"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 846
The capital of Jiangbei Province.
As night fell, every household in the provincial capital was lit with candlelight, and the lanterns on the streets at the top of the city were also lit up, reflecting the city's transparency.
The inns and restaurants are colorful under the light, and there is a sense of festiveness. The sound of silk and bamboo surrounds the beams. Merchants and travelers come and go, and the streets are full of pedestrians. The city is lively and noisy.
In the past, a curfew would be enforced in the city after dark. Except for the patrolling soldiers, no one was allowed to go out without authorization, and the city would become extraordinarily quiet.
However, after the Qinghe Army occupied Jiangbei Province, this curfew system was abolished in many prefectures and counties.
In addition, the Qinghe army encouraged commerce, so after nightfall, instead of quieting down, the city became very lively.
After all, the common people want to take the opportunity to relax after working all day, and those businessmen and travelers also invite their friends to sit together and have a few drinks.
The small vendors gathered near the inn and wine shop and shouted loudly, trying to make a little more money.
Especially now that the rebel army alliance meeting is about to be held, countless rebel army leaders and guards are pouring in here, making this place overcrowded and at the same time making it very lively.
The provincial capital is a strategic location. The Qinghe Army has two security banner camps here, and 10,000 soldiers are stationed here.
As the meeting of the Uprising Army was about to be held, Chen Ziang, the commander of the Qinghe Army, also arrived here.
Following Chen Ziang to arrive here was an elite personal guard battalion and a cavalry flag battalion drawn from the Guards Banner Regiment, which greatly enhanced the defense of the provincial capital.
There are also more or less contradictions among the various departments of the rebel army. When they meet on the street, some friction will inevitably occur.
However, the Qinghe Army has a large number of patrols, and once they find someone fighting in the street, they will deal with it mercilessly.
After the patrol team of the Qinghe Army dealt with some soldiers of the guards of the rebel army, they all became honest one after another. Seeing the patrol team of the Qinghe Army was like seeing a cat, and they did not dare to be presumptuous anymore.
Therefore, on the eve of the rebel alliance, although the entire Jiangbei Province was very lively, nothing major happened.
Although Chen Ziang was young, he was already the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army. He held a heavy army. On the eve of the alliance, he also took the initiative to set up a banquet for the leaders of the rebel army who came from afar.
The banquet is held in the Yunxi Restaurant in the east of the provincial capital city, which is the most luxurious restaurant in the provincial capital city.
Wu Zhenrui opened Yunxi Restaurant when he was in business, and it was only opened in Yunxi Mansion at first.
Later, after being instructed by Chen Ziang, he directly opened a chain model, not only in the Jiangbei province, but even in the Jiangnan province.
?Because the decoration of Yunxi Restaurant is high-end, and the dishes are also delicious, it seems to be the first choice for banquets.
This time, Chen Ziang was going to have a banquet for the leaders of the rebel army at the Yunxi Restaurant in the provincial capital, which was also an advertisement for Wu Zhenrui, so Wu Zhenrui took it very seriously.
"Today is the banquet for the commander-in-chief to host the leader of the rebel army. We must present the best things, and we must not embarrass the commander-in-chief!"
Wu Zhenrui knew that this was a matter of Chen Ziang's face, so he repeatedly emphasized the importance to everyone.
"Masters who are in charge of the spoon, this is a good opportunity to show off. You also have to show your unique skills. If the dishes you make are appreciated by the commander, I will give you a big reward!"
"Master, don't worry, we will definitely make the best dishes, and we won't ruin our brand." A chef in charge of the spoon replied with a smile.
After explaining to the crowd, Wu Zhenrui took a few doormen and stood at the door of the restaurant in person to welcome the leaders of the rebel army who attended the banquet.
After all, tomorrow is the rebel alliance meeting, and these leaders will also be the people who hold the most power in the rebel alliance.
Once the rebel army seized the world in the future, these people would all be feudal officials, and Wu Zhenrui naturally did not dare to neglect.
The leaders of the rebel army all came from afar, and Chen Ziang hosted a banquet to welcome them, so they naturally gave face.
Chen Ziang now holds hundreds of thousands of soldiers and occupies several provinces, which is not something they can afford.
Although they knew that Chen Ru was about to be the supreme commander of the rebel army, they also knew very well in their hearts that Chen Ziang was the real person behind the scenes.
So these leaders of the rebel army also want to take advantage of the opportunity of the banquet to have a good peace withZiang woos and woos relationships.
The leaders of the rebel army arrived at Yunxi Restaurant one after another. The stronger leaders had private seats upstairs, while the less powerful leaders of the rebel army sat in the lobby. The three-story Yunxi Restaurant was soon full. up.
The old man Chen Ru has dealt with these leaders a lot these days, so he also arrived early.
"I met Chen Shuai."
"Chen Shuai is well."
The leaders knew that Chen Ru was about to become the supreme commander, so they were very enthusiastic about him, and they all gave way to him.
Chen Ru, an old man who had lost power in the Qinghe Army, was pushed to the position of commander in chief of the rebel army by Chen Ziang, and he also regained vigor and vitality, and his face was full of red light.
"The commander of the Qinghe Army has arrived!"
When Chen Ru and the leaders were exchanging warm greetings in the restaurant, there was a loud shout from the duty officer outside.
Everyone also stopped talking one after another, and turned their gazes to the entrance of the restaurant.
I saw a heroic and extraordinary young man striding forward surrounded by the crowd. His sharp eyes and sonorous steps made the leaders all look sideways.
"Is he the Marshal Chen Ziang?"
"So young."
"This Marshal Chen Ziang is really heroic."
Seeing how young Chen Ziang was, the leaders of the rebel army were all talking and feeling deeply moved.
Several of the leaders of the female rebel army stared at Chen Ziang while they were stunned, and they were reluctant to leave for a long time.
"I kept you waiting for a long time, please make atonement."
When Chen Ziang saw the leaders standing in the restaurant, he also greeted with a smile and folded his hands, looking amiable.
"Where is Chen Shuai talking, we are bothering you."
"Chen Shuai, please sit upstairs."
When the leaders of the rebel army saw Chen Ziang, they felt like they were in the spring breeze, and they also greeted Chen Ziang enthusiastically.
As the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army, Chen Ziang quickly went up to the third floor and sat with everyone who was about to become the commander-in-chief.
"Zi Ang, this is General Wei Qing of Beichuan Province."
"This is the leader Niu Yao of the Hedong Province."
Chen Ru, the old man, also took Chen Ziang to meet these rebel generals who held heavy soldiers one by one.
"I will ask Marshal Chen to take care of you in the future."
"We will be a family from now on. I, Chen Ziang, eat meat, and I will never let my brothers drink soup."
"Hahaha."
Chen Ziang was born in the army, and after seeing the leaders of the rebel army and sitting down, they quickly became closer to each other.
When Chen Ziang was chatting with everyone, exquisite dishes were also served up one after another, and the refreshing aroma whetted the appetite.
"Everyone came from afar, but I didn't show my kindness as a landlord. Please forgive me. This glass of wine is my apology to you, Chen Zi'ang!"
After the wine and dishes were served, the handsome Chen Ziang also stood up and offered a toast actively. After speaking, he raised his head and drank a glass of spirits.
"good!"
"Shuai Chen is bold!"
Seeing Chen Zi'ang drank a glass of this Yunxi strong wine in one gulp, the leaders all clamored and applauded.
They are originally from reckless people, and they are not used to those poor scholars, but they respect the heroic men who can fight and drink.
Now seeing that Chen Ziang not only fought against Li Hong, but also drank quite boldly, they immediately became more fond of Chen Ziang. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
