Chapter 1129 Zhao Yunting's Promotion
Regarding practical applications, Li Mo'er has enough warships within his space to conduct thorough research.
Therefore, Zhao Yunting's grades have always been at the top of the school.
In six months, he could have completely skipped school and focused on getting to know the crew on the aircraft carrier.
I just need to come back to take an exam when I'm about to graduate, and then I can get my graduation certificate.
Time passed day by day, and before they knew it, it was July 10, 1980. At 4:30 in the morning, Zhao Yunting drove to the Prince Gong's Mansion.
Li Mo'er had gotten up early and was washing up when the chef prepared breakfast.
Upon seeing Zhao Yunting arrive, Li Mo'er quickly invited him to come and eat.
After breakfast, the two flew the helicopter to Beitang Town in Jinshi City.
The mouth of the Chaobai River is located here. Ever since Li Mo'er built this aircraft carrier and other warships, the country has started to develop the Chaobai River, deepening and widening it, and building stone retaining walls on both banks.
Around six o'clock, the two arrived at the Beitang Town Wharf, where the aircraft carrier was quietly docked.
Upon seeing the helicopter, a group of soldiers immediately became alert and quickly approached it with their weapons at the ready.
Zhao Yunting stopped the helicopter and jumped down. The soldiers saw that he was a young man in a brand-new military uniform that was crisp and fit him perfectly.
Looking at the shoulder insignia, the soldiers were all astonished. So young and already a regimental commander! It's true what they say, comparisons are odious!
The squad leader quickly ordered the soldiers to put down their weapons. At that moment, Li Mo'er, dressed in military uniform, jumped out of the passenger seat. The soldiers were shocked again. This heroic and incredibly beautiful woman was actually the deputy regimental commander.
The squad leader saluted and said, "Reporting, sir, are you here to attend the aircraft carrier commissioning ceremony?"
Zhao Yunting nodded and said, "Yes."
The squad leader pointed to a row of small buildings not far away and said, "Please go into the barracks and wait. The formal induction ceremony will begin at eight o'clock."
Zhao Yunting and Li Mo'er nodded and turned to walk towards the row of small buildings.
The two had just arrived at the small building and hadn't even sat down for a short while when an officer came over. Judging from his shoulder insignia, he was a battalion commander. He said to Zhao Yunting, "Excuse me, are you Regiment Commander Zhao Yunting?"
Zhao Yunting nodded and said, "I am Zhao Yunting. May I ask what brings you here?"
The battalion commander said, "Commander Feng of the South China Sea Fleet invites you two to the conference room. Please follow me."
Zhao Yunting and Li Mo'er followed the battalion commander to a conference room where Commander Feng and Political Commissar Kong were sitting, along with a large group of officers from various military regions and fleets.
Commander Feng laughed heartily and said, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Li Mo'er asked, "When did Commander Feng and Political Commissar Kong arrive? It didn't take long."
Commander Feng said, "We arrived in Beijing yesterday afternoon for a meeting and just came from there. There's a procedure we need to plan ahead."
Then he stood up straight and said, "Captain Zhao Yunting of the South China Sea Fleet, listen to my command."
Zhao Yunting quickly stood up straight. Political Commissar Kong handed over a red "Military Rank Order". Commander Feng took it, opened it, and read: "In view of Comrade Zhao Yunting's excellent work style, superb skills, and courage to fight, and with the decision and deployment of the Party Central Committee, Zhao Yunting is hereby appointed as the captain of my country's first aircraft carrier, the Yue Dong ship."
A fleeting look of surprise crossed Zhao Yunting's face, and he gave a solemn salute.
Commander Feng then said, "Zhao Yunting, captain of the aircraft carrier Yue Dong of the South China Sea Fleet, listen to my command!"
Zhao Yunting held the "Military Rank Order" to his chest with both hands, and stood up straight again.
Commander Feng took another red notebook from Political Commissar Kong, opened it and read aloud: "Zhao Yunting, the newly appointed captain of the aircraft carrier Yue Dong of the South China Sea Fleet, has been promoted to deputy brigade commander after deliberation by the South China Sea Fleet Command due to his outstanding performance during his tenure, his excellent work style, and his courage and determination. We hope that you will continue your efforts and make new contributions!"
Zhao Yunting accepted the "Military Rank Order" with both hands again, saluted once more, and replied, "Yes, sir! I will certainly not let down the expectations of the motherland and the people!"
Then, holding two rank insignia in his hands, he faced the large group of officers below and saluted.
The group of officers below applauded enthusiastically, their eyes filled with envy.
