Chapter Forty-Eight: The Hero Returns Home
"What are you?"
"Rookie"
"Who gave the name?"
"Old Bird"
"Why do you call the old bird a rookie?"
"Because we're stupid, because we're stupid, because we're brainless, because we're missing a string!"
Because Ye Feng and they are here, they are equivalent to recruits, and they naturally gained the name of a "rookie brigade".
……
For a month, the slogans of the recruits slipped away day by day.
This month, they lost count of how many emergency gatherings, countless all-night trainings, accompanied by sweat and tears, in exchange for endless discipline.
The ultra-high-intensity training also crushed many fighters, and during this month, some people dropped their hats and left the reconnaissance team, and some people left here with endless regrets because of their injuries.
When he came, Ye Feng had nearly a hundred comrades-in-arms, but now, there were only more than sixty people running together, and seeing the beds in their respective dormitories gradually empty, everyone was worried about whether they would be next.
At this time, Ye Feng reacted, it turned out that the elimination rate of the reconnaissance brigade was not as low as rumored by the outside world, but quite high, high and scary.
In this month, Hong Lei's training was mainly based on physical fitness, not to mention guns, Ye Feng and the others didn't even look at the bullets, and spent all day with logs, sandbags, and runways.
It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine how painful this is, anyway, Ye Feng has a deep understanding, it turns out that the training he received in the Seventh Connection, compared to here, it is simply pediatric.
What is fourteen bricks and five kilometers? Have you ever seen a fifty kilogram carrying a weight of twelve kilometers?
For thirty days in a row, endlessly breaking through their own limits, after completing the task every day, gritting their teeth and squatting down, taking off their shoes, looking at the layers of blood blisters on the soles of their feet, looking at their swollen legs, everyone, mentally, was numb.
I don't know how I got down the stairs in severe pain, I don't know how I vomited everything I ate into my stomach, I don't know how I got through this month.
Ye Feng also experienced what comradeship is called in this month.
Because of the rookie brigade, when he was the youngest, when he was carrying the log, everyone took the initiative to leave the lightest one to Ye Feng, and the largest steamed bun was given to Ye Feng, and someone always got up quietly in the middle of the night to cover Ye Feng with a quilt.
This seemingly small thing, in the eyes of ordinary people, may not be a big deal.
However, this is a military camp, and everyone's training burden is very heavy, who doesn't want to be able to resist something lighter when they run ten kilometers by themselves? Oh, who wouldn't want to eat a little more when eating? When it comes to sleep, everyone is tired, who doesn't want to lie comfortably in bed?
Ye Feng is not good at expressing himself, but this does not mean that Ye Feng is stupid, but here, there is no need to be moved, what is needed is your progress, Ye Feng also knows that only his own progress is the best reward for his comrades.
It is precisely because of this emotion in his heart that Ye Feng is extremely serious when training, any action essentials, Ye Feng has to train hundreds of times, and the log carries the smallest one by himself, so he will take out the speed.
Under such hard training, the rookie brigade ushered in the comprehensive quality assessment every month.
In this assessment, Ye Feng won the top three in the team, and Lu Shi also rose steadily, ranking tenth.
"Crazy, okay, overtook us."
A soldier walked into Ye Feng's dormitory, sat on the edge of Ye Feng's bed, and looked at Ye Feng who was closing his eyes and recuperating excitedly.
Slowly opening his eyes, Ye Feng sighed and said softly: "The veteran is the devil......
After this assessment, the rookie team was given a half-day off.
The hard-won half-day vacation has made the rookies surprised for a long time.
"Tsk, madman, aren't you also a devil?"
Lu Shi poked his head out of the shop and said to Ye Feng.
"Come on, the old bird gives me one hand, and I may not be able to beat it." Ye Feng glanced at Lu Shi and said angrily.
While everyone was chatting, the damn whistle blew again.
"Holy"
Everyone panicked again, and the 100,000 draft horses in their hearts were galloping endlessly, and the half-day vacation that they had promised was in the soup again.
In two minutes, everyone gathered at the gate of the barracks.
Ye Feng found at this time that Hong Lei seemed to have cried, his eyes were slightly red, and there was an angry sadness in his eyes.
A bad premonition shrouded Ye Feng's heart, because, this kind of look, he had seen ...... when Chen Lin was holding his father's relics and standing in front of him.
"All of them, turn right and walk in unison."
Hong Lei glanced at the rookies, and the command voice was not as majestic and masculine as before.
"Huh...... No, training shouldn't go to the left, why did you go to the right today? ”
"Where do I know, let's go!"
The rookies in the queue twisted their heads in a small arc, and cautiously exchanged glances with the people next to them.
……
brought the rookies to the gate of the brigade camp, and the rookies found out that everyone in the brigade had gathered here.
Standing next to the queue of old birds, Ye Feng found that the eyes of the old bird team members were almost the same as Hong Lei's eyes, the teeth were tightly bitten together, the muscles on their faces were exposed, and the blood-red and bloated eyes revealed endless sadness and murderous aura, as if the air had condensed.
Glancing at the veteran, Hong Lei closed his eyes, took a deep breath, turned to Ye Feng and said:
"Today, we are here to welcome the two heroes home, and some of you may have guessed that these two heroes have died heroically......
Speaking of this, Hong Lei's voice was already choked, and he couldn't say the next words, such an iron-clad instructor became like this, it was hard to imagine how deep the sadness in his heart was.
This is his soldier, but he is also his comrade-in-arms, and even more his brother, but now he is separated by yin and yang, and no one can bear such pain.
"Martyrdom ......"
The rookies were stunned, this seemingly distant word actually appeared in front of them alive, and for a while, they couldn't accept it at all.
At this time, Ye Feng's eyes also swelled with sadness, and this sadness quickly spread to everyone standing in the queue.
It seemed that God also felt their sadness, and it was gloomy all of a sudden, and a few drops of light rain drifted sporadically, and the rain hit the face, and it was impossible to tell whether it was sweat or rain.
The solemn queue stood quietly in the rain, waiting for their comrades-in-arms, waiting for their brothers, to return with honor.
Waving away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Hong Lei began to distribute white flowers to everyone.
Looking at the miserable white paper flower in his hand, Ye Feng's nose was sour for no reason, he couldn't hold back his sadness and didn't let his tears remain, he solemnly put the white flower on his chest, hung his hands, and looked at the front quietly.
