Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Chapter 23 Conscription
Li Jin's painting lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon, and he was relieved after painting all the props.

At this time, Xu Qingfeng also bought something and brought it back to the barracks.

"Platoon leader, everything is ready." Xu Qingfeng came to Li Jin's room and said.

"Distribute the cloth to the women and let them start making military uniforms," ​​Li Jin said.

"Yes." Xu Qingfeng turned and left.

In the middle of the night, Li Jin went out to patrol as usual, and then went back to his room to sleep.

Early the next morning, Li Jin took twenty veterans to the mountains about four miles away from Wujia Village. They brought the tools for cutting trees.

Several squad leaders also went to the village to recruit soldiers according to the plan.

In Songjia Village, after the second squad leader Zhao Ming came to the entrance of the village, almost all the young people in the village were waiting here.

Village head Song even moved the table to wait for Zhao Ming.

"Squad Leader Zhao, you are here. These are all people in the village who want to be soldiers. They are all qualified. The conscription can start now." Village Leader Song smiled, the wrinkles on his face squeezed together.

"Then let's get started, all lined up." Zhao Ming said.

Soon, the conscription of Songjia Village began.

"Name."

"Song Liang."

"How many people are in the family?"

"Four."

"Parents' names and brothers' names."

"........."

Conscription is going on, and all young people want to join the army.

At the back, a young man rushed over.

"I want to be a soldier too!" The boy looked fifteen or sixteen years old, very young, and very thin due to malnutrition.

"Stinky boy, you are the only child in your family. If you die on the battlefield, how can I explain to your parents? Get out!" Village Chief Song immediately yelled.

The boy was his only son, so he didn't include him in the list of conscription targets.

"Young man, we don't recruit only children, you should go back." Zhao Ming put down his pen and said.

"Why don't you recruit me? I also have passion. I also want to defend my family and country, and I want to fight devils!" the young man shouted excitedly.

"I told you not to recruit an only child, so you can't let your family lose all children and grandchildren." Zhao Ming said slowly.

"That's my family's business. I just want to be a soldier. Please let me join the army!" said the boy.

"No way, no way!" Zhao Ming shook his head, no matter what he said, he would not agree to recruit. If he dared to recruit, he would be punished by the platoon leader when he went back, and the boy would also be sent back!

If the boy's parents were killed by devils and he was the only one left, Zhao Ming might agree, but since his parents are still alive, it is impossible to recruit him.

The greatest tragedy in the world is that a white-haired person gives a black-haired person!

"Have you ever thought about what will happen to your parents if you die in battle?! You are the only child in the family. Do you think your parents can survive after you die?" Zhao Ming continued.

"This..." The young man fell silent. If he died, his parents might cry all day long and eventually die of illness.

"It's a good thing that you have a passion for defending your family and the country. If you are not the only son, I am willing to recruit you as a soldier, but if you are the only son, I cannot recruit you.

Otherwise, then I am doing something harmful to the sky, and I will be struck by lightning! " Zhao Ming said.

People of the older generation, the greatest wish in life is to have a thought. If this thought is gone, then they will not live long, and they cannot let other people's thoughts be ruined.

The boy was speechless.

"Go back. When you get married and have children, you are thinking about joining the army." Zhao Ming said.

"Take him away." Village Chief Song directly ordered someone to take the boy away.

And this kind of thing happened in Hejia Village, but they were all rejected.

.........

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Jin returned to the barracks with the veterans.

In the open space of the barracks, there were already more than 100 people standing. They didn't wear military uniforms. There were teenagers and young people, and they were all standing neatly now.

"Platoon leader!" Zhao Ming and the other two squad leaders ran forward to salute Li Jin.

"It seems that the conscription went well." Li Jin said with a smile.

"We have all completed the task satisfactorily, all of us are qualified, and none of us is an only child!" The three said in unison.

"Well, very good." Li Jin nodded.

"Platoon leader, talk to the recruits and let them know you." Zhao Ming said.

"Okay." Li Jin nodded, and then walked in front of everyone.

"Get to know me, my name is Li Jin, and I am your platoon leader. I will be the biggest here in the future.

You must obey my orders unconditionally. When I give an order, don't ask why, just execute it.

If you can't do it, you can leave now, I don't need disobedient soldiers! " Li Jin said with a serious face.

After the words fell, all the recruits fell silent.

"Then if you tell us to eat shit, will we eat it too!" At this time, someone said.

As soon as the words came out, many people were amused.

"Who is talking!!!" Li Jin shouted loudly.

At that moment, everyone was frightened.

Zhao Ming and several monitors were discussing in low voices.

"The words of the platoon leader have basically not changed." Zhao Ming said in a low voice.

"Indeed, but the effect is very good. You can see that they were frightened for a while." The second squad leader also said.

They were also stunned by the platoon leader's dismissal at the beginning, but after getting in touch with them, they realized that the platoon leader was quite amiable and not so fierce at all.

After Li Jin finished speaking, it took 2 minutes before he continued.

"From now on, you must make a report before speaking, and you are not allowed to speak without making a report. This is the first lesson I teach you!
Also, the question just now, do I have so much free time? It’s okay to let you eat shit. Can eating shit defeat devils?
If I could, I would eat ten catties, or one hundred catties!A thousand catties! "Li Jin shouted.

When everyone heard Li Jin talking about eating shit, they felt like laughing for a while, but they all held back, and it was a bit uncomfortable to hold back.

"From now on, don't ask such meaningless questions again!" Li Jin said and called several monitors.

"Arrange accommodation for them, as for bedding, there are not so many of them now, let them squeeze together, and distribute bedding to them tomorrow." Li Jin said.

They don't have so many quilts now, so they need several recruits to squeeze together, and Xu Qingfeng will take someone to buy quilts tomorrow.

"Yes!" Zhao Ming and the others nodded.

"Give me the roster. I will roll the rolls starting tomorrow." Li Jin took the roster and turned into the room.

"You all heard what the platoon leader said. If you want to talk, you have to make a report. Also, after the roll call, you have to call out the names. Do you understand?" Zhao Ming said.

"Understood!" Everyone replied.

"Didn't you eat! Louder!" Zhao Ming roared.

"Understood!!!" Everyone replied loudly, their voices were shaking and full of enthusiasm.

"Okay, is that right? The sound is like thunder and the movement is like the wind. We must maintain this kind of momentum. In war, we fight with momentum. If you don't even have momentum, then you can still fight like a bird!" Zhao Ming said loudly.
