The weapon of the country

The inauguration ceremony this time was somewhat deserted, General Wei said he was busy with military affairs and was unable to attend.The mainstream guess is that the candidate for captain recommended by General Wei lost to Major General Wu recommended by Commander Zhuang, so General Wei was naturally unwilling to come.

General Wei, who was 20 years younger, did not come, and Commander Zhuang was highly respected, and he would not appreciate face.Without the stars shining on the shoulders of the two generals, the ceremony would be dull.The military music is no longer exciting, and the flowers lose their color and fragrance.

The two lieutenant generals delivered speeches on behalf of Commander Zhuang and General Wei respectively, and a retired veteran from the military committee tremblingly awarded them badges of title.

The distribution of duties is very thought-provoking: Rear Admiral Wu Xuelin is the captain of the ninth mothership base; Colonel Zhuang Ye is the chief staff officer; Brigadier General Shen Han is the inspector.

The positions of Shen Han and Zhuang Ye seemed to be reversed.It stands to reason that Shen Han, who has experienced the last war period of the Federation Empire and accumulated military merits during the war period, is more suitable to be a staff officer; while Zhuang Ye, who comes from a famous general family and is naturally superior to everyone, is more suitable to be a supervisor.Not to mention that this is the first time in the history of the Federal Army that a staff officer has a rank below that of an inspector.

The two generals were not here, so Major General Wu had to do his best to socialize. Before the ceremony, he talked with Shen Han and Zhuang Ye, one by one, "Commander Shen is a war hero, and General Wei's favorite student must have outstanding ability." Huzi, who was taught by Commander Zhuang since he was a child, must have unique views on many things."

Complimenting people from both sides at the same time, Shen Han and Zhuang Ye looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.Major General Wu probably felt embarrassed too, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief over and over again.The topic finally developed to, "I am old, and I have not been in the army for a long time. I am doing desk work. I did not expect to be temporarily ordered this time... In the future, I will entrust you young talents with various affairs of the base. Seek common ground while reserving differences, abandon previous suspicions, work together, and stand together through thick and thin..."

Speaking of this, he began to take out his handkerchief again. To be honest, the timing of this ceremony is really unfortunate. He only has one daughter, who is currently giving birth in the hospital.

Major General Wu trotted away, holding on to his hat, his saber clanging against other loose metal.

Zhuang Ye stared blankly at the back of his immediate boss, quite dazed.

It wasn't until a laugh came that he came back to his senses.Zhuang Ye was shorter than Shen Han, and Shen Han was looking down at him slightly.Colonel Zhuang's face was inexplicably hot, and he avoided his sight.While there was no one around, he said softly, "I'm sorry."

"Why?" Shen Han took time off.

"...You clearly stated that you want the position of captain, but the end result is like this." His lips moved slightly.

"You feel guilty about that?"

"No." There was firmness in Zhuang Ye's low and light voice, and he quickly glanced at Shen Han, "I'm sorry, you didn't get the position you wanted, but to fight for...it depends on your own ability."

He objected to his elders thinking that Shen Han "can't" be the captain of the fleet because of different parties, but that didn't mean he would give in to Shen Han.

This young man will look vulnerable and deceptive in unexpected places, but he is also extremely firm in his seeming vulnerability and deception.Shen Han looked at him, and at that moment, his heart was full of appreciation.

After the ceremony, Shen Han went directly to the Northern Military Headquarters building.

Ning Ze's glasses reflected light, and he looked at his dress and saber, "Congratulations." Then there was a brigadier star on the epaulettes, "It's a pity."

Shen Han smiled indifferently, and Ning added, "The general is waiting for you upstairs."

"Officer Shen is here?"

The Shen brothers always used this kind of business-like tone in the military building, but Ning confirmed, "The chief attendant is also upstairs."

Shen Han went upstairs and stopped in front of General Wei's office, his whole body tensed up, his legs standing at attention.

From the outside world, the Shen family brothers are all General Wei's favorite generals.But he has always been very clear that this general will not be harsh on him like he is harsh on Shen Xiao, nor will he pamper him like he is on Shen Xiao.

Shen Han took a deep breath and knocked on the door.The door opened automatically, and Shen Han almost blurted out "Subordinates come to see me".

Inside the door was his brother Shen Xiao, sitting cross-legged on the thick carpet, playing games...

"General Wei just received a secret call." Shen Xiao didn't lift his eyes from the game.

