Chapter 521 Never Compromise
On June 1997, 6, Ye Chen went to Hong Kong City with the guard of honor of the three armed forces and the chorus of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.

On the day they arrived at Hong Kong City, Ye Chen, Ye Chen and the others familiarized themselves with the surrounding environment and took a short rest, and then went with Cheng Jianqiang to meet Lieutenant Colonel Vince, the commander of the British Empire's guard of honor.

As a result, the competition between the two armies also began in secret, and the contact again was relatively harmonious with each other. In Ye Chen's eyes, the atmosphere was much more harmonious than imagined.

But on the second day, Ye Chen realized that he was thinking too much.

Because when entering the venue, the Hong Kong City Police must conduct a security check. Ye Chen and the soldiers of the guard of honor lined up consciously, and then walked into the venue in a very orderly manner. It was the members of the Communist Youth League led by Ye Chen. In an orderly manner, it passed the inspection quickly.

But not long after Ye Chen and the others entered the venue, they saw that the guard of honor soldiers of the British Empire were very lazy. It's crooked, doesn't look like a soldier at all?

What makes people even more angry is that they not only refused to check, but also beat and scolded the police in Hong Kong City in English and awkward Chinese. Perhaps because of their affiliation, the police in Hong Kong City did not fight back much until their It was only after Lieutenant Colonel Vince appeared that he stopped them from accepting the inspection unwillingly, but this scene was filmed by the Hong Kong media.

But the matter did not end like this. When everyone was rehearsing the way to enter the guard of honor, they encountered another problem, that is, the way of walking!

Lieutenant Colonel Vince walked up to Cheng Jianqiang and said, "Cheng, I have now discovered a problem, that is, the pace of our two teams. Through observation, I suggest that the pace must be the standard military pace of our British Empire. Appropriate, this is also an inevitable result, what do you think?"

Cheng Jianqiang immediately objected when he heard the words: "This is absolutely impossible. The pace of our People's Liberation Army is unique to us. On major ceremonial occasions, our People's Liberation Army always follows our own pace. Doesn't Lieutenant Colonel Vince feel that the pace of our PLA is more appropriate for this occasion?"

A soldier next to Lieutenant Colonel Vince also stood up and said in English: "Your pace is backward. Why do we use your pace? The pace of our British Empire is the most noble in the world!"

Cheng Jianqiang smiled and said: "Your army's pace is noble, I can't deny it, I even respect it from the bottom of my heart, but your army's style of work makes me very disappointed, if our army is allowed to execute at such a pace without military discipline For such an important task, I will become a sinner instead, so, Lieutenant Colonel Vince, I suggest that since the pace is unified, the pace of our army is actually more appropriate, what do you think?"

Lieutenant Colonel Vince naturally paid attention to the pace of the Huaxia Guard of Honor before, and he already had a certain idea in his mind about the uniform pace and graceful rhythm.

But in the end, he still refused: "We will discuss this matter later, and then we will start rehearsing for the handover!"

The rehearsal started. During the rehearsal, the guard of honor lined up on the venue with rhythmic footwork, while Ye Chen and the others stood at the place of their military band under the guidance of Cheng Jianqiang.

After Ye Chen and the others rehearsed, they tried to adjust their mentality and adapt to the environment under the arrangement of head Dai Tiancheng.

Ye Chen, on the other hand, looked at the rehearsal formation of the guard of honor guided by Cheng Jianqiang, and he was in a daze for a while.

This time, according to the situation of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center, Cheng Jianqiang made the ceremony team consist of 1 executive captain, 3 flag bearers, and 12 flag bearers from each of the army, navy and air force, a total of 40 people.Cheng Zhiqiang selected these elite soldiers from thousands of guards of honor and personally led the training.

Now is the time to formally review their achievements, because the handover ceremony is held at night, so the previous night training has also become an indispensable training for them.

But then the British soldiers began to look for things, Cheng Jianqiang directly questioned Lieutenant Colonel Vince when he saw this, and then Lieutenant Colonel Vince reconciled and eased the conflict between them. It was a kind of anger that refused to admit defeat, and it seemed extraordinarily nervous.

Some unpleasant words from the British army also came from there. In order not to expand the situation, Cheng Jianqiang asked the soldiers to calm down their emotions. Seeing that there was no reaction, those people finally let it go.

After the rehearsal that day, everyone returned to the residence. Cheng Jianqiang and Vince walked together, what were they discussing?
Ye Chen walked with Zhang Feng and others, looked at these students and said: "Everyone has seen it today! As long as we were cowardly and incompetent and fell behind, what we are waiting for is to be bullied by others, no matter how much you are. Being strong will leave people with a cowardly label, and you can even bully you anytime, anywhere. When our country is strong, those people will naturally not be afraid, but they don't know how strong we are, so we must do our part Power, let them know that in this handover ceremony, we are all soldiers of the People's Liberation Army. Use your loud voice to sing about the future that belongs to New China, and let them and the whole world know that we are not falling behind. Strong, you say, can it be done?"

"can!"

This was a vibrant voice, he broke the silence of the night, and was recorded by the reporters following him.

Lieutenant Colonel Vince, who was talking to Cheng Jianqiang, was also attracted by the voices of these children. He looked towards Ye Chen and said, "A group of very energetic children!"

Cheng Jianqiang said with a smile: "Yes, this is the future of our motherland and the bridge of diplomatic relations between our two countries. I hope we will have more opportunities to communicate with each other in the future."

Lieutenant Colonel Vince said with a smile: "Cheng, I think so too. I have already thought about it. The pace of this step should be based on the pace of our army. Please think about this matter carefully."

After Cheng Jianqiang heard the words, he said solemnly: "Lieutenant Colonel Vince, I also ask you to seriously consider this matter. Our army will never follow the pace of your army. We will never compromise on this matter." , In fact, from the perspective of the scene, our pace is more suitable for this kind of great country etiquette, doesn't Lieutenant Colonel Vince think so?"

Lieutenant Colonel Wen Si left, and he did not give Cheng Jianqiang the final answer.

"Now we have to adapt to the night in Hong Kong City. It seems that we will spend the next few days in the night again." Cheng Jianqiang looked at the night sky and said.

Dai Tiancheng smiled and said: "Let's practice! For the sake of tomorrow in Hong Kong City, it's okay for us to be tired. These few days are important. We can't lose the prestige of our People's Liberation Army, right? Come on! But, you just said Yes, compromise is not our style!"

Never compromise!
