The famous American five-star general MacArthur once said.
When the war is over, politicians are popping champagne to celebrate, businessmen are smoking cigars and counting money, and only mothers are looking for their children.
One word becomes a prophecy.
Southern Burma.
Capital.
The Wei family, who had nothing to do, held a celebration banquet.
As family friends, the patriarchs of the other three major families were very considerate, and all of them came to visit without exception.
Wei Bangxiong, the head of the Wei family, has shaken off the decadence he had felt a while ago, looking moist and energetic.
“Look, people feel refreshed during happy events. All diseases are caused by the heart. At our age, the most important thing is to maintain our mentality. If our mentality is good, our body will not have problems.” Bai Suocheng, the head of the Bai family, laughed.
"Cheng is right, Bang Xiong, the disease should have been cured by now, right?" The head of the Bao family looked at him jokingly.
"I've made some old friends worried. My health is fine and I can have a few drinks today."
Wei Bangxiong said with a smile. He is worthy of being a hero-level figure, even after the experience of the white-haired man It was extremely painful to send the black-haired man away, but he still seemed to have come out of the deep valley.
"Haha, of course, we came here today not just for drinking."
The head of the Liu family laughed loudly,
"Where is Wei Hong? Not yet. Come back?”
Bai Suocheng looked around.
The Wei family held a banquet in the mansion to celebrate Wei Bangxiong's recovery from illness. The four major families and many Burmese dignitaries were present. Eight tables were set up, which was a very auspicious number. However, no one from the Wei family was seen. The young lady, Wei Hong, known as the Queen of Electronic Fraud, appeared.
"Don't worry about her."
When it comes to the eldest daughter, Wei Bangxiong seemed to feel bad luck and asked his eldest son to pour wine for the three patriarchs.
"Still sitting, pouring cups for some uncles."
"After all, we are a family. As parents, there is no need to be angry with our children. Azu, please advise your father more." The head of the Liu family advised like a good old man.
“Actually, as elders, we can understand Wei Hong’s feelings. The Hengdeli Group did spend a lot of effort on her. Without her and Ali, the Hengdeli Group would not be the same. Today, no one would be able to balance his heart."
Maybe it was because he heard the name of his dead son again, which pricked the scars in his heart, the smile on Wei Bangxiong's face was slightly distorted. Click.
"Bangxiong, ask Wei Hong to come back."
Listening to the good words of the old guys, Wei Bangxiong remained calm on the surface, but he was sneering in his heart.
Before.
They were the ones who took advantage of the situation and forced him to dismiss Hong'er.
Now it is the same person who made Hong'er come back with your words and my words.
"You have watched Wei Hong grow up. As uncles and uncles, you may know less about her character than me, as a father. Now that she is gone, how can she come back easily."
The three family heads exchanged glances with each other, and finally it was left to Bai Suocheng, who had the closest relationship with the Wei family, to speak.
"Bangxiong, it's not easy for a woman to fight alone outside."
Not to mention Wei Bangxiong, even the eldest son Wei Zu who was sitting with him could hear the threat contained in his Uncle Bai's words.
Since the last time the father and the second sister had a bad fight in front of several business owners, the second sister who was suspended decisively left her job and used her many years of business and experience in the electronic fraud industry to start a new business, and Poached a considerable part of Hendry's backbone.
Outsiders will definitely not know about the high-level transactions of the four major families. They only think that Wei Hong, the eldest daughter of the Wei family, wants to open up new markets, so those from Hengdeli will not have any burden when they leave, but their departure , undoubtedly giving the three major families a headache.
The Wei family paid a huge price for this timely help. Part of the control of the Hengdeli Group was one of the benefits ceded. Now that Wei Hong has taken away a large number of backbones, how can the business be carried out? ?
Even.
The three major families may still suspect that this is a bitter trick played by the Wei father and daughter.
On the surface, the plank road is built openly, but in fact, it is secretly used to build a new Hengdeli.
"Bang Xiong, if you can't save face, I can do it for you. I'll go and persuade Wei Hong."
Bai Suocheng spoke.
If others dared to play like this and treat them like monkeys, they would have died long ago without a burial place, and they would have been beaten into a hornet's nest with random gunshots. However, Wei Hong's surname is Wei after all, so she still has to save some face, and it would be best if she could resolve it peacefully.
Wei Zu glanced at his father.
The three major families seem to be in harmony, but in fact they are clearly putting pressure on their father.
