"Everyone, stop there, I have something important to announce. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "When everyone was free to move, Team Leader Guan walked over with a smile on his face.
"Isn't there any happy event?" Xiaomei was the first to rush in front of Team Leader Guan.
Qiao Xiaojing, Cuiyu and the others also came over, each expecting something good to come out of Team Leader Guan's mouth.
"It's not a happy event, but it's definitely a big deal. Team Leader Guan swept everyone with his eyes for a week, and saw the team members standing beside him in different postures, all of them looked forward to the results, so he continued, "In view of the fact that there are many recruits and the foundation is poor, after the study and decision of our guerrilla party committee, this week's large-scale training activities for the whole team will be launched, and the whole team will be selected from the best. ”
"Pacesetter?" the female soldiers wondered in unison.
"Yes, pacesetter. Team Leader Guan's tone was very affirmative, she looked out the window, and said thoughtfully, "If anyone can be rated as the pacesetter of our guerrilla team, he will be commended by the superior organization, and it is not just the honor of which group, but the honor of our entire guerrilla team, and this honor is worth remembering for the rest of his life." ”
Everyone in the women's group felt the sense of honor overflowing in Team Leader Guan's words, like a turbulent warm current flowing in everyone's body, beating everyone's thoughts and nerves.
After Team Leader Guan left, Xiao Ye and Xiao Mei went out with a broom, Ah Zi picked up the book of Comrade ** and read it, and the rest of the people got together in twos and threes to chat about the "selection of pacesetters".
Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu were thoughtful, and returned to the bedroom with their heads drooped.
Silence, or contemplation, makes the whole bedroom seem extraordinarily peaceful.
"I want to work hard, and this time I must be the pacesetter of our guerrillas. "Jade broke this tranquility first. She didn't do any foreshadowing and went straight to the point.
"I support you, I believe you will succeed, come on!" Qiao Xiaojing looked calm and sincere.
"What about you?" Cuiyu tilted her head to look at Qiao Xiaojing.
"I'm just like you, I don't want to lose this opportunity, let's chase me. Qiao Xiaojing was obviously a lot more subtle.
"After five levels and six generals, come to him as a heroine!" Cuiyu made a "Three Kingdoms" Guan Yunchang look.
"Okay, let's work together!" Qiao Xiaojing stretched out her hand and clapped her hands with Cuiyu, and both of them laughed.
It was getting late, and the whole small mountain village was quiet again, and the leveled training ground was empty.
In the night, there were two black shadows moving in the women's training ground, as long as they got a little closer, they could be judged by the sound of their voices that they were not others, but Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu, who were determined to become the "pacesetters" of the whole team during the day.
They deliberately chose to secretly go to the training ground to practice when the other team members returned to the dormitory.
At this time, they were in a push-up competition, and each of them counted for themselves, and it could be heard from the voices that they had done more than one hundred and seventy, and both of them were panting, looking at the posture, no one wanted to admit defeat in advance.
"One hundred and seventy-four. Qiao Xiaojing reported.
"One hundred and seventy-seven. "Jade counts.
"One hundred and seventy-five. ”
"One hundred and seventy-eight. ”
“......”
"Two hundred and six. Qiao Xiaojing counted the numbers, with a trilling voice when she spoke.
"Two hundred and eight. Jade counted, and spoke with the same trill.
"I'm going to catch up with you soon, come on!" Qiao Xiaojing still insisted on doing when she spoke.
"Joke, as long as I can have one more than you, who wins and who loses in the end?" Cuiyu was obviously confident in her strength. Like Qiao Xiaojing, she didn't stop when she spoke.
"Two hundred and twenty-one. Qiao Xiaojing gritted her teeth and said it when she counted it, she gasped and said to Cuiyu intermittently, "I, I really can't do it anymore, I've reached the limit, I admit defeat." ”
"You can't just give up, and the success of many things often depends on who can persevere until the last second with extraordinary willpower. Jade also kept panting, and almost word by word jumped out of her mouth as she spoke.
"I really can't hold on, at most do two more, do two more, and it will work a miracle. Xiao Jing's every word has a trill.
"We must insist, let's shout together, do five more, just five. "It's not hard to tell that Jade is gritting her teeth when she speaks.
"One. Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu said in unison.
"II. Cuiyu's voice had deteriorated, and Qiao Xiaojing almost didn't shout.
When Cuiyu shouted "three", Qiao Xiaojing was already lying on the ground, as if she had lost consciousness, flat against the ground.
"Get up, hurry up, there's two left, it's two, hold on for another three seconds, it's two. Cuiyu held her hands stiffly, breathing like a frog, waiting for Qiao Xiaojing's response.
It's a pity that Qiao Xiaojing raised her head weakly and tried to support her body with her hands, but finally failed. At this moment, she felt as if her body weighed a thousand pounds, and her sore arms seemed to have no strength.
Cuiyu watched Qiao Xiaojing give up the idea of getting up again, watching her lie flat on the ground motionless, the only evidence that could feel that she was still alive was panting like a cow, Cuiyu's arms also lost what little strength she had left, and her whole body was lying on the ground, her sweat-soaked face clinging to the cold ground.
