Zhang Haiyang is a good seedling.

After the physical examination the next day, Li Zhan took a fancy to this little fat man who was slightly overweight at a glance. However, Zhang Haiyang's other physical examination items are very good, but if the weight is exceeded, Li Zhan can relax the conditions for him a little.

Zhang Haiyang is a sophomore, and his future employment counterpart is avionics, with excellent grades. Avionics major, it's too right. Li Zhan thought ahead, in the future, the flying shark will not only be a pilot but also a weapon operator. The latter has higher requirements for avionics knowledge, which is the high requirements for air crews in the era of third- and fourth-generation aircraft.

However, Li Zhan first faced Zhang Haiyang's father.

Zhang Haiyang himself is very willing to be a pilot, according to him, even if he can't be a pilot, even if he is an ordinary soldier, he is willing, but he must be in the navy.

Why?

His father was an old navyman.

It stands to reason that military families should be more supportive of their children joining the army, not to mention that Zhang Haiyang's father Zhang Chengjun is still a veteran of the Kazakh Navy. However, Zhang Haiyang informed Li Zhan that his father was strongly opposed to him joining the army.

Li Zhan went to the dry rest house to visit Zhang Haiyang's home.

Section Chief Liu Yang briefed Li Zhan on the road and said, "Mr. Zhang retired early from his division-level post, and his retirement prerequisites were for the deputy army. He is not a local, two years ago his son was admitted to Changdian University, he wanted to settle down in Chang'an and organize care, so he was arranged in a dry rest house in Chang'an. ”

"Oh yes, Mr. Zhang was injured." Liu Yang pointed to his temple, "There is shrapnel in the head, it is said that it has not been taken out, the old man has a very strange personality, and it may have something to do with his injuries." ”

Li Zhan was puzzled and asked, "Old man? Shouldn't you be too old, right? ”

"He is over sixty, and he is almost forty years old before he got married and had children, and he is quite fond of this son." Liu Yang said with a smile.

This can be regarded as a child in his later years, no wonder he is pampered.

Li Zhan said, "Section Chief Liu, do you know Zhang Lao's situation very well? ”

"That's right." Section Chief Liu Yang said with a wry smile, "There are a bunch of old Red Army veterans in the cadre retreat center, and Zhang Lao is relatively young, but he has a lot of temper and a bad temper, and he goes to condolence during the New Year's holidays. ”

Li Zhan couldn't help laughing, "It's understandable, old revolutionary, after a lifetime of fighting, few people who can get to this day are good-tempered." ”

"Mr. Zhang is more special, he fought in the August Fourth Naval Battle, and the cadres in the rest house are all old cadres during the liberation period of the Anti-Japanese War, he is the only old cadre who has been in contact with modern naval warfare, I heard that he often engages in war games with other old cadres, and then he quarrels." Liu Yang said.

Li Zhan has a picture in front of him, old children and old children, people are children when they are old, how interesting it is, besides, it is a group of old children who have come from the blood and fire to lay down the great country. He had heard people say before that in the work of the rest house, first of all, you must have a good temper, and secondly, you must know how to take care of children, and you must coax old cadres like children. There is only one purpose - to make the veteran cadres happy every day and live a little longer, because they are the treasures of the party and the country.

The most expensive treasures in the world are actually them.

Every year, the first thing to participate in the Spring Festival is the group worship of the old cadres in Beijing.

As he spoke, he arrived at the dry rest house, a compound in the style of the seventies and eighties, in the downtown area. The reason why many of the troops' garrison camps are in the downtown area is because they were all built many years ago, and they were not downtown areas back then, and after several decades of rapid development, the area of the urban area has been continuously expanded, and the suburbs have become downtown areas.

It was about nine o'clock in the morning, after registering the documents and entering, Liu Yang explained the intention of the cadre rest house who came to receive him, and the administrator smiled and pointed to the "front-line command post" and said, "Elder Zhang pointed out in front that they will have a combat meeting every Monday, March and Friday." ”

"Front-line command post?" Pei Lei couldn't help but be surprised.

The administrator smiled and said, "It's just a sign, it's actually an activity center, and the old leaders asked to change it to a front-line command post, and put up a sign to arrange the equipment and equipment that the troops will obsolete, and the old leaders are happy." ”

Pei Lei couldn't help laughing, "I really know how to play." ”

Liu Yang said strangely, "Most of the old leaders have participated in the war, and they are interested in this after fighting all their lives. ”

"This is good, go check it out." Li Zhan was interested.

