All the people left their homes and took to the streets. Cheer, laugh, march or even cry to express your feelings. Teahouses, hotels, streets and alleys are full of laughter and laughter, and of course there are also cries of missing the families and friends of those who died in this defense battle. In order to celebrate this great victory and expand the influence of their own families, the Zhan and Wei families, with Wu Feng's consent, decided to hold a grand ceremony in the grand competition field in the west of Qingyang City on the afternoon of October 18th. Celebration gathering, a bonfire party will be held after the meeting -
After Wu Feng learned through the scouts he sent that the Luo Bei army had left Qingyang Prefecture, he immediately held a military meeting. Liang Chongxin also led more than 500 cavalry back to Fucheng unharmed on the morning of October 18. Participating in the meeting were Xiao Tang, Liang Chongxin, Cui Wenxiu, Mulige, Lu Man, and Kamapov (deputy captain of the Fourth Brigade of the Fourth Wing. Due to his outstanding performance in the battle and his absolute loyalty to Wu Feng, During the battle, Wu Feng made an incisive analysis of the strength of the enemy and ourselves, and summarized the reasons for the victory of this battle, and the seven members of Kang Jianguo. Issues that will be paid attention to in future battles, and arrangements are made for the work that the troops will do in the near future -
At the meeting, Wu Feng clearly proposed that he would leave the city guard system and not return to the imperial capital, but use Qingyang Mansion as a base for development. For this, four of the seven people present were already mentally prepared, and Mulige, Kamapov, and Kang Jianguo, due to their infinite loyalty to Wu Feng, were a little surprised, but they had no objections. Wufeng also ordered the immediate formation of the Qingyang Prefecture's First Guard Division. He was temporarily appointed as the division commander, and Liang Chongxin, Cui Wenxiu, Mulige, Kamapov, and Kang Jianguo were appointed as the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth respectively. The captains of the regiments were each expanded from the five brigades of the original Fourth Regiment. The personnel were drawn from the skirmishers and recruits of the original Imperial Western Expeditionary Army. Luman served as the director of the logistics department of the division, and the chief of staff of the division temporarily vacancy. Wu Feng also asked Luman to arrange for medical staff to step up the treatment of nearly 6,000 wounded people and strive to return to the team as soon as possible. Wu Feng also asked all ministries to step up the training of the troops, especially the new recruits, after taking the necessary rest, and strive to increase the combat effectiveness of the troops to the level of the Fourth Regiment of the Third Division of the City Guards Corps that he led before the war as soon as possible -
The celebration started on time at four o'clock in the afternoon. After ordering Mulige to arrange the city defense duty, Wu Feng led all his officers at all levels to attend the celebration. The celebration ceremony was very grand, and the venue was still in the arena. The rostrum was set up on the wooden platform that was simply built last time. Wu Feng was arranged to sit in the middle. On his left were Xiao Tang, Liang Chongxin, Cui Wenxiu, Mu Lige, Kamapov and Kang Jianguo, and on the right are Zhan Zhaobai, Wei Dongchen and several other influential figures in Qingyang City who contributed to the defense of Qingyang City. There are nearly 70,000 people in the audience. People, almost all the people came with their young and old to participate in this celebration -
First, Zhan Zhaobai made a passionate speech on behalf of the people in the city to thank the Imperial Army led by Wu Feng for their sacrifice and contribution to the defense of Qingyang Mansion. Then Wei Dongchen expressed his gratitude to those who performed outstandingly in this defense battle. Liang Chongxin, Cui Wenxiu, Mulige, Kamapov, Kang Jianguo and others gave extremely sensational speeches about the heroic deeds. Tens of thousands of people in the audience listened with great enthusiasm, and even the several parties sitting on the stage were fascinated. It was also quite moving, which made Wu Feng very surprised that Wei Dongchen still had such good eloquence, which could almost catch up with those professional storytellers who make a living from this -
After the successful speech, the celebration started with a small event, that is, Zhan Zhaobai announced that he would lay wreaths for several heroes who performed outstandingly in this defense battle, and Xiao Tang announced the list of winners of this honor. Famous officers came on stage one after another, and a group of beautiful girls, dressed in bright costumes, held garlands and presented wreaths to the heroes. Wu Feng took the lead and stood up to applaud. There was thunderous applause on and off the stage, and the entire venue was immersed in a warm and joyful atmosphere. middle-
