The recruits were exhausted by the intense training, and the squad leader teased from time to time: "Wake up earlier than a chicken, sleep later than a young lady, work more tired than a donkey, and speak better than anyone else."

What's so strange? Think being a soldier is to raise an uncle? Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, the country spends money to support you, can it be so comfortable? ”

So the recruits were looking forward to the rest day on the class schedule, and they couldn't wait to break the squad leaders in half for a second to make the time extremely long, Ye Fei felt that just a few days seemed to be centuries, obviously he was still free at home not long ago, but it was like a long time ago.

Finally survived until Saturday, the wake-up whistle sounded on time, and the dormitory was full of complaints, Xiao Yu said with a smile: "People don't rest in the rest system, hurry up." ”

System? From the time I entered the army, it was a system from head to toe, and the system did not rest? Is it still called a break?

Ye Fei reluctantly got up from the warm quilt nest, got dressed and equipped to go out for exercise, Xiao Yu smiled: "Don't do it today, hurry up and clean up!" ”

Ye Fei was stunned, is there such a good thing? It's been a lot of tossing in the past few days, and it's been a day less to, which makes everyone very happy. But soon no one will be able to laugh out loud, and on the first day off, a big cleaning is arranged in the morning, and the recruits are arranged to do laundry in the afternoon!

The barracks are probably the only place where they have returned to their prime, without any modern housework, and recruits have to learn how to clean with their own hands.

Don't look at the dormitory is not big, but the corners and corners, no matter where you have to clean up, after cleaning up, the platoon leader on duty checks, you have to wear white gloves to touch it, the white is still clear, there is gray, the consequences are at your own risk!

Sweeping and mopping the floor, wiping bricks and windows or pediatrics, washing clothes made the recruits of the whole company sad - no one would, even if there was a hands-on one, it was a role model, a group of young men with dirty clothes and staring at each other, and they couldn't even find anyone who could steal the teacher.

The squad leaders don't care whether you can wash it or not, you have to wash the dirty clothes if you twist it around, and even arrange a time to wash the clothes, so you have to wash it, and you can't wash it without washing.

There was no way to do it, Ye Fei simply rubbed and washed it, it looked like that, but in fact, he couldn't tell if it had any effect.

The comrade-in-arms who slept Ye Fei led the bed was called Wang Xiaodong, he was even more simply, he was forced by the squad leader to be anxious, stuffed the dirty clothes into the basin, got a little blister and wet them, and then fished them out even if they were washed, and the reason was sufficient: I washed it, but I didn't wash it, can I blame it?

The most unexpectedly young squad leader Xiao didn't see the flaws.

Everyone is extremely disgusted with the light combat armor of the veterans and squad leaders, how energetic, there is no need to wash it, at most wipe it with a rag twice.

At ten o'clock in the morning, a whistle pulled the recruits out of the door after a long morning, and the platoon leader on duty opened the roster, counted the heads one by one, and then reiterated the rest system without rest, and told each class to maintain good dormitory hygiene.

Ye Fei originally thought that this was just a whim for a long line, but he didn't want to come back at three o'clock in the afternoon, and he didn't save it at eight o'clock in the evening, and he didn't let everyone be idle at other times, one whistle every three minutes, and one ring every five minutes. Ye Fei and his comrades-in-arms finally understood that rest was just not training, and all the chores that were put aside for the time being because of training came out.

Wang Xiaodong said frankly: "This is not training, at least I know what I want to do for a while, don't be in a hurry, this is good, maybe something will be arranged......" Before he finished speaking, the whistle sounded again, but everyone thought so.

Rest is more exhausting than training, and the reality is really helpless, and no one wants to rest anymore. After a long time, every rest day, everyone would sit on the bed and wait, and immediately rush out when they heard the whistle.

Later, I don't know which bold recruit asked the platoon leader if he could let everyone have a good rest on his rest day, and don't gather at every turn. The platoon leader said bluntly: "Don't arrange more things for you to do, what should you do if you stay homesick and have an accident?" This is the root cause of not resting on rest days.

I don't know which one invented such a "great" theory, but if you don't let everyone be idle, nothing will happen?

