Chapter 50: Congratulations, old birds
After sending off the five team members eliminated in this exercise, the four of us got on another troop carrier, except for a driver and a cadre who escorted the car, that is, our two non-commissioned officers and two conscripts.
"You two conscripts can, I really didn't expect you two to hold on to it until now!" The cadre who escorted the car opened the back window and said to us.
"Thank you, chief, we're just a little luckier, and each of the squad leaders who were eliminated is better than us." Since we did not know the specific duties of the escort cadres, we had to call the chief, and in the face of his praise, our answer was indeed a little deliberately humble, but it was also the truth.
"You guys are really good, on the battlefield, bullets won't go around you just because you're a conscript, luck is also part of your strength." Seeing that the escort cadre's tone was kind, the non-commissioned officer who stayed with us also spoke.
"Squad leader, where are we going now?" Dunxiang couldn't help but ask.
"Don't ask me about this, I'm just like you now, I'm a rookie, where would I know, you should ask him about this." The non-commissioned officer said as he pouted at the co-pilot's escort cadre.
Dunxiang hesitated for a while, but he still chose to keep his mouth shut, after all, in the hands of the old birds of the special operations team, because of the lot of words, he planted too many times.
And the escort cadres in front should have heard their conversation, and said to the rear window again: "Hurry up and rest for a while, we are about to go to the main base of the special operations team, there are many people waiting for you there!" After saying that, he closed the rear window.
The four of us looked at each other, and at the same time chose to shut up, and then found a comfortable position to get ready for a nap. Indeed, for dozens of hours in the jungle, we almost never sleeped, and finally rested for a while, or the kind of people who just sat down for a while and then set off again, and we had to be on guard at all times to prevent the sneak attack of the old birds. I finally fainted for a few hours under the miasma Huo Huo, and after waking up, I was beaten again, who can bear this Nima, no, I just closed my eyes for less than a minute, and the snoring started one after another.
I don't know how long we slept, anyway, when I woke up, the car continued to drive, but at the moment the sweat stains and mud on the body made the body feel very uncomfortable, so I began to rub my hands on my face and body, and the other three people also followed my example and began to rub them in various ways. The escort officer probably heard that our snoring had stopped, so he looked back at us.
"Yo, one by one I still love to be clean, don't worry, I'll give you time to take a shower and change clothes when I get to the place soon." When the escort cadre said this, his face was full of smiles, and he was no longer as fierce as the old birds before, as if we owed them eight million.
The four of us, you look at me, I look at you, our faces are full of exclamation marks and question marks.
There was no word all the way, and the vehicle braked slowly, no longer as sharp as before, and there was no "man on man" that Dunxiang had been talking about before. As before, we quickly got out of the car, immediately lined up, and when we got out of the car, we saw that there were already quite a few people standing in a certain training ground at the base of this special operations team, all of them were like the four of us, all dirty, and there were a few old birds wearing tabby camouflage standing around.
"Don't be so nervous, these are all people like you, who stayed after going through layers of selection and assessment, congratulations, you have initially become a special combat member, go talk to them, maybe there are comrades in your original squadron." The escort cadre walked up to us and said with a smile.
"What? That's it? Dunxiang said with a surprised face, "I thought that a few of us would have to be a few more times before we could pass the customs, but I didn't expect me to be a hairy crab, phew!" I, Dai Dunxiang, will also become a special combat team member today! ”
In fact, not only Dunxiang, but the other three of us were also extremely excited when they heard the news, after all, the hardships of these days were not in vain, and we finally succeeded.
I roughly counted on the training ground, the original team of more than 100 people is now only a dozen people, I don't know if there are any troop carriers to continue to send those who stay, but at that moment I don't have the heart to think about these at all, I looked carefully in the crowd, fortunately, on a step I found Lao Mao who was sitting there resting, and Zhaowei next to Lao Mao.
"Let's go! Dunxiang! Look for Lao Mao! I pulled Dunxiang and ran, Dunxiang was still proud, I don't know if I used too much force, or he really floated, and I almost fell down by this pull.
......
After about twenty minutes on the training ground, after a whistle, seventeen of us gathered, but it was not like the recruit company, each squad came out to select people, but directly let us unload the equipment in the same place, and then we were all driven into the collective bathroom, to tell the truth, that one bath is called a comfortable, if we collect the water in our bath, it is definitely gray and yellow, as long as it is refined a little, it is absolutely a biological weapon.
"! Don't bring it with you! Suddenly, one of the team members shouted.
A group of us ran out of the bathroom with nothing on and went to the locker room. The scene in front of us stunned us, it turned out that all the clothes we put on the bench were gone, and we didn't even have a pair of underwear, what is this? Want us to play streaking?
At this moment, an old bird with the title of major suddenly walked in, although according to the regulations, there is no need to salute in the bathroom, but after all, it is a cadre, we still subconsciously stand upright, and then there are seventeen people standing naked in front of the major, that scene ...... It's kind of spectacular.
"What! You want me to admire the muscles of you stinky boys! Hurry up and change your clothes! The clothes are in the box over there, and they are selected for you according to your size, so take them yourself! With that, he turned and left.
Seeing him walk out, we immediately opened the box and changed into clothes according to our own measurements, to be honest, the tabby camouflage is really much more handsome than our ordinary camouflage uniform. One by one, they looked in the mirror for a long time and were reluctant to leave.
After taking a shower and changing into new military uniforms, we were not taken to the dormitory, nor were we arranged to do anything, but a group of people gathered in the open space outside the bathroom.
"Comrades! Is it comfortable to wash? The major shouted.
"It's comfortable!" We replied in unison.
"Is tabby camouflage handsome!" The Major asked again.
"Handsome!" We all laughed and shouted.
"Okay, everyone assembles in the playground in five minutes! I will issue you with armbands, wear Jing titles, and hold a joining ceremony! After the major finished speaking, he was just about to leave, when he suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "I remember that you rookies always called us old birds before, right?" ”
Hearing him say this, we couldn't help but feel nervous, this Nima, is it possible that before he officially joins the special operations team, he will make us fight again? Either way, or not, this Nima isn't fun.
Looking at the nervousness on our faces, the major laughed out loud: "You nervous hammers, I want to say, congratulations, you have used your strength to prove that you are no longer a rookie, and soon, you will be like us, called old birds behind your back, congratulations, old birds!" Hahaha! ”
Hearing this, we smiled awkwardly, chief, you are a little skinny, it scared us, but what you said is also true, thinking that you are about to be an old bird, hey, there is a little excitement.
