Chapter 14: Advanced (39)

The discussion slowly unfolded in the banquet, and according to Xu Qiming's original intention, let the guards go to the cafeteria to get a fast food with food for each person. Unexpectedly, the opinion was revised by Chen Jiheng, Chen Jiheng told the guards, look at what dishes are available in the canteen, and bring in one or two plates of each dish, which is also convenient for everyone here to choose from multiple choices, so as not to be too monotonous. Chen Jiheng only upgraded fast food to a simple meal, but this simple meal was also broken by Liang Shousheng in one fell swoop, and while he went back to his office to get wine, he also brought a roast duck prepared for him by the guards. With roast duck as a hard dish, and then the Sichuan-style back pot meat, braised vegetarian beans, braised tender tofu and cold soybean sprouts sent from the canteen are placed on the sides, which is like a good table of good dishes. Then put two rice bowls in front of each person, one bowl of wine and one bowl of soup, soup and water, and a table was full.

The most important thing is that Xu Qiming's guards have eyes, and seeing that this group of people is planning to turn Xu Qiming's reception room into a private room, they took it upon themselves to move a round table from the canteen and put it on the coffee table of Huanghuali, which became a natural dining table, surrounded by sofas and chairs, more than enough for eight people.

Seeing that the office was immediately turned into a restaurant, the most excited person was Xiao Zhaopeng. Chief of Staff Xiao is an upright person, quite ancient, and the wine color and wealth are unique to the things in the cup, especially at night, no wine is not happy. I thought that today's dinner would be passed in the form of a working meal, and I was thinking about where to find a place to spend the night after the meeting. He is a guest in Guilin, his family is in Liuzhou, if he wants to drink and eat, he can only go to the street to find a tavern, and he is thinking about who to ask about the night market in Guilin City, the distance, what are the characteristics, there is no choice, even if it is rice noodles to send wine, you have to drink a glass. Unexpectedly, this Liang Zhongdu actually upgraded a simple meal into a small banquet, not to mention anything else, just this bowl of wine, the color is clear, gently shaken, and even hung a thin layer of wine on the wall of the bowl, it is definitely an old wine. I have heard for a long time that Guilin has three mountains in the world, and the three flowers in the cave are better than the Li River, but it is a pity that I have never drunk good goods in Guilin on a business trip over the years. Xiao Zhaopeng knew that he was a guest and his level was enough, so under Xu Qiming's greeting, he took the lead in sitting as a guest of honor. According to the rules, Chen Jiheng should sit next, but he didn't want to drink more, so he pulled Liang Shousheng over, saying that the rich man should give priority and let him accompany Xiao Zhaopeng to drink.

Xu Qiming pulled Mo Di to sit down on the other side of him, and smiled at Tang Jimen: "Tianzong is a guest, you are the master, you must give in, you can't judge up and down by military rank." ”

Chen Jiheng smiled and said, "Whoever dares to talk about military rank at the wine table, let him take off his clothes before serving." ”

Xiao Zhaopeng was also happy, responded to the call, stood up, took off his shirt, and said: "Brother Kunshan (Chen Jihuan) said this is deeply in line with my wishes, it is better to take it off, and there is no restraint." ”

Xu Qiming waved his hand and said, "You can't take it off, everyone is free." I can't take it off, the day before yesterday in the guest, yesterday in Liuzhou, today also over Lipu, busy, a few days without a bath, the smell of sweat in this body, all rely on the coat cover, a take off, I am afraid that the smell is too heavy, the aroma of wine may not be able to suppress. ”

Mo Di didn't take it off, he was too lean, wearing a military uniform, and he didn't look good, once he took it off, his prototype was revealed.

Liang Wuya's office was not far from the side, so he simply went over to change into a poplin shirt, and by the way, he also took a bag of air-dried corn and filled two bowls, which was regarded as an additional dish. This kind of air-dried corn is a typical Guinan characteristic, the old corn is boiled thoroughly, and then dried, it can be stored for a long time, when eating, it is fried with oil, the outside is charred and the inside is crispy, crispy and delicious. Liang Wuya is a cultivator who pays attention to vegetarianism, and this kind of vegetarian corn is their favorite, which can be used as a staple food or a staple food.

Obviously, Xiao Zhaopeng recognized this kind of food very much, the first clip, the chopsticks stretched out, and he didn't forget to sigh in his mouth: "This kind of corn, we also have it in our hometown in Longzhou, it has been out for a long time, and it is rare to eat it. ”

"In that case, you can drink this cup first." Xu Qiming was the master and took the lead in raising the wine bowl in front of him.

