Chen Ming, Consul He and others were in the port of Djibouti not far away.

After some politeness, Chen Ming and the officers and men on the ship watched the people get off the ship, and then walked onto the bus sent by the embassy.

This sudden task is officially completed from the moment people step on the bus.

Since they have not yet received a notice from the formation headquarters about the resumption of the escort mission, Chen Ming and Political Commissar Huang are not in a hurry now. The two of them were standing on the bridge, blowing the cool sea breeze, quietly watching the people slowly leave.

Occasionally, some people waved in the direction of the two. When Commissar Huang saw it, a smile appeared on his face and he waved goodbye in the same way.

"That's it? Lao Chen, pinch me. I can't believe it, one day yesterday feels like a year has passed. ”

Seeing the last bus honking out of the port, the dock, which had just been full of people, suddenly fell silent. The ship also returned to its daily slightly quiet atmosphere, and Political Commissar Huang said a little dismayedly.

"Haha, what's the matter, your old Huang's first experience on the battlefield is so gone? This is the modern war, the speed. Compared with the past, the offense and defense of a position had to be played for at least half a day, but now there are too many things that can be done in half a day. ”

Chen Ming heard Political Commissar Huang's words, smiled and reached out to pat him on the shoulder. But forgot, in order to send people off the warship. Now the two of them are wearing more formal clothes, and the bulge in the middle of the stars on the epaulettes of Political Commissar Huang made Chen Ming's hand hurt for a long time.

"Hahaha, are you alright? By the way, how many years have you been wearing two cents? I remember when you first got on the ship, you were in the main group, how come you have more stars this time, right? ”

Political Commissar Huang, who was originally listening to Chen Ming's words and was still quite emotional, now saw Chen Ming's embarrassed appearance because he slapped the epaulettes, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

When Chen Ming first got on the ship, Political Commissar Huang discovered the mismatch between Chen Ming's rank and rank. It's just that after all, I just met at the time, so it's not convenient to ask this kind of question.

Now after a period of getting along, I have just experienced another side by side. Political Commissar Huang felt that the distance between the two had unconsciously narrowed a lot. After thinking about it for a while, he blurted out a question.

"It's been six years soon. But it should be fast now, and before it comes out, the marriage report has just been handed in. ”

Hearing Political Commissar Huang's words, Chen Ming said with a smile.

Now in the army, it is easy to say that there are two posts in four years. Basically, when the year is up, you can naturally go up. It's not so easy for a colonel-level officer, but normally speaking, it's also five years and three posts. It will be a lot more difficult to be above the regimental level, but there will be no major problems and no liability accidents at the regimental level and below.

In five or six years, there will be one more star on your shoulder.

Maybe he was nourished by the experience of rapid promotion before, and in the first year or two, Chen Ming was more or less worried about the problem of his military rank.

"Then I shouldn't have run away, I'll go back and get on."

Political Commissar Huang heard Chen Ming's words and said with a smile. Just smiling and smiling, there is no lack of envy in his eyes.

Compared with himself, Chen Ming is still too young. Not to mention that Chen Ming will have a longer career than himself, and not to talk about Chen Ming's ability in other aspects, just one age, just happened to hit the policy of rejuvenating cadres advocated above.

"Haha, then borrow your auspicious words...."

"Report to the captain of the ship, and order our ship to resupply at the port of Djibouti, and the supply convoy will arrive at the port in about half an hour. Then head to the 08 Sea Assembly Point and stand by! ”

The sudden report of the communications corps suspended the dialogue between Chen Ming and Political Commissar Huang. Chen Ming smiled apologetically at Political Commissar Huang before opening his mouth to respond.

"Received, right away!"

·········

·········

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

After the 575 ship was replenished, it waited for half a day in the 08 sea area. It joined the 168 ships that had come belatedly and the comprehensive supply ship where the commander was located.

The escort mission was officially resumed.

The days just went flat. No one spoke of Evia anymore, as if it had been forgotten.

Keywords such as William, yellowcake, nuclear raw material purification technology, and Zaka organization have all faded from Chen Ming's life. Naturally, someone is responsible for handling those things.

After resuming the normal escort mission, Chen Ming suddenly felt relaxed and a little uncomfortable.

There are no numerous and chaotic changes, and there is no urgent atmosphere of war. Chen Ming, who was sitting in the cab at the moment, looked at the sparkling scenery on the sea, picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip slowly.

"Report to the captain, make up the call. Please go to a meeting with the commissar on the supply ship. ”

"Got it."

Hearing that the video conference mode was abandoned in this meeting, and that he had called the military and political chief officers on the ship again, Chen Ming's heart moved. If it is expected to be good, this meeting should be a reward for the merits and deeds of the Ivia incident.

Ten minutes later, a Z-9 carrying Chen Ming and Political Commissar Huang slowly landed on the helicopter platform of the integrated supply ship. Seeing Xiao Weiguo and Captain Liu, who had just gotten off the plane on the deck, Chen Ming became more and more sure of his guess.

The four of them walked towards the captain's conference room with a smile on their faces. At this time, there were also four people in the conference room, waiting quietly.

"Well, now that everyone is here. Let's have a meeting. ”

Seeing Chen Ming and the four of them coming in, the commander smiled and waved his hand. Signal a few people not to be polite, just sit down by yourself. Then he spoke.

"The decision of the above study on the events in Evia has come down. This is the meeting. ”

It's not a bad thing to hear the commander open his mouth and set the tone first. There was a smile of relief on the faces of the attendees.

"First of all, it is to award our 20th batch of escort formations a collective third-class merit. It's not a big deal, so I won't say more. ”

The commander's words immediately made everyone present laugh. There has always been a saying in the army called "third-class merit hard work, second-class merit has to work hard, first-class merit has to die old", now there are eight people sitting in the conference room, and Chen Ming, who has the lowest military rank, is a lieutenant colonel.

It can be said that everyone has a third-class merit, and even more than one. Awards for soldiers can be made a little grander, but for these people, a third-class merit is still a collective third-class merit. I can only say that I am happy, but I am not very eager.

"Secondly, the 168 ships are collectively second-class. Here we will focus on the 575 ship. ”

"The first to arrive at the port was the first to organize people to board the ship. And undertook more than 80% of the escort tasks in this incident, as well as outstanding performance in the rescue operation of Deng May. ”

"After the study and decision of the higher-level leadership department, the 575 ship was awarded a collective first-class merit. Jiaolong team, collective first-class merit. ”
