Chapter 119
It was dark the next day, and several recruits in the same room were still sleeping soundly. When Fu Lanhua woke up, she vaguely felt that there was another person next to her. This person fell asleep so close to her that even her slight breathing
It all sounded real. She thought it was someone else.
The person next to her was not sleeping properly, so she accidentally squeezed in together with her. It was dark in the room and she couldn't see anything, and she couldn't turn on the light, so she had to push the person, saying: It's very crowded for both of them to sleep like this.
Everyone felt uncomfortable and moved to one side.
Who knows, her push didn't matter, the man suddenly sat up and asked loudly: "Is the time up? Is it time to get up?"
Her yelling woke up most of the female soldiers in the same room. One female soldier asked: "It's still early, isn't it? What's the fuss about?".
Only then did Fu Lanhua know who this person was. It turned out that she, Xiong Yan, and Ye Hong had made an agreement last night. Today, Sunday morning, without waiting for the wake-up call, the three of them agreed to get up at four o'clock in the morning and start training.
Fu Lanhua warned: "No one is allowed to scream, so as not to wake everyone up, and no one is allowed to be late."
Ye Hong said confidently: "Anyway, I'm fine. I'll be able to wake up by then."
But Xiong Yan was worried that she would never wake up. She had been thinking wildly and couldn't fall asleep even after midnight. So she thought of a way and moved the bedding next to Fu Lanhua in the middle of the night, so that she could be safe and sound.
I've already fallen asleep. Anyway, I'll know as soon as Fu Lanhua gets up.
Fu Lanhua raised her eyes and looked out the window. The gray night sky was still full of stars. She estimated the time and found that it was probably only around three o'clock in the morning. So she turned over and said to Xiong Yan: "Stop talking, so as not to make any noise."
Wake up the others, well, it’s still early, let’s have a good sleep.”
Fu Lanhua fell asleep, but Xiong Yan couldn't fall asleep no matter what. She was afraid that if she fell asleep, she would delay the training time. The more this time, the more random thoughts people will have. She opened her eyes wide and looked up.
The dark roof made me think: Why am I like this?
How shameful? The little sisters who came with me all performed very well, Ye Hong, Cheng Lin... Well, if this matter spreads to the family... How can parents rest assured? They also
Do you think your daughter is not up to par? Mom and dad, how are you doing now...
Xiong Yan's eyes turned red when she thought of this, tears fell down her cheeks, and the pillow towel was cold. She turned over and sat up, quickly put on her clothes, tightened her belt, and quietly
She stepped out of the dormitory and walked straight towards the woods. Who among the sisters in the room didn't know what she was going to do? Of course, no one noticed or noticed her actions.
Xiong Yan walked out of the room and stood on the steps and looked around. The sky was still so dark and the whole camp was silent. She walked down the steps with a sudden heart, walked along the corridor, passed through the playground, and came to
By the woods where they stayed yesterday afternoon.
The early morning in winter was extremely cold. The morning breeze blew, and from time to time there was a "hissing" howl in the gaps in the forest. Xiong Yan glanced around, and felt that it was so quiet that it was scary. She couldn't help shivering, and wanted to go back to the barracks.
But in a flash of thought, she remembered her training mission again, and resolutely made up her mind: I will never give up until I train well this time! So, she organized
She looked at her military appearance, stood at attention, walked in unison, and turned back! She shouted the password to herself in her heart... She practiced every move very seriously. She called out the password and did the movements by herself. She had mastered all the essentials quite well.
After completing the entire set of movements, she followed the queue instructions and requirements given by the instructor, and there were basically no too many mistakes or irregular steps.
Even Xiong Yan herself was puzzled: It's really strange. Isn't it good to practice alone? Why do I make a fool of myself with everyone? What's the problem?
She was thinking about it in her mind, but she couldn't help but muttered: "What's going on?"
"Because you are timid." The sudden voice startled Xiong Yan. She turned around and took a closer look. It turned out to be Fu Lanhua, the "temporary teacher", and Ye Hong beside her. Their sudden appearance made Xiong Yan very nervous.
Happy, she shouted: "Sister Lanhua, are you here?"
Ye Hong quickly corrected her at the side: "Hey, hey, you're not allowed to call me that, you should call me comrade teacher."
"Yes, comrade teacher, recruit Xiong Yan is training in formation, please give instructions." Xiong Yan showed a standard military salute.
Ye Hong looked Xiong Yan up and down seriously with his hands behind his back, then waved his hand and said: "Take a break, take a break, continue to practice." As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Hong couldn't help but laugh "Pfft".
.
"Hahahaha..." The third sisters actually laughed together. "Shhh--" Fu Lanhua signaled them to stop laughing with her hands, and she whispered: "Quiet, everyone hasn't gotten up yet, be careful of being discovered by the sentry.
"
"Comrade Teacher Fu, do you want to start training?" Xiong Yan asked.
"Hey, hey, no, no, no, where did the associate teacher come from? Is he a full teacher, okay?" Ye Hong corrected her story sarcastically.
Xiong Yan explained: "I said 'pay', not the deputy of the chief and deputy."
Ye Hong said: "That's not okay. From today on, she is your full teacher, and I am your associate teacher."
