A military force is composed of a large number of large and small formed units, from the large group army to the most basic 'branch built on the company', and countless base points can form a powerful military main body, as the most basic 'branch built on the company' The squad leader can lead a squad well, which means that it is possible to give him a platoon and a company, in other words, a grassroots commander, whether you are a platoon commander or a company commander, you are not as good as a squad leader, it is equivalent to a 'bear, a nest of bears. ’

Since the commander of the third battalion, Di Lei, took office, the training of the third battalion has focused more on the most basic. If we say that every squad in the battalion can be strict with itself in training, then the training work of the entire company, and even the whole battalion, will come up, and the reason why the party branch of the company of the seventh company is anxious to replace a few unqualified squad leaders is that they do not want to be trained in front of the battalion commander, and almost every once in a while, the battalion always has to carry out training 'Competitive assessment', the company commander at the back of the line is the first to take the brunt, and the self-examination has to be written.

When the commander of the seventh company received the order from the battalion, he was immediately dumbfounded, the newly mixed sixth squad is still very 'young', especially the squad leader Guo Xiaosong, he is still a new recruit, let him participate in the 'queue competition', it is obviously not well prepared, if he really goes up, it will have to be at the bottom of the battalion.

"Why don't we change someone, let the fourth squad leader, the fourth squad leader is a four-year veteran, and the password is one of the best in the whole company, and most of the veterans in their class, we can't take the first, we can also take the second!" The deputy company commander said a few words on the side.

'The battalion commander has to look at Guo Xiaosong's sixth class, his temper, you don't know it, you can fool around. Don't say that you changed shifts to participate, do you remember the last time, when the Eighth Company engaged in a tactical competition, a soldier was replaced, and then the battalion commander was found out, and at the company commander meeting in the battalion, he scolded him for being so violent, who dared to do it, 'The commander of the Seventh Company has seen the style of the battalion commander Di Lei. The last thing in his life is that he likes to be deceived by others.

"Then let the sixth class go up, you have to weigh it, I don't think it's good, we are even the penultimate first!" ’

"This, you still need to say, it's not neat, who let it let us catch up, this is still half an hour before the whole camp gathers, I have to go find Guo Xiaosong first." Cheer him up, you can't 'hate' him at this time, 'encourage Guo Xiaosong on the spot, let him relax. Forget the nervousness, the commander of the seventh company thinks so and does the same.

"Company commander, don't worry. Don't dare to say anything else, I will definitely not disgrace you in this queue. Just look at me! After listening to the instructions of the commander of the seventh company, he was not only not nervous, but quite relaxed.

The Seventh Company is the first company of the Third Battalion, so naturally they have to come first according to the 'order of appearance'.

"Listen to the big guys, don't be nervous, listen to my password clearly, how many people are there, three or four hundred people, I don't believe it, we can go last in class six!" Guo Xiaosong was relaxed, but most of the comrades in the squad were still very nervous, especially the four recruits, who were in this position for the first time.

'The following is composed of seven companies and six classes, starting the first cannon of today's competition, everyone is welcome! The battalion instructor also found his own "position" after the arrival of the battalion commander Di Lei, and played the beginning of the "lecture and report", and became the "host" of the martial arts competition, which made the battalion instructor very satisfied, and the military and the government were separated.

'Class 6, listen to me!' One, one, one, two, one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four! Guo Xiaosong shouted slogans loudly and led the ten people of the class to the center of the playground, surrounded by all the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion.

'Comrade Chief, the sixth squad of the seventh infantry company, the preparation for the competition and assessment is complete! Please instruct! Guo Xiaosong, who turned around and ran to the battalion commander Di Lei, made a report with a high-pitched 'bobbin'.

'Let's go! ’

The results of a month's training are impossible to be flawless in any case, and the veterans of the sixth squad can say that they have gone through such a battle, but the four recruits under his command will inevitably make mistakes because of nervousness, but Guo Xiaosong, as the squad leader, still shouted his password loudly until Shun Lì completed the 'competition'. ’

'Class 6 is much better than I thought, what do you say?' The commander of the seventh company was quite satisfied with Guo Xiaosong and his sixth-class schedule.

'In just over a month, I have entered the situation, it seems that Guo Xiaosong has worked hard in private, I used to underestimate him, and I always thought that he was not very good, but now it seems that after three days, he should be impressed! From not approving of Guo Xiaosong's promotion to squad leader at the beginning, to admiring it in his heart now, the instructor of the Seventh Company has changed his views from the heart.

'Stand! At ease! At the end of April, the weather in the capital area was not so warm, but when he commanded a 'squad queue', Guo Xiaosong's velvet pants were wet with sweat from head to toe, which was not only caused by nervousness, but he was very anxious, because the overall strength of the sixth class really did not have the ability to compete, and there were too many recruits in their class.

The five companies of the third battalion were all left one by one, except for the machine gun company and the artillery company, which only had six soldiers in each squad, the other three infantry companies were all at full strength, Guo Xiaosong's 'seventh company and six squads' were ranked at the bottom of the three infantry companies, but among the five companies, they belonged to the middle position, which also made the commander of the seventh company breathe a sigh of relief, and he didn't have to give the battalion commander Di Lei an 'inspection'.

