The truck was bumpy on the rugged road, Qi Rui, the political commissar of the motorized infantry regiment, and Qian Da, the deputy head of the regiment, both of them grasped the iron rods that fixed the carport, and there were not many people in the carriage, which was not so comfortable compared to the kind of time when there were many people. When there are many people, they shake from side to side, and there are solid shoulders of their comrades to rely on and cushion. And no matter how cold the weather is, comrades-in-arms can feel warmer when they are crammed into a space.

Now there were only two of them and two guards in the carriage, and there were only four people in the space that could accommodate ten people, and that natural reliance and warmth were now replaced by loneliness and coldness. When there are a group of comrades-in-arms, there is always a lot to say, and those comrades with enthusiastic personalities will sing to everyone. Qi Rui still remembers that there was a warrior who was good at playing the harmonica in his first car, and he could play a nice tune even in such a bumpy situation. This kind of balanced ability makes Qi Rui not convinced. The soldier was wounded in the battle and is now being taken to a military hospital, and it is not known what the situation is now.

However, the road back is still much easier than the advance, and there is no need to worry about any enemies on the road. The enemies of Washington and Oregon have been cleared, and cities and villages have been swept away by the Liberation Army. The Yankees are worthy of being a country of immigrants, and everyone in Warton and Oregon has guns, but the isolated strongholds are no match for the Liberation Army that controls the situation. In the face of the Liberation Army that came to encircle and suppress the superior forces, the Yankees' strongholds were invariably defended to the death, and then they became killed.

More and more Goryeo people came from Goryeo to take charge of the dirty work, and the Liberation Army rushed to the next battle site immediately after the battle, which was also very effective in maintaining morale.

After five hours of swaying from the station, Qi Rui and Qian Duo finally arrived at their destination, the Port of Portland. There were also ten truckloads of people, each with not only four people, but only ten ordinary people. With this team, Qi Rui and the others got off the bus and gathered at the entrance of the heavily guarded Portland port.

Looking at the lively port, Qi Rui said to Qian Daduo: "Division Commander Zheng is unwilling to come to be the commander of the new motorized infantry division, do you think he thinks too much of us?" ”

"Master Zheng doesn't seem to be a kind person, I think he really wants us to hone ourselves." Qian Duo said with a little hesitation.

The North American theater of operations has decided to form a completely new motorized infantry division, and all the leaders of this infantry division will basically be directly upgraded by motorized infantry regiments. Qi Rui will soon become the political commissar of the division, and most of the money will also be promoted to deputy division commander. Not long ago, the two lieutenant colonels at this time the epaulettes became two-bar three-star colonel class badges.

If it had been a month ago, the two would probably have been excited about their promotion. Because the motorized infantry division is very likely to become a motorized infantry corps within half a year, even if they do not continue to be promoted, the two are very likely to become colonels by merit. The colonel was just one step away from the major general, and with the scale of the North American war, it was only a matter of time before the two became generals. For every cadet, it is their dream to replace the class badge with a few bars and stars for the general class badge made of pine and cypress branches and leaves. A general who is less than 30 years old, this is already about the same achievement as his predecessors. Being able to compete with those seniors who they once felt unattainable, it is a lie to say that they are not excited.

However, now the feelings of the two colonels have changed, and the general's class badge is still shining in their eyes, but such a future no longer only represents honor and status, the general represents more heavy responsibilities and obligations, and represents the weight of countless lives. Half a month ago, Division Commander Zheng said to the young soldiers of the motorized infantry regiment with a serious expression: "If you think that the officers and soldiers who died because of your orders sacrificed their lives for you, then you are very wrong! They believe that their sacrifice and dedication can make their relatives live a better life, and that their Chinese compatriots can live a better life. I wouldn't have joined the army if it wasn't for the change in my life. If I hadn't believed that everything that the Governor had told us could come true, I wouldn't have followed the Governor to the revolution. We were like this back then, and the same is true of the military today. They may have died honorably because of your orders, but they did not die for you. ”

No matter what Senior Commander Zheng said, none of these words had a greater impact on Qi Rui and them. Young people have always been self-centered to contact and explore the world. It's normal for them to think that they are the center of the world, or to think about things like they are centered on themselves.

Everything that Master Zheng said undoubtedly shattered their mentality. Even if they resisted this idea in their hearts, the young soldiers found that they could not find any reason to oppose it. Even the sobbing Wu Chaoyang was stunned.

Qi Rui himself felt that he was a person with some ideas, but he suddenly found that he was far worse than Master Zheng. He has never been able to understand why Chu Xue can't be with him, and all kinds of complicated or simple reasons often roll in Qi Rui's mind. But these reasons have never been able to solve Qi Rui's confusion. After listening to Master Zheng's words, Qi Rui suddenly found that all his considerations were centered on himself. As for what Chu Xue thought, Qi Rui didn't know at all.

