A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

Five days after the exercise ended, Shi Jin, the squad leader of the third squad of the first platoon of the seventh steel company, received a notice from the division headquarters to participate in the night shooting demonstration and night shooting show competition.

When Lu Cheng heard the news, he was delighted. This was also a signal, meaning that Shi Jin's promotion to a fourth-level non-commissioned officer had basically been decided.

Otherwise, the division would not let a veteran who was about to retire serve as a demonstration.

Shi Jin was obviously aware of this problem. He happily accepted the order from the division headquarters and went to report to the division headquarters.

After Shi Jin returned from the division headquarters, he received a transfer order from the division headquarters. Shi Jin was transferred from the 702th Steel Company of the nd Regiment to the division reconnaissance battalion directly under the division headquarters.

Although the company commander Gao Cheng was a little disappointed, he still comforted her: "At least you can stay in the army, and we can see each other often in the future, which is not bad."

At this time, Gao Cheng did not know that the 7th Steel Company was about to be disbanded. If Shi Jin really continued to stay in the 7th Steel Company, many veterans would face retirement when the 7th Steel Company was disbanded.

When Lu Cheng heard this decision, he was very happy for Shi Jin, because after the 7th Steel Company was disbanded, the company commander Gao Cheng was also assigned to the division's reconnaissance battalion as deputy battalion commander.

Wu Liuyi was also a little sad: "Squad leader, after this separation, it won't be easy to meet again."

Shi Jin patted Wu Liuyi on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will come back to see you guys as soon as I am free."

After finishing speaking, Shi Jin glanced at Wu Liuyi and Lu Cheng again and said, "If it's convenient, please help me look after Xu Sanduo from the third company."

Wu Liuyi felt a little jealous for a moment. The squad leader was about to leave, but he was still thinking about that kid Xu Sanduo.

Lu Cheng nodded: "Don't worry, we will take care of it."

On the afternoon of the day when Shi Jin left, Xu Sanduo came to the door and saw Lu Cheng in the dormitory. He smiled and said hello: "Lu Cheng, what are you busy with? Where is squad leader Shi Jin?"

Lu Cheng put away the book in his hand and said casually: "Squad Leader Shi Jin is gone."

"Gone? Where did they go?" Xu Sanduo still didn't understand.

"Transferred away, Division Reconnaissance Battalion."

Xu Sanduo was stunned on the spot.

Although he did not come to the Seventh Steel Company or the Third Squad of the First Platoon, Xu Sanduo and his men had a strong dependence on Squad Leader Shi Jin.

Even though he has now been recognized by the Red Third Company and has many friends around him, Xu Sanduo is still closest to Shi Jin in his heart, almost as if he regards Shi Jin as his mother.

Hearing about Shi Jin's departure, Xu Sanduo found it hard to accept for a moment: "Squad Leader Shi Jin, is he really gone? Why...why didn't he tell me?"

Although Xu Sanduo did not cry at this moment, the light in his eyes had lost its luster and he looked a little dazed.

Lu Cheng stood up and pulled a chair over: "Sit down. The reason why Squad Leader Shi Jin didn't tell you was because he was afraid that you would miss him. You don't have to be too sad. As long as you continue to train hard and become an excellent soldier, you will always have the opportunity to see Squad Leader Shi Jin again in the future. Besides, it's not like he won't come back."

Xu Sanduo's eyes were still a little confused: "Lu Cheng, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, we are all from the same division. Although we don't have many opportunities to meet each other, there are always times when we see each other."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Lu Cheng."

"Okay, go out and play first, don't be so polite all the time."

Not long after Xu Sanduo left, Lu Cheng saw a figure on the training ground in the distance. It was obviously Xu Sanduo going for extra training.

Lu Cheng shook his head and ignored him.

Early the next morning, Lu Cheng received an order from the regiment headquarters, asking him to rush to the division headquarters as soon as possible.

Company commander Gao Cheng drove Lu Cheng all the way to the division headquarters. He patted Lu Cheng on the shoulder and said, "I think this should be a good thing. After all, you have made many contributions before. In addition, with your academic qualifications, you should also be given an answer from above."

Lu Cheng nodded and didn't say much.

Sure enough, after arriving at the division headquarters, the division commander personally met Lu Cheng, praised Lu Cheng highly, and then said: "Lu Cheng, according to your performance, you can definitely be selected as an outstanding soldier. In addition, with your academic qualifications, it is time to promote you.