Finally, Wei Dongchen announced that he would invite Mr. Li Wufeng, the greatest hero and commander of the battle and the patron saint of the Qingyang people, to speak. Wu Feng was in a very different mood from delivering a speech here a few days ago. Wu Feng was now full of confidence. He faced tens of thousands of expectant eyes in the audience with vigorous steps, and walked to the stage with his head held high -
"Dear fellow citizens and friends, today we hold a rally here to solemnly celebrate the great victory we have just won. In the past few days, more than 20,000 of our soldiers, together with the people of the city, have resisted the invasion of the invaders. We have fought with a small number of The victory over the many, the weak defeating the strong, created a miracle and broke the myth that the Luobei invaders were invincible. In this war, in order to defend our homeland, nearly 20,000 of our brave warriors sacrificed their precious lives. I propose that everyone present take off their hats and observe silence for them." Wu Feng took the lead in taking off his helmet and bowed his head in silence. Everyone present stood up, took off their hats and bowed their heads in silence -
After the silence, Wu Feng continued his speech, "Today I stand here and on behalf of all my soldiers, I swear to everyone here that I will do everything in my power to protect your life and property from infringement. I will go on. , I hope that everyone here will cherish the hard-won peace and happiness, use their own hands, redouble their efforts, and create a prosperous and powerful new home!" After listening to Wu Feng's oath and inspiring words, he took the stage. Thunderous applause immediately broke out. Many people could not even control their emotions and began to cheer, "We have won!" Out of the competition, spontaneous parades began on the streets -
The bonfire party in the evening was even more lively. Dozens of bonfires lit up blazing fires. Tens of thousands of people gathered around the fires and sang and danced excitedly to the accompaniment of various musical instruments. The celebration entered the carnival stage. Because Qingyang Mansion is located on the border, bordering many countries and regions, and coupled with hundreds of years of intermarriage among various races, the ethnic composition is very complex. Among the nearly 100,000 people, yellow race people only account for 40%. Caucasians and mixed races each account for 30%, so the social atmosphere is much more open than other parts of the empire -
Wu Feng also led his officers to participate in the bonfire party as invited, which Xiao Tang called a close military-civilian relationship. At the party, girls from all ethnic groups in various costumes were very generous and invited Wu Feng's officers at all levels to dance. Because the officers did not get approval from their superiors, they all looked at Wu Feng. A group of people, Wu Feng also generously approved that the subordinates could choose on their own. Suddenly, hundreds of officers were robbed, and some beautiful and bold ones even came to Wu Feng's group to invite them to dance and sit with Wu Feng. Many well-known people in Qingyang City also asked Xiao Tang and others about Wu Feng's personal situation -
Zhan Zhanbai, Wei Dongchen and other smart-minded businessmen have all decided that Wu Feng will be the new ruler of this fast land, and they have sent out invitations at the party, inviting Wu Feng to take time to participate in their own activities in the next few days. At the welcome banquet specially held by Feng, under Xiao Tang's signal, Wu Feng accepted all comers and agreed wholeheartedly. Just as Wu Feng was chatting and laughing with the celebrities from Qingyang Mansion present, a slender figure came to Wu Feng and said, "General Li, I want to invite you to dance. I wonder if you are willing to honor me?" —
Wu Feng raised his head and carefully looked at the elegant and pretty woman in front of him. Her dimples that could make anyone's heart flutter were inlaid with two charming dimples, a pair of deep pool-like eyes, and her proud figure was wrapped in a snow-white dress. Here, her flaxen hair tells everyone that she is of Caucasian descent. For a moment, Wu Feng thought of Guan Yingying, Hua Yumei and An Qier who were thousands of miles away. Wei Dongchen next to him saw that Wu Feng was a little distracted and asked quickly: "Which daughter is this? Why have you never seen this before?" Have you seen it?”—
