Chapter 7 Chapter VII

These days, Chen Jianjun's life is also quite difficult. He heard a news that Lu Huaicheng will use this opportunity of live-ammunition shooting to focus on assessing battalion cadres like him whose term of office has expired, and finally decides to study in the class of the deputy commander of the ship. candidates.He is not afraid of shooting targets. He has all the data on the missiles equipped on the ship for so many years. He can control some external factors such as wind and humidity based on his experience. He is very confident in this aspect. You can hit it with your eyes closed.But this time is different from the past. Lu Huaicheng asked the reference cadre to independently command the entire launch process, that is, he has to perform the functions of a captain. What's more terrible is that you don't even know the number of the target you are going to hit beforehand. He had to make his own judgment based on the data provided by the reconnaissance radar. This was not just a matter of experience. The technological content accounted for a large proportion, which was also his weakness.If there was a mistake this time, and Lu Huaicheng had made a charge for the loss of the ship last time, the quota would most likely fall by the wayside, and he would have to continue standing still.The more he thought about it, the more uncertain he felt, and he couldn't help but feel melancholy, all of this was seen by Xie Tingqun.

The work before the assessment and shooting was all ready, and a formation composed of more than a dozen destroyers and frigates left the port and sailed to the predetermined sea area.Target shooting was about to start, but Chen Jianjun's mood did not improve. He valued this opportunity too much. Although he was no weaker than other opponents in any comparison, the difficulty of today's target shooting was something he had never encountered before.What if he can't hit it, but someone else can?Or is it better for others to use shorter time than him?Opportunities are always given to those who are prepared. That is to say, there are many examples of blind cats meeting dead mice.He was thinking wildly, when Xie Tingqun mysteriously appeared in front of him and told him a shocking news.

The girl who came to ask Zheng Yuanhai for a sheep was none other than Lu Huaicheng's daughter who was taken away by Mei Degui back then.Back then, Mei Degui's wife cried out to see the child when she was dying. Mei Degui was in such great pain that he couldn't bear to tell his wife that the child had died.Depressed, he was walking aimlessly on the street, and happened to find an unattended little girl next to the park.Seeing no one around, he came up with an idea to take the child to the hospital for his wife to take a look at before sending it back, so that the wife can leave with peace of mind.After Mei's wife died, Mei Degui took the child back to the park, but the stroller had long since disappeared.He also had the idea of ​​sending the child to the police station, but he was afraid that he would be thought to be stealing the child on purpose, so he was in a dilemma for a while before deciding to take the child home and name him Mei Xing'er.The father and daughter depended on each other for life, and more than ten years passed in a flash, and Mei Xing'er was born into a slim young girl.

Zheng Yuanhai looked at Mei Xing'er in front of him, with a figure of about 1.65 meters, bright eyes and white teeth, the skin on her face was as moist as flower petals just sprinkled with dew, her long black hair was braided into two long braids and dragged around her head Finally, even though the clothes were simple, they couldn't hide the rare softness of young girls. I wondered how could there be such pure and beautiful girls in the mountains? "You pay me a sheep!" Mei Xing'er said. Zheng Yuanhai's thoughts were startled back to reality, and he glanced at all his subordinates, including Jiang Xizi, the heroic spirit he had when eating meat had long since disappeared, all of them looked at Zheng Yuanhai with innocent eyes, what does that mean? You are the leader, this matter has nothing to do with us, you can figure it out!Zheng Yuanhai called Mei Xing'er aside, and deliberately said: "We are the people's army, and the people's army has come to the mountains, do you know why we are here?"

"We must eliminate the reactionaries!" Jiang Xizi added a line at the right time. "Go!" Zheng Yuanhai glared at him, then said to Mei Xing'er, "Do you know why we are here?" His voice was low and mysterious. "Eat my sheep!" Mei Xing'er muttered softly. "What... What do you mean eating your sheep? Could we be here to eat sheep?" Zheng Yuanhai raised his voice. "That's right, your sheep fell into a mountain stream and died." Jiang Xizi added. "It was eaten by you anyway!" "Ah... yes! We ate it, but do you know why we ate it?" Zheng Yuanhai's brain was spinning rapidly, and he was looking for all possible reasons to turn a big event into a small one.

