Chapter XVII: The Oath Under the Banner of the Army
Early in the morning, Li Xiaowan took Lan Xinyue and Zhu Xiaoqi back to Xiyuan.
"You go and give the order to the vice-captain and the other three detachment leaders to the conference room for a meeting. She instructed Lan Xinyue.
"Yes, Captain. Lan Xinyue took the order and left.
"What about me, captain?" Zhu Xiaoqi asked blankly.
"You, go back to the firewood room and stay honestly!" Li Xiaowan looked at the fat man, and she had a headache.
This recruit's egg is just an egg, and it will break if you are not careful, and it is like a grain of mouse droppings, and it will ruin a good pot of soup wherever you put it. Although she hadn't heard any rumors yet, there was no doubt that the officers and soldiers of Dusk Xuewei were affectionate to her decision to keep Zhu Xiaoqi.
Now, she had to call everyone for a meeting, listen to their opinions, and then discuss how to place the first male soldier of Twilight.
When it was time for the scheduled meeting, Li Xiaowan walked into the conference room. At a glance, she only saw the two sisters of the Lan family.
"Report to the captain, the captain of the first sub-team, Donna, the captain of the second sub-team, asked for sick leave, the captain of the second sub-team, Yuan Shishi, asked for personal leave, and the captain of the third sub-team, Zhang Qian, she-" Lan Xinyue stood up and said embarrassedly.
"What's wrong with her?" Li Xiaowan's expression grew cold.
She locked herself in a confinement cell. Lan Xinyue said, "She said that if she didn't come, she would rather admit punishment than let a group of swans follow a turtle all day long." ”
"Hmph, now everyone has become characterful!" Li Xiaowan snorted coldly. "Herald!"
"Here!" a female soldier ran in quickly.
"You go and tell the three squad leaders to run to the conference room in two minutes. Otherwise, I'll let them take a long vacation collectively!" Li Xiaowan said with a cold face.
"Yes!"
"Captain, it seems that these girls are having an affair with you!" Lan Xinyi smiled, "It seems that they are all afraid that you will throw this male soldier to them." ”
"I have a headache too. This Zhu Xiaoqi, I can't stay by my side and train by myself, right?" Li Xiaowan smiled bitterly.
"I don't want it either, you can see who the stuff is for!" Lan Xinyi smiled and waved her hand.
A minute later, Donna, Yuan Shishi, and Zhang Qian rushed in, glanced at Li Xiaowan weakly, and quietly sat down in their place.
"At today's meeting, there is only one topic to discuss the placement of recruit Zhu Xiaoqi. I'd like to hear your opinions. Li Xiaowan said straight to the point.
Everyone chose silence. No one has any experience in leading male soldiers, and no one wants to take over a hot potato. A group of female soldiers is stuffed with a male soldier, like an eighty-year-old lady with a flower on her head, how awkward and awkward, how ugly and ugly.
"Why, when you encounter some difficulties, you don't speak?" Li Xiaowan frowned.
There was still silence.
"You all reject him, I can understand that. Most of you and your soldiers are the proud daughters of the heavens, and you look down on a lowly tramp in your eyes, and are even ashamed to be with him. But you forgot, Twilight Xuewei, it's an army!And you're all soldiers, and he's your comrade-in-arms now!" Li Xiaowan tapped lightly on the table, her voice revealing a majesty, "A pampered life has given you a sense of superiority in squinting at people. But you have forgotten that on the long border of the empire, it is thousands of ordinary young people like him who guard your happy life day and night!"
Her words made several captains can't help but bury their heads lower. Even Lan Xinyi felt a little blushing. However, no one is still willing to take the initiative to take Zhu Xiaoqi. Because the major newspapers in the early days of God Capital were all about him, and what followed him was endless trouble.
"You've disappointed me. I'm really worried that when Twilight Xuewei goes to war, he will disappoint this country!" Li Xiaowan sighed.
"Captain, don't say it. Hand him over to me!" Lan Xinyue raised her head and said resolutely.
Lan Xinyi looked at her sister in surprise, her eyes full of anger. Although she repeatedly told her sister to stay out of the matter, she didn't expect her to be disobedient in the end.
"Okay! Tomorrow morning, everyone will gather and hold a ceremony for the new recruits to enter the camp! Regarding Zhu Xiaoqi, I know that you have opinions, worries, confusions, and doubts, and I will give you an answer tomorrow!" Li Xiaowan finished speaking, and walked away.
"Xinyue, do you know what you're doing?" After everyone left, Lan Xinyi grabbed her sister and asked angrily.
"Didn't do anything. I'll take the turtle in your eyes back to stew and drink, maybe make up for it!" Lan Xinyue said coldly, shook off her hand and walked out.
"You'll regret it, Xinyue!" Lan Xinyi's angry voice came from behind her.
Knowing that the detachment leader Lan Xinyue had received the recruit Zhu Xiaoqi, the fourth detachment immediately exploded. After deliberation, the squad leaders decided to resolutely resist this recruit. So, when Lan Xinyue found her squad leader, there was such a scene.
"First squad leader, how do I treat you on weekdays?"
"Like sisters!"
"Then I'm in trouble now, should you help me?"
