Chapter 1192 Return to Class
Xu Sanduo settled down in the Seventh Company and was able to gain a foothold.

Because of his spirit.

In the Seventh Company, apart from sleeping, eating and other activities, Xu Sanduo only did two things: training and reading.

He was the most enthusiastic in training, and his attitude was obvious. When he came to the Seventh Company, people never heard him complain. He would train with Wang Yan every day and go to bed very late. The next day, he would go to training again with great energy.

Xu Sanduo also made rapid progress in the various professional knowledge that scouts needed to learn. Because he had a good memory and learned many things by heart, even if he didn't understand something, Wang Yan would explain it to him and he would understand it.

In addition, Wang Yan also gave him a list of books and asked him to read them to improve his cultural level. With culture, people's minds will be more active.

Xu Sanduo's progress was rapid, much faster than when he was in the recruit company. Because relatively speaking, now he actually had more time, otherwise there would not be the saying that it would be easy to join the company.

Also because he had more time, Xu Sanduo had more time to make progress.

In just one month, Xu Sanduo had enriched his knowledge and received special training as a scout. He made great progress and surpassed Bai Tiejun in the assessment, becoming a qualified soldier of the third squad of the seventh company.

This was mainly because Xu Sanduo's physical fitness was not bad to begin with. Being in Class 5 was equivalent to further studies. He carried stones every day, going back and forth for several kilometers several times a day. It was impossible for him to be in poor physical condition.

In addition, he also practices push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, etc., and his abilities in all aspects are very good.

As I said, physical fitness is the foundation of tactics. His physical fitness is sufficient, and learning tactics is just a matter of proficiency. As for shooting, except for the talented sharpshooters, the recognized way in the army is to use a large number of bullets and shoot one by one.

Xu Sanduo's shooting talent was actually not bad. Although not the best, it was also at the upper level. The 7th Company had plenty of live ammunition, so Xu Sanduo's level naturally improved.

This, coupled with his excellent memory, made rapid progress a matter of course.

Xu Sanduo likes to say three sentences. One is "Is there any meaning?" This is what Lao Ma told him. He remembered it and often asked others and himself. Another is "As long as you do your best, you are a good soldier." This is what Wang Yan told him. He often uses this sentence to respond to others' misunderstanding of him. The last sentence is "I can do it." This is also what Wang Yan told him. He secretly told Wang Yan and always recited these three words secretly.

Perhaps Xu Sanduo still didn’t know what a good soldier was, and didn’t know whether he was a good soldier, but he believed what Wang Yan said and did it, so he became a good soldier.

Xu Sanduo's performance was very good, and Gao Cheng was naturally very satisfied. He was no longer upset or unhappy when he saw Xu Sanduo, as he used to be. Instead, he could smile and joke with Xu Sanduo, and show some concern.

At this point, Xu Sanduo's personal military qualities, combat skills, and his own situation are no longer the same as before, far exceeding the original drama.

And all this was just because Wang Yan recognized him in advance and said he could do it...

The chariots were speeding, the tanks were galloping, the machine guns were roaring, and the tanks' main guns were whistling shells. The dust raised by the numerous chariots and tanks covered the sky at night.

In this cold late autumn, taking a deep breath, besides being cold, there is smoke and dust, and the tip of your nose is filled with the smoke of gunpowder.

The rear door of the tank opened, and Xu Sanduo was the first to jump out of the car, puffing out his mouth and breathing deeply.

Bai Tiejun followed him and patted his forehead on the back, saying with a smile: "Good job, Sanduo, you have made progress today."

Gan Xiaoning looked disdainful and said, "What are you talking about him? How much better are you than him? When you first came here, you vomited for more than a month before you got used to it."

"Am I okay now?"

Wu Liuyi came over and kicked Bai Tiejun: "You are the only one who has no future, and you have the nerve to say that Sanduo has a future? He has only been here for a month, and except for his shooting score which is slightly worse than yours, he has surpassed you in other subjects. His shooting score is getting better and better, but you are the last in the class in all subjects. How dare you say that?"

Bai Tiejun chuckled: "Why should I be embarrassed? No matter where it is placed, there must be a last one. In order to prevent my dear comrades from feeling bad, let me bear all the sorrows. Ah, what a great sentiment this is."

"Get out of here!" Shi Jin walked over and kicked Bai Tiejun aside.

Bai Tiejun fell to the side exaggeratedly, and was then knocked to the ground by Gan Xiaoning. Bai Tiejun simply sat there leaning against the chariot, unwilling to move, feeling very lazy.

"How is it? Do you feel okay?" Wang Yan asked Xu Sanduo.

"That's great. After two more trips I'll be the same as you." Xu Sanduo smiled innocently.

