Chapter 1199: Guardian

"No, what are you two doing instead of sleeping?"

Hearing the wakeup call, Gao Cheng, who had just slept very late, woke up in a daze and saw Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo folding their quilts and getting dressed. He sat up immediately.

Xu Sanduo replied: "Let's do morning exercises, Captain. Wang Yan said that if you are a soldier for a day, you must be strict with yourself and not slack off."

Gao Cheng was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Wang Yan beside him, who nodded in response with a smile.

Gao Cheng let out a long sigh and rubbed his head vigorously.

"Grass!"

He cursed weakly.

Wang Yan smiled and said, "Go out and breathe some fresh air. Life lies in exercise, and officers cannot relax in physical training. Let's go, Captain, go out and run ten kilometers, and all your worries will be gone."

"How can I sleep then?" Gao Cheng said helplessly.

He had no choice but to get up, put on his clothes, and go do morning exercises with Wang Yan.

Three people lined up, with Wang Yan in the lead, Xu Sanduo in the second, and Gao Cheng in the rear. Wang Yan slowed down and told Gao Cheng to keep up.

In the first 400 meters, as he sped up and then slowly slowed down, he had already grasped Gao Cheng's limit. So even though he slowed down, he was still basically at Gao Cheng's limit.

The three of them stood out among the few people doing exercises on the playground. They ran around in circles so quickly.

After ten kilometers, Wang Yan was not affected at all, but Xu Sanduo was sweating and breathing a little faster. Gao Cheng was in much worse condition, lying on the ground gasping for breath, his hair wet.

"Captain, you can't do this. Your physical fitness has declined. I remember when I first came here, you ran faster than you do now."

"I'm not in good shape."

"That's a reason, and I can't refute it."

"Get lost, I'm telling the truth, I'm not making excuses."

The three chatted for a while, then walked in line to eat breakfast. Just like yesterday, Xu Sanduo sang the military song again. Gao Cheng endured the trembling of his soul and sang along with Xu Sanduo. No matter what others said, he had to finish singing.

During the meal, Gao Cheng ate with other officers. During the meal, Gao Cheng also learned about Xu Sanduo and Wang Yan's insistence yesterday. He seemed to be fine, scolding Xu Sanduo and Wang Yan as fools, and joking with other officers. But for a moment, his eyes were full of tears, and the few words he said were a little trembling. Whenever someone said something slightly sad, he would cry at any time.

But no one said anything, so Gao Cheng kept it to himself, as if nothing had happened, and the three of them never talked about this topic again.

After breakfast, Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo continued their physical training as usual, and Gao Cheng followed them idly. Training with two top soldiers was very torturous. It was physically torturous, and even more mentally torturous.

Because we are all human, how come they are so awesome? Gao Cheng is a soldier first, and an officer second. These two soldiers are more awesome than each other, and he is both relieved and upset.

Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo didn't feel anything, and continued their training as usual. Wang Yan knew that Xu Sanduo liked training. As for him, he was just looking for trouble.

After all, this level of training does not bring him much benefit, it is just to exercise his body and keep him energetic.

This went on until lunch time. Halfway through his meal, Gao Cheng was called away by someone sent by the regiment commander, and he did not return for lunch.

It was not until Wang Yan and the others returned to the dormitory that they saw Gao Cheng again.

He had already packed the bedding he had received from the third shift last night, changed into his regular clothes, and put on a wide-brimmed hat.

"You're back." He greeted the two of them somewhat awkwardly.

"Has there been any transfer?" Wang Yanxiao asked, and took out a cigarette and lit it for Gao Cheng.

Gao Cheng nodded, took two puffs of his cigarette, and said, "Deputy Battalion Commander of the Division Reconnaissance Battalion."

"This time it's really 21 cents, good news."

Xu Sanduo said nothing and kept his head down in silence.

Wang Yan patted him on the shoulder and said, "The company commander has been promoted. Say something and show your attitude."

Xu Sanduo raised his head and looked straight at Gao Cheng, but his gaze made Gao Cheng feel uncomfortable.

He stammered, "I wish the company commander will become a high-ranking official in the future."

"Look, Comrade Xu Sanduo is talented, simple and direct." Wang Yan laughed, "I wish you, the son of a general, will surpass your master."