Xiong Yan smiled and said: "Okay then, from now on I will call Sister Lanhua the teacher, and I will call you Ye the assistant teacher."
"Hmm... Why does it sound so awkward? It doesn't sound good." Ye Hong touched her ears and thought for a moment, then said, "I'd better call them Teacher No. 1 and Teacher No. 2 from now on."
"Okay, okay, silly girls, stop teasing, it's getting late, let's start training." Fu Lanhua raised her left hand and shouted: "Line up."
Xiong Yan and Ye Hong quickly lined up and stood in line. The first command given by Fu Lanhua was: "Take a break and stand at attention! Clean up the military appearance and discipline!"
A fish-white color appeared in the sky, and the stars gradually became sparse; the cool morning breeze gently blew the dead branches that had fallen leaves, and Fu Lanhua's command voice continued to be heard from the edge of the woods: "Stand at attention, with your five fingers together, bend naturally, and your middle fingers facing each other.
Accurate trouser seam line, okay, turn back and walk in unison! One, two, one, one, two, one..."
All the movements Xiong Yan made at the beginning were basically easy to follow, whether it was turning left or right; this backward turn was almost impossible, but it might be okay if you practice it a few more times. You can take your time with this.
She also walked smoothly, Fu Lanhua was very happy, and Ye Hong was quite satisfied with leading her.
Fu Lanhua's steps were to make Xiong Yan first easy and then difficult. It only took one morning. The other movements were more standardized over and over again. After mastering the essentials, practice a few more times to meet the requirements stipulated in the regulations. However, the most critical movement below is the most fatal.
The main reason why she was criticized several times was for "walking forward"! This action of hers has always been regarded as a laughing stock among the recruits in the company, and it is also Fu Lanhua's biggest headache.
However, Fu Lanhua has been mentally prepared. As long as she corrects Xiong Yan's "goose step", she will win. She has practiced all the movements two or three times, and she is just short of mastering them. Although it is winter, Xiong Yan and Ye Hong
Beads of sweat broke out slightly on his forehead, plus
The white hot breath they exhaled stuck to their eyebrows and eyelashes, and quickly condensed into crystal clear ice balls. The fluff of their cotton hats and exposed hair were all dyed white by the frost and snow; their beautiful little faces were white and rosy from the cold.
, even more handsome, charming, and charming.
Fu Lanhua looked at the two of them at this time and felt pity. "Let's take a rest." She took out a handkerchief from her pocket and handed it to Xiong Yan, and said with concern: "Wipe the sweat. Are you tired?"
"Sister Lanhua, please use it, I have it here." Xiong Yan took out her handkerchief and wiped her face while saying, "It's not too tiring. No matter how tired I am, I will practice it."
Ye Hong praised and said: "Well done, you have great ambition. From now on, I must change my habit of being petty and crying. I am the same. We are all soldiers, so we must have the appearance and style of soldiers."
We must learn from Sister Lanhua in the future, right?"
"What can you learn from me? To be honest, we don't need to do anything earth-shattering. We just need to do our own jobs well. No matter where we go in the future, whether we are in the army or when we return to the place where we are recovering, we will be able to do our best.
We must all be worthy of our own conscience, worthy of the training of the army, worthy of our parents and fellow villagers in our hometown, and this is enough."
"Well, Lan Hua is right. My parents told me the same thing, and asked me to study hard and train in the army." Xiong Yan murmured, "I just always miss my parents...
…”
Ye Hong was anxious: "Look, what you just said was good, but you made a mistake again. I'm just afraid that you will make others feel uncomfortable."
It can be seen that Ye Hong is actually very tough on her lips, but in her heart she is homesick and misses her parents just like Xiong Yan, but she doesn't talk about it.
Of course, Fu Lanhua has a deep understanding of this. Yes, a student who has just walked out of school, a girl who has never left her parents since she was a child, suddenly comes to the unfamiliar place in the north, how can she think about it?
Home? Can you not miss your parents? What's more, Xiong Yan is a girl who has just turned sixteen.
It stands to reason that Ye Hong and Xiong Yan are both children who grew up in the army with their parents, and are no strangers to army life. Why do they still miss their parents so much? This may be a common trait among people, or it is human nature.
.
The early morning wind in the north was like a knife. After training for a while, my body felt warm. But after taking a short rest, a cold wind blew again. Fu Lanhua's body trembled and she couldn't help but shiver. She asked: "Are you cold?"
Not cold?"
Ye Hong and Xiong Yan replied at the same time: "Cold."
"Okay, let's continue practicing." Fu Lanhua stood up and said, "Let's practice goose-stepping. This subject is Xiong Yan's weakest, so we must practice it quickly."
Ye Hong suggested: "Sister Lanhua, I think the problem with Xiong Yan's goose-stepping is her arm swing and kicking. As soon as she hears the command to goose-step, the two are out of balance. In my opinion, we should practice it first."
Swinging your arms and kicking your legs will get better once you get used to it, right?"
"Well, the suggestion is good, just do as you say." Fu Lanhua said: "I will give the command, Ye Hong will demonstrate, and Xiong Yan will follow the instructions."
