The two walked to the camp parking lot one after the other, and at this time, the companies were still gathering at the training ground for daily training, and they didn't know the news that Chen Ming was about to leave.

Kong Wula drove the car door and sat in the driver's seat, looked back after a few words, and hesitated for a while before he couldn't help but speak: "Staff Officer Chen, I didn't say how long this training lasted, let's really not go to the training ground to take a look?"

"At least explain it to the cadres in the company."

"No need." Chen Ming sat in the back row and opened his backpack to check, and there was no official notice on it for this training, so he issued a document stamped with the seals of the military department and the Eastern Theater.

With this thing, you can go to the National Defense University to report, the National Defense University is different from the National Defense University of Science and Technology, this college is really an academy for soldiers, only absorbing officers in the army, not accepting college entrance examination graduates.

It is the cradle of senior conductors, and he can start in the name of further education, and his resume has been greatly improved.

After checking that nothing was missing, Chen Ming looked out the window and said with a smile: "What is there to say goodbye to, I just went to study and not retired from the army."

"I just came back from the brigade headquarters, and looking at the arrangements for the strategic assault division, I estimate that the time for further training will not be very long, at least half a year, or at most about ten months, and it is estimated that I will arrange to come back in batches."

"I'm afraid our three battalions will change a lot by then."

"Definitely." Kong Wu nodded heavily.

He was originally a clerk of the staff department of the 169th Brigade, and at that time, it was considered that Chen Ming had just come over to serve as a staff officer, and he was afraid that he would not be able to adapt and the work could not be carried out, so he was arranged to come to the third battalion together.

The Tiger Wolf Battalion was not optimistic about it at the beginning, but it was almost disbanded later, and then it was a large-scale training operation, until now it is slowly on the right track, and the whole battalion is dedicated to construction.

No one is more familiar with how much effort Chen Ming has put in and how many days and nights of research he has worked all night on.

No one knows the hardships better than he does.

I'm afraid I can't go to the training ground to say goodbye, I don't want to see that kind of scene.

After all, it is the troops who brought it out single-handedly, and it is understandable.

On the way to Pengcheng high-speed rail station, Chen Ming and Chai Shuyao contacted each other, and the War Zone Cultural Propaganda Department was going to carry out battlefield singing activities on the National Day.

As one of the persons in charge of the information department, Chai Shuyao's task was also quite heavy, and the arrangement of the departure was too sudden.

She couldn't make it in time today, so she couldn't come over to deliver it.

However, this is nothing, both of them are soldiers and have their own jobs, after the strategic assault division is established and transferred to a new station, Chai Shuyao will be transferred to serve as the director of the new department of the Propaganda Department of the 704th Division.

This is a transfer adjustment made by the theater of operations before, and it is also for the two of them to work in one unit conveniently.

Now a brief separation is also the norm.

Pengcheng high-speed rail station has arrived.

Chen Ming carried his backpack, pushed the car door and got out of the car, turned around and waved at Kong Wu: "Go back, if the battalion commander and instructor ask, you will say that I have already set off."

"As for the farewell party, I'll keep it for later, and when I come back, I will hold it as an orientation party."

"Yes, Staff Officer Chen, then you should slow down on the way to Shimen, Pengcheng is more than 500 kilometers away from Shimen."

Kong Wu said as he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and muttered.

"Take the high-speed rail for three hours and fifteen minutes, it's absolutely no problem before dark, if you want to go shopping, Zhengding Ancient City, Zhaozhou Bridge can be, the online response is very good, I have done these strategies."

"Staff Officer Chen, when you come back from further study, you can contact me in advance, and I will pick you up, this is my strategy for you to take."

"You kid, okay." Chen Ming smiled and took the note from Kong Wu's hand, glanced at it and stuffed it into his pocket.

"Let's go back quickly, this training is a trip suddenly arranged above, and it may not last long, and you are quite familiar with the work of the General Staff."

"Tell the new chief staff officer about the daily work precautions, you are also a veteran, help a little."

"Yes, Counselor Chen."

Kong Wu stood upright with red eyes and saluted!

silently looked at Chen Ming's back as he walked away.

He said that he would pick it up when he came back, but he knew very well in his heart that he was afraid that he would not be able to wait for that day.

