Li Zheng was sitting under the tree at the assembly point, eating pork tenderloin from the individual soldier food, and drinking water with his brothers.
Fatty Wei danced and gestured, vividly but exaggeratedly describing the confrontation with Lao Te.
Even Zhang Jian, who had always been unsociable, was sitting aside at this time, looking at Fatty Wei who he always hated with a smile, and rarely poured cold water on him or stepped on him.
"I asked him to take off his clothes at that time, but he dared not to take off his clothes! I said you are a dead man, you are so stupid! If you violate the rules of confrontation, your blood wolf brigade will lose face! It turns out that he is the captain As soon as I heard it, I came over and asked him to take off his clothes for me! Oh! He’s just an old guy! What’s so great about it!”
Come and try it quickly. 】
Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this, and many people gave Fatty Wei a thumbs up.
Suddenly someone asked: "How do you know they are from the Blood Wolf Brigade?"
This question hits the point.
In fact, Fatty Wei didn't know which army the other party came from at that time, but he just knew that the other party must be Lao Te.
Seeing that his secret was exposed, Fatty Wei blushed and changed the subject: "Do you know that their team has a drone! I saw them release it, just before you guys opened fire and killed each other, that thing is really It’s easy to use, we will probably distribute it in the future…”
This move successfully diverted everyone's attention, and everyone began to dream about the small drones that would be distributed in the future.
Li Zheng finished eating the tenderloin and was about to get another portion.
Company leader Ji said generously before that they could eat as much as they liked, and there would be dinner afterward.
This is a reward for a class that performs well.
Li Zheng felt that this kind of compensation was appropriate.
In the past few days, my stomach has suffered a lot. I have eaten wild fruits, vegetables, ants, insects, everything.
No matter what, you have to make up for it.
I went to the cooking class to get one. When I turned around and came out, I saw squad leader Hou Jun coming out of the company headquarters. His face didn't look very good. He saluted at the door and turned towards a secluded place.
Li Zheng felt something was wrong.
While everyone was still discussing just now, a squad leader in the next row said that your squad leader had gone to the company headquarters to receive a commendation. He was probably going to make meritorious deeds this time, and he might be able to get some promotions when he got back.
At that time, the new recruits thought it was very fresh.
How can we accomplish meritorious deeds by just holding a confrontation drill, and also be able to improve our work?
Li Zheng raised his own questions.
The veteran sneered and said that you, a new recruit, know nothing! Hou Jun was a top trainer when he was in E Division. He had been the acting platoon leader for several years and he had done a great job. If it hadn't been for the reorganization, there might have been hope of promotion.
Now it has been adapted into a special operations brigade. One year has almost passed. This confrontation exercise is a big test, do you understand? The big test, the big test at the end of the year!
The veteran said to Li Zheng because he relied on his old skills and said, "Do you think the annual assessment must be on the training ground, the shooting range, or the obstacle course?"
Actual military training is also a kind of big test, and it is the big test that best reflects your performance.
After he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes at Li Zheng with an expression like "you know a thing".
But just a short time later, Li Zheng thought he was wrong when he saw the look of his squad leader, with a worried and silent expression on his face.
He didn't want to care, so he walked a few steps toward the big tree where Fatty Wei and the others were blowing water, and suddenly felt something pulling on his heels, making him unable to move forward.
After hesitating for a while, he finally turned around and walked in the direction of Hou Jun.
Hou Jun was sitting on the hillside at this time.
It was already dusk of the second day, and the afterglow of the setting sun was spreading on the hillside. The messy trees and weeds actually had a poetic flavor.
Hou Jun sat quietly, with clouds of white smoke rising from his head.
Li Zheng saw from a distance that his squad leader was smoking.
It seems like I haven't seen the monitor smoking for a while.
He used to smoke secretly, but since he went out for training, Hou Jun's smoking has gradually decreased.
Someone once asked, if Hou Jun says he smokes, can you guys see it?
In fact, Li Zheng knew in his heart that he really smoked less.
Maybe it's for physical fitness.
Maybe it's for something else...
But today is an exception.
"Monitor."
Li Zheng leaned over and shouted behind Hou Jun.
Hou Jun turned his head in surprise and saw it was Li Zheng. He said "Oh" and turned back to look at the sunset. He said indifferently: "It's you."
