Special Years

Chapter 1107: Major Nikolai's Toast

Returning to the row room from the training ground, Tang Wenkai was already waiting outside the door.

Seeing Zhuang Yan, he smiled and said, "How? We met? How do you feel?"

Zhuang Yan raised his right hand and said, "After a bit of a fight, it is indeed very sturdy. If it wasn't for the hard qigong I have been practicing for so many years, I am afraid that I would not be able to resist the guy just now. He is not a human being, but a bear!"

"You lost?" Tang Wenkai was a little surprised.

In his opinion, solemnity is rarely such a compliment.

If you boast, it proves to be eye-catching.

Zhuang Yan said, "No, it's a draw. We didn't lose or win."

The two were chatting when Lieutenant Sergey came over and told everyone to go to the dining hall to eat.

On this day, since all the teams from nine countries had arrived, the dinner in the evening was considered a welcome banquet.

Although it is held in the cafeteria in the military camp, the environment is no different from that of ordinary military camps, but the food is very rich.

There is still wine on the table...

There is vodka, and there is another one. Zhuang Yan can see from the Russian that it is a sweet wine. After smelling it, it has a grassy fragrance.

Of course, there are also freshly squeezed juices.

The heads of all parties took turns to speak, and the soldiers and young officers below had already moved their forefingers.

After all, I have been on a plane for more than ten hours, and I haven't eaten anything since I landed, so I'm already starving.

In fact, in the real team, except for Zhuang Yan and Tang Wenkai, who were relatively calm, many of the other non-commissioned officers were going abroad to participate in the competition for the first time. Everything was so fresh and interested.

Although Zhao Yanjun has gathered everyone since he landed and announced the discipline, everyone must pay high attention to it, and they must understand that they represent the whole and the country, and the image of the soldier must be good.

But sitting in the dining hall, the soldiers quickly discovered that, apart from their own two tables, the soldiers of other countries looked more relaxed.

Team E was sitting on the right side of the team, and solemnly saw that Nikolai had changed into a camouflage uniform, with the armband of their 45th Special Operations Regiment of the Airborne Corps hanging on his arm.

Seemingly noticing that Zhuang Yan saw himself, Nikolai smiled at Zhuang Yan, and then his eyes fell on the wine bottle on the table.

day!

Zhuang Yan immediately understood what this fellow was doing.

It is said that Da Maozi can't live without vodka, and alcohol is prohibited. It seems that they do not strictly prohibit drinking.

Soon, it was the turn of Major General Grobaev to speak and toast.

Balabala has a pass, nothing more than to enhance communication through competitions, and then give each other a common progress and so on.

The special forces of the following countries have long been a little lacking.

Zhuang Yan saw the black buddies wearing red berets at one of the tables, and one of the young men stared at the beef and mutton on the plate in front of him, but his mouth was biting so tightly that he was afraid that he would bleed when he opened it. All over the table.

Finally, Mr. Major General Grobaev finally raised his glass.

"Everyone, let's raise the glass of friendship!"

Major Fang Zheng of the translation team immediately signaled everyone to raise their glasses and stand up.

Everyone had to hold the vodka glasses in front of them - about 200-300ml each, and then stood up.

Everyone's eyes turned to Xu Weiguo. After all, Zhao Yanjun, the chief, was at the main table in front with Major General Grobayev and other senior officers from other countries. Xu Weiguo was the highest military rank and position here.

"Put it up, pour the wine, and do as the locals do."

Indeed, this is country E.

Where is country E?

That's the home of vodka.

What is vodka, for Chinese people, it translates as water of life!

In the country of the big Maozi, there is a saying - "Wine is the father's dish and the mother, and it is better to drink to death than to be shot"!

I am afraid that only fighting nations in the world are worthy of this sentence.

Armies around the world strictly control alcohol, but perhaps the strictest is now.

However, to say the most uncontrollable, I am afraid it is the E army.

In the history of the E national army, in the mid-1980s, the former Soviet President Gordon tried to prohibit alcohol throughout the country. As a result, during the prohibition period, "homemade vodka" recipes flourished, such as mixing glue or toothpaste with water, filtering and drinking and vodka. The same; or white bread dipped in perfume, or black brightener applied to bread; the most miraculous method, it is said, is to boil table legs with sugar and water to collect vapor, which tastes similar to vodka...

The following year, more than 11,000 ex-Soviet people died from drinking this "homemade vodka"...

The former Soviet army fought in the AFH for nine years, and only more than 12,200 people were declared dead.

In other words, in just one year, country E lost a population similar to that of fighting AFH for nine years...

Since then, Prohibition has once again come to an end.

"You're not allowed to drink too much, you can only lick it. You mean it, and you can act like it." Xu Weiguo was afraid that his soldiers would drink too much. After all, toasting is just a diplomatic courtesy, respecting the host, not really wanting the soldiers to drink into their stomachs. go inside.

Xu Er held the wine glass, sniffed and sniffed, and said, "It smells like Erguotou."

"Cheers to our friendship with each other!"

When Major General Grobaev finally spoke, the surrounding soldiers made various roars, said the word "Cheers" in different languages, and then drank them all.

Only the two tables of people on the solemn side, licked it gently, and then sat down.

However, Zhuang Yan soon discovered that some things could not be avoided.

Da Maozi is generally sturdy, but generally respects powerful people.

Earlier, Zhuang Yan and Major Nikolai competed, and the two were tied. Just as Zhuang Yan felt that he had met an opponent worthy of respect, Major Nikolai also felt that he was eyeing Zhuang Yan.

The people who saw it were just scratching the surface, so Major Nikolay would never let it go, and came over here with a bottle of wine.

bang——

He put a whole bottle of vodka directly on the table and looked solemnly.

"Zhuang, you are so impolite. In our country E, others must drink up their toasts. Just now our chief of staff toasted you, and you just licked it."

As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and gently knocked twice on the solemn cup, making a ding ding sound.

"That's rude."

Standing solemnly, slightly embarrassed, "Say, Nicky, we have a strict alcohol prohibition order, and drinking is not allowed."

"Prohibition?" Nikolai suddenly raised his head and laughed: "My dear Zhuang~lightnovelpub.net~ This is not your homeland, this is E country, and here we are the host. You come here, we You are very welcome, you see, we even prepared so many delicious food and wine, if you don't drink a little - we people in E have an old saying, only those who have drunk under the same roof are your friends."

The big hairy boy in front of him had already said that, so Zhuang Yan had no choice but to turn his attention to Xu Weiguo.

Fang Zheng next to Xu Weiguo had already translated Nikolai's words to him, and the meaning was very clear.

After thinking for a while, Xu Weiguo nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, I'll allow you to have a drink with our Major Nickley tonight."

At the end, he said again: "Solemnly, if possible, you should drink him to satisfy him."

Satisfaction?

solemnly smiled.
