Volume 1: The Empire Awakens Chapter 54 Brotherhood (Part 2)
In the small restaurant, three people asked for a private room.
The person who delivered the food was not the little girl named Qiong Yuhua, but the proprietress.
It seems that Hao Dongjue often comes here to eat and has become familiar with the proprietress.
They chatted for a while while the proprietress served the dishes.
After the wine and food were served, Tan Renhao asked Chang Jianxin, who was near the door, to close the door.
"Dong Jue, to be honest, you are pretty lucky."
Tan Renhao laughed.
"What's the meaning?"
Hao Dongjue looked at Tan Renhao with some confusion.
Tan Renhao turned the glass and said after a while: "I can tell you why, but these few bottles of beer are not enough for Lao Chang alone. You should at least get a few bottles of Moutai, Wuliangye, or Nv'erhong, Xinghuacun or something to treat us, right?"
Hao Dongjue was stunned, then immediately stood up with a smile.
"Okay, let's go with each other. I'll go order some wine."
After Hao Dongjue left, Chang Jianxin asked, "Renhao, do you think the chances are good?"
Tan Renhao glanced at Chang Jianxin and nodded.
"I can assure you that not only will we not be punished this time, General Liao Hanxiang will even reward us in disguise."
"Why?"
Chang Jianxin frowned slightly.
"Because General Liao Hanxiang has long been dissatisfied with the Fifth Air Wing, or rather, he is dissatisfied with the current system."
Tan Renhao took out a cigarette, lit one for Chang Jianxin first, and then lit one for himself, "From the perspective of combat use, the Fifth Air Wing is the arm of the Fifth Fleet and the attack force of the Fifth Fleet. Without the Fifth Air Wing, the Fifth Fleet is nothing.
Therefore, the Fifth Air Wing should be directly under the Fifth Fleet, just like the gunners and soldiers on any battleship belong to the battleship's command and cannot form an independent army.
Now, the Fifth Air Wing is actually a brother unit of the Fifth Fleet. The two are not subordinate to each other and are parallel organizations. Do you think General Liao Hanxiang will be satisfied?"
Chang Jianxin shook his head. It was very obvious that General Liao Hanxiang would not let someone else wield the sharpest sword in his hand while he could only watch from the side.
At this time, Hao Dongjue came back with two bottles of Xinghua Village in his hands.
"Renhao, Lao Chang, this is the boss's aged fine wine. I spent several hundred dollars to buy it!"
"Don't worry, we won't be polite!"
Tan Renhao laughed, "Dongjue, you are the number one troublemaker, but this time, General Liao Hanxiang must thank you for causing this trouble."
"Thank me?"
Hao Dongjue looked at Tan Renhao in disbelief, "I'm lucky that Commander Liao didn't tear me to pieces. Will he thank me ?"
Tan Renhao nodded very affirmatively, and then asked: "Do you know what 'send training' means?"
Hao Dongjue frowned and then nodded.
"Sending for training" actually means that the troops recommend officers and soldiers to go to military academies for further studies.
Every year, each fleet has a number of training quotas, and only the best officers can be recommended to military academies for further study.
Further study in a military academy is full-time study, so officers have to temporarily leave the military organization.
"You don't need to worry. General Liao Hanxiang has decided to expel the three of us from the army!"
Tan Renhao let out a long sigh, "However, we are not being demobilized, but going to a military academy for further studies. It looks like we are going to an aviation academy."
Now, Hao Dongjue looked at Tan Renhao with even more disbelief.
"Renhao, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
Tan Renhao shook his head. "Didn't you hear what Chief of Staff Wu Xianyu said? This year, our fleet still has three places for training.
If nothing goes wrong, after the spring military exercise, General Liao Hanxiang will assign the three of us to study in an aviation school for one or two years.
I think it should be Chengdu Aviation College or Chongqing Aviation School.
Anyway, it should be a flight school at the command academy level."
"That's impossible. Could it be that we have turned this into a blessing in disguise?"
Hao Dongjue suddenly burst into laughter, and threw away the worry he had when he was about to be taught a lesson.
"If we go to the Chengdu Aviation School, then two years later, when we return to the fleet, we will all be promoted at least one rank, and you may even be promoted directly to captain."
Tan Renhao said this with certainty. He spent a lot of time studying the personnel promotion system of the imperial army.
"By then, if General Liao Hanxiang has taken control of the Fifth Air Wing, he will most likely be assigned to the department that manages aviation operations after we return. This is a very rare opportunity."
Chang Jianxin nodded continuously, but he cared more about whether he could be promoted to captain as soon as possible. If he was still a second lieutenant after another three years, he would have no future in the navy.
"Renhao, then aren't we going to post it?"
Hao Dongjue immediately poured three glasses of wine. "Let's not talk about anything else. It's all thanks to Renhao's help that we three brothers were able to encounter such a good thing. I'll toast you first."
"Renhao, I toast you too!"
Chang Jianxin also immediately picked up the wine glass and offered his wine to Buddha, without him having to pay for it.
Tan Renhao smiled and picked up the wine glass.
"Why are we three brothers still talking about this? Drink!"
The three of them were happy, or even excited, at the thought of having the opportunity to receive training and being promoted across levels in two years.
In less than half an hour, two bottles of Xinghua Village were destroyed.
"Yuhua, serve the wine!"
Hao Dongjue still had the same temper, and he completely lost his usual composure once he got drunk.
"Dongjue, Yuhua has gone home to school, stop yelling!"
Chang Jianxin also drank too much. This was the first time he got drunk in front of Tan Renhao. Maybe he was too happy.
"Yuhua? Lao Chang, are you talking about the boss lady's daughter?"
Tan Renhao didn't drink much, but he can drink quite a lot.
"Yeah, you saw it last time you came, right?"
Chang Jianxin laughed, "That girl is pretty good. If I hadn't been married, I would never have let Dongjue succeed. Do you know? When you were at the Navy Headquarters, Dongjue came here for dinner almost every day , and sometimes he didn't come back until midnight. Do you know what this boy is up to?"
"Lao Chang, you are not a good friend. What haven't I told you? Don't give me some bad medicine, or I will never forgive you!"
Hao Dongjue laughed, and his laugh was very lewd.
Tan Renhao immediately understood that Hao Dongjue must be interested in the girl, and might even have made a fait accompli.
The three of them were very happy that night, and in the end even Tan Renhao was drunk.