Li Zheng pretended not to know anything, sat down next to Hou Jun, and handed over a piece of chocolate in his hand.
"Squad leader, do you want something to eat?"
Hou Jun looked down, then shook his head and continued to smoke.
Li Zheng had no choice but to eat it by himself.
While eating, I ran out of words to say: "Squad leader, our company commander just came over to praise us. He said that we are very talented as special forces. It is estimated that in another year, we can catch up with the soldiers of the Blood Wolf Brigade."
Li was actually bragging.
Lao Ji's original words were exaggerated, but then he changed the topic and returned to his usual style, pouring cold water on everyone, saying that you should not think that you are invincible just because you won the Blood Wolf Brigade once. Those who have studied the majors you have learned at least I haven’t touched more than a dozen subjects. It’s too early to become a special forces soldier! If you don’t believe it, don’t think that making a whoosh in the jungle is very majestic. Next, let’s go to the plateau and let you try the obstacle course and parachute on the plateau. Then we will go to the beach to let you see what it means to be underwater. For homework, only those soldiers who take you on a submarine, climb through torpedo tubes, and jump over halo can say that they are elite amphibious soldiers.
Hou Jun didn't say anything, just smoked silently and watched the sunset.
Li Zheng felt bored. He didn't know what the brigade commander said when he called him to the tent.
Anyway, judging from Hou Jun's current mood, it's definitely not a good thing.
"Squad leader, did the brigade commander call you over just now to perform meritorious deeds for you?"
After all, Li Zheng still didn't dare to do that.
It's definitely a happy event if it's certain. If it's not certain, if the outcome is completely opposite, it will be a bad thing.
"The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk..."
Hou Jun suddenly chanted something out of nowhere, which made Li Zheng feel a little unreal.
Before Li Zheng could recover, Hou Jun asked again: "Li Zheng, do you know why Demon Tong didn't choose you when he chose a sniper for the first time last time?"
Li Zheng saw him bringing up old things again, so he answered honestly: "I know, training an excellent sniper takes too much effort, and it requires a long time. If I were a compulsory soldier and had two years of service, I wouldn't be able to do it yet." When I finish my studies, I will retire from the army, so he has a very good reason for not choosing me, and I don’t blame him for this."
Hou Jun turned his face sideways and looked at Li Zheng, making the latter feel a little dizzy at the sight, and finally asked: "Then why did you have to strive to be a sniper later?"
Li Zheng frowned and tried his best to think about it.
In fact, he had never thought about it carefully.
When it came, he said: "I think it is a kind of inertia..."
"Inertia?" Hou Jun asked curiously.
Li Zheng nodded: "Yeah, inertia. People always have to challenge good things and difficult things. For example, when I was in high school, my English was not very good for a while. Later I found out that my vocabulary was too small. In the year before the college entrance examination, I struggled every day. I increased my vocabulary, recited it while walking, and recited it in the toilet. I went to tourist attractions to practice with foreigners during holidays. During the college entrance examination, my English score was better than my Chinese score. In fact, I didn’t just do it to get into a good university. I just feel that I don’t tolerate any areas where I am too weak. If I am weak, I have to make up for it. This is a kind of inertia.”
Hou Jun nodded as if understanding, and then asked: "Then you don't want to stay in the army, then why? Is it because of your grandma at home? Or is it your studies?"
Li Zhenggang's relaxed brows wrinkled again.
What happened to the monitor today?
Do you always ask questions like "to be or not to be?"
"I can't explain clearly. I came to serve as a soldier just because I felt I should come, and if I don't want to stay, I just feel I should leave, at least for now. It's hard for me to explain some things. I don't know how. Use all the principles to analyze everything and give full reasons. For example, there is a classic question, lovers always ask what do you love about me? In fact, if it can be said with 100% accuracy and detail, the feeling of love will be like If you can solve a problem like a mathematical formula and explain it, it is basically not true love. Love is just a feeling. It is a vague thing, and sometimes it cannot be explained or analyzed. Just like patriotism, why do you love your country? No reason, this is me The country I was born to love..."
"like……"
Hou Jun looked into the distance thoughtfully.
The sun shone on his dark face, and his vision gradually became clear.
"I see!"
After saying that, he stood up and patted the dust on his butt, turned around and strode towards the company headquarters.
