The Republic of Heroes

Chapter 32 The Cook's Counterattack

After the fat man loaded the gun, there was indeed a spare part left on the table, his face was flushed, and everyone hissed.Seeing this, Wu Xiaoliang snatched the Browning m1900, disassembled it a few times, and assembled it deftly. He pulled the holster, and the recoil spring was pressed and bounced back. The sound was crisp and clear, and he praised: "Good gun!"

Wu Xiaoliang handed the gun to Fatty: "Brother Fatty, return your gun, I still have work in the kitchen." After saying that, he turned and left.

The student officers looked at each other in blank dismay. A cook was so proficient with guns, Baoding Military Academy was really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.The fat man shouted at Wu Xiaoliang's back: "That guy, what's your name? Grandpa, I was wrong."

The skinny man who competed with him chuckled: "Brother Zhen, this 'grandfather' is not that 'grandfather', this guy saved you face."

The fat man waved his fist, hehe said: "This kid is sensible, otherwise my fist will make him look good." He said hard, but in his heart he felt that he was inferior to this guy in terms of skills and momentum, and he must get back his face someday , but on second thought, what glory is there even if you win against this group of people?I couldn't help feeling depressed for a while.

Wu Xiaoliang hid his achievements and fame and returned to the kitchen to help Uncle Wang, ignoring the strange eyes of the students and officers outside.He didn't know that many of these students were direct participants in the Wuchang First Uprising, and they were already leading officers in the army.

In the blink of an eye, it was August, and the students who were on vacation returned to the military academy one after another, and the regulations for recruiting students outside the gate had also been posted.Wu Xiaoliang and Uncle Wang asked for leave, packed the letter of recommendation written by Cai and Jiang, and trotted all the way to the registration office.

Baoding Military Academy has its own set of strict procedures for recruiting students. As early as the end of the Qing Dynasty, each province had its own army primary school, and each county selected and sent students with excellent cultural and physical fitness to enjoy public funds.After graduating from Army Elementary School, they will be promoted to Army Middle School based on merit.After graduating from the army middle school, they first spend half a year in the military life at the branch school of Baoding Military Academy.Baoding Military Academy uses this to ensure the quality of students.Therefore, it is more appropriate to say that you come to Baoding Military Academy to register for an interview. Only after passing this pass can you become a trainee soldier.

Four of the students who came to sign up are classmates, and they are very familiar with each other.A large group of people surrounded the registration office. Wu Xiaoliang didn't know why, so he squeezed into the crowd. The second-class education adjutant sat behind the desk at the door, wearing the captain's epaulettes, with an impatient expression on his face.

In the past years, military school students had to be personally lectured by the principal to show encouragement when registering and enrolling students. Unexpectedly, the principal Wang Ruxian did not arrive today.The students waited anxiously, and the instructors were also full of complaints. Unfortunately, the captain and adjutant got angry at home again, and spread it all on the students. He had already reprimanded several short-sighted guys.

Everyone looked pitifully at this dumb-headed young man who slammed into the muzzle of the gun, Wu Xiaoliang didn't know how to salute, so he bowed to the second adjutant, "Sir..."

"Do you understand the rules? The military academy has military salutes. Didn't the teacher give it to you?" The second adjutant snatched the excuse, and Wu Xiaoliang smiled awkwardly and took out a letter of recommendation that was oily.

"Sir, student Wu Xiaoliang, this is a personal letter recommended by Jiang Baigong and Yiwu General Cai Gong, please pass it on."

"What, what? Who recommended you, tell me again?" The second adjutant couldn't believe his ears, thinking he heard it wrong, and asked again.

"Jiang Baigong and General Cai."

Among the crowd, a student from the fourth period recognized Wu Xiaoliang.

"Hey—isn't this the guy from the cafeteria?"

"Yes, that's the cook. Yin Zhizhi lost the bet to him, and he called him grandpa three times."

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd, and the freshmen who didn't know the truth curiously asked about the origin of the chef.

The second-class adjutant had naturally heard Yin Chengfu's "three-tone grandfather" joke, and thought that the cook was deliberately playing tricks on him, and thought: Could it be that this rascal has lost his mind and dared to bully me.He looked at the glossy letter and shouted violently: The guards kicked this brat out of the military academy, and he will never be allowed to enter.

Several soldiers rushed in with guns, dragged Wu Xiaoliang out without even giving him a chance to defend himself.

Fatty Yin Chengfu was among the crowd watching the excitement. He was a little annoyed at seeing the education adjutant driving away the cooks, and shouted: "Sir, please read the letter. What if it is actually the letter from Principal Jiang?"

The adjutant glanced at Yin Chengfu and said with a smile: "Don't speak nonsense, if the mere guy has a letter from Principal Jiang, I will call him Grandpa three times."

There was another burst of laughter, Yin Chengfu blushed up to his neck, and remained silent angrily.

I don't know who shouted: "The superintendent is here, be quiet, be quiet!"

When the second-class adjutant heard that the chief education officer had arrived, he got up quickly and adjusted his military appearance.The position of the superintendent in the Army Military Academy is second only to the principal, and he is only a second-class deputy to the superintendent, so he is naturally trembling when he meets his superiors.The crowd parted ways, and the head of education, wearing a gray major general's uniform, came striding forward. He was sweating in the heat of August, and wiped his forehead with a handkerchief. He was personally recommended by Jiang Baili and Cai Songpo." Early in the morning, they received a telegram from Jiang Fangzhen and Cai E, and they jointly recommended Wu Xiaoliang to the military academy and asked if he would come to the school, which shows that they value him

The second-class adjutant was dumbfounded, "What... what?" Just as he was about to explain, the superintendent had already left in a hurry, leaving him behind.

"Guard, guard, go and catch that cook...no... please come back." The guard promised to chase Wu Xiaoliang.

A sharp-eyed person saw a group of people approaching a lieutenant general, "The principal is here, the principal is here."

This person is Wang Ruxian, the principal of Baoding Military Academy. The guards and horses lead the way, and the dress ribbons are extraordinary. The big lala parted the crowd and asked, "Can a student named Wu Xiaoliang come and ask him to come to see me? Secretary of State Xu Buwu called him personally." I took care of it by phone..." He realized that it was inappropriate to say this in public, so he quickly closed his mouth and looked around the students, encouraged him, turned around and left, and left the second adjutant behind.

The second-class adjutant has completely collapsed, who was it that he drove away just now?Jiang Fangzhen is only famous and has little influence in the Beiyang government. The guards led by Cai E are even opponents of the Beiyang government.But Xu Shichang is different. He is President Yuan's arm. He resigned and returned to his hometown because he opposed the president's proclaiming emperor a few years ago.In the whole of northern China, Xu Shichang is a figure under one person and above ten thousand people. Can he offend him because of their special care?He has too many puzzles, but the first task now is to find the cook as soon as possible.

"Guard, guard...Follow me to find that guy, if we can't find it, we don't have to come back..."

Someone laughed and said, "Don't forget to call me Grandpa..."
