A generation of soldiers begins with Feng Yuxiu traveling through time and space with Xu Sanduo

Chapter 23: Squad Leader, Wash My Feet Well

"Squad Leader Shi Jin, what do you mean?"

The veteran soldier who was being assessed was pulled away by the world and frowned.

Shi Jin chuckled, "Old Wang, you and I have been friends for several years, right?"

Lao Wang instantly became alert and took two steps back. "I have no say in the assessment. Who dares to change it? Wu Liuyi came in second because he couldn't run as fast as others. Even a regimental commander who broke the military assessment record would be alarmed."

"No, no, it's not about Wu Liuyi. Can you please not tell anyone about that first place winner, and don't submit the results to the regiment headquarters. How about waiting until all the assessments are over and submitting them together?"

Old Wang was puzzled. He looked at Shi Jin deeply and nodded. "For the sake of all these years, please don't do anything rash this time. The commander of your 7th Steel Company has connections, but second place is second place. It can't change the first place. That kid broke the entire army record! Even the king can't change it."

Shi Jin smiled and patted Lao Wang's shoulder without saying anything.

But I was a little anxious inside: Company commander, you have to hurry up, this kid is crazy now, breaking records continuously, I can't cover it up anymore!
Wu Liuyi leaned leisurely against the tree and watched Feng Yuxiu's back as he left.

"Sergeant, what's going on with Xu Sanduo? Isn't this an assessment for the entire army? Why is he here?" Wu Liuyi stopped Shi Jin who was about to leave and asked hurriedly.

Shi Jin glanced at Wu Liuyi and patted his shoulder with a forced smile, "Liuyi, you ran well this time."

"Not bad, I broke my own record. It's not easy to be number one. Why do you look so bad, squad leader?"

Shi Jin rubbed his cheeks and said, "Nothing, just have a good rest and don't let down your opponent in the last shooting."

After saying that, he walked towards the direction where Feng Yuxiu left with a worried look on his face.

"Problem." Wu Liuyi raised his eyebrows. He felt something was strange.

In the past, when he broke records, the veterans would chat with him, but this time it was a little unusual.

"Deputy Captain Wu, have you seen Xu Sanduo?" Chengcai asked as he rushed across the finish line panting and put down his backpack with difficulty.

Wu Liuyi said coldly, "I am his guardian?"

"No, no, I saw that guy during the test just now. He ran very fast. At this rate, he would have rushed to first place long ago. Why can't I see him?"

Chengcai’s words made Wu Liuyi stunned, and he slowly looked in the direction he came from.

"Could it be..."

At this moment, Wu Liuyi's shoulders were no longer as resolute, and a trace of intense struggle and panic appeared on his face.

"Sergeant, may I ask who is the first one to cross the finish line?" Wu Liuyi rushed to the veteran who was taking the assessment and asked in a deep voice.

"Is this what you should be asking? Leave now and prepare for the final assessment!"

"So it's true."

Wu Liuyi took a deep breath, and the frustration on his face made Chengcai beside him confused.

"Deputy Wu?"

"There's still a chance. Shooting. He didn't even have the chance to practice with a gun in that grassland. He was defeated last time because of the shooting, and this time is no exception!"

Wu Liuyi's competitive spirit reached its peak.

Chengcai's face turned completely sinister, his lips trembling and pale. "Impossible! How could Sandiku be first? He... still has a chance. Deputy Wu is right. He still has a chance!"

"I'm one of the top three sharpshooters in the company. How can he, a dirtbag from the grassland, compete with me? Even if you get full marks in the first three tests, but you mess up the last one, you'll still fail. Your overall score will be a hindrance!"

Chengcai quickly adjusted his mentality and walked towards the shooting range.

-

Shi Jin felt that this world was no longer the world he knew.

Especially this familiar army made him a little confused.

At the company entrance, Feng Yuxiu sat leisurely on a mat, while Ma Jun in front of him lowered his head and washed his feet vigorously.

"Squad leader, I told you that opening a foot massage parlor after you retire is a promising idea. Your skills are amazing."

Feng Yuxiu sighed deeply. The fatigue from the rapid run was relieved by the hot water, and he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed all over.

Ma Jun said nothing and rubbed Feng Yuxiu's feet seriously.

He ignored the surprised look of the old soldier behind him. "Lift your foot!"

Ma Jun stood up and poured out the foot washing water, then went to the faucet to wash his hands.

Standing straight in front of Feng Yuxiu, he said, "I admit defeat. There's nothing shameful about accepting defeat, but I won't accept it."

Feng Yuxiu put on his shoes and socks, "What? Are you still planning a fight? Squad leader, didn't I just ask you to wash my feet? Why do you hold a grudge for so long?"

He had originally planned to find Ma Jun and completely destroy him during the five-kilometer forced march.

But he was a veteran of surveillance all the way.

There was no chance of attack.

Moreover, Ma Jun ran too slowly and there were witnesses everywhere, so they gave up this idea.

"I lost, I lost, but there's still one last thing? The shooting test. Do you dare?"

Feng Yuxiu narrowed his eyes and was about to speak.

But he was slapped in the face.

"Xu Sanduo, what are you doing?"

Shi Jin stared at Feng Yuxiu with a stern face.

Feng Yuxiu looked coldly and said nothing.

"You are a veteran, how could you do this?" Shi Jin stared at Ma Jun with helplessness.

Ma Jun sneered and pointed at Feng Yuxiu, "Let's see how it goes."

After saying that, he went to prepare.

Only then did Shi Jin look at Feng Yuxiu seriously.

In just a few months, this peasant child who came from a winding rural area now has a dark complexion and rough skin.

When he touched Feng Yuxiu's hands, he was stunned. The calluses on his palms could not be formed without years of practice.

But in just a few months, he had reached this level.

"Xu Sanduo, does the 7th Steel Company still want to come back?" Shi Jin asked with his teeth bared.

"Squad leader, are you treating me with special care now because of my father or because I broke the record?"

Feng Yuxiu's abrupt words left Shi Jin unable to react for a moment.

"I'm going to the shooting range first, squad leader." Feng Yuxiu walked towards the shooting range indifferently.

Shi Jin frowned. "For his father's sake? What does that mean?"

-

"Xu Sanduo, Xu Sanduo, wait for me."

Chengcai caught up with Feng Yuxiu, panting.

Feng Yuxiu continued to move forward without any pause.

"Hey, Sanduo, I'm the sharpshooter of the 7th Steel Company. Do you want me to teach you some tips for this shooting test?"

Seeing that Feng Yuxiu was ignoring him.

Chengcai gritted his teeth and shouted, "You failed at shooting in the recruit company. This is a crucial military assessment. If you do the same as last time, you'll really be on the Loess Plateau raising pigs."

"When you came here, your father asked me to take good care of you. After all, we are from the same hometown."

This sentence finally made Feng Yuxiu stop.

He slowly turned around, raised his right hand and punched Chengcai on the head with an expressionless face.

Success:
