Chapter Forty-Nine: Competition among Recruits

Wang Chunlin was not to be left behind, this cultural recruit who came out of school, he knew that he could not compare with Zhou Chunlin and Dong Guilai, who were born as peasants, in military training, so he found his own world in the world of political study. In addition to eating, sleeping, and practicing, he spent almost all of his time studying politics. His spirit of hard work soon touched others and made the squad leader happy. After he truthfully reported Wang Chunlin's deeds to the company headquarters, the deputy instructor Feng of the company headquarters quickly talked to him and praised and reported his deeds to the whole company. This made the squad leader very excited for a few days, and one squad produced two famous shooters of the whole company, and also produced a model of political study in the whole company, which was a good thing he did not expect.

Live shooting, that is the most critical moment, Lian Li wants to evaluate a new shooting expert with the highest score, and it seems that there are only two opponents in the duel, Dong Guilai and Zhou Chunlin. Although the training performance of both of them is usually very difficult, the only time to show value is at this moment to show their talents. The squad leader lay down, and the two of them fell to the ground at the same time almost without a millimeter, and their speed, neatness, and graceful posture were not comparable to ordinary people. The squad leader whistled, and two green targets were accurately measured in front of him. The squad leader shouted "Ready--go!" I only heard the sound of thumping rifle shots coming out continuously and methodically, and the sound was misjudged to be shot from a man's rifle. The gun fell, the whistle sounded, and the target 100 meters ahead of it fell, and the number reported by the target reporter was astonishing: the two people actually played the same number of rings, both of which were 98 rings high!

In the contest again, Dong Guilai lost one point, and that link was on the line of the two score lines. Although Fenxiao saw it, Dong Guilai was very depressed in his heart, he shook hands with Zhou Chunlin on the surface, but he was unconvinced in his heart.

As long as a person is good at seizing opportunities, there will always be luck. Those recruits who could not excel in political study or achieve good results in military training began to work hard in doing good deeds and worked cleaning, and were repeatedly praised by the company commander.

Many recruits followed suit, and a broom with only one toilet was often snatched up by two people, and even the old and exemplary Zhou Dayuan often threw himself into the air. The radio of the recruit company had to broadcast the news of the recruits cleaning the toilets almost every day. However, this kind of news did not last long, and I don't know who put the broom away, and whenever someone wanted to do that kind of good person and good deed, there was no broom in the toilet. However, almost no one saw anyone sweep the toilet, which was cleaned every morning. It was clear that the toilet had been cleaned by the man who had collected the broom.

One night, Chen Hansheng had a stomachache, went to the toilet in the middle of the night, and was pulling to a pleasant place, when a black shadow who was not a ghost broke in recklessly, and when he saw someone, he immediately ran out, although it was in the dark night, Chen Hansheng still saw that the person was Zhou Dayuan.

Chen Hansheng was puzzled by Zhou Dayuan's behavior, and only felt that doing something good alone was a kind of cultivation, but there was no need to pursue it like this.

The next day, everyone went to the cafeteria to eat, and some people began to read reports, vigorously praising this kind of good people and good deeds of being unsung heroes. Then, the reports from the various classes rushed up, praising this act of being an unsung hero. Even the radio studio has stirred up this matter, in today's words. As a result, an unsung hero who could not be known to everyone was born in the recruit company.

Although Chen Hansheng disagreed with this kind of thing of grabbing a broom in the middle of the night, he couldn't have any bad opinion about this kind of thing.

Soon, some recruits who wanted to do good things complained about this broom-snatching, and there was a good-natured criticism of the incident on the radio during the meal. The person who wrote this kind criticism draft was none other than Wang Chunlin, a pacesetter in learning. Within a few days, the man who collected the broom had to take it out again.

Although the broom problem was properly solved, Zhou Dayuan's reputation as an unsung hero did not go away, and Zhou Dayuan's reputation became great and he reported to the headquarters of the military station. The headquarters sent someone down to implement the matter and wrote Zhou Dayuan's name. Zhou Daqi immediately became a big celebrity in the whole company and even 485, and he had the potential to overpower Zhou Chunlin and Wang Chunlin.

Although Chen Hansheng did not like to speak first in political study, nor did he like to be in the limelight, his black version of the newspaper was particularly prominent, and even became the object of study for the whole company. Instructor Wang praised him at the conference and organized visits to each class.

With the deepening of the political movement, Chen Hansheng was selected by 485 as a talent in painting, and participated in the painting work of a comic book exhibition. After completing the mission and returning to the company, Chen Hansheng's influence was once again spread. Some people even concluded that Chen Hansheng would be a target for promotion sooner or later.

