The respect is still there,Chen Ming looked at Zhao Haojie, who was looking for a place to dig out the snow,Zhao Haojie, who was looking for a place to dig snow,Said solemnly:"Everyone owes you a thank you。

Medical soldier Zhao Haojie was stunned when he heard this, straightened up his waist and laughed, and stretched out his hand to stop Chen Ming's arm: "Why do you kid sound so sentimental?" ”

"It's not you, it's us, haha."

Chen Ming smiled bitterly, didn't speak, and didn't know how to respond, so he could only silently say thank you in his heart.

Soon, the basin brought by the two was full of snow, and the snow-white and dazzling snowflakes were very porcelain by them with their hands, and they were twenty or thirty centimeters higher than the basin, and they walked back with the basin talking and laughing.

The squad leader, Xiong Jiuchang, is big, and he carries the cooking guys, and he has a small wok-wok-stud on his back.

Lunch is not complicated, after the snow melts, boil a little pickle porridge, that is, water with rice, and a little pickles made by the cooking class, this porridge with a little salty taste, is their lunch.

And this is also the daily life of a border guard.

Regarding eating, Chen Ming also asked, even if the hard conditions of the plateau environment cannot be changed for the time being, there should be no problem with eating.

Compressed biscuits, canned meat, etc., are not rare, if the patrol officer can bring a few compressed biscuits and eat them when they are hungry, isn't it more convenient than carrying a pot with rice and charcoal?

To these questions,Medical soldier Zhao Haojie also gave an answer,Compressed biscuits don't look heavy,But if you want to solve the long-term supply of a company,To say the least, hundreds of boxes are needed,Such a huge amount,It's very troublesome to get it。

And even if you get a few hundred boxes, at most you will eat for a month or two, which is not worth it.

They also want to be more convenient, but also want to live a more comfortable life, in the case of traffic can not support the situation, according to local conditions may not be a good choice.

When he heard those words, Chen Ming was full of emotion, this old saying is really true, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, the road is not smooth, everything is in vain.

Think about yourself when you go out for exercises in the barracks, basically you haven't touched compressed biscuits much, and the self-heating pan will only be eaten when there are no conditions.

Most of the time, I would coordinate the Blues' kitchen, and I really didn't expect that I would have a day when I couldn't eat compressed biscuits.

Patrols continued.

A group of figures in the vast snow-capped mountains set off again, this work is undoubtedly very boring, everywhere you see is the same scenery, the same terrain.

One foot deep, one foot shallow step forward.

The cold wind rolled up the snowflakes, hitting the face like a knife cut, and the thick cotton clothes and cotton hats were useless and could not stop the cold wind from eroding.

Chen Ming followed the team to the border line, and followed the squad leader to patch the barbed wire little by little with pliers, and there are also fierce beasts on the snowy mountains, such as Taer sheep and snow leopards, which often use brute force to hit the barbed wire.

They are responsible for ramming, and fighters are responsible for making up.

On the border line, Chen Ming saw the white elephant military camp not far away, and several white elephant soldiers grinned and wanted to find fault, but when the platoon commander Cao Fei showed the stick in his hand mercilessly, they retreated.

Zhao Haojie told Chen Ming,It's not the first time these guys have been like this,Border guards can't easily move guns,Skirmishes are all sticks,The platoon commander is very famous in this area,Once one person overturned three white elephants。

With him, these people don't dare to be too public, there are cameras on the cliff overhead, and once they do it, the border guard regiment and other patrols will immediately receive the news and rush to this side to help.

We don't cause trouble, but we are definitely not afraid of things, and if we dare to cross the line, we will beat these white elephant cubs.

Chen Ming also clenched and loosened his fists when he saw it, seeing the other party go away, he was disappointed and happy, he really couldn't bear to be injured by the platoon commander again.

After all, peace is what the people desire most.

During the patrol, Chen Ming came to the boundary monument, and the squad elder Xiong gave him the task, picked up a brush dipped in red paint, and traced the font on the boundary monument.

One stroke at a time, especially serious.

The red on the boundary monument of the motherland has the same root and origin as the red on the national flag, and the town is on the border, highlighting the glorious national prestige of the great country.

No sloppiness.

The patrol departed at five o'clock in the morning, and by the time they returned to their station, it was already past twelve o'clock in the evening.

