With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Lei Yan returned to the dormitory and greeted everyone as soon as he entered the door.

"Comrades, I'm back."

"Oops, the sun is coming out in the west, and the training maniac is back so early today."

The comrade-in-arms on the top bunk closed the novel in his hand, sat up from the bed and teased.

"Combine work and rest!" Lei Yan smiled and came to his bed and sat down.

"Don't talk nonsense, I still believe others when they say this, you're a madman." Another comrade-in-arms said.

"Little Leizi, is something wrong?"

Lao Pao was a little worried, Miao Lian and Chen Pai regarded this kid as a baby bump, but they had to look at it carefully, and Lao Pao himself liked him more and more.

"I said what's the matter with you, I can't rest?" Lei Yan rolled his eyes and smiled wryly.

Xiwa on the side came over, reached out and touched Lei Yan's forehead, touched her own, and then turned her head and said to the old gun: "Don't worry, squad leader, there is no fever!" ”

"Dizzy!" Lei Yan's eyes rolled over and fell on the bed.

"It's okay, get some sleep, you're going to start sniper training tomorrow, it's pretty uncomfortable." The old cannon said while cutting the callus on the center of his foot with a saber.

"Squad leader, have you been trained as a sniper?"

Hearing this, Lei Yan suddenly became interested.

The veterans have all practiced a little, but it is not comprehensive and not systematic enough.

"What's the subject?" Lei Yan came to the old cannon's side.

"I'm exposed to the most basic training, there's nothing to teach you!" The old cannon shrugged, for the training of snipers, it is really powerless.

"Do you know what is the hardest part of sniper training?"

Lei Yan has thought about this question, isn't a sniper a sharpshooter, no matter how you practice, marksmanship must be the most important, and it is not difficult to lie on the shooting range every day to shoot a gun, but why do you think that a sniper is not good?

"Why do you ask this?" The old cannon glanced at him.

"Be mentally prepared in advance!" Lei Yan said with a smile.

The old cannon raised his head, rubbed his chin with the back of the knife with his right hand, thought for a moment, turned his head to stare at Lei Yan and said, "Two words, patience!" ”

Lei Yan frowned, patience? What does that mean?

"See for yourself!" The old cannon patted him on the shoulder: "Go back to your bed, I'm going to sleep." ”

"Oh!" Lei Yan agreed, and returned to his bed with a blank face.

Lying on the bed, I couldn't fall asleep over and over, and after a long time, the strange snoring of my comrades sounded in the dormitory.

I don't know if it's excited or scared, no matter how hard Lei Yan tries, he is not sleepy, he turned his head and looked at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock, and he still couldn't sleep.

In desperation, Lei Yan had no choice but to sit up, thinking that it would be better to go out to breathe, and maybe fall asleep after relaxing his mood.

Putting on military boots, Lei Yan walked out of the dormitory lightly.

The air at night has a fresh smell, a bright moon hangs high, and the sky is full of stars.

Taking a deep breath, Lei Yan walked slowly on the path, the breeze blowing on his face was cool and comfortable, Lei Yan stretched his waist and felt extremely relaxed.

Suddenly, he heard a thudding sound.

As a scout, the sound was all too familiar, the muffled sound of a fist hitting a sandbag.

"It's so late, is there anyone still training?"

Lei Yan curiously followed the sound and soon saw a figure in the fighting arena.

The outline is a little familiar, but I can't see the face clearly when it's dark, I only see the person hitting the sandbag desperately, every punch and kick is full of force, the sandbag is shaken violently, obviously a master.

Out of curiosity, Lei Yan walked over, took a closer look, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Chen Pai? ”

Hearing the voice, Chen Pai looked up, took a deep breath and said, "It's you, why did you run out so late without sleeping?" ”

"I can't sleep, come out to breathe, why are you still practicing?"

Lei Yan has always felt that he is desperate enough, and he can't imagine that someone is more ruthless than him, and he is still playing so hard in the middle of the night.

Chen Pai walked to the side and sat down, picked up a bottle of water and took a sip of it, "It's nothing, I'm used to it, and it's uncomfortable to be inactive." ”

Lei Yan came to Chen Pai and sat down and asked, "Do you practice like this every day?" ”

"Almost!" Chen Pai nodded.

"You're a platoon commander, why are you still playing so hard?"

Lei Yan has always believed that Chen Platoon is the best soldier in the reconnaissance company, not only a top student of the Army Command Academy, but also has a super strong military quality, and is a man of the hour in the reconnaissance company and even the whole regiment, and is a real professional soldier.

"What are you a soldier for?" Chen Pai didn't answer Lei Yan's words, and asked rhetorically.

"I don't know, maybe that's my fate."

Lei Yan is telling the truth, he has wanted to be a soldier since he was a child, he likes the army and admires soldiers, but life is forced to go to the construction site to move bricks.

But he didn't expect fate to send him to the barracks and become a soldier, and his childhood dream became a reality, but what was the purpose of being a soldier, he didn't think about it, he just wanted to be a soldier, if he had to say, it was to protect his family and defend the country.

But that is not a personal goal, but the mission and responsibility of every soldier.

"What about you, why are you so desperate for?" Lei Yan was curious.

"In order to enter the special forces and become the best soldier." When it came to the special forces, Chen Pai was in awe.

"In my opinion, you are already the best soldier." Lei Yan said.

"It's not even close!"

Chen Pai said with a smile: "It has always been my dream to become a special soldier, and I have been preparing since I was in high school, studying in a military school, and entering a reconnaissance company, all in order to be able to enter the special forces one day." ”

Lei Yan was surprised: "Preparing since high school? It must have been six or seven years, right? ”

"Almost!" Chen Pai nodded.

"Then why is it still in the reconnaissance company?"

Lei Yan was full of surprise, is it so difficult for special forces to enter, Chen Pai is so powerful, he has not entered after six or seven years of preparation, so it is hopeless to do what he should do.

"Although I am a veteran, I have only been in the reconnaissance company for more than a year, and the selection of special forces must be carried out among the scouts of the whole military region. Chen Pai explained.

"Oh, that means you're definitely going to this year's special forces selection." Lei Yan asked.

"Of course, I'm going to wait for this day for so many years." Chen Pai smiled.

"That's why you're practicing so hard?" Lei Yan said.

"Yes, everything is preparing for the entry into the special forces." Chen Pai took a deep breath.

"There's a question I don't understand!" Lei Yan tilted his head and thought for a while: "Special forces and scouts are both People's Liberation Army, what's the difference?" ”

"Then what do you think is the difference between our reconnaissance company and those ordinary companies?" Chen Pai asked rhetorically.

"We're better than them!" Lei Yan blurted out.

"One thing, recruits want to join the reconnaissance company, and scouts want to join the special forces, and when they are soldiers, they must be the best soldiers." Chen Pai patted Lei Yan on the shoulder.

"Are special forces the best soldiers?" Lei Yan was a little skeptical.

"At least better than us, but that's only one aspect, more importantly, special forces, the highest honor for scouts." Chen Pai said with a serious face.
