After the exercise, the whole brigade returned to normal after a few days of rest.

Since Ye Song and Dou Miao were officially recognized by the whole company, their training life can be described as extremely easy. After completing the usual self-catering every day, the drill and learning of the whole company was not difficult for them at all, and there were far more entertainment activities here than in the military base, so they even had the illusion that joining the army was enjoyable.

However, after less than a week of such an ordinary life, Quanlian was busy again.

The retirement season is coming, and the camel bell rings.

Another group of key role models in the army are about to take off their uniforms and end what was originally thought to be a long but in fact extremely short military career.

For Ye Song and Dou Miao, the departure of the company veterans is a little sad, but not to the point of being inseparable, after all, they have not been here for a long time, and their feelings are naturally not so deep, so that the whole company is probably the only one who is the most heartless.

"Have you heard, the number of people who are discharged today is not nearly half more than in previous years?"

"No way, according to you, the veteran is almost finished."

"Don't believe it, you'll find out when the order is read later."

Ye Song heard the conversation between the two veterans on the side, and couldn't help but think of his old squad leader Dai Jiang, and he didn't know if he could be successfully promoted this year, so he called and asked after sending his mobile phone on the weekend.

"Command of Army Group C of the Northwest Army! According to the relevant regulations and the actual situation of our department, the following personnel will be discharged from active service. Liu Jian, Xia Keqi, Gao Junhui, Pang Tong......"

Ye Song stood in the queue and listened to the brigade political commissar read out the names, and there were indeed a lot of people in the secret passage.

"Ye Tao, Yang Yunwu, Cheng Hai, Shen Lingfei ......"

Shen Lingfei? Ye Song suddenly raised his head and looked at the rostrum in shock.

The boss wants to be discharged from the army? Impossible! With his strength, even if he does not continue to be a leading commander in combat, he is completely qualified for technical guidance, how can such a talented unit be willing to let go?

After returning to the camp and disbanding, Ye Song and the equally anxious Dou Miao immediately went to the company headquarters to apply to go to the office building.

"Is there anything you have going there for?" Liu Bin asked curiously.

"We heard the name of Shen Lingfei Shen veteran in the discharge order just now, and we want to confirm it." Doumiao replied.

Liu Bin said: "You don't need to confirm that he is indeed going to be discharged from the army, and his application for discharge from the army is still approved by us." ”

"Instructor, the two of us were assigned to the military base as soon as we got off the company, and we have been taken care of by him for more than a year, and we want to talk to him again before leaving."

"Then go ahead!" Wei Xingyou said suddenly.

"What?" Liu Bin asked in surprise.

"Approved, go ahead."

When the two left, Liu Bin looked at Wei Xingyou helplessly and said, "Although they have won honor for our company, you can't be so used to them." ”

"It's not that I'm used to them," Wei Xingyou lit a cigarette and said: "Their skills should be taught by veteran Shen, and it's completely understandable that they want to send some." ”

Liu Bin silently lit a cigarette and sighed: "It's not good at this time of year!" ”

After the two rushed to the office building, they rushed towards Shen Lingfei's room.

"Boss, are you really going to be discharged...... Hello Brigadier! ”

As soon as they entered the room, they saw that the brigade commander was also in the house, and the two of them were suddenly a little restrained.

"Yo, squad leader, you have other guests, then you talk first, and I won't bother."

Yan Bai got up with a smile and walked outside, and whispered when he walked to Ye Songsheng: "I'll leave it to you." ”

After seeing Yan Bai leave, the two closed the door and stared at Shen Lingfei silently.

"What? You haven't seen me for a long time and want to talk to me? Shen Lingfei said with a smile.

"Why?"

Ye Song looked into his eyes and asked solemnly.

Shen Lingfei spread his hands and said: "It's nothing, my military service period has expired, isn't it normal to be discharged from the army?" ”

"Do you think this reason can convince us?"

Shen Lingfei smiled, and suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Since we left the military base, we don't seem to have eaten together, don't go back tonight, I'll say hello to your company commander later, and let you taste my craftsmanship before leaving here, let's talk at the dinner table if you have something." ”

……

"Boss, are you really not going to stay?"

After being full of wine and food, Ye Song took out the tea set from Shen Lingfei's cabinet and asked while making tea.

Shen Lingfei smiled helplessly: "How many times have I answered this question to you, why are you still asking?" ”

Doumiao burped and said, "We want to know the specific reason." ”

"Why?" Shen Lingfei silently took two puffs of cigarette, slowly exhaled and said, "I'm tired." ”

"Huh?"

Seeing the stunned appearance of the two, Shen Lingfei smiled and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Ye Song scratched his head and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that people like you are tired, it's a little incredible." ”

In Ye Song and Dou Miao's opinion, Shen Lingfei is definitely made of super metal forging, a humanoid perpetual motion machine, always so energetic, and any attack is a floating cloud in front of his eyes, even if he bombards him with a nuclear bomb, he feels that he can calmly walk out of the mushroom cloud, and even light a cigarette by the way...... But now he himself actually said that he was tired?

"Why can't I say I'm tired!" Shen Lingfei sighed, "I just wanted to be an ordinary soldier when I joined the army, but by all kinds of coincidences, twenty-one years have passed in a flash, and I have given the most precious time of my life to the army, and the first half of my life should be considered complete." ”

Shen Lingfei looked at the two of them and smiled bitterly: "From the outside, I seem to have inexhaustible energy, but in fact, I have a lot of dark wounds on my body. Seeing that my physical condition is declining year by year, I can't afford to spend any more time here. ”

"Since your body is already overloaded, why don't you train on your own every day, you can stay as an instructor or become a senior technician with your ability."

Shen Lingfei shook his head and said, "This kind of daily training has lasted for twenty-one years, just like when a monk hits the clock for a day, as long as I am still wearing this military uniform, it will never be interrupted." ”

Ye Song was a little speechless and said: "But you also have to divide the situation, why are you so paranoid when your life is gone?" ”

"Paranoia? I feel that it is a kind of belief, and not only me, but veterans in all fields of the army will become legends with their own persistence, and it is precisely because of this persistence that there will be today's Shen Lingfei! ”

Dou Miao pursed her lips and said, "I think this is almost perverted self-discipline." ”

"Hehe, you're right," Shen Lingfei squinted and smiled, "But throughout the history of our army, it is precisely because there are countless perverts like us that they have created one war miracle after another because they have adhered to their beliefs. Now with the rapid development of science and technology, whether it is an upper-level commander or a grassroots soldier, more and more people rely too much on the advantages of scientific and technological equipment, but no matter how thick the armor is, it can't stop the heart-attacking bullets. ”

Ye Song was silent for a long time, looked at the venerable old soldier and sighed: "So you think that since you can't hold on, it's better to leave, and this kind of persistence can be regarded as a happy end." ”

"Well, that's the objective reason why I chose to leave the army."

"Poof—cough, cough, cough!"

Ye Song, who was drinking tea, was choked.

"And there are subjective reasons?"
