My sister's marriage was told by my brother Liu Shu in a letter. After Liu Dong received his brother's letter, he hid in the forest behind the playground and cried bitterly.

He knew that his sister and Hu Xiaohu got married entirely for himself. With her sister's heart, she will not fall in love with Hu Xiaohu. When he was in school, Hu Xiaohu was the worst student in the class, he liked to chase girls, but no girl looked down on him. Sister Liu Cao learns the best and looks the most beautiful, because she is arrogant, others say that she is a "cold beauty".

My sister was unwilling and reluctant to marry Hu Xiaohu, and Liu Dong felt distressed. When he signed up for the army, he didn't want to sacrifice his sister to fulfill himself, and in this matter, his brother didn't let him interfere, so he could only let it go. Ever since his sister agreed to this family business, his heart has been very uncomfortable; That day, he left as a soldier and his sister got married, and he was extremely uncomfortable; At this time, after reading his sister's marriage in his brother's letter, his heart was broken.

For a moment, he felt as if someone had pressed an invisible weight on his shoulder. The family hopes that he will be promising, and his words and deeds in the army not only represent himself, but also the whole family.

More than 200 recruits of the entire 13th Division, every time they stood in line on the playground, it was a piece of black oppression, which was an invisible pressure for Liu Dong. There are more than 200 recruits, and there is not a single one who does not want to improve, and he wants to stand out among these more than 200 people, how easy is it to talk about?

Liu Dong understands his position, among the more than 200 people, in terms of body, he is poor; In terms of mind, he felt that he was not as good as those city soldiers in Tamura. If you don't stand out, you can't make progress. Leaders often only have a deep memory of the soldiers who are on the two fronts, such as the best or the worst, and the current Liu Dong is at best a midstream, and such people will not receive special care in any collective.

Liu Dong has realized his position in this brand-new collective, and it seems that he can only outwit him. After analyzing the strengths of others, he also saw his own shortcomings, looking for them, he thought that he was a high school graduate, and his academic performance was also good, especially in composition, which was often read by the teacher as a model essay in the class. The advantage of composition is completely influenced by his brother, my brother loves to read, not only reading "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin", but also reading "Dream of Red Mansions", he also reads his brother's books when he is fine, and slowly likes to read, and then he also reads books that his brother has not read. When he was in high school, he also fell in love with writing.

In the recruit company, each squad has a military newspaper in the military region, and Liu Dong is the most serious reader of the newspaper, and others read the newspaper at a glance and ten lines, or only glance at the headline, but he has to read every word. The newspapers were full of new news about the units of the military region, and he thought of his recruit company. Many of the things that happened in the recruit company were no worse than those published in the newspapers, so why not write about them? So the title of his first article was "Recruit Squad Leaders Teach Us Progress". The deeds are real, every weekend, the Guan squad leader always takes the three classes to the playground, everyone sits in a circle, let everyone speak, and find out what progress they have made in the past week. After looking for it like this, many people have discovered their progress, and the recruits with low self-esteem have also puffed up. Liu Dong wrote an article about this incident, which was well-founded and insightful, and then sent it to the newspaper office of the military region according to the address on the newspaper.

About 10 days later, the newspaper of the military region suddenly published Liu Dong's article, signed by Liu Dong, a soldier of the recruit company of a certain unit. Suddenly, the recruit company became a sensation, almost everyone knew Liu Dong's name, and many recruits pointed at him behind his back and said: He is Liu Dong, from the third class.

When the recruit company was called by the roll call, the company commander took the newspaper that published Liu Dong's article and praised the third class fiercely, and of course praised Liu Dong in the end. Guan squad leader was as happy as Liu Dong, that day, the squad leader invited Liu Dong to the playground, and the two chatted while walking, and chatted for a long time. The central theme of squad leader Guan was to encourage Liu Dong to keep writing, and he emphasized the importance of the army's propaganda work, so that Liu Dong could make persistent efforts, and maybe he could become a press officer or something in the future. Of course, the information officer is a cadre, just like a reporter, who goes to the army to cover the news, writes an article about what he has been interviewed, and then takes it to the newspaper for publication. Wherever they go, the information officers are greeted by cadres and fighters.

Liu Dong learned the word information officer from the mouth of the squad leader Guan for the first time, and from that moment on, being a news officer became the goal and direction of his efforts.

Liu Dong really made persistent efforts to write some small stories about the training of the recruit company into articles and sent them to the newspaper of the military region, and then two more articles were published. If Liu Dong only published one article, it might pass after a while, but Liu Dong posted two more, which is not an accident. At that time, not to mention that a recruit could publish three articles in the military region's newspaper in a short period of time, even a full-time information officer could publish three articles in a military region's newspaper in a quarter, which could also be said to be a good achievement.

One afternoon, a jeep sped into the courtyard of the recruit company. Two officers got out of the car, and they went straight to the company headquarters. After a while, the company commander personally went to the training ground and called Liu Dong to the company headquarters. When Liu Dong arrived at the company headquarters, he learned that the person who had come was the chief of the propaganda section and the information officer of the divisional organ. The head of the propaganda section is surnamed Wei, who is nearly 40 years old, and is a deputy regimental cadre, which is the highest-level leader Liu Dong has met face-to-face since he joined the army. After Liu Dong's face flushed and he saluted Section Chief Wei and the information officer, he didn't know what to do next.

Section Chief Wei grabbed Liu Dong's hand and said: Your name is Liu Dong?

Be!

Section Chief Wei said: Yes, I have read all the manuscripts you wrote, and the ideas are very accurate.

Section Chief Wei said a few more words to him, and the company commander asked Liu Dong to go back to training.

That afternoon, Liu Dong was in a trance, recalling the meeting with Section Chief Wei over and over again.

Before leaving, Section Chief Wei explained to Company Commander Li of the recruit company: This recruit is a seedling engaged in journalism, and the propaganda department should focus on training in the future, and he hopes that Liu Dong will be left in the division organ when the recruit is assigned, so that it can be trained in the future.

The recruit company commander will naturally take the things explained by the propaganda section commander seriously, and in the eyes of the company commander, Liu Dong is really a talent.

Soon the recruit company training ended.

Liu Dong was assigned to the police communication company of the division organ, and he was assigned to the police communication company with him, as well as Tamura.

The police communication company is a company directly under the divisional organ, which is responsible for the communication and security work of the organ. Right under the noses of the division organs, the special car of the division commander could be seen entering and leaving in front of the camp gate every day. It was then that Liu Dong's fate changed.
