Chapter 272: Zhang Lingpu
After three years in the army, the sow raced the sable, and counted the map on the sheets.
Lop Nur is deserted, and the garrison here is no better than the garrison in other places, and it can really be said that it is a sow race sable cicada. In the entire base, only those researchers who don't see it once in a few months have women, and the rest of the place is full of big men.
Boring is the best interpretation. An infantry regiment stationed here has not changed its guard for several years, and no new recruits have been added, and some veterans have retired. The same faces have almost caused visual fatigue among the soldiers.
In addition to duty, training has become their biggest "pastime", using bullets to vent their inner anger. The underground shooting range became their best place to go, using high-intensity training to force themselves to forget and ignore other problems.
Fortunately, it was not long before the closed route was opened, and I was able to see the world every week. Ease the boring mood of the soldiers and reduce their homesickness a little.
The control center of the Lop Nur military base, which is the heart of the base, has many instruments in it, controlling the defensive firepower of the entire base and the opening and closing of various entrances and exits. On the display wall in the center, a large wall of screens composed of fifty monitors, fifty screens take in the entire base and many places around it. It's a big guarantee of safety here.
Zhang Lingpu (deliberate), a graduate of the third phase of the Chinese Military Academy, is an infantry class, majoring in artillery disciplines. He was only 16 years old when he entered the military academy, because he was tall, precocious, and full of elegant temperament. concealed his true age and successfully entered the Chinese Military Academy. In the investigation after the fact, he was ordered to withdraw from school because of his age. Afterwards, under Chen Shao's intervention, he became a member of the military academy with the record of the youngest age to enter the school.
Although he is very young, his enthusiasm for learning and his performance in the military training he participated in are not lost to those students of the same level at all. Four years later, he successfully graduated and was awarded the rank of second lieutenant for his outstanding grades. He became the youngest graduate of the Chinese Military Academy and the youngest second lieutenant among the officers who graduated from the Chinese Military Academy. A 20-year-old second lieutenant, unprecedented.
Being awarded the second lieutenant, leaving the other cadets speechless, Zhang Lingpu proved the value of his military rank with his achievements and practical actions. Whether it is the grades of the subject or the battlefield mock exam at graduation, he has achieved astonishing results. And the most impressive thing about him is his sense of responsibility, he has a sense of responsibility that is different from ordinary people.
This is true in military academies and in military service, and his sense of responsibility is deeply appreciated by Wang Yunshan. When Wang Yunshan was transferred to take charge of the future strategic artillery unit, he also brought Zhang Lingpu out. In his 15-year military career, Zhang Lingpu's military rank has changed from lieutenant to colonel, and now, he can go one step further at any time and become a veritable general. And he's only 35 years old now.
The supreme military commander of the Lop Nur military base is Zhang Lingpu, and although the military force here is only at the regimental level, it is managed by a colonel. It's not that Chen Shao is overkill, but there must be a qualified military chief here, and Zhang Lingpu is the best choice.
From the beginning of the base's use, Zhang Lingpu sat here as the first military commander, and for several years, like all soldiers, it seemed to disappear from the world, and the world never saw their faces again. Because they haven't left since the first day they were here, not even for half a day.
In addition to letters, they have also lost any contact with the outside world. Even letters, they must be checked layer by layer, and they are never allowed to leak even the slightest bit of information about the base. Be absolutely sure that there is seclusion here.
Not many people knew about Chen Shao's arrival, especially when Xie Yuxin also came here, which was beyond many people's expectations. Zhang Lingpu originally thought that he was a high-ranking official of the National Defense Force here, and it was very likely that it was Wang Yunshan, but Chen Shao and others appeared under the surveillance screen, which surprised him. If it weren't for the duty of a soldier, he would have wanted to go out directly to pick up Chen Shao in.
It can be said that Zhang Lingpu's achievements today are all pulled out by Chen Shao, there is no doubt about this. Without Chen Shao's nod, even if Wang Yunshan was promoted, he would not have been able to run so fast. In fifteen years, he has changed from a second lieutenant to a colonel, and only those military talents who are valued by Chen Shao have such an opportunity.
And if Chen Shao hadn't nodded and let him stay in the military academy back then, being ordered to leave the school would have been the only outcome, and naturally there would be nothing today. For Chen Shao's respect, Zhang Lingpu is stronger than other officers.
Chen Shao ordered people to take Xie Yuxin and Chen Ruijun to visit the base, and they came to the control center as soon as possible.
Zhang Lingpu of the control center saw Chen Shao coming here, so he immediately got up and tidied up his clothes, and put on a military hat, he wanted to meet Chen Shao with the fullest spirit.
Coming to the door of the control center, Chen Shao originally planned to enter the password to open the door by himself, but when his hand was about to touch the button, the door was opened. Chen Shao smiled slightly and walked in.
