Chapter 418: The troublesome old squad leader
The three women who saw Cheng Zhichao off were indignant at Director Liu's approach, and also praised Cheng Zhichao's insistence on not taking the training center's car back, feeling that this little guy was not very old and had a low military rank, but there was a kind of arrogance that could not be seen from others. But they didn't know that Cheng Zhichao did this because in addition to the silent protest to the training center, there was another consideration.
That is, after returning to the teaching team, how should I explain to Yang Yujian.
The ugly daughter-in-law inevitably saw her in-laws, and now she has only been in the training center for a month, and she has just become familiar with Che Yi and others, and before she can start the investigation and start the task, she was sent back. Yang Yujian is Cheng Zhichao's new army leader, and against him, Cheng Zhichao has no bottom in his heart. Since I can't think of a good way for the time being, I can only delay the time as much as possible, even if it is five minutes late to return to the teaching team. Maybe you'll be able to figure it out in five minutes.
Since Director Liu had already greeted Yang Yujian while handing over the handling decision to Cheng Zhichao, no matter what, Cheng Zhichao had to return to the teaching team today, and he could only make a fuss about the time to return to the team. Walking more than ten kilometers of mountain road back is the most feasible way at present.
Since he got on the minibus in the county seat, Cheng Zhichao has been touching his nose and thinking about countermeasures, how to say it after going back so that Yang Yujian's fire will not burn so much, so that he will not send himself out to raise pigs. It's enough to be in the teaching team, and if he is sent to raise pigs again, then he may really never get ahead in the army.
This is absolutely not allowed, especially after Young Master Cheng changed his original intention and planned to make a career in the teaching team, it is absolutely not allowed.
walked all the way, touched his nose and thought all the way, almost didn't wear out the skin of his nose, and still didn't come up with any good way, but when he entered the mountain, Cheng Zhichao had to get out of the car. The next ten kilometers of mountain roads are enough for him to walk, Cheng Zhichao sighed. Looking at the minibus in the distance, he muttered to himself: "Unlucky people drink cold water and stuff their teeth, I used to hear people say that this minibus drove like an ox cart." How did you get to the place so quickly today? ”
On the way into the mountain, there was not a single pedestrian in sight, and this was originally an improvised road, which was jointly built by the local government and the army. Since neither side could come up with too much money, they could only simply repair it, and the top layer was paved with stones and fine sand, and it became a road into the mountain. Follow the road all the way and over a few hills. You can go to the teaching team.
Walking on this mountain road, listening to the birdsong and water flow along the way, Cheng Zhichao's mood became worse and worse. The distance of more than ten kilometers is normally more than two hours, but Cheng Zhichao walked for five or six hours, until the sun set, and it was not until the sun set that he moved to the teaching team at dusk. Seeing the gate of the teaching team, Cheng Zhichao's heart calmed down. Anyway, stick out your head and stab it. The head reduction is also a knife. His grandmother's, spelled.
He is from the confidential room, according to the rules, after coming back, he should go to report to Assistant Tang. In fact, Cheng Zhichao did the same. didn't even put down his luggage, and knocked on the door of Assistant Tang's office.
Assistant Tang watched him until he came back. looked overjoyed, but immediately sank his face again: "Why did you come back so late." Didn't you say you'd be back in the morning? ”
"Assistant Tang, I'm walking back." The little joy on Assistant Tang's face at the beginning did not hide from Cheng Zhichao's eyes. Although he didn't know why he was happy, Cheng Zhichao was already sure that this Tang assistant was happy that he was returned by the training center. Yes, just happy. But why he is happy, Cheng Zhichao is unknown.
But knowing that he was happy that he was back was enough, Cheng Zhichao didn't have time to ask for an understanding, as soon as he saw that Assistant Tang gave him a good face, he immediately said witty words, hoping that he could turn big things into small things and small things. …,
"Walked back?" Assistant Tang looked at him in surprise, only to see that this guy was not only covered with dust, but also had a thin layer of fine ash on his face, only the forehead looked clean, it was estimated that he wiped it when he was sweating, but it really looked like he walked back.