Liu Yang asked the administrator to be busy with his own going, Liu Yang often came over to condole, and the administrator was not hypocritical, and said apologetically, "Old Chen and Aunt Lin quarreled again, I have to go over and take a look, you can go shopping casually, and call me directly if you have any instructions." ”

"This is the babysitter." Pei Lei watched the administrator spread his legs and ran away, and said to himself.

Liu Yang said, "It's much more difficult than a nanny, and the work of the rest house is actually not easy to do." Of course, some people think that the resources of working in the cadre retreat are rising quickly, after all, they serve so many old leaders. In fact, most of the old leaders are very principled, and their children are strict, not to mention others. ”

"That's right, the old revolutionaries are very principled." Li Zhan deeply agrees, his grandfather is this kind of person, and he is unwilling to use the power in his hands to open the door for his children and future generations.

It's good that an old cadre activity center has been converted into a front-line command post, and there are signs hanging up at the gate, and there are sentry posts with guns! Although the two soldiers standing guard wore Type 07 desert camouflage uniforms, they were equipped with classic Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, old-fashioned bullet bags, and classic gun holding postures with the butt on the ground.

After entering the gate, the style of painting changed a little, as far as the eye could see, there were more than a dozen bridge tables, and there were more than twenty old ladies sitting around, the old man was not one, and they didn't feel strange at all when they saw Li Zhan. These old ladies are no different from the old ladies you usually meet in the vegetable market in the morning and on the way to the vegetable market, but if you listen to their speeches, you will find the difference, the level of speech is high, reasonable, often quote scriptures, and you can find a basis for every sentence from *** thoughts.

If you think that it is just a higher level of knowledge, then you are wrong, these old ladies in their sixties and seventies also have a lot of elementary school education, and their knowledge is all learned in the army. The most important thing is that you look at them like ordinary local aunts, and then look at their treatment level can scare you to death.

The lowest ones are all at the deputy division level, and the highest ones have a deputy corps level, and almost all of them are the families of the old leaders, who got married when they were doing the revolution, and all the way to the present, the two of them have dedicated their lives to the army.

You just say that the seventy-year-old lady with gray hair and short-sighted glasses who sits upright, is called Dai Anbang, and looks more like a retired old teacher. Her husband died 20 years ago, she has been working in the army, participated in two counterattacks, and later came to the construction corps, engaged in military medicine for a lifetime, before retirement was the deputy army, after retirement to enjoy the regular army level treatment, back then called the deputy corps level.

After arriving at the dry rest house, the family members have the backbone. Last time, Aunt Zhou, Mrs. Zhang's wife, lost her temper, and Aunt Zhou made a phone call: "Sister Dai, the bad old man in my family dislikes me for cooking badly, and I've eaten it for decades, and I actually said that it wasn't delicious, isn't this a deliberate quarrel?" Then Sister Dai passed, and then Mr. Zhang turned off the fire.

In terms of level, there are few people who are higher than Grandma Dai, and in terms of experience, Lao Dai went to the front twice and later worked in the construction corps for more than 20 years. Grandma Dai called Zhang Lao "Little Zhang Xiao Zhang" like this, and Zhang Lao saw that Grandma Dai had to say hello in a proper manner, "Sister, have you eaten?"

In addition, Lao Dai is a lesbian, and no matter how old the retired official is, it is not easy to compete with others. There are also several regional deputy veteran leaders living in the cadre rest house, and there is nothing they can do about Comrade Dai.

For this reason, the old men of the cadre retreat also held a number of special operations meetings to discuss "how to more effectively fight against the families of women headed by Lao Dai." However, after each meeting came up with a battle plan, they encountered insurmountable difficulties in the process of implementation. was so angry that the commander-in-chief at that time, the deputy old leader of a certain region, slapped the table and scolded his mother, saying: "You old people are really old, you can't do anything well!" ”。

So for a long time, the women's families headed by Grandma Dai formed an overwhelming advantage over the old men, and various tactics such as roundabout side attacks, division and encirclement, encirclement and reinforcement, and concentrating superior forces to annihilate the enemy were used in a smooth manner, making the old military leaders lose their armor and complain bitterly.

Just now, the administrator ran to deal with the daily firefight between Chen Lao and Aunt Lin, and that was because Aunt Lin had not yet used the nuclear weapon of "Sister Dai".

Walking down the hallway, before I arrived, I heard a fierce quarrel coming from the innermost room where the war room was hung.

