Before dawn the next day, several recruits in the same room were still asleep, Fu Lanhua woke up, and vaguely felt that there was another person next to her, who fell asleep next to her, and even the slight breathing was really heard. She thought it was the person next to her who was sleeping badly, and inadvertently huddled with her. The room was so dark that she couldn't see anything, and she couldn't turn on the light, so she had to push the man, meaning that it was very crowded to sleep like this, and neither of them was comfortable, so she moved to the side.

Who knows, it doesn't matter if she pushes, the man sits up abruptly, and asks loudly, "Is the time up?" Rise and shine? ”

Her shouting woke up most of the female soldiers in the same room, and one of the female soldiers asked, "It's still early, right?" What's the noise? ”。

Only then did Fu Lanhua know who this person was. It turned out that she and Xiong Yan and Ye Hong talked about the things that were decided together last night, today Sunday, without waiting for the wake-up number in the morning, the three of them agreed to get up at four o'clock in the morning and start training, Fu Lanhua advised: "No one is allowed to scream, so as not to wake everyone up, let alone be late." ”

Ye Hong said confidently: "Anyway, I have no problem, I will be able to wake up by then." ”

But Xiong Yan was worried that she would never wake up, and she had been thinking crankily and couldn't fall asleep in the middle of the night, so she thought of a way, and moved the futon to Fu Lanhua in the middle of the night, so that she could sleep peacefully, anyway, Fu Lanhua would know when she got up together.

Fu Lanhua raised her eyes and looked out the window, the gray night sky was still full of stars, she estimated the time, it was probably only three o'clock in the morning, so she turned over and said to Xiong Yan: "Don't talk, so as not to wake up the others, okay, it's still early, let's sleep well for a while." ”

Fu Lanhua fell asleep, but Xiong Yan couldn't sleep anyway, she was afraid that once she fell asleep, she would delay the training time. The more this time, the more cranky people become, her eyes are wide open, looking up at the black roof, and she thinks to herself: Why is she so unlucky? What a shame, the little sisters who came with me all performed very well, Ye Hong and Cheng Lin...... Alas, if this news reaches the house...... How can parents rest assured? They also think that their daughters are not angry, right? Mom and Dad, how are you doing now......

Thinking of this, Xiong Yan's eyes couldn't help but be rosy, tears fell down her cheeks, and the pillow towel was cold. She rolled over and sat up, dressed neatly, tightened her belt, and walked out of the dormitory without revealing herself, heading straight for the woods. Who of the sisters in the same room didn't know what she was going to do? Of course, no one noticed and discovered her actions.

Xiong Yan walked out of the door and stood on the steps and looked around, the sky was still so gray, the whole camp was silent, she turned her heart down the steps, and followed the corridor, through the playground, and came to the edge of the woods where they had stayed yesterday afternoon.

The winter morning is particularly cold, with the breeze blowing and the occasional "sizzling" from the cracks in the forest. Xiong Yan glanced around, and felt that it was so quiet that it was terrifying, she couldn't help but shiver, and wanted to go back to the barracks, but she remembered her training task again in a flash, and resolutely decided: I will never stop until I don't have a look at this training! So, she tidied up her military appearance and discipline, stood upright, walked in unison, and turned backwards! She shouted the password to herself in her heart...... She practiced every move very seriously. She called the password by herself, did the actions by herself, and mastered all the essentials in place, and she took the whole set of actions, according to the queue rules and requirements of the instructor, basically there were not too many mistakes and non-standard steps.

Even Xiong Yan herself wondered: It's really weird, can't you practice well by yourself? Why do you want to look foreign with everyone? What's the problem?

She was pondering in her heart, but she couldn't help muttering, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"Because you're cowardly." The sudden voice startled Xiong Yan, she turned her head to take a closer look, it turned out to be the "temporary teacher" Fu Lanhua, and there was a Ye Hong next to her. Their sudden appearance made Xiong Yan very happy, and she shouted, "Sister Orchid, are you here?" ”

Ye Hong hurriedly corrected on the side and said, "Hey, hey, don't call it that, you should call it Comrade Teacher." ”

"Yes, Comrade Instructor, recruit Xiong Yan is in the practice queue, please instruct." Xiong Yan really came with a standard military salute.

Ye Hong looked Xiong Yan up and down with a serious hand behind her back, and then waved her hand and said, "Take a break, take a break, and continue to practice." As soon as the words fell, Ye Hong couldn't help but laugh first.

"Hahahaha...... "The three sisters actually laughed together." Shhhhhh ”

"Comrade Fu Instructor, do you want to start training?" Xiong Yan asked.

"Hey, no, no, no, where is the associate teacher? Is it good to be a full teacher? Ye Hong's story is corrected.

