Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2260: Kill the Strong Ones
Hongxing Machinery Factory.

It was already midnight when Yang Xiaotao came back.

After waving goodbye to Li Mingyu, Huo Sheng and others, Yang Xiaotao walked towards the factory.

I won’t go back to trouble my family at this point.

What's more, Ran Qiuye is pregnant and needs to get enough sleep.

As soon as I went upstairs, I saw that the lights in the command center were still on.

Yang Xiaotao asked Wang Hao to deliver the luggage to the office, while he knocked on the door of the command center.

"Boss Peng, you haven't slept yet."

When Yang Xiaotao walked in, he saw Mr. Peng sitting at the table, wearing a big coat and holding an enamel pot in his hand.

"He's back."

There was fatigue in his words.

"Landed tonight, just arrived."

After saying that, Yang Xiaotao sat opposite him. It was obvious that Mr. Peng didn't rest so late, which was not his routine.

Obviously, the other party was waiting for him.

"Drink some, it will warm you up."

President Peng pushed the enamel cup in his hand forward to Yang Xiaotao. Yang Xiaotao took the cup and was about to drink, but as soon as he opened it, he smelled alcohol.

"Boss Peng, you, you don't drink, right?"

Yang Xiaotao didn't rush to drink, but President Peng shook his head and said, "I don't drink, but that doesn't mean I won't stop drinking."

"That's true."

Yang Xiaotao smiled, then picked up the jar and took a sip.

The wine felt hot when it went down my throat, but soon my body felt warm.

"Commander, do you have anything to say?"

Putting the jar down, Yang Xiaotao held it in his hands and asked.

President Peng nodded and said, "Xiao Tao, do you think we can take it down?"

Mr. Peng patted his chest, looking worried and apprehensive. "If this was on the ground, I would be relieved."

"But it's up in the sky. To be honest, even though we have Baiju, it's still a bit difficult to take it down."

Mr. Peng shook his head and spoke with some lack of confidence.

Despise the enemy tactically and take him seriously strategically.

He could make his attitude clear in front of others, and he was determined to shoot down the little black bird.

But when it comes to really going to the battlefield and fighting with real guns and swords, he really feels unsure.

He had thought about this, and I believe many people had thought about it.

But no one dared to say it out loud because everyone thought it was unreliable.

Even the people above who held a meeting to discuss the issue felt that the main task at the moment was to block the other party from entering and prevent them from finding out the news.

As for what he often said, shooting down the little black bird, he knew it was just to boost morale.

Seeing what Mr. Peng said, Yang Xiaotao also understood what he meant, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Peng, as our ancestors said, man proposes, God disposes!"

"So I think we, everyone, should do our own thing well."

"That's it."

Yang Xiaotao took another sip and said, "Besides, I believe that God still has eyes above our sky."

"Of course, if it doesn't have eyes, don't even think about accepting our tribute in the future."

After saying this, Mr. Peng laughed.

"That's not your style."

"My style? What is my style?"

Yang Xiaotao asked in surprise, does he have any other style?

President Peng nodded seriously, "The comrades in the machinery factory have long said that your style is to do what you say and never make empty promises."

"Praying to the gods is not your style."

"Really? Why didn't I know that?"

Yang Xiaotao scratched his head, but what he said was true.

I have my own system, and I am sure of everything I want to do in advance. How can I make a fool of myself?
"Okay, go back and rest."

After saying this, Mr. Peng stood up and was about to go back to rest.

Yang Xiaotao finished drinking the wine in the jar and followed him out. "Boss Peng, I heard you gave this operation a name?"

Mr. Peng stopped walking, then smiled and said without turning his head, "Yes, it's called Christmas turkey."

"By the way, have you ever eaten turkey?"

Mr. Peng turned around and asked curiously.

Yang Xiaotao immediately shook his head. Not to mention that he had never eaten it in this life, he had never eaten it in his previous life.

"No, I just heard about this thing. It seems to be bigger than the chickens we raise here. One is enough for the whole family."

"Boss Peng, have you eaten it?"

President Peng also shook his head, "No, I have no interest in that stuff."

"But I heard that they would eat this during Christmas, just like we eat dumplings during Chinese New Year."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "So you gave them this name so that they can't eat turkey properly during the holidays?"

"Isn't it that if I can't eat it, no one else can either?"

"It sounds a bit self-defeating!"

Yang Xiaotao joked with a smile, and President Peng didn't care. He just sighed and said, "You're right, that's what I was thinking."

"For us, covered in blood and mud, it's good enough to eat steamed bread, how dare we dream of eating turkey!"

"Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes!"

Mr. Peng said nonchalantly, but he slowed down his pace and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you asking this? Do you want to try this turkey?"

Yang Xiaotao nodded seriously, "Boss Peng, if you eat too much of this steamed bread, your body will lack nutrition!"

"I heard that the meat of this turkey is very tender and very nutritious."

"If we eat one, we'll be strong and healthy, and maybe we can run faster."

President Peng understood what Yang Xiaotao meant. This black bird is so excellent, it must have a lot of stuff in its stomach.

After hearing what Yang Xiaotao said, he said, "This turkey is a specialty of theirs. It's not easy for us to catch it."

Yang Xiaotao didn't care. "Boss Peng, this turkey has flown into the yard, which means it's destined to be with us!"

"Since we have been destined to meet each other for thousands of miles, I think we should also act like the host."

At this point, Yang Xiaotao suddenly came close to Mr. Peng and lowered his voice, "Mr. Peng, I think that if this black bird can fly over here, our white horse can also fly over there."

