- The happy time of the four brothers of the Xu family
(0860)
Africa, Mediterranean coast, Alexandria.
In the afternoon, Alexandria was shrouded in brilliant sunlight.
This is a strange city that combines Eastern and Western cultures, as well as the essence of green religion and Christianity. Here, you can discover the mysterious Eastern civilization as well as the advanced Western civilization. Green cult fanatics hang out here. Missionaries from the West can also walk freely here.
Geographically speaking, Alexandria should belong to Africa. But from a commercial and trade perspective, it should belong to Europe. Its commercial and trade partners are almost all Western powers. But in terms of management, it belonged to the Ottoman Turkish Empire. The collection of various contradictions has created the strange phenomenon in Alexandria today.
In fact, not only Alexandria, but also ports on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean basically have this strange phenomenon. Because, in the past, this area was ruled by the Holy Roman Empire and had a strong Christian style. Later, the Arab Empire rose and snatched it away. Christianity was violently driven away, and Green Christianity gradually spread.
Later, with the demise of the Arab Empire, the area fell under the rule of the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Roman Empire) again. Naturally, Christchurch came back and tried to expel the Green Cult. The repeated Crusades were a concrete manifestation of religious struggle. A total of nine crusades were launched, all of which failed. Later, the Ottoman Turkish Empire rose and snatched them away again, and the holy city of Jerusalem also fell.
It can be said that the ports on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean have basically witnessed the political changes of the past dynasties in West Asia. They repeatedly swayed back and forth between Christian civilization and green religion civilization, constantly absorbing the essence of both and constantly discarding the dross of both. In the end, after years of precipitation, it created the unique phenomenon it has today.
Now, the arrival of the White Army will definitely bring a more distinctive atmosphere to these areas. The White Army combines the mysterious civilization of the East with advanced science and technology. Except for religious civilization, everything else is outstanding. There is no doubt that the appearance of the White Army will make all the port cities along the Mediterranean coast explode with unprecedented vitality. At the same time, it will also make them more dazzling.
"What is this? I really can't get used to it!"
¡°Exotic delicacies are all like this, just try them.¡±
At this moment, Xu Canxu and Xu Canhuai were sitting in a roadside bar behind Alexandria Port, enjoying the so-called local delicacies with great interest. They made an appointment in advance and then went through formal channels to ask for leave. After the White Army captured Alexandria, there was no fighting for the time being. Officers and soldiers who wanted to take vacations would arrange vacations as much as possible as long as they could be arranged. Among them, many officers and soldiers took leave to wander around Alexandria.
Xu Canxu and Xu Canhuai also made an appointment to spend the holidays together. Their status is special. Everywhere they go, they have to walk around as much as possible to understand the situation in each place. Because, in addition to being Xu Xingxia's sons, they are also spies of the Supreme Council Chairman, and they need to report everything they see truthfully. Among them, food is also something that needs to be reported. Unfortunately, the taste of these delicacies is really not suitable for two people.
There was a table full of delicacies, and they just tried a little bit of each one to taste the unique taste, then put down their knives and forks and had no desire to continue eating. Such wasteful behavior made the messenger in the bar despise the two of them. However, since both of them were wearing the uniforms of the White Army, they did not dare to say anything.
As traditional oriental people, Xu Canxu and the others are already used to various oriental foods, and they are really not used to the so-called "Western food". After barely filling their stomachs, the two of them held red wine glasses and looked at everything outside in silence. If there's anything that's truly acceptable here, it's wine without borders.
Where they are, they can overlook Alexandria from a high position. In their sight, Alexandria looked extremely busy. Merchant ships one after another kept docking, unloading large amounts of supplies. The open spaces on both sides of the port were filled with various military supplies, and the military police of the Marine Corps in white were on guard.
It turned out that Alexandria was quite desolate, with gantry frames and pulleys everywhere. On both sides of the port, roads and warehouses are being built. A large number of construction personnel from the Navy are skillfully transforming Alexandria. When the transformation is completed, Alexandria's trade volume, throughput, and transportation volume will be at least thirty times greater than before.
Xu Canxu took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and then put it back in his pocket.?Waiting for someone.
Xu Canhuai said with a smile: "Brother, you have fallen in love with a girl somewhere, right? Do you want me to check it for you first, and then tell your family?"
Xu Canxu shook his head and said: "Tch, if I really fall in love with a girl, I will naturally tell my family, where do I need you to check? What can you check? I heard that those bastards in your army are killing all the way. Come here and ruin a lot of beauties. Those bastards caught stunning beauties and stuffed them into daddy's arms. How shameless!"
