1949 I am from the future

【407】Conferred

Hearing what the Prime Minister said, Xiaoqiang also felt that the situation in front of him was very good.

As if coaxing a child, the Prime Minister finally took Xiaoqiang's hand and said softly: "Xiaoqiang, the central government has decided not to delay until 55 years like in history, but to award honors in advance. It has also decided to unify the military uniform system and not adopt the previously drafted one. The 50-style plan and the Soviet-style 55-style military uniform. I, the chairman, and the commander-in-chief discussed it together, and I feel that the [-]-style military uniform is more suitable.

The reason for this decision is that apart from the fact that the Type 50 military uniform itself is simple and simple and has an outstanding temperament, it is mainly because the fabric used in the Type 55 military uniform is the same as the Type [-] cotton cloth, which is easier to produce.And the Soviet-style [-]-style military uniform, the general school's woolen coat is also a bit out of touch with the masses, it is too high-end, and it is not warmer than the cotton coat.The six-five-style green cotton army coat is very good and practical in my opinion, and the cost is also lower.

The other styles you brought to later generations are good-looking, but the domestic chemical fiber industry is completely blank, and we are still unable to weave those wool-polyester blends or even better fabrics.

For example, the 07-style and the improved [-]-style, and even the [-]-style military uniform you suggested, the chairman and the commander-in-chief also think it looks good.However, for the three options, all officers must be given uniforms made of combed wool, and the cost is too high.Coupled with the huge scale of our country's army, the daily consumption alone is an astronomical figure, and the burden is too heavy.What's more, the current domestic woolen raw materials are not enough to meet the market needs of the common people, and it is too extravagant to use them to make military uniforms.

Although the six-five style is simple, its temperament is very in line with the current spiritual outlook of the People's Liberation Army. It is also a combination of regular clothes and combat clothes, which is very economical.Although cotton is easy to wrinkle, we will build up the chemical fiber industry in the future, and we can change the fabric into what is called Dacron. This upgrade must be done step by step, and there is no rush.

You mentioned in the plan earlier that the only problem with Type [-] is that as a combat uniform, the red star and red collar badge are too conspicuous, and there is no rank identification badge.The commander-in-chief and I have considered this issue, and we think that during the war, the red star and red collar badge can be removed. As for the identification badge, a cloth badge can be used and sewn on top of the upper left pocket.

As for the volunteers, since they have all changed into camouflage uniforms, they will not change into Type [-] military uniforms and continue to wear camouflage uniforms to save waste.After they return to China, they will change their uniforms uniformly. "

Xiaoqiang nodded again and again and said: "Prime Minister, you are right. In my previous proposal, I only thought about looking good and didn't think much about self-sufficiency. suitable."

The Prime Minister waved his hand and didn’t take it seriously. The old man asked in a deliberative tone: “Xiaoqiang, the ranks will be conferred soon. The three-level non-commissioned officer system was changed to the seven-level non-commissioned officer system that is in line with later generations, so as to better train the professionals urgently needed for our army's modern equipment construction.

After discussing with the chairman and the commander-in-chief, I plan to award you the rank of major general. Do you have any opinions?If you have an idea, you can bring it up now. "

Xiaoqiang knew that the head of departments such as the head of the Culture Department of the General Political Department, the political commissars of the Air Force of each military region, the principal of the Infantry School, and the head of the Air Force Training Department were only major generals. Taller.

"No, no, Prime Minister, I can't be fooled by this major general. If people ask me what battles I fought in? What should I say? You can't mix this up." Xiaoqiang hurriedly waved his hands.

The Prime Minister laughed and said, "There's nothing wrong with this. Major generals are divided into real and ineffective positions. Your contribution is too unique and too big to be accurately described by any position."

Xiaoqiang asked: "What is a real job but a false job?"

The Prime Minister said: "You don't have a director behind your title, and you are not responsible for a specific department. This is a false job."

Xiaoqiang said half-understood: "Oh, it's not bad, I can do it."

The prime minister smiled and said, "If you have no objection, the matter will be settled like this."

Xiao Qiang said: "As long as you don't hang up, I'm sure you don't mind."

The Prime Minister said appreciatively: "You have made such great contributions to the country, and it is very good that you can still do nothing. But you have already set a record. The youngest person on the award list this time was originally 34 years old. You The resume reported was 27 years old, but it was suddenly raised by 7 years old."

Xiaoqiang said in embarrassment: "This is too conspicuous, Prime Minister, why don't you continue to be a colonel? I will not participate in the awarding ceremony."

The Prime Minister shook his head and said: "How can this be done? The promotion is not all based on seniority. It is a comprehensive consideration of morality, talent and capital. Don't hesitate, you are going to change to a new military uniform. The cotton cloth of the new military uniform is Puhai No. [-] Textile Factory and Printing and Dyeing Factory rushed to make it, I saw that it is very strong and does not fade."

........................

After sending the prime minister into the car and watching the car drive away, Xiaoqiang and Meng Sisi turned around and went home along the alley.

Xiaoqiang thought as he walked: "The first time the People's Republic of China was awarded the title, it was actually wearing the six-five style. Mom! That thing is too rustic! Hang three first-level August [-]st medals, first-level liberation medals, and first-level independent freedom medals." After the medal, with the green cotton cloth, the marshals might find it awkward?..."

Meng Sisi held Xiaoqiang's arm, and asked curiously against Xiaoqiang: "Xiaoqiang, what did the Prime Minister whisper to you?"

"You didn't listen to the wall?"

