all the generals who knew the inside story were very surprised by this result, and they couldn't figure out how such a major decision could be easily resolved in just thirty minutes, and it seemed that both parties were very satisfied.

Only a few people such as Wu Ming, Yu Jishi, and Chen Shizheng know the difficulties involved, and for today's thirty minutes, Yu Jishi and Wu Ming have been preparing for more than a year.

Wu Ming led the commanders of the Second Brigade to accompany Yu Jishi to the special car that had been started, and Yu Jishi, who had put down a big concern, stood quietly outside the open car door, and was just about to talk to Wu Ming for a while, when he saw the star officer running over, he had to signal to Wu Ming.

The star officer ran to Wu Ming and reported in a low voice: "Brigade, there is a young man surnamed Sun outside the gate, saying that he has something important to look for you." ”

"A young man with the surname Sun?"

Wu Ming turned his head to look at the gate of the camp eighty meters away, but he could only see the officers and soldiers lining up to leave the camp, and immediately ordered the officer on duty to go back and wait, and turned around to ask Yu Jishi to get into the car.

Yu Jishi seemed to have something to say, so Yu Crisp asked Wu Ming to accompany him, walk out of the camp gate and get into the car together, and then walked side by side with Wu Ming, talking while walking.

Dozens of generals and colonels in straight uniforms followed closely behind the two, and with the large teams of men and horses walking by them, it looked quite a bit of a spectacular scene of a big war coming.

Before Wu Ming came to the gate of the camp, the tall young man who was stopped by the door immediately raised his hand and shouted: "Big brother, big brother, I'm here."

Everyone followed the prestige, Wu Ming had already strode up, grabbed the hand stretched out by the excited young man, and looked up and down: "How did you become like this?"

The young man smiled and replied embarrassedly, "I ran away...... I'm afraid that the master won't agree, so I cut off my long hair, big brother, I don't plan to go back again when I come out this time, anyway, the master also said, I don't have a fate, and there is no cultivator's Huigen, so I came to join the eldest brother as a soldier."

"Oh my God, if you let your senior brother know, he won't beat me?" Wu Ming really couldn't imagine that things would be like this.

The young man grinned: "Big brother, although you can rest assured, although the senior brother is powerful, he may not be able to beat you and me combined."

Wu Ming had a headache, and when he saw that Yu Jishi had come to his side, he had to explain to Yu Shizuo: "This is my brother, surnamed Sun, legal name Chengyuan, fifteen years old this year, this guy from Longhu Mountain Taoist suddenly went crazy, cut off his long hair and ran to be a soldier with me, how can I face his master and brother in the future?" ”

Cheng Yuan was extremely bold, and when he saw Yu Ji, he looked at himself with a smile, and hurriedly walked to Wu Ming's side and asked, "Big brother, this brother looks like he should be a general, right?" ”

Wu Ming nodded a little embarrassedly: "Not only the general, but also your eldest brother and my immediate boss." ”

"Boss? Then when the little brother becomes a soldier with you, what should you call him? Cheng Yuan's curious inquiry provoked a kind laugh around him.

Yu Jishi was very happy, patted Wu Ming and laughed loudly: "You are not simple, even Taoist priests are willing to be soldiers with you, I am completely relieved...... Remember, send me another regiment in half a year, if this little brother is willing, you can send it to me too, let's go, haluha"

"Yes"

Wu Ming hurriedly saluted, and when Yu Jishi's car went away, he instructed the brothers who were gathered around him to go what to do, and then took Cheng Yuan's hand and asked him the specific reason why he was still a soldier.

Cheng Yuan explained endlessly, and then lowered his voice and said to Wu Ming: "I saw Brother Kuiyuan again last night...... He had just returned from the north of Phoenix Mountain with his troops, and he took his eldest brother and ran to Ziyunguan to find me and my senior brother for a drink. ”

Wu Ming knew that during this period of time, Chengyuan lived in the Ziyun Temple in the northeast of Maoliangwu, which was completed not long ago, and practiced with his senior brother Chengzong, treating bruises and injuries for the villagers who came to the door, so it was not surprising that he knew Lu Kuiyuan, who often went to Ziyunguan as a guest.

In addition, Tian Zhenggang and Chengzong and Chengyuan knew each other as early as when they were in Taijin Mountain, so there was nothing strange about it, and he asked with a smile at the moment:

"What? Those two boys often go to your place for drinks? ”

"Brother Zhenggang rarely goes, Brother Kuiyuan goes more, he drinks a lot, I guess it's about the same as you, but his kung fu, hehe...... "Cheng Yuan said with a smile.

Wu Ming stopped curiously: "Have you tried it with him?" ”

Cheng Yuan nodded: "I have been here a few times before, I drank a little wine last night, he insisted on coming for real, but I knocked him to the ground, grinning in pain, but he was still not convinced, saying that I was useless in my ability, and I was absolutely not accurate in shooting, and said that if I was more than marksmanship, he could let me shoot three shots in ten shots, and I ran here this morning in a fit of anger, hehe"

Wu Ming had a headache: "What a forced Lu Kuiyuan, if you can't beat people, you will talk nonsense, don't let me see him, Lao Tzu has been in a very bad mood in the past two days...... Stunned by what? Let's go."

