"I won't be fooled by you!"
After persisting for a full twenty seconds, Zhang Jian chose to give up.
"I don't know the same as you!"
Finally, he added something, and then shook his head angrily and left the terraced house.
Li Zheng originally planned that if he was held accountable for the crayfish incident, he would take the initiative to stand up and be punished together with Fatty Wei.
After all, you have a share when you can't eat, and you get away when you're punished.
This is not the way to be a friend.
Several recruits who had eaten crayfish sat anxiously in the row room waiting for the final "punishment" to arrive, but unfortunately they didn't get anything in the end.
Deputy Commander Zhang stayed at the Second Battalion headquarters for about forty minutes before leaving. Everything was calm and the expected "punishment" did not come.
The afternoon was the end of the National Day holiday, and Hou Jun did not organize any training. He just asked the monitors of each class to practice folding quilts in the row room.
At about four o'clock, the battalion commander Liang Hu summoned the entire battalion of recruits for a brief lecture. The general idea was that each company must ensure food security and not let the recruits go hungry. The food must be good and rich and varied. However, The food in the army is like this. It cannot be too luxurious. If you have to compare it with the food at home, there is no comparison at all.
After the disbandment, Fatty Wei felt like he was dreaming.
I thought I would be punished, but didn't expect it to pass so easily?
The crayfish incident did not cause any big waves. After the National Day, training continued, but with increasing intensity.
The contest between Li Zheng and Zhang Jian continues.
In terms of foundation, Zhang Jian is definitely better than Li Zheng.
But everything is afraid of seriousness.
Once people are serious, they will burst out with unexpected power. For Zhang Jian, Li Zheng has completely given up his illusions about him.
If he insists on competing with himself and being his opponent, then he might as well be a qualified opponent and don't let him down.
Apart from the first time when he ran five kilometers and crossed the finish line side by side with Zhang Jian, Zhang Jian never ran such a good result in the subsequent five kilometers and three kilometers of cross-country. He was beaten by Zhang Jian every time. Throw it down at least a hundred meters.
This is strange to say. No matter how hard Li Zheng tried, he just couldn't do it as fast as the first time.
reason?
He thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. After much deliberation, he finally attributed the reason to Zhang Jian giving him the middle finger.
After that beating, Zhang Jian never raised his middle finger to him.
Giving someone the middle finger is an insulting gesture. Li Zheng felt that the reason for his extraordinary performance that time was because he was stimulated by Zhang Jian.
It's a pity that Zhang Jian also saw that he couldn't provoke Li Zheng, or thought that raising the middle finger once was enough. After that, he really didn't provoke Li Zheng during the five-kilometer or three-kilometer cross-country.
After the National Day, the first morning of resuming training got off to a good start with a five-kilometer run.
Hou Jun stood in front of the team, holding a stopwatch and shouting at the recruits in the tone of a veteran, half teasing and half encouraging: "Five kilometers requires long-term persistence to achieve the best results. Don't think that the new recruits can do it now." I felt uncomfortable running five kilometers. When I was teaching the brigade, I ran ten kilometers. When I was a recruit, I complained a lot. I killed the squad leader more than a hundred times in my heart. But then I became a veteran. I discovered a strange thing. During these five and ten kilometers, I feel really uncomfortable if I don’t run for a day. On a rainy day in the terraced house, looking outside, I couldn’t help but change into my fitness clothes and go for a run. Otherwise, it would be like that day. It’s like I’ve lost my soul. So, I can’t guarantee anything else if you are in my platoon from now on, but I will make a five-kilometer trip every day. I, Hou Jun, will do what I say and will definitely satisfy you!”
After hearing Hou Jun's words, Li Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The trip is five kilometers every day. According to veterans, in the future, they will have to carry a rucksack, carry a gun, and wear individual carrying equipment. The rucksack will also need to be equipped with raincoats, engineer shovels and other accessories. The personal load must be at least 35 per person. More than kilograms.
Thirty-five pounds!
That’s the weight of a whole little pig!
Now it takes half my life to run with bare hands, and I will have to carry so many things on my back in the future. Just thinking about it makes me break out in sweat.
When it was time to start running, Hou Jun suddenly walked up to Li Zheng and whispered to him: "Since I ran under 22 minutes for your first five-kilometer run, I have never been able to run under this time since then." , do you know why?”
