his robbery

Gu Chengxi was kicked out twice by Huo Xiangzhen in two days, so he decided to go to Baoding to do something serious.Anyway, Baoding is very close to Beijing, and it is easy to go back and forth.The day before he left, he asked Xiao Lin, "Will you come with me?"

Xiao Lin knelt on the bed and folded his clothes for him: "I won't go with you. I fell ill and chased to Baoding to be your slave? It's better if you're not at home. I'll spend a few days alone."

Gu Chengxi walked back and forth on the ground with his hands in his sleeves: "I don't want to go with me, is it possible that you are dating again outside?"

Xiao Lin stopped his hands and looked up at him: "What's the matter? I think my head is too plain and want to add some green?"

Gu Chengxi stretched out his hand and pointed at him: "Tell you, if you dare to cuckold me, I will tear you alive!"

Xiao Lin lowered his head and continued to work: "Humph!"

Gu Chengxi had nothing to do at leisure, and while pacing and talking nonsense, Xiao Lin gritted his teeth in anger.After a night like this, although Xiao Lin loved him, when he went out, he still wanted to kick his ass hard.

After half a day, Gu Chengxi arrived in Baoding.A group of brothers he brought from his hometown have already finished the training, among them, the Du family's twins grew half an inch taller because they ate enough.Gu Chengxi separated the two brothers and asked Du Guosheng to be his adjutant, while Du Guofeng stayed in the regiment as a soldier.And Zhao Liangwu was wearing a military uniform and an armed belt. Although he was as thin as a ghost, he was full of energy.He couldn't hold a gun, he didn't dare to ride a horse, and spent a few days in a sickly state. He had no other grades, except to learn a very standard Mandarin from the instructor.Find a warm and soft place to sit firmly, and he can talk and laugh nonsense all day long.

Gu Chengxi stood tall and burly in front of Zhao Liangwu, frowning and asked him, "Are you hungry?"

Zhao Liangwu stopped by a big tree, and gave him a military salute before speaking: "Reporting to the group, I can't eat."

Gu Chengxi scolded immediately: "You still can't eat white rice and twice-cooked pork, are you going to die?"

Zhao Liangwu chirped like a chicken: "I can't digest it."

Gu Chengxi scolded: "Look at your bear, it's like you've been hit by the plague! You insisted on messing with me back then, didn't you want to take the opportunity to blackmail me with a coffin?"

Zhao Liangwu was mentally weak, leaning against the big tree and shaking straight: "Tuan Zuo, I can't die!"

Then he covered his mouth gracefully and yawned.

Gu Chengxi had nothing to do with Zhao Liangwu, so he was sent to the cooking class, not to make him work, but to let him have a chance to eat and drink.Zhao Liangwu worked hard to add food, and finally added gastroenteritis.After resting in bed for a month, he lost even more weight, but while recovering from his illness, he learned a lot of words and was able to read newspapers and popular magazines.Gu Chengxi was embarrassed to send him back to his hometown, so he arranged for him to join the communication platoon and let him learn to operate the radio station.

As soon as the Spring Festival is over, the day of recruiting soldiers is approaching.Recruits are related to military pay and ammunition, and Huo Xiangzhen has already approved a note for his second regiment.Gu Chengxi decided to go to Tianjin Daying to collect guns and ammunition in person, but before going to Tianjin, he returned to Beijing first.

With several thousand oceans, he boarded the door of the horse house.Although the commander-in-chief approved the note, it was still suspected of being a bad check, and he had to pass the Secretary-General's purpose before he could be considered sure.

Ma Congrong didn't accept the gifts he gave before, and he made it very clear, because he had been on duty for a short time and had no money in hand.Now that he is not what he used to be, Ma Congrong naturally changed his attitude and accepted his ocean with a smile.

Gu Chengxi was not afraid of anything, but in front of Ma Congrong, he never dared to make mistakes, and he didn't even dare to show his might.He always felt that Ma Congrong was a character half hidden in the dark, and he was very considerate, reasonable, and kind when he talked and laughed, not because he had a good temperament, but because it was not yet time for him to turn his face.