Looking at the wine bowls that were up and down in four taels, Chen Jiheng hurriedly added: "Cheers are free, let's do whatever you want." ”

"Feel free to do so." Liang Shousheng, who is ubiquitous, said: "If one person wins, no one else can raise fish." ”

Mo Di knew what this guy meant, and he drank the wine in his own wine bowl, as much as he wanted, regardless of the depth, he knew how fast or slow, but there was a little request, one person in the banquet drank the wine in the bowl, and the others also drank it. In this case, if you start to drink slowly, the next sip will be bigger, and if you start to drink quickly, the next sip will be much less. Mo Di couldn't drink a lot of wine, so he could only fly first, and in the first sip, he drank a lot of wine bowls. Liang Zhongdu's Sanhua wine is really good, Mo Di has drunk Antaiyuan's old Sanhua, it is an old old product contributed by Antaiyuan's old owner, it is said that it has been stored in the cave of Putuo Mountain for ten years, and it seems that it is not as good as the bowl in front of him.

It is said that before humans knew about winemaking, the apes on both sides of the Li River picked flowers and fruits to make "ape wine", which shows that the Li River is one of the birthplaces of wine. Since ancient times, Guilin has been famous wine such as Ruilu and osmanthus wine, and Ruilu is a tribute wine of the Song Dynasty. Tang Dynasty Song Zhi asked Shiyun: "The old customs of Shi'an are prosperous, and the tent drinks the boiling river song of the city." "Shi'an County, the ancient name of Guilin in the Han Dynasty. The Song Dynasty poet Lu Yuan has a poem: "The scenery of the river is like a Qiantang, and there is a new fragrance of all things", describing the grand occasion of thousands of households on both sides of the Li River. Zhou Qufei of the Song Dynasty recorded in the book "Lingwai Dai Answer": There is no prohibition on alcohol in Guangyou, and liquor is sold on the side of the road, especially in Jingjiang, and 14 yuan is used to buy a big white ......

The winemaking workshop in Guilin calls the liquor that has been distilled three times as Sanhua Liquor, which is also known as Sanhua Liquor. The so-called three flowers are used by the wine master to measure the degree of wine. Hops are the foam when pouring wine, there are large flowers, medium flowers, fine flowers, with fine flowers as the superior, three flowers are fine flowers. There are more than 80 large and small breweries in Guilin, and the liquor brewed is sold to Wuzhou, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia from the Lijiang waterway.

The most famous thing in Guilin is that the winery is Antaiyuan, but Liang Zhongdu's wines are not products of Antaiyuan. According to Liang Zhongdu, these wines come from Wanxiang Bad Fang at the intersection of Dongzhen Road, which is the treasure of Wanxiang Bad Fang, and it is easy not to go to the counter, and those who can drink it are either nobles or rich people.

Mo Di glanced at Liang Zhongdu, and anyone with a discerning eye knew that Wanxiang Bad Fang rented the façade to the Red Army as an office, if Huang Kuangda, the owner of Wanxiang Bad Fang, had nothing to do with them, the ghost would not believe it. Liang Zhongdu can get good wine from Wanxiang Bad Fang, but I'm afraid he can't get rid of it. Thinking of this, I raised my neck and took a sip, and the aroma of the wine went down my throat, without any barrier, and it was really mellow.

A bowl of four or two stomachs only provoked the topic, the battle situation in western Hubei can have insights.

Zhongdu General Liang Shousheng's words are embarrassing: The Jianghan Plain has a vertical and horizontal water network, and it is difficult to move an inch without a strong engineering army, and the Japanese army does not have a mechanical engineering army, but it can be like entering a no-man's land, all because of the inaction of the Sixth Theater Command. Don't talk about things with munitions, destroy bridges, destroy roads, but you don't need too many guns and ammunition, hoes and pickaxes, don't say you don't even have this thing. As for the war situation in western Hubei, if the commander of the Sixth Theater was not Chen Cheng, and if the acting commander of the Sixth Theater was not Sun Lianzhong, such a situation would never have occurred.

No one dared to answer this remark, and the recorder was also at a loss, and this kind of talk was reported to the Central Committee and the Military Command Department, and it was all a fart.

The wine is strong and intimidating, and Liang Zhongdu's words quickly resonated with those present. What Mo Di didn't expect was that the big repercussions were actually Xiao Zhaopeng, the chief of staff of the 16th Group Army, who had never fought head-on with the Japanese, he was Su Zuxin's old department, when Su Zuxin went to the southern section of Jinpu Road, he returned to Longzhou as the commander-in-chief of the militia group, and it was not until the end of the Guinan War that he left Longzhou and entered the barracks again. Because he did not understand the situation, he not only did not have an intuitive feeling of the combat capability of the Japanese, but also did not have a correct understanding of the friendly forces fighting bloody battles on the front line of the Yangtze River.

