Lei Qiang stood in front of the student formation, scanning the crowd with a pair of sharp and imposing eyes, and solemnly announced: "Next, each squadron leader will lead the team and go to the equipment department to collect the engineer shovel and saplings."
"Squadron 1, turn left and run!"
"Second Squadron, turn left and run!"
"Squadron Three, turn left and run!"
As Lei Qiang finished speaking, the three squadron leaders stepped forward and issued orders one after another. The three assembled student squadrons began to move, running forward, and headed straight to the equipment.
The student pilot brigade has a total of three squadrons. The number of people in each squadron is not fixed. There are more or less, corresponding to the first, second and third floors of the dormitory building. The four people in dormitory 308 all belong to the third squadron.
"Old Xiao, is this tree planting activity held every year?" Zhou Hai stayed at the back of the team and asked Xiao Nan while running.
This was Zhou Hai's first contact with Arbor Day activities, which was a bit new. He had never participated in Arbor Day activities in the past.
"Yes, it happens every year, but this is also the first time for me to plant trees. No, it's herbaceous plants for load-bearing and greening. The academy is using us pilots as livestock."
Xiao Nan kept running, looked at the squadron leader on the left side of the team, and responded in a low voice, a little angrily, and unceremoniously labeled himself a pilot: "It's already six o'clock, so I have to run to the Air Force Memorial Park in the city. Thirty minutes, an hour of hard work, and another half an hour when you come back."
There was resentment in his words.
is not that right?
A proud man of heaven, instead of flying, would engage in activities such as planting trees, which is simply not doing his job properly.
No, in the eyes of Xiao Nan, a lazy person, it was like using them as livestock.
Can it have a bit of a pilot look and feel?
"I think it's good, it expands your interest in life." Zhou Hai said.
"..." Xiao Nan rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I feel like we have almost nothing in common except flying and studying."
Zhou Hai smiled slightly but said nothing.
"Student Zhou Hai of the Third Squadron, come out!" Suddenly, a rich and powerful voice sounded, spreading throughout the entire team of students.
On the right side of the marching team, an unfamiliar colonel officer and flight instructor Yang Xiaolong stood quietly, waiting quietly.
"yes!"
When Zhou Hai saw Yang Xiaolong and this strange officer, he was confused and responded loudly. Under the gaze of Xiao Nan and the other three people, he quickly left the queue and ran towards the two men.
Zhao Ziqing, who was in the front row, frowned slightly and turned to look at Xiao Nan: "Old Xiao, what's going on?"
"Did Zhou Hai commit a crime?" Han Li was puzzled.
Xiao Nan was even more confused and replied: "I know Basketball, how could he commit a crime? The standard is three points and one line every day, and he doesn't even play basketball. I think Teacher Yang is here, so it shouldn't be a bad thing."
"Xiao Nan, Han Li and Zhao Ziqing, no discussion is allowed and keep quiet!" The captain of the squadron focused his eyes on Xiao Nan and shouted loudly.
The atmosphere in the team became solemn. Xiao Nan, who was about to continue talking, showed a helpless expression and remained quiet, choosing silence.
The same was true for Han Li and Zhao Ziqing, who did not dare to continue communicating.
In the dusk, the student team gradually left.
At this time, Zhou Hai, who had left the trainee queue, came to the unfamiliar colonel and Yang Xiaolong in a standard queue posture. He straightened his body, looked serious, and raised his hands in salute: "Report to Comrade Chief, Comrade Teacher, Student Zhou Hai has arrived!"
Yang Xiaolong's face was calm, with a faint smile, and he raised his hand to return the favor to Zhou Hai.
"Hello, classmate Zhou Hai, please come with me." The colonel officer looked at Zhou Hai carefully, nodded, and said seriously.
After saying that, the two turned around and walked along the road.
What on earth is this for?
Zhou Hai remained silent, his doubts becoming more intense, and he quietly followed behind the two of them.
…
The sky is getting dark and the evening breeze is blowing.
College, administration building, conference room.
The LED digital tube installed at the top of the conference room displayed red words, and a solemn and serious secret commendation meeting officially began with the arrival of Zhou Hai.
Zhou Hai, who was wearing training uniform, stood in the center of the conference room. To his left stood an acquaintance in regular clothes, Zhang Peng, who liked to smoke and was somewhat unreliable.
On the stage, the dean was present, as were the vice deans and senior school leaders. There was also a strange air force landing with the rank of major general on his shoulders.
There are not many people, but the lineup is luxurious.
Zhou Hai, who finally understood the whole thing, had to admit that if he could, he would definitely go back and change into regular clothes and wear three military medals.
honor!
A separate commendation meeting for Zhou Hai and Zhang Peng!
"Six days ago, Zhou Hai, a 2019 higher education aircraft student at Shicheng Flight College, returned to school with his pick-up and drop-off officer Zhang Peng. On the way, China Southern Airlines flight cz8954 encountered a bird collision. The situation was very critical and there was no need to delay. The lives of the people and the aircraft were at stake. One line.”
Standing on the stage of the conference room, the director of the political department of the college wears the rank of colonel on both shoulders. He is dressed in regular clothes, has a serious face, and has a solemn and powerful voice, which contains a strong military aura:
"At the critical moment, Zhou Hai, a student of our school, and Zhang Peng, the pick-up and drop-off cadre, made a decisive decision, stepped forward, and cooperated with each other to save the lives and property of the aircraft and the people, and recover the heavy losses for the country and the people."
The words resounded throughout the conference room through the microphone and reached everyone's ears.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhou Hai and Zhang Peng.
Zhou Hai stood in a military posture, with a calm demeanor and a peaceful heart. He had already experienced the current situation.
On the contrary, Zhang Peng's eyes were slightly red, his left and right hands were close to the outside of his legs, his whole body was tense, and he looked a little excited.
"During the whole incident, trainee Zhou Hai's performance was particularly outstanding. With his tenacious steel will and spirit, he withstood the extreme environment of high altitude, low temperature and low pressure, learned the driving skills of a large passenger aircraft, and finally successfully piloted the aircraft to make an emergency landing. Zhang Peng, the pick-up and drop-off cadre, maintained order in the accident , played a role that cannot be ignored for the successful emergency landing of the aircraft.”
The director of the Political Department stared at Zhou Hai and Zhang Peng, picked up the manuscript, and read slowly: "When the plane was about to crash, and when the lives of the people were in danger, Zhou Hai and Zhang Peng stepped forward resolutely. , make significant contributions, be worthy of the status of a soldier, demonstrate the spirit and will of soldiers in the new era, and fulfill their oath to protect the country and the people."
The sonorous and powerful words, full of heroic and majestic meaning, resounded all around.
"In order to set an example, inspire the advanced, and commend heroic deeds, after research and decision by the superior organization, Comrade Zhou Hai, a 2019 higher education aircraft pilot student of our school, will be awarded first-class merit once, and Comrade Zhang Peng, an outstanding cadre of our school, will be awarded second-class merit once. In addition, China Southern Airlines gave two comrades a cash reward of one million each."
The director of the Political Department read out the commendation awards to Zhou Hai and Zhang Peng with a manuscript as light as a feather: "I hope the two commended comrades will cherish the honor and carry forward the fine traditions and spirit of our army."