Xu Canhuai said with a smile: "If you are jealous, just transfer to the army."
Xu Canxu shook his head and said: "Forget it, I still prefer the navy. I like the feeling of driving a warship on the sea, flying into the wind!"
While speaking, Xu Canxu looked around again, obviously waiting for someone.
Xu Canhuai smiled reluctantly and said: "Don't worry, if you really have a sweetheart, let her show her face quickly so that we can get to know each other in advance. An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. How long can you hide it? Our father is He will definitely not interfere. He has always advocated freedom of marriage. He is only responsible for arranging marriages. However, your mother may have to nag you a few words."
Xu Canxu shook his head and said, "I told you it's not the case, so don't nag."
Xu Canhuai said meaningfully: "Let me guess, where is the beauty? Along the Mediterranean coast, there are Spain, France, Portugal, Italy and other countries, and there is also Portugal outside Which country is it from? Our dad said However, French women are very slutty, so it¡¯s no wonder that in Italy the men are handsome. In Spain, there don¡¯t seem to be many beauties. I¡¯m curious, which country are the beauties from?¡±
Xu Canxu said angrily: "You are too bored. I don't even know what nonsense you are talking about. What does it matter if you are a beauty from which country? Even if you are not a beauty, it doesn't matter! I am a person who has always taken the initiative inside. beautiful¡¡"
Xu Canhuai chuckled and said: "Come on, you have to go through your mother's test first. You are different from me. The relationship between you and your mother has never been good. Even though you are a teenager, your mother still wants to beat you. You Look at me, I have coaxed my mother to death and listened to me in everything. There will definitely be no problem in getting a wife in the future. Even if my father is there, there will be no problem if my mother comes forward. "
Xu Canxu said disapprovingly: "Don't my mother and your mother have the same taste? I can't see any big difference between them at all. I said you are really shy, you are such a big person. The mouth is still so sweet. When I heard it, I felt sick. But your mother liked it more and more the more she listened to it. It's so disgusting. "
Xu Canhuai smiled, said nothing, and looked proud.
Their mothers were all the three beauties of the grassland who were famous in those days. Originally, they thought they would marry Lin Danhan, but unexpectedly, they were snatched away by Xu Xingxia in the end. Speaking of which, their father was really ruthless, a typical lawless man who robbed civilian girls. Except for the three beauties of the grassland, all the other women in their father's harem, except Zhu Yilan and a few women, were snatched away. A typical twisted melon, it must be sweet even if it is not sweet.
It¡¯s a pity that it was a special era, and no matter what you did, you would not be held accountable. But now that the law is gradually improving, this kind of thing is basically impossible to do. At least, in the area controlled by the White Army, we can't act so recklessly. Even if you like a girl, you have to go through legal channels to get it. Of course, if she is a woman from a hostile country, she can still be snatched directly. Europe now is the enemy of the White Army. This means that European women can freely rob women without restraint.
Xu Canxu looked at his pocket watch again, then looked at the sky outside, and said to himself: "The two of them have forgotten the time and place, right?"
Xu Canhuai asked curiously: "Brother, who did you date?"
Xu Canxu said mysteriously: "I won't tell you. You will know when you come."
Xu Canhuai had no choice but to shut up in confusion. Fortunately, they didn't wait long. After a moment, two young men appeared at the end of the street and walked towards them. One was wearing the uniform of a Marine Corps second lieutenant, and the other was wearing an ordinary Army second lieutenant uniform.
"They are coming!" Xu Canxu stood up and waved to the two young officers.
The eyes of the two young officers were pretty good. They immediately noticed their presence and walked over quickly. Xu Canhuai's original confused expression immediately relaxed, and a smile appeared on his lips. It turned out that it was the two of them that my eldest brother made an appointment with. I really didn¡¯t expect it at all. Why did the two of them end up in the Mediterranean Sea?
"Brother."
"Second brother."
"The third child."
¡°The fourth child.¡±
The two came to Xu Canxu and Xu Canhuai and greeted them politely.
Needless to say, they are Xu Xiangfeng, the third eldest son, and Xu Xianghua, the fourth eldest son of the Xu Xingxia family.
When Xu Xingxia names her children, she is not limited to which word must be used. "Brilliant Flying" can be embedded in the name. However, for some unknown reason, most of his sons have five elements missing wood, so the last character usually has the character wood next to it. Fortunately, there are many Chinese characters next to the wooden characters, so there is no need to worry about not having enough.
