He is two meters and five centimeters tall. Who made him a soldier?

Chapter 268: One minute on duty, stand still for sixty seconds
Xue Daochao sat in the car, looking towards the hospital gate, occasionally glancing down at his mobile phone.

Now, more than an hour has passed since Ji Baichang walked into the hospital with the gift.

It has already exceeded the time they initially estimated. If this continues, they will definitely have to take an extra day off to get back.

So Xue Daochao simply asked Chen Ting for leave first, so that things wouldn't be too rushed later.

After nearly half an hour, Ji Baichang finally walked out of the hospital gate with a satisfied smile on his face.

The smile on his face and the expressions on the faces of the passers-by around him were two extremes.

"Brother, you are finally here. If we rush back now, we will definitely miss the holiday."

"I just told the driver, if you're five minutes slower, we'll just leave you alone and drive away."

Looking at Ji Baichang who came in from the side door, Xue Daochao sighed.

This guy really has no sense of time. He was agreed to stay in the hospital for only half an hour, but he ended up staying in the hospital for almost two hours.

Judging from Ji Baichang's expression, he succeeded in coaxing her, otherwise he would have been kicked out long ago.

"Oh! Old Xue, don't I know you?"

"You're just trying to scare me, can you really leave me here?"

"Okay, driver, drive as fast as you can. Just follow the speed limit."

Ji Baichang waved his hand contentedly, then leaned back in the back seat, as if he had fallen into an extremely comfortable state.

When Xue Daochao saw this scene, he narrowed his eyes and asked in confusion:
"What took you so long?"

"You don't really have to eat already?"

"Ah? No, no, I just coaxed her back together. Now we can continue our happy relationship~"

"A single guy like you, Lao Xue, doesn't understand how happy I am right now."

"Have you got any cigarettes? Give me one."

Ji Baichang stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of holding a cigarette.

"No, it's already late, you still want to smoke?"

"I just contacted the squad leader, and he said that the group army leader will be here today, so the higher-ups are strictly checking the number of people."

"If the two of us don't arrive on time, forget about going to military school."

"These are the words of our class leader."

After Xue Daochao finished speaking, Ji Baichang, who had just looked relaxed and comfortable, suddenly shuddered and almost jumped up from the back seat!

"What time is it?! What time is it now!"

"It's half past four."

Xue Daochao directly returned Ji Baichang's phone to him, and at the same time opened the screen so that he could see the current time clearly.

"Ah! It's half past five that the holiday ends, right?!"

"What the fuck! What the hell!"

"Driver! Is there a highway? Take the highway and I'll pay for the toll. If you can deliver it to us before 5:30, I'll give you another 10,000 yuan!"

Ji Baichang became anxious. When he heard that today's matter was very serious, he no longer had the relaxed look he had just had.

If all the achievements he had made before were to be wiped out because of the fact that he was late for leave today, he would really cry to death!

I'm afraid you're regretting it so much!

"Forehead"

"That's not going to work, boss. We're already on the highway and it'll take another two hours."

The driver was suddenly in a very difficult situation.

Although ten thousand yuan is really a lot of money, it only takes him a month to earn that much.

But he didn't want to risk his life for the sake of ten thousand dollars. He saw it more clearly than anyone else.

"Shit! What should I do now?"

Ji Baichang covered his head and began to think desperately about countermeasures.

But even if he scratched his head, he couldn't think of any good solution!

"If only I were at home! If I'm in a hurry, I can take a helicopter. What a treat!"

Ji Bai was talking in a daze, and it was obvious that he really regretted his decision.

Seeing this, Xue Daochao opened the chat history between him and Lu Qinglong on his phone and showed it to Ji Baichang:
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"I have just asked for leave, and the monitor will come to the door to pick us up in person."

"Those people from the military who came to check are all fake, they are all trying to fool you."

"Haha, I just saw that you were so cocky just now that you deserved a beating, so I teased you on purpose."

Xue Daochao mocked Ji Baichang without any hesitation, and experienced the feeling of a heart roller coaster with Ji Baichang.

It can be considered as a small punishment for this guy for violating their rules.

"Oh shit!"

"Old Xue, you are so fucking mean! Don't scare me like that! My heart can't bear the pressure!"

Ji Baichang quickly lowered his head to check the chat history with Lu Qinglong on his mobile phone, then looked up at Xue Daochao's teasing eyes, and finally realized that he was being fooled.

How come this damn Xue Daochao always manages to scare me!
"Okay, let's go back quickly. There's a barbecue party tonight. I hope we can make it."

After a two-hour drive, the two of them quickly and smoothly returned to the gate of Lvda.

In front of the gate of Lvda University stood Chen Ting and Lu Qinglong.

Chen Ting simply said hello to the cadres in the duty room and the two soldiers at the battle post. They did not make things difficult for him and let him go directly.

After all, Chen Ting is one of the most experienced veterans in the entire special operations brigade, and they have all been taught something by Chen Ting to some extent.

So this minimum respect still exists.

In addition, their main group has just returned, and there are many people who came back alone at subsequent stations, so it is normal for them to turn a blind eye.

Of course, if someone is so blind, then Lu Qinglong, who is standing behind Chen Ting, can see it and figure out what is going on as long as he has eyes.

"Ji Baichang, what are you doing? Why are you an hour late?"

"The barbecue party organized by the company over there is already ready to begin."

"Squad leader, I went to see my girlfriend. I was delayed a little on the way."

Ji Baichang chuckled. He had already thought about what gift he would give to Chen Ting before he retired from the army.

Five kilograms of gold bars were not heavy enough, so Ji Baichang planned to get something heavier.

"Squad leader, my cousin and I have read your fortune."

