Chapter 862: Promoted to Major General



On the second floor of Xu Jianguo's house, Wen Sitian and Daya finally managed to coax Xu Ping'an.

The little guy looked so pitiful with tears in his eyes.

When Xu Jianguo returned to the bedroom, Xu Ping'an was hugging Wen Sitian's neck, with his little head resting on his mother's shoulder and acting coquettishly.

He ignored his father's arrival.

As soon as Wen Sitian saw Xu Jianguo come in, she was immediately furious. If it wasn't for this guy teasing her and Daya, how could her son be scared and cry.

After figuring out the key, Wen Sitian directly handed Xu Ping'an to Daya, then rolled up her sleeves and walked towards Xu Jianguo.

Seeing this, Xu Jianguo knew that disaster was coming. He immediately put on a pleading expression and said, "Wife, calm down. You must calm down!"

Wen Sitian was not willing to let this bad guy go easily, so she grabbed Xu Jianguo's ear and dragged him out the door.

When the little guy Xu Ping'an saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his chubby little face. He stretched out his two fat little hands and clapped his hands, giggling, looking very happy.

Daya, who was used to such scenes, didn't laugh as unscrupulously as Xu Ping'an, but she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and she looked like she was trying very hard to hold it back.

After dragging Xu Jianguo to the bedroom downstairs and giving him a beating, Wen Sitian suddenly felt refreshed.

After going upstairs to see Xu Ping'an who was coaxed to sleep, Wen Sitian and Daya returned to the living room together.

Xu Jianguo was sitting on the sofa in the living room, rubbing his ears and chest. Seeing the two girls coming downstairs, he hurriedly asked, "How did you two do on the exam?"

Wen Sitian and Daya smiled at each other, then simultaneously put on a proud expression and said in unison, "398 points!"

"What the hell? 398 points? You two got the same score?" Xu Jianguo asked in disbelief.

Although he knew that his wife and Daya had good grades, he didn't expect that the two of them almost got full marks.

This can no longer be described as awesome, it can be said to be super awesome.

Why do I say so? The reason actually lies in the admission rate.

In his previous life, Xu Jianguo had seen the ranking of admission rates of previous college entrance examinations in the newspaper. Among them, the admission rate of this year's college entrance examination after its resumption was the lowest.

A total of 5.7 million people took the college entrance examination nationwide, but only 270,000 of them realized their dreams, with an admission rate of only 4.7%.

Compared with 92.8% in 2021, this data can be said to be a true situation where thousands of troops are crossing a single-plank bridge.

And these 270,000 admitted students became the cornerstone of Longxia's rapid development and surpassing Western countries many years later.

With the full resumption of the college entrance examination, batches of talents entered their respective fields of expertise, and the development of Longxia Kingdom officially began to accelerate.

At this point, Wen Sitian and Daya finally felt relieved. They were 100% sure that in the near future, they would be able to enter the classrooms of Jingzhou University and learn more abundant knowledge.

In the evening, the children returned home and were very happy to hear the good news.

Little foodies Lele and Funiu instantly turned into cute pendants and hung on Xu Jianguo. After the two of them acted coquettishly, they successfully got a lot of snacks and drinks.

After sharing, the children happily hid back in their rooms with a large meal of delicious food.

Time flies.

At the beginning of July, Wen Sitian and Daya successfully received the admission letters from Jingzhou University, and the whole family celebrated again.

In mid-August, Xu Jianguo attended the ceremony for his promotion to the rank of major general in a conference room in the West Hall of the Red Wall, and was once again awarded a first-class medal of merit.

At the same time, the guards and communicators personally selected for him by Mr. Zhou have also arrived.

Both of them were from the Security Bureau. The guard was named Zhao Changshan and the communicator was named Liu Yang.

Some people may be confused about the division of responsibilities between guards and communicators. Simply put, guards are responsible for guarding the leaders, while communicators are also called messengers. They are mainly responsible for conveying orders downwards. Their job responsibilities are similar to those of secretaries and assistants in later generations.

Not long after Xu Jianguo was promoted to the rank of major general, Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang, the two people he had been looking forward to for a long time, were officially transferred to Jingzhou.

Ma Guoliang served as deputy commander of the Jingzhou Military Region, while Dong Jixiang was half a level lower than him and served as commander of one of the military bases under the Jingzhou Military Region.

This military base is only a dozen kilometers away from the main urban area of ​​Jingzhou. Its main task is to defend the red walls of Jingzhou, which is equivalent to the imperial guards and city defense forces in ancient times.

Xu Jianguo was very happy when he heard the news. After finding out the residence of the two, he drove directly there.

After the three met, there was an inevitable round of greetings. In the evening, they went directly to Xu Jianguo's house, and the three old men Su Dingshan, Wu Tianlong and Wang Huaian were not left behind.

Lin Wan and Sun Xiuqin were naturally very close to the children after seeing them, especially Xu Ping'an. The little guy was born in Jingzhou. At that time, the two aunts were in Fengzhou and Dawali respectively, so this was the first time they saw this little boy.

Although both of them are grandmothers, their children are not around, so when they see Xu Jianguo's large group of children, they naturally like them very much.

The two took turns holding Xu Ping'an until dinner time when they gave him back to Wen Sitian.

During the meal, when Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang heard Su Dingshan say that Xu Jianguo had already been promoted to the rank of major general, they immediately opened their mouths wide and stared at him in disbelief, recalling the scene when they first met at the Binhai Base.

It has to be said that Xu Jianguo's promotion speed was really frighteningly fast. Not only Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang were surprised, but even Su Dingshan, who had been a soldier all his life, was shocked.

After dinner, the women were responsible for clearing the dishes, while the men went directly to the yard to drink tea, smoke and chat.

As they chatted, Xu Jianguo asked about Wu Dajiang's recent situation. When Su Dingshan heard this, he slapped his thigh and said, "I was wondering if I forgot to mention something. Crazy Wu will be taking office next month!"

"Old chief, where was that guy transferred to?" Ma Guoliang asked.

"Haha, he's not far from you. He's the commander of the Jinzhou Military Region and he's at the same level as this guy!" Su Dingshan said as he pointed at Dong Jixiang.

When they heard this, they were filled with emotion. As comrades-in-arms and good friends for many years, they were all happy for Wu Dajiang. This hurdle was finally over and the future would be bright.

Just as a few people were chatting, a prompt sound suddenly came from Xu Jianguo's mind. He opened the system panel and found that it was Fu Bo who sent him a message.

However, after Xu Jianguo checked the message, although there was no expression on his face, his heart was already filled with murderous intent.
