Chapter 609: Recruit Egg
News of the transfer quickly reached the troops, including the timing of their transfer.
As the Seventh Army stationed in the Central Plains, it can be said that it has no face during this year.
Although their numbers are very high, all the equipment is also first-class, except for the third army and the fourth army, the seventh army is the best equipment.
However, the Seventh Army did not participate in the previous assassination of Li Chengguang, which made the Seventh Army really depressed.
What exactly is the reason? As a result, the emperor would rather transfer the Third Army from Guanzhong, which is thousands of miles away, than the Seventh Army nearby?
Externally, the explanation is that it is a drill, but internally they do not see it that way.
If you have to let other troops deal with the problems on your own turf, how much distrust does this have to deal with them?
Although everyone knew that this was not the case, it did make them feel very uncomfortable, so the Seventh Army began to train with all its strength, and practiced fiercely.
So much so that the recruits who have just arrived have almost had a psychological shadow.
But the last incident really hit them hard, and it seems that they can't find a better way than this except for training, in addition to showing their strength.
The active preparation was not without effect, although it was stopped several times in the middle, and a bunch of people were punished.
But this time, it was the Seventh Army that was the first to set off.
"Hey, you guys, it's good fate, it's time to catch up with such a good time." A veteran lay on the ground, in the shade, looking at the sunlight above his head through the leaves, and sighed inexplicably.
Just now, the news of their departure tomorrow has been announced, and all training today has been canceled, and they can take a day off, and at the same time carry out some old traditions of the army.
"Does the squad leader want to say that when you went to the battlefield, ......," a veteran soldier next to him quipped boringly.
Life in the army is boring, and for most people, it is.
Although it is very fulfilling, every day is busy, but if you look closely, every day is just like that, getting up, morning exercises, breakfast, training, lunch, sleeping, training, eating, studying, sleeping, day after day, repeating the same thing.
There are no recreational activities in the army, and at the same time it is impossible to give them much time for recreation.
But this environment also brings people closer to each other, especially that kind of trust.
The veteran soldier named Xu Liang is in his fourth year in the army, and he will be retired at the end of the year, and he has not been able to get a new contract extension.
The reason is very simple, his own grades are not up or down in the class, and he is quite active, but he has no leadership talent, and he has given several opportunities to command class drills, but the effect is not good.
So, he became a member of the retired army.
Iron battalion flowing soldiers, no one can be here for a lifetime, today is you, tomorrow may be him, although very sad, but this is the truth, the old man does not go, the new person will never be able to enter.
An army cannot rely on that group of old people forever, especially under the premise that Li Yuanji wants to build a modern army.
From another point of view, Xu Liang's grades are not up or down, in fact, they can stay and renew once, at this time they are only about twenty-one or twenty-three-four, and they can keep up with it physically.
Even if you can't be the class leader, it's good to be a backbone of the class.
But some things are not as simple as imagined, who has whose plan, who has whose consideration, and the army is the same.
Like this kind of veteran oil, after being a soldier for so long, it is no longer applicable to deal with them with the same set of recruits, rather than forcing them to stay, it is better to let them go, keep the backbone of the foundation, and after a year, the recruits will come up and can always maintain the circulation of blood.
"What kind of skin? If you're halfway through your training, you won't have to leave at the end of the year. The squad leader glanced at Xu Liang, and he didn't have a good airway.
This thing is leaving, and he didn't force him to stay, in fact, deep down, he still wants to leave him behind, there is such a person in the class, who is still relatively active in the atmosphere, which helps to relax the other fighters.
But in the end, he still didn't speak, the reason is just like what he said, this product is already skinned, he doesn't make mistakes, and he doesn't grind foreign workers, but many times he just doesn't do his best, and he can't find a suitable reason to keep him, and the decision on this matter is no longer in his own hands.
"If you don't go back, Daddy should chase him to the camp with a kitchen knife." Xu Liang said helplessly.
He was twenty-three years old and still single.
At this age, in this era, single, to be honest, this is no different from a forty-year-old person who is not married in the future.
It refers to the eyes and thoughts of outsiders who look at him.
Among them, in fact, many people have wives and children, and of course, there are many Xu Liang.
A professional army is good, but it is also a little bad in this regard, even if they become relatives, their wives cannot come with them, and they cannot leave the barracks anytime and anywhere.
This is also the reason why many people choose not to renew their four-year contracts after the end of their contracts, after all, personal events are more important, so what can you do if you stay? In the mix for three years? Won't you want to go back in the end?
