Chapter 169: A New Day
There was nothing to do all night, and before dawn the next day, the expected whistle sounded, and an emergency assembly began.
The recruits woke up from their sleepiness, it was pitch black outside the window, only the faint light was on, the crickets were no longer chirping, and the moon was hidden.
Hearing the whistle of the emergency assembly, Xiao Mubai slowly opened his eyes, turned over and sat up, and began to put on his military uniform.
Although he really wanted to lie on the bed and didn't want to get up at all, Xiao Mubai shuddered when he thought of the eight-hour punishment.
After a brief battle of wills, overcoming laziness and exhaustion, Xiao Mubai began to act.
People have inertia, and every excuse will become an understanding of making excuses next time, and it is better to form a habit.
Since getting up at five o'clock yesterday, the barracks are gradually training the recruits to form habits, and Xiao Mubai is quickly adapting.
"Quick!"
As a temporary sergeant, Xiao Mubai must lead by example.
Six hours of rest, yesterday's brutal training, the recruits did not rest well, and their bodies have not yet recovered.
Xiao Mubai is the same, his thighs are aching faintly, and he feels like he is pulling eggs.
Most struggled to get up, but some didn't.
He was obviously awake, to be awake to be exact, but he didn't open his eyes, and just lay there.
"Anderson, get up!" Xiao Mubai put on his military uniform, then walked over and stretched out his hand to push him.
This person is a young white man, his new name is Anderson, he speaks French, and his nationality is unknown, but it is estimated that he should be from Egypt, and Xiao Mubai also calls him in French.
He apparently listened, but remained unmoved.
"Hurry up!" Xiao Mubai urged him again.
"I'm giving up, Norn, don't call me again."
Suddenly, the white man opened his eyes, roared, and looked at Xiao Mubai with angry eyes.
Xiao Mubai was stunned for a moment, and all the recruits in the barracks were stunned, some because his voice was too loud, and some of them heard what he said clearly.
The atmosphere suddenly stopped, and no one expected that someone had already given up, and this was the first one in the barracks.
Xiao Mubai was silent for a moment, did not push him again, but stared at him deeply, and then spoke lightly.
"Give up, give up, I won't give up."
Xiao Mubai didn't look at him again, then turned around and walked into the bathroom.
Xiao Mubai is an egoist, although he has known the team members for a day, and he can't talk about feelings, but he has some sympathy.
Although recruits are teammates, they are more competitors, and one less person means less competition.
Xiao Mubai will not keep Anderson, because he does not have this qualification, and under this kind of harsh training, no one knows when he will collapse and give up.
Once Anderson gives up, it means that he will not be able to enter the Foreign Army for life, which is a cruel reality.
Xiao Mubai understood him, because Xiao Mubai didn't want to move himself, in addition to the pain and exhaustion of his whole body, there was also the pain of drilling his heart at the soles of his feet.
I will not give up, this sentence is not only for myself, but also for Anderson, to show my determination.
Xiao Mubai just kept it out of politeness, it didn't mean much, to put it bluntly, it had nothing to do with him whether this person went or stayed, Xiao Mubai just did his duty as a temporary sergeant.
When Anderson decided to give up, Xiao Mubai no longer regarded him as a teammate, and it won't be long before Xiao Mubai will forget about this person, as if he never appeared.
There is nothing more than this in the camp of iron and the soldiers of flowing water.
After washing up quickly, Xiao Mubai cleaned up and went downstairs, Xiao Mubai did not have any sadness, pessimism, grief, and other negative emotions, some were just dignified.
Once again, training is not only a strengthening of physical fitness, but also a test of will.
That's what follows, the elimination that never stops, and waits for the end of the one-month elimination time.
Wow.
The military boots stepped on the stairs, and the pain under his feet was still piercing, and he could not recover at all for six hours.
Even if Xiao Mubai secretly used the medicine, it was only to relieve it, and it would take more time for the wound to heal.
The following is already full, and Xiao Mubai is the last one, because Anderson is delayed a little.
Standing in the middle of the team, Xiao Mubai stood up, and in front of him was the expressionless sergeant major.
The next scenario is conceivable, when the number of people is checked, Anderson is immediately found to be absent.
In addition, there were also people in the other two classes who did not arrive.
"Report!" Xiao Mubai took a step forward.
"Anderson, a soldier from the 15080703 squad, quit."
When Xiao Mubai spoke, everyone stared at him, more than forty pairs of eyes, including the sergeant major.
Xiao Mubai, as Anderson's temporary sergeant, naturally answered by Xiao Mubai.
Anderson gave up like this, but the young Russian, who suffered from heat stroke during the day, persisted, and Mark, the English-American soldier who usually giggled and laughed, also persisted.
Few of the people who were able to get here were scrap wood, but there were still people who gave up.
The sergeant major motioned for Xiao Mubai to return to the team, and then asked the whole platoon to rest for a while, and then walked into the barracks.
It's time to start dealing with the people who give up, everyone is silent, no one gloats.
Because today's scene is likely to happen to me in the future.
The feeling of the dead rabbit and the sad feeling of the fox, the atmosphere is very depressing.
The recruits stood outside, the sergeant major walked into the barracks, and it was conceivable that the people who gave up were soon leaving.
It didn't take long for Anderson and the others to come out, dressed in military uniforms, neatly tuned.
Then, though he didn't want to see it, when he made eye contact again, Anderson's eyes turned red.
There was nothing to see under the dark night sky, the light didn't shine into Anderson's eyes, and no one saw Anderson cry.
Anderson staggered, walking in front of the 150807 platoon of recruits, struggling in front of everyone's eyes.
Xiao Mubai felt his mood.
The sergeant major kept everyone watching, and didn't let anyone leave. This is a baptism of spirit, and all recruits will see the cruelty of elimination.
Step by step, Anderson left in humiliation, without saying goodbye, gradually disappearing, he gave up and became a deserter.
It is foreseeable that on the road of life in the future, if he can't find his confidence, he will be a wasted person, a living dead who has lost his self-confidence.
And Xiao Mubai is unwilling to be such a person.
Life is like the splendor of summer flowers, death is like the quiet beauty of autumn leaves, if you want to live, you must live a wonderful life.
"This is just the tip of the iceberg, and you will see more people give up." Staring at the more than forty recruits, the sergeant major stood in front of him and spoke aloud.
There were recruits who withdrew, Xiao Mubai didn't know what the sergeant major was feeling, listening to his tone was very high-pitched, but Xiao Mubai felt that he was regretful.
It's a pity that if you see more, you will become cold-blooded and indifferent, and this is the case with the sergeant major.
Xiao Mubai will eventually embark on this road.
