"Bang..." the sound of the car door opening and closing sounded.

It was mid-August when Wang Yan once again stood on the territory of the cultural troupe.

The weather in Mengzi today is very good, there is no rain, the sky is blue, and white clouds of various shapes are floating slowly and thickly. Even when the wind blows, it's cool and comfortable.

"Are you still used to it?" Liu Feng asked with a smile.

Wang Yan squinted at him: "I've only been away for a year, what's wrong with me? Okay, you old man, don't follow me around, we can finish it in one trip. This bag belongs to you, this bag belongs to you. The small bag is for tonight's meal. You wait downstairs and let him take you back later. Why are you such a bitch? How can I forget you? This is yours. You can take it away later. "

The driver and assistant, who was drooling just thinking about Wang Yan, was a little disappointed just now. Hearing that there was something for him, he nodded hurriedly. It is true that during the year when Wang Yan went to the Military and Political University for further study, he could no longer eat so much meat. As you can see, the fat gained by following Wang Yan for two years has been lost in this year.

In fact, the supply of the army now is much better than three years ago, but there is still no major material development. The improvement of food for the troops will not begin until after reorganization and disarmament. On the one hand, the number of people is small, and the standard of food spread to each individual is higher. On the other hand, after the end of the Cultural Revolution, the production and construction were restored and improved, and the output was more. This was fed back to the army's logistics supply, which naturally increased again.

It's definitely not enough yet...

Liu Feng was good at what he did, and he had a good grasp of the key points of contact with Wang Yan, without making any mistakes.

Immediately, Wang Yan acted as the main force, carrying his backpack, carrying his big bag, and taking several bags. The driver and assistant took some other things and went upstairs.

Wang Yan did not pack it away, but dug out a big bag among the piles of things. He carried it downstairs and watched Liu Feng leave with the driver. He went to the political commissar's office.

"Report."

"Enter."

After hearing the reply, Wang Yan pushed the door open and saw that Ning Shan had stood up and left the desk, obviously hearing his voice.

He took two steps forward, put his feet together, and raised his hands in salute: "I am reporting to the political commissar that I will report to you after returning from further studies."

"Okay, okay..."

Ning Shan laughed and came over to pat Wang Yan on the shoulder, "You are finally back. I knew you could do things, but I didn't expect you could do things like this. Your reply to the leaders at the Military and Political University has been spread.

They talked about the necessity of disarmament and that the army should be maintained at two to three million. They also talked about long-range precision strikes beyond visual range in the future, and what about satellites and positioning. It is also necessary to vigorously develop the military industry, improve logistical supplies and operations, and ensure a year's storage capacity of various artillery shells for saturation strikes.

I heard from the chief that the Military Commission later held a meeting to discuss, and central leaders participated in the meeting, which caused quite a stir. What you said offended people. If the army is really reduced in the future and millions of brothers have no food to eat, you will become a sinner.

Oh, yes, I heard that the leaders of the Military and Political University gave you a nickname? Called Wang Dapao? "

The heads of the Military and Political University are, of course, not school leaders, but military, division, and regiment-level leaders who studied there. The first to talk about it was a group of regiment-level leaders, and then it was widely recognized by the Military and Political University.

Wang Dapao, if you listen to it, you will know that it is not a compliment.

This nickname has two meanings. One is that he is young and can brag a lot.

The second is the way he brags about future wars, which is to bombard him with artillery. From high-precision precision-guided artillery strikes, to cheap and easy-to-use various howitzers, rocket launchers and other artillery fire, as well as support from air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles, to strategic bombing support from bombers, and future space-based weapons outside the earth To strike. All-round, all-terrain, all-world, sea, land and air trinity coordinated attack.

And as Ningshan said, he emphasized the storage of ammunition and logistics supply and transportation, and had some ideas for future logistics and transportation construction. I also talked about the regular maintenance, maintenance and cleaning after the ammunition is saturated, selling and supporting it to countries shrouded in war, in exchange for foreign exchange, interests and status in other regions, etc.

Although everyone in the military has a phobia of insufficient firepower, Wang Yan still felt that what Wang Yan said was a bit too much, so he became Wang Dapao.

However, although Wang Dapao is not a compliment, he has to admit that it is indeed very loud. The leaders of the military know it, and the leaders of the central government also know it. It can be said that he became famous in one battle. Otherwise, the span would not be so big, and he would be transferred from a literary soldier to the General Staff.

