Chapter 2: Enlistment (Class 5) Dragon City

Yunsu sat on the bus and looked at the haggard mother and the gray-haired grandfather standing in the crowd, his heart was full of mixed feelings, full of reluctance, full of helplessness, tears rolled in his eyes, he wanted to jump out of the car now, and shouted at his mother and grandfather: "I don't want to go, I want to stay, I don't go to that strange place, I'm still young, I'm still a child, you can't bear to leave me like this, let me go to the end of the world, let me live with a group of people I have never seen for two years." ”

Yun Su couldn't help it, because he saw Lao Kang next to him standing next to him looking at him, his eyes full of the same thoughts as himself. Looking out of the car, Lao Kang's father and mother came, the old couple stood in the crowd, silently watching their son and classmates hugging each other, Lao Kang's father looked at his son, who had grown up by his side since he was a child, and at that moment he seemed to see himself back then, his lips moved slightly, but he didn't say anything, just waved his hand to his son.

Lao Kang pulled Yunsu and pouted to look at his parents, wanting to cry but not daring to cry, sobbing silently, not daring to make a sound. Yun Su hugged Lao Kang's shoulders and looked at his mother and grandfather outside the car, and inadvertently found that there was a figure shaking in the shadow of the street lamp on the side of the crowd, what a familiar figure, so like his father, but the car had already started. Yunsu hurriedly leaned on the car window and stared at the place, but unfortunately the light was too dim to see clearly......

A few dozen minutes later, the car stopped outside the train station. The recruits got out of the car one after another. Many parents were not at ease and came to see them off. The square of the train station was once again crowded. According to the prepared plan, the cadres successively took the recruits into the railway station and got on the platform. Yunsu and Lao Kang were also separated here, and the two partners who had played since childhood hugged each other, complained to each other for a long time, and encouraged each other until they were called away by the cadres.

Yun Su followed Officer Mo back to his team. Officer Mo is the receiving cadre of Longcheng this time, a native of Xiangtan, Hunan Province, not tall, white, it is said that he graduated from college and entered the military academy directly, and served as an officer of the military affairs unit in the Longdi detachment where Yunsu was going to go. When I signed up, Yun Su and Officer Mo met a few times, and I had a good impression of this kind lieutenant officer. At this time, Secretary Mo whispered to comfort Yunsu. Yunsu lowered his head and listened to the leader's persuasion, but his heart had already flown to his home. He was still wondering if the figure he had just seen could be his father. But his father didn't wake up with a hangover at night, how could he come to see him off, and he hid aside. Director Mo looked at Yun Su, who didn't speak, and thought that he was still thinking about his little friend, but he hadn't eased up, sighed softly, patted him on the shoulder, and turned around to arrange for other recruits to prepare to board the car.

Yun Su followed the team silently from the platform towards the train that was already waiting there, but for a moment, he felt that someone was watching him in the distance, and the breath was very familiar. Follow that gaze. It was that moment when time froze, Yun Su looked at the familiar figure that could no longer be familiar, and suddenly felt that he was actually very happy, but he only realized it now. Dozens of steps away, Yunsu's father was standing under the street lamp looking at his son.

"Dad~" Yunsu whispered. As if hearing his son's voice, Yunsu's father raised his hand and waved at him. Silent goodbye, so heartbroken, Yunsu felt that his heart and lungs were about to crack. Tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Men don't flick if they have tears, don't cry." My father's voice lingered in my ears. Yun Su raised his arm, wiped his face, and continued to follow the team, when he was about to board the car, he turned his face, smiled at his father, and shouted loudly: "Dad! Go back! I'll take care of myself. Then he got into the carriage, found a seat and sat down, and didn't look out the window again.

At seven o'clock, the train started, the sound of clicking, slowly sounded, slowly, the train drove out of the platform, with a car of ignorance, a car of youth towards the isolated mystery. On the platform, dozens of parents watched as the long green shadow faded into the twilight......

Longcheng is located in the north-central part of Gui Province, an important town in the southwest, surrounded by mountains in the east, west and north, and has typical karst landform characteristics. Due to the influence of the Longjiang River through the urban area and climate, lithology and structure, a natural basin with river terrace landform and karst landform is superimposed.

In the pre-Qin period, Longcheng belonged to the land of Baiyue, and there were Baiyue branches such as Xiou and Luoyue. Since ancient times, Longcheng has been an area where many ethnic groups gather together, and the Zhuang and Dong are the oldest indigenous ethnic groups in Longcheng, which originated from different Yue tribes in the pre-Qin Baiyue land. There are more than 30 ethnic groups in Longcheng. It is inhabited by 48 ethnic groups, including Zhuang, Han, Miao, Dong, Yao, Hui and Gelao, and ethnic minorities account for more than 52% of the city's total population.

