At night, Chen Fan, who was separated from Yao Yong, wandered back to the company casually, at this time, the number of people in the company was not much, and those who had been soldiers should know that not all veterans left the team at the same time, veterans in various regions would leave the army in batches, and Chen Fan and Yao Yong happened to be the last batch, looking at the barracks that were already half empty, Chen Fan found an empty bed at random and lay down.

"Stay for three more days and leave......"

Looking at the bed board on the top bunk, Chen Fan's thoughts seemed to return to that night five years ago, when it was about ten o'clock in the middle of the night, and their group of recruits was also the last to board the train, at that time, his mother cried like many people in the farewell procession, and in Chen Fan's impression, his father, who had never shed tears, actually hid aside and secretly wiped his tears, that scene, so that Chen Fan, who had already decided not to shed tears, finally couldn't help crying.

After more than ten hours of sitting on the train, and then two or three hours of car, I finally came to the unit where I am now, a group of young children, came to a strange place, each of them seemed relatively silent, more than 30 fellow villagers were divided up by four recruit companies, and Chen Fan was also separated from Yao Yong.

The enthusiasm of the squad leader and the company leader gradually relaxed Chen Fan's nervous mood, but as everyone knows, this is just the beginning of a nightmare, although before choosing to be a soldier, Chen Fan was ready to endure hardships, but he didn't expect that the recruit's three-month training would simply cost him half his life, children from the city, their physical fitness is generally not good, Chen Fan, who has studied in the countryside for three years, thinks that his physical fitness is not bad, but when he arrives here, Chen Fan finds that his physical fitness is simply a scum, Of all the training subjects, maybe the only thing you can do is shooting.

Speaking of shooting, it was different from now, each person only had five bullets, and he could hit more than 45 rings, which was good, and Chen Fan could stabilize at about 48 rings every time he hit the target, and the entire company, maybe only the instructor was slightly more powerful than Chen Fan, which is why Chen Fan was later selected as a sniper, of course, this is all a later story. In short, the recruit lasted for three months, which made Chen Fan feel unprecedented pain, but after gradually adapting to the training, he didn't feel tired, even if he entered the teaching team later, he could persevere.

After being a soldier for five years, the only regret is that he has never been on a mission, and he has participated in many exercises, but everyone knows that the exercises are just acting according to the script.

Thoughts are all over the sky, unconsciously, the night is late, there are other comrades in the room who are back, seeing Chen Fan lying on the bed in a daze, no one bothered him, when the lights out whistle sounded, Chen Fan, who was immersed in the memories, woke up, he smiled self-deprecatingly, came to the laundry field alone, looked at the starry sky, secretly lit a cigarette, finished smoking, said hello to the guy who stood on the first sentry, returned to the room, and fell asleep.

The next day, a military truck came to the camp, and the veterans were notified that the veterans would pack their own luggage and send it to the railway station for consignment, and when they were discharged the day after tomorrow, they only needed to carry some simple things, and it took a whole morning, Chen Fan left a set of all his military belongings as a souvenir, including epaulettes, collar flowers, cockades, and various standard clothing, some things should have been handed over and strictly forbidden to be taken away, but he still secretly stayed, and was about to leave the army. Just keep a thought.

In the evening, a farewell party was held in the company, Chen Fan and another fellow named Zhou Tian got drunk, this was the first time Chen Fan was drunk since he became a soldier, so drunk that when he was named at night, he couldn't help but vomit on the ground, in the second half of the night, about three o'clock in the morning, Chen Fan got up in a daze, came to the barracks, took the gun from the sentry's hand, and said to the guy standing sentry: "It's the last night, let me stand on the guard again." ”

The sentry nodded, stood aside silently, and stood with Chen Fan for more than an hour, and then changed to the next shift of sentry and continued to stand with Chen Fan until dawn.

The train was at seven o'clock in the evening on the third day, but from the army to the railway station, there were several hours of car on the way, and at about three o'clock in the afternoon, the left-behind veterans of the entire company beat gongs and drums, and sent Chen Fan and several other veterans to the meeting place, and after the farewell ceremony, they were all sent to the railway station by military vehicles.

The political commissar of the regiment spoke at length for more than ten minutes in front of all the veterans, and then the veterans began to remove the epaulettes on their shoulders, as well as collar flowers and cockades, I don't know who was the first to start crying, in short, that cry provoked all the veterans present to cry. The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place. Seeing this scene, Chen Fan couldn't help but burst into tears, when he was young, the cadres who sent the soldiers began to urge the veterans to board the car, and the crying became more intense, the veterans kept hugging and saying goodbye to their comrades, and finally, they climbed into the departing military vehicle.

I have to say that these guys cried and laughed fast, and as soon as the military vehicle drove out of the gate of the troops, these guys who had just burst into tears cheered.

"Finally leaving, hahaha, Big Y City, I'm Hu Hansan coming back again......"

"Brother Jun, why are you going back?"

"When I get off the train, the first thing is, of course, to eat a plate of crayfish first......"

"I'll go, where are the crayfish to eat in this season?"

"No, my family refrigerates a batch of crayfish every summer, just to keep it for the winter."

"Foreign ......"

"Hadron, what about you? Why did you go back? ”

"Go to my sister's, my sister opened a KTV, I heard that there are many beautiful young ladies...... Hey. ”

"Damn, there is such a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier, you kid dare to eat alone......"

"That's it, such a good resource, we've been holding it back for five years, you kid is not kind."

"Haha, together, ...... together"

The villagers chatted about their thoughts after going home on the military car, Chen Fan and Yao Yong sat in the back seat of the carriage and listened to the music, interjecting two sentences from time to time, and soon, the military car came to the railway station, it was the retirement season, and the railway station specially left a special passage for veterans, and everyone arrived at the railway station, without queuing, directly from the military channel into the station. The train station where they are stationed is the departure station, they don't have to wait, the cadres who sent the soldiers took this group of energetic young men and boarded the train to Y City directly, and a carriage was half occupied by this group of veterans, Chen Feng and Yao Yong chose a position by the window, put down their luggage and sat down.