"Come on."
"Sit, sit."
Xu Canxu warmly greeted his two younger brothers to sit down.
As the eldest son, he is naturally half the master, and he will direct the bar messengers around.
Xu Xiangfeng and Xu Xianghua were not polite. They pulled out their stools and sat down next to their two brothers. Probably tired from walking, the two of them picked up the water glasses and drank them all in one go. After drinking three glasses of water in a row, they felt less thirsty.
Xu Canxu asked curiously: "What? You have taken a lot of wrongdoings?"
Xu Xiangfeng said with a smile: "I don't, it's just that the fourth child is a bit of a road addict, and I couldn't find him after searching for a long time. Fortunately, he met me on the road, otherwise, we probably wouldn't be able to see him today. Fourth child, your geography , I must have cheated on the exam!"
Xu Xianghua smiled helplessly and said: "The geography teacher didn't say this."
Xu Canxu said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, just exercise more. Fourth, it doesn't matter if you get lost in Alexandria. Don't get lost when you get to Europe. Otherwise, if you are dragged in by a group of beauties, we will never be able to find you in the future." .¡±
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was very happy.
Xu Canxu, the eldest son, really has no airs at all, and it is quite pleasant to get along with his brothers. In fact, as the eldest son, Xu Canxu did not have any special status. Because Xu Xingxia's first wife is Zhu Yilan, not Tessna. In Xu Xingxia's harem, except for Zhu Yilan, who weighs more, the other women are basically the same.
It seems that Xu Xingxia is not ready to hand over the huge family business to a single son. He preferred the previous feudal system, which allowed each son to take charge of a large area. The world is so big, it is entirely possible for one son to take charge of a region. As for the specific distribution plan, that is a matter for the future and has not been put on the agenda for the time being.
Since there is no such thing as a prince or heir, the conflict of interests between brothers is not that serious. Each of them has their own fiefdom, which is basically enough. As for the quality of the fiefdom, its resources, area, and population, that is all a matter for the future. This is why the four of them can sit down happily. For now, they don't need to scheming and fighting for power.
The four brothers sat down and chatted for a while, nothing more than their respective work experiences. This is their homework, and they need to submit it when they meet their father. Among them, Xu Canxu is in the Navy, Xu Canhuai is in the Army, Xu Xiangfeng is in the Marine Corps, and Xu Xianghua is in the Naval Engineering Team. It just covers most of the arms of the White Army.
"Ah? Your Marine Corps has already arrived in Cyprus? You are so fast! You won't try to attack Istanbul alone, right? I'm warning you, if your Marine Corps doesn't play with our Army and prepares to go it alone, Our Army can never stop fighting with your Marine Corps." Xu Canhuai said pretending to be serious.
"The speed of the Marines is indeed fast, faster than our navy." Xu Canxu nodded and said thoughtfully. After pondering for a moment, he continued: "If I guessed correctly, you should have been escorted here by the Eighteenth Fleet, right?"
Xu Xiangfeng nodded and said: "Yes, it is the 18th Fleet."
Xu Canxu said dullly: "This Eighteenth Fleet can run faster than a shark!"
The Fourth Fleet of the Navy where he belongs has always been the main force in naval battles and has always been at the forefront. This time entering the Mediterranean is no exception. However, in the sea near Tunisia, the Fourth Fleet collided with a pirate named Hayreddin, which delayed the ship for several days. By the time they cleaned up Hayredin, the Eighteenth Fleet, which came from behind, had already reached Cyprus. This made Xu Canxu feel a little unhappy.
"You don't know, our speed is really fast, but it's actually so boring that I don't want to live anymore." Xu Xiangfeng said with a wry smile. He is also a smart man. He felt that his elder brother was a little unhappy, so he hurriedly found something embarrassing about himself to comfort his elder brother.
"Oh? What do you say? Let's talk about it?" Xu Canhuai suddenly became interested.
Xu Canxu's attention was also attracted, and the discomfort he felt just now disappeared immediately.
"It's a long story" Xu Xiangfeng explained briefly. It turns out that he, a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps, is actually a fake. He only stayed in the Marine Corps boot camp for three months before officially serving in the Marine Corps' Swordfish Battalion. He boarded the ship from Leizhou Peninsula and sailed all the way around the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Mediterranean Sea. He wandered at sea for more than half a year, and finally landed in Cyprus.