Meng Sisi said angrily: "I hate it, they are not so miserable!"

As he spoke, he hammered Xiaoqiang on the shoulder in retaliation.

Back in the room, Xiaoqiang immediately started his own counterattack.

After stripping Meng Sisi like a white lamb, Xiaoqiang pressed down unceremoniously.For a moment, there was a loud voice in the room.

After venting for a while, Xiaoqiang rolled over to the side and fell asleep.

........................

Two weeks later, the investiture ceremony began.

Outside Zhongnanhai, there are all kinds of cars parked, the most of which is the Geely Haoqing that has just been allocated.According to Xiaoqiang's request when ordering, all of them were painted with black piano paint. Although each car was not big, it was shiny and really beautiful.

The Zhongnanhai Huairen Hall painted by Hongliang was full of generals who came to the northern capital from all over the place.Cao Xiaoqiang sat in the middle of the 15th row at the back, excited and nervous.

Due to his low rank, Cao Xiaoqiang took his seat an hour and a half earlier. Seeing that he didn't know any of the generals sitting on both sides, Cao Xiaoqiang had to sit upright and waited for the ceremony to start.

Because there were more than 1000 people in total, a lot of places were temporarily added in Huairen Hall, filling up the originally wide corridor by the wall.Sitting in the middle, Cao Xiaoqiang looked at the generals sitting on the improvised chairs on both sides of the auditorium, feeling a little uneasy.

Cao Xiaoqiang was excited, but also a little miscellaneous. His eyes rolled wildly, looking for the marshals in the front row, wanting to see the faces he was familiar with.At the same time, he also made up his mind that if someone asked him about his work and resume, he would answer "secret unit" according to Minister Li's instructions.

But in a sea of ​​army and air green and navy gray, it was not easy to spot those familiar faces one by one.

As the Chairman, Comrade Shaoqi, and the Prime Minister entered the arena at the same time, all the generals stood up and applauded, and the scene suddenly became warm and solemn.

Xiaoqiang was wearing a green military uniform ironed by Meng Sisi, clapping vigorously below, tiptoeing to see clearly.

First of all, Li Weihan, Secretary-General of the Government Affairs Council, read out the awarding order. After a short speech, the chairman walked from behind the stage to the front and said into the microphone: "I guess, the marshal uniform of our Chinese People's Liberation Army is different from that of other countries in the world. Compared with the marshal's uniform, it is the simplest and most common. Why is this? It's not that we can't afford ten sets of gorgeous clothes inlaid with gold and silver. It's because our army comes from the people. Generals also come from the people. From generals to soldiers, they all come from the same class, and there is no difference.

So in the future, will we have better-looking marshal uniforms and general uniforms?I think there will be, because our millions of soldiers of the People's Liberation Army will travel better and better. Only when soldiers wear well, generals can wear better.

Regarding the awarding of titles, this is necessary, it is beneficial for us to communicate with foreign troops, and we have equal identities..."

After the chairman's speech, there was thunderous applause from the audience.

Then began the awarding ceremony.First, the chairman conferred titles on the ten marshals and issued medals and orders, and then the prime minister issued orders and medals to the ten founding generals.

Seeing familiar figures wearing green military uniforms standing on the rostrum, receiving medals and orders one by one, Xiaoqiang felt extremely honored.

"I was actually able to see this scene with my own eyes, and I was in it..." Thinking of this, Xiaoqiang couldn't help his eyes getting wet.

"Although I didn't catch up with the founding ceremony, it's great to be able to catch up with the awarding ceremony! This is the first time the Chinese People's Liberation Army has been awarded a title after 23 years since its founding!"

This time, the chairman, as in history, still declined the rank of generalissimo.He commanded thousands of troops, and he never fired a single shot.He created the People's Republic, but he himself was not a generalissimo.In Xiaoqiang's eyes, the tall chairman's figure is still so simple, as usual.

There was still a lot of turmoil in the evaluation of the title this time. Some generals felt that their comrades who died on the battlefield were the real heroes. Get emotional.

But these are not Xiaoqiang's qualifications to care about.He has only one thought now, after he takes the stage, he must stop shaking.

Yes, with the sound of military music in the auditorium, Cao Xiaoqiang is trembling now, and the slightest problem he hasn't seen for a long time has happened again.

When the row of generals who followed him came to the stage, many people were surprised that Cao Xiaoqiang looked so young.But no one would dare to imagine that this person is only 27 years old.

This row of generals belonged to Huaye. As usual, Marshal Chen Yi came to present the awards. Boss Chen saluted step by step and issued medals and orders.When he arrived at Xiaoqiang's place, Xiaoqiang suppressed his nervousness, forgot the thousands of pairs of eyes staring at him behind him, and hurriedly saluted.

Boss Chen suddenly smiled cunningly, took out three boxes from the plate, and handed them to Cao Xiaoqiang. Xiaoqiang almost fainted when he saw them. They were actually a third-level independent freedom medal, an independent freedom medal and an independent freedom medal. A Second Class Liberation Medal!

After handing over the title order to Xiaoqiang, Boss Chen suddenly laughed and patted him on the shoulder. This meaningful action attracted the attention of the audience.

After that, Xiao Qiang bravely stepped off the stage, feeling his face flushed with embarrassment, as if he had taken something that did not belong to him.These three medals, strictly speaking, have nothing to do with him.Xiaoqiang comforted himself secretly, but luckily he didn't give him an August [-]st medal, otherwise Cao Xiaoqiang would really be a liar.
