When the first winter rain fell, the Whampoa Military Academy had greatly improved after continuous construction, the personnel of various departments had increased substantially, and vitality was everywhere, and the management department and the military medical department, which had only one name, were also enriched.

Rows of tall and wide student dormitories have been completed one after another, the living conditions of the cadets have been greatly improved, the playground that was originally full of weeds has become a flat and tidy training ground, and there is a standard runway paved with cinders around, and even the long-delayed military academy repair institute has risen under the White Crane Fort in the southeast of the campus, forming an independent courtyard with two rows of dormitories, unfortunately, there is no shadow of processing machinery.

What made Zheng Yi most pleased was that the Whampoa Military Academy finally had its own formal teaching materials, and the practical "Infantry Drill Code", "Shooting Instruction" and "Field Service Order" were called "model orders", and together with the four knowledge of tactics, weapons, transportation, and city building, they became the seven compulsory courses for military cadets.

The three British and French military textbooks translated by Zheng Yi have been included in the list of elective textbooks, and many of them have been introduced into the official textbooks, and the textbooks such as "Military Traffic" compiled by Yu Feipeng and "Military Surveying" compiled by the professor's department have also been included in the optional catalog, which has greatly enriched the teaching content and constantly broadened the students' horizons.

At the end of November, 645 cadets of the first phase of Huangpu officially graduated, because of the arrival of recruits from various provinces in urgent need of training, as well as the busy work of various departments and the lack of personnel, there was no graduation ceremony, and a small number of outstanding graduates were exceptionally promoted to the second and third phase of the student corps district captains or detachment leaders, and most of them served as company platoon commanders of the recruit companies, becoming the first batch of military training backbones of the school army.

Fifty ordnance repair personnel recruited by the Ministry of Munitions from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces also arrived in a hurry at this time, and what made Zheng Yi helpless was that as soon as these specially recruited personnel of the headquarters arrived, they were divided up by other ministries, and most of them were robbed of diplomas from various industrial and technical schools, and the two chiefs of the Munitions Department left five more people to become reserve officers, and finally only 20 people were assigned to the repair station.

The arrival of the newcomer made Zheng Yi even busier, because the military academy has never had clear requirements and syllabus in terms of cultural teaching, Zheng Yi after repeated consideration, he dismissed the post of cultural instructor in order to concentrate on the professional training of the personnel of the ordnance institute of the headquarters.

Busy days always pass quickly, with the arrival of more than 1,300 cadets in the third phase, the Whampoa Military Academy is full of vitality, the dragon and the tiger leap, but the number of instructors has also become seriously insufficient, Zheng Yi is training his 20 subordinates day and night in the repair institute under the Baihe Fort, and the training time has just completed a month and he has become an instructor of the military academy again, responsible for the basic teaching of weapons for the second and third batch of cadets.

With the arrival of groups of teachers and students, political education has been strengthened by the unremitting efforts of the Russian advisory group and the Communists, and the military academy journal "Poster" and the progressive newspapers and periodicals "Iskra," "New Youth," and "Soldiers' Life" have entered the lives of teachers and students one after another.

When the new year was approaching, the mechanical equipment and a small diesel generator purchased by the military academy finally arrived, Zheng Yi immediately led his 20 brothers to install and debug, and after two weeks of hard work, it was completed, but suddenly found that the procurement unit did not buy back any metal materials.

Under Zheng Yi's repeated urging, the new Ma Daha apologized that they couldn't find the previous material purchase order, and the stunned Zheng Yi could only return to the dormitory, listed a list overnight, and submitted it directly to the supervisor Yu Feipeng the next morning.

Who knew that Yu Feipeng had already made the east wall and the west wall full of lawsuits for the increasingly huge expenses, and he couldn't come up with the money for the purchase of materials for a while, so angry that Zheng Yi almost vomited blood, and in a fit of anger, he grabbed his brother Zhou Junruo and went to the munitions warehouse, and moved all the more than 60 scrapped long and short guns back to the repair station, and let the brothers under his command practice for the time being, which is better than nothing.

After being busy, Zheng Yi suddenly found that he not only forgot to watch the new drama performed on New Year's Eve, but also forgot to watch the basketball game held on New Year's Day of the military academy.

During the lunch break, Zheng Yi asked his brothers who had made great progress: "Which department won the championship in the basketball game on New Year's Day?" ”

"First in the coaching department."

"The second phase of the student team won the second place."

"Sir, you play basketball so well, why don't you join the coaching team?"

"I knew that we would also form a team to compete, and we would not necessarily lose to the student team!"

"Yes, sir, I don't think anyone has better skills than you, we are all high school graduates, most of us have played, and we are by no means worse than them!"

Zheng Yi waved his hand to interrupt the gossiping brothers: "Don't envy others, I forgot about it because I was too busy and dizzy, next time I will definitely form a team, and everyone will be given two sets of the best jerseys and shoes, and I will pack them." ”

The brothers cheered in unison, and then excitedly discussed, Lieutenant Xie Xieyuan, who had been unusually promoted to quartermaster officer and cadet captain, quietly came to Zheng Yi and sat down:

"When I was in the playground yesterday afternoon, my subordinates overheard several first-term graduates who played basketball talking about you, saying that the reason why you didn't dare to join the troupe was because you didn't have literary and artistic cells, and you didn't dare to join the basketball team of the coaching department because you were afraid of making a fool of yourself.

