Chapter 57: Investiture Ceremony
"Squad leader, isn't this sent to me? Why can't you wear it? The solemn was poured cold water, and it looked a little embarrassed.
Yin Xiancong said: "You are not a serious soldier now, you are not qualified to wear it, but it will be issued to you for backup, tomorrow we will go to the regiment headquarters to hold the award ceremony, and then you will take the oath, and then the regiment commander will announce the award order to you, and then you can wear it." ”
solemnly held the military rank with only a thin yellow bar, which looked slightly monotonous, and asked Yin Xiancong: "Squad leader, what kind of military rank are we?" ”
"Private! The lowest rank in the Chinese People's Liberation Army. Yin Xiancong glanced at the solemn: "What other rank do you want?" ”
"I've been a soldier for three years, can I get your rank?" Zhuang Zhuang felt that Yin Xiancong's military rank was good-looking, at least a little bit more, and it looked like there was a sense of plumpness.
This reminded Zhuang Zhuang of when he was a child, he used to be the leader of the Young Pioneers, he only had two bars, and when he saw other people's three bars, he was always envious.
Yin Xiancong couldn't help but smile and said: "Solemn, this is the rank of sergeant, you have been a soldier for three years, unless you become a squad leader, you are a corporal at most, one thin and one thick, two bars." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers and pulled them on his solemn shoulders.
"It's like two pieces of, shame!"
solemnly pouted, and said disapprehensively: "It's a big deal, I'll be the squad leader." ”
Yin Xiancong said: "Yo! I can't tell you how ambitious you are. Do you know what it takes to be a squad leader? ”
solemnly said: "Isn't it better to train better......"
Yin Xiancong said: "That's right, are you training well? With an undisciplined and loose soldier like you, do you think you can teach the brigade? Can you be a class leader? It's okay to think about it in your dreams. ”
Zhuang Zhuang felt that he was despised, and said very unhappily: "Squad leader, you can't say that, you can't just underestimate people, when Wuxia Amon still has a career, I am a solemn man, can't I be a squad leader?" ”
Yin Xiancong said: "Yo! Say you're still not convinced? Okay, then you train hard, and strive to go to the teaching brigade at the end of June this year to participate in the pre-promotion squad leader training, and if you can come back from there, the company will definitely give you a squad leader, it's still right! ”
After a pause, he said: "But I remind you that the teaching brigade is a well-known hellish training, or an elimination system, and the company only has a few limited indicators every year, and it is given to the best soldiers. ”
The solemn face immediately turned red.
Although he is a layman, he has a strong sense of self-esteem.
"I-"
He almost had a bet with Yin Xiancong.
But he suddenly stopped, thought about it, and said with a smile: "Squad leader, don't provoke me, I'm not fooled." ”
He changed the topic with great interest: "I heard that there are many training camps in the first month or two after leaving the company, such as communications, hygienist training, and so on......
Yin Xiancong hated the iron and stretched out his leg and kicked hard on the solemn ass: "Get out of the way, before I decide to punish you for running five kilometers, you will disappear in front of me!" ”
Sneaking back to the row house, he solemnly put the big metal cockade in his hand and played with it.
The golden ears of wheat, the red Venus and the central Bayi Chinese number, held in the hand, have an inexplicable sense of sacredness.
When he was a child, when his father Zhuang Zhenguo visited the house, Zhuang Yan always loved his hat and refused to take it off when he put it on.
Later, Zhuang Zhenguo gave him a 65-style cockade, which became a solemn favorite and most cherished gift for a long time.
Until Zhuang Zhenguo changed jobs, this cockade disappeared without a trace, just like the once harmonious relationship between the two fathers and sons.
Early the next morning, a lot of military vehicles came, and all the recruits who had finished breakfast were pulled to the regiment headquarters.
Regiment commander Wei Xuefeng stood on the parade platform in the distance, watching the neat team of recruits below shouting the slogan of "one, two, three, four" entering, and couldn't help but say to Xiao Xuehai, the political commissar next to him: "Old Xiao, look at it, these soldiers have no momentum." ”
Xiao Xuehai looked at his old partner and said with a smile: "I said Xuefeng, they are just recruits, you can't ask them to be like veterans." ”
Wei Xuefeng thought for a while, shook his head and said: "There are too many recruits this year, and the burden on our shoulders is not light. ”
After the team was assembled on the large playground, the regiment commander had to say a word, and Wei Xuefeng took the speech written for him by the secretary of the regiment organ and went to the rostrum.
This veteran, who had fought a tough battle and was awarded the honorary title of "Battle Hero" by the headquarters, was not tall, sturdy, and dark-skinned.
The audience was silent, waiting for the head of the regiment to speak.
Wei Xuefeng took the manuscript in front of him and looked at it, suddenly threw it into his seat, and said into the microphone: "According to the procedure of today's award ceremony, I should have made a speech, and this manuscript was written for me by Xiucai of the regiment organ......
Suddenly, he picked up the speech on the table, crumpled it up, and threw it on the ground.
This action made the more than 1,000 officers and soldiers below dumbfounded.
Wei Xuefeng's name has long been solemn.
He was a celebrity in the 1st Division, and even more so in the regiment.
The most talked about by the soldiers is Wei Xuefeng's glorious deeds when he served as the leader of the sharp knife squad in the counterattack battle, in the case of the encounter between the company and the enemy, the stomach led the sharp knife squad to cover the transfer of the main force of the company, and after the comrades in the covering squad were wounded and transferred, he killed 12 enemies alone, so that the enemy troops could not advance for half a minute, and finally even brought in artillery to cover the carpet of the hiding point where he was located, which blew him out.
They are all soldiers who are not afraid of death.
Even when his comrades-in-arms in his own company thought that he must have died, Wei Xuefeng survived, and waited for the 11 friendly tanks that came to support, and took the tanks to pull out the enemy's artillery positions and six firepower points, and finally organized the tank soldiers to defend on the spot with injuries, and repelled two enemy attacks at night.
It can be said that this awesome and coaxing magical veteran doesn't need any words at all, as long as he stops there, he is the idol of all soldiers.
I all know the veterans who have fought in the war, but they are also soldiers and some officers with low rank.
The regiment commander is a senior officer no matter what he says, but he doesn't play cards according to the routine at all.
Solemnity was dumbfounded.
Wei Xuefeng's eyes swept over the black and oppressive head of the audience, and said: "I think, playing with the pen and saying good and obedient, that's the matter of being a showman, we are soldiers, don't engage in those showmanship, today, I am not speaking in the name of the regiment commander, I am talking to you as a veteran, before you put on the cockade, epaulettes and collar flowers, I will give you advice from a veteran." ”
