Qiu Chan's first reaction was suspicion, and she was sure that Ding Wei was talking nonsense again.
"Old Ding, are you kidding me?" Qiu Chan asked.
"It's more real than real. I told the brigade commander that he is here to drink our wedding wine." Ding Wei said: "No matter how courageous I am, I don't dare to make fun of the brigade commander.
At that time, the two of us will handle the matter together with Li Yunlong, right after this exchange meeting."
Ding Wei's words were beyond Qiu Chan's expectation. Unexpectedly, Ding Wei immediately settled the matter.
In the following time, Qiu Chan would ask Ding Wei almost every other moment if this was true.
"Silly girl, why did I lie to you?" Ding Wei said helplessly: "If I really lied to you, the brigade commander wouldn't have shot me."
Only then did Qiu Chan give up.
"Qiu Chan, this time when various ministries come to communicate with our regiment, they must do a good job. At least they must make themselves look good in front of my old comrades."
Ding Wei was talking to himself, but found that Qiu Chan didn't seem to be listening at all.
"Qiu Chan, Qiu Chan?" Ding Wei shouted twice.
"Old Ding, you were not joking just now, will you really marry me?" Qiu Chan asked again.
Ding Wei: "..."
I've been talking for a long time, but she didn't hear anything.
"Did you say something just now?" Qiu Chan asked when seeing Ding Wei's doubtful expression.
"I said I will definitely marry you..." Ding Wei held his forehead and said again.
He really didn't expect that this incident would touch Qiu Chan so much.
"How about we discuss other things first?" Ding Wei asked tentatively.
Qiu Chan showed a sweet smile and said, "Okay, you say."
"Didn't I just say that the brigade commander is planning to hold an exchange meeting here?" Ding Wei asked.
Qiu Chan nodded: "I know, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job in security work."
"This is just one of them." Ding Wei said: "If our old comrades come over, we can't let them underestimate us. We have to show them what our 28th Brigade is capable of." Ding Wei said with a smile.
Ding Wei will definitely not miss this kind of thing where he can show his face in front of his old comrades!
Whether we can get them to cooperate honestly depends on whether this exchange meeting goes smoothly or not!
Leaving the matter to Qiu Chan, Ding Wei visited the field hospital on the eve of the exchange meeting.
"What the hell, your kid is also going to get married?" Li Yunlong's tone suddenly became higher.
Ding Wei said: "Why, can't I just get married?"
"With Qiu Chan?" Kong Jie asked cautiously.
"What else?" Ding Wei said: "I don't have any other women. If I dare to marry another woman, the brigade commander won't shoot me."
"Look, look." Kong Jie said sourly: "Damn it, Ding Wei, I asked you to help me find a wife, why don't you settle yourself first?"
Ding Wei laughed: "Look how impatient you are. It's not like I won't help you. Have you been single for too long and want to find someone to warm your bed?"
"Go, you are all in pairs, why don't I think about it?" Kong Jie said dissatisfied.
"Hey, Kong Er, you know that you already want a woman?" Li Yunlong said with a deliberate smile.
"You are full of men but don't know that men are hungry. In two years, your children will be able to play with guns." Kong Jie said: "So I can't be slow."
"Okay, okay, I will take the time to help you find a wife, and I will definitely satisfy you." Ding Wei comforted her.
"Old Ding, you came here today just to talk about your marriage, right?" Li Yunlong asked.
Kong Jie said: "That's right, you wouldn't go there personally to ask if something happened on the front line?"
Ding Wei shook his head and said: "No, it's just the brigade commander who wants to hold an exchange meeting."
"Exchange meeting?" Kong Jie and Li Yunlong had questions in their heads.
Ding Wei explained briefly.
"Good boy, I asked you to handle such a shameless matter. If I knew about it, I would ask the brigade commander to come to my place." Li Yunlong was a little jealous.
He is also a person who likes to join in the fun, not to mention that this time, he can show his face to the whole group and even the whole division.
"Come on, it's just you?" Kong Jie found an opportunity and mocked: "Ding Wei saved your life, how dare you let others come to visit you?"
Li Yunlong couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Kong Jie said again: "To communicate with people, you must have people with real abilities. What can your new group see? Do you have a big brain like yours?"
"Hey, you little Kong Erlang." Li Yunlong raised his head and said, "You are really willing to say anything to get Lao Ding to help you find a wife."
"What?" Kong Jie said dissatisfied: "What I said is true. Lao Ding has been showing off his face recently, and even Ping'an County has been demolished.
If we weren't worried about the Japanese siege, we would have recovered Ping'an County long ago."
"That's because I'm not good at it." Li Yunlong started bragging mode.
"Just you?" Kong Jie raised his eyebrows and said, "If you go up there, I'm afraid you'll have to ask Ding Wei to rescue you again."