Zheng Yi was dumbfounded, then thought about it and asked with a smile: "Those grandsons probably already know that you are from our ordnance institute, right?" ”

Xie Xieyuan recalled for a long time: "It's possible, as if when I left quietly, I vaguely heard laughter behind me...... Ah, speaking of which, those boys had a premeditated plan and deliberately said it to me? ”

Zheng Yi was happy: "They have approached me many times, this one told me to join the drama club, the other asked me to attend a military seminar, and two were even more annoying, guarding the door of my dormitory for three consecutive days, and as soon as they met, it was a round of fierce bombardment, as if I didn't join their Three People's Doctrine Society It would be a heinous anti-revolutionary, where do you think I have this time?" ”

"I guess I sarcastically mocked them in a hurry that day, and these grandsons couldn't get angry, so they resorted to this low-level agitation, haha! I don't have to worry about it, even if I'm a fucking sissy, what can they do with me? ”

"Sir, you really have a big heart!"

Xie Xieyuan, who is twenty-four years old but looks like forty-two, is full of admiration.

Zheng Yi hurriedly asked him to stop: "Okay, okay, you guy is good at everything, he learns everything quickly, and his skills are also the most prominent, the only drawback is that he likes to pat himself on the back, he has to change, and he must be confident!" ”

"I have a lot of class schedules, I rely on you to lead the team here, I have already got the materials I need, first process the parts I need according to the established plan, repair the dozen or so long and short guns that can still be repaired, and then consider the matter of imitating Browning pistols......"

"I won't say anything else, but I just emphasize one point: we must strictly abide by the operating specifications at all times and always pay attention to operational safety!"

Xie Xieyuan immediately stood up: "Don't worry, sir, it's on your subordinates!" ”

Zheng Yi saw Lao Xie looking like kraft candy, how could he dare to rest assured? All the brothers were called for a safety meeting, and it was dinner time when they returned to the dormitory.

Zhou Junruo saw Zheng Yi coming back, so he took him to the officer's canteen together, and asked in a low voice as he walked, "Have you offended anyone recently?" ”

Zheng Yi was puzzled: "I'm busy all day long, where is the opportunity to offend people?" ”

Zhou Junruo thought about it for a while, and gradually understood: "That is, you have repeatedly refused to join any association, and you have offended those revolutionary activists, otherwise there will be no word of right and wrong." ”

"What is non? Big brother said let's hear it. ”

Zheng Yi was a little annoyed, thinking to himself that your grandsons are still finished?

Zhou Junruo, who has always been polite and polite, shook his head: "It's not very good, what a sissy, the five tones are incomplete, the giant of language is the dwarf of action, etc., there is no good word, so that my uncle asked me in the afternoon What is the matter with you?" Is there a conflict with whom? ”

"Well, how do I know what's going on...... You too, what are you doing to offend them? Those people are too energetic, do you have time to fight with them? ”

Zheng Yi laughed angrily, stopped and said loudly: "Lao Tzu is handsome, Lao Tzu is rich, who can't see it and bite my eggs!" ”

A laugh sounded, and Zheng Yi realized that he had come to the door of the cafeteria, and more than 200 colleagues and officials inside and outside looked at him, laughing, and the scene was extremely joyful.

Zheng Yi was embarrassed, he simply lowered his face and coughed lightly, as if nothing had happened, and strode towards the dining window in the increasingly lively laughter, and suddenly found that Zhou Junruo, who had been following him, had disappeared.

In front of the dinner window, a row of happy instructors moved a step sideways as if they had made an appointment in advance, and respectfully asked Zheng Yi to cook first, which immediately caused even greater laughter.

Zheng Yi was helpless, so he handed the bowl to the canteen master, but the smiling master added a scoop of meat to him, which made Zheng Yi even more embarrassed.

I saw Zheng Yi holding a bowl full of food, standing solemnly in front of the window and not leaving, puffing up his chest and coughing in a matter-of-fact manner, patiently waiting for everyone to calm down.

After all eyes were focused on him, he said in a loud and serious voice: "Chiefs, colleagues, there is a bit of a misunderstanding in this matter today......

Before he finished speaking, the laughter broke out again, and many people burst into tears with laughter.

Zheng Yi was aggrieved, and when the laughter stopped, he helplessly explained: "Everyone, it is estimated that I have been too busy these days, I have not joined various clubs organized by some colleagues and students, and I don't pay attention to the method and tone when I refuse, and I accidentally offended, so I have won the reputation of the sissy, the giant of language, the dwarf of action, and so on......

The laughter rang out again, but not as loud as the previous ones, and many people were already aware of the mystery.

Zheng Yi's face was serious, but his language was quite witty: "In order to no longer wear so many dazzling halos, I take this rare opportunity to be full of joy and solemnly announce two decisions: First, I have decided to respond to the call of the school committee and the Political Department to establish an ordnance institute under the Ministry of Munitions The Whampoa Military Academy Soldiers' Choir', to participate in the Spring Festival Gala held a month and a half later; second, from now on, every afternoon after class, as long as I don't go out, I will go to the basketball court for a walk, if anyone thinks that his shooting skills are better than mine, he can challenge me, but the rules are set by me: each other must throw ten balls eight meters away from the hoop, and each ball lost needs to give each other an ocean! After the announcement, please publicize on your behalf and tell each other, thank you! ”

After Zheng Yi finished speaking, he turned around and left, and the hall was full of consternation, until Zheng Yi went out of the door, and he heard bursts of laughter and heated discussions.
