The veterans boarded the training ship "Zheng He".

The training ship "Zheng He", board number 81. Designed by the 708th Research Institute of China State Shipbuilding Corporation. It was launched on July 12, 1986 and delivered to the Navy in April 1987, under the jurisdiction of the Bincheng Naval Ship Academy.

The ship is equipped with advanced equipment such as satellite navigation and GPS global positioning system, as well as weapons and equipment, and has a teaching command center and a teaching color television closed-circuit system.

This is the first ocean-going navigation training ship built for naval academies since the establishment of the Chinese People's Navy, and is known as "the first ship of China's military academy".

Main tactical-technical performance, displacement 4500 tons; The main ship is 119 meters long, 15.8 meters wide, 4.8 meters draft, the main engine is 2 diesel engines, 2 axles, 7200 horsepower, speed, 17 knots; Maximum range, 900 km.

Armament: 2 Type 81 rocket launchers; 2 57-mm twin naval guns; 2 30-mm twin naval guns; Z-8 helicopter 1.

The establishment is 230 people, 30 teachers, 200 cadets.

Although the veterans have participated in actual combat training and live-fire exercises on warships.

However, they are still very curious about such a training ship as the "Zheng He", and after getting on the ship, they will touch it here and look there.

I'm imagining how it should work.

In fact, operating a ship is the same as driving a car.

If these hundreds of veterans are gathered, several warships can be driven away.

This is also the reason why officers and men must register in the reserve and transfer to the reserve after they are discharged from the army.

Once there is a war, these veterans who have been trained for many years are recalled, and after simple training, they can immediately be transferred to active duty and quickly form combat effectiveness. It is also part of the country's wartime mobilization system.

The veterans chose the angle one after another and took a photo with Zheng Hejian, leaving a good memory.

Everyone visited the Zheng He ship for more than an hour before reluctantly getting off the ship.

Yang Wenbin led the veterans back to the large playground of the Naval Ship Academy.

There, the cadets of the Naval Academy performed a thousand-man parade for veterans who were about to be discharged.

The thousand-person queue is a reserved subject of the Naval Ship Academy.

Thousands of sailors, dressed in white dresses, marched in neat steps, changing various formations, marching on the large playground, and people were dazzled to see.

It is also the heirloom of the Naval Ship Academy. It is said that from the first National Day military parade after the founding of the People's Republic of China to the last military parade marking the 50 th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the cadets of the Naval Ship Academy participated in it and formed a contingent of naval cadets.

Although Yang Wenbin is also a person who has participated in the National Day military parade, he has experienced intensive training at the comprehensive training base of the headquarters.

However, I was deeply shocked to witness the performance of the cadets of the Naval Ship Academy here with the veterans.

The essence, qi, and spirit in this are all very important, this is the soul of the queue!

At noon, the Naval Ship Academy arranged for veterans to eat in the academy's canteen.

The veterans' meals were half an hour earlier than the normal meals of the cadets.

Although the food in the Navy is already good, the food in the Naval Ship Academy is even more colorful.

There are cold dishes, as well as hot dishes. There are also several types of staple foods. Fruit before meals and milk after meals are nutritious meals.

The veterans, each of them devoured their food.

Everyone appreciated the style of the Naval Ship Academy and left a good impression here.

At noon, after lunch, according to the plan, the veterans got into the car and returned to the camp in the harbor.

In the afternoon, when Yang Wenbin returned to the camp, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

After completing the task and having nothing to do, Yang Wenbing returned to his dormitory. Take a break and get ready to take a nap.

At this time, the mobile phone in the trouser pocket rang.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and felt that the number was so familiar, it turned out to be the phone number of Director Zhao of the Political Department of the 447th Regiment. So, he immediately connected.

"Hello Director Zhao!" , Yang Wenbin warmly greeted Director Zhao. Say kind words.

"Good! Pretty good! How about you acting in the Navy? It's not easy to get in touch with you! When I call you, I either go out for training or participate in exercises, how can I do it, I am busier than being in the army? Director Zhao joked.

"Huh!" , Yang Wenbin replied with a smile, "It's the same busy everywhere." ”

"By the way, how is the group, it's good, right?" , Yang Wenbin asked with concern.

"Well, everyone is nice, the pace of life in the army is always tight. As soon as we returned from the exercise, we had to reform the non-commissioned officers and restore the veterans, and the next step was to transfer the cadres to other jobs, demobilize, and adjust their equipment. ”

Director Zhao pulled the topic back and talked about the original intention of the call.

"I'm calling you today to ask for your opinion. At the end of the year, there was a quota for the exchange of military and political affairs in the division. It just so happened that the commander of the third battalion, who went to live in school, was vacant. I would like to ask for your opinion, do you have any comments and suggestions on changing the guard to the third battalion as the battalion commander? ”

When he heard that he might serve in the third battalion, Yang Wenbin was excited.

Because the opportunity and status of the three battalions are not comparable to other battalions.

There are the 136th Army, the 226th Division, and the 447th Regiment, which are the roots of the Red Army.

Moreover, now, the Seventh Company of Steel and the Ninth Company of Sharpshooters are here, and they are subordinate to the Third Battalion.

With these two well-known companies of the whole army there, it is difficult to think of results.

Of course, being the commander of such an advanced battalion must pay more than an ordinary battalion, and Yang Wenbin is still prepared for this.

Thinking of this, Yang Wenbin said: "Of course it's good!

I wanted to go before, but I didn't have the right opportunity to go, but if I could go this time, it would be a test for me, but also an opportunity.

I obey the organization's arrangement. ”

Yang Wenbin, after expressing his opinion, also expressed his position in principle.

"Okay! I know your opinion," Director Zhao said, "This plan is the opinion of me and the political commissar of the regiment commander, and basically represents the opinion of the regiment party committee." If there is no accident, the army and division will not easily change the opinion of the regimental standing committee.

You also have to be prepared in your heart. Have a plan in advance for how the work will be carried out. ”

Yang Wenbin said: "Thank you, Director! I'll prepare with my heart. ”

"Well, you should prepare seriously! I'm just going to say hello to you in advance", Director Zhao put down the phone after speaking.

To be honest, if he can serve in the third battalion, this is what Yang Wenbin dreamed of.

Because, there are nine companies of sharpshooters and seven companies of steel, where are they?

When the Red 136th Army was first formed, only one regiment was formed. And the forerunner of this regiment was the Seventh Iron and Steel Company.

In fact, at that time, this approach was also a way to have no choice, and it was a psychological tactic.

If you shout on the battlefield "Seventh, Eighth, Nineth, Rush!" The enemy will naturally think that there are one, two, three, fourth, fifth, and sixth companies! Since the strength is so strong, I'd better slip away, since the enemy is so strong.

Sometimes, you may be able to give up.

This is all the local wisdom and cleverness of the old Red Army.

However, back then, when the enemy was strong and I was weak, there was no way out. And in some cases, it may also be effective.

Just like Zhuge Liang's empty city plan, the grass boat borrows arrows. and the trumpeter of the Seventh Iron and Steel Company back then, Zhang raised a trumpet to retreat from the enemy, which is the same reason.
