Chapter 193 The end of military training
"Zhou Jidong, are you okay? Why don't you let Lao Liu carry your backpack for you? He is just a mule."
The boss is still the boss, take the initiative to care Zhou Jidong is the weakest person in the class.
"Deputy squad leader, there is nothing wrong with you caring about your comrades, but why are you asking me to carry it instead of you?"
"Who in the company doesn't know that you are just a beast? A few days ago I also went to take a bath in the ravine. Come and put it on your back.”
The mountains and plains are covered with yellow leaves and a small amount of red. With the rising sun, it looks quite beautiful from a distance.
Looking down when I walked in, a few drops of dew looked crystal clear in the sunlight, rolling around on the yellow leaves.
At noon, the team stopped. In fact, the progress was not very fast, but more and more people were falling behind. Zhu Xuefeng had one on his chest, two on his back, and was carrying three backpacks.
Now everyone is stationed beside a small stream at the foot of the mountain. Now we can see the full view of the massive march. More than a thousand people are stationed in this small area, bustling with people.
The hills on both sides are not too high, less than 300 meters high, but they are all small roads. Next to the small roads are small trees and thorns more than one meter high. It is really difficult when there are many people. Walk.
The cooking team came out of nowhere, even carrying big pots. Looking at the trucks in the distance, they probably took the main road and were waiting here.
The current task is to bury pots for cooking. Some people are digging holes, some are collecting firewood, and some are washing rice and cutting vegetables. The cooking class is not available now, and it is all up to the students to make their own arrangements.
There is definitely not enough firewood. Even the weeds are almost gone. The cooking team has to go to the truck to get some firewood. Otherwise, there is really no way to start the fire. With so many people crowded together, there is no place to fire. firewood.
There are not many things to pay attention to at this time. Everyone can endure hardships. They eat porridge made from the stream, take a bite of pickles, nibble a few mouthfuls of steamed buns, and start singing again. This time the movement is even louder. What, the female soldier company is here too.
Several female soldiers from the nearby companies were fighting like crazy, roaring wildly in the valley as if they had taken the wrong medicine. Every burst of cute laughter from the female soldiers led to another crazy fight, and there was still another wave of crazy fights. Playing songs and shouting songs didn't make so much noise.
The distant companies slowly ceased their activities and quietly watched the excitement, a bit like watching monkeys playing, but it was quite enjoyable.
The messy scene was simply cleaned up and handed over to the cooking squad. The company hurriedly set off on the road. A notice came from above, saying that there might be light rain in the afternoon, and the team had to run forward.
The weather in this mountainous area also changes too quickly. One moment it was bright and sunny, and then a few clouds drifted into the valley, and as expected it started to rain lightly.
The team dispersed as they ran. It was no longer clear which company it was, and the flags were no longer visible. All we could see were students trotting all over the mountains and plains.
The light rain was falling in a turbulent manner. It was not heavy, but it soaked my body and let the small wind from the mountainous area blow, which made me feel extremely cool.
"Everyone, run faster, otherwise the quilt will be wet in a while, and you will suffer tonight."
Class leader Tian Yu reminded loudly, and the whole class also speeded up. Class 8 ran a The meeting also broke up, and in the end only four people were still together, with Fang Jiaming, Zhang Yong and Chen Zhihe still following.
I don’t know which company this is running into. There is no familiar face around. After asking, I found out that this is the team that ran away from the Ninth Company. The Ninth Company has also dispersed. Now there are forty Many people are still together, and others have disappeared.
"Sixth Brother, are we running too fast? Do you want to wait for the next one?"
"There is not even a shelter from the rain in this barren mountain. How can we wait? Standing in the rain and waiting stupidly."
Zhang Yong put up a canopy in front of him with one hand and expressed his objection at first. Chen Zhihe also had the same opinion. Zhu Xuefeng looked back at the teams all over the mountains and plains. He was not looking for it at all. Less than twelve company flags.
