"Toot ......"

With the roar of a long whistle, in that roar, a "Dongfang 2" locomotive is slowly dragging a heavy carriage out of the special railway line of the Shenyang Arsenal to the north, in the rear carriage of the train, more than a dozen young soldiers, some bored sitting there, maybe playing cards, or chatting, for them, this kind of escort task has always been extremely boring, this is just a very ordinary task among the many escort tasks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Maybe it's because it's too relaxed, and the soldiers' "Han-style fast guns" are just placed on the edge of their seats at random, comfortable and relaxed, which shouldn't be the mentality that should be held in a mission at all, but it seems that everyone has gotten used to it.

Not to mention the officers, even the officers who lead the team sit comfortably on the sidelines.

"Clang, Clang......"

When the carriage was swaying, Li Xin sat on the seat, the pencil kept moving in his hand, and a stick figure was drawn, he had just graduated from the Army Military Academy, although it was the first time to perform the mission, but he did not have any nervous feeling, this was just a very ordinary mission.

The task is very simple, escort 800 tons of weapons and ammunition to Heilongjiang, and hand them over to the receiving unit, even if the task is completed, the current northeast is fundamentally different from the northeast six years ago -- the six-year law and order crackdown has caused the bandits who have been galloping across the northeast for decades to gradually disappear, and naturally no one will be able to pose a threat to the munitions train. So the task is very monotonous.

"Sir, you're drawing just like the real thing......"

For Wang Huaixiang, he doesn't know what it means to paint well. Badly drawn. But under the chief's pencil. The faces of the brothers were drawn, and even the yawning of the men was painted. Truly, that's the best compliment he can give.

"Sir, is it a chief like you, you have to know everything, right? I've seen commanders like you, who can read, who can fight, who can do arithmetic, and who can play the piano. Can draw...... There is almost nothing you don't know, and even Zhuang Yuan may not be more than you! ”

Although his words are a bit exaggerated, in Wang Huaixiang's opinion, this chief, who is a few years younger than himself, is a really talented person like other chiefs, and it is reassuring to follow such a person.

"Look at what you said, it's all learned in class. Nostalgic ......"

Looking at the corporal squad leader in front of him, Li Xin specially admonished.

"You're going to retire this year. When you get married and have children, you must let them go to school, not that you will be fined if you don't go to school, but that you can let them learn more things, and they can go to whatever level they can......"

The commander's advice made Wang Huaixiang nod and say again and again.

"Well, sir, I know this truth, reading is promising, in the past we didn't know how to write, that is, after becoming a soldier, we learned to write, now although this word is written in general, but my father and mother always feel that I have a ......"

Yield......

When Wang Huaixiang said that his father and mother were excited to know that he was literate, Li Xin's mind couldn't help sinking, he was born in a Chinese school and was a wanderer, not to mention that his father and mother were there, and even he didn't know where he was now, whether he was from Anhui, Jiangsu, or Shanghai? Who knows?

Does it really matter?

Looking at his subordinates who seemed to be a little proud, Li Xin was a little jealous, at least he had his own home, and what did they have?

I still have school, I have brothers, and I have ...... Well, handsome!

Yes, that's right!

It's the big handsome, and the big handsome is his own parent! Thinking of this, he even thought of the opponents who had appeared countless times in military chess deductions - the Russians, and didn't the Russians regard the tsar as their "little father"?

If it weren't for the adoption of the marshal back then, how could he be where he is today, how could he be literate, how could he go to school, how could he become a soldier, how could he become a respected officer. Just as a father nurtures his son, he and his brothers are all favored by the commander, but the commander never demands anything in return, but only asks them to maintain honor at all times, just like ordinary soldiers.

"Wait for ...... future"

Whispering on his lips, Li Xin's eyes burst out with a strange look, which seemed to be a kind of determination, but more of a belief.

"We will never let Dashuai down!"

