Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 596 Chapter 596, Two Troublemakers

"Hey, Xuesong! You were saved by the squad leader. If the squad leader loses today, he will be embarrassed and can't get off the stage. How can you face it?"

In the room, Xu Jinbu was lying on the kang, looking at Zhang Xuesong beside him and asked a question.

Zhang Xuesong frowned when he heard this, a little confused: "The squad leader saved me, I remember this in my heart, but what does this have to do with it? In our old compound, we could cut our heads off for our friends, but there are some things that we still have to fight for.

I heard that there was a battle on the riverside here. Think about it, if a fight really broke out, would the squad leader take the lead and rush forward?
Do you know what the sacrifice rate of squad leaders is during fierce fighting during wartime?

50%!

Why is the casualty rate among the leaders and generals so high?

Is it because their military technology is not good enough?

Of course not. In every military assessment, the top students are basically squad leaders, platoon leaders and company commanders. So are they just unlucky?

Of course not. Everyone is equal in front of guns and cannonballs on the battlefield.

Their sacrifice was only because they always took the lead and charged forward at the most dangerous times and in the most dangerous places.

We often hear about suicide squads. Squad leaders and platoon leaders are often the best candidates for suicide squads, and company commanders are often the leaders of suicide squads.

After saying that, looking at Xu Jinbu who seemed to understand but not quite, he continued: "If the squad leader has poor qualities in all aspects, how can he convince others?"

Xu Jinbu nodded slightly after hearing this, and then grinned: "Are you convinced now?"

These words made Zhang Xuesong's mouth twitch.

Judging from the physical fitness that Yang Xiaole had demonstrated before, the other aspects would not be too bad. The gap between the two people is simply a world of difference.

Even if you work harder later, it is still a question whether you can catch up.

Thinking of this, he still refused to admit defeat: "I admit defeat, but I will still train more in the future. There will always be a day when I can surpass you. Even if my physical fitness is not good enough, what about other things?"

The qualities of new recruits are not just these two items.

He is a man who has practiced kung fu, and he doesn't believe that he has no chance to surpass others.

Of course, the matter of the squad leader has come to an end, so naturally it will not be mentioned again.

I am too embarrassed to mention it.

At this time, Li Jianguo, who was sitting next to Xu Jinbu, suddenly hit him: "Hey, Zhang Xuesong, have you found a problem with the squad leader?"

"what is the problem?"

Zhang Xuesong was curious.

"After the squad leader finished, his face didn't turn red, and he didn't sweat at all. How about you?"

"Is this true? Impossible!"

Zhang Xuesong rolled over. Not to mention doing push-ups, he would have sweated even if he was exposed to the sun.

"What do you think? Believe it or not!"

After Li Jianguo finished speaking, he adjusted his posture to make himself sleep more comfortably.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuesong lay down again suspiciously.

At this time, Zhao Gang looked at Zhang Xuesong and felt that his position might be in jeopardy!

This guy will cause trouble for himself during training in the future.

What should I do?
That’s enough!
Yang Xiaole came in from outside at this time, and seeing that most people were asleep, he lay down too.

Everyone had only been here a few days and was not very familiar with the place, so they did not run around at noon.

Of course, the main reason was that I was too tired from the training in the morning and did not get enough sleep yesterday.

In the afternoon, as the horn sounded, everyone climbed up.

Same queue assembly!
Meng Zhiyuan looked at these people and said calmly: "At noon today, I took a look at your dormitories. It will take a few days for the military blankets and uniforms to arrive. But during this time, you must learn how to fold the military blankets. Fold the blankets into tofu blocks, and put the toiletries neatly. Don't mess around.

After the roll call at night, I will teach everyone how to fold their quilts. The squad leader will supervise everyone every day."

After a pause, he continued, "We will have physical training next week. Each squad leader will do a survey when you go back home at night. I will tell you the assessment standards later. If there is a big gap, the squad leader has the responsibility to help other comrades improve."

"Did you hear that?"

"heard it!"

The two squad leaders naturally agreed.

Meng Zhiyuan restated several standards.

The main ones are push-ups, sit-ups, dips, running... and so on, various indicators.

"Remember the general idea first. If you can't remember it, you can talk about it later. Practice first."

Then the afternoon training began.

It’s basically the same as in the morning. I’ll practice the basics first.

……

After the afternoon training, everyone returned to the dormitory after dinner.

"Come on, squad leader, let's go for a walk!"

In the dormitory, Zhang Xuesong winked at him.

After dinner, they were left with an hour of free time, which also allowed them to get to know the entire company.

This finally gave everyone time to stroll around the area.

Yang Xiaole knew that this guy wanted to smoke because there were some cigarettes in his bag that he had not put away, and he smoked secretly at night.

After thinking it over, I decided to follow him out.

After the two went out, they strolled around the area.