"We can't wait. Let's go back to the camp first. Otherwise, the quilt will be soaked. We can keep our bodies to continue fighting. Let's go."
There is no other way, just pack tightly and just I can run with the front, but I can’t figure out the direction. It’s all chaos. Fortunately, everyone is stationed in the same area, so I can always go back if I follow the team in front.
The team is getting wider and wider, and the gap in physical strength between everyone is still relatively large. From the bustling crowd to the sparse crowd now.
Occasionally passing by a small mountain village, the confused villagers thought there was some emergency event, but there was an organized delivery of water and eggs at the head of the village. The students were too embarrassed to take them, so they waved their hands and ran away.
The villagers started to pull at him, and many of them drank hot water before they could escape. It wasn't until the soldiers came forward to explain that the villagers stopped pulling, but they still stood in the rain to see him off. Fortunately, there were soldiers guiding the way at every fork in the road. I don’t know how long I ran. When I arrived at the camp, no one from the company had returned. This was because I had run to the front.
Instructor Zhao was waiting at the entrance of the camp. When he saw the four people, he laughed and cursed.
"Abandoning your helmets and stragglers, you are the fastest deserters. A light rain will reveal your true colors!"
"You are from Class 8, right? Go to the dormitory first. Put down your backpack and quickly go to the cafeteria to drink some ginger soup to ward off the cold. "
The army leader did not criticize the four for leaving the team. The four quickly returned to the dormitory, dried themselves and changed their clothes.
Drinking some warm ginger soup again, my cold body finally felt better. I took my wet training clothes and dried them in the cafeteria before putting them on.
More than an hour later, the last one finally came back, and the entire company completed the mission. It was really a defeat, and all the high spirits when setting off in the early morning were gone.
All the activities in the evening were cancelled. Zhu Xuefeng and the other four came back early. The quilt was okay, and it could still be used after barely turning it over. Zhu Xuefeng’s quilt was at the bottom, except for the area against his back which was slightly soaked with sweat. , which is no problem.
For those who came back late, their quilts were so wet that some water could even be squeezed out. This was impossible to cover them with. The army did not have rich quilts.
"Whose quilt is soaked, take mine."
Tian Yu, the squad leader, gave up his quilt, but in this ravine night, it was impossible to sleep without a quilt.
"Don't worry about me, I have a way to solve it."
After Squad Leader Tian made arrangements for everyone, he disappeared. Maybe he squeezed into the same bed with someone, some people speculated.
Zhu Xuefeng also gave up the quilt. At most, he could stay up all night, no problem.
Fortunately, the cooking class organized a quilt baking after dinner, and several people from each class took turns to be on duty, which barely solved the problem of sleeping.
…
On the last day of the concentrated report, unfortunately it started to rain again. This year has been a drought. This rain all fell in late autumn and early winter. Many students watched Rain screams pity.
Looking at the rain-soaked school leaders and army officers on the rostrum, the students were very high-spirited. After a month of hard work, they all changed and they started to feel like soldiers.
At this moment, all the hard work in the past month was worth it. All the recruits lined up in neat formations in a happy mood and performed the one-month training program, which was well received by the school leaders and To the unanimous praise of the military chiefs, the team was brought back in the rain.
Ginger soup has been prepared in the cafeteria. The warm ginger soup goes down into your stomach. The coldness is dispelled bit by bit, and the training clothes on your body are dried bit by bit by the body temperature.
…
When we returned from the military training, everyone was silent. Everyone felt too tired during the training, but they were reluctant to leave when they really wanted to leave.
After all, it was a place where a month of sweat had been shed. The usually stern instructors became kinder in their hearts, and they all exchanged a few words with the instructors.
"Squad leader, this is our message and contact information. Please contact us when you have time."
"Goodbye!"
I guess no one likes to watch a month of military training. After leaving the foreshadowing, I simply walked through it and started switching back to the map tomorrow.
