Chapter XXXVII
(Dreams are broken silently, heartbreaks are traceless, only tears and rain drift into the past, the pain of longing cannot escape, can not be forgotten, in every silent night, the fragile heartstrings are broken by the tears of longing, scattered in the impatience of the red dust!) The love is deep and shallow, a sad song in this life, a turn, the end of the world is strange, and there is only a broken dream and a broken soul! )
The morning light slowly opened the curtain, and it was another gorgeous and colorful morning, bringing freshness to the world.
Xiaoyuan, Xiaoyuan, I'm about to get up, and if I don't get up for a while, I won't be able to catch up with the training of the Armed Forces Department, my mother said vigorously.
I rubbed my hazy sleepy eyes, sat up at once, put on my clothes, shoes and pants, hurried to the bathroom, washed up and packed my luggage.
You kid, you know you're going to the armed forces department early this morning, why are you still too lazy in bed! If you go to the army, you will have to bear it, Mom said eagerly.
I was carrying a personal school bag full of my personal belongings and clothes, and I walked with heavy and difficult steps, and my mother hurried to urge me from time to time.
In this way, they rushed to the gate of the solemn armed department, and on the left and right sides of the gate stood two neatly equipped armed soldiers, looking at the blue helmets they wore on their heads, the fully automatic assault rifles in their hands, and the neat blue army green clothes all over their bodies, majestically and majestically sticking to their posts, without a trace of slackness.
Outside the gate of the Ministry of Armed Forces, there were recruits and their families who were about to be selected, and the families and recruits were whispering, looking at each other, you look at me, I look at you, talking about the shortcomings of the parents.
Suddenly, three armed officers walked out of the gate of the armed forces, one armed officer held a roster of recruits in his hand, the armed officer flipped through the roster, and the person whose name I read next took your luggage and walked in.
Seeing that one recruit after another was called by name, I walked into the armed forces department in full gear, and soon read my name "He Yuan".
My mother looked at me affectionately and said, "Xiaoyuan, I'm about to go to the army, and I can't go to the army than at home, you have to learn to take care of yourself more!" ”。
Well, yes, Mom, don't worry, you and my dad take good care of your body at home, and your son will never disgrace you when he goes.
Well, Mom believes you, looking at Mom's glowing eyes, I can see a little reluctance, I took a few steps forward, hugged Mom with my arms outstretched, and whispered in her ear: "Mom, I know you are reluctant for me to leave you and Dad, but your son promised you that when you make a contribution, when your son returns home."
He let go of his arms and said goodbye to his mother, and walked straight into the armed forces department with his duffel bag on his back.
After the recruits were assembled, the family members who were standing at the gate of the armed forces department left one by one.
A major officer in the armed forces department wearing army green clothes and two bars and one star on his shoulder and arm came over, and the veteran standing in front of the recruit battalion saw the major battalion commander coming over, and hurriedly made a standard salute, Comrade battalion commander, all the personnel of the recruit battalion should be 265 people, but it is 265 people, and after the assembly, please ask the battalion commander to instruct.
I saw that the battalion commander of the major said "take a break", and the veteran immediately made an action to "take a break", and the recruit battalion decided to stretch out his right foot 45 degrees forward after hearing the order.
The battalion commander of the major immediately said, "Tell me," and all the recruits will stand with their right foot outstretched.
The battalion commander continued: "First of all, on behalf of myself and the troops, I would like to warmly welcome you to join the army with honor, some of you are high school graduates, some are college graduates, but no matter how high your education is, you are only a recruit and a rookie with me."
I am very glad that you can actively devote your youth and your enthusiasm to the revolutionary cause, and you are lucky not to be in my hands, and you will be sent directly to the borders of the motherland by armed shuttle bus, where you will learn what it means to be strong and what it means to be a soldier.
Can any of you tell me what a soldier is, obviously, you can't answer me at all, when you have gone through the baptism of recruits, you can be considered a qualified soldier, as for excellence, it depends on the results of your training when you are recruits.
I hope that in the next military life, you can feel what a soldier is, understand what it means to be strong, and understand what responsibility is.
Okay, I'm not going to say anything more, and order "all the new barracks to get on board."
In this way, all the recruits got on the special bus one after another, and then transferred from the special car to the military train, and sat for almost a day and a night, and finally arrived at their destination.
After getting off the bus with the marching bag on his back, he saw that the surrounding area was desert and Gobi, and only the dormitory building and training ground of the army were presented in front of him.
After the recruit camp got off the bus, the contraband was confiscated, and the recruit camp was divided into three recruit companies, and the company was divided into platoons, and after the dormitory was assigned, he walked to the dormitory with his luggage.
The sky here is very blue, the sun is scorching, looking at the people who are on duty here, the dark skin shows a solid physique, and the shining eyes are motionless and wide, observing everything around them.
After arriving at the dormitory, I opened the door and looked at my comrades who had not been making their beds for a long time, so I said hello and cleaned up my beds.
Just as I was tidying up my bed, a comrade-in-arms came over, hello! My name is Li Jianjun, I turned around, stood up straight and responded, "Hello, my name is He Yuan."
A few recruit comrades-in-arms walked in one after another outside the door, they put down their backpacks, each introduced themselves, and soon a veteran walked in, he was the recruit squad leader Zhou Weiguo of our class.
Isn't it a shame to hear the name? Did you think of Zhou Weiguo in the TV series Snow Leopard, in fact, our recruits also reacted like this at that time, but there are many people with the same name and surname in this world, so it is not surprising.
The old squad leader has been in the army for 5 years, and he has an inseparable affection for the troops, and during the three-month intensive training period for the recruits, except for Xia Jun, the commander of the recruit company, my old squad leader can be regarded as taking the most care of me.
