Chapter 1180 Grassland Class
"Are you still getting used to it?"

In the evening, after dinner, Gao Cheng came over to express his concern for the best soldier in the world in his mind.

Wang Yan nodded with a smile: "I'm used to it now, better than when I was in the recruit company. It would be even better if I could see an artillery salvo someday."

"When we have a chance, you can see whatever you want during the exercise. You did a good job today. I didn't see anything when you were shooting. Our battalion commander couldn't close his mouth. He kept it open, stunned..."

Gao Cheng laughed as he spoke, and even imitated the battalion commander, "I tell you, this is only because I have seen it in advance, otherwise I wouldn't be much better. You are exaggerating."

"I'm a natural soldier, it would be wrong not to exaggerate."

"Although this is a bit embarrassing, I think what you said is true."

"Strong is strong. My deputy class teacher Wu said that if you are too awesome and try to be low-key, then you are just pretending to be awesome. He also criticized me harshly."

Wang Yan smiled and said, "Captain, I want to ask for leave and borrow your car."

"Is something wrong?"

"Isn't the fifth squad right here? The squad leader and the deputy squad leader and I wanted to go over and take a look. Isn't Xu Sanduo assigned there? The squad leader said that the squad leader of the fifth squad is his old squad leader from the recruit company."

"Lao Ma? I know him. He was a good soldier. What a pity." Gao Cheng smiled and said, "Okay! Go ahead. Come back soon."

"Yes!"

Wang Yan responded, and followed Shi Jin and Wu Liuyi, driving a jeep across the boundless grassland...

In the fifth squad’s station on the grassland, the lights in the squad room were dim.

Four veterans were playing cards around a table, and each of them had a few pieces of paper stuck on their faces.

The chubby old Wei glanced at him and said, "Sanduo, stop fiddling with that broken gun. It's not fun. Come here, sit here with me, and I'll teach you how to play poker."

Xu Sanduo smiled innocently and said, "I don't want to play."

"Don't want to play? Then you can play mahjong. We have mahjong in our class. You can play it, right?"

"No need to play." Xu Sanduo still smiled foolishly.

Then he lowered his head and fiddled with the Type 81 rifle in his hand, continuously disassembling and assembling it.

"Then what's the point of just disassembling the gun?"

"Interesting." Xu Sanduo smiled, "Wang Yan told me that if I keep doing simple things repeatedly, I will be a good soldier."

"That Wang Yan has done a lot of harm to people. He has gone to the Seventh Company, and you have come to the grassland."

"Old Wei, don't say that. I know what Wang Yan said is right. No one has ever said that I can do it. He was the first one to say it. When we were in the recruit company, we had bunk beds, and at the beginning..."

Li Meng continued, "You were nothing at the beginning, but Wang Yan accompanied you in extra practice, which helped you improve from being the laggard in the class to the top. Right? You've only been here for two days, and you've said this eight hundred times."

Xu Sanduo still smiled: "Wang Yan is right."

"He always talks about Wang Yan. He seems to be your father."

Xu Sanduo smiled, did not argue, and continued to fiddle with his Type 81 rifle.

"Okay, this Sanduo, a blockhead, play cards, play cards, play cards." Xue Lin on the side, snapped out two threes, "Look, my two threes are not big."

"Right, Liu!" said squad leader Lao Ma. "Sanduo, don't think too much. They don't have bad intentions."

"Sergeant, I know everything. They are joking with me." Xu Sanduo replied.

"Hey, Sanduo, this is a good realization. He was just joking."

A group of people were chatting and laughing and amusing the fool, but only Lao Ma really cared about Xu Sanduo's feelings.

But relatively speaking, Xu Sanduo was not bad, after all, he was not bullied, just some verbal exclusion. But on the other hand, everyone was waiting for their service to expire in this remote place, and they were relaxed every day, so there was no need to bully a silly boy like Xu Sanduo.

Their verbal rejection now was just the beginning. As time went on, they would understand Xu Sanduo and naturally stop teasing him.

Of course, that's when Xu Sanduo doesn't "make progress". Otherwise, it would be the same as in the original play.

But then again, that's because they still have some conscience and are not hopeless. If that weren't the case, Xu Sanduo would be motivated, what does it have to do with them? They wouldn't be so upset...

They were laughing like this until they heard some noise outside.

"Why does it sound like a car is coming?" Li Meng said, tilting his ear.

Lao Ma also listened and stood up: "Even if the car came, who would come at this time of night?"

Having said that, he stood up and walked quickly out, not forgetting to wave to others, asking them to pack up quickly.

Although the probability is relatively small, if the leader comes, they will be in trouble, very bad.

Lao Ma ran out in a hurry and saw Shi Jin who was leading the group.

