When he returned to the landlord's house, the red-faced uncle happened to walk into the wing room and enthusiastically said to the recruits, "My surname is Ma, and I hope you will have a good time here these days." Tonight, my youngest son lives with you, and tomorrow he will go back to school. ”

Yu Songyuan said: "Uncle Ma, please sit down, I want to ask you a question, all of you are sleeping on the kang?" Are ondols safe? What's the point? "This is a common problem for the recruits, and in their hometown, on both sides of the Guan River, you can't see this kind of big kang.

Uncle Ma sat down at the kang table, and everyone sat around the kang table. Uncle Ma said, "'Southerners practice beds, northerners still have kang', and the kang is the heating facility for our northerners. This place is known as the 'Snow Nest', and it snows heavily every year at the end of October, and then in winter. The winter is long, the climate is cold, and if it is not for the ancestors to invent this kang, it will not be able to pass at all. ”

"Is this thing safe?" Chen Weitong asked.

Uncle Ma said with a smile, "The bottom of the kang is burned with straw, branches and other things, and the smoke leads to the outside through the kang flue, which is very safe." In winter, it is very comfortable to sleep on the fire kang, only a thin cotton mattress or straw mattress is needed, and the quilt covered is also very thin. We here sit cross-legged on the kang in winter, eating, embroidering, chatting, and studying, all on the kang, which is convenient and practical. Every year, the old is demolished and the new is built, and the kang soil is still extremely haode fertilizer......"

"Uncle, your legs?" Seeing that Uncle Ma was struggling to get off the kang, Yu Songyuan asked with concern.

The uncle said, "The old illness that fell when I was young will not obey the call as soon as I change my waist and legs, it doesn't matter." ”

At night, Yu Songyuan slept on the kang, and the uncle's youngest son Ma Jun had already snored, but he tossed and turned, unable to sleep. The kang is made of bricks, unlike the bed in my hometown, and it squeaks as soon as you turn over, and it feels very comfortable. Finally, the fatigue of the journey slowly hit, and I don't know when, I fell asleep all at once.

When I got up to urinate at night, I suddenly heard the woman's deliberately suppressed soft screams. This voice Yu Songyuan is not unfamiliar, when he was a child, as soon as Uncle Shi Yuandong came, Aunt Yu Yueyue would make this cry when he was sleeping. When Aunt Wang Feng and Teacher Chen sleep, they will also make similar sounds.

He noticed that the sound came from the head room of the landlord of the uncle's house. He understood, this was the room of the uncle's son and the new daughter-in-law. He had a fear of peeping into other people's privacy, and hurried into the house and got into the bed.

I dreamed at night, and I dreamed that in the festive atmosphere of beating gongs and drums, I was wearing the same naval officer's uniform as the battalion commander, and I was marrying Lin Xue. The two were kowtowing to their parents sitting in the high hall, and he was drunk too much, and from time to time in the process of worshipping heaven and earth, he peeked happily at the bride wearing a big red cotton jacket with the afterglow of his eyes.

Suddenly, he found that the bride would become the peerless Yu Yueyue for a while, the landlord's daughter-in-law wearing a red wedding dress, her hair neatly combed, and shiny, the gentle and supple Wang Feng, and the straightforward but bookish Qin Hong......

What's going on, he was a little anxious, and lifted the red hijab, it turned out that the bride was still his Lin Xue. At this moment, Lin Xue was also looking at him excitedly and shyly, and whispered: "Brother Yu, you hate it, there are so many people, you are not afraid of people's jokes." Please save me some face, don't look at it yet, I'll let you see it later......"

At this time, the sound of Wang Hai getting up and changing the guard woke him up. There was a wind blowing down there, and it was cool and swishing, and I felt a little wrong, and when I touched my hand, I fucking wet the boss...... Oh my God, Nima actually ran away. This is Yu Songyuan's first "horse race" as an adult, and it is a "coming-of-age ceremony" that he will never forget! ”

The next day, the recruits began to clear the old barracks on the hill.

During the war years, it was a fortress guarding the airport, rows of old barracks, light and dark bunkers that are still intact around it, and artillery towers on the four corners constitute a complete defense system. On the hillside outside the turret, there are apple trees all over the mountain.

During the labor break, Yu Songyuan would carefully inspect and feel these fortifications with Chen Weitong, Wang Hai, Sun Qilai, Fan Jinyou, and Jiang Nanguang. In just a few days, they had already followed around Yu Songyuan, forming a small group like an iron bucket.

The grueling recruit training began, and the first month was basically a queue training.

Eight hours a day of class time, basically spent in the playground. For the first three days after the start of training, every day was either rice and cabbage and pork stewed vermicelli, or fatty and greasy meat buns, and when I bit into it, the oil dripped down. The recruits all opened their bellies and ate violently, and Nanguang nicknamed the rice bucket, which could eat eight or nine small bowls of fat buns in one meal.

Later, Yu Songyuan learned that this was a common trick used by the army's cooking class. When the recruits first arrive, the meals are generally large. Only by vigorously feeding enough oily and watery meals for a few days can the amount of food slowly decrease.

From the third day onwards, everyone's meal size really became smaller, and the queue training was in full swing. The basic queue movements such as standing upright, taking a break, turning, straddle standing, and saluting took half a month of training. When I returned to the dormitory, it wasn't over, and I had to learn to fold the quilt, and the standard was that it had to be like a tofu block, square. There is a competition for each training program. At the end of the day, all the soldiers were so tired that they didn't want to move when they lay in bed.

Next, step in unison, step forward, run, step, class queue, platoon queue, company queue, battalion queue, another whole month. From the second month onwards, the more difficult training for military sports projects also began. Basic military physical training, 400-meter hurdles, 5-kilometer cross-country, bomb throwing, and other subjects are all great challenges for recruits.

