Chapter 1121: Welcome and cleanse the dust

When Zhao Chen went to the Staff Department to get his work permit, he saw General Feng Kezhi, who had come for a meeting with the 9th Group Army. To be honest, he was a bit stunned; he had thought that Feng Kezhi had died long ago, yet unexpectedly, he was able to see him here.

While chatting with Feng Kezhi, Zhao Chen also saw another old acquaintance, Qian Jinhang… For a moment, he felt as if he had returned to the once mighty Dahua Empire.

However, when he saw the imposing military uniforms on the two men and listened to them discuss a plethora of advanced military terms and theories they had learned at the Great Tang Empire, Zhao Chen, unable to get a word in, was forced back to reality.

He had to admit that this place was not the Dahua Empire, and the people before him were no longer the generals of the Dahua Empire he knew.

“General Luo Xiao has pushed the front line to the east of the Dahua Imperial Capital, and four divisions of troops are moving towards the northeast of the city…” To accommodate Zhao Chen, who was clueless, Feng Kezhi initiated a conversation about the military situation concerning Dahua.

“After your troops surrendered, were they disbanded on the spot?” Feng Kezhi curiously looked towards Zhao Chen, who stood to the side, wearing a brand-new military uniform and holding a paper bag with clothes.

Just like Feng Kezhi before him, Zhao Chen now also held the rank of Major General and was prepared to report to the Great Tang Military Academy in Chang’an tomorrow. To avoid embarrassment, he promptly changed into the newly received uniform, the stars on his shoulders shining brightly.

To be honest, in the General Staff Department of the Great Tang Empire, a major general wasn’t particularly valuable; any casual gathering for a smoke might involve two major generals.

“It seems not. General Luo Xiao took some of them away, and another part was ordered to head south, supposedly to go to Sword Pavilion,” Zhao Chen recalled and answered Feng Kezhi’s question.
