Reborn as a prince, achieve the pinnacle of power

As the lights come on, the bright lights of Shangri-La Hotel are like stars in the night sky, extremely charming.

In a supreme and luxurious box on the top floor, soft lights sprinkled on the exquisite tableware, reflecting a delicate luster; flowers and green plants dotted in between, exuding a faint fragrance...

The heavy wooden door was slowly pushed open, and Zhang Hao, dressed in a neat military uniform, walked in under the guidance of the waiter.

"Brother, sister-in-law Yitong and sister-in-law Xiaolu!"

Zhang Hao stepped into the box with joy on his face. When his eyes met those of Young Master Chu and the other three, at that moment, it seemed as if a warm current flowed through his eyes. He quickly stood still and saluted with a standard military salute in a neat and clear movement.

"Xiaohao."

Young Master Chu smiled and looked up and down at Zhang Hao with interest.

Then, he took a small step forward, stretched out his broad palm and gently patted Zhang Hao's shoulder, his praise was overflowing with words: "Haha, really good! Look at you now, you have completely become a qualified soldier, a tough guy with iron bones!"

"you do not say."

Hearing this, Li Yitong also walked up quickly. With a friendly smile on her face, she said gently, "Xiaohao, it's only been half a year since we last met, and you've really changed a lot! You can be said to have been reborn."

At this time, Bai Xiaolu, who had been standing quietly beside him, had her beautiful eyes flickering slightly, revealing a bit of curiosity, and asked softly: "I heard Yu Chen mention that the successful raid on the Eagle Sauce Putian base seemed to be commanded by you?"

Zhang Hao couldn't help scratching his head a little embarrassedly after hearing this. He smiled shyly, and then quickly replied modestly: "Sister-in-law, that's impossible! It was all planned by brother. I'm just a soldier under brother. I obey his command and arrangements in everything."

"Okay, okay, sit down and talk slowly."

Young Master Chu smiled and waved at Zhang Hao, motioning him to take a seat. After Zhang Hao sat down, Young Master Chu turned to look at Bai Xiaolu, nodded slightly, and said, "You can notify the waiter to serve the food."

Bai Xiaolu smiled faintly and waved to the waiter. Soon, dishes that looked good, smelled good and tasted good were placed on the table by the waiter.

A bottle of aged Moutai was opened by the waiter and poured into the wine jug, exuding a rich and mellow aroma.

Zhang Hao stood up and took the wine jug, filling it up for Young Master Chu. He looked at Li Yitong and Bai Xiaolu, and seeing the two women smiling and shaking their heads, he did not persuade them any further.

"elder brother!"

Holding the wine glass in both hands, Zhang Hao looked at Master Chu with a little excitement and said slowly: "I have to toast you first. Thank you for your cultivation and guidance. Without your help, I would not have achieved what I have today."

Young Master Chu raised his glass with a smile and said in response: "Xiaohao, you have grown up and matured. This is due to your own efforts and talent. I just played a guiding role. Come, let's drink this glass together. I wish you a bright future and move forward courageously."

The two of them clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

Zhang Hao filled up two more glasses, and then toasted Li Yitong and Bai Xiaolu respectively.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

After drinking a bottle of Moutai, the waiter refilled the jug with wine again and then signaled Mr. Chu to leave the box.

"Xiaohao."

Young Master Chu smiled slightly and raised his wine glass: "Come on, let's go for another one."

After the two brothers drank it all again, Young Master Chu looked at the tipsy Zhang Hao, stared at him with a smile, and asked, "Xiao Hao, do you have any plans for your future?"

Zhang Hao put down his wine glass and replied solemnly: "Brother, I will follow your arrangements."

"What do you think in your own mind?"

Young Master Chu looked at him with a smile: "Although I am your brother, I still want to ask for your opinion."

Zhang Hao was silent for a moment, then smiled and shook his head and said, "You know me well. I have never had any big ambitions since I was a child... Even when I joined the army, you forced me to join the barracks. So, I still hope you can make plans for me."

Young Master Chu stared at Zhang Hao for a few seconds, then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly: "Okay, since you said so, then I will talk about it according to the route I think is most suitable for you."

He put down his glass, leaned forward slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "You now have some experience in leading troops, but you lack the systematic accumulation of theoretical knowledge.

I think you can further your studies in a military academy, pursue a master's or even a doctorate degree, and focus on professional knowledge in areas such as military strategy and national defense management.

This will not only consolidate your existing practical skills, but also greatly enhance your influence in future high-level decision-making.”

"Of course... this is just a general direction, and it is impossible to achieve it all in one go... You can learn to a certain stage, then lead the troops for a while, and then move on to the next stage of learning..."

Young Master Chu's words were full of profound meaning. For the first time, he publicly told everyone his long-term development plan for Zhang Hao.

Li Yitong and Bai Xiaolu looked at each other, and their similar pretty faces frowned slightly at the same time. Based on their understanding of Young Master Chu, they had a bad feeling about Zhang Hao's marriage.

Zhang Hao listened very attentively. He knew that Mr. Chu's advice would have a profound impact on his life, so he kept every word in mind.

After a moment, he raised his head, his eyes flashing with determination: "Brother, I remember every word you said, and I will work hard according to your plan.

But... I have another little idea and I need your opinion."

"Oh."

Young Master Chu raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "Tell me what you think?"

Zhang Hao said seriously: "In addition to military affairs, I also have a certain interest in science and technology.

Especially the rapid development of drone technology and artificial intelligence applications in recent years.

I hope to be able to dabble in this area. After all, future battlefields will increasingly rely on high technology, and I’m afraid that if I don’t keep up, I might fall behind.”

"Very good, Xiaohao, it seems that you have thought about these issues seriously."

Young Master Chu showed an appreciative expression on his face and nodded in agreement:

“This is a very good idea, and in fact, it’s one I’ve always advocated.

Face-to-face warfare is about to become history, and future battlefields will be dominated by information technology, intelligent weapons and remote combat.

Drones, satellite communications, cyber warfare, and data analysis are all key elements of modern warfare. Your interest in this and your willingness to invest in research and study is exactly what I expect to see..."

After a brief pause, Young Master Chu's eyes sparkled with brilliance, and he emphasized:

"One more thing. As a new frontier, space is becoming increasingly important. You can also pay attention to this area. It is not only a military high ground, but also the future of our Great Xia... We will conquer the interstellar ocean sooner or later."

Zhang Hao's blood boiled when he heard this, and he said with determination: "Brother, I will definitely not let you down."