Gao Cheng laughed: "Fuck, you're scolding me, right?"

"My sincerest wishes." Wang Yan laughed.

Gao Cheng waved his hand and went back to get his stereo and a pile of discs.

"I give this to you. Listen to some songs when you have nothing to do and cultivate your sentiments. This is a gift I leave for you."

By this time, he had already packed his backpack.

"That's enough. Don't be so slow, man. Come to me if you need anything in the future. If I can do it, I'll do it. If I can't, I'll find a way. I'm leaving now. No need to see you off."

After saying that, Gao Cheng suddenly turned around and trotted away quickly.

"Company Commander!" Xu Sanduo suddenly shouted.

Gao Cheng stopped at the corner of the stairs, looked up at Xu Sanduo, and after a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "Xu Sanduo, you are a good soldier, do your best."

Then he didn't stop and ran out directly...

In the open space in front of the barracks, Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo looked at the direction where Gao Cheng left. There was only one road there, and there was no trace of Gao Cheng. Gao Cheng, the soul of the Seventh Company, finally left his beloved Seventh Company, almost in a way of escaping.

Xu Sanduo let out a long sigh: "Wang Yan, there are only two of us left in the Seventh Company."

"Don't say that. Everyone in the Seventh Company is alive and well. Let's go back and take a nap. We'll continue training in the afternoon."

The two went back to the dormitory. Wang Yan was reading a book while Xu Sanduo made his bed to the lower bunk, put his hands behind his head and looked at the bed board of the upper bunk.

"Chengcai wrote me a letter two days ago."

Maybe he wanted to find something to say, Wang Yan replied with a "hmm" and asked, "What did you say?"

"He signed as a noncommissioned officer. You definitely don't know where he'll be as a squad leader."

"Grassland Class Five."

Xu Sanduo turned around and said with a silly smile: "Wang Yan, you are really smart. You knew it before I even told you."

"This is reasoning. You said I didn't know, but you told me, which means I know this place. The only place I know about the Third Company that is worth talking about here is the Fifth Squad."

"He was unhappy. He said Class 5 was not good."

"Definitely. Class 5 is remote and they don't even give us bullets. Chengcai is really trying to move up. If he's happy, that's weird."

“I think Class 5 is particularly good.”

"I think it's good, too. But people still say that the Fifth Squad is a paradise for bad soldiers and a grave for good soldiers. You are special. You are a good soldier who walked out of the grave."

Xu Sanduo was a little embarrassed: "It was the squad leader who took care of me."

Wang Yan smiled and said nothing more.

"Wang Yan, when are we going to sign up as non-commissioned officers?"

"It's been about these few days."

Xu Sanduo responded, but didn't say anything else, and continued to look at the bed...

In this way, Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo guarded the 7th Steel Company together, although the 7th Company's number had been revoked at that time.

On the morning of the third day after Gao Cheng left, Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo were doing their daily physical training on the playground when Wu Liuyi came running over.

"Deputy squad leader." Xu Sanduo greeted happily.

Wang Yan also raised his head and greeted: "I'm here."

"Okay, you two, still training?"

"To kill time, otherwise I don't know what to do." Wang Yan responded with a smile.

"Wang Yan, this sentence is not nice." Xu Sanduo said.

Wu Liuyi smiled: "Then say something nice."

"One day in the army means one day on guard duty." Xu Sanduo smiled innocently, "That's what Wang Yan said, too. I think he's absolutely right."

"You're aware." Wu Liuyi gave a thumbs up, and took out most of the pack of cigarettes from Wang Yan. He lit a cigarette for Wang Yan, lit one for himself, and put the rest of the cigarettes into his pocket.

Without waiting for Wang Yan to curse, he changed the subject, "I heard that our company commander was transferred to the division reconnaissance battalion, and his salary is 21 cents." "He left at noon the day before yesterday." Wang Yan said, "Are you here on behalf of your old comrades to show your care for the veterans who stayed behind?"

"Is it so obvious?"

Wang Yan nodded with a smile: "It's written on his face."

Xu Sanduo said: "Deputy class leader, we are both fine, don't worry."

"That's what I said, but the squad leader and the instructor insisted that I come over to take a look. Seeing you like this, everyone is relieved. We left early. The later we leave, the more uncomfortable it will be."