Although there is some suspicion of talking about military affairs on paper, anyone who has read Wang Yan's writing must admit that Wang Yan does understand military affairs. Although he is writing stories, he needs to review some battles and write them very thoroughly. Otherwise, when he goes out to perform, the troupe leaders would all have small notebooks to jot down knowledge.

Wang Yan laughed loudly: "I'm only twenty-three. I'm young and full of energy. I like to brag. I wrote a few books and a few songs, and I'm in a state of ecstasy. I'm talking nonsense. I've done a lot of work on the future of national defense and the modernization of the army. The free thinking based on my young thoughts and knowledge is all for the prosperity of the country, so there is nothing wrong with it."

"You...sit down."

Ning Shan shook his head in a funny way, and went over to make tea for Wang Yan, "What are you carrying? I'm telling you, don't let me make mistakes."

"What can be wrong? They are just some specialties from the capital, such as roast duck, cooked food, pastries, etc., they are all for children. You can just eat them with wine. Eat them quickly in the past two days. They won't last long and will go bad easily. .”

"Okay, you kid is still thinking of me. By the way, the commander was very happy when your manuscript of the '11th Army' was mailed back. He also said he was afraid of being noticed by others. It seems that he is the only one who knows the stuff."

After chatting, Ningshan put the tea in front of Wang Yan and said with a smile, "I have good news for you. In view of your excellent performance, after research and decision, you will be promoted to the deputy battalion level. But you are too young. It’s still not good to be promoted over the top. So after a while, I will go through the process in the past few days to promote you to the full company, and wait until after the year to promote you to the deputy battalion.

In addition, the chief asked me to seek your opinion and see what you want to do. You performed very well at the Military and Political University. Although you came back with the nickname Wang Dapao, it also means that your views on future military construction and the political and ideological work you wrote are generally recognized by the leaders. So if you want, you can be transferred to the Political Department to do political and ideological work.

If you don't go and stay in our art troupe, you will be given the position of deputy director of the art department. Although you are the deputy battalion and one level lower, you will not be assigned specific tasks, so there is no problem.

It's not that I don't need you, you mentioned it before you left. You said you wanted to go out and perform for the soldiers, write articles, and write songs, so I thought of giving you a job. If you change your mind, I'll move you down a level and give you a real job. I believe you can do a good job. "

Ning Shan was quite good to Wang Yan, and what he said was clear and true. Except for the deputy commander, Ningshan basically decides on the appointment and dismissal of personnel in the regiment, because he is the regimental commander and political commissar. It's true that Wang Yan can do whatever job he arranges for him.

Wang Yan drank tea: "Thank you, political commissar, for thinking of me so much. Since I was asked to choose, it must be the deputy director of the art department of our regiment. This sounds great. I really wanted to bring it to the soldiers. Happy, it’s not easy for our border guards.

Otherwise, why would I stay here with you? Whether it's the General Administration or the General Staff, isn't that agency better than ours? Why bother? It's just fine. Although he is an art soldier, being a deputy battalion at the age of 24 is quite an exaggeration. "

"You can figure it out yourself. Then you can go find Lao Zhang and assign you a single dormitory. You are not married, so you can't live in the apartment. After all, you are a cadre, and it is not appropriate to live with so many people. You still have to If you use your heart to create, I will arrange a single dormitory for you, which will be cleaner."

"Okay, I'll find him tomorrow." Wang Yan didn't refuse. Liu Feng got married and moved out. Now he lives in the dormitory, which puts too much pressure on Chen Can and Zhu Ke. He might as well move out to give them both a chance to breathe.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and Ningshan asked about things at the Military and Political University. In the past few days when Wang Yan came back, 'Wang Dapao' had become famous throughout the army and the central government. It can be imagined that by that time How wonderful it is.

Of course, this "whole army" refers to the senior leaders of each military region, middle and lower-level officers, and the majority of soldiers. It is still unknown. The reason Ningshan said he would be complained about in the future was because everyone might have some complaints against him after everyone knew about it. In fact, reorganization and disarmament are not decided in a moment. There are discussions in this regard now.

After chatting with Ningshan for a while, Wang Yan went downstairs to find Lao Liao, and of course he also got some things for Lao Liao.

"What's the matter, there's a new song?" Old Liao looked at what Wang Yan brought to him, put it under the table, and threw a big one to Wang Yan. The two of them smoked and talked.

"What's the matter? I can't find you if I don't have a song?"

