Chapter I
Summer 1942. Camp Tacoya, Georgia.
"Lacey Parks, you're able to get canned cherries from the kitchen." Private Tiber reclined on the bed and looked at the jar of cherries in Parks' hand, "But are you sure you're okay?" ”
"I bet Parks must have been so flustered that the after-effects of hitting the pillar the day before yesterday are still there!" George Lutz laughed.
Hearing Lutz's words, several GIs in the battalion burst out laughing. They all know the story that Parks sneaked into the kitchen and took a jar of peaches while he was having dinner the day before yesterday, but because he was so panicked, he hit a pillar outside the kitchen and fainted. Even so, the entire E Company, with the exception of the company commander, Lieutenant Herb Sober, knew about the affair.
Lacey Parks shook his head, then smiled: "Okay Lutz, you have to be careful with the two hundred condoms in your cupboard, if you let the 'Black Swan' know, you have to run to Kolahi Mountain, rush, horse!" ”
"Go to Sanli, come to Sanli!" There was a roar in the tent.
"Parks, did you rummage through my cupboard?" Lutz blushed.
"No, do you still need to flip it?" Parks was talking.
Outside the camp gate, there was already a shout: "The second platoon of E Company assembles!" ”
"It's over, damn Sauber, can't it make people feel better? Today is a break! Roy Carber scolded. But no one was in the mood to pay attention, everyone changed into training uniforms, and quickly gathered outside the camp camp.
From the barracks to the Kolashi Mountain, a total of ten miles back and forth. Climbing Kolasi Hill in full gear was a regular subject of training for Company E, and it is said to be the ingenuity of Herb Sauber.
It's already noon and the sun is strong.
"I can't stand it!" Ed Tepbo gasped, hunched over, sweat dripping down his hair, his entire training uniform completely wet.
"Come on! Ed! The burly Kawood Lipp was gasping for breath, but he waited a moment and ran forward side by side with Ed Teebo.
"You're such a good guy! Ed. Tibo smiled reluctantly. The one ahead is already a very high hill.
Les Parks was at the front alone, and the hill was steep, but that was nothing of difficulty for Les Parks. Now he seems to be a different person, and he has infinite power. For him, this kind of training is just pediatrics.
"He's a pervert!" Kaber looked at Parks, who had climbed to the top of the mountain, and hummed at David Webster beside him, "You know, the other day, he was the last to run. ”
"Alright, Kaber, don't complain, if you're still scared, beware of Sauber picking your skin!" Webster quickened his steps and passed past Kaber.
"Don't you think Parks is a little different than he used to be?" Karber shouted from behind Webster.
"Yes, yes! If you don't hurry, then Lieutenant Sober's punishment will be different from the previous one, hurry up, Kaber, don't complain! Webster turned around and shouted.
Parks is different, he's not the same Parks he used to be. The problem is complicated, and in the eyes of God it is nothing more than a simple soul crossing process, but for the soul of the original Parks and the present Parks body, it is simply a complex and completely crazy experience.
Parks is an unlucky man, because he steals a jar of peaches and gets knocked out by a pillar, and that's not the worst of it, because after he gets knocked unconscious, he's no longer Parks, but someone else, another person's soul. Another soul from China, a Chinese named Zhang Xiang.
To be honest, this kind of experience is really weird, it is even more complex and unbelievable than those time-traveling dramas in China in the 21st century.
But that's the way it is, it's not that I don't understand, it's that the world is too wonderful. It's always possible to get carried away and slam you from heaven to the ground with a blow to the head.
I can't explain this phenomenon, but Confucius of his great motherland has a saying that can comfort and comfort him, "If you come, you will be safe." Yes, since you're here, stay here with peace of mind!
As for why Parks can now change from physical backwardness to a pacesetter on the training ground, this is only due to Zhang Xiang himself, because before his soul possessed, he was a Chinese agent in the 21st century, and he was the top soldier among the agents, amphibious combat, combat assassination, English, French and German are all proficient, and he can also make the best adjustments to various body functions and make the best training actions to achieve the best results of training.
Although the original unlucky ghost Parks was not very physical, after adapting to this body in the past two days, Parks has been able to adjust and stand out in training. It's not that Parks is much stronger after having Zhang Xiang's soul, but it's the result of physical coordination, and more importantly, the current E Company officers and soldiers are just recruits.
This is the 101st Regiment of the 506th Airborne Division newly formed by the US Air Force, and the regiment is commanded by Colonel Zinke. The Airborne Forces, which was a completely new branch of the United States in 1942, were able to enter this new army by people from all over the country with different backgrounds. Farmers, miners, mountain people, some of them the children of southerners; or poor, or well-off; There are also university students, police officers, soldiers who were originally reservists, etc.
Zhang Xiang is very familiar with this group, and it is a TV series "Band of Brothers" based on a true story based on a true story directed by American Hollywood director Spielberg.
A very good TV series, the atmosphere of World War II, and the strong brotherhood, these are all things that Zhang Xiang has felt in the army, so he adapts quickly, and he has already regarded himself as this unlucky ghost Lacey Parks.
"That's good, Private Les Parks, it looks like you've been training well these days!" Herb Sauber held his chronograph at the top of the slope and shouted, "It looks like you've broken the record held by Platoon Commander Elendick Winters by five minutes ahead of him." ”
"Thank you, company commander!" Despite not liking the character, whether in the TV series or now Herb Sauber, Parks tries to answer as loudly as possible.
