Chapter 60 The end of the training, the monument cures the heart, and the mountain is back!
About half an hour later.
Shi Jianxiong had a small meeting with the lieutenant.
Taking advantage of this time, Li Xiu also got the identity of a captain from Dong Xing's mouth, and was the company commander of the Sixth Company of the Seventh Frontier Regiment, named Zhao Guoqiang. With the whole company stationed at the forward 734 outpost.
And soon, Zhao Guoqiang returned.
After coming back, he couldn't help but look at Li Xiu a few more times.
However, soon, Zhao Guoqiang looked at the people in the recruit company, nodded slowly, and said, "Although because of the heavy snow, the time was delayed for half a day. ”
"But... You're all good. ”
"One hundred and twenty kilometers, a snowy march, four days and three nights!"
"Yes, good. I didn't lose the blood of a good man! ”
The recruits held their heads high, their bodies straight.
"This is the 734 outpost, one of the most frontline outposts of our army against Tianzhu. The altitude is as high as 3,211 meters, and the highest station is as high as 3,821 meters. It is one of the few areas in the territory where the altitude exceeds 3,000 meters and altitude sickness may occur. ”
"If any of you feel unwell or have trouble breathing, you need to report it to me immediately."
Zhao Guoqiang gave a brief introduction, and then said: "This is the end of your training. You had planned to rest here for a day, and then there would be a military vehicle to transport you back. ”
"But because of the heavy snow closure and everyone's fatigue, the superiors decided to allow you to adjust and return after two days!"
"Now, everybody come with me."
As he spoke, Zhao Guoqiang turned his back and led the people of the recruit company forward.
I don't know if I felt the tension and severity of the border, Zhao Lei, who talks the most on weekdays, also looked straight ahead at this time, his eyes were blazing.
Soon, the crowd came to a stone monument.
The stele is small, reaching only between the calves.
On it, there are dense names.
The snow had stopped yesterday, but the wind had not stopped, and it was blowing on everyone's faces like knives.
Everyone's faces were solemn to the extreme.
No matter how stupid the recruits are, they know that the stone monument in front of them is very heavy.
"Since our 7th Frontier Regiment was stationed on the border of the territory, a total of 41 fighters have remained here forever. The youngest of these people was no more than twenty-one years old.
Some of their deeds were reported, some were not.
Some have left their mark on other parts of the world, and some may be the only ones whose name I remember. But no matter how bad the environment is, no matter how difficult the task, they are not afraid, they do not flinch, they are heroes.
The stele in front of you is very small, and the stele can't accommodate too many people. But... When you come to the Seventh Frontier Regiment, you must be conscious, inherit their will, and fulfill your duties as a field border guard!!"
"You... Is there confidence? Zhao Guoqiang yelled at the recruits.
"Yes!"
Everyone shouted at the top of their voices, their expressions resolute.
"All are silent."
After Zhao Guoqiang said this, he didn't say any more, looking at the stone tablet,
Everyone lowered their heads and looked at the names on the stone tablet, and the images kept flashing in their minds.
The cold wind blew all day long, the distant mountains were severe, and the snow was knee-high.
Towering altitude, intense and boring work, day in and day out.
The seemingly infinitely beautiful territory is full of great dangers.
The responsibility of the border guards is to keep the danger out of the line of defense and not retreat.
People are emotional creatures, and at this moment, the recruits are all shocked in their hearts.
Especially some recruits, they suddenly understood why the veterans had so many feelings about the lonely brave man sung by Li Xiu.
Who said that only those who stand in the light are heroes?
This group of people silently guarded in the night.
Seeing this, Zhao Guoqiang spoke again: "You have been assigned... It's the border guards. ”
"It is the sharp knife of the country"
"The sharp knife is stronger and sharper than the armies of other regions!"
"Now, in the face of the martyrs, I ask you, do you have this ambition!"
Zhao Guoqiang shouted.
"Yes!"
The recruits roared in unison.
"Good. I believe that when the martyrs see that we are now in good shape, they will also look up to the sky and roar, drink and sing. ”
The end point of the recruit company training is the national border.
is the most real front, the most real outpost.
Whether it's a precipitous environment, a tense atmosphere, or a sad stone monument.
All of them have had a major impact on the recruits.
Li Xiu understood that it was precisely because the soldiers used their bodies to build a strong defense line for the border that could not be crossed, that the mountains and rivers are now safe.
Brush brush brush.
Everyone saluted in unison.
Li Xiu and other recruits witnessed the tension and hardship of the front line and mourned the martyrs.
Everyone's spiritual will is sublimated.
This kind of feeling, only really standing in front of the dense small character stone monument, really feeling the cold wind and endless ice and snow here, can feel the shock.
…………………
At night.
The recruits rested at post 734.
After all, 120 kilometers of training greatly consumed the physical strength and spirit of the recruits.
Therefore, instead of letting the recruits rush back on foot, military vehicles were sent to send the recruits back to their original companies.
