"Lao Zhao, okay, I haven't seen my craftsmanship for a few months!" Li Jun nibbled on the steamed buns brought out from the company and said with praise in front of him.

"Brothers, it's delicious!" Squad Leader Zhao was humble at this time, "It's just that I didn't come and steamed steamed buns, please go back and tell the instructor about it, the sentry brought me a bag of noodles, and the last time I brought that bag over the fifth company, because of the snowstorm, they temporarily stayed here for a few days with the express!" ”

Li Jun nodded, and then said to everyone: "Okay, no problem!" We're coming up with supplies, all right, brothers! Let's eat quickly, let's take a break, let's set off at two o'clock, and strive to rush back to the unit before the lights go out, don't those boys just lie down, we'll be there! They have to get back up! ”

"Haha!" There was a burst of laughter.

A few people sat in a circle outside the two vegetable basins, and the steamed buns they ate were brought from the company last night, and some soldiers took out compressed biscuits and a can of canned beef to prepare a big meal before the return trip.

After a light lunch, everyone went to bed on the floor, ready for the afternoon march. Only squad leader Zhao was left alone, boiling a pot of boiling water for their afternoon march, and patrols brought water bags from time to time in summer, and in winter they drank snow water, and the difference in conditions can be imagined.

"Count!"

With Li Jun's command, it was heralded that the team was about to set off again, and then everyone checked their equipment before departure, and poured the boiling water boiled by Squad Leader Zhao.

At the door, squad leader Zhao faced the team that was marching forward, raised his right hand, and solemnly saluted a military salute.

This move happened to be seen by Xiang Xiaotian, who looked back and was nostalgic, but the feeling at this time was very different from the experience of the company's comrades when he set off.

On the way back, the three recruits were less nervous for the first time, and today happened to be a blue sky and white clouds, so they were unconsciously speeding up! Good weather, long marches, let them take off their military coats, and add weight to the horses, because no matter in cold weather, high-intensity exercise of the body will definitely sweat, otherwise the bulky body, in the occasional cool breeze is not comfortable.

When I returned to the unit, I really let Li Jun say it accurately, half past ten! As soon as the lights out horn was blown, they returned to the team. The second team that led to the connection set off with a curse, and even if they came ten minutes early, they probably wouldn't have to get up just after lying on the covers.

After washing, Xiang Xiaotian lay on the bed and turned over and over but couldn't sleep, it felt very strange, and it seemed that he suddenly thought of something, got out of bed and did a hundred push-ups on the ground, and then the strange feeling was gone!

"I'm cheap, please! Don't develop this habit, remember that you are a lazy person, and never be a hot-blooded young man..."Xiang Xiaotian babbled and fell asleep.

Xiang Xiaotian, who came back from the first mission, had an indescribable feeling in the face of the daily company training, whenever he saw the simple faces in the company, he thought of the squad leader at the sentinel with strange language and behavior, he used to just feel uncomfortable without venting his muscles, but it was passive, and his spirit was very reluctant, but now it is different, he really wants to change something, and every time he breaks through the bottleneck and wants to give up, he can think of the lonely figure of squad leader Zhao.

"This is a real warrior, and he is not even worse than those so-called special forces in my heart!" Xiang Xiaotian found a small corner next to the toilet in the backyard, located between the toilet and the stable, the yard is not big, there are not many places to stay, since the recruit company, he has not sneaked out to chat with Lin Jie at night for a long time.

"Well, behind squad leader Zhao's playful smile, how much bitterness is hidden, I think only he knows. Xiaotian, I have been in the army for so long, my outlook on life has been changing almost every day, I used to simply not know what I should do, what I want to do, and what I can do, but now I seem to know, but I seem to have done something wrong, I want to correct it, but I don't want to change it, this kind of thinking is very strange and annoying! Lin Jie spit out a puff of cigarette and said to the starry sky, it seemed that these two people couldn't get tired of looking at the stars in the sky.

Xiang Xiaotian said to Lin Jie depressedly: "Well~~ I'm just the opposite of you, I rarely be in a daze now, my mind is full of training, and I basically don't have time to take care of other things, it's good that my body needs you to develop so well, at least I won't be so tired every day." ”

Lin Jie glanced at him and said, "I said, can you not talk about this every time you chat, brother, buddy's training intensity is no worse than yours, when you sprint in the morning, I was also warming up!" ”

Xiang Xiaotian didn't speak, but he could feel that looking at his gradual progress, there was some pressure on Lin Jie, because it was impossible for the army to be an environment without competition, plus they were all eighteen or nineteen-year-old children, and when they were the most competitive, no one could tolerate the advantages of others, so they could only work hard by themselves.

As the saying goes, tired people don't die, but they can die idle!

With a full schedule, time flies very quickly, and in just a few months the recruits are fully familiar with all the skills of the troops, and the rest is really just a repetition.

During this period, the weather in Province Z is also slowly turning to spring, and the patrol mission is still nothing new, just simply walking, facing the two colors of white and black.

At this time, the soldiers thought that they had just gone up the mountain, but after a few months of tempering, they had a bit of a veteran oil, and they talked to the veterans a little casually, and from time to time they occasionally surpassed the veterans in physical fitness and various individual skills, but greatly satisfied their little vanity.