Assistant Tang was unhappy: "This old Mrs. Liu is really, even if she returns the person, she won't even be reluctant to send the car, just a few tens of kilometers, how much fuel can she use?" ”
"Assistant Tang, the training center sent me a car, but I didn't take it. This time I didn't complete the task, and I didn't have the face to see Assistant Tang and the sheep team, so I decided to punish myself myself. ”
"Good boy, have backbone, damn it, drive us back, and we won't take his car." Assistant Tang laughed and patted Cheng Zhichao's shoulder affectionately, "How is it, you're tired after walking so far?" Go back and wash your face and get some rest. Don't go to work these days, give you three days off, and take good care of your body. ”
Cheng Zhichao was flattered: "Give me three days off?" ”
"Well, this is what the sheep team confessed, you have a meritorious undercover agent, and you will be rewarded for a three-day vacation."
Cheng Zhichao fell into a fog and said blankly: "However, I have only been there for a month, and no one has dug it up, how can I say that the undercover agent has merit?" ”
"You don't have to worry about these things, anyway, you just go back and rest." Assistant Tang's face was full of spring breeze, and he vigorously persuaded Cheng Zhichao to go back to rest. Cheng Zhichao had no choice but to agree, walked out of his office, pinched his thighs hard, and a sharp pain came over, only to realize that he was not dreaming. The leaders of the teaching team of the secret road are really different, they were sent back alone, and no one was dug up, not only was they not cleaned up, but they were also rewarded with a three-day vacation, which is really confusing.
But anyway, it is always a good thing to take three days off without criticism, Cheng Zhichao thought about it for a while and didn't come up with a result, then became happy again, humming a little song and returning to the dormitory.
As soon as the bed was made, Wang Lei ran back from the confidential room when he heard the news, and when the two met, they naturally wanted to be intimate. No, Zhichao wanted to find out from him why he didn't complete the task and came back not only not to be criticized, but to be rewarded, but there was no result at all, and Wang Lei didn't know.
………………………………………………………………………………………………
If you don't understand, don't ask, anyway, sooner or later it will be clear, Cheng Zhichao simply stopped exploring, early the next morning, after breakfast, Wang Lei went to work in the confidential room, Cheng Zhichao, a big idler, walked around the teaching team with nothing to do. I accidentally came to the cooking class, and I happened to see that the people in the cooking class were about to send someone to the radar station to deliver supplies.
Young Master Cheng's eyes couldn't help but light up, time passed too fast. I have been in the training center for nearly a month, and within this month, I haven't seen Zhao Jiyong, and I really miss him a little. Taking advantage of his own vacation now, instead of going around in the teaching team, it is better to go to the radar station to see this kid.
At that moment, he hurriedly came to the side of the cooking squad leader, and before he could speak, he took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over: "Oops." Hello old squad leader, come on, come on, smoke one. ”
The cooking squad leader was looking down to check the things in the back basket, and when he heard someone talking to him, he looked up and saw that it was a private he didn't know, but the cigarette handed over was good, so he straightened up and took the cigarette from Cheng Zhichao's hand. He leaned over to the fire handed by Cheng Zhichao and lit the cigarette. Meimei took a puff and asked in a Fujian accent that Cheng Zhichao was almost incomprehensible: "You rookie egg, you came to me, lit a cigarette and handed over the fire, what's the matter?" ”…,
"There's a little thing I want to discuss with the squad leader."
"It depends. There are a lot of things in the non-staple food warehouse in the cooking class, but if you eat a cucumber or tomato, you can do it. Nothing else to talk about. ”
Cheng Zhichao let out a "uh", only then did he know that the cooking squad leader regarded him as a person who ran over to eat. Hurriedly shook his head like a wave: "Squad leader, you misunderstood, I didn't come to ask for food, I have another thing to ask the squad leader." ”
"Say it." The cooking squad leader is a veteran, and in the face of Cheng Zhichao, a rookie, he has a natural advantage psychologically. Just these two words, for the sake of the good cigarette that Cheng Zhichao handed over, he didn't even bother to talk to him.
Cheng Zhichao stretched out his finger and pointed to the back basket: "Is this thing going to be sent to the radar station?" ”
"Ah, for a few days, it is estimated that the supplies on the mountain are almost gone, and I plan to send someone to send some."