"If there is no song, you are welcome. If there is song, you are even more welcome."

"That means no songs are not welcome."

After a few words of fun, Wang Yan took out the music score from his pocket and spoke: "You can't feel it here, but you can feel the turbulent waves and huge waves in the capital. Seeking change in stability and seeking breakthrough in change are the characteristics of the capital now. Mainstream. I was exposed to more of it at the Military and Political University. When I graduated, I imagined what the future military would look like. The leaders gave me the nickname "Wang Dapao". I felt inspired and wrote it in three days. Such a song."

Lao Liao took the score with a smile and chanted: "The war song of a strong army..."

This is the second time Wang Yan has 'composed' this song. The last time was during military training in the spring breeze. This time he wrote the book "My Opinion" precisely because he understood the thoughts of the Military Commission and the Central Committee. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the trumpet of the new journey of strengthening the army. Although the lyrics contained some of the later commander's thoughts on military management, they are definitely not wrong now.

Wang Yan's idea is very simple. He is already 'Wang Dapao', so he will write a song and blow the horn of the new journey first. Of course it was just blowing the sound, not him going up to give orders.

Old Liao hummed over the lyrics and music, but he was still the same as before, and asked Wang Yan about his thoughts on the arrangement.

"Let's follow the march. It's best to have a rally trumpet at the beginning, and a charge trumpet before the chorus. But it might be a little inappropriate. After all, these two trumpets can't be blown randomly. You can use your brain to change one. Overall, The tone is still bright, exciting and powerful.”

"Okay, I understand. Is there anything else?"

Wang Yan laughed dumbly and stood up to say goodbye...

"Wang Yan, you're back!"

"Everyone has missed you in the year since you left."

Wang Yan returned to the dormitory to pack his things. When he arrived at the door, he saw all the people in the dormitory lying lazily on the bed. Practicing every day always consumes energy, and they were all waiting to take a shower.

"You must be thinking about the things I brought." Wang Yan smiled and nodded with everyone. When he got into the room, he took something out of a bag and put it on the table. "They are all specialties of the capital. Let's share them."

A group of tired people suddenly became energetic and divided things lively.

Zhu Ke broke off a large piece of pig's trotters and his mouth was full of oil. He looked at Wang Yan who was busy packing things and sighed and said, "Wang Yan, didn't you hear any news in the capital?"

"what news?"

"They say the college entrance examination is going to be resumed." Chen Can continued. When Wang Yan turned around, he said, "Zhu Ke's father works at the Education Bureau and made a long-distance call to him. He said that there was a symposium held above. , it is very likely that the college entrance examination will be resumed. And now that the chaos is being reversed, some educated youth have begun to return to the city."

"It must be that you cadre sons are well-informed. I don't know anything about it, but from what you said, it should be inseparable. If it doesn't resume this year, it should resume next year. What's going on, Zhu Ke? Do you want to change careers and take the college entrance examination?"

"I was hesitating. I didn't think about it, but after hearing what you said, I thought about it. You're right. If you don't recover this year, you should recover next year. In short, it's just the past two years. I have to call my home later. , go back early. What do you think?"

Before Wang Yan could speak, Guan Dongming spoke: "Your questions are unnecessary. Wang Yan just came back from the Military and Political University. Although it was only a year of further study, on his resume, he graduated from the Military and Political University. Besides, Well, Wang Yan has already been doing well, writing books and songs, and even used his major to retire and go to college? Wang Yan, after returning from further training this time, it’s time for promotion again, right?"

"Zhenglian." Wang Yan answered very modestly.

"Look, in our room, the three people promoted to office are Wang Yan, Chen Can, and Liu Feng. Wang Yan is in the company, Liu Feng is in the deputy company, Chen Can is in the platoon, Liu Feng has been a pacesetter every year, and has been commended for his meritorious service. Wang Yan also wrote I write articles and songs, and Chen Can’s father is there. He’s going to any university. He’s in the army, so he’s not bad at all. It’s our brothers who want to change careers and pursue a better future.”

Wang Yan did not participate in their conversation anymore. He packed up his things, carried the dirty clothes and went to the water room. He took a shower and washed clothes...

After a year, Xiao Suizi didn't even know what to say when she saw the man she had longed for again. Even Hao Shuwen looked at Wang Yan who was smiling and did not say any curse words.

Liu Feng and He Xiaoping didn't watch and remained silent.

