I enlisted four times! My former unit blacklisted me.

"Old Wu, now I have to admit, I'm not as good as you."

In the sanitation team's courtyard, the two were smoking. This was the first time Zhou Haibo had said such a thing to Wu Hanfeng.

"Um?"

Wu Hanfeng was taken aback, clearly not expecting Zhou Haibo to say that, and grinned, "Of course you're not as good as me! Yours is so small!"

Zhou Haibo: "???"

Startled for a moment, Zhou Haibo immediately turned red-faced and roared, "That's not what I meant!"

"Can't you even think straight?!"

Wu Hanfeng: "??? Not this one? Then which one is it? You can't even match endurance."

Zhou Haibo: "..."

He stared intently at Wu Hanfeng for a while, then smiled wryly again: "Perhaps, this is your advantage."

"Always finds a quick solution without embarrassing anyone."

He didn't think Wu Hanfeng was really that stupid.

Instead, they cleverly use this way of changing the subject to make you feel better.

After all, he had been a squad leader for so many years and had led quite a few soldiers.

But it didn't produce many commendable results.

But what about Wu Hanfeng?

I spent six of those seven years in the military.

During those six years, he was the deputy squad leader for most of the time.

But within the troupe itself, it's no exaggeration to say that Wu Hanfeng has countless students!

Logically speaking, in the military, the camaraderie between soldiers and their squad leaders should be better than that between soldiers and their deputy squad leaders.

But Wu Hanfeng was an exception!

Over the years, when the retired veterans called back to chat, they didn't have much to say to him.

But once Wu Hanfeng answers the phone, the two can chat from morning till night.

That relationship, you wouldn't be lying if you said it wasn't strong.

As for those who stayed in the army to continue serving, not to mention others, Wang Erniu alone is enough to show how much the soldiers under Wu Hanfeng's command loved and respected him when he was the deputy squad leader.

Not to mention the medical team, the squad leaders and platoon leaders from the Second Company, the motor transport company, the regimental headquarters, and so on!

Every single one of them, if Wu Hanfeng said the word, would be someone who would disregard discipline and charge into battle for him!

Now, Wu Hanfeng has been officially promoted.

In just one month, the entire class underwent a dramatic transformation.

Not only did his military skills improve dramatically, but the new recruits' awe and respect for Wu Hanfeng were something Zhou Haibo could never match.

This can be seen from the few words I mentioned about Wu Hanfeng during the final sprint of the five kilometers just now.

Seeing Zhou Haibo's somewhat dejected expression, Wu Hanfeng laughed and scolded:

"What the hell are you doing?"

"It's just leading a few soldiers. I'll give them back to you after I'm in the company."

Zhou Haibo rolled his eyes at him. "I'm not that petty. I just feel that we're both class monitors, so why is there such a big difference between us?"

Wu Hanfeng laughed and said, "That's obvious. People may not be divided into different classes, but they should be able to distinguish between different abilities."

"In the military, some people can only serve as conscripts and can't become non-commissioned officers, like I was back then."

"Yes, some can't even be soldiers in combat units; they can only raise pigs."

"But there are also those who rise from conscripts to officers, such as company commanders, regimental commanders, and division commanders."

"So, it depends on who you're comparing yourself to."

"You only see how I've brought Class 1 to this level in just one month, but have you ever considered that it took me seven years to get to this point?"

"In these seven years, I've gone around in circles, wasting so much precious time and youth."

"And you became class monitor in your third year. It took me seven years to reach your level. So what if you let me surpass you once?"

"Thinking about it this way, don't you feel like you're much better than me?"

"Huh?"

After listening to Wu Hanfeng's analysis, Zhou Haibo immediately felt that it made a lot of sense, and grinned, "That's right, so I'm still better than you."

Wu Hanfeng scoffed, "That depends on what aspect. You're not as big as me, and your stamina isn't as good either."

"With just this one point, I can completely crush you!"

Zhou Haibo angrily retorted, "Bullshit! Let's have a contest if you dare!"

Wu Hanfeng laughed and said, "Look, look. Generally speaking, if you are really capable, when others say you can't, normal people just laugh it off, because you know you can do it."

"But you only get truly angry when someone tells you you can't do it, and you know you really can't."

Zhou Haibo: "..."

…………

The operating room door opened.

As expected, both of them are fine.

She was already awake when she was wheeled out.

Upon seeing Wu Hanfeng, the two of them, despite feeling weak and exhausted, still grinned.

Wu Hanfeng also laughed and said, "After this experience, you won't be able to avoid running for excellence even if you want to."

"Take good care of yourself and get back to the team soon!"

"Yes, sir!"

The two nodded emphatically.

Anyone who has run a long-distance race, or even served in the military, knows this very well.

When you've given it your all, broken through your own limits, and successfully completed the standard task, then you've truly broken through!

Whether it's physical fitness or mindset, it's a qualitative leap!

When you return to the training ground, you can perform the same standard with ease!

Just like a certain character in a TV series, after breaking through the abdominal barbell challenge, he regained his confidence and adjusted his mindset. He was no longer afraid of anything and went on a winning streak, becoming the king of soldiers in the army group!

When they returned to their unit, Wu Hanfeng and Zhou Haibo were stunned to see the table in the barracks filled with family buckets.

"Brother Feng, Deputy Squad Leader!"

Zhao Yihang excitedly went to greet him, "This was delivered by the regimental commander's communications squad leader."

"They said it was a reward from the regimental commander to our class."

"Oh?"

Wu Hanfeng was slightly surprised. "That stingy old rooster has actually come to his senses?"

The new recruits looked at Wu Hanfeng with expectant faces: "Brother Feng...then we..."

Wu Hanfeng waved his hand and said, "Eat up! We can't let the commander down."

"After you finish eating, Yihang, go to the medical team and take care of those two who got dizzy from running around tonight."

"Also, our class will keep two buckets. The rest will be sent to the cooks and the company commander."

"what?"

The new recruits looked reluctant to leave, and Wu Hanfeng slapped each of them, saying, "So much food, can you all finish it?"

"Besides, eating so much at once, the calories will make you unable to get out of bed tomorrow."

Zhao Yihang covered his head: "Then why were they given to the company commander and the cooks, and not to the other squads?"

Wu Hanfeng rolled his eyes at him. "Can't you be a little smarter? Is this enough for the whole company to score?"

"Besides, these aren't snacks we buy ourselves that we can just share; these are a reward from the group."

"They have their own squad leader. Me, representing their squad leader, to reward their squad's new recruits? What will their squad leader think? Plus, they don't run as well as our squad; their squad leader will think we're showing off! Don't you guys understand any human psychology?"

"The company headquarters and the mess hall are full of veterans. Besides, if we get along well with the company commander and the mess hall, it will definitely benefit our squad in the future."

Upon hearing this, the new recruits immediately understood and all gave Wu Hanfeng a thumbs up.

"Brother Feng is cunning... no! Clever! Clever!"

Wu Hanfeng: "..."

"Alright, stop eating, everyone. Get fully equipped, ten kilometers!"

The new recruits: "???"
