Rise From Eight Hundred

"Brother Tan Tai, after so many years, you are still as charming as ever!" Lieutenant General Wu strode forward and held the hands of the middle-aged man in a long robe, who looked a little haggard but still elegant.

"Brother Wu, you are the same. I heard that you led the army to defeat the Japanese pirates in the battles of Songjiang and Jiashan in Jinling City. I am very proud of you, my old friend! Tan Tai Yunshu is proud to be your friend." The middle-aged man's haggard face also showed a smile.

"Brother Tan Tai, you are too kind. If you really want to be proud, you should be proud of yourself. Who let you give birth to such a good daughter!" Lieutenant General Wu was very happy and pulled the middle-aged man in the long robe and walked in. "Come, drink some hot tea at my headquarters first!"

"My little girl?" The middle-aged man in the long robe was slightly stunned, and his face was full of pride and modesty at the same time: "Mingyue is just using her pen, but she is far inferior to the soldiers who shed blood for the country on the front line."

"That's not what you think, brother Tan Tai!" Lieutenant General Wu blinked, but his smile became mysterious.

For some reason, when he thought of his elegant old friend who was about to become the father-in-law of a cunning young man, Lieutenant General Wu had the urge to laugh out loud.

It was for a certain army colonel who was still in the dark, and also for the Jiangnan talent who was known for his calligraphy, painting and poetry. If this person knew that his precious cabbage was about to be taken away by a wild boar, how angry would he be?

No one knows what Jiangnan Dacai would think, but Wolong knows it well. If it were him, the daughter he had carefully raised for twenty years would suddenly become another man's wife. He would definitely want to chop off the other person, no matter if the guy looks like Pan An or is as talented as Xin Youan.

Although he felt that the smile of his old friend who he hadn't seen for three years was quite strange, Tan Tai Yunshu might have something on his mind, or maybe the two of them were different in civil and military affairs in the northwest, but they had similar interests and made close friends, so he didn't take it too seriously.

As soon as he sat down at the command center, Lieutenant General Wu noticed that his old friend looked at the two guards who were standing very close and very vigilantly, constantly glancing at the two of them. He smiled slightly, waved to the two personal guards, and signaled that they didn't need to be so nervous and asked them to go away.

The two guards were a little helpless and walked five or six meters outside, but they didn't want to be too far away from the two people in the house.

This is wartime. Even if the commander had said before that this was his old friend, who knows what he is like? Who knows if this middle-aged man who rashly ran to the battlefield has any evil intentions?

"Brother Tan Tai, this is the front line. I don't think you just happened to pass by! If you need any help from me, just tell me. I will do my best to help you!" Lieutenant General Wu was thoughtful. When he saw his old friend's expression, he knew that he must have come here to ask for something, and it was not a simple matter. Otherwise, he would not have avoided his personal guards. He simply got straight to the point.

"That's right. I heard from the radio that you led the troops to deploy defenses in Jiashan, so I set out from Jinling to wait for you here. I have been waiting for you here for three days." Tan Tai Yunshu nodded.

Lieutenant General Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, "You say!"

"That's right." Tan Tai Yunshu no longer concealed and said what he needed in one breath, with a pleading look in his eyes: "I have thought about this matter over and over again, and I can only ask you to help me. I don't feel at ease if it's someone else."

Lieutenant General Wu took a breath and didn't speak for a long time.

Sending an infantry battalion is not a big problem, but the key is that the place where this person is going makes him a little embarrassed. According to the military order, his 67th Army is going to Jiangbei for repairs. If an infantry battalion of his 67th Army goes north, if that person knows about it, he will have some bad associations. And here is not only his 67th Army, but also the 57th Army and the 49th Army in the southeast. If that person makes a fuss in his heart and pushes the Northeast Army to the front line, then he will be the sinner of the already declining Northeast Army.

But it's not easy for the old friend to ask for help once, and this favor cannot be ignored. A courageous Lieutenant General Wu can't hesitate at this time.

People who can become friends may not all have the same personality, but they must have something in common. Seeing that his old friend was hesitant after listening to his request for help, Tan Tai Yunshu, who was very tough at heart, did not beg him. He stood up and said, "Commander Wu, you must have your own difficulties. Then I will think of other ways. My daughter is a military reporter in the army. I am grateful to you for your care. Tan Tai Yunshu will remember this kindness in his heart."

"Haha!" Seeing that his old friend was angry and even called out the position of commander, Lieutenant General Wu had a bitter smile on his face. He was about to tell the truth and explain it, but he heard his old friend talking about Tan Tai Mingyue, and his eyes lit up, but he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Seeing that he was angry, this old friend seemed to enjoy making him angry and laughed so happily. Tan Tai Yunshu became even angrier and bowed: "Goodbye! I won't see you off!"

