Catastrophe
Chapter 1244: catastrophe
After Lu Meng and Lu Tianhe finished talking, they accompanied him to the banquet hall downstairs.
The size of the Lu Tianhe family is not small. Even if all the people in charge of the following families came to the banquet that day, there were more than 100 people.
The hall was lively and lively, and everyone was communicating, some were talking about business cooperation, and some people were sharing some information.
In the hall, apart from Lu Tianhe, Lu Tao in military uniform should be the most eye-catching sight.
At this time, there were at least 20 people around Lu Tao on the side of the hall. Most of these people were the heads of the collateral families who came to show their loyalty. There were also some young people who regarded him as an idol and wanted to follow him. Communication, and the eyes of many girls in the hall are also firmly locked on him.
No way, Lu Tao is really hot right now.
More than half a year ago, the most dazzling person in the military world was definitely the famous flying general Lu Feibai. In the entire Lu clan, almost no one knew his name.
Under the momentum of the Lu Heng family, Lu Feibai felt like a national hero.
But the one who decided the final direction of the Qiongling Battle was not the long-awaited Lu Feibai, but Lu Tao, who was born out of nowhere.
At the time of the Qiongling Battle, all the news that the people could get was reported by the media. In the Lu family, where information was strictly blocked from the outside world, the media was the only channel for the people to get access to the unified message. Naturally, what the official media said was what they said. How to believe.
But with the end of the war, all the soldiers retreated to the rear, and various unknown news began to be revealed.
Although Lu Feibai has not suffered a few defeats, he is from an academy, with solid military theory and little practical experience. He looks like Zhao Kuo, who is a soldier on paper. Although he has won several battles under his command, he has also paid for it. A large number of unnecessary casualties, the reputation among the grass-roots officers and soldiers is not very good.
As a result, after these officers and soldiers were withdrawn, Lu Feibai's reputation plummeted, and the flying general's gold content became lower and lower. Coupled with some news spread by the Lu Tianhe family and secret operations, Lu Tao was quickly shaped into a newcomer. "Army God".
This is how the family checks and balances. People who don't know the truth are like a group of headless flies. They are led by public opinion and have lost their basic judgment. However, Lu Feibai has been blown up for several years, so Lu Tao, the **** of war, has been blown away for several years. After this new hot spot came out, it really overtook him at a very fast speed.
To be honest, Lu Tao's reputation is still a bit worse than Lu Feibai's, but he is also the only person in the entire Lu clan who can be compared with Lu Feibai, which has far exceeded Lu Tianhe's expectations.
The family's meal was in the form of a buffet. It was not yet time to start the meal, but the hall was already full of drinks.
From a distance, Lu Meng saw Lu Tao standing in the crowd, radiantly shining, reaching for a glass of champagne, standing in the corner, watching from a distance.
Lu Tao chatted a few words with people from various families over there, found Lu Meng's figure, said hello to the others, then left the crowd and ran over to Lu Meng: "Fourth, when did you come back? ?"
"Second brother, congratulations!" Lu Meng looked at the shining general star on Lu Tao's shoulder, and said with a smile, "You're really a rocket-like promotion. The last time I saw you, you were still a brigadier general. Thinking that in such a short period of time, he has been promoted to major general."
"After the war, the chaebols have always had this rule when it comes to meritorious deeds." Lu Tao smiled: "I heard that you will also come back for the military report this time, but I didn't expect you to come back home. Come on, how is it, is everything going well at the frontier?"
Lu Meng smiled: "The army I am in is a motley army. Now that the border is stable, I have nothing to do all day long, just mess around."
"Haha, what you said sounds a little sour to me." Lu Tao stretched out his hand and patted Lu Meng's arm: "Other people don't know about you, but I do know that my brother is definitely not a wine bag, even if he is in the mercenary unit. , you must be conscientious, although I have not seen the troops you lead, but I believe that compared with other mercenary troops, the spirit of this unit is definitely different."
"Mercenaries are mercenaries after all. No matter how good their military discipline is, they can't change anything. The story of an ugly duckling turning into a white swan does not exist in reality."
Lu Meng drank the champagne and said, "Second brother, I haven't been in contact with you recently. When you guys were withdrawing from Qiongling, I stopped your troops and asked them about you, but Those people said that you had already withdrawn, are you still the commander of the independent column?"
"Yes, but it won't be so soon." Lu Tao also picked up a glass of wine to moisten his throat: "Tomorrow's military debriefing, there will be work transfers, my father has already paved the way for me, I will Nominating the deputy commander-in-chief of the Northern Military Region, at present, my father has almost completed all aspects of his activities, so there should be no mistakes in this matter."
"Deputy commander of the military region!" After listening to Lu Tao's words, Lu Meng flashed an unconcealed envy in his eyes: "At this age, you can be the deputy commander of the military region, second brother, you should be the youngest of the Lu family. senior general, right?"
Lu Tao shook the glass and said, "Nominate the deputy commander of the Northern Military Region with me~lightnovelpub.net~ and Lv Feibai."
Lu Meng frowned: "He wants to fight with you?"
"No, according to the results of the operation, Lu Feibai and I should both become the deputy commanders of the Northern Military Region. Although we are not old enough and have insufficient qualifications, our current reputation is too great. If we do not arrange to a corresponding height Public opinion will be very large in the post.”
Lu Tao shook his head lightly: "The members of the Veterans Association know about the disputes between our family and the Lu Heng family, so naturally they dare not separate me and Lu Feibai, and let us go to different military regions to take power, otherwise, if we lose control, it will affect the stability of the Lu family. .
Of Lu's five military regions, the northern military region is the closest to the hinterland and is relatively peaceful. The meaning of the old foxes above is very clear, that is, to let Lu Feibai and Lu Feibai fight each other in the northern military region, and decide the winner by raising gu. Minimal cost to reduce the damage caused by the battle between our two families.
Xiao Si, in fact, I never understood my father before, but the higher I go, the more I can understand his thoughts. Now I have to go up and compete with Lu Feibai. If this time I fail to be on the Qiongling battlefield Instead, let Lu Feibai take over the military exploits alone and become the deputy commander of the Northern Military Region alone. If no one in our family can compete with him, it will bring disaster! "
