Chapter Eighty-Nine: Beer Bathing Building a Platform
On the afternoon of 27 July, Chen Qiang's unit was fully stationed in a campsite in the X mountainous area of X Province and began a three-month closed intensive training for the troops. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After arriving on the first day, due to the hot weather, the bad smell of the soldiers' bodies and their dirty clothes, and the uncontrolled use of water for bathing, etc., directly caused the wells in the small courtyards of the barracks and the entrances of the nearby villages to dry up completely.
It was not until the 29th that the well slowly returned to its original water level. In order to prevent uncontrolled water use, the wells in each small courtyard were covered with wooden planks and locked.
Each company also set up the position of the daily barracks duty directly by the well platform to prevent people from not observing discipline.
In order to ensure the normal daily life of so many personnel in the whole regiment, there is no way to do it.
In the past two days, the domestic water was all brought back from the nearby villages, but it really exhausted the comrades of the cooking class.
Of course, Comrade Chen Qiang was also "caught in tolerance" by Secretary Li Desheng, for a very simple reason, that is, "share difficulties and blessings!" ”
Seeing Chen Qiang's fart going out on his errands and going to the distant village to fetch water, Lang Ji'an and Guo Zhixin in the platoon breathed a big sigh of relief, but fortunately they didn't let the two of them do this "hard guy"!
At this time, the two of them deeply realized: In fact, it is good to have Chen Qiang in this row, although this kid often steals a lot of limelight from the two of them, but at the same time, he also blocks a lot of wind and rain for them and makes a lot of tolerance.
In the past two days, the troops have been resting and recuperating, and they have not carried out specific training, that is, they have helped the masses around them to do a good job in production and labor, and to do some work within their capabilities, so as to further consolidate their emotional foundation with the local masses and provide the most powerful logistical support for the next step of the troops' various trainings.
The road in this mountain is different from that of Chen Qiang's old army, and because there are troops stationed for training all year round, the mountain roads in and out of here are much wider.
But there is only one bad thing, that is, there are deep marks left by tanks everywhere, and sometimes there are bare mountains all around, which is really a bit difficult to distinguish between southeast and northwest for a while.
The vegetation on the surrounding mountains is not very lush, and there is only one reason, the continuous baptism of artillery fire by this army every year has made some mountains here have also been bombed into "monk mountains"!
Along the way, Chen Qiang, who was carrying a bucket, and the comrades of the cooking class walked briskly, and at this time, Li Desheng, the secretary general, pulled Chen Qiang to walk slowly at the back of the team, and deliberately opened a distance from everyone.
At this time, Li Desheng told him again and again: "There are a lot of "wild flowers" in this mountain, you kid don't be distracted by that time, in the past few months, if you dare to mess around, this time I will really report and guide!" ”
Listening to Li Desheng's words, Chen Qiang couldn't help but crack his mouth and said: "I won't invite you like this, I used to help Wang Chunfang's family, and it was also because of their family's difficulties, have you seen me touch someone's little girl?" ”
"No, no, but I saw that Wang Chunfang threw himself into your arms, this, this thing is still small?"
"There's no way, who calls me attractive!" ......
In this way, the two of them kept "carrying the pole" along the way, talking and laughing and walking for almost five miles, only then did they find a family, the front and back of the house are full of green trees, which occupies a large area.
There were several houses, but only one of the elderly man and the eldest lady lived, and after talking, I learned that his children had moved to the city outside the mountain, mainly because it was too lonely in the mountain, and there was nothing to do.
Li Desheng was very happy, so he said to the whole class: "If there is a shortage of water in the future, come here, first, there are few people; the second is the proximity of the road; The third is that there is no "Huahua" (young girls)", which saves some people from making mistakes.
As soon as he finished speaking, he was teased by the veterans who came to fetch water, saying that he was stupid to be a soldier, which is too unsentimental!
The old man couldn't hear what these soldiers were talking about, but when he saw them laughing, he thought it was a good thing, so he laughed loyally with everyone, and for a while, Chen Qiang and his comrades were laughing back and forth.
After two days of water shortage, when the wells inside and outside the barracks returned to their normal water levels, the soldiers could only have water for normal washing and drinking every day, and it was impossible for them to take a bath.
When he knew that he would be able to take a bath again in these three months, Chen Qiang couldn't help but be stupid, and blurted out: "If you don't take a bath on such a hot day, you won't be waiting to stink to death!" ”
After hearing this, his Huang squad leader smiled indifferently and said, "It's good to get used to it!" If you really want to wash, it's not impossible! ”
"Go to a small shop nearby, buy the cheapest Phoenix brand beer, I asked, if you buy a bunch of ten bottles, as long as ten yuan, you can take a beer bath, that feeling is absolutely super cool!"