A group of people, you and I said a word, and after talking for a long time, Liang Zhongdu's wine drank most of it, and there was no effective suggestion. Liang Wuya saw that Mo Di didn't speak, and asked Mo Di in a private whisper why, if he was embarrassed. Mo Di thought for a while and said to Liang Wuya: "Master Wuya should help me fight for a while and see how the luck goes." ”

Playing time, that is, calculating the time bureau, is the meaning of fortune telling. Liang Wuya smiled and took out a notebook, wrote the eight characters of Mo Di's birthday on it, and then half-squinted, with words in his mouth, the thumb of his left hand quickly dotted on the remaining four fingers, and finally returned to the state of speaking human words, and said: "This year, Tianzong must invite us to drink, and there is a star on his shoulder." ”

"Whew! This also requires you to say, we all know, and it's not a secret, this batch of make-up training classes came out, and all of them were major generals. If you count the eight characters, you will count these, and I don't need to learn it. Tang Ji smiled on the side and said, "You can do the math, the battle situation in western Hubei will go in that direction next." ”

Liang Wuya used a lot of proper nouns that were not human words to explain for a long time, and Mo Di finally understood, counting the eight characters and counting the fortune, and counting the things that happened in front of him, it was better to go straight to the hexagram. As for the battle situation in western Hubei, it is what is happening in front of us. smiled and said: "According to the words of Master Wuyan, Zhang Jiezhai (Zhang Ganzi)'s Tao is above you? ”

Liang Wuya's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said hurriedly: "Whether his Taoism is strong or not, I haven't compared, I only know how to make calculations, the first four pillars, as for the hexagram, it is only used as a supplement." Or Zhang Jiezhai will calculate whether you will fall and fight when you walk out of the door, but he can't calculate what future you will have in the next ten years or eight years. ”

Seeing that the discussion was going in this direction, Xu Qiming hurriedly turned his mouth and asked, "Tianzong, what do you think?" ”

Mo Di glanced at Xu Qiming, and when he saw Xu Qiming's sincere gaze that did not seem to be fake, he honestly said what he thought in his heart. The enemy believes that in the battle of Jianghan, although the water network is vertical and horizontal, it is a flat ocean, and the Japanese army has cavalry, chariots, tanks, and powerful firepower, and we do not have an advantage in frontal combat in this area. The current plan is to make room as much as possible, dilute the Japanese combat units, and then concentrate the forces and annihilate them one by one. At present, Sun Lianzhong is doing a good job. At the same time, Mo Di agrees with Wang Jinzai's approach, and the battle of taking the initiative and fighting on the mobile to annihilate the living forces of the Japanese army has always been advocated by Mo Enemy. It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and Wang Jinzai is unlucky, otherwise, with him stirring up trouble in the Jianghan Plain, the Japanese army will inevitably suffer a big loss. As for the way of Commander Sun Lianzhong's confrontation, Mo Di can understand, but he does not support it, of course, it is difficult for a skillful man to cook without rice, and the Sixth Theater does not have a team with strong mobility, high mobility ability, and active and independent combat ability, so that the Japanese army will be bullied again and again, and lose half of western Hubei in two months.

With Mo Dou's speech, a door was opened for everyone present, and soon an analysis of the battle plan was completed. What does the analysis report say, Mo Di is not interested, it is just a cliché, there will not be too much innovation, after all, innovation is a very dangerous thing, and most people are not interested in it.

At nine o'clock in the evening, a jar of three flowers was drunk, everyone was happy, Xu Qiming left Mo Di behind, and asked: "Does Tianzong have to return to the military academy tomorrow?" Mo Di shook his head and said: "According to the current situation, if the war situation in western Hubei is uncertain for a day, I can not return to school for a day, after all, this is what the Military Command Department asked me to come over." ”

"Then tomorrow at noon, you come to Fulong Prefecture after work, I want to ask you some questions, and by the way, find a restaurant in Bajiaotang for a light meal." Xu Qiming said.

Okay, I'll be on time tomorrow. Mo Wei saluted and left. What Chief Xu will find out about himself, and what intersection he will have with Chief Xu, Mo Di can't think of a clue. As soon as I looked up, I had already arrived at Xihua Gate, and before I knew it, I had circled most of the royal city.
