Chapter 50: Back to the Seventh Company
"I haven't seen you for more than half a year, but you've made a big news."
It was still that office, but now Xiao Chen was able to familiarly tell the models and parameters of various combat vehicles in the few pictures posted on the wall behind the regiment commander's chair. If necessary, Xiao Chen can even say the data on the weapons and ammunition they use.
However, this is the regiment commander's office, and it is no longer the examination room of the division training center.
Xiao Chen is no longer facing a strict and harsh teacher, but Wang Qingrui, the head of the regiment who has always been gentle but serious inside.
The one who brought Xiao Chen back directly was the deputy head of the 702 regiment.
Wang Qingrui listened to his relay, only to know that Xiao Chen actually won the first place in the assessment in this intensive training, and even used the sentence "I am the 4,956th soldier of the Seventh Steel Company" to politely refuse the invitation of Deputy Division Commander Kang.
It can be said that Xiao Chen has greatly grown the face of the 702 regiment.
Wang Qingrui liked the stunned young man who was sent to the Seventh Company by him just now, but Xiao Chen, an outstanding talent like Xiao Chen, who was determined to forge ahead and had hills and valleys in his chest, also looked at it with a glint in his eyes.
Xiao Chen straightened his chest.
For the praise he deserves, he is now able to respond calmly:
"Report to the regiment commander, everything is for the improvement of combat effectiveness, this is the responsibility and obligation of a soldier."
Xiao Chen didn't feel that he was saying this in order to improve his spiritual image.
Because when it came to learning to drive a chariot, he was not urged by any external motivation. Others may want to stay in the army for a long time, but Xiao Chen's existing conditions will not be bothered by this.
There was only one reason why he went, and that was to contribute his strength to the Seventh Steel Company.
Of course, Wang Qingrui knew that Xiao Chen was not talking empty words, so he didn't show any special joy or special questioning, but just nodded:
"Alright, you can go back. You are smart and hardworking, and you believe that many complex things are simple for you. I hope you keep that mindset. ”
Answering very solemnly, Xiao Chen withdrew from the regiment commander's office and walked into the Seventh Company along the road he was familiar with.
From the training center to the regiment headquarters, from the regiment headquarters to the company headquarters, Xiao Chen's water and rice did not enter along the way, his stomach was rumbling with hunger, and he was thinking that today was the weekend, could he put down his things and go to the small restaurant to have a meal to cushion his stomach.
However, this impulse still has to be endured, Xiao Chen must report to the company commander, and procedures such as food relations and task arrangements still need to be handled under the guidance of the company commander.
Thinking of whether his appearance would bring a surprise to Gao Cheng, Xiao Chen grinned.
On duty was a recruit who came to the Seventh Company with Xiao Chen, and he didn't recognize Xiao Chen the first time he saw him.
"Comrade, may I ask you what is the matter?"
"Yang Xiao, I'm Xiao Chen, why can't I recognize it?"
Yang Xiao, who had lost weight, looked at Xiao Chen, who was much stronger than himself but darker, rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and then exclaimed in a low voice regardless of discipline:
"Xiao Chen, are you finally back? Hey, isn't it fun to drive a chariot? Those of us who sit on chariots have been tortured during this time. ”
As an ordinary armored infantryman, the cockpit of the infantry combat vehicle is strictly forbidden to enter, and it is the driver's territory.
Yang Xiao was very curious about this, and when he was shaking in the chariot before, he got out of the car and scolded those drivers in private.
This time, there is a close foot chariot driver, so why do you have to ask the head.
Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head: "Have you ever ridden a bicycle?" ”
Seeing Yang Xiao nodded, Xiao Chen, who had a wicked smile on his face, continued: "Driving a chariot is like riding a bicycle after drinking. ”
"How?"
"I feel like I'm going to heaven."
After saying this, Xiao Chen directly crossed the tall thin man who was amused and leaned back, and walked out a few meters before turning back:
"Take it easy when you laugh and be careful to picket it. The company commander is in the office, right? ”
"I'm here, I just came back not long ago, hurry up and let me laugh for a while."
This Yang Xiao is the pistachio of their class, the same as Bai Tiejun in the third class. However, this guy's training performance is much stronger than that of Bai Tiejun, and he is also very diligent, so in Xiao Chen's new recruits, he can be regarded as a quite outstanding character.
Ignoring the heartier laughter coming from behind him, Xiao Chen came to the door of the company commander's office with his bag.
Indoor Gao Cheng was forced to ask people to scold and scold because Shi Jin had just ignored his own opposition, and the instructor Hong Xingguo couldn't persuade him well. At first glance, I heard the sound of a report outside the door, and I thought that Shi Jin was going to do something again, so I responded very unhappily:
"Get in."
Xiao Chen pushed the door and saw that he was just in time to meet Gao Cheng's angry gaze, and in the next second, this gaze quickly turned into surprise and a little satisfaction.
"Are you willing to come back?"
Both times, I went to the regiment headquarters from one place to meet the regiment commander, and then returned to the company headquarters, so this time Xiao Chen's backpack and bag were placed in the same place, and he smiled at Gao Cheng in some nostalgic tone:
"Company commander, what are you talking about, the Seventh Company is my base camp, no matter how much you wave outside, you can't lose your base camp. You see, I just came out of the regimental commander, and I came back to report to you. ”
Gao Cheng got up angrily and took out a bottle of water from the side of the table and smashed it into Xiao Chen's arms, just like nine months ago.
It seems that the moment he smashed things vented his inner anger, or he was happy to see Xiao Chen, a good seedling, but the sullenness of Shi Jinsheng just now disappeared.
"Why didn't you even get a notice, and you sneaked back? Don't you fail the training camp and be driven back? We can't afford to lose this person. ”
Liang Yue of Class 8 hadn't come back yet, but Xiao Chen felt in advance that the more Gao Cheng thought about it, the more restless he felt in his heart. But looking at Xiao Chen's smiling appearance, it doesn't seem to be what he thinks.
What the hell is going on? Gao Cheng was a little puzzled.
Xiao Chen grinned: "Company commander, don't worry, be careful of getting on fire." I'll show you something good. ”
As he spoke, he took out a red plastic document from his pocket, stepped in front of Gao Cheng, and held the small document in the air with both hands with a rather ceremonial movement, waiting for Gao Cheng to take over.
Gao Cheng angrily took the document in Xiao Chen's hand, but kicked forward lightly with his right foot:
"what, get back to where you came."
Just swept his eyes to the cover of the document, Gao Cheng was a little stunned. Immediately, the unconcealable happiness in the corner of his eyes made the instructor Hong Xingguo unable to hide his curiosity, and came over together, ready to see what was written on the document.
