More than ten hours later, Jiang Fan finally followed the team and returned to school. The school has already received their performance report from the West Point Military Academy Exchange Week.
It can be said that this time, Jiang Fan and others gave the Chinese Military Academy a hard time! At the school gate, all the school leaders personally received them.
"Not bad!"
"In this expedition, you have given us Chinese soldiers face!" The principal laughed at Jiang Fan and the others with a smile on his face.
Then his eyes fell on Jiang Fan: "Especially Comrade Jiang Fan, your performance really exceeded our expectations!"
"I originally thought that as a freshman, you wouldn't be able to adapt to such international activities."
"I didn't expect that not only did you overcome it, but you also led other members of our school to achieve such good results! Hahaha..." Jiang Fan smiled modestly and said, "This is the result of our cooperation. If it weren't for the seniors, Work hard, it’s hard for me to compete with warriors from other countries!” The principal smiled and nodded.
“Others did really well too, that’s for sure!”
"Anyway, this time, you returned in triumph and made a lot of money for the Chinese soldiers and the school. The reward will definitely be indispensable!"
"You are also tired during this period. Go back and relax for two days before training and resting normally!"
"Yes!" Jiang Fan, Sun Yong and others saluted and responded loudly. After the school leaders left, Jiang Fan exchanged a few words with Sun Yong and then headed towards the squadron.
But when he returned to the squadron, few people noticed him. There are even many unfamiliar faces.
"Did I go to the wrong place?" Jiang Fan looked confused. He looked up at the large characters above "Squadron".
That's right, it's the Eighth Squadron!
"Comrade, who are you looking for?" At this time, the student on duty came up and asked Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan looked at the attendant.
Is this a senior? Jiang Fan, who had been a soldier for so many years in his previous life, could still tell the difference between veterans and new recruits.
The military ranks of the cadets in the military academy are directly aligned with each other. From freshman to senior, there is no difference in military rank.
Only teachers, professors, and leaders have it. Therefore, even when walking on the road, you can't tell who is older.
But veterans who have been in the army for a longer time can tell it at a glance from the other party's words and deeds. For example, most new recruits are somewhat restrained at any time.
As for the veterans, after they have adapted to the rules of the army and become familiar with the teachers and leaders, they will be a little slippery and relax when they can.
Especially within the squadron. Although the person on duty in front of him was well-dressed, Jiang Fan could tell at a glance that he was a veteran.
Jiang Fan saluted: "Hello, senior! Excuse me, is this the Eighth Squadron?" The attendant nodded, glanced at Jiang Fan's luggage bag, frowned slightly and said, "Of course this is the Eighth Squadron, are you a freshman? On vacation?"
"That's not right. Freshmen can't take vacations, and it's not time for vacations. Who are you?" Jiang Fan said: "I'm from the Eighth Squadron. I just returned from participating in military activities abroad. My name is..." Jiang Fan said Before he could finish, the duty officer interrupted him excitedly and said, "You are Jiang Fan! The freshman who has just finished his training and will be able to enter the seed club and then represent our school to participate in the annual International Military Cadet Exchange Meeting. ?" Jiang Fan didn't expect that he was so famous.
Even veterans know their names. He smiled sheepishly and said, "It's me." The attendant smiled and said, "I've always only heard about your awesome deeds, but now I finally see a living person." Jiang Fan: "..."
"Duty officer, if you don't do your duty well, why are you so surprised?" At this time, a stern shout came.
I saw a major coming over. When he saw Jiang Fan, he was obviously stunned.
"Jiang Fan, are you back?" Jiang Fan immediately stood at attention and saluted and shouted: "Hello, squadron leader! I'm back!" The person who came was none other than squadron leader Wu Haitao.
Wu Haitao quickly walked up to Jiang Fan in three steps and two steps, reached out and grabbed Jiang Fan's shoulder, and said happily: "Not bad, not bad, I am much stronger than before I went there!"
