After entering the barracks, Hu Mingchen learned from the propaganda wall that Qiangzi's real name is Pei Qiang, and he is the captain of the Mountain Wolf Commando, and the camp they have entered is the station of the Mountain Wolf Commando.

The Mountain Wolf Commando is a battalion, but in fact there are only two companies, and of course, there is also about a platoon of logistics personnel.

Pei Qiang still takes good care of Hu Mingchen, and the accommodation he arranged for Hu Mingchen is a single room, located in the innermost part of the corridor on the second floor.

After arranging the accommodation, Pei Qiang took Hu Mingchen and Song Qiaoshan to the canteen to eat.

It was only in the cafeteria that Hu Mingchen clearly felt the signs that Song Qiaoshan had been a soldier here.

"Captain Song, Captain Song, hey, I haven't seen you for a long time, where have you developed now?" The master in charge of the kitchen looked very excited when he saw Song Qiaoshan.

"Master Liang, hello, I went to work in Liangcheng, I haven't eaten the food you cooked for a long time, I miss it. Song Qiaoshan greeted the chef warmly.

"Oh, I heard that you are a professional in the place, but we don't know where it is. Liangcheng is not far away, it's only a four-and-a-half-hour train, if you really like to eat the food I make, then you can come and see us old fellows at any time. ”

As he spoke, Master Liang took a stainless steel fast food plate, twisted up a big spoon and cooked for him, and finally added two large steamed buns in addition to six taels of rice next to him.

"Master Liang, I can't eat so much, I can't eat so much now, just ask for one steamed bun. Song Qiaoshan hurriedly said.

"Oh, then put one, I still remember, you didn't have a meal of six taels and two steamed buns before, hehe, it seems that there is really a big difference between the place and the army, and your amount of food has been greatly reduced. After Master Liang took a steamed bun, he smiled and handed the plate to Song Qiaoshan.

"Local work is not as sporty. Actually, I've always wanted to come and see everyone, but I'm busy with work, and besides, the army can't come in at any time. Well, this meal smells fragrant, if it weren't for your craftsmanship today, I wouldn't even want this steamed bun. Song Qiaoshan sniffed with a plate.

"Hehe, hey, Captain Song, is this your child?" Master Liang pointed at Hu Mingchen and asked curiously.

"No, no, Master Liang, you misunderstood, mine is a girl, this is my ...... Apprentice, it's summer vacation, take him to the barracks to exercise. Song Qiaoshan hurriedly explained.

"Master Liang, in the future, he will also eat in us, and the food expenses have been handed over to the political commissar. Pei Qiang added.

"Oh, I see, okay, young man, what are you going to eat?" Master Liang said suddenly.

"Thank you, Master Liang, whatever my master eats, you can give me whatever you want, thank you. Hu Mingchen said politely.

"Hehe, good, good, worthy of being a master and apprentice, even the food is the same, Captain Pei, what about you, what are you eating today?"

"I want shredded radish meat, tomatoes and eggs, and a bowl of three fresh soups, no rice, just give me three steamed buns. Pei Qiang said.

The food of the mountain wolf commando is still good, in addition to the three dishes that Pei Qiang wanted, in fact, there are two dishes in the vegetable pot, potato ribs and fungus shredded meat.

After Hu Mingchen and the three of them finished eating, they went to the table next to them and sat down to eat.

"Brother Qiang, just now you said the food expenses, I seem to remember that I haven't paid the food expenses yet, how much is it, you say, I'll give it to you when I go back, and you help me pay it." After sitting down, Hu Mingchen asked Pei Qiangdao.

"Brother Shan has already handed it over for you, so you don't have to worry about it. Pei Qiang took a bite of the steamed bun and said.

"The food and clothing used by the soldiers are all provided by the state, and you are not a member of the establishment, so you have to pay a certain amount of food and other miscellaneous expenses, and arranging for you to come in for training is not very in accordance with the rules, and we cannot take advantage of the state. Song Qiaoshan ate two bites of food and explained.

"I also know that I can't take advantage of the country, so I should pay the money, master, how much, I'll give it to you." Hu Mingchen said.

"I said what are you doing so hard, are you very rich? Brother Shan has a job, has a salary, helps you pay some living expenses, and you still calculate with him so clearly, and make so much money. Pei Qiang took a sip of Sanxian soup and said.

"Don't say it, he's richer than me. Song Qiaoshan said vaguely as he ate.

"Huh?" Pei Qiang looked at Song Qiaoshan and Hu Mingchen suspiciously, a little unsure of what he meant.

Although Song Qiaoshan didn't say anything more, Hu Mingchen stopped submitting the matter of living expenses and began to bury his head in eating.

Hu Mingchen found that he ate fast at home, but in front of Song Qiaoshan and Pei Qiang, he was simply a crushed character. Although the two of them were also talking, the action of eating did not stop. After chatting for a while, the things on Hu Mingchen's plate hadn't moved much, and more than half of the two of them had been wiped out. made Hu Mingchen have to hurriedly gobble up after him, if they all finished eating, and he still had a bunch left, it would be too embarrassing.

