Because there were relatively few horse-drawn carts, ox-carts, and mule carts in the stockade, and there were many women and children of old and young people, except for a few wounded people who could ride in the carts, the other soldiers could only walk on both sides of the carts.

Xu Zheyou and other twelve soldiers completed the 30-kilogram, five-kilometer and seventeen-minute run, and they were even more exhausted.

Although men and women are not tired of working together, the villagers are all sad at this time, watching the girls cry one by one into red-eyed horns, and the soldiers don't know how to comfort them.

In order to refresh the soldiers and ease the sadness of the villagers, Yan Zhi said: "Brothers, how about teaching everyone to sing a song?" ”

"Good ......"

The soldiers were tired and bored when they walked, and when they heard the words, they almost applauded in unison.

Yesterday -

In the morning, after Yan Zhi led the forty soldiers who got the word "war" written on the slip of paper and left, Zhou Youcai continued to train with the remaining soldiers.

Before leaving, Yan Zhi gave an order to the whole company: All soldiers must not disclose the team's outing to anyone.

Of course, in order to ensure the secret and suddenness of the raid, Yan Zhi did not tell the soldiers about the decision to raid the Winged Valley, including Zhou Youcai, who did not know where Yan Zhi was going and when he would come back.

Zhou Youcai led the soldiers out for training. The commander said that now the brothers should run hard, run with their lives, and train their physical strength first, so that they can gain the upper hand in the battle when they clash with the enemy.

At noon, when he was eating, Nie Yuanfeng's adjutant Li Ping'an drove a jeep with two soldiers to the Brothers in the suburbs and sent a big greeting sticker.

Nie Yuanfeng's adjutant Li Ping'an looked arrogant, holding a horsewhip in his hand, and said to the soldiers of the Brotherhood Company who were eating with his nostrils: "Tomorrow is the day of the martial arts competition between Major Nie Yuanfeng and Colonel Yan, and you are all present to cheer for your commander." When the time comes, let you see, what is a real soldier. ”

The soldiers bowed their heads to eat, and no one paid attention to Li Ping'an, who was wearing shiny riding boots.

These soldiers have all crawled and fought in the flames of war and the dead, and they don't look down on the arrogant little white-faced Li Ping'an who has never been on the battlefield.

The little white face wearing a captain's uniform is indeed spiritual, but it is useful, and when he goes to the battlefield, he does not pee in the rain of bullets, so he is called a real man and a pure man.

Li Ping'an is just a second lieutenant adjutant, and his military rank is lower than Zhou Youcai, so what is there to be angry about. The nostrils are facing the sky, Niu B coaxes, and he feels great, but in the eyes of the veteran, he actually doesn't fart.

Seeing that the soldiers were eating with their heads bowed one by one, ignoring themselves, Li Ping'an's face was a little unbearable: "Our Major Nie Yuanfeng Nie became a major with real skills, not like those white-faced scholars who rely on relationships to climb up, can only talk on paper, and can't fight in actual combat." ”

"Smack......

“pia……”

As soon as Li Ping'an's words fell, there was a sudden sound of the bottom of the bowl slamming the table and smashing chopsticks, and several angry soldiers immediately stood up.

Zhou Youcai sat still and shouted, "Eat!" ”

"Phew!"

"What the hell!"

"What's wrong with your guys pooping today and not wiping their feet, actually letting a fly in, disgusting labor and management eating, isn't it?"

The soldiers sat down one after another, picked up the chopsticks and picked up the bowl, and deliberately knocked the bowl to the tinkle when picking up the rice, and everyone muttered in their mouths, scolding their father and mother.

Zhou Youcai put down the bowl, got up and said, "Adjutant Li, I accepted the post on behalf of Chief Yan, you go back first!" ”

Watching Li Ping'an walk out of the barracks, the soldier Ma Jiao said in a loud voice: "What kind of special mother's thing, a white maggot came out in broad daylight and a disgusting person was eating, hurry up and go back to the toilet and lie down!" Bah! ”

Jiao Dalei, who was burly and had a national face, had a loud voice, and more than 100 people who were eating could hear it, and suddenly, all the soldiers knocked on the bowl with chopsticks and coaxed: "Oh, oh, oh...... The maggots go back to the toilet......"