"Burn more incense when offering sacrifices to your ancestors every year. The ancestors above will bless you." Xue Daochao took Chen Ting to the side and simply said to Chen Ting.

"Okay, thank you Xue Daochao."

Chen Ting nodded seriously.

Chen Ting actually has quite complicated feelings towards the soldier Xue Daochao.

At least Xue Daochao really overturned his three views and made him aware of some other knowledge.

"It's alright, squad leader. It's all done smoothly."

"Sow good causes, reap good fruits."

"Although this is a Buddhist saying, it means the same thing to us."

"Squad leader, I'll go help them prepare things for the barbecue party."

Xue Daochao turned around and joined the trio that Ji Baichang was in. The three returned to the company, and soon a celebratory barbecue party began on the flat ground in front of the company building.

Most veterans are very good at barbecue. After all, they barbecue during every festival. As long as they have been in the army long enough, they would have had many opportunities to barbecue.

So basically, there are very few things that are half-cooked.

This is also why many veterans do not want to work for others after retiring, so they use their retirement pay to open a "Veteran Barbecue Restaurant"

It can be considered as a semi-professional match.

After all, if you can barbecue in the army, then after you retire, you can open a barbecue restaurant and do some barbecue.

I can only say that I have entered my comfort zone.

By the time they changed into their physical training clothes and came to the open space, Li Wa was already inviting the three people who had just returned to eat barbecue next to the two barbecue stoves belonging to the first team:
"Let's have some pork belly. The quality of this pork belly is very good, with a good balance of fat and lean meat."

"Okay, here I come!"

"Great, Li Wa! You've got some great grilling skills!"

Ji Baichang took a bite and found the crispness just right. After he finished eating a skewer, he gave Li Wa a thumbs up.

Others also joined the barbecue queue one after another. Some were barbecuing, some were playing games, and some were video chatting with their families. It all seemed very lively.

Chen Ting looked at the lively scene that he was familiar with, and a hint of reluctance flashed across his eyes.

In the next few days, except for the second day when the main force returned to the brigade, it happened to be Sunday.

The large force rested as usual and also maintained some equipment that needed maintenance.

On Monday, we started our daily routine training.

The regular training here is no different from playing house compared to their swimming training or the regular training in South Africa.

Normally in Lebanon, they would conduct tactical training in the morning and shooting in the afternoon, and after the shooting they would have to conduct a ten-kilometer forced march.

Basically, there is night training in the evening, which can be said to drain all the physical strength out of people.

But as for the regular training in the brigade~
Again, as long as the demobilized personnel have not left, try to ensure their safety.

In other words, their morning training basically involves working out some tactics, and then they find a place to hide and play with their phones while waiting for the morning training to end.

The most arrogant one is 258.

The veterans in these three levels of military service, namely, second-year privates, fifth-year first-term non-commissioned officers, and eighth-year second-term non-commissioned officers, have completely let themselves go this year because they have no hope of staying in the army or do not want to stay in the army.

At this time, even if their squad leader talked to them, it would not have any effect.

Therefore, the staff on duty who organized the training in the morning adopted a "coaxing" approach to these personnel who were about to retire, coaxing them into training.

As soon as they finished their training, they would go up to them cheerfully and praise them.

The veterans in other companies are no longer surprised by such things.

Even at this time, Chen Ting is considered one of this year's retirees, but he is different from other veterans.

Even though he knew he was about to leave the military camp, he would not slack off at all when it came to training. He would continue to train well without any ambiguity.

Such agile skills didn't seem like something a middle-aged man in his thirties could display.

As a result, several old soldiers in the company who were about to retire and were a little lazy, got their blood boiling when they saw it.

Then they gritted their teeth and started to train to the best of their ability.

"I'll build another one, squad leader. Make sure you have ten targets!"

"Yeah, I'm free anyway, I want to see how many skills I have acquired after serving in the army for so long. I want ten targets too!"

I am about to leave this place, and anyone who says that I have no regrets would be lying.

There will definitely be regrets, but Chen Ting thought that he had been persisting in this kind of life and had been hard on himself for more than fifteen years, and it wouldn't hurt to persist for a few more days.

Gradually, this idea also infected the people around me.

Soon, the entire company was training on the training ground with a roar, which made the other companies a little confused.

Finally, I can only sigh that it is worthy of being the first company of the first battalion, the company that is at the forefront of the entire brigade.

Even though he is about to be discharged from the army, he doesn't seem to have become lazy at all because of the retired soldiers.

Even this abnormal scene caused the company commander Chen Tianjian and the instructor, who were processing documents in their office, to come to the training ground.

Looking at this scene in front of me, I was really stunned.

However, after understanding the whole story, the two couldn't help but shake their heads.

It’s a pity that such a good squad leader has to retire this year.

In the next few days, the trip gradually became lively.

One reason is that most of the troops in the brigade have returned, except for a few who have been on special missions and have not yet returned, it is naturally more lively with more people.

The second reason is that the veterans in the brigade have begun to adapt to the comfortable life in the brigade, so it is now a lot more lively.

Over the past week, as September 1st got closer, their training became less and less, and instead the instructors began to give them more educational lessons.

"The education notes need to be made up. The instructor said that you veterans also need to make up your education notes."

"Make up for the education notes? I can't make up for anything! I can't make up for anything at all!"

The corporal stood on the stool with arrogance written all over his face.

But his squad leader shook his head helplessly.

This scene was happening in every class except Class 1.

"Squad leader, I have asked my fellow villagers to send all your things back to you. I think my master's wife and others will be able to collect them in the next two days."

"Then squad leader, are you really going to leave your front transport bag to me?"

Ji Baichang held Chen Ting's black front transport bag and looked at Chen Ting with some emotion.