"Because we are hungry!" Jiang Xizi blocked Zheng Yuanhai's idea of ​​finding an excuse several times. Zheng Yuanhai turned his head and yelled at Jiang Xizi in a low voice: "Shut up!" "You give me back the sheep!" No matter what Zheng Yuanhai said, Mei Xinger only said this. Zheng Yuanhai was finally in a hurry: "Hey, why don't you, girl, get in? Look at us, huh? He looks like someone who eats your sheep for free?" "picture!" Zheng Yuanhai choked, at first he didn't think highly of this country girl at all, he thought he could coax her home with Zheng Yuanhai's mouth without a few words, but he didn't expect that she was really persistent. Let him not know what to say.what did you say?Except for a few bare soldiers around me, I have nothing, so what can I give back to others?Thinking of this, he lowered his voice next to Jiang Xizi's ear, "You are the best at doing my ideological work in the pig farm. I'll give you a chance today to settle this matter!" Regardless of Jiang Xizi grinning like a bitter melon Zui turned around and left, but Mei Xing'er followed him every step of the way. She was sure that Zheng Yuanhai was the biggest official here, and he had the final say.

Jiang Xizi was overjoyed, if they don't look for me, they will look for you, with a gloating look on her face, and followed behind. "What are you doing with me?" "Give me back the sheep!" It was still the same quiet and lethal words. Zheng Yuanhai pointed to Jiang Xizi: "You look for him, he is the instructor of our action team, you look for him." "I'll find you." Mei Xing'er refused to let go. Zheng Yuanhai had a bitter look on his face: "I can't return your sheep even if you come to me now? You see clearly that we are the People's Liberation Army, can we eat your sheep for free? The military and civilian family, the whole family eats your sheep, so how can we drive you away like this?" Do you want money? What is the relationship between us? Ah? The relationship between fish and water, we are fish, you are water, can fish leave the water? No, if we eat your sheep in difficult times, it means that we cannot do without Are you guys? Do fish still need to pay for two sips of water? Ah..."

Mei Xing'er had a grievance on her face, tears welled up in her eyes and finally flowed down. Zheng Yuanhai panicked: "Hey! Hey! Don't cry! We give money, it's not that we don't give it, it's just that we don't have any money now, and I promise to return you double when you return to the army. When the time comes, you want money for money, and sheep for sheep. " Mei Xing'er ignored him and turned to leave. Zheng Yuanhai heaved a sigh of relief, and said to Jiang Xizi, "Go, ask for the address and send a note, so you can pay back the money when you go back!"

Jiang Xizi followed and ran towards Mei Xing'er who was walking away. When Mei Xing'er drove the sheep back home, it was completely dark, and Mei Degui was sitting in the yard waiting for her, excitedly telling her that someone from Zhuzi's family had sent a message, that the wedding house had been built, and that I have prepared a lot of dowry gifts, and I want to discuss with them about marrying Mei Xing'er.Mei Xing'er just drove the sheep into the pen, as if she didn't hear his words, she didn't respond. Mei Degui followed Mei Xing'er and continued: "No matter how much a girl reads at home, it's the same thing. In the future, she will inevitably get married. Listen to Dad, and marry in the next spring. Huh? I know you We haven't reached the age of registration yet, and in our rural areas, we get married first and then register..." Seeing that Mei Xing'er still didn't respond, he became anxious, "Did you hear what I said?"

"I don't want to marry!" Mei Xing'er replied coldly. "How can you go back on what you promised?" Mei Degui roared. "I didn't agree!" Mei Degui patted his chest: "I agree!" "Then you marry yourself!" Mei Degui choked for a long time without saying a word, thinking that the female college couldn't help her father, and she became more and more disobedient!Turning around, I found that one sheep was missing: "Why is there one missing?" "No less." Mei Xing'er turned and entered the room. Mei Degui counted and counted: "Is there one missing?" He shouted into the room, "Let me tell you! This sheep is your tuition fee, if you don't have one, don't study."