The soldiers of the second and third platoons of the second frontier company, as before, all gathered at the gate of the station, looking out at the road from which they came, waiting for the returning brothers on patrol.

It wasn't until I saw them that the waiting fighters dispersed, representing that there were no accidents on patrol today.

This may be the best news for the Second Frontier Company.

And Chen Ming and them, after walking for a day, they couldn't help but be a little sluggish, but fortunately, there were no special circumstances, when they came back, the first and third classes were already waiting at the door of the equipment warehouse.

Platoon Commander Cao Fei opened the door of the equipment depot, counted all the guns, bullets, and quantities, and placed them separately in different equipment depots before arranging for disbandment.

At this time, if you want to eat, you can go to the cafeteria to eat, there is warm white rice porridge, if you don't want to go to eat, you can go back to the dormitory, and you don't force it.

Chen Ming handed over his guns and bullets, patted his hard calves, and looked helpless, this has been walking in the snow for a day, and his feet and calves have long been unconscious.

If you don't walk all the time, you're afraid you can freeze there.

Squad leader Xiong Jiuchang briefly checked the other soldiers in the squad, and came to Chen Ming with a smile and asked, "How did you feel on the first day of patrol?" ”

Hearing this, the corners of Chen Ming's mouth couldn't help twitching, at this time he only had one feeling, he was physically and mentally exhausted.

And the fatigue on his body is okay, his physical fitness is good, and the main thing that tortures people is mental damage.

When patrolling on the road, the cold wind was like a knife on the face, and now when I come back, the wind is blocked by the building a lot, and the snow does not need to be stepped on anymore.

But the two feet and calves are hot, and they are accompanied by unbearable itching, as if there are countless little ants constantly biting.

That energy, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.

The squad leader Xiong Jiuchang saw Chen Ming's helpless expression and couldn't help but laugh.

"Let's go, go to the back of the cafeteria and soak your feet, find Xiao Zhao's kid to get some alcohol, or rub the high liquor on his legs vigorously, there's nothing wrong with it."

"Young lad, this is not bitterness."

The squad leader patted Chen Ming on the shoulder, quite satisfied with his performance today.

For example, some of the soldiers who were transferred before were not as patient as Chen Ming, and some even complained from the beginning of the patrol until the end.

After all, the patrol is a long and difficult road, starting at five o'clock in the morning and returning at twelve o'clock in the evening, with few opportunities to rest along the way.

It's normal to not be able to stay up.

But today, he didn't see Chen Ming complain, and even took the initiative to undertake some tasks several times, which was rare during the first patrol.

Facing the squad leader's concern, Chen Ming smiled bitterly and nodded lightly, no wonder the Second Frontier Company arranged to patrol once a week, dispatching one platoon at a time.

In other words, there will be two days at most in a month, or even only once a month, and at first he felt that the interval would not be too long.

Now I know from my own experience that it will not be long before the number of patrols is too frequent, and it is easy for the soldiers to be left with dark diseases.

Especially on the legs.

While the other soldiers were going to eat in the cafeteria, Chen Ming returned to the squad, put away the thick coat, and took his basin and went straight to the back of the canteen.

Every time they patrolled, the brothers in the cooking class would boil some hot water on the stove to provide the brothers who came back with water to burn their feet and take a bath.

Everyone else is used to staying here, and the first thing to do when they come back is to fill their stomachs, so that there is warm food in their stomachs, which is far more practical than soaking their feet.

But Chen Ming has been here for half a month, and he still can't get used to white rice porridge with pickles, that thing is okay for him to eat or not, and it's good to soak his feet.

After soaking and returning to the dormitory, Chen Ming asked the medical soldier Zhao Haojie for some high-grade liquor, and sat cross-legged on the bed and rubbed vigorously.

It is said that these high-grade liquors were all brought by him when he took advantage of the cooking class to go down the mountain to the county seat to purchase, as long as he brought it back, he would quickly open it and stuff some shoelaces and soot into it.

After all, it is the army, and the first thing to show is that this thing is not for drinking.

Of course, the biggest reason is to use it to "prevent thieves".

If you don't stuff something into it and put it in your cabinet, it will take two or three days at most, and all the animals will be stolen and drunk.

