Yu Chenglong glanced at everything on the wine table casually, and saw that these three people were still very greedy for drinking, especially Xiao Qiu. He had no intention of leaving the wine table when he felt comfortable drinking, even though such an occasion was not suitable for drinking.
Of course, Song Dali and Wu Baochuan just want to accompany Xiaoqiu. They know that Xiaoqiu likes to drink and not accompanying him well may cause his dissatisfaction. This is not good for messing around in Qinghe County. After all, they are the real masters.
"Let's just drink this drink and cheers to the Imperial Japanese Army!"
Xiao Qiu was already a little unsteady on his feet, but he was not too drunk. He was one of the few drunkards in the Japanese army. Even though today was not going well, his greed for wine was still as strong as ever.
"It's my turn to pick up the last glass of wine. It's fate that we can meet each other. It would be even more fortunate if we can work together well again."
Yu Chenglong, who was already lying on the bed, walked to the table and said to Xiaoqiu and the other two: "I'd like to toast you three. Come on, change the bowls to big ones and pour them for us. I wish us a happy cooperation!"
The waiter poured wine into the bowls of the four of them. Yu Chenglong touched it with the three of them, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. The three of Xiaoqiu also took a big sip to varying degrees.
But it was really difficult to drink such a large bowl in one gulp. Xiaoqiu stood up unsteadily, waved his hand and said he didn't want to drink anymore. He wanted to bow politely and say goodbye, but he couldn't stand firmly.
Song Dali and Wu Baochuan asked the waiters to clear the table quickly and wait for Jackie Chan to rest, while helping Xiaoqiu stagger out of the house, but Xiaoqiu didn't even say a decent greeting.
After the waiter finished cleaning up the room, he brought in the commode and then walked out knowingly. At the same time, the sound of the door being locked was heard from outside. Yu Chenglong walked to the window and looked at the moving figures inside and outside the courtyard, thinking that it was really heavily guarded.
So Yu Chenglong turned around, turned off the lights, took off his shoes and top, and lay down to sleep. Although he couldn't fall asleep right away, Yu Chenglong felt much clearer. He guessed that Bi Ming, Jiao Cheng and others might have started taking action now.
In the quiet night, darkness oppressed the earth and spread unbridled. Yu Chenglong wanted to drink some wine to fall asleep quickly, but he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. His mood was heavier than the night, and he was thinking about the next step.
It was almost midnight, and Yu Chenglong still didn't fall asleep. He hoped that Bi Ming, Jiao Cheng and the others could carry out the operation smoothly as planned and give the little devil a disincentive! to better facilitate the next action plan.
Just as I fell asleep, when the sky was approaching the fourth watch, fierce gunfire came from Qinghe County, which did not gradually subside until the fifth watch. Yu Chenglong felt a little relieved knowing that Bi Ming and Jiao Cheng were acting according to plan.
In the morning, Yu Chenglong didn't get up and dress until someone brought him face wash and food. He washed his face calmly and started to eat breakfast slowly. It seemed that he was in a good mood today.
"Scattered bandits attacked the county last night. Taijun was very tired and said that he could not negotiate with you again until after ten o'clock. Let me inform the counselor first."
While the waiter was serving Jackie Chan for breakfast, he conveyed the words of the official. Of course, he was careful. He was afraid of making Jackie Chan unhappy, because Song Dali and others asked him not to make Jackie Chan angry.
Yu Chenglong didn't speak, nodded slightly, and continued to eat breakfast. He thought that there might be preliminary results today, and hoped that God would follow people's wishes and rescue the brothers and fellow villagers from the Holy Way Association and return home safely.
Just after ten o'clock, Song Dali and Wu Baochuan hurriedly came to pick up Jackie Chan. It seemed like they hadn't slept well either, maybe because they had been busy until now, because they all seemed listless.
Although it was not the county compound that was attacked last night, as county magistrates and county counselors, Song Dali and Wu Baochuan were still too scared to sleep. After the incident subsided, they had to go to the scene to see the situation to appease Xiaoqiu and other police officers. .
Therefore, Song Dali and Wu Baochuan both looked very tired, but they would not tell Jackie Chan the real situation, although they speculated that the matter might also be related to Jackie Chan. Of course Yu Chenglong would not ask, he simply packed up and left with Song Dali and the others.
The three of them were escorted by several Manchurian soldiers and walked to the living room of the county government office. They were heavily guarded along the way. When I walked into the building, I saw a line of Japanese soldiers with loaded ammunition along the side of the stairs, all the way to the door of the living room on the second floor. The atmosphere was even more tense and gloomy than yesterday.
Yu Chenglong guessed that there might be more heavyweight figures appearing today. Maybe this was a good thing? Sure enough, as soon as he reached the door of the living room on the second floor, a Japanese general appeared.
"Haha..., haha... we are indeed old friends. General Yu, you are well!"
A man wearing the uniform of a Japanese major general came out of the living room and kept slapping haha. Before he even came close, his hand was already stretched out, and he seemed very polite to Jackie Chan, as if he were greeting an old friend.
"Oh... it's General Yoshida. I haven't seen you for a few days. He has been promoted. Congratulations! Congratulations!"
Yu Chenglong recognized this person as Yoshida, the chief representative of the Japanese and Manchurian parties during the Dulongshan negotiations. At that time, he was still in the rank of colonel. Just one year later, he was promoted to major general. It seems that the Japanese emperor also likes to grant appointments and make wishes.
"General Yu left Dulongshan without saying goodbye. I miss him very much. I don't want to see you again here. It's a great honor!"
Yoshida even called Yu Chenglong "general" and held Yu Chenglong's hand like an old friend. The purpose is a bit puzzling. Is it just to show that he has been promoted to general?
Also, the etiquette he used when meeting Jackie Chan today was not the bowing etiquette often used by the Yamato people. Instead, he held hands. This was somewhat surprising, but his attitude was cordial and sincere.
"Friends always have a chance to meet. Didn't I come to your door myself? Yu Chenglong is very pleased that General Yoshida can come to meet him in person. After all, we are old acquaintances."
Yu Chenglong also shook hands with Yoshida enthusiastically, but he was still so calm and unhurried, showing no restraint at all. The same graceful behavior made Yoshida smile even more.
"Friend, great friend, I hope we can cooperate again, General Yu please!"
Entering the living room, Yoshida moved Yu Chenglong to his seat, and he sat opposite. Song Dali, Wu Baochuan and Xiaoqiu sat in the back row of him. However, Xiaoqiu's arms and head were wrapped in bandages today. It looked like he was seriously injured and he was a little downcast.
"Cooperate again, haven't we been cooperating all the time? Our team has been handed over to you, and they are now serving the Manchu Empire and the Imperial Army. As for me personally, I am used to being unrestrained. I don't want to look for troubles in the world anymore, and I am dedicated to the Tao. "
Yu Chenglong looked around and laughed with Yoshida. He saw that the newly hung decorations today had brought some changes to the county hall, especially the banner of 'Japan-Manchu Friendship', which brought more harmony to the county hall. atmosphere.
