Chapter 46 Examination
The next day, Zhou Lin went to the Artillery Division with Zheng Sanfu.

The Artillery Division is on the outskirts of Shanghai.

The terrain in the suburbs of Shanghai is flat and open, which is suitable for the display of superior firepower.Therefore, the artillery positions are in the suburbs.

In terms of artillery confrontation, the artillery firepower of the national army is not as good as that of the Japanese army.

The medium-range and short-range artillery of the Japanese army dominated. They not only suppressed the artillery of the national army with field artillery, but also destroyed the heavy machine guns of the national army with infantry flat-fire artillery.

In this way, the heavy firepower of the national army will not be effective.Relying on infantry alone, the losses are very large.

The gate of the artillery infantry division is heavily guarded.If you are [-] meters away from the gate, you will be watched by sentries.

Zhou Lin and Zheng Sanfu entered within [-] meters.

The sentry began to shout: "Military important place, idlers are not allowed to enter."

Zheng Sanfu replied loudly, "I'm here to find my brother."

Sentinel: "Who is your brother?"

"Zheng Dafu."

"what's your name?"

"Zheng Sanfu."

After hearing this, the sentinel pointed to a place 50 meters away. "Stand there and wait for news."

Zhou Lin and Zheng Sanfu came to the designated place.sit on the floor.

The sentinel's eyes flicked over them both now and then.

After more than half an hour, a person came out.

This person is Zheng Sanfu's flip flop.The two look exactly alike.

It's just that Zheng Sanfu is younger.After all, he is a chef and eats better than others.

Seeing the person coming out, Zheng Sanfu rushed up and hugged the person: "Brother, you make it easy for me to find!"

Zheng Dafu's eyes turned red all of a sudden.This is the first time he has seen his family after five years in the army.

"Third brother, are mother and father okay?"

"Mother is fine! Dad's feet are very rheumatic. When it rains, his feet hurt. By the way, brother, mother asked me to bring you lotus root sweets."

After finishing speaking, Zheng Sanfu took out a bag of candy.

Lotus Root Fragrant Candy, a local specialty of Zhijiang County, formerly known as "Mint Crisp", is produced in Zhijiang.Production began in the Qing Dynasty and has a history of more than 100 years.The above white sugar is the main ingredient, and vegetable oil, cream, etc. are used as auxiliary materials.The production is fine, the craftsmanship is unique, the shape is exquisite, the color is white like jade, it is rectangular, and the inside is like the heart of a lotus root. Each has 16 main holes and 9 auxiliary holes. The holes are connected and arranged neatly, about 80 pieces per kilogram.It has the characteristics of crispy and sweet, melting in the mouth, relieving heat and refreshing, easy to carry, etc., and is very popular among people.

In fact, Zheng Sanfu did not bring this thing from home.

After Zhou Lin asked about Zheng Dafu's favorite taste, he asked someone to bring it from Nanjing.

When Zheng Dafu was a child, he liked to eat lotus heart gum candy the most.

Sure enough, when Zheng Dafu saw it, he immediately grabbed one and put it in his mouth.

While eating, we shed tears.

When he cried, Zheng Sanfu also cried.

Zhou Lin had no choice but to go forward and comfort him: "It will be good if we meet! Today is a day of great joy, and you should be happy."

Zheng Dafu nodded and wiped his tears with his sleeve.After that, he wiped away the tears for Zheng Sanfu.Said: "Yes, you should be happy. Who is this?"

Zheng Sanfu hurriedly introduced, "I met fellow villagers when I was working in Huaihua. We came to Shanghai from Huaihua together."

It is said that he is a fellow from Huaihua, and he came to Shanghai with his third brother.Zheng Dafu immediately became intimate with Zhou Lin. "Just follow Sanfu and call me big brother."

Zhou Lin hastily called out big brother. "Brother, my surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Mu."

"Good name, your parents want you to be a great talent."

Zhou Lin sighed and said, "What kind of talent is he? That's just working in a restaurant."

Zheng Dafu looked at Zheng Sanfu: "Third brother, what are you doing outside?"

"Brother, what else can I do? Just work in a restaurant. In Nanjing, we met a good man who taught us the craft. After we finished our studies, Shuangmu and I came to Shanghai and came to see you."

Zheng Dafu asked: "Have you learned to cook? Which of the eight major dishes?"

Zheng Sanfu said: "I am from Hunan, so of course I have learned Hunan cuisine."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Dafu pulled Zheng Sanfu and Zhou Lin into the barracks.

The sentinel stopped Zheng Dafu: "Deputy company commander Zheng. The chief of staff has explained that visiting relatives is not allowed during this period."

Zheng Dafu was not happy: "My younger brother is a chef, a chef of Hunan cuisine. Can you come in?"

Upon hearing this, the sentinel said, "You can enter, but you must be guaranteed. If something goes wrong, the guarantor will be responsible."

"No problem! I will guarantee my two younger brothers."

The sentinel didn't say anything, and took out a form for the two to fill out.That's what let them in.

After entering, Zhou Lin discovered that the artillery division had a huge territory.Three times larger than the Seventh Division.

Maybe it's where the artillery needs to be big.Maybe it's the suburbs, and the land isn't worth much.

According to the regulations, those who take part in the examination must be gathered together.There will be a competition, and in the end, the top three in the competition will be distributed to the deputy chief of staff as their chef. No.4 to No.8 will be assigned to each regiment and serve as the chef for each regiment leader.

This kind of thing doesn't happen in the general army.Just like the Seventh Division, there is a canteen for lieutenant-level officers and a canteen for school-level officers.

But in the artillery division, it doesn't work.

Many low-ranking officers and soldiers are not from Hunan.They couldn't get used to the spiciness of Hunan cuisine.

Senior military officers are from Hunan.They can't be bothered.

In this way, the canteen will be difficult to manage.Take care of high-level officers, and low-level officers and soldiers will not have the energy to train and fight if they don't eat well.

Take care of junior officers and soldiers, senior officers will be turned upside down.

Finally, the teacher made a decision.The dishes cooked in the cafeteria are mainly Zhejiang cuisine, Jiangsu cuisine or Shanghai cuisine.

Those high-ranking military officers can make minor mistakes.That is, each group has a Hunan cuisine stove.

Senior officers, you can go to Xiaozao for dinner.You can also go to the dining hall to eat.

In this way, the chef is not enough.

So, someone came up with an idea to recruit chefs borrowed from Hunan.

Chefs who are not borrowed from Hunan don’t want it, even if your Hunan cuisine is good, they won’t accept it.

On this point, the Hunan soldiers are still very united.

In order to ensure the integrity of the Xiang people.Every candidate must have a guarantor.If problems are found, the guarantor shall be responsible.

Through conversation, Zhou Lin knew that Zheng Dafu was in the second regiment.The guard who was the deputy division commander was finally promoted.

After sending Zhou and Lin to the logistics office, Zheng Dafu left.

This is the test site, and other people are not allowed to stay.

A soldier from the logistics department brought Zhou and Lin to a barracks.

Pointing to the big long shop, he said, "You choose a seat. You come first, you can choose. Those who come later have no choice."

After Zhou Lin thanked, he chose the two seats at the front.The seat is next to the window, so the air circulates quickly.It's the best seat in the room.

After choosing the seats, the soldiers brought two old quilts and threw them to Zhou Lin. "Each person has only one quilt. If it's cold, two people can work together, one mattress and one bed cover."

In addition to the quilt, only a porcelain jar was given for brushing teeth and drinking water.There was also an old towel.
