Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 773 This is a kiss!
The local tyrant who came was not someone else.

It was Tantai Yunshu, Tang Dao's future father-in-law.

Since the old man separated from his daughter last time, he ran wildly with his old family who accompanied him, arranged for three hundred advanced students to wait for Tang Dao to pick him up, and then took the train south without stopping.

After a busy day in Jiangxia, when he collected enough money, he took the train again to Yu Province, and from Yu Province, he took a military train bound for the northern Jiangsu area.

Thanks to Tantai Yunshu's wide range of friends, he can get a pass and get care wherever he goes. Otherwise, with his title of professor at Jinling University, he would not be able to board the train transporting soldiers to play this kind of upstream game .

He came to Xuzhou for only one purpose, to send money to Tang Dao!

Tantai Yunshu was a man of his word, and he would definitely give Tang Dao the reward he said.

Tantai's family is a large family with nearly two hundred members. Except for a few dozen people who stayed in their hometown to take care of their ancestral property, the rest all evacuated.

The two hundred people have to eat, drink and live, and they have to re-establish their footholds. Of course, this kind of expense is huge. Even if the Tantai family is originally rich, it is no longer possible to spend hundreds of thousands of silver at every turn as before.

Tang Dao also knew this, but he obviously didn't know enough about his future father-in-law's licking feelings.

In order to stand up for his daughter, a certain old father-in-law went all out, and even sold off his favorite paintings and antiques.

The old Tantai who rushed to the Liaison Office of the 67th Army in Xuzhou City, the first thing he said when he saw Tang Dao was: "This old man is here to fulfill his promise, this is for you!"

The second sentence is: "The old man is about to die of starvation, you boy, hurry up and get me something to eat."

The old family handed Tang Dao a suitcase in one hand. Tang Dao didn't have time to feel the weight of the suitcase to judge what was in it, so he asked Mr. Zhuang San to pick it up, and hurried to the liaison office kitchen.

Tang knives are rarely used in the kitchen.

It's not that he won't, it's that he has no chance at all.

In his previous life, in the army, he ate the cafeteria, and in the battlefield, he ate instant dry food; In the mood to do something to eat.

But looking at the originally handsome old Tantai covered in dust, tired face, and wrinkles around his eyes, Tang Dao can imagine how many miles this old man has traveled in the past month in order to fulfill the so-called promise. How much has I suffered.

Even if he wasn't Tantai Mingyue's father and his future father-in-law, Tang Dao would still be grateful to the old man for treating him like this. He couldn't give him anything else, but he must have Jiangnan green onion noodles that suit his taste.

There were no dried noodles in this period, and the noodles had to be rolled first. Fortunately, Tang Dao also had a chief of staff from Songjiang.

Even though Zhuang Shisan used to be the battalion commander of the security team at the level of a local snake, he basically took making money as his own responsibility, but no one thought that this person also had the fine-grained bones of Songhu people. It is also extremely fine, each one is as thick as it is, and it is excellent in terms of appearance alone, and Jubi is a good man who lives a life.

"Fuck, Lao Zhuang, your sister-in-law should be very happy with this move!" Tang Dao couldn't be more surprised by the extraordinary ability displayed by his partner.

"Hehe! It makes the group laugh. We people from Songjiang can act like grandpas when we are outside, but we definitely don't act like bosses at home. That's obviously to make the backyard catch fire! The group may be better at cooking than me in the future." Master Zhuang laughed loosely. road.

No wonder men in Songhu will buy vegetables and cook in the future. The tradition of daring love has been around for a long time. The key is that the family status is clearly recognized.

As for Zhuang Shisan teasing that he would marry a delicate Jiangnan woman as his wife in the future, and eventually become a man who cooks for his wife, Tang Dao also laughed.

Thinking of the poor environment when he was in a coma, Tang Dao, who woke up, didn't smell any peculiar smell on his body, which shows how meticulously Tantai Mingyue took care of him, and there is no repayment for his affection.

If the day comes to welcome peace, Tang Dao is willing to put down his sword and gun and build a small house with a yard in the countryside.

