Chapter 22: Life

To elaborate on this endless patrol mission, there have indeed been some thrilling and interesting things in the bloody training.

For example, when Xiang Xiaotian was patrolling the No. 42 sentinel line, he would encounter a large lake on the way, and no one knew why there was such a precious resource on such a desolate Gobi Desert, and in winter, in order to save time and physical strength, the soldiers often walked on the ice, because they were far away from the company, and every time they passed by, they were on the march, so no one had carefully looked at how deep this puddle was.

The weather is getting warmer, the ice is thinner, the problem is here, none of them noticed this problem, resulting in an unlucky senior soldier stepping on the air and sliding down on the spot, fortunately the platoon commander who led the team at that time commanded effectively, first let people quickly retreat the same way, and then pulled up little by little with the backpack rope, fortunately, the brother can swim otherwise the consequences of sliding under the ice are unimaginable, so it also caused this senior soldier to walk back and forth in wet clothes all the way, because it is impossible to delay a march for one person, Strange to say, this senior soldier who walked all the way was fine, and when he came back, he fell seriously ill.

And Xiang Xiaotian muttered all the way in his heart: "Fortunately, I can swim, fortunately, I can swim~~" It's like he fell.

The squad leader of the 42nd outpost is also a strange person, just the opposite of the squad leader Zhao, Xiang Xiaotian has been to dozens of times and has never seen him say a word, the difference is that there is no warm welcome hospitality, the same is that the troops still have a standard military salute before departure, it seems that everyone is often used to being alone by themselves, and it will be more or less different!

In physical fitness, regardless of recruits and veterans, they all have a common idea, that is, they believe that they can run at such a high altitude, and if they get to the bottom of the mountain, they will definitely be able to improve a lot!

"I'm going down the hill, so I'm not going to run!" Whenever he talked about this, Xiang Xiaotian replied to the affirmation next to him.

Compared with the field companies on the mountain and under the mountain, they only have one five kilometers a day, and with the growth of military age, five kilometers has also become an armed five kilometers, and the difference is also a little different from that of a field company.

However, the first time the privates ran still suffered a big loss, the twenty-six minutes qualified project, although there is a foundation of five kilometers of cross-country, but because of the lack of skills in the tie method, Ding Yu came back is not a few, Xiang Xiaotian also suffered a loss in this regard, twenty-three minutes to come back, this result is very good even in an ordinary company, but his current five kilometers can reach nineteen points under normal circumstances, so it is a shame to come back armed in twenty-three minutes.

In terms of 100 meters, the stimulation of the company commander Song Hai led to not rushing eight or nine back and forth every morning, and he would be in a state of fear in his heart this day.

The basic training of individual soldiers is even more boring, because there are no new skills added, so it is possible to spend a day lying on the ground in the snow aiming at the target.

Occasional bomb throwing training, Xiang Xiaotian has never broken through 50 meters, but Lin Jie took the lead in breaking through, Li Jun also said that according to this pace of training, this year's competition, the fourth company is likely to return two third-class merits.

So what is everyday life?

Cleaning, tidying up the yard, welcoming the spring greening, digging a tree pit on the stall next door to prepare for planting trees, occasionally you can see the figure of the fellow, because there have been soldiers who have been punished for stealing sheep before, so occasionally passing by the sheep can see a group of soldiers licking their lips and sucking saliva:

"I want to change my taste so much!" It's everyone's voice.

When standing sentry, you can often see two or three bearded friendly soldiers carrying shabby AK47s on their backs and wearing national uniforms, patrolling the border, which also leads to no one knowing whether this is a regular army or a rebel army, but they have no intention of attacking, but will directly cross the border to borrow a fire or take away a pack of cigarettes if no one else has passed.

"I see that it is better to say that it is better to escape the famine!" This is what Xiang Xiaotian said when he saw the arrested cross-border personnel being twisted back, although the language is different, but that look makes people never forget.

There is also a military doctor, a second lieutenant who just graduated last summer, not tall and wearing glasses, once I had to experience a patrol life with the soldiers, and went to the No. 44 outpost route all the way to the road, and when I was about to reach the end of the uphill slope, I also magically counted the stakes, I didn't pay attention to my feet, I was twisted by a small stone, and I slipped by the snow, and rolled down, fortunately I was dragged by the comrades behind, otherwise the military doctor would definitely have to be replaced.

Time flies, and the dull and boring military life accompanies every officer and soldier of the border defense company.

The snow has melted, spring has arrived, in May, has all been replaced with the summer cyan digital camouflage, winter is not much feeling, and to the season without snow to really feel what is called wind and snow impermanence, sometimes the sun shines on the heart, but suddenly a light snow, sometimes it is obviously a spring breeze bath, a hail can come after a while, wearing a steel helmet outside training was smashed is also a pleasant sound.

The altitude of the mountain is high, the air quality is very good, and with this kind of weather, you can often see a double rainbow in the sky, which is rare in the mainland, so in addition to the snow-capped Gobi Mountain, this is also an alternative scenery here.

However, in addition to these 'trifles', each patrol mission is still going on, but it has changed from black and white to pure earthy yellow.
