Capital International Airport.The Boeing 747 landed on the runway and slowly taxied to the tarmac.In the waiting hall, many soldiers gathered.From generals to soldiers, this is a rare big scene.A large banner hung on their backs, with the words "Welcome to Erna? The triumphant return of the Chinese team in the Assault International Scout Competition."Chief of Staff Liu beamed with joy, and Xiao Qin was standing beside him, talking to the old man.Liu Fangfang and He Xiaoyu stood among the welcoming female soldiers holding flowers and wearing military uniforms, talking closely.He Xiaoyu asked: "Which number are they this time?"

"Chen Yong's team is third, Zhang Lei and Xiaofei are fifth." Liu Fangfang said, "The final score of the Chinese team is No.3 in total. However, Chen Yong won the highest honor of the competition, the Karev Warrior Trophy '; Zhang Lei won the 'Best Military Skills Performance Award', and the Norwegian Minister of Defense presented him with a saber." He Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Look at your fun! It's as if you got that knife!"

"You Xiaofei is also good, his English report has been listed as a model by the organizing committee of the competition!" Liu Fangfang said. "Yo! Can't tell, hey, his English is so good?" He Xiaoyu was overjoyed. "Military English is different from what we usually learn and speak." Liu Fangfang said with a smile.A silver-white Audi stopped at the entrance of the hall. Lin Qiuye got out of the car, followed by Fang Zijun in military uniform.Fang Zijun's face turned pale, holding a bouquet of flowers.She was a little dizzy, and Lin Qiuye looked at her: "What's wrong with you?" "It's okay." Fang Zijun smiled, and walked in with Lin Qiuye. "Sister Zijun!" He Xiaoyu held up flowers and shouted, "Aren't you on duty?" Fang Zijun went over with a smile: "I transferred the shift, I have to pick up such a big thing." Liu Fangfang smiled and held Fang Zijun's hand Hand: "Sister Zijun!" Seeing Fang Zijun, Xiao Qin turned pale and lowered her head.Fang Zijun looked at Liu Fangfang with staggered eyes, and posed her with a collar flower: "Fangfang, you are so beautiful with flowers." Liu Fangfang blushed and lowered her head: "Don't say that, everyone says you are the number one flower in our military region!" Fang Zijun Smiling: "I can't afford it, I'm old! You are married, and the future belongs to you!"

"Are you here to pick up Chen Yong?" He Xiaoyu asked.Fang Zijun said: "Nonsense! If I don't pick up who will Chen Yong pick up?" He Xiaoyu smiled and said nothing.Fang Zijun grabbed Liu Fangfang and said in a low voice, "Fangfang, let me tell you something. You want to treat Zhang Lei well, do you understand?"

Liu Fangfang opened her eyes wide. "Just this one, remember it!" Fang Zijun smiled, patted her on the face and left.Liu Fangfang looked at Fang Zijun's back in a daze.He Xiaoyu waved flowers: "What are you stupid? Here we come! Xiaofei!" "Play music!" The captain of the military band swung his baton, and the "March of the People's Liberation Army" resounded in the hall.He Zhijun and Lei Keming walked out of the passageway among the crowd, leading the well-dressed team members with a smile and beckoning.Chen Yong was holding the "Karev Warrior" trophy, and Zhang Lei walked beside him wearing the "Best Military Skill Performance Award" medal.The female soldiers greeted them and presented flowers to the triumphant warriors.As soon as the female soldiers moved, Fang Zijun appeared behind them.Fang Zijun, holding a bouquet of flowers, is wearing a green military uniform, and his face as white as jade under the military cap is still beautiful and moving.Chen Yong and Zhang Lei saw her almost at the same time.

