Lu Huaicheng took Chen Ming back to his home in Yangcheng. After Chen Ming and Tan Qiuwen stayed, they had dinner together.

There was no expected storm, even if it hadn't returned for years. After returning home, Tan Qiuwen just said with a flat expression, "I'm back." ”

It's just that the act of going out to buy vegetables in a hurry and the serious overabundance of dishes on the table undoubtedly reveal Tan Qiuwen's intentions.

It's just that Chen Ming said that he was going to leave home tomorrow, so that the atmosphere of the meal was slightly heavy.

Looking at the photos of his father when he was young on the cupboard, Chen Ming sang the classic military song "Night of the Military Port" in later generations.

Lu Huaicheng and Tan Qiuwen, as well as the secretary and the driver who were eating were all quietly listening to Chen Ming's singing.

Soon, the singing was over.

Lu Huaicheng was pleased to tell Chen Ming to write down the lyrics and music and give them to him to take away, and Tan Qiuwen's expression seemed to be a little less resistant.

She looked at her son and her husband on the cupboard. They are too similar, not only in appearance, but also in affection at this time. Looking at her son's gentle singing, she seemed to see that when she was not married, the handsome young sailor was also so gentle to comfort herself, saying Don't worry, wait for me to come back.

The son has been sensible since he was a child, but since the death of his husband. It's rare to see the smiling face of his childhood on Chen Ming's face. She knew that she couldn't stop her son's decision, and saw Chen Ming's current appearance.

Tan Qiuwen didn't know whether to be relieved or sad.

drove Chen Ming out of the door and told him to take his business seriously.

Then the next person sat at the table, looking at the leftovers on the table. Tan Qiuwen finally couldn't help crying.

She didn't know where Chen Ming was going, she only knew that he was in Dongjiang. But what to do, she didn't know, she couldn't and wouldn't ask. Because, the person who used to be on the cupboard was the same.

Chen Ming took away the violin he used from home and got into Lu Huaicheng's car.

Now, he understood Lu Huaicheng's intentions. Let him solve the ideological problems of his comrades-in-arms on the boat, just to let him communicate and exchange more with his comrades-in-arms.

Chen Ming knew that he was not very good at speaking, so he chose to bring the piano. He believes that many times, music is more effective than language.

Lu Huaicheng saw it in his eyes and didn't say anything. The task, he gave it, he didn't care what Chen Ming did, as long as there was a good result, it was enough.

The car drove in the night, looking at the lights on the highway. Chen Ming suddenly felt a little like a world away.

He hadn't been out for a long time and was out and about.

The car drove directly to the crew quarters of the submarine detachment. After Lu Huaicheng explained the situation to the head on duty, Chen Ming said goodbye to Lu Huaicheng with his luggage and turned around to live in the dormitory.

At the morning exercise assembly the next morning, Chen Ming met Wang Changming, the captain of the 401 boat.

Wang Changming's first feeling to Chen Ming was Fangzheng. The national character face, the height of 180, the three stars on the colonel's epaulettes, no more, no less, evenly spread on his shoulders.

Captain Wang introduced Chen Ming to the other comrades-in-arms, and after the morning exercise together. Captain Wang called Chen Ming.

"Chen Ming, the chief of staff has told us about your situation. Don't put too much pressure on you, if there's anything you don't understand on the boat, feel free to ask me. ”

"Captain, I've brought a violin. I'm not very good at talking... So, I would like to ask if this is compliant. ”

"It's okay, it's quite versatile. It is also good to enrich the mental life of the crew, but once you hear the battle siren, you must not make any noise. Do you understand? ”

"Yes!"

Chen Ming definitely had to reply. Although he had not worked on a submarine, he was clear about this regulation.

"Now for your task. We are short on time, and the 401 boat has already arrived at our base. This Type 091 nuclear submarine is already a thirty-year-old navy in service. At most, in half a year, new nuclear submarines will join our Dongjiang base. Therefore, our task now is to find out the operation of nuclear submarines in the shortest possible time. ”

Captain Wang paused for a moment and continued.

"In the past few days, I will give the crew a run-in training. In three days, we will go to sea. The time is a month, and now you go to the boat to find a squad leader named Li Siming. During your time on the 401 boat, let him take you. ”

"Then you go with him and get the supplies ready. I won't go into specifics, you can go to the boat and see for yourself, and grasp it yourself. But in the end, if there is a logistical problem on the boat, we have to return early or if something happens. You know the consequences. ”

Captain Wang warned Chen Mingdao.

Although he was not at ease in his heart, he handed over the logistics responsibility of the whole boat to a cadet soldier who was still practicing and had never been on a boat. But thinking of the instructions of the chief of staff, I can only bite the bullet.

He was quite uneasy, so he could only admonish him verbally.

"Yes!"

Bidding farewell to Captain Wang, Chen Ming immediately set off and ran to the port. Not to mention that Captain Wang is not at ease, even he has no bottom in his heart. Everything on the submarine was relatively unfamiliar to him.

Although the major of the naval academy is ship command, in fact, the focus has always been on surface ships.

Fortunately, Captain Wang sent a veteran to assist. The first priority is to find him as soon as possible.

"Hello, comrade. Who are you looking for? ”

"I'm Chen Ming, the new secretary general, and this is my ID."

Chen Ming took out his cadet card and handed it to the guards outside the submarine.

"Secretary!"

The two guards saluted.

"May I ask if squad leader Li Siming is on the boat now?"

Chen Ming asked in return.

"It's on the boat, but we don't know in which cabin."

Thanked the two guards and walked across the bridge. Chen Ming stood on the dark surface of 401 boat, looking at the sea in the distance.

It seems to have suddenly understood the difference between a navy and a sailor working on land. Looking at the waves of sunlight shining on the sea, I couldn't help but have some thoughts surging.

Time was pressing, standing in place and looking at the sea twice, Chen Ming turned around and climbed into the submarine through the open hatch.

Lying down the gangway, there are also people on duty in the duty room below.

Today's cadre on duty is Lei Jun, the navigator of the 401 boat. A man with the same name as the owner of a rice mobile phone.

The two said hello and got to know each other. After learning from Lei Jun's mouth that Li Siming was observing in the reactor cabin, Chen Ming turned around and drilled through a hatch.

The first time he passed through the round hatch of the submarine, Chen Ming's movements seemed a little clumsy. It seems that I have to take the time to practice, Chen Ming thought secretly in his heart.

Passing through the front auxiliary engine room, Chen Ming finally came to the reactor room.

As soon as the hatch was opened, a wave of heat came over the surface.

Nuclear-powered submarines generally do not shut down their reactors even when they are out of service. Because it takes too long to start a nuclear reactor, and once an order is given to sail immediately, the time to start a nuclear reaction will definitely delay the fighter.

And in this reactor cabin, which is more than fifty or sixty degrees high, in addition to the soldiers on duty, there is also a black-faced man with a sharp and thin face who looks like a monkey wearing short sleeves.

Even though he was sweating profusely, he still circled around the nuclear reactor connected to the electric turbine engine in the main engine room. There was still a slurping sound in his mouth.

"It turns out that the nuclear submarine is such a thing."
