The weapon of the country

The story of love (cheat) and love (cannon) between the opposing camps, the next year, Zhuang Ye x Shen Han, Little Swan Gong and his guiding light.

The back is overhead, the general environment is the Federation and the Empire, and the military system has brigadier generals but no colonels.

----------

Zhuang Ye met Shen Han at a military banquet.

Banquets are indispensable at night in Xindu, and its alias is "The Capital of Banquets".

Twilight floats on the Biyin River. The color of the river is between light green and light blue. The graceful Biyin River divides the capital into two halves.In an official residence in the upper city, the perfume and the indoor wine blended into a faint fragrance.The gold-plated rims of the utensils shone with golden light, the badges on the shoulders and chests of the male guests shone with silver, and the necks and wrists of the female guests shone with pearls on their fingers.

"During this busy schedule, it is a great honor to have so many guests attend my banquet..." the host held a wine glass and said grandiose formulas.

A young man in military uniform came from a secluded place, his figure was slightly slender, his pace was fast but light, and he stood under a tall laurel tree.At this moment, the moon had already risen, and the sky was getting darker. The light of the darkening sky showed that he had a fair complexion and bright eyes. He looked less than 25, or even less than 23, but his military rank was a colonel.

There was a little commotion among the sharp-eyed guests.

The crowd surrounded him, "I haven't seen Mr. Zhuang for a few years, when did you return to Xindu?" "You are a colonel at such a young age, what a bright future..."

The person who spoke came as soon as he opened his mouth, but the young colonel became more and more unable to stand up as he listened. He remained polite, "Please, just call me Zhuang Ye."

These people are not flattering him, but his father.

This kind of banquet is a good time to establish contacts and seek support. As far as he knows, the position of captain of the military base closest to the new capital will soon be vacant, and the host of the banquet, Major General Lei, also wants to work hard for this position.

Major General Lei belonged to his father's faction, and he had to come here to express his support on behalf of his powerful father, even if he was full of compliments that made him feel uncomfortable.

"Thank you... Yes, father is very good, I will convey your kindness... Thank you very much for your greeting..." He looked around while dealing with it, but he was only attracted by the back of one person, to be precise.

He himself stood under the light, and the man stood under the light.

Zhuang Ye has seen many people in military uniforms, and he himself is a person in military uniforms.Leather boots, black trousers, black coat, white shirt, silver collar epaulettes and cap badge.

Generally, the beauty of wearing a military uniform lies in the fact that the person wearing the military uniform tightens himself, like a sharp knife out of its scabbard, a gun about to shoot, and smells of gunpowder smoke. I have never seen anyone who can wear a military uniform so beautifully.

Major General Lei was half a head lower than him, which made him look taller and straighter. He was made of woolen material that fit him, but he was in a relaxed state.

A body full of power is relaxing, and there is power in this relaxation. This feeling is both familiar and strange. Zhuang Ye stared at him for a moment, stunned.

As if aware of the sight behind him, that person turned his head.He was seven or eight years older than Zhuang Ye, and his face was extremely masculine and handsome.Zhuang Ye blushed, like a kid who was caught peeping behind an adult, at a loss what to do, but he smiled at him and turned back to continue talking with the guests in secret.

Zhuang Ye quickly lowered his head, like sipping the crystal clear red wine in his glass.His face must still be red, and he almost choked on the drink, and took another deep sip to suppress the itch in his throat.

The man turned around just now, and the epaulets flashed like shooting stars, drawing light.

Zhuang Ye's own epaulettes are three silver pine needles, representing the colonel, and this person's epaulettes are a star.Unlike the major general's shiny silver star, the star on his shoulder patch is silver and black, representing the rank of brigadier general.

Brigadier General is the most embarrassing military rank. He has already left the school officer, but he has not entered the ranks of generals.It seems that you can change the color of the stars on your shoulders by holding your breath, but most people hold it for more than ten or twenty years, whether they can climb or not.

A group of guests surrounded Zhuang Ye, and he saw the brigadier general chatting with a major general from afar.

He first asked knowingly, "Is that Major General Lei?"

Someone immediately answered, "That's right, does Young Master Zhuang want to talk to him?"

Zhuang Ye quickly refused, and then asked casually, "Then who is he chatting with?"

"Isn't it Shen Han?" The onlookers sneered, "Brigadier general has only been in the position for three years, and he wants to be promoted. He has been involved in any banquet recently! Don't even think about it, he is not on the same side as us, what's the use of expanding contacts here use."

"Shen Han", Zhuang Ye said the name silently twice. For some reason, he had a premonition that this matter was not that simple.

In less than half a month, except for Zhuang Ye, all the military personnel who participated in the banquet received reprimands of varying severity.

The banquet was somehow infiltrated by reporters, not only infiltrated, but also took photos and exposed it to the public.

The Commonwealth has not been at war for nearly five years, but is still in a state of war.In the state of combat readiness, in order to win over the relationship with the guests, the military personnel accompanied the banquet with straightforward and mean news, and attached a form detailing the banquet expenses held by Major General Lei at public expense during his previous post.

This news was like a resounding slap, which made the military staff in charge of public relations dizzy and worked overtime for several days, hating Major General Lei to death.In order to restore its reputation, the military department must also make a statement, publicly stating that it will not consider Rear Admiral Lei for the vacancy of the captain of the fleet.Major General Lei's dream job just fell through.

Zhuang Ye only attended briefly and was not mentioned in the report. He escaped, but Shen Han was unfortunately implicated.

Zhuang Ye had only met him once, and never said a word.Seeing the photo on the news, I was worried for him.

Two months later, at the Federal Independence Day celebration at the end of November, Zhuang Ye saw Shen Han again.

Federal Independence Day, also known as "Freedom Day", is the day when the Federation refuses to continue to be a colony of the Empire and becomes independent from the Empire.

This day has become a proud day for the federal soldiers. The military holds a grand celebration. No matter how fierce the struggle between different factions is, they will hold hands and drink together on this day.

People in military uniforms came and went in the Federal Army auditorium in the capital, like waves washing over a hall that can hold ten thousand people.The crowd is like a wave, and the carnival atmosphere is even more like a wave, one wave overwhelms the other.

In this crowd, Zhuang Ye smiled at the person who touched his shoulder at least twenty times, that kind of skilled embarrassed smile.His youthful appearance is a disadvantage, but the disadvantage can also be used as an advantage. When rejecting people, he can always make people unbearable.

Many glasses full of bright red wine were handed to him, and the crystal clear wine swirled in the same crystal glass.He did not accept such enthusiasm and kindness, but kept searching among the crowd.He wanted to see that Brigadier General Shen.

I want to say something to him, and what can I say to him, Zhuang Ye thought, but I just want to see him for no reason.