These are all Zhao Haojie's experiences,According to him,When I first came to the second border company,There is no such awareness,Special affairs,The company commander will not manage it too strictly。

At that time, he asked the cooking class to help purchase some drinks and came back, and he often lost them, and later caught the squad leader stealing the most, so he made this decision.

Chen Ming couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this.

This may also be their second class, a few interesting things.

It was almost one o'clock in the morning when everyone was done, and after a long day's journey, everyone was tired and fell asleep quickly.

After the night, the wake-up whistle sounded, and the days returned to normal.

In the morning, they climbed to the top of the mountain with the sun and glanced at the peaks of the mountains, where the patrol passed yesterday.

After taking another look at the scenery, in the whistle of the platoon leader, everyone rushed down the hillside, and the next thing was to eat breakfast, give half an hour to tidy up housekeeping, move the flowers out to bask in the sun, wipe the flagpole, and wipe the flag-raising platform.

That's all there is to it, monotonous, boring, and lonely.

Chen Ming also completely integrated into the Second Frontier Company, understood their obsession with the flag-raising platform, and also agreed with their care for fake flowers.

And he himself became one of them.

When it's okay,Just pull the medical soldier in the class Zhao Haojie to chat,This kid is the nanny in the class.,Or a doctor.,Know more。

After a recent understanding, Chen Ming found that this kid not only has medical skills, but even he has a medical qualification certificate, not only a local qualification certificate, but even a border health worker qualification certificate.

After eating at noon, the two sat on the big stone in the sheltered place at the entrance of the company, Chen Ming couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "With your ability, it should be no problem to retire and become a doctor, right?" ”

"Even if it doesn't matter if the family doesn't matter, and the work of the hospital is not easy to arrange, then you have a medical qualification certificate and open a small clinic, and there is nothing wrong with your medical qualification certificate."

Chen Ming is indeed very puzzled, although he does not understand medical skills and is not a doctor, but he was in the system before, and he knew at least some friends from tertiary hospitals.

There are many tertiary hospitals that have opened traditional Chinese medicine clinics,Zhao Haojie, this kid is a soldier in the second border company,It's the nanny in the class,Superb medical skills,Easy-going。

If you want to be a doctor, you will definitely be a good doctor with integrity.

Isn't that more fragrant than suffering as a soldier?

Listening to Chen Ming's persuasion, Zhao Haojie smiled and touched the third-phase epaulette on his shoulder, he has served in the border regiment for ten years.

The seniority is older than the squad leader.

Touching his epaulette and carefully sorting out his military uniform, he smiled and said: "I can't go, if I leave, what if you get injured while patrolling?" ”

"I had a conflict with those white elephant rabbit cubs and got hurt, what should I do?"

"How can the health officer of the border guard regiment be so fast as me, you are injured one by one, I am here, you can rest assured, I am also at ease, you kid will steal the fun, and dare to persuade me to go?"

Zhao Haojie said it very easily,His eyes are also full of pride,They all said that border guards have their own stories,Of course,He also has。

When he first got out of the company as a recruit, he was young and high-spirited, and he enlisted in the army and was determined to serve the country, but he didn't expect to be assigned to the frontier, and the conditions ten years ago were much more difficult than now.

The harsh environment and the daily life of not having enough food to eat have worn off his edges and corners, and also made the spirit of enlisting in the army at that time high-spirited, accompanied by the cold wind, blown away little by little.

I couldn't stand it just a few days after I arrived, thinking that he would slip away after two years of retirement, he didn't know anyone, and he couldn't be transferred.

At that time, the idea was that the king of heaven would not be able to keep him when he came.

However, in the past two years, the traditional Chinese medicine skills he learned from the elders in the mountains since he was a child have played a big role, and he has gradually been lost in the sincere thanks of his comrades.

The desire to leave the army was not so strong when it was time to leave after two years.

Later, many comrades-in-arms were rescued by him, and many times, looking at the young faces, they came to the border guards one after another, dedicating their youth, and could not be rescued in time because of a disability.

He couldn't bear to leave a shadow for the rest of his life, so he continued to stay, until now, and he didn't want to leave.

It's easy for the border guards to stay in the team, if you want, and it's not impossible for a medical soldier like him, who has the best medical skills in the company, to be promoted to the fourth term, or even stay here all the time to become a sergeant major of the first class.

