Chapter 577 Daily Dinner
The mission was successfully completed. After returning to the base, I just made it in time for the end-of-month dinner.
They were greeted by a crowd of envious gazes.
Liu Yueban and Allen's eyes almost turned red when they saw them, especially Lin Fancheng who was taking the lead in showing off, which made them hate him so much that their teeth were itching.
Silver Wing Medal, I heard that each of them will get one, and it will be awarded personally by Wolf's Minister of Defense, Lieutenant General Valery.
Liu Yue kept nagging and accusing Yun Mo of not taking him with her.
Yun Mo was really annoyed by his nagging: "Isn't it just an awards ceremony? Is it that serious?"
Liu Yueban raised his voice: "As for that!"
"I see you haven't brought your brain back with you yet. Do you understand the weight of this medal? Do you understand what it means?"
"Let's not talk about anything else. He's the Minister of Defense! Lieutenant General! Honor..." The more he spoke, the sadder he became. He almost cried.
Yun Mo had no expression on her face: "What happened to the Lieutenant General?"
Liu Yueban nearly choked. Did she, after watching Major General Lian and Colonel Nie for so long, think promotion was an easy path? Could anyone achieve great things at a young age? Those two were just exceptions, right?
Alan was also very upset. He crossed his arms over his chest, looked downcast, and leaned against the pillar next to him, explaining it to her in a very unhappy manner.
"According to the current military rank promotion system in the Federation, graduates of your school generally start as lieutenants. You're special, and your rank is major..."
His voice was a little gritted. Invisible pretense was the most deadly, especially when it came with the Silver Wings Medal. It was simply disgusting. He could have gone along too.
In peacetime, especially in a place like Wolfe, military ranks are basically earned over time.
Not to mention anything else, just the level of Lieutenant to Colonel, each level of promotion takes four years. In other words, if there are no accidents, it will take Liu Yueban four years to be promoted from Lieutenant to Captain, and another four years from Captain to Major.
This is why Xu Haidi is still only a colonel at his age.
If war breaks out, the promotion period will be shortened based on needs, and early promotion will also be considered based on merit.
And what they received was the Silver Wing Medal, which is a medal second only to the Medal of Honor and the Wartime Medal, and will definitely greatly increase the speed of promotion.
"Tsk," Yun Mo sighed, "So, I've already saved eight years compared to the average person, and will I save even less time in the future?"
Liu Yueban felt a sharp pain in his chest. Damn it, can't you just stop provoking him?
Hong Ning threw over a golden fruit.
Alan reached out to take it, took a bite with a blank expression, and it was sour. He felt as if a whole lemon tree had grown in his heart. Alan turned around and made a whimpering gesture, pounding the tree, and Yunmo couldn't help but chuckle.
Lin Fancheng patted his shoulder comfortingly: "How is it? Do you think chatting with Mr. Yun can always provide you with a different interpretation of life?"
Allen: "Yes, I knew she would irritate me, but I still wanted to talk to her."
Lin Fancheng looked at Yun Mo's back and said, "Do you have a feeling?"
Alan: "What does it feel like?"
Lin Fancheng touched his chin: "What she said always makes you want to stop, but also has an indescribable shit feeling."
"Bah," Alan laughed angrily and threw the fruit core at his head.
A team dinner is like a day off.
They spread tablecloths and cutlery directly on the grass of the training ground and sat on the ground to celebrate.
Originally, each company was separate, but many recruits had either participated in exercises with Yun Mo or had been to Gu Gan Star with her. With a single call, more than 500 people came and gathered together.
The dishes were all prepared by robots, all looking the same, but the wine bottles were full. Luo Mu didn't stop them, and even prepared to join in the fun with a bottle in hand.
Ever since Xiao Feng lost, the plan to separate the new recruits had been halted, and everyone gathered together and shouted.
Huo Chuan was very excited and rolled up his sleeves to help in the kitchen and make them some barbecue.
The "brain wave amplifier" was valued by the military, and the source code of the test version was quickly released. Businessmen smelled huge profits.
This is a tool that can amplify mental power and a magical artifact that can greatly improve the synchronization rate of mechas. It can almost lead an era.
