The squadron seemed to have changed suddenly, and the matter of two promotion places became a daily discussion among the soldiers.

"There are many people who meet the requirements of Tigan, squad leader Sun, squad leader Du, and squad leader Che...... There must be at least a dozen of them, which is not enough. ”

"It's definitely not enough, the wolf has more meat and less meat."

"Squad Leader Zhang must have a place, he is so good at leading the soldiers, and he will be discharged home in another month, and he must occupy one."

"That's not necessarily, now they're all staring at the quota. This is Tigan, and after returning from the military school, it will be a dime a dime. ”

“……”

The privates were discussing, the senior soldiers were also discussing, and the squad leaders were also discussing among themselves, and for a time the entire squadron was the voice of who had the opportunity to do it.

To promote work, there must be conditions, and the hard conditions are two third-class merits.

In the second squadron, the third-class merit is very easy to get, and there are more than a dozen of them who meet the conditions, and the promotion is definitely the biggest temptation for them.

Ge Zhen didn't bother to participate in these discussions, he still trained during the day and at night, and continued to maintain the precious four hours of sleep every day.

Because he doesn't worry about the number of his squad leaders at all, there are two, Zhang Xiaozhe must occupy one, and if there is one, then it must be Zhang Xiaozhe.

The reason is very simple, most of the dozen or so qualified squad leader non-commissioned officers are soldiers brought out by Zhang Xiaozhe.

There are also hardware conditions, Zhang Xiaozhe has three third-class merits, numerous awards, and the excellent squad leader of the corps, full of honors.

The most important thing is that he is indeed an excellent troop leader, and if the troops let him go, it will definitely be a great loss.

The days passed, and there were still more than ten days before the veterans were discharged.

By this time, the troops were almost demoralized, because the veterans were about to go home, and the whole management began to revolve around how to send the veterans.

"Veteran, you're leaving, veteran, don't be upset......"

"The iron-clad battalion, the flowing soldiers, the flowing soldiers, I really, really don't want to leave the army......"

"Do you remember signing up for the army that year, and do you remember the first time you put on a military uniform? Do you remember the tree in front of the barracks, and do you remember the platoon commander who loves to train people......"

“……”

The squadron began to play songs about the veterans who were about to be discharged, giving people a sense of sadness that they were about to be separated, especially those veterans, who knew that this would be their last days in the army.

"Wolf soldiers travel thousands of miles, and retirement does not fade! The second squadron, like a wolf, is loyal to the country, although there is no regret in death! - Kill !! ”

The training ground echoed with fierce shouts of killing, and the soldiers practiced shirtless, not afraid of the earlier cold winter coming from the northwest.

This is the second squadron, this is a group of wolf soldiers, even if they are about to retire, they are still strict with themselves, they want to use the last training to say goodbye to their home and the second squadron.

In the office, captain Zhang Xiangyang and instructor Wang Haijun did not give up doing Zhang Xiaozhe's ideological work.

"Xiaozhe, you must report the quota for promotion tomorrow, you have to give me a promotion!" Zhang Xiangyang issued an unquestionable order.

This is his best squad leader, the first one he has encountered as a soldier for so many years, and he can't be let go no matter what.

"We've been putting it off for your sake, and the organization needs to ask for personal opinions, and if it wasn't for your consent, it would have reported you a long time ago." Wang Haijun said earnestly: "Don't give me any reason, I know you want to stay in the army, more than anyone else." You are a person who truly regards the army as his home, and a person who truly regards the position of squad leader as a career! ”

The quota should have been reported a long time ago, Zhang Xiangyang and Wang Haijun have been delayed again and again, this will really be delayed.

"Captain, instructor, hehe......" Zhang Xiaozhe smiled: "I really have to go home, I have said it, it's time to be filial." By the way, my family is playing with Fa Xiao in the jade business, and he has already helped me get everything. Seriously, the troops are too hard, too tired, and I have to go home sooner or later. If you go back early, you can still work hard, and if you wait until you go back in your thirties and forties, it's too late to do anything. ”

"Fart!" Wang Haijun scolded: "That's not what you think, Zhang Xiaozhe, Zhang Xiaozhe, can I not know where one of your hearts is?" ”

Whether a person is deeply in love with the army and the military uniform he wears can be seen from a look and a deed.

There is no doubt that Zhang Xiaozhe is the kind of person who loves the army and the military uniform on his body, but he insists on going back.

"Hehehe...... Don't get angry, even if you get angry, you can't keep me, hehe......" Zhang Xiaozhe smiled: "You can't stop me from going back to start a business and go back to marry a wife, right?" Captain, instructor, I'm already iron-hearted, and it's useless to persuade anyone. ”

Zhang Xiangyang and Wang Haijun still wanted to get angry, but they also knew that it was useless to say anything at this time.

"But you should always tell us what you really think." Wang Haijun sighed lightly and said, "If you still think that I and the captain are your big brother." ”

Zhang Xiaozhe smiled.

"This is my truest thought, I want to go home, take care of my mother, start a business and make money to marry a wife." Zhang Xiaozhe said to the two people: "By the way, the squadron has been discussing the issue of two cadre quotas recently. Here, I recommend two people to you, one is Sun Chao, the second squad leader, and the other is Lu Xiaojun, the eighth squad leader. This squad leader is qualified enough and is the best candidate. ”

Zhang Xiangyang and Wang Haijun looked at him for a while, nodded and said they understood.

They respect Zhang Xiaozhe's recommendation very much, because Zhang Xiaozhe has never looked away from the soldiers, and he said that if he is the best candidate, then he must be the best candidate.

"We'll take your recommendation into account." Zhang Xiangyang sighed and said, "What else do you have to say, what else do you have to do, your two elder brothers will do it all for you." ”

The eyes of the two people are full of pity, but no matter how sorry it is, it is useless, Zhang Xiaozhe really wants to go, and he will be loyal to his filial piety.

"Hmm...... Get me a few three-nine-day locks, this thing is good for the old back pain if you drink wine. ”

"Okay, no problem!" Zhang Xiangyang agreed.

"Hehe, it's really the eldest brother, righteous!" Zhang Xiaozhe stretched out his thumb.

"Gotta gotcha, when will you learn to pat on the back? Moving on to what else is there to do? Zhang Xiangyang waved his hand.

"And ......" Zhang Xiaozhe thought for a while, stared into the eyes of the two people and whispered: "Don't announce the candidates for promotion first, I won't take the rank first, and finally when I leave that day, I will follow the send-off team and get on the train and leave." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Xiangyang frowned.

"Hehe......" Zhang Xiaozhe smiled bitterly: "You must not let Ge Zhen know that I want to go home, otherwise he will definitely turn the squadron upside down." He was the last soldier I led, and he will be the most daring soldier I have ever brought with me, and he is also ...... One of the best soldiers. ”

This is his last request, and he must not let Ge Zhen know that he is going to retire from the army and go home, otherwise it will definitely be impossible to end the trouble.

At that time, let alone the second squadron, I am afraid that the leaders of the general team who come to send veterans will not be able to suppress him.
