Chapter 1166

"All～"

"Attention!"

"Right～ dress!"

"Stomp! Stomp! Get the small steps moving, move!"

"Did you dress right? Huh? Where did your eyes grow?"

After running five kilometers, the veteran squad leaders showed the seriousness of the black face, and the company commander Gao Cheng showed blending in with the new recruits. After breakfast, they washed up, tidied up internal affairs again, and started formal military training for the new recruit company.

The veteran squad leaders led the new recruits under their command, each found a place, and started training the new recruits. A sound of scolding rang out on the playground, that was the gradually decreasing patience of the veteran squad leaders.

"Xu Sanduo!"

Wu Liuyi shouted, and stood in front of Xu Sanduo, "Stomp! Dress! After dressing, stop stomping, stand straight! Did I not speak clearly, or can't you understand? Why can others do it well, but you can't? Huh?"

The distance between the two was very close, so close that Wu Liuyi's spit covered Xu Sanduo's face.

Xu Sanduo twisted his face, as if he was also helpless: "Squad leader, I always do it wrong!"

After saying that, he smiled at Wu Liuyi.

This made Wu Liuyi even more angry: "What are you laughing at? Huh? What's so funny?"

"Squad leader, I'm not, I..."

"What are you? Push-ups ready!" Wu Liuyi glared at Xu Sanduo.

"Yes!"

Xu Sanduo didn't explain anymore, he knew his explanation no one listened to. He didn't even ask how many push-ups to do, without a word, he directly stuck his butt out and started doing them.

He was quite good at this point, with high obedience.

Wang Yan and the others stood in military posture on the side, glancing at Xu Sanduo's movements.

In fact, Wang Yan knew the reason, Xu Sanduo didn't put himself into it, he didn't pay enough attention to being a soldier. And his reflex arc was indeed quite long, hadn't opened up yet, and was cowardly and silly.

From this perspective, Cheng Cai's nickname for him 'Three Silly' wasn't very pleasant, but it indeed meant that, and it was quite appropriate.

In a while, Xu Sanduo's arms trembled: "Report squad leader, can't do it anymore!"

"Get up!"

"Yes!"

Xu Sanduo returned to the ranks.

"All～"

Wu Liuyi shouted the command again, Xu Sanduo didn't surprise anyone, still making mistakes.

He couldn't keep up with the march, he always tripped himself when turning backward, he laughed as soon as he made a mistake, Wu Liuyi glared at him, and he returned a smiling face.

Then Xu Sanduo was unlucky, and Wang Yan and the others were also unlucky. One person makes a mistake, dragging down the whole group, this kind of thing is very common in the army.

The reason is to exert pressure on the soldier who made the mistake, let other soldiers have opinions about him, let him feel ashamed and then brave, absorb the experience and lessons of making mistakes, and never make mistakes again and achieve progress.

However, it didn't seem to be of much use on Xu Sanduo. Because Wang Yan and the others did a day of push-ups and squats, and the physical training was quite good.

Wu Liuyi was also completely helpless, after dinner, he pulled Wang Yan to smoke and chat.

"No, what's going on with that Xu Sanduo?" Now it was Wu Liuyi's turn to twist his face, he touched his crew cut, smoking in large gulps, very helpless.

For someone with a fiery temper, a person like Xu Sanduo is a nemesis, he can make you want to die, clench your heart into a ball and pull it into a rope, and then weave it into an unsolvable dead knot.

"No, you're an old squad leader who has led new recruit company training several times, what haven't you seen? You ask me, how can I know?"

"You're the one closest to him, relationship is good, and you stood up for him to hit that Cheng Cai. If you say so, then you can do squats tomorrow, anyway I have no tricks. Look at him like that, can't fart after three sticks, whatever you say is useless. Look at the others, kick two feet and they'll be honest, this one is good, whatever you do is useless. Oh my... worried me to death."

Wu Liuyi took another big puff of smoke, very melancholy, a bit depressed...

Wang Yan smiled: "According to my contact with him, I think this kid is just a bit slow in reaction, missing a string in his brain, when this string is tied for him, he will be fine.

