Jackie Chan has never met the director of the Political Department, so he doesn't know what he is looking for.
Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi and Xu Sanduo also looked confused.
But this was a direct invitation from the head of the regiment, which was a military order that could not be disobeyed. Even if he was deceived, he had to go through quickly.
What's more, it is a good thing in most cases for the head of the group newspaper to personally summon him.
If it's bad.
It was not the lieutenant-in-charge who came, but a team of white hat pickets.
"Squad leader, it shouldn't be a big deal. It won't be long. You guys wait here for me. Let's go back to Steel Company 7 together."
Jackie Chan thought that it should be about awarding awards, so he could just go over there and get them.
After all, he performed so well in the exercise, and he also performed very well in the previous year-end assessment, so it is normal to receive awards or something.
The Political Department is responsible for awarding awards.
"No need to wait, I have arranged a car and will come to take you back to the Seventh Company later."
The lieutenant officer's words were a little incomprehensible, and both Shi Jin and Jackie Chan couldn't understand them.
Can’t guess which one to play!
The lieutenant officer did not explain. He turned around and led the way and urged: "Okay, private, let's go. Don't keep the leader waiting too long."
"Then squad leader, squad deputy, Sanduo, you go first, I will come back later."
Jackie Chan had no choice but to say hello, and then quickly followed him carrying his things.
Jackie Chan was still curious along the way.
What is it that is so mysterious? No details are given at all, and the time is so urgent.
He didn't even bother to go back to Gang Qi to have a look, so he was pulled over directly.
With curiosity, I entered the main building of the regiment headquarters and followed the officer to the door of an office. The sign hanging on the door read the regimental political office.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk."
The lieutenant-in-charge knocked on the door.
"Come in."
He sounds like he is 40 years old, and he is not very energetic. He sounds like an old political worker.
"Come, follow me."
The lieutenant officer opened the door and walked in, not forgetting to greet Jackie Chan with him.
When I entered, I saw a 20-cent major, wearing a pair of myopia glasses, with documents on the table, sitting behind the desk correcting something.
"Report."
The lieutenant officer saluted, and then said: "Director, I have finished what you asked me to do. I have brought the Jackie Chan you are looking for."
"Are you Jackie Chan?"
The director of the Political Department pushed up his glasses and looked at the people with surprise.
Everyone who meets Jackie Chan for the first time is surprised.
"Yes, Chief."
Jackie Chan saluted and replied.
"I've heard for a long time that there is a fierce general in our group. It's better to meet him than to be famous. He is indeed a young hero, Lu Bu among men. Your physique is really rare."
The director of the Political Department was full of praise, and his expression and expression were not hypocritical politeness at all, but he truly spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Those who engage in political work are good at talking.
"Thank you for the compliment, chief. I just grew stronger and read more books." Jackie Chan said modestly.
pity.
This modesty doesn't sound too modest at all.
"Hahaha."
The director of the Political Department was amused. He opened the bookcase below and started to take things from the desk. As he took things out, he said: "I specially asked you to come here this time. Actually, there are only two things. The first is this."
The director of the Political Department took out various stamped certificates one by one.
Regiment headquarters commendation, military region live-fire confrontation exercise pacesetter, division headquarters commendation, outstanding soldier certificate, advanced soldier certificate, outstanding contribution commendation, honorary certificate, third-class merit certificate...
etc.
There are a total of 13 certificates, commendations and awards of all kinds.
"this……"
The lieutenant officer looked at this pile of honors, his eyes widened and his brain was buzzing.
Others only get one or two honors in their lifetime as soldiers, but you are lucky enough to start wholesale directly and come to the regiment to purchase goods.
They were moved home in bundles.
This man compares to others.
It can really piss people off.
The director of the Political Department finally took out a red box, walked to Jackie Chan, opened it, and said in a surprised but pleased tone: "Personal third-class merit medal, if I remember correctly, this is the second one you have received. .
In less than two years after joining the army, you can get two third-class personal merits and more than 10 other various awards and honors.
I have worked in the army for so many years, and you are really the first one. It opened my eyes. "
After sighing, the director of the Political Department personally pinned the medal on Jackie Chan's chest, patted his chest, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Comrade Jackie Chan."
"Thank you, chief, and thank you to the army for training me. I will definitely continue to work hard to reach a higher level."
Jackie Chan saluted with a snap, his body standing extra tall.
No soldier would despise himself for having too many honors, just like no businessman would despise having too much money. Faced with so many honors, Jackie Chan's statement that he is unhappy is definitely a lie.
"This is what you deserve. The military research institute has tested the anti-infrared detection camouflage cloth you designed. Although it was not adopted immediately, it felt that there were lessons to be learned, so I specially awarded you a third-class merit.
If it can be produced and developed in the future and promoted throughout the army, you will be given second-class merit. "
The director of the Political Department suppressed the exclamation in his heart. He was pleased that the 702nd Regiment had produced a military genius. He turned around and picked up the pile of honors from the table and handed them all to Jackie Chan.
