Chapter 368: A Wedding Leads To An Upsurge In Joining The Army
By the time it got dark in the afternoon.
Jiang Ge's house was completely lively.
Parents' friends, as well as relatives at home, came to eat wedding candy wave after wave to arrange things.
Jiang Ge opened another table in the small living room next to him with a few old classmates.
Zhou Xiaoshuai, Wang Shuqing, Ma Ruiqiang, and Zhu Yanwei who rushed over from Jiangmen have all arrived.
Including Kong Wu, who rushed over from Kyoto, and some friends I met while studying Gongge there.
There were about twenty people sitting in a small living room.
This is also fortunately in winter.
If it is placed in summer.
With so many people, I'm afraid the air conditioner won't work.
Since most of them are soldiers, each of them has a quite heroic personality.
In addition, some of them are old classmates who haven't seen for a long time.
The excitement here is not bad at all.
Zhou Xiaoshuai and Li Chenglong have a very good relationship with Jiang Ge.
Specially responsible for moving and pouring wine.
More than twenty gentlemen.
Drinking is like an assembly line.
A box of baijiu is basically gone after two laps.
Jiang Ge poured a glass of wine and stood up, looking at the crowd.
"Come on, let's raise our glasses together. You are very welcome to come to my wedding."
"You must eat and drink well tonight, don't be polite.
The voice just fell here.
Zhou Xiaoshuai started to help and run around to greet things.
The original arrangement was to go to the hotel.
But everyone considered that Jiang Ge still had a lot of things to do at home.
The next day is the wedding.
There are many details to arrange.
If you go to the hotel, it is inconvenient to go back and forth 29 busy.
Besides, marriage is fun.
After playing with me for a while.
Jiang Ge stood up and was about to go out to make a phone call, but there was no notice.
Feng Shaohua, an old neighbor of the National Defense Academy in Kyoto, called once every two days to remind him that he would definitely come.
Seeing that the day is coming.
Jiang Ge did not receive any news.
The Seventy-fifth Army was different.
Jiang Ge once stayed in the third battalion.
He also served as a training staff officer in the brigade staff department.
In the congratulatory calls from the army, several people said that Brigadier Feng Chunyang had already set off.
Duan Wenyang, the instructor of the Fifth Battalion, came with him.
Zhao Junxiang, the battalion commander of the third battalion.
This is all approved by the leaders.
Originally, these people were also brought out by Jiang Ge, except that Chu Hongfan was transferred to the 77th Army.
Temporarily serving as the battalion commander there, there is no way to rush over.
Yu Lei is also a member of the Seventy-fifth Army.
So is Jiang Ge.
After many considerations of the group army, Chief of Staff Qin Longfeng specially arranged for them to take military helicopters from the western theater to the central theater.
Then arrange a vehicle escort.
These Jiang Ge got the news.
It's almost time to calculate.
But there has been no news on the phone.
Just when he was about to go out and call to inquire.
Xiao Jianlei, Minister of Armed Forces of Yecheng, knocked on the door.
After Jiang Ge opened the door and saw someone coming.
Hastily invited people into the house.
"Minister Xiao, if you have anything to do, just call, or ask someone to come over and let me know. I'll go over there."
"How can I bother you to come and run in person?"
Xiao Jianlei smiled and waved.
"Haha, why are you being polite to me?"
"I came here because I have something to tell you. Comrades from Eighty-Three and Seventy-Five have already come."
"I've already arranged accommodation at the Ministry of Armed Forces."
"Considering that your place is relatively busy tonight, the comrades over there don't plan to come over to make trouble.
"I'll come with you tomorrow morning."
"You should be busy with your work, I just came here to talk to you."
Jiang Ge nodded.
Among the eighty-three people who came over, the only one was old neighbor Feng Shaohua.
The relationship between the two of them has been going well this year.
Not superior and inferior.
But the people from Seventy-Five, especially Feng Chunyang, strictly speaking belonged to their superiors.
There is no reason not to pass.
"Minister Xiao, let me walk with you.
"It's not the way to treat guests if I don't show up."
Xiao Jianlei shook his head.
"You leave the matter over there to me, don't worry.
"All the departments in the city have informed us that they have already arranged the reception work."
"You concentrate on your business."
"Okay, I still have to go to Sizhi's house to inform."
"Several comrades from the Air Defense Brigade over there at the Seventy-Five have also come, our city of Ye is quite lively today."
"Well, let me do my best as a landlord.
I heard the other party say that.
Jiang Ge couldn't hold on any longer.
Originally, he guessed that because of his marriage, some senior officials would come over, so he made arrangements in advance.
Unexpectedly, the group army had already considered it.
But think about it too.
Yu Lei's identity is a lieutenant in the scientific research department of the air defense brigade, and the influence she brings is not very great.
The real influence is on Jiang Ge's side.
After the training is over.
The group army has already reserved the position of brigade chief of staff for him.
Because of the plan he proposed to form a synthetic company.
