Check in from the bright sword

Chapter 412

When Zhu Ziming came back, he found that the atmosphere in the regiment headquarters was different.

I saw the miscellaneous personnel of the regiment headquarters all cleaning, sprinkling water, sweeping the floor, cleaning the windows, and a few soldiers were brushing lime on the courtyard wall.

The kitchen is also full of excitement.

A cutting board is placed in the yard.

There is a whole fan of pork on the chopping board.

A few guys were stomping on the ribs with kitchen knives.

Old Wangtou borrowed a large stack of steamers from some fellow villager's house, and put them on the pot for steaming.

I don't know what is steamed in the steamer, but the fragrance is wafting out along with the heat. A few children stood outside the door with their black eyes staring at the steamer.

Lao Wang smiled, opened a bamboo basket, and took out a few boiled eggs from it.

The children took the eggs and ran away happily. Zhu Ziming found that the eggs that Lao Wang gave the children were actually painted with vermilion, and they were red eggs.

"Old Wangtou, what day is it today?" Zhu Ziming asked.

"Officer Zhu, don't you know?" Old Wang laughed and asked Zhu Ziming.

"Know what?" Zhu Ziming said in a daze, "I really don't know."

The old Wangtou chuckled and was about to answer when Zhao Gang's voice suddenly came from outside: "Officer Zhu, come with me to the warehouse and ask Lao Yan for some red silk."

Zhu Ziming responded and rushed to meet him.

While walking towards the warehouse, Zhu Ziming asked, "Political commissar, what are you doing with the red silk?"

Zhao Gang walked like flying, and said without turning his head: "What else can I do, of course it is to tie the sedan chair and pick up the bride."

"What, pick up a bride?" Zhu Ziming said in astonishment, "Political Commissar, does anyone in our independent group want to get married?"

"Yes." Zhao Gang chuckled, and said again, "Old Li is getting married, this is the first wife married by more than 1000 bachelors in our independent group, and he will have a great time."

"Not only must the sedan chair be tied with red silk, but the bride has to step on the red carpet when entering the house."

While the two were talking, they had already reached the gate of the warehouse. Zhao Gang said, "Old Yan? Old Yan!"

Yan Wangcai immediately greeted him from the warehouse, and said with a smile, "Political Commissar, why are you here so early in the morning?"

Zhao Gang said: "Last month, a silk merchant in Suiyuan transported 20 bolts of red silk to our base to exchange for cigarettes. Are those 20 bolts of red silk still in stock?"

"It's here." Yan Wangcai said, "The red silk is hard to get rid of, it's all here."

"It's good to have them all here." Zhao Gang was overjoyed, and said, "Take them all out."

"Political commissar, wait a moment." Yan Wangcai knew why Zhao Gang was taking the red silk, so he took it excitedly.

Seeing Yan Wangcai's excited appearance, his footsteps seemed to become lighter, and then looking around, seeing the beaming soldiers and Zhaojiayu's folks passing by nearby, Zhu Ziming's face suddenly collapsed.

In the Yang family.

Yang Xiuqin's parents left early, and her only brother was the battalion commander of the 120th Division, so she couldn't come back in a hurry.

So there was only one aunt who temporarily acted as the parent's elder to arrange marriage for her, and she was too busy to touch the ground.

Several older girls of about the same age were talking with Yang Xiuqin in the boudoir, all of them looked envious.

A girl said: "Sister Xiuqin, the regiment headquarters of the Independence Regiment is busy now, and the soldiers are busy furnishing new houses for you and Captain Li."

"Really, I just went to see it."

"The windows have been re-pasted, and red happy words have been posted."

"The courtyard walls have been repainted, just like a new house."

"I heard that Captain Li took 20 bolts of red silk from the warehouse. He said that he would use red silk to tie eight sedan chairs and carry Miss Xiuqin through the door. By the way, red silk should be used to pave the floor."

"Sister Xiuqin, we really envy you."

"Our Zhaojiayu has never had such a beautiful marriage before."

"Xiuqin chose a good man, Captain Li has nothing wrong with him except for a bigger head."

"Bah." Yang Xiuqin immediately became unhappy, "I just like his big head, if his head is not big enough, I still won't marry him."

"Xiuqin, is it really because Captain Li has a big head?"

"Damn girl, you are going to die, see if I don't tear your little mouth."

The boudoir burst into laughter for a moment, emitting a strange vitality.

Zhaojiayu didn't have eight sedan chairs, so Zhao Gang took someone to Lijia Town to borrow one.

Just as he brought the eight-carried sedan chair back and put it at the mouth of the village well to wash his grievances, Wang Yan came over.

Zhao Gang ordered Zhang Daniu to say: "Daniu, you lead a few brothers to brush the sedan chair, you must brush carefully, not even a speck of dust falls, do you hear me?"

Zhang Daniu said: "Political commissar, don't worry."

A few Zhangjia cattle raised their heads and picked up the eight-carried sedan chair.

Zhao Gang followed Wang Yan to the old pagoda tree.

Wang Yan said: "Political Commissar, Zhu Ziming sneaked out again."

Zhao Gang frowned and said, "Are you going to see Kazuki Yamamoto?"

"It must be." Wang Yan said, "And most likely he wants to persuade Kazuki Yamamoto to give up his actions."

"Persuade Yamamoto to give up?" Zhao Gang was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said, "Why?"

Wang Yan said: "People's minds are very complicated. Although Zhu Ziming has betrayed the country, the party and the Eighth Route Army, he is still an individual after all. It may be that he still has a little guilt for the head of the regiment in his heart, so I hope that after the wedding is over, we will go back to the party." Let's do it, but Kazuki Yamamoto will not change his plan, he will only be more determined to act."

Zhao Gang nodded, and said again: "Old Wang, are you really not going to tell Lao Li?"

"I really don't want to tell you." Wang Yan shook his head and said, "Don't you know the character of the regiment leader? Once you let him know that the Yamamoto Special Forces are coming to attack our regiment headquarters tonight, can he still be the bridegroom officer with peace of mind?"

"That's true." Zhao Gang nodded and said, "If he knows about this, the wedding will definitely fail."

"This wedding must go ahead as usual." Wang Yan said, "Otherwise, if Kazuki Yamamoto smells something and really gives up on this operation, it will be almost impossible for us to wait for such a good opportunity."

"Political commissar, think about keeping such a powerful enemy, watching him at any time."
