Text Chapter IV: Investigation by Superiors

For three days in a row, it was surprisingly calm. This is really rare, there was no meeting for three days, it should be the first time since I came to the group, even if it is the Spring Festival and 11th holiday, there will be a shift meeting every morning to report what games to play during today's rest and how to organize the break.

Calm is only temporary, and individual phenomena do not appear forever. On the fourth day, which was Sunday, the company finally waited for an investigation team, which was said to be sent by the General Staff of the Northern Military District, to investigate the specific circumstances of the mission. The reason why we came so slowly was that the distance was too far, our station was too remote, and it took three days to arrive at our company after taking the plane and train, and after taking the train and taking the car.

It was a Sunday, and the officers and men of the company were resting, some were playing basketball on the basketball court, some were playing badminton on the badminton court, and some were playing with their mobile phones in the dormitory. Seeing a car driving into the company, the soldiers all stopped their activities and looked at the approaching car together.

I had received the news before, and the company commander and the instructor led the other cadres to stand in a line in front of the building to greet them. The regiment commander stepped down from the first car, and then introduced the cadres of the company to the leaders who got off the car behind. The leader shook hands with the cadres of the company one by one, and then said to Company Commander Sun very politely: "I went to the company on Sunday to investigate, and the soldiers were affected to rest. ”

"Yes, Chief." Company Commander Sun replied as he led the investigation team towards the conference room.

Yang Tian and I were only platoon commanders, and we didn't participate in that mission, so the investigation team naturally wouldn't talk to us, and I happened to be glad that no one bothered me, so I quickly hid in the dormitory and continued to watch me.

"Did you notice a phenomenon? The more big the leaders come to the grassroots level, the more polite they are, and the more big the leaders who come down from the grassroots organs, the better they are to the grassroots level. I said to Yang Tian, who was playing a game.

"You just found out, I found out a long time ago. From a psychological point of view, this is a kind of inferiority complex, because of their low position, they can only use their temper to make up for it, so as to show that they are leaders. And the leaders of large organs do not use such a disguise at all. Yang Tian didn't raise his head, and said to me while pressing his fingers on the phone.

"You even study psychology now? What a talent! I didn't care if Yang Tian could see it, and gave a thumbs up to Yang Tian who was playing with his mobile phone. At that time, I couldn't concentrate anymore, and I was always thinking about the investigation. In fact, it can be seen from this point that Yang Tian is even more able to mix than me, at least I know how to care about the situation of the company, but he is playing the game with all his energy.

"You play here, I'll go out and see how the investigation goes?" Still reassured, I stood up and walked outside.

Of course, Yang Tian didn't care about me and continued to play with his phone.

At this time, the investigation team was talking to the officers and men involved in the mission one by one in the conference room to learn about the situation of the mission at that time. One of the members of the investigation team was watching a laptop in front of him, which contained a video provided by Company Commander Sun. The video is a scene recorded by a recorder carried by a soldier during the mission.

The entire investigation process was completed in less than an hour, and finally the leader of the investigation team and Company Commander Sun talked alone in the conference room for 10 minutes, and no one knew the content of the conversation between the two. When the two of them walked out of the conference room, the leader of the investigation team turned around and said to Company Commander Sun: "Young people must dare to dare to do it!" Hearing this, I almost laughed out loud at the time, our company commander is already daring enough to dare to do it, and if we dare to dare to do it, our company commander can take us to recover Taiwan and kill little Japan.

After the leader finished talking to our company commander, he took the investigation team away, along with the accompanying regiment commander and other leaders. They left very suddenly, just as they came, coming and going in a hurry. Just as the leader who led the team said, it really didn't affect our rest, and we didn't even eat lunch.

I didn't find out too much, I went back to the dormitory, and saw that Yang Tian still maintained his previous posture, I told Yang Tian what I had just seen, and I told him again: "Secretary Li's lunch is prepared in vain, after the investigation team came, I saw Secretary Li hurriedly ran over to the driver to ask the number of people who came, and quickly arranged for someone to kill chickens and clean up the fish." This will probably be done. ”

"It seems that there is something delicious at noon, and the leader didn't eat it, so let's eat it." What about the results of the survey? Yang Tian finally put away his phone at this time, stretched and asked.