"Xiaofei!" He Xiaoyu stuffed the flower in his hand and kissed him on the cheek, "You are amazing! You are my pride!" Liu Fangfang stood in front of Zhang Lei and said shyly, "Zhang Lei .” Zhang Lei smiled, still looking at Fang Zijun.Fang Zijun started to walk towards this side, both Chen Yong and Zhang Lei looked at Fang Zijun, Fang Zijun walked up to Chen Yong slowly, put flowers in his arms: "Congratulations." Chen Yong was so excited that he wanted to salute, but the two hands are occupied.In a hurry, he handed the "Karev Warrior" trophy to Fang Zijun: "This is yours!" Fang Zijun blushed and took the warrior trophy.Chen Yong fell to his left hand and slapped Fang Zijun to attention.The flashes flickered.Zhang Lei staggered his eyes and suppressed his emotions.Liu Xiaofei pulled him, and when he saw Liu Fangfang in front of him, he smiled and said, "Thank you." Liu Fangfang gave him the flower and saluted: "Congratulations!" Zhang Lei returned the salute.

"Look at how thin you are!" Lin Qiuye said to He Zhijun distressedly, and He Zhijun smiled and said, "Oh, what am I? These guys have suffered! This time we won the third place, next time Be sure to take the first place!"

"Next time, it doesn't matter how old you are!" Lin Qiuye scolded.Liu Yongjun rubbed his hands: "Is your affectionate talk enough?" He Zhijun hurriedly saluted: "Boss!" Lei Keming shouted: "Assemble——"

The team members stood in a row with big rucksacks on their backs and flowers, looking to the right and looking ahead to report the count.Liu Yongjun's eyes were piercing: "Comrades! Although you did not win the championship when you went to Estonia, you let the world see the demeanor of our special forces of the Chinese Army! Newspapers, radio stations and TV stations all over the world are reporting on you, calling you ' The speedy Chinese Legion', the 'Oriental Sharpshooter Legion'! You have won honor for the motherland and the army! We are here to congratulate you!" Liu Yongjun saluted, and the team members returned the salute.

"You are all good, good!" Liu Yongjun nodded, "The ranking is not the most important thing, what is important is that you let the world know the special forces of the Chinese Army! You are the pride of the motherland, the pride of the army, and the pride of the entire Chinese army. The pride of the special forces and reconnaissance units!" Everyone looked at him silently. "I hope you will continue to work hard and achieve greater brilliance in your future work! My words are over!" Liu Yongjun saluted and said amid applause, "The old chief who is about to go to the Beijing Cadre Rest Center to recuperate will speak."

The old man stepped forward and looked at them with a smile: "I don't have anything more to say. Liu Yongjun is so good at talking, he said everything I have to say." Everyone laughed. "How much wind and rain you have gone through from nothing to letting the world know you!" The old man sighed, "Now the world knows that China has such an army special force. You must keep your responsibilities and missions in mind. keep going!"

"Don't forget the national humiliation! Remember the mission!" The team members shouted. "The four graduating students of the Army Academy who participated in the Erna? Assault International Scout Competition this time have been studied by the military region and the Army Academy, and all of them will enter the special brigade! And they will serve as important grassroots combat command positions!" Liu Yongjun shouted explain.Everyone applauds.Zhang Lei and Liu Xiaofei looked at each other, smiled proudly and applauded.Fang Zijun was also applauding while holding the warrior trophy, with a knowing smile on his face and tears rolling down his face.Zhang Lei's gaze turned to Fang Zijun, and the moment their eyes met, Fang Zijun avoided it.

The largest private room in Nanhai Fishing Village was booked out by Mr. Liu of Huaming Group early on. The manager on duty specifically instructed Mr. Liu to explain that this is a distinguished guest, and no one should neglect it.After nightfall, when the guests arrived, the waiter stared dumbfounded at a group of dark-faced soldiers walking into the magnificent hall. There were not only middle and high-ranking officers like senior colonels and colonels, but most of them were captains, lieutenants, and even Two are sergeants.The manager on duty was also taken aback for a moment, but he still greeted them and led them into the "End of the World" with a smile.Liu Kai and his wife were waiting there early, and when they saw them coming in, they hurriedly stood up to meet them.Liu Xiaofei jumped over: "Dad, Mom, they're all here!"

"Okay! You have completed this task well!" Liu Kaixi smiled, "Sit down quickly! Lao He, you take the first seat. Your wife is negotiating with a client and will be here in a while."

