Watching the company commander leave the classroom, I also packed up my pen and notebook to take back. At this time, the instructor sitting in the front row stood up and walked to the front of the classroom. The instructor of our company is surnamed Chen, his name is Chen Jingwen, he has been an instructor in the company for three years, he wears glasses, looks very gentle, is very kind, and cares for the officers and men of the company very much.

Instructor Chen glanced around and said, "Today, under the leadership of our company commander, a task has been completed, and everyone knows it. The company commander also communicated with me about the specific performance of the task, but the leaders did not know and did not understand, and during the meeting just now, there were some criticisms of our company, and everyone should be able to understand them correctly. The higher authorities will send an investigation team down to investigate, and will give our company a fair deal, and we must believe in our superiors in this regard. Therefore, until this matter is thoroughly investigated, everyone should not casually express their opinions and discuss casually. ”

When I heard the instructor's words, I gave the instructor a thumbs up in my heart. Among the leaders I know, if the company commander is the person I admire the most, then the instructor is the person I admire the most, who has ideas and foresight. Through my understanding of the company commander and instructor of our company, I have come to the conclusion that in a company, the company commander and the instructor are like a husband and wife in a family, and if the husband and wife are harmonious, the family will be happy and happy, and if the husband and wife are not in harmony, then the family will be chaotic. The reason why our third company is advanced every year and the first in the examination every time is that the personal ability and quality of the company commander is one thing, and the role of the instructor cannot be ignored. The cooperation between the two is really seamless.

I sometimes think in my heart that if I am a company commander, I must be like our company commander, and if I am an instructor, I will be like an instructor. Of course, for me, who is now a "bastard", it is estimated that I can only be a platoon commander in this life. In my nephew's description of my position, it's a small platoon. I have a sister in my family, who is five years older than me, who got married early and had children early. When I was in high school, my nephew was born. When I graduated from military school and went to the army, my nephew went to elementary school, and every time I came home from vacation, my family asked me if I had mentioned it, and I said no, and I was still a platoon commander. My nephew will say that my uncle is a small row.

With the guidance of the instructor, the resentment of the officers and men of the company almost dissipated. After the meeting, in the various smoking corners of the company's barracks, there were much fewer complaints from officers and men.

Standing in the corridor on the east side of the dormitory building, looking at the bright and twinkling stars in the night sky, Yang Tian and I, who came out to smoke together, said: "Hey, this is a whole thing, perform the task well, you could have made meritorious service and received awards, but now it has led to so many messy incidents, and no one is in a good mood." ”

Yang Tian handed me a cigarette, lit both of our cigarettes, took a deep breath, and said: "Deputy Head Gou is really a person as his name, really a dog, the matter has not been investigated, and the superiors have no clear instructions, so he is in such a hurry to hold a meeting to criticize people, in his eyes, as long as he does not do what he wants, it is all wrong, and he should be criticized and dealt with." ”

"What you said is really a good summary, I also feel this way, as long as Deputy Head Gou finds a problem, he will definitely hold a meeting to report criticism. Moreover, as long as he discovers the problem, he can talk about you for a year, and he will talk about it when he meets, and he will definitely talk about it when he meets, anyway, it will be endless. "I complained helplessly, because I had encountered such an incident.

It was last autumn, and I, as the commander of the observation post, accompanied the deputy regiment commander Gou to inspect the work of the observation post, and on the windowsill of the observation post, there was an electric fan used in the summer, when the weather was not hot, but it was not too cold, and I was not in a hurry to let people take it down. When Deputy Head Gou inspected, he found an electric fan, and then he talked endlessly. Just an electric fan, can you use it endlessly? I'm not a child, I'm not stupid, just mention it to me, now it's cold, the electric fan hurry up and put it away, don't you. Deputy Head Gou criticized me at the time, saying that I couldn't see the problem in my eyes, it was almost winter, and I still had an electric fan, was it appropriate? He also said that I lacked a sense of professionalism and responsibility, and that the area I was responsible for should be checked frequently, and said a lot, more than Tang Seng Tang Seng, if I were Sun Wukong, I would have chiseled him with a golden hoop stick at that time. This is not the point, the point is that at the meeting held by the whole regiment, Deputy Regiment Commander Gou talked about the electric fan no less than three times, and every time Deputy Regiment Commander Gou came to the company, he would talk about this electric fan, and he is still talking about it this year. Therefore, for Deputy Regiment Commander Gou, I am convinced from the bottom of my heart, every time I see him coming to the company, I must be able to hide as far as I can.