It was late at night, and Mei Xing'er was still lying on the table reading and studying. Mei Degui cooked a bowl of noodles and brought them in. He wanted to discuss the marriage with his daughter again. The man was waiting for the news!No matter what your attitude is, you still have to call someone back?Seeing that Mei Xing'er was concentrating on reading, she thought she would ignore him, so she temporarily dismissed the idea, told her to go to bed early after eating, and then turned and went out.After Mei Degui left, Mei Xing'er was no longer in the mood to study.I heard from my father that when my mother gave birth to her, she died of dystocia. In order to treat her mother, she borrowed money from Zhuzi’s family, but she didn’t pay for it for a long time. Zhuzi’s mother said that there is no rush to pay back the money. Let my son be my daughter-in-law!Seeing that the family was also a dutiful family, Mei Degui agreed without thinking too much. After a flash of lightning outside, it began to rain. Mei Xing'er looked out the window and was worried about the soldiers who ate her sheep during the day. Where did they go to hide from the rain?It's also interesting to think about those soldiers, all looking at her with helpless eyes.There was also the leader, who was forced by her to have no place to hide, and he was too much. The sheep was obviously gone, and he was still asking for it, thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing. At this time, on Longwan Mountain, Zheng Yuanhai called everyone to avoid lightning strikes and leave the tall trees quickly.Jiang Xizi asked him if he was looking for a place to hide.Zheng Yuanhai looked at the dark mountain, where can he hide?pour it! Jiang Xizi asked Zheng Yuanhai: "Old Pai, will you still be the Chief of Staff when you go back?" "If you beat me to death, I won't do it anymore. I want to board the ship." Jiang Xizi cheered up: "Hey, get on the ship and transfer me there too!" Zheng Yuanhai glanced at him: "What are you going to do? There are no pigs raised there." "Do you think I only know how to raise pigs? I don't know any sea battles in the world? Do you know that the destroyer Sheffield was sunk by something in the British-Aman Islands war?" "Anyway, it wasn't hit by a pig trough!" Zheng Yuanhai simply lay down on the rock and let the rain pour on him. Jiang Xizi looked at him angrily: "Underestimate people? Let me tell you, I was a sonar soldier on the ship before I arrived at the pig farm, and I won the ranking in the fleet competition!" "Then why did you go to the pig farm to feed the pigs?" "Because..." Jiang Xizi paused for a moment, then changed his words, "I need it for work." Work needs aroused Zheng Yuanhai's thoughts, and he muttered: "Work needs, work needs, I don't know if the next job needs me or I need it..." It rained heavily all night and didn't stop until dawn.Looking at the drenched soldier, Zheng Yuanhai felt guilty again.We have to find a way to get something to eat, otherwise the soldiers will get sick if they are cold and hungry.Thinking of this, he took Jiang Xizi to pick wild vegetables. Jiang Xizi told him that there were so few wild vegetables on the mountain because they were all picked by the villagers.Zheng Yuanhai said, let's go further away!The two were walking listlessly, when suddenly Jiang Xizi stopped moving and listened with his ears pricked up. Zheng Yuanhai looked at him strangely: "What's wrong?" "Listen, there is the sound of water." Zheng Yuanhai listened carefully, only the sound of the leaves being blown by the wind after the rain in the forest: "No?" "Yes, about one kilometer ahead." Jiang Xizi hurried forward.The distance of one kilometer was reached, and sure enough, a mountain river appeared in front of my eyes.Zheng Yuanhai thought to himself that he really learned sonar, and his ears are smart, and he can even judge the distance so accurately. "Where there is water, there are fish. We are saved." Jiang Xizi rolled up his trousers, took off his shoes and went into the water.After a while, he fished out a fish and threw it to Zheng Yuanhai on the shore excitedly.Zheng Yuanhai returned to the countryside with his parents when he was six years old. Going down the river to fish is considered a game for rural children. He is no stranger to this, so he also took off his shoes and socks and went into the water.After a while, the two caught