"Fu Fu!" The company commander's messenger appeared at the door of the dormitory, "The company commander asked you to go!"
Fu Fu immediately put down the gun he was wiping, put away the maintenance equipment and guns, and jogged all the way to the company headquarters.
Fu Fu's 3rd Company of the 1st Infantry Battalion had just returned to Ma Niao Base Camp from the Qiongshan front line. After the Chengmai battle, the 1st Battalion had been conducting "maintaining pressure" operations on the Qiongshan front line, besieging Haikou and Qiongshan.
There are no large-scale armed conflicts in this type of *** operations. Apart from the occasional capture of prisoners and shelling into the city, there are basically no operations. The main task of the 1st Battalion is to cooperate with the civil affairs department in "going to the countryside" and
"Gathering villages into villages" carried out large-scale public security operations in the local area to eliminate broken soldiers and bandits, and trained soldiers from the county squadron locally.
After several months of frequent security battles, the 1st Battalion was transferred out of Qiongshan and returned to Lingao for rest and recuperation. Soldiers and officers took leave in batches.
"Report! Private Fu Fu has been ordered to report for duty!" He saluted at the door and said loudly.
The company commander was the only one in the company commander's office. His company commander was Lin Fu. Lin Fu was wearing a new uniform with a small open collar and a full set of military uniforms. He was sitting behind his desk and writing hard.
What report? On the wall behind him is an army flag.
Lin Fu nodded: "Are you a local?"
"Yes, sir! I'm from Meiyang Village——"
"You will be on vacation for one week from now on." Lin Fu picked up an envelope and handed it to him, "It will start at 12 noon today. This is your vacation certificate."
"Thank you, sir!" Fu Fu was very happy when he heard that he could go home and grinned. Of course, Fu Fuji and his wife were not his family at all - they were just the heads of the family who exploited their cheap labor.
, but the children of the Fu family, whether they are domesticated boys or Fu Buer's biological children, have very deep feelings for each other: they eat, live, work together, and are beaten together - Fu Buer's wife is very fond of each other.
Her own children are no better than domesticated boys. To her, both are just food and work material.
"You don't need to thank me, this is an order from the General Military Administration." Lin Fu said, "Dress up more energetically during your vacation! Show your dignity as a soldier!"
"Yes, sir!"
Fu Fu came out of the company headquarters. He had not been back to Meiyang Village since he was sent out by his family owner to be a soldier of the "Security Corps" more than a year ago. He returned to his dormitory and packed up all his weapons and personal equipment.
After going through the handover procedures, he put on a brand-new new version of the military uniform. Of course, soldiers are not allowed to carry weapons during family visits, but in order to show the soldiers' sense of honor, the Military Affairs General Court allows army and navy soldiers with the rank of first class and above to do so.
The Army bayonet and Navy dagger are carried as a matter of military honor when not on duty.
Fu Fu hung up the bayonet and looked at his image in front of the plastic surgery mirror in the dormitory: he was very majestic. Especially when the bayonet was hung up, it looked a bit like the daggers worn by sergeants - Fu Fu had been envious of the daggers worn by sergeants for a long time.
, he heard that the company commander had recommended him when selecting the sergeant training team this time. He judged his seniority and performance, and it was his turn to be in this sergeant training team.
It would be great if he could become a sergeant before taking leave. Fu Fu thought with regret that if he appeared majestically at the door of Fu Fuji's house wearing a corporal's epaulettes and a dagger with a red tassel,
What kind of look would Fu Yijin look at him? What kind of expression would Fu Fu'er's wife have? Fu Fu has been secretly in love with this "young lady" for a long time, but in the past he was afraid of the housekeeper's wife. Did he have treacherous intentions?
Brave. This time when I returned to my hometown, I was brave enough to decide to have a serious discussion with the head of the family on this issue.
He turned sideways to look at his armed belt, and then pulled down the integrated leggings to see if it was clean and in compliance with the dress code in the "Military Manual". Fu Fu also hoped that one day he could change into an officer's leather armed belt.
and boots. It is said that the company commander was just a big-headed soldier back then. When Fu Fulai joined the army, the company commander was just a corporal squad leader.
Fu Fu has no doubt that he will one day become an officer, although he secretly cried several times when he was sent to serve as a soldier more than a year ago - the hardship and fatigue of being a soldier are not included, and he might die at some point.
He had the idea of becoming a deserter before he even joined the army. Looking back now, Fu Fu felt that his two years in the army were like being reincarnated as a human being.
Fu Fu put a medal on himself, and after leaving the dormitory, he went straight to the Military Service Club in the camp. The Military Service Club is actually run by a cooperative. In addition to selling goods, it also runs a tavern and handles savings and postal services.
Fu Fu basically didn't spend much of his military pay - like most soldiers, he was very frugal and deposited every cent of his military pay in the account of the Military Service Society. Many local soldiers with families would send their military pay home to subsidize it.
Household use - no remittance fees.