'When a soldier does not practice martial arts, it is not considered to fulfill its obligations, martial arts are not practiced, it is not considered a qualified soldier, after this battalion-wide competition, everyone knows, the gap between us and others, do not pull it out and slip, you four recruits, from today, half an hour after the lunch break, there is no need to rest, I will take you, continue to practice the queue, veterans can rest! In this competition, the veterans were able to reply to Guo Xiaosong's password very consistently. Guo Xiaosong didn't want to embarrass them, the gap was only in these recruits, and if he got them done, the gap would be narrowed.

Hu veteran thought that Guo Xiaosong was just talking about it, and when he saw that Guo Xiaosong was really training recruits after lunch, he couldn't help but praise twice, "Really practice, I see if our squad leader is crazy, I was quite tired from a day's training." Why don't you take a break? ’

"Deputy squad, don't talk about the squad leader, the gap is only in the recruits of our class, people are not as good as us, we can't stay for a few months, at most half a year, we will be demobilized and leave, the squad leader he loves to practice, let him practice." In the same class, the only three-year veteran was very open-minded.

'No, I'll have to go down and see,' said Hu after the veteran was demobilized. Staying in the same class with Guo Xiaosong, looking at Guo Xiaosong like a brother, queue training, what is important is 'neat one'. Someone is 'tuning the line' next to it, which can often make rapid progress.

'Why are you here, you are not needed here?' Go back and rest! Seeing veteran Hu coming to help, Guo Xiaosong's heart was warm.

'What are you saying, what are you saying, I'm not from Class 6, I'm still their class deputy, you don't care about me, come on, you look at my gestures, third place, don't pout your ass, okay, good, that's all! Veteran Hu was 'adjusting the line' on the side, whether it was from the 'swing arm height' of the queue or the 'joint position of the back swing', he really helped Guo Xiaosong a lot.

Standing by the window of the office, the battalion commander Di Lei felt that Guo Xiaosong was 'putting on a show' to him and deliberately showed him, but after a few days of lunch, whether he was in the camp or not, he could always know from the mouth of the signal soldier that Guo Xiaosong was 'playing for real', and after training the recruits, the veterans of the sixth squad could no longer rest. The whole class practiced together', and soon the queue training was raised to a certain height, and if it weren't for the rank on the shoulders of these soldiers, which of them were veterans and which were new recruits, they would not be able to tell from the back, and they thought that they were 'the same as the knife cuts.' ’

May Day has always been a festival for the working people, but in the army, this is a festival for the soldiers to celebrate, and every May Day after the restoration of the military rank system, it is also the day of promotion, on this day, as a squad leader, Guo Xiaosong is very honored to wear the rank of 'corporal', the deputy Hu veteran of the sixth class, who was promoted to 'sergeant', and the veterans in other squads have also been promoted to 'senior soldier' and 'corporal'.

As the 'people's soldiers' in the capital area, it is important to participate in local construction, and Guo Xiaosong's 'iron and blood regiment' also received an order from the 'Beijing garrison area' in that year, ordering all the 'iron and blood regiments' to participate in the 'greening work' after the relocation of the suburban counties.

I don't usually feel that I don't work, I didn't expect the tools in the platoon to be so scarce and pitiful, this is what the three squad leaders of the second platoon of the seventh company did not expect, a small number of tools, plus a handful of trolleys, it is impossible to work at all, and the platoon commander is also sad after seeing it.

"Where have the shovels gone, I haven't heard that our tool library has been pryed!" The three squad leaders were summoned to a meeting here, and the second platoon leader wanted to study how to work without tools in the future.

"Old platoon, I know a little about this, as early as last year, during the demobilization of veterans, most of the tools of the second platoon were sold by the demobilized squad leader, so there are fewer tools in our platoon," the fourth squad leader is a four-year soldier old man, and he knows the details here very well.

'Sold?' Why do they sell our platoon tools? ’

Because there were very few tools in the second platoon before, after these people became squad leaders and squad deputies, they used their own allowances to buy some tools to supplement, and did not spend the money of other comrades-in-arms, they were demobilized, of course, the things they spent money to buy, naturally have to return to their roots, what is so strange about this! ’

"Then according to what you say, is it that our platoon has no tools now, and we have to learn from the old squad leaders before learning, and we also have to spend money to buy it, I don't have this money, how much does it cost, if the whole platoon pays it together, I think it's about the same," the fifth squad leader said is true, he is about to work, and the allowance in his hand is not temporarily accumulated, let alone buying a lot of tools, even if he takes out all the money, it is obviously a drop in the bucket.

'That's it, I'm the platoon leader, I'll put it on first, and I'll talk about it later!' With a salary of more than 400 yuan a month, the platoon commander is still a rich man, compared to dozens of yuan a month for a soldier, he can be said to be ten times that of a soldier.

"This can't be done by the old platoon, how can you spend your money, my sister-in-law has no job, you still have to send it home every month, no, no, let's find other ways," the platoon commander's family is well-known in the company's battalion, and the whole family is counting on the second platoon commander to send his salary home.

Guo Xiaosong has not spoken, to be honest, he has money, this money is still given to him by the fourth uncle during the Chinese New Year, but he doesn't want to touch this money, if this money comes out, he must have become another kind of person in the minds of the soldiers, but he doesn't pay for it, and the tools must be there, this is really a tricky thing, fortunately, there are still a few days before the start of work on Monday, although the second platoon leader and the three squad leaders do not have too good ideas, but there is still enough time, they plan to go back and think about it and find a way to solve this matter.
