Chapter 51: The Return of the Marines (2)

The ship had not yet landed, but saw that the shore was full of people to greet them. There was also a band of honors on the shore, and there was a neatly dressed band. Luo Yue was also a little surprised. He did not expect so many people to welcome the return of the Marine Corps. In fact, they were not the first group of returning combat troops. They had already returned two groups in front, but this time all returned were members of the Marine Corps, with a total of one division and two regiments, with about 22,000 people.

The ship slowly landed on the gangway and boarded the gangway. Luo Yue was the first to get off the gangway. Minister of Navy Shang Jinfeng immediately greeted him. Luo Yue hurriedly stood attentively and saluted, saying, "Minister Shang."

Shang Jinfeng returned a bow, then reached out to hold Luo Yue and said, "Captain Luo, welcome you back." At this time, the military band also played cheerful music, and the welcome crowd immediately made a cheerful sound and burst out with warm applause. Many people were holding flowers and waving banners.

Luo Yue said: "Minister Shang, this is too grand!"

Shang Jinfeng smiled and said, "You are a meritorious army and have made great contributions on the Japanese battlefield. Now that you are back, of course you have to make it more grand and increase the sense of honor of the soldiers."

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Yes, it is really hard for the troops to fight in Japan, so this is a kind of comfort."

Shang Jinfeng laughed and said, "This is nothing. The Marine Corps commendation meeting will be held tomorrow. This is the highlight. But you can't go back now. Let's go to the Military Commission first. Lao Xiao is waiting for you? The guards will send your things back first."

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange the troops and go immediately."

So Luo Yue ordered the troops to go back to the barracks to rest first, and asked his guards to take his luggage home first, followed him and told his family, and waited for a while to pick him up at the Military Commission.

So the Marines lined up and walked down the gangway in turn, and the welcome crowds automatically split a road, allowing the Marines to pass through, and kept cheering and applause. The people holding the flowers stuffed their flowers into the hands of the soldiers, and some people took out the big red flowers prepared in advance and put them on the soldiers. The whole atmosphere was very warm. The soldiers were also very excited. In fact, during the Japanese war, many people did have fluctuations in their hearts. Bi Jing was fighting far away from their hometown. After the fresh energy passed, the mood of homesickness was naturally becoming stronger and stronger, but now it seems that these efforts are worth it.

After the army left the port, Luo Yue and Jin Feng got on the car, went to the Military Commission together, and went straight to Xiao Jianjun's office.

After the ceremony, the three of them sat down on the reception sofa. Xiao Jianjun said, "Little Ronaldo, you fought very well in Japan this time and showed our military power. You didn't see Hirobu Ito coming to negotiate. You are honest with Sun Jie. If you didn't fight well in Japan, he would be so cowardly? So you made great contributions."

Luo Yue said: "Commissioner Xiao has been awarded, these are what we should do."

Xiao Jianjun nodded and said, "Russia also requested the restart of negotiations in the Northeast. The possibility of this negotiation is very high. After the war is over, there should be no large-scale wars for a period of time, so you can also stay in Qingdao, stay for a while, have a good rest, and spend more time with your family. However, Lao Qin may have to stay in the Northeast for a while, and your family cannot be reunited."

Luo Yue hurriedly said: "We can understand that it is all for the country."

Xiao Jianjun said: "Today I specially called you here, mainly to tell you that although there is nothing happening during this period, you cannot be idle either. Although we won the Far East War, we also exposed many problems with the troops. The Navy and Army will repair and improve the construction of the troops. I think the Marine Corps is no exception."

Luo Yue said: "Yes, when I was in Japan, I was already considering the next development of the Marine Corps and wrote a lot of notes."

Xiao Jianjun said: "Very good. You are indeed a person with a lot of heart, but I don't know if you have considered it. It's the positioning of the Marine Corps!"

Luo Yue was stunned and said, "Location?"

Shang Jinfeng said: "There are two opinions in the Military Commission now. One is to set up the Marine Corps into an independent branch, just like the United States, to give full play to the advantages of the Marine Corps' quick response, flexible arrangement and comprehensive combat capabilities; the other is that the Marine Corps is still in the Navy and is just a land force of the Navy. Because you are the commander of the Marine Corps, you should have the most say in the positioning of the Marine Corps, so we also want to hear your opinions."

Luo Yue thought for a while and said, "What I am considering is the improvement of the Marine Corps system, and I have never thought about the positioning of the Marine Corps!" After a pause, he said, "And in principle, the positioning of the Marine Corps should not be a question for officers at my level to consider. It should be considered at the level of the Military Commission. I will only implement it according to the resolutions of the Military Commission."

