Chapter Ninety-Five: Post-War Trivia

After returning to the base, Chen Ming ate and exercised as usual.

Laugh and laugh, and everything looks fine. But Chris resolutely did not allow him to attend work anymore, and Chen Ming did not shirk anything. I still have five days to send the end of the dispatch period, so there is really no need to insist on it anymore.

The next day, after Chris was at work. Chen Ming left the psychological counseling room to go to Chance, and after three months in the war zone, Chen Ming found that he had no familiar people except Chris. It's a pity that Chance's company left the base last night.

Boredom can only wander around, or go to the homemade shooting range outside the barracks to shoot guns. When Chris came back in the evening, the two ate and chatted together.

Five days passed quickly, and Chance's company still did not return. Chen Ming packed his luggage, disassembled the TAC-338 sniper rifle and put it in the gun case. The automatic rifle Chen Ming has already turned in.

"Have a nice trip, Chen."

Chris took a special day off today to drive Chen Ming to the Basra base. Although Chen Ming spent most of his time on the Fallujah front, his real base was in Basra.

Chris and Chen Ming found the person in charge of the station, the bearded lieutenant colonel before. Chris handed over the certificates and mission records issued by the Navy SEALs and Fallujah Base to the other party to fill in Chen Ming's training records.

The lieutenant colonel took the document and looked at it casually, signed his name on the training record, and stuffed several documents into a file bag and handed them to Chen Ming.

The sniper duo of Chen Ming and Chris is now famous throughout the Iraco battlefield. In more than two months, the two of them killed more than 160 enemies, which is not something that any team can do.

Coming out of the colonel's office, Chen Ming and Chris had a meal at Basra Station at noon. In the afternoon, a transport plane transporting Chen Ming back to China landed on time at Basra airport.

Saying goodbye to Chris, Chen Ming walked onto the plane with a backpack and a gun case.

Chen Ming's luggage is not much. Compared with when he came, Chen Ming only brought back a box containing a sniper rifle, a mild PTSD psychological assessment, and a bronze star medal issued by the theater command.

After two distribution transfers, Chen Ming once again stepped on the land of Pensacola Air Station. Different from the last time he was sent to practice, this time Chen Ming came back with a feeling of being in a different world.

Go back to the dormitory and put your luggage away. The dorm room was empty, and neither White nor John had returned. Chen Ming didn't care, and after changing into a regular suit, he packed a few more clothes and brought some documents and reports to open the door.

Chen Ming first went to the training management office to find Lieutenant Colonel Kang En and submitted the training records and other documents. After the verification of Lieutenant Colonel Kangen, Chen Ming's practical training was successfully completed. Next, Chen Ming can start to enjoy a month-long vacation.

"Lieutenant Colonel, I would like to apply for a convoy mission."

Chen Ming, who was about to leave Lieutenant Colonel Conn's office, suddenly thought of the advice given by the psychiatrist at the Fallujah base, and turned around and asked.

"Convoys? Bald eagles do not yet have a precedent for officers to serve as soldiers' convoys. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Conn asked suspiciously, his face a little ugly.

Since Chen Ming first came, he saw that Chen Ming was uncomfortable, although he never said it, but Conn himself had to admit that he had a certain degree of racial discrimination.

If it were someone else, he would have appreciated the officer's initiative to escort the soldier home. But if it was Chen Ming, he now felt that Chen Ming was just making trouble for himself again.

"Just because there's no precedent doesn't mean the rules don't allow it. Lieutenant Colonel. ”

From the beginning of the self-purchase of military uniforms, Chen Ming had already felt the subtle malice of the lieutenant colonel in front of him. It's just that he never catches him usually, and the two of them don't tear their faces. Chen Ming couldn't be polite when he spoke to him.

"Then you can go to the Ministry of Defense website and get the mission yourself."

Lieutenant Colonel Kang En was not angry and directly sent Chen Ming away. For more than a year, the limited conversations between the two of them have almost always been like this, and he has never been angry, but he has kept it all in his heart. After Chen Ming left, Lieutenant Colonel Conn set his eyes on Chen Ming's psychological evaluation report.

Chen Ming, who left Lieutenant Colonel Kang's office, went to the parking lot and found the small pickup truck given to him by Major General Zhang. It's time to return it to Major General Zhang, and you can buy one by yourself in your current pocket. In addition, if you go to the battlefield, you must report to the embassy when you come back.

Leaving his backpack in the back seat, now that Chen Ming has money in his pocket, he can choose to live in a motel or hotel. The previous sleeping bag was honorably retired.

The advantage of being alone and having a good economy is that you can take a trip at any time. Even if it is getting late, Chen Ming can comfortably drive the car and embark on the journey.

Unlike when he came, now that the time economy is abundant, Chen Ming tasted different delicacies along the way, and moved forward. On some deserted roads, Chen Ming can also open a bottle of beer. Listening to the music and blowing the wind, drinking a little wine and driving the car.

It's very refreshing, and it seems that my mood has become less depressed than when I was in Irako. Occasionally, when it is dawn in China, Chen Ming can also call Huang Huai. Although he felt that Huang Huai's attitude was much colder, Chen Ming didn't take it seriously.

Anyway, it is impossible for the police to take care of these road sections in normal times, and Chen Ming, who has been abroad for almost two years, now knows very well how limited the local police are in Bald Eagle.

"What? Are you suffering from post-war syndrome now? ”

In the office of the military attache of the embassy, Major General Zhang looked at the psychological assessment report on Chen Ming in his hand and exclaimed.

"That's what it says on the assessment report, mildly, and I felt a little wrong when I was in Iraco. But in the past ten days, I have played easily all the way, and I feel much better. ”

Chen Ming sat across from his desk and shrugged helplessly.

"Need some help? For example, we will connect you with a psychiatrist. Or arrange for you to return to China to meet your relatives and friends, so that they can accompany you more? ”

"Thanks, but no more. When I came back from the war zone, they gave me the contact information of a psychiatrist who worked with the Bald Eagle Army. Go to him, and the cost will be borne by the Bald Eagle army. ”

"I came here this time, first, to report the affairs of the war zone to the state. The second is to give the car back to you. Thank you for your help, this car has helped me a lot for more than a year. ”

After Chen Ming finished gratefully, he returned the car keys to Major General Zhang with both hands.

"Well, knowing that your kid is making money now, we are relieved. Originally, the state could only squeeze out a thousand dollars for you every month, and our embassy was very guilty, but now we are relieved to see that you can mix well in Bald Eagle. ”

Major General Zhang was not polite and took the key frankly.

More than a year ago, when Chen Ming reported to be a band, he began to pay attention to Chen Ming's beach park band. The development of the past year is naturally in the eyes. To put it bluntly, Chen Ming's income in Bald Eagle is now higher than that of him, a major general.

"Since you are sure that you will be able to cure your psychological problems on your own, then I will not say more. You are also 21 years old this year, and you are 22 years old, and you can be regarded as graduating from college and entering the society in China. If you have difficulties or problems, you must call us as soon as possible, even if you fail this study, it is better than ruining your life because of this psychological problem. ”

"We won't blame you for this, and neither will the country. You go to Irako, our embassy voted in favor. If something goes wrong, we and the state will definitely be responsible to the end. You don't have any pressure, I won't keep you, take advantage of the vacation, and have fun! ”

After seeing the child who was hit in the head by an electric drill, I heard the words of Major General Zhang again. The feeling of feeling in my heart is indescribable, and there is nothing more satisfying than having a country backing you up. What reason do you have not to work hard for the prosperity of this country?

Chen Ming solemnly raised his arm and saluted the national flag behind Major General Zhang.
