Watching Bai Tiejun staggering and being dragged out of the company gate by others, it was already half an hour later.

Gao Cheng took advantage of the moment he turned around, rubbed the moist corners of his eyes, but pretended to be very unhappy in his mouth:

"A group of soldiers, two hundred push-ups for half an hour. You have to pack up when you come back. ”

Hong Xingguo did not make a sound, as the first in the post adjustment document issued by his superiors, he only had the aftertaste of the Seventh Company of Steel at this time. What's more, he didn't know that when Gao Cheng said this, he had more reluctance in his heart.

And Xiao Chen, who returned to the dormitory, showed a loss that everyone could see.

Liu Xiaolong was next to him when he answered the phone, but he had never been good at words, and he didn't know how to comfort Xiao Chen. I could only watch Xiao Chen sit there quietly, completely devoid of the usual nerdy obsession.

"Xiao Chen, do you want to talk to the instructor?"

This is the only way Liu Xiaolong can think of. Among the people he knows, it seems that only Liu Jingming, an instructor, is good at doing ideological work.

Xiao Chen shook his head, and when he stood up again, Liu Xiaolong suddenly found that the suffocating loss just now had swept away from Xiao Chen, and was replaced by an emotion that he was very familiar with—fighting spirit.

"I think both my squad leader and my company commander are holding back a lot of energy in their hearts at this time."

"They need to vent, and I need to. But everyone vents differently, and I'm used to doing more seriously. ”

To do one thing with a commemorative meaning, Xiao Chen has only one plan, that is, even if the Seventh Steel Company is disbanded, he will bring back the honor.

Looking at Xiao Chen, who hurriedly walked out of the door, Liu Xiaolong subconsciously asked, "Xiao Chen, where are you going?" ”

"E-class, I haven't finished writing the code yet."

That night, Liu Jingming, who knew Xiao Chen's situation, called Xiao Chen out alone to guide him.

Everyone thinks that time and reality will make this student who spends all day on textbooks and training forget these things, and after a long time, he will slowly get used to it.

But when the final exam was over and Liu Jingming counted the whereabouts of the students, the results reported to him by Xiao Chen made him understand that there are some things that are not easy to forget:

"Did you really decide to go back and have a look?"

Xiao Chen chose to return to the old company, and at this time, there were only two people left in the Seventh Steel Company.

Gao Cheng, Xu Sanduo.

This is what Wu Liuyi wrote to him in his heart, and since that phone call, Wu Liuyi has written a letter to Xiao Chen every half month.

The letter will inform you in detail about the situation of the Seventh Company. And in the last letter, Wu Liuyi added his name in a very guilty tone - and me, Wu Liuyi.

Xiao Chen knew that he had to go and see, his name had long been absent from the roster of the third class of the Seventh Steel Company, but Xiao Chen couldn't forget that he was the 4,956th soldier of the Seventh Steel Company.

Let the mission passed down by the spirit of the Seventh Company of Steel not be thrown to others.

Xiao Chen nodded.

"Instructor, I think you can understand my feelings for the old troops."

"But you haven't been home for two years. If I can go back and see my parents at this time, I think they will be happy too. ”

Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment.

Indeed, since leaving home, he has been in contact with Xiao Youming and Xia Yufang through letters and phone calls. If they can go back to visit their home a year in advance, especially as a student of the National Defense University of Science and Technology, it will definitely make them happy for a long time.

Xiao Chen is completely accustomed to the existence of such a pair of parents.

"Instructor, if the rules allow, I hope I can go back to see my parents after I have spent some time in the old army."

Liu Jingming smiled, it seemed that Xiao Chen was really unclear about the relevant regulations.

Yes, after all, everyone has a first time, doesn't it?

"I can't call the shots. According to the rules, after you become a student, you can use this vacation freely. But the units were afraid that you would run around and have an accident, so most of them were recalled to the old army. ”

"Your situation is special, this matter, go back and apply to the head of your regiment, I can't help it."

Shrugging, Liu Jingming pretended to be humorous, and then watched Xiao Chen leave his office.

From central south to Saibei, the scenery outside the train window gives people the illusion of changing world. A moment ago, the wind was still beautiful, and in the blink of an eye, it was a downpour. There are also green trees in the south, and when you sleep, you can see the snow in the north.

When I came to the 702nd regiment in circles, it was already 48 hours after boarding the train from the Star City Railway Station.

"Xiao Chen, are you back?"

Xiao Chen, the soldier on duty at the entrance of the regimental department, did not know him, or rather, he was not very familiar with it.

But when he saw Xiao Chen, he called out Xiao Chen's name and said very enthusiastically:

"I saw you when the regiment headquarters celebrated your achievements at the training ground last year, and you are a big celebrity in our regiment. I'll make a call to the regiment headquarters duty room to report, the regiment commander is here today, and I guess I will be happy to hear that you are back. ”

Since the reorganization of the Seventh Steel Company, the regiment commander has rarely been able to show a smiling face.

During this time, all units were trembling, for fear of being caught and criticized by the regiment commander.

Xiao Chen's return is a happy event, at least it can make the head of the regiment happy for one day, and he doesn't have to be so frightened to live this day.

This soldier is right, Xiao Chen's name is really useful in the regiment headquarters. Only five minutes after the phone call, someone ran out:

"Comrade Xiao Chen, please follow me to the regiment commander's office."

Familiar with the way, naturally not so much trouble. When Xiao Chen walked into the regiment commander's office, Wang Qingrui was working on a document.

In the warm room, Xiao Chen had been waiting quietly. When Wang Qingrui finished processing the documents at hand and looked up at him, his eyes showed satisfaction.

"Yes, I can calm down after going to the military academy for half a year. You already knew the situation of the Seventh Company, right? ”

Xiao Chen nodded: "Wu Liuyi has been in contact with me by letter, and I can learn about every personnel change in the Seventh Company within a week." ”

"So you also know that there are only two people left in the Seventh Company now?"

"Yes, so I'm coming back, hoping to be the third."

Wang Qingrui was stunned.

He once again felt the stubbornness of the Seventh Company from this soldier, which made him feel guilty and sad about the Seventh Company from the bottom of his heart again.

Since the moment of reorganization, the Seventh Company has not made any requests to the regiment. This army gritted its teeth and watched the blunt knife cut flesh one by one, which made him, an old superior, in awe again and again.

"Okay, you can go now, I will inform the sixth company of the arrangement of the food. Do you have any more requirements? ”

Xiao Chen shook his head and nodded again:

"It's good to be able to return to the Seventh Company, but Commander, I hope to be able to go home to see my parents a week before I start school."

"This request is not too much, you go, the group will arrange it."