After making the beds, the emergency assembly whistle sounded, and everyone hurriedly assembled and came to the training ground.
There was already a lieutenant company commander wearing an army green uniform standing on the training ground, this company commander is called Xia Jun, the company commander of our recruit company, and the three-month recruit training has not suffered in his hands, but it is also because of him that I have a better understanding of both body and mind.
It's too slow, it's too slow, are you snails? An emergency assembly is regarded as child's play by you, and from now on, all 50 push-ups of the recruit company are ready, Xia Jun scolded angrily.
And just like that, the first meeting of our recruit company began with 50 push-ups.
You rookies, how to do a push-up is as listless as an old grandfather, do it standardly, otherwise add another 50, until you are satisfied, Xia Jun continued.
After the push-ups were done, everyone in the recruit company stood up and stood still, waiting for the company commander to give orders.
Originally, today is the first day of the recruit company meeting, I don't want to make an opening statement in this way, but your emergency gathering really makes me feel very dissatisfied, if I am still dissatisfied in the next training, I will add material to you, Xia Junyin said with a smile.
I know that some of you are from college graduates, and the recruits will be transferred directly to non-commissioned officers after three months, but don't feel that you have any sense of superiority, you are all the same with me, you are all rookies, Xia Jun said next.
Starting tomorrow, I will train you on the main training of the recruit company: platoon, capture the enemy, tactics, and physical fitness, and the queue includes: individual queue, squad queue, three squads and four posts, and capture the enemy: including posture and pace, punching, leg technique, anti-strike technique, and grappling boxing.
Tactics: The main training is individual tactics, including: lying down: lying down with a gun, lying down with a gun.
Movement postures: low prostration, high prostration, lateral prostration, high lateral prostration, inter-stop roll, inter-march roll.
Physical fitness: including 5km cross-country, 100-meter sprint, frog jump, push-ups, one-leg stretch, combined physical exercises, etc.
I don't want anyone to be left behind during the training camp, if there is anyone who can't hold on, you can apply to me, and I can report to the top to ask for retirement.
One of the recruits in the recruit company wanted to rebel against the company commander Xia Jun's words, and preemptively said: "What should I do if I am injured during training?" ”。
Did the soldier report before he spoke? Xia Jun reprimanded angrily.
You spoke without making a report, did I let you speak? This is in the army, not your home, and you need to be strict with yourself in everything, but I think the problem you just talked about is very good.
If you don't train strictly according to the requirements during training, then I think you can also roll up and leave, because if you train according to the requirements, I believe that it is impossible to get injured.
I found that you are quite energetic, and you didn't do enough of the 50 push-ups you just did, but in order to reward you for taking what I said as a deaf ear, I now start to run 20 laps around the playground with the class as the center, and shout "I'm a rookie" in the process of running.
Why, none of you are moving! Is it too little to idle 20 laps, then you can add a little more, after Xia Jun said this, the recruit company reacted, and shouted loudly the slogan "I am a rookie" that no one wants to shout while running on the playground in a class.
After the recruits of the other companies were disbanded, they sat on the lawn in the center of the playground and watched our company run on the playground and say "I'm a rookie".
Seeing the other companies sitting comfortably on the lawn, their mouths made mocking voices from time to time, and from time to time they muttered: "Are you funny, the company that was punished on the first day of the recruit company still said "I'm a rookie" one by one."
This may be the blackest black history in the history of the recruit company!
When we heard other companies say this, we were very angry, but compared with Xia Jun, we were even more angry and hated the company commander Xia Jun, because the recruit company made us ugly on the first day.
However, in the days that followed, my opinion of the commander of the Xia Army Company also changed.
After the run, the soldiers of the whole company were wheezing and sweating, there were beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads from time to time, their sweat-soaked shirts were stenching in the sun, and a breeze blew on their cheeks, which felt very comfortable.
The commander of the Xia army company said with a smile: "How is it, is it much more comfortable after running the steps," the soldiers of the whole company looked directly at the commander of the Xia army with bright eyes, and stared at him with vicious eyes, wanting to eat him.
Seeing that we were all sweating and vicious, the commander of the Xia Army Company said, "Yes, you have to have this ruthlessness, this is my soldier", you have to keep this kind of look, this kind of look makes me see whether you are a wolf eating meat or a little sheep being eaten.
Okay, this is the end of today's meeting of the recruit company, and each squad and platoon will be disbanded and brought back.
As soon as the order was given, the platoon leaders and squad leaders led their respective teams to disband and return to the dormitory.
After returning to the dormitory, every recruit was complaining about the commander of the Xia Jun company, eager to eat him, and gritted their teeth one by one, but seeing the old squad leader Zhou Weiguo sitting next to him, he didn't dare to say too much.
I took off my sweat-soaked military uniform, wore a pair of six-point military trousers, and came to the collective bathing room with a towel and toiletries.
The showers in the bathroom are neatly hung on the walls, and there is a thin wall between each showerhead, but there is no door, and all the showers are visible at a glance.
Turn on the sprinkler, hot water gushes out of the sprinkler, the smell of sweat and mud pills on the body wash down, the whole body feels refreshed, after washing back to the dormitory, quietly lying on the bed.
Zhou Weiguo, the old squad leader, from time to time briefly told us about the military life in the army, as well as the hardships of training, when he heard him talk about firearms, everyone in the room had no sleep, and they all pricked up their ears to listen to him talk about the ballistics of firearms and the principle of how to shoot.
After all, I don't think there is a boy who doesn't like guns, and every time he listens to what he says, he goes to bed late.
The recruit company was tired on the first day, but I don't regret it, on the contrary, I feel that I made the right choice, at least since the last time I talked to Wang Junyu, when I came to the army, I found that many things are nothing, and I feel that I can find the meaning and value of my life in the army.
