The dishes are served, the wine is arranged, and the people are all there.
Half an hour after Zhang Wei got Tu Zongxi's "point", the officers who came to the table arrived one after another, six tables, a total of forty or fifty officers, the compound of the military headquarters, suddenly became very crowded, at the same time, the atmosphere became more lively, the officers were all seated, and the tables were constantly filled with the meals and dishes served by the soldiers.
The atmosphere gradually warmed up, the courtyard was lively, and this celebration banquet could be regarded as a climax.
Although there was no banquet, Commander Du, Chief of Staff and others did not appear, but this did not hinder the communication of the officers, people arrived, and the tables were basically all the officers who came to talk about sitting together, and the movement of chatting was getting bigger and bigger, and the wine table culture was also popular in the army.
The food at the military headquarters of the Fifth Army is quite rich, with wine and meat, and this level of food really matches the status of the Fifth Army in the national army, and the cost of this table celebration banquet is not small.
On each table, there is a large iron pot of stewed pork, hot pork, stewed with bean sprouts and dried vegetables, and the heat emitted from the iron pot raises the temperature in the yard by a few degrees.
The chicken is too small, the amount is small, the meat is small, the meat is not open enough to eat, and the beef is neither affordable nor easy to find.
The only thing that can be done is this pork, so whenever the troops open meat, nine times out of ten they eat stewed pork.
The boiling pork exuded an attractive aroma on the table, hooking the officers who were accustomed to eating rough meals on the battlefield, and they had not seen meat for a long time Guilin rice noodles as its name suggests, is the characteristics of Guilin, Guangxi, is the army from Guilin to buy, the same Guangxi characteristics and Sanhua wine, today seems to be released in the army, each table has two jars of Sanhua wine, each officer in front of a dark green military lunch box as a wine glass, there are a few bottles of red wine after the Sanhua wine, although it does not match the dish, but it is also a combination of Chinese and Western.
For a while, in the courtyard, the aroma of meat, rice noodles, and the smell of Sanhua wine were mixed together, and the atmosphere was hot.
Zhang Wei sat on the ammunition box, looking at the food in front of him, pork, rice noodles, multigrain steamed buns, lettuce, and two kinds of wine, thinking that the military headquarters of the Fifth Army was indeed rich and had a way, and even red wine had brought in so much.
Of course, because the food of the teaching brigade on weekdays is too good, Zhang Wei is not very interested in these meat and vegetable rice noodles.
Most of the officers at the same table had already arrived, and Wang Qichao, director of the Ordnance Division, and Cao Zhenfang, chief of the Quartermaster Division, who had met during Chief Du's inspection, were also at the table, and Zhang Wei greeted them.
Zhang Wei's table is obviously the core table of the celebration banquet, and at this time, everyone has arrived, except for several senior officers in the army such as Commander Du.
The army commander and the chief of staff, these are the first and second in command, the big boss, he always has to appear last.
Tu Zongxi, the commander of the special service battalion, was at ease at the table, talking and joking with the officers at the table.
Zhang Wei looked at Tu Zongxi's performance, although he is a lieutenant colonel, his military rank is low, but he is quite popular, he is at ease in the crowd, and he "mentions" himself according to Chief Du's instructions, it can be seen that this person is not simple.
The officers at each table were all pulling their skins and talking.
"Come, Zhang Wei, I'll introduce you."
Tu Zongxi suddenly stopped Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei immediately stood up.
Tu Zongxi pointed to an officer and said: "This is Major General Che Fanru, chief of the military staff department, and this is Colonel Fang Fangsun, director of the Military Justice Division, this is Peng Bisheng, major general and regiment commander of the first regiment of the army's field supplement. ” "Hello Chiefs" Zhang Wei saluted and greeted the "big guys".
"Director Wang and Director Cao, you know, so I won't bother to speak."
Tu Zongxi pointed to a colonel and said, "This is Xie Weiyun, the colonel of the Second Field Supplementary Regiment, the senior of the fourth phase of Huangpu. ” "Hello Sir" Zhang Wei turned his gaze to Xie Weiyun and said.
Xie Weiyun nodded at Zhang Wei.
These officers at the same table, even if Zhang Wei knows each other, he thinks no wonder he is at the same table with the army commander, these people have the right to be soldiers, either the regiment commander, the unit commander, or the director of the military department, not to mention anything else, just the director of the military justice department, Fang Fangsun, who can decide the life and death at the critical moment, who is not in a good fight, who escapes from the battle, or violates the law and discipline, all must pass from him, shoot a lieutenant, and don't even have to blink his eyes.
These people have soldiers, power, and even a word, they can decide the life and death of others.
After Tu Zongxi said a series of names, he cleared his throat.
"Ahem, everyone, I don't know if you still remember Qiu Maniac, the new 22nd Division Teaching Brigade of Division Commander Qiu" Tu Zongxi sold a pass.
"Hehe, of course I remember, I annihilated the Takeda Brigade of the 21st Wing of the Japanese Army on the side of the road, and conquered Luotang in the Battle of Kunlun Pass, the first highland of the Jie, and the battle was very good."
Peng Bisheng, who was wearing glasses, wearing a tweed military uniform and a tweed hat, said Peng Bisheng, deputy commander of the First Field Supplementary Regiment of the Fifth Army and Major General of the 200th Division.