"Hi, it's you, kid." Lao Ma smiled.

"Come and see the old squad leader. Do you think the leader is here to inspect?"

"I was wondering which chief would be so free to come to this remote place like ours in the middle of the night." Old Ma laughed and punched Shi Jin, "Are you guys out for training?"

"Yes, I came here to see you, and also to see Xu Sanduo." Shi Jin said with a smile, "This is Wu Liuyi, my squad leader, and this is Wang Yan, also from our class. When we were in the recruit company..."

"I know everything. Deputy Squad Leader Wu is the squad leader, you are the platoon leader, and Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo share the upper and lower bunks." Lao Ma shook hands with Wu Liuyi and Wang Yan.

He said to Wang Yan, "It can be seen that you are very nice to Xu Sanduo. He keeps talking about him when he comes here."

Wang Yan nodded with a smile: "We get along very well."

"Come on, come on, let's go in and talk, let's go in and talk." Old Ma greeted them warmly and led the three people into the house.

Inside the house, everyone in Class 5, including Xu Sanduo, had already stood at attention.

When they saw everyone coming in, the others didn't say anything, but Xu Sanduo was so happy that he almost jumped up: "Platoon leader, squad leader, Wang Yan, why are you here?"

Shi Jin said, "We are training today and camping nearby, so I thought I'd come and see you. How are you doing? Are you adapting?"

"I've adapted. They've been so nice to me and taken extra care of me." Xu Sanduo smiled innocently. "I wrote you a letter yesterday. The squad leader said that supplies would arrive every three days and would arrive tomorrow. I hadn't sent the letter yet, and you guys are here."

"Are you happy?" Wu Liuyi smiled.

"Happy!"

"You are just a fool, you just laugh."

"Hehe..." Xu Sanduo's response was simple and direct.

Wang Yanxiao asked, "Did you do exercises today?"

"I ran five kilometers today carrying a 30-kilogram weight, but I don't know how long it took."

"Leave this problem to me. I'll give you an electronic watch next time. Then you'll know the time." Wang Yan patted Xu Sanduo's shoulder. "Let me see. Is this your bed?"

Wang Yan looked at the only bed that met the housekeeping standards.

The faces of Lao Ma and the people in Class 5 at the back were somewhat interesting because they had brought shame upon themselves.

Xu Sanduo couldn't see it, so he smiled and said, "Yes, squad leader, can you check it?"

Wu Liuyi was straightforward, but he also knew a little bit about the ways of the world. He didn't really check it, but smiled and said, "I think it's good."

Wang Yan didn't care about that. He went up and pulled it: "You didn't buckle this corner well. Pay attention next time." "Yes!" Xu Sanduo still smiled.

Ever since Wang Yan and the other two came in, he has never closed his mouth and has been smiling the whole time.

Old Wei seemed to suddenly realize something: "You are Wang Yan."

"It's me. Hello, old squad leader." Wang Yan nodded with a smile, with a kind attitude.

Lao Wei is a first-term non-commissioned officer and a serious squad leader.

Old Wei smiled and said, "I heard Xu Sanduo say that you are the best soldier in the recruit company. You ran a 5km cross-country race with a load of 30kg in under 20 minutes. You can shoot 100 meters with a pistol and 200 meters with a rifle, and you hit the target all the time. You even received a commendation. You are awesome!"

He gave a thumbs up to show his praise.

"A bit of talent." Wang Yan said jokingly.

As expected, everyone laughed. Humor can really bring people closer together.

After some joking, Shi Jin sighed and said, "Wang Yan, Sanduo, you may not know that the first place winner of our division's five-kilometer armed cross-country race was squad leader Ma, who even won a third-class merit that year. That's incredible."

"That's right. I've been running myself to death, but I still haven't been better than squad leader Ma." Wu Liuyi smiled and gave a thumbs up, "Great."

"What's so great about that?" Old Ma smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Look at me now. Can I still run? A hero never talks about his past achievements. They are all in the past. Even if you kill me now, I can't run. Liuyihang, I have heard of your great name here. When talking about the Seventh Company, I have to mention you. You are the one."

"Don't, the real thing is here. This guy is really fierce." Wu Liuyi gave a thumbs up and punched Wang Yan again, "He is now a famous big beast, I can't compare to him. He can beat me with one hand."

Old Ma looked at Wang Yan in surprise: "So fierce?"

"It's a bit exaggerated." Wang Yan smiled and waved his hand.

"That must be amazing, you picked it up." Lao Ma looked at Shi Jin.

Shi Jin smiled and said, "They are all our company commanders, otherwise they wouldn't be here."

"My subjective will is also very strong." Wang Yan added.