At this critical moment, Chen Hansheng's second uncle, Chen Huafu, got off the bus here on the way back to the army, and personally took him to the unit, met with Instructor Wang, and talked about Chen Hansheng's situation. Instructor Wang said to Chen Huafu, "He has a lot of specialties, but his political performance is not very prominent. ”

As a company-level instructor of the unit, Chen Huafu naturally understood what Instructor Wang meant, and when he was leaving, he specially reminded Chen Hansheng, "Hansheng! The head of the unit has a good impression of you! But you should take the initiative to actively pursue political progress. ”

Chen Hansheng just smiled and didn't take it to heart.

After the second uncle left, Chen Hansheng continued to seize the time to practice the piano, and at the same time do his own performance, he was busy between the company and the propaganda team, not only completed the performance task, but also earned honor for the company, although he inadvertently offended people, but also made many chiefs like him.

Zhou Dayuan secretly competed, he not only wrapped up the toilet hygiene of the company, but also did a very good job in housekeeping, especially his quilt, which was folded more than the squad leader.

Just when everyone was secretly competing, Wang Chunlin was selected to participate in the political study training because of his outstanding political study.

Wang Chunlin's straight rise suddenly hit Zhou Dayuan's enthusiasm. Zhou Dayuan is not afraid of anything, just afraid of political study. He just sat there, and after ten minutes he was going to doze off and drool. I don't know how many times the squad leader has criticized him for this, and he himself is very distressed about this aspect, but there is no way to correct it. When he really couldn't do it, he also listened to other people's opinions and put the chili pepper in his mouth and bit it. But he was not afraid of spicy food, but he quickly adapted to the spicy taste, but the result still did not solve the problem. Once, the whole 485 held a meeting in the auditorium, he snored like thunder, alarming Officer Zhu of the Political Department, Officer Zhu woke him up, and asked him to speak at the meeting, he said that Kong Lao Er was a person in the Three Kingdoms era, said that Kong Lao Er was a businessman, selling goods everywhere, and made everyone who heard it laugh, and since then he has carried a bad reputation for not studying well, and swept away his achievements of how many times he has swept the toilet and how many times he has been an unsung hero.

At the same time, Zhou Chunlin was also unprecedentedly snubbed. Although the military training is still persistently carried out, the training results are the best, and they cannot become the big celebrities of the company. Although the target shooting was still scored, it was only an honor for a moment at that time, and it was quickly forgotten. Zhou Chunlin's hard work to win the first place in the company's shooting and bomb throwing not only did not receive the company's attention, but he was also criticized by some cadres because he always lagged behind others in his political studies, and he was even criticized by name at the meeting, saying that he was a soldier who only understood military affairs and did not understand politics, and that he was not a good soldier armed with good ideas. If this tendency develops, it is quite possible that the class enemy will lead the way!

Zhou Chunlin was stunned, and he also began to study politics seriously. However, no matter how hard Zhou Chunlin, who is only in the second grade of primary school, he can't catch up with Wang Chunlin. is Dong Guilai, who graduated from high school, he is very good in both aspects and has won praise from many people. Dong Guilai has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, dragon eyebrows and big eyes, is handsome and handsome, and is born with an official appearance, plus he has a high level of education, good political study performance, and a good handwriting, can endure hardships in military training, and has excellent military skills. Although he can't surpass Wang Chunlin in terms of literature, and he is not as good as Zhou Chunlin in terms of martial arts, he has the advantage of both, which is in line with the golden mean that Kong Lao Er said.

Not long after, some changes began to take place in the troops, and military training gradually received attention, saying that the international situation was very tense and that it was necessary to be ready for war at all times. After the team was disbanded, Zhou Chunlin was sent to the military station for training. On the day when Zhou Chunlin was leaving, the small car of the division headquarters first sent Wang Chunlin back, and then took Zhou Chunlin there. When Wang Chunlin was getting out of the car, Zhou Chunlin happened to get into the car, and the two of them went up and down in front of the car, in and out, giving the soldiers of the whole company a feeling that you are acting and I am on the stage.

On the second day after Zhou Chunlin arrived at the division headquarters, everyone sat in front of and behind the barracks as soon as they were free, and guessed who would be promoted between Wang Chunlin and Zhou Chunlin. Half of the people thought that Wang Chunlin would mention it because Wang Chunlin had a high level of theory and was good at studying politics. The other half of the people were opposed, saying that Wang Chunlin's military training performance was too poor, and he almost lost his life by throwing a grenade, and that he must have only become popular temporarily. Zhou Chunlin's military training achievements were already excellent, and when he went to the military station for training, he must have been a top-notch figure in the whole company. At that time, Zhou Chunlin might still have the possibility of entering a military academy. Everyone has different opinions, they have seen each other, they do not give in to each other, and they are red-faced.

Chen Hansheng, who was already obsessed with the violin, was not interested in this matter, and carried the violin to the small room to practice whenever he had time.

When Chen Hansheng finished playing the Kaisai etude and was about to enter the song practice that was no longer boring, Yang Xiaofeng, who was illiterate, asked someone to write a letter urging him about political progress.
