In order to embody the concept of unification of the whole battalion, the battalion instructor did not let the companies withdraw from the artillery range, but unexpectedly announced that they would be "disbanded!" on the spot.

"Hey, Wenhua Wenhua, come here!" Feng Menglong came to me immediately after the team disbanded.

"Platoon Commander Feng, is there something wrong?" I saw him greet me, and hurriedly greeted him, this kid is usually very good, and he likes to ignore people when he sees him. Now I don't know why you took the initiative to come to me?

"Wenhua, just now I saw that you led your troops to pass by the icey ground, why didn't any of you fall?"

"Platoon Commander Feng, look at the soles of my shoes. "I immediately showed him the soles of my shoes. It turned out that in order to practice, squad leader Han specially received a pair of non-slip shoes for me from the warehouse of the logistics department. Of course, Feng Menglong didn't know this secret.

"You're non-slip shoes. Aren't those warriors all of them?" Feng Menglong was still skeptical.

"Platoon Commander Feng, we walked in unison when we passed by, and you walked in a positive step when you passed by, and the weight of your feet was different. The effect is different. ”

"Hmm. Maybe!" Feng Menglong didn't fully agree with my statement, but he couldn't say any other reason, so he had to nod his head and say yes.

"Platoon Commander Feng, it's the Chinese New Year, are you going back to Beijing to visit relatives?" I saw that the other party had nothing to say, so I came to a homely sentence.

"Nope. I just went back to Beijing for the National Day. Mom and Dad went to my sister's house in Hainan. When I got home, there was no one to see. Feng Menglong said this, a little sad.

"Look at my girlfriend!" I joked.

"My girlfriend doesn't need me to watch it, and she lives a more comfortable life than me. Feng Menglong didn't know whether to tell the truth or deal with me, so he said in a matter-of-fact manner:

She is now the president of the company, and her subordinates revolve around her all day long. Singing and dancing are leveling, and socializing continues. Compared to the ascetics of our company cadres, it is simply a fairy-like day. Soldiers, bitter!"

"Haha, we, who are from ordinary families, have chosen this path, and there is no way! Why did you, a royal prince and nobleman, come to this ravine?" I wanted to find out if he dared to tell the truth to himself.

"Haha, it's not because of my grandfather?" Feng Menglong didn't want to hide any facts from me, "That old man is an extreme Marxist-Leninist and Mao Zedong ideological supporter and practitioner. In his eyes, the tide of market economy will only corrode our next generation.

He strongly advocated that young people should go to the front line of state-owned enterprises or the vast world of rural areas to exercise. However, the current state-owned enterprises have been restructured into privatization;

The collective economy in the countryside also collapsed. There was no way, so the old man had to send me to the hardcore public unit of the army for training. Hehe......"

"It makes sense for the old man to think so. I would even agree with the extreme thinking of the old man of his family, "Like you, the second generation of officials with superior conditions, instead of being a son and brother in the capital, it is better to come to this barracks and fight and fight, at least, it is a training for your will." ”

"Hehe, the main reason why I was able to stay here with great interest was that I could see the situation at the bottom of Chinese society......" Feng Menglong talked seriously when he met me, so he lengthened the topic.

"The bottom?"

"yes. The soldiers of the company are all from ordinary civilian families. Every family is the truest microcosm of Chinese society.

"Besides, isn't our company also the most basic unit of the army? It is these living low-level lives that attract me. As for willpower or anything, I don't feel it. ”

"In that case, what special feelings do you have for us at the bottom?" I asked him.

"Haha, how can I say it? I feel that the bottom of Chinese society is not as heavenly as the media and unscrupulous artists in the capital boast of.

"What 'every day is a good day' and what 'getting better and better', but it's not as dark as those villains slander. Happiness and suffering should be at the same time. Hehe......"

"Feng Menglong, you're right, now the lives of ordinary people have indeed reached the level of living and working in peace and contentment. But once it's done, it's bad!

"For example, if someone in the family is seriously ill, if there are children going to school, if there is a wedding, if there is a funeral, if there is a natural disaster, the people will be miserable. ”

"Yes, yes. Feng Menglong and I felt the same way: "You ask the soldiers in the company, why did they come to serve as soldiers? Didn't they cherish the dream of becoming a soldier and looking for an opportunity to live in the system, and wanted to provide a guarantee? The biggest drawback in Chinese society is that the support mechanism is not perfect. ”

"Platoon leader, it's time to eat!" was chatting enthusiastically, when suddenly someone called me, and at first glance, it was the company correspondent Lingbao who reminded me to have breakfast.

"Alright, alright, eat. Wenhua, if you have time to play with me, let's have a good chat. When Feng Menglong said this, he politely shook hands with me and said goodbye.

I went to the cafeteria and saw two dishes on the table. Usually breakfast, it is steamed buns, porridge, and small pickles. Maybe it's because the New Year is approaching, and the company's food is getting better and better, right?

"Platoon commander, just now the secretary said that we won the winning unit of the drill, and the cooking class only stir-fried. At this time, Liu Haidong next to me reminded me.

"Oh, yes? Thank you, brothers. I said casually, thinking, isn't it just a good winner, worthy of so much attention?

Just as I was about to pick up the steamed buns to eat, I saw the correspondent Lingbao come over with a bowl and said to me with a smile: "A long line, the instructor is invited!" I hurriedly brought the bowl to the company's dining table.

"Instructor, are you looking for me?" I sat down next to the instructor.

"Well, Wenhua, congratulations on winning the winning unit and winning glory for us. The instructor came up and gave a polite look at it.

"Nothing, it should be done. I smiled and thought to myself, the instructor would definitely not come to congratulate me just to congratulate me.

"Wenhua, what did you talk to Feng Menglong about just now......?"

"Didn't talk about anything?" I felt that the instructor was a little bit of a censor of himself, and I felt very uncomfortable.

"I didn't talk about anything, why did I talk for so long?" "The instructor didn't want me to be sloppy.

Haha, chatted about his family situation. "I think that since this instructor wants to know about his chat with Feng Menglong, he will not let himself go easily, so he has to tell the truth.

"Did he say anything, did he brag about his father?" asked the instructor.

"Nope. He said about his grandfather, an old revolutionary. I replied.
