War Military: From 1978

Chapter 55: The Second Life of a Warrior

"Old Li, I've decided. I won't call you a quack anymore!" He Weimin said seriously in the dormitory.

As he finished speaking, Dong Fang nodded and said, "Yes, you are saving the world and the people! Lao Li, you are this tonight!"

He gave a thumbs up!

"Hehe, I... I really didn't mean it!" Li Guoping smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Haha, whether it was intentional or not, you did a good job tonight. Tomorrow morning, the monitor will reward you with a bottle of milk!"

At this time, Lao Wang also spoke with a smile.

As the squad leader, he knew there was a plan for this evening.

But he knew he couldn't interrupt his training plan.

What's more, given everyone's previous state, it might be useless even if he reminded them in advance.

In fact, he himself didn't even notice that the deputy company commander and others had come in.

The squad leader is also a human being. He sleeps and wakes up at the same time as the other recruits. He was also woken up early yesterday morning and didn't fall asleep until just now. He couldn't bear it either.

Although the deputy company commander and his men didn't take his gun just now.

But if his gun was not taken, and all the guns in the class were taken, the whole class would be scolded and punished tomorrow, and he, as the squad leader, would definitely be in trouble too.

But now it’s different, now all the guns in his class are safe.

It can be expected that tomorrow he can hold his head high and quietly look at the sour faces of other squad leaders.

"Sergeant, is it true?" At this time, Li Guoping heard that there was milk to drink, and immediately looked over with a look of surprise.

"Of course it's true. Your squad leader treated you to a bottle of milk, so you can still afford it!"

Lao Wang smiled and said, "Alright, go to sleep, but be alert. Don't be stupid and not realize your gun has been taken away!"

"This"

"Squad leader, why don't we put the guns in the armory!"

Some people hesitated, while others lacked confidence in themselves and came up with this idea directly.

But obviously this was just a dream.

"What are you thinking?" Lao Wang said angrily: "If it can be put into the armory, then won't you be asked to put it directly into the armory when you come back?

Anyway, if you're worried, just figure it out on your own! I'm going to sleep!"

After saying that, he lay straight and didn't say a word.

For a moment, everyone else in the dormitory went a little crazy.

I'm still very sleepy. Although this short stimulation made everyone feel a little more alert, I haven't had enough sleep for two days. Sleeping for an hour now is of no use at all.

"Deputy squad leader, what should we do?" someone asked Chu An.

Chu An was also worried. After thinking for a while, he said, "You guys go to sleep first. In half an hour, I'll call Gong Liqun to pick me up. Those of us sleeping on the lower bunks, hold on for a while. If you can't do it, get up and do push-ups. Each of us should do half an hour to get through tonight!"

"This"

"Deputy class leader, I'm so sleepy!"

Some people really didn't want to agree to Chu An, but Chu An looked over and said, "Make a sacrifice!"

Chu An was too lazy to draw lots or play finger-guessing games, mainly because there was no need for it.

It won’t be long before dawn, and it’s convenient to do push-ups from the lower bunk.

For a moment, the new recruits in the lower bunk were a little reluctant, but they still agreed.

Then, Chu An looked across and said, "Squad leader, can you lend us your watch?"

Qiu Wei's watch was taken away when he left. Now if he wants to check the time, he can only ask Lao Wang for help.

Lao Wang didn't say anything, but the hand wearing the watch threw it directly to the edge of the bed.

Chu An was stunned for a moment, then quietly got up and took off his watch.

"Deputy, can you hold on?"

Seeing Chu An coming back with the watch, someone hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

"You have to hold on even if you can't. You guys go to sleep first!" Chu An didn't say anything else.

The gun is our second life, that's what the company commander said on the day we issued the guns. At the same time, the squad leaders and others also often said this during this period.

Just imagine, if you lose your gun tonight, you will definitely be in trouble tomorrow.

Soon, the dormitory became quiet.

Everyone was still very sleepy and could fall asleep as soon as they wanted. Only Chu An sat on the bed, pinching himself from time to time.

Before today, Chu An had never thought that half an hour would be so difficult to endure.

Fortunately, it was only half an hour. When the time was up, Chu An pinched Gong Liqun next door to wake him up, gave him instructions repeatedly, gave him the watch, and then lay down to sleep.

There was no more trouble that night.

Although the deputy company commander and his men did come again afterwards, there was someone on guard. As soon as he arrived, he shouted for an emergency assembly, which left the second company commander and the instructor speechless.

The next day.

The reveille is not sounded until seven o'clock.

When the wake-up call sounded, some uneasy noises suddenly arose in other classes.

Without people like Li Guoping, the other classes would not be so lucky.

The guns were taken away by the instructor and the deputy company commander.

The same is true for Class 5 next to Chuan and his classmates.

They were all sleeping like pigs, separated only by a wall, but the two emergency calls for assembly by Li Guoping and He Weimin behind him last night did not wake them up.

"Look at you? You still have the nerve to stand here. What did I say? The gun is your second life, don't you know?

What if it wasn’t the instructors and the others who went to get the guns last night, but the Vietnamese devils used daggers to cut your necks?

Are you all reporting to the Hell now?"

On the playground, after the entire company assembled, except for the fourth squad who stood on one side of the formation with their guns on their backs, all the recruits from the remaining squads stood in front of Tong Lianzhong with their heads lowered.

"A bunch of pigs, no, you are worse than pigs. When a pig is sleeping, if you pull its teeth, it will wake up!
what about you?
If you really go to the battlefield, are you all prepared to become martyrs?"

Tong Lianzhong stood in front of the team and kept spitting.

At this moment, only the people from Class 4 dared to look up.

After lashing out for five or six minutes, Tong Lianzhong finally said, "You've already lost your life, so don't even eat. Today, all of you must submit a 3,000-word self-criticism, and the squad leader 5,000. Submit it before lunch, or you'll skip lunch!"

After saying that, he looked towards Class 4 and said, "Class 4, go to the cafeteria and eat!"

"Yes!"

Led by Lao Wang, everyone in Class 4 turned around collectively under the envious gazes of other classes.

At this moment, the gratitude of everyone in Class 4 towards Li Guoping burst out from the bottom of their hearts.

A three thousand word review.

Terrible!

Chu An even wanted to kiss Li Guoping, not only would he save three thousand yuan in review, but he would also get a breakfast!

He was very hungry if he didn't eat a meal now. If he didn't have breakfast, he would probably feel very uncomfortable.

it's good now.

Breakfast was saved.

"Deputy squad leader, take them to the cafeteria. I'll go buy milk for Li Guoping!" On the way to the cafeteria, Lao Wang gave the order with a smile.

"Ah~ No. No need, squad leader, no need to buy it!" Li Guoping's legs were floating now.

Along the way, everyone in the class never stopped thanking him!

Very cool and comfortable!

It seems that it is not so important whether to drink this milk or not!

"Haha, squad leader will naturally do what he promised you!" Old Wang smiled.

Although their class monitor's 5,000-word self-criticism was just talk, they definitely didn't get to eat breakfast.

The key point is that all the other squad leaders have been punished, but he is fine. He gave the bottle of milk willingly.