Xiong Yan explained: "I'm talking about 'pay', not the deputy of the main and vice. ”

Ye Hong said: "That's not good, from today on, she is your full teacher, and I am your deputy teacher." ”

Xiong Yan smiled and said, "Okay, in the future, I will call Sister Orchid Zhengfu Teacher, and you will be called Ye (also) Deputy Teacher." ”

"Hmm...... Why does it sound so awkward? It's not good. Ye Hong touched his ears and pondered for a moment and said, "Just call the No. 1 instructor and the No. 2 instructor in the future." ”

"Alright, alright, silly girls, don't tease, it's not too early, start training." Fu Lanhua raised her left hand and shouted, "Line up." ”

Xiong Yan and Ye Hong quickly lined up and stood up. The first command issued by Fu Lanhua: "Take a break, stand up!" Tidy up the military appearance and discipline! ”

The sky was white, and the stars were thinning; The cold morning breeze gently blew the dead branches that had fallen leaves, and the sound of Fu Orchid's password continued to come out from the edge of the woods: "Stand upright, put your five fingers together, bend naturally, align your middle finger with the line of the seam of your trousers, okay, turn back, walk in unison!" One-two-one, one-two-one......"

At the beginning, Xiong Yan can basically follow all the movements, whether it is turning left or right; This one is almost turning backwards, and it may be okay to practice a few more times, but this can be done slowly. Her Qi walked smoothly, Fu Lanhua was very happy, and Ye Hong was quite satisfied with her.

Fu Lanhua's steps are to let Xiong Yan first easy and then difficult, only one morning, other actions are more standardized than again, and after mastering the essentials, practicing a few more times will definitely meet the requirements stipulated in the regulations. However, the following most critical action is the most deadly, which is the main reason why she has been criticized several times, that is, "walking on the right step"! Her action has always been regarded as a laughing stock for the recruits of the whole company, and it is also Fu Lanhua's biggest headache.

However, Fu Lanhua is already mentally prepared, as long as Xiong Yan's "positive step" is corrected, it will be a victory. I've practiced all the movements two or three times, and I'm almost proficient. Although it was winter, Xiong Yan and Ye Hong's foreheads were slightly beads of sweat, and the white heat they exhaled stuck to their eyebrows and eyelashes, which quickly condensed into crystal clear ice balls, and the fluff and exposed hair of the cotton hats were all dyed white by frost and snow; The beautiful little faces are frozen white and red, making them even more handsome, charming, and moving.

Fu Lanhua looked at the appearance of the two of them at this time, and suddenly felt pity. "Take a break." She took out a handkerchief from her pocket and handed it to Xiong Yan, and said with concern: "Wipe your sweat, are you tired?" ”

"Sister Orchid, you can use it, I have it." Xiong Yan took out her handkerchief and wiped her face and said, "I'm not too tired, no matter how tired I am, I have to practice." ”

Ye Hong praised and said: "Good look, ambitious." From now on, we must change the problem of being petty and crying, and I am the same, we are all soldiers, so we must have the appearance and style of soldiers. We all have to learn from Sister Orchid in the future, right? ”

"Learn from me? Let me tell you the truth, we don't need to do anything earth-shattering, we just need to do our own work well, and even if we go wherever we go in the future, whether we are in the army or rehabilitated and returned to the locality, we must be worthy of our own conscience, worthy of the training of the army, and worthy of our fathers and mothers and fellow villagers in our hometowns, and this is enough. ”

"Well, Orchid is so right. My parents also told me the same thing, and asked me to study hard and train in the army. Xiong Yan muttered: "I just always miss my parents and their ......"

Ye Hong was anxious: "Look, what I just said is good, I made a mistake again." I'm afraid that you'll make others feel uncomfortable. ”

It can be seen that Ye Hong is actually very the lips, but in her heart, like Xiong Yan, she is homesick and misses her parents, but she doesn't talk about it.

Of course, Fu Lanhua also has a deep understanding of this. Yes, a student who has just walked out of the school gate, a girl who has never left her parents since she was a child, suddenly came to the north where she was unfamiliar with her life, can she miss home? Can you miss your parents? What's more, Xiong Yancai is a girl who has just turned sixteen.

It stands to reason that Ye Hong and Xiong Yan are both children who grew up in the army with their parents, and they are no strangers to life in the army, why do they still miss their parents so much? Maybe this is the common nature of human beings, or it is human nature.

The early morning wind in the north was like a knife, and when I trained for a while just now, my body felt hot, but after a short rest, there was a cold wind blowing, Fu Lanhua's body shook, and I couldn't help but shiver. She asked, "Are you cold?" ”

Ye Hong and Xiong Yan replied at the same time: "Cold." ”

"Alright, let's keep practicing." Fu Lanhua stood up and said, "Let's practice walking in steps, this subject is Xiong Yan's weakest one, and we must practice it quickly." ”

Ye Hong said: "Sister Orchid, I think Xiong Yan's problem with walking is in swinging arms and kicking legs, as soon as she hears the password to walk in steps, the two are out of balance, according to me, let's practice swinging arms and kicking first, and it will be better after getting used to it, right?" ”

"Well, the suggestion is good, just do as you say." Fu Lanhua said: "My name is password, Ye Hong will demonstrate, and Xiong Yan will do it." ”

The two replied in unison, "Yes!" ”