No one knew where the others went. Some went for a walk, while others went out to smoke secretly.

……

Finding a place where no one was around, Zhang Xuesong took out a cigarette and said with a smile: "Come on, squad leader, have a cigarette!"

Yang Xiaole took it.

The two of them lit a cigarette and started smoking it.

"Hey, squad leader, I heard that you have participated in combat before? And even won first-class merit? Is that true?"

Yang Xiaole smoked a cigarette and nodded: "Yes, I went there once in April. I was lucky and survived!"

"Tell me! How can I get a chance to go to the battlefield? I want to fight the white bear!"

Zhang Xuesong was smoking a cigarette, talking and looking around.

Yang Xiaole laughed when he heard this and said, "What's there to say? A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Just rush over and do it!"

If it were someone else, they would exaggerate the matter.

Then he persuaded her: "If you want to make meritorious deeds, you should go to the south, not here. Also, don't think about making meritorious deeds every day. Is fighting a good thing?"

Zhang Xuesong was so angry that he said: "I don't want to go to the south. I want to fight the Mao bear. He killed my brother."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole shook his head speechlessly.

This guy is crazy.

Only thinking about revenge.

Then he asked, "Are there only two brothers in your family?"

"Well, there are only two, so I'm going!"

"What if you sacrificed yourself too?" Yang Xiaole asked back.

"When a man dies, the bird flies up to the sky. Twenty years later, he will be a hero again." Zhang Xuesong said nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole nodded slightly: "Well, you are a good man! It can be seen that you and your brother must have a good relationship!"

"Of course! My parents were in the army all year round. We ate in the cafeteria every day. It was rare for us to have a meal cooked by my mother once a year. My brother always took care of me. Whenever I had a fight with someone in the compound, he would help me out. There was one time..."

Zhang Xuesong was talking about the past.

Yang Xiaole listened there quietly.

The relationship between the two is indeed very good.

For Zhang Xuesong, since he seldom saw his father since he was a child, his brother can be said to be half a father to him.

In other words, the relationship between the two is very special.

The difference between him and Feng Aijun is that Feng Aijun at least has his grandparents to take care of him, while Zhang Xuesong has no one to take care of him.

At least Feng Aijun had a good childhood.

"You are a hero, but you are also pitiful. Your father doesn't love you, and your mother doesn't love you."

Zhang Xuesong was so angry at this that he threw away his cigarette butt and said, "What are you talking about? Damn it, be careful or I'll beat you up! How could my parents not love me!"

Yang Xiaole smoked nonchalantly, then said: "You have a good relationship with your brother! Are you not close to your parents? What will happen to your family if you die? You only think about your brother, what about your parents! Aren't you sad?"

Seeing that he was about to speak, she interrupted him and said, "Let me guess, your father probably agrees with you joining the army. He thinks that he will feel honored if you join the army. As for your mother, she will definitely not let you join the army, right!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xuesong calmed down for a moment, and realized that what he had just said was meant to provoke him.

But he was still surprised and asked, "How did you know?"

"What's so hard about this? Your father is a soldier. I guess in your heart, besides him, your father is your belief. And he can't say anything about his profession.

As for your mother, she definitely wouldn't let you join the army. Otherwise, your family's ability to easily transfer local educated youth to the army is not something that ordinary people can do. Under such circumstances, they sent you to join the team. It must have been arranged by your family."

Yang Xiaole said nonchalantly.

Zhang Xuesong was silent for a moment: "Have you guessed it all?"

"Haha! I'm not a fool. It's not like others can't guess it! Do I need you to tell me?"

Yang Xiaole sneered, then said, "Why did your mother let you go as an educated youth? You should know clearly that someone in the family has already had an accident, and they don't want anything to happen to the remaining son. Do you think your father didn't say it just because he wanted you to go? You are so old, don't you know what's going on?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xuesong said nothing.

He handed him another cigarette.

Then he lit up a cigarette for himself and smoked it silently.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole stopped talking. If they can understand, there is no need to say it a second time. If they can't understand, no matter how much you say, it will be useless.

Your life is yours, and you only have one.

What does it have to do with others?

The cigarette had just been lit for a while when he felt some movement nearby and hurriedly said to Zhang Xuesong, "Someone is here, go into the woods!"

The two of them were originally inside the woods.

But not very inside.

"Who?"

This scared Zhang Xuesong, and he asked hurriedly, then walked inside.

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "I don't know, go inside, if it doesn't work, go out."

He naturally knew who was coming.

After saying that, he moved inside, but the cigarette did not go out.

I hid behind for a while, and then I saw two figures coming from a distance and stopped at the edge of the grove.

I didn't go to the grove, but stood on the edge.

……

Wei Zhiyong stood there with his hands behind his back, looking at Tang Ruoyan who was a little nervous.