It was inconvenient to see Jackie Chan carrying his luggage and carrying so many awards and certificates.
I found a big plastic bag and put all of Jackie Chan's certificates in it.
Although the plastic bags don't look very high-end, there's really no way around it. Jackie Chan is here to buy the goods. There are too many honorary certificates.
All the document bags and briefcases are too small to fit in.
"Oh, right."
Let Jackie Chan carry the plastic bag, and the director of the Political Department turned around and walked to the cabinet next to him.
"What else??? No way!!!"
The lieutenant and the clerk were all numb.
Others say they are joking about buying goods, but when it comes to your feelings, it is really buying goods.
Wave after wave came in.
Can't stop.
The director of the Political Department kept giving out awards to himself. As soon as he took the third-class merit with him, the second-class merit was already lined up. Even Jackie Chan himself was a little dumbfounded.
On the other hand, the director of the political office was full of joy, as if he was addicted to giving out prizes.
He opened the cabinet and took out a document and a two-palm-sized military green cloth bag. He walked over and handed it to Jackie Chan and said, "There are two documents in here, both of which were personally approved by the regiment leader.
One is your transfer document in advance to become a non-commissioned officer, and the other is your personnel transfer notice.
This bag contains all the accessories of a corporal, which you can change after you get down, and you can handle it yourself if you have a rank of corporal. "
"Huh? Transfer to sergeant in advance? Personnel transfer?"
Even though Jackie Chan had lived two lifetimes, he was still caught off guard by this sudden attack.
There was no news at all before, but now it is suddenly all on him, and no matter how big-hearted a person is, he can't stand it.
and.
It would be better to transfer to sergeant early.
Jackie Chan has received so many awards for his meritorious service, so he is completely qualified to be transferred to a non-commissioned officer in advance. Even if he is qualified for the test, there is no problem at all.
Although it was unexpected, it was not surprising.
But what the hell is this personnel transfer? Hasn’t the Seventh Steel Company not been disbanded yet? Why did the personnel transfer order fall on me first?
Jackie Chan is puzzled!
Stimulated by strong doubts in his heart, Jackie Chan couldn't help but ask: "Excuse me, chief, which company have I been transferred to?"
"Red Third Company."
"Red Third Company???"
Jackie Chan was shocked by this transfer, but before he could react from the shock, the director of the Political Department threw another bigger "explosion."
"Yes, Red Third Company, Red Third Company, Class 5, you will be the deputy squad leader."
"Grassland Class 5?"
Jackie Chan was dumbfounded on the spot!
The 702nd Regiment has a limerick specifically used to describe Prairie Class 5.
The sky is blue and the wilderness is vast.
Next to the grassland, stationed at the training ground.
The graves of all the squad leaders.
A paradise for all wimps.
Every word in this limerick reveals what a hopeless place Class 5 on the grassland is, and what a torment it is to go there.
As a person who traveled through time, Jackie Chan knew very well how desolate Class 5 was on the grassland, and he never thought he would go to Class 5.
A soldier who performs as well as him is undoubtedly a hot commodity and will receive the best resources and the best training conditions.
How could he be transferred to Class 5 and waste time in a place like that?
Jackie Chan couldn’t figure it out at all!
The director of the Political Department did not need Jackie Chan to figure it out, and quickly cut through the mess and arranged: "The instructor of the Red Third Company will be here soon, and he will personally send you to Class Five.
This is an arrangement personally made by the group leader, so you don’t have to bear any mental burden.
I can assure you that you will be transferred back in half a year, or at most half a year. When the time comes, you will never regret your trip to the Grassland Class 5. "
The director of the Political Department had already taken a fancy to Jackie Chan, and he even talked about it for this reason.
Normally.
He didn't need to say the next words at all. The military orders were overwhelming and he had to go even if he didn't go.
"Okay, chief, I understand."
Although Jackie Chan couldn't figure out for a while why he was thrown into the fifth grassland class, this was an order personally issued by the leader, and he had to obey it no matter how unwilling he was.
The only regret is...
The moment Seventh Company of Steel is officially adapted, I'm afraid Jackie Chan won't be able to personally participate.
Fortunately, everything that needs to be done has been done.
"It's good if you understand."
The director of the Political Department patted Jackie Chan on the chest and said meaningfully at the end: "This is the hard work of the regiment leader. When you go to Class 5, don't forget your original intention."
"Yes, Chief!"
Jackie Chan raised his hands and chest in salute.
He seemed to understand something, but he couldn't grasp it if he thought about it carefully.
Less than 2 minutes passed.
He Hongtao, the instructor of the Third Red Company, rushed over in a hurry. Without even bothering to wipe the sweat from his forehead, he was immediately arranged to send Jackie Chan to report to Class 5.