Shi Jin continued, "Sergeant, Xu Sanduo is also a good soldier. When he first arrived, he was at the bottom of the recruit company, but by the end of three months, he was one of the best among the more than 100 recruits."

Old Ma nodded, "Yes, I noticed it. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me for saying this, but this place is deserted and everything is lax. You can tell by looking at the housekeeping. I didn't ask for anything, but look, this guy still tidied up the housekeeping and did morning exercises on time. He cleaned up the whole day today, and now he's just taking a break and he's fiddling with his gun again. He's been dismantling and assembling it. You can tell at a glance that it's in good condition."

"Okay, very good!" Shi Jin looked at Xu Sanduo, "You held on."

"What's the use?" Li Meng interrupted.

Old Ma glared at him, then smiled bitterly and said, "It can't be helped. This place is remote and not many people come here normally. After a long time, people become lazy."

"Make criticisms, old squad leader." Wang Yan said, "As a soldier, you must be strict with yourself. If there are difficulties, overcome them and always keep your mind tight."

"That's easy to say." Lao Wei sighed, "Brother, even if you are talking without any pain in your waist, really, you will also have to pull your hips if you come."

"That's about overcoming difficulties, old squad leaders, you have to overcome them." Wang Yan smiled and turned around and said, "Sanduo, you held on. Set an example for the old squad leaders."

"I don't know." Xu Sanduo scratched his head.

"Just do what you did in the recruit company. You can do it."

Xu Sanduo smiled innocently.

"Fool." Wu Liuyi scolded with a smile.

Lao Wei said unhappily, "I see, too. You just want to make yourself unhappy."

Without saying much, just drinking a glass of water and smoking two cigarettes, Wang Yan and others left under Xu Sanduo's reluctant gaze.

It's only been two days, so there's not much to talk about, just some laughter.

As for Shi Jin and Lao Ma, he used to come over occasionally and the two of them also corresponded.

In the original play, Xu Sanduo stayed in the fifth squad of the grassland for half a year, but Shi Jin did not come. I am afraid that it was because he felt guilty and was embarrassed to face Xu Sanduo and could not get over it.

But now that Wang Yan had asked him to come, he couldn't refuse any more, so he just came over.

Wang Yan could still see the unnaturalness in Shi Jin's smile towards Xu Sanduo...

I went back to the camp and found Gaocheng to report.

"How's he?"

"Very good." Wang Yan replied with a smile.

Gao Cheng nodded: "That kid just has no spirit."

"Then it happened later." Shi Jin continued.

"You are just a fool. You have no wildness and you are not ruthless at all. How can you be a good soldier? I tell you, just give up on this idea. Anyway, it's useless to say anything now."

Gao Cheng waved his hand impatiently, "Alright, alright, go back. It's hard to sleep in the wild."

This is the truth, they are out here for training, not for pleasure. If the trip is long-distance, they will bring a logistics vehicle with tents and the like, and for a two-day and one-night trip like this, they basically sleep outdoors.

The chariot was lying sideways, and they were at the back, sheltered from the wind, and had a shed erected to protect them from rain. They spent the night like this, using their backpacks as pillows and moisture-proof boards.

This can be considered a wartime simulation. After all, if a real war breaks out, the sleeping conditions will be the worst, and they need to adapt. They are also a mechanized front-line field force, so they need to adapt even more.

"Oh, there are mosquitoes all over the grassland." Bai Tiejun slapped himself hard.

It is midsummer now, and there are indeed a lot of mosquitoes.

"I brought some toilet water with me, so just apply some on it."

"I'm about to drink it. I can't stop myself."

"Go to sleep, you'll be fine once you fall asleep." Gan Xiaoning replied.

Wang Yan lay outside the shed, his hands behind his head, looking at the starry sky over the grassland.

"I have a formula. Go get some medicine when you take a break and come back to make some."

"Does it work?"

"Of course, my grandfather is a famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor in the area. These are all prescriptions passed down from my ancestors. If I sell them, I can become a billionaire."

"Just brag, Brother Yan." Bai Tiejun said disdainfully, "Then why don't you sell it? Can't you just enjoy yourself at home? Why do you come here to be a soldier and suffer so much?"

"Your awareness is not good enough, monitor. You have to teach him some lessons later."

"We need to talk it over carefully. If your thoughts are not strong enough, that won't work." Shi Jin responded seriously.

“I’m not talking about the reality.”

"I've said it so many times, I love being a soldier, I was born to be a soldier. What, do you still want to be a soldier to make money?"

"To make a fortune, one has to be in logistics. We soldiers don't have that chance. It's good enough if we can save some money."

"No, I really need to talk to you." Shi Jin sat up...

Bai Tiejun is not happy...

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