At first, Zhao Haojie was also imitating,Also confused,I don't know whether to go back or continue to stay here。

Later he figured it out.

There are doctors out there, but he's the only one here.

It's clear where he is needed more.

Thinking,Zhao Haojie was very proud to take out a bag of ointment made by himself from the pocket of his clothes,According to him, these ointments are particularly effective in treating frostbite。

He even showed Chen Ming the strange-shaped pill he had boiled, the size of a baby's fist.

According to him, this thing is not meant to be eaten, and it is often carried on the body to relieve the feeling of suffocation brought by the plateau.

He planned to get more when he went down the mountain to buy supplies next time, and then get some sachets, and distribute a little bit of the medicine he had boiled to each of the soldiers in the company.

Maybe these things don't help much, but it's also a little bit of his heart.

Chen Ming sat next to him and listened quietly,I can't tell what mood I have,Just looked at Zhao Haojie silently,Show your masterpiece little by little。

It is said that he paid for many things out of his own pocket, and bought them in Yamashita County while he was purchasing, and studied them slowly.

A very ordinary person, even ordinary to the point of being embarrassed, will not be noticed by people at second sight.

But he silently dedicated himself to the border guards, especially his sentence: "I'm leaving, what should you do?" ”

It was even more sour to hear Chen Ming's heart.

It seems that the propaganda work of the army is still not in place,A soldier like Zhao Haojie,The army should vigorously publicize,Let more people know his deeds。

He should not be unknown.

Of course, it is not excluded that people do not like to be interviewed, and it may be only in this training and quiet time that he likes to show off his research results with his close comrades.

This is the nanny who thinks about others everywhere in their second class, a great and ordinary veteran.

The break is over.

Today's training was about ramming, and I spent the whole day batting.

When it was night, Rao is Chen Ming's legs felt a little unbearable, and the wind was strong on the mountain, and the altitude was too high.

The clothes on the body were wet and dry with sweat, and when they were dry and wet, they were not to mention how uncomfortable they were to wear.

After the end of the training session.

didn't wait for everyone to eat,Medical soldier Zhao Haojie didn't know where to get an iron can,Take out black pills in it。

It is said that it can prevent colds and fevers from being eaten by the fortress.

Although the "martial arts master" Li Yan scolded and scolded, the speed at which he took it over was quite fast, and the squad leader Xiong Jiuchang even felt that he was not enough after eating one, and he stretched out his head and wanted to ask for two more.

Chen Ming took it silently, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed the taste, very bitter, very bitter

Coming to the border, I spent every day like this.

Soon more than half a month passed.

Recently, the Second Frontier Company ushered in a big festival, to be precise, not only them, but the people of the whole country ushered in a big festival.

National Birthday.

On the morning of September 30th.

As soon as the whole company gathered, all the soldiers raised their heads and looked at the company commander Wu Xueliang hopefully.

I can't help it, I'm gluttonous.

Every day, the white porridge and pickles fade out of the birds, and only by taking advantage of this kind of big festival can they feast on their mouths.

Company commander Wu Xueliang looked at the soldiers, his eyes lit up one by one, he deliberately pretended to be puzzled, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Want to rest? No way, today's task is still to rush the slope. ”

"Don't even think about it."

"Report."

"Speak."

"Report to the company commander, tomorrow is the birthday of the country, shouldn't you go down to purchase today?"

"Report, I've run out of shampoo, and I've been rubbing the squad leader for half a month."

"Report, our snowy mountain is coming soon, I want to go down and buy some thick clothes."

"Report."

~~~~~~

Seeing that there were people in the team constantly reporting, the company commander Wu Xueliang smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, don't be poor."

"If you want to improve your life, just say, what shampoo is it, the snow covers the mountains, that is a row of two shifts, this time you will follow the cooking class."

"There are new comrades in your class coming over, take this opportunity to go down the mountain for a stroll, and set off after breakfast."

"But in the future, tomorrow's birthday is to improve my life, but if anyone trains me to drop the chain today, then don't blame me for arranging you to be on duty for ten shifts tomorrow, so that you can't smell a single oil."

"Did you hear that?"

"Yes, company commander!!"
