Chapter Eighty-Nine: Inheritance


Got up from the hot spring pool as fast as he could, wiped his body dry, and put on the brand-new military uniform and military boots that had been prepared at the door of the room, Xu Le carefully checked his appearance, some missed the casual clothes he wore to Philadelphia, and some didn't understand why the old man of the military god had to prepare clothes for himself.

Li Pifu was half-hunched towards the outside of the courtyard, his shoulders crumbling like a mountain rock about to collapse.

Xu Le chased after this back, and the hard military boots stepped on the wooden floor, crackling and clear.

"I don't want to be a general."

He glanced at the epaulettes of the major general on the spot, and said loudly to the old man's figure: "I came to Philadelphia, and this is not what I want to say. ” "With your meritorious service to the Federation, you are definitely qualified to be a major general.

But when the Ministry of Defense asked me for my opinion, I held it down.

The old man carried his hands behind his back, walked slowly in the quiet wooden corridor, did not raise his head, and said in a low voice: "After all, you are too young, as compensation, I will give you a piece of clothing to enjoy." ” Hearing this, Xu Le almost tripped and fell to the ground, and once again had a clearer understanding of the surname of the old man of the military god.

Coming to the end of the corridor, Li Pifu slowly stood up, slowly straightened his body, although his movements were slow, but there was some kind of power that people could not doubt, like a peak that was about to collapse due to the erosion of years and months, and stood up again strongly, indifferently looking directly at the ruthless sky.

"I've already called He Yingguan."

Xu Le stopped, looking at the old man's back in a daze, only then did he know that from beginning to end, the old man had not said a word, but he knew his intentions and had made arrangements in advance.

The old man didn't look back, his hands were still behind his back, his old and vein-ridden hands were casual and calm, but they gave people the feeling that as long as he was willing to hold it, he could shatter any star in the universe.

"The victory or defeat of the Xilin lawsuit must be based on federal law, and no matter who it is, this must be respected.

Including you, including me, of course, I must admit that sometimes people like you and me, who have some kind of power, can't help but break through the scope of the law and do something happy and revenge, but this is not right, and you insist on asking the old judge to come forward, and I appreciate your efforts. ” "As for the things you haven't had time to say."

The old man turned his head and looked at him quietly, "Soldiers are not allowed to interfere in politics, this is an iron law, and anyone who tries to break this iron law will be swept into the garbage heap of history." ” A kind of emotion or shock came to Xu Le's heart, and he remembered what Minister Zou said in the hotel office many years ago: The army is not allowed to have its own thoughts, because it will be too dangerous.

As a person with a terrifying military force, but wary of this terrifying force, and independently looking for ways to control this power, and so determined, such a soldier is the real soldier, the central pillar of the Federation.

"Thank you very much for your support."

Xu Le saluted, and then said with a hint of shame: "But I am not qualified to compare with you." ” "Don't be superstitious about the elderly."

A few smiles appeared in the wrinkles on Li Pifu's face, diluting the uncomfortable feeling of old age, "I have never met anyone stronger than me in my life, but I am old after all, and everyone will grow old, just as every young person will grow up." ” "Huaicao poems, Xiaofeng, and you, no matter which angle you have, are qualified to be compared with us back then."

The old man raised his arm and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "Young man, you should have the strength to think that the right thing is right, then do it." ” Philadelphia half said, in the hot spring pool told a long-ago story, Xu Le rubbed the old man's back for a long time, but this action of raising his arm and patting his shoulder was the first time that the old man of the military god used action to express some kind of intimacy, the two were half a meter apart, but Xu Le didn't notice that the old man raised his arm and stretched out his elbow, and he didn't have time to dodge or other reactions, so he found that the old hand fell on his shoulder, and then patted it lightly twice.

Thinking of the cup of yellow tea in the tea room, although he didn't know that the cup of tea had turned into a hookah later, Xu Le still couldn't help but be in awe of the old man's terrifying strength, and couldn't help but think in his heart, In front of an old man like you, which young man dares to think that he is more powerful Huaicao poetry A cadre of orderlies who had been waiting for a long time outside the corridor rushed over, carefully arranging the appearance of Li Pifu and Xu Le, combing their hair, and even two orderlies squatted down to polish their military boots.

Xu Le is very unaccustomed to the feeling of being served by many people, and he doesn't understand why these orderly soldiers who came out of nowhere should take care of themselves, looking at the old man of the military god who is full of white hair hunting and flying under the hair dryer not far in front of him, and he feels that this picture is a little ridiculous and funny.