"We don't know each other? What are you doing standing there in a daze? Make room quickly and don't block the door. You didn't notice that I'm carrying a lot of things." Wang Yan's words were still so casual and he smiled.

The familiar feeling came over and the two of them returned to normal. Hao Shuwen still blamed it when she opened her mouth: "Why did you come here? I've been waiting for you for half a year and I'm already hungry."

"The things we brought back are too little. There is not enough for us to eat. Didn't we go get some vegetables or something? Look at the ears. Don't forget the well digger when you eat. You haven't even eaten yet, so you are scolding the cook first. , Are you talking like that? No need to help, I can do it myself."

Wang Yan didn't let Xiao Suizi and the others get started and put the large sack on the ground.

Xiao Suizi asked: "What did you buy? So many things?"

"Pork, vegetables, fruits, rice and noodles, etc., and I bought some seasonings. Don't be idle, hurry up and pack up, and eat early."

Immediately, everyone started working together, packing the dishes and chatting.

Seeing He Xiaoping working quietly and with nimble hands and feet, Wang Yan asked, "Xiaoping, how is your father?"

"It's okay, thank you for thinking about me."

"Have you been rehabilitated?"

"Not yet, but probably soon."

He Xiaoping shook her head, but her mood was not very low. After all, more and more people are being rehabilitated, and her father should be here soon.

"I heard that the college entrance examination is going to be resumed." Wang Yan changed the subject.

Hao Shuwen asked: "Have you heard about it too? Who said it?"

"Zuke said that his father works in education and called him..."

"I called him and asked him to change his job and go back to take the college entrance examination." Xiao Suizi answered, "This matter has spread throughout our group, and people are panicking. Many people are asking about it. If we are really sure, Well, our group is probably going to break up."

"How is it possible? There are still many people who don't want to take the college entrance examination. Is our army stable after all? In particular, the treatment of our art troupe is also very good. They all came in through hard work and it is difficult to give up directly. Besides, everyone wants to How could the political commissar agree to change jobs? Being in the army is like a place where you can come and leave whenever you want, it’s not that easy."

Xiao Suizi asked: "Do you think this is accurate?"

"allow!"

Wang Yan said with certainty, "I told them in the dormitory before that if we don't resume this year, we will resume next year. The country intends to reform and respects knowledge and talents. This has set the tone. Now we recommend going to college like this, There are too many disadvantages, so we must take action.”

Hao Shuwen said: "What do you think?"

"I think you two should change careers and go home to go to college."

Not only Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi were surprised, but Liu Feng and his wife were also quite surprised.

"Why? Isn't it good to be in our art troupe?"

"I'll analyze it for you, but don't reveal it."

Wang Yan lit a cigarette and said, "I wrote part of a book at Military and Political University, which is considered as my graduation homework. I think that currently, our army is a bit too big and bloated... The Military Commission and the Central Committee have We are determined to reform and strengthen the military, so I think there will be reorganization and disarmament in the future. So think about it, our art troupe serves the soldiers. With fewer soldiers, do we still need to exist..."

From military to politics, from politics to social environment, and to possible changes in the future, as well as the most important economic aspect. Ordinary people would not believe what he said, but fortunately, the four people here believed in him. He Xiaoping might not believe it, but if Liu Feng believed it, she would believe it. Liu Feng was the one in charge. In other words, He Xiaoping didn't want to be the head of the family. What she wanted was support and a home for her body and mind.

"So I think that instead of spending time in the art troupe, it is better to go to college. I will have better opportunities and better development in the future." Wang Yan said.

Xiao Suizi asked: "What about you?"

"I have already joined the company. Let me tell you something more. The political commissar said that because of my good performance at the Military Front University, I will be promoted to deputy battalion after the year. Besides, I have also gone to the Military and Political University for further studies, so I am good enough. I will Here, as the cultural troupe reaches its final stage, I will find a way to transfer to the capital when the time comes, and I will tell you what I will do in detail.

I guess you two were still in school at that time, so we happened to be getting together. Wait another two years to see what policies are in place at that time, and then decide what to do. After all, I can’t do anything wrong, maybe I can just write articles with peace of mind in the future.