The thumb of his right hand caresses the winged eagle ring he received when he graduated from the Chung Hwa School, and the winged eagle symbolizes these graduates. Li Xin silently made an oath so lightly in his heart.

The eaglets have grown up!

It's time to soar freely in the skies!

Thinking of the expectations of the handsome man when he received the eagle ring, Li Cunpu only felt a burst of excitement in his heart, five years ago, as the first batch of adult students of the Chinese school, he was fortunate to be the first batch of students to obtain the eagle ring, this is a very ordinary silver ring, the shining silver ring is a bar of eagles with wings, this eagle ring is linked to every student of the Chinese school - just like a coming-of-age ceremony given by parents to their children, getting the eaglet ring means that the eaglets have grown up, it means that they have to work hard for their future, There is no more parental care.

Although he only stayed in Incheon as a student for less than two years, for Li Cunpu, it was the best memory of his life, and even in his military registration file, in the hometown column, he also wrote "China Incheon" in neat small letters, he did not know where his home was, but he knew where his soul was, in the Chinese school in Incheon.

Sometimes, he even planned his future life path - serving in the army for 30 years, then retiring, taking 75% of the retirement pay, buying a house near the Incheon school, and living not far from his "home" like that.

Twenty-five years to go!

"Sir, the special train is here!"

At this moment, the sound of the whistle in the distance and the shouts of the soldiers interrupted Li Cunpu's thoughts, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the train, which was slowly coming. After stopping in front of the special line of the ammunition depot. A few people stepped out of the tail car. The leader was a second lieutenant.

Because of the stationmaster's fall and injury. As a fourth-class sergeant major, Li Cunpu was temporarily in charge of the work of the military station, so he went directly to meet him.

"Sir!"

Salute, return salute, and then hand over, everything seems to be logical, but when the handover was signed, Li Cunpu unexpectedly saw that the second lieutenant officer was wearing an eagle ring on his left hand, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Sir, you are also from the Chinese School? That school? ”

"Incheon. Big brother, you are ......"

Li Xin also noticed the eagle ring on the other party's hand, although in the army, he would always meet the alumni of the Zhonghua School, but he did not expect that in this military station, he would also meet alumni, in fact, what he did not know was that in the past few years, as more and more students of the Zhonghua School have become adults, more and more of them have joined the military and police, and even become the backbone of the military police.

"Incheon. Primary! Left school five years ago. ”

When Li Cunpu spoke, he straightened his chest slightly. That expression seemed to have returned to the attitude of the principal of the school, and although Li Xin was an officer, at this time, he also put himself in the position of the school.

"Senior, I didn't expect to meet a senior here, it's really an honor!"

After a simple politeness, the relationship between the two instantly became much closer, after completing the handover procedures, there was no accident, the two drank directly in the restaurant, a few dishes of meat and vegetarian dishes, two bottles of spirits, is all the two of them, the joy of meeting in a foreign country, so that the two of them soon became a little drunk.

"Dream ......"

For the first time, Li Cunpu preached his dream to his younger brother.

"Actually, my dream is very simple, if possible, I think that in another twenty-five years, when I retire, I will go to the school in Incheon, as an instructor, even if it is a miscellaneous laborer, I don't need a salary, as long as the school gives me a house, then ......"

Li Cunpu, who was a little glazed in his eyes, said after a while.

"That's our home!"

It's our home!

Li Cunpu's words made Li Xin stunned, looking at the senior in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of shame in his heart, for the emotions he had revealed.

"Okay, let's not talk about me, let's talk about you, you have the rank of second lieutenant on your shoulder, but it's really promising, maybe, you will become a general in the future! Hehe, who would have thought that those guys who were dying of starvation back then could become generals! Come out, do a good job, don't embarrass the school, don't embarrass the handsome! ”

The slap on Li Xin's shoulder only made his mood heavy, and he nodded heavily looking at the expectant look on the senior's dark face.

