Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

After saying that, she looked at Zhang Anbang and said, "How exactly did you train? Don't just say it's because you fire a lot of bullets. People in our unit don't like to go shooting practice, and I've used up almost half of my bullet quota myself, firing more than a hundred rounds every month. I consider myself to have pretty good talent, but I still haven't achieved your kind of marksmanship."

Zhang Anbang put down his chopsticks, smiled, and said, "It's really just that I fired more bullets, nothing else, just a little more than you."

Gu Xiaonan looked at Zhang Anbang, "How much is 'a little bit more'?"

Zhang Anbang glanced at the railway and saw him nod slightly. "The month before last, we fired more, over six thousand rounds. Last month, we fired less, over three thousand rounds. This month, so far, we've fired less than a thousand rounds."

Zhang Anbang only gave a rough estimate; in reality, they don't fire that many rounds normally, averaging less than two thousand bullets a month.

Gu Xiaonan's almond-shaped eyes widened. "You call this a little more?"

My monthly income isn't even a fraction of what you make. Hey, is your army still recruiting? Do you need female soldiers?

"Ah," Zhang Anbang was a little stunned, so sudden. "This, this isn't up to me."

Zhang Anbang wanted to say that frontline troops don't actually fire many bullets, not even as many as she did at the research institute.

When he was in the Steel Seventh Company, which was an elite company, the soldiers of the Steel Seventh Company only fired an average of a little over a hundred bullets a month, about the same as Gu Xiaonan.

However, saying it would directly indicate that he is now in a special unit, so he simply didn't say it.

Railway laughed heartily, "Hiring, hiring! Xiaonan, I've talked to your dad, you can come work for me, what do you think?"

Gu Xiaonan looked at Gu Zhenchuan with a face full of surprise, "Dad, really? I can really go, I don't have to stay at the research institute anymore."

She had thought it through very clearly. Since Zhang Anbang came with the railway and was a front-line soldier, he would definitely be a front-line soldier when he went to the railway, and a special one at that.

After all, she had never heard of any front-line field unit that could reach the amount of bullets Zhang Anbang mentioned.

She knew that front-line field troops actually fired even fewer bullets, but that was just a reason she made up on the spot. She just wanted to go to the front-line troops, preferably special units.

That kind of place must be more interesting than my current somewhat repetitive daily life.

Looking at his daughter's hopeful eyes, Gu Zhenchuan nodded. "Yes, I've already talked to your Uncle Tie. After the formalities are completed in a few days, you can go to Uncle Tie's place. He's in the front-line troops. Are you happy now?"

Gu Xiaonan beamed, "Happy, happy, thank you Dad, long live Dad!"

"Haha, okay, okay, let's eat, let's eat."

……

The meal took an hour. Well, the rice was fragrant, the dishes were delicious, and the 45° premium Baiyunbian sauce was rich and flavorful with a smooth and delicious taste.

The lotus root and pork rib soup is even more delicious, with tender pork ribs and soft, powdery lotus root pieces that melt in your mouth. The soup is clear, fresh, and sweet, not oily or greasy. One sip and warmth spreads from your stomach.

Overall, this was probably the best meal Zhang Anbang had ever had, and he was quite full, even a little stuffed.

That's right, Zhang Anbang felt a bit uneasy during the meal, not for any other reason than Chen Jinglan was too enthusiastic. Although she didn't personally serve him food, she kept urging him to eat and sometimes even turned the table around.

"Anbang, don't be shy. Treat yourself at home like you're at work. Eat more vegetables."

"Try this steamed pork with rice flour. It's a local Hubei style. See if it suits your taste."

"Eat more fish, it's cooked at home and it's clean. Training in the army is tough, so you need to replenish your nutrition."

"There's enough food, and there's still rice in the pot, so eat more."

Hmm, that's too polite, a bit too enthusiastic. This attitude made Zhang Anbang feel flattered, but at the same time, he felt something was amiss.

Back when he was in the Seventh Steel Company, he had eaten at Gao Cheng's house once, though Gao Shijun wasn't there. Gao Cheng's mother was very welcoming, but it was completely different from the feeling he had with Chen Jinglan.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Anbang still couldn't figure out what was wrong. He could only conclude that the captain was indeed the captain, and he had a lot of influence. Everyone who came along benefited from his position.

Gu Xiaonan also felt that her mother was acting a little strange today. Although her mother was not a quiet person, she had never been this enthusiastic towards people before.

When guests come over, we just have normal conversations, and the suggestion to cook is made only once.

Why are you suddenly so enthusiastic towards Zhang Anbang today? Could it be that you see Zhang Anbang as a young soldier and think that being a soldier is not easy?

That doesn't seem quite right either; I've been here before and it wasn't like this.

No, I need to find out what's going on after we finish eating.

……

Gu Zhenchuan waved, "Xiaonan, drive Anbang to the military guesthouse. I'll talk to your Uncle Tie for a bit longer, then I'll take him back."

"Okay," Gu Xiaonan replied, took the car keys, put on her coat, and prepared to go out.

Zhang Anbang did not refuse and thanked him repeatedly.

These days, there are no drunk driving checks, especially when leaving the military compound and heading to the guesthouse, there are no traffic police checking. As for the military police, to be honest, there aren't many military police officers who are really determined to check car number 1.

However, according to Article 113 of the Internal Service Regulations, military personnel are prohibited from drinking alcohol, driving motor vehicles, or operating weapons and equipment while intoxicated.

Article 97 of the disciplinary regulations stipulates that those who cause trouble while intoxicated, disrupt normal order, or drive motor vehicles or operate weapons and equipment while intoxicated will be warned for minor offenses, given a demerit for serious offenses, and demoted, reduced in rank, or even dismissed for severe offenses.

Many things, if you don't weigh them, they're nothing; but if you do weigh them, they're as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Although he had done this before, Zhang Anbang didn't dare to suggest driving himself after drinking in front of a military commander.

Gu Xiaonan was very happy. While driving, she said, "Zhang Anbang, I'm so happy today! My dad finally agreed to let me go to the front-line troops. Your unit isn't an ordinary unit, is it?"

Zhang Anbang smiled. He didn't know which battalion the railway had assigned Gu Xiaonan to, and some things couldn't be said casually. "Congratulations then. As for which unit, you'll find out when you get there."

Gu Xiaonan pouted, "You're really tight-lipped. But it's okay, I'll find out when I get there. Just wait and see, I'll definitely make my dad look at me in a new light."

"Haha," Zhang Anbang couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Xiaonan was a little puzzled. "Why are you laughing all of a sudden?"

Zhang Anbang waved his hand, "It's nothing, it just reminded me of someone when I saw you arguing with your dad?"

Gu Xiaonan immediately became interested, "Who is it? Your boyfriend?"

"Uh, not a girlfriend. I'm a bachelor, where would I get a girlfriend? It's my old company commander, who's always arguing with his dad."

He wanted to achieve his success on his own, fearing that others would think his achievements were all because of his father. He imagined that one day when people introduced him, they would say, "This is so-and-so's father," rather than "This is so-and-so's son."

However, he didn't know that most of the recognition others gave him was based on his abilities, not on who his father was...
