Chapter 118 Anecdote of City A (Ninety-seven) Beware of arrogance and rashness
The first year of enlistment in a military academy is the main process for an ordinary high school graduate to grow into an active-duty soldier, and only by training a strong physique can he lay a good foundation for his future studies and work.
Although Guo Xiaosong has been a soldier for three years before, he is really much worse than other classmates in this sea training, but fortunately, with Liu Min as his 'swimming instructor', within a week, he has basically mastered the essentials of 'self-rescue' in the water, even if his feet suddenly twitch in the water, he will not die.
'Liu Min, how can I thank you, Guo Xiaosong is the strongest student in our class, and he has this shortcoming, so it's really troublesome for you these days! Liu Min's sudden appearance also shared the work for 'Teacher Wu', and just when Liu Min was about to leave the island, 'Teacher Wu' specially invited her to a 'seafood dinner'.
'Guo Xiaosong is also my best friend, I should help him, and he has helped me before! Liu Min looked at Guo Xiaosong who was sitting with him and wanted to laugh, because he had been soaked in water for a long time, Guo Xiaosong's face was a lot fat and swollen, and his hands were stung into 'luck' by the seawater.
'Guo Xiaosong can have such a good friend as you, I really envy you, you talk slowly, Liu Min will leave tomorrow, Guo Xiaosong, you help me accompany Liu Min well! ''Teacher Wu' doesn't believe that there can be a pure 'friendship' between this young man and woman.
Guo Xiaosong picked up the shell of a big crab and offered a plump 'crab roe', because he knew that Liu Min had a problem and only ate 'crab roe', and didn't eat anything else.
Stretching her neck, Liu Min took down the 'crab roe' on Guo Xiaosong's chopsticks with her mouth, and she was full of ambition, savoring the natural deliciousness, but her eyes were still staring at Guo Xiaosong.
Guo Xiaosong thought it was something on his face, put down his chopsticks and wiped them twice, and finally smiled, "What are you looking at?" What else do you eat, I'll get it for you! ’
"I think you're good-looking, don't forget, I gave you this life, pay attention in the future, like when you go into the water to swim, and finally think about the essentials of my actions, this drowning is not fun!" ’
'I know, you can rest assured, I will not be satisfied with the three of you by my side in the future. I don't even swim! After a week of intensive training, Guo Xiaosong's body, arms, hands and feet were eroded by the seawater, making him miserable, and skin diseases found him.
"I asked you Teacher Wu last night, and said that you will go to the Southern Xinjiang Military Region for training in a few days, and you will be in your fifth uncle's regiment!" ’
Guo Xiaosong smiled bitterly and said, "It's the same everywhere." It's all about being a soldier, and I've long heard that in the first year of this military academy, you have to start from scratch and be a recruit. I've tried it a long time ago! ’
A certain 'mechanized infantry regiment' of the L Army is a rare mechanized infantry regiment in our army's field army, and the regiment commander Guo Kaiqing is a combat hero who has fought on the border. By the mid-to-late nineties of the last century, the infantry regiment had expanded to three thousand people. It can be called a strong force to defend southern Xinjiang.
Jumping out of the tarpaulin military truck, Guo Xiaosong took out the 'fluocinolone olmster' for the treatment of skin diseases from his satchel, wiped it on his hands, and did not go into the water for two days, his hands obviously recovered a lot, but it still hurt to move, and now Guo Xiaosong uses a spoon to eat, and he does not dare to use chopsticks.
'Take a breath and stand up!' Comrade regiment commander, the seven-year doctoral class of the Central Military Academy, the queue is complete, please instruct! When he arrived somewhere in southern Xinjiang, the 'Central Military Academy' also sent a military instructor to take over the work of 'Teacher Wu', who was surnamed Wang, was in his thirties, and was a 'lieutenant colonel'.
'Breathe! Guo Kaiqing, the head of the 'Jibu Regiment', is dressed in a 'camouflage uniform' today, and the difference from what Guo Xiaosong has seen before is that the 'Iron and Blood Regiment' before was all 'green camouflage', which can also be called 'jungle camouflage', but Guo Kaiqing is wearing an 'earthy yellow camouflage uniform', just like the 'color of the desert'.
