"Big brother, is the 52nd Division of the Central Army the newly promulgated sorting division ******* last month?" Dai Ziran asked.

Wu Ming shook his head: "Chairman Jiang's several descendants have not been sorted out yet, where will it be the turn of the fifty-second division...... According to the internal battle reports in the past few months, at the beginning of the year, Li Ming, the acting division commander, replaced Han Deqin, who was transferred to the Second Division as the division commander, and became the new division commander of the 52nd Division. ”

Wu Ming took the tea and sat down slowly under the warm greeting of the Tian family, because there were too many brothers, he could only wait at the door, but he didn't expect the villagers to dare not come.

Second Brother Tian hurriedly took out the letter, and Wu Ming was very happy after reading it: "Uncle and aunt, several eldest brothers and sisters-in-law, the Zhenggang brothers have a future, and after making military achievements, they have been specially recommended by their commanders and the Nanchang Suppression General Headquarters. ”

"Daoist Wu, what about you now? How big of an official have you been? Second Brother Tian asked curiously.

Wu Ming touched the lieutenant colonel's collar badge on his collar: "I am different from Zhenggang, I am from the Zhejiang Security Forces, and I belong to the direct leadership of the Zhejiang Provincial Government, while Zhenggang is Chairman Jiang's army and is under the direct leadership of the central government, so even if I am a captain, I can't compare with him!" ”

The men, women and children of the Tian family who were huddled together were very happy, although they didn't know how big Wu Ming's captain was, but Wu Ming led dozens of soldiers, all with long and short guns, and two machine guns and two small cannons on horseback.

Wu Ming took out a pen and notebook, recorded the mailing address of the envelope Ueda Masao, and then asked the brothers to bring in the gifts, without eating, and left under the pretext that they were busy with military affairs.

Where are the simple and enthusiastic villagers? Men, women, and children chased after them to keep them, but they couldn't catch up with the speed of the war horses, so they had to give up.

On the way to Huanggu Town in the east, Lu Zhengde stepped forward and walked in parallel with Wu Ming: "Didn't you plan to recruit troops in Tianjia Village before?" Why did you leave as if you were running away? ”

Wu Ming said the pain in his heart, and then pointed to the mountains in the north and various places under the mountains, and told Lu Zhengde how he was rescued by the Taoist priest of the Prayer Truth Temple on the mountain, how he knew Tian Zhenggang, how he was surrounded by officers and soldiers, how Tian Zhenggang sent him to escape, etc., and told Lu Zhengde and the brothers behind him, Dai Ziran, etc., all the details, and heard Lu Zhengde and the brothers behind him Lu Kuiyuan, Dai Ziran and other brothers sigh with emotion, and only then did he understand Wu Ming's complicated mood at the moment.

Coming to the familiar three-way intersection, looking at the dilapidated land temple in the north, Wu Ming's heart fluctuated and became sad, and he pondered for a long time, he instructed Lu Zhengde to lead the brothers back to the inn, waiting for Li Kun and them to send a message, and he took Dai Ziran, Lu Kuiyuan and Lei Peng, took the remaining two horses, a box of Jinxian soju and a few packets of sugar cakes, and headed north.

From time to time on the road, he met the farmers who avoided the side, Wu Ming did not speak, and when he arrived at the intersection outside Huanggu Town, he directly hit the horse and turned into the left path, walked hundreds of meters, and saw Liu Qiqi squatting under the bamboo roots and breaking the bamboo strips from a distance.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, Wu Ming had no choice but to open his mouth first and call "Inspire Big Brother".

Liu Qiqi, who was shirtless, stood up in shock, staring at Wu Ming who came from the horse, the firewood knife in his hand was held tightly, panicked and confused, until Wu Ming walked in front of him with a smile, he threw down the firewood knife in surprise and stepped forward to meet him warmly.

Knowing that Liu Qiqi's three children were all studying for free in the town middle school, Wu Ming smiled happily, asked Kui Yuan to take out all the cloth and gifts and put them on the ground, then took out ten oceans and put them on the gifts, took out a notebook and opened it, wrote down his mailing address, tore it off and handed it to Liu Qiqi:

"Inspire the eldest brother, brother, I am in military affairs, and I can't stay for a long time. This is my mailing address, and if your son has difficulty studying in the future, he can write to me, or he can go to me, and go! ”

"Oops, oops! Brother Wu, Brother Wu, ......"

"Let's go back!"

Without waiting for Liu Qiqi, who was in tears, to catch up, Wu Ming had already beaten his horse and left, turned through the grove, turned the field, and Wu Ming suddenly found that nearly 100 officers and soldiers in gray military uniforms and militia group villagers in front of him blocked the intersection.

More than 100 people saw Wu Ming and a few people restraining their horses more than 30 meters away, and immediately raised their guns to point at Wu Ming, and one of the officials shouted: "Put down your weapons and honestly come over and show your documents!" ”

"Oh!"

Lu Kuiyuan and Lei Peng picked up their submachine guns and quickly loaded them.