Sitting on the couch in the living room of Ma's house, he took a piece of chocolate candy that Ma Congrong handed him.The candy is pretty, wrapped in a layer of shiny cellophane, and Ma Congrong patted it into his palm: "Try it, it's British, it tastes really good. I ate a jar yesterday."

Gu Chengxi squeezed the candy and looked at it, and saw clearly the opening and closing of that layer of wrapping paper.After peeling off the cellophane and eating the chocolate, he shook his head and smiled while chewing: "I can't get used to this."

Ma Congrong crossed Erlang's legs and leaned back, holding a sugar plate to pick and choose: "How is Baoding now? When the commander-in-chief is away, is Chief of Staff Li in charge?"

Gu Chengxi endured the sweetness and swallowed the chocolate in his mouth: "Yes, the chief of staff is in charge."

Ma Congrong picked out a satisfied candy, raised his head and smiled and asked, "Is the hexagram he calculated accurate?"

Gu Chengxi showed a look of embarrassment, rubbed his hands and shook his head slowly: "He did the calculation... I dare not say, it seems... there is a time."

Ma Congrong laughed out loud, peeling off a round piece of white chocolate while laughing.Throwing the white chocolate into his mouth, he said with a smile to Gu Chengxi: "Don't let him forget it, the commander-in-chief looks at him very disliked now. If he keeps counting, it's easy to count on the muzzle!"

Gu Chengxi laughed with him, and when he had laughed enough, he asked again: "Will the commander-in-chief go to Baoding for a while?"

Ma Congrong thought for a while, and finally replied: "It should be! You cleaned up your soldiers, and he was satisfied at first glance, and it will definitely benefit you in the future."

Gu Chengxi nodded and bowed in agreement, and at the same time quietly peeked at him.While looking at it, he thought: "Fortunately, he is a man. If he were a woman, one every year would give Ping An a litter!"

Gu Chengxi guessed that he was almost done sitting, so he got up and said goodbye.He intended to go to Huo Mansion again to make an appearance, but after thinking about it, he still didn't go.He hasn't achieved anything during this period of time, even if he meets Huo Xiangzhen, he doesn't have anything to be proud of.Instead of this, it is better to go to Tianjin to do business first.If he really becomes the second An Rushan in the future, he thought to himself, is he still afraid that Ping An will not think highly of himself?

Gu Chengxi went straight to Tianjin. After arriving in Tianjin, he also heard a small piece of news - Li Ziming, Lian Yi's favorite general, the head of Li Ziming, who was imprisoned by Huo Xiangzhen last year because of fighting with An Shi, successfully escaped from prison. up.

Li Ziming has been in prison for a long time, and he has already become a worthless cripple. It would be the same without him, so this news did not cause any big waves.Gu Chengxi took the ammunition and returned to Baoding, but just after he entered the barracks, he got the good news—the commander-in-chief is here!

It is coming, but the artillery battalion is being inspected.Gu Chengxi panicked for a moment, scratching his head and waiting for Huo Xiangzhen to come to inspect himself.After waiting from noon to evening, he finally couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled out the horse and flew up, and sent it to the door quickly.

In the open field of the Artillery Brigade, he reined in his horse from a distance, and saw a row of field artillery in the distance.The adjutant guards with live ammunition patrolled back and forth, moving into blurred little shadows in the twilight.

Then, he found Huo Xiangzhen.

Huo Xiangzhen rode on the barrel of a field gun, and the barrel was raised high.In the setting sun and sunset, the cannon didn't move, and neither did he.Looking up at the sky, he froze into a black silhouette, only the corner of the soft cloak fluttered occasionally with the cold wind.

Gu Chengxi dismounted from the horse, let go of the rein and walked forward step by step.The frozen soles of his boots stepped on the snow and dry grass all over the ground, and he walked all the way to the field artillery.Raising his head and raising his hand, he held Huo Xiangzhen's left foot wearing a riding boot.

Huo Xiangzhen lowered her head, as if a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

Amidst the mighty wind that ran through the wilderness, Gu Chengxi stared upwards into his eyes: "Because I heard that you are here."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he immediately realized that he had lost his composure.He raised his hand to gag his mouth and cleared his throat, then turned to the gray-red horizon and replied again: "I heard... the commander-in-chief is here."

