The 18th day of the first lunar month was the wedding day that Deng Chenggong chose for Xu Mingyuan. On this day, the lively scene of Dachenzhuang was no worse than that of the county town outside. In addition, important personnel from all over the country wearing various military uniforms brought some soldiers to the station. The entire Dachenzhuang looked more like a military camp rather than a wedding banquet at a glance.

Compared to Xu Mingyuan, the groom, who stood at the door, his face was almost numb. Deng Chenggong, who came with Hu Guangzong and other column officers behind him, also means that there should be no other guests behind him. When Deng Chenggong walked into the reception hall of Chenjiazhuang and saw representatives of various forces sitting on their own, Deng Chenggong felt that these people did not seem to be here to attend the wedding banquet, but were a bit like negotiations. He stared at him one by one, which made Deng Chenggong, who walked into the reception hall, feel really interesting.

‘Commander Deng is here!’

As the soldiers standing guard in front of the living room, the sound of vibrating the roof tiles sounded, and representatives of various forces sitting in the living room looked at Deng Chenggong who was walking into the living room. Looking at the green uniform of the militia column and the dazzling rank of major general on his shoulders, the representatives of the National Government felt a little uncomfortable.

When did the National Government accept his fate, these guys dared to give him the title of rank, and they were also the rank of major general. You said you wanted to show off, but there was no need to do it so obviously. You glanced over. Good guy, four major generals and a group of colonels and lieutenant colonels, how can you let the National Government represent you feel!

But no matter how dissatisfied I was, the representative of the government was not good at saying anything in this situation today. He had known it since then. In today's territory in North China, the strength of the militia column can be said to be the top. Although the national army stationed here only had a small fight with them, from the government's government orders that only people recognize in the county towns, it is useless when they arrive at the townships below, let alone in the countryside, it can be seen that the column does have the capital to hold the title.

Deng Chenggong said in a low-key manner about the various expressions revealed in the eyes of representatives of all parties: "I'm really sorry, because the column has a lot of military affairs, and I've been busy until now. It's not worth waiting for you for a long time. I'll drink and apologize when I go to the end!"

It was a second year since he came to this era. Deng Chenggong learned some of the scenes. Although these words were always a little awkward when he said them, he was on the position of commander of the column and on this ground, no one dared to pick him.

Representatives from all parties also politely refused Deng Chenggong's apology. All kinds of praises were just open. If it were others who listened to these nonsense words that "Commander Deng is worthy of being a role model for a generation of soldiers", they were so happy that they could not find the edge. Deng Chenggong ignored this kind of praise, but he still had to be polite.

Because the auspicious time is almost here, Xu Mingyuan chose a Chinese wedding, so once Deng Chenggong arrived, it means that the wedding ceremony could begin.

When Deng Chenggong, the host of marriage, personally invited Lin Meiting's parents and sat in front of the main seat, Lin's father and mother's favor for the young commander naturally doubled. Although they knew that the militia column was extremely powerful, when they heard the butler tell them about the congratulations today, Lin's father felt that marrying his daughter to Xu Mingyuan was simply amazing. He originally thought that his daughter had found a pretty good husband, but he didn't expect that the government far away in Nanjing had sent representatives. Lin's father, who knew what this meant, was naturally very happy.

After the two elders sat down, Deng Chenggong also shouted happily: "I'll invite the bride and groom to make a brilliant appearance!"

Once these words were heard, the representatives of all parties who had never seen such a marriage ceremony were naturally stunned, but some officers in the column could not help but burst into laughter. Even Lin's mother was stunned for a moment and laughed happily. Because of Deng Chenggong's voice, the joyful atmosphere in the entire lobby undoubtedly increased a lot.

Compared with the representatives of all parties waiting in the lobby, Lin Meiting, who was waiting in the wing room next to the lobby, was accompanying her and a few of her best friends who received the invitation, observing Deng Chenggong's every move through the quietly opened window. When they heard Deng Chenggong's roar, all the girls present laughed and thought that this commander, who looked quite strict, seemed to be a man who was still funny!

Lin Meiting looked at a group of best friends and smiled and said enthusiastically: "Sisters, how are you? Is this partner I'm looking for for you good?"

Lin Meiting, who was dedicated to the matchmaker, had been saying a lot of good things for Deng after these best friends arrived. In short, she said everything she could praise, but without seeing the real person, these best friends with high vision had no reaction. Now the object of introducing them appeared, so naturally the old words were asked again.

Three girls with the same slim figure standing beside her, one of whom was quiet and sweet, nodded and said, "Well, this person looks pretty good, very different from the generals I have ever met. Most of the major general-level officers I have ever met are rude. This is the first time I have seen such a gentle and gentle general. But Sister Meiting, is he really very terrifying in war?"