more than a dozen fish and threw them to the shore.At this time, there was a sound like thunder in the mountains, rolling from far to near.Zheng Yuanhai thought it was going to rain again.Jiang Xizi listened with his ears sideways, and suddenly his expression changed drastically, and he suddenly pulled Zheng Yuanhai up and ran to the shore.Zheng Yuanhai struggled to break free and said loudly that he was watered all night last night, and his clothes are still not dry, so what are you afraid of when it rains?Before Jiang Xizi had time to explain, he pushed him ashore. Zheng Yuanhai only realized when he turned his head to look.Jiang Xizi yelled, run!Before he had time to think about it, Zheng Yuanhai ran over to get the gun on the shore. The gun is the first life of a soldier and must not be washed away by the water.Jiang Xizi tripped over a rock just as she climbed ashore, and was swept away by the rushing flood before she got up, just like a leaf was swept away. "Jiang Xizi..." Zheng Yuanhai's shout passed through the forests and mountain streams, resounding from time to time in the mountains... Zheng Yuanhai ran quickly along the river bank, Jiang Xizi must not die, he wanted to find Jiang Xizi back.But there is no shadow of Jiang Xizi, there are broken branches and leaves left by the fierce mountain torrents everywhere, and the two sides of the river are in a mess.After running for an unknown distance, Zheng Yuanhai finally stopped, staring at the rushing river in a daze.Suddenly, he raised the submachine gun in his hand to the sky, shouted Jiang Xizi's name, and shot a burst of bullets.The gunshots echoed in the forest, Zheng Yuanhai was venting his anger and grief, then he knelt on the ground powerlessly, blaming himself: "Xizi, I shouldn't have called you here, I killed you..." Suddenly he yelled , "Lu Huaicheng, why do you want to get along with me, Lu Huaicheng..." A miracle appeared when Zheng Yuanhai was in despair. After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xizi, covered in mud and looking embarrassed, appeared in front of Zheng Yuanhai. In front of the far sea.It turned out that at the dangerous moment of drifting with the flood, he grabbed a small tree on the bank.From great sadness to great joy is a matter of an instant, Zheng Yuanhai pulled Jiang Xizi into his arms, and the two hugged each other tightly, just like two good comrades in arms suddenly found that the other was still alive after a battle with heavy casualties . Since school holidays, Mei Xing'er has gone to the mountains to herd sheep every day, but she hasn't seen the gang of soldiers who ate his sheep for several days. She thinks that those people may have left, even if they didn't walk such a big mountain, they might not see them again. Her sheep have not returned yet.When she left angrily that day, Jiang Xizi chased her for a long way and insisted on writing her an address, saying that she would send the money back.She didn't write it, maybe she was persuaded by Zheng Yuanhai's reasoning that fish drink water, maybe she thought that if she wrote it, she wouldn't send it to you, but just coax your little girl not to cry.Zhuzi came home today, with wine and meat in his hands, and a naive smile on his face when he entered the door, but this kind of smile was too annoying for Mei Xinger, she felt that this kind of smile was a fake, for the sake of To please her and her father, coax her to marry him.How could she marry him?She is still in high school and will be going to college in the future.Mei Xing'er didn't want to talk to Zhuzi much, and didn't want to see him, so she drove the sheep up the mountain early. Mei Xinger was sitting on a rock reading a book, when a person suddenly appeared from behind the tree, which startled Mei Xinger, it turned out that the pillar rushed over.Mei Xing'er's heart was pounding and she gave him a dissatisfied look.Zhu Zi didn't care about Mei Xing'er's indifference towards him, he was used to it.He himself knew that he was not good enough for Mei Xing'er, the gap between the two was too great, not only was she ten years older than Mei Xing'er, not to mention her appearance, if Mei Xing'er was compared to a beautiful flower, then he At most, it's just a grass, or the kind of roadside weeds that rural people use to rub the soles of their shoes once they step on dog poop. Seeing that Mei Xing'er ignored him, Zhu Zi said that