I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 573: Focus on the Army and Look at the Three Armies

In accordance with Chief of Staff Xu's request, after Chen Jun came out of the headquarters, he directly hailed a taxi on the road.

Go straight to Pengcheng's home.

In the car, Chen Jun called Bian Tao, Zhu Haibing, Lao Song, and the old staff officer Cai Jintao respectively.

Tell them clearly to stop the review of the artillery brigade immediately.

The subsequent matters are no longer something that their Supervisory Department can interfere with.

Next.

If we follow the clues, I'm afraid a large number of people will be found out.

He asked Bian Tao and his men to withdraw all their people immediately and not even watch the fun.

Just keep your head down and go back to the unit and wait for the new director to report in.

There is a reason why Chen Jun gave such a warning.

He is not stupid. Although the Supervision Department did not contribute this time and did not find out anything, it was all provided by Huang Zhihao.

In fact, if he doesn't provide it, it will be difficult for the Supervisory Department to carry out its work, but the problem is that people outside don't know about these things.

On the surface.

This review was carried out by the Supervision Department, and he, as the director, personally delivered the self-report materials to the headquarters.

If Chen Jun leaves, the entire supervisory department will be leaderless and no one will be in charge. If someone is not arranged to take over as director as soon as possible, there will probably be another disturbance.

The work of the director of the agency, compared with Huang Zhihao's continuous airborne experience and Huang Brigade's series of self-protection operations, also made Chen Jun truly realize how deep the water in this kind of unit is.

"call!!"

Chen Jun, who was sitting in the back seat of the taxi, let out a long breath and turned his head to look out the window at the bustling city with tall buildings lined up one after another and the streets bustling with people.

But he couldn't completely calm down.

Before, Chen Jun was wondering why the Minister of Training Department Li Dongge and Political Commissar Zhao Puhang went to the Southern Theater Command to watch the aircraft carrier launching ceremony.

It's not normal for both of them to leave the unit.

No matter what, such a large training department must have someone in charge.

In addition, the commander-in-chief of the 71st Army, Wang Zhongyi, brought Feng Qiuhu to attend the ceremony so early.

On the contrary, the commander-in-chief of the 72nd Army, Liu Jinwei, did not go to the unit until he went to the military headquarters.

But Commander-in-Chief Liu was not seen at the meeting today. At first, Chen Jun did not pay much attention to these details.

He was only thinking about how happy the navy must be this time, finally getting proud of themselves, but he never noticed that this might be a deliberate arrangement by the higher-ups.

During his review, all the undercurrents had already begun to surge, and he was the only one who did not understand the meaning of them.

Ever since Captain Feng was so generous as to select more than 179 veterans from the th Brigade for him, the pulling rope of this big net has quietly appeared in his hands.

Looking at the personnel transfers in recent times and the situation of each unit, Chen Jun finally realized that something was wrong.

Of course, this was only possible because Xu Hesheng had a semi-public heart-to-heart talk with him, which allowed him to figure it out.

Be aware of these.

Chen Jun secretly spat in his heart: "Fuck, he really knows how to play."

For someone like him who has been in a field unit for a long time, it is not easy to adapt to the new situation when he suddenly goes to the headquarters.

On the way back.

After calming down a little, Chen Jun called Li Haiyao and briefly told her about the registration for the Hongdu Military Graduate Class.

Li Haiyao, who received the call, was not surprised, because she had known that Chen Jun would go to class after the artillery brigade issue was resolved.

I just didn't expect it to be resolved so quickly.

She took leave from work and returned home early to pack up. As for the kid Li Wujie, Chen Jun also kept him in the Training and Supervision Department.

Just follow Bian Tao first.

After all, it's a military graduate class, and such things are too grand for a colonel, let alone a major general, who can always have a serviceman with him.

What's more, the current Chen Jun is neither the chief of staff of the 179th Brigade nor the director of the theater's direct training and operations supervision, so it is even more inappropriate for him to lead service soldiers.

Whenever he thought of this, Chen Jun felt confused.

When the vehicle stopped at the gate of the military family compound, Chen Jun paid the fare and got off. He looked up and took in the familiar environment in front of him, his whole body shrouded in sunlight.

For a moment, Chen Jun really felt tired.

That's right, tiredness.

Ever since I went to the Xijing Army Border Defense Academy and put on the military uniform again, I have been determined to realize my ambitions in the army with the help of military reform.

During this time.

He has experienced training day and night, he has fought for credit with gritted teeth and sweat, and he has also stayed up all night to compile the synthetic training outline.

He has always been seen as a man of steel by outsiders. At this moment, he stood at the gate of the family compound, with his back to the bustling traffic behind him, standing in the scorching sun.

This person who never complains of being tired finally felt a little tired.

Even his back isn't as straight as before.

There's no reason for this feeling.

