Chapter 177 The military soul is in the heart
During those days, people left every day.
Every morning, cars come to pick people up and go to the new company.
Or they may be discharged from the army, transferred to the station.
I have never tried it in Li Zheng's life experience.
He is no stranger to parting.
When I woke up in the hospital, my grandmother and the doctor kept it hidden from me and did not tell him the truth about his parents' death.
It was not until ten days later that his body recovered and the matter could not be hidden. A group of people entered the ward and stood in front of the window. Grandma sat down and hesitated for a long time, and cried before she could even say anything.
Also, when he was in high school, he was admitted to college.
After the college entrance examination, several of the students who were good at gathering together, made an exception and drank beer, looking forward to the future. Someone shouted: "Ten years later, no matter where we are, we must remember this time and get together again!"
But this time it's different.
When parents leave, it is a scar in their hearts, permanent.
Classmates parted ways. It was a can of buried aged wine in my memory, and it would be opened one day sooner or later.
But this time, watching a comrade leave, I have to repeat the same experience every day, as if I was lingchi.
In fact, he felt that Hou Jun was even more uncomfortable.
All the soldiers in the row were brought out by him, both old and new.
Speaking of feelings, he has a deeper relationship with those soldiers than Li Zhenglai.
Especially the day the company commander Xie Dong left, the whole company came out to see him off.
Actually, I don’t know if it’s all the company, because half of the people have left.
After seeing Xie Dong off, Hou Jun blew the gathering whistle again, took the remaining recruits from the ranks out, and ran around the mountain road with his backpacks on his back.
Ten kilometers are very tired, and the recruits have suffered enough.
When he ran to the end, he had a slightly poor physical fitness like the little white-faced Jiang Huideng who was almost carried back by someone.
But no one objected.
No one complains.
It’s good to run ten kilometers.
This is the first time that Li Zheng thought this was not bad.
After all, I am tired and sleepy, and I don’t have so much energy to think about it when I come back.
During those days, the amount of training was several times larger than before.
After physical fitness, you will be able to do professional work, and after professional practice, you will be able to do physical fitness. Otherwise, you will be able to carry all kinds of weapons and various elements. Members of the sniper squad like Li Zheng must wear rice grains and also recite sniper formulas.
That day, Hou Jun took his platoon, which had only one-third of his troops, to the shooting range to practice guns. The soldiers were practicing. He sat in the grass behind him and watched quietly.
Suddenly, he felt someone behind him, and subconsciously turned around, but saw the solemnity.
His eyes were around Zhuangyan and looked into the distance.
The solemn jeep was parked on the grass at the entrance of the shooting range, and he didn't see the driver. It was obvious that he drove over by himself.
Zhuang Yan didn't say anything, and sat down next to Hou Jun.
"How long has the rifle been practiced?"
Hou Jun did not expect Zhuang Yan to ask him such a question directly, and he was slightly stunned and replied: "I have practiced three times."
Zhuangyan said: "For ordinary infantry companies, it's enough, but the elite infantry companies are not up to standard. Do you know how many rifles there are to practice in elite infantry?"
Hou Jun said: "Five."
Zhuang Yan shook her head: "Actually there are six in total. One is used for the assessment of special snatchers, but most people cannot use it."
Hou Jun said: "Which 400-meter half-body target are you talking about and which shooting exercise is the 250-meter machine gun target?"
Nodded solemnly.
Hou Jun also said: "The excellent rate of these soldiers in the three shooting exercises has reached more than 90%. Your leaders are really good at picking people."
The implication is that the soldiers left behind by the Fourth Company this time are not only new recruits with short-lived skills, but also those who are well-trained.
Zhuangyan said: "Did you know we are going to change the special combat brigade?"
Hou Jun nodded, and he found that Zhuangyan used the word "we". Obviously, there was a bit of deep meaning here, but it was not convenient for him to ask.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhuang Yan asked again: "Do you like being a special forces soldier?"
Hou Junbing did not answer head-on, but raised his chin to the new recruits in the distance and said, "The new recruits like it very much."
After saying that, he remembered something and asked again: "We have less than half of our team left now. Which company has merged with us?"
Zhuang Yan suddenly stood up, patted the grass clippings stuck to his body, and said to Hou Jun: "Don't worry, you are good soldiers, I keep them for great use. As for whom you merge with, you will soon know. After the merger, you will still be the leader of the platoon. But promise me that special operations are different from infantry transfers. The company commander and deputy company commander who come here are old special operations. You have to put away your little veteran airs and participate in training like a new recruit. If you ask for advice humbly, it is not embarrassing."
After saying that, he turned around and left without looking back.
The solemn words made Hou Jun feel a little confused.
After he went back, he savored it carefully and found that Zhuangyan's words were indeed very reasonable.
He is not familiar with the special operations major. He has been exposed to some of the special forces before. He encountered soldiers from other special forces brigades during training camps, and he was discussing purely about interest.
Now I have to change the special operations brigade. If I am still the acting platoon leader, I have to understand this special operations profession in any case.
Otherwise, it would be a little bit of a loss of face. Why did the people in the Fourth Company just pee?
He could not accept this.
After all the people who were about to leave on the list were exposed, the first news came first, and the candidate for the brigade commander of the Special Forces Brigade was announced, and Zhuang Yan was appointed.
This time, Hou Jun understood why Zhuangyan used the word "we".
If Zhuang Yan used to be just an officer sent by his superiors to the E Division, then now he is the brigade commander of the D Group Special Operations Brigade.
The words "you will know soon" by Zhuang Yan is not a fool at all.
On the third day after talking to Hou Jun, a row of soldiers had just returned from running five kilometers. From a distance, they saw several large trucks parked on the cement road next to the Fourth Company's basketball court. Many soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms and carrying large backpacks were carrying various supplies and luggage from the car.
"Plane leader, look!"
Fatty Wei was the first to scream.
“Someone is moving into our company.”
He led his men to the side of the basketball court, and Hou Jun recognized one of the corporals at a glance.
"King Liu Tian!"
He shouted at the corporal.
"Why are you here?"
The man turned around and saw that it was Hou Jun and said with a smile: "Platform Commander Hou, we will be comrades in a company in the future!"
"What!?"
Hou Jun was a little confused.
King Liu Tianwang is the nickname of this corporal. In fact, his name is Liu Yihui, and he is a squad leader of the armed reconnaissance company of the former E Division Reconnaissance Battalion.
Because he looks pretty good and often claims to be handsome, he was joked by his teammates when he was in the top training team and called him "King Liu Tian" which means he is so handsome as Andy Lau.
Liu Yihui walked up to Hou Jun, looked at Hou Jun who was sweating profusely, and pointed to the direction of the barracks: "We will live in one barracks from now on, and we will definitely be comrades in a company!"