'Breathe! ’
'Tell me, I don't care where you come from, as long as you come to me, you have to obey my management here, get up at half past five in the morning, go out at five forty-five in the morning, turn off the lights at nine o'clock in the evening, and during the regiment, you can't ask for leave to go out! Guo Kaiqing shuttled back and forth among his 'new soldiers' queue, when he passed by Guo Xiaosong's side, he stepped on Guo Xiaosong's feet with leather boots, only to see Guo Xiaosong's original 'three-pointed toe' leather shoes, the leather shoes were concave, until Guo Kaiqing's feet were raised, and his leather shoes did not 'float'.
Guo Xiaosong's feet, as early as when Liu Min taught him to swim, were eroded by the sea water and made them extremely painful, and now Guo Kaiqing stepped on it fiercely, and he had become numb, but he still endured the pain, pulled his chest high, and looked straight ahead.
Guo Xiaosong was specially instructed by the Sixu veterans who were drawn from the infantry company, and the platoon officers of the company, who disrupted and reorganized the original structure according to the battle sequence of every ten people in a squad, and Guo Xiaosong was assigned to the first combat group of the first squad, the squad leader was a three-year veteran, and the group leader was a 'two-year soldier'.
"I said detachment leader, according to your military age, is it our squad leader, I still have to call you squad leader!" The comrades-in-arms in the same class whispered in Guo Xiaosong's ear, because he knew that if Guo Xiaosong was still a soldier, he should also be a 'fourth-year soldier'.
'Whoever asked you to speak, you have to speak and report it, understand!' The squad leader was a 'corporal,' and he walked up to the two of them and yelled loudly.
The comrade-in-arms was scolded and turned red-faced, and stopped talking.
I asked you, did you hear me? The squad leader shouted twice more in front of the comrade.
Yes, I heard it, if you want to talk in the future, report it first! ’
"You have remembered for me, in the queue, you must abide by the discipline of the queue, you have been in the army for almost a year, this common sense still uses me to tell you!" The squad leader was yelling again.
'Nope! The ten comrades-in-arms of the first class responded loudly, and Guo Xiaosong's slogan shouted the loudest.
"I don't care what you do in the future, the regiment commander said, let us be strict with you, as long as you cut down the branches of your little trees, all the excess, you are excellent soldiers!" First place, out of the ranks! Push-ups ready! As soon as I put down my backpack, before the dormitory was allocated, the squad leader was about to do physical training.
A comrade-in-arms stepped forward, his hands on the ground, his buttocks upturned. Prepare for the pose.
'Push-ups move one step at a time, one is down, the other is up, listen to the command, one! ’
'Two! ’
'One! ’
'Two! After shouting thirty or forty times in a row, the comrade-in-arms finally couldn't hold it anymore, and his intestines hit the ground.
'Stand up! ’
I forgot to tell you just now that anyone who can't do a hundred strokes has to run laps, you. Run in circles around this playground, when, I told you to stop, you stop again, you know! The squad leader was purely a scoundrel, but there was no way, the comrade-in-arms began his lap, in order to supervise him, afraid that he would be lazy and slippery. The first squad leader also sent a squad leader to run with him.
'Next, out of the ranks!' ’
'Push-ups ready! In short, among the ten comrades-in-arms of the first class. Nine people were all punished by a squad leader to run laps.
In the end, it came to Guo Xiaosong.
'Last place, out of the ranks!' ’
'Push-up Pose Ready! ’
'Report to the squad leader, I have something to say!' Guo Xiaosong really couldn't swallow this breath. Looking at the backpacks of the whole class, they are all placed on the playground, and the weather is very bad today. It will be windy, cloudy, and if it rains again, they won't cover the quilt at night.