"There is no need to trouble Uncle Bai, I will go and persuade Wei Hong."
He helped his father take the pressure off.
"That's okay. Azu and Wei Hong are brothers and sisters. They are easy to talk to and are more suitable than us." The head of the Liu family nodded with a smile, a typical smiling tiger.
"Guys, your attention right now should not be on Wei Hong. She is just a junior, and her biggest enemy is the Allied Forces."
Wei Bangxiong spoke.
"Although we drove them out of Pingli, they were not completely eliminated. They can threaten our safety at any time."
The three heads of the family all became The clever fox didn't know that he was changing the subject.
They were fighting to the death with the Allied forces in the front, but your daughter was hiding in the back and growing secretly, right?
"Bang Xiong, it has been so long, you should have calmed down. The battle in Pingli has cost us a lot. Of course, the Allies are not feeling well either. This time, we have already shown our majesty. , If it continues, both sides will suffer, and others will benefit in the end."
"Old Bai, do you mean to just let it go?" Wei Bangxiong frowned, "We are just here. Drive the Allied forces past Mujiang and just stop like this?”
“Bangxiong, such a victory is not easy. How long did Kanbang hold out against the Allied forces?” , Protecting Pingli and all the territory behind Pingli, isn't such a victory significant enough? Fighting across the river with the Allied Forces is the best choice at this time."
"Yes, war. It’s a crematorium, burning not only human lives, but also money, Bangxiong, everything is based on the overall situation.”
Faced with the collusion of the three masters, Wei Bangxiong was not surprised.
Had it not been for the death of his son, cutting off his body to ask for help, and forcing his daughter to run away, he would have agreed that enough was enough.
"I, Wei Bangxiong, am not a person who only cares about his own selfish desires."
He picked up the wine glass and said, "Thank you, old guys, for your help this time."
"You're welcome."
"It should be."
"One family does not speak the language of two families."
The three heads of the family raised their wine glasses without any shame.
"Ming Jin withdraws his troops. I support it. If we continue to fight, the cost will be too great. I don't care on my own, but I can't drag you down."
Wei Bangxiong raised his head and drank it all. , putting down one or two glasses, "But if we are willing to cease fire, will the Allied Forces be willing to give up? This is war. It cannot be stopped by one party if it wants to."
"A slap cannot make a sound, and we feel pain. The same goes for the Allies. The price they paid is no less than ours. I think we can try it."
"Let's talk first and then wait and see."
As the victor, we actually want to negotiate. , It's unreasonable, but this is what is called Chengfu, and it's scheming.
Isn’t it comfortable to make good money?
Why do you have to fight so hard?
Three to one, Wei Bangxiong had no room for objection at all. His face was expressionless, his eyes were empty, and he nodded slowly: "Okay, but I have a request."
"What request?"
"Let Wei Yi come to Li'er's grave in person to make amends."
Wei Bangxiong was quite reasonable. He only said he would apologize, not that he would be buried.
The three masters were silent and looked at each other.
The west bank of Mujiang River.
The nurse is changing Wei Yi's dressing.
The adjutant of the Confederate Army was indeed a man. He was naked from the waist up, showing his muscles as strong as iron. He said nothing and did not even frown.
The nurse carefully applied the medicine and rewrapped the gauze.
After all, we are on the front line.
And also experienced a huge defeat.
Medical resources are very tight.
"If Adjutant Wei had the habit of wearing body armor, he would not have been injured."
The nurse who finished her work exhaled, then picked up the tray and left in a hurry. There are still many wounded waiting.
Wei Yi put on clothes to cover his powerful upper body.
"Remember the lesson this time." He grinned, "Thank you, Mr. Xing, for saving your life."
Bullets have no eyes.
In the hail of bullets, if the other party hadn't reminded him and pulled him, the bullet might have hit his heart instead of his chest.
“For safety reasons, Adjutant Wei should not stay here.”
“Mr. br>"What I mean is, you may need to take a good rest."
Xing Jie said calmly.
Wei Yi failed as a commander, but he was not injured.
Same.
Wei Yi paid special attention to his safety.
"Mr.
Times make heroes.
I originally thought I could take this opportunity to avenge my past shame and make a name for myself, but unexpectedly it backfired. After my second visit to Pingli, I suffered a series of setbacks, and was eventually driven out of Mujiang.
Even Kanbang is like chopping melons and vegetables,
A little Pingli is grinding his teeth like this.
I can only say that "luck" is indeed unpredictable.
