Crossing A Small Country And Developing GDP To The First Place

PS: The fourth update is to make up for the missed chapter from last week!

Republic of Burkina.

Dugagu.

2nd Infantry Brigade, 121st Infantry Regiment station.

…

“one two three four……”

Outside the window, there are slogans of soldiers sweating under the scorching sun.

A lieutenant colonel officer stood by the window, looking at the training ground with binoculars. The sun shone slantly on him, making it difficult to see his face.

“Dong dong dong——”

There was a knock on the door.

“Please come in.”

The lieutenant colonel turned around and showed his face.

It’s Aaron!

If Aaron’s mother saw it, she would not believe that this was her son.

Because the childishness before was long gone, replaced by resolute eyes and a tough face, as if they were two completely different people.

An orderly pushed open the door and entered.

He saluted Aaron and said, “Lieutenant Colonel Aaron, the brigade commander wants you to report to the brigade headquarters immediately.”

…

“Aaron, how old are you?”

A major general officer sat behind his desk. Judging from his appearance, he was at least 40 years old.

“A month ago, I just turned 18.”

“18 years old!”

Although he knew Aaron’s age, the major general was still shocked when Aaron said it himself.

I even wondered if I was dreaming!

The major general sighed with emotion: “The 18-year-old deputy commander of the lieutenant colonel… is only less than a year older than when President Sankara was promoted to lieutenant colonel! Not to mention other countries, in our country of Burkina, you should be the youngest ”

And most importantly.

Aaron has entered the president’s sight and has been included in the key training list.

The major general officers now dare not think about how far Aaron will go when he reaches 40 years old.

In his current position, Aaron is definitely stable.

So, we only need to consider whether he is a lieutenant general or a division commander? Or a general?

Or even the Secretary of Defense?

“well–”

The major general sighed in his heart.

The gap between people is really wider than the gap between people and dogs!

“Lieutenant Colonel Aaron, on behalf of the Ministry of National Defense, I officially inform you that you have been selected into the list of officers to study at the Soviet Military Academy. Please report to the Ministry of National Defense before ten o’clock in the morning on July 25.”

The Major General took out a piece of paper from the drawer.

It bears the red seal of the Ministry of Defense, the signature of Minister Katele and the signature of President Sankara.

“!?”

Aaron was very surprised. He stood up immediately, took a step forward, and took the paper in disbelief.

After reading the above content.

Aaron asked in confusion: “Isn’t it said that only military cadets are eligible to be sent to study in the Soviet Union? I am now an active-duty officer.”

“It is true that only military cadets are eligible, so you are specially approved by the president.

Among so many active-duty officers in the army, only you and two others have this honor. Please do not let down the president’s training and trust in you! ”

As a direct descendant of Sankara, the major general couldn’t help but add the last sentence.

“I, Aaron, will swear allegiance to the country and people to the death!”

“I’m talking about the president… never mind, it’s all the same.”

…

Dougagu, residential area.

In the smoke that rises straight into the sky, the smell of meat can be heard in every house. This was something that in the old Dugagu would not even be dreamed of at night.

“I really envy Annayi. Calculating the time, her son William should be on his way to the Soviet Union now. He is the first in the government to study abroad. When William comes back, I don’t dare to think how good his future will be! ”

In addition to envy, there was also sadness in Aaron’s mother’s eyes.

Thinking of William and then her son Aaron, Aaron’s mother suddenly felt that the meat in her mouth had no taste at all.

Aaron’s father seems to be a bit “heartless”.

While he was devouring his food, he replied incoherently: “William, that kid has been smart since he was a child. He used to have very good academic performance, and now he almost gets full marks in all subjects. Even if he doesn’t study abroad, his future achievements will be It won’t be low!”

“Sigh… I don’t know whether my son is dead or alive now!”

Aaron’s mother sighed.

She still doesn’t understand why Aaron secretly ran away to become a soldier. She even doubted whether Aaron had died on the battlefield.

“He secretly went to be a soldier. Why do you care so much? If he dies, he will die!”

Aaron’s father seemed unconcerned.

But in his eyes, the yearning and worry for Aaron were no more than those of William’s mother.Mom.

at this time.

“Dong dong dong——”

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Aaron’s father seems to be uneasy from the knock on the door?

“Who will come to our house at this time?”

Just when Aaron’s father was curious.

Aaron’s mother was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to feel something. She put down the dishes and hurriedly ran to open the door.

“Click——”

As the door handle turned, the door opened.

“Mom, I’m sorry!”

Aaron was standing outside the door.

His eyes showed guilt, fear, longing, and joy… just like a child who made a mistake and was at a loss when he came home and saw his parents.

At the same time, Aaron was still wearing a neat military uniform, with medals hanging on his chest.

The next second.

Aaron’s mother hugged Aaron directly, and then said softly:

“Son, welcome home!”

…

Three days later.

“Son, I heard that it’s very cold over there in the Soviet Union. It’s said that it snows all year round. We may not see snow here for several years, so you should bring more thick clothes to avoid getting cold.”

Aaron’s mother put two thick and heavy coats that she spent half a month’s salary on at a clothing store yesterday into Aaron’s suitcase.

Aaron said helplessly: “Mom, I told you that the army would prepare it for us, so we don’t need to buy it. Why did you buy it secretly? It’s not easy for you and dad to make money, so don’t spend money on me.”

Sudden!

Aaron seemed to have remembered something, and quickly took out a bank card from his pocket and stuffed it into his mother’s hand.

Then he said: “This is the salary card given to me by the army. Every month, 5,400 North African dollars are paid to this card. I am in the army now for food and accommodation, and I don’t need the money. You and dad can take it.” Live your life better.”

Just as Aaron’s mother was about to refuse, Aaron’s father, who was standing aside, said, “This is my son’s wish, just accept it.”

“Okay, then I’ll keep it first.”

After hearing what her husband said, Aaron’s mother hesitated for a few seconds and accepted Aaron’s salary card.

But from the looks of it, she would probably save it for Aaron to get married and have children in the future.

Half an hour later.

Aaron was standing at the door wearing a military uniform and carrying a heavy suitcase.

“Son, you must take good care of yourself in the army! When you go to the Soviet Union, you must remember to wear more clothes. Also, if there is a war in the future, you must protect yourself…”

Aaron’s mother kept talking, but found that she could not finish her words because she had too many things in her heart that she wanted to say to Aaron.

“My son still has to report for registration! Don’t waste time.”

In the end, Aaron’s father stood up and interrupted Aaron’s mother’s nagging.

Then.

He looked Aaron up and down, patted Aaron on the shoulder, and nodded with satisfaction.

There was a pause for a few seconds.

Aaron’s father said softly: “Son, I know why you joined the army. But what I want to say is that the current President Sankara is a good man, different from those bastard presidents before, so…”

So Aaron’s father didn’t say the following words.

“Hahaha… Dad, don’t worry! Because my goal has changed now.”

Aaron smiled at first.

at last.

Aaron stopped his smile and solemnly promised:

“I will never let anyone disturb your better and better life!”