Wang Yan patted Xu Sanduo on the shoulder: "He is the one suffering the most."

"I'm not feeling bad. I'm fine."

"You're just being stubborn." Wu Liuyi shook his head with amusement, "If you were really nice, you would be laughing like a fool right now. Don't you just love to laugh like that? You can't laugh now, right?"

So Xu Sanduo laughed again.

"You are a fool!" Wu Liuyi scolded with a smile.

The three of them were very happy chatting together, but they still couldn't escape sadness, because they were still chatting about the past, and the happiness in the past made people unhappy now, and they had to pretend to be happy.

Wu Liuyi couldn't stand it, he felt depressed, so he left after not staying for long.

So only Wang Yan and Xu Sanduo were left in the Seventh Company...

The next day, Xu Sanduo received a letter from his hometown. After reading it at his desk, he sat there in a daze, as if his spirit was drained, and he really became a fool.

Wang Yan noticed that something was wrong with him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"My father wanted to come and see me. He didn't agree with me signing as a non-commissioned officer and wanted me to go home and get married."

"Didn't you tell your father what I said to you before?"

"I didn't say..."

"It's okay." Wang Yan waved his hand. "I'll entertain him when he comes over, and then I'll chat with him."

"Can it be done?"

"You still don't believe me? I promise there will be no problem. Go tell Wu Liuyi tomorrow that he went to your house. Now that your father is here, let him stay with you."

"I'll pay."

"It's pointless to worry about that. We can talk about it later."

So the matter was settled.

Three days later, Wang Yan borrowed a car and took Xu Sanduo and Wu Liuyi to the train station in Zhangjiakou to pick someone up.

Old Xu was smoking a cigarette, wearing an old suit, and carrying a large package, looking quite stylish.

"father."

"Uncle." Wang Yan and Wu Liuyi also greeted Lao Xu.

Old Xu smiled, revealing his big yellow teeth, and looked at Wu Liuyi: "Liuyi, you're here too."

"Uncle, you came to the army to see Sanduo, how could I not come?"

Xu Sanduo said: "Dad, this is the Wang Yan I wrote to you about. He is very capable and will be promoted to an officer soon."

"Uncle." Wang Yan greeted him again and shook hands with Lao Xu.

"Thank you for taking care of our boy in the army."

"We are all comrades-in-arms, so we should help each other." Wang Yan said with a smile, "Let's go, uncle, get in the car, let's go back to the army first, go to the service center to have some food, and then have a drink with you."

"They are all bitter and not easy. Just eat anything. I'm not picky. As long as there's wine, it's fine."

"Wine is definitely necessary, and I must accompany you well."

So the group of people got on the car and returned to the base. They first went to the guesthouse to arrange a place for Lao Xu to stay, and after putting down his things, they took Lao Xu to the service center for dinner.

The chefs here are very skilled and they didn't fool the soldiers. The price-performance ratio is very high.

The four of them sat around the table and ordered a table full of various dishes. They drank the famous liquor from Hebei Province, Hengshui Laobai Gan, which made them sound masculine.

After drinking half a glass of wine, Lao Xu's face turned red, his eyes became a little hazy, and his voice gradually became louder.

He said, "I came here this time to take this kid back. After dinner, take me to see your leader and I'll go talk to him."

"Dad, I don't want to go back." Xu Sanduo said.

"I'll hit you!" Lao Xu glared and slammed the table. "What's the point of suffering in the army? Our family is counting on you to carry on the family line. Why don't you go back?"

"Uncle, don't get excited." Wang Yan smiled and patted Lao Xu's arm to comfort him, then said, "Uncle, you let Sanduo go back just to get married and have children?"

"What do you mean by just? This isn't a big deal. Liuyi knows about our family's situation. The eldest and second sons are useless and can't be relied on in this life, but our family's incense can't be cut off."

"Uncle, what you said is absolutely right. There is nothing wrong with it. Sanduo also told me about your family's situation. I understand it." Wang Yan said sincerely, "So you want Sanduo to return home after demobilization. Do you have any arrangements? Have you cleaned up the house and prepared the betrothal gifts?"

"Uh……"

Lao Xu was a little embarrassed. He thought for a while and said, "You still have to earn money. I want to let Sanduo go back first. He is young, so he can learn a skill. I will save some money for him. It will take him three to five years. When he learns the skill, he will have saved money. Then everything will be easy, right?"

