No different from all the recruits in the lower company, the thirty-two recruits assigned to the fourth company this time were warmly welcomed by the veterans.
The reason why the veterans were happy to see the new recruits was because they actually had something unspeakable in their hearts.
Just like a daughter-in-law who has become a mother-in-law, I also looked like this stupid person at this time last year. Now I seem to see myself in those days in these new recruits. I feel a little proud in addition to sighing - Grandma is a bear! Finally became a veteran!
The beds were assigned by squad leader Wu Yi. Last year, four veterans left the squad. This year, Li Zheng, Ma Teng, Fatty Wei and Yang Hui were added. Zhang Jian was not assigned to the same class as Li Zheng, which made him secretly relieved. His tone made it clear that no one wanted to be in the same class as Zhang Jian. He had a vicious tongue and always had the urge to have someone go up and physically punish him.
The second squad leader is Chen Chong, the third squad leader is Kang Zheng, and Hou Jun is still the acting first platoon leader.
Zhang Jian and Jiang Xuan were assigned to the second squad and served under Chen Chong.
Just as I put away my luggage and folded my quilt, a whistle sounded outside, and the third platoon leader on duty shouted outside: "Assemble!"
Everyone hurriedly put on their hats and belts and ran out to gather on the lawn in front of the barracks.
The person in charge of the training this time was the instructor of the Fourth Company.
However, Li Zheng discovered that the instructor was no longer the one from the recruit company, but a different one, and the company commander was still the same company commander, Xie Dong.
The instructor's surname is Peng, Peng Liqin. He appears to be much older than the company commander Xie Dong. Xie Dong and Hou Jun are soldiers of the same age and are not yet thirty. The instructor is a captain. He looks to be in his thirties and has dark skin. , has a melon face. You wouldn’t call him ugly, but he definitely can’t be called handsome. His temperament is completely different from Xie Dong’s.
Company Commander Xie Dong has a sense of strength and vigor all over his body, but this is not the case for Instructor Peng. Maybe it’s because of his age, maybe it’s because he’s calm, but he looks a little sullen, with a poker face, and is very serious. .
This gathering was a brief meeting. Instructor Peng Liqin introduced every cadre in the company to everyone, and then began to explain in detail the various matters that the recruits should pay attention to after arriving in the company.
It is said that the company instructor has a mother-in-law talk and a tofu heart. Lao Peng also suffered from the stinky habit of being wordy. As soon as he opened his mouth, he talked endlessly about the high points of protecting the family, defending the country, dedicating youth to national defense and being willing to sacrifice. It took more than half an hour before everyone went back to their rooms to clean up the house.
The recruits all returned to the platoon, and the squad leader and company cadres were gathered together for a meeting.
Fatty Wei was folding the quilt absentmindedly, looking around with his little eyes.
Three soldiers who were transferred from other recruit platoons came to the platoon, two were from the second platoon and one was from the third platoon.
For a soldier like Fatty Wei, who has a wide circle of friends at home, he would certainly not miss the opportunity to get to know each other at the first opportunity.
The beds of the two soldiers in the second row are opposite Fatty Wei's bed. They have bunk beds for two people.
Across the bed, Fatty Wei stretched out his fat paws.
"Brother, who are you? Let me meet you. My name is Wei Guoxing, from Donghai. They all call me Fatty Wei. What do you call me?"
This very social but effective way of self-introduction is very effective. Introduce yourself first, which represents your magnanimity, call each other brothers, shorten the distance between each other, and take the initiative to say hello and get to know each other, which is respect.
Coupled with Fatty Wei's fat face that makes his teeth disappear when he smiles, even a Bingbao would have to reply with a polite word.
Sure enough, the recruit from the second row across from him quickly stretched out his hand, and grasped Fatty Wei's fat claws with both hands.
"My name is Li Haojiang, from Yimeng."
"Oh, comrades from the old revolutionary base! Nice to meet you!"
Fatty Wei stretched out one hand, and Li Haojiang took it with both hands. Fatty Wei felt very proud.
Li Zheng took a look at Li Haojiang. He was a strong man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He also had a round face, but his skin was rough, but from his eyes to his eyebrows to his nose to his lips, two words seemed to be printed on every place - honest and honest. !
Fatty Wei also had a good eye for Li Haojiang and felt that he was a real person.
So I immediately wanted to unite.
"wait!"
He lowered his head and pulled out his backpack from under his bed, took out a pack of beef jerky and handed it over.
"Have some!"
Li Haojiang waved his hand quickly: "No, no, no! You are too polite."
"Take it! Take it! Let's share the blessings! In the future, we will be comrades eating from the same pot! What's the point of sharing a few snacks among comrades?"
As he spoke, he deliberately glanced in Zhang Jian's direction.
Zhang Jian was diagonally opposite. He saw and heard it without raising his head and didn't even look at Fatty Wei.
After some refusal, Li Haojiang finally accepted.
But when he got it in his hand, he felt embarrassed, but he didn't have snacks on him, so he felt it all over his body and finally said: "Old Wei, next time I go to the supermarket to buy things, I'll treat you to a soda."
