Soldiers Assault: Starting from the 7th Steel Company

Chapter 53 Someone from the Division Arrives

The next morning, other companies in the regiment sent people to move things.

Although Gao Cheng still looked annoyed, he didn't say anything unpleasant. He simply waved his hand and walked out with a grim face.

The non-commissioned officers who came to move things looked embarrassed and told Chen Jiang and the others with sad faces that they didn't want to come, but the regiment had ordered them to make full use of the idle items of the Seventh Company.

Chen Jiang naturally understood the reason behind this. They were just following orders.

Besides, most of the soldiers from the Seventh Company have left, so it would be a waste to keep these things here.

So not only did he and Xu Sanduo help them move the things, but he also tried to comfort them, saying, "The company commander is in a bad mood, don't take it to heart."

The non-commissioned officers didn't dare to take it to heart. They hurriedly counted the necessary supplies, loaded them into the car, and ran away.

Of course, before leaving, he did not forget to salute Chen Jiang and others to express his gratitude.

After the things were moved, the traces left behind also needed to be cleaned up, so Chen Jiang and Xu Sanduo naturally became busy again.
It was almost lunchtime when Gao Cheng came back to invite Chen Jiang and the others to eat.

Along the way, the three of them walked in unison, causing passers-by to look back frequently.

The rule of two people in a row and three people in a column was set for the soldiers. Officers didn't actually have to follow it, especially since it was a captain and two privates who were not even NCOs, standing in a column of three.

When they arrived at the cafeteria entrance, Gao Cheng wanted to lead everyone in directly, but Chen Jiang and Xu Sanduo started singing military songs at the position of the seventh company.

When this song was sung, everyone looked over.
A two-person company can actually sing so powerfully?

"Seventh Brother, take your soldiers in."

The captain of the Sixth Company couldn't stand it any longer. Anyway, it was their turn, so it didn't matter if three more people were added.

As a result, Gao Cheng's stubbornness was aroused.
"After the Sixth Company comes the Seventh Company, you go in first!"

Then he stood at the front of the line and sang loudly.

The Sixth Company Commander was now very embarrassed and could only wave his hands at his soldiers, "What are you looking at? Go inside and eat! Line up neatly!"

After the Seventh Company's song was finally finished, Gao Cheng saw that there seemed to be room inside, so he took Chen Jiang and Xu Sanduo in step and walked in to eat.

Seeing that there were still a few empty seats at the end of the sixth company, Gao Cheng said, "This place is nice! It's spacious!"

Upon seeing this, the Sixth Company Commander immediately sent someone to invite Gao Cheng over and sit at the table with the platoon leaders. However, Gao Cheng did not appreciate it and said with a smile that he also wanted to feel the equality between officers and soldiers.

When the Sixth Company Commander heard this, he could no longer sit still. He walked over and begged for mercy to take away the three people's tableware, and dragged them to sit at his table.

"Seventh Brother, I'm truly impressed. Even though your Seventh Company doesn't have many soldiers left, you still managed to muster the momentum of an entire company."

"Wait, there's something wrong with what you said. First, the soldiers of the Seventh Company were merely transferred away, not that they were no longer in service. Second, is there any need to tinker with the Seventh Company's morale?"

Gao Cheng still spoke in such a harsh tone, but the Sixth Company Commander was really convinced today.

So I just kept saying nice things to him.

The food on the officers' tables was the same as the soldiers', except that the Sixth Company Commander had the quartermaster go to the kitchen and ask for more food so Gao Cheng and the others could eat more. This was his way of showing his appreciation. But Gao Cheng didn't have a big appetite.
On the other hand, Chen Jiang and Xu Sanduo were eating voraciously.

"Seventh Brother, don't worry about such a trivial matter."

"I'm not worried. Who said I was? I've come to terms with it now. Even if the Seventh Company is transferred and I'm the only one left guarding the barracks, I'm still the company commander, right? Even if I'm the only company commander, I'm still a company commander!"

The Sixth Company Commander smiled faintly upon hearing this. "That's right! But look at the three of you. One is an outstanding graduate of the military academy, one won first place in the entire group army shooting competition, and one is the regiment's top military skill expert. You're all well-known figures. The organization must have other plans for you three to stay behind. Maybe you've all been promoted!"

"Forget it, it doesn't matter whether I get promoted or not!" Gao Cheng took a big bite of his rice and said, "They two definitely won't stay long. Chen Jiang's promotion selection will probably start soon. Xu Sanduo, such an outstanding soldier, aren't you jealous? I don't believe it!"

The Sixth Company Commander felt embarrassed after hearing this. He was indeed quite interested in Xu Sanduo. Which company didn't hope to win over the best talent from the Seventh Steel Company?
Forget about Chen Jiang. He has a bright future. After he is promoted, he will have to study in military academy for a year. But Xu Sanduo can definitely try for it.

But after Gao Cheng said that, I found it a little difficult to speak.

At this time, a soldier from the public service squad stood behind Gao Cheng.
"Excuse me, is Captain Gao Cheng of the Seventh Company here?"

Gao Cheng turned his head and saw that he recognized the soldier. It turned out that he was also a soldier from the seventh company and was assigned to the official duties class this time.

The public servant, of course, recognized Gao Cheng and immediately stood at attention, reporting loudly:

"Reporting to the captain of the seventh company, the regimental commander has ordered you to go to his office immediately!"

By the way, he also made a wink,

"Should I tell you some inside information?"

Gao Cheng was stunned. He had only spent such a short time with Chen Jiang and Xu Sanduo, but he was already not used to their non-serious way of talking.

"If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have to fart, fart quickly! If it's good news, we'll let you out of this door. If not, the company will use you to improve the food tonight!" The sixth company commander joked with him with a smile.

But it still scared the public servants enough.
"No, no, no, I'll tell you right now. Someone's coming from the division. I see it's Deputy Director Liu from the division's political department!"

"Okay, okay, I understand. Go away!"

The Sixth Company Commander waved his hand, and the public service soldier hurried outside, turning back and shouting, "Company Commander, please hurry up! The regimental commander and the others are waiting for you there!"

Deputy Director Liu and several other company commanders all knew that he was in charge of personnel affairs. Since he came in person, he must be looking for a talk with Gao Cheng. To be more precise, it must be Gao Sheng.

Because only promotions to important positions require him to personally take action and conduct pre-appointment interviews.

The Sixth Company Commander and the squad leaders at the table all applauded Gao Cheng at the same time.

Gao Cheng was actually very excited, but he still finished the food in the bowl, wiped his mouth with his hand, and adjusted his collar.
"Then you guys eat slowly. I'll go take a look first. I guess it's not a big deal."

After he left, the soldiers of the Sixth Company looked at Chen Jiang and Xu Sanduo with some pity.

To be precise, this pity was given to Xu Sanduo, because Chen Jiang had a place to go, and now only Xu Sanduo was left wandering around.

"Come on, you two, eat more. The quartermaster has prepared a lot of good meat for you. These are all authentic pork belly, so delicious!" The captain of the sixth company was not good at comforting people. He just kept putting food into their bowls.
