Chapter 6 Queues and Housekeeping Training
"Brother Dahai, I want to go home. Can we run away?"
A pitiful voice cried to me in tears.
"You don't want to live anymore! Escape? Can you escape there? Do you want to run into the deep mountains and forests to feed the tigers?"
I was shocked. The boy's idea was so creative. I glanced at the bed against the wall in the distance and persuaded him with a repressive attitude: "Peng Zheng, don't you think about what you are doing when you come to the army? You are here to exercise. It's okay, you can't die. Just survive these three months!"
The army's barracks are actually similar to the dormitory I was studying, but it was a little more exaggerated. One room is about the size of one classroom for us, and the other is divided into bunks in the house, so there are more than 30 new recruits. The squad leader of the new recruits platoon eats and sleeps with us, which is not so easy to manage, but rather convenient for them to torture people.
I was assigned to the third platoon of the recruits company. Of course, the platoon leader was Qiao Chunnan. Now we have secretly nicknamed "King Qiao Yan". In this hell-like barracks, he is the king here, and the King of Yama who is even more difficult than the little ghost. The little brat Peng Zheng was very unfortunate and was assigned to share the hardships with me, and just slept on the upper bunk that leaned against me.
"But, I... can't stand it for a day... Woo woo!"
This kid is a child. Facing everything in front of him, when have we ever suffered such suffering as spoiled in the city? He whimpered and cried beside the bed beside me.
"I have to bear it if I can't stand it. The more King Qiao Yan stared at me, the less I became!" I gritted my teeth and cheered him up and said, "I don't believe that I can't fight..."
"Who! Who is still talking when he is bedtime? Do you don't want to sleep? If you don't want to sleep, go out for ten laps before coming back!"
When I said Cao Cao, Cao Cao would arrive! The voice of "King Qiao Yan" roared out from the corner of the wall, and then a huge flashlight came over. I gritted my teeth and took advantage of the night that no one could see me. I glared in that direction and stopped the sound. Peng Zheng was so scared that he didn't even cry.
This is the first week of the recruit company, and I have begun to hate this place. Oh my God! This is where people stay. This is simply a purgatory for living people to suffer. In addition to the idea of perseverance in my mind, I no longer have any happiness to find, sacrifice my life to the country, and treat death as if I am home (Cao Zhi) is my portrayal at this moment!
Standing in the military posture, I am very glad that our recruits train in winter, and we rarely have the opportunity to enjoy the enthusiasm of the sun, but let you stand motionlessly for two hours, and you will realize that standing is not that simple.
In addition, when there are "King Qiao Yan" who screamed all over the place, thrusting his chest, sucking his abdomen, and clamping his butt, you feel even more like being tortured. No wonder Peng Zheng couldn't stand it anymore.
King Qiao Yan held a long vertical stick in his hand and suddenly pulled it down on someone's arm. If it was opened, it means you didn't use force. He used his knee to bend the knee behind you, but it was not light or heavy. If you bend your legs, it means your legs were not used to force it. Then, he gently pinched your butt while you were not paying attention. The soft and fat flesh on one hand means you did not clamp your butt.
Well, you will be lucky enough to win the prize. Your reward is to continue standing for two hours. If the time happens to be the order to eat, I'm sorry! You are ready to save some food for our hard-working army.
"Turn your head, go left, go left! I'll let you boy go right!"
Of course, I was particularly taken care of by the 'nail house' that made King Qiao Yan pay attention from the beginning. The requirements were so strict that it made people's brain numb. He looked at him with a smile and said, "Okay! I'll let you go to the right to see if I can make you over."
It’s not that I don’t listen to him. After all, I now understand that although he has the intention to target me, what he teaches is all necessary as a qualified soldier. But maybe I am used to shaking my head in the place, and maybe I have forgotten the central position in my head, so I can’t put it right. I feel a little cold when I see the sinister appearance of "King Qiao Yan".
So, my brand new Celtic uniform was honored to be visited by three pins. The needle that shone through the collar and shone cold light in the sun was facing my neck. As long as my head was too tilted, the needle would ruthlessly pierce into my flesh. After using this method, although I had greeted all the eighteen generations of ancestors of "King Qiao Yan" in my heart, after two days, I stopped turning my head.
I feel even more depressed when I walk straight and walk straight. My body must be in a straight line, my legs must be lifted above forty-five degrees, and I cannot be stretched out my legs. It is easy to say, but difficult to do.
"Walk in a straight line, yo... 2... 1, yo 21..."
"Ha ha!"
The comrades in the new recruit company laughed because our cute little kid, Comrade Peng Zheng, did not have a big twitch, but he actually left the "shunguai" (that is, he raised his left hand when kicking the left leg, and raised his right hand when kicking the right leg). This way of walking is so tight that it is difficult for him to notice, but if the people around him see it, he will bend over.
Of course, such creative actions have been recognized by "King Qiao Yan". The result of recognition is that after we finished training, we should train on the training ground for another two hours. Seeing Xiao Pengzheng crying, I dare say that his father wanted to see that the face of "King Qiao Yan" that deserves a beating will surely bloom, but what's the use of this? This is the army, this is a world that makes you call it "Daily Day" and is called "Daily Earth and Earth".
Fortunately, I was with Peng Zheng that day, because when practicing staging decomposition, each movement had to be maintained for five minutes. What's even more annoying is that my legs were raised high, at least forty-five degrees. I always encouraged myself to do better, so I lifted it to 90 degrees. Unfortunately, I was discovered by the "King Qiao Yan" who was very careful. He praised me and rewarded me for maintaining this posture for two hours. In order to test my endurance, he hung two bricks on my feet. After I finished working overtime, I sat on the ground, feeling that neither of my legs belonged to me, and I recovered twenty minutes later.
There is also internal affairs, of course, the main thing is the stacked military quilt. When I lift the stacked military quilt, I have a headache because this life is so artistic.
"King Qiao Yan" only took one or two minutes to stack a "tofu block", but the recruits' quilts were all new. The cotton wool had not slept for a long time, and it was loose inside. You had to press him to almost no air inside, and then smooth it with your hands to successfully stack it.
But is this easy? I feel that this requires us to press a sponge into a piece of paper incredible.
But there was no way, we still had to find a way to do it. Therefore, I accepted a solution from "King Qiao Yan", which was to wet my back and let the cotton wool inside solidify with moisture, and then I could fold the "stinky tofu". For this reason, I slept on my back for a week, and the inside of the back was cold. It was strange that my body was so good that I hadn't gotten sick yet.
The little Peng Zheng, who is a little bitch, is even more amazing. Whenever someone checks, the stinky brat asks someone to fold the "stinky tofu", and he simply never touches the "stinky tofu". When he goes to bed at night, he finds reasons to go to bed late. Whether it is training or reciting the order, he is when the platoon leader checks the shop and sneaks into my quilt to keep warm when the person is not paying attention!
Mom! This kid likes to sleep in his arms, and he holds me so tightly, making me wonder if he has a hobby of "gay" at a young age. I really admire YOU.
