Back in the dormitory after lunch, the children had an hour to rest, partly because they were too young to adapt to the stressful military life, and partly because they were worried that training immediately after eating would cause accidental damage to their bodies.

"Hey, Liang Qing, Instructor Xue's eyes were so scary just now, you still dare to raise your hand to speak, aren't you afraid of our Instructor Xue?" It was a girl from Chengdu next to Liang Qing who spoke.

Her name is He Yan, and she has a pair of almond eyes under her curved eyebrows. The small nose is like a hanging gall, the delicate small mouth, the corners of the mouth are slightly upturned, revealing playfulness, and the round face is just right with two shallow dimples, which is a beauty billet. If Liang Qing's beauty belongs to the dignified beauty of everyone's ladies, then He Yan's beauty is with the delicacy and delicacy unique to southern girls.

It's strange to say, He Yan and Liang Qing fell in love as soon as they met, and the two of them fought hot with little effort, plus the beds of the two people were next to each other, after the lights went out at night, the two girls would also whisper endlessly, the female instructor who lived with them had reminded them several times, but they still went their own way, and the instructor had to turn a blind eye, after all, they were still children, and the instructors didn't want to take them too closely, so as not to wear out the natural spirituality and characteristics of these children.

Liang Qing smiled faintly: "I don't think the instructor is terrible, he asked us to speak, and I didn't do anything wrong, why are you afraid of him?" Liang Qing said what was in her heart, and the moment she stood up, she clearly caught the flash of praise from Xue Ming's eyes.

"Of course Liang Qing is not afraid of Instructor Xue, don't you think, our instructors like Liang Qing very much." It was a girl with a southern accent named Lin Qian.

Xiao Yan turned his face and smiled and said to Lin Qian: "What are you doing, doesn't the instructor like it?" I still like Liang Qing, she always gives me fruit to eat, but you always rob me. ”

"Who robbed you, I'm afraid that you will be wasted, look at how fat you are now, and you still eat so much, you won't be able to run in the future." Lin Qian's small mouth is not forgiving.

Xiaoyan was afraid that others would say that she was fat, so she ran over to beat Lin Qian, Lin Qian said while hiding her mouth: "Can't catch it, can't catch it, you're a greedy little fat man." The two girls were laughing and chasing each other and teasing, and the other girls next to them were also coaxing.

Liang Qing looked at it, as if she remembered something, the smile on her face slowly disappeared, she turned over and lay on her back on her bed, her eyes looking at the ceiling above her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Back in the afternoon, all the students had a large brown paper bag on their desks, although they were curious, but none of the students opened it, these days of discipline let them know the importance of obeying orders, everyone stood straight behind their hands and waited for the instructor to arrive.

Xue Ming walked in, and after greeting each other with the students, he waved everyone to sit down. He also had the same brown paper bag there, which was placed squarely on the podium. Facing the students in the audience, he asked calmly: "You will all be soldiers in the future, you know what is most important to soldiers, who can tell me." ”

"Report" Before Xue Ming's words fell, Shen Yifei replied first.

"You say, what's most important." Xue Ming stared at Yifei.

"Guns! Guns are the most important thing for military personnel. Yifei replied loudly, several opportunities to answer questions in the morning were robbed by others, especially the first to answer the question was Liang Qing, he was not convinced, he didn't want to be compared to this girl next door, so he held back his strength and must grab a first place in the afternoon.

"Very good, very correct answer." Xue Ming nodded approvingly at Yifei. Yifei, who was encouraged and praised, turned his head and glanced at Liang Qing not far away, opened his mouth and smiled. Liang Qing also smiled at him, but before he could show a smug expression, Liang Qing suddenly put away the smile on his face, and glanced at him contemptuously, and then turned his head and stopped looking at him.

Xue Ming's eyes did not let go of the communication between the two of them for a moment, he actually liked this kind of competitive character in his heart, he hoped that this distinct personality of Yifei could be maintained forever, and he would be an outstanding soldier in the future.

"It is not very well said, the gun, that is, the weapon, it is very important for each of our soldiers, the weapon in our hands can destroy the enemy, can protect themselves and their comrades, but also defend the motherland, drive out those who come to the enemy blade, therefore, the gun is our life. Now, please open the paper bag on your desk and see what's inside. ”

"Wow!" With a burst of irrepressible exclamation and a chaotic collision sound, each child has a brand-new May Fourth pistol in his hand, these boys are not to mention the joy, many girls are also very excited after seeing it, Xiaoyan is one, she picked it up excitedly at the first sight of the gun, and her eyebrows fluttered and she gestured to the people around her, and while gesturing in her mouth, she learned to shoot the sound of shooting.

"Have you seen enough? Now put all the guns on your desk and listen to me. Xue Ming returned to his serious face.

"The gun you see and hold in your hands is not a toy pistol that you have seen or played with before, this is a real gun, a weapon that can kill people with bullets, this is your first weapon, and you will be issued many other weapons in the future, you not only have them, but also master and use them skillfully, so that the gun becomes a part of your body, a part of your life, you must cherish every weapon in your hand as you cherish your own life, and take good care of them. The bag also comes with a matching holster and a custom-made armed belt, and each gun has a uniform number on the body and holster, which is also the identification number of each of your students, and is just as important as your name. You remember, from today, from this moment on, this gun will accompany you anytime and anywhere, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, no matter the south and north, no matter where you go, the gun will follow you wherever you go, unless one day you no longer want to be a soldier, you don't want to wear this military uniform anymore, but as long as one day you are still a soldier, or a soldier, you can't throw away your gun, do you know what it means to put down the gun to a soldier? It means humiliation, it means submission, it means surrender, it is a great shame that we absolutely cannot tolerate, do you all hear clearly? Xue Ming's gaze swept over the faces of each student.

"Hear me clearly!" All the students shouted with all their might, they may not quite understand the full meaning of Xue Ming's words, but they all understood the meaning of the last sentence, that is, as soldiers, they must not lay down their arms.

These children, who have been instilled with heroic education consciously or unconsciously since childhood, have said the line "put down your arms, surrender your guns and don't kill" when they play war games, and in their minds are those bad guys who will put down their weapons, kneel on the ground, raise their hands and surrender to the heroic People's Liberation Army, and each of them has hoped that they are those heroic PLA soldiers since they were children.