He smiled and said, "Okay, Comrade Tang Ruoyan, don't be too nervous. I just want to understand the situation. You need to tell the organization the truth."

Tang Ruoyan nodded gently when she heard this: "Yes, instructor, I will tell the truth."

"Okay! Someone responded, saying that you are not originally from our Production and Construction Corps, so how could you come here?"

Hearing this, Tang Ruoyan felt conflicted.

"What's wrong? Is there something you can't tell others? Don't hide anything. Once your situation is reported to the higher-ups, someone will go to the local area to investigate thoroughly."

Tang Ruoyan felt embarrassed when she heard this.

After thinking for a while, he finally said, "I...I got the consent from the commander, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come over!"

These words made Wei Zhiyong frown.

Then he relaxed his frown and said seriously, "You need to think it through. You should know the consequences of lying."

After that, he paused and said earnestly: "Comrade Tang Ruoyan, don't feel any psychological burden. You should know that we have the theory of class background, but we don't just rely on class background. As long as we have a red star, as long as we ask for instructions from me in the morning and report to me in the evening..."

Then he started talking there.

What this means is that even if she has problems, as long as she is an activist, she can still ask for instructions from him early in the morning and report to him late in the evening, and just perform well.

After hearing his words, Tang Ruoyan was somewhat moved.

I felt a bit conflicted.

After thinking about it, I decided to explain the situation clearly.

"Ouch!"

Suddenly, there was a slight noise in the woods.

This made Wei Zhiyong frown and shouted, "Who's there? Come out!"

……

Yang Xiaole frowned when he heard the noise nearby.

The guy didn't put out the cigarette and it burned his hand. Although the noise was not very loud, it was still heard.

"What should we do? How about you run away and I'll go out and lead them away."

Zhang Xuesong said something apologetically and was about to leave.

Yang Xiaole looked at the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped on it and put it out, then threw it far away and picked it up on the spot.

He handed him something: "Here, put it in your mouth."

"Gum tablets? You brought this with you!"

Seeing the things, Zhang Xuesong laughed.

But I still took it, put it in my mouth and chewed it, and even the disgusting handle got a bit of taste.

Yang Xiaole was speechless for a while.

Gum tablets are actually the bubble tea and chewing gum of later generations, except that they are made from chemical materials, while gum tablets today are made from birch gum.

With orange scent.

He put it in his mouth, took one in his hand and rubbed it, then followed it out.

"Deputy Instructor Wei!"

The two men saluted after they came out.

Wei Zhiyong frowned as he looked at the two of them: "What are you two doing in the grove?"

Then he asked, "Are you smoking?"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole laughed and said, "How is that possible! We haven't eaten meat for a long time! Let's go to the woods and see if there is a place nearby where we can set traps to catch rabbits!"

Hearing this, Wei Zhiyong frowned: "This is a military unit, is there any discipline here? Why are you catching rabbits for no reason?"

"Oh! Is there a rule in the army that we can't catch rabbits? Mainly, if we see rabbits in the future, can we not catch them? I remember that the superiors have a rule that our Production and Construction Corps must update itself. In the past, the company must have caught a lot of rabbits nearby, right?"

Yang Xiaole said nonchalantly.

Then he continued, "Besides, we're just taking a look! We haven't caught him yet!"

Wei Zhiyong looked at him with a frown on his face: "Is this how your platoon leader taught you to talk to the commander?"

"Report, according to the rules, in the army, the deputy instructor cannot be called the chief, he can only be called the leader!"

Zhang Xuesong next to him suddenly said something.

This made Wei Zhiyong very angry.

This guy is exactly the one I want to curry favor with!
Why are you speaking up for others?

Originally, he didn't intend to pursue the matter and was prepared to send the two people off with a few words.

I wanted to say something, but took a deep breath.

He looked at Tang Ruoyan and said, "I have a little understanding of the situation. I will find you later! You go back first!"

After saying that, he looked at Yang Xiaole and the other person, took a deep breath, and finally said nothing.

He left with his hands behind his back.

There was nothing serious going on between the two of them, but this matter couldn't just be let go.

After watching the other person leave, Yang Xiaole looked at Zhang Xuesong and smiled: "Why did you open your mouth?"

He felt unhappy just looking at the guy.

The look in this man's eyes when he looked at Tang Ruoyan was so naked that it was unbearable. It was obvious at first glance that he was not a good person.

Don't underestimate Wei Zhiyong. If this guy has a crooked mouth in the future, life will be difficult for ordinary people.

He is not afraid!
Do you really think Zhang Shaoting is a vegetarian?

Zhang Xuesong said: "I'm not a wimp! You've already spoken, how can I not speak?"

Yang Xiaole nodded.

Then he looked at Tang Ruoyan, and this woman was exactly what he thought.

something wrong with.

Of course, this doesn’t mean that she is necessarily a bad person, but it means that there is something wrong with her coming here.