It caused quite a stir in the entire western theater.
Even if it is to make Jiang Ge better serve the army.
Or it is out of the superior's concern for the following.
The group should take this impact into consideration.
After sending off Minister Xiao.
Jiang Ge also received relatives and friends with his parents.
It was busy until about ten o'clock.
Except for Jiang Ge's friends.
All other relatives have gone back.
Li Chenglong and the others came to the downstairs of the community with a bunch of fireworks.
Huo Nao picked the two biggest ones and kept them by his side.
"I'm telling you, don't grab anyone from me."
"These are the two biggest I'm responsible for igniting."
"It means that Brother Jiang has a happy life after marriage."
Ma Longfei also chose an extra-large fireworks bucket.
Some of these items were bought by members of Jiang Ge's family.
There are also quite a few gifts from relatives.
It was also sent by other departments.
The accumulation has reached more than one hundred.
More than 20 good brothers took these fireworks and placed the four characters "Happy Newly Married" on the ground.
Then start lighting in groups of six.
for a moment.
The sky above the community was covered by fireworks.
The dark night sky.
It shines like daylight.
Many residents who had already entered the bed saw this scene and got up from the bed one after another.
Stretch your head to watch the fireworks outside.
Originally, these things could only be encountered on New Year's Eve or during the Lantern Festival.
Now it's like seeing it in advance.
Jiang Ge's parents stood by.
Looking at a group of people laughing and laughing, there are smiles on their faces.
Maybe parents.
What I like to watch most is the moment when the children get married.
More than one hundred barrels of fireworks.
It was left abruptly for almost half an hour.
Originally, Jiang Ge and Yu Lei both requested that their wedding should not be so extravagant and wasteful.
Keep it simple.
But so many fireworks are set off.
It's impossible to keep a low profile.
Residents in Yecheng who saw the fireworks could think of which family was going to have a happy event.
And seeing this kind of movement is not an ordinary family.
For an ordinary family to marry a daughter-in-law and set off fireworks, it takes more than a dozen barrels to top the sky.
And it's still that kind of keg.
The ones Jiang Ge and the others put in are almost as thick as Li Chenglong's waist.
Otherwise, it won't last half an hour.
After the fireworks are over.
There is no need for Jiang Ge to do it himself.
A group of people rushed up and dismantled all those cars
Disassemble it into shredded paper and pile it over there in the garbage area.
Then clean up the ground.
This has made many residents more aware of the fine style of the soldiers.
Constantly educating their children.
If I can join the army when I grow up, I will certainly join the army.
To be a real man.
Really don't say it.
Because of Jiang Ge in Yecheng, there was really a wave of enthusiasm for joining the army in the past two years.
The main reason is that the Ministry of Armed Forces sent the good news several times in a row.
It's with great fanfare every time.
It made many young people encounter this kind of scene, and they began to imagine that they would join the army, and they must bring such honors.
If it weren't for the limited number of places to join the army in each region.
Yecheng in the past two years.
It is estimated that the total number of people joining the army in a small county can exceed ten of the other counties combined.
After everything is done.
Jiang Ge took them to the booked hotel for 343 nights.
It was lively until very late to rest.
the day before the wedding.
Destined to be a sleepless night.
next morning.
That is the day when the wedding was originally scheduled on the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.
It was just after eight o'clock.
More than 20 military vehicles came from the Armed Forces, decorated with red flowers, which looked particularly festive.
They entered the community one after another.
The car to greet the relatives has not come yet.
Instead, so many troop vehicles came over.
The residents in the community widened their eyes even more.
Because there are more than 20 military vehicles, there are almost 70 people who got off from the top.
All of them are in high spirits and spit out extraordinary.
Among these people were members of the Armed Forces Department of Yecheng.
There are also people from Bashishi's side.
More are the officers of the two synthetic brigades of the Seventy-fifth Army who came to attend the wedding.
And that's not all the staff at the wedding.
Because of the people from the air defense brigade.
Arranged by the Armed Forces Department of Yecheng, he went directly to Yu Lei's home.
There are dozens of military vehicles with big red flowers hanging in the morning.
Drive on the road.
Such a high profile act.
Works better than any recruiting promo.
Many office workers encountered this scene and recorded it on their mobile phones and posted it on the Internet.
In less than half a day.
The video has been reposted hundreds of thousands of times.
What Jiang Ge didn't expect in advance was the holding of a wedding.
It not only set off an upsurge of joining the army locally.
Even on a national scale.
Because of the transmission of short videos.
The promotion of positive energy.
The enthusiasm of young people everywhere to join the army has also begun to rise.
the reason is simple.
Every young man has a dream of his own.
If these dreams are brought together into one stream.
There is no doubt that joining the army is the fastest and most direct way.
Maybe many people in the army will regret it, this is not what they imagined.
But they are welcome in the army.
Wait until one day when these people have to take off their military uniforms.
They are also greatly missed. .
