Chapter 164 Appointment of the Headquarters(2/2)
"yes."
Nuo Xia took the file, opened it, and immediately raised her eyebrows slightly.
The first page is the formal appointment letter, and the position assigned to him is "Major General Deputy Base Commander" of "Xihai First Branch".
This is a little weird.
In branch bases all over the world, the highest officer is usually a colonel. For more important bases, having a brigadier general is the most important thing.
Moreover, the rank of brigadier general would be three levels lower in Marineland, which is roughly equivalent to a major in the headquarters.
When did a dignified major general from the headquarters, who was transferred to a base like this, only serve as deputy base commander?
"The situation in the West China Sea is complex, with rampant pirates and rampant underground organizations. As the largest branch in the West China Sea, the First Branch has a special situation."
Kong saw Nuo Xia's surprise, smiled and explained:
"Not only does it have a scale of more than 3,000 soldiers, it is the only one among the branches in the world, and the fifteen surrounding branches all obey the orders of the first branch."
"So according to the practice in previous years, the first branch base in Xihai will have at least one major general from the headquarters."
Kong looked at Nuo Xia and said, "This is a big responsibility. Why, do you still think this position is too condescending for you?"
"I don't feel like I'm giving in. It's just that there aren't many powerful guys in Xihai, so it's a bit boring to stay there..." Nuo Xia scratched his head and told the truth, "And why do I have an immediate boss? I always feel a little uncomfortable.
"
If it weren't for his lack of qualifications, with his military exploits and strength, he would be more than enough to serve as a lieutenant general in the headquarters.
Isn't the headquarters worried that the major general who serves as the base commander will be outshone in prestige and popularity and will be under a lot of pressure all day long?
"I want a strong man like you to go to the West China Sea because I hope you can show your strength and clean out the pirate groups and underground forces that are causing trouble there. There are so many things to do, how can it be boring?"
Kong seemed to remember something and shook his head, "As for your immediate boss... don't worry, I believe that once we meet, you will no longer have any objections to the arrangements of the headquarters, and maybe you will be grateful."
Where is I?"
What does this mean?
Nuo Xia was at a loss and was about to ask clearly. Kong already smiled with a mysterious look on his face and waved his hand, asking the adjutant to see the guest off.
Is it true that the higher your status, the more you like to be the Riddler? He smiled and said goodbye to the blushing female adjutant. Nuo Xia held the appointment document and walked downstairs along the corridor, muttering in his heart.
When they arrived at the door, the noon sun was shining directly, which was quite dazzling. Nuo Xia subconsciously took two steps back and decided to wait for Taotu in the corridor behind the door.
"Um?"
He looked around boredly and suddenly found a large bouquet of roses on the lid of the trash can behind the door.
At least they are of the same quality as the ninety-nine flowers. The petals are bright red and there is still dew on them. They are quite beautiful.
Who would just throw away such a beautiful flower?
What a waste of resources.
"If you fail to pursue a girl, you can't waste it..."
Nuo Xia picked it up, walked around and looked at it carefully.
Just when it was a pity, the sound of footsteps suddenly came to my ears.
He looked up and saw Taotu, who had just come downstairs, standing at the entrance of the corridor, looking at him with surprise on his face.
"Okay, kid, you even know how to buy roses secretly."
She took the rose from Nuo Xia's hand, lowered her head and sniffed it gently, with a look of joy on her face, "It's of high quality and it's been done with care. I'm really touched."
"..."
Nuo Xia's eyes twitched, but in the end he didn't choose to reveal it, and laughed dryly, "As long as you like it, Brigadier."
"Did you get the appointment letter?"
Taotu accepted the bouquet with satisfaction and looked at the documents in his arms.
"Um."
Nuo Xia handed it over and sighed, "The deputy base commander of the first branch of Xihai is a bit far away. I don't know when he will be transferred back to the headquarters. Brigadier General, it seems that we have to be separated for a while."
It's really hard to let go.
"Yeah?"
Taotu did not open the document, but just threw his appointment letter over, with a sly smile on his pretty face, "Why don't you take a look at mine again?"
Eh?
Nuo Xia subconsciously took it, opened the appointment letter and looked at it, and her eyes suddenly became as big as light bulbs.
