Chapter 41: The Journey

When the train said goodbye to Kyoto Castle for good, many recruits came out of the oppressive atmosphere. After all, they are all seventeen or eighteen young men, and emotions come and go quickly.

Most of them are teenagers who have never left home. I am full of hope for my future. What an honorable thing it is to 'enlist' in the army.

They all have a lot of blood, and they can throw their heads and spill blood for the motherland!

If they make meritorious contributions to the motherland, they will become heroic figures! But are they really ready for the arduous training in the future? Do they really understand the cruelty of war?

Shanwa didn't talk to people she knew like everyone else, to talk about her ideals or dreams.

Sitting next to Shanwa was Yang Gang from a village, Yang Gang originally wanted to chat with Shanwa, but seeing that Shanwa didn't seem to want to talk, he didn't say anything.

He's a smart guy who knows how to advance and retreat. In addition to the clothes and luggage issued by the army, Shanwa also brought a travel bag for herself.

The travel bag of this era was hand-held, called canvas at that time, and in Shanwa's opinion, it was a bit similar to the fabric of jeans in later generations, but it was much thicker than it. It's rough, but it's pretty strong.

The mountain doll also comes with a small lock. There are 5 'China' in it, 2,000 yuan, and there is; Shanwa's baby camera film.

Before leaving, Sanwa locked the travel bag, and Shanwa didn't plan to open it for a short time.

Before leaving, the family had to bring some money to Shanwa, but Shanwa didn't let her, and finally brought 300 yuan. I also put my 2,000 yuan in my travel bag! It can be said that the money of the whole carriage should not be as much as Shanwa's money alone.

Shanwa believes in low-key and safe. Just keep your travel bag!

So Shanwa doesn't plan to open her travel bag in a short time, Shanwa thinks that even if she gets out of the company, she won't open it in a short time!

I don't know how long it has been, the current carriage has lost the excitement just now, Shanwa has been looking at the scenery outside the car window, and no one knows what he is thinking.

At this time, Yang Gang touched Shanwa and handed Shanwa an apple. Shanwa looked at Yang Gang, smiled and took it.

Yang Gang said: This is brought by Cuicui, we are from a village. In the future, if you have anything, tell me, I promised my uncle and aunt to help them take care of you. In fact, Shanwa felt Yang Gang's dullness.

After thinking about it, I said, Brother Gang, we are from a village, and I understand your situation and your thoughts. You want to get ahead and change your family's situation!

When you get to the army, I hope you will behave well and have a chance to stand out. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me and I will help you.

You also said that we should take care of each other as a village. I will not stay in the army in the future, and I will go home to marry Erni and take care of my parents and sister after I leave the army.

Yang Gang looked at Shanwa and said, "Don't you want to 'enter D' and 'Tigan' in the army?" Then you~ didn't say the following words.

Shanwa said, Brother Gang, dreams, I am because of dreams, to be exact, my father's dreams. My dad had only worked in the militia, but he also longed for a military uniform.

The military uniform that my Uncle Gao gave to my father back then is still neatly placed in the cabinet.

And my dad wanted me to go to the army to train myself. Shanwa~hehe~ smiled bitterly and continued: You don't know, since the day we issued the military uniform, my father has let me wear it all the time.

Seeing me wearing a military uniform, he laughs every day~ Ah! This should be an obsession in my father's heart, although he never said it!

I went to the army to train for three years, which not only satisfied my father's wishes, but also trained myself, and that was enough.

Yang Gang looked at Sanwa and said in a low voice That's too. After you are discharged from the army, you can definitely go to work in the city with your family's relationship, Erni is now working in the city, you are married, and you can live in the city together.

Go to the city and live. This is the dream of ordinary Chinese peasants and the people of that generation! Even if the production is guaranteed to the households, there are still 'three mentions and five reunifications'! If you want to go out, become a soldier, and take the entrance examination, this is the only choice of this era.

Shanwa didn't say anything more. With the reform and the change of the times, many things will also change!

The inside of the carriage is now completely quiet, everyone may be tired, maybe they are thinking about their own thoughts! Time is spent in the stop-and-go of the train, and the people come and go!

When the train finally stopped, and the tie led everyone off the train, everyone lost the enthusiasm they had when they got on the train. One by one, it's almost the same as a little plague chicken.

Three days of green hard board trains are enough to make you physically and mentally exhausted! Getting off the train is a bumpy ride of old liberation! When everyone arrived at the camp, it was already dark, and someone came to arrange for everyone to eat, wash, and rest.

The next day, the mountain baby, who was still asleep, was woken up by a shrill "horn" sound, and when she saw her watch, it was only past 6 o'clock! When you officially entered the army, you will know what iron discipline is.

First of all, you have to memorize the regulations, internal affairs, discipline, and platoon! The three-month recruit training will let you know what it takes to be a qualified soldier!

It wasn't until Shanwa got out of the company that she still felt creepy! Internal affairs; the most rare thing was to fold quilts and tofu blocks! 6 noodles and 24 corners, and Comrade Shanwa also took great pains.

I also prepared tools for folding quilts, and a cardboard similar to an ID card was used to help myself. Some wet the quilt with water for neatness.

Discipline: It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. Let you lie down, don't say that there are puddles in front, mud, and even cow dung. Even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, you have to lie down!

In the beginning, there were often comrades-in-arms who would be told by the squad leader: "Your ass has been smashed by enemy bullets." What are you pouting your ass for!

Queues; It is also a hardship for some fighters who are not divided into left and right, and they are always on the way.

Don't say it, you say he went on a crutch, and he walked naturally! And then everyone watched him messy in the wind! Shanwa got used to it a lot after a long time of training. You won't be able to catch up with the meal.

The first time I ate in the big cafeteria, Shanwa saw a veteran skewering steamed buns with chopsticks, and then beat half a bowl of hot soup and started eating, Shanwa didn't understand.

I took two steamed buns and made a bowl of soup, and by the time I wanted to eat some steamed buns, the veterans had already finished eating. The steamed buns and soup are also gone.

Later, I understood, I don't need to take a string of steamed buns at a time, only half a bowl of hot soup is played, and I blow it with my mouth, it is cool and fast, and I don't burn my mouth when I drink it directly.

After drinking, make half a bowl less. When it's almost time to eat, just hit a full bowl and finish eating after drinking. You take a steamed bun and take it after eating, a bowl of hot soup, it's not so fast to blow cold.

In fact, Shanwa was scared when she saw everyone eating at the beginning, she was grabbing it, and the amount of food was extremely large.

At night, when the soldiers are resting, the quilt is so easy to beat the 'tofu block', or don't cover the quilt tonight, tomorrow will save trouble!

As a result, the squad leader came over and opened the quilt for you, and did not forget to tell you that it was cold when the quilt was covered!

Recruits practice throwing grenades, and who can't throw grenades! However, there are really comrades who throw grenades at themselves, and if they throw real grenades, it is estimated that he will be really finished.

After training, everyone finally hit the target with live ammunition, and Shanwa was also very excited, she was at home, and she was the 'big black star' of the old May Fourth who had played with her eldest brother-in-law, and the firearms management in this era was not very strict. Shanwa also used a big black star to shoot live ammunition.

Today, everyone uses 56 semi-automatic to shoot the target, and everyone has ten bullets per person, and the shooting is completed to report the target.

Shanwa's character exploded and hit 130 rings, with 17 bullet holes on the target. The comrade-in-arms next to him was all off target. As a result, Shanwa's target number is also ineffective.

This guy is all on the target of the mountain baby. After three months of training, I finally got out of the company!