After eating, Hu Mingchen went back to the dormitory to change clothes, and Pei Qiang took Song Qiaoshan to chat with the political commissar. They are all old comrades-in-arms, and since Song Qiaoshan has entered the barracks again, it seems inappropriate to leave without meeting his comrades-in-arms.

In the closet of Hu Mingchen's dormitory, there are two sets of camouflage training clothes, which are his daily clothes during the holidays.

Hu Mingchen took off his regular clothes, lifted a set of camouflage uniforms and shook them open, only to find that there were army green socks, shorts and T-shirts inside.

This is too complete, Hu Mingchen wore the military uniform of the army from head to toe for the first time, and he was still a little excited in his heart.

Hu Mingchen continued to strip himself naked, and then began to change clothes from his underwear.

This kind of clothing supplied by the regular army is better than the ones sold in the night market stalls outside, and the feeling of fit and comfort after wearing it is quite good, the only drawback is that both the clothes and the pants are larger, and they don't fit so well.

Hu Mingchen stood in front of the mirror, pulled his clothes, and pulled his pants, a little bit of the funny feeling of Sanmao being a soldier. Still, he solemnly straightened his military hat and made himself look like that as much as possible.

Although Hu Mingchen's body is a regular product supplied by the army, it is still slightly different from what others wear, for example, Hu Mingchen's hat does not have a military badge, for example, there is no mark on his clothes.

"The sunset is red and the sun is flying, and the soldiers shoot targets and return the camp to ......" Suddenly, a majestic and loud singing voice came from outside the window.

Hu Mingchen was curious, ran to the window and looked down, and saw that the two columns were walking from a distance with vigorous steps.

Each of them was in high spirits and singing loudly, but Hu Mingchen looked closely and saw that many of their clothes were muddy from top to bottom.

"This is the soldier of the republic, this is the backbone of the republic, and he has maintained his true character as a soldier at all times and at all times. Hu Mingchen sincerely admired them in his heart, and involuntarily raised his right hand and saluted them with a military salute that was not standard.

At this moment, the chief who was walking next to him looked up and saw Hu Mingchen by the window.

"Look to the right and salute. As soon as the chief commanded, he himself took the lead and raised his right hand in the direction where Hu Mingchen was standing.

The others didn't figure out what was going on, but the order had been given, and they had to obey, and the two columns of teams turned their heads towards Hu Mingchen in unison, and raised their hands neatly to salute him.

So many people solemnly returned the salute to Hu Mingchen, which startled him, and hurriedly retreated, avoiding the other party's gaze.

Hu Mingchen didn't expect that his unintentional actions would be so respected, he was not a soldier himself, he felt weak, but his heart was fierce.

"Knock knock knock......" Hu Mingchen patted his chest to calm himself down, and suddenly there was a knock on the door behind him, Hu Mingchen was clever and hurriedly ran over to open the door.

"Hehe, it still looks like that, it's just a little smaller, and you can't hold up your clothes completely. As soon as the door opened, Pei Qiang first glanced Hu Mingchen up and down, and then commented with a smile.

"What's wrong with you, why do you look like you have a strange expression?" Song Qiaoshan saw that Hu Mingchen's expression was not very natural, and asked suspiciously.

"Not really, but just now I saw a group of soldiers coming downstairs, and I was curious, so I ...... The ghost sent them a salute, who knows, when they were discovered, they actually saluted me, and I am not a soldier, so ...... I was empty-hearted, and of course, I was very excited. Hu Mingchen explained hesitantly.

"I thought what was the matter, although you are not a soldier, and you are not qualified to join the army, but when you wear this military uniform, you have to treat yourself strictly according to the requirements of the soldiers...... You should regard your salute as a Young Pioneer salute. Hehe, Brother Shan, you can talk a few words, I'll wait for you at the parking lot. Pei Qiang patted Hu Mingchen on the shoulder and said a few words, then greeted Song Qiaoshan.

Song Qiaoshan nodded, and Pei Qiang went out first.

Hu Mingchen was very depressed, what is it like, how did you get the Young Pioneers' salute? Do you want to treat me as a soldier or a Young Pioneer?

"Xiao Chen, during this time, you can stay inside and follow Pei Qiang, and when school is about to start, I will pick you up again. Pei Qiang is usually very easy-going, but he is a very strict person, you will have a hard time during this time, but I hope you can hold on. As long as you can make it through, you'll be completely different from before. Song Qiaoshan confessed.

"Master, don't worry, I'm not a person who is afraid of hardship. I know that only by being strict and tempered can I strengthen myself and learn real skills. I can do it, no matter what, I won't disgrace you. Hu Mingchen raised his head with his chest straightened and assured.

"Okay, that's good. Saying that, Song Qiaoshan lightly punched Hu Mingchen's chest to show encouragement and affirmation.