He Zhijun laughed and pulled Liu Kai: "You are the treat, we are the guests! You sit first!" "Let's not be so polite, shall we?" Liu Kai smiled and pulled him over, "Captain Lei sit next to you , I’m sitting here. I’ve worked in a building in a military compound and ate in a cafeteria for several years, and you still tell me about this?” “If someone else invites you, we won’t come!” He Zhijun took off his military cap and handed it to Tian Xiaoniu, “ You old Liu treats guests, I must come! Xiaofei is a good soldier, you have trained well!" "It's still you who are amazing! You beat this kid into a good steel!" Liu Kai smiled and ordered the dishes, "You girl Where?" "On the way!" He Zhijun laughed. "We all grew up watching Xiao Yu, she is a good girl." Liu Kai's wife said with a smile. "Nonsense!" Liu Kai said to her, "I can't even say anything, can He Zhijun's girl be good?" Everyone laughed, Liu Xiaofei laughed and dared not speak, just poured tea for his parents and chiefs.Liu Kai picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "This time, I invite you all to dinner for nothing else—I, a worthless veteran, congratulate you for winning honor for the Chinese army in the world! Come on, Let's have a toast!" Everyone drank.Before the cup was put down, the door opened, and Fang Zijun in military uniform came in: "Hey! Have you drunk all of this? I'm late. A pregnant woman has just been admitted to the hospital. I have to make arrangements before I can come!"

"My big girl is here! — Sit there! Sit there! I've reserved it for you!" He Zhijun pointed to the empty seat next to Chen Yong, "Oh, I said you, an obstetrician, are busy serving pregnant women all day long. When can you be a pregnant woman?"

Everyone roared with laughter.Zhang Lei didn't smile, but he didn't speak either.Fang Zijun smiled embarrassingly, glanced at Zhang Lei from the corner of the eye, walked behind him and sat next to Chen Yong: "I said Uncle He, are you kidding me at such an old age? Are you busy with work?"

"Work belongs to work, this child belongs to child!" He Zhijun laughed, "Chen Yong!" "Here!" Chen Yong stood up.He Zhijun said solemnly: "I have a task for you! Make me a grandfather this year!" Chen Yong was stunned and dared not speak.He Zhijun glared deliberately: "What? Can't it be completed?" Chen Yong looked at Fang Zijun, gritted his teeth: "Report! I promise to complete the task!" "Okay! For my future grandson, I toast you and your wife!" He Zhijun laughed and raised his glass , Chen Yong and Fang Zijun had to stand up and drink.Zhang Lei smiled wryly, and lit a cigarette to calm himself down, but he failed to light it a few times. Liu Xiaofei lit the lighter for him, and said in a low voice, "It's all over, isn't it?"

Zhang Lei took a puff and immersed himself in the smoke: "Yes, it's over..." "Who is bullying our little girl?" Lin Qiuye came in with a smile, "Don't look at me!" Everyone hurriedly stood up: "Sister-in-law!" "Auntie!" He Zhijun laughed loudly: "Oh, I did it!" Lin Qiuye handed the coat to the waiter and walked over with a smile: "You think you will be exonerated if you do it! ! Punish yourself three cups first!" Everyone roared with laughter.He Zhijun asked: "Where is Xiaoyu? Didn't you say you would pick it up?" "Yes, she came with Fangfang. The two of them went to see the sea fish, lobster, and sharks in the hall, and they will come up immediately. These two children regard this place as an aquarium It's time to go to the restaurant!" "Mom, what are you talking about!" He Xiaoyu and Liu Fangfang ran in excitedly in casual clothes. "My three girls are all here today!" He Zhijun laughed, "Okay! Okay! Now there is only my three girls left! We guys are all good, just talk to whoever you like! I will give You make the decision!" "You really can make the decision, Uncle He?" Liu Fangfang asked with a smile. "Hey! Take my army back!" He Zhijun laughed, "Say, I'm in charge!" "He—" Liu Fangfang pointed at Zhang Lei half-jokingly and half-seriously.Zhang Lei, who was smoking a cigarette, was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly: "Don't make fun of me." He Zhijun laughed loudly: "Fancy him? Then you sit next to him! I can tell you, three girls, this He's a thorn in the head! You're sure to make him pissed off, change it, change it!"

