The 91st Division is an emergency combat unit, and other units are all on weekends, while the officers and men of the 91st Division are on a single holiday, and every week from Monday to Saturday before dinner is considered training time, during which there are two half-day political education periods and half a day of party day activities, and the rest of the time is used for training or performing some temporary tasks.

Therefore, compared with the training of recruits, the training time after leaving the company has not actually decreased, but because the recruits have mastered the most basic training skills after three months of intensive training, and have initially adapted to the rhythm and training life of the troops, in most cases they will no longer make the recruits feel so nervous and hard.

After watching the news broadcast in the evening, the platoon held the first platoon meeting after the recruits left the company, and all the personnel of the platoon participated.

The platoon leader's name is Gao Zhijian, the squad leader and non-commissioned officers are called Gao Platoon, and the conscripts are generally called platoon commanders.

There are a total of five squads in a row, one squad and one vertical row, the squad leader is at the front, the deputy squad leader is at the back, and the rest of the personnel sit on the Mazha in turn according to the size of the person from front to back, Jin Jiagang is the tallest, sitting next to Bai Xingqiang, and Niu Zhiyuan is behind, except for the squad leader, no one else needs to record anything, both hands must be on the knees, the upper body is straight, motionless.

At the platoon level, there is a cadre in the platoon, so the presiding officer of the platoon meeting can only be the senior platoon himself, because as soon as the recruits leave the company, they first asked the eleven recruits in the platoon to introduce themselves one by one, and then simply conveyed the spirit of the meeting of the superiors, and put forward some requirements for the next step of training.

The platoon meeting lasted for about an hour, compared to the recruit platoon commander Wang Yang, Niu Zhiyuan felt that Gao Zhijian was obviously more serious, at least Niu Zhiyuan didn't see Gao Zhijian laugh once in this hour, and Gao Zhijian obviously liked to reprimand or even scold, just at this moment, four veterans were reprimanded for sitting in an unstandard position. In particular, a senior soldier who was reported by his superiors for dozing off during the sentry was extremely ugly and harsh, and made him stand aside and 'appear'.

Gao Zhijian had a foul mouth and a penchant for swearing, which was well-known throughout the company, and even had a physical altercation with a second-class non-commissioned officer and was called in by the battalion instructor to talk.

Therefore, participating in the platoon meeting presided over by the senior platoon is extremely difficult for most soldiers.

Towards the end of the meeting, Gao Zhijian suddenly became interested in Jin Jiagang behind Bai Xingqiang, and he asked Jin Jiagang in turn, his height, age, and whether he was from the countryside or the city.

"Have you ever played basketball before?" Gao Zhijian loves to play basketball, and is the captain of the basketball team of the Red Ninth Company, and all basketball games organized by other companies in his spare time are organized by him.

"I haven't hit it." Jin Jiagang replied truthfully.

"It's a pity, Bai Chang is such a big man, and he will have nothing to do with basketball in the future." Gao Zhijian looked disappointed, suddenly lost interest in Jin Jiagang, announced the dismissal of the meeting, and then picked up his notebook and left.

Jin Jiagang is an honest baby, and since the gun misfire, he has been extremely resolute in obeying orders, is really meticulous, the platoon commander said to play more basketball, since then Jin Jiagang as long as he has time to play basketball with the veterans, no one thought that half a year later, the red nine companies have one more gold medal dunk, since then basketball has been invincible all over the regiment.

After the lights went out on the first day after the next company, Bai Xingqiang did not let the two recruits engage in physical fitness and food, and for the first time in three months, Niu Zhiyuan slept so early, and he couldn't sleep in bed for a while, and he couldn't help but start thinking about it......

After the day's blows, Niu Zhiyuan knew very well that his military quality could not be said to be bad in the Red Ninth Company, but it was still far from his goal of getting ahead. Therefore, he secretly made up his mind that he must train hard to make himself like a recruit company and become the first in the Red Ninth Company.

……

……

The weather is getting warmer day by day, and young leaves are beginning to be pulled out from the poplar trees in the camp, and in the blink of an eye, Niu Zhiyuan has been down for two weeks.

Niu Zhiyuan takes every training, whether it is physical fitness, weapons and equipment operation, or common subjects, he takes it seriously, the training is extremely hard, and the progress is obvious, the high platoon likes such soldiers, and praises it in front of the whole platoon many times, but whether it is the company commander Qin Haibo or the squad leader Bai Xingqiang, he is still not very satisfied with this.

On this day, after dinner, Bai Xingqiang still gave Niu Zhiyuan a training plan: "I heard that you came to the army to get ahead, but with your current ability, you can't do it, as a soldier, if you want to get ahead, you must at least become the king of soldiers." So I've set you a training plan outside of your normal training, you get acquainted with it tonight, and I'll train you from tomorrow. ”

Niu Zhiyuan was stunned for a while, everything has a reason, why did Bai Xingqiang conduct special training for himself? And the implication is that only by becoming a soldier king can you get ahead: "Squad leader, what is a soldier king?" I ......"

"You will know what the king of soldiers is, whether you want it or not, this matter is decided." Without waiting for Niu Zhiyuan to finish speaking, Bai Xingqiang directly made a decision for him.

"Yes! Monitor! "What else can Niu Zhiyuan do! I had to obey the order, and besides, what the squad leader said was very right, he really wanted to get ahead, so he wanted to become the king of soldiers......

……

……

The next day, at five o'clock in the morning, Niu Zhiyuan was called by Bai Xingqiang, and still gave him a sandbag vest and two sandbags tied to his calves, and came to the training ground.

"Starting today, every morning I run a five-kilometer run with weights. This training stops when it is less than 18 minutes. After Bai Xingqiang finished speaking, he took out a stopwatch.

Along the way, Niu Zhiyuan had already put on the sandbag weighing about fifteen catties, and rushed out with Bai Xingqiang's order.

"I don't have anything to teach you about long-distance running tips, everyone's situation is different, and it is most suitable for you to customize your own long-distance running strategy according to your own situation." Bai Xingqiang said behind him.

"I see, squad leader." Niu Zhiyuan was a little moved at this time, because he knew that the squad leader had a sentry last night, and he must not have slept well, but because he had set a training plan for him, he got up an hour earlier this morning and took him for special training.

"I will take you for a walk, by the way, set standards for you, standardize methods, guide your movements, teach you some tricks by the way, and wait until the physical training in the morning I will let Zhang Xu take you, or you yourself." Bai Xingqiang is a twelve-year veteran, a recruit like Niu Zhiyuan, he can see what he thinks in his eyes and in his heart.
