Empire

At night, a banquet was held in the mansion of the Qinghe Army. Exquisite wine and dishes were served to the table like flowing water, and the fragrance was everywhere.

All the battalion commanders and civil officials who stayed behind attended the celebration banquet after the great victory. There were more than ten tables.

The mansion was full of people and noise. Faced with the delicious food, Zhang Bao and others who had fought hard for their lives were very hungry.

"Damn, after eating dry and hard biscuits for a few days, I can finally have a hot meal.

Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang Bao was a rough man. He didn't even pick up chopsticks. He directly grabbed the roast chicken, twisted off a fat chicken leg, and started to eat it.

"Leopard, be careful, don't embarrass our master."

Seeing Zhang Bao chewing the chicken leg without any image, Li Lang, the deputy battalion commander sitting next to him, looked around and saw that the meal had not started yet, so he couldn't help but lower his voice to remind him.

"Hey, who cares? Let's eat our own food. Let anyone say what they want to say."

Zhang Bao said, biting a piece of meat and chewing it, which made the generals at the table next to him look at him sideways.

"This wine is quite fragrant, it is ten years old at first glance."

The thousand men opened the mud seal of the wine jar, poured a bowl into their own big bowl, and couldn't help but drink a big sip.

They went out this time to be able to survive, and it was not easy to come back alive. Li Lang smiled bitterly and shook his head, and simply turned a blind eye, too lazy to talk to them.

"It's really insulting!"

Seeing Zhang Bao and his friends eating without any image, a long official at the table next to him couldn't help but show a contemptuous look.

Zhang Bao and his friends turned a deaf ear to the gossip of these people and continued to enjoy the food with big mouthfuls.

"Brothers, there will be plenty of wine and meat tonight, everyone eat and drink well, and don't go home until you are drunk!"

Marshal Zhang Dayuan, as the supreme commander of the Qinghe Army, set up a celebration banquet at this moment, and also stood up and said a few simple words.

However, it seemed that Zhang Dayuan was in a bad mood, and he did not give a long speech to boost morale.

Moreover, he did not sit down to drink and eat meat with Chen Ziang and others, but asked Deputy Marshal Xu Fu to accompany Chen Ziang and others. He left the table early on the pretext of feeling unwell.

Seeing Marshal Zhang Dayuan leaving with a team of personal guards, Chen Ziang secretly cursed himself for being too careless.

During the daytime, when the welcoming ceremony for entering the city was held, I don't know who said a word, and actually shouted long live Chen Ziang. Isn't this looking for trouble? He and the brothers of the 9th Battalion fought bloody battles and finally won a great victory. He thought that the huge welcome ceremony was normal, but now it has become a shocking achievement, which made Marshal Zhang Dayuan unhappy.

Seeing Deputy Marshal Xu Fu chatting and laughing with the generals not far away, Chen Ziang knew that this time���I was tricked, or I was just too careless.

""Come, I'll toast you, you're the best general of our Qinghe Army!"

When Chen Ziang was staring at the deputy general Xu Fu in the distance and cursing in his heart, the burly deputy general Luo Dagang came over with a wine bowl.

"I say, General Luo, you are embarrassing me. How can I be called the number one general of the Qinghe Army? In my opinion, you are the number one general. Chen Ziang hurriedly stood up with a bowl of wine in his hand.

"The deputy commander has already said that you are the one, why are you still refusing? Come on, drink!"

Luo Dagang raised his neck and gulped down a large bowl of wine without saying anything.

After Luo Dagang finished drinking, he saw Chen Ziang still holding the wine bowl, and his face suddenly darkened.

"What's wrong with you? Do you look down on me, Luo Dagang?"

Chen Ziang smiled bitterly, raised his neck and poured a large bowl of wine into his throat.

The hot wine flowed down his throat, and Chen Ziang felt his stomach burning.

"That's more like it."

After seeing Chen Ziang also drank a large bowl of wine generously, Luo Dagang's expression eased a little.

"Lieutenant General Chen, come, let's have a drink. I wish our Qinghe Army can overthrow the Far East Dynasty soon!"

Just as Chen Ziang finished drinking, another general came over with a wine bowl.

""Drink!"

Chen Ziang knew that he had already started drinking, so he had no choice but to drink. Otherwise, he would offend others. He had no choice but to drink.

These generals were all from the military, and they could drink a lot. After the meal, Chen Ziang didn't eat a single bite of food, but drank a bellyful of wine. He even staggered and couldn't stand steadily when walking.

"Come on, Brother Chen, let's not go home until we are drunk!" Facing the siege of this group of generals, Chen Ziang really couldn't drink any more.

"General Wang, I have admired you for a long time. I offer you a bowl of wine. Let me drink it first."When Chen Ziang's face turned red from drinking and he was unable to get away, the deputy battalion commander Li Lang came over with a bowl of wine to help Chen Ziang out.

""Good, that's great!"

Seeing that Li Lang drank the whole bowl of wine so readily, the general who was trying to persuade Chen Ziang raised his neck and drank it.

After Li Lang finished drinking, he hurriedly winked at Zhang Bao, who was eating a lot of oil not far away.

Zhang Bao was not stupid, and hurriedly strode over with the wine bowl in his hand.

"General Wang, my name is Zhang Bao, please take care of me in the future!"

Zhang Bao asked someone to fill a bowl of wine for General Wang, and he also drank it first as a toast.

"OK, Brother Zhang,...I will protect you from now on." General Wang drank another bowl.

Those generals who tried to force Chen Ziang to drink were stopped by Zhang Bao and others before they even got close to him. Finally, Chen Ziang breathed a sigh of relief.

The celebration banquet lasted until late at night. Many people were drunk in the mess.

"The deputy commander has ordered that you can stay at the commander's residence and return tomorrow.

Seeing Chen Ziang and his companions drunk, an official from the commander's residence invited Chen Ziang and his companions to stay overnight.

""Go back, go back."

Chen Ziang dared not stay in the mansion now, who knows what conspiracy is waiting for him.

Chen Ziang and his companions were determined to leave, and the official of the mansion could not force them to stay, so he had to send someone to escort them out of the mansion.

The drunken Chen Ziang and his companions, surrounded by their personal guards, quickly returned to their camp outside the city.

"I can walk by myself, I don't need help."

When they entered the camp gate, Chen Ziang changed his drunken appearance, his eyes were clear, and he didn't look drunk at all.

"Sir, you are not drunk, are you?"

Li Changqing, the general of the hundred soldiers, was also surprised to see Chen Ziang like this.

"Remember, we all live on the edge of a knife, and we must keep a clear mind at all times, otherwise, we won't know how we died."

After taking a deep breath of fresh air, Chen Ziang said to Li Changqing, the general of the hundred soldiers, earnestly.

"Sir, I've got it in mind!" Li Changqing nodded seriously.

"Send Leopard and the others back. It's really hard for them to block the wine for me today." Chen Ziang ordered.

"promise!"

"Oh, go get me a basin of cold water."

Chen Ziang strode towards his military tent, not forgetting to instruct the guards following behind him.