"Ping'an County?" Li Yunlong said in a disdainful tone: "How can I like a small county?"
As he spoke, Li Yunlong said in an excited tone: "If you want me to fight, I will definitely go directly to Taiyuan and cut off the head of that bastard Shinozuka Yoshio!"
"You're really out of breath when you say you're fat." Kong Jie scolded with a smile: "You are the only one who wants to attack Taiyuan. Your troops are not enough to jam the Japanese defense line between your teeth."
"Go, go, go." Li Yunlong said unhappily, too lazy to talk to Kong Jie anymore.
"Old Ding, why does the brigade commander suddenly want to communicate with you?" Li Yunlong asked his confusion.
"It's because of killing. Old Ding is so powerful." Kong Jie said, "Why are you asking such nonsense?"
"Do you still remember Ping'an County before?" Ding Wei asked.
"Remember, who doesn't know about this?" Li Yunlong said.
"That's why." Ding Wei said: "The brigade commander wanted me to convey my combat experience to the various departments. Anyway, I haven't had much to do recently. By the way, I can share my military insights."
Ding Wei continued: "Our team has grown, and it's time to move towards formalization. We can't keep working on our own, as we won't be able to figure out anything.
Now there is another cunning Japanese, and the situation in each department is different, plus you two are negative examples.
Therefore, even if it is a battle, different tactics must be formulated according to the different situations of each army. I can't attack Ping'an County here.
Even if a small army wants to attack the county town, it is not a chicken egg versus a stone, the final result can only be a chicken flying egg."
"Did you hear that, Lao Li, I'm talking about you." Kong Jie said with a smile: "Ping'an County is not something you can attack if you want. Don't go there and die if you have nothing to do."
"Lao Kong, are you bothered?" Li Yunlong was told that he was anxious.
"What Lao Kong said is indeed true." Ding Wei said solemnly: "You think it will be easy for me to conquer this county, but in the end it will not be possible to cooperate with multiple parties?
Without my old comrades to help me stop the enemy and hold back a large number of Japanese troops, it would be very difficult for me to fight this battle."
Li Yunlong just shut up.
"There are still three days before the conference. I am here to inform you that the three of us will be together." Ding Wei said with a smile: "After all, the reputation of our Shanxi North Iron Triangle is not something we just talk about casually."
"oh?"
Kong Jie and Ding Wei's eyes lit up, how great it would be to be able to share the limelight together!
"After the exchange conference, we will get married together!" Ding Wei said solemnly: "Our old comrades-in-arms are all here, so this will be the finale!"
"Okay, Old Ding!" Li Yunlong grinned: "Let them envy us that we can marry a wife as beautiful as a flower, and we will covet them."
Li Yunlong is gearing up and wants to have a big fight.
Knowing that there was a lot of excitement, Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were not willing to stay in the hospital any longer, they just wanted to be discharged as soon as possible.
In fact, according to common sense, they should have been discharged from the hospital long ago, but the dean saw that they and Ding Wei were old comrades in arms, and thanks to Ding Wei's face, he allowed them to continue practicing.
Recently, the hospital bed has not been so tight, and I don’t need to take medicine. I just stay there.
After completing the discharge procedures, the three of them rushed to the 28th Brigade without stopping.
The two men were dismissed from their posts, and the original troops will definitely not be able to return, so they can only be temporarily replaced by political commissars.
But they acted as if nothing was wrong, and they didn't even look like they were being dismissed from their posts.
Kong Jie and Li Yunlong entered the Grand View Garden with the old lady. As soon as they entered the 28th Brigade, they followed the bandits and ran around, trying to find out what secrets the 28th Brigade had.
The remaining three days passed quickly amidst the three people's fights, laughter and curses, and the day of the exchange meeting soon came.
As for Ding Wei, he had also chosen his subjects. Apart from anything else, he had to impress his comrades who wanted to cause trouble and kill them with their prestige.
The day of the exchange meeting.
The 28th Brigade was very lively.
God is also very generous. The sun is shining brightly and there are no clouds in the sky. It is indeed a suitable place to pretend...
It is a good weather for communication.
Regiment-level and battalion-level cadres from various base areas came to the 28th Brigade base area one after another.
The base area was bustling with people and lively.
These regiment-level cadres are basically Ding Wei's old acquaintances, and they are basically all old comrades from when they were soldiers.
Dozens of regiment leaders, large and small, from the 771st, 772nd, and 773rd regiments, along with their capable battalion commanders and political commissars, came to participate in this exchange meeting.
Of course, they also brought a squad of top soldiers, and their purpose was self-evident.
Ding Wei is at the height of his power. Although they are all old comrades, they all want to kill Ding Wei's spirit.
One word to describe it is, angry.