"Ah big brother, when are you going to shoot me?"

"Smelly sweat, go take a shower first, and then change into a military uniform, I feel satisfied, and then say, if you are not satisfied, you put on your Taoist robe and go back to Longhu Mountain, so that your master and brother will come to me to trouble......"

The first snow of the severe winter season slowly stopped after falling for most of the night, and the outside of Changshan Castle was mottled.

The sky is bright, the sun is rising, and the sun is shining.

The snow on the eaves and streets melted quietly in the cold air, the streets and alleys still looked a little deserted, and the pedestrians who had to go out in order to make a living were all wrapped in their bodies, shrunken and hurried.

Only the Changshan military camp under the snow-capped Zhanyi Mountain is still as bright as in the past, and the roar is shocking, but the difference is that on the huge stone pillar on the left side of the south-facing barracks gate, the long signboard with black characters on a white background has been replaced by the "Second Brigade of the Zhejiang Provincial Security Forces" to the "New Tenth Brigade of the Central Army".

In the eyes of the people of Changshan and even the entire western Zhejiang, the Changshan military camp is no different from the past, and the military camp is still stationed in those officers and soldiers who have strict military discipline, fair trading, and help the villagers chop wood, carry water, repair bridges and pave roads on weekdays, and the leader of the troops is still the somewhat domineering but lovely and respectable fierce general Wu Ming.

The whole of western Zhejiang knows that Wu Ming and his eldest brother, Commissioner Fang Youchun, for the sake of the tax revenue of the three counties in western Zhejiang, have fallen out with his eldest brother and the commissioner of the administrative department, and there are more and more versions of various rumors, which have become a topic that the people of western Zhejiang talk about after dinner, such as "Until now, Commissioner Fang and Chief Wu are still fighting", "As long as Commissioner Fang returns to Changshan Gongyu or visits his parents, Chief Wu will definitely leave Changshan the day before, either to inspect the defense of the army or to Kaihua, or to Maoliangwu to lead troops for training". Every time Chief Wu went home and was instructed by the two elders, he obediently knelt down and admitted his mistakes, but as soon as he went out, his old brother continued to do his own thing" and so on, there are more and more rumors, the stories are getting more and more exciting, and they are getting closer and closer to the real life and aesthetic needs of the people.

In various funny and exaggerated legends, Fang Youchun has become a fair and honest, iron-faced and selfless Qingtian lord, and Wu Ming, who is strict in governing the army but close to the people and loves the people, has become a character like Cheng biting gold, and the protagonists in the two stories are becoming more and more vivid in various funny and exaggerated legends.

Wu Ming was a little helpless about this, after many statements to no avail, Yu Crisp came to ignore it, one of his eyes was closely staring at the battlefields in the west, understanding the progress of the Fifth Encirclement and Suppression War, and one eye staring at the officers and soldiers under his command.

In this way, he has not forgotten to make the business bigger.

In late January of the new year, the main battlefield of the Kuomintang army and the Communist Red Army was moved from the central Soviet region of Hunan and Jiangxi to the territory of Guizhou, and most of Jiangxi gradually stabilized, only the war in northeastern Jiangxi became increasingly fierce, and the 10th Army of the Red Army, which had no hope of breaking through in the direction of southern Anhui, suffered heavy losses and slowly fell into the heavy encirclement of the 12 regiments of the Kuomintang army commanded by Yu Jishi.

Not many people have noticed that in the border areas of Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Anhui provinces in the non-stop war for more than two months, the trade route between Zhejiang and Jiangxi provinces has not only not been interrupted, but the business between each other has become more and more prosperous, and the coal, pig iron, zinc ingots, copper ingots, tobacco leaves, etc. from more than a dozen counties in eastern and northeastern Jiangxi have been continuously transported to western Zhejiang, and then exchanged for high-quality rice, farm tools, cattle, cloth, medicines, department stores and other commodities in western Zhejiang, and the most scarce salt has not been out of stock, and the price is very stable, of which the price of refined salt has also dropped by two percent.

In this war on the Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui border, the newly formed 10th Brigade belonging to the Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui-Fujian pursuit column was the most relaxed.

Although the 10th Brigade did not dispatch a single soldier, the three counties in western Zhejiang where it was stationed also belonged to the theater demarcated by the Kuomintang General Headquarters, and no matter what the outcome of the war was, the new 10th Brigade would have no merit, and the three counties in western Zhejiang really needed to be stationed with heavy troops to prevent the remnants of the Red Army retreating into the mountainous areas of northern Fujian from converging with the Red Army in northeastern Jiangxi, and it was also necessary to ensure the smooth flow of supply and transportation lines and receive the wounded and prisoners who were continuously sent back from the front. This is also a hole card that Wu Ming pinched in his hand and dared to bargain with Yu Jishi.

In the newly built two rows of wards southeast of the barracks playground, Wu Ming visited Li Yanping, the former commander of the Fourth Regiment of the Second Brigade and a graduate of the Seventh Artillery Department of Huangpu, who had just undergone abdominal suture surgery, and then went around the row of heavily guarded wards in the east where more than 300 wounded Red Army soldiers were lying, and then returned to the dormitory behind the brigade headquarters to report the situation to his old friend Zhang Fenglan, who was lying on the bed.