He did the wrong movement, laughed himself, why? I think it's embarrassment, using a smile to ease his embarrassment. Don't say whether anyone saw it, there are so many people, he thinks someone can see it.

You scold him, he also laughs, why? He is pleasing you. As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, he thinks if he gives you a smile, you can feel better, and you can treat him better. Always doing it wrong, always making mistakes, you think he doesn't know what's good? I'm afraid he's already crying in his heart."

"That's not embarrassment, I think he's too embarrassed."

Wu Liuyi was silent for a moment, then twisted his face again, pointing at his brain, "Is there something wrong with his brain? Why do I feel he's different from normal people? He makes my hair stand on end when he laughs."

"Didn't Cheng Cai say, Xu Sanduo is good at studying, they are from the same village, it should be true, his brain can't be bad. And let me tell you, the rules and regulations of the army issued yesterday, he memorized them all, basically equivalent to never forgetting. For such a person, can you say his brain is not good?"

Wang Yan looked like he was pondering, saying, "I think, maybe it's still the reason of character, a bit cowardly, a bit timid. Cheng Cai beat him a lot at home, beat him until he grew up. What did he tell me? Said it was joking. But if you say this person, has character, it's not wrong."

"Get lost, it's just cowardly!" Wu Liuyi was full of disgust, and instead said, "No, you analyzed a bunch, tell me what to do."

Wang Yan shook his head helplessly: "No way. I'll suffer a bit, take him to practice more, who told me to be the squad deputy, the advanced lead the backward."

"Hey, this is your own willingness, it's not what I said." Wu Liuyi smiled like an old chrysanthemum.

"Look, the fox's tail is exposed. Talking and talking, it's just this meaning, right? I said why did you, an old squad leader, chat with me, a new recruit, looking at your thick eyebrows and big eyes, didn't expect so many thoughts, you hit the idea of pulling me to do coolie from the beginning."

"What kind of talk is that, you said it yourself, you're the squad deputy, you have to have the advanced lead the backward."

"Then what else can I do? Turn around and get me two boxes of cigarettes, I have to collect some filial piety from the old squad leader."

"No problem, two boxes of Yuxi." Wu Liuyi agreed very readily, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing after speaking, "Others are new recruits giving cigarettes to veterans, I'm the opposite, still have to give you filial piety."

"Then you take him to practice."

"Didn't I give it, I'll go to the service agency tomorrow to buy it, give it to you at noon. We've agreed on this."

"Leaving." Wang Yan extinguished the cigarette butt, and chatted and laughed with Wu Liuyi back to the barracks.

It's not clear how Wu Liuyi taught Xu Sanduo in the original play, but it's probably also practicing more, maybe Shi Jin and Wu Liuyi took turns accompanying him.

But now there is Wang Yan, this innate soldier saint body, physical quality is excellent, learning of various subjects is once and for all, and even particularly standard. Wu Liuyi gets along quite well with Wang Yan, Wang Yan also gets along quite well with Xu Sanduo, so letting Wang Yan have the advanced lead the backward is no problem, very reasonable.

Wang Yan of course wouldn't refuse.

Not to mention he has to take care of Xu Sanduo himself, there are also some honors for new recruit training in the regiment, including this veteran squad leader Wu Liuyi, who also has honors, as long as the new recruits he leads are good enough.

In short, it's one sentence, if there's a red flag, carry it, if there's honor, fight for it!

In the army, it's not idle at night, either organizing ideological study, or organizing some cultural and sports activities, or carrying out other training subjects, trying to enrich the life of officers and soldiers.

The activity tonight is learning military songs, red songs. A big bunch of people took the printed lyrics and learned how to sing from the veteran squad leaders. In the army, officers and soldiers singing of course don't care if it sounds good, as long as it's basically in tune. They only pursue two points, one is singing in unison, and the other is having strength.

After all, even if it sounds good, when singing collectively, the voice is covered, and you can't hear how good it is. A slight off-key will also be corrected by the collective, in short, just open your mouth and shout.