Sitting in the Changfeng Cheetah off-road vehicle in the regiment, Jackie Chan turned around on the way back to the seventh steel company and headed towards the lowest class in the regiment.
Going from the best in the group to the worst in the group is equivalent to going from heaven to hell in one step.
Jackie Chan couldn't figure out what Captain Wang meant, and He Hongtao also couldn't figure out what it meant, so he talked a lot with Jackie Chan in the car.
One point in particular was mentioned.
If the regiment leader had not specified that he must go to Class 5, He Hongtao would have sent Jackie Chan to the Red Third Company in one car, and Jackie Chan would have chosen the best class in the company.
Send the best-performing warriors in the regiment to a pension class where they will sit and wait for death.
He Hongtao feels...
What a waste!
But after talking about all the regrets, He Hongtao did what his instructor is best at, brainwashing Jackie Chan.
Let Jackie Chan believe that the regiment believes in the troops. This must be for his own good.
Let Jackie Chan be strong, self-reliant and keep his true nature, no matter where he is, never lose his true colors, so that the future will still be bright.
He also kindly helped Jackie Chan with his own hands and helped him get a new military rank.
The two crutches that had only been used for three months were not yet warm, and then they became two guns and one crutch.
To this.
Jackie Chan had nothing to say except thanking He Hongtao for his concern.
After all, people who have lived two lifetimes.
The mentality is not as fragile as that of a young person, who will collapse when encountering a slight setback.
Although I was shocked when I first heard the news, and my mood may have changed a little, it has been so long now, and my mentality has long since adjusted.
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Let's just go with it. Anyway, there is nothing big to do later. I have done everything I can do in the adaptation of Gang Seven Company. The rest can only wait for the results. It is still very early for the selection of Lao A. When the time comes, You can think of another way.”
Jackie Chan organized his thoughts in his mind and calmly accepted the trip of Class 5 to the grassland.
My mood is better and my mentality is stable.
Looking at the empty loess grassland outside, I actually felt relaxed and happy.
"Jackie Chan, this is Platoon 2 and Squad 5. You will be guarding the training ground here from now on. Come on, get off the car and I will take you to identify the people."
After driving dozens of roads, we finally arrived. He Hongtao greeted Jackie Chan to get off the bus.
"Xu Sanduo didn't come, but I'm here. Things are so unpredictable."
Jackie Chan picked up his things and got out of the car. He looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar training ground and camp in front of him. He really had mixed feelings in his heart.
He Hongtao was very familiar with this place and took Jackie Chan directly into the class.
The scene that appeared before my eyes...
Jackie Chan can’t bear to look at it!
Xue Lin, Lao Wei, Li Meng, and Lao Ma happened to sit down around the square table. There was a deck of cards on the table, and they were having fun playing cards.
Everyone's look is different.
Lao Ma must have lost miserably at cards, as his face and forehead were covered with notes.
Xue Lin should have won the most. He only had two or three pieces of paper hanging on his face, squatting with his feet on the stool, overwhelming the audience with his momentum.
Li Meng had a big cotton-padded jacket covering his head and looked like he was playing a monster.
Xue Lin had several camouflage bags hanging on his body. He looked like a migrant worker who had just come to the city to work after the Chinese New Year. He looked like he had lost miserably.
The four of them were having so much fun playing cards that they didn't even notice that the dormitory door was pushed open.
You can tell.
Without Xu Sanduo's stubbornness to work hard and not waste a good life, the four major members of Prairie Class 5 would wake up from their dreams.
Even if the timeline is moved back a year, nothing here has changed.
Lao Ma did not take the initiative to leave the army, Lao Wei did not subsequently demobilize, and Li Meng did not work as a military newspaper correspondent in the regiment.
The four generals of Class 5 are still living in a state of drunkenness and dreaming, living day by day.
Every day I am either playing cards or enjoying the autumn breeze.
Jackie Chan personally thinks this is good. Soldiers are like bricks in the army. They can be moved wherever they are needed. There is no distinction between high and low.
The frontline needs brave soldiers to fight, and the logistics also needs soldiers who can endure loneliness to guard it.
Without Lao Ma to guard him, Lao Yang is needed.
This brick is indispensable!
If you don't have some fun every day stationed in this inhospitable place, you really can't stay any longer and have no choice but to retire and go home.
It's so boring!
There was no need for Lao Ma and the others to leave in the first place. Although he could not become an elite in the combat force, as the best squad leader of the 702nd Regiment, he could definitely switch to logistics.
As long as the methods are in place, Lao Ma can also have a second spring in Class 5.
Like Xu Sanduo, they forcefully stimulate their self-esteem and just want to get closer to the fighting troops, but their own age and conditions are there.
In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore and chose to leave the army, which was actually not the best ending.
"Now that I'm here, let's have some fun and completely overturn the coward's paradise. Lao Ma and the others don't have to leave. It seems like a good challenge."
Looking at the messy dormitory in front of him, Jackie Chan felt that he had found a new direction.
