Datong, Second Theater Command.
Yan Laoxi was also extremely shocked when he heard about it. It was really shocking for the teacher in his twenties to say it.
I had mixed feelings at the moment. I should have been cruel enough to leave him here when he came last time.
Staff Officer Yang was waiting on the side, "Boss, you have troubled Lin Zhong several times, which has never happened before."
After staying with Yan Laoxi for a long time, I have heard countless stories about the famous generals. There are huge changes in transfers and promotions every year, but I have never seen the boss so distressed.
Yan Laoxi lit a cigar and murmured: "Lin Zhong is China's blessing and our army's misfortune."
He always had a bad premonition that the changes caused by Lin Zhong alone would be far more than that...
...
Dark night, Heiyun Village.
Even in the dark night, the training of the soldiers of Heiyun Village never stops.
Lin Zhong led groups of soldiers to train around the mountain. Each of the soldiers looked exhausted and hopeless, but Lin Zhong seemed to have no intention of stopping.
The leading soldier held a torch to light the way forward and followed Lin Zhong in front.
"Brothers! Speed up!"
"Run down, I'll arrange a supper for you tonight!"
"Let's have wontons tonight!"
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers looked excited, and their previous fatigue was instantly wiped away.
"accelerate!"
“I fought hard for the wontons!”
"Fight!"
...
This kind of training lasted about a week. In just one week, Lin Zhong improved the morale of the entire division by a large margin. During this period, all training was led by Lin Zhong.
Finally, on the eighth day, Lin Zhong collapsed in bed. Although it was all training, the fighters were rotated, but he was not rotated. It was equivalent to one person completing the training of four people, and he did not wake up until the next day.
Early the next morning, Lin Zhong prepared various things in the hall, including good wine and cigarettes in a big red gift box.
Li Yunlong, who was in the hall, was greedy for a moment when he saw it, and stepped forward to ask with a smile.
"Hey, sir, who is this good thing for? I'm so greedy for it."
Lin Zhong said calmly: "Old brigade commander."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yunlong's heart became cold and he immediately stayed away from the gift. The brow of the old brigade commander could not be touched. If the old man knew that he secretly drank his gift wine, he would not be able to wear shoes.
Lin Zhong couldn't help but smile when he saw Li Yunlong's appearance. It seemed that Old Li was really frightened by the old brigade commander.
"Hey, how can I forget you, Old Li." Lin Zhong then took out another bottle of the best Xinghuacun from the system space.
"then!"
A black-red wine jar was thrown to Li Yunlong and he caught it with both hands.
The moment he received the wine, Li Yunlong's eyes seemed to start to light up. He opened the lid of the wine and took a whiff. Hmm~
Up here!
"Hahaha! Thank you...I, Lao Li, thank you so much, sir!"
He almost cursed again, but fortunately, Lao Li stopped in time.
Lin Zhong suddenly asked: "Old Li, do you know where our old brigade commander has been transferred now?"
The old brigade commander previously served as the deputy commander of the 129th Division, but now he doesn't know where he has been transferred. He only knows that he is temporarily living in a side courtyard of the Daya Bay headquarters.
"Okay, I can only visit in person."
Suddenly I thought of the old brigade commander in the past, and thought that the old brigade commander would continue to serve as the deputy division commander. Then I turned around and thought, it would be really interesting to be the boss of old brigade commander i.
In the afternoon, Lin Zhong drove for a long time and finally got off his horse and arrived at the gate of the courtyard.
Before anyone could come out, Lin Zhong rushed into the courtyard.
"Old brigade commander, I'm here to see you."
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing glasses opened the door and came out. When he saw Lin Zhong, he was surprised and happy.
"Hahaha, come in quickly."
...
Goodbye, the two of them had already started drinking and talking.
"You kid, you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Tell me, come here to find me. What's the matter? You didn't create any trouble for me this time."
Thinking of this, the old brigade commander suddenly felt that the wine in his mouth no longer tasted good.
Lin Zhong was embarrassed for a moment, "Old brigade commander, do you really miss me that much?"
The old brigade commander nodded without hesitation, "Yes."
Lin Zhong: "..."
This time I really guessed wrong. I really just wanted to come and chat with the old brigade commander. If there was any real purpose, at most it was to know some of the boss's plans about the Kwantung Army from the brigade commander.
Lin Zhong explained half-heartedly but nothing else made the old brigade commander suspicious.
I always feel uneasy after drinking this wine...
"Oh, by the way, old brigade commander, I would like to ask, are you still a deputy now?" Lin Zhong couldn't help but ask.
The old brigade commander nodded, "Well, I'm still the deputy now."
While talking, he picked up the vegetables.
After saying this, Lin Zhong's eyes lit up.
Still a deputy! Does that mean that he is his boss now?
It seems that Lao Chen has not contributed much to the war during this period, and his promotion is so slow.
Seeing Lin Zhong's daze, the old brigade commander wondered, "What's wrong, kid? Come on, drink."
Lin Zhong smiled and said, "Haha, come on, Lao Chen."
"We won't go home until we get drunk today!"
"You don't have to think too much. You will become a full-time employee one day. We are all here to kill the Japanese. Don't worry about those false positions. Drink!"
Old brigadier: "..."
"Boy, did you misunderstand something?"
Lin Zhong was suddenly stunned, huh? Misunderstand...
What's the misunderstanding?
Your deputy teacher called me a boy? It’s inappropriate!
The Eighth Route Army has strict military discipline, and officers are never ranked according to their seniority and are only called according to their position.
"Old Chen, what misunderstanding do you mean?"
The old brigade commander narrowed his eyes slightly, Old Chen...
Is this what you call it?
"Boy, I think your wings are stiff again?"
As he spoke, the old brigade commander took out a piece of paper from his pocket with one hand. There was a large red seal of the headquarters fastened on the white paper with black words.
"You kid, see for yourself."
Lin Zhong was a little confused after drinking two more drinks, and opened the paper in a daze.
He only looked at it for a second, and in the next second he straightened up and straightened his back.
"Deputy Commander of the Column!"
"Old brigade commander, you are now promoted to deputy commander of the column!"
"Is this the deputy position you're talking about?"
Lin Zhong swallowed in shock. He originally thought that the deputy position the old brigade commander mentioned was from the deputy division commander, but who would have thought that it turned out to be the deputy position from the column!
Facing Lin Zhong's reaction, the old brigade commander didn't show any emotion at all. He just drank some wine with peanuts between his hands.
Lin Zhong just crossed his legs and saluted on the kang and didn't dare to say anything. The old brigade commander didn't dare to put it down without saying anything.
"Hmph, you've just been promoted to division commander and now you're here to show off your skills? You can call me Old Chen? Let's beat him first." With this thought, Old Chen continued stuffing peanuts into his mouth.
Ten minutes later, Lin Zhong's legs were a little numb, so he crossed his legs and saluted. What a shame!
At this time, the old brigade commander raised his head and smiled, returning to his harmless appearance.
"Huh? Lin Zhong, what are you doing standing there in a daze? Eat quickly, the wine that was finally hot will get cold after a while."
Lin Zhong: "..."
Okay, okay, did I not want to eat it? Can't you see I'm saluting all the time? If I moved my chopsticks just now, I dare say you would fall out with me!
"Ha ha..."
"Thank you, deputy commander."
People say that I, Lin Zhong, was promoted quickly, but you were not promoted slowly at all.
