my bright sword career

Chapter 745 Visit
The backyard of the Gao family's old house in Liantai County
The sun rarely came out today. Although the weather was still cold, Gao Hongming still came out to bask in the sun.

At this time, he was lying on a lazy chair, with his eyes slightly closed, letting the chair sway, looking leisurely and contented.

"Dad...Dad..."

Suddenly, two childish voices sounded next to him. Gao Hongming opened his eyes and saw two small figures stumbling towards him.

"dad……"

"Eh……"

Seeing the two figures running towards him with short legs, Gao Hongming felt his heart melt and quickly stood up.

Soon, the two little guys jumped into his arms. Gao Hongming hugged the two figures with a little force with his hands, and then kissed the two little guys on the face with two "Bobo" sounds.

These two little guys are Gao Pengcheng, the son and Gao Xiaolian, the daughter of Qin Xiulian and Xie Wenqian.

These two little guys, one is three years old and the other is two years old, are the cutest ages.

On weekdays, Gao Hongming was busy fighting, but he was finally free at home these days, so he played with the two little guys every day, which also made the two little guys extremely happy.

No, he came running over early in the morning, calling for his father.

Gao Xiaolian asked in a sweet voice, "Dad, can we play building a snowman today?"

"No... we don't make snowmen, we have snowball fights." Gao Pengcheng disagreed.

"Make a snowman."

"Snowball fight."

The two soon started to quarrel, and while they were arguing, they also pulled Gao Hongming's act of coquettishness.

"Well... we can..."

Before Gao Hongming could finish speaking, a little maid with a face flushed from the cold trotted up to him and said crisply.

"Master, the Eighth Route Army's commanders Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie and political commissar Zhao are already outside the door."

"Hey... I didn't expect these guys to come here so quickly."

Gao Hongming handed the two little ones to the old woman who was standing by to serve them, grabbed the hat on the table and strode out.

When he came to the living room of the outer courtyard, he saw the maid serving tea to Li Yunlong and his party. He laughed: "Hey... Brother Yunlong, Brother Ding Wei, Commander Kong, Political Commissar Zhao, and Political Commissar Wang, welcome you. , you are rare guests."

After saying that, he strode forward, opened his arms and hugged all three of them.

The force was so strong that even Li Yunlong bared his teeth.

After saying hello, Li Yunlong held back and rubbed his shoulders and complained: "Brother Gao, can you change your etiquette to a more refined manner next time we meet? Brother, my old arms and legs really can't stand being rude."

"Hahaha..." Li Yunlong's words made Ding Wei and Kong Jie burst into laughter.

You must know that Li Yunlong has always been a generous character. He always hits those who are dissatisfied first and then talks about it. What stands out is that he relies on his fists to speak, and he never thinks about the time to give in.

"Lao Li, I didn't expect you to be here today." Kong Jie teased while laughing.

Faced with the joke of his old comrade, Li Yunlong rolled his eyes and said, "Kong Er, don't be unconvinced, why don't you give it a try."

I never thought that Kong Jie would not accept the move at all: "Forget it, I won't go. If you try even though you know it will hurt, isn't that a fool?"

Ding Wei looked around and sighed: "He must be Captain Gao. He knows how to live. He knows how to enjoy life compared to us country bumpkins."

Gao Hongming smiled: "Captain Ding, what you said is wrong. Although the Eighth Route Army is a team of poor people.

And you are indeed suffering a bit now, but this does not mean that you will always be like this in the future. I firmly believe that you will definitely become rich, because poverty is not a certain doctrine. "Poverty has never been a certain doctrine!" "

Zhao Gang, who was silent on the side, his eyes lit up when he heard this. As a political cadre, he was much more sensitive to certain aspects than Li Yunlong, the three people in charge of the military.

As soon as I heard this, I immediately realized the value contained in it.

He subconsciously glanced at Political Commissar Wang beside him, but now was not the time to ask, so he could only suppress his curiosity and follow Gao Hongming into the living room.

Arriving at the living room, Gao Hongming led everyone to a large round dining table and sat down.

Everyone was a little confused looking at the table full of sumptuous food and wine that had been prepared.

Are today's rich families so arrogant that they start cooking as soon as guests enter the house?
"Ha ha……"

Seeing everyone's expressions, Gao Hongming smiled.

"Okay, this is not the first day we have met, and I don't know you yet.

I heard yesterday that you were coming this morning. I had already asked the butler to prepare wine and food, and I was waiting for you to have a few drinks when you arrived.

If I'm right, none of you should have eaten, right?

Come on...you're welcome, let's eat! "

"Brother Gao, you really have to say that. We have been traveling all night and our stomachs are already hungry. Brother, you are so considerate!

I haven’t said anything yet, but I, Lao Li, will do it first out of respect! "

After saying that, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp, then showed the empty glass to everyone.

"Hahaha...Old Li is still happy."

Gao Hongming also raised his glass. Everyone raised their glasses when they saw the master. Naturally, they couldn't sit still. They raised their glasses and drank.

Then the housekeeper came over with two maids and served everyone a bowl of white porridge.

"Everyone, you have been hungry all night. It is taboo to drink on an empty stomach. Drink porridge first to cushion your stomach before drinking. This is good for your stomach."

Everyone was indeed hungry, and they were not polite after hearing this. They quickly drank the porridge in front of them, then opened their cheeks and started eating.

After three drinks and five dishes, Gao Hongming put down his chopsticks.

"Old Li, Commander Ding, and Commander Kong, your department was ordered to contain the enemy on the outskirts of Taiyuan this time. Is your operation going smoothly now?"

"It didn't go well."

Ding Wei stopped what he was doing and shook his head.

"Just the day before yesterday, we encountered the Japanese 41st Division, and the 385th Brigade and our brigade teamed up to snipe the Japanese for a whole day and night.

The Japanese offensive was particularly fierce, and our brigade suffered heavy casualties. The division commander had to order us to temporarily retreat, allowing the New [-]st Brigade and the Guard Brigade to take over.

We were ordered to retreat to Harada County to rest and recuperate. It just so happened that Lao Li said he wanted to come over to see you, so we joined hands and came over to treat you, a wealthy local man, to a delicious meal. "

"Hahaha……"

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

Gao Hongming asked curiously: "By the way, I'm still a little curious. Logically speaking, with the strength of your 129th Division, it shouldn't be so difficult to deal with a second-rate Japanese division. How come you have such a big enemy after just one day of fighting?" casualties?"

After hearing Gao Hongming's question, everyone looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