There are flowers and plants in the yard, and Hammer will bring its puppies to take up the duties of the gatekeeper again, while he and Tantai Mingyue will plant the fields in their busy time, make a pot of tea, read books, beat the children, and cook for their wives and children. Cooking, it doesn't feel too good.

Perhaps no one would have thought that the ruthless Captain Tang on the battlefield would have the greatest dream in life to be around his wife and children.

In fact, the more you experience the cruelty of the battlefield, the more you know the value of peace and tranquility.Tang Dao, who has been a man for two generations, has experienced more battlefields than everyone here, and he yearns for peace.

It's just that, as a little butterfly who came through the air, he knows better that all peace is achieved with fists, and never with mercy.

A lowly vagabond who would bark even a watchdog!

. . . . . . . .

For chopped scallion noodles in Jiangnan, cook the noodles first, add a few drops of sesame oil, remove the noodles without soup, put the noodles in a bowl with seasonings, sprinkle with chopped green onions, heat the sesame oil in the pot, and finally put Pour the hot oil on the chopped green onion and stir, and a bowl of steaming, fresh, fragrant and delicious chopped green onion noodles is made.

The green-eyed old man, who was already hungry and drank tea, saw the taste of his hometown that he had not seen for a long time. Where did he still have the slightest reserve of a great painter and poet?Three mouthfuls and two mouthfuls, it took less than thirty seconds to finish a bowl.

Fortunately, Tang Dao knew that he must be very hungry, so he specially made two more bowls, a total of five bowls of noodles. Wan took the initiative to stop, watching with tears in his eyes that his master and brother, who had never suffered much, worked hard to cook.

Seeing a straight man like Tang Dao, his nose was slightly sore, he knew that this was not embarrassment, but that the old Tantai, who had no regard for his manners in front of him, had completely accepted him, the man who was snatching his little padded jacket.

Being an old father is really not easy.Tang Dao didn't know if he would be so calm if he encountered such a thing in the future.

Maybe, he will beat that dog thief first?This possibility is extremely high, as long as there are no accidents, even if he is over fifty, Tang Dao can guarantee that his combat power will still remain at its peak.

Apparently, it was a wild idea for someone who had never been a father before.

When it comes to that time when he becomes a father again, he has nothing but helplessness, just like the one in front of him.

"Your cooking skills are good, this noodle is very comfortable for me! Hiccup!" Old Tantai hiccupped contentedly, and tilted Tang Dao who was sitting beside him. "Aren't you curious how much I paid you?"

"Hey, how can I not be curious, it's not that you are always in front of me, I can't open the box directly! I'm afraid that my golden eyes will scare you, right?" Tang Dao said with a smile.

"Hmph! You're just being clever, why do I feel that you don't like it, and I'm afraid that if you open it in front of me, it will be embarrassing to both of you?" Tantai Yunshu snorted coldly, but the corners of his mouth were raised proudly. .

Tang Dao couldn't help being a little more curious when he saw the arrogant look of the proud old Tantai.

The leather suitcase is not that big, at most it will be the size of a small suitcase in the future. If it is full of large yellow croakers, it is estimated to be worth a lot of money.

But that's obviously unrealistic. How can two middle-aged people who are over sixty years old have the strength to run two thousand miles on their shoulders?But if it wasn't for the big yellow croaker, how much money could this suitcase hold?Ten thousand oceans can't hold it!

But even if it is [-] oceans, although it is a lot, it will never let the old Tantai who has seen the world show such a gesture!

Under Tang Dao's gesture, Zhuang Shisan took the key handed over by the old family to open the small copper lock that locked the suitcase, and unzipped the zipper, a pile of colorful banknotes appeared in front of several people.

Beautiful knife!

Tang Dao's eyes widened suddenly.

As the most widely circulated currency in the future world, Tang Dao has of course seen Mei Dao countless times. Although the color of Mei Dao is slightly different from that of Future, the image of the characters on Mei Dao has never changed.