Below the title, there is this line of text.
"The former Major General Gion is hereby appointed to be transferred to Saikai as Major General Base Commander of the 1st Saikai Branch. He will coordinate and coordinate the 12 Saikai Branches, 13 Branches and other 15 Saikai Branches. This appointment will take effect from the date of issuance of the document."
"October 28, 1501 in the Haiyuan calendar"
"Marshal Sora (Seal)"
…
this moment.
Nuo Xia finally understood what the faint smile on Cyborg Kong's face before leaving the marshal's office contained.
"I see."
He looked at the smiling Taotu and couldn't help but sigh, "Brigadier General, did you already know this?"
"certainly."
Taotu snapped her fingers and said with a smile, "Do you still remember what I told you before you went to take the desert island assessment? After knowing that you were about to graduate, Sister He went to see Marshal Kong and asked him to postpone it.
I will try my best to arrange my appointment together after you graduate, and Marshal Kong also agreed."
Okay, so when you were at the dining table this morning, were you acting with me?
"It's really troublesome for her. Please remember to say thank you to her for me later."
Nuo Xia looked at the little rabbit speechlessly and sighed, "Speaking of which, does this count as seeking public benefit for personal gain? Brigadier General..."
"You get a bargain but still behave well."
A faint voice came from the side. Crane held the tea cup. After glancing at him, he passed by like a ghost, "Don't think about the things that are there and don't have them. Just go to the West Sea and do your duty and do your part."
Why are you eavesdropping again...
Nuo Xia's face hurt, thinking of the previous Garp Warring States period... What was wrong with the legendary navy bosses of your old era? Why did they always appear when I was talking nonsense!
Damn it, what a coincidence!
"It's just time to get off work."
As if sensing Nuo Xia's gaze, He Youran's voice came from outside the door:
"It's noon. I went downstairs to the cafeteria to have a meal. I happened to meet you at the door. It's very reasonable, right?"
Nuo Xia: "..."
——————
The next day.
A small to medium-sized ordinary warship departed from the port of Marinefando and headed for the East China Sea.
There were not many sailors on board, only twenty or thirty people. After all, this ship was specially transferred by the headquarters to Nuo Xia to visit his relatives in his hometown, so there was no need to be too ostentatious.
Nuo Xia held a fishing rod in his hand and sat at the stern of the boat, facing the sparkling sea. After blowing the sea breeze for a long time, his originally groggy brain slowly woke up.
"My head still hurts a little."
He rubbed his temples and thought in his mind, "How much wine did you drink last night... I can't remember exactly, it must be at least a dozen kilograms, right?"
As a self-disciplined nineteen-year-old boy, Nuo Xia basically doesn't drink. Occasionally, when he's in a bad mood, he will have a few drinks to keep himself in a just the right state of tipsiness.
There is only one reason why he almost stopped drinking this time, and that is that he returned to the elite camp yesterday and made a special trip to say goodbye to the recruits who had been with him for a year and a half, as well as the instructors.
Probably because of his spiritual leader, the cohesion among this new recruit camp is surprisingly high.
Everyone was quite reluctant to see him graduate early and leave. Some girls even cried so hard that their eyes were red and they tugged on his sleeves to not let him leave.
The instructors did the same thing, which moved Nuo Xia quite a bit. However, later on, when some evil person proposed a farewell party, things started to go wrong.
Obviously both he and Xiliu were present, but he was the only one being crowded around by instructors from all walks of life, trying to stop them from drinking. When he got drunk, he could vaguely see some instructors with gnashing teeth and distorted faces.
Brandon, with his green cockscomb hair, even secretly changed his cup to an extra-large size, and then showed a smile as if his scheming was succeeding...
Damn it, these old men are clearly out to avenge themselves!
"When I have time later, I must practice my drinking ability."
Nuo Xia threw the fishing rod into the sea and said angrily in his heart, "When I return to the elite camp, I will kill you all one by one!"

I showed the titles of your books to the editor. The editor was silent for a long time, and then sent me a two-thorned ape emoticon holding hands, "——laughing to death, I thought your book title was enough, but I didn’t expect your readers.
