Huo Tingzhou gave her a meaningful look. "Well, and then?"
Seeing how calm he was, Jiang Si became a little anxious.
She shook his neck. "Mom said you got a promotion!"
No, it's not just a promotion!
Jiang Si couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you know what position you've been promoted to?"
Huo Tingzhou looked at his cheeks, which were flushed with excitement, and shook his head cooperatively.
"Mom didn't tell me; she probably wanted you to tell me yourself."
He paused, then asked, "What position have you been promoted to?"
Jiang Si blinked, took a deep breath, and then said, "Deputy Chief of Staff of the Air Force Command of the Beijing Military Region!"
Don't underestimate him just because he's only a deputy chief of staff; he's a full-fledged deputy corps-level officer!
In other words, he jumped from the rank of regimental commander to deputy division commander and division commander, which is equivalent to a promotion of three ranks!
Just thinking about it made Jiang Si incredibly excited.
When she looked up, Huo Tingzhou still had the same indifferent expression as before, making Jiang Si wonder if he hadn't heard her clearly.
"Huo Tingzhou! You got promoted! Three levels in a row!" Jiang Si couldn't help but reach out and cup his face in her hands. "Why don't you have any reaction at all?"
Huo Tingzhou grasped her mischievous fingers and looked at her eyes crinkling with joy.
"Are you happy?" he asked in a low voice, his tone more serious than ever before.
"Of course I'm happy that my man is so amazing!" Jiang Si wanted to roll her eyes at him.
"Whatever makes you happy." Huo Tingzhou couldn't help but kiss the corner of her curved lips because of her words "my man."
Mrs. Huo was right about one thing: whether he was promoted or not, or what position he was promoted to, was just a change of job for him, and he would continue to serve the cause he loved.
But that's what my wife wants.
His wife was proud and happy for him.
He will definitely do his best!
[Regarding the male protagonist's promotion, let me briefly explain: promotions were indeed quite fast in the 1970s, and some people were promoted several ranks in a row.]
The article doesn't specify who it is, but interested readers can look it up themselves.
One of them was an airborne platoon leader in 1968, was promoted to regimental commander in November 1974, and then successfully rose to deputy army commander in June 1976.
The second person was promoted directly from deputy regimental commander to deputy army commander in 1975, skipping six ranks at once. So, it's possible that the protagonist in the story also experienced such a rapid promotion.