"I haven't thought about whether I can become a general's little brother, I only know that I will never dare to insult the family reputation of my Chinese school in this life!"

A simple answer seems to show his determination, and it is also the heart of every young person from the Chinese school, for this, Tang Haoran, as their parent, can be said to be very clear.

"Since you need people, let's take them from the Zhonghua School first!"

As for the proposal to expand the army, Tang Haoran almost instinctively thought of the Zhonghua School, now the Zhonghua School has built more than a dozen branches, nearly 20,000 people graduate every year, only a small number of them will be admitted to universities, and some will be admitted to various secondary schools, and more people will become military police, but all along, compared with the army, they often give more priority to the police in various places, this is because the police department appreciates them more, they are not only disciplined, but also far better than retired soldiers. More importantly, cultural literacy is also high. However, now that the police in the Northeast are becoming saturated, it is time to find a new way for them, and the army is undoubtedly a good place to go.

"What the reserve needs is the backbone, compared to ordinary soldiers, they need sergeants more, in this way, when fighting, only need to replenish the soldiers, the troops can go to the front, tens of thousands of sergeants, the troops can't provide it at all, but don't forget, those cadets in school, in addition to receiving ordinary education, also receive military training, although I dare not say that their quality exceeds that of ordinary sergeants, but I think, at least not worse than them, even culturally, ideologically, it is far superior to ordinary recruited soldiers,"

Tang Haoran's words were completely out of public intentions, but not without selfishness, his selfishness was very simple, he hoped that the students of the Chinese School could be filled with the army, so as to ensure the loyalty of the army to the greatest extent, in the case of officers calling themselves teachers and sergeants regard themselves as parents, the loyalty of this army to themselves and even to the Tang family will be unshakable by anyone.

As a father, Tang Haoran has his own selfishness, just like as a governor, he can't tolerate having a "No. 2 person" to threaten his status, as a father, he naturally hopes to build everything in the Northeast into an iron bucket, even if something happens to him, his son can accept everything logically, and no one can threaten him.

"If the army needs it, this year, the Zhonghua School can send 10,000 trainees ......"

With a smile on his face, Tang Haoran's tone was full of unquestionable flavors, although it seemed that he was discussing, but in fact, he had already made up his mind, and now it was time to further strengthen his control over the troops. Not only should it be replenished to the army, but even the navy could be sent to part of it.

"Hehe, Dashuai, the students in this Chinese school have always been your heart, and if you are willing, it will naturally be better!"

After all, he has a certain understanding of the cadets in the Zhonghua School, and the quality of those cadets is not to be said to be grass-roots sergeants, and even some of the cadets are almost not inferior to the grass-roots officers, and the Army School has even proposed on many occasions that they should be given a separate crash course -- they have almost already received a complete pre-officer education in the Zhonghua School, and there is absolutely no need to waste any more time.

"Be willing, for the sake of the country, even if you are not willing, you must learn to be willing!"

Tang Haoran sighed with a long sigh,

"I know that they should be used in a better place, but the country needs them, and the future war needs them, others are not clear, you are clear, there are not a few years!"

After this exclamation, Tang Haoran stood up, walked to the desk, and picked up a piece of information on the table.

"At that time, the intelligence bureau predicted that the railway would take about ten years, and they thought that this ten years were a decade of life and death for us, so we must not stand idly by and calculate the time, now that six years have passed, there is not much time left for us!"

Time is running out!

It is precisely for this reason that now the Northeast will mobilize every ounce of its forces to prepare for the coming war.

"Dashuai, hasn't the southern introduction plan been launched? If...... Can you contain them? ”

The "Southern Introduction Plan" is a strategic deception plan, but when mentioning this plan, Tang Haoran smiled bitterly.

"What's the point of even if it's implemented successfully? And it was not possible to change the construction of the railway, and, I do not think, the British dared to stop them! (To be continued.) )
