Chapter 24
Xu Yan stood up in a fit of piss, with a military posture like a new recruit's balls. If the soldiers of the fifth company saw this scene, they would definitely lose their eyes.

Xu Yan didn't dare to show his anger, and his eyes didn't dare to look at Deputy Xiong.

Deputy Xiong stood up, put the cigarette butt in the ashtray, turned around the desk with his hands behind his back, and stood beside Xu Yan, looking at him.Standing up, Deputy Xiong has a tall figure that Xu Yan cannot match. Moreover, Deputy Xiong does not have the beer belly of some leaders, and his figure is very standard!

You can sneer at people driving Baoxiang cars, but a discerning person will never look down upon someone with a camera hanging around his neck.

Vice President Xiong is basically the leader described above.The rank of colonel is nothing. The director of the hospital directly under the brigade is still a senior colonel.The first deputy leader is nothing. How many leaders of the same level are there in the entire army?
However, today, there are only a handful of deputy colonel leaders who have participated in two large-scale wars, crawled out from the dead, and are covered with scars!
Because those people had either changed careers or been promoted, and were still in deputy leadership positions, but only Deputy Xiong was the only one in the military region.

This is the difference between Baoxiang car and Laikai camera, even though the two are of similar value!
"You still have the nerve to call me old boss." Deputy Xiong's expression was very serious and his tone of voice was very serious. "There is no chance to complain. If the opportunity comes, you will shrink back. I think you are not worthy of wearing this skin!"

Xu Yan's face suddenly turned red, and a look of sadness and shame came out. Mixed with the grievances that he did not dare to express, he finally couldn't hold it back. He gritted his teeth and said: "Sir! Loyalty and filial piety cannot have both. After putting on this military uniform, I never thought about leaving the army! But sir! It’s not that I want to leave, it’s that the army doesn’t want me!”

Tieguzhengzheng was always an expressionless man. After finishing the second half of the sentence with difficulty, tears could no longer be controlled and burst out.

When a man sheds tears, he doesn't shed them lightly, just because he hasn't reached the point where he feels sad!
Deputy Xiong did not become more angry because of Xu Yan's crying appearance. Instead, he gradually calmed down.He realized that his violent temper had unintentionally hit the most painful part in this old subordinate's heart.How could he not be clear? If there was no new infantry pilot mission, if the fifth company led by Xu Yan did not receive praise from the captain during the exercise, would Xu Yan's outcome have been changed?
At the party committee meeting two months ago, even though Xu Yan was his old subordinate, Deputy Xiong didn't stand up and say a word, he could only watch Xu Yan's change of job become a foregone conclusion!

Because Xu Yan is getting old!

For the commander of a grassroots company, 32-year-old Xu Yan is old!
Can you blame Xu Yan?

Deputy Xiong felt guilty. Such a tough guy cried like a new recruit. Can you blame him?
"okay!"

Finally, Deputy Xiong softened his tone, looked at Xu Yan and said, "Don't cry like a girl, sit down and talk to me."

After saying that, Deputy Xiong turned back to the seat and sat down, picked up the cigarette case, took out a cigarette and lit a cigarette.

The grievance at that moment quickly disappeared. Xu Yan quickly calmed down. He took off his hat and wiped it on his face to clean away the tears. He quickly recovered and sat down with an impeccable posture.

Deputy Xiong raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Yan, then threw the cigarette and lighter.Xu Yan caught it, took out one, lit it, and started smoking. It was as natural as smoking in the company headquarters.He finally recovered.

"How is your old father's injury?" Deputy Xiong asked.

Xu Yan replied: "Much better. I will be discharged after a while of rest."

Six months ago, Xu Yan's father was hit by a speeding car while doing morning exercises. He was seriously injured and the perpetrator escaped.All the officers and soldiers in the brigade knew about this, because——

Xu Yan's family background is average, and his wife is a teacher. He has been married for three years, paid for the house and had a child. The medical expenses of more than 20 to [-] yuan are beyond his ability to bear.The brigade headquarters organized donations, and the officers and soldiers of the fifth company alone donated a total of more than [-] yuan. The total donations from the entire brigade can easily cover the medical expenses of the elderly.

Things seemed to be over, but they weren't.

Xu Yan actually refused the donation! ! !
He said something that will always be remembered by all the officers and soldiers who knew about it and donated their love for it: I am a man, I am a soldier, and I can win this war by myself!
Deputy Xiong still remembered Xu Yan's expression when he said this, like a soldier who had been besieged for a long time and had run out of ammunition and food. After seeing the reinforcements arriving, he felt hidden emotion and undisguised indifference!
In the end, all the money was returned to the donor. Xu Yan borrowed money from everywhere to collect the medical expenses for his old father.The old man recovered well, but the perpetrator was never found.

In the eyes of the soldiers, Xu Yan, the fifth guard commander, was a man.

In the eyes of the cadres, Xu Yan, the fifth guard commander, was a fool.

In the eyes of the leaders, Xu Yan, the fifth guard commander, was just a child.

Deputy Xiong didn't say anything else on this topic. Behind every professional soldier, there is a silently dedicated family, including himself.I wanted to change the topic to lighten the atmosphere, but instead it made the atmosphere even heavier.Vice President Xiong, who was about to change his job, felt somewhat emotional when facing Xu Yan, who was changing jobs and getting promoted.

"The task of piloting a new type of infantry belongs to you." Deputy Xiong still cut to the chase in a very rude way according to his own character. "The captain was called by name at the meeting. The captain's original words were, I see. , this fifth company is very suitable for the pilot mission of the new infantry."

With this sentence, the entire second battalion, including the fifth company, became a pilot unit for the new infantry.

"Before I leave, let me tell you what difficulties and problems you have. If you can solve them, I will solve them for you. If you can't, report them to the higher authorities for resolution." Deputy Xiong said with a puff of smoke.

Xu Yan glanced at Deputy Xiong carefully, but asked, "Sir, do you really want to change jobs?"

Deputy Xiong's eyes suddenly widened. Xu Yan's mouth twitched, he lowered his head to think for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Can you give me a few more transfer places? It would be a pity that a few good prospects have left."

Deputy Xiong said: "The quotas are all the same. I will give you a few more. Where are the other battalions and companies? Also, when you think about the problem, you must stand from the perspective of the whole battalion and stop thinking of yourself as the guard commander."

Xu Yan suddenly felt as if several pieces of flesh had been cut off his body. His face was full of pain, and he lowered his head and sighed deeply.

"However." Deputy Xiong suddenly changed the topic, "The captain said a few words at the meeting that were related to your fifth company."

Xu Yan suddenly raised his head and looked at Deputy Xiong expectantly.

"Sir, the commander said that such soldiers must be trained to become outstanding cadres in the future." Deputy Xiong smiled slightly, "He is talking about the soldiers who were successfully 'decapitated'."

Xu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up...
