Chapter 62: Military Training Begins
When the school bell rang for the third time, the students were already standing in the middle of the playground.
It is said that the playground of the No. 1 Middle School in the city is the best sports venue in the city except for the gymnasium, and at this time, I saw that 800 freshmen were divided into 16 groups, groups 1 to 7 were girls, and the remaining boys were divided into groups 8 to 16. I saw an instructor standing in front of each team, and I heard from the students that this instructor was likely to be the future class teacher.
Dongzi stood at the back of the line because he went late, and after he heard this, he stood on tiptoe and looked at the front of his team, only to see a male teacher standing at the front, and he was a little disappointed in his heart. Of course, there are also female teachers who have been assigned to serve as instructors in other groups, and Dongzi is trying to find Teacher Liu Xia, but she is weak because of her height.
From a distance, you can vaguely feel that the grouping of military training is arranged according to size, Dongzi's height is not high, he was divided into the twelfth group, Zhao Zhiqiang was placed in the highest group because of his outstanding size, that is, in the sixteenth group, and Zhang Yu was slightly taller than Dongzi, so he was divided into thirteen groups.
Directly opposite where the students are standing is a row of podiums, about two meters higher than the playground, so they don't have to tiptoe to get an unobstructed view of the scenery above.
This is deliberately arranged by the school, and I saw two big speakers on both sides of the rostrum, and it seems that this is where the school has held major events for many years.
I saw that a row of tables had already been set up on the rostrum, red cloth was laid on the table, and there were desktop microphones on the three tables in the middle, which looked very solemn.
Not long after the bell rang for the third time, I saw the leaders of the school walking to the rostrum one by one, most of them carrying water glasses in their hands, and when they sat down according to their respective table cards, Fuyuko saw that the person sitting in the middle was about fifty years old, wearing a long-sleeved white shirt, and his hair was a little bald, as for his appearance, Fuyuko was far away and couldn't see clearly, but he was sure that this was the principal of the school.
At this time, I only heard the solemn national anthem playing, which was most familiar to Fuyuko, who did this every day in junior high school. I saw that all the teachers sitting on the rostrum also stood up, and the students in the audience sang loudly along with the national anthem.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, it was the hottest time of the day, and the students were sweating hot and sweating on the rostrum on the west side, looking at the school leaders sitting on it, blocked by the sun from the building behind them.
After the national anthem, I saw the host walk from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, Dongzi leaned forward, only to see that the host was a female classmate, not tall, although he couldn't see the appearance clearly, but he vaguely felt that it was also very ordinary, which subverted Dongzi's concept, he always thought that the first condition for being a host was to have a good image.
I saw that the host walked up calmly and generously, stretched out his hand and gently lowered the microphone that was half a head taller than her, and at this time I only heard someone in the crowd laughing.
The host ignored it and cleared his throat, Dongzi saw that she didn't have a manuscript in her hand, obviously about to take off the manuscript, so she just listened to her: "Hello everyone, first of all, let's introduce myself." ”
Just listening to her crisp voice, just listening to this voice, will definitely not be associated with a person of such a figure. Her voice was not angry, and as soon as she spoke, she suppressed the laughter of the crowd.
I only heard her continue: "My name is Liu Lanzhi, and I am a student in the third year of high school and class 250 of the school. After saying this, almost all the students couldn't hold back and laughed, and Fuyuko, who was standing at the back of the line, also laughed.
Dongzi memorized the article "Peacock Flying Southeast" when he was in junior high school, and knew that the protagonist in it was called Liu Lanzhi, Dongzi was laughing at the host's name and the tragic heroine in this article, which sounded very rustic; Isn't that the amount of anyone who is assigned to this class is equivalent to admitting that he is two hundred and five!
Liu Lanzhi seemed to have known that this would be the kind of reaction, but instead of getting angry, she laughed generously with the crowd.
I saw that Liu Lanzhi saw that everyone's interest went down, and then said: "My life is the same as my name, very ordinary, but my personality is the same as my class number, with a unique personality! I hope everyone remembers me, my name is Liu Lanzhi." ”
After listening to this passage, the smile in everyone's hearts calmed down a little, not only Dongzi, but also these students who had just entered high school saw in Liu Lanzhi the maturity that would only exist at this age.
I only heard Liu Lanzhi say again: "Of course, the president of the Xiju Student Union, I don't want me to leave the same impression on everyone as the microphone erected in front of me, but I hope that I can bend down and do a good job as a bridge between the school and students in a down-to-earth manner." After saying this, I saw that she deliberately reached out and pressed the microphone again.
After saying this, there was a noise of "wow" in the crowd, and the students didn't know that the hostess who was standing in front of the rostrum turned out to be the president of the school's student union.
Liu Lanzhi added: "Serving students is the meaning of the existence of the Student Union, first of all, please allow me to extend a warm welcome to everyone on behalf of the Student Union!"
In addition to the warm applause on the playground, there was no other sound, and it seemed that everyone was impressed by Liu Lanzhi's words.
This is also the charm of Fuyuko's yearning for the city No. 1 Middle School, although he didn't see the student council when he was in junior high school, but he had also heard of this "mysterious" organization, if it was left in the county No. 1 Middle School, such a situation would not be seen.
Liu Lanzhi looked at the sound of admiration among the students, only to see that she still smiled slightly, and said: "So, if you have any difficulties in study or life in the future, you can come to me, Liu Lanzhi from Class 250." Oh, by the way, Class 250 is our school's elite class!" After saying this, she stopped.
When the students heard this, their impression of Liu Lanzhi had turned a 180-degree turn, it seems that this Liu Lanzhi is really not an ordinary person, no wonder she can be the president of the student union!