Fatty Wei waved his hand generously: "Okay! Between our comrades, we can follow each other wherever we go!"
After saying that, he went to ask another person: "Brother, where are you from?"
…
After another exchange of polite greetings and bragging, Fatty Wei gave away two more boxes of beef jerky and made two new comrades.
One of these two people is named Wang Qing, who is from northern Hubei, and the other is named Chen Chen, who is from western Guangxi.
Li Zheng learned through their chat that the two recruits from the second platoon were not selected because they were good at training, but were sent here because they were not good at training.
"That second platoon leader of yours is really nothing!" Fatty Wei slapped the bed: "What does he think of our first platoon? A recycling bin?"
As soon as he said the words, he suddenly felt something bad. He immediately took a selfie and said, "Hey, I'm not talking about you. I mean, the second platoon leader is not honest. He doesn't abandon or give up. This is my first time as a soldier." We all know this sentence, it’s shouted every day in the movies, what’s wrong, you gave up after poor training? Compared with our platoon commanders, they are far behind. If you don’t believe me, ask them, my training was as bad as shit when I first came here. , look, after being trained by my platoon leader for more than two months, during the assessment, I ran within 20 minutes and 30 seconds for the five kilometers! Tell me, what kind of progress is this! And bombing..."
"Ahem!"
Before he could finish speaking, two coughs came from the door.
Fatty Wei was so frightened that he felt out of his body because it was Hou Jun's voice.
"Wei Guoxing, what are you talking about?"
Hou Jun and several squad leaders had apparently finished their meeting and returned to the row room. They happened to hear Fatty Wei blowing water.
"No!" Fatty Wei quickly stood up: "Platoon leader, you know me. I was praising you just now! I can run so fast in five kilometers and can throw bombs so far because of the platoon leader's good teaching. , I am telling the new comrades that you are blessed to be in our platoon..."
Even a veteran like Hou Jun was embarrassed to scold Fatty Wei anymore after being praised for not hitting the smiling person.
"Extreme Spiritual Chaos Jue"
"Have you folded the quilts? Get a broom and go out to clean. Sweep the lawns in front of and behind our barracks and the basketball court in front of our barracks. I'll check later. There can't be a single leaf left!"
"yes!"
The big guy got up quickly, went behind the door to get a broom, and disappeared behind the door like a gust of wind.
After the new recruits left, Wu Yi looked outside the door and then slammed the notebook in his hand onto the table!
"That boy Wei Guoxing is right! The second platoon leader is a bully! Look at what he just said, you have more experience in leading troops than I do in the platoon. Li Haojiang and Wang Qing can probably save you if they leave you there... Tsk tsk! How good are you at talking? We picked up two of our own soldiers, as well as the third platoon leader... I saw the assessment results of the Chen Chen who was sent here, and they are all nothing!"
"First squad leader, please stop scolding me. The two of you were assigned to my class, not yours. I haven't cried in mourning yet!" Kang Zheng, the second squad leader, pulled up a bench with an unhappy look on his face and sat down on it. Stifling.
The third squad leader Chen Zhong said: "I'm talking about Lao Kang, we are all brothers in need. Isn't there one in my class? It turns out that Xu Yang in our class can train well, although he is not as strong as Li Zheng and Zhang Jian. Anyway, It’s not bad, now give me Wang Qing, I heard that boy is a famous dick soldier, even their squad leader can’t control him..."
"Okay!" Hou Jun interrupted Wu Yi: "What they do is their business, and what we do is our own business. Chen Chong, do you think you can't control it? Do you want me to take care of it myself?"
Chen Zhong immediately lost his temper.
The squad leader will also complain. If you say you can't lead the soldiers assigned to you, no one can afford to lose face.
The monitor also has the self-esteem of the monitor.
Seeing that the three of them were silent, Hou Jun said: "I don't want to talk about anything else. The month before the next company will focus on common subjects. In another month, I heard that there will be an exercise. After the exercise, we will adapt it. These squad leaders don’t know whether to retire yet, so why are you worrying so much? When you are a soldier, you stand on duty for a day. This is your responsibility and your quality!"
Speaking of adaptation, Wu Yi couldn't help but said: "Platoon commander, what do you think our regiment will change this time? Heavy equipment combined brigade? Armored brigade? Or amphibious? Air assault? Or special operations?"
Hou Jun said: "What do you want to change?"
Wu Yi smiled and said: "Of course it's special operations! How majestic. I wanted to be a special forces soldier before I joined the army. I have been doing so for several years. I thought there was no hope. Suddenly I said I wanted to adapt it. Of course I thought about it."
Hou Jun said: "Stop dreaming! Besides, I guess our commander doesn't want to change the special operations."
Wu Yi said: "Why?"
Hou Jun said: "Isn't this simple? Changing the special operations means that the professions are not in line with each other. Do you know how many cadres and soldiers will be laid off? Our regiment leader is an emotional person. If the organization is changed more, at least more people can be retained. point."
Wu Yi nodded in understanding: "That makes sense..."