Of course, no man's land snow road will be taken.
If you go to the no-man's land on the snow road again, it will be too perverted.
The outpost that Li Xiu was assigned to was very special and very steep.
It is not grouped with other garrisons, but is located on a platform jutting forward in the middle of a towering mountain.
Li Xiu and Li Dazhuang were assigned here together.
The terrain of the station is steep, and the vertical height from the ground is about 400 meters.
When Li Xiu first came, it was half past nine in the evening.
Except for the three sentries on duty, the rest of the fighters were gathered around a solid black radio station.
It's been a few years since the radio station, and there is still a hissing murmur when it is played.
However, the fighters listened very carefully.
"Now you are listening to the ZY People's Radio, a literary and artistic simulcast, a toast to the motherland. Here, we would like to extend our cordial greetings to the people of all ethnic groups across the country, regions and overseas Chinese.
“……”
Li Xiu didn't bother them, but was very touched.
There is no electricity, and there is no television, so the daily [News Network] is a radio for listening.
And like this kind of literary and artistic simulcast, Li Xiu is in the company, and he can still see the picture, but he can only listen to the sound of singing here.
I thought that this was the only way for the soldiers stationed in the territory to understand the outside world. Li Xiu felt touched.
After listening to the literary and artistic simulcast, platoon commander Wang Guoqing was also idle.
"You're this year's recruits? Haha, to be able to walk here in the Great Snow Mountain, good, good. Wang Guoqing smiled: "I heard that you also captured armed poachers?" Wang Guoqing looked very curious, and said with a smile: "My news is very well-informed."
Before Li Xiu could say anything, Li Dazhuang pointed at Li Xiu and said, "Platoon leader, our squad deputy has made great contributions in the process of capturing armed poachers!" ”
"Oh? Are you that Li Xiu? Wang Guoqing was surprised.
Li Xiu nodded. He wanted to keep a low profile.
However, if you say it, you will say it.
"Haha, yes, yes." Wang Guoqing glanced at Li Xiu and said gently: "I heard that you also arrested the people from the training department?" Terrible! We were so badly tricked by them. ”
A trace of reminiscence appeared on Wang Guoqing's face: "Do it well, you may be able to get merit this time, and if you take another one, you can be sent to the military academy." ”
Subsequently, Wang Guoqing introduced: "There are a total of thirteen people living in our station. Among them, there were two platoon commanders, one Han platoon commander, one Uyghur platoon commander, and eleven fighters. ”
"On weekdays, our main task is to observe the vigilance mission in this No. 10 mountain area behind the 734 outpost."
"Because it is difficult to use water in our place, every time you need to carry water from two kilometers down the mountain, even if you march in the snow for three days and four nights, I am afraid that you will not be able to take a bath."
Wang Guoqing said a little embarrassed.
Li Xiu and Li Dazhuang said in unison: "It's okay, it's okay." We washed our faces with snow."
"Of course, hands and faces can still be washed, although it is more annoying to close the road due to heavy snow, but also because of the heavy snow, there is water. Usually, the thirteen of us wash our faces with a basin of water, or dip a towel in the water in the tooth jar and wipe our faces once. ”
Wang Guoqing is very talkative and gentle, and he has no arrogance about recruits at all.
Li Xiu once again had an understanding of the suffering living environment in the frontier.
Water resources are so scarce.
Subsequently, Li Xiu and Li Dazhuang washed their faces with snow water, and then made two bunks in the tent.
The size of the tent is a large tent of 12 people, but it can hold up for a few more people temporarily.
In the evening, Li Xiu read a book for a while, but he only stayed up until two o'clock, and then turned off the kerosene lamp early and went to sleep.
At this time, his [Sniper Tactics] experience pillar is also about to be full.
Li Xiu also felt that he had a deeper and deeper understanding of sniper tactics and various cases, and he had almost reached the doorstep.
Not only is the accuracy of the sniper, but also a kind of battlefield thinking, that is, the consciousness of a sniper.
Or rather... What should a sniper do.
After all, I have seen many cases of [sniper tactics], and if I don't form feedback, I am really stupid.
Exhale deeply. A gleam flashed in his eyes. There are only two [Camouflage Latent] and [Sniper Rapid Fire] left, and Li Xiu can exchange for the [Sniper (Mastery)] skill.
Early the next morning, platoon commander Wang Guoqing began to arrange tasks: "Tonight, we have three tasks. ”
"The first task, led by Yang Junhong, deputy squad leader, with two comrades, was carried out, patrolled, observed, and guarded on Mount 10."
"The second task, by me, and Platoon Leader Mamie, lead five comrades down the mountain and carry the water"
"The third task, the left-behind personnel, by Daniel Zhang, is responsible for radio liaison and memory cooking support"
"Two recruits, carry the water with me."
"I hope that after the division of labor, everyone will take their own responsibilities, unify the organization, and ensure safety."