Finally, listen to Liu Lanzhi say: "Okay, students, let's welcome our President Yin with the warmest applause for our military training oath meeting!"
I saw that she was the first to applaud, the classmates in the audience applauded, Dongzi slowly took out his hand, and absentmindedly "snapped" twice, he was not slow to react, but still thinking about Liu Lanzhi in his heart, what kind of character is this!
I only heard Principal Yin put down the water glass, gently patted the microphone in front of him, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of the whole school faculty and staff, I welcome everyone!"
This is a standard leader's speech, and people in this country have heard it at least a hundred times, and everyone doesn't care what the content is, just applaud, so when Principal Yin finished saying this, the audience burst into warm applause.
I saw Principal Yin stretch out his left hand, suppressed the applause, and said: "The person who spoke just now is the president of our school's student union, Liu Lanzhi, I am very happy to tell you that Liu Lanzhi has been sent to Peking University in advance! Let us congratulate her with warm applause, and I hope that the students will look up to her!"
God, this is just the beginning of the third year of high school, and there is still a whole year to prepare for the college entrance examination, but Liu Lanzhi has been escorted, this is really a god man, this time the applause of the students is a voice of praise and envy from the heart.
The scorching sun was like fire, and the students persevered under the scorching sun for nearly an hour before Principal Yin finished speaking, and he finally said the long-awaited words: "Now I announce that the military training for freshmen in high school will start now!"
At this time, I saw a row of armed policemen running in from behind the rostrum, they were neat and uniform, and they looked very energetic.
The students were frightened by this situation, is this what they will face in the next ten days?
I saw that the teacher on the rostrum disappeared after the military training oath meeting, and Dongzi's team was also taken to a relatively shady place by their instructor.
Dongzi looked at this instructor, who was basically the same size as this team, with a small flat head and glasses, who looked older than Teacher Liu Xia, and could also be said to be more experienced.
Listening to his self-introduction, I learned that he was a first-year high school political teacher at the school, surnamed Wei, called Wei Yaozhong, and this teacher Wei may also be the homeroom teacher of Dongzi's class.
Dongzi was very happy to hear Teacher Wei speak very kindly, and to be able to mingle with the students, which was what he wanted to see the most.
After a while, I saw an instructor come to them, and after a brief introduction, the students knew that this was the instructor who was going to take them for military training in the next ten days, and the name didn't know what it was called, but they knew that the surname was Lu, so everyone called him Instructor Lu.
I only heard this Instructor Lu say: "I am about the same age as everyone else, and we are good friends in private, but I hope that during the military training, everyone will not drop the chain for me, otherwise, fuck me...... I'll kick you in the ass!"
This sentence caused a burst of laughter from the students, but he soon revealed the quality of the soldier's words, only to see that he went up to the front row and smiled at the student is kick, of course, he took off his shoes and kicked, this foot, the students lowered their heads and did not dare to speak, only Dongzi looked up at the instructor, and said in his heart: "Interesting!"
The afternoon passed like this, and this afternoon was not considered a formal military training, because the students needed to go to the clothes and shoes for the military training, which also wasted some effort.
Time passed unconsciously, and although Fuyuko ate abundantly at noon, he was not patient with hunger, and after a while, he heard his stomach "gurgling", but without the instructor's order, no one dared to move, let alone speak.
Finally, it was six o'clock in the afternoon, only to see that the chief instructor stood on the rostrum and blew a whistle, and the instructors gathered the students in a heartfelt manner.
But I only heard Instructor Lu not talk about eating, but said loudly: "Do you know how to sing military songs?"
The students looked at each other, and they had heard a lot of pop songs, but the military songs were really a little difficult.
I only heard Instructor Lu say: "I will teach you to sing a song "Return from Target Shooting" first, and those who can't learn it are not allowed to eat!" As he spoke, he sang the first sentence: "The red glow flies in the western mountains at sunset, and the soldiers return to the camp when they shoot the target, return the camp!"
The rhythm of the military song was cheerful and catchy, and the students happily followed along.
I only heard the instructor scolding: "Fucking are a group of big men, be louder!" said, pointed to the girls' team next to him with his hand, and said: "See! I can't even sing a little girl, shame on me!"
Most of the students liked to play like this, and as they spoke, they sang loudly.
After a while, the song "Return from Target Shooting" was almost learned, and Instructor Lu seemed to have endless energy, not only did he put a lot of effort into managing his own soldiers, but also liked to compete with other teams, and kept provoking other instructors: "Look at the soldiers I brought out, they are much stronger than yours." ”
Dongzi liked Instructor Lu's character very much, and he thought to himself: Maybe this is the strength in the hearts of soldiers who do not admit defeat.
This military training made Dongzi want to be a soldier from the bottom of his heart, and this is also the thing he regrets the most in his life, that is, he has not really held a gun for a day and stood on a post for a day!
Sure enough, Instructor Lu's Protestant song "Return from Target Shooting" played a role, and Dongzi's team became the first team to eat with its loud singing.
This is not the end, after dinner, the freshmen still need to gather in the playground at half past seven, and the military training will not end until half past nine, so at the end of the day, even the children who come out of the countryside like Dongzi and are accustomed to suffering feel unbearable, let alone those "pampered" city people!
Finally, at half past nine in the evening, when the whistle of dismissal was heard and the instructor said "disband", the students rushed to the dormitory, and they wanted to hurry back to the dormitory and go back to their beds.
This day is a unique day for Fuyuko, Fuyuko's freshness has not passed, but his body has already felt very tired, he originally thought that he could sleep well today, but he didn't expect something to happen that made him unpleasant.