"Squad leader, it just so happens that I am on vacation today, and I have nothing to do, the comrades in the cooking class are very busy, and I will definitely not be able to make lunch in time to come and go, which will affect the normal opening of the comrades. Why don't I deliver it for you? ”
"Hey, you're a little interesting young man, people are on vacation, and they've already gone out to play, so it's good for you to take the initiative to find a job." The cooking squad leader was happy.
Cheng Zhichao was also happy: "I can't be idle, and when I am idle, I can't be happy." Besides, Zhao Jiyong, who was newly assigned to the radar station, and I are brothers, and I want to go and see him. ”
The cooking squad leader knew that the radar station had assigned a recruit this year, and when he heard Cheng Zhichao say this, he was immediately relieved, and pointed at Cheng Zhichao and laughed again: "I just said that you won't take the initiative to find a job, and you have been making trouble for a long time because you want to see your friends." Okay, anyway, whoever sends this thing is the same, if you're not afraid of hard work, just send it for us, and put the basket in the cooking class when you come back. ”
"Okay." Cheng Zhi was overjoyed, bent down and picked up the basket, turned his head and ran. The cooking squad shouted a few times in the back, telling him to be careful not to mess with things. But Cheng Zhichao had already walked away like a gust of wind, and he didn't know if he heard it. The cooking squad leader called a few times, but when he didn't respond, he stopped calling. After taking another puff of cigarette, he looked at Cheng Zhichao's back with a smile behind his back, and nodded again and again: "Well, yes, yes, this soldier can, it's too good." I don't know which unit it is, but it would be nice if I had a chance to be transferred to our cooking class. ”
Of course, Cheng Zhichao wouldn't know that just because of such a small episode, the cooking squad leader had a good impression of him. If he knew that the cooking squad leader liked him because of this and wanted to transfer him to the cooking class, he was afraid that when it was dark in front of him at that time, he would fall to the ground. It was precisely because he didn't know the cooking squad leader's praise for him that he was in a good mood, and he didn't feel tired at all with dozens of pounds of supplies on his back.
The road up the mountain has been walked two or three times, and it is too familiar to be more familiar, and the young master Cheng Zhi is familiar with the road with a basket on his back, and he actually has the leisure time to pick a few wild flowers on the side of the road and insert them in his pocket. He couldn't name the flowers, but they were of different colors, red, yellow, and white, and the same two were inserted in the pocket of his jacket, which not only beautified himself, but also smelled a dark fragrance.
In the midst of the floating fragrance of flowers, Cheng Zhichao didn't take much time to arrive at the radar station, put down the basket at the door, and beat his back twice, Young Master Cheng cleared his throat and shouted: "Zhao Jiyong." Lao Tzu came to see you, and by the way, I gave you a raise, hurry up and get out of the gold brick paving. Sweep Lao Tzu. ”
No response.
Cheng Zhichao said "Huh" and shouted again. This time the other party reacted, and a person came out of the cabin of the radar station, but it was Lao Fu's squad leader. Zhao Jiyong was nowhere to be seen. …,
I haven't seen each other for more than a month, and squad leader Fu still knows Cheng Zhichao, so he laughed and rubbed his hands: "Oh, Xiao Cheng is here." How. Transferred to the cooking class? ”
"Hello, old squad leader, long time no see." Cheng Zhichao looked at him with a look of surprise, knowing that he had misunderstood that he had been transferred to the cooking class, so he hurriedly explained, stating that he was a talent among talents, and he was definitely not transferred to the cooking class, this time it was just because of vacation. I miss Zhao Jiyong again. That's why I sent it to the people in the cooking class, mainly to see Zhao Jiyong.
The expression on Squad Leader Fu's face returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "I'll just say, Xiao Cheng can't find a few talents in our teaching team, how can he be transferred to the cooking class." Fast into the house. He said. Reached out to pick up the back basket that Cheng Zhichao had on his back.
How could this kind of menial work be done by the old squad leader? Cheng Zhichao hurriedly snatched the backpack from his hand and followed him into the cabin of the radar station. Take out the contents of the basket and put it in the kitchen. While placing things, he kept looking for Zhao Jiyong's traces. But this kid seems to have evaporated from the world, and he has not shown up until now.
