The training was carried out intensely. Fu Lanhua and Ye Hong were assigned to a recruit class, and they unknowingly established a very good sister-like relationship during their time together.

The instructor who trained Fu Lanhua and the others was a twenty-five or six-year-old female soldier named Lai. The recruits called her "Teacher Lai". Although she was not too old, she looked very mature, stable and serious.

He never said a word to the new recruits like them, and he was even more strict in disciplining the new recruits.

Even worse than the school teachers, so the recruits were afraid of her and never dared to joke or reason with her. She was only seen wearing a four-pocket top. People knew that as long as there were soldiers wearing four pockets, they would

She must be a cadre in the army, although her position and official position cannot be distinguished.

The training subjects for them at the beginning were to line up and walk, and the whole day consisted of standing at attention, counting, taking a break, walking in unison, walking forward; and also looking to the right, looking to the left; turning right, turning left, and turning backward.

Wait. Most people find it very boring. Although they have been trained in these things in school, they are not as serious and formal as they are now.

The girls thought it was quite fun and enjoyable at first, but they were often criticized by the teacher for this. However, during the subsequent training, they felt that their physical fitness was insufficient. Every time they took breaks, they were all so tired that their backs were sore.

It hurts. In the winter in the north, I have to continue training no matter how windy or snowy it is. My delicate little hands and clean little face are as cold as red apples in autumn.

Among them, except for Fu Lanhua, who had done more or less manual labor and farm work in the countryside, she had been tested and exercised by the scorching heat and cold in the fields. Although she felt a little tired at this time, she could still hold on.

Liveable.

Then there is Cheng Lin. This girl is born with a lively personality. No matter how tired she is, she is always happy and cheerful. She always has a smile on her face. She seems not to know what it is to be worried, sad and angry. Besides, she has been in the army since she was a child.

The girl who grew up in the army is very familiar with almost everything in the army. It seems that she can persevere.

The rest of the girls are all like pampered young ladies. How have they ever experienced such physical training? Especially Ye Hong and Xiong Yan. Even though they are girls from military families like Cheng Lin, compared with Cheng Lin, they look...

That would only make you weak and have no power to restrain a chicken.

Especially when walking forward, Xiong Yan could never walk well. She was called out of the queue several times by the instructor to train alone, and even asked one person to walk exclusively in front of all the female soldiers in the recruit company. In fact, the more this happened, the more she felt

I feel stressed, and my walking becomes more and more unnatural. Sometimes my hands and feet don’t follow my lead, and I’m more likely to make mistakes when I’m in a panic. It’s ridiculous.

What's strange is that she walked well in step. When the teacher gave the command to walk forward, she unconsciously moved her hands and feet. That is to say, according to the normal requirements, when stepping forward with her left leg, she should move her right arm forward and move her right leg forward.

When she moved her left arm forward, she did exactly the opposite. For this formation method, she was often scolded by the teacher.

What she couldn't tolerate was that her actions often caused ridicule and booing from all the soldiers in the company. She felt very humiliated, she hated herself for not living up to expectations, and she blamed others for laughing at her. After nearly a month, she still had not made any progress, so she

Often after training, she hid alone and secretly cried several times. She had never suffered such blows and grievances since she was a child. A little girl is a little girl, and she will cry when she is frustrated. When she is at home, she can act coquettishly and cry to her parents.

But what can she do now?

After all, Ye Hong and Xiong Yan came out of the same county party committee compound, and she was a few years older than Xiong Yan. She observed problems more carefully and considered things more. When she found that something was wrong with Xiong Yan these days, she couldn't help but Dare to tell others, let alone reflect to the teacher.

That day was Saturday. After the morning training, Ye Hong saw Teacher Lai calling Xiong Yan to the company headquarters again. She didn’t know what Teacher Lai said to Xiong Yan. After lunch, the company informed all the recruits to rest, but Xiong Yan She went to the company headquarters again. When she came out of the company gate, with tears in her eyes, she walked alone into the woods. So she found Fu Lanhua and whispered to her: "Sister Lanhua, Xiong Yan must have been beaten by Teacher Lai again today. Now she ran into the woods in front of the barracks and was crying again. You see..."

Fu Lanhua looked in the direction of Ye Hong's finger. It was very quiet there. It was really suitable for a person to think about problems alone. She said, "Let's go see her."

"Oh, it's really difficult for her. She's only sixteen years old, and I'm afraid she hasn't done anything at home. Poor little girl, why can't she always do well? I feel ashamed when she is criticized." Ye Hong Like whining.

When they found Xiong Yan, she was already crying like a tearful person. Fu Lanhua knelt down and took out a handkerchief and handed it to Xiong Yan. She did not comfort her. After Xiong Yan wiped away her tears, she asked: "You feel aggrieved, don't you? Is our Teacher Lai very mean? Do you resent her very much?"