"Help! But if it's for a man, no matter how good a sister is, she will turn her face!"
“......”
"Second squad leader, am I good to you?"
"Grace is like a mountain!"
"I have something I want to ask you, can you agree?"
"Promise, but if you force me to accept a man I don't like, you might as well kill me with a knife!"
“......”
......
In desperation, Lan Xinyue had no choice but to keep Zhu Xiaoqi by her side and temporarily serve her as a herald.
Full of grievances, she walked towards the firewood room, intending to tell Zhu Xiaoqi of the team's decision.
"This military uniform is really magnificent!"
"Private rank, silver shining, bring might!"
"Ah, Combat Boots! After countless intimate contacts with you, you finally belong to me!"
When she arrived, Zhu Xiaoqi was standing happily beside the bed, looking at a bed of new equipment.
Looking at Zhu Xiaoqi, who was full of energy, Lan Xinyue's heart was sour, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
"Xiao Qi, you must fight for me!" she sighed.
In the early morning of the next day, the melodious military horn echoed in the West Garden. This is the first time that Du Xuewei has gathered all members after the return of captain Li Xiaowan.
The officers and men knew in their hearts that today was a big day for Du Xuewei. Whether they like it or not, Twilight's history will be rewritten, and a male soldier will come into their lives and spend time with them. As for what changes he will bring to Twilight, there is nothing to see at the moment but trouble.
The female soldiers lined up in a neat line and quickly ran out of the barracks and towards the playground.
More than 300 female soldiers, divided into four neat squares, quickly lined up at the training ground. What was different from the past was that on the right side of the quadruple phalanx, the team leader Lan Xinyue stood alone, and a young male soldier stood behind him. He was wearing the military uniform of the Heavenly Dragon Empire and carrying the rank of private on his shoulder, looking energetic and high-spirited.
Outside the four phalanxes, at the other end of the playground, three beautiful female soldiers in ceremonial dresses and swords at their waists jointly guarded a red flag.
"Count the number of people in each detachment!" Donna, the leader of the rotating detachment, clearly reverberated throughout the audience. Zhu Xiaoqi stayed, and she wanted to face her day and night, and her mood was extremely depressed.
"A detachment, report the number!"
"Second team, report the number!"
“......”
“......”
The officers of the detachments quickly cleared up the numbers.
"Report to the watchman, a detachment should have reached 80 people, but it actually reached 77 people, three of whom served as flag guards. ”
"Report to the watchman, the second detachment should be 80 people, but it is 80 people. ”
“......”
"Report to the watchman, the quadruple should be up to 80 people...... There should be 81 people, but there are 81 people!"
The slight mistake of the attendant of the fourth detachment made everyone's eyes quietly raise their eyes to a certain place outside the phalanx of the fourth detachment.
"All of them have - take a break, stand upright!"
Donna raised her arms into fists and turned around, running towards the captain Li Xiaowan.
Lan Xinyi, who was standing side by side with her, quietly retreated behind her.
"Report to the captain, the new recruits have been prepared for the camp ceremony, the whole team of Dusk Snow Guard should be 321 people, but it is actually 321 people, please instruct!"
"According to plan!" Li Xiaowan raised her hand and saluted in return, saying majestically.
"Yes!"
Donna briskly ran to the center of the line.
"All of them have - take a break, stand upright!"
"The ceremony for the new recruits to enter the camp begins now!
Smack!
The boots slammed on the ground, and the three female flag guards strode forward with their heads held high, their expressions solemn and solemn.
The female soldier in the center of the flag guards holds the flag in both hands, and her arms are lightly stretched forward, and the military flag is waved in the wind! On the flag, a golden shield and a silver sword are embroidered, and the two are perfectly inlaid together, forming a pattern symbolizing the strength of the country.
"Salute to the flag!" Donna's voice rang out again.
Raising their hands and performing a sacred military salute, the eyes of the officers and soldiers converged on the red military flag in an instant.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and a long-lost sense of sacredness strongly impacted Zhu Xiaoqi's heart. The flag bearer marched forward solemnly, the sound of footsteps, every time it hit his heart, he heard the most beautiful melody of life!
Looking at the military flag that hunted in the wind, and at the flame that burned like blood, his eyes were full of tears.
The military flag is the soul of an army, carrying the glory and glory forged by generations of soldiers with blood and loyalty, and inheriting the unique dignity and pride of this army!
"Rite over!"
The military flag was in place, and the officers and men lowered their hands and withdrew their gaze.
"Recruit Zhu Xiaoqi, out of the ranks!"
Zhu Xiaoqi ran out of the queue with his head held high.
"Swear to the flag!"
Zhu Xiaoqi snapped to the military flag and raised his hand to salute.
"Responsibility, with honor, with mission, with dignity! loyalty, with life!"
Zhu Xiaoqi had already been familiar with the oath, but when he shouted these words in the face of the military flag, he felt that his body was filled with a new strength, and a heavy burden was also pressed on his shoulders.
Donna was about to speak, when a man's voice rang out again.
"As the first male soldier in the history of Dusk Xuewei, I, Zhu Xiaoqi, swear to the military flag that I will use my life to protect my comrades-in-arms, protect Dusk Xuewei, protect the people of Tianlong, and protect my motherland!"