"Hey, old Tan Tai, how can you be so narrow-minded? I didn't say I wouldn't help you." Lieutenant General Wu grabbed Tan Tai Yunshu who was about to leave. "I will help you with this favor, and I promise you that I will send the most elite infantry battalion of the first division of the two armies in Jiashan to help you. You know, in the battle to completely wipe out the Japanese invaders' Sixth Heavy Artillery Brigade, this infantry battalion was the main force to break through the Sixth Heavy Artillery Brigade's position."

"Thank you so much." Tan Tai Yunshu's eyes lit up immediately when he heard his old friend say this, and the anger that was about to burst out just now had no idea where it flew away.

What he asked for involved the lives of hundreds of people, and it was not something that could be done by an elite army. With such an infantry battalion, the possibility of success was greatly increased.

"But! It's not enough for me, the commander-in-chief, to say this. It depends on your daughter's opinion." Lieutenant General Wu said with a smile.

"Mingyue is just a reporter. How can she decide such a major military matter?" Doubt surged on Tan Tai Yun Shu's face.

Just think carefully, as an old friend, he might not agree, but once he agrees, he will never shirk responsibility, not to mention the irrelevant reason of pushing the decision-making power to his own daughter.

"Just tell me if you want to see your daughter! If you insist on pretending not to see me, then I can't do anything. If little Mingyue doesn't speak, I, the commander-in-chief, can't transfer that infantry battalion." Lieutenant General Wu continued to smile.

"Then meet!" Tan Tai Yun Shu nodded calmly, but his eyes were full of joy and expectation.

Tan Tai is a prominent family in Jiangnan. Tan Tai Yunshu has shown his talent in calligraphy and painting since he was young. He is valued by the elders in the family. He has been living a life of luxury since he was young. Even if he travels around the world to gain more knowledge, he is always surrounded by five or six people to protect him. He rarely rides alone for hundreds of miles like now. If it weren't for the pass issued by the Jinling City Defense Command, he might have been robbed several times.

In addition to that extremely important matter, he also wanted to see his precious daughter who had been away from home for more than half a year!

Thinking about it now, he regretted it very much. If he didn't let her go to a girls' high school and university, she might still be at home with her parents, instead of doing such a dangerous thing. Since he knew that she went to the Songhu battlefield as a war correspondent, he, as a father, has not slept a good night's sleep. His old wife, who had moved to Jiangxia with the family, was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. She sent him a telegram almost every day urging him to bring his daughter home, otherwise she would divorce him.

Divorce! This new word came from the mouth of his old wife, who was born as a lady from a noble family. Tan Tai Yunshu could fully imagine his old wife's helplessness.

However, no one knows a daughter better than her father. Tan Tai Yunshu knew that his daughter was a very opinionated person. As long as she made the right decision, almost no one could persuade her to turn back.

And the terrible thing was that her work as a reporter was impeccable no matter how you looked at it. Just like he had taught his children when they were young: whether we study literature or martial arts, we are all for the rise of China.

This is my China! What's wrong with the choice of the little cotton jacket?

However, children are like vines to melons to their parents, how can they not worry about them?

It is normal for a mischievous son to make people worry, but even the little cotton jacket makes people so worried, the Jiangnan talent must be very bitter!

Thinking that he would see the little cotton jacket soon, the Jiangnan talent who was already more than half calm in his mind, was now flying in the air.

"The military situation is urgent. I have a military meeting to attend soon. I won't send you there. Let Xiaochong take you there." Wolong said after sending his old friend who couldn't wait to go out.

"Brother Wu, you do your thing. I'll go by myself." Tan Tai Yunshu was not polite either. He followed the leading guard in front of him. He was very agile. Before he finished speaking, he trotted out more than ten meters.

He didn't look back, otherwise he would have seen his old friend's joy. The little tongue in his throat was clearly visible.

"Tang Dao boy, I gave you a big gift. I sent your child's future father-in-law here. It depends on whether you have enough ability." Watching his old friend's hurried figure disappear, Wolong was so happy.

"Military commander, what abilities do you need to meet your father-in-law?" A guard on the side saw a certain lieutenant general laughing so 'obscene', and couldn't help but ask for advice out of curiosity.

This is the confusion of single dogs. They instinctively have a fear of creatures like Lao Taishan.

In fact, no one likes a guy who "sleeps" with his own girl. No matter how stupid a man is, he knows this.

"First of all, you have to have a good body that can withstand a beating! Haha!" Wolong's expression was as comfortable as if he had killed a Japanese division. "When Xiaochong comes back later, remember to ask him to report to me everything about the encounter between Lao Tantai and Xiaohuli."

"Commander, your daughter seems to be twelve years old." The personal guard who can block bullets for his commander at any time is almost like a family member. He carefully reminded a certain lieutenant general who was laughing happily.

"Damn it! Get out!"...

PS: Ouch! There are really too many smart people who let everyone guess, and basically guessed it. I didn't go home until after 8 o'clock. I wrote for more than two hours and sent 3,000 words.