"This time I went to West Point Military Academy for an exchange. How were my results? Didn't we embarrass our Chinese soldiers?" Jiang Fan said: "Not bad!" Wu Haitao laughed and scolded: "Your kid's performance is not bad, just very good! Hahaha..." Jiang Fan said Fan said curiously: "Squadron Captain, this is our No. 8 Squadron? Why are there so many seniors? I don't see any freshmen?" Wu Haitao said: "Come to the room with me, and I will tell you in detail. By the way, you can also Please report to me about the exchange week." After saying that, he directly took Jiang Fan's luggage and threw it to the attendant.
"Take it to the third shift!" The attendant looked aggrieved. What does it sound like for a senior to give a salute to a new student?
Wu Haitao took Jiang Fan directly to the office. Wu Haitao asked Jiang Fan to sit down, and then said directly: "The nature of the school and the army are similar."
"After the new training is over, recruits and veterans usually live and train together. Of course, the courses they learn are just different."
"The first three and five days of the school are cultural classes, and the second and fourth days are training days. The new recruits and veterans are separated and go to class separately. Of course, morning exercises and evening physical training are necessary every day."
"And Saturday and Sunday are normal breaks in addition to normal elective classes."
"Originally, this was supposed to be assigned after your new training, but the sophomores at that time were training in the field. They didn't come back until you went to West Point." Jiang Fan suddenly realized.
He actually thinks this model is quite good. In terms of training, if there are veterans to guide and control, the progress will be obvious.
Veterans have enough experience and can teach new recruits many things. Jiang Fan asked: "That means that the new students in our Eighth Squadron have also been separated." Wu Haitao nodded: "Of course they will be separated."
"What about my squad leader Su He and squad deputy Zhao Dong?" Wu Haitao: "Your squad leader has left the army, and the squad deputy is a senior. He will also serve as squad leader in school for one year." Jiang Fan couldn't help but feel a little sad when he heard this.
"Then we are living and training with senior veterans?" Jiang Fan asked curiously.
"Of course it's the sophomore year." Wu Haitao said: "The seniors will be the squad president, the juniors will be the deputy squad leaders, and the sophomores will naturally be the veterans. They change every year. When you are sophomores, you will also go to other squadrons to serve the freshmen. Become a veteran." Seeing Jiang Fan's unwillingness to give up, Wu Haitao comforted him: "The so-called iron camp, flowing soldiers! You will slowly adapt to it in the future!"
"At least here, I am still the squadron leader of the Eighth Squadron! Haha!" After that, Wu Haitao also asked about the exchange and study situation, and then asked Jiang Fan to go back and pack his things.
Wu Haitao said that he would still stay in class three. As for where the class vice-presidents Zhao Dong, Li Hao and Lin Tao were assigned.
Jiang Fan didn't ask. After asking around a bit later, I found out everything. He went directly back to the dormitory and packed his things.
At this time, there was no one in the third class dormitory. The veterans came back from class and went out to train on their own.
The freshmen haven't returned from class yet.
"Your bed is the lower bunk on the right." The attendant came over and said to Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan nodded,
"I know, I used to sleep in this bed. Thank you, veteran." Jiang Fan said, his eyes involuntarily glanced at his upper bunk.
His upper bunk was previously slept by squad leader Su He. Although he also experienced separation from his comrades in his previous life.
But maybe I have experienced it before, so I don’t want to experience that feeling of separation. Of course, this is what the squadron leader said.
The army is like this, a solid camp and flowing soldiers. Later, they will all go their separate ways and be assigned to various units to serve as commanders.
The attendant asked curiously: "Jiang Fan, I'm curious, when did you start training? You were spotted by the seed club just after the new training, and you were able to pass their perverted assessments?" Jiang Fan said calmly: "Of course the training starts from the time of enrollment." The attendant looked curious: "How to practice?" Jiang Fan glanced at him,
"Just talk less, sleep less, and train more." The attendant: "..." Because he had to be on duty, the attendant did not dare to stay in the dormitory longer. After chatting with Jiang Fan for a few words, he went out.
Jiang Fan didn't have much to pack and had nothing to do in his spare time, so he simply put on his training clothes and went to the training ground.
