The motorized unit's report received a considerable amount of attention. A group of generals who didn't personally participate in the drill of the century raised many questions, and Lieutenant Colonel Qi Rui answered them according to the drill content that had already been carried out.
Perhaps it was because he wanted to completely dispel the pain, Qi Rui's attention was especially focused. Now that he was highly focused, Qi Rui could even feel where his rationality was. It was something that had nothing to do with the physical body. It was simple, calm, and extremely logical, to the extent that it had a feeling of eternity. Meanwhile, the physical body that rationality relied on was so active, so unpredictable, so impulsive, and so easily hurt. The uncertainty of the physical body brought Qi Rui all kinds of excitement and even pain.
No matter how much pain the physical body brought to Qi Rui, there were too many contents of the drill, and it still required the brain in the physical body to store information. There was too much information to remember, and too much information had to be arranged according to the situation at the time. He even had to make decisions according to the situation.
Qi Rui found that he had never been in such a state before. For the first time, rationality was above emotions. Of course, this was because he had made ample preparations. For the first time, the information and information held by those generals that Qi Rui felt were beyond his reach were inferior to Qi Rui's. Qi Rui also found that in the past, it was as if he needed help from the generals, and they always seemed to be able to give Qi Rui more. Right now, the status of both sides had changed greatly. Facing the same new field, the importance of past experience was greatly reduced. Those who had first-hand information were the more advanced representatives.
Then, Qi Rui felt pride. Even if he didn't do it on purpose, when facing a group of people who were inferior to him, the feeling of pride would naturally arise. It was just that Qi Rui, who was a student and a subordinate, didn't have the capital to be proud when facing a group of generals in the past. Once he had the capital, even if he was facing a group of generals, that kind of pride naturally made Qi Rui instinctively want to show his superiority. It was just like how Qi Rui felt countless times when he was competing with others in spear techniques.
"Others think that modesty and prudence are a virtue, but I don't think so. Modesty, prudence, seriousness, responsibility, and various other so-called virtues are only the basic qualities that must be possessed in order to better complete one's work. It's just that some people don't have the capital to be proud. " This was what his father, Vézé, had said. Qi Rui had forgotten when he said it or what he said it to. The only thing he could think of was these words. The reason why he thought of these words was that Qi Rui needed these words to guide his actions.
In any case, if a lieutenant colonel were to act arrogant and conceited in front of a group of generals, then he would be courting death. Qi Rui didn't want to ruin his future. He just wanted to step on his achievements step by step and steadily rise to a position like his father's. On this path, it was not that Qi Rui wanted to be a modest and cautious person, but that this path would not allow an arrogant person to pass. That was all.
The report could be said to be quite successful. When the military academy's principal, Ke Gongyu, led the applause, the generals applauded with satisfaction and encouragement. Qi Rui suddenly realized that these people weren't actually applauding for Qi Rui, but were satisfied with the motorized infantry unit's progress. So, after the applause paused for a moment, Qi Rui said calmly, "Thank you all for your support and concern for the motorized infantry unit's performance. I sincerely hope that you all can give us more support and care for our performance."
If this was in the past, Qi Rui would feel that his words were too pretentious, but now he didn't think so. Without the approval of the chief, could Qi Rui ask for a single cent from the military finance department? Don't even think about it! Of course, Qi Rui laughed at these people in his heart, hoping to use the motorized infantry unit's success to achieve their dreams, accumulate merits, and continue to be promoted. While laughing at others, wasn't Qi Rui doing the same thing himself? From a purely personal point of view, Qi Rui might be even more despicable than the others. The others had to rely on themselves, but Qi Rui could still get the support of his father, Vézé. As the person involved, Qi Rui knew how much of the motorized infantry unit's concept was extracted from his father, Vézé.
Without talking about personal morality, then the motorized infantry unit's progress could only be discussed. Even a genius like Vézé could only be promoted after countless soldiers began to follow Vézé. Then, the military's progress changed the fate of these people, bringing them from one victory to another. No matter what, one person could not promote the progress of society. From this point of view, Qi Rui must have respect for this system, and he must have respect from the bottom of his heart!
This kind of respect from the bottom of his heart was exchanged with enough goodwill. The generals looked at each other, and then someone smiled and said, "We didn't participate in this performance because we wanted to give you young people a chance. It's not right not to give us any credit. It's not right to give us any credit either. I really want to be 20 years younger. "
Qi Rui knew that this was not something he could interrupt, so he stood at attention and did not say a word.
Ke Gongyu smiled and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Look, you scared the young people so much that they don't dare to say anything. Besides, when you went to report to the commander-in-chief, you ran faster than anyone else. "
Of course, the old guys could joke like this. Amidst the laughter, Ke Gongyu said to Qi Rui, "You can leave."