As a clerk of the General Staff, he is also in his seventh year, and next year he will take off his military uniform and leave the army during the discharge season.

The duration of the training of cadres of the strategic assault division has not yet been determined, but it is not so easy for such a large unit to get through within a year, and it may take a year or two for this training.

This is more representative of the determination above.

By the time Staff Officer Chen came back and went to his new unit, he might have already left the unit.

Retirement season, the death of soldiers, the imitation of soldiers.

The Joint Operations College of the National Defense University is the former Shimen Army Academy.

Located in the western suburbs of Shimen City, at the foot of Taihang Mountain, the majestic and magnificent military command academy standing here is the place where Chen Ming studied this time.

This is an old school born in the Anti-Japanese War period, in the war years of artillery fire, frequent tossing and turning, to this day I am afraid that even the ruins of the school can not be found.

The academy in front of it was later established, and it was originally a junior infantry school under the jurisdiction of the North China Military Region, and it had a fixed place to run a school in Shimen.

This college can be said to have gone through many vicissitudes and twists and turns, and finally chose here in 77 years.

The newly established company has not been established for a long time, but it has become famous overseas, and has cultivated many elites and senior generals in the army.

"The Joint Operations College of the National Defense University." Chen Ming stood at the main entrance of the college and sighed.

In the past, only officers with the rank of colonel were allowed to enter the school without examination.

There are many benefits to coming here, such as qualifications, connections, promotion channels, etc., all of which will be of great benefit.

Since the theater and the military department have jointly arranged for their group of officers to come for further study, the military region must have passed on their own information and completed the handover.

Chen Ming also doesn't know how many people will be in the class this time, and whether he can meet acquaintances, but this is not a problem he should consider, the Joint Operations College of the National Defense University, no matter how many people come, even if he is the only one, the class will start within the specified time.

It doesn't stop just because there are too few students.

What's more, it is unlikely that there will be no students here, or there will be too few students, this rare opportunity, even if it is not arranged above, just release a little rumor, I am afraid that many people will rush to sign up.

It should be quite lively.

Chen Ming looked up at the academy in front of him, like a mountain cannon that had just entered the city, everything was new.

When he went to the brigade headquarters last night to ask for leave, he remembered that Wang Lu had said that he had come to report that he was going to go to Vice President Lin Qingyuan to register, and he didn't think about it so much at that time.

Now that he has really arrived at the door of the report, looking at the college where almost no one goes in and out, Chen Ming is worried, this time is different from the last time he went to the National Defense University of Science and Technology.

There was no exchange group with him, and no one greeted him, so he jumped over by himself, how could Vice President Lin find it?

Just when he admired it with a puzzled gaze for a long time, ready to enter the school.

A lieutenant at the gate post ran over quickly, stood still, raised his eyes and looked at Chen Ming in a military uniform and a major's epaulettes.

The expression was obvious.

He had seen a lot of colonels and colonels who could come to this academy, lieutenant colonels were more common, but such a young major was really rare.

After all, the Joint Operations College is not a political academy, and it specially holds training courses for commanders and fighters of the troops.

The lieutenant looked at it and raised his hand to stop Chen Ming from continuing to advance.

"Hello Comrade Major, what are you doing here? Please present a valid ID. ”

"yes, okay."

Hearing this, Chen Ming responded, took out the military ID card and the documents stamped in the war zone from his backpack and handed them over.

"Hello comrade, I am Chen Ming, who was arranged by the 71st Army of the Eastern Theater to participate in the training of the advanced training class, and this is my ID."

The lieutenant stretched out his hand to take it, carefully checked the officer's ID, looked at the seals stamped by the Eastern Theater and the Army Headquarters of the Military Department, and straightened up straight.

Salute!

"Hello chief, welcome to the school, this is your ID, please wait."

"I'll arrange for someone to take you through the school formalities right away."

"Okay, I'm in trouble."

"The chief is gracious."

After the lieutenant returned the certificate, he quickly ran back to the duty room, picked up the landline and made a phone call to verify Chen Ming's identity again.

Chen Ming stood in place and continued to wait.

