After Han Xiao received his military medal, Tong Weiguo followed the previous pattern and introduced Luo Feng and the other soldiers and officers who had also performed outstandingly in the military exercise. Then, he gave them their awards.
However, Han Xiao was the only one who received a second-class military merit medal. The others either received a third-class military merit medal or something else.
A few hours later.
After the meeting ended, Han Xiao followed Yang Zhan back to the 3rd Regiment.
Before returning to the company, Regiment Commander Yang Zhan spoke to Han Xiao earnestly for a few minutes. The general meaning was that Han Xiao had a bright and open future and must continue to maintain it. Han Xiao did not dare to slack off. After a serious response, he went to the 4th Company that was training at the shooting range.
"Report! Class 6, Han Xiao requests to return to the team!"
Han Xiao, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, jogged to Wang Guoliang and Instructor He Jiadong and reported.
Following his report, the soldiers of the 4th Company who were queuing up for shooting training all looked over.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the golden military medal on the chest of Han Xiao's uniform.
In the team, Li Zhendong revealed a surprised expression and said softly,"F * ck! Second-class military merit medal!"
Wu Liguo gave him a thumbs up and said,"Han Xiao, awesome!"
"Tsk tsk, a second-class individual merit. You have nothing to say about it. I, Zhu Yong, admire you."”
From the corner of their eyes, everyone saw Wang Guoliang smiling happily when he saw Han Xiao reporting back.
"Good boy, you didn't embarrass me with your second-class military merit. Haha!"
Wang Guoliang laughed loudly and did not hide his praise at all. He Jiadong, who was at the side, also looked proud. After all, he was the one who caught Han Xiao's training.
Han Xiao grinned and said,
"Company commander, instructor!"
"Speak!"
Wang Guoliang ordered.
Everyone saw Han Xiao take out a red military medal box from the right pocket of his uniform.
Han Xiao opened it, and it was another second-class medal!
Wang Guoliang and He Jiadong looked at the second second-class medal in front of them. Their eyelids instantly widened, and the muscles at the corners of their eyes twitched.
" This..." Wang Guoliang pointed at the military medal and asked Han Xiao.
That expression seemed to be questioning whether Han Xiao was joking with props. Since when were second-class military merit medals so common on the streets? Could you get two of them back just by making a trip to the division headquarters?
"Company commander! This was the collective second-class medal that the division commander had awarded to Class 6. Moreover, the division commander had also bestowed Class 6 with the title of Hero Guardian.”
Han Xiao reported truthfully. After he finished speaking, he did not forget to raise his eyebrows at Li Zhendong and the others in the team.
All of a sudden, the soldiers of the 4th Company lost their composure. Even the few soldiers who were shooting were not in the mood to shoot and listened attentively.
"Good fellow!"
Wang Guoliang and He Jiadong gasped when they heard Han Xiao's report.
"This time, the 4th Company and even the entire 3rd Regiment have become famous in the Flying Tiger Division!”He Jiadong sighed.
Wang Guoliang nodded in agreement. After all, it was difficult for a company to not be famous if they achieved an individual second-class merit and a collective second-class merit.
"Alright, put away your military medal and return to the team!”
After recovering from his shock, Wang Guoliang ordered.
Not long after, the training ended and the Fourth Company returned to camp.
At night, Class 6, who had won the title of Hero Guardian, became a popular attraction in the entire dormitory building. Everyone came to admire the glory of the two second-class Merit Badges.
Li Zhendong and Han Xiao also took them out to show off. After all, after being in the army for a few years, not to mention getting a military medal, most soldiers did not even have the chance to look at the military medal up close.
......
The next morning.
Downstairs of the Fourth Company's dormitory, Company Commander Wang Guoliang said that he had two things to announce. The first was to confer a personal title to Han Xiao.
Conferring a title was a moment that every soldier would never forget.
Changing your military rank means that you have been integrated into this disciplined army. It also means that you are loyal to the motherland and the people.
However, at this moment, all the soldiers of the 4th Company looked at Han Xiao, who had been called out by the company commander Wang Guoliang, and saw that he had been stripped of his first-class soldier rank.
Then, he would be given a new military rank.
Everyone was very convinced in their hearts. After all, this was what Han Xiao deserved.
Immediately after, when Han Xiao and Wang Guoliang finished saluting each other, the soldiers of the Fourth Company applauded Han Xiao under the guidance of the instructor.
However, when Han Xiao turned around and saluted his comrades in the Fourth Company.
Amidst the originally intense applause, faces revealed shocked expressions.
Li Zhendong widened his eyes and exclaimed in a low voice,"12 cents, first lieutenant rank…When we see this kid in the future, we have to salute him and call him chief!”
" I said yesterday that Han Xiao would at least become a sergeant," Wu Liguo said." I didn't expect him to become a lieutenant."”
In the team, the 1st Platoon Leader Zhu Yong, 2nd Platoon Leader, and 3rd Platoon Leader who had been in the army for four to five years saw Han Xiao become a first lieutenant. For some reason, their faces began to burn.
Zhu Yong couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, This kid joined the army when he was 18. He's only 20 now, right? I'm convinced!"
Han Xiao also noticed that everyone's expressions were not right. He immediately stole a glance at the military rank on his shoulder from the corner of his eye.
Heh, good fellow, Lieutenant!
Then, Wang Guoliang waved at everyone to signal for them to be quiet. He had something to say.
"Everyone must be curious about Han Xiao's rank as a first lieutenant, right?”
"Don't be curious, and don't be jealous. This was the decision of the higher-ups to make an exception and promote Han Xiao.”
"Moreover, his information has already entered the talent database of the entire military region. If you can do the same thing as this kid, you will receive the same treatment.”
"Han Xiao, return to the team. Next, I will talk about the second matter.”
After Han Xiao returned to the team, everyone heard him say,"In three days, the annual selection of the special forces in the southeast war zone will begin. If you have any ideas, submit your report to me in the afternoon. Han Xiao, you must write it.”
After Wang Guoliang finished speaking, he left.
His comrades gathered around Han Xiao and congratulated him enthusiastically.
Meanwhile, Han Xiao was complaining endlessly in his heart. He was actually called out to participate in the selection of the special forces. He had just killed the Wolf King Special Forces. This was sending him to the tiger's mouth!