Qi Rui saluted and obediently left the conference room. At the door, Ke Gongyu's secretary stopped Qi Rui and said, "Go to Principal Ke's office and wait for him. You can report to Principal Ke about the specific situation."
Ke Gongyu's office was in another building. The military academy's campus was very green. The trees and lawns were lush, and there were even signs on some tall trees. They were trees personally planted by the seniors of the Liberation Army. After almost 20 years, they had all grown very tall. On the wide and flat asphalt road, a group of young military academy students in well-ironed uniforms passed by in groups. The standard gait of a soldier, his energetic appearance and demeanor all made Qi Rui involuntarily recall the four years he had spent in this military academy.
Qi Rui was born on January 1, 1862. He was already 26 years old this year. In a few months, he would be 27 years old. Looking at these military academy students who did not even have a rank badge, Qi Rui could not help but think of his past. He had entered the military academy 10 years ago as a military academy student. When he was in school, everyone had also imagined what they would be like 10 years later. At that time, the students felt that according to the rules, if they did not make any mistakes, they would graduate from the military academy in four years and have six years of work experience. At that time, everyone would be a captain and fighting for the rank of major. They also thought about where the Min dynasty was fighting and what kind of war they would face. What kind of achievements would they make.
The proportion of these discussions was not small. The discussion that was closer to reality was the upcoming exam. What would be tested? When they really couldn't stand it, how to understand the questions and how to help a little during the exam. This was also a very important lesson. There were also more delightful contents than this kind of discussion. For example, the supply of pork ribs in the canteen was not enough. It was either too oily or too salty. There was also a girl in the girls' class who was super good-looking. It was a very important part of the daily entertainment activities. There was also someone who wrote a letter to a good female classmate in junior high school or high school. It was really a good carefree time.
After graduation, he served in the South Sea Military Region and participated in the Min dynasty's attack on the Indian Ocean. He fought with the enemy in Ceylon. He served in North America and built railways. He also went to Japan twice to observe the war. Fighting, reading, learning, and working. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he had done a lot, but time passed by him like a white steed. Even if he looked back, he could not grasp the slightest bit of the past.
Thinking of this, Qi Rui's rationality also slowly fell asleep, and the sensibility from the body gradually took over most of his thinking. That figure appeared in Qi Rui's mind again. In fact, Qi Rui did not have so much time to spend on personal things, and the two did not see each other many times. Every time he went out to play with her, whether it was eating, watching the scenery, or simply walking on the road. There was no need to do anything special. As long as the two of them were together, it could make Qi Rui have a kind of leisurely feeling that it did not matter to the end of the world.
This was a feeling that could only be felt when he was with her. The mood was so relaxed that he did not want to think about anything. He was not willing to think about anything. Whether it was words or actions, they seemed so redundant when they were together. However, this feeling of relaxation was always short-lived. Whether it was waiting for her to appear at the appointed time or watching her leave. It made Qi Rui feel inexplicably heavy.
When Qi Rui finally understood that he probably fell in love with her, it seemed that everything was too late. But even though he had experienced a lot of pain, Qi Rui did not have the slightest regret for this kind of feeling. Even if there was no way to contact her again, when the memories occasionally came to his mind, that warm feeling would still occupy Qi Rui's heart and soul, even dispelling all the unhappiness in his heart.
Sadness and pain did not occupy Qi Rui's heart again. Although he still had the urge to cry, Qi Rui resisted it this time. At this moment, Qi Rui even felt a kind of courage. He wanted to rush out of the military academy now without care, find her at all costs, and tell her how he felt with his own mouth. He did not want to be like last time, almost rambling incoherently about "I like you".
But in this instant when his emotions were full, rationality inexplicably leapt out again. That calm voice whispered in his mind. Falling in love with her was his own business, why let himself be hurt again! Wasn't it better to preserve that kind of warmth? If even this last beautiful memory was shattered, it would not be a good thing for anyone. Even if he let her know his feelings completely, wouldn't it be a kind of trouble for her? Since he had obtained the feeling of peace from the person he loved, what justifiable reason was there to throw troubles and burdens on the person he loved?
Just when rationality gradually prevailed, Qi Rui also walked outside the office of Principal Ke Gongyu. The military academy was very disciplined, so there were also many very humane decorations. For example, there was a polished bench outside the door. Qi Rui sat straight on the chair. The Qi Rui surrounded by the feeling of love gradually fell asleep, and the officer Qi Rui waited seriously for the call of his boss.
It took Ke Gongyu more than half an hour to return to the office. Looking at Qi Rui who stood up, he waved his hand to let Qi Rui sit down first. Then he brought the other two generals into the office. After waiting for more than half an hour, the secretary came out and let Qi Rui in.