Wu Ming immediately raised his hand and shouted: "Don't move, wait for me here!" ”

After speaking, Wu Ming turned over and dismounted, strode towards more than 100 highly nervous officers and soldiers and village warriors, stopped one meter in front of them, held four guns, and took out the certificate and officer ID from the mouth of his jacket: "See clearly, don't mess around." ”

"Ahh Is it from the Zhejiang West Security Command? What a lieutenant colonel! I'm sorry, sir, it's rare to see you in green uniforms, may I ask if the chief didn't come to celebrate Old Man Chen's birthday and went the wrong way, right? The officer, who had the rank of lieutenant, was still polite, and motioned to his brothers and militia to put away their guns.

Lu Kuiyuan and the three of them quickly came up, staring at this group of bastards viciously, and the lieutenant saw the American submachine gun in the hands of the three of them and the Colt pistol on his waist, and immediately took a big step back in shock.

"It's okay, we're here to investigate a big case, and this matter is related to a few bandits in your northern bookshelf mountain and Shiren Mountain." Wu Ming said vaguely.

The lieutenant stared at Wu Ming's young and handsome face and desperately recalled, and after a while, he suddenly exclaimed: "Chief Wu, you are Captain Wu Ming who cracked the great robbery of Zhengjue Temple that caused a sensation throughout the country?" ”

Wu Ming smiled: "It's the contemptible person who can make your brothers put away their guns, right?" ”

The lieutenant immediately dispersed his brothers and Xiang Yong: "Chief Wu, please forgive me, I thought you were coming to Old Man Chen's house to celebrate your birthday, but there is no reason to go into the remote path, I came over after receiving the report from Xiang Yong, and I saw that the clothes on the chief were wrong, just in case, I wronged the chief." ”

Wu Ming motioned to Lu Kuiyuan to put away his gun: "I heard that your accent is from Nanchang?" ”

"Chief Mingjian, we are escorting Section Chief Chen back to his hometown from Nanchang to handle the old man's fiftieth birthday, and we have to go back in two days." The lieutenant had a good impression of Wu Ming, who had been in the central newspaper several times.

Wu Ming frowned: "So, Chen Zhongkang is still staying at home?" ”

"Yes! Mrs. Chen is also back, Commissioner Wang is also there, and many local squires are here, and the Chen Mansion is still very lively on the third day...... Why, Chief Wu knows Section Chief Chen? The lieutenant asked smartly.

Wu Ming felt a dull pain in his heart for no reason, gritted his teeth, and turned to Lu Kuiyuan: "Which of you still has a gift right away?" ”

"It's gone!"

Lu Kuiyuan shook his head and looked at Lei Peng, who in turn looked at Dai Ziran.

Dai Ziran shrugged: "Don't look at me, in addition to weapons and documents, I still have twenty oceans on me." ”

Wu Ming smiled: "Old man Chen is a kind elder, Section Chief Chen Zhongkang is a talented man who came back from studying in Japan, their family is very hospitable, and that Commissioner Wang, if my estimate is good, I am afraid that he will not be a commissioner for a year." I'm hungry, so let's celebrate our birthday, it doesn't matter if we don't have gifts, friendship is important, haha! ”

After Wu Ming finished speaking, he grabbed the reins and turned over on his horse, clamped his legs, and headed straight towards the town, a group of officers and soldiers and Xiang Yong looked at each other, no one thought that things would turn out like this.

Lu Kuiyuan and Dai Ziran followed with horses, and the more the careful Dai Ziran thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he anxiously asked Lu Kuiyuan beside him:

"Big brother's demeanor and face are wrong! Will something happen? ”

"What a fart! was pointed at a gun just now, Lao Tzu is still on fire now, if the eldest brother doesn't like anyone, shoot his mother, drive! ”

Lu Kuiyuan hit his horse to catch up with Wu Ming, and Lei Peng, who was silent, also rode his horse to follow, so frightened that Dai Ziran hurriedly followed, but fortunately, Wu Ming slowed down when he entered the streets of the town, otherwise he really didn't know what to do.

The town was extremely lively, but Wu Mingxin walked on horseback, his demeanor was calm and calm, and the three heavily armed brothers rode horses to follow, but they were still frightened and the crowd avoided one after another, instantly destroying the peaceful atmosphere here.

The middle-aged literati who were standing outside the gate of the Chen Mansion compound to greet the guests saw that Wu Ming had not dismounted when he came to the gate, and was just about to scold loudly, but he was frightened by Wu Ming's cold eyes.

Before he could react, Wu Ming had already dismounted and came to him, took out his military ID card and opened it in front of him, let him see it clearly and then slowly retract it: "Please report it, Wu Ming, the lieutenant colonel of the Fifth Regiment directly under the West Zhejiang Security Command, came to congratulate!" ”

"Good, good! Please wait a minute, sir, and the little one will report it. ”

When the middle-aged literati turned around and went in, when he turned his back to Wu Ming, this cunning guy quietly glanced at the four officers and soldiers who were standing at the door, and the four officers and soldiers immediately untied their guns and surrounded them, and after a while, more than a dozen officers and soldiers in the courtyard quickly rushed out of the gate, and in the blink of an eye, they vigilantly surrounded Wu Ming and the four of them.