"Adjutant Wei, don't be under too much psychological pressure. Victory and defeat are commonplace for military personnel. Moreover, the result this time was not a crime of war. It would not have been better if it had been replaced by five-star General MacArthur. ”
Wei Yi smiled even more. Unexpectedly, the distinguished guest, who had always been serious about words and speech, actually had a humorous side.
"Even if it is not a crime of war, I and Ping Li seem to be incompatible."
Wei Yi turned his head and looked outside the house, which was in the direction of the east bank of Mujiang River.
Immediately, he withdrew his gaze, "I will report to the general and change the commander."
"Report."
The sentry walked in quickly.
Wei Yi frowned, feeling nervous for no reason.
Could it be that the Independent Battalion really fought across the river?
Impossible.
Even if the Independent Battalion was really desperate, the sentries he arranged along the Mujiang River must have discovered it long ago.
"What's going on?"
The strength of the independent battalion somewhat cast a shadow on the Allied adjutant.
"Mr. Xu has arrived with support."
Wei Yi perked up and said, "Please come in, Mr. Xu!"
After saying that, he stood up to greet him. Xing Jie stopped him, "Adjutant Wei is injured, let me go."
Xing Jie stood up, walked outside the house, and met Xu Kuan who was leading people to support him.
“You’re lucky.”
Xu Kuan looked up and down and teased.
For people like them, accidents may happen at any time, and they are always fully prepared mentally for this.
"Master Jin is not here?" Xing Jie asked.
Xu Kuan shook his head, "His mission is not to charge into the battle."
Xing Jie led him inside, "How many people did you bring?"
"A brigade. ”
A brigade.
According to the configuration of the Allied forces, there are more than a thousand people.
"Not enough."
"There is no way. It takes time to recruit people. We have sent several brigades here before, so we can't get more people." Xu Kuan asked as he walked: "Is Pingli really so difficult to chew on?" ?”
“It’s not Pingli, it’s the four major families. These four families have been able to dominate Burma for so many years.”
Xing Jie said calmly: "If we can't eat them in one go, Pingli may become a meat grinder that never stops spinning."
"Isn't it enough to add another brigade?" Xu Kuan asked.
“The four major families also have logistical supplies.”
Xu Kuan smiled and said no more because he had already entered the house.
"Is Adjutant Wei okay?"
"Father and flesh injuries, Mr. Rausch is worried." Wei Yi stood up immediately.
“Adjutant Wei leads the way and is extremely brave, which is really admirable.”
Wei Yi looked ashamed, "Mr. Xu over-praised the defeated general."
"The victory or defeat is just a temporary victory, it does not mean the final victory or defeat..."
"Report!"
Before Xu Kuan finished speaking, the sentry ran in again.
Wei Yi's face was dark, but before he could speak, the sentry loudly shouted: "The Independent Battalion sent people over, saying they wanted to meet the general."
Independent Battalion?
The three people in the room looked at each other subconsciously.
"Adjutant Wei, please let people in first." Xu Kuan said.
“Let him in.”
After a while, the envoy of the Independence Battalion walked into the house under the close supervision of two sentries.
"What's the matter?"
Wei Yi looked indifferent.
"I have been ordered to negotiate peace with your department. This is a personal letter from our commander-in-chief."
The sentry handed over a piece of paper on his behalf.
"Many days of conflict have resulted in heavy casualties on both sides of us. In order to stop the unnecessary sacrifices, our department has sent me to come and have peace talks with your department, turn enemies into friends, and use Mujiang as the boundary. We should make friends and not invade each other."
Wei Yi read the letter while listening, and then handed it to Xu Kuan.
"Mr. Xu, take a look."
Xu Kuan didn't even look at it, he handed it directly to Xing Jie, and then put his hand into his arms.
“Bang!”
An extremely dull gunshot.
The peace envoy's brain exploded, his eyes widened, and he fell straight to the ground in an instant.
Not to mention the sentry, even Wei Yi was confused.
"Mr. Xu, this is..."
The two countries are at war, and they don't want to kill the envoy!
Xu Kuan, who seemed gentler than Xing Jie, slowly put down his gun.
"Adjutant Wei, if you are okay, you can prepare a new battle plan."
Xing Jie, who had not had time to read the letter, simply stopped reading it. Crumpling the paper into a ball with one hand, "The number of people is insufficient, more troops are needed."
"There are no soldiers."
Xu Kuan looked at the miserable body on the ground, "The plane is enough Not enough.”(End of Chapter)