Even Chen Jun himself didn't know why. It might be because he didn't have any position and was just an empty military rank.

If you lose your position, you will also lose the direction and motivation to move forward.

This feeling is very bad, and it makes people feel uneasy or confused.

"Chen Jun!!"

Just as Chen Jun was stunned and staring at the family building in front of him, a firm yet gentle voice sounded.

Li Haiyao, who had taken leave and arrived home early, walked out of the community with soft steps.

The two have been together for a long time, and Li Haiyao can be said to be very familiar with the person beside her.

Chen Jun's sharpness disappeared, and Li Haiyao noticed something was wrong at the first moment.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Li Haiyao took Chen Jun's arm and looked up at him with some worry in her eyes.

"No, it's okay."

In order not to make Li Haiyao worry, Chen Jun quickly recovered and laughed, "Now that the artillery brigade matter is over, I'm going to Hongdu too."

"That's nothing. Hongdu is not far from here, more than 700 kilometers away. Military graduate classes have Sundays. I can go to see you, and you can come back too."

Li Haiyao has now been promoted to major, and his salary plus scientific research allowance can reach 16,000 to 17,000 yuan per month.

With the subsidies for special talents, Colonel Chen Jun's salary is only higher than Li Haiyao's but not lower than hers, so the living conditions of the two are quite good.

Therefore, they can be romantic once in a while and learn from other long-distance couples without any financial burden.

"Let's go home first."

Chen Jun smiled, tacitly agreeing to Li Hai and Li Haiyao's proposal.

"Well, let's go home."

"By the way, when I got home just now, my uncle called and told me to call you back when he sees you."

"Uncle?"

When Chen Jun heard this, he was stunned.

The uncle that Li Haiyao mentioned obviously could not be the principal of Rong'an No. 1 High School in his hometown, but Li Hongtao, the chief of staff of the Western Theater Command.

The old man's eldest son.

"Didn't uncle say anything?" Chen Jun was a little curious. After all, apart from work matters, they only contacted each other during holidays.

No matter how you look at it, he, the niece's husband, is half an outsider, and no one would normally look for him unless necessary.

"No." Li Haiyao shook her head: "My uncle must be busy. He called me just now and heard that you haven't come back yet, so he just told you to call me back when you come back."

"Okay, let's go back then."

Whether it was because of the elders or the leader, this phone call was equivalent to an order.

Chen Jun didn't dare to hesitate.

The two of them hurried back home. This time, he didn't plan to visit his parents again, because leaving for Hongdu was rather sudden, and if the two elders knew about it, they would inevitably think too much.

Anyway, he is not at home, it’s not a rare thing, it’s okay to talk about it later.

While Chen Jun was home, he was busy changing his clothes. It was already very hot in May, and he was sweating after running outside for most of the day.

During this period, Li Haiyao walked to the room, closed the door gently, took out her cell phone and called a cadre she knew in the logistics department of the 179th Brigade.

Chen Jun did not notice Li Haiyao's actions. After taking off his clothes, he quickly took a warm shower, immediately changed into casual clothes, took out his mobile phone and walked to the balcony.

I dialed my uncle Li Hongtao’s cell phone number.

After a few rings in the receiver, Li Hongtao's slightly low voice was heard.

"Chen Jun."

"arrive!!"

"Uncle, I'm Chen Jun."

He rarely communicates via personal phone, so he seemed a little reserved at the moment.

On the other hand, Li Hongtao, sitting in the office of the Tianfu Theater Command Headquarters, leaned back in his chair comfortably and said with a faint smile: "I heard that you have done a good job in the recent review work of the Supervision Department."

"How is it? Did Old Man Xu tell you where to go next?"

Hearing the easy-going voice from the other side, Chen Jun's original restraint gradually relaxed.

"Uncle, Chief of Staff Xu told me to report to the military graduate class at Hongdu Army Academy."

"Yeah, not bad."

Li Hongtao obviously understood the situation. He nodded and said, "Hongdu is still your eastern region. The military graduate class organized by the Army Academy this time is hosted by the theater joint army headquarters."

"It is mainly to improve the military quality of officers in batches. The fact that you were assigned to go there means that you will be given a big task next."

"I know about this graduate class. It's not full yet. I originally wanted to squeeze a few people in to study with me, but your Commander Shen rejected me."

"Since you can go, you must seize this opportunity."

"This class involves many plans from the theater and the Army Headquarters, and covers a wide range of subjects. I heard that it includes military strategy, campaign science, military command, military logistics, and military equipment."

"It also includes some specific military professional degrees."

"You go there, you have to work harder."

Chen Jun's mouth twitched when he heard Li Hongtao's words. He remembered them very clearly.

When Chief of Staff Xu gave him the report letter, he definitely did not say any of this, and he also told him very clearly that his name was already on the list in the class, and it didn't matter whether he attended classes or not, as long as he could pass the exam.

