Chapter 126: Deputy Commander

In the office, listening to his partner's emotion, Gao Cheng was a little unhappy.

"It took me half a year as a squad leader to make that guy grow some bones, what's commendable?"

Listening to the company commander's impatient words, Su Qiyue was secretly amused.

In the past two months, Xu Sanduo has indeed grown rapidly.

In last month's training assessment, his results even overwhelmed Shi Jin, ranking fourth in the class.

In the entire Seventh Steel Company, he also jumped into the top fifteen ranks and became an out-and-out top soldier.

Among them, of course, Shi Jin's help and supervision are indispensable.

And Shi Jin also paid the price for this - for the first time since entering the Seventh Steel Company, his training results fell out of the top 20.

If it weren't for Su Qiyue's early planning for him, his demobilization this year would have been almost without suspense.

Of course, I don't know all this.

The rest of the fighters in the class, no one knows.

Gao Cheng and Hong Xingguo quarreled for a few words, and then turned their heads to look at Su Qiyue.

"By the way, next week's mountain combat exercise, you kid should know, right?"

Gao Cheng seemed to be careless, but in fact he reminded solemnly: "You must seize the opportunity to perform well!" This is a campaign-level exercise, you know! ”

In campaign-level exercises, teams and individuals with outstanding performance have a good chance of winning second-class meritorious service.

Gao Cheng's reminder is also what it means.

Listening to the company commander's words, Su Qiyue's heart trembled slightly.

About this upcoming exercise, he knows better than anyone.

It was this actual combat exercise within Group C Army that brought the Seventh Company to the end of the road.

In the end, I had to accept the fate of the reorganization.

Now the company commander doesn't know anything about this, and the meaning revealed in his tone is to let himself seize the opportunity to make meritorious contributions.

This made Su Qiyue laugh and laugh at the same time, but also couldn't help but be a little moved.

After a moment of silence, Su Qiyue felt that he needed to remind the company commander.

"Company commander, instructor, have the opponents we encountered in this exercise come out, and is it really not difficult to win?"

After listening to Su Qiyue's inquiry, Gao Cheng snorted disappreciatively.

"Who he is! The whole army, who doesn't know that the T division is an ace division? Our 702 regiment is the trump card of the trump cards, who can't win it? ”

Hong Xingguo, who was next to him, heard this, and smiled kindly: "Yes, July." Our 702nd Regiment has won the victory in the actual combat exercises within the army for five consecutive years. This time, since we have been assigned as the red side, we will naturally be no exception! ”

Hong Xingguo's words, of course Su Qiyue can understand.

In this kind of campaign-level exercise, under normal circumstances, the side playing the red side will win the final victory.

This time, the 702nd regiment still played the role of the red side, and the victory seemed to be a matter of course.

In the eyes of grassroots commanders and fighters such as Gao Cheng and Hong Xingguo, this exercise is more of a formality.

However, Su Qiyue, who was well aware of the inside situation, knew that this exercise was very different from the past.

But now, when the company commander and instructor are so determined, it is not easy for him to say words of consolation.

……

"Heavy troops are engaged in mountain exercises, just kidding!"

In a conference room of the 702nd regiment, Wang Qingrui, who had just returned from a meeting at the division headquarters, said with a relaxed smile.

Chief of Staff Yang Peng followed: "Temperate forests, mountains, more than 2,100 meters above sea level, and an average temperature of 21.5 degrees Celsius, it is really difficult for our heavy troops!" It seems that the army really attaches great importance to the ...... of our 702."

"Well, of course there is. But hasn't our 702nd Regiment always been 'taken care of' by the army? ”

Wang Qingrui spat out the smoke ring and asked rhetorically.

Yang Peng nodded, and said again: "Regiment leader, our battle plan this time?" ”

"The same old way! I'll take the lead, and you'll cut it off. ”

"Yes!"

……

The day before the start of the mountain combat exercise, the military training of the Seventh Company was rarely stopped for half a day.

At half past one in the afternoon, the soldiers of the whole company, under the leadership of Gao Cheng and Hong Xingguo, came to the training ground to do pre-war training and mobilization.

"Comrades, I don't need to say more about the purpose of bringing you here today."

Gao Cheng's voice was loud and thorough, making people involuntarily concentrate.

"In tomorrow's mountain combat exercise, our Seventh Company, as the only reconnaissance company in the whole regiment, will be the vanguard force, abandon the vehicle to engage the enemy, carry out road reconnaissance, and clear obstacles for our heavy artillery."

"If necessary, we will also intercept the blue breakout force!"

With that, Gao Cheng's gaze turned to the three platoon commanders under him.

"Platoon leader, you platoon ahead. With the third squad as the core, it cooperated with the tank company to break through to the edge of the local position. ”

"Yes!"

"Second platoon leader, your platoon is responsible for fire suppression. When encountering the enemy's heavy fire units, buy time for the rear brother companies! ”

"Yes!"

Finally, looking at the commander of the third platoon, Gao Cheng explained: "The task of the third platoon is to hold the position and cover our ground anti-aircraft fire. ”

After all three platoon commanders should be dismissed, Gao Cheng turned his gaze to Su Qiyue.

"Because the stakes are so high in this actual combat exercise, our company will arrange a deputy commander just in case. In the event that I am eliminated from the competition, I can continue to shoulder the command layout of the whole company...... Sue July! ”

"Here!"

Su Qiyue was stunned for a moment, then stood up and replied.

Glancing at the three platoon commanders, Gao Cheng pointed at Su Qiyue and said: "After the last actual combat competition between the third and seventh squads, Comrade Su Qiyue's command and combat level is obvious to all. ”

"After discussing with the instructor, I decided to make him the deputy commander of our company. If you three have any opinions, you can bring them up now! ”

When the three platoon commanders heard this, their eyes subconsciously fell on Hong Xingguo.

If you want to talk about Su Qiyue's command level, the three of them are of course convinced.

But the level of command is one thing, and this is another thing to serve as a deputy commander.

The company commander's preference for Su Qiyue, a cadet soldier, was seen by everyone.

It is understandable that he strongly recommended Su Qiyue to serve as the deputy commander.

But the three platoon commanders never imagined that the instructor would agree to this somewhat ridiculous decision.

After all, no matter how great Su Qiyue's future is, his current identity is just an ordinary soldier.

Although the three platoon commanders are all second lieutenants, they are also officers.

An officer let the soldier lead, and the three of them couldn't turn around a little.

Especially in the row where Su Qiyue was, the length of the platoon was even more embarrassed.

Noticing the gazes of the three platoon commanders, Hong Xingguo said aloud: "I put forward the proposal to let Comrade July serve as the deputy commander of our company. ”

"What are the people of our Seventh Company most convinced? Not rank, not age, but ability! ”

Hong Xingguo said: "In July, he has this ability, no one denies this, right?" ”

Seeing that the soldiers below shook their heads, Hong Xingguo bowed his head slightly and said, "Then it's no problem!" ”

"It's said that it's the deputy commander, but it's just a backup plan!"

Gao Cheng finally concluded, "If I hadn't died, then what would he have done!" Do all three of you understand? ”

"Yes!"

The three platoon commanders agreed in unison.
