Chapter 114 A Big Event

The next day, four o'clock in the afternoon, General Administration Bureau courtyard.

Su Tianyu and Su Tianbei were sitting on the sofa in the office, eating fruit and chatting.

Because they were meeting with Tan Mingchao and the others that night to discuss the garrison, Su Tianyu first gave his second brother a few words of advice.

"Dang, dang, dang, dang..."

The clock on the wall chimed four times.

Su Tianyu looked at his watch, "The team I found for you will be here soon."

Su Tianbei grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and said with a smile, "Your speed is amazing. You've built a team for me in just a few days?"

Su Tianyu turned his head and glanced at him, "You don't understand anything, so you definitely need someone familiar to guide you. I've arranged a regimental staff officer, a deputy regimental commander, and two battalion commanders for you. They're all elites, transferred from Xin Xiaodong's side. Each of them is a young officer personally trained by him. You don't know, Xin Xiaodong argued with me for a long time for these four people. It was even more difficult than asking him for money."

Su Tianbei chuckled, "Got it, I'll arrange something for him later."

Su Tianyu added another sentence, "They're all our own people, so it's easy for us to talk. The main thing is the garrison. Although they may not give you soldiers or delegate power to you, we need to build up the structure first, at least make it look like something, so we don't become a laughing stock."

Su Tianbei nodded, "I know."

Su Tianyu patted him on the shoulder and earnestly exhorted, "Second brother, do a good job. Later, spend more money and quickly win over this regiment, and that'll be it."

Su Tianbei's eyes lit up, "You talking about this makes me wide awake. I'm willing to get some cheap stuff from Commander Tan!"

The two smiled conspiratorially at each other and continued eating fruit.

Around five o'clock, the door was knocked, and four strong, energetic soldiers strode in.

All four had clean buzz cuts, wore neat uniforms, and carried neatly packed luggage on their backs.

As soon as they entered the room, the four immediately stood in a row like javelins and saluted Su Tianyu together.

One of them, the shortest in stature but the highest in rank, said, "Report! Lu Boyan, former staff officer of the 112th Regiment of the People's Army First Army, along with Deputy Regimental Commander Yan Xiao, Battalion Commander Zhao Xi, and Wang Jun, report for duty!"

Su Tianyu first returned the salute and shook hands with them warmly, "You've all worked hard. This is my second brother, and your future regimental commander, Su Tianbei..."

"Greetings, Regimental Commander!"

The four shouted in unison.

Su Tianbei also stepped forward at this time and said with a polite smile, "We're all our own people from now on. I've never been in the military, so I'll need your guidance. Coincidentally, I've prepared a small gift for everyone: a watch and the latest model phone, just to show my appreciation!"

As he spoke, he picked up four gift bags from the table and distributed them to them.

Seeing these gifts, the four officers were a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect that this Regimental Commander Su would be so practical, giving gifts upon their first meeting.

Lu Boyan, the leader among them, said a little embarrassedly, "Oh, please don't do this, leader. It makes our relationship seem vulgar!"

He said so, but his hand had already taken the bag.

Su Tianbei smiled, "You're welcome."

Lu Boyan looked at the gift and said shyly, "Look, this makes me feel so embarrassed."

His expression was exactly the same as Xin Xiaodong's when he wanted to rob the treasury – very genuine, not at all pretentious.

Seeing this, Su Tianyu teased from the side, "You're all old foxes, so don't play local tricks anymore. Alright, just take it if it's given to you."

Lu Boyan scratched his head, "Since the Chief of General Staff has said so, then I'll accept it with respect. Hurry up and thank Regimental Commander Su!"

"Thank you, Regimental Commander Su!"

The four of them then put the gifts into their bags. Everyone sat down and chatted for a while, getting to know each other better.

...

At six o'clock in the evening, Su Tianyu, along with Su Tianbei, Hou Guoyu, and the four officers, took a car to a private restaurant near Longkou.

Under the guidance of the manager, they soon arrived in front of a private room. The waiter opened the door, and it was already full of people inside.

Tan Mingchao, Wa Wa, An Qiqi, and Zhou Tonghui were all there.