With this scale, it doesn't seem like it's okay to go or not. He was thinking about waiting for the review to be over, and asking what exam content he needed to prepare for.

Who would have thought that even this was a lie made up by Chief of Staff Xu to deceive him?
In fact, this military graduate class is not just a formality like before, but a training institution specially established by the theater joint army headquarters?
Damn, in order to make himself concentrate more on inspecting the artillery brigade, Chief of Staff Xu really did everything he could.

Such a big thing, but as the person involved, I was kept in the dark before setting off.

Depend on! ! !
Chen Jun just wanted to swear now. He asked himself that although he was not a very vicious and dirty person, he at least knew some tricks.

Compared with Xu Hesheng this time, he is definitely at the level of not even graduating from elementary school.

If Li Hongtao hadn't reminded him, he would have still been thinking like this and attended this key training.

Li Hongtao, who was sitting in the office on the other side, obviously couldn't empathize with Chen Jun's feelings.

After he finished his instructions, he heard no movement from Chen Jun, so he simply continued: "Chen Jun."

"arrive!!"

"I know something about your artillery brigade, and I can roughly guess your situation."

"Do you feel like you have no direction to go?"

Read more latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

"No, no."

When Chen Jun heard his uncle ask this, he was shocked.

He quickly shook his head to deny it. What a joke! How could Li Hongtao know about this?

Unfortunately, he still underestimated the shrewdness of the older generation.

Hearing Chen Jun's denial, Li Hongtao snorted coldly, and his tone changed from casual to sharp.

"No? Let me tell you, Chen Jun, I've walked more roads and met more people than you."

"Do you think I don't know your little thoughts?"

"You, the military generation, were born in a good era, and you can't stand even the slightest setback or experience."

"Your path was too smooth, so smooth that you lost your direction, your original intention, and even the most basic confidence as a soldier."

"There are still many tasks in the east waiting for you younger generations to complete. The plan of two heavy brigades in one military region has been approved by the headquarters council."

"The future development of the army, navy, air force, and space rocket forces is definitely no longer a fantasy. You will truly see an unprecedented prosperity."

"Xiao Chen, cheer up."

"You still have a long way to go. This military graduate class is just an external announcement. You must take it seriously."

"Only in this way can we old guys rest assured that you, the younger generation, can shoulder the responsibility of national defense."

"When you graduate, your personal development should have been decided by the higher-ups."

"I don't ask you for anything, but at least you should have the courage to base yourself on the Army and look at the three armed forces. A new era has arrived."

"You have to understand that narrow vision and pattern are no longer suitable for the current situation."

"We must also remember that the mission of the military is to revive the motherland. It has not been an easy journey to where we are today."

"This road is like sailing against the current, there is no room for carelessness."

"I'm not trying to scare you, nor am I trying to warn you. This is an order. This is my request as a senior. Do you understand?"

"clear!!"

Chen Jun perked up and responded in a resounding voice.

"Louder, I don't hear any hope in your answer."

Li Hongtao in the office had unknowingly stood up from his chair with a very serious expression.

"Yes, Commander, I've got it in mind!!"

"I will never let you down."

This time, Chen Jun's voice was not much different from before, but his momentum was much stronger.

"Hmph, that's best."

"But it's not a question of not disappointing me. Ask yourself, ask your heart, and ask the uniform you wear."

"How to go on in the future depends on yourself, not on others to remind you."

"So be it."

Li Hongtao hung up the phone without waiting for Chen Jun's response.

Chen Jun was left standing alone on the balcony, deep in thought.

In fact, with this phone call, was it really because Li Hongtao heard about the artillery brigade that he was able to judge that Chen Jun was not in a good condition?

No, no, no, it’s not that amazing.

Li Hongtao is the chief of staff of the Western Theater Command. No matter how well-informed he is, it is impossible for him to get a detailed report so quickly.

This was also what Xu Hesheng informed in advance. The matters concerning the artillery brigade, especially Huang Zhihao's matter, plus Chen Jun, who had been busy for six or seven years, were suddenly relieved of all his responsibilities.

That kind of confusion about the future is bound to happen to young people, even the older generation will inevitably face similar situations.

But this is just like the reorganization of a unit. If a unit wants to reorganize, it must go through certain pains.

Can't escape, can't avoid.

The same goes for people.

It is impossible to sing all the way without any setbacks. Some confusion at turning points and the price of growth are all something we have to experience.

Rather than saying that Xu Hesheng was unable to transfer anyone to the artillery brigade in response to the headquarters' request, it would be more accurate to say that this was a test for Chen Jun itself.

Sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for people to be too successful, too confident, and lack reverence.

More polish isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

So in the final analysis, this phone call between Chen Jun and Xu Hesheng was still part of Xu Hesheng's plan.

