The originally planned five-day exercise ended in just one day, no, it was completed in one night.
This incident immediately caused a sensation in the G theater.
At first, when they saw Shao Xianyong's background setting for the exercise, many people felt that Li Zheng was sad at this level.
Unexpectedly, the exercise was over in just one night.
The top commander of the blue team was captured, his front finger was hit by an anti-ship missile, and even Island C fell into the enemy's hands.
There is no need for the blue team to continue the exercise.
"Company Commander!"
At dawn, Zhao Yuan ran over to the beach of Island C excitedly.
"What's wrong?"
Li is eating individual soldier food.
After working hard all night, I was a little hungry.
Everything you eat really tastes delicious at this moment.
The single soldier food that I usually get tired of eating is especially delicious today.
"Company commander, go to the airport quickly, the commander is coming!"
"Chief?!"
Li Zheng almost choked to death on a mouthful of rice.
“Ahem, cough, cough—what chief?”
He thought he was the leader of the army group.
Zhaoyuan said: "He is the commander of the war zone!"
"When will it arrive?" Li Zheng asked.
"Within half an hour!" Zhaoyuan said: "The plane will take off."
Li Zheng hurriedly swallowed the last bite of beef fried rice, put away his packaging, put his assault bag on his back, and followed Zhaoyuan towards the airport.
Shao Xianyong flew directly to Island C with a group of theater and army and brigade leaders.
Li Zheng was standing on the lawn near the apron, watching two helicopters land in succession. The leader who came out of the cabin was too familiar. Besides Shao Xianyong, who else was there?
After getting off the plane, Shao Xianyong went straight to Li Zheng.
Li Zheng saluted, and he returned the salute.
The sound of the helicopter propeller gradually subsided, and everyone's eyes fell on Li Zheng and Shao Xianyong.
Shao Xianyong refused to move, and no one dared to move.
The secretary reminded in a low voice: "Chief, do you want to go to the company headquarters first?"
Shao Xianyong shook his head slightly, his eyes always sizing up the young special operations officer in front of him.
Of course it wasn't the first time they met.
However, Shao Xianyong felt that meeting Li Zheng this time was different from the Li Zheng he had met before.
He saw changes in Li Zheng, the kind of vibrant and continuous upward changes.
Just like a sapling, if you look at it after a while, you will find that it has grown vigorously. Although it has not grown into a towering tree, it should be lush and green in its own right.
He walked forward, reached out and put his hands on Li Zheng's shoulders, and looked over and over at the face covered with oil paint, just like a collector looking at a favorite piece, full of joy.
"This is the most exciting special forces confrontation I have ever seen. Before the exercise started, someone said that the questions I asked were too difficult. No, it could be said to be difficult. Many people thought you would lose, but you still won."
Lao Shao got straight to the point and went straight to the point without beating around the bush.
"In this reform of the special forces in the theater, your company has fulfilled its mission and set a very good example. Therefore, I will make a suggestion to the organization and award your company a third-class collective merit."
After a pause, he added: "As for you, let me decide for you. Do you want to make meritorious service or be promoted?"
It is very rare for a leader of Shao Xianyong's level to speak so directly.
Everyone around looked at him in surprise.
Li Zheng was very calm and replied: "Chief, I have done enough meritorious service."
Shao Xianyong smiled and said: "This is the first time I have seen an officer who dislikes himself for having done too many meritorious services."
Li Zhengdao: "I don't dislike it, I just think it's enough. I'm still young and I always feel that military medals are too heavy. There are too many military medals for me to carry."
Shao Xianyong was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect that the young man in front of him could be so majestic.
Suddenly, there was a little more appreciation in my eyes.
"Reward according to merit, God is just and fair! You say."
Li Zheng thought for a while: "Report to the leader, I have received the greatest reward, and it was given by you!"
This time, the people around him were stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh knowingly.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Shao Xianyong was in a good mood, but he didn't expect that Li Zheng would dare to say that.
Obviously, the "biggest reward" he mentioned was referring to Shao Xiaoqian.
This is not an exaggeration.
Shao Xiaoqian is the apple of Lao Shao's eye, and she has given it to Li Zheng as his fiancée. Is there any greater reward than this?
"I heard that you like to study the special forces of country Y. Did the tactical inspiration this time come from them?" Shao Xianyong changed the subject and asked about tactics: "Which combat example did you refer to?"
Li Zheng said: "The special forces of Country Y are the model with the best actual combat results. However, no action can be replicated. I am only learning their tactical spirit and thinking, not copying their operational tactics."
"well said."
Shao Xianyong nodded and agreed with Li Zheng's statement.
"Tell me, Li Zheng."
Lao Shao asked, "If you changed your position, could you be as good as you are today?"
Li Zheng said: "Excellence is not shaped by the position, but by the person in the position. Therefore, the key lies in the person, not the position."
Shao Xianyong finally retracted his hands, then clenched his fist and punched Li Zheng's chest twice, at the strongest point, then released it, clenched it again, hit it twice more, and finally turned around and left without saying anything.
Seeing the helicopter leaving, the soldiers in the company were dumbfounded.
I thought there would be a meeting to summarize and review, but I didn't expect that the leader didn't follow the routine and just came up and said a few words to Li Zheng, then asked for credit for Yilian and left?
Everyone looked at the company commander and exchanged glances with each other.
Everyone remembers what Shao Xianyong said before——
If you change positions...
Does this mean that the company commander will be promoted?
When I thought of this, the joy brought by the collective third-class merit was suddenly blown away by the sea breeze.
An iron camp and flowing soldiers.
After returning from Island C, various theories about Li Zheng's transfer began to spread in the Tiger Brigade.
Although this exercise is small in scale, it is only an exercise in a theater.
But the sensational effect is very powerful.
Almost everyone has heard about it.
Everyone is talking about what Shao Xianyong said face to face on Island C.
Li Zheng was about to be promoted, and the news became more and more popular.
But where will he go?
This incident became the focus of discussion.
Most people think that they will be promoted on the spot.
In the Tiger Brigade, he is promoted to the acting battalion commander of a special operations battalion, and then becomes a full-time officer after one year, or directly serves as the deputy battalion commander, and then is promoted to the full-time battalion after passing the time.
No one dared to be dissatisfied with Li Zheng's promotion.
Although everyone knew about the relationship between him and Lao Shao, no one dared to be dissatisfied at all because he relied on his true abilities.
However, it had been almost two months since the news of the promotion had spread, and there was no movement from Li Zheng. Instead, another surprising thing happened.
While everyone was speculating on Li Zheng's whereabouts, the commander of the Tiger Brigade solemnly resigned and was reportedly going to study in the National Defense General Class.
This means that Lao Zhuang will have a gold star.
The person who succeeded Lao Zhuang was Deputy Brigade Commander Han Xiaobei.
Han Xiaobei also has sufficient qualifications in the special operations brigade. He was transferred here as the deputy brigade commander at the beginning of the reorganization and was in charge of military training.
I thought I was going to leave, but I didn't.
I didn't expect to leave, so I left.
The veterans of the Tiger Brigade were suddenly confused and at a loss.