"Learn more from people roe deer, go home to save relatives when you go to the marriage to do it, last year when I visited relatives, didn't I have it, now the baby is wow wow wow scream, nothing delayed, this time it was renewed." The squad leader continued, but was still a little dissatisfied: "The current conditions are so good, the rifles are so advanced, and the ammunition supply is very sufficient, if you encounter any problems, you can also let the artillery help. Even if you go back, will you be able to earn the money you stayed?
I really don't understand you, take advantage of the opportunity to not make more, and have to go back to live that unknown day. ”
At the end of the year, two of them were going to retire, one was renewed, and three of them were contemporaries.
In fact, the situation of all classes is not too similar, there are only two or three soldiers in each class at the same time, some classes have three people leaving at the same time, and some will only leave one.
There is no limit to who can leave, and it is possible to stay if you behave well, but this requires one more person from the other class to go.
Anyway, the number of people who have to leave every year is fixed, and it is often at this time that it is also the most headache above.
"By the way, I heard that there is going to be a new recruit?" Xu Liang took the opportunity to change the topic, he didn't want to go, but he had to go, so he could only let himself behave undoubtedly, otherwise it would be really difficult to explain at home.
Xu Liang's family is a more traditional family, and it is also a more stubborn family.
His father's thinking is also relatively stubborn, every year he visited relatives over the years, Xu Liang took back a year's military salary, not much, but not a lot.
Relying on his military salary, the marriages of the two elder brothers above have been done, they are all ordinary families, what kind of bride price or something, it is not as terrifying as imagined at all.
In this era, ordinary people do marriages, in fact, there are not many people who ask for money, most of them ask for some etiquette things, and what really costs money is the banquet.
But here's the problem, Xu Liang also has a younger brother and two younger sisters, the younger brother is nineteen, the younger sister is twenty-one, and the other is fifteen.
In addition to the younger sister, the other two are basically older unmarried young people, but some people proposed to be matchmakers, but they were all rejected by his father, on the grounds that the third Xu Liang has not yet married, how can the younger one below get married?
The army is where you can come and go when you want? Joke.
The old squad leader didn't know the true situation of Xu Liang, but he guessed about it.
"What do you call recruit eggs? Put away your little bit of impropriety for Lao Tzu. The old squad leader's face tightened, and he reprimanded him harshly.
It's actually right to say that the recruit is a pawn, but it's wrong again, and he continued: "The people are from the Royal Army School, according to the age of the soldiers, the two of you are actually about the same, but you are officers, and you are soldiers." ”
"Still different? It's all three and a half years. Xu Liang said, but he knew very well in his heart how big the difference between officers and soldiers was.
"Hey, fate, fate, we have been fighting for three and a half years, and we are about to leave, and we have fought for three and a half years, and we have become officials, tsk......" Another retired Liu Da sighed.
"Who made you not have that brain? Don't blame me for not reminding you, be polite when you see people in the future, but I heard the company commander say that the upper limit of the person who is coming in the future is much higher than our company commander, and when you meet this kind of person with a big background, it is better not to provoke or not provoke. The squad leader reminded.
"Isn't our company commander also from a military academy?"
The topic of recruits' eggs quickly became the hottest topic, but more than that, they didn't know and didn't understand.
Of course, for sending a recruit to the position of trainee platoon commander at this time, no matter what, it gives people a strange feeling.
They're going to the front, they're going to war.
The platoon commander, who was most familiar with them, was transferred to the company headquarters, but there was no position in the company headquarters.
So much so that many people said that the platoon commander went to the company headquarters to make way for him, and if he couldn't do it, he would come back, and if he did, then their platoon commander could only cry.
If it was peacetime, it didn't seem to be a problem, but in wartime, it was really not a good sign to transfer such an unfamiliar commander before the war, what is the difference between this and changing the commander on the spot?
Whether it was resistance or acceptance, the internship team of ten people quietly came to the army from in front of their eyes.
These 10 people are the trainee platoon commanders sent by the military academy, and they will be distributed in the 10 platoons of the Seventh Army for internships; although they are interns, the explanation given to them by the military department is to let them have the power that a platoon commander should have, and also to let the higher-level commanders use them as a platoon commander.
Then, write a review as well.
The most important thing is that after the war, they should be allowed to return to the military academy, which is why a platoon commander was transferred to the company headquarters but did not have any positions.
