Chapter 67: Is this right? This can't be right!

~8 min read 1,412 words

"Is Xu Sanduo here?"

Ma Jun stood straight, shouting without the slightest expression on his face.

"What do you want with Xu Sanduo?" Shi Jin glanced at the foot-washing basin in Ma Jun's hand and asked.

"I lost. He won the abdominal rotation on the horizontal bar. Originally, Xu Sanduo was going to wash his feet in our squad, but our Squad Leader didn't allow it. I'm willing to bet and lose, so I'm here to wash his feet today."

When Ma Jun said this, his body was trembling.

Everyone is a hot-blooded man, and everyone has dignity.

Especially with so many people watching.

This dignity was about to fall apart.

Wu Liuyi stared at Feng Yuxiu in astonishment. "He still remembers this? What do you plan to do? Really let him wash your feet here?"

Feng Yuxiu was silent for a moment and walked toward Ma Jun.

On the way, he was grabbed by the arm by Shi Jin. "Sanduo, listen to me, let this matter go. Leave a way out for others."

Feng Yuxiu said, "Squad Leader, don't worry, everyone is a comrade, it's not that mean, it's just a hot-blooded bet."

Hearing this, Shi Jin looked deeply at Feng Yuxiu and let go of his arm, clearing the path.

Ma Jun stared at Feng Yuxiu expressionlessly.

He bent down, put down the water basin, squatted on the ground, and placed his hands on the rim of the basin. "I'm willing to bet and lose; if I lose, I have to admit it."

Feng Yuxiu looked at this veteran. The neck under the camouflage uniform was tanned black and red by the scorching sun, and the calluses on the tiger's mouth of his hands showed that he was an extremely hardworking person.

The silence between the two brought silence to the entire Third Platoon.

Cheng Cai stood in the corridor, looking at Feng Yuxiu with a complex expression.

All the spotlight had been taken by him.

Now the First Squad didn't like him anymore.

Deceiving comrades, everyone didn't like him.

"Squad Leader, did you go to the wrong place? This is the Third Platoon."

Feng Yuxiu squatted down, picked up the foot-washing basin, stood on the second floor, and poured it down toward the bottom.

Then, under Ma Jun's dazed gaze, he pulled him up and walked down the stairs step by step.

He walked out of the Third Platoon's dormitory door and headed toward the First Platoon.

The First Squad of the First Platoon was on the first floor, and at this moment, they were all standing in the corridor in military posture.

Feng Yuxiu placed the foot-washing basin under Ma Jun's bed and smiled. "Squad Leader, didn't you also break your own record? Where did you lose?"

Ma Jun was stunned.

"Everyone is a comrade."

After saying this, Feng Yuxiu turned and walked out.

"Ma Jun, come out and stand in military posture!" The First Squad Leader of the First Platoon shouted loudly.

Ma Jun smiled. "Yes!"

——

——

The First Platoon stood in military posture for twenty-four hours, and everyone felt that their bodies were no longer their own.

Under the persuasion of Instructor Hong Xingguo, this military posture session finally ended.

On the third day, Gao Cheng issued a lifeblood order, and each squad began training.

No one knew what the training was for.

But they could only end the previous rest period.

Only Shi Jin kept his brows tightly furrowed, with something weighing on his heart.

Carrying a heavy machine gun on his shoulder, he began a five-kilometer forced march.

Hand-to-hand combat.

Blindfolded disassembly and assembly of firearms.

Besides eating, drinking, and sleeping, it was training.

High-intensity, dense training.

The training caused everyone to lose expression on their faces.

A full week later.

Gao Cheng stood on the playground. "I believe you have all improved after a week of training compared to your previous cowardly appearance. Tonight, we will hold an exercise."

Everyone's bodies tightened.

Another exercise.

A density that didn't let people rest.

"This exercise is very simple: hide and seek!"

"How do we play hide and seek? Each platoon leader, each squad leader, deputy squad leader, including me, are the mice, and all of you are the old cats. Three hours later, you will head toward the 307 position. When you step into the 307 position, the time will be one hour. Within this hour, find us as much as possible!"

Wu Liuyi was stunned. "Isn't this just catching tongues?"

"Relax, if you catch more than two platoon leaders, more than five squad leaders, or catch me directly, the game is over."

After saying this, Gao Cheng took Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi, and all the squad and platoon leaders and left the barracks with a rumble.

Everyone looked at each other strangely.

This game had no command and no tactics.

It was just seeing who could hide well.

Who could find the hidden mice at the fastest speed.

"Third Brother, I'll follow you." Bai Tiejun lowered his voice.

"Me too." Gan Xiaoning narrowed his eyes.

Feng Yuxiu sneered. "This isn't a team game. The more scattered people are, the easier it is to find them. If you gather in groups, the empty areas left will be large. The 307 position is so big, hiding so few people, especially in the dark night, how do you find them?"

Bai Tiejun and Gan Xiaoning looked at each other, a bit disappointed.

"However, the Company Commander just said we only need to find them; he didn't say what method to use." Feng Yuxiu narrowed his eyes.

The two immediately beamed. "I knew Third Brother had twisted methods."

Gan Xiaoning's face fell. "Speak properly, do you know how to praise people? What do you mean by twisted methods?"

Three hours passed quickly.

The moment the countdown ended.

The vehicles started and rumbled toward the 307 position.

"I have a question. Wasn't Ma Jun from the Red Third Company? When did he come to the Steel Seventh Company?" Feng Yuxiu voiced his long-standing doubt.

Gan Xiaoning laughed. "Poached. After you finished the abdominal rotation on the horizontal bar, he was poached."

"The Company Commander did it?"

Gan Xiaoning chuckled. "Our Company Commander likes this kind of unconventional soldier the most."

Feng Yuxiu paused. No wonder this time the Steel Seventh Company had three platoons exercising, and Ma Jun appeared in the First Squad of the First Platoon.

The Company Commander is worthy of being the Company Commander; there is no soldier he can't poach.

I don't know how the Third Company Commander compromised.

"Sanduo, everyone's gone, what should we do?" Gan Xiaoning looked around. Except for the sentries and those on guard duty, the entire Seventh Company was empty.

Feng Yuxiu turned and walked toward the warehouse.

"I remember the company received a batch of night vision devices last week; won't they come in handy now?"

The two, Gan Xiaoning and Bai Tiejun, were stunned.

"Sanduo, Sanduo, listen to me, the warehouse door is locked, we can't open it."

Slap!

Feng Yuxiu sat on the car, one end of the car was tied with a rope, and the other end of the rope was firmly tied to the iron door.

"Boom! Rumble!"

As white smoke rose from the car's hood, the tires rubbed against the black rubber marks.

A hole was pulled open at the bottom of the iron door.

"What is an exercise? An exercise means the war has already begun. Since it's a war, use everything you can to kill the enemy!"

"Either you die, or I die!"

Feng Yuxiu handed three sets of night vision devices to Gan Xiaoning and Bai Tiejun.

"The company is still too poor, no infrared detection, otherwise it would be simple."

"Get in the car!"

Bai Tiejun looked at the night vision device in his hand in shock. "Xiaoning, should we wear them? Isn't this a violation of discipline?"

Gan Xiaoning gritted his teeth. "It's already like this, can we run away? At worst, we'll be punished. When we find the Company Commander, we'll beat him up; that way, we'll feel comfortable after being punished!"

After saying this, he climbed into the car.

Bai Tiejun's hands trembled, and he took a deep breath. "I can't be a traitor to the sect, let's go!"

Rumble!

Three scouts wearing night vision devices began playing a game of cat and mouse in the jungle in the dead of night. ===== CHAPTER 68 =====
