    Xiong Sanwa is finally getting married, and Zhang Xian and his wife are organizing the wedding for him.

    Because Xiong Sanwa is alone in Taipei, and Zhai Minruo is getting married for the second time, they both want to make ends meet and don't want to make it big, and they also want to save some expenses.  However, the two of them have no relatives, but many friends and comrades-in-arms.  Zhang Xian and Xiong Sanwa did a rough calculation, and they found that a banquet for ten people would have to be arranged at more than thirty tables. The number of comrades in the guard camp alone was more than two hundred. After all the calculations,  Zhang Xian and Xiong Sanwa finally decided to keep the wedding a little more streamlined. They stopped inviting many people with whom they had ordinary relationships, and only invited friends with whom they had particularly close relationships.

    Although Zhang Xian and Xiong Sanwa tried their best to reduce the number of people invited to the minimum, there were still seventy or eighty in total. Adding in Zhai Minruo's friends, the two parties added up to exactly ten tables.  In order to save some money, Zhang Xian found the canteen of his unit, used the canteen's space, borrowed a few tables, and asked the canteen's master chef to help cook. Tian Xiuxiu personally purchased these dishes and gave them to him in private.  These master chefs pay some rent, and these chefs are also happy to get some extra money.

    Most of the anti-communist martyrs studying in the Heart War Brigade have left, so the canteen at this time seems empty and not too crowded.

    The venue for the wedding ceremony was also set up in the canteen. Wang Peng, Chen Daxing and other close comrades in arms set up the wedding venue. They cut out ribbons from red paper and bought some red balloons and red ribbons.  Paper lanterns, it didn¡¯t take long to decorate the big canteen with joy.

    In fact, in the national army at this time, the salary of soldiers was not high. A private's monthly salary could only buy three packs of cigarettes, while a warrant officer's monthly salary could buy two packs of cigarettes.  Because of this, Zhang Xian took this into consideration when he started organizing the wedding, so he and Xiong Sanwa both agreed with everyone in advance that they would not charge any money from everyone, as long as everyone can help when the time comes,  Just show your support on the spot.  Although they said this, Chen Daxing and Wang Peng still felt a little embarrassed. They pooled their money to buy a glass vase and gave it to Xiong Sanwa, which moved Xiong Sanwa deeply.

    Compared with Chen Daxing and Wang Peng, Xiong Sanwa was still a major at this time, and his monthly salary was much higher. It turned out that he didn't have much expenses when he was alone, so he did save some money; in the beginning  At that time, he wanted to treat himself to a big hotel in the city, but after going around those restaurants, he realized that his savings were not enough at all.  After the wedding was held in the workplace canteen, all the expenses were borne by Zhang Xian alone. Xiong Sanwa knew that holding the wedding in the canteen would save a lot of money than holding it in an outside restaurant, but the cost was still considerable.  , he wanted to give the money to Zhang Xian, but Zhang Xian refused and told him very seriously: "You don't have much money. I know you have saved it for a long time! Haha, you should keep the money.  After you two get married, you will have to spend money on a lot of places in the future! You have to rent a house, live in life, and take care of Minruo's child. You will also have children in the future, and you will need money everywhere!"

    "But, this is my wedding? How can I ask you to advance money to me?" Xiong Sanwa was a little stubborn.

    Zhang Xian shook his head with a smile and said to him: "I have always regarded you as my younger brother. If you regard me as your eldest brother, then don't be so open-minded! Although you are married, I think  The two of us are still good brothers, why are there so many things between brothers?"

    Xiong Sanwa knew that Zhang Xian would not accept his money, so it seemed a bit boring to refuse like this anymore. In the end, she had no choice but to follow Zhang Xian's idea and keep this gratitude deeply in her heart.

    The wedding day was indeed very lively. In addition to Chen Daxing and Wang Peng and other comrades from the original guard camp, the guests were also people from the 18th Army such as Bai Jingsheng, Sha Changhai, Yao Yu and Qiao Shuqiang.  After hearing the news of Xiong Sanwa's marriage, they asked for leave in advance to join in the fun, which moved Xiong Sanwa deeply.  In fact, there were several lieutenant colonel and colonel-level senior officials attending the wedding, but Xiong Sanwa knew that these people were actually here to support Zhang Xian's face.  Zhang Xian also sent an invitation to Han Qi. Xiong Sanwa is able to have the status he has today, after all, thanks to Han Qi for taking him out of the prisoner of war camp. However, Han Qi is indeed too busy with work. At this time,  He went outside the island again and didn't have time to come over. However, he still had someone send him a gift.

    After the firecrackers went off, Zhang Xian personally acted as the officiant of Xiong Sanwa and Zhai Minruo's marriage. Naturally, his second brother Zhang Ren had to be credited as the matchmaker.  Zhang Ren also brought a group of friends from the flying brigade to help.  When everyone arrived, the originally empty canteen suddenly became full of people.We will definitely remember that whether we saw it through the telescope or in the face-to-face confrontation with Lei Lei at the Mantis River, we saw that there were two commanders beside him, one was Wang Dahu, and the other was their political commissar.  It should be a man named Gan Xingguo!  "

    "Gan Xingguo?" Zhang Xian recited the name silently, but he had no impression of the name at all. It was a strange name.

    As if seeing Zhang Xian's doubts, Chen Daxing said: "Brother Xian, let me tell you the truth. The reason why I have such a deep impression on this person is because one night during the Battle of Nanma, I  After being ordered to carry out sneak attacks on the periphery and instigate the liberation fighters to rebel, he once captured their political commissar and had a face-to-face confrontation with him. If Wei Lengzi hadn't been stupid at the last moment, he might have been there at that time.  I beat him to death! Later, when I was staying with Cao Shuang, I asked him about their original Tiger Regiment, and then I learned that his original political commissar was named Gan Xingguo, and that this political commissar Gan was originally  He has already been promoted like Wang Dahu, but he still insists on going to Kinmen with Thunder, and the outcome is unknown!"

    After listening to Chen Daxing's narration, Zhang Xian felt as if he was dreaming. When he recalled it carefully, he found that he had indeed seen this man named Chen Fei on the battlefield as Chen Daxing mentioned. No wonder he and Xiong San  I can't even remember where I've seen this face before.

    "Are you sure he is that Gan Xingguo?" Zhang Xian asked again.

    Chen Daxing was a little hesitant, but still nodded.

    Zhang Xian immediately felt that this incident was unusual. If he thought about it carefully, since Lei Ting would be captured by the national army during the Battle of Kinmen, political commissar Gan probably did not escape from Kinmen Island, but he must be hiding.  He had to reveal his true identity, otherwise, with his position as political commissar of a regiment, even if he wanted to surrender, the national army would entrust him with important tasks.  I just don¡¯t know why this guy is doing so well and even has a captain as a captain?  However, when thinking of this, Zhang Xian suddenly thought of himself. When he was captured by the People's Liberation Army, didn't he also stay in the People's Liberation Army for so long incognito?  And in the end, he became the battalion commander.  Could it be that this Chen Fei also had the same shameful experience as him?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