I would accompany you to herd the sheep, and sat beside her.Mei Xing'er moved aside and turned her back.Zhu Zi peeked at her, and the more she looked at her, the more beautiful she felt. Her pretty face was as watery as a peach, no, it was like the flat peach of the Queen Mother. mortal?Zhuzi began to dream, he wanted to hug her, but he was afraid that she would be angry. Mei Xing'er felt that there was something strange about Zhu Zhu, and when she turned around, she saw that he was short of breath, his face was flushed red, and he was looking directly at her.Mei Xing'er was frightened, she got up and was about to leave when the pillar grabbed her. "What are you doing?" Mei Xinger snapped. "Xing'er, ask me to give you a hug..." Zhuzi said incoherently. "You let go!" Zhuzi became bolder instead: "Xing'er, I miss you so much, really, I think about it every day, even in my dreams..." "Let go, let me go." "I won't let you go, you are my wife." Hugging Mei Xing'er, Mei Xing'er struggled desperately, and the two rolled down on the hillside. "Bastard, let me go..." Mei Xing'er resisted fiercely. Suddenly, a big foot flew over and kicked the pillar to the ground. Zheng Yuanhai pulled Mei Xing'er up: "Are you okay?" Mei Xinger was still in shock. Zheng Yuanhai didn't wait for Zhuzhu to stand up, he rushed up and punched him, Zhuzi screamed like a pig but rolled all over the ground, he was beaten and rolled around on the ground.Fearing that something might happen, Mei Xing'er stepped forward and pulled Zheng Yuanhai: "Stop beating me." Zheng Yuanhai didn't intend to give up, he knocked down the pillar again, and wanted to charge up... Mei Xing'er hastily shouted: "Stop beating, he is my partner..." Zheng Yuanhai was stunned, his fists stopped in the air, Zhu Zi took the opportunity to get up and run away. Mei Degui finished the food and wine brought by Zhu Zi, but he didn't see him back, so he sat there alone and drank, humming a few ditties from time to time to feel comfortable. Zhu Zi came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face. "Zhuzi, you... what's wrong with you?" Mei Degui asked in surprise. "What's wrong? Ask your daughter!" Zhu Zi was furious. "This... this... this can't be Mei Xinger's beating, right?" "It wasn't Mei Xinger who beat me, it was the wild man Mei Xinger found who beat me!" Zhu Zi snorted angrily. Mei Degui became anxious: "Hey, why are you talking nonsense, I, Mei Xing'er, am a dutiful child." Zhu Zi stared at him: "I'm talking nonsense? I'm talking nonsense, can I do this?" He snatched the cigarette from Mei Degui's hand and squatted on the ground to smoke it.Mei Degui asked: "Then...the one who beat you...what kind of person is it?" "Soldier!" "That's not right, how did I, Mei Xing'er, know someone who was a soldier?" Mei Degui said angrily. Zhu Zi stuck his neck: "How do I know? I said why Mei Xing'er goes up to the mountain to herd sheep every day. It turns out that there are people on the mountain, and she must have seduced them." Mei Degui became anxious: "I'll tell you Zhuzi, don't frame me Xinger? Then Mei Xinger who is a soldier must not know him." "If I don't know him, why did he hit me? I'm quitting this relationship. I want to quit the relationship. You pay back the money!" Hearing this, Mei Degui became discouraged. Over the years, he has taken a lot of things and money from Zhuzi's house without telling Mei Xing'er. You can't afford to sell the house and sell the land, so he hurriedly put on a smile: "Zhuzi, you...don't be angry!" "Can I not be angry?" Zhuzi is afraid of toughness but also bullying. Mei Degui coaxed him: "Are you going to retire for such a trivial matter? I've fallen in love with you. You won't be able to be my son-in-law for the rest of your life." Zhu Zi touched the face that was beaten: "I haven't gotten through the door yet! If I really marry her, I might die." Mei Degui deliberately loudly said: "Dare to beat my son-in-law in broad daylight, is that okay? I..." Grabbed the rolling pin: "I'll settle the score with him." Zhuzi muttered: "He has a gun!" "Ah? With a gun?" Mei Degui put down the rolling pin timidly, "Quiet the fire! When Xing'er comes back, I will definitely scold her severely. Come, come, let us have a drink." With force, he pressed the pillar on the ground. Sit down at the table. Zheng Yuanhai couldn't believe that the person he beat off just now could be Mei Xinger's