Maybe from her, most of the generals who have experienced wars are big and strong, otherwise how could they be better than others on the battlefield?

When Lin Meiting saw that Qi Baihe, the youngest of the four, seemed to be interested in Deng Chenggong, she said excitedly: "Xiaohe, don't look at Deng Si's gentleness, I heard from my Mingyuan that he was more cruel than anyone else when he killed someone. I believe you all know that Mingyuan's parents' revenge was avenged by Commander Deng. Mingyuan also followed that time, and he said he had never seen anyone killing someone so cleanly.

Besides, you have seen the soldiers standing at my door to protect me these two days, have you seen their strength? But these soldiers are not that true compared to Commander Deng. In their words, they will definitely not be able to take three moves in Commander Deng’s hands in one-on-one situation. So, don’t underestimate his force.”

For the two soldiers who had always protected Lin Meiting, these three girls brought more serious guards from their homes when they traveled. But these guards dared not speak loudly in front of these soldiers. In the words of the guards, if these two soldiers appeared on the battlefield, they could be called masters of one or a hundred soldiers.

However, when Qi Baihe heard Deng Chenggong killing so hard, he said with some fear: "Will someone who looks so gentle can kill people?"

Uh! Lin Meiting never expected that her introduction was frustrated with Qi Baihe's fear. But thinking about the character of this fourth sister, she usually feels that even stepping on an ant is a sin. This murder is undoubtedly the most difficult thing for her to accept.

Fortunately, Lin Meiting didn't need to explain this time. The eldest sister Qi Rumei, who has a cold temperament, said calmly: "As a soldier, if you can't even kill anyone, then you are still a soldier? Fourth sister, you really have to change your personality well. Maybe one day you will understand that killing people in such a chaotic world may be a blessing to the people.

Not to mention the more, are the Japanese who occupy our Northeast now killed fewer people? I think there are fewer generals like General Deng who dares to kill people in the army now. If there are more generals who have experienced such dangers, I think the Japanese would not be so arrogant."

With the elder sister's help, Lin Meiting immediately responded: "The elder sister is right. In fact, Mingyuan told me that Commander Deng will always be a stranger in the battlefield. But in private, the people's evaluation of Commander Deng is that he has never seen that an official would be so polite to them and other ordinary people.

Sometimes, you can't even believe that when Commander Deng goes downstairs to inspect, he often carries water and chops wood for the people in the village. Have you ever seen or heard of such a general? You may think he is doing a show, but as long as Commander Deng lives in the village, you will find a commoner and they will tell you when Commander Deng has done farm work for whom he has carried water and chopped wood.

At first, I didn't understand why he, a dignified column commander, still had to do such things. But Commander Deng told me that only by narrowing the distance between the troops and the people, people will trust and support you.

When people say empty words and shout slogans, the people are more willing to see them and officers do something practical for them. Even if it is a mere thing about carrying water, the people will think that you are doing things for them, and will not feel that they are so arrogant and cannot be raised."

‘Yes, I think this is reasonable. Now some senior military and political officials in China shout more slogans than anyone else. But after shouting the slogans, they ignore the lives and deaths of the people. I think Commander Deng is indeed very different from the officers we have learned.’

The next thing to say is Yang Dandan, the second son of the four, known as the most beautiful peony flower of the "Yan Tai Si Golden Flower". As the most beautiful girl with the most quiet and beautiful personality among the four, she rarely hears the good and bad of the man from her mouth, but today when she said something different from Deng Chenggong from others, Lin Meiting began to laugh in her heart, thinking that she should have the chance to treat it as a matchmaker.

Just as the four of them commented on how Deng Chenggong was different from others, Xu Mingyuan, who seemed a little nervous when waiting outside, finally knocked on the door. The four of them stopped commenting and pushed Lin Meiting out of the room with a smile. As for the three of them, they continued to hide in the room and observe their every move outside.

Xu Mingyuan, wearing a militia-style military uniform, even though he was wearing a pair of glasses, his scholarly temperament seemed to be somewhat incompatible with the Venus star on his shoulder. But the officers present knew that if the four column leaders had to be ranked, Xu Mingyuan, who was nominally ranked last, should be able to be ahead of the deputy commander Hu Guangzong, after Deng Chenggong.

Without Xu Mingyuan taking care of all government and logistics work for Deng Chenggong later, the development of the militia column would not be so smooth and growing day by day. It can be said that Xu Mingyuan's reputation in the militia column was second only to Deng Chenggong, not to mention that he was the old man who served as the No. 2 person since the beginning of the column was established.