After about half an hour, Jade slowly got up, patted the dirt on her body, and wiped the mud that had dried with her hands.
Qiao Xiaojing was still lying flat on the ground, her breathing had recovered to be gentle, and when she heard Cuiyu's cry, she just agreed with "um, um".
Seeing that Qiao Xiaojing didn't want to get up from the ground, Cuiyu squatted down to support her, Qiao Xiaojing was like a child lying on the bed, sleepy-eyed, and said with a smile: "Do you feel it? When you are tired, lying on the ground is more comfortable than lying on the bed!"
"Who doesn't want to lie down? However, since we have made up our minds, then we should go all out to work hard, to fight, no matter what the final result is, as long as we do our best, spare no effort to fight, defeat, no regrets, although defeat is still glorious. Cuiyu helped Qiao Xiaojing and walked towards the bedroom while chatting.
"I understand these things, and I don't want to fall on my own, but I. Qiao Xiaojing was a little ashamed.
"You still haven't recovered from that injury. "Cuiyu has obviously matured a lot during her time in the guerrillas, "What I want to say is that we have lost too much time, living a life that is not as good as pigs and dogs in the drunken house, suffering humiliation and bullying, and now it is finally on the right path, and there is a rare good opportunity in front of us, and we should cherish the opportunity even more!"
"Yes, it is true that we do not have more opportunities than young soldiers, and we should cherish them. Of course, we are not just for the sake of the label of 'pacesetter', but also to improve our own quality and expand our influence through competition for pacesetters, so that we can contribute greater strength to future revolutionary work. Qiao Xiaojing said the real purpose of selecting the "pacesetter".
It is true that Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu have understood a lot of great truths after exercising in the guerrillas during these days.
Every day after that, Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu used all their free time to strengthen military training and political theory study, in addition to actively participating in various activities in the group, and always "practiced more than others, learned more than others, and worked harder than others".
The days are getting longer and longer, the sun is shining longer and longer, the house is hot, and the shade is cool, everyone likes to gather in the shade of the trees, either to exchange experiences, or to close their eyes and recuperate, or to gossip, but Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu are not very involved in this kind of activity, to be precise, they are less and less involved in this kind of activity.
Many people saw that they were sweating all over their faces, and they were still obsessed with the sea of books, and many people looked sideways.
Such a scene has also become a good story for the guerrillas in the small mountain village, and many people who once despised Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu gave them a thumbs up.
Even Ah Zi saw the changes in Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu, and couldn't help but praise the other sisters: "Sister Xiaojing and Sister Cuiyu, who used to be free and scattered, are gone, and now Sister Xiaojing and Sister Cuiyu have become examples for us to learn!"
"It's a testament to your praise. The other sisters said the same.
The closer to the day of the selection of "pacesetters", the louder the call for Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu to win the bid, and it is not only the girls in the women's group who are optimistic about them, not only ordinary soldiers, but also Captain Wang, political commissar and Team Leader Guan.
The selection of "pacesetters" was held in the open-air venue of Xiaoshan Village, and the venue was simple but very simple, and the banner with the words "Xiaoshan Village Guerrilla Pacesetter Selection Conference" hanging above the rostrum was extremely eye-catching.
There was a table on the rostrum, and in the middle sat the political commissar of the superior organization, Captain Wang and the political commissar were separated on both sides of the political commissar, and the leaders of each group sat next to Captain Wang and the political commissar in turn.
Their main task today is to score the candidates, deliberate, and select "pacesetters."
Standing in the audience were guerrillas and villagers from small mountain villages, who not only came to see the demeanor of the pacesetters participating in the election, but were also invited by the political commissar as a notary public to collectively witness the fairness and fairness of the selection activity.
Each group recommends two candidates, arranged in two rows according to their height, two people in each column become opponents, the topic is in a large box on the rostrum, a question is drawn at random, two people answer successively, and the judges ruling, the wrong answer is eliminated.
The topics cover a wide range of topics, including soldier training, strategic deployment, political work, duty, ethnic policy, military-civilian relations, guerrilla warfare, and so on.
Obviously, it is definitely not enough to rely on rote memorization, it requires the soldiers to accumulate over time, and it also requires the soldiers to understand the current situation.
Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu both eliminated each other's opponents and successfully entered the next level.
As the number of players decreases, the competition becomes more and more intense.
The contestants were arguing on the stage, and the competition once entered a white heat.
After nearly four hours of fierce competition, Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu finally reached the semifinals.
Reaching the top four does not mean that it is possible to become a "pacesetter", according to the requirements of Fang Political Commissar, the top four players not only test their kung fu, but also test practical ability, strategy and tactics, combat deployment and other subjects, of course, the recognition of the audience is also an important indicator.
Due to the long time, Political Commissar Fang announced that the semi-finals would be held on another day.
Qiao Xiaojing and Cuiyu had chapped lips and dragged their tired bodies back to the bedroom.
At this time, the sun is already shining obliquely, and it is about to set in the west.