After listening to the squad leader's words, Chen Qiang was stupid again, it was so difficult to take a bath here! This is a beer bath, I'm afraid it's also a strange method that the veterans came up with after they were forced to be in a hurry!
He didn't give up and asked, "I don't think there are small rivers in this village and outside the village, why can't you go there to wash them?" ”
"It can be washed there, but there is no one who does not regret the washed recruits, because there are cows that are repeatedly soaking and washing during the day, and if you go to wash it at night, the body will not be full of the smell of cow and stinky mud."
"This not only smells bad, the most important thing is the person who washes, the whole body will be very itchy, I can't wait to scratch the whole body, if you have this special hobby, you can go to wash it! The platoon commander and I will never stop you! ”
After listening to Squad Leader Huang's "Golden Jade Words" again, Chen Qiang was completely dead to this thing that could take a bath without spending money!
It seems that if you want to take a bath, you still have to buy Phoenix brand beer! It's a big deal to wash yourself once a week, it's always okay! Anyway, I still have a thousand dollars on me! Thinking of this, Chen Qiang's heart suddenly became clear again.
On the morning of July 30, the third day of arrival, the tank companies built tank parking platforms on the large open space behind their barracks, which were used to park tanks.
On the left and right sides of the build a long about x meters, about x meters wide, about x centimeters high rectangular platform, are all on the ground loess slowly accumulated, and then trimmed.
Don't underestimate this simple work, this is not only a technical work, but also a heavy physical work, just the amount of soil is not small, because this tank parking platform has never been repaired, so Chen Qiang these recruits and soldiers can only work hard to dedicate their "physical strength" to work!
Of course! The clods of earth that were piled up to build the tank platform could never be excavated in the tank parking lot. Otherwise, if you come to dig, he will also dig, and this tank parking lot is still full of "holes".
Don't wait until the tank platform is repaired, but everyone usually twists or falls when they run away, which has to be both in front of you and behind you!
Fortunately, there was a loess mound less than three hundred meters away from here, and after some serious search for the source of the soil, Chen Qiang took Lang Ji'an and Guo Zhiming to run over excitedly.
Then there was an endless trip to carry clods of soil, Chen Qiang first ran to the cooking class, found a large sand bag and cut it open.
Then after the two ends are fastened with hemp rope, then make a rope buckle at the other end of the hemp rope that can pass through the flat shoulder. When he was about to go out, he brought Guo Zhiming a bag for carrying soil.
He found Lang Ji'an and the two of them to cooperate, one after the other, constantly transporting loess to the back of the open space where the tank parking platform was to be built.
Guo Zhiming carried a sack on his back, which was of course also filled with loess, and followed them step by step.
In this way, several people kept switching between each other to save their physical strength, which was a long and arduous labor.
In the afternoon, the veterans in the platoon also began to replace Chen Qiang and their new soldiers, because of their physical strength, the main force, so soon at about four o'clock, all the soil was fully prepared.
After the "skillful workmanship" of platoon commander Liu Jiaming and squad leader Huang and other veterans, an hour and a half later, the two straight lines on the left and the right were magically built in this way.
Then, they went to help the other crews, and after the continuous struggle of the soldiers of the whole company, the tank parking platform was finally built before dinner.
Huang Qiang was happy to jump three feet high, which frightened many comrades-in-arms.
It is said that it is a pity that he is a soldier, he should report to the national team, what are he going to do? Go be a high jumper!
The meal that night was particularly rich, maybe Du Bing took care of the cooking class, and there was actually green pepper beef to eat today.
This must have been bought by the army and the local people. It is said that it was slaughtered on the same day, so it was extra delicious when you ate it in your mouth.
Chen Qiang picked up three bowls of rice in one go, until he couldn't eat it anymore, so he went to wash the dishes with the water he asked for with pity!
He knew that this could not be missed, let alone let go! Who knows where this next delicious beef meal is waiting for him?
He touched the round belly he ate, and he was really satisfied! Here the Huang squad leader walked over, and when he saw Chen Qiang like this, he couldn't help laughing.
Then he said, "There are only cows to eat in this mountain?" As long as you don't get bored in the future, you will have something to eat. ”
"That's right, this is the first time you come this year, as long as our troops come here, all the nearby cattle, pigs, sheep, and dogs will be eaten up by our troops!"
"This training volume is so large, the food we eat every day must be bad!"
"You kid is blessed, just wait to touch your belly every day!"
