Chapter 263 Old Zhao has become a bad person
In this way, southern Shanxi spent a busy but relaxing Spring Festival. If it were not for the infantry divisions and armored divisions in various places re-entering intensive training, Li Yunlong and the common people would not even have been at war in China now.
Infected by Xiuqin's fiery passion, Li Yunlong could not resist and finally decided to marry Xiuqin on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
The wedding venue was not chosen at the most upscale Pingshun Hotel in the county, but at the auditorium of the textile factory.
"Old Li, why not hold it in the Pingshun Government Auditorium or the Pingshun Hotel?"
Li Yunlong shook his head. Although this was a happy event for him, most of the men in the independent column were still bachelors, so it would be inappropriate to hold a grand ceremony. He still chose to hold it in the textile factory.
The guests invited only included cadres at the division level and above of the Independent Column, plus County Magistrate Jia. As for Xiuqin's guests, they were only workers from the textile factory.
Therefore, the textile factory’s auditorium is more than enough.
The new house was just a dormitory vacated at the Pingshun Textile Factory, and of course it was only temporary.
For Li Yunlong's safety, Zhao Gang repeatedly insisted that Xiuqin and Li Yunlong move to the villa area in the economic development zone to live with those professors and experts who were under key protection.
A simple and solemn wedding was held as scheduled in the auditorium of the textile factory. The witness was naturally Zhao Gang, and in the small room behind the auditorium of the textile factory, there was naturally another witness: the commander of the 386th Brigade.
Zhao Gang cleared his throat and stood in front of the loudspeaker.
"Dear guests, dear relatives and friends, thank you for coming to the wedding of Comrade Li Yunlong and Comrade Yang Xiuqin and sending them the most sincere blessings. Comrade Li Yunlong is a time-tested revolutionary fighter, and Yang Xiuqin is also a young cadre of the Women's Federation and an excellent textile worker. Their union is natural!"
The crowd burst into applause.
"Comrade Li Yunlong and I have been working together for a long time, and his personal problems have not been resolved. Of course, it's not that Li Yunlong is unhappy, but he feels that our mission has not been completed and we should not be sentimental! But I think that's wrong!"
"Why not? Because true revolutionary sentiment will not only not affect our great cause of the war of resistance, but will also inspire us to kill more devils! The wife works hard to make cloth and bullets in the rear, while the husband kills the enemy at the front line. Think about it, what a wonderful scene! What's more, if we have a son or a daughter, they will also take up the banner of revolution in the future, right?"
The crowd burst into warm cheers again.
Li Yunlong looked at the heartfelt smiles of the cadres and fellow workers in the textile factory, and his hands, which had been clenched into fists with nervousness, slowly loosened.
The psychological burden finally disappeared.
Zhao Gang's words put the truth simply and clearly. It is better to speak out clearly than to hide it.
Next, Li Yunlong and Xiuqin went on stage amid cheers.
Li Yunlong was dressed in military uniform, but he wore casual clothes, while Xiuqin wore a bright red cotton jacket.
The two newlyweds bowed to the guests, and then toasted to each table. The marriage was considered complete.
But at this time, Wang Meng was not seen at the dinner table.
At this time, Wang Meng was walking around the textile factory, looking for any suspicious people, because the scene of the surprise attack on Zhaojiayu was still vivid in his mind, and that day was the night of Li Yunlong's wedding.
Lin Shubing found Wang Meng in the boiler room of the textile factory.
"Hey, you here to fire up the boiler?"
"I came to check it out. I always feel uneasy. After all, Sister Xiuqin's incident happened on the night of our wedding!"
Lin Shubing burst out laughing and patted Wang Meng on the shoulder.
"Don't worry, this is Pingshun County, not Zhaojiayu, and Yamamoto has already been killed by us!"
Wang Meng nodded. He checked along the way and indeed did not find any clues.
In addition, armored vehicles were arranged to patrol the areas adjacent to the Japanese-controlled areas to strengthen the vigilance force.
At the same time, a large number of plainclothes scouts were deployed around the textile factory to provide security.
If Li Yunlong had not thought it was an unnecessary fuss and strongly opposed it, Wang Meng would have insisted on arranging several heavy machine guns in the auditorium and even arranged a platoon of soldiers at the door of the new house.
Overall, foolproof.
Wang Meng rubbed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
"I hope I'm overthinking it!"
"You must be overthinking it. Let's go and have a drink. We have to get Old Li drunk today!"
When Wang Meng returned to the auditorium, Li Yunlong was circling the tables of the independent column.
"Mengzi, you're finally here. Without you, I can't enjoy my wine to my heart's content! Do you still remember the second day you came to our army, I made you beg for mercy after drinking so hard?"
When Wang Meng saw the joyful Wang Meng, as well as Zhao Gang, Dai Anlan, Zhang Dabiao and others holding wine bowls, all the worries in his heart disappeared.
"Things are different now, Lao Li! Come on and have a go!"
Wang Meng tilted his head back and drank a large bowl of Fenjiu.
Zhao Gang was also afraid that everyone would force Li Yunlong to drink, so he immediately arranged for everyone to drink together.
"Lü Tianlong, you have to toast General Chennault. I heard that your two teams had a combat exercise and you lost? If you don't toast, can he teach you the trick of the old cat climbing a tree?"
Lu Tianlong lost both combat exercises, but he accepted the defeat with all his heart.
"General Chen, I did it! Please guide me more often in the future."
Seeing that Lu Tianlong drank it all generously, Chennault followed suit and started drinking from the bowl. However, the Fenjiu liquor was so spicy that it made him cry.
"Lee, your wedding wine is too spicy!"
Chennault quickly fanned his mouth with his hands. His funny appearance made everyone laugh, even the serious Lin Shubing laughed.
"Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, Wang Huaibao, don't laugh, you three have to drink one, you are all armored troops, you can't touch one?"
There is nothing to say about these three men. They were enemies when they were in the independent regiment, and now they are all in the armored unit. What a fate!
The three wine bowls collided with each other and the wine gurgled down their stomachs.
"Old Ding, Old Kong, Old Xing, and the three of you, the commanders of the three newly formed infantry divisions, shouldn't you drink one?"
Ding Wei looked at Zhao Gang who was still urging people to drink and pointed with his finger.
"Old Zhao, you were not like this when you graduated from the Anti-Japanese University. At that time, whenever Li Yunlong drank, you were so angry that you wanted to smash the bottle. Why did you become like this now? Are you trying to persuade others to drink?"
"That's right, Lao Zhao! You've been led astray by Li Yunlong!"
At this time, the honest man Lao Xing came out and laughed.
"Lao Zhao, if we're going to drink, let the four of us drink. After all, we're all comrades in arms!"
"Hahaha, Lao Xing, you are awesome. You blame me for this! Are you bullying me because I can't drink? Come on, have a drink!"
The four of them happily drank the wine.
Just as the independent column was gathering together, the Japanese Taiyuan Headquarters was also brightly lit.