The number displayed on the US knife is 10. If there is no accident, a stack of 100 10-yuan US dollars is 1000 US dollars. Even if you don’t need to count them, there are at least more than 20 stacks here, which is worth more than [-] US dollars.

According to the current exchange rate, this is almost equivalent to nearly 10 silver oceans.

"Hey, for the convenience of carrying, I ran all over the major banks in Jiangxia, and exchanged yellow croakers and oceans into the hard currency of U.S. knives. It may not be a big deal, but there are a total of [-] U.S. dollars here! How about it, is it enough to pay?" Did you give me the rewards for those students going north?" Looking at the astonished eyes of Tang Dao and Zhuang Shisan, Tantai Yunshu said the number with a little satisfaction.

The remuneration of nearly 10 yuan per gift is almost astronomical, let alone 300 people, even 3000 people are enough.

Zhuang Shisan's gaze at the moment when he looked at Head Tang was nothing but envy.

It's okay to have a rich father-in-law, a rich and generous father-in-law is the key!

'Why, envy a ball!Not only is this guy handsome, but he can also make scallion noodles! Tang Dao glanced back at his chief of staff.

But obviously, the head of Tang Da, who was striding forward, was even more excited than Zhuang Shisan. He tightly held the hand of the proud old Tantai, and howled: "Father, you are my real father!"

Old Tantai shivered!

He almost slapped Tang Dao on this shameless big face.

In fact, it is easy for the old father to associate with those not-so-good aspects.

What's the matter, cooked raw rice?

That is to say, Lao Tantai took the paintbrush and replaced it with a master of eight poles like Lao Han. No matter how good your Tang Dao is, it is a gift from the cliff.

"Uncle, don't get me wrong, I just want to express my excitement! We have a special language in our hometown!"

It had to be that Tang Dao reacted quickly.Instantly felt the killing intent of a certain old man!
People from Sichuan Province expressed their dissatisfaction. Laozi are not as wretched as your children.

"I lost my temper, I really have the money you gave me, I can pay the soldiers, and the families of the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country can finally receive pensions." Tang Dao had tears in his eyes. .

"You are also the head of the regiment, so you can't be so complacent and make people laugh for nothing! Also, before the two of you are married, don't yell!" Tantai Yunshu's complexion improved a lot, and she taught the future with a stern face son in law.

"Yes, yes, Uncle, you are right!" Tang Dao pointed like garlic.

"Haha! Good! Someone can subdue this daring monkey grandson, old Tantai, old Wu really envies you for giving birth to a beautiful daughter!" There was a burst of heroic laughter outside the door.

With laughter, Comrade Wu entered from outside the door.

Seeing the bright smile on his face, it is obvious that this man is very happy about Tang Dao being deflated.

"What? With you, Uncle Wu, in charge, what else can this kid come up with?" Tantai Yunshu was very keen, but he could hear that his old friend was contemplating his future son-in-law.

"Hey, your good son-in-law gave the 20th Legion a blow as soon as he came to Xuzhou City. Good guy, he brought a cavalry platoon with a saber and charged at dozens of guns! Don't you think it's audacious?" Old Wu The comrade smiled and put eye drops on Tang Dao.

"Oh? There is such a thing, so what is the cause and effect?" Old Tantai's face turned serious, but he continued to ask.

Old Comrade Wu told his old friend the cause and effect impartially.

For this army commander, accusing Tang Dao of being "black" like this is actually just hoping that Tang Dao can restrain him a little bit.

But he knew that when he told Tang Dao these things, Tang Dao probably went in his left ear and out of his right ear.Everyone has their own moral standards and persistence. Tang Dao's character of defying power is very popular with him, but he can't help being a little worried.

There are a lot of injustices in this world, today it may be a bastard like the 20th Legion, so what if it is a heavy general at the army level in the future?
The identity of the old Tantai is a bit subtle, especially for Tang Dao, he is a complete elder, so Tang Dao has to bite the bullet and listen to the teachings.

"Okay! Tang Dao, what you have done is really worthy of my heart. I have traveled thousands of miles to send you military supplies!" Tantai Yunshu roared with all his might. "As a soldier, you should reject the bandits from the outside and eliminate the evil from the inside! Next time you encounter such a thing, you should do the same!"

