More than 30 officers boarded the buses on the playground one by one, and Xu Liyun led them to visit the steel mill, truck factory, and Lusi Port in Tianfen. Hu Wenkai took advantage of this time to express his condolences to the officers and soldiers at the grassroots level, and trucks brought pork and other food from Tianfen to prepare for the evening dinner.

When the officers who returned from the visit returned to the Yanyang barracks, they were surprised to find that a sign had been hung on the gate of the barracks at some point, and the big stainless steel sign was engraved with the words Yanyang Military Academy.

The officers who returned to the conference room couldn't hide the shock in their hearts and couldn't help talking, and when they saw Hu Wenkai sitting there, they immediately quieted down. Hu Wenkai finished smoking the cigarette in his hand and said, "Why did I start to give you two photos to compare?" Let me explain that a country is like a city building, which can only be designed by a group of 2% educated and thoughtful people and let 98% of them build according to the plan. Why did I leave only literate officers? An uneducated person cannot keep up with our pace, and the limitations of his worldview will involuntarily become selfish and greedy when he reaches a high position. Of course, it is not excluded that you will evolve into this, but the chances are much smaller. ”

"We adopt a model of putting the "collective" interests above the individual in the construction of the country, and we are not optimistic about the mode of mobilizing the broad masses of the people to violently destroy the country and rebuild the country in Guangdong, and the weak and incompetent system in Beijing, which has an advanced system that is divided and constantly fighting. Our philosophy is to use moderate means to acquire ownership of the country under the existing laws, and strive to overtake the Western powers in a short time. ”

"Whether a country's politics can unite people's hearts and whether it can be decisive and executive depends on whether this system can elect truly outstanding people to important posts."

"Do you think Beijing and Guangdong are decisive? Executive? Our development represents the requirements for the development of advanced productive forces, the direction of progress of advanced culture, and the ...... of the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the Chinese people. ”

"What are the duties of a soldier? The first is to safeguard national unity, protect the interests of the people, and escort the country's development, and the second is to seek strategic interests for the country and deter enemies. Don't tell me that you are a soldier just for your salary, if you do, you can go back to the Beiyang Army. We will ensure that you are paid a reasonable salary, and if you are in any misfortune, we will take care of the families of all officers at or above the regimental level......"

"Now you can decide to stay, and we welcome those who are leaving, and we will send them fare."

Sun Xiaolan, the deputy brigade commander of the former Qi Xieyuan Brigade stationed in Yangzhou, who sat at the head of Hu Wenkai, has been thinking about Hu Wenkai's words, at the age of 35, he graduated from the former Baoding Army School, and was proud to follow the Beiyang Army in the southern expedition and the northern war, climbing from the company commander to the regiment commander, and his good luck has ended here, and he was finally rewarded with a deputy brigade commander who has nothing to do every day, eating, drinking, and having fun, and in just a few years, his height and weight of one meter seven or eight have increased to more than 130 catties.

Hu Wenkai's troops disarmed their brigade according to the regulations of both sides that they could return to the Beiyang Army at the regimental level and above, and he really did not want to return to the Beiyang Army, full of curiosity about Hu Wenkai's troops, with strong firepower, high quality of officers and men, and excellent equipment, and besides, he was a deputy brigade commander who could live in strange goods, so he made up his mind to stay.

After two months of devil training, his weight dropped to 145 pounds, and he couldn't even bend down to pick it up before, but now he can easily jump over a two-meter high wall. The training method of the Yanyang military camp is completely different from that of the Beiyang Army, there is not a single commander in the entire military camp, there is no orderly, all the internal staff must be personally involved, all the tactical actions required by the soldiers must be mastered by the officers first, and the instructors dare to say, "Practice according to my appearance."

To tell the truth, Hu Wenkai's words moved him, and it is estimated that the regimental cadres present at him were already impressed by the people of this land when they visited the steel mill just now. Sun Xiaolan snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand and looked up and said, "May I ask the name of this chief." ”

"Contemptible Hu Wenkai, the leader of this barracks." Hu Wenkai said lightly.

Hula or so people immediately stood up straight and raised their hands and saluted, saying, "I've seen the chief." ”

Hu Wenkai motioned to sit down and continue to speak, Sun Xiaolan felt a little worried that Nima was too young, so he continued stubbornly: "Chief Hu, we want to ask what is the role of the army for you?" How do you define the army in your mind? ”

"In the future, the troops will only belong to the state, and will be under the unified leadership and command of the state, and they cannot be loyal to only one person or a certain force like now, where officers and soldiers are separated, officers do not own soldiers, and soldiers do not depend on officers. The role of the troops in five years? Hu Wenkai pointed to the two photos on the blackboard and paused.

"The role of the army in five years is to clear the country of the mess and buildings that do not conform to modern society, so that we can plan to build according to the best plan."