This is what Gao Cheng said.

The new recruits gathered in a circle, Gao Cheng was passionate in the circle, he even sang a song with great mood, proving to everyone how bad his singing was, and sang along with the veterans, the voice was huge.

Singing "There is a truth that doesn't need to be told, soldiers should go to the battlefield..."

Wang Yan knew this song very well, because he once 'created' it, the lyrics and music were all his name...

After learning the song, memorizing the lyrics, and checking the recitation of army discipline, those who were unqualified did some push-ups, squats, etc. Then tidy up internal affairs, the veterans scolded for a while, the new recruits trembled for a while, and the tiring day finally ended.

A new recruit with a face like a fox and a bit of cunning walked over and sat on Wang Yan's bed.

"Comrades of the Third Squad, interview you, how was today? Everyone is watching, I counted for you, a total of 150 push-ups, 120 squats, and 100 sit-ups. Oh my, you'll be miserable tomorrow morning, whether you can get up is another matter."

"Get lost, Bai Tiejun, don't gloat, let me tell you, you're fast too." A new recruit in the squad scolded.

"Oh my, still have the strength to scold people, I think you're still not tired." Bai Tiejun was cheap.

This is a soldier of the Third Squad in the original play, a new recruit of the same period as Xu Sanduo, who left after two years of compulsory service. Before leaving, he said it didn't matter, but when he really left, he cried like a mess.

He is cheap-mouthed, but easy-going, can get along with anyone, and is in the same squad as Cheng Cai now.

However, he expressed in front of Wang Yan that he didn't like Cheng Cai and was actively leaning toward the First Squad, which was quite interesting.

Speaking of Cheng Cai, Wang Yan glanced at the position not far away, where Cheng Cai was soaking his feet and bragging with others.

Cheng Cai of course felt ashamed, felt he had no face, but what could he do? He could only act as if nothing had happened, do what he had to do, he couldn't always hang his face, wanting to die.

And others didn't have contradictions with Cheng Cai, they couldn't exclude him, they still had to get along, and even under Cheng Cai's intention to manage, he got along quite well with them.

Furthermore, removing the contradiction with Wang Yan, Cheng Cai performed very well, training actively, attitude was serious, learned fast, and did well. He was also selected as squad deputy just like in the original play...

Wang Yan smiled: "You kid is really cheap, if everyone didn't have much strength left, I would definitely make you laugh to death today."

"Hey, Wang squad deputy, sorry, I don't have ticklish spots."

"Squad deputy, this guy is a bit too much, he even dares to clamor with you?"

"I think so too." Wang Yan hugged Bai Tiejun, and directly pressed him onto the bed, "Come, come, come, let's see if you really don't have ticklish spots."

"Here it comes."

After a while, Bai Tiejun lay on the bed, one hand covering his cramping stomach, one hand wiping tears, looking lifeless.

"Wang squad deputy, didn't you say you didn't have strength?"

"I said everyone didn't have strength, didn't say I didn't have strength. Convinced?"

"I was convinced early on. Hey, I have this one good point, can bend and stretch. Have you read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Deng Ai said it, being born in poverty is not a shame, being able to bend and stretch is a husband."

"Oh my, this means you're a husband, I think you're still unconvinced." A new recruit leaned over, "Come, come, come, dad will love you again."

"Convinced, convinced, really convinced." Bai Tiejun begged for mercy.

After a little commotion, Bai Tiejun opened his eyes and saw Xu Sanduo blocking the light, grinning at him.

"Finished being scolded?"

"Huh?" Xu Sanduo didn't understand.

"Asking you, weren't you taken out by the platoon leader for individual training?"

"Didn't get scolded, the platoon leader is quite good. He told me to train seriously, be a good soldier, be a good soldier." Xu Sanduo responded with his local accent, still wearing a big smiling face.

"What did the platoon leader say?" Someone asked.

"Just cared about whether my body was okay, if I was used to it these two days, I said it was quite good..."

Xu Sanduo muttered for a while, making others confused, unable to understand how someone like him could not be scolded.