Comrade Wu
Did I say something wrong?I always feel that the clown is actually me!

. . . . . . .

With the [-] U.S. knives that Old Tantai sent charcoal in the snow, Tang Dao finally became rich again.

This time Tang Dao was not stingy at all, and gave two thousand dollars to each of the two commanders of the 67th Army and the 59th Army.

Of course the two army commanders couldn't ask for the little brother's money, but Tang Dao's words made them both have to accept it.

"Two elder brothers, although Tang Dao is brave on the battlefield, he is young after all. Many people have not yet matured in the world, and have offended many dignitaries intentionally or unintentionally. Although Tang Dao has never regretted it, Tang Dao is still annoyed by many constraints. .

Tang Dao wants to be an extremely pure soldier, but Tang Dao also knows that it is extremely difficult in such a world and system. Fortunately, Tang Dao got to know the two of you and Commander Guo, who is like an elder brother. Tang Dao bears the darkness that Tang Dao cannot resist, and Tang Dao regards it as a blessing to come to this world.

Tang Dao had nothing to repay, so he could only borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and transfer the funds to the military headquarters of his two brothers.Because I know that the two elder brothers are clean and honest officials, and their personal savings are not much, but at the moment of this great war, the soldiers need to be rewarded. , Behind them are parents, wives and children who need to be raised. Two thousand US dollars is equivalent to eight thousand silver dollars, which is only enough for more than a hundred sacrificed soldiers. Please accept it from the two chiefs! It was rare for Tang Dao to reveal his heart in front of two army commanders who were more than twice as old as him.

This is also Tang Dao's innermost thoughts.

Even though he was brave and full of wisdom and created miracles on the battlefield time and time again, thousands of Japanese soldiers died under his command, at least thousands, but without the full support of Guo and Wu, the soldiers he led would be no more than For more than a hundred, let him fight the sword with three heads and six arms, and face the torrent of tens of thousands of Japanese troops, he can only cry in vain!

Those who really dominated those victories were actually the two commanders who dared to trust completely, which required sufficient wisdom and the heart of resistance.Even if Tang Dao knew that they had lived like this in the long river of history, Tang Dao knew more about the rareness of these commanders who left their names in the Great War of Resistance Against Japan when they got in close contact with them.

They may all have some shadows of the old warlords and the old army, firmly defending their own camp, but they all have a patriotic heart, facing the Japanese invaders, they will not hesitate to throw off their own persistence and go forward bravely.

This point is many times stronger than some people.

And what Tang Dao said about the few people who resisted the darkness behind him is even more true. Without the cover of the commanders of the 43rd Army, the 67th Army, and even the 59th Army who joined later, it would be just a display of chariots and horses in Xuzhou City. In the next scene of the 20th Legion, Tang Dao can guarantee that the narrow-minded general named Tang will be waiting for him somewhere in his march.

After all, he was ordered to go north, and the marching trajectory could not escape the sight of the man with open eyes.

"Okay! Since you said so, brother, then the big brother will accept it!" Seeing that Tang Dao had said so, Commander Zhang no longer refused.

From the point of view of this rather chivalrous army commander, since they are brothers, then don't be too outsider.

What's more, Tang Dao has a father-in-law who can sell paintings for money!

Comrade Old Wu was also very relieved at the moment. He helped Tang Dao because Tang Dao could kill the enemy, but he never thought of getting rewards from Tang Dao. He didn't expect Tang Dao to be so intentional.

He already treated Tang Dao like a nephew, but he got closer.

But Tantai Yunshu was not annoyed at all when he saw that Tang Dao easily gave away the funds raised by selling part of his family's property and sending them from afar, instead he stroked his long beard in relief .

This guy Tang Dao needs to be talented and handsome, and if he wants to match his little padded jacket, he is a good match, only sometimes!Occasionally came up with some jaw-dropping fresh words, which made the traditional and conservative old Tantai a little displeased.

