"Old squad leader, how are you preparing?"

Before Xiao Chen entered the door, he patted the snow on his hat in the open space outside the door, but as soon as he entered the door, a stream of water vapor condensed a white patch on his eyebrows and beard.

The seven soldiers in the cooking squad were working nervously and busily, today was the third day after the end of the company meeting, although the training plan had changed due to the weather conditions, Xiao Chen directly increased the difficulty, instead of ordering the whole company to go back to the dormitory to study.

Thirty kilometers of rapid march, in order to try to ensure that there are fewer sick numbers after a training, Xiao Chen ordered to urgently make a few pots of brown sugar ginger soup to be brought to the finish line with the troop carrier.

The cooking squad leader is an old non-commissioned officer from the land of Qilu, and his specialty is all kinds of pastries, such as brown sugar ginger soup, which is pediatric, and now the two recruits who have just been assigned to the cooking class are busy.

The old squad leader was scooping the boiled ginger soup into the thermos bucket, and when he heard Xiao Chen's voice, he happily welcomed:

"The company commander is here? These are the last two barrels, full and ready to go. ”

After saluting several other fighters in return, Xiao Chen smiled and leaned in front of the steaming spoon stretched out by the old squad leader, and tasted the ginger soup that had just come out of the pot, and the sweet but spicy taste instantly turned into a warm current and rushed to his chest and abdomen.

Facing the old squad leader's inquiring gaze, Xiao Chen grinned and gave a thumbs up: "This." ”

The old squad leader laughed: "It's a blessing that a company commander like you has come to the third company." It's been a few years, and there hasn't been such a big fight in winter. Seriously, looking at these little bunnies so comfortable now, it's really not as good as the generation. ”

Xiao Chen felt a little itch on his eyebrows, raised his hand to wipe the water droplets condensed by the mist, and then shook his head and retorted:

"Old squad leader, it's not right for you to say this, we don't have a chance to practice. Now that you have the opportunity, you will definitely have a satisfactory performance. The old man said that the world is yours and ours, but after all, it is ours. ”

"Okay, okay, I know that you are a high level of the Governor of Dalian."

"Thanks to the guidance of an experienced veteran like you, otherwise, this time the preparation is not sufficient, maybe after the training, I will have to be called by the battalion commander to train for a while, and I will have to write an inspection when I go back."

The requirement of the current environment is production safety, and if he hadn't begged Gao Cheng for the forced march training of the Third Company, and made a lot of guarantees back and forth, it would definitely not have been possible.

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace, you have such a consciousness at a young age, and the third company will definitely have a future in the hands of the company commander. I'm very satisfied that an old guy like me can exert some residual heat and contribute to the progress of Sanlian. ”

The old squad leader can be said to be the only old qualification in the whole company.

The fourth-term non-commissioned officer has been in the army for longer than Shi Jindu. Neither Zong Pingchuan nor him dared to raise a stand in front of such a veteran.

Being able to get such a veteran's affirmation, Xiao Chen felt that at least he was not on the wrong path now.

The last spoonful of ginger soup was poured into the thermos bucket by the old squad leader, covered the lid, and beckoned a few soldiers who had already packed their backpacks and equipment to send them to the troop carrier outside the door, and the old squad leader nodded to Xiao Chen:

"Company commander, it's time to blow the whistle."

The whistle sounded quickly and shortly, and at the same time as the whistle was blown, Xiao Chen ran to the door of Lianmen and put on his backpack and equipment.

One and a half minutes, this is the time set by Xiao Chen. Even though it was freezing and snowy now, Xiao Chen's requirements had not changed. A soldier in the second class dragged into the team, Xiao Chen raised his wrist to look at the time, one minute, thirty-one seconds.

"The second shift is all out of the ranks, fifty push-ups, and they will return to the team after they are done."

Strict, this is the first request that Xiao Chen made to Sanlian. However, any violation of the rules and regulations during the training period will be subject to strict punishment.

The biting cold quickly penetrated into the bones of everyone in the second class along the palms of their hands, and the taste of pain made the last soldier who was already guilty couldn't help but shed tears.

In just a second, Xiao Chen's thunderous wrist made everyone present tremble, but no one dared to stand out against such a punishment. In the past three days, Xiao Chen has instilled in them the concept that if a second is delayed on the battlefield, there will be an additional blood hole in the brain.

In peacetime, that is, soldiers, the third company must go deep into the bone marrow.

The second class was a collective at this time, and the second class leader roared the numbers, from one to fifty. Each sound melted the snowflakes in front of him a little, until the snowflakes smiled, the ice flakes appeared, and the fifty push-ups were done.

They who are full of mist and frost and snow on their faces seem to be very different, but they are exactly the same.

Looking at the hundred or so people in front of him who had adapted to the wind and snow, Xiao Chen said sonorously:

"According to the report of the superiors, there are traces left by the enemy in Mazi Mountain, 30 kilometers away from the company headquarters. The higher authorities asked us to quickly rush to the place to conduct on-the-spot reconnaissance, and demanded that we follow the team closely and not be left behind. Now, let's go. ”

Presetting the enemy's situation and adding passwords is a trick to instill a combat mentality.

Xiao Chen didn't understand it before, but after a training, he knew the benefits.

One class, one class after another, when the cooking class followed at the end with the stove, Xiao Chen looked at Zong Pingchuan and said in an encouraging tone:

"Instructor, I know this is a test of your physical fitness, and I will move forward with you."

Zong Pingchuan is in his thirties.

I have to admit that age is indeed a big obstacle for soldiers, and when you get older, your physical function declines. Zong Pingchuan wanted to participate in this forced march, and he directly asked the battalion commander for his consent, and the newly appointed deputy company commander, that is, the platoon commander, was on duty for him today.

The spirit of the three companies is commendable, which is why the battalion commander promised him.

Facing Xiao Chen's concern, Zong Pingchuan smiled:

"Company commander, don't underestimate the old comrades. That's it, you can't die. I know that I will be the bottom of the whole company today, and I will be disgraced. But it's better to lose face than to have no attitude and determination. ”

Xiao Chen shrugged when he heard this: "Then what else can I say?" Let's go, old comrade. ”

The soldiers of the automobile squad could only watch the two company commanders put the off-road vehicle without sitting, ran out of the company headquarters side by side with equipment on their backs, and followed the footsteps of the whole company in front of them, wanting to run into the snowy distance.

"We're going crazy, forget it, I'm crazy too, why did I want to be a car soldier in the first place. Otherwise, I'll be running with them at this time. It's a cold day, and it's quite exciting to think about it. ”

Thinking so, the car soldier stepped on the accelerator and quickly followed the footsteps of Xiao Chen and Zong Pingchuan.

At the battalion headquarters, Gao Cheng held the binoculars and watched the third company go away, and suddenly smiled at the battalion commander and said:

"This kid has some of the ability I had back then."

The battalion commander smiled when he heard this, picked up a copy from the table, and admired Xiao Chen's handwriting: "You are not afraid of blowing through the cowhide, you had this ability back then?" ”
