His mother was naturally overjoyed that her eldest son had returned home for a vacation. Not only was he provided with good food and drinks all day long, but he would also often invite a few relatives and friends to stay at home or go out for small gatherings.
The main reason for doing this was that when Qu Sen finished his vacation and returned to the army, he would become a real officer.
His parents were happy, and his relatives and friends congratulated him with envy. Qu Sen could only put on a face that was sometimes happy and sometimes shy to cooperate with them. The depression in his heart could only be vented by crazily running laps around the neighborhood every morning.
Just like that, half a month passed. Seeing that the annual start of school was approaching, Qu Sen's parents began to receive invitations to the graduation banquet one after another.
The invitations were from parents of children who had just entered high school and parents of prospective college students. Qu Sen's attitude towards these kinds of banquets was to avoid them as much as possible. However, there were many occasions where he couldn't avoid them and could only attend with a smile.
Then, he would be treated as a role model and listen to all kinds of compliments.
Just as Qu Sen was about to lose his patience with these days and was even preparing to return to the army early to report, Gao Sheng and Gao Yusheng were saved. The siblings saved him.
Although Gao Sheng's mental state seemed to be good, in fact, because of the excessive pressure from work, he had a severe nervous breakdown.
After all, he was his own brother. Gao Yusheng saw all of this and was also very anxious. Taking advantage of the fact that the Criminal Police Unit was not under much pressure in August, he applied for a vacation for Gao Sheng and personally went to the Municipal Bureau's Big Brother to explain the situation.
Big Brother then realized that ever since Gao Sheng became the captain of the Criminal Police Unit, it had been more than three years, but it seemed that he hadn't taken a single annual vacation. Therefore, he waved his pen and directly gave him ten days of vacation.
He also used an order to inform Gao Sheng that he must take a vacation! And during the ten days of vacation, he was not allowed to come into contact with anything related to the case.
After Gao Sheng was "swept" out of the Criminal Police Unit, he went home and slept for three days. At first, his family thought that he was exhausted and should have a good rest. Therefore, other than calling him during meals, they didn't disturb him at all.
However, on the 4th day, Gao Sheng's parents became a bit worried when they found that their son was still in the same condition. He thought that if he continued to sleep like this, he would become stupid.
So, let's make it higher? He had to think of something quickly.
There were many ways to relax during the holidays. Sleeping was one of them. Among the remaining activities, traveling was undoubtedly the best choice. However, Gao Sheng wasn't interested in famous mountains and rivers. Huacheng was a big city, so there was no need for him to go to other high-rise buildings.
When she went shopping with Feng Yanhui that night, she found out that Qu Sen was actually on vacation at home. He had an idea. First, she called Qu Sen. After learning that he still had more than ten days of vacation, she went to the ticket agency near her home the next day.
When he was about to pay, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't taken annual leave for two years. Therefore, he stood in the sales agency and called Director Niu.
When Director Niu heard this, he was impressed. She wanted to accompany her brother, who had mild depression, on a trip. Naturally, she approved the leave application without hesitation. Then, she directly paid for two economy class tickets and went home with the tickets.
When she got home, she pulled Gao Sheng out of bed and shook him a little to wake him up. Then, she informed him, "Hurry up and pack your things. The flight is at 12: 06 tonight."
Gao Sheng sat on the bed for a few seconds before he came back to his senses. He asked with a poker face, "Where are you going?"
"Going to Qu Sen's place to play for two days." As she spoke, she had already entered her room.
"Didn't he go back to the army?" Gao Sheng asked at the top of his voice.
"He's on vacation at home. He'll report back on the 1st of September." Then, there was the sound of the suitcase being dragged out from under the bed.
"You called him?"
"Nonsense!"

Qu Sen's home was a tourist city. It was surrounded by mountains, seas, and hot springs. Considering that Gao Sheng and his sister would come to play for five or six days, Qu Sen simply rented a car.
They arrived at the airport before five o 'clock in the morning. When the sun had completely risen, he took the siblings home.
Qu Sen's parents were very enthusiastic about their son's friends coming to play. Especially when they heard Gao Sheng's Northeastern accent, they simply couldn't help laughing.
Gao Sheng and Gao Na? Felt that it was inconvenient to stay at Qu Sen's house, so they wanted to stay at a hotel. His mother directly sent Gao Na? She asked her to stay at home and let the two boys, Qu Sen and Gao Sheng, go to a hotel to get a room.
In the next few days, Qu Sen drove and accompanied Gao Sheng and Gao Na. They wandered around the remote world, taking the two to see the sea and mountains in the north. They also experienced the nightlife in the north, where meat skewers and seafood barbecued.
Gao Sheng and his sister had a lot of fun. Qu Sen's depression also dissipated a lot.
Qu Sen had a lot of fun, but Han Zhenjiang was very depressed.
The list of experimental military drones was announced in early July. As expected, the 22nd Army's 5th Division wasn't on the list. However, this didn't affect Han Zhenjiang's plan.
He had already expected that they wouldn't be selected. He had even prepared a sum of money in the division. He had planned to use his own money to buy 20 to 50 drones with various functions for experimental and tactical research.
