Chapter 56: Expectation

The stars in the sky are like bright eyes in the night sky, blinking and shaking in the sky.

Zhang Junbao looked up at the North Star in the sky in a daze, if he had known that North Star earlier, maybe there would not have been that punishment on the file.

The temperature on the grassland at night is very low, and a person sitting in the small courtyard can clearly feel the gusts of cold wind.

It has been nearly eight months since I joined the army, and when I look back, I suddenly feel that time has passed so quickly.

The long military journey that was once said in the recruit company will be half over in a few months.

Exercises of live troops and group armies, which only appear in books and on television, are coming, and I am still a part of the exercises.

During the Spring Festival exercise, the confrontation between the red and blue sides is still a little embarrassing when I think about it.

It was a very non-conformist exercise, and it was a huge blow to some veterans who had joined the army relatively early.

When the rabbit in his eyes suddenly turns into a wolf that can bite one day, the huge gap between the front and back is really like a head drink, which makes people dizzy.

I heard from the veterans of the convoy passing by that now that the troops are engaged in regularizing the blue army, it is necessary to comprehensively simulate the training and operations of foreign armies, so as to provide a hard whetstone for honing the combat effectiveness of the troops.

What is the Blues?

In Lao Geng's eyes, the word Blues is a play to accompany the runner.

Every year during the exercise, we will arrive at the designated battle position according to the plan, fire a few cannons, fire a few shots, and then put up the flag of the Blue Army and wait for the Red Army to come over.

What's the new Blues?

Listening to Brother Qiang, from the year he was a recruit, the Blue Army began to try to reform.

It was not good for anyone to be beaten passively, and some angry scouts attacked the regimental headquarters of a certain Red Regiment that year, and the strength of a squad captured the entire chain of command.

For this reason, the leadership of the group army that year slapped the table at a meeting.

Not for the Blues to break the rules, but because the fighting power of the Red Corps is too scummy.

The reform of the Blue Army is imminent and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and now the officers and men of the army understand that the reform of the Blue Army is imperative, and now it is only a matter of time.

The confrontation exercise in the autumn is likely to be an opportunity.

"Three madness, come back and sleep."

The voice of a soldier came from the room, and Zhang Junbao turned his head to look behind him, only to find that the lights had been turned off in the room.

Smiling helplessly, Zhang Junbao got up and walked back to the dormitory.

Lying on the bed alone, his mind is full of the upcoming live military exercises, which are really closely related to himself.

As for the reform of the Blue Army, the replacement of the command and dispatch center of the exercise base, etc., it has nothing to do with him.

It is enough for a soldier to go to the battlefield and listen to the command.

When the east of the grassland appeared white again, Zhang Junbao habitually got up from the bed and started a new day of training.

Treating every day as if it was the first day of the recruit company was the principle that Da Fei gave him.

Because being a soldier is a boring thing, there is not much passion, and there is not much heroism.

Some people say that the time for earthquake relief is the time for meritorious service and the time to show the combat effectiveness of the PLA, but who wants natural and man-made disasters?

Some people also say that the soldiers catch drug dealers, catch smugglers and fight terrorists, and that kind of battle scene will definitely be particularly passionate, who has ever thought about those heroes whose photos are hung on the wall?

Those who serve as soldiers hope that one day they can carry a gun on the battlefield to defend their home and country, and they also hope that they can be peaceful and stable without firing a single shot in their military career.

This is a contradictory proposition, but he has always been in the heart of every soldier.

A two-way choice, if one day the country needs it, it is necessary to rush to the front line without hesitation, this is the soldier.

The thirteenth class stationed in the grassland is a place where birds don't than 500 kilometers away from the northern border of the motherland, and it is also a boring place that can drive people crazy.

In the early morning, there is only endless green grass on the grassland, and occasionally a small white dot can be seen flashing, which is a rabbit going out for a walk.

Now there are very few rabbits because people always want to eat him.

Dressed in a half-worn camouflage uniform, a heavy backpack, a pickaxe hung from the back, an ammunition bag containing four magazines and four training bullets, and an eighty-one bar, this is a must-have item for Zhang Junbao to arm ten kilometers in the morning.

After a morning exercise, the sweat on the body can soak all the camouflage clothes and underwear, and after training every day, the clothes can be wrung out of the water.

As a waste, if you want to get out of your situation, you have to put in more effort than others.

Now Zhang Junbao can only do training, because he doesn't know how far the training of those comrades-in-arms in the company has been.

He wants to use military prowess to prove that he is not a waste, and he wants to be recognized by people.

The daily routine of Class 13 does not seem to change for a year, and the soldier is no longer training with Zhang Junbao, and he says that he has finished teaching everything he can teach.

Pony will appear once in a while, and that is when the obstacles in the courtyard break down or need to be upgraded.

Now traps have been installed around the courtyard, and the highest density is still the place where Zhang Junbao often haunts.

Occasionally, one day, Zhang Junbao may accidentally step into a trap, and as for what is placed in the pit, you don't have to guess to know.

Brother Xiao Ma seems to have a perverted preference for "mines", and after a long time of training, Zhang Junbao can smell the smell of the trap from afar.

Da Fei had already started to teach him how to make bombs, and he didn't know what this guy thought, so the first lesson he started to learn was to ask Zhang Junbao to mark the load-bearing beams and load-bearing walls of the dormitory.

For this matter, the veterans in the squad almost collectively gave Da Fei a roll of the eyes, and said in their hearts that this guy must be crazy, and he even thought about blowing up his nest every day.

Zhang Junbao somewhat understood why the regiment commander put Da Fei, a high-achieving student, in this ghost place where birds don't, because he must be worried that his regiment headquarters would be served by Da Fei one day.

"The minefield behind us, biogas, that's the natural bomb raw material, I don't tell him about ordinary people."

The main component of biogas is methane, which contains a variety of different gases, and its characteristics are similar to that of natural gas, and when the air contains 8.6%~20.8%, it will form an explosive gas.

Because the actual drill was about to begin, Zhang Junbao needed to temporarily cram, and practiced shooting.

The soldiers of the company can be fed with bullets, and in the grassland, without bullets, they can only practice their skills.

Brother Qiang carries two bricks with him every day, and people who don't know will definitely think that it is the underworld from when they see him, but in fact, it is a prop that Zhang Junbao used to practice guns.

The veterans all hope that Zhang Junbao can get a good ranking in the exercise, not only for himself, but also for the entire thirteenth class.

thought he was the only recruit who came here in these years, according to the unspoken rules of previous years, the people who came to Class 13 were all old guys like Lao Geng who were facing discharge.

As for Da Fei and Da Bing, they were purely accidental.