Xiao Jianjun smiled and said, "The establishment must be based on the positioning. If the positioning of the Marine Corps is not clear, then the establishment will be impossible. Of course, the officers at your level do not need to consider this issue in principle, but now our institutions and systems are not perfect, so don't stick to the form. You are the commander of the Marine Corps, and in this Far East War, you have fought a lot of wars with the Marine Corps, so your opinions are also very important. Although you have not considered this issue, you are not in a hurry. We still have time. Tomorrow is the Marine Corps commendation meeting, and you will discuss it together the Military Commission the day after tomorrow. You can also think about it carefully in the past two days."

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Okay, I will think about it seriously."

Xiao Jianjun said: "I'm looking for you, mainly because this matter is not going to waste your time. Go back and rest. You young couple haven't seen each other for more than half a year. I dare not keep you anymore, otherwise Xiaoying will sue me in front of your mother-in-law again."

Luo Yue also smiled, then stood up and said goodbye to Xiao Jianjun and leave.

After coming out of Xiao Jianjun's office, Luo Yue followed the stairs down the stairs and went to the lobby of the Military Commission Building. He glanced at him and saw Zhou Weiying wearing a military uniform sitting on the rest sofa in the lobby. At this time, Zhou Weiying's eyes were just in front of the stairs. The two of them looked at each other and both noticed each other.

Luo Yue couldn't help but feel excited and rushed over. Zhou Weiying also stood up from the sofa and came over. The two of them hugged each other immediately, which attracted a lot of attention. However, when they saw their epaulettes, they didn't say anything, and just glanced at them.

Although Luo Yue and Zhou Weiying are not old, their military ranks are not low. Luo Yue is now 31 years old, but he is already at the rank of major general. Zhou Weiying is only 28 years old and has the rank of colonel. Two young men have such high ranks. Everyone knows that these are two veteran officers. Therefore, even if their behavior is a bit out of order, the naturalized officers will certainly not dare to care. Most veteran officers know the two, and know that they are reunited by couples, and they can understand their behavior. The eyes of the two are also kind.

However, Luo Yue and Zhou Weiying are not people who are not distinguished from the seriousness of the occasion. They were just now unable to fall in love, but they quickly recovered, so they quickly separated. Luo Yue said: "Why are you here? Are you doing things?" Although Zhou Weiying is a soldier, she is actually a medical soldier and a technical soldier. She generally doesn't have any trouble with the Military Commission.

Zhou Weiying said: "I am here to pick you up. Xiao Qi has already sent your luggage to his home and told us that you have come to the Military Commission. He was going to come here to pick you up. I think he has worked hard enough, so I asked him to go back and rest. I came here to pick you up. Let's go home!"

Luo Yue nodded and said, "Okay, go home."

The two walked out of the Military Commission Building together. Zhou Weiying led Luo Yue to the parking lot next to the building. In front of a quaint car, she opened the door of the driver's seat and said, "Get on the car."

Luo Yue opened the car door on the other side and said, "You have already obtained your driver's license? Is the car coming from the hospital?"

Zhou Weiying smiled and said, "Of course it's not from the hospital. Although my father is not at home, my mother won't let me use the hospital car. This is a new car we bought. My driver's license was just obtained last day."

Luo Yue sat in the passenger seat and said, "We have already sold private cars? The development speed is really not slow."

Zhou Weiying started the car, slowly drove away from the Military Commission, turned onto the road, and said, "Yes, not long after you left, Liu Gao's company launched a private car for sale. He ordered one at home. After I got the driver's license, I picked up the car. It was much more convenient to have a car at home." After a pause, he said, "If you come back this time, buy another one. Anyway, when your father comes back, you also need to use another car."

Luo Yue looked at the structure layout of the car. Compared with the old time and space, the structure in the car was of course much simpler and there were not so many instruments, but Bijing was a real car. Although in the old time and space, family cars were no longer rare, Luo Yue had never bought a car. Bijing graduated from military academy and served in the army and had no time to buy a car at all. In the old time and space, Qin Zheng bought a car at home, but most of it was Zhou Ping who drove it, because Zhou Weiying was still young at that time and was only 20 years old. Her family was very strict with her and she was not allowed to drive. Qin Zheng spent most of the year with warships to carry out missions overseas, and there were not many opportunities to drive. But in this era, this goal was achieved.