Because he had already communicated with the military drone manufacturer beforehand, he had even chosen a few test models. Therefore, when the list was announced, Han Zhenjiang sent the chief of staff to the manufacturer with a few people to do the final confirmation.
Originally, he wanted Qu Sen to go as well. However, at the time, Qu Sen was preparing for his graduation thesis defense, so Han Zhenjiang didn't want to bother him. By the time Qu Sen received his graduation certificate and degree certificate, the chief of staff had already chosen three models.
However, military drones were only in trial production, so the production rate wasn't high. The first few batches would definitely be supplied to the experimental troops first. Therefore, the 5th Division's needs could only be pushed back.
It was also because he considered that the manufacturer would only be able to supply the drones at the end of September that Han Zhenjiang generously gave Qu Sen a month off. He thought about letting the kid go home and rest for two days. After reporting in September, there would still be a month of preparation time. Nothing would be delayed.
Everything was planned well, but accidents always happened. On August 23rd, the military suddenly issued an order to prohibit the divisions under them from using military funds to buy experimental military equipment without approval.
Although the instructions used the term "experimental military equipment", the direction was actually very obvious. It was aimed at military small drones.
Han Zhenjiang immediately panicked when he saw the order. He got in his car and rushed to the military district.
At first, his thoughts were very simple. He thought that if the order was "prohibited without approval," then he would just ask the leader for approval.
However, when he arrived at the military district, before he could even ask the leader for a response, he was so angry that his nose was almost crooked.
Following behind him were the other four division commanders of his brother's troops.
Of course, this was nothing. Who didn't have something to report to the leader? However, each of them was holding an application to buy a small military drone. What was going on?
With a stern face, Han Zhenjiang asked his four colleagues. Only then did he know that the 5th Division wasn't the only one who wanted to buy a small military drone to explore its tactical application.
Now, he only saw four of them. He didn't see any of them before he sent them away. Moreover, there might be others who didn't arrive with the application.
When Han Zhenjiang saw the situation, he knew that things were going to get worse.
As expected, the moment the leader of the military district showed up, he threw a tantrum. Han Zhenjiang and the others didn't even have a chance to speak before they were chased out.
The troops below actively introduced new equipment and took the initiative to develop new tactics and tactics. This was originally a good thing. However, the bad thing was that the competitiveness between the troops was too strong.
Han Zhenjiang had been preparing to buy a drone for a long time, so he didn't pay much attention to keeping it a secret. When the regiments below were fighting to be the first batch to try out the drones, the leaders of the other divisions also "inquired" about the situation.
They thought about it and said, "No, we're all the same. How can you have one and I don't? That's not good. If you really get your way, you'll be suppressing us in the future! "
In the beginning, the leaders of the various divisions were worried that the price of a small military drone was too high and that they couldn't afford it.
Later, they found out that a small military drone wasn't too expensive. Other than some functional models that were slightly more expensive, a few normal models could be saved as long as the division didn't change a few sets of tables and chairs and cut down on office expenses.
Therefore, all of them had the same thought as if by prior agreement.
The movements of the troops below were quickly grasped by the military region, and the leaders quickly held a small meeting regarding this situation.
The standing committee members at the meeting all agreed that this trend couldn't be allowed to continue!
That was because there were a few units below that were ambitious and wanted to be the first to master the latest experimental equipment out of their own pockets. As long as the cost wasn't too high, it was still acceptable.
If all of them were doing this, then why would the higher-ups arrange for experimental equipment? They might as well just announce the equipment's parameters and pay for it if they were interested.
Moreover, although the military funds were allocated to the various units, there was a plan for how they would be used. This time, it didn't cost much to buy a drone. They could save a little and deduct some expenses.
However, once they tasted the benefits, what about the next time?
What if they were interested in more advanced equipment next time? If the higher-ups didn't give out airplanes and cannons, would the subordinates have to save money and pay for it themselves?
Wouldn't that be a mess?
Therefore, after some discussion, the military region made a decision to completely nip this little bud of liberalism in the bud!
It didn't matter who came first, and it didn't matter if their intentions were good or bad. Let's just cut them off in one fell swoop. Don't mess around with me!
After knowing that things couldn't be done, Han Zhenjiang was depressed. He didn't give up and privately looked for the higher-ups a few more times. However, the military region had already made a decision about the small military drone, and it couldn't be changed.
In the end, Han Zhenjiang could only ask the chief of staff to make another trip to the drone manufacturer, apologize to the factory leader, and ask for the deposit back.
While Han Zhenjiang had nowhere to vent his anger, Yue Jianjun was already very busy.
The reason he was busy was that his troops had received a defense change order. They were currently stationed in the inland areas and radiating several provinces, and were now transferred to Caiyun Province and Jing City in the southwest region of the country.
The reason for the change was very simple. The country had spent a lot of manpower, material, and financial resources to create a modern synthetic combat division.
It wasn't for show, nor was it used to play the role of imaginary enemies for the conventional forces to use as a whetstone for confrontation exercises.
What was the army for?