Xiong Yan sat on the ground and lowered her head in silence. When she heard Fu Lanhua's question, she couldn't help but shed tears again. When Ye Hong saw Xiong Yan crying, she felt distressed and angry. She said, "What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?" Just say what you want, what's the matter with crying all the time? You!"

Fu Lanhua waved her hand and sat down next to Xiong Yan. She said to Xiong Yan patiently: "Look, we all joined the army from the same county. Among us, you are the youngest, so we treat you as the youngest." Treat us like a little sister. We feel bad when we see you like this. If you can trust me, what do you think? There is no one else now. If you have anything to say, just tell me and Ye Hong. If there is any problem between the three of us, Let’s work together to find a solution, okay?”

Xiong Yan raised her tearful eyes and looked at Fu Lanhua and Ye Hong. She hesitated and said: "Sister Lanhua, I can't adapt to the intensity of training. I miss home and my parents, woo woo woo..."

Xiong Yan sobbed again. Alas, a little girl is a little girl. Fu Lanhua sighed and said: "Ah, to be honest, everyone misses home and misses their parents. I do too. Ye Hong, you miss home." Do you miss your parents?"

At this time, tears were flashing in Ye Hong's eyes. She nodded and said, "I have thought about it for a long time, but I am embarrassed to say it."

Fu Lanhua hugged the two of them together like a big sister and said kindly: "What's the shame? Is this human nature? However, we are homesick and we can't have other thoughts. "

Fu Lanhua's worry was not unreasonable. Xiong Yan murmured: "Sister Lanhua, Sister Ye Hong, I don't want to do this anymore, I don't want to be a soldier anymore. Maybe I'm not a soldier and I want to go home."

"Ah? What did you say?" Ye Hong screamed when she heard this. She said angrily: "Do you think this is just a family? Is it a joke? This is the army! You want to come? Just come and leave whenever you want? That’s nonsense!”

Fu Lanhua said: "Actually, Ye Hong is right. You must not have that kind of thinking. Look at other sisters, including us, who has not come through this way? Training, training, studying, and organizing housework. This

They all should be learned, didn’t Teacher Lai say? Every comrade

Enlisting in the army requires rigorous study and training. To make everyone transform from an ordinary citizen to a truly qualified soldier, they must practice hard in this way. Of course, Teacher Lai’s attitude towards you is a bit harsh. I think she

That’s because you hate iron but can’t make it into steel. What do you think?”

"That's right. In fact, Teacher Lai is strict and keeps a straight face all day long. She is not just targeting you. Who is she not like this to?" Ye Hong muttered.

After the two tried to persuade her, Xiong Yan's mood began to improve. She smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Lanhua, Sister Ye Hong, thank you for caring about me. What should I do in the future?"

Fu Lanhua smiled and encouraged her and said: "Be brave, work hard at everything, and complete every task seriously, including queues and future studies. Not only you, we all have to grit our teeth and persevere. Persistence is victory!"

"

Ye Hong also echoed: "Sister Lanhua is right. We sisters must work hard together to fight for us. Grit your teeth and persevere. We are children who grew up in the army. We must not embarrass our parents!"

"

"Well said!" The three girls turned around and saw that Teacher Lai had already walked behind them. They immediately stood up and saluted, saying in unison: "Hello, Teacher Lai!"

Teacher Lai waved his hand and said seriously: "Sit down, what you just said was very good. Keep talking."

Teacher Lai sat on the floor, but the three girls still stood there without moving. Teacher Lai looked up at them and asked, "What? Don't you dare to sit down?"

Fu Lanhua pushed Ye Hong and Xiong Yan and said, "Come, let's sit down and chat with Teacher Lai. Sit down, sit down quickly."

When they sat down, Teacher Lai said: "I heard your conversation just now. It's very good. I appreciate you having such energy to not be afraid of difficulties. I just like people who dare to fight and face reality. Come on,

Please share your thoughts and opinions on training during this recent period.”

The three of them saw Teacher Lai being very serious. You looked at me and I looked at you, but no one had the intention to speak. Teacher Lai asked: "What? Do you have any opinions about me? Are you afraid of me? Oh, don't be afraid.

, feel free to speak out if you have anything to say. Now is the time to have a heart-to-heart talk with you, and it is not the time for classes or exercises. Talk about it.

Look, it doesn’t matter if you’re wrong. Fu Lanhua, I think you have performed very well since you joined the army. You are excellent in various training courses and queue essentials. After this period of training and study, your military and political qualities have improved greatly.

You are making rapid progress and I am very optimistic about you. You are a good prospect. Let’s talk about it first.”

Fu Lanhua forced a smile and said: "I don't have anything to talk about. The training during this period has been very hard. However, I feel that since I have chosen to join the army, I must continue to work in the army with peace of mind, no matter how hard it is and how tired I am,

As a new recruit who has just joined the army, we must grit our teeth and persevere."