Liu Yang smiled and whispered, "The old leaders are discussing tactics again. ”

Li Zhan said, "It should be called a tactical discussion. ”

Liu Yang didn't catch this stalk, and smiled disapprovingly, until she gently pushed open the door and saw a group of old men fighting for red ears that she suddenly understood the meaning of "tactical discussion", and suddenly couldn't help but smile crookedly.

Signaling everyone not to speak, Li Zhan quietly stood aside and listened. However, he noticed that there were a few medical staff in medical suits and emergency equipment in the corner, which was a little strange.

Look at this fake war room, the layout style is from the seventies and eighties, giving people a sense of déjà vu on the Laoshan front, the radio stations are old-fashioned, sand tables, large battle maps, and the old three. All the veteran leaders and cadres attending the meeting wore 81-style camouflage uniforms, and none of them wore military ranks, and they looked like retired old migrant workers.

"Lao Liang, you don't understand the purpose of the battle at all! I repeat, the purpose of our campaign is to liberate Taiwan! It's not a life-and-death war with the United States! All tactics must be carried out around the purpose of the campaign, and all tactical arrangements must serve the purpose of the campaign! It was Zhang Haiyang's father, Zhang Zai, who spoke excitedly, pointing to another old cadre with a similar age and a national character face.

Zhang Haiyang, who was standing beside Li Zhan, had always looked like a transparent person, and at this time he wanted to step forward and tell his father that the army was coming, but he was dragged by Li Zhan and motioned him to stand still. Li Zhan wanted to know the opinions of these old leaders who were no longer in their positions.

Lao Liang retorted unceremoniously, "Is it so simple to liberate Taiwan!" If we decide to recover Taiwan by force, we must prepare for the worst! Get ready for an all-out war with the United States! I warn you! The United States has the help of Japan, and you know the strength of the little devils, the scale is not large, but their military strength is not weak. In addition, if the United States lures India or even Vietnam to open a second front, we will face a dangerous situation of fighting on both fronts! ”

"You're a bull! I will not say whether the Americans dare to intervene at the risk of all-out war, even if they dare to intervene in a local war, which is very likely to be limited! India and Vietnam are at war against me? Lao Liang, you are stupid to stay in the rest house! Do they dare! Don't we have helpers? Pakistan let you eat? Lao Zhang slapped the table and pointed at it, domineering and leaking.

Lao Liang was also angry, and slapped the table harder, "According to your strategic thinking, we must suffer a big loss!" No matter what you say, I insist on at least three years of war preparations, enough war readiness materials to be consumed for at least five years, and troop replenishment resources must keep up! Be mentally prepared to break the boat! It's always better than your short-sightedness! ”

"You! You are growing up with other people's ambition to destroy your own prestige! I don't know what the situation of your army is, but I dare to say that our navy has the ability to recover Taiwan by force! According to your thinking, after spending three years of war preparations, is there still secrecy to speak of? The Americans are not stupid, as soon as they find out that you are making such preparations, twelve aircraft carrier battle groups will drive over! My principle is blitzkrieg! Hit him by surprise! By the time the Americans reacted, our troops would have landed in Taipei long ago! A fait accompli has been formed, and will the Americans dare to intervene by force at the risk of a full-scale war? Do you even know that once a full-scale war starts, a chain reaction will be formed, and by that time it will be a world war! Americans, does he dare! Lao Zhang vehemently retorted.

"That's it!"

Li Lao, the deputy regional veteran leader who presided over the combat meeting, was sitting in a wheelchair, he paused his crutches vigorously, his bark-like face, and his eyes in his collapsed eye sockets were full of murderous aura, he glanced at the two of them and said, "Whether to fight or not is a decision from above, and we will not discuss it." How to fight is the task of you leading troops, Xiao Zhang, you first talk about your lightning tactics, what kind of play do you plan to play? ”

As he spoke, he pointed at Zhang Lao with his cane.

"Yes! Commander! ”

Zhang Laoli saluted, then picked up the baton and pointed to the Fujian area on the sand table, and said clearly with ambition, "Commander-in-chief, the principle of my campaign plan is a blitzkrieg under the conditions of fast and modernization. First of all, I want to use tactical missiles to strike at Taiwan's ports, wharves, power stations, barracks, air defense positions, radar stations, and other military facilities. ”

"Fifty battalions of tactical missiles? Are you kidding me! Liang Lao couldn't help but sneer.

Zhang Lao glared.

Li Lao said, "Xiao Liang, don't interject, listen to Xiao Zhang!" ”

"Yes!" Liang Lao had to shut up.

Zhang Lao continued......