"You're right!"

Ok?
After listening to this, Mr. Peng raised his head and stared at Yang Xiaotao, a look of surprise flashing across his face.

"You kid! How dare you think of this?"

Yang Xiaotao spread his hands, "It's not against the law to think about it!" "Besides, this turkey is very fat, don't you want to try it?"

Yang Xiaotao encouraged from the side, but he was very determined in his heart.

You allow the other party to visit you again and again. Do you really think you have no temper?

I couldn't do anything to you before, I could only grit my teeth and swallow my blood, and I had to be humble.

But I have everything now. If I really get angry, I will put on mushroom eggs and fly over your heads!
Who is afraid of whom?

What's more, we are barefoot, so at worst we can start over.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao say this, Mr. Peng was a little moved for a moment.

But as soon as this sign emerged, it was overwhelmed by a series of consequences and worries.

"Boss Peng!"

"Anyway, I really want to eat it. You are experienced, so I'm sure you can find a way."

Seeing that Mr. Peng didn't say anything, Yang Xiaotao spoke again.

Mr. Peng rolled his eyes and said, "You are just doing it, not catching it."

"Haha, everyone has their own specialty. I am a worker, a revolutionary worker."

"You are really good at talking, kid! Go to sleep quickly."

"Okay. You should go to bed early too!"

Yang Xiaotao stretched his body and walked into the office.

Wang Hao had already made the camp bed and was now back at the security office to rest.

Yang Xiaotao took off his cotton jacket and lay directly on the bed.

Xiaowei flew out and without saying much, she helped Yang Xiaotao relieve his fatigue.

In the next room, Mr. Peng also lay down, just thinking about what Yang Xiaotao had just said in his mind.

To put it in a more domineering way, if the enemy can go anywhere, I can go there too!

To put it more simply, just let the plane circle over the opponent's head!
No one should suffer.

But the final result...

It was a mess and I couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

He should be responsible for every order he gives.

The current situation in the country has improved compared to before, but it is still full of crises.

The fighting in the south was fierce, the little black bird in the east kept invading the border, and the alliance in the north was sometimes good and sometimes bad.

That is to say, in the west, a group of member states are wavering, but this is all under the premise of strong strength. Once the country weakens, these fence-sitters will become the vanguard.

It can be said that there are a bunch of evil spirits all around.

That battle back then led to the stable development over the years.

The mushroom cloud in the northwest made them straighten their backs.

However, if you want to develop steadily, you must stay strong and continue to be strong.

Can…

Mr. Peng put his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling above his head, in a daze.

It is so difficult to stay strong all the time.

The people in the country are tightening their belts to make ends meet in order to develop industry and build up national defense.

Now that things have just started to pick up and we have achieved some results, if we fall into a quagmire, all the achievements of these years will be destroyed.

Caught in a dilemma both internally and externally, these people have to work extremely hard but also be extremely cautious.

I’m afraid that the rudder of the ship will go astray!

Ugh!
Sighs continued to be heard.

That night, Mr. Peng thought a lot.

Things in the past, things in the future, and things in the present.

It was not until the sky outside began to brighten and the light came in through the window that Mr. Peng felt a little sleepy.

When he was about to close his eyes, he suddenly saw the sunlight shining through the banners hanging on the office wall.

Serve the people.

A sentence they often said when they crossed the river with swords in hand came to my mind.

Hit a punch, lest a hundred punches come!

Killing the chicken to scare the monkey will serve as a warning to the whole society.

Kill the monkey to scare the chickens, and the chickens will serve as a warning to the whole world!
Thinking of this, Mr. Peng lost his sleepiness and slapped his face in self-mockery, "The older I get, the more afraid I am of death!"

After saying that, a murderous look flashed in his eyes!
"If you want to kill him, then pick the strongest one!"

Get up, put on your hat and go out.

He is going to report the situation to his superiors.

He wants to tell everyone that even though he is old, his ambition remains unchanged.

the next day.

Yang Xiaotao got up, tidied himself up a bit, then went to the cafeteria with his lunch box.

When I passed by Mr. Peng's room, I found that the door was closed. Could it be that he hadn't gotten up yet?

Yang Xiaotao didn't bother them, but walked straight to the workshop.

As we walked along, the workers we met on the road were surprised, and then immediately became excited.

Because Yang Xiaotao is back.

Arriving at the cafeteria, Yang Xiaotao lined up at the window to get food. Meng Yanli, who was in charge of serving food, was delighted to see Yang Xiaotao, "Brother Xiaotao, when did you come back?"

"Sister Meng, I just came back last night."

"You didn't go home last night."

"No, I'll go back after I finish dealing with things."

"By the way, I heard your wife is pregnant again? That's great, more children means more blessings, you should have more children, so that your family will be more lively."

Sister Meng was smiling, but Yang Xiaotao smiled bitterly, "This child is good in most ways, but he is too noisy and doesn't listen to discipline."

"Hey, is this kid still a kid if he doesn't make a fuss?"

"Look at them." He looked at the workers serving food, "You ask them to make a fuss now, but they won't do it."

"That's not the same thing."

"It's all the same. Just train them as workers. These days, what could be better than being a worker?"

"right."

Yang Xiaotao nodded without comment. While he was talking, the rice porridge was served and he was also given an egg and a piece of bread.

After getting the meal, find a place to eat.

As soon as he sat down, Wang Guodong sat next to him with a lunch box.

"When did you come back?"
