Chapter 1630 Finally Arrived
After a week of long-distance march, Zhu Pingan and his newly recruited Yiwu recruits finally arrived near Taohuaji before sunset.
As the sun sets in the west, under the red glow, a spectacular, solemn, strict and orderly camp appears in the sight of the Yiwu recruits from a distance.
“We’re here, we’re finally here.”
The recruits saw the Taohuaji Campus Camp from a distance, and they all shouted excitedly.
After more than a week of long-distance marching, we can finally rest.
“Look, the seniors are waiting for us.”
After approaching, the Yiwu recruits discovered the veterans of the Zhejiang Army waiting in order outside the gate of the camp.
Zhu Pingan sent someone to rush to Taohuaji Campus yesterday to inform the recruits of their arrival, and ordered the camp to prepare for the welcome, food, clothing, housing and transportation.
So, today the veterans lined up outside the camp gate early to wait for the new recruits.
The veterans were in neat uniforms and in neat formations. After months of training, they had a military power that looked intimidating.
Looking at the messy uniforms on their bodies, and the fact that they looked neat and tidy before, but now they looked like a rabble, the recruits in Yiwu couldn't help but feel ashamed of themselves.
"Welcome the new brothers of the Zhejiang Army."
While the new recruits of the Zhejiang Army were feeling ashamed, the veterans of the Zhejiang Army suddenly applauded warmly and welcomed them.
Listening to the warm welcome, the shame on the faces of the Yiwu recruits was replaced by flattery, and they couldn't help but feel warm in their hearts.
What’s even warmer is that not only are the veterans giving a warm welcome, but after entering the camp, there are also steaming pots of pork, white pine, winter melon meatballs, and baskets of hot steamed buns as high as hills. , and buckets of West Lake Beef Kwai warmly welcomed them.
After more than a week of long-distance marching, the volunteer recruits were tired, thirsty and hungry. As soon as they entered the Zhejiang Army camp, they had such a hearty hot meal beyond their imagination. It not only warmed their stomachs, but also It warms my heart.
As a result, the Yiwu recruits' sense of belonging to the Zhejiang Army greatly increased the moment they entered the camp.
At this moment, many people suddenly felt a sigh of relief: I am lucky enough to join the Zhejiang Army in this life, and I will still be a Zhejiang Army in the next life.
“Not much nonsense, they are old people and you are newcomers, but we are all a Zhejiang Army family. Eat first, then arrange the camp, then have a good night’s sleep, and we will talk about the rest tomorrow. Now, let’s have dinner ! ”
After Zhu Ping'an led the Yiwu recruits into the camp, he didn't say much nonsense, waved his hand, and directly ordered the meal to be served.
"Your Excellency is wise, let's start dinner"
"Thank you, Your Excellency."
A group of Yiwu recruits thought that Your Excellency was going to give a long speech, but they didn't expect that Your Excellency directly ordered that dinner be served. , all of them suddenly grinned excitedly from ear to ear, shouting repeatedly that you are wise.
"Old brothers, let's not be in a hurry, let the new brothers eat first." The veterans of the Zhejiang Army took the initiative to show their style and let the Yiwu recruits eat first.
"Come on, come on, new brothers, don't worry, there is enough food for everyone, please line up to get it."
"Hehe, we are not bragging, our Zhejiang Army is the big pot of food. This place is a must-have within a hundred miles, with large slices of pork, meat-filled croquettes, and tofu filled with gravy. The slices, as well as the fragrant and soothing white rice, take one bite and your mouth will be full of oil. It is simply the most delicious food in the world."
The gang leaders waved their big spoons and greeted the Yiwu recruits warmly. My hands didn't shake at all when picking up the dishes, and they were incredibly steady. The big spoon picked out the meaty parts and scooped up a full portion. Each Yiwu recruit received a large bowl full of cauldron dishes. There were countless bright and thick meat slices, not to mention meatballs. The bowl was so packed that there was almost no room for tofu and cabbage. .
Everyone also received three large steamed buns and a large bowl of West Lake beef soup, which was enough. The gang leader also told them from time to time that there were many steamed buns, so they should eat freely and come and get them when they were done. Make sure you have enough.
"Hey, hey, new brothers, you have to be careful when eating," a veteran laughed and said to the new recruits.
ah? !
The recruits holding the bowls couldn't help but be startled. They lowered their heads to look at the bowls. Is there sand in the bowls, or is the food unclean?
Why else should we be careful when eating? !
“Hahaha, it’s because the big pot of food cooked by our Zhejiang Army is so fragrant, and I’m worried that you might accidentally swallow it, so I asked you to be careful when eating, hahaha”
Seeing this, the veteran laughed proudly.
The new recruits looked at the veterans dumbfounded
"You idiot, Hu Laoqi still has the energy to tease the new recruits. It seems that the amount of training in the morning was not enough. Now, immediately, go and surround me with everyone. The battalion has to run three laps. If you can’t finish the race, you want to eat.”
The sentry commander went up and kicked Hu Laoqi, who was teasing the new recruits. He cursed, pointed outside, and shouted an order.
“Huh? Three rounds?” Hu Laoqi begged for mercy from the whistle commander with a playful smile, as if he were mourning for his heir, “Commander, you must have farted on me.”.
"That's too little, right? OK, run four laps for me now!" the whistle commander said with a dark face and a bull's eye.
"No, no, no, no. Grandpa, please have mercy on me. Just three laps. Four laps will be too much for you."
Hu Laoqi was frightened when he heard that one more lap was added. His face turned pale, and he repeatedly clasped his fists and begged for mercy.
“Five rounds now.” The whistle commander said with a black face.
"I'll run, can't I run?" Hu Laoqi didn't dare to beep anymore, got up and started running.
"Hahaha, Hu Laoqi, it's useless for you to call the captain grandpa, you have to call your ancestor"
"You deserve it, Hu Laoqi. Who told you to do nothing all day long? Are you satisfied now?"
When a group of veterans saw Hu Laoqi running around with his butt stuck out, they whistled and laughed and cursed. got up.
The recruits couldn't help but laugh too. Amidst the laughter, the feeling of leaving home suddenly disappeared.
“It’s time to eat, it’s time to eat.”
“Well, the big brother is right, this big pot of food is so fragrant, so fragrant that I almost swallowed my tongue.”
"The big steamed buns fresh out of the pot are also very fragrant, juicy and soft. When dipped in the soup of the big pot of vegetables, they are so fragrant that I want to call you mother."
"Hey, it's been more than half a year, and I finally eat them again. The meat is here, it’s so fragrant.”
The Yiwu recruits devoured the big pot of food and felt that joining the Zhejiang Army was the wisest choice they had ever made in their lives.
They have not had such a delicious meal in Yiwu for many years. Even the New Year’s Eve dinner is not as good as this meal. Yiwu is a land with few mountains and many mountains, and there is simply not enough land for food. Although there are mines, they are all very thin, and they have to fight for the mines for many years. Most of the year is spent fighting and fighting for the mines. Life is hard.
