Chapter 5 Old Cannon
"Brothers, I have inquired clearly."

"Anan, what have you found out?"

"Tell me carefully."

······
lunch break.

The three of Xiwa and Xiaozhuang were free to practice the parallel bars on the playground. Lu Nan walked over with a mysterious face, chewing gum in his mouth, looking like he was pulling.

He took out two pieces of chewing gum from his pocket and handed them to them. Lu Nan glanced at the recruits who had undergone extra training around him, and put his arms around the shoulders of the two of them together.

Lu Nan said softly: "There is a squad leader in the Second Company of Recruits, who is from my hometown. I bought two packs of Hongtashan to help him establish a relationship. You are the only ones from my hometown who told me about Lao Pao."

"Say it!" Xiao Zhuang asked eagerly.

"Old Pao's squad is the pacesetter squad of the whole regiment every year, and so far, no one has escaped from Lao Pao's clutches, so we have to obediently confess to him. What's more, Lao Pao has class feelings, and there is nothing to eat at home. To be a soldier."

"What do you mean?" Xiwa was puzzled.

Xiao Zhuang said dully: "I just don't like city soldiers, and when I meet city soldiers, I will punish them to death."

"How can this be?"

"Psychological rebellion, you don't know."

Lu Nan then said: "There is also Wang Xiaoya, do you know where he went?"

"Hey!" Xiao Zhuang asked back: "If you don't tell me, I will almost forget about him. Where is Wang Xiaoya going now?"

"He was dismissed because he was physically unqualified."

Xiwa's face changed when she heard this: "Why did you retire? A soldier has food and clothing, and he can save face when he returns to the village. Such a good thing, what is he going to do with his retreat? If I quit, my parents will probably beat me to death. "

For rural soldiers like Xiwa, there is food and clothing, and no monthly allowance of 20 yuan, and the regional government will distribute rice and oil to their families.This is indeed a rare and good option for rural youths who enter the city to work and are struggling due to various policy reasons.

"Hi."

Lu Nan held the parallel bars and said: "We don't care about other people's affairs. I ran ten kilometers yesterday afternoon, and I was taken by Lao Pao to study the internal regulations in surprise at night. I have to continue at night. Even the politicians will come to class tomorrow. Pao said that let us speak actively.

In particular, there is a college student in our eighth class with a high level of education. I want to know how you, a college student, drive our interest in learning. "

Xiaozhuang smiled. He really has no pressure on running, and even less on studying.Everyone has a share of the old cannon extra meal. The new recruits run two kilometers on the first day, and the old cannon runs five kilometers on the strength. The fixed eight kilometers a day is unshakeable, unless there is thunder and rain.

"correct!"

Xiao Zhuang asked suddenly: "The recruits came for inspection, and all the money was handed over for safekeeping. Where did you get the money to buy cigarettes and bribe your fellow villagers?"

Lu Nan chuckled: "The platoon leader is also my hometown."

"Damn."

"Hehehe~~~"

Lu Nan turned his head to look at the recruits around him, a group of people were laughing and talking non-stop.Subconsciously pretending to be a poker face, only to realize that he is also a recruit.

Next door to the training ground is the regimental family's family courtyard. A few women walked out of the upstairs balcony. The recruits present immediately suppressed their smiles and began to sharpen their iron desperately.The family members upstairs are probably used to this annual 'scenery' and smiled kindly.

······
In the afternoon, the day's training ends.

After taking a shower, Lu Nan walked towards the dormitory with the washbasin in his hand, and bumped into Lao Pao head-on.

There was an indelible smile on the corner of Lao Pao's mouth, he didn't know what he was having fun with.

Lu Nan stood at attention with a washbasin in his hand: "Hello, squad leader!"

"Ah."

"Welcome the squad leader to come and inspect the internal affairs."

Lu Nan spoke loudly and tipped off the people in the room.The old Pao who came over had a bad look on his face. As an old scout, he knew Lu Nan's playfulness.

Walking into the dormitory with Lao Pao, everyone in the room put down their things, stood at attention one by one, and saluted Lao Pao.

"Hello squad leader."

"Ah."