Yun Su looked at the map in the carriage and looked at the introduction of Dragon City. Listening to the clanging sound of the train running, I had a lot of thoughts. A month ago, he was still struggling to repeat his studies, but now that he is repeating, college has become a dream, and it is difficult to realize it in this life. "Will the barracks be like in the TV series, it is very strict, training from morning to night, all day long." Yun Su tilted his head sideways and looked at the greenery outside the window, and muttered silently in his heart: "I hope that this time in the army will be smooth sailing, and I will return safely in two years." ”

There is not much worth describing in the subsequent itinerary, but Yunsu is familiar with a few comrades-in-arms in the same seat, two from Sichuan Province and one from Ma'anshan, all of whom are young and young, and they are all young people who are the same apprehension. At that time, the speed of the green train was limited, and it was only about 100 yards. It is more than 1,200 kilometers from Q City to Dragon City, and it is impossible to go straight due to the topography, and the train transfers once in the magic capital. After a hard day in the car, the scenery outside the car changed. To be precise, there are sugar canes on both sides of the railway that are more than two meters high, and no other vegetation can be seen. Patches of sugarcane fields indicate that they have entered the boundaries of Gui Province.

Gui Province is a major sugar-producing province in the south, and sugar beet is the main source of sugar in the north. In the south, sugarcane is produced, and the sugarcane produced in one province of Gui Province accounts for more than 70% of the country's sugar production. Yunsu, who had been observing the changes in the houses all the way, looked at the sugarcane in his eyes, and lost his mood in an instant. Leaning on the back of the chair, he listened idly to the two Sichuan provincial recruits on the opposite side talking nonsense about the Longmen formation, which sounded like this person who had learned boxing from a local monk since he was a child, had a first-class fight, and had never lost. The one who has followed his fellow villagers to do hard work in other places since he was a child, has seen a lot of the hot and cold world, is used to listening to gossip, and has not learned anything else, so he has learned the ability to carry bricks.

It was about shortly after eating. (At that time, the conditions were limited, and Yunsu ate the dry food he brought, that is, a few packets of instant noodles with ham sausages to solve the problem of an empty stomach.) The train drove up a lengthy railway bridge that was at least a few dozen meters above the water below. As soon as you get on the railway bridge, the surrounding scenery is instantly much brighter, the green mountains and green waters have passed, the high-rise buildings are full of high-rise buildings, and the Great Wall of steel.

One by one, the recruits opened their windows to watch the ferries coming and going, and the road bridge on the other side at the same height as the railway bridge.

"Don't be so curious, in the next few years, you can slowly learn about this old city." Officer Mo next door, looking at the funny appearance of these half-sized young men, said with a smile.

"That's it, it's done." Yun Su looked at Director Mo and smiled embarrassedly, but there was one more pimple in his heart.

Not long after entering Dragon City, the train arrived at the station, Yunsu followed the team and got off the train, and there were already several dark green military vehicles waiting there outside the station. After getting on the bus, we depart from the railway station in the south of the city, pass through the factory area in the neighboring suburbs, and enter the downtown area.

All the way, Longcheng is the largest industrial city in Guizhou Province, a national II. type city, one of the five major automobile cities, an important industrial town in the southwest region, a comprehensive transportation hub, a trade and logistics center, and the only city in the country with FAW, Dongfeng, SAIC and Sinotruk and other four major automobile group vehicle manufacturers, an important channel for China's inland to ASEAN, a two-way product processing trade base and logistics transit base city with ASEAN, and a distribution hub city for the southwest sea channel. Therefore, this city is very large, and there are special treatments for military vehicles, which can meet red lights without stopping, and traffic police open the road.

In this way, the military vehicle drove for more than an hour before it drove out of the city and bypassed several elevated highways. Turning into a low housing area, and slowly there was more greenery around, Yunsu saw the crops, saw the students with schoolbags on their backs, and the solid and hard cement floor also turned into a black asphalt road. The military vehicle drove into what appeared to be a school, where it would take three months for Yunsu to finish the recruit company and then transfer to the old company.

Got off the bus with the team, and the recruits lined up in a phalanx on the square, and in front of the phalanx stood several cadre-like people, the highest in terms of military rank was only one dime three (one bar with three stars). On the other side of the square was another phalanx, Yun Su counted, and there was a veteran at the head of each row of the twelve rows, and they were followed by soldiers wearing dark green training uniforms like Yun Su, who seemed to be soldiers from other provinces who came first.

"These should be the recruit squad leaders. I don't know where we're going to be told, don't be in that house. Yun Su glanced at the phalanx with his spare eyes, thinking silently in his heart.

Yunsu noticed it when he first entered the door. This square is very large, divided into several areas around the square, and to the east is a training area, full of training equipment, and several training rooms, which looks very spacious.

To the north is a low house, from the appearance of the clean clean, adjacent to the low room is a four-story dormitory building or teaching building-style building, each floor of the room outside the dressing rack, neatly placed cups and towels, Yun Su sharp eyes, at a glance guessed that it is the recruit's dormitory. There seem to be quite a few houses behind this house, which are not very visible.

To the south there is also a low house, which is dilapidated, as if no one has lived in it for many years. There is also a dressing rack neatly under the eaves of the low house, and cups and toothbrushes are neatly placed on it. Adjacent to this low house was a brand-new building, and Yun Su remembered that the door sign said 12th Squadron of the Dragon City Detachment.