"I'm sorry, this is the granddaughter of the old man. Why don't you show me my greetings?" A thin old man with white beard and hair stood up, "Oh, this is Mr. Lu's grandson Qianjin. No wonder, she looks like a fairy after several years. Usually, we don't recognize him." The old man was obviously very familiar with everyone here. Wei Dongchen quickly introduced Wu Feng: "This is Mr. Lu from Jinzhou Prefecture. The Lu family is our northwest region and even the entire eastern continent. A very famous herbal medicine family, their supply of medicinal materials accounts for one-fifth of the empire's needs. Mr. Li doesn't need to be introduced." Wu Feng also heard Gu Ji mention it when he introduced the important figures in the northwest counties. This person hurriedly came forward to greet him. After some greetings, the girl standing next to him still refused to leave. "Master Li, I heard that you are strategizing on the battlefield and can defeat thousands of people. You will not even be able to defeat this little girl like me." You don’t even dare to accept a small invitation, right?” Everyone on the side looked at the two of them with smiles, especially Wu Feng’s subordinates. Although his boss usually seemed amiable and approachable, the officers and soldiers who had come into contact with him They all felt that underneath his smiling baby face, he always had an endless sense of domineering, which made people feel awe. Only this ignorant little girl would speak to him in such a tone. If it were anyone else, I am afraid that even if he had the courage to do so -
Mr. Lu also felt that his granddaughter was too presumptuous, and quickly blamed: "Xianxian, how can you talk to Mr. Li like this? Mr. Li has so many things to do, how can he be as crazy as you kids?" "He is not two years older than me. Besides, aren’t his men good at dancing?” The girl was obviously spoiled by her grandfather, so she was not afraid of his reproach. Wu Feng was also attracted by this smart and beautiful girl, with a restless heart in his heart. Lu Xin was a little ready to move again, "Mr. Lu, there is no need to blame your granddaughter. Since it is rare that everyone is so happy today, I will dance with her to the fullest." Wu Feng accepted the invitation graciously and walked into the venue with the girl -
As the cheerful dance music played, Wu Feng and the girl stepped on the brisk drumbeats, intoxicated like other boys and girls. The girl's dance was very skillful and graceful, but Wu Feng had never officially danced this kind of folk dance with local characteristics. However, under the leadership of the girl and at Wu Feng's party, he also saw many people dancing, and soon Just got used to it. Smelling the virgin fragrance emanating from the girl's body, holding his arms around her slender waist, and playing the passionate drumbeats, Wu Feng couldn't help but feel a little moved -
Off the field, Zhan Zhaobai looked at Lu Yunshan, also known as Mr. Lu, who was stroking his beard and grinning from ear to ear with a smile, and said: "Old man Lu, your granddaughter is really good at getting there first. It seems like you are doing this right." The emotional investment is very successful, but I heard from Mr. Xiao that Mr. Li has quite a lot of confidantes in the imperial capital." Lu Yunshan replied calmly: "That is a matter for their children's generation. We old guys can't control that much." A fat businessman standing nearby also sighed: "It's a pity that the women in my family didn't give birth to a more beautiful girl." Wei Dongchen, who was watching the dance, turned around He smiled and said: "Fat Qiu, how can you give birth to a beautiful daughter without even looking at your own appearance? If you do give birth to a beautiful daughter, it must be your wife who has cuckolded you. But seriously, Mr. Li is right We have all accepted the invitations. There is still a chance to connect with each other. However, Mr. Li and Mr. Xiao next to him are not ordinary people. I estimate that they may have some demands when the time comes, and we must prepare ourselves. .”—
The party lasted until dawn, and Wu Feng also danced several dances with the girl named Lu Xianxian. Later, several other girls also invited Wu Feng to dance with them. Wu Feng did not want to be accused of being unfair to others, so he The girls' wishes were fulfilled one by one. Some of the happy people stayed up all night singing and dancing, while others went to bars and hotels to celebrate with drinks. According to the investigation, after October 18, all types of wine in Qingyang Fucheng were out of stock for several consecutive days. Many businessmen had to go to various places overnight to organize supply of goods to supply market needs -
Zhan Zhaobai and Wei Dongchen also followed the agreement and quickly initiated a joint petition from common people and merchants to request the imperial court to appoint Li Wufeng as the city guard of Qingyang Prefecture. They sent a number of common people's representatives to the imperial capital with joint letters to petition. At the same time, they also contacted people in the imperial capital who had close relations with them. Contact people and ask them for help