boyfriend, so Mei Xinger told him the whole story, and said that she never agreed to this marriage, but her father said If you are a man, you have to count what you say, or you won't let her go to school.Zheng Yuanhai sympathized with the little girl in front of him, and told her that on the issue of personal marriage, the law grants every citizen absolute freedom and rights, and no one can force her. Besides, she is only sixteen years old and has not yet reached the legal age for marriage. She doesn't compromise. Mei Xing'er was full of affection for this officer in her heart. What he said was right. The military and civilian family are like fish and water. She now feels that he is her relative, a relative who can speak justice for her: " Thank you Uncle Liberation Army!" Zheng Yuanhai couldn't help laughing when Mei Xinger called him Uncle Liberation Army: "Ah? Am I that old?" Mei Xing'er smiled, and changed her tune: "Brother Zheng!" "Hey! This sounds so comforting!" Zheng Yuanhai asked again, "What are you going to do in the future?" "I want to go to college." Mei Xing'er's excited voice just finished, and a gloomy cloud came to her heart again, "But my family's conditions are not good, so I'm afraid I won't be able to go to college if I pass the exam!" "You can apply for the military academy!" Zheng Yuanhai blurted out, "Not to mention that there is no tuition fee for the military academy entrance examination, food and lodging are all under the control of the state, and even clothes are given military uniforms." "Really? Can girls also enter the military academy?" Mei Xing'er couldn't hide her excitement. "Of course! We will be comrades-in-arms by then." "Great!" Mei Xing'er was so happy that she almost jumped up. Zheng Yuanhai said again: "But don't be too happy too early, the military academy is not so easy to take the exam, you have to study hard." "Well! I will work hard! I will work hard to pass the exam, and then I will be assigned to a unit with you." "Okay!" Zheng Yuanhai stretched out a hand, "Then we've made a deal." Mei Xinger excitedly gave him a high five. "Dinner is ready!" Jiang Xizi ran over from a distance carrying a tea mug. Mei Xing'er looked at a teapot of wild vegetables: "You... just eat this?" Zheng Yuanhai looked nonchalant: "Pure natural green food, nutritious." Mei Xing'er watched Zheng Yuanhai and his soldiers gobble up the wild vegetables, and suddenly felt a sour feeling in her heart, and she wanted to cry!Although they were still facing them, it was different from crying when they asked for sheep that day.That day, she felt sorry for her tuition fees being eaten up by these people, but today she felt sorry for them. The next day, Mei Xing'er got up early. Before her father got up, she steamed a big basket full of steamed buns, cut a big plastic bag of pickles and carried them up the mountain. I am not hungry anymore.What she never expected was that these soldiers did not cheer when they saw Mantou as she had imagined.She was a little disappointed and couldn't understand why these people would rather eat wild vegetables than her steamed buns.She looked at Zheng Yuanhai with longing eyes, she knew that these people would listen to him, if he asked them to eat, they would definitely eat.Zheng Yuanhai finally opened his mouth to speak, which means that this time he went up to the mountain to carry out the mission, he was the one who was not allowed to bring food to practice, and the others took it on his behalf. Eat when you are hungry!But the soldiers didn't respond, and instead refused together with an attitude of helping each other through life and death.Mei Xing'er was so anxious that she was about to cry again, but Zheng Yuanhai came over to persuade her, saying that they accepted her kindness, but they were soldiers, and soldiers obey orders first, so she asked her to take these steamed buns back, and took them with her after speaking. He led his soldiers to the depths of the mountain. Mei Xinger really cried this time, holding the basket and shouting: "Come back, you will starve to death if you don't have food..." But none of the soldiers turned their heads, just like a group of warriors going to the battlefield, they resolutely faced the dangers and challenges . Gunshots rang out suddenly. Mei Xinger heard it on the way down the mountain. It was very loud and echoed in the mountains for dozens of seconds