"As for anything else, there's no need to worry."

The powerful wind force General God's words blew a little erratically, "Although my son can't fight, he is much stronger than everyone in the Federation thinks. ” Hearing this, Xu Le finally put his mind at ease, as long as the old man of the military god agreed to General Li Zaidao as the chairman of the Joint Staff Council, those hard-line hawks in the army could not set off too much storm, not to mention the old man's last indifferent comment showed that he had strong confidence in his biological son.

After the group of orderlies finished dealing with the hairstyles and clothes of the two, they held the mirror and let the two of them take a closer look at themselves, the old and young probably had never had such a serious grooming moment in their lives, so naturally they would no longer comment on the smoothness of the sideburns and boots, and the orderlies saluted collectively, and then quickly withdrew.

After a while, Xu Le knew why this group of orderly soldiers had to take care of his appearance.

A gust of wind rose.

More than a dozen news reporters carrying all kinds of camera equipment walked in from behind the courtyard gate and took pictures of Li Pifu and Xu Le on the stage, and the flash lit up from time to time, making Xu Le's eyes narrow even more, so that he almost didn't hold the right hand that the military god himself deigned to reach.

Holding the old man's somewhat cold, incomparably broad palm, Xu Le looked back at the camera like a puppet, and from the signs of those cameras, he found that he was qualified to enter the Philadelphia courtyard, and the people who shot this scene were the largest news media, including the newspapers and news channels of the Capital Special Administrative Region.

He recognized the famous reporter of the news channel, the Wood reporter of the Capital District newspaper, and even saw the figure of Bai Zeming among these news reporters, this guy who became one of the super-first-class directors of the Federation because of the filming of the seventh group of documentaries, actually came here in person today.

The expressions on the faces of the reporters were very weird, no one greeted Xu Ledang, including Bai Zeming, and even this guy didn't even squeeze his eyes.

There were no interviews, no questions, the reporters just took pictures in silence, choosing the best angle, and making sure to get the best shot.

This kind of collective silence actually made the scene that should have been noisy gradually give birth to a solemn and solemn atmosphere containing a little fanaticism.

Probably because these reporters know very well what the images they take today mean to the Union as a whole, and even to history.

In the courtyard of Philadelphia, on the stone steps, there is the military god Li Pifu and Colonel Xu Le.

They are shaking hands.

That's legacy.

"I also have a question, why are you willing to tell me the story of that year in such detail" "Because, perhaps, in the not-too-distant future, there will be many similar cliché stories going on, so I hope you can learn something from this previous story."

This is the last conversation between the two before Xu Le said goodbye to the old man.

He didn't know what the cliché story might be in the future, he was shocked inexplicably, and he walked along the bluestone path in the rice field and fish pond to the outside of the manor, and then was shocked to find that it was General Lee Jae-do who sent him out of the hospital.

"I really felt a little flattered today."

Xu Le looked at General Lee Jae-do beside him, and explained with some nervousness that at the moment when the chairman of the Joint Council of Federal Staff was about to change, he thought that General Lee Jae-do would definitely stay in the capital region, but he didn't expect that the other party would return to Philadelphia.

For this general who is full of scholarly demeanor, sandwiched between the military gods Li Pifu and Li Feng, and is low-key and does not have the slightest sense of evil, Xu Le's words of flattery are not only because of the other party's special trip to accompany him, but also because of the pictures taken by reporters before.

The glory of the Li family in Philadelphia is the medal of the three generations of the military god Li Pifu, who fought for the bloody battle of the Federation from generation to generation "I don't know exactly what kind of person Uncle is, but I think he has some interesting ideas, and this kind of thing is really a kind of unavoidable pressure sometimes."

General Li Zaidao smiled mildly and said, "I have not been in good health since I was a child, and I can't bear this kind of pressure, so I have to pass the pressure on to Li Feng. ” "Li Feng left home at the age of twelve to enlist in the army, fought and killed, and trained desperately every second, for what was to keep the glory of the Li family, and this was actually a harm to his life."

Facing the slowly falling glow in the west, General Lee Jae-do looked at him and said gently: "So I have always had a strong sense of regret for him, if you can take this pressure away from this family, I thank you from the bottom of my heart." ” Xu Le's lips and tongue were a little dry, and he understood that General Li Zaidao was not hypocritical, thinking of the incident mentioned by Zou Yu, he said heavily: "I'm sorry." ” General Lee Jae-do looked at him quietly and said, "I appreciate everything you have done in the past, so I don't think you have anything to apologize for, at least until now." ” To be continued:
