Courtesy is the emotion and kindness from the heart, and it is also an instinctive embodiment of personal moral cultivation.

In late January, although the daily training was still going on, the new comrades-in-arms knew in their hearts that the work of dividing the troops was about to begin. As a result, everyone's hearts are apprehensive and nervous......

After dinner one day, platoon commander Zhang Liangchun beckoned Wang Shulin into his room and asked with a smile: "The division of troops is about to begin, what do you think?"

Seeing the other party's smiling face, Wang Linlin knew that there must be good news, but he replied seriously: "I just arrived in the army, and everything is up to the platoon commander. Preferably, I can be assigned to your company!"

Hearing such an answer, the platoon commander seemed very happy, and asked with a smile: "Okay, it's good to be in my company." But what if you were asked to go to the car company and learn to drive?"

"Okay, thank you!" Wang Linlin happily replied.

In the army, the safety requirements for personnel and vehicles are very high, so the automobile soldiers who come out of the army not only have excellent driving skills, but also have very good skills in car repair and maintenance. Therefore, being a car soldier in the army is the dream of many comrades-in-arms.

"Wang Linlin, what a bad thing! Just now you said that you wanted to go down to the company with me, but this time you heard that you could go to the automobile company, why did you change your mind?" asked the platoon commander with a sneer.

Wang Forest was speechless, just laughed stupidly. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked, "Platoon commander, do you know how Wu Xinguo arranged it?"

In the face of such a question, the platoon commander was a little inexplicable, and he replied hesitantly: "I don't know, why do you still care about other people's affairs?"

It turned out that because Wu Xinguo's family situation was a little special, Wang Forest had always been very concerned and cared for him, and the other party was also grateful, and wrote to his mother about the situation.

Wu Xinguo's mother's surname is Meng, and she is a well-informed person. She read her son's family letters many times, so she became familiar with Wang Linlin and wrote him a long letter:

Wang Linlin, deputy squad leader, hello!

It really bothers me to write to you very presumptuously, just because Xinguo often writes to mention your many cares, so I am grateful and grateful!

I believe that Xinguo has already introduced the situation in my family to you. It's just that he lacked father's love since he was a child, and my body is not angry, so his education is not enough, resulting in him having a fragile and irritable personality...... Now, he can have a comrade-in-arms like you, which can be said to be the luck of our mother and son!

I am a humble rural primary school teacher, and stomach pain is an old problem, but recently, my condition has been getting worse...... Speaking from the heart, I'm not afraid of death, but I can't rest assured that Keling's son—— he is my only concern in this world!

Xinguo's joining the army was also a helpless move: first, he hoped that he would temper himself in the army, change his bad character and temper, and become braver and stronger; second, he was a rural hukou, and he also wanted him to learn a skill so that he could make plans for the future......

Wang Linlin, the deputy squad leader, Xinguo is thousands of miles away, and now what I can do for him is very limited; fortunately, with brothers and comrades-in-arms like you by my side, I just ask for a lot of help and persuasion......

After reading Mr. Meng's letter, Platoon Leader Zhang Liangchun was also full of sadness, but he was just speechless.

"Platoon commander, can you also arrange Wu Xinguo to the car company?" Wang Shulin asked in a low voice.

"The personnel have already been decided, and they are uniformly formulated by the head of the camp and the military affairs department at a higher level, and they can't be changed at all!" the other party replied helplessly.

"Then I'll exchange Wu Xinguo, okay?"

"Wang Linlin, you kid is not sick! I know you have a good heart, but this matter is not something you can change if you want to, anyway, I can't be the master!"

"Good platoon commander, who should I find to do it?"

"You can only find the head of the camp or the head of the troops, but you have to think clearly!" Platoon Commander Zhang replied seriously.

……

People, as long as they move their hearts, are always quick and persistent.

Quickly found the head of the camp, Wang Linlin explained what happened. The chief had a good impression of him, and after listening carefully, he said: "Comrade Wang Linlin, your thoughts and deeds are worthy of praise, but at this time I am also powerless, because all the distribution lists have already been handed over to the military affairs department at a higher level. ”

Wang Forest continued to grind hard, and suddenly, he thought of the No. 3 chief, so he asked to call. The head of the camp first refused to allow it, but then he was so entangled that he had no choice but to call the phone. The head of the camp clearly reported the situation to the No. 3 leader, only to hear the No. 3 leader muttering for a long time: "I have an impression of this soldier, but I ......"

Hurriedly grabbed the microphone, "Report to the No. 3 chief, I am Wang Linlin, if the chief agrees to my request, I am willing to go to the most difficult post or company!"

I only heard the other party laugh heartily, and replied solemnly: "Okay, just by virtue of your words, I will make an exception and promise you!"

In life, there are too many gatherings and separations, but the emotional outpouring is the openness and interweaving of the heart.

Beginning on January 21, 1987, the new comrades-in-arms basically stopped training, and the battalion, squad, and platoon were divided into units and conducted training summaries.

In the summary of the class and platoon, Wang Forest was unanimously praised and praised, and was awarded the only camp commendation order in the class. He was happy with the good news, and on the same day he wrote to his family to tell him.

During the break, the comrades-in-arms took pictures according to shifts and platoons. Because they are about to separate, everyone's hearts are reluctant, so personal photos and sending photos to each other, or taking photos of three or five comrades-in-arms, are the main things for everyone in those days.

On the morning of January 24, Wang Linlin and his comrades-in-arms received a notice of today's assignment of recruits, and saw that everyone was busy, packing their backpacks, sorting out their luggage and daily necessities.

Before the dinner in the evening, the head of the camp spoke highly of the training life of the participants for more than two months, and admonished the soldiers: It is their duty to obey orders, and no matter what the results of the assignment are, they must be seriously and actively treated.

In the evening, several vehicles and regimental commanders arrived at the camp.

At about six o'clock in the evening, as soon as it was dark, the comrades-in-arms heard the horn of the assembly. At the same time, the comrades-in-arms of the second camp have also arrived, and the entire front of the barracks is full of neat comrades-in-arms.

The No. 5 leader was a Cantonese and tall man, but his voice was particularly loud; but as soon as he spoke, he felt a thunderbolt sounding out of thin air.

Commander No. 5 first affirmed everyone's training achievements and congratulated the new comrades-in-arms on their training and becoming qualified fighters. Then, the list of troops was announced: the comrades-in-arms who were called by name should first answer "yes" and then run to the front of the queue and line up in order; a group of people was divided and quickly taken away by the leading cadres; and then the next group was called and taken away......

Seeing the comrades-in-arms get into the car one by one, the pain of parting quickly came to my heart: there were shouting, crying, and tearing......

When Wu Xinguo's name was read, he replied loudly, "Yes." Immediately, it was a tight hug with Wang Forest......

When the car slowly drove away, the other party burst out and shouted: "Wang Forest!"

At this time, Wang Linlin's eyes were already blurred with tears, and his heart was even more hot......

Due to discipline, everyone could not leave the queue, and even if they had a thousand words, they could not tell, but everyone's emotions were vented, and the division of troops was postponed on several occasions.

Those who left the camp that night were the health team, automobile company, command company, and guard company of the organ, as well as the oil mechanics and logistics personnel of various units, and more than half of the comrades-in-arms who left. The people who stayed were divided into three parts: the operator, the plotter, and the operator, who would continue to stay in the camp for professional training, and Wang Linlin was one of the operators.

The weather that night was like everyone's mood: dark, gloomy, cold, and then a heavy rain.