before disappearing gradually.Mei Xing'er's heart sank, she knew that the gunshot must have something to do with Brother Zheng and the others, and they must have met the person who stole the line by accident.Criminals are vicious and may have guns in their hands.Mei Xing'er didn't dare to think too much, turned around and ran up the mountain.Little did she know, extreme danger was waiting for her ahead. The ships set up their positions on the sea, the order has been conveyed to the ships, the reconnaissance radar is turned on, and the "enemy" target group at sea is searched by itself.Soon the last notification came, and Chen Jianjun was going to hit the No. 3 target ship.In fact, before this, he knew that he was going to hit target No. 3. It was Xie Tingqun who told him. At first he didn't take it seriously. When Xie Tingqun told him that the news came from the training office, he was shocked.Knowing the number of target ships is equivalent to knowing the radar search direction, and you can calculate the shooting parameters in advance, you can launch in advance, you can win the first place in target shooting, and you can go to the deputy captain class for further study in a grandiose manner.How could such news leak out?It turned out that there was a staff officer in the training office who graduated from the same university as Xie Tingqun. The two had known each other since school and had a good relationship.Xie Tingqun was soft-spoken, and the staff officer only revealed it to him, and repeatedly told him not to tell it.Xie Tingqun repeatedly stated that he couldn't bear to see Chen Jianjun restless, so he helped him.Ever since he heard the news, Chen Jianjun was not as relaxed as before, but became more and more uneasy.As much as he wanted to play well, he didn't want to cheat.But since you know it, you can't pretend you don't know it?Can't press the wrong button when ordering?This news is like a hot potato, making Chen Jianjun at a loss.Compared with others, he has a lower level of education, and the opportunity to go to the deputy captain's class for further study is too rare. Thinking of this, he decided to prepare in advance for the No. 3 target. When other ships were still in the radar search stage, Chen Jianjun's missiles had already flew away from the warship with a long tail flame, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and accurately hit three ships after flying more than 20 nautical miles. target ship.While others were applauding Chen Jianjun, Lu Huaicheng frowned.So fast, unbelievably fast.Just like some counterfeit cultural relics, it is not because they are not well-made that they are recognized as fakes, but because they are so perfect that they are so perfect that they show their feet. The thread-cutting thief climbed up the pole and just took out the pliers when he was knocked to the ground by a gunshot. Jiang Xizi stepped forward and stepped on his chest, blowing the barrel triumphantly.The sound of the gunfire alarmed the thieves who were hiding behind a tree not far away. They ran away regardless of the life and death of their accomplices. Zheng Yuanhai ordered Jiang Xizi to lead people to guard the captives, and he led two soldiers to chase after them.The thief ran desperately, Zheng Yuanhai chased after him, and gradually the soldiers behind him were thrown away.Turning around a forest, the thief suddenly disappeared.Zheng Yuanhai drew out his pistol and searched in the forest.Suddenly there was the sound of branches, Zheng Yuanhai turned around and couldn't help being stunned. The thief held Mei Xing'er hostage with a soil gun and shouted to Zheng Yuanhai: "Don't come here, I'll kill her if I come here!" "Let her go!" Zheng Yuanhai's voice was calm and majestic, he didn't expect that Mei Xing'er came back again, and she ran into the gunpoint of the desperate thief so easily. The burglar yelled, "Put down the gun!" "Let him go, I'll be your hostage!" Zheng Yuanhai approached. The thief's eyes were red: "If you come here again, I will kill her!" Mei Xinger yelled in fear: "Brother Zheng..." "She is a common man, you let her go, I am a soldier, in your hands I am more valuable than her." "Put down the gun! Put it down, do you hear..." the thief yelled hysterically. Zheng Yuanhai walked towards the thief: "You don't need to shout, Chinese soldiers have never had the habit of surrendering their guns." The thief