Of course Fu Fu would not send his military pay to Fu Buyer. He also heard that Fu Buyer had gone to the team to ask for his military pay but was rejected by the chiefs, and he was secretly happy - he would rather work for the Australians than die for the Australians.
He was willing to work harder for Fu Buer. He would not be happy if he would be scolded by the wife of the housekeeper if he took more than one bite of pickles.
However, he wanted to buy some gifts for his brothers and sisters when he went back this time. Especially Fu Yijin. He planned to buy her a compact compact with a mirror. Unfortunately, there was no such thing in the Military Service Club - almost all of them were sold here.
It’s food and daily necessities.
Fu Fu first bought some food at the Military Service Co., Ltd. The prices here were lower than outside to show the discount to the soldiers. Fu Fu knew that Fu Buer's family did not eat meat all year round, and brown rice with pickled fish sauce was considered a reward for the busy work. So he bought it specially.
I bought a lot of dried fish, fish slabs, kelp and seaweed and other foods, and also bought two jars of fish sauce and two jars of chili sauce. The latter is the latest product and is very popular with the soldiers.
I also bought a towel and a rattan helmet-type hat for each person, as well as the latest military bamboo kettle. The rattan helmet-type hats are worn by the army and navy during daily training and work, which are both ventilated and sun-shading. In such conditions
The belt area is very practical. Not only soldiers welcomed it, but also the common people liked it very much once it was launched. As for the military bamboo kettle, there is a special rattan protective cover on the outside and a strap that can be adjusted in length, so it can be easily hung on the belt or carried on the body.
On the shoulder, it is both practical and fashionable, and is very popular among young people. At first, it was only used by soldiers and laborers, but gradually people began to use it in various communes. The supply of kettles even exceeded demand. So much so that cooperatives in various communes sold them
There will always be a limited supply.
For other gifts, I had to go to Dongmen City to buy them.
Lin Fu sent Fu Fu away and filled out a leave certificate for himself - as an officer, he also got leave. Lin Fu's home is in Ma Niao's Yanchang Village. It can be said that it is close at hand, and he can fully use the normal
went home for a visit during the holiday. But since returning to Ma Niao, he has been caught up in continuous summary meetings, writing reports, conducting training and exercises, and has never even had a holiday. This time he can take a long vacation, and of course he can't miss it.
Chance.
Lin Fu’s family members are also salt people. Since Chuanchuan Group established the Monopoly Bureau, the villagers of Yanchang Village have been integrated into the state-owned salt factory under the Monopoly Bureau. Lin Fu’s family members have all become workers in the salt factory. Lin Fu
In the letter from home, I learned that my family is very well off now, and Ma Niao Commune, where Yanchang Village is located, is currently engaged in "new rural construction". I hope that he can take part of the military salary he saved in the army back to use as money to buy a new house.
Lin Fu certainly agrees that his family wants to live in a new house - the houses in Yanchang Village are all made of rough stones from the seaside. Because there is no suitable adhesive, and to prevent damage from typhoons, the houses are built very low.
The house was dark, damp and gloomy all year round. He had always lived in a house with shade in the past and didn't think much of it. Since joining the army, he saw the houses Australians lived in and got used to the tall and cheerful dormitories in the military camp.
Naturally, we would sneer at building a stone house that is both uncomfortable and unhygienic.
Lin Fu decided to go back this time and bring all his savings to see what this "new house" looked like and how big it would be. I heard that the price of the house was quite high, so I had to think about it carefully.
After Fu Fu left Ma Niao Base, he could now choose to go to the port to catch a smooth sailing boat - he took a salt boat to Bopu every day. After saying hello to people on the dock, he could sit on the salt bag and take a slow boat ride.
Fu felt that taking a boat was too slow and that he had to walk several kilometers to the pier. It would be faster to take a public oxcart near Ma Niao Base.
Taking advantage of the east wind that prepared for the road construction in the previous stage, Lingao's public transportation system has been extended to some extent. The addition of a large number of military prisoners of war and steam rollers has made the road construction project progress very quickly. At present, the highway from Chengmai to Lingao has been fully extended.
It is connected and extending towards Qiongshan.
The newly established public transportation company has extended public ox-carts to Majiao. An ox-cart transfer station has been set up at the entrance of Majiao base.
Fu Fu came to the large-span bamboo shed platform of the ox-cart transfer station. There were wooden signs with the train number, time and stops along the way. Currently, there are only two shuttle buses at Ma Niao Transfer Station, one is Ma Niao-Bo Pu, and the other is M Niao-Bo Pu.
The journey was all the way to Yanchang Village. The arrival and departure time of each train was clearly written. Many local villagers of Ma Niao had gathered on the platform, carrying baskets and burdens, preparing to go to Bopu.
Or hundreds of people. Some just plan to go to the villages along the way. With the convenient transportation, the frequency of villagers' travel has greatly increased, and many villagers' enthusiasm for selling products has also increased, stimulating the circulation of materials.