Sun Xiaolan then asked: "Then five years later?" ”

Hu Wenkai picked up the cigarette case in front of him, scattered the cigarette, and said with a smile: "In five years, the country should be substantially reunified, and the role of the army is to safeguard national security. After the establishment of a state power under the collective leadership can be smoothly transitioned, I have to enjoy life, you don't know that I am tired under the mission. ”

The applause lasted for a long time, and the blueprint described by Hu Wenkai to them is something that every enthusiastic and educated young person in China today cannot refuse.

Hu Wenkai got up and said: "It's getting dark, everyone will have dinner together to celebrate the Spring Festival, I have a proposal, everyone is a soldier, and before the meal, we will have a program of rapid fire pistols, and each person will have a chance to finish the last ten in five seconds, and the last ten will be fined three taels of wine." ”

The ten target positions in the shooting room ushered in the roaring officers, and the lowest of the ten officers in the first round also had 50 rings of marksmanship, and soon all the officers finished shooting, and Hu Wenkai and Li Wenjun stepped forward. The officers were excited and expectant, but they didn't expect Hu Wenkai to compete with them.

Hu Wenkai and Li Wenjun each chose two pistols, looked at the target position, signaled the soldiers to cover their eyes with black cloth, raised their guns blindfolded, and did not hesitate at all to shoot out all 14 bullets in the two pistols. The 126-ring target reporter sent the target paper over, and the shooting room was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard.

Hu Wenkai slapped his face and said: "I am willing to lose the bet, and the last ten must drink three taels more." ”

burst into laughter, and someone shouted that he hadn't drunk for a long time, and his mouth had faded out of the smell of birds, and he couldn't wait for more than three or two wines, Li Wenjun patted this guy on the shoulder with pity and said Brother ask for more blessings.

More than 500 officers gathered in the auditorium of the Yanyang Military Academy, which is now called the Yanyang Military Academy, and Hu Wenkai, on behalf of the Yanyang Military Academy, congratulated the officers on a happy New Year. Many people didn't know about it, and cheers exploded in the auditorium.

A large pot of braised pork, boiled fish, beef and other dishes are placed on the dining table, and eight people sit at a table, each person has a bottle of liquor and a catty. Sun Xiaolan watched over the ten people who lost the gamble, urging them to drink three taels of liquor before sitting down.

Hu Wenkai sat there in a daze, I don't know if it was the scene of that year, it should have been a dinner party like this when he graduated from the military academy, when he spoke on behalf of all the graduates on stage, and those partners didn't know what was going on now.

Li Manqiang woke him up: "Boss Sun Xiaolan is toasting you." ”

Hu Wenkai slammed back to the banquet, picked up the big bowl in front of him and touched Sun Xiaolan and took a sip. pulled Sun Xiaolan to sit beside him, and the two chatted, in essence, they are both soldiers, and it is easy to have a common language. More than 30 officers at and above the regimental level who held a meeting in the afternoon came over to toast with large bowls of wine.

shouted in unison like reciting a poem: swear to follow Chief Hu to the death, and be willing to be a soldier of the country. Tilted his head and smothered a bowl of wine.

Hu Wenkai hurriedly poured the wine in the bowl and drank it in one gulp and said: "What Chief Hu, where did you come from today as a brother, pour wine and I will pay tribute to you, Li Manqiang, Li Wenjun, and Sun Minghui all come over to me." ”

Two bowls of wine are at least eight taels in the stomach, and I don't know who started to sing the song of the motherland, and the singing in the auditorium was loud. Ge Biqi stood up and shouted: Cheers to the motherland. A celebration lasted until almost ten o'clock in the evening, when soldiers came in and set up the drunken officers to sober up. It is estimated that no more than 100 people will be able to get up and go back at the end.

Originally, I was going to visit Jin Jiu's Koreans, but I couldn't do anything if I drank like this, and I was misunderstood, Hu Wenkai staggered and held on to the car door and said to the special staff to go back to the Dragon King Temple base. I fell asleep in the bath, and when I woke up, two special agents were by my side. Hu Wenkai asked the two to rest early, put on his clothes, went back to the room to make a cup of strong tea, and opened the window.

There was silence in the night, picking up a cigarette and holding a teacup, his heart was as silent as the night outside the window. The night breeze with the humidity of the sea water poured in from the window, blowing the papers off the desk.

The morning sun shone on his forehead, and he writhed his aching body to lift the quilt. I was dizzy and dizzy after the consequences of last night's drinking, and the rest of the staff on duty in the base were dozens of team members whose families were in the field, and the local ones went home for reunion on vacation. After breakfast, his stomach was more comfortable and the special agents drove him to the airport back to Shanghai, but today he didn't know how his family was doing, and he couldn't leave Carrotta at home alone.

It's good to be young, and when he pushed open the door and walked into No. 3 Lane 188, he had already recovered. There is a room of people in the family, Lao Yi and his wife came to visit the New Year with their newborn child, and Dai Jitao and Zhang Jingjiang were also there. In the restaurant, Carlotta, Wang Changhui, and Chong Meijuan were busy preparing their lunch meals.

The two children were picked up by Liang Qichao for two or three days, and after greeting everyone, Hu Wenkai changed his clothes and sat down.