Coming to the Military Academy again, the academy is different, and his mood is completely different, I remember the last time I went to the National Defense University of Science and Technology, it was three years ago, and he was just a private.

Now, after such a long time, he is no longer the rookie who has just joined the army.

I have forgotten when the title of the recruit egg on his head was removed.

Looking back suddenly, I felt a lot of emotion.

"Hello Chief, please come with me." The lieutenant, who had just reconfirmed Chen Ming's identity, ran out of the gate post and invited: "Let's go through the procedures for entering the school first."

"I have already informed the academy, and after we go through the formalities, someone will take you over to arrange the dormitory soon."

"Okay, I'm in trouble."

The lieutenant in charge of duty took Chen Ming to the special window to go through the admission procedures.

Even if compared to the level of other trainees, Chen Ming's deputy battalion level is indeed lower, but the treatment is almost the same.

He only needs someone to stand in front of him, and he doesn't have to say a word at all, and he can do it all in less than five minutes.

During this period, the comrades who handled the work of entering the school made a special phone call, and the procedures here had just ended.

A military vehicle drove from inside the academy, and a second lieutenant who looked about the same age as Chen Ming came down from above.

I took my luggage from the staff on duty, as well as some other items that had been assigned, as well as the keys to the dormitory.

After putting everything in the car, he walked quickly to Chen Ming and saluted.

"Report chief, my name is Xiao Wen, I am a service soldier specially arranged for you by the school, and the dormitory has been allocated."

"Chief, let's go to the dormitory first and put down our luggage."

"Okay."

Chen Ming smiled back, he didn't know what the process was when he first arrived, it could only be how the academy arranged him.

To his surprise, he didn't expect that the academy would arrange a separate orderly for him, and also arrange a second lieutenant.

Generally speaking, the work that orderlies and clerks need to do is similar, that is, they are responsible for daily service work, and do a good job in arranging and notifying various internal and external meetings.

Responsible for the receipt and registration of documents, official documents, letters, at most plus some information issuance, information delivery, driving, etc., these ship work.

Including the kind of reports, document printing, photocopying, and doing a good job of visiting personnel and external liaison services, are all within the scope of the daily responsibility of the orderlies.

The nature of this kind of work is not too difficult, and it is generally performed by soldiers, although occasionally there are some experienced civilian cadres who do it temporarily.

Depending on the situation, the Xiao Wen arranged for him by the academy is likely to be the latter.

"Chief, this is far from the dormitory, let's drive there."

Xiao Wen opened the rear door with great discernment, and waited for Chen Ming to get into the car, then ran to the driver's seat to start the car.

He introduced: "Chief, the gate you came to report this time is the east gate of our college, and the road facing the east gate is the No. 1 road of our college, also known as Jinghuang Road, which leads to the top of Cuiping Mountain at the west end of the campus, and this road is numbered as No. 1 road in the college. ”

"About 600 meters west along Road 1 from the East Gate, you will arrive at the center of the teaching and living area, and on the south side of this area, near the south edge of Road 1, there are three buildings standing side by side."

"From east to west are professional teaching buildings, auditoriums and libraries that can accommodate 2,500 people, and the south wall of the auditorium is connected to a parade platform, and the east and west sides of the parade platform are the electronic teaching building and the teaching laboratory building."

"The place where we arrange further study this time is not here, our dormitory is arranged in the team, there is a good one, the No. 2 office building, and the dormitory area."

"The area of about 150 acres west to the east of the east side of the source canal is the relatively independent foreign affairs and external training area of the college, which is mainly used for external training reception and foreign affairs reception."

"Our accommodation, meals, and classes are all there, chief, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me."

I asked for a hammer. Chen Ming looked out of the window speechlessly, and the orderly soldiers arranged for him by the academy were chattering at first glance.

He didn't say a word, the other party crackled and introduced, what else could he ask.

However, the Joint Operations College does occupy a large area.

In the past, when Chen Ming didn't come, he heard that this college was called the military academy city by the locals, with a total area of 3.6 square kilometers.

Before setting off, Du Longfei, commander of the Tiger Wolf Battalion, also said that the newly divided Joint Operations College of the National Defense University is the largest in Asia and continents.