Su Tianyu smiled and led them in. After exchanging greetings, he briefly introduced the four officers: "These are all young talents from the People's Army: Regimental Staff Officer Lu Boyan, Deputy Regimental Commander Yan Xiao..."

Everyone stood up and shook hands with the four of them politely.

Su Tianyu then introduced the people in the room: "This is An Qiqi, the Minister of Military Intelligence of the An Faction, this is..."

Finally, he focused on introducing Tan Mingchao to the four: "This is Young Master Tan, Commander Tan's son."

"Hello, Commander Tan!"

"Well, we're all our own people from now on, no need to be so polite, please sit down."

Tan Mingchao nodded, and everyone took their seats. The dishes also began to be served in the private room.

The four officers were a little restrained, sitting upright, and didn't say much besides greeting.

Although Su Tianbei's military skills were lacking, his social skills were excellent. He pulled the four of them and took the initiative to chat with everyone.

Su Tianyu sat with Tan Mingchao, and the two spoke in low voices.

Tan Mingchao raised his glass and turned to smile at Su Tianyu, "I heard you're going to the Hua District?"

Su Tianyu jokingly said, "Do I have an undercover agent around me? You know everything I do?"

Tan Mingchao clinked glasses with Su Tianyu and said with a smile, "It's not a secret. When are you planning to go?"

Su Tianyu took a sip of wine, "I may be under the leadership of your Tan Faction now, so I have to see when Commander Tan nods."

Tan Mingchao said speechlessly, "Can you stop bullshitting? Mayor Li might not even be able to control you now, right?"

Su Tianyu quickly laughed, "What are you talking about? Don't say that!"

The two chatted idly for a few more sentences. Su Tianyu paused for a moment and said seriously, "If I go to the Hua District, what suggestions do you have for the garrison?"

Tan Mingchao didn't hide anything and said frankly, "Since things have reached this point, we will definitely support it. You can go, but the garrison will never contact the Hua District."

Su Tianyu nodded slowly, not saying anything more, just clinking glasses with Tan Mingchao again.

After drinking this glass of wine, Tan Mingchao turned to the bodyguard next to him and said, "Xiao Liu, give me the thing."

The bodyguard took out a stack of documents wrapped in plastic bags from his bag and handed them over, "Officer Su, please."

Su Tianyu opened it and saw that it contained the regimental commander's notebook, employment procedures, and an appointment letter.

The appointment letter clearly stated in black and white: "It is hereby appointed: Comrade Su Tianbei as the regimental commander of the 135th Regiment of the Second Army of the Garrison, effective immediately."

Su Tianyu was a little surprised, "So fast?"

As he spoke, he handed the documents and appointment letter to Su Tianbei, who reached out and took them.

Tan Mingchao looked at Su Tianbei and said gently, "Tianbei, I used to lead the 135th Regiment, and I've already told them. You can go there and take office directly."

Su Tianbei raised his glass, "Thank you, Mingchao, I must toast you! I'll finish this, you can do as you please!"

After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank the white wine in the glass in one gulp!

Tan Mingchao was also particular and followed suit by drinking all the wine in his glass. The matter was settled, and the atmosphere between the two sides was very good.

After explaining Su Tianbei's matter, Tan Mingchao turned to Su Tianyu and said, "The issue of your position will have to wait a little longer. You also know that because of the First Army, there needs to be some internal adjustments, which may be a big move. I estimate it will be about the time you come back from the Hua District."

Su Tianyu smiled and nodded slowly, "No rush, try to make room for a good position for me, such as being second only to one person and above ten thousand others."

"Then you should change jobs. Stand in the administrative hall and scold old Li for being a bastard, and I'll give you my position!"

"Forget it, we're destined to only be able to act as bridges!"

"Hahaha!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, then fell silent.

After discussing the main business, the two continued to drink. During this process, Tan Mingchao occasionally looked up, secretly glancing in Wa Wa's direction, and occasionally looking at An Qiqi next to her, with a slightly hesitant expression.

Su Tianyu felt that something was wrong, so he joked, "What's wrong with you? Looking at your expression, you look a bit like the male protagonist in a movie."

Tan Mingchao didn't mind. After thinking for a moment, he took out a square, exquisite small box from his pocket.

At the same time, he took two deep breaths and said to Su Tianyu, "I'm going to do something big today!"