The three generals sat in the office. After Qi Rui saluted, he heard Ke Gongyu say, "The situation in North America is not particularly stable now. Therefore, the school has decided to conduct an assessment for you comrades who participate in the intermediate training course of motorized drill. If you can pass the exam, you will first return to Xinxiang Military Academy in North America to participate in the establishment of a new course. "
Qi Rui was shocked. This order was too sudden. With Qi Rui's personality, since he participated in the exam, he must pass it. This was not just a matter of face. Qi Rui had not been stopped by the exam so far. But he felt a little anxious. If he went to North America again this time, the chance of him seeing her again would be very small. The formation of the motorized infantry had just begun. At the moment, it was just a regiment gathered together to participate in the drill. If he wanted to come up with an effective set of tactics, it would take a few years.
"Take the exam in five working days. The exam results will be announced in about 15 working days. Once you pass, immediately set off for North America. This is the document. When you go back, bring it with you to inform everyone, "Ke Gongyu said as he handed a signed document to Qi Rui.
As soon as Qi Rui took the document, Ke Gongyu's secretary brought a signature book and instructed Qi Rui to sign the document.
After signing, Qi Rui looked at Ke Gongyu. Ke Gongyu said, "Quickly go back and inform everyone. This matter can't be delayed. "
After a night of bumping in the car, Qi Rui finally arrived at the drill base in the early morning. Just in time for breakfast, Qi Rui gathered the students of the intermediate class and read the order to them. The students were surprised and happy. They thought that they would have to work here for another two months. By then, it would naturally be time for the assessment. With everyone's work experience, it was almost certain that they would pass this assessment.
"How difficult is this exam?" Qian Duoduo felt that something was wrong. As the saying goes, if the assessment was in two months, it would be based on everyone's contribution to the construction of the motorized infantry. This kind of contribution was based on their daily performance. He wasn't afraid of the assessment at all. In fact, all the members of the intermediate class were not afraid of the assessment.
The problem was that it was difficult to determine the factors involved in the assessment. What was the content of the assessment? What kind of thesis? Other than the navy, the group of people participating in the motorized infantry drill included all kinds of soldiers. There were infantry, cavalry, railway, logistics, and even military mathematics. In the face of such a group of military officers, how could a test be fair?
"Stop the drill? Everyone focus on the exam? "Hu Xingzhi also had an opinion. Qi Rui glanced at Hu Xingzhi and could roughly understand what he was thinking. Everyone had their strengths and weaknesses. Among the group, Hu Xingzhi might be considered as someone who did not contribute much. It wasn't easy to expect him to come up with very insightful ideas, but the executive committee's results showed that Hu Xingzhi did a good job. Therefore, Hu Xingzhi wanted to accumulate more experience instead of taking the exam immediately.
But it was useless for the group of majors and lieutenant-colonels. The lieutenant general had spoken, so they had no other choice but to obey.
Under the leadership of the party committee, the deputy secretary of the party committee, Qi Rui, who wrote the thesis on motorized warfare, was elected as the study committee member. He led the group of intermediate class students to summarize and review.
The characteristic of the Min dynasty's exam was the "One Paper". The great Military Governor Vaize clearly said that the "One Paper" exam system had many problems, but the "One Paper" exam was the fairest known model. At least for the time being, no one could find a fairer selection model.
Before the exam at eight o 'clock in the morning, Qi Rui took the lead to check whether all the examinees had brought their stationery and whether they could be used normally. The other spare stationery was placed on the invigilator's desk. If anyone had any problems during the exam, they could change it. After the preparation was done, the intermediate class students nervously waited for the exam to begin.
A stack of exam papers was placed on the student's desk at the entrance. Just when everyone felt that placing the exam papers like this would inevitably cause suspicion, the orderlies filed in with thick exam papers. This wasn't just one f * cking exam paper. There was a stack of about 100 pages of exam papers on everyone's desk.
While the students were dumbfounded, Ma Xiaoming laughed out loud. "Are we supposed to write until the end of time?"
No one felt that this statement was too abrupt. It would be difficult to copy with so many exam papers. The atmosphere in the exam room immediately became inexplicably relaxed.
"Everyone has stayed up all night, so from now on, you will have 16 hours to answer your exam papers. Within 16 hours, those who think they can handle it can answer your exam papers. If you feel that you can't handle it anymore, you can hand in your exam papers whenever you want. "The invigilator didn't seem to be under much pressure.
"What about going to the toilet and eating?" Ma Xiaoming asked.
The invigilator replied with a smile, "There will be people following you when you go to the toilet. You can defecate and urinate at will. After eating, you will be given field rations. If there are no more questions, you can start answering now. "