"The specific results will be reported in a few days, and it is not clear now, and everyone has only made a full report to the investigation team on the specific situation. It should be fine, I was quite happy when I saw the leader of the investigation team leaving, and I talked with the company commander alone for more than ten minutes, and when I came out, I encouraged the company commander to do a good job. ”

"I have also heard about the situation of the mission, it is said that at that time, the terrorists were already raising their guns to aim at our soldiers, if it was not for the company commander to be well prepared and shoot quickly, our soldiers would definitely have casualties. In such an urgent situation, there was no choice but to shoot. Yang Tian also said what he knew.

I told Yang Tian another news I had just heard, and I said, "I heard that the reason why Deputy Head Gou is so anxious and nervous about the meeting is because of our duties. We are the Chinese army, which can only resist the aggression of foreign enemies, and cannot fight our own people. And the terrorists are also Chinese, so the company commander killed the terrorists, that is, hit our own people. ”

After listening to my words, Yang Tian said indignantly: "I'll go, what kind of theory is this?" What is the rule? Anyway, I think that we are soldiers and defend the motherland and the people. Whether it is an external enemy or an internal terrorist, as long as it endangers the interests of the motherland and the people, we have the right to shoot and kill them! In the end, Yang Tian even raised his fist, full of pride and ambition.

The arrival of the investigation team is like a stone thrown into a pond, setting off a ripple that will dissipate and remain calm. The company is this pond, the ripples dissipate, the weekend is over, and another week of training and work begins. However, the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop. You want to be calm, but you don't always get what you want, and you will always be interrupted by all kinds of things.

On Monday, just after a morning of training, and after returning from the training ground at noon, Company Commander Sun received a notice that the whole regiment would hold an emergency meeting in the afternoon. The training has just made some progress, and I was trying to use the afternoon to consolidate, after hearing this notice, Commander Sun was angry, and opened his mouth for a long time, I really couldn't think of what to say, and finally it was the old saying that is often said: "! Another meeting! I don't let people train! "Meetings are one of the most important things that affect the normal work of the grassroots level. If we reduce the number of meetings by 50 percent, we will be able to double the combat effectiveness of the troops, and if we reduce the number of meetings by 70 percent, we will be invincible and become the number one in the world. This is the sentiment that our company commander expressed after a meeting.

After lunch, Yang Tian and I came to the old place, the company's laundry field, with a cigarette in our mouth. This is a must-have subject after every meal, as the saying goes, "A cigarette after a meal, race over the living immortals!" The soldier interpreted this sentence vividly.

In our company, we usually divide into three groups after eating, the non-commissioned officer squad leader mainly gathers in the corridor on the east side of the building while smoking and bragging, while the conscripts mainly gather in the outdoor large dry toilet under the pretext of going to the toilet to secretly smoke a few puffs. As a platoon leader, Yang Tian and I were basically smoking in the laundry field. Three meals a day, after a meal, are more punctual than eating. Some soldiers may have missed their meals because they were delayed due to something, but they must smoke cigarettes.

Speaking of smoking, I think of my experience learning to smoke. When I was in junior high school and high school, I was a good kid and didn't smoke at all, and I even hated smoking. When I first entered the military academy, I was often given cigarettes, and I was particularly disgusted at the time, saying that I didn't smoke and often hid far away. Later, because I often went to class, I played basketball after class, and I didn't study hard at all. I often fail the final exam and often retake it. When I was in my junior year, I had three classes in one semester, and I was nervous to death, and our school stipulated that I would drop out of school if I hung four courses in a semester, and I had already hung up three courses, and dropped out if I had one more. At that time, there was still a subject that did not come out, it seemed that the English score did not come out, I was depressed and anxious, and then a classmate handed me a cigarette, I tried to smoke, which really relieved my emotional restlessness. After smoking, I called the teacher and secretly sent several boxes of milk, eggs, and fruit to the teacher's house. Since then, I've been a little more restrained, and I've been able to listen carefully in class, and I'm no longer failing courses. But since then, I've learned to smoke.