When he didn't come, Chen Ming thought he was hearsay, but now when he comes to take a look, he really deserves his reputation.

The length of the No. 1 road on which their vehicles traveled is not known for the time being, but the width is 20 meters.

It is much better than the passage specially used for travel in the Yuanhuo battalion in the army, and the architecture and garden layout are even more atmospheric.

From the position of the car window, you can see the north side of No. 1 Road, and echoing the auditorium is a seven-storey, 100-meter-long office building, which is designated as Building No. 1 in the courtyard.

On the south side of the roof stands the school motto: unity, forge ahead, truth-seeking, innovation, eight big characters, shining.

Even if Chen Ming didn't understand architecture, or even had no contact with it, he had to sigh at the Joint Operations Academy, this kind of architectural distribution is indeed amazing.

Just looking at your layout, it gives people a sense of atmosphere and sudden open-mindedness.

However, then again, no matter how good the layout is, first of all, it must ensure that the area is large in order to really spread out, if the area is too small, the building is too large, it will look a little small.

It seems that a lot of thought was put into the construction of this academy, and it may be precisely because of the large area that the academy is arranging for the orderly to directly drive the people who come over for further study to the residential area.

For such a long distance, if you walk on two legs alone, you will pass through the porch and the square in front of the complex, and I am afraid that you will not be able to get around without walking for more than ten minutes.

There are four towering cedars on the east and west sides of the building in front of the building, standing proudly, evergreen in all seasons, about 30 meters in front of the building, the middle area is a fountain, and I don't know whether it is a perennial spray or I just catch up with the time.

The springs are gushing together, and the water columns are like giant dragons, soaring into the sky, which is dazzling.

On the south side of the fountain is a stainless steel flagpole, and at the top of the flagpole is a brightly colored national flag, fluttering in the wind.

Often in the military region, suddenly seeing such a scene really made Chen Ming can't help but glance at it a few more times.

It's no wonder that his eyes were sucked, saying that it was a military academy, but the layout here is much more domineering than that of the National Defense Science and Technology University.

It's just that the dragon claw locust on both sides of the road, after the garden master prunes the shape, the branches are like dragon claws, the crown is like an umbrella, beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

Chen Ming watched for a long time, then turned his head and smiled: "Your name is Xiao Wen?" ”

"Yes, chief, if you have any orders, just say it."

"Don't be nervous, there's nothing to order, Lin Qingyuan, the vice president of our academy, should be in charge of the main work arrangements for this study, right?"

"Huh? You mean Dean Lin? ”

Hearing Chen Ming's inquiry, Xiao Wen, who was still talking like a chatter just now, shrunk his neck, his tone obviously became unnatural, and he sneered: "Chief, your news is really well-informed. ”

"That's right, it's true that Dean Lin is in charge of this training, but why are you asking this?"

Looking at Xiao Wen's performance, Chen Ming frowned, why is this a second lieutenant mentioning the vice president, and his tone is so weird?

But it's not good for him to ask directly, after all, he just came over, and it's useless to ask so much.

"It's nothing, after arranging the dormitory, you take me to Dean Lin's office, and I'll report over there."

"Looking for Dean Lin to report ?!!!" Xiao Wen grinned, looked back at Chen Ming, and stopped talking.

"What, the chief, Dean Lin is in the academy, and there is no problem with reporting in the past, but I didn't say that I want to go to Dean Lin to report to the process."

"Today and tomorrow the trainees will arrive one after another, and the classes will start directly at that time."

"Why don't you wait for the dormitory to be allocated, and you go to the school history museum first? Or if you have friends outside, you can go and see them first. ”

"You can't leave the school from Monday to Friday during the study period, but the academy does not restrict the freedom of the leaders on Saturday and Sunday, and classes have not started today, and there will be no restrictions."

"If you want to go anywhere, I can take you there."

Listening to Xiao Wen's efforts to dissuade himself from reporting to Dean Lin, Chen Ming was even more confused.

went to Lin Qingyuan to report that Wang Lu specially confessed, but he said it quite seriously, Wang Lu would never cheat him, right? There's nothing to pit about.

But why is Chauvin so resistant?

Chen Ming frowned, a little puzzled, and a little wanted to laugh, he could probably guess why.