The good-for-nothing third son of the Huo family has long since gotten rid of the label of a playboy, and as a result, Huo Zhehan has been in high spirits recently, entertaining guests every day.
There are also competitors who are trying to find out the technology route openly or secretly, especially Rockford Mobil, where Xiaomi is located.
However, to no avail. Star-Carrier said that their technology was purchased from the "source code". The "source code" was opened by an unknown hacker in some corner of the star field, and no one could find it.
But Star-Carrier acted early and registered the patent after buying out the technology. Now it is difficult for them to get a share of the pie.
However, no one knew that the "source code" came from Xiao Nan.
Huo Chuan was so proud that he almost walked sideways with his tail held high.
"Come, come, look at the meat I cut. It's neat, chewy, fat and lean. It will definitely be roasted to perfection." Huo Chuan rolled up his sleeves halfway, revealing his wheat-colored skin, and came out holding a basin.
Lin Fancheng came over to take a look and said, "Mr. Huo, this isn't meat, this is being torn apart by five horses. Damn, there are big pieces, small pieces, and you'll never find two identical pieces of meat."
Liu Yueban finally finished comforting himself and strolled over: "Tsk tsk tsk, you really are out of touch with the world. This is meat? How do you roast it? I'd better teach you the knife skills."
Huo Chuan snatched the basin away and said, "Get lost! That's it! I'm happy, I like it, I'm happy, I'm satisfied!"
"Who's so loud? You've learned a lot about ancient culture," Luo Mu followed over. "You're so energetic! Come here and take care of this genetically modified Karoo goose for me."
When Huo Chuan heard the word Karoo goose, he felt sick, not to mention the three big words "genetically modified" in front of it.
The Karoo goose is one of the most formidable of Wolf's wild species. Standing over two meters tall, its muscles are compact, and its legs are strong and powerful. With a leap of wings and its sharp beak, its combat power rivals that of an ordinary soldier.
However, it has high nutritional value and is a common species in their base.
Now there is a row of cages containing Karoo geese placed under the tree, and there are obviously quite a few of them.
I don't know which crazy instructor started this, saying it was to train them in actual combat, but every day they picked a few unlucky guys to deal with Karoo geese with their bare hands...
Tsk, that memory is simply horrible. Every time I come back, my body is covered with wounds. What if it accidentally pecks my thigh... uh...
Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Yueban quickly moved away.
Huo Chuan's eyes froze, and he was about to step back holding the basin: "No, no, no, it's better to leave this job to the others."
Luo Mu grabbed his collar and said, "I'm happy to choose you. I like you. I feel good..."
Huo Chuan almost cried: "No, no, Colonel Luo, I... I can't do that, I can't..."
Resistance was futile. Five minutes later, shouts could be heard from all over the base: "Fuck them! Catch them!"
Huo Chuan was laughing happily. A group of Karoo geese were running above the base, and one of the strong ones could even fight against many geese at once.
Half an hour later, everyone sat on the ground in disheveled clothes, pointing at Huo Chuan's nose and breathing heavily.
Huo Chuan looked up at the sky and whistled. "Happiness alone is not as good as sharing it with others." If live poultry is locked up for too long, the meat quality will definitely be poor. It's best to let them out to move around.
The dinner party was lively, and the drinking made it even more lively.
Yunmo raised the bottle and clinked glasses with them. The soldier drank, then the squad leader, then the platoon leader, then the company commander... After a long round, he was almost stunned, but the laughter and howling became louder and louder.
Luo Mu sat on the grass beside Yunmo, leaning against a tree, one leg bent and the other straight, looking relaxed as he squinted his eyes and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Yun Mo smiled: "They are very good."
Luo Mu: “Really?”
Yun Mo: "Yes."
Luo Mu glanced at her. She really didn't look like a new recruit. "You completed this mission very well, but it's just the beginning of your military career. Remember to guard against arrogance and impatience. There is still a long way to go..."
Yunmo looked up, gazed at the sky and smiled.
Yes, the goal is still far away, but there is only one way left for her - to move forward, to move forward by any means necessary! (Quoted from The Three-Body Problem)