Every year, our army has a number of recommended places for you to attend the military academy for officer training. But considering your situation, you have just been in the army for a year, and there are organizational issues, so the higher-ups are going to give you a surprise assessment.

But don't worry, the test shouldn't be too difficult. You just need to perform well. "

"Yes, Commander."

"I saw that you actively approached the organization during your college years. After you return this time, a ceremony will be held for you. You should also make some preparations."

"Yes!"

In the afternoon, under the supervision of a lieutenant colonel and two major examiners, Lu Cheng took a written test on theoretical knowledge and an assessment of military skills.

The assessment lasted until the evening, and Lu Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he already had some guesses in his mind.

According to the criteria for recommending outstanding soldiers for admission, although Lu Cheng has met many conditions or even exceeded the review standards, he has only been in the army for a year and has not yet served as a squad leader.

If you are recommended to enter a general military academy for officer training, there may not be such a complicated assessment.

Moreover, this was an assessment specifically for Lu Cheng, and three examiners were sent, which was enough to show how much importance was attached to Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng was quite satisfied with his performance. Whether it was theoretical knowledge or military skills, Lu Cheng was quite impressive.

When it comes to military skills, there is no need to say much. As for theoretical knowledge, the military books that Lu Cheng usually reads are not read in vain.

After the assessment, Lu Cheng returned to the company. The instructor immediately held a ceremony for Lu Cheng to officially join the organization.

A week later, Lu Cheng received an admission notice, asking him to pack his bags and report to the National University of Defense Technology.

After receiving this news, Lu Cheng couldn't help but feel a little excited. That was the National University of Defense Technology, which was known as the Tsinghua University and Peking University in the military, and it was a place that provided the most cutting-edge talents to the entire army.

Even if another twenty years pass, if one could be admitted to this military academy, it would be enough for the whole village to beat drums and gongs, and even the mayor would come to congratulate him in person.

Gao Cheng, the son of the army commander, was somewhat envious: "You are really good, when I applied for the military academy, I wanted to go here the most. Unfortunately, my cultural level was a little low, so I had to take a step back."

The instructor was also very happy: "Lu Cheng, it is also an honor for our entire Steel Seventh Company that you can go there to study. The military academy will not give us a company, there are many geniuses there. After you go to the military academy, you must also perform well and don't embarrass our Steel Seventh Company."

"Company commander, instructor, don't worry."

"Haha, of course we trust you. When you come back, maybe you will be the same as us."

Hearing this, Lu Cheng couldn't help but feel a little sad. When he came back, the 7th Steel Company might have been disbanded. He didn't know how many of those familiar faces he would see again.

Some people may never be seen again in this life.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng walked forward and gave Gao Cheng and instructor Hong Xingguo a hug respectively: "Company commander, instructor, call me if you have anything. No matter where I go, I am a soldier of our 7th Steel Company."

"Okay, go ahead and try to get an outstanding student back."

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"

When I returned to the dormitory, everyone was waiting for Lu Cheng.

Gan Xiaoning came up and joked, "Deputy Classmate Lu, you've only been the deputy classmate for a few days, and you gave it to me. Don't you feel a little regretful?"

After Shi Jin left, Wu Liuyi took over as the squad leader of the third squad of the first platoon, and Lu Cheng became the deputy squad leader.

Wu Liuyi pushed Gan Xiaoning away and said, "It's just the deputy squad leader. Why are you so proud? When Lu Cheng comes back, you must salute him and call him the commander."

Bai Tiejun laughed: "Old Lu, should I get familiar with it in advance? Salute, hello, commander!"

"Alright, alright, stop joking. Old White, give me a hug."

Upon hearing this, Bai Tiejun took the initiative to step forward and hugged Lu Cheng, and joked: "This future great leader wants to hug me. It's an honor for me, Old Bai."

In fact, Lu Cheng knew that after the 7th Steel Company was disbanded, Bai Tiejun was among the first batch of people to be demobilized.

Although Bai Tiejun is no longer the boss of the 7th Steel Company, he is still at the bottom of the list and it should be difficult for him to stay in the army.

What's more, his own will is not strong enough, and he has not yet decided whether to become a non-commissioned officer.