Shen Han immediately relaxed, the front of the office was a living room, and the door leading to the office was closed.He stepped forward and kicked Shen Xiao with his military boots, "Mr. Shen, make room."

Shen Xiao raised his eyes and got angry impatiently, "Is the road so narrow?" Seeing Shen Han's military uniform, he softened, "It's not interesting to be appointed as a brigadier general. One day you will be appointed as a major general, and I will definitely go."

Attendant chief is not a job, but a title.This title is like the chief guard of the emperor of the empire. It means that the commander-in-chief of the army has complete trust in a subordinate, so much trust that he is willing to entrust him with the responsibility of guarding himself and entrusting his life safety to him.

Whether this title can be assumed depends entirely on the wishes of the commander-in-chief. Commander-in-chief Zhuang of the Southern Army once appointed his eldest son as the chief attendant. His eldest son died 11 years ago, and this title has been vacant for 11 years.

Even if he is both a brigadier general, even if he is his elder brother, Shen Han still has to address the commander-in-chief's attendant with respect.

"It is better to count on your major general appointment than to count on my appointment as a major general in the foreseeable future."

Shen Xiao sat on the ground with a half-smile and looked up, looking over Shen Han's shoulder.

Shen Han immediately stopped, turned around and saluted neatly, "Your subordinates come to see you."

A certain emperor of the empire was once recorded in the history books as "not looking like His Majesty", and Wei Mincun didn't look like the famous General of the Federal Guard either.

He was forty years old, and there were fine lines around his eyes, but he didn't look old. He seemed to be loved by God, with sculpted eyebrows and thin lips, and fair complexion. At first glance, he didn't look like a soldier.

Shen Xiao stood up with one hand on the ground, and also saluted, but said directly, "This subordinate will leave."

Wei Mincun's eyes fell on him, showing no emotion, until the figure walked out of the living room, he turned to Shen Han, "Come in."

Shen Han straightened his back, "Yes."

In the office, there is another set of reception sofa and coffee table. On the other side is a bookcase that fills the wall. In front of the bookcase is a large desk and chair.There is a lake in winter outside the window, and there are often water birds on the lake in spring and summer.

There are still some paper documents on Wei Min's desk, and the important content that needs to be signed needs to be preserved in paper version.

Shen Han was left to air for more than ten minutes before the slight sound of flipping through documents stopped.

Wei Mincun's voice came, "You want this position yourself."

It wasn't that he wanted to praise Shen Han, but that Shen Han volunteered to jump out.

Shen Han said, "Yes."

Wei Min put down his pen, and tapped a piece of paper on the table with his slender fingers.Shen Han stepped forward to pick it up, glanced roughly, took a breath, and looked at Wei Mincun.

The General Wei picked up his pen again, "The Ninth Base will not be stable. Since you want to take this seat, no matter what happens, you have to take care of it yourself, and no one will help you."

In the evening, Zhuang Ye walked out of the building, but saw Shen Han waiting outside the door.

"you……"

Shen Han laughed, "According to the usual practice, we will move to the base tomorrow." He suggested, "So today, do you want to visit the famous scenic spots in Xindu?"

Zhuang Ye followed him, and the two got into the sightseeing carriage.The famous cities in the federation more or less retained some of the customs of two centuries ago. The carriages galloped on the carriageway, and the tall brick and stone buildings on both sides stood still against the snow. The setting sun shone, and the buildings were covered with orange light.

Zhuang Ye looked out from the window of the carriage and was stunned.When the new capital was established, it was intentionally built in imitation of ancient times. It was cold and late, and there were few tourists. It seemed like returning to the last century.

"Haven't you visited Xindu well?" Shen Han asked in a timely manner.

Zhuang Ye shook his head, "When I was young, it happened to be during the Federal Empire War. The empire often attacked Xindu by air, and my family sent me to the countryside. I didn't grow up in Xindu."

Shen Han's eyes flickered, but he still smiled, "You are a graduate of the Central Military Academy, so close to Xindu, and you don't often come to Xindu with your classmates and friends to relax?"

Zhuang Ye blushed a little. If he was not very familiar with him, he would not have noticed it at all. He turned to the window and lowered his voice, "I... have only been there once."

Can you hit it just once?Shen Han thought to himself, the expression on his face was still as clear as that of an elder.

Little Swan, Shen Han called him in his heart, he has grown a lot in the past five years.All grown in just one month.He really wants to see how far Little Swan can grow, and whether he can work with him to bring changes to the environment around them.