Then Qi Rui suddenly understood why his father Wei Ze was able to put forward the suggestion of forcibly restraining Chu Xue to Qi Rui's side by his power. If what Qi Rui really wanted was to live with Chu Xue, Wei Ze's suggestion would undoubtedly go straight to the core. Now Qi Rui suddenly discovered that the reason why he categorically rejected his father's suggestion seemed to be his insistence on "pure feelings", but in fact, it may not be the case if he asked himself. Qi Rui longed to see Chu Xue when he was tired, and when Chu Xue occupied all of Qi Rui's attention, he did feel truly relaxed.

But what about after the easy? Qi Rui will also return to the old track as fast as possible, and run all the way towards the destination he longs for. As long as the psychological pressure does not reach the upper limit, how many times has Chu Xue's figure appeared in Qi Rui's heart?

Qi Rui felt a strong chill run down his spine and straight to his head, and he shivered greatly at that time. If this is true, Qi Rui is not an innocent teenager who falls in love. If this is true, then Daddy Wei Ze undoubtedly saw the essence of Qi Rui, as long as he saw Chu Xue, he could make Qi Rui feel easy, so what was the problem of forcibly restraining Chu Xue to Qi Rui's side?

It wasn't until his face was hot to the point of almost a high fever that Qi Rui understood. As for what Master Zheng said during this time period, Qi Rui didn't know at all. He didn't even notice if Master Zheng had spoken. Although he didn't know what Division Commander Zheng said at all, Qi Rui obviously felt that the attitude of the officers of the motorized infantry regiment towards Division Commander Zheng had changed a lot. Everyone has a respect for Master Zheng, not only for his predecessors with superb abilities, but also for an elder who can understand the world.

Therefore, whether it is Qi Rui, Qian Duo, or other officers of the motorized infantry regiment, everyone thinks that Commander Zheng is very suitable to be the commander of the new motorized infantry division, and Commander Zheng's military command ability is indeed above this group of young people. To their surprise, Master Zheng actually rejected everyone's plea. He insisted that it was best for the young men to take on the leadership of the motorized infantry division. The military headquarters and the theater command also agreed with Commander Zheng's suggestion.

Now the motorized infantry regiment has been expanded into a motorized infantry brigade, and a new infantry regiment has been incorporated into the sequence of motorized infantry brigades. The new equipment was shipped directly from Asia to the Port of Portland. As long as the equipment is brought back, the new troops can enter a state of full strength. Later, it is necessary to complete the process of familiarizing yourself with the equipment while fighting.

The guards at the port didn't let Qi Rui and them wait too long, and a major who was about thirty years old came to the door with a pass to greet them. Seeing Qi Rui and Qian Duoduo's class chapter, the major was stunned. The age of the two young servicemen and their ranks stunned the major.

Qi Rui didn't want things to be unpleasant, he stepped forward and took the initiative to extend his hand to the major, "Hello, I'm Qi Rui, the equipment leader of the motorized infantry regiment." ”

The major instinctively raised his arm to shake hands with Qi Rui, and only after shaking hands did the major remember the minimum etiquette. After letting go of his hand, he immediately raised his hand to Qi Rui and saluted, "I'm Major Chen Guang, who is in charge of taking you in." ”

After Qi Rui returned the salute, Qian Duo also took the initiative to shake hands with the major: "I am the deputy leader who came to pick up the equipment. ”

After the major shook hands with Qian Duo, the salute was much faster than the last time. Through the salute, the two sides quickly entered the working state.

The equipment had been unloaded at the dock, and Qi Rui and Qian Duo couldn't help but speed up their pace and quickly walked to the front of the truck as soon as they saw it. It is different from the kind of small truck with a load of 1.5 tons. This time, the truck was larger than the previous one. And the rear wheels have also changed from one wheel on one side to two wheels on the other. The size of the wheels is also one lap larger than the original small wheels.

Looking at the new equipment in surprise, Qi Rui and Qian Duo heard a shout, "Qi Rui, I haven't seen you for a long time." I'm back in North America! ”

Raising his head, Qi Rui saw Hu Xingzhi standing in front of the phalanx formed by the truck. When the old guy met, Qi Rui walked over in surprise. "I want to ask you! Why didn't you come with us at the time? ”

Hu Xingzhi also walked over happily, and when he shook hands with Qi Rui, Hu Xingzhi smiled and said: "It's not that I don't want to come, the governor asked me to wait for new equipment with Li Shaokang." Someone has to learn how to use the new equipment. How long did you test it yourself? ”

"I'll leave this matter to you." Qi Rui also understood why Hu Xingzhi didn't come to North America together.

"Oh! Colonel! Hu Xingzhi said with a smile. Without waiting for Qi Rui to say anything, Hu Xingzhi said excitedly: "Old Qian, you come too, I'll show you a good thing!" ”
