The green car that has more than a day to "go shopping and eat" has to speed on the road. took Chen Ming from the north of the motherland to the southernmost point.

When passing by Yangcheng, Chen Ming hesitated again and again, resisting the urge to go home and have a look. Although he was not asked to report the time, because of Lao A's training camp, he was late for reporting. But the task I received was to go to the Dongjiang base to report, so I should arrive as quickly as possible.

The train stopped at Dongjiang Station, and Chen Ming had to settle a lunch after getting off the train. It has to be said that the cities that give the most priority to opening up may not be obvious in later generations. But now, the same meal can be more than twice as expensive in Dongjiang as in the north.

Filling his stomach, Chen Ming stopped a taxi on the side of the road and went straight to the Dongjiang base. Dongjiang City is surrounded by the sea on both sides, and the Dongjiang base is also one of the main bases of the Navy's Southeast Fleet, so my brother set off very simply.

After settling the fare, Chen Ming stood at the gate of the Dongjiang base in a navy uniform with white on the top and blue on the bottom. Suddenly a little homesick. In this life, he was in the base in front of him from the time he was born, and he didn't leave Dongjiang with his mother until junior high school.

"Hello comrade, who are you looking for?"

The sentry at the gate has been paying attention to this cadet soldier outside the door for a long time. After notifying the duty room, a squad leader ran out of the duty room and asked after giving a military salute.

"Hello, I'm here for an internship report. This is an internship document issued by the Naval Academy. ”

Chen Ming returned the salute and responded while taking out the supporting documents from the inner pocket of his jacket.

"Internship? It's been a few days since the intern college student soldiers came, why were you so late? Let's go, I'll take you to the chief of staff. ”

The squad leader was a little puzzled, but didn't say much. After all, these things are not his purview. After verifying that the documents were correct, the squad leader brought Chen Ming into the base.

did not refuse the kindness of the squad leader, after all, it has been more than seven years since he left. Looking at the rapid changes in Dongjiang City outside, who knows if the layout of the buildings inside the base has changed.

"That's right, squad leader. I'll ask you about something. ”

"Don't ask what you shouldn't."

Chen Ming was choked by the squad leader's words.

"It's not a secret? I just want to ask, is the previous Captain Lu of our base still there? It turned out that the captain of the 163 ship, Lu Huaicheng. ”

The squad leader turned his head and looked at Chen Ming suspiciously.

"Do you know the Chief of Staff?"

"Chief of Staff? You said that Captain Lu is now the chief of staff? Which detachment. ”

Before Chen Ming left the family courtyard of the Dongjiang base, Uncle Lu Huaicheng was the captain of the colonel, and now seven and a half years have passed. How could you not jump to the chief of staff of the base so quickly, Major General.

After all, the rank of colonel at the division level is the culmination of many officers' lives. If you want to be promoted from a colonel to a general, you not only need qualifications and merit, but you also need to go to the National Defense University in the capital for further study. Only after successful graduation can you be promoted to the military rank.

"What detachment, Chief of Staff Lu is the chief of staff of our Dongjiang base. Okay, that's it, you can go up to the fourth floor and turn left to find it. ”

After thanking the squad leader, Chen Ming went upstairs with his luggage.

Not to mention why people in these years want to stay in the government unit, the fourth floor. Not to mention taking the stairs, it won't take long to climb the building. But this time, three to five minutes were wasted. I have to put down my luggage and salute people without stopping.

In this era when it is difficult to retain non-commissioned officers in grassroots companies, this organ is in a small building. The cadres of the two bars are like voles, and one will come out one at a time.

All the way to the door of the office with the chief of staff sign hanging, Chen Mingli was standing.

"Report!"

"Please come in."

"Chen Ming, a student of the Ship Command Department of the Naval Ship Academy, came to report!"

"Xiao Ming, haha."

When Lu Huaicheng saw Chen Ming, he already had a guess in his heart, and after listening to Chen Ming's words. Standing up happily, he walked around the wide desk and walked in front of Chen Ming.

"Come, sit. I haven't seen him for many years, but he has become a strong man and a handsome guy. ”

Chen Ming was not polite, after all, he grew up watching others when he was a child. He picked up the kettle and filled the water cup in front of Lu Huaicheng with water, and then sat down at the bottom.

Lu Huaicheng looked at Chen Ming with a smile and did not refuse.

"Looking at the way you look now, I think of when you were a child, when you came to my house to grab chicken legs."

"Hehe, who made Uncle Lu make the chicken thighs delicious. I still remember that smell. ”

Chen Ming smiled wryly. When he was a child, Lu Huaicheng's daughter was lost and his wife died. Basically, these little kids in the military family house are regarded as their own children and nephews. The chicken leg was said to be snatched by Chen Ming and these little guys, but it was deliberately made for them to eat. After all, he is alone, usually eats in the canteen, and there is no need to go home and start the fire at all.

"Okay, go to my house that night. I'll make it for you. ”

Lu Huaicheng was still smiling, obviously very happy to see the old man. Especially Chen Ming is a human being in two lives after all, although he did not have a deep accumulation of things in his previous life, he also behaved better and more polite than his friends of the same age when he was a child. Therefore, Lu Huaicheng can be said to have the deepest memory of him.

"Let's not talk about that, you can walk around the base in the afternoon, take a look, and come home at mealtime. I heard from the people on the other side of the Ship Courtyard that you strongly requested to be assigned to the Dongjiang base. Then I want to ask you, what do you want to do when you come back this time? ”

Although I am currently interning at the Dongjiang base, in fact, there are generally no problems. The internship site is about the same as the allocated land after graduation. Therefore, Lu Huaicheng's words are not wrong.

"No. 8 sea, I'm here to take over."

Chen Ming paused, but still raised his head and answered Lu Huaicheng's question with a smile.

The No. 8 sea area is not only the pimple in Chen Ming's heart, but also the pimple in Lu Huaicheng's heart, and the pimple in the entire Dongjiang base.

"Okay, ambitious!"

When Lu Huaicheng heard this, he became more and more happy. Well, as long as these young people are not frightened by the sea, then the navy will one day be able to stride out.

"But I'm going to talk about the ugly things first. In the No. 8 sea area, the hydrological characteristics are complex and the sea conditions are unknown. That's not something you can solve now, a hairy young man who has just come out of the shipyard. First exercise well, and when you are really familiar with the warship and the sea in front of us, we will go to declare war on the No. 8 sea area! ”

"Yes, guaranteed obedience to the organization's assignment!"

Chen Ming immediately stood up and said.

He is not stunned, he knows how dangerous it is to let his father die, and for so many years, the Dongjiang base and even the Southeast Fleet have not conquered the No. 8 sea area. He should really train for a few years first, master more professional skills, and be more familiar with the ocean that will gallop in the future, so that he can have the foundation to fight in the No. 8 sea area.

"Good! That's the case for the first time, and now the assigned national defense students of Central South University are training in the Marine Corps. Tomorrow you go to Instructor Chen Jianjun to report and train with them. ”

"Ah, the Marines?!"

Doesn't this mean that you have to toss on land again?

Chen Ming was stunned.

"yes, what's wrong? Any questions? ”

Lu Huaicheng looked at Chen Ming's wide mouth and asked with some doubts.

This is very embarrassing, as soon as the slogan is shouted, he turns his head and is slapped in the face.

"No problem!"

Chen Ming replied stubbornly.

I'm special, I'm afraid I'm not a fake navy?