However, Old Man Xu couldn't ask Li Zhenhua to come forward, so he could only pull out the old man's eldest son to act as the person who enlightened him.

Chen Jun listened to the busy tone coming from the microphone, he sighed, and felt a little touched inside.

But the fatigue he just felt was indeed swept away, and in return he was filled with a burning desire to fight.

Chen Jun had the courage to start over, but he was young and inexperienced after all.

What he lacks is a mentor who can give him a timely warning.

"Xiao Chen, it's time to eat."

While Chen Jun was holding the phone in his hand in a daze, Li Haiyao behind him brought a bowl of vegetable noodle soup and placed it on the coffee table in the living room.

Hearing the voice, Chen Jun quickly adjusted his state, put on a more relaxed smile on his face, turned around and said: "I'm really hungry. I didn't get any food in Jinling at noon."

"I forgot about eating during the long journey back here."

"Well, then you eat first. I'll go check on my parents."

Li Haiyao took off her apron, changed into a shirt dress, picked up her handbag and said with a smile: "I will be back later in the evening, and may have dinner at my parents' house. You can rest for a while after dinner."

"I have already booked the flight to Hongdu. I will take you there tomorrow morning."

"Row!!"

Chen Jun got up and sent Li Haiyao to the door. Her parents had just arrived and she was worried that they would not be able to adapt to life here, so she visited them often.

At this time, Chen Jun didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, it was inappropriate for him to follow.

For someone like him who is often away from home, if he suddenly goes back recently, who knows what his parents will be worried about.

Sitting on the sofa, Chen Jun ate noodles and silently thought about the upcoming trip to Hongdu.

According to what my uncle said just now, this military graduate class will probably be another large gathering of officers.

But what is different from the initial training is that this time there are no people from the five major war zones, but only officers from the eastern region. I guess I will meet a lot of acquaintances again.

Just when Chen Jun was thinking deeply, there was a sudden knock on the door.

The force was so strong that it almost broke the door.

But Chen Jun was so busy thinking that he didn't pay attention to the details. He thought that Li Haiyao had forgotten to take something and came back.

But when he walked to the door and opened it, he saw that it was not Li Haiyao outside, but He Yingtao and Yang Chuanzhou who were in casual clothes.

Chen Jun was not surprised that these two people knew his home. After all, there was a custom of burning the bottom of the pot when moving, and they had come here to eat before.

But how did they know he was back?
The key point is that Fatty He was holding a roast chicken and pickles, and Old Yang was holding four bottles of Yanghe. It was obvious that they came prepared.

He seemed very satisfied with Chen Jun's surprised look.

Fatty He chuckled, raised the roast chicken in his hand and said, "Don't be surprised, Lao Chen. My sister-in-law notified Xiao He from the logistics department, and then Xiao He came to tell me to come over after get off work."

"It just so happens that Lao Yang, that bastard, isn't on duty either, so let's come together."

"come in."

When Chen Jun heard that it was Li Haiyao who notified him, he felt warm inside. He also knew that he suddenly went to his parents' house at this time to give himself some time to spend with his comrades.

Fatty He was not a particular person. He walked into the house carrying a bag of vegetables, put them on the coffee table with a "pop", and the first thing he did was to close the windows and turn on the air conditioner.

Maybe fat people are afraid of heat.

"Lao Chen, this is the food we bought from the Northeastern restaurant we often go to. Just make do with it."

"Okay, this is quite rich."

Chen Jun rummaged through the take-away box and saw that it contained some home-cooked dishes. A smile appeared on his face.

There's nothing to make do with for soldiers. When I was in the barracks, as long as I wasn't on duty on Sundays, I would bring some dishes to the dormitory and call a few company commanders to have fun together.

Although there is a prohibition on alcohol in the military, soldiers are not made of steel, and there is nothing wrong with getting together occasionally on Sundays without getting drunk.

Of course, this is limited to the company level and above, where the management of soldiers is a little stricter. Some old non-commissioned officers will go to the soldier service center to secretly drink beer to satisfy their cravings. This is a common occurrence.

"Old Chen, I heard from the Political Commissar that you are reviewing the artillery brigade in Huzhou. Is there any result?"

Yang Chuanzhou picked up the food and clinked glasses with his cup.

Chen Jun did not say much about the censorship, nor did he intend to mention the storm that was about to arise.

Although this matter has nothing to do with the 179th Brigade and does not involve confidentiality, Chen Jun himself only has a vague understanding of it and is unaware of many details.

It's hard to explain.

Besides, why bring up such things? It will affect the mood of the comrades-in-arms gathering.

As they drank and chatted, the three of them talked about the current situation in the brigade and the development of the 92nd Brigade led by Lao Zhao.

All in all, everything went well.

The three of them could drink quite a lot, and they kept drinking until around nine in the evening.

Chen Jun himself also had to pack up and set off.