There are too many people, the air is not circulating well, and the road is bumpy, which can easily make people feel nauseous and vomit.

When Wang Yan was a child, he traveled between his hometown and the city by bus. This was a policy introduced by the state to facilitate the travel of the people in villages and towns. It was a personal contract, government supervision, and certain subsidies. It was a very profitable business ten years ago.

He would vomit every time he got in a car. It was much better in the summer, because the car would speed up and there would always be some wind to circulate the air in the car, which would make people feel relieved. It was especially uncomfortable in the winter, because the car windows were not open and the smell in the car was even more complicated. At this time, opening the car window a little and breathing in the cold air was the best antidote. After he grew up, he never vomited again.

Of course, a chariot is more difficult to ride than a crowded bus. The interior space is not spacious, and the speed is fast. There are not many flat roads to travel on, but all are bumpy. Occasionally, it will be thrown at least three meters away, which is very wild. So it takes a longer time to adapt, which is understandable.

Wang Yan nodded with a smile and patted Xu Sanduo on the shoulder: "Not bad, you have made progress."

Shi Jin was pleased: "You have made more than just progress, you have made great progress. It's only been a month, and you have basically reached the requirements of our class. In another month, you will be better than Wang Yan, right? Sanduo, I told you that you can do it. Practice hard and surpass Wang Yan to show us. This kid won't be so rampant."

"Squad leader, I'm criticizing you. You said you wanted to encourage me, so go ahead, but you had to drag me out and step on me. I feel so wronged. You said I'm such an honest person, but you made me so arrogant. I feel more wronged than Dou E. Be careful that I will cry our tank to pieces."

Wu Liuyi laughed: "Is it the tank that you are crying about falling apart? If you can really make it fall apart, then it will be those people in the equipment department who will fall apart."

Xu Sanduo grinned foolishly and said, "I can't compare to Wang Yan. He is too powerful. I will never be able to catch up with him in my lifetime."

"You have to have ambition." Gao Cheng came over and patted Xu Sanduo on the shoulder. "What's so great about Wang Yan? You have to aim to be more awesome than him. If I can't beat you, I won't admit defeat. That's what a good soldier does."

"Yes, Captain! I don't accept it."

Gao Cheng was amused: "Are you dissatisfied with Wang Yan, or are you dissatisfied with me as the company commander?"

"I'm not, I..."

"Alright, alright." Gao Cheng waved his hands. He knew Xu Sanduo was a little dazed, so he didn't care. He shouted, "All right. Today's training ends here. Let's set up camp here..."

Even though this was the procedure every time and the soldiers knew what they should do, Gao Cheng still kept talking.

Being a soldier is not a creative thing, because it does not require creativity, let alone the most basic soldiers. It is a procedural and formulaic thing. It is to practice various combat skills into instincts through repeated training day after day, and to deeply engrave various combat matters into memory. In this way, when it is time to be pulled out to fight, the impact of panic and tension will be minimized to the greatest extent, and the original combat effectiveness will be maximized.

So repeat, repeat, repeat...

After Gao Cheng finished speaking, Wang Yan came up to him and said, "Captain, can I discuss something with you?"

Gao Cheng took a quick glance and let Wang Yan light a cigarette for him: "Speak."

"Xu Sanduo has been out for a month now. It just so happens that he is here again. Let's take Xu Sanduo back to Class 5 to see the old squad leader."

"How can I stop you? The car is right there, drive it yourself, go after dinner, and come back early."

"We'll be over there soon. You can eat the rations here, and then you can have some hot noodles at the fifth squad." Wang Yan waved his hand, and then called Xu Sanduo, Shi Jin, and Wu Liuyi to get on the car with the rations.

Everyone was familiar with each other, and Shi Jin and Wu Liuyi had nothing to do, so they just went together.

As for the rations, it was because the supplies of Class 5 were limited, enough for them to eat, and there would definitely be a lot of surplus, but it was not certain whether it was enough for four people to eat. In addition, today's rations included canned braised beef and braised pork, and an additional dish.

By the time the four of them arrived at Class 5, half an hour had passed.

He parked the car and went straight into the classroom.

As soon as I entered, I saw steam rising from the kitchen. Lao Ma rolled up his sleeves and was busy making noodles. Next to him was a covered pot of stewed meat.

"Please serve more noodles. There are four mouths to feed."

Hearing the voices, Lao Ma turned around with a start, and seeing the four people, he angrily scolded: "You guys are really, you scared me to death. Don't you know that scaring others will scare them to death?"

"Your old squad leader is afraid of ghosts and gods, what is there to be afraid of?" Wang Yan smiled and waved his hands, "I say, old squad leader, you are too good to them, how can they enjoy it when the squad leader cooks for them?"