The basic military physical training includes sit-ups, push-ups, single and parallel bars, pommel horse, and bunker jump, a total of 10 events. By the end of the second month, the recruits' faces were tanned, but their bodies were all great, as if they were different from when they first arrived.

It should be noted that although this recruit battalion is composed of recruits from Unit 186 and the station ground staff, everything is in accordance with the requirements of Unit 186. Since Unit 186 is a unit that performs special duties, its requirements for soldiers are too high, so starting from the training of new recruits, the training items, training volume, and assessment requirements are much higher than those of ordinary naval units.

For example, the content of the training, the training of recruits in ordinary naval units, and the main content of logistics units is the queue to cultivate the basic military qualities of soldiers. The surface warship unit will be equipped with basic military training, and the 400-meter obstacle, 5-kilometer cross-country, bomb throwing, and other subjects are all army projects, and the navy basically does not engage in them.

From the first week, the Yongsan Recruit Camp will organize a queue or military physical competition every few days, and as the training content unfolds one by one, it will be changed to a comprehensive training competition. The small pennant of the training pacesetter class began to be hung in each class in turn, and a month later, it took root in the sixth class. More than 20 classes, all of them are not convinced.

The commander of the first company and the commander of the second company are both staff officers of the military affairs section of the airport station, and both of them graduated from the army junior command college and were transferred from the army. It is said that the training pacesetters awarded by these two will definitely stand up to the assessment. However, the squads were still not convinced, and slowly made trouble at the battalion headquarters.

The battalion commander Zhang Guangjin is the deputy chief of staff of Unit 186 externally, and the captain of the unknown "ghost" amphibious special brigade internally, at the regimental level. usually does not smile, and as a recruit battalion commander, he rarely goes to the training ground. And the instructor Zheng Baogang soaked in the training ground every day, basking in the sun with the recruits.

The mysterious "Ghost" brigade No. 1 seems to be a bit overkill. In fact, this group of soldiers was personally selected by Zhang Guangjin from the old areas of northern Jiangsu, and he wanted to track and excavate 20 to 30 seedlings who could enter the "ghost" special training camp out of a total of 67 specially recruited recruits in the two training camps.

After the resumption of the college entrance examination, the thirst for knowledge has become a general climate shrouded in the country. Shijie has entered the era of the great explosion of knowledge, but in our army, the cadres are old and have a low level of education, and many junior commanders at the battalion and company level have a high school or even junior high school education or below, and they can no longer keep up with the needs of the regularization and modernization of the troops.

The "Ghost" amphibious brigade is a stealthy strategic assault force directly controlled by the highest level. Under the new situation of reform and opening up throughout the country, the training and combat tasks of the "ghost" troops have become more arduous, and their demands for intellectualization and modernization are also more urgent than those of other units.

China has publicly pledged not to build military bases abroad, but as a great power, as one of the five permanent members of the United Nations, China's interests are spread across the country. China pursues a foreign policy of peace, but in the global village, peaceful diplomacy does not mean weakness and bullying. New China is dominating the Asian continent, and since the founding of the People's Republic of China, it has never been the kind of docile lamb to the slaughter.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, New China was blockaded and suppressed by Western powers for a long time. On the southeast coast, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party have been in a state of confrontation for a long time. In the sixties, the northern border was under heavy pressure from polar bears. Since the end of the 70s, South Asian tyrants and polar bears have echoed each other from afar, and the security of China's southern border has been constantly severely challenged.

The contest between countries has never stopped every second. Where China's interests have reached the frontier, in every corner of Shijie, in order to safeguard China's national interests, countless outstanding Chinese sons and daughters are fighting silently.

Founded in 1955, the "Ghost" is a special unit engaged in this kind of covert operation. It is very small in scale, but it is more classified at a higher level, more arduous in its tasks, and more brutal in training and combat than the special forces of various military regions and arms that our army began to organize in the late 90s. They are not military agents who mainly collect military intelligence, but hidden raids Liliang that no one knows.

From the day of formation, although significant sacrifices were made, they never missed. In the eyes of elite teams of various countries, such as the Alpha of the Polar Bear, the Navy SEALs of the M Army, and the Air Force Special Service Regiment of the British Army, China's "ghost" troops are lightning flashing in the sky, an invisible shadow on the ground and under the water, and no one has ever peeped into their true faces.

The name "ghost" is a nickname or honorific title given to them by their foreign counterparts internally. Their real identity is the Sharp Knife Amphibious Brigade nominally subordinate to the Chinese Navy. Whether in the sky, on land or underwater, the undefeated record of sharp knives makes opponents fearful.

Fighting outside the country and behind enemy lines is the most important form of warfare for "ghosts." The special operational environment has also made its requirements for the quality of soldiers almost to the point of perversion. Zhang Guangjin went to northern Jiangsu for special recruitment this time, and the conditions were very tough. These soldiers were all "sifted" by him from among the countless conscripts and "sifted" over and over again.

To be able to become his specially recruited soldier, he must have strong martial arts skills, strong combat fighting ability, and a flexible head, which is the most basic requirement. You also need to have some other expertise, and your education level should be at least high school or above. If you only have academic qualifications, you must also pass the high Chinese examination organized by the receiving barracks.

Among this batch of recruits, there are more than 30 key seedlings, and he has personally dealt with them one by one. The soldiers were assigned to two recruit battalions, Yongsan and Seokdao, and were trained alongside recruits from other units. He often shuttles back and forth between the two boot camps, keeping a close eye on the recruits' every move and constantly assessing their overall potential.