He joined the army at about the same time, so why is this boy Ding Wei so powerful? We didn't realize that Ding Wei had such ability before.
The current 28th Brigade can be said to have assembled the backbone of the Shanxi Eighth Route Army.
All regiment leaders and political commissars are here. As a joke, if a plane drops a bomb at this time, it will directly record the combat capabilities of the Shanxi Eighth Route Army.
Ding Wei, Li Yunlong, and Kong Jie were standing at the door to receive guests.
Although they are all group leaders, some of them know each other and some do not. They are all chatting and bragging with their old acquaintances.
The contents of the conversations were also very similar.
How is the development of the army?
How many elite soldiers were found in the team?
How many cadres should be trained?
How much money have you made recently, and what achievements are there worth showing off?
Since the war started, the meeting times have been staggered, and sometimes they don't see their old comrades for a long time. Naturally, they are not willing to miss such a good opportunity.
"Hahaha, Lao Ding, Lao Li, Lao Kong!" Cheng Xiazi of the 772nd Regiment stepped forward and held the positioning hand.
"Old Ding, you have become so powerful recently." Blind Cheng said enviously: "As for the show, we are all waiting for you to come and give us lectures."
"Everywhere, it's all comrades who cooperate. Our 28th Brigade is nothing." Ding Wei said modestly.
"It's not about lectures, it's about everyone communicating with each other and discussing combat experience so that we can better fight against the Japs in the future."
Li Yunlong was unhappy. You were taught how to shoot by me, so you didn't need to call me "teacher" when you met. You just called me "Lao Li" and then you and Ding Wei chatted happily?
Although I, Li Yunlong, have been dismissed from my post, it is only temporary. Sooner or later, I will be able to return as the group leader.
"I said Cheng Xiazi, I asked you to come to exchange and study. How can you come up with so many words? Why don't you, Brigadier Niu, let everyone go to your place to study?" Li Yunlong said.
"Hey, I'm not as good as you, Lao Li. We know what level we are, so we came here to learn from you." Blind Cheng knew Li Yunlong's temper and was not fooled at all.
Cheng Xiazi was not in a hurry, but Li Yunlong heard Cheng Xiazi's sarcasm and said: "If you don't hurry up and become a student if you know how to study, why are you making trouble here?"
"Li Yunlong, why are you so awesome?" Cheng Xiazi said.
This guy has been dismissed from his post, but he turned out to be so awesome. If you didn't know better, you would have thought that he, Li Yunlong, was the protagonist this time.
"I taught you how to shoot the gun. You were the least savvy among the new recruits. You couldn't hit the 50-meter target accurately. It took you a week of shooting before you could barely hit it."
Li Yunlong said unceremoniously: "In order to let you practice shooting, I fired all my own bullets for you, so that your shooting skills improved. Otherwise, how do you think you got the reputation of being a blind man?"
Hearing Li Yunlong's voice, everyone looked over.
They also all know that Li Yunlong and Cheng Xiazi don't deal with each other and often quarrel. However, these are just minor conflicts between old comrades. After drinking together, this matter can be forgotten.
"Li Yunlong, are you annoyed that I keep bringing this up?" Cheng Xiazi said, "Isn't it just that I was slower in learning when I first started shooting?"
"If I hadn't taught you carefully, you would have gone home to farm a long time ago. How could you still be the leader?" Li Yunlong asked again.
"You have to thank me properly. If you can be the leader, I, Li Yunlong, must have half the credit for it."
The onlookers started making noises one after another, wanting Cheng Xiazi to practice with Li Yunlong, and whoever loses would be convinced.
But at some point, these spectators became more honest, quietly shut their mouths, and lined up obediently.
Cheng Xiazi's face changed, he straightened up unconsciously, and made a gesture towards Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong didn't understand why: "What are you doing, blind man Cheng? Now that you know you are a coward, what color can you use for me? You look like a coward. What are you afraid of? I can't really hit you?"
"Hey, what's going on with you?" Li Yunlong felt even more strange when he saw the queue.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie kept shaking their heads.
"Look at you guys like this, this time it's Old Ding who is the teacher, not the brigade commander." Li Yunlong grinned: "Who are you showing so neatly to?
The brigade commander is not here either. I can’t see you like this. You are all dispersed. Relax, don’t be so nervous. I will take you to visit the 28th Brigade later.”
No one in the team dared to move.
Gradually, Li Yunlong realized that something was wrong. Even Ding Wei could not make them be so honest.
He seemed to have thought of something, and his face looked a little ugly.
When he turned around, he saw the brigade commander behind him, with his hands behind his back and looking directly at him.
Hold!
"Brigadier!" Li Yunlong had a trace of cold sweat on his forehead and hurriedly stood up: "You...why are you here?"
