Dragon gives birth to nine sons, with different strengths and weaknesses.

Compared with Hou Xun and Hou Ke, Hou Yi, Hou Shu, and Hou Lu really have no talent.

After following Hou Zhipu to move to Shandong, they could only start as low-level officials.

After a few years, after the assessment by the Human Resources Department, their evaluation was... mediocre.

He is very diligent in his work, but his ability is average.

Such people can just hang around at the grassroots level and have no future.

Fortunately, the Hou family is extraordinary and Hou Xun still exists, so they will be rich and prosperous for a long time.

Hou Shu is a small section chief in the Linqing Civil Affairs Bureau. He has no hope of promotion and is busy with work. At least I have something to do, which makes me feel more contented than before when I had nothing to do.

The only thing he couldn't accept was his wife Zhan Jiangmei.

There is no doubt that a woman who can marry into the Hou family is not bad in knowledge.

Husbands and wives are very interesting, there is always a sharp contrast.

If one side is weak, the other must be strong.

Hou Shu has a warm-tempered character who can't be beaten with three sticks, but Zhan Jiangmei is much stronger.

After coming to Shandong, I felt the atmosphere of women's liberation here. Seeing women such as Xu Ruolin and Wang Xiuqin doing things with great success and making extraordinary achievements, Zhan Jiangmei couldn't sit still.

She took the initiative to leave the house and join in the work.

In this era, there are very few people who are educated and literate, and even fewer women are educated and literate.

Zhan Jiangmei has a strong personality, works hard, and is quite resourceful. As a result, she quickly stood out and was promoted as a matter of course.

Just thinking that he was still the section chief while his wife became the director, Hou Shu felt that the future was dark.

Like the five Hou Xun brothers, the five Hou Fangyu brothers are also different.

Especially his eldest brother Hou Fanglai was so poor at studying that he didn't even pass the examination to become a scholar.

Hou Xun got angry many times because of this, and even took time to teach him personally, but he just couldn't see any progress in his studies.

After a long time, Hou Xun gave up on Hou Fanglai after seeing Hou Fangyu's literary talent and extraordinary talent.

Hou Fanglai also knew that he had disappointed his father and was very depressed for a long time. But he was not a good student, so he couldn't do anything even if he tried hard.

At a time of confusion and embarrassment, the new army was recruiting.

Hou Fanglai gritted his teeth and felt that if he was not good at writing, could he also be good at martial arts?

So he signed up to join the new army.

By the time Hou Xun found out, he was already a soldier of the New Army.

After that, Hou Fanglai participated in several battles one after another.

Like Shen Xun, there are very few people in the army who understand culture like him. Therefore, he is always much faster than others in learning combat skills and fighting techniques.

There are no absolute idiots in this world, only misplaced talents.

Hou Fanglai failed to study, but ended up being a soldier like a fish in water.

In just three years of joining the army, he has grown from an ordinary soldier to a company-level officer.

Now he is the regimental officer of the 42nd Regiment of the 17th Brigade of the 8th Division.

It happened that the 42nd Regiment was recently transferred to Linqing, and Hou Fanglai had not been home for a long time, so he asked for leave to reunite with his family.

However, there were many tasks in the army, and his vacation only lasted three days, so he had to rush back.

Today is a big day for the 42nd Regiment.

Because their regiment will be the first unit in the army to change to new military uniforms.

Hou Fanglai had just come back to report when he was called to the regiment headquarters. When he got here, he realized that Zuo Mengeng had also arrived.

Not only Zuo Mengeng is here, but Huang Zongxi, Liu Yiyuan, Zhang Yan, Wang Xiuqin and other military elders are all here.

The war has subsided recently, and all units of the New Army are resting and recuperating. Zuo Menggeng is rarely free and begins to focus on the internal construction of the army.

Of course he must carefully supervise such a major event as the entire army changing uniforms.

"Are all the uniforms in place?"

Wang Xiuqin said hurriedly: "It was delivered yesterday and can be sent out at any time."

Zuo Mengeng smiled and said: "Minister Wang's ability to do things is really reassuring."

Wang Xiuqin laughed and didn't think it was a compliment.

"Your commander-in-chief commands us as if we are just donkeys. Who among us dares to neglect you?"

A group of senior generals laughed loudly, making the young people around them envious.

When will they be able to talk and laugh like the elders?

Zuo Mengeng looked at Ma Yunfeng, the leader of the 42nd Regiment who was as obedient as a quail.

"We're just here to take a look. You can handle the distribution of military uniforms yourself."

Ma Yunfeng stood up quickly.

"yes."

He found Hou Fanglai and ordered: "Officer Hou, please pass the order and the whole regiment must assemble."

In the blink of an eye, more than 1,300 people from the 42nd Regiment gathered on the school grounds.

The entire regiment had already known about the change of military uniforms. The soldiers were talking a lot, looking forward to what the new military uniforms would look like.

Seeing a group of elders watching the ceremony, Ma Yunfeng was unusually nervous. I took deep breaths several times in a row. Only then can we stand firmly on the podium.

"This time the entire army is going to change to new military uniforms, and our regiment is the first. What is this? This is the high command's recognition of us..."

Huang Zongxi couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

"This Ma Yunfeng is really good at pulling off the tiger's skin and raising the banner. Let them be the first to change, just because their group is in Linqing."

Zuo Mengeng watched it with great interest.

"Such a speech is very good. It can inspire everyone's morale and sense of honor. This shows that Ma Yunfeng is very capable and is a good candidate to be a political commissar."

"Green Gourd Sword Fairy"

Huang Zongxi shook his head and said to himself: "He has to work hard if he wants to reach my level."

While the elders were chatting and laughing, the distribution of military uniforms had already begun.

Beside Ma Yunfeng and others, new military uniforms have already piled up. The soldiers lined up and came forward one after another to receive their items.

But when they got it, everyone was surprised.

It’s not that something is bad.

But there are too many things.

This time the military uniform is replaced, along with all supporting items.

Each soldier will receive two sets of regular uniforms, two sets of training uniforms, a pair of leather shoes, two pairs of training shoes, and a pair of combat boots. One new backpack, one new tactical strap and two new belts.

Among them, what Zuo Menggeng is most proud of is his training shoes.

Taking into account the soldiers' daily training, the shoes receive the highest level of wear and tear. Combat boots, on the other hand, are all made of leather and are expensive. They are too expensive to use for daily training, and they are not suitable for daily training.

So Zuo Mengeng thought about it and came up with a new type of training shoes.

This kind of training shoe is made of canvas as the surface and leather as the bottom, which are mixed together. Soft and comfortable. The cost is cheap and is more conducive to the training and use of new recruits.

But if future generations see it, they will definitely be surprised.

Isn't this Jiefang shoes?
