Chapter 31: A coincidence

A medium-sized but very strong captain opened the door for the section chief. After I got off the car, the captain said:

"Section Chief, why don't you say hello before you come down? We're ready to prepare meals too!"

The section chief laughed and said, "I just came down to have a meal. Didn't the chief say that? What does it mean to have a meal? Touching is to eat whatever you encounter? If you say hello in advance, how many dishes and soups are you still?"

The captain scratched his head embarrassedly and laughed:

"Then you are a guest, you are not a violation of discipline if you treat it appropriately!"

The section chief laughed and scolded: "Sun Yuanchao, don't give me this! When did you treat me as a guest? Tell me! Do you want to get more places to join the party for you again?"

Sun Yuanchao laughed and said, "Section Chief, you know that we have many non-commissioned officers. The development of the organization every year has made us feel very worried! Everyone does a good job, but there are only a few places to join the party, which greatly affects everyone's enthusiasm for work!"

The section chief said, "Okay, Sun Yuanchao! You are now trying to get the benefits of your soldiers! Okay! I won't discuss this today, but today I'm mainly taking Comrade Lu Changfeng to report! Didn't your platoon leader be transferred to a foreign unit? Today I'll send you another platoon leader!"

Only then did Sun Yuanchao and others notice me. They probably thought I was the new officer of the section chief! Sun Yuanchao looked at the rank of captain on my shoulder, hesitated for a moment, and asked:

"Section Chief, Comrade Lu Changfeng... Come down to be the platoon leader?"

The section chief smiled and asked, "Is there any problem? Don't want it? Then I'll give it to the Second Company. They need at least two backbones!"

Sun Yuanchao said quickly:

"No! No! Section Chief, we don't have enough staff now, oh! You really understand us!"

After saying that, he walked up to me, reached out and said:

"Comrade Lu Changfeng, hello! Welcome to our company work! I am the company commander Sun Yuanchao!"

I quickly shook hands with him and said, "Company Commander, I just graduated from military academy and lacked work experience. I will give me more advice in the future!"

Sun Yuanchao said with a smile: "I dare not take the advice! But you can exchange some experiences in leading troops! By the way, I will introduce to you the cadres in our company!"

I nodded, and Sun Yuanchao pointed to a captain with a gentle, thin body and white skin and said:

"This is our instructor Wu Yanfeng, from Fuzhou."

Wu Yanfeng nodded to me with a smile, and I asked in surprise: "Instructor, you are actually from Fuzhou?"

Wu Yanfeng asked back:

"Are you Xiao Lu, you are from Fuzhou too?"

I smiled and said, "Are you half a native of Fuzhou! My parents work here... My girlfriend is also from Fuzhou!"

Wu Yanfeng nodded in conscientiously and said, "Yes! Do it well in the future!"

After saying that, he shook hands with me, and Sun Yuanchao continued to introduce:

"Deputy Instructor Wei Jinyan... Second Platoon Leader Liu Yi"

They shook hands with me one by one. At this time, Sun Yuanchao looked around and asked:

"Where is the third platoon leader? He was in the company just now, where have you been going now?"

Liu Yi said: "I seemed to see him heading to the training ground just now. Is it happened yesterday..."

Sun Yuanchao said angrily: "Isn't this nonsense? The new cadres nowadays really... can't do anything, and their self-esteem is so strong! Liu Yi, please come to me immediately! Just say it was my order. If you can't get here within three minutes, I will punish him!"

Liu Yi hurriedly said, "Yes!"

Then he ran all the way, probably to the training ground to find the third platoon leader. Sun Yuanchao seemed to realize that I was also a new cadre. He smiled at me and said:

"This third platoon leader is an undergraduate, and he seems to be still a skilled student. Although his physical fitness is pretty good, he ran a mess with the 400-meter obstacle. He is not as good as the recruits in their platoon. I was scolded in public yesterday..."

At this time, Chief Zu, who had not spoken, said:

"Sun Yuanchao, you are such a terrifying temper! I don't know how many people you have offended! Don't you think about it, a platoon leader was scolded by the company commander in front of the soldiers, and I think you can't say anything nice to your mouth! How do you think they will do their work in the future?"

Sun Yuanchao scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Isn't this a pity for me? Section Chief, you said, which of the cadres and soldiers who came out of our company are not the best? So when I saw the third platoon leader like that, I..."

The section chief said: "You just ignore other people's self-esteem and scold them? Sun Yuanchao, Sun Yuanchao! What do you want me to say about you? Do you know what your fault is?"

Sun Yuanchao laughed and said, "I know! I know!"

The section chief asked, "The fastest ones who graduated with you are now in the market! If you don't change your temper, you will suffer losses when you get to the local area in the future."

At this time, Liu Yi ran over panting. There was someone following him, maybe the third platoon leader! They were getting closer and closer. I saw that the third platoon leader looked very familiar, but today the sun was very dazzling. It was not until they almost walked up to me that I could see clearly... It turned out that the third platoon leader who was scolded by Sun Yuanchao yesterday was actually Lin Feng! My old classmate and old partner Lin Feng!

Sun Yuanchao seemed to be a straightforward and rude man. When he saw Lin Feng coming, he had long forgotten the section chief's words to Java. He asked loudly:

"The third platoon leader, everyone is here to welcome new colleagues. What have you been doing?"

Lin Feng seemed to have not heard him and stared at me with his eyes. After a while, he laughed:

"Changfeng! How do you see you here!"

