The geographical location of "H military industry" has been selected since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and there are many related supporting heavy industry enterprises near the northernmost provincial capital in the north of our country, the most famous of which is the "first tractor factory".

The number of tanks is sometimes not all about how much money you have to make it, but how many 'tractor factories' there are, according to the tonnage and scale of production, to determine your average output, especially in the nearby cities of 'H military industry', as well as a number of state-owned iron and steel companies, in the early days of reform and opening up in the last century, this place was designated as a production base of 'special steel', which was completely supplied to the country for aerospace and military scientific research purposes.

Usually produce 'tractors' for agricultural production, but when they encounter a big 'business', they also take it, and after the development of the Soviet-style 'T79' tank reaches the stage of tackling tough problems, the ensuing copy products will also come out.

In the study of this Soviet-style tank, from the beginning Guo Kaishan only participated as a student, and then the stuttering instructor did not drive him away, from the original two-hour working time, to a long-term, a layman is a layman after all, want to become an expert, it is not a thing of the past, Guo Kaishan may be too fascinated by the study of this tank, the director zhì his professional class results are straight diving, soon, he was in charge of the captain, called to the team headquarters to talk.

I said Lao Guo, I also know a little bit about you, but no matter what, you have to keep up with your studies, do you still want to graduate in two years? The captain was polite to Guo Kaishan, and the soldiers have always been straightforward.

'I don't have anything to say, I know it's me who is wrong, and I hope this is the last time you criticize me,' knowing that he was wrong, Guo Kaishan couldn't help but face reality.

'What's the matter?' I said something wrong, Guo Kaishan, I can sue you, no matter what you did before. Now that you're in school, you have to obey and understand, and you don't want me to criticize you anymore, you think I'm always awkward in love, and you have the ability to pass all your subjects, four years of course, two years of study, this time is already tight, what tank are you going to do, I have inquired. People don't need you at all, it's just that you are rushing to run, I can tell you, if your academic performance can't go up again, come back to me as soon as possible, Teacher Wang, I'll help you say it. ’

I didn't mean that, I mean I'm going to do my best in the future, don't worry." Captain, I won't hold back the class, I've learned to do it. ’

In order to learn the professional course well, Guo Kaishan had to give up his running time. Every night, he had to read late and go back and forth to the homes of various teachers, who at first thought that Guo Kaishan was 'putting on a show' in front of them. But after a long time, they realized that Guo Kaishan was really attentive, and it took two months. Due to the limited rest time, Guo Kaishan's body has lost more than ten pounds of scales, and there was still some meat on his face, but now he has become a thin line.

The hard work paid off, the courses in the university were not so tense and heavy, and after the final exams of the semester, Guo Kaishan was at the middle level, and the captain didn't bother to talk to him anymore.

Just when Guo Kaishan was dreaming about how to spend his college years, the fifth brother Guo Kaiqing was still carrying a bag with the army chief and being his follower.

One Sunday morning, when Guo Kaiqing was playing basketball with the soldiers of the military department, the staff officer of the combat duty room called out to him, 'Guo Kaiqing! Phone! ’

The voice on the other end of the phone was a very familiar voice, he was his old friend Zhang Wenzhi, 'It's Guo Kaiqing, I'm Zhang Wenzhi.' ’

'It's me, I said where you kid has been lately, why haven't I heard from you?' ’

"Don't mention it, as soon as I got home, I let the old man lock him up, it's been a long time, and I won't be allowed to call on the phone, it's more uncomfortable than being locked up, how are you, which unit have you become an officer?" ’

"I'm very good, now I am a staff officer in the military department, and I may not be able to go down for a while."

'What? As a staff officer? This is not your character, I can tell you, I heard the old man tell me, this battle is almost over, and the two countries are looking for intermediaries to negotiate a truce, if you don't want to go on, there will really be no such opportunity in the future. ’

'Truce? Who do you listen to? ’

"What else can I lie to you, just the old brother-in-law surnamed Xie came to our house a while ago, and said that he wanted my dad to help them find the one surnamed Xie, and my dad agreed to him."

For Guo Kaiqing, it really doesn't matter if he can't go to the battlefield or not, but staying in the agency all day is indeed not the life he wants, his wife Chen Shuqin always comes to the team every two weeks, but this moment of lingering is not enough to recede the fire in Guo Kaiqing's chest, he is too looking forward to having something to do.

'Er, you're talking, what's wrong, is the signal broken?' Zhang Wenzhi, who was on the other end of the phone, hadn't heard Guo Kaiqing speak for a minute.

No, I'm still listening to you. ’

'I'm suffocating, finally my dad asked me to call, and I called you first, buddy, do you want someone to help? ’

"No, I'm fine now, nothing else, I'm going to play basketball, they call me."

Then hang up, call me when you have time, I've been at home every day lately. ’

'Good. ’

Leaving the 'combat duty room', Guo Kaiqing was ready to return to the basketball court, but after playing for a few minutes, Guo Kaiqing excused himself and left.

Walking on the street of the border county, Guo Kaiqing was wearing a military uniform and had nowhere to go, today was a rest day, so he had to walk around the road.