"This ......, old squad leader, where is Ji Yong?"
"Zhao Jiyong, alas!" It's better not to mention Zhao Jiyong, as soon as Zhao Jiyong is mentioned, squad leader Fu immediately looked sad, slapped his thigh heavily, sighed, and couldn't go on.
Cheng Zhichao's heart tightened: "What's wrong?" What happened to Jiyong? ”
"Don't mention him." Squad leader Fu poured a glass of water for Cheng Zhichao, put it in his hand himself, and pulled him to sit down before saying, "Xiao Cheng, you came just in time, I just wanted to talk to you about this." I know that you and he are good friends, and before you became a soldier, you were young, and your relationship was very good. You have to persuade him, if he goes on like this, he will be ruined. ”
"Squad leader, don't worry, what happened to him, Jiyong, talk slowly." Cheng Zhichao listened to him more and more strictly, and he couldn't help but feel furious in his heart, and in turn comforted the squad leader Fu, telling him not to be too excited, and to speak slowly.
Squad leader Fu shook his head: "What can happen to him, okay." sighed and said: "Zhao Jiyong, this kid, has a smart head, quick response, and strong hands-on ability. If you temper it well, it is a good seedling. But his mind is not here at all, and he is obsessed with hunting all day long, digging pits and nets in the forest, and he wants to improve my food. Tell me, if you go on like this, how can you get it? ”
"Ah, is there such a thing?" Cheng Zhichao couldn't help but be stunned. He remembered that when he sent Zhao Jiyong up the mountain, he once mentioned that if Zhao Jiyong couldn't stay, he could hunt and play in the forest. But that's just a joke, who would have thought that this kid would take it seriously and really come here to hunt. Looking at the look of regret on the face of the squad leader, it was obvious that Zhao Jiyong was not only hunting in the forest, but also regarded hunting as his main business. No wonder Cheng Zhichao didn't see Zhao Jiyong's figure after coming for so long, no need to ask, this guy must have gone to the woods to hunt again.
Cheng Zhichao is also responsible for this matter. If he didn't remind Zhao Jiyong, this kid might not be able to think of this way to relieve loneliness, Cheng Zhichao couldn't help but blush, touched his nose and said: "This ......, old squad leader, how is his harvest from hunting?" ”
"What?" Squad Leader Fu's face changed.
"No, I mean to say, Zhao Jiyong is in the mountains these days, hunting every day?"
"Not really. At the beginning, I said that hunting would improve the food, but I only thought he was a young man for fun, and I didn't stop him much. Unexpectedly, the more he played, the more addicted he became, he got up earlier than me every day, and after he got up, he didn't see anyone, sometimes he didn't even come back for lunch, and he didn't come back until dark. ”…,
"Then his professional ......"
"I didn't learn anything at all, what I was like when I came, and what I still look like now. Actually, among this batch of recruits, I am quite optimistic about the two of you. So Xiao Cheng, you have to persuade him well no matter what, if he continues like this, I have no way to explain it. Squad Leader Fu had a sad face, as if he didn't train Zhao Jiyong, he would be sorry for the party-state.
"Squad leader, if you want me to say, you are also to blame for this. Who are you? You're our old squad leader. Ji Yong drills into the forest every day, and you won't follow him to catch him back? I don't believe it, you went to arrest him personally, and he dared to resist. ”
Squad Leader Fu smiled bitterly, pulled up his trousers, pointed to a few small dark red scars on his legs and said: "You think I haven't caught him, but when I entered the forest, I couldn't find his figure at all, and twice he was injured by the ghost things he laid down, and these scars were left at that time." ”
"This is a bit strict, it's just unreasonable." Cheng Zhichao said loudly with a righteous and awe-inspiring look: "As a revolutionary soldier, you should do one line of love and one line, how can you be so casual?" Squad leader, don't worry, since this matter has been made known, I have no reason to stand idly by. When Jiyong comes back, I will definitely talk about him well and let him restrain him. ”
Squad Leader Fu smiled: "I know that Xiao Cheng is reasonable, so Xiao Zhao's affairs are up to you." ”