I heard that royalties were going to be restored. When I was in school, I wrote more than 400,000 manuscripts on "Chinese Heroes," but People's Literature had not yet been published. I'm waiting for the regulations to be issued. I'll see the situation then and then pay me my royalties. In addition, for the two books I wrote, "Army 11" and "Army 14," I will also be paid some royalties. By then, I will have a lot of money, ranging from several thousand to tens of thousands. "

Wang Yan also imitated Liu Feng and muttered, and the key points were two points. One was that he would go to the capital in the future, and the other was that he earned quite a lot from writing books, so there would be no problem no matter what. It was to allow the second daughter to change careers with peace of mind and go home to take the college entrance examination.

Both of them have good families. Although Xiao Suizi's father was punished, he still has some energy after returning to work. It is not difficult to change careers. There is no need to hang out with him in the art troupe. It is better to go to college.

"Don't look at me like that, you should really think about it. Or let me put it another way, even if what I say may be wrong, I will still go to the capital in the future. Mengzi is still too small, and the material is not as rich as the capital. What do you think? I have so much money, why don’t I enjoy it?”

Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi still didn't speak, they just looked at Wang Yan, thinking in a mess, and they couldn't make up their minds for the moment.

Instead, Liu Feng asked: "Wang Yan, what do you think we should do?"

"Xiao Ping wants to go to college?"

Hearing Wang Yan ask himself, He Xiaoping shook her head: "I listen to him."

"Then what do you mean?"

Liu Feng also shook his head: "I don't know either. I thought it was pretty good now, but after listening to what you said, I don't know what to do."

"Then let Xiaoping go to college. Don't you love dancing? Try to get admitted to the College for Nationalities to continue your studies. You can go further on this road in the future. Liu Feng will follow me in the art troupe. If the art troupe One day, I will help him transfer to the capital."

Hao Shuwen struggled and said, "What should I do if I fail the exam?" She was not very good at studying...

"Let's wait for two years to take the exam. Your family still can't afford to feed you? No, it's not me. I have money, so you two can take the exam peacefully. I think the questions shouldn't be too difficult, after all, how many years have we all I haven’t touched the books anymore, I have already forgotten them all. If the college entrance examination is really resumed, the country will definitely consider it. It shouldn’t be a big problem.

Xiaoping doesn't have to be afraid. Liu Feng doesn't make money. If it doesn't work out, I'll lend it to you and pay it back slowly in the future. It's no big deal. If you really want to take the exam, decide as early as possible. Otherwise, it would be difficult to change jobs when the time comes. The political commissar would definitely be stuck, and I wouldn’t be able to say too much. So you'd better be decisive and don't wait any longer. "

Xiao Suizi said resentfully: "You really want us to leave the art troupe."

"I want you to go to college. That is a better way. I also plan to settle in the capital in the future. I have never been there before. This time I stayed there for a year. The capital is better. I want to wait for the royalties. In the future, I will consider buying a house there. Liu Feng, you can buy it too. If you don’t have the money, I will lend it to you. I will definitely not regret it.”

Wang Yan didn't forget to support Liu Feng. After all, a small courtyard now costs only a few thousand yuan. He didn't buy it before because his money came from a shady source. How could he use the money from friendly exchanges for high consumption.

Now he is about to be paid publishing fees, and People's Literature will also reissue some of the books he wrote before. With his current status in the literary world and the terrifying number of more than four million words, he is instantly a nouveau riche. In the future, when royalties are reintroduced, he can continue to make money from these four million words, and he will already have financial freedom.

Liu Feng smiled and nodded. He didn't know what to say, but he decided to believe Wang Yan. In his words, he owed Wang Yan too much and he had no idea himself. Wang Yan would just do whatever he said.

This is certainly a wise choice.

Seeing that Hao Shuwen and Xiao Suizi were still thinking about it, Wang Yan didn't say anything more and stood up to start cooking.

This is a major matter of life, and there is an emotional entanglement with him. Moreover, there is no certainty. It is normal to have difficulty making a decision for a while. They need some time to think about it.

They have a lot to think about...

On the contrary, it was simpler for Liu Feng and his wife. After all, neither of them had any ideas, so they just followed Wang Yan's arrangements. Besides, he also supported them financially, so there was nothing to hesitate about.

In this way, Wang Yan made another meal of braised pork and other dishes, paired with the things he brought back from the capital, and started the meal. Wang Yan also drank wine with Liu Feng.

After eating, everyone felt much better. They seemed to have ignored the intersection that was a major turning point in their lives. They were chatting and laughing, listening to Wang Yan telling the interesting things that happened to him at the Military and Political University. The most interesting thing was of course about Wang Yan. All kinds of cannons...