"Hey, what's the use of let's talk so much, the leader is still the leader, the soldier is still the soldier, the reality is still the reality. I've seen if there is an investigation team coming in the past two days, and what will the superiors do? Extinguishing the cigarette butt in our hands, Yang Tian and I walked towards the dormitory building.

In the summer night sky, the stars are especially bright and numerous. It's far away from the city and has a starry sky that you can't see in the city. However, the night sky was still dark, and no matter how bright the stars were, they could not guide pedestrians.

The next two days, as I expected, were not as I expected, and the leaders couldn't resist meeting again to talk about what was not all that night. After all, a leader is a leader, and naturally it is not something that a small platoon commander can speculate and predict at will, if it is really as I think, then the leader is too superficial and boring.

It was rare that there was no meeting for two days, and our company commander seized the time to organize the officers and men of the company to carry out shooting preparatory training to lay a good foundation for the next live firing.

Not long after the training that day, I was practicing aiming with a pistol when I suddenly noticed our instructor walking around in circles at the back of the line, seemingly holding a DV in his hand.

"Hey!" I motioned to Yang Tian for the instructor who appeared at the back of the line.

"It's rare that the instructor didn't write materials in the house, but he actually came to the training ground." I approached Yang Tian and said in a voice that only two people could hear.

"I guess the instructor must have come to shoot the video of the singing competition, and I took it twice during the study and education time last week, and I guess there are still some shots missing." Yang Tian glanced back again, and then said affirmatively.

The two of us were talking in a low voice, when the instructor suddenly walked towards the team and walked next to Company Commander Sun, who was directing the training. At that time, I was standing not far from the company commander, and I could hear the conversation between the two of them. Of course, the company commander's voice was never small, and he could hear it from a distance.

After the instructor walked up to the company commander, he shouted, "Old Sun! Then he whispered, "I'll discuss something with you, and I'll organize the officers and soldiers to shoot a video during the break." ”

Seeing that the instructor ran to the training ground and said that it would take up training time, Company Commander Sun immediately lowered his face and said, "The training time is not enough, and there is no time to fix that useless!" ”

Although he was directly rejected by the company commander, the instructor was not angry and did not give up, and then said: "Old Sun, I know that the training time is tight, and I didn't want to delay everyone's training, if it weren't for the meeting in the past two days, I would have completed this." I'm going to report it tomorrow, and I'm missing this shot. ”

"It's almost almost, it's a fool to report it, it's not a useful thing anyway." Speaking of which, our company commander just doesn't want to delay any training time.

"Lao Sun, you are so good at training, the company takes the first place in every assessment, and now the regiment organizes a singing competition, don't I also want to fight forward and win glory for the company." The instructor was still discussing with the company commander.

The instructor's words touched the company commander, and our company commander will ask everyone to work hard and fight hard for anything that can fight for the honor of the company. Since the instructor also had such thoughts, the company commander sighed and asked helplessly, "Then how many shots are you missing?" How long does it take? ”

"I'm just short of a set of shots of fighter training, twenty minutes is good, twenty minutes at most." Seeing that the company commander finally relented, the instructor quickly stretched out two fingers and gestured.

"Okay, I'll rest for twenty minutes, you hurry up and shoot, my training task is also very tight, I'll shoot live ammunition right away, and some fighters won't go through the program." Company Commander Sun looked at the officers and soldiers who were training, and his tone was also very anxious.

I listened to the conversation between the two of them, and I found that when the company commander finally agreed, our instructor was as happy as if the child had finally received the promise of his parents to go out and play. Of course, this analogy is not particularly appropriate, if the company commander is the strict father of the company, the instructor should be a loving mother. Then this metaphor should be like a wife who gets a promise from her husband to go shopping for clothes. But this analogy is not too appropriate. Anyway, I thought it was very interesting at the time, the two of them were for work, the company commander was for training, and the instructor was for the singing competition, and they were not selfish, but the instructor had to discuss with the company commander in such a low voice, and at that time I felt that the instructor was very spineless and not hard at all. However, after a few years, I realized that this style of the instructor is called emotional intelligence. Sometimes, there is no benefit to being tough, and being soft may give you better results.