In the afternoon, Zhou Youcai took the soldiers to practice assassination skills in the camp, Li Ping'an's jeep drove into the company playground again, and from the car stepped down Second Lieutenant Li Ping'an and Captain Hong Long, and a handsome young man, also wearing black sunglasses of the same style as Yan Zhi, wearing white clothes, white hats and white leather shoes, looking like the son of a powerful family.

Zhou Youcai watched Hong Long and Li Ping'an be very respectful to this young man from a distance, and knew that this young man was not small.

"Captain Hong!"

Zhou Youcai saluted and said. He knew Hong Long.

Hong Long also knew Zhou Youcai. In the past, Zhou Youcai was General Nalan's orderly, usually smart, and slowly rose to the rank of second lieutenant, and was just promoted to lieutenant not long ago, becoming Yan Zhi's adjutant.

Hong Long returned the gift. Although he has a higher rank than Zhou Youcai, Zhou Youcai is the person of General Nalan, and even the colonel in the military region has to give three points when he sees it.

Hong Long watched the soldiers practice the simple to extreme assassination technique on the field, and couldn't help but pout and smile, putting on an expression that was not worth caring. After walking around, he asked, "Lieutenant Zhou, why don't you see Major Yan?" ”

These people came here, and they really didn't have a good heart. Zhou Youcai followed Hong Long and said, "Chief Yan has something to go out and is not in the barracks. ”

"Oh?" Hong Long stopped, turned his face and asked Zhou Youcai, "Major Yan is not in the barracks?" ”

Zhou Youcai said: "Yes! ”

"Lieutenant Zhou, didn't Major Yan say where he went?" Li Ping'an followed behind the young man in white and said, "Tomorrow is the day of the competition between Major Nie and Major Yan, isn't it a little ...... for Major Yan to choose this time to go out" Li Ping'an deliberately wanted to stop talking.

Zhou Youcai said: "Chief Yan's outing is a military secret, and it is inconvenient to tell him. ”

Li Ping'an smiled and said loudly: "Military secrets? I think it's a deliberate avoidance! ”

Zhou Youcai's face was a little dark, but he didn't have a seizure. The heart said, what kind of goods do others don't know about you Li Ping'an, I don't know, you are especially an official who relies on his whiskers to shoot horses, and in terms of real skills, you are not as good as me Zhou Youcai.

Li Ping'an's voice was so loud that many soldiers in the brotherhood heard it, so they stopped training and stared at Li Ping'an with eyes like knives.

Li Ping'an held the horsewhip in his right hand and tapped his left palm, looked at people with his nostrils and said to the soldiers of the Brotherhood: "What's the matter, you guys are looking at me one by one, do you want to make a mistake?" ”

The soldiers dared not speak out. An officer like Li Ping'an has no use to go to the battlefield to fight a fart, and all his skills are used to pat himself on the back. This kind of person can't afford to offend the most, and if any soldier accidentally offends him, he will die under the black gun one day. It's just that the soldiers die on the battlefield, and they can also have a good reputation, but what they are most afraid of is being shot by their own people, and finally being accused of desertion, not only will they become unjust souls after their deaths, but even their families will be implicated.

The young man in white suddenly asked Zhou Youcai in a warm voice: "Does Major Yan know that tomorrow is the day when he and Major Nie Yuanfeng compete." ”

He spoke in a very soft and gentle voice, and he was a well-educated person when he heard it, and he behaved politely, which made people feel extraordinary, but Zhou Youcai felt that the bones of this young man in white were full of arrogance.

Zhou Youcai saw that this person did not look like he was from a military background, but the non-military people who could bring Hong Long and Li Ping'an into the military camp were definitely not small.

Zhou Youcai has been a service soldier under General Nalan for many years, and he has already learned to be tactful, he smiled and said politely to the young man in white: "Chief Yan naturally remembers that he and Major Nie once agreed to meet friends with martial arts and learn from each other, which is beneficial to the harmony of the military circles and the promotion of soldiers' skills. However, Chief Yan has handled a lot of military affairs recently, and it is very likely that he will forget about this matter. ”

Zhou Youcai's words were very tactful, and he did not answer the question of the young man in white directly, but it also made the other party unable to be angry.

Li Ping'an sneered: "I think, Major Yan forgot that his agreement with Major Nie was fake, and he was afraid that he would lose the competition with Major Nie and be embarrassed, so it was true to find a reason to hide!" ”