Huo Xiangzhen shook his left foot away from his hand, then turned over and jumped down.The black cloak blew up the wind, covering Gu Chengxi's head and face.Huo Xiangzhen who fell to the ground reached out to tear off the cloak, but at the same time, Gu Chengxi also raised his hand.

Gu Chengxi held Huo Xiangzhen's hand, and pressed his hand to his lips through a layer of cloak.The kiss happened in an instant, Huo Xiangzhen's hand slid over his palm, and the black cloak also slid past his eyes.

The curtain fell, and the world in the field of vision returned to clarity.He stood upright, meeting Huo Xiangzhen's gaze.

Huo Xiangzhen stared at him, her voice was soft but firm: "Bastard, do you want to rebel?"

Gu Chengxi said nothing, his lips became thinner and thinner, and finally the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably, and he smiled at Huo Xiangzhen.

Huo Xiangzhen stared at him, the more he stared, the more he laughed.Staring and staring, Huo Xiangzhen put her hands behind her back and smiled too.

His eyelashes shaded his eyes, and his eyes shone with the sunset light.In an instant, he smiled innocently, allowing Gu Chengxi to see his youthful appearance.

Lifting his leg and kicking Gu Chengxi, he turned around and strode forward, "Bitch!"

Gu Chengxi stepped up to catch up with his black cloak, and suddenly shouted: "Marshal!"

Huo Xiangzhen walked away with great interest, and without turning her head, she replied loudly, "Say!"

Gu Chengxi ran a few steps to get close to him, and whispered in a low voice: "I love you."

Huo Xiangzhen kept walking, but raised a hand backwards: "Get lost!"

Huo Xiangzhen returned to the city, and Gu Chengxi really got out, not because he was obedient, but because he was busy returning to collect his soldiers.He didn't sleep at night, he patrolled barracks from barracks to barracks, those with long hair, torn military uniforms, and even those with scars on their faces and sores on their heads were all scolded by him.

In the early morning of the next day, Huo Xiangzhen arrived at the barracks surrounded by the chief of staff and others.The chief of staff made a divination, thinking that it would be best to start reviewing the team at ten o'clock in the morning. Although lunch might be delayed, it would definitely be auspicious.

Huo Xiangzhen listened to the chief of staff's high opinion, and his legs started to itch together, wishing he could kick the chief of staff out of the headquarters.But the chief of staff can't be really kicked, because the chief of staff has nothing wrong with him except talking about it.

The military parade was scheduled for ten o'clock, and before that, everyone had to sit in the headquarters.Fortunately, the chief of staff had already prepared - the chief of staff prepared a basket of bananas.

The bananas were transported by air from the south to Tianjin, and then from Tianjin to Baoding by car. Although the outer layer was still wrapped with a thin flower paper, it can be seen that the yellow skin inside has some black spots.Gu Chengxi went up with the others to get one, then retreated behind them and stopped, and quietly took a bite of the long handle of the banana without moving it.

Just about to bite harder, he suddenly saw Huo Xiangzhen peeling the banana.Afterwards, he broke out in a sweat with fear, thinking that he almost made a big embarrassment in public again.

The headquarters fell silent, and all the officers silently ate a basket of banana peels.Huo Xiangzhen took out his pocket watch to check the time, and then said to the chief of staff sitting beside him, "Li Kechen, it's almost time, shall we go?"

The chief of staff offered a banana with both hands as if offering a treasure: "Commander, don't worry, eat a bigger one!"

Huo Xiangzhen was in a good mood and didn't care about it like him.The others also laughed when they saw it.The chief of staff heard the laughter, and immediately became anxious: "What are you laughing at? Anyway, it's not ten o'clock, and I can't see the sun."

Before the words were finished, a series of drought thunders suddenly appeared in mid-air.Immediately, sand and dust surged in the direction of the parade ground, and there was a burst of wild shouting outside the headquarters.Everyone in the room changed color suddenly, Gu Chengxi, who was close to the door, opened the door first, and shouted: "What's wrong?"

Yuan Man rushed into the headquarters like a cannonball, and shouted out of breath: "The military parade was blown up...it was blown up..."

Huo Xiangzhen stood up abruptly: "Did it explode?"

Yuan Man leaned on the door frame and panted heavily: "It exploded...I blew myself up..."