"That's right, uncle, you're right." Wang Yan said, "How old are my eldest and second brothers?"

"The eldest is thirty-three, and the second oldest is thirty."

"Look, uncle, it's been three to five years, and the eldest and second sons are still single."

"Yeah, I'm worried too. There's nothing I can do..." Old Xu suddenly got excited and glared at Wang Yan, "No, are you scolding me in a roundabout way?"

Wang Yan smiled and patted Lao Xu's arm to comfort him: "How is that possible, uncle? I'm just telling you the actual situation. Didn't you let your eldest and second brothers learn a craft? Didn't you save money for them? That's why they both failed to get married."

"The two of them are not up to the task, one is worse than the other, but this son of a bitch doesn't have those bad habits. Although he can't do anything even if he is beaten with three sticks, he works hard. As long as he works hard, he can learn a skill and save money."

Lao Xu does know someone, and what he said is not bad.

Wang Yan nodded: "Uncle, if you think so, Sanduo has more prospects in the army than going out to learn a craft."

"Nonsense, it's only a few hundred dollars a month, not even enough for cigarettes and alcohol."

"Deputy of the Fifth Shift, tell me, how much do you make a month now?"

"Uncle, I make nearly 4,000 a month now. In addition, they said they would increase our salaries this year. Let's wait until the second half of the year, then I can make 5,000 a month. And in the army, I don't have to spend money on food and drink, so I can save a lot every month."

"Did you hear that? You let Sanduo go back to the village and work in your county to learn a skill. Even if he learns for a few years, can he earn so much? The army is still better. Food and drink are free, and the government reimburses medical treatment. Even if it's about marrying a wife, if Sanduo does a good job, the government will give him a wife."

"Can he do it well?" Old Xu glanced at his son with a look of disdain.

"Uncle, I have to criticize you. Don't look at people with old eyes. Sanduo is a good soldier. We all call him the King of Soldiers. Last year, we had a big competition with 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers, and he came in second. Didn't he write to you, uncle? He even won the third-class merit.

If he stays in the army, he will sign up as a non-commissioned officer in a few days. We certainly don't earn as much as the deputy of the fifth squad, because he has been in the army for longer. But after we sign up as non-commissioned officers, we can also earn 2,000 yuan per month. When he does well, he will earn more. If he performs well in the future and is promoted, he can continue to work in the army until retirement. After retirement, the state will give you a pension of several thousand yuan per month, and you don't have to spend money on medical treatment.

How good is that? You ask him to go back and learn a skill, but what can he learn? We are now supported by the government. Even if he cannot be promoted, he has served for a long time, and when he is discharged from the army, the government will arrange a job for him. Take the old squad leader before Sanduo, who served in the army for twelve years. What do you think he is doing now? A policeman! A regular civil servant. If he does a good job, he can become an official in the future.

Uncle, think about it, how respectable it would be. When the time comes, you can tell everyone at home that my son is a policeman! Right? Think about it carefully. "

"Hey, you're right." Lao Xu took a sip of wine and felt a little happier.

"Look, can I lie to you, uncle?" Wang Yan said with a smile, "Let's talk about getting married, what else can we lack? Sanduo is still young, if he works hard in the army, he will definitely find a wife in three to five years. You don't have to worry about it. We comrades will arrange it for him.

You said let him go back, who can help him? If there is someone to help us, wouldn't the elder brother and the second brother have married a wife long ago? Don't you think so, uncle? This matter, after all, is about money. Sanduo stays in the army and works hard, then he will not lack money in the future.

If I become an official in the future..."

"Oh, that's really a shame. I don't dare to think about it. I don't dare to think about it. Just be a policeman, just be a policeman. But I don't think this son of a bitch is cut out to be a policeman."

"You've been dealing with him for twenty years, so you definitely can't see it. It's just you, uncle, you call him a bastard all the time. I tell you, if it was someone else, Sanduo would have kicked him away."

"He dares to rebel against him."

"That's because you don't dare. Uncle, it's always the father who knows his son. Sanduo is the most hardworking among us. Let me tell you, uncle, when we first came..."

While drinking and chatting, Lao Xu was fooled...

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