Lao Pao looked at the people in the room, walked around the personal belongings table twice, picked up Xiwa's novel 'The King of Soldiers' on the table, opened it, and then put it down again.

"A group of bears still want to be kings of soldiers. Their courage is commendable. Whose?"

Xiwa stood at attention and saluted and said, "Report to the class monitor, mine. But Anan said he liked to read it, so I lent him the book. If you want to read it, ask Anan."

Standing at the door, Lu Nan's face was as green as a fly, Xiwa!hi baby!Why are you so naive, Tiandi Conscience touched two pages of the book cover by himself, studying the internal regulations every day.

Hearing this, Lao Pao turned his head to look at Lu Nan: "Do you like reading this book?"

"It's just to pass the time in my spare time, I can't say I like it much."

"I want to be a soldier king..."

Lao Pao was silent for a moment and suddenly shouted: "Since you want to be a soldier king, you must have the spirit of never being discouraged and rock-solid courage! Since you want to be a soldier king so much, I will give you a chance to show yourself now." A chance for spirit and courage!"

Xiwa blushed, "Report to the monitor, I want to participate!"

In the dormitory, Xiwa enthusiastically signed up.Lao Pao glanced at Xiao Zhuang, who puffed up his chest to express his disapproval, and Lao Pao nodded in relief.

"Report to monitor..."

"Squad leader~~~"

"..."

The dormitory was boiling. In terms of mobilization ability, as the backbone of the grassroots army, the old cannon's ability is beyond doubt.Then he fixed his eyes on Lu Nan, Lu Nan scratched his head, he couldn't drag the class back.

"Squad leader, count me in."

"it is good!"

For the first time, Lao Pao showed a sincere smile on his serious face.

10 minute later.

Lu Nan raised his head to look at the warm sun that was about to set in the sky, tightened the labor protection gloves on his hand, lowered his head and sighed, and the comrades around him looked at Lao Pao in confusion.

The toilet in the family building next door was blocked because there were too many debris in the sewage tank and it needed to be cleaned.

Coincidentally, Lao Pao didn't know why he passed by, so he volunteered to take over the job of cleaning the sewage tank.

Lao Pao is a veteran in the eyes of the general public and an old squad leader with an army style.When the eighth class of recruits had no way to start, he had already put on labor protection gloves and pulled up the cement slab on the sewage tank.

The family members and women comrades stood aside, laughing and laughing, and verbally praised Class [-] for being willing to take the job. The praise never stopped, and the smile on the corners of their mouths never restrained.

Pulling up the cement board, Lao Pao began to assign work.

The eighth class was divided into two groups, one group salvaged the sundries in the sewage tank, and the second group used washbasins to spread the sewage into the small vegetable garden not far away, as well as the roadside green belt.

There are three sections of the sewage tank, one section of sewage tank, one section of sewage tank, and one section of sedimentation tank.

"Are you afraid?" Lao Pao preached to the recruits who had volunteered just now but were now depressed.

Lu Nan looked up, and then poked the connecting pipe with a bamboo pole.Xiao Zhuang's face was cold, Lao Pao was digging manure, he didn't want to admit cowardly now, scooped up a pot of green soup with his washbasin, and poured it into the vegetable garden according to the request of the family elder sister.

The one who did the most work was Xiwa, who had a great time scooping up pots of mung bean soup, three or four per person.

I don't know if Lao Pao did it on purpose or not, so he grabbed three washbasins, and Lu Nan, Xiaozhuang, and Xiwa didn't escape from the washbasins of the three of them.

Xiao Zhuang saw that Lu Nan poked it with a bamboo pole, so he walked over and said confidently: "The sewage tank is blocked, usually at the slag discharge port of the sewage tank.

If you poke in the second-stage sedimentation tank, it won't work overnight.So it is necessary to dredge a section of sewage pool first.If you see that the sewage inlet into the sewage pool is not discharging sewage, then the pipe connecting the family building must be blocked. "

Lu Nan, whose face was covered with water stains from being poked with a bamboo pole, slapped his head, and immediately reported the incident to Lao Pao.

Patronizing on digging dung and accepting praise from family members, I even forgot this common sense question.
