Zhao Gangwu Intended to Read the Little Picture Book for Everyone
The North China battlefield had not seen much fighting recently.
However, the banquet was held one after another.
Pingjin, the sixth banquet in three days. This time, the people who returned were business people. They were not the top big shots, but some small and medium-sized merchants.
Those top merchants had already been invited by Jiang Dingguo two days ago.
These people didn't dare to not come when Commander Jiang was treating them.
When they arrived, they started to listen to Marshal Jiang brag.
At first, no one believed it.
Marshal Jiang had gone too far.
One moment, he was bragging about how his son had single-handedly killed an entire cavalry regiment.
After a while, he bragged about his son leading the Independent Regiment to fight against the famous Sakata United Army, capturing Nobutetsu Sakata alive, breaking through the Sakata United Army, and scaring off the three large allied forces in the northwest of Jin. That night, they retreated hundreds of miles.
"Listen to this guy's bragging!"
"Damn it, if the train was blown by people, Marshal Jiang could blow the train from Guangzhou to Los Angeles by himself.”
"We've heard of the reputation of the Sakata United Army in Pingjin. They're the elites of the Japanese army. How could they be defeated by his son?”
"I've heard of his son a long time ago. He's a pale-faced scholar who can't do anything but is good at ruining things. Can he defeat the Japanese? As long as you don't pee your pants."
"Haha, what a joke. Didn't he also boast that his son defeated a cavalry regiment alone? This time, it was even more exaggerated. They had defeated an infantry regiment. That was more than 4,000 people. Even if there were 4,000 pigs, his son would be so scared that he would pee his pants.”
"Just listen to him brag. I'm already used to listening to him brag.”
"To be able to make a good-for-nothing son into a national hero, this must be Marshal Jiang's ability.”
"Hehe, that's right. I'm afraid that's how Marshal Jiang's flag was blown up, right?”
" That son of Marshal Jiang is just a useless fool. Don't be fooled by his boasting. Let's see how many people will laugh at him when he shows his true colors…"
"It's just…"
The discussion in the banquet was not soft.
Even the big shots sitting in the main seats in front could hear it.
Naturally, they were Yan Xishan, Wu Jinsi, Duan Qirui, and the other warlords.
In the beginning, they had the same thoughts as these ordinary people.
But now, they were already breaking out in cold sweat.
Because they had already received accurate news.
The Sakata United Team had indeed been destroyed, and even Nobutetsu Sakata had been captured.
The one who did all this was the independent regiment that Jiang Dingguo's son had parachuted into.
Although the independent regiment had some achievements in the past, it was all thanks to their wise commander, Li Yun Long.
However, Li Yun Long had already been transferred to feed the pigs.
In that case, this battle was obviously the work of Jiang Donglai who had come out of nowhere.
It was true that not only did they cripple Sakata United.
It was also true that the three regiments of Northwest Jin withdrew their defenses overnight.
Whether it was Yan Xishan, Wu Congfu, or Duan Qirui, they didn't have a good night's rest after confirming the authenticity of the news.
They never dreamed that Jiang Dingguo, that old man with a venomous tongue, would have such a son who could vent his anger.
They even wondered if this old man had deliberately shown weakness in front of others and pretended to be a good-for-nothing in the past.
Regardless, Jiang Dingguo, the son of this old man, was still worthy of respect.
Therefore, Jiang Dingguo treated them to a meal every day, and they gave him face every day.
Although these merchants were secretly cursing happily in private, none of them dared to refuse when Jiang Dingguo asked them to pay up.
Sure enough, after he finished talking about his son's acting tough history, Jiang Dingguo's tone changed.
"I've shared so much of my son's heroic deeds with everyone today. I'm sure everyone will be as touched as I am.”
"After all, who would reject such an outstanding boy?”
"Since everyone is so touched, then I have a favor to ask of you. That is to donate some compensation money for those heroic independent regiment soldiers.”
" They are all real warriors, real men who accompanied my son to fight against the Japanese. I, Jiang Dingguo, admire them. Now, I will give everyone a chance to admire them with me. I hope that everyone will not be ungrateful. After all, I will only share such a grand honor with you.”
The merchants 'faces twitched.
God damn glory.
Only a ghost would want this stupid opportunity you gave me.
And he only fucking shared it with us?
Then what did the big businessmen, rich men, landowners, politicians, and leaders of various industries donate?
Although there were countless lines in his heart that he wanted to say.
However, when it came to donating, they did not dare to be careless.
After all, they knew that Marshal Jiang wasn't a nice person to talk to.
Besides them, Yan Xishan and the others donated every time.
Although they only donated 1,000 yuan each time, they had already donated 6,000 yuan each for six meals in a few days…
Jiang Donglai didn't know that this was how his father's 100,000 yuan came from.
The independent regiment was really injured this time.
His bones were hurt.
If Li Yunlong came back now, Jiang Donglai wouldn't know how to answer to him.
Fortunately, there was still time.
Moreover, it was time for the independent regiment to change its direction…
The first thing Jiang Donglai had to do was to solve the problem of their combat strength.
If everyone could find their own ability from Jiang Donglai's book, that would be awesome.
However, it was obvious that not many people had such luck.
However, Zhao Gang was clearly worth a try!
Zhao Gang had been very disappointed ever since he came back from the battlefield. Even the government affairs were handled by Zhang Dabiao and the others.
Jiang Donglai invited him over for a drink.
Zhao Gang was drunk and made a scene. Jiang Donglai wanted him to read a book and imitate Zhang Dabiao.
However, this guy was too drunk and could not read at all.
It was not until the next day when he sobered up that Jiang Donglai asked him to read again. He went straight to the point and explained it to him as if he was facing Duan Peng. Only then did he open Jiang Donglai's little children's books with deep confusion and doubt.
Zhao Gang was a scholar, a real cultured person.
He wanted to laugh when he saw Jiang Donglai's comics.
He felt that it was either too childish or too stupid.
People in this era lacked imagination, especially these cultured people.
They read things with their own set of thoughts.
Therefore, he couldn't read comics.
Jiang Donglai recommended him to read a novel.
Zhao Gang was actually very picky when it came to reading.
Ordinary books really did not enter his eyes.
It was only when he saw Hero Jin's Biography of Qiao Feng that he finally began to meditate…