Xie Weiyun, the commander of the Second Regiment of the Field Supplement, said quickly: "How can you not remember, the military seat took the brigade of Division Commander Qiu to order the whole army, and the infantry brigade that ate a devil alive, the officers of the entire Fifth Army, who are not ashamed of the contemptible, fought in the same direction as the new 22nd Division, and took my brothers from the 2nd Field Supplement Regiment to fight with the 21st Wing of the Devil, but unfortunately, the combat effectiveness of the 2nd Regiment of my field supplement is limited, and it can only fight and disturb the battle." ” Zhang Wei was still standing, smiling slightly, it seemed that his fame was worthwhile.
"Those know who this major is" Fang Fangsun, the chief of the Judge Advocate General's office, his eyes lit up: "Could it be that this is it?"
Tu Zongxi nodded: "This is the captain of the teaching brigade of the new 22nd Division, Zhang Wei, a student of the tenth phase of the military academy, however, this teaching brigade is no longer subordinate to Division Commander Qiu's troops." ” "Zhang Wei, salute all the chiefs."
Zhang Wei saluted the officers again, and in the face of so many officers who were bigger than his position, he couldn't avoid saluting and greeting repeatedly.
"Sit down, sit down, the equipment you captured is genuine, my surname Xie admires the fight is really enjoyable, just a brigade, a battalion-level unit, drag to death and play to death a devil brigade, fight beautifully" Xie Weiyun, the head of the Second Wild Supplement Regiment, seemed to be very happy, patted the table, and said to Zhang Wei arrogantly.
As soon as the words were spoken, the officers on the table all knew Zhang Wei, and Tu Zongxi motioned for Zhang Wei to sit down.
"The military seat is here, the staff seat is here" Zhang Wei's butt had just touched the ammunition box, and a loud voice came.
With a "pop", the lively courtyard suddenly quieted down, and I saw that Chief Du, Huang Xiang, and a few officers walked out of the big house, and the supreme commander of the Fifth Army, Chief Du, was wearing a clean military uniform, wearing a German-style combat cap on his head, and an armed belt around his waist, with a revolver pinned to it, and a few pistol bullets inserted in the gun belt, walking on riding boots.
The officers in the courtyard collectively stood up and stood upright.
"Good military seat" Chief Du walked forward slowly, nodded, and finally, walked to the main table where Zhang Wei was, glanced at the officers at this table, including Zhang Wei, and then, picked up a military rice bowl, and the guards around him were very discerning, and immediately poured Sanhua wine on the lunch box in Chief Du's hand.
The officers and guards all stood solemnly and looked at the commander with serious faces.
Commander Du raised his wine and immediately spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, today, in order to celebrate the victory of our army against the Japanese invaders near Kunlun Pass, our military headquarters will hold a small celebration banquet here, in this battle, the officers and soldiers of this army fought bravely, annihilated the Japanese defenders of Kunlun Pass, and also gave its peripheral reinforcements a considerable blow, and completed the task assigned to our Fifth Army by the Military Commission. to celebrate this hard-won victory" "Bang Bang Bang" I don't know who took the lead, someone applauded, and brought up the officers and soldiers of the whole courtyard, and Zhang Wei, who was close to Chief Du, also clapped his hands.
Chief Du shouted: "Okay" "Everyone fills up the wine and serves it" There are soldiers waiting at each table, the soldiers have opened the mud seal of the Sanhua wine on the table, and a smell of wine wafts out, the soldiers hold the wine jar, pour wine for the officers on the table, and dozens of officers have raised their wine glasses.
Zhang Wei grabbed the lunch box and held it, and a rich aroma of wine flowed out of it.

Chief Du's face was serious, and he raised the wine glass in his hand.
"This first cup of wine, the wine at the banquet, I want to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers of my Fifth Army, without them, there would be no victory of our Fifth Army, for the troops directly under our Fifth Army, the first division of honor, the new 22nd Division, the 200th Division, the 4,100 brothers who died in battle, for the commander of Shao Yizhi who died on the outskirts of Nanning, and for all the officers and soldiers who died in this battle, I salute this first bowl of wine."
A sad atmosphere arose in the courtyard, and Zhang Wei was also moved.
Even if the casualties of the Japanese army in Kunlun Pass increased sharply because of Zhang Wei, the Fifth Army still had to pay the price, and the Fifth Army killed 4,100 brothers in the reinforcement battle near Kunlun Pass.
They were, in the early battle, with the strength of one regiment against a multi-wing of the Japanese army, and Shao Yizhi, the commander of the 600th Regiment of the 200th Division, who was martyred; In the battle of blocking and reinforcement, the officers and soldiers of the 1st and 200th Supplementary Regiments who were killed in the attack on the Japanese army, and the officers and soldiers of the 1st and 200th Divisions of the Honor Division who were killed in the siege of Kunlun Pass; There are also officers and soldiers of the teaching brigade who died in the siege and annihilation of the Takeda Brigade and the attack on Luotang and the head of the world.
It was because of their lives and blood that this inspiring victory took place.
A glass of Sanhua wine was poured on the ground in Guinan by Chief Du, and all the officers in the courtyard poured the wine in their hands on this land that was integrated with the blood of the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Army, and everyone present was moved.
"Okay, after the first glass of wine, before the banquet, I will announce a few more orders, Zhang Wei, the captain of the teaching brigade of the new 22nd Division, who has repeatedly made meritorious contributions in the battle, I believe you all already know this person, this person is at the banquet, and the teaching brigade has also been transferred to the sequence directly under our army, I announce that Zhang Wei will be promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel and the meritorious personnel of each division, and he will also be rewarded for his meritorious deeds, so as to inspire our officers and soldiers and make new achievements."
Zhang Wei, who was at the same table, was dumbfounded, at the banquet, this, this became a lieutenant colonel ：。