During the break, the company commander gathered the entire company. The company commander said that in the next 20 minutes, the instructor will organize everyone to shoot a video, and everyone must be serious, do the action according to the instructor's requirements, and strive to do it once. Finally, the company commander said that our company is the best company, and we can win the first place in training, and we must also win the first place in other competitions, and we must shoot the video well with high standards.

The mobilization of the company commander is like adding fuel to the fire, originally before the instructor organized everyone to shoot a video, everyone was already very serious, with the company commander, everyone is even more passionate, enthusiastic, if the instructor designed the action of flying, I estimate that everyone is eager to fly up and cooperate with the instructor.

Seeing that everyone was in high spirits and high morale, the instructor nodded with satisfaction: "I won't bother to talk about it, let's hurry up and shoot, so as not to delay everyone's training." ”

Then, the instructor began to organize the officers and soldiers to rehearse and shoot according to the pre-designed script, and the filming process was particularly smooth, and the officers and soldiers were very good in terms of movements and expressions, as if they had turned into real actors.

The singing competition is one of the activities that our regiment must carry out every year, because we are a border guard, unlike a unit that is stationed in a centralized area, if you want to organize an activity, you can just pull it directly to the playground. The companies of our border regiment are all scattered, and there is no way to organize a company for tens of kilometers. But what if the leader still wants to organize all kinds of competitions? At that time, our leaders gathered all the cadres of the organs engaged in propaganda to study together, and it was really racking their brains and digging out their minds, and finally came up with such a method, shooting a video, and conducting an evaluation through the video. Therefore, it seems that the current singing contest has become a DV production contest.

"If everyone had this kind of strength in training, our army would have been invincible in the world a long time ago." I sat next to me and watched the excitement, watching everyone be active, and thinking a little mockingly.

"Gao Xiaofei, don't be there to watch the excitement, come here!" I was looking at it so hard that I was called by the instructor, "Don't you know how to play the harmonica, hurry up and bring it over." In the last shot, you sit in the middle and play the harmonica, the soldiers hum along with you, and finally everyone sings aloud together. Just go! The instructor briefly told me his thoughts, and I was not allowed to discuss it at all, there was no way, the instructor's request was a holy decree, so I hurriedly ran back to the dormitory to get the harmonica, and hurriedly ran back. When I came back, the formation had already been designed, and it was waiting for me.

I sat in the middle of the fighters, and all the fighters sat in a circle around me. Hearing the instructor shout to start, I slowly played the harmonica. At this time, the training ground was quiet, not even a trace of wind, as if the whole world was listening to my harmonica. At that time, I was really engaged, as if I had forgotten all my sorrow and depression, as if I felt that I was the only one left in the world. With the sound of my harmonica, the soldiers slowly hummed along and finally sang in unison, and the singing shook the sky, completely showing the pride and magnificence of the soldiers.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! After everyone finished singing, there was applause. Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was the company commander, applauding as they walked.

"Well sung! The design is good, too! That's great! I'm sure I'll be the first! The company commander praised. It's a really good design, at least in the end, I became the main character, sitting in the middle of the fighters and playing the harmonica, and it felt quite chic. I also learned the harmonica after graduating and coming to the army, and at that time I learned to play the harmonica just to relieve depression, and if I didn't do anything in the mountains, I would go crazy. At that time, I couldn't stand it, and the game was boring, so I finally chose to learn to play the harmonica, and I felt a lot better every day.

Hearing the company commander praising everyone, all the officers and men of the company also showed happy smiles. This was the first time since the regiment held a meeting that night to criticize the officers and men of the company that the officers and men of the company laughed so happily.

"I sing so well, I can't be too bad when I train!" Before everyone could fully smile, the company commander continued, "The video is finished, why don't you train quickly, wait for me to praise a few more words!" If you get the first place in the year-end assessment in two months, I will hold a special meeting to praise you for one day! ”

With the angry roar of the company commander, the officers and men of the whole company ran like a rabbit meeting an eagle, and they gathered in an instant, waiting for the company commander to arrange the next training content.
