Married to the army by mistake, abstinent boss becomes addicted to pampering his wife

Chapter 318 I'm also very happy
On the parade ground, the entire regiment of more than 1,500 soldiers were lined up in a neat triangular formation.

Zhong Weiguo stood on the front stage, holding a megaphone high in his hand:

"...The task force led by Battalion Commander Lu of the First Battalion has successfully completed the mission assigned by the organization, protecting very important research results and scientific talents. The organization has specially awarded and commended all members of the task force! Now, the soldiers of the First Battalion whose names I call, please come up to the stage to receive the commendation!"

"Zhang Jiaming, Third Platoon, Third Company".

"Second Company, First Row of Tangyuan (sweet rice balls)".

"Jiang Peng, second platoon, first company."

Upon hearing his name called, Jiang Peng shouted "Here!" and then, beaming, ran out of the line and strode towards the stage.

As he walked along, every soldier in the battalion looked at him with envy.

He was selected to participate in a mission only six months after enlisting and was awarded a second-class merit. His future is immeasurable.

On the stage, ten soldiers, led by Lu Cheng, stood in a row, each wearing a red flower on their chest.

Zhong Weiguo personally presented awards to the ten people.

In addition to the medal for second-class merit, each person also received an enamel mug printed with the second-class merit, and a bonus of thirty yuan.

This was the first time Jiang Peng had ever been on stage to receive an award, and he was beaming from ear to ear.

"Besides the commendations, we have another important piece of good news today. To strengthen the management and development of our troops, the organization, after rigorous review and assessment, has promoted a number of outstanding sergeants. The list of promoted officers has been posted on the bulletin boards of each battalion, so I won't list them all. I hope all soldiers will take them as role models, be dedicated to their duties, train hard, and continuously improve themselves! Meeting adjourned!"

The troops withdrew in an orderly manner, organized by battalion.

The first to leave was the first company of the first battalion, which formed two long lines and marched out of the parade ground.

Soon it was Jiang Peng's turn, followed by his classmates Xu Dazhi and Gao Qiang.

"Jiang Peng, congratulations! You've won a second-class merit award. You're the first in our class to do so. Even the class monitor has only ever won a third-class merit award."

"In my opinion, you should be our class monitor!"

"With Battalion Commander Lu as our backer, let alone a squad leader, even a platoon leader is no problem!"

Jiang Peng glanced sideways at his classmates who were singing in unison, then turned his head and saw Zhao Hongbing heading towards the exit of the playground.

"Reporting to Company Commander Zhao!!"

Zhao Hongbing turned his head and looked over. He recognized Jiang Peng, raised an eyebrow, and walked over.

"What's the matter?"

Jiang Peng shouted, "Xu Dazhi just said that I should be the squad leader of our class, and Gao Qiang said that with Battalion Commander Lu as my backer, I can be a squad leader or even a platoon leader without any problem. Company Commander, I'm not well-educated and not very smart. I don't know if what they said is true. Can I really be a squad leader and a platoon leader?"

Zhao Hongbing almost laughed out of anger.

You little tattletale, you've even snitched on me! You're such a fool.

"Whether you can become a squad leader or platoon leader is not up to me or the battalion commander, but up to the organization. Do you understand?"

Jiang Peng: "Understood!"

As for Xu Dazhi and Gao Qiang, they were given a lecture by Zhao Hongbing and were also punished by having to make self-criticisms at a company meeting.

……

Lu Cheng was stopped by Zhong Weiguo for a chat. When he returned to the camp, he found that Zhao Hongbing and two other company commanders were guarding the entrance of the camp.

Upon seeing him, the three of them excitedly surrounded him.

"Congratulations, Battalion Commander!"

"What 'Land Battalion'? It should be called 'Land Regiment'!"

Lu Cheng frowned at the three of them. "What are you doing?"

"Lu Ying, no, Lu Tuan, don't try to hide it from us anymore, your promotion notice has already been posted! You've been promoted to regimental commander!"

Lu Cheng strode to the bulletin board and, sure enough, saw his promotion report. After holding a meeting for the First Battalion and assigning tasks to Zhao Hongbing and a few others, Lu Cheng headed to Zhong Weiguo's office.

As soon as he left, the entire battalion erupted in excitement, everyone happier than during the New Year.

"Great! We've expanded! From now on, it won't be called the First Battalion, it will be called the New First Regiment!"

"Hey, you guys think that since Lu Ying got promoted, shouldn't the three of us get promoted too?"

Zhao Hongbing, Li Lijun, and Sun Jianhua were also full of anticipation.

They were all at the company level, but this promotion would put them at the battalion level.

Jiang Peng was the happiest of all.

His brother-in-law actually got promoted to regimental commander!
All the promises his sister made to him—I mean, all the pie-in-the-sky promises—came true!
Once his brother-in-law becomes the regimental commander, he will become his brother-in-law's bodyguard. Just thinking about that life is wonderful.

Lu Cheng walked towards Zhong Weiguo's office, attracting countless stares.

He's so young to have been promoted to regimental commander; it's truly admirable and enviable.

When they arrived at Zhong Weiguo's office, Wang Fugui and Zhang Ziqiang were just coming out.

The two men looked at Lu Cheng with a noticeably more complicated and enigmatic gaze.

"Congratulations, Battalion Commander."

"Next time we meet, I'll have to call him Commander Lu."

Lu Cheng nodded to the two men, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then went into Zhong Weiguo's office.

Zhong Weiguo was clearly prepared for his arrival and calmly told him to close the door.

“Commander Zhong, didn’t I already tell you? I can’t take on the new commander position.”

"Whether you can do it or not is not up to me, but up to the organization! Do you dare disobey the organization's arrangements? Besides, you don't need to worry about Xiao Jiang joining the army; she has agreed."

After saying that, Zhong Weiguo couldn't help but reveal a smug look of complete control. "If you have any other difficulties, you can tell me all of them. If you can't solve them, the organization will find a way to help you."

Lu Cheng pursed his lips for a moment and said, "I personally have reservations about my promotion."

After leaving the command post, Lu Cheng went directly to the communications room.

Jiang Moli was about to leave when she received Lu Cheng's call.

Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and there's a lantern festival in People's Park. She plans to go with An Hui and Zhu Huanghua to the lantern festival to join in the fun.

“Jasmine, I apologize to you. Last time you asked me if I had received any other awards, I lied. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you. I deeply regret my behavior and promise you that I will never do it again.”

Jiang Moli hadn't taken the matter too seriously, but hearing the man's earnest apology, she couldn't help but smile.

"I'll forgive you this time because you're so sincere in admitting your mistake."

Lu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, his tone softening, "When did you find out about this?"

“A couple of days ago, my sister-in-law Wenjuan called me and brought up this matter.”

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"I'm just waiting for you to confess on your own initiative," Jiang Moli casually passed the buck back.

Lu Cheng replied truthfully, "We've discussed the matter of accompanying the army several times before. Since you're unwilling, I don't want to put you in a difficult position."

Jiang Moli teased, "Aren't you afraid of missing out on a bright future? Commander, don't you care at all?"

"Your future is important, but you are equally important. There will be plenty of opportunities to make contributions in the future, but you are unique. Ultimately, the organization's concerns about me are also my problem. I cannot let you bear the burden and pressure."

It has to be said that a man's sense of responsibility is truly reassuring and captivating.

"Lu Cheng, I believe you can become the leader of the group based on your own abilities, but I'm also happy to do something for you."
