The sharp and surprised screams of Lin Tao and Li Hao immediately attracted everyone in the squadron.

Including squadron leader Wu Haitao not far away.

"Jiang Fan!"

"Your boy is back!"

Wu Haitao ran over in surprise.

"Hello, squadron leader!"

Jiang Fan immediately stood at attention and saluted Wu Haitao.

Wu Haitao pointed to Jiang Fan's military rank and said in shock: "You... you are already a major?"

Li Hao and Lin Tao next to them noticed Jiang Fan's military rank at this moment, and their eyes nearly popped out.

"No!"

The two of them stepped forward, touching and looking at Jiang Fan's rank of major.

"Lao Jiang, didn't you buy your military rank from outside? No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look real!"

Snapped!

Jiang Fan slapped their hands away.

"Go, go, go! It's you who don't believe this is real."

Jiang Fan cursed: "Do I have the guts to change my fake military rank?"

"No! Since it's not false, then you are now a major?"

Li Hao asked quickly.

Jiang Fan said helplessly: "Why can't I become a major? Am I weak?"

Lin Tao and Li Hao looked at each other, then looked at Jiang Fan at the same time, "You are not weak. But...but, you have only been in the army for more than two years."

"When I left, I was a lieutenant. Why did I become a major after more than two years? You were flying!"

Li Hao pointed to Wu Haitao on the side and said: "Look at our squadron leader, when you left, he was a major. Now, he is still a major."

Wu Haitao suddenly had a dark look on his face and said with a straight face: "I said you two were just cursing me in a roundabout way, right?"

Lin Tao and Li Hao immediately realized that there was a mistake in what they said, and quickly smiled at Wu Haitao and said, "Squadron Captain, no, no, no, we didn't mean that."

"We were just too surprised. You said, Lao Jiang...he..."

Wu Haitao rolled his eyes at them, then looked at Jiang Fan and said, "If it were someone else, maybe this would be impossible."

"But if it happens to Jiang Fan, the possibility is still very high."

"Don't forget, before he left the military academy and joined the army, he had one second-class meritorious service and three third-class meritorious service in his hands!"

"With this military merit, after joining the army, you can be promoted to the rank of captain within a period of time."

"With his strength, he is definitely a peerless presence in the army. It is still possible for him to achieve one or two more military exploits in the army."

"With military exploits and promotion, it's natural that it's not a problem."

"What I said is right, Jiang Fan?"

Jiang Fan smiled and said, "The squadron leader still understands me."

"No, Lao Jiang, what exactly did you experience in the army? Didn't you say that after leaving the army, combat achievements are very rare? How did you get directly promoted to major? Tell me! Tell me!"

Li Hao and Lin Tao looked like they were gossiping.

"I'm talking about you two!"

Wu Haitao said seriously to the two of them: "Have you forgotten what time it is now and what your identities are??"

"The soldiers in your squad are watching you! Don't you need to manage them?"

The two of them realized that it was not two or three years ago now.

"Sorry, sorry."

Li Hao smiled apologetically and said to the squadron leader, then he said to Jiang Fan: "Lao Jiang, you have to chat with the squadron leader first. In half an hour, the afternoon training will be over."

"Let's talk while eating tonight!"

"Okay." Jiang Fan nodded.

On the lawn.

Wu Haitao and Jiang Fan sat side by side.

Looking at the military rank on Jiang Fan, Wu Haitao smiled happily and said: "From the moment you left the military academy and entered the army, I knew that you would definitely make achievements in the army."

"I didn't expect you to be faster than I thought! Now you are on an equal footing with me."

Jiang Fan said: "No! Squadron leader, you will always be my squadron leader, even if I get promoted again in the future."

Wu Haitao looked pleased, "Okay, with your words, it's not in vain that I took you along in the first place."

Jiang Fan said: "I thought you were no longer in school when I came back this time."

Wu Haitao said: "If we had come back a few months later, we would really be gone."

"Li Hao and Lin Tao are already seniors and will leave the army in the middle of the year."

"As for me, the transfer order has also come. It is also the middle of the year and I will be disbanding the troops."

Jiang Fan was slightly surprised, "You want to leave too?"

Wu Haitao smiled and said: "There is nothing strange. If you look at our school, except for a few who are outstanding in teaching, they are actually only suitable to be teachers and professors. Among the others, which one does not have grassroots army experience?"

"Entering a military school is for further study. Joining the army is for practice."

"These two complement each other. After I graduated from the military academy, I served in the army for three years, and then I was transferred back and served as a squadron leader for several years."

"It's normal to go back to the army now."

Jiang Fan nodded, "That's right. I have been in the military academy and my development is indeed limited."

"If you join the grassroots troops, you will have more opportunities. Although we often say that when you are a soldier, you should protect your home and country and don't pay too much attention to interests. But as the saying goes, soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers."

"When you work in the grassroots units, you have more opportunities and more ways to show your skills, making your military life more diverse."

Wu Haitao smiled and said: "You can do it. I have been in the army for more than two years and have gained a lot of experience. Now you know how to educate me here."

Jiang Fan quickly said: "I don't dare. I'm just happy for you."

Wu Haitao said: "You are kidding, why are you nervous? By the way, when you come back this time, you won't come back alone to see us, right?"

Jiang Fan smiled, "What do you think?"

Wu Haitao said: "I guess she is your sister."

"Tell me, why are you back?"

Jiang Fan said: "It's a secret. You'll know it in two days."

Wu Haitao: "..."

dinner.

Li Hao and Lin Tao directly took Jiang Fan to the cooking class, pulled out a table alone, and the three of them started a small stove.

"Lao Jiang, how are you doing in the army?"

Li Hao asked Jiang Fan curiously.

Jiang Fan said: "It's okay."

"Is there a big difference between the army and the military academy?"

"If you're in the army, you should be more tired and have more things to worry about."

"However, won't you graduate in a few months? I advise you to improve your physical fitness and military skills as much as possible in the last six months."

The two of them were startled and asked curiously: "Why? When we go down, we don't start from the top soldiers, don't we directly become the platoon leaders?"

Jiang Fan said: "In most cases, you start from the platoon leader."

"But you have to know that those who directly join the army as soldiers are not as easy to lead as freshmen in military schools."

"There will be a lot of strong and tough soldiers. If they are stronger than you, they will definitely jump harder. And if you don't have the strength, you want to suppress it just by the military rank and position on your shoulders.

It will be very difficult to live with them!”

The two heard this and were about to speak.

Jiang Fan immediately interrupted them and said:

"Don't talk about disobeying orders being dealt with directly by military discipline. There is a saying you've heard, the law does not punish the public."

"You're not strong enough, and even a platoon of soldiers doesn't obey you. What should you do?"

"If you dare to report it, when the leaders come down to investigate, will they deal with them, or will they doubt your ability to lead troops?"

When the two heard this, they fell silent immediately.