During the entire voyage, thousands of officers and soldiers of the Marine Corps Swordfish Battalion only docked at Malacca, Calihaite, the Cape of Good Hope, Madeira Islands and other places to take a short rest. And each break is only for a maximum of three days. After three days, he immediately boarded the ship and left.
You can imagine what kind of suffering this is. Especially for Xu Xiangfeng, who has not been training for too long, it is an unprecedented challenge. Several times, he vomited to death on the rocking transport ship, as if he would die at the next moment. Fortunately, his mother's genes were strong enough to keep him going.
By the way, I forgot to mention that Xu Xiangfeng¡¯s mother is Savanna, one of the three queens of the Western Regions. Although she entered the Xu family relatively late, her secret recipe for giving birth to a son was indeed remarkable. I don¡¯t know how she withstood Xu Xingxia¡¯s life and had six children in a row, all of them boys. In the entire harem of Xu Xingxia, this family is the only one with no semicolon. Fully half a dozen men! Xu Xiangfeng is the biggest one.
As for Xu Xianghua, he is Masatini¡¯s son. Masatini was originally an old enemy of the White Army, but one can only imagine what kind of fate she would have if she fell into the hands of Xu Xingxia. When the Three Kingdoms in the Western Regions fell, she was naturally the first one to be ruined by Xu Xingxia. As a result, God opened her eyes. After being abused by Xu Xingxia several times, she fell into the trap. It seems that she has some unique charm with Savannah, and she actually gave birth to five sons in a row. A strong woman needs no explanation.
Women from the Three Kingdoms of the Western Regions all seem to have secret recipes for giving birth to sons. Except for Savannah and Masatini, the other queens, priestesses, and priestesses are basically all men as long as they are pregnant. It seems that Rosalind, Hazel and others all gave birth to four sons in succession. Among Xu Xiangfeng's brothers, from the third to thirty, they were all born from the Women's Army of the Western Region Legion. Zhu Yilan's son will be ranked 31st.
Time has passed, more than ten years have passed, and Masatini¡¯s past events have gradually been forgotten. For the sake of the five sons, any hatred can be dissipated. What's more, there is actually no personal enmity between her and Xu Xingxia. It's just that she was deeply poisoned by the Green Sect, and she only wanted to prevent the white-clothed army from entering the Three Kingdoms of the Western Region. Now, she has been successfully brainwashed and has nothing to do with the Green Sect.
Fifteen years ago, as the empress of the palace, Zhu Yilan quietly sealed Masatini¡¯s past. As a child, Xu Xianghua had no idea that his mother was once a relatively different kind of woman. All the brothers thought that Savannah and Masatini were good sisters! At least, that's how they look on the outside.
"You think, what kind of commotion will Lao Wu and Lao Liu make in America?" After Xu Xianghua told his "embarrassing story", he changed the subject and asked with interest.
Between Europe and America, Xu Xianghua actually prefers to choose America as his fiefdom. Because it's all uncivilized land and you can plan it yourself. He prefers the feeling of describing pictures on white paper. In fact, many brothers like to draw maps in America. The resources and scenery there are always so fresh and curious.
Xu Canhuai said casually: "There are some indigenous people over there, what kind of commotion can they make? Those vampire-like armed merchants open the way in front, and the others can follow behind to take advantage. The Western powers have given up their colonies, and all the The troops have all retreated back here. Give me a squadron and I can sweep across the entire America."
Xu Xianghua said in shock: "What? A squadron? Isn't that too exaggerated?"
Xu Xianghua said confidently: "It's no exaggeration, one squadron is enough! Really!"
Xu Xianghua looked innocent and said to himself: "I thought a small team was enough. Who knew you actually needed a squadron"
Before he finished speaking, the others couldn't help laughing.
Xu Canhuai was slightly stunned and did not react for a moment. When he reacted, he couldn't help but laugh. After laughing, he said angrily: "Fourth brother, if you have the ability, just say in the report that you can sweep across America with just a small team! I'll see if Dad will really give it to you after reading the report. A team!¡±
Xu Xianghua would not do such a stupid thing, he immediately shook his head,It means that you made a mistake.
Xu Canxu waved to the bar messenger to bring more wine. Today, the four brothers met and the atmosphere was really pleasant. He decided to use all his allowance to buy wine. After a while, the wine was served and everyone cheered and enjoyed themselves.
This afternoon was definitely a happy one for the four brothers. Perhaps, after a long, long time, they will deeply miss this enjoyable afternoon.