Xu Sanduo seemed to see the thoughts of the crowd, and seemed not to. After finishing speaking, he said directly: "Don't worry, I will definitely train better tomorrow, definitely won't drag you down."

"Hehe..." Bai Tiejun gave a fake laugh, patted Xu Sanduo on the shoulder, "Then you cheer up, you guys pray for your own blessings. Oh my, I'm tired to death, sleep, sleep..."

"Why are you so cheap..." A new recruit scolded with a smile.

"I'll see if you're still tough tomorrow."

"Get lost!"

Wang Yan didn't bother with them, called Xu Sanduo who was preparing to wash up, and pulled him out of the barracks. Wu Liuyi had already explained, the squad leader on duty didn't stop them two.

"What's the matter, Wang Yan?"

Wang Yan lit a cigarette and asked: "Tired?"

"Not tired, I was more tired doing work at home than this."

"Then let's practice again, can we?"

Xu Sanduo was stunned for a moment, the silly smile was gone, he lowered his head and was silent.

"Wang Yan, am I..."

He was ultimately not a real fool, on the contrary, he was actually very sensitive, just because he was cowardly, because he had no opinions, so he looked like he made people angry.

"You're asking what you know."

Wang Yan smiled, "You think you can't practice well, is it your own business? No, it's many people's business. Shi Jin platoon leader recruited you, you also told me about it, he said he would bring you to be a good soldier, not let your dad scold you as a turtle son.

Wu Liuyi squad leader, is an elite soldier of our regiment, that's a soldier king, famous in our division. And Shi Jin platoon leader, is Wu Liuyi's squad leader, what does that mean? It means Shi Jin is also an excellent elite soldier. In the army, people who are not excellent can't be squad leaders.

They are responsible for the training of new recruits, do you think it's just them training us and it's over? No. They also have assessments. If anyone's soldiers don't practice well, it also has an impact. But if they practice well, they will also be rewarded.

You've heard everyone talking about military rank and such these two days, know what a non-commissioned officer is, what a military officer is. Xu Sanduo, being a soldier is not a simple thing. It's not that you can be a soldier for a lifetime after entering the military camp. Shi Jin served for eight years, Wu Liuyi served for six years, they treat the army as home, they don't want to leave the army. Do you understand?"

"Understand..."

"No, you don't understand."

Wang Yan smiled and patted his shoulder, "In short, whether you practice well or badly, it affects their grades. If you don't practice well, their grades won't be good, which affects whether they can continue to stay in the army in the future. If you practice well, although it doesn't play a decisive role, as long as you don't drag them down, making their grades better, there is more hope to stay in the army. This is what you can help Shi Jin platoon leader, and Wu Liuyi squad leader!"

"I can help them?" Xu Sanduo raised his head suddenly.

"Not just them, you can also help us!" Wang Yan nodded with a smile, "If you practice well, then others in our squad won't be like today, right? And our new recruits also have honors, maybe I can get them."

"Really?" Xu Sanduo smiled again, "Wang Yan, don't worry, I will definitely practice well, let you get honors, and let Shi Jin platoon leader and the others stay in the army."

Wang Yan shook his head amusingly, then asked: "Xu Sanduo, do you really want to be a soldier? Can you be a good soldier?"

"I... can..." He was uncertain again.

"Look, you don't have confidence in yourself, how can you be a good soldier?"

"I can't..."

"A man can't say he can't."

"Why can't I?"

"Just can't!"

Wang Yan looked solemn, "Xu Sanduo, when we met on the first day, I knew you could be a good soldier. Don't think so much, just focus on doing the things in front of you well, do simple things repeatedly, do repeated things firmly, you improve a little today, improve a little tomorrow, every day is stronger than the day before, then you can become a good soldier. Xu Sanduo, I know you can."

"Wang Yan, I know you're doing it for my own good, I'll listen to you!"

"Not listening to me, but doing your own thing. Xu Sanduo, tell me, can you?"

"I can!"

"Can't hear clearly, louder!"

"I can!"

"Xu Sanduo!"

"Here!"

"Attention～"