"Zhang Lingpu, a graduate of the fifth phase of the infantry class of the Chinese Military Academy, has met the principal." When Chen Shao had just walked into the control center, Zhang Lingpu was already standing in front of Chen Shao, solemnly saluted the military, and said with a full temperament.
Zhang Lingpu did not say that he had met the Supreme Commander or His Majesty, but had met the principal. In his opinion, the most important thing for him is the teacher-student relationship between them.
"You are fortunate to be in such a desolate place, for a few years." Chen Shao stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Lingpu's shoulder, and said very seriously.
With this sentence, Zhang Lingpu felt that all the loneliness he had endured over the years was worth it. Especially Chen Shao's action of patting the shoulder, in his opinion, such a move is very kind. There were a few people who could be patted on the shoulder by Chen Shao, and his heart was deeply moved. I was also very excited, and my heart was filled with joy.
"For the future of China, no matter how hard it is, I am not afraid." Zhang Lingpu said excitedly, and added another sentence after this sentence in his heart: With your approval, no matter how hard and tired it is, it is nothing.
Chen Shao patted him on the shoulder again, and did not speak, but went around the control center directly and greeted the staff inside. At this time, it was not only Zhang Lingpu who was excited, but also the people in the entire control center were very excited. Chen Shao's arrival, and the first time he came to see them, like Zhang Lingpu, all these years of perseverance are worth it.
Zhang Lingpu followed behind Chen Shao and constantly introduced the role and use of these instruments to Chen Shao. When he came to Zhang Lingpu's desk, Chen Shao's attention was attracted by the photo above. The photo shows a beautiful woman holding a seemingly month-old baby in her arms.
"Is this your daughter-in-law and little children?" Chen Shao pointed to the photo and asked Zhang Lingpu beside him.
Seeing that Chen Shao noticed the photo on the table, Zhang Lingpu was a little afraid that Chen Shao would be angry, because there were some things that could not be placed on the table of the military commander. Hearing Chen Shao's question, Zhang Lingpu replied cautiously: "Yes." ”
"When did you take a photo, the child is very cute, very much like you." Chen Shao looked at Zhang Lingpu's face and said. If Zhang Lingpu is placed in the next generation, he will definitely be a handsome guy and have a very elegant temperament. Chen Shao is ashamed of this. But here, it's not a society that eats on faces.
"A year after I was ordered to come here, my wife sent it to me, and the child is seven or eight months old." Zhang Lingpu Road. It's been a few years since I've been here, and there's no doubt about being homesick, especially for newborn children, who have been in a different place for several years, and it's not a good feeling.
"Now, I'm almost four years old, and boys are still girls." Chen Shao also said with some emotion. He himself has always been by his family's side, and he has not put himself in the shoes of the family to experience the feeling of being separated from his family. But as an orphan in later generations, he had an emotion for his relatives that ordinary people could not experience. For the soldiers who are sticking to the entire base day and night, he has some regret in his heart, maybe he can do something for them.
"The boy, called Zhang Weiguo, hopes that he will grow up to be a man who protects his family and the country." Zhang Lingpu Road.
"The country owes you a lot, and I owe you a lot. It's really not easy for you to stay here for more than three years and not be able to see your loved ones in person. Chen Shao sighed a little. China's status today is not easy to come by, if it were not for the thousands of Chinese soldiers who sacrificed their lives and forgot their lives, if they were not far away from their relatives and threw themselves into the frontier defense team, or went to the deep mountains and old forests, or went to the secret base to carry out the task of guarding. How can there be the glory of China today?
"As a soldier, since I put on a military uniform, I didn't think about it so much. I remember that the principal used to say that when I put on a military uniform, it is to protect my family and defend the country, I am not a soldier, I am not here to protect the country, then who will protect it. From the first day I stepped into the military academy, I was ready to sacrifice everything for my country. Staying away from my relatives is to better protect my relatives, and they will understand me. Zhang Lingpu said very seriously.
"You didn't do what you said about the responsibilities of a soldier, but as your supreme leader, as your headmaster, I must think about you. After the test, the soldiers guarding the base, everyone can go home once, and everyone will be rewarded with a year's military salary, and go back to have a good reunion with their families, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation from me to you. Chen Shao said seriously.
"On behalf of all the soldiers, I would like to thank the Principal for his concern for us. The fact that you can come to see us is the best compensation for us. Chen Shao's decision moved Zhang Lingpu very much.
Chen Shao smiled and said: "This is what you deserve, it is the result of your hard work, and I am just doing what I should do." ”
As long as the experiment is over, the secrecy can be relaxed a little. Moreover, Chen Shao also believes that the army's secrecy regulations can well restrain these soldiers, because as long as the soldiers who come to guard these secret military bases, they are all selected by thousands of people, especially in terms of secrecy, which is the first requirement for selecting soldiers.