Lieutenant Winters climbed up not far away, followed by David Landowman.
"Private 1st Class Landowman, are you going to the hospital? You look inferior, hurry, hurry, your nickname shouldn't be called 'Big Cow', it should be called 'Snail'. Sauber waved his arms and shouted, "It took us 23 minutes to climb Kolashi Mountain, maybe this result is good enough for other companies, but for E Company, it's not enough, we are the best company, hurry!" ”
The scene was familiar, and Parks, who had already run down the hill, couldn't help but want to laugh, but he couldn't, and even though he was the fastest, he was almost exhausted. In order to achieve his previous strong physical state, this body has to go through more brutal and rigorous training.
"I can't stand it anymore!" Private White couldn't help but start a jail in the barracks. He used to be a reservist, and his family was well-off, and this kind of hardship was beyond his limit.
"White! Have you forgotten what you're here for? Kawood Lipp stood at the gate of the camp and looked at White seriously, "The Airborne Forces are the most elite troops in the United States, think about it, what could be more worthwhile." ”
"Brothers! I have good news! At this time, Donno Malach walked in quickly, and when he saw the people in the tent, he couldn't help laughing, "Don't be discouraged, Lieutenant Sauber has shown mercy today, do you want to hear what it is?" ”
"Don't mention that 'black swan' Malachi." White couldn't help but mutter.
"Alright, brothers, isn't it good news that we can be free tonight, and that Sauber is finally gracious, and we can go to the bar and have fun?"
"Oh!" The camp tent cheered in unison, and even the gloomy White couldn't help but smile, this is indeed rare good news, for E Company.
"I hope Sauber doesn't show up in the bar tonight!" Parks smiled, he didn't have that much resentment towards Sauber, after all, Sober's training intensity and requirements were nothing to Parkes, who used to be an agent. It's just that Sauber's appearance will make people feel disappointed.
The bar is actually just one of the entertainment venues of the army, and of course there are no beautiful women here. This is the place where the brothers of E-Company feel the most regretful tonight. Of course, it's nothing, because you can have a drink tonight, and there won't be Lieutenant Sauber here.
"Rutz, get me another beer!" Joe Toy leaned on a chair by the bar, carefully tucking the corners of his trousers into his leather boots.
"Toy, when did you learn to tuck your trousers into your boots? You're not really a paratrooper yet, and voila, your pants are wrinkled. Rutz at the bar came over with two beers, a little smoky, and he followed the example of Lieutenant Souber. It was his stunt, able to learn the words of Lieutenant Sauber, Major Horton, and even Colonel Zink.
"Don't mention that guy, it's a disappointment, George, you just have to give me a beer!" Joe Toy was also a little drunk, watching Luz smirk.
"Here you go!" George Lutz handed the beer over and raised his glass, "Go to Sanli, come to Sanli!" ”
"Go to Sanli, come to Sanli!" Joe Toy and George Lutz smiled at each other, then drained the beer from their glasses in one gulp.
"George Lutz, give me a beer!" Lacey Parks walked over, he liked the atmosphere very much, it was similar to the atmosphere in the barracks in his previous life, all the soldiers in the barracks in the world were like this, they were brothers.
"Okay, wait!" George Lutz walked over, poured a beer, and handed it to Lacey Parks, "Lacey, you can call me George!" ”
"Okay!" Parks smiled and raised his glass, "Go to Sanli, come to Sanli!" ”
"Haha......" George Lutz and Joe Toy laughed.
"What the hell are you laughing at?" Lacey Parks shrugged his shoulders.
"Go to Sanli, come to Sanli!"
All three burst out laughing.
"Parks, it feels like you've changed a lot in the past two days!" Joe Toy looked at Parks.
"Of course," Parks smiled, "I'm physically strong now, and even Sauber has to admit that I'm the best guy in E-Company, and of course he's second." ”
"Oh, why do you talk about that guy again, don't say he's second, he can't even do the standard thirty palms, can you believe it? Every time he led a team to do this, he only did twenty. Luz blinked.
"Don't talk about him, or I'll never get a beer again!" Toy looked up, "Look, Second Lieutenant Compton Barker is making another bet. ”
Parks saw that Compton Barker was surrounded by a lot of people, and some people were coaxing.
"Looks like they're shooting darts!" George Lutz exclaimed excitedly, "Interested in going and seeing?" ”
"Well, I'd like to check it out!" Parks and George Lutz walked over with wine glasses.
"Do you want to gamble!" Compton Buck yelled at Parks, "Look, they all want me to lose, don't you want to win too?" We gambled a lot this time, ten dollars! ”
"Oh, ten dollars! It's just too big! George Lutz was taken aback, "Forget it, I'll take a look!" Parks, you're the one you think Lieutenant Sauber values. ”
Suddenly, there was a commotion all around.
"Alright! Then bet, of course it's me and Buck Lieutenant Buck shooting darts, if you're not afraid of losing, press Buck to win! Parks picked up the dart, laughed at the crowd, and returned the dart in his hand.
The whole time, Parks was facing the crowd, not even glancing at the dart's target, and then making a gesture of please to Compton Barker in the stunned eyes of everyone.