"Hey, we lost the poker game, so we have to admit defeat."

Seeing that the eyes of several people were not right, Lao Ma said quickly, "We are not going back again. You said that the road has been repaired. The day is so long, we have to do something to kill time. But now we are still in good condition. Come on, come on, go inside and you will know. The housekeeping will tell everything."

Lao Ma led a few people into the dormitory. The first thing they saw was that it was clean and tidy. However, the light bulb was not bright enough, so it looked a little dirty.

Lao Wei, Li Meng, and Xue Lin were playing Landlord at the table, waiting for dinner to start. They had heard the noise a long time ago, and they all stood up in a row.

"Hey, Sanduo is back." Old Wei greeted him warmly, "How are you? Is it good in the Seventh Company?"

Xu Sanduo nodded, showing his neat white teeth: "They are all very nice to me."

Li Meng said: "What you said is that Wang Yan is right there, and your company commander has to give him face, who can be mean to you?"

Wang Yan waved his hand: "I am a soldier, I don't have that much face."

Old Ma patted Xu Sanduo on the shoulder and said, "Li Meng is a dog that can't spit out ivory, and he wants to be a writer. How are you, are you all in charge of the housework? Let me tell you, the changes in Class 5 are thorough. It doesn't mean that just because Xu Sanduo was transferred, we will go back. I'm criticizing you, but you can't always look at people with old eyes."

Wu Liuyi smiled and said, "The old squad leader is right. We should criticize ourselves and reflect on ourselves. It's still good this way. I still remember when I first came here. I was too embarrassed to talk about your internal affairs at that time."

Lao Ma laughed: "Okay, you guys keep chatting, I'll go and mix some dough and make more noodles."

"Here are the military rations. There are canned food in them. Please heat them up." Wang Yan handed the things he was carrying over. "You don't need help, do you?"

"If you want to help, come and help. If you don't want to help, don't say anything." Lao Ma was not polite.

"I'll go." Shi Jin volunteered, took off his coat immediately, and followed Lao Ma to the kitchen to start working.

Wang Yan and others were chatting in the dormitory, mainly the conversation between the other three people from Class 5 and Xu Sanduo. Wang Yan and Wu Liuyi were smoking and listening to the fun.

It was obvious that Lao Wei and the others were very happy that Xu Sanduo returned to Class 5, and they kept laughing.

After a while, Lao Ma and Shi Jin brought noodles, braised meat, and canned meat. Xu Sanduo ran to get bowls and chopsticks for everyone, and also added raw garlic. Just like that, the eight people gathered around the table and ate noodles, which smelled very good.

Of course, the topic of conversation was still Xu Sanduo, and Lao Ma once again asked about Xu Sanduo's life in the Seventh Company. Xu Sanduo did not get tired of talking about it and repeated every detail.

"Okay, from the day you came, I knew you were a good soldier, better than all of us..." Lao Ma nodded with relief, but there was a hint of sadness in his tone.

Wang Yan asked, "Old squad leader, you are indeed a man of high moral character. If you can get this done, you will definitely be able to sign a four-term contract."

Lao Ma came one year earlier than Shi Jin, and this year is his last year.

"Hey, why are you talking about that? This is what I should do. The road was built by Xu Sanduo, and we were all influenced by him. If I take credit for his contribution, am I still a human being?"

Old Ma shook his head and said with a smile, "This is good. If I really had to stay in the army, I would be embarrassed. I have been idle for the past few years. I want to pick it up again, but I am old and my health is not as good as before. Take my waist for example. It hurts when I lift something heavy. When I lie on the bed, the pain in my waist is sore..."

He talked about his physical condition, was silent for a moment, and then said, "To be honest, I have already submitted my discharge report..."

The others were silent, and Xu Sanduo said, "Squad leader, it's great that you are in the army. You are a good soldier."

"I used to be a good soldier, but now I am not. Didn't you hear me? You are not physically fit."

Wang Yan asked, "What are you going to do after you retire? How about resettlement?"

"The instructor talked to me about becoming a policeman, but he didn't know what it would be like. If that doesn't work out, I can open a restaurant to make a living, no problem. Okay, let's not talk about this, there will be a day like this, there's nothing to say. Even if you are promoted to an officer, you will still have a time to retire, it's only a matter of time. Eat everything, eat everything. When I go back, I'll open a noodle shop..."

Lao Ma himself livened up the atmosphere, and Wang Yan cooperated attentively. Everyone tacitly agreed not to feel sad, and in a blink of an eye, they became happy again...

I would like to express my daily gratitude to the good brothers who vote monthly, recommend and read quietly for their strong support!