At noon one day, Ye Fei and several other comrades-in-arms were lining up to walk back after cleaning the canteen, and suddenly found that the three squad leaders were running out of the gate quickly in a line. Ye Fei wondered what the few of them were doing so fast, and later realized that it was a recruit in the second class who was homesick and wanted to be ruthless, so he escaped secretly.

Running away is not a glorious word no matter where it is, especially in the army, and there is another way of saying it, called desertion.

Despite the reluctance to keep the recruits in the army, deserters are still despised by all...... Of course, there are many who are envious.

The news spread, everyone was overwhelmed, the training base is located in the depths of the grassland, the nearest villages and towns are also more than ten kilometers away, the fleeing recruits usually do not show the mountains and water, the military quality is average, how can it be so easy to successfully pass through the grassland of more than ten kilometers?

Sure enough, as soon as the lunch break ended, the person was arrested, and now he can be regarded as famous in the recruit company, because he was the first recruit to escape in the entire base, and the second company showed a "face", and the commander of the Xiao company will approve it for several days, and a punishment will be put into the recruit file, no matter where he goes from then on, this punishment will follow his file.

In addition to this deserter, there are many recruits who would rather go home and clean up than stay, but they are all recruits in the first and third rows, and none in the second platoon, which makes Jin Yueming, the commander of the second platoon, very satisfied.

But as the old saying goes, people have no long-term worries, and sure enough, the good times don't last long, one day at noon, Wang Xiaodong returned to the dormitory after the last one, swept away the previous depression, and couldn't hide the joy in his heart: "I'm going to find the company commander, quit ......" between the eyebrows looked puffed.

The comrades-in-arms were stunned, many people wanted to be like him, but they couldn't muster up the courage, but they didn't expect him to be the first recruit to eat crabs in the second row.

The tragic second platoon commander soaked in soup without any suspense during the holiday, and the squad leader Xiao Yu also ate a meal at the head of the platoon, and since then Wang Xiaodong has become a key member of the second platoon. even mobilized Wang Xiaodong's family to call to do Wang Xiaodong's work. In short, as long as he can think of a way, there is nothing that does not need to be on him, just to persuade him to stay honestly, and not to mention the stubble of sending him home after making a report.

Only then did Wang Xiaodong understand that the so-called sending home was to weave a big net waiting for the recruits who wanted to go home to throw themselves into the net, but in fact, it was a means for the company to pick out the restless factors among the recruits, and they wanted to leave? Daydreaming!

Only then did others understand Company Commander Xiao's "sinister" intentions, and several recruits who were lively because Wang Xiaodong proposed to leave.

Perhaps it was persuasion that worked, but Wang Xiaodong finally stayed.

Recruits who suffered similar to Wang Xiaodong, there are more than a dozen in the entire second company, and the whole base is no less than three digits, but except for the six recruits who returned to their hometowns because they were not physically fit to serve, there is only one recruit who successfully returned to his hometown because he didn't want to stay, and it is said that what awaits him will be a series of serious punishments, at least he must be a black household for a few years.

Many years later, Ye Fei realized that the recruit who was sent away was indeed unwilling to stay, but he did not send him home, but sent him to other training bases, playing a trick.

This hand is indeed clever, and from then on, all the recruits have become honest, and only dare to think in their hearts, and never dare to say it out of their mouths.

Everyone overheard the veteran mention Xiao Yulin, all grinning, saying that this Xiao Company Commander gave him the nickname "Political Maniac", his mouth is notoriously big, to put it bluntly, it is verbose, one thing can make him break it and then crush it, divide it into several small points, and then divide it into several small points, and then divide it completely depending on the emotion, and then start to reason and lay out the facts sentence by sentence, starting to talk from dinner, and can talk until twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

Xiao Yu mentioned it with palpitations, and once called names, he actually talked from eight o'clock to midnight, the weather was cold, and everyone stood upright for more than four hours.

As soon as a few anecdotes came out, the recruits were like tigers and wolves, and no one would make do with him if they could get away from Xiao Lian for a long time, for fear of annoying the political maniac and being dragged into the office by him to talk.