'Say!' The squad leader had long seen that Guo Xiaosong was a 'thorn in the head.' ’
'Report to the squad leader, I have a sick hand and can't do push-ups! ’
'Can't do it, reach out and I'll see!' ’
Guo Xiaosong stretched out his hands that had been eroded by the sea for the squad leader to see.
'How?' ’
'Soaked in the sea! ’
If you can't do it, you can run laps with them, and you don't have to do push-ups! ’
'Report to the squad leader, I can't run on my feet, it's the same as my hands!' ’
'Hey, it's really yours, take it off and I'll see it!' ’
Guo Xiaosong took off his shoes and socks again, and showed the 'injured foot' in front of the squad leader.
After reading Guo Xiaosong's 'injury', the squad leader smiled, "It's quite interesting, I've been a soldier for almost three years, and it's the first time I've seen you like this, but you can't beat me, aren't you useless with your hands and feet, then you come with me, I'll let you do something else!" ’
Guo Xiaosong followed the squad leader to the high platform in the center of the playground with his head held high, and walked to the high platform with him one after the other.
'Guo Xiaosong, you can't do anything, that's good, you can do sit-ups, you don't need hands and feet for this thing, you can do sit-ups for me here, when they finish running laps, you can rest again! ’
Almost all of Guo Xiaosong's comrades-in-arms were punished for 'running laps' on the playground, and there were also a few people who were usually in good health, who completed the standard 100 'push-ups', and then these 'excellent elements' sent the backpacks of their comrades-in-arms into the dormitory one by one.
The laps were carried out for more than two hours, and when it was time to see dinner, it was over, Guo Xiaosong's 'sit-ups' were very standard, and he did it for more than two hours, but none of these squad leaders and team leaders looked at him, and it was only when it was time to assemble the team that someone called him over and ate in the canteen with everyone.
The food cost of the "Jibu Group" is the "second class stove", due to the limited cost, the food is very poor, there are only two stir-fried vegetables for dinner, plus three steamed buns per person.
It's 5:30, 6 o'clock, let's gather on time for roll call, by the way, I want to emphasize one point to everyone, that is, after you finish eating, three people will go back in a column, you can't go back alone, if I see who doesn't listen to the greeting, don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless! In charge of the training of Guo Xiaosong, there was a 'captain', looking at the wear and tear of his 'desert camouflage uniform', it was expected that he must be a 'ruthless man'. ’
In addition to Guo Xiaosong, who eats at their own tables, their squad leaders and group leaders all have their own dining tables, and what puzzles everyone is that they have 'meat dishes' on their tables, and the amount is very large.
"What's the matter, we eat a special stove, come to them, just eat this, it's too unfair, I think it must be our food expenses, they have adjusted the bag, look at what people eat, sweet mouths and tongues, you look at our table, not even a little soup!" A comrade-in-arms at the next table whispered.
"Don't talk less, don't eat and sleep, if you want to speak louder, don't make a noise down there!" An 'ensign' stood up and shouted.
In the previous physical training, Guo Xiaosong can be said to be the most tired, he did thousands of 'sit-ups', the chest muscles and abdominal muscles are quite painful, just bite down on the steamed buns, the chest muscles will hurt, and then take a bite, it is still the same, seeing Guo Xiaosong frowning, he ate all the three steamed buns that belonged to him, and he only ate a few bites of the dish, and the rest was given to his comrades.
Coming to the outside of the canteen, holding the lunch box he had brushed in his hand, Guo Xiaosong planned to wait for the three members of their group to come down before leaving.
'Let's go! A friendly soldier seemed to have forgotten the order before the meal, and wanted to 'slip alone'.
Guo Xiaosong didn't speak, and pouted at him.
"It's okay, you see, there are ten people in a class, three or three see nine, right, then there is only one in the end, it's just right to miss me, isn't your class also ten people, let's walk together, I was tired from running just now, my socks are rolled, I have to quickly change into a pair!" ’
'Then you go first, I'll wait for them later!' Seeing that comrade-in-arms swaggering away without a trace, Guo Xiaosong didn't feel good in his heart, he didn't expect that he had been a soldier for three years in vain, and in the end, he would let people be called as recruits.