When Li Zheng saw the platoon leader chatting with him personally and caring about his five-kilometer performance, he was actually not moved.
Why don't you care about my five-kilometer score?
"have no idea."
Li Zheng shook his head.
In fact, even if he knew, he could only say he didn't know.
Besides, I really don’t know.
Hou Jun showed a mysterious smile and said: "You are the eighth batch of recruits I have led. Believe me, your score today will definitely be within 22, but there is only one requirement."
Li Zheng asked: "What's the request?"
Hou Jun said: "If you can't run fast later, I will whip you!"
ah?
Is this also called a "request"?
Li Zheng's heart skipped a beat and he was about to argue, but before he could speak, the whistle in Wu's mouth had already been blown.
Beep——
"run!"
After Hou Jun finished speaking, he flicked the weapon in his hand and made a snapping sound.
"run!"
He almost shouted in Li Zheng's ear.
That feeling...
Li Zheng felt as if someone was holding a gong and drum and beating hard on his ear.
Then he bolted like a rabbit.
"Have you seen Zhang Jian?"
As Hou Jun ran, he pointed ahead at Zhang Jian, who was running first.
"You were able to keep up with him for the first time, which proves that you have this potential. Do you know why you couldn't keep up after that?"
At this time, he had just run less than 300 meters, and Li Zheng's breathing was not difficult, so he opened his mouth and answered: "I don't know."
"I know!" After Hou Jun finished speaking, he slapped Li Zheng's butt hard with his belt: "You deserve a spanking!"
The belt was so sharp that Li Zheng felt that Hou Jun's hands were too dark.
It hurts!
That really hurts!
That feeling instantly made the scene deep in Li Zheng's memory pop out of his mind.
When I was a child, I was very naughty, and my father also slapped me in the same way.
He was so excited that he unconsciously ran with the wind blowing under his feet.
"That's right! You just deserve a beating!"
Hou Jun followed and laughed all the way.
"Keep running! If you don't catch up with Zhang Jian, I'll whip you!"
After saying that, another belt was slapped on Li Zheng's butt.
"hiss--"
Li Zheng took a breath of air and quickly accelerated.
Soon, he really caught up with Zhang Jian, who was at the front of the team.
For more than half a month, Zhang Jian has never seen anyone running side by side with him to the finish line.
Suddenly Li Zheng chased him from the side, startling him.
Lost to Li Zheng?
no!
Zhang Jianli's horse accelerated with all his strength.
He accelerated and left Li Zheng behind. Li Zheng gave chase, but he felt that he would collapse if he continued to chase him. He would probably have to rest within five kilometers.
Just when he was slacking off, the belt, like the timely rain of dew after a long drought, was raised high again, fell hard, and hit Li Zheng's not-so-round butt firmly.
"Platoon commander, it hurts..."
Li Zheng said while running.
Hou Jun held up his belt, pretending to slap him, and kept yelling: "Run! If you don't run, I'll beat you to death!"
In order to prevent Hou Jun from whipping him, Li Zheng could only run as fast as he could.
He forgot that he was chasing Zhang Jian, and felt that he was hiding from Hou Jun.
As long as Hou Jun doesn't draw, that's it.
As a result, he actually surpassed Zhang Jian while running!
Zhang Jian was dumbfounded. Before he could recover, Hou Jun's belt slapped him directly on the buttocks.
"Ouch……"
He couldn't help grinning.
Acting platoon leader Hou Jun's tricks are ruthless!
"Platoon leader..."
"The queue is so long, I'm not the platoon leader! Run faster! If you can't catch up with Li Zheng, I'll beat you to death!"
After that, another belt came.
Zhang Jian was so painful that he almost cursed, but he didn't dare to. He could only chase Li Zheng desperately until he surpassed Li Zheng, and then it was Li Zheng's turn to repeat the previous story...
So, that morning, the sentry at the division headquarters saw a hilarious scene - a sergeant holding an armed belt in his hand, two recruits without military rank running in front of him, and a tall and big man running in front of him. At the front, another good-looking soldier was running in the second position. The sergeant chased the second soldier and spanked him. When the second soldier passed the first, it was the first soldier's turn to become the second soldier. spank...
On the boulevard where E Division was stationed, Li Zheng and Zhang Jian's screams of pain could be heard from time to time.
But neither Li Zheng nor Zhang Jian noticed that there were no other recruits visible behind them.