"Hey, Guo Kaiqing, I knew you were here, let's go, drink two cups," I saw the little cadre chief riding a car, passing by Guo Kaiqing's side, now he is busy all day long, and he does not rest on Sunday, the reason is that the army is about to be disarmed again, and the transfer reports of officers above the battalion and regimental rank of all grass-roots units below the group army have to be sent to him.

'It turned out to be the director, and you will say, I don't believe it, you came to me specifically? ’

'Really, come with me. ’

I don't want to drink. ’

If you don't come, don't regret it. The little cadre director shook his briefcase mysteriously, the handlebars and handlebar covers on the worn-out bicycle were worn out, but the briefcase was very new.

'Where are you going?' ’

'Not far ahead, just ahead.' Come on, get on the car, 'The little cadre director is pedaling on the curb with one foot, this bicycle is too tall for him, and his legs are too short, he patted his rear frame, wanting Guo Kaiqing to go up.

'Come down, I'll carry you, you carry me like this.' I'm afraid of falling. ’

'Okay, well, you can carry me.' ’

Guo Kaiqing's people are tall and big, riding this '28 donkey', which is quite a match, this little cadre director is holding his briefcase in his arms, sitting on the back frame of the car, looking away from afar, like a child. The contrast between the two is huge.

A tavern not far from the military headquarters, a clay jar of local local wine, plus a piece of half-baked local pork, is the 'small wine' of the two soldiers. Guo Kaiqing was not very anxious to understand the intentions of the little cadre director, he kept cutting the piece of local pork with a knife, and after cutting a piece, he clamped it with chopsticks. After dipping it in a little chutney, I threw it directly into my mouth, and at first I ate it. Guo Kaiqing is not used to it at all, but after a long time, he feels that there is a different flavor, and drinking a large bowl of local wine is not much more comfortable.

'Hey, don't just eat, don't you want to hear what I have to do with you?' The little cadre director is very anxious, it seems that he is really looking for Guo Kaiqing this time.

'If you have something to say, let go of a fart, big brother, I'm annoyed to death, you see I don't have this hand, the calluses are gone, and in a few days it will be the same as my third brother. ’

'How?' ’

"White and tender."

"Cut, you come and see this," the little cadre chief took out a copy and handed it to Guo Kaiqing.

From beginning to end, Guo Kaiqing took a general look, this is a document on disarmament, the text Jiàn pointed out that below the military headquarters, there are many units without glorious traditions, all of which must be dismantled and reorganized, and the group army is a multi-arm main force, not only with armored troops and artillery, but also with rocket troops, 'What are you doing here, I'm not a big chief, it's my business.' ’

"Are you familiar with my eldest brother, as soon as you open your mouth, it's dirty, this is not like you before," the little cadre director is a person who pays attention to small sections, Guo Kaiqing is not big or small today, which makes him very angry.

"What if you don't say dirty words, change the head with the number, I will say the same, it's a big deal to arrange for me to change jobs, anyway, now I live enough." ’

"I know you're upset, no, brother, I'm thinking about you, look at the end, there is an old unit that has rejoined our army, right here," the little cadre chief pointed to the name of the newly reorganized unit.

"Seven Heroes of River Crossing!" Guo Kaiqing read word by word the name of the little cadre chief, it is indeed not ordinary, for the reorganization of the military department, the worst is also a battalion and regiment-level unit, this company-level unit is among them, it can be said that it is very important.

'Yes Luo, do you know the beginning of this company? ’

I don't know. ’

"This is the old Red Army unit in the Yan'an period, I heard that it also participated in the battle to defend Yan'an, along the way, from a regiment at the beginning, now there is only one company left, reorganized, reorganized, but if you Guo Kaiqing can be the company commander or instructor of this seventh company, your name will be famous." ’

Only then did Guo Kaiqing know the intention of the little cadre chief, but even if he thought about it in his heart, he couldn't express it on his expression, "Big brother, don't tease me, I'm a battalion now, and you're not kidding if you let me be a company commander." ’

'Are you kidding? Do you think you can't be a company commander in the battalion, I can tell you, if you want to be the company commander, people may not be able to want you, this is the most famous army after the formation, let alone to be a company commander, you are also glorious to be a deputy company commander, let me tell you the truth, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, none of the company commanders who have served as seven companies have been transferred below the regimental position, this is a company with a general. ’

"Then I'm not rare, by the way, big brother, do you have a shortage of battalion commanders, instructors, I can't stay anymore, I really want to go down and go around," Guo Kaiqing came to want to get caught.

"No, let's tell you the truth, let alone the battalion commander, not even the deputy battalion commander, now many deputy regimental officers have been arranged to the battalion posts, do you know why I don't go home so early?" ’

"I don't know."

"The people who give gifts in our family are all lined up at the mouth of the alley, I know that you kid wants to be the commander of this seventh company, don't play this trick with me, who am I, I am a person who has been soaked in a hot pot or cold water, I have never seen anyone," the experience of the director of the small cadre, it is conceivable that he has been dealing with personnel relations for more than ten years, and he has long seen that Guo Kaiqing wants to go to this seventh company.

"Then do I need to give you a gift?"

"I don't want to give gifts, but I can only reveal this matter to you, there are still many people waiting in the old army, I think this time the competition is a little bigger, you stop in the past two days, and have a good relationship with the chief, maybe people can let you go down with a word."

"Thank you, big brother, I remember this, come, I will toast you." (To be continued......)