It's not that those words have something, but that you are already the head of the regiment, and you are still so unstable, how can you become a general in the future?
But what Tang Dao said just now, the gifts were given with reason, evidence, affection, and meaning. This shows that Tang Dao actually has a maturity beyond his age, so Old Tantai is naturally much more at ease.

Money is nothing, it’s not enough, I’ll sell a few more paintings!The happy old father was a little swollen at the moment.

Collecting in troubled times and golden prosperity. At this time, paintings are not so easy to sell.

Tang Dao has [-] U.S. dollars in his hand, but it completely makes up for the deficit of the regiment headquarters at this time. Not to mention, a lot of rich funds have come out, but the U.S. knife at this time is a hard currency but not a currency in circulation. Merchants can exchange it, but ordinary people take it out, but small merchants and hawkers don't recognize it. If they are sent to officers and soldiers to send back to their hometowns, they will either be tricked by unscrupulous merchants or they will not use them.

Through the quartermaster of the 67th Army Liaison Office, I asked about the current exchange rate of US dollars to oceans in the bank. The official exchange rate is only 1:3. Tang Dao remembered that the exchange rate should be close to 4 at this time. There is a difference of [-] oceans. , After thinking about it, let Lu Sanjiang go to find Lai Ma Wenxue.

When Ma Wenxue heard that this was the military funds of the Four Elements Regiment to be exchanged for rewards and subsidies for the disabled and sacrificed soldiers, he immediately agreed with his chest, and exchanged it according to the current highest ratio of 1:4 on the black market.

Before the war, the exchange rate of U.S. knives to ocean was about 1:2.5. After half a year of war, China’s domestic prices began to soar, and the exchange rate of U.S. knives to oceans also rose all the way. The exchange rate on the black market was even close to 1:4. Ma Wenxue Being able to exchange according to this ratio will definitely earn enough favorability in Tang Dao's heart.

Ma's firm has enough background, after receiving the amount of Tang Dao that needs to be exchanged for U.S. Dao, it took half a day to collect 8 silver oceans and deliver it to Tang Dao.

Tang Dao received Dayang, and immediately decided to set off and return to the four-element regiment station. The two army commanders were also decisive people. They knew that the war would start in a few days, so they did not stay. They each took their guards to send Tang Dao and his party out of the city. .

The farewell between soldiers is very simple, exchanging military salutes!The sound is precious, just turn around and go!

Even if no one knows, whether we can see each other again after this farewell!
Some words, needless to say, know.

"Two officers and elder brothers, take care! See you someday, and I'll treat you two to a drink!" Tang Dao turned his horse's head and left after finishing speaking.

Old Tantai sat in a carriage specially provided for him, and waved goodbye to the two people standing at the city gate.

There are soft quilts in the carriage, and there is even a ceramic hand stove for heating. This is Tang Dao's arrangement. Old Tantai enjoys it with peace of mind. His old bone has been running around for more than a month. , can't stand the bumps anymore.

Soon to see her little padded jacket, Tantai Yunshu's heart was much more anxious than Tang Dao's.

Twenty or so riders, accompanied by a long team of camels and convoys, raised dust and gradually moved away from the city.

"I am inexplicably sad? Is it old?" Looking at Tang Dao's back, Comrade Wu suddenly sighed.

"Haha! Brother Jingshan, you only care so much because of your deep love!" Army Commander Zhang laughed boldly, pointed the horsewhip in his hand into the distance. "Didn't you listen to brother Tangdao! See you later and invite you and me to drink. We can't beat him with wine, but we must kill more devils than him. Who made us two outnumber him!"

"Brother Chenchen is right. When we meet again, we will see who kills more enemies and who kills less. Let's count as a hundred people a glass of wine!" Old Comrade Wu was also very happy.

Obviously, the two were too optimistic.

The four-element regiment that arrived in the north, not to mention the scale, but the Japanese army that was broken up into pieces and killed piecemeal behind the enemy lines were all numbers that made the Japanese North China Dispatch Army Command's eyes tearing apart, and they regarded it as a serious problem.