suddenly pushed Mei Xing'er towards Zheng Yuanhai and pointed his gun at him: "Stop! If you don't stop, will I really shoot?" Zheng Yuanhai pulled Mei Xing'er behind to protect her, and sneered at the thief, "You are an earthen gun, you can't kill me with one shot, but I will definitely kill you with one shot." He flipped the safety with his thumb. The thief was about to collapse, thinking why am I so unlucky?When I met such a desperate master, my hands trembled more and more, and I couldn't control it anymore, and the earthen gun fell to the ground. Zheng Yuanhai pulled the trigger suddenly with a smile on his face, and there was the sound of empty gunshots. The thief was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground like a pool of mud, panting heavily, he couldn't figure out whether he was alive or dead now. Mei Xing'er was also very frightened, if Zheng Yuanhai hadn't grabbed her, she probably wouldn't be able to stand up. In the afternoon of the next day, Lu Huaicheng personally brought a car to pick up the soldiers on the patrol line.Mei Xing'er came to see them off, and in just a few days, she already regarded them as very close relatives, and she was reluctant to let them go. Zheng Yuanhai let the soldiers board the car, and walked up to Lu Huaicheng by himself: "Can you return my money to me?" Lu Huaicheng was expressionless: "You can't lose your money. We'll talk about it when we get back. Get in the car..." He turned and walked towards the off-road vehicle. "No!" Zheng Yuanhai's stubborn voice. Lu Huaicheng looked back at him, Zheng Yuanhai directed Lu Huaicheng's gaze to Mei Xing'er who was standing aside.The moment Lu Huaicheng and Mei Xing'er looked at each other, his heart seemed to be pulled by something. He walked up to Zheng Yuanhai, took out the money and asked, "How old is she?" "Sixteen." Zheng Yuanhai took the money and turned around and walked towards Mei Xing'er. Lu Huai deliberately thought, no wonder I feel this way. It turns out that she is the same age as my daughter, both are sixteen years old. Zheng Yuanhai came to Mei Xing'er: "Mei Xing'er, this is your sheep money." "No, Brother Zheng, I don't want it!" Mei Xing'er evaded.Zheng Yuanhai didn't allow any further explanation, and forced it into her hands. "A sheep is not worth so much..." "Buy the rest of the review materials!" Zheng Yuanhai told her, "Study hard! I hope you can be admitted to the military academy next year, then we will be comrades-in-arms." Mei Xing'er's eyes were red. "Remember, fate is in your own hands." Zheng Yuanhai gave her a firm smile, then turned and got into the car. Looking at the truck going away, Mei Xing'er cried. Since she was a child, no one has made her miss her so much. She is reluctant to part with these relatives in military uniforms, because they treat her well, reason with her, and teach her to make decisions for herself.She vowed to be admitted to the military academy and be one of them. The convoy went further and further away, and Lu Huaicheng was also staring at Mei Xing'er through the car window, thinking silently, my daughter should be this old if she is alive, where is she now... Zheng Yuanhai went to the Marine Corps to visit Qin Siting when he came back from Longwan Mountain. Qin Siting was leading the female soldiers in the class to practice aiming with guns.Zheng Yuanhai's arrival made Qin Siting both surprised and happy, but she pretended to be indifferent on the surface. Who let you, Zheng Yuanhai, offend me for the first time? If you don't give me some seriousness, look, you don't even know that this lady has a little temper, hum ! Zheng Yuanhai smiled: "How are you recently?" "Is there anything good about it? Anyway, I will be demobilized at the end of the year." Qin Siting's face almost went up to the sky. "Are you really going?" "No one wants me to stay, so why am I still here?" "What if I want you to stay?" Zheng Yuanhai continued, "How lonely will I be if you leave?" Qin Siting was secretly proud of herself, with a happy smile on her face. Not far away, several female soldiers including Li Xiaoqian were practicing shooting, with a few bricks hanging from the guns. The deputy squad leader was checking her gun with an inspection mirror: "Where are you aiming?" Li Xiaoqian looked at Qin Siting and Zheng Yuanhai in the distance: "Look at the squad leader, how happy they are!" The class assistant laughed.