"No, I'll choose him." Liu Fangfang smiled and sat next to Zhang Lei generously.He Zhijun didn't look like he was joking, so his eyes straightened: "Where do you sing?" Lin Qiuye hurriedly picked up the wine glass: "Come on! You're drunk without drinking, and I haven't given you a drink when you come back." You're celebrating! Drink!"

Lin Rui and Liu Xiaofei looked at each other, both at the embarrassed Zhang Lei.Liu Fangfang picked up the wine glass: "Zhang Lei, I'll drink this glass with you, do you want to drink it?" Zhang Lei looked at her: "You are obviously provoking me." Liu Fangfang smiled: "It is just provoking you, do you dare to drink it?"

Zhang Lei picked up the wine glass: "There is no word 'fear' in the dictionary of the paratroopers!"Everyone watched, and a smile appeared on the corner of He Zhijun's mouth: "I understand, it's the three girls who came here to pick out their son-in-law! Hehe, I, He Zhijun, is the first captain of the special brigade, not to mention that the three girls in my family will also marry special special forces." The big team is here! I said that none of you guys are idle, huh?" Everyone laughed, but Fang Zijun didn't smile.Chen Yong looked at Fang Zijun and everyone, but he didn't smile much.Zhang Lei smiled and said to Liu Fangfang: "My father has an order. I can't talk about personal affairs before I am a battalion-level cadre. I accept the kindness, but I am really not suitable." Liu Fangfang took a glass of wine without showing any weakness: "My father I have fate, I invite you to a family dinner tomorrow night—I wonder if Lieutenant Zhang Lei has the courage to go to the banquet?" The chief of staff of the military region invited Zhang Lei, a Maotou lieutenant who just graduated, to a family dinner? !Everyone was shocked.Zhang Lei looked at everyone's eyes, and his arrogance was aroused. He raised his glass and said, "I told you - there is no word 'fear' in the dictionary of paratroopers!" The two clinked glasses and drank it down.Everyone was happy, and there was nothing not to be happy about - Zhang Lei is an excellent officer, and it is not uncommon for Chief of Staff Liu to see him as a son-in-law, not to mention that Zhang Lei will soon be a member of the special brigade. There are only advantages and no disadvantages.Fang Zijun's face turned pale.Tian Xiaoniu sat down with his eyes straightened, and said to himself: "I understand."

"What do you understand?" Dong Qiang still didn't understand.Tian Xiaoniu blinked and said, "Dr. Liu came to our special team for Assistant Zhang, and Assistant Zhang worked so hard for someone——I understand."

"Who is it?" Dong Qiang asked curiously.Tian Xiaoniu glared at him: "It's a shame that you are still a city soldier! If you don't understand, forget it! Toast!"

"I don't understand!" Dong Qiang looked innocent. "It's fine if you don't understand, don't dare to talk nonsense!" Tian Xiaoniu said, "If I say it, I will die!" "Is it that serious?" Dong Qiang insisted, "Will you say it? Don't say it I don't think you are a brother!" Tian Xiaoniu glared at him: "You have to ask yourself—who is the least happy to see this table by yourself!" Dong Qiang was puzzled, and immediately lowered his head after taking a look: " Ouch! I didn't ask, I didn't ask anything!" The two little smart soldiers hurriedly got up to toast the heads and sisters-in-law, breaking the hidden dangers that might exist on the field.The atmosphere became lively, but Fang Zijun drank a lot of wine.Zhang Lei didn't talk much, he just drank.Chen Yong was even more speechless, and drank one cup after another.While talking and drinking, the foreman opened the door and came in: "Sir, a gentleman gave it to you."

Everyone was puzzled, and they pushed in to see that it was a well-made whole crocodile. "Which gentleman gave it to you?" Liu Kai asked, he knew it was worth a lot. "Mr. Liu, it's me - Liao Wenfeng." Liao Wenfeng walked in with a bottle of champagne with a smile.President Liu stood up in surprise, and Lin Qiuye also stood up.Liao Wenfeng said with a smile: "This is French Del Bec Rosé Champagne, the 1832 brand. This bottle of wine has a history of 50 years. It was brought to me by a friend from France half a month ago. This bottle of wine is I specially prepared it for the triumphant Chinese special forces warriors." He Zhijun stood up and looked at him wonderingly.