After saying that, I came over and hugged me tightly! This guy hasn't seen him for more than a month and seems to be much stronger. It seems that the training of the field troops is indeed a bit effective. It can be seen from Sun Yuanchao's fierce criticism of Lin Feng that Lin Feng is not very physically healthy in the school. Although the 400-meter obstacle is not our assessment project, he has practiced it normally. However, when he got here, he was even worse than the recruits. It can be seen how strong the training intensity is here!

I also laughed and said, "Haha! The third platoon leader! It turns out that the third platoon leader mentioned by the company commander is you boy!"

Maybe I am new, and the rank of captain on my shoulders made Sun Yuanchao a little confused. He didn't scold me, but just asked curiously:

"Xiao Lu, do you know the third platoon leader?"

I turned around and smiled and said, "Company Commander, he and I are comrades in the same dormitory. We both graduated this year!"

Sun Yuanchao looked at the rank of captain on my shoulder and was about to speak when Wu Yanfeng walked up and said:

"Don't stand in the sun, company commander, you see, the section chief has been here for a long time, why don't you invite others into the house to sit?"

Sun Yuanchao patted his head and said:

"Look at my brain! Section chief, go into the house and have a cup of tea! The second platoon leader! Notify the kitchen team to add a few dishes today! Let them go out to buy them immediately!"

The section chief waved his hand and said:

"No need! Sun Yuanchao, didn't I say that I'll have a meal? Today I'll eat with the soldiers! I'll give you one more dish than the soldiers, and I won't let you take a walk!"

Sun Yuanchao looked at the section chief in embarrassment, and was about to speak, the section chief said:

"Okay, okay! Stop silly! That's it!"

Our group of mermaids entered the company one after another. A little soldier was busy making tea for us. Sun Yuanchao said with a smile:

"Section Chief, it's okay to have some wine at noon! You finally came here, and today is the first day of Xiao Lu's registration, so I'll treat him as a welcome! "

The section chief nodded and said:

"You can drink, but be careful! I don't know you boy? Every time I drink, I don't drink anymore!"

Sun Yuanchao laughed and said, "It's the section chief that you know me. Hehe, you were an instructor here, and I was a correspondent at that time. I secretly drank the wine you brought back from your hometown..."

The section chief laughed and scolded:

"You dare to say it! If the company commander hadn't pleaded for you back then, I would have given you a punishment long ago! Can you still get into the military academy and be promoted? You are so beautiful!"

Sun Yuanchao smiled indifferently. I could tell that this company commander Sun was the old subordinate of the section chief. No wonder he dared to complain, joke or something in front of the section chief.

The section chief said: "Xiao Lu, please introduce yourself, and you will be colleagues who work together in the future!"

I nodded, stood up and said:

"I graduated from the PLA xx Academy in June this year and are classmates with the third platoon leader... Well, after graduation, I was assigned to the xx base in Fuzhou, and later... I made a first-class merit and promoted in advance. Then I took the initiative to ask to be transferred to the field troops, mainly to train my abilities. I think being a soldier here is a real soldier! I will need more guidance in my work in the future. If I have any shortcomings, everyone must point it out!"

Wu Yanfeng said in surprise:

"Xiao Lu, I remembered you when you say first-class merit. You were the hero in the CCTV special program some time ago? I said why did you feel familiar when you saw you today!"

Lin Feng looked at me with a puzzled look and asked:

"Changfeng, what hero? What kind of first-class merit? Why don't I know at all?"

I said embarrassedly: "A little thing is nothing! Don't mention first-class merit in the future. I am a new cadre. I need to remind you and guide you frequently!"

The section chief smiled and said, "Xiao Lu is very modest! Not bad, there are not many young people like you! Do your best here! Your future development is limitless!"

At this time, the military horn in the camp rang, the section chief stood up with a smile and said:

"It's time to have a meal! Let's go! Look at the living standards of the soldiers under our leadership of Company Commander Sun!"

After saying that, he took the lead and walked out of the room. We followed the section chief. The section chief was obviously very familiar with this place. He walked directly to the canteen without anyone leading the way.

At the entrance of the cafeteria, the soldiers were gathering. Liu Yi and Lin Feng hurried over to the whole team. I looked at the first row of a second-level non-commissioned officer in the whole team. He was of medium size, but very strong. The muscles on his arms were as hard as rocks. His dark face showed a leader's style. He looked like an old comrade who had been leading troops all year round. His voice was very loud. After the first round of the first group, he came to Sun Yuanchao with standard running movements about three steps, saluted, and then reported:

"Comrade Commander, the assembly of a row has been completed! 33 people should be there, but 33 people are actually there. Please instruct the acting platoon leader Liu Zhao!"

Sun Yuanchao said in a deep voice: "Snap a moment!"

"yes!"

Soon, all three rows gathered and reported. Sun Yuanchao walked to the queue and issued a password loudly:

"Look right...Look forward! Rest a moment! Tell me!"

Sun Yuanchao looked at his subordinates standing attentively with satisfaction. He returned a tribute and said:

"Save a moment! Before the meal, announce something. Comrade Liu Zhao will stop acting on behalf of the platoon leader from today, and the platoon leader will be the new Comrade Lu Changfeng! Below, everyone welcomes the platoon leader Lu with warm applause!"

The applause was quite warm, but I obviously felt that the soldiers on the side were not very enthusiastic. However, I was just a first-time visitor and couldn't figure out the situation. I walked to the queue, saluted everyone, and said:

"I will introduce myself first. My name is Lu Changfeng. I graduated from the XX Academy of the People's Liberation Army. From today on, I will work, train and live with you! I hope everyone, especially the comrades in the row, can support my work! Of course, as a new cadre, there will definitely be some shortcomings in my work. I hope everyone can give me some advice often. If I do something wrong in my work, please forgive me! It's over!"
