The two went around to the woods behind the row house and sat on the edge of the ditch.

"If you don't mind, I'll call you Lao Zeng in the future." said solemnly.

So called, solemn also thought for a long time.

After all, he is the squad leader in his post. Although Zeng Jiangao is in the military rank, the military pays attention to duty obedience.

Calling it this way respects Zeng Jian and complies with army regulations.

"I don't mind, I don't mind." Zeng Jian smiled, waved his hand and said, "You can call me Xiao Zeng. When I was in the ministry, they all called me Xiao Zeng."

Zhuang Yan suddenly had a black line.

Big brother, you are older than me, and you are older than me. I call you Xiao Zeng? What's wrong with me?

"That doesn't work. You are a veteran. It's a fact. I'm the squad leader. You listen to me in training. In life, you're the big brother. There's no problem, and there's no conflict."

"Okay, it's just a title, you can call it whatever you want."

Zeng Jian's voice always sounded so gentle and polite.

"I have a question, if you don't mind, I want to ask." Zhuang Yan said.

Zeng Jian said: "If you ask, you will know everything."

Zhuang Yan was quite unexpected. He didn't expect Zeng Jian to agree without any hesitation.

"You came from the headquarters and served as a soldier for seven years..."

Zeng Jian corrected: "No, six years and four months, but according to the army's practice, they call me a seventh-year soldier."

Solemnly said: "Okay... I'll just say, you have been a soldier for so many years? Why did you suddenly come to our army and come to our Eighth Company to be an ordinary soldier?"

"Because I want to go to the military academy!" Zeng Jian still had that kind of gentle smile on his face, but his expression was serious, not like a joke: "I was selected to go to the headquarters as soon as I joined the army, and then I drove the chief all the time. As a driver, it’s been more than six years, I want to go to the military academy, but I don’t know anything, so I came here.”

Zhuang Yan felt completely unable to understand Zeng Jian's statement, and asked again: "You are the chief driver. It is not easy for you to take the military academy? Can't the headquarters apply for the military academy? You have been a soldier for more than six years, and you are going to be a volunteer. , what do you want to mention, isn't it very simple?"

"I was originally qualified." Zeng Jian said, "But I don't want to be a volunteer soldier. I'm a driver. If I want to go to a military school, I can only go to a logistics school. I don't want to be a logistics cadre. I wanted to be a general since I was a child. The chief said Now, if you want to be a general, you'd better study the command major, but Xiao Zeng, your military is too bad to take the test. I said that I haven't touched a gun since my recruits joined the company. I also know that I'm poor, but have you The remedy? The chief said that unless you go to the grassroots unit to learn from the recruits, if you want to go, I can let you go. I am familiar with the 1st division, and their training is very good... so I am here. "

This sounded absolutely flawless, but it seemed to be a very strange answer, which made Zhuang Yan speechless for half a minute.

Take a closer look at the words once built.

He is the chief driver. If he wants to be promoted, he can do it casually, but he doesn't mention it, because he is a driver, no matter whether it is a job or an entrance examination, he can only be a logistics cadre; I want to be a general...

So he chose to take the military command major, because this major has the greatest room for improvement in theory, and also has the highest ceiling in theory. 35xs

However, in the military command academy, you must test military basics and knowledge. Zeng Jian has been a soldier for seven years. Except for the recruits who have touched the rifle once, he has basically never practiced the rest of the time...

He drove the chief to and from get off work every day, or sent the chief to receive foreign guests, or went to the army to check on the spot.

However, after the recruit company, this fellow really never touched 81-1 once.

When he said he was a soldier, he was actually a driver for seven years and had zero military knowledge.

Therefore, after serving as a soldier for seven years, Zeng Jian suddenly woke up. He wanted to go to the commanding academy and learn the military, so he wore the rank of sergeant he had earned in more than six years and beat himself back to his original form. Came to the 8th Iron Company of the 1st Division, and learned from the subjects of recruits...

This is a driver's dream of a general...

The most solemn and shocking is not only these.

What surprised him the most was that Zeng Jian was going to be admitted to the military academy, but his chief actually asked him to go directly to the grassroots company to re-learn the military, instead of using his own connections to get him into the military academy.

This point really makes the solemn move.

However, the conversation between the two made Zhuang Yan feel relieved.

Since there has been an ideal, it is the best.

At least he has a pursuit, and if he has a pursuit, he will not be as afraid of hardship and fatigue as Zhao Fugui.

The only worry is whether Zeng Jian will be an idealist.

He hadn't really had contact with the front-line combat troops, and even if he had followed the chief to squat in the past, he probably would have been watching the flowers on a whim.

Just like the local young people want to be a soldier, they think it is very handsome to be a soldier, and they feel very proud to wear a green uniform, but when they really put themselves into training in the army, they realize the hardships of running five kilometers cross-country with dozens of pounds of equipment on their backs. , What is a kneeling position holding a gun that can directly make people cry, what is a throwing grenade that can be thrown into chopsticks and can't hold it...

Ye Gong loves dragons, the dragon comes, but Ye Gong is cowardly.

Afterwards, Zhuang Yan talked to Han Xiaobei again.

Han Xiaobei and Zeng Jian are the exact opposite.

Zeng Jian aimed at the people, but Han Xiaobei couldn't find the kind of Bei.

Zhuang Yan felt that Han Xiaobei was very similar to himself back then. Being a soldier was not what he wanted to be, but was arranged by his parents, and he came unwillingly.

"You came to be a soldier, do you have any goals?"

"no."

"What's the point of being a soldier?"

"I don't know, I think..." Han Xiaobei said, "You have to ask my parents, they think it's meaningful to be a soldier."

"Then why are you in the army?"

"I think..." Han Xiaobei opened his big eyes and looked at Zhuang Yan innocently and seriously: "I think my parents thought that I could get some exercise if I came to the army."

One question and three I don't know.

This is Han Xiaobei's current state of mind.

What to do in the army?

How to do it?

He has absolutely no idea.

Although he passed the recruit company, put on the green uniform, and put on the rank of private soldier, Han Xiaobei was still the otaku who was sitting at home playing Nintendo or squatting in front of the computer to control the mouse and other people to network against StarCraft.

He even felt that his parents threw him into the army as a kind of abandonment to him.

This idea was quickly and solemnly criticized.

The army is not a garbage containment station~lightnovelpub.net~ has no obligation to contain garbage.

However, Zhuang Yan had to admit a fact.

The troops do contain trash.

Many parents send their children to serve in the army, don't they send their children to serve in the army because the army can temper a person and turn bad iron into good steel?

The annual recruitment slogan reads, "A good man should be a soldier to defend the country!" However, are all good men who come to serve as soldiers?

Even Zhuang Yan didn't dare to admit this kind of lofty statement. Before he came to the army, in retrospect it was almost like garbage.

However, when Han Xiaobei delivered it, Zhuang Yan saw his lonely figure standing on the lawn, and the expression he felt ashamed when he looked around and bowed his head.

He knew that this guy could still be saved.

Those who have a sense of shame and know that they need to respect themselves and save face can be saved.

This is also the most important reason why he dared to accept Han Xiaobei.

After talking with the two immortal soldiers, Zhuang Yan asked Zhao Fugui to talk again.

Zhao Fugui is a veteran of the third class, and his mentality is very representative.

If you want to bring the third class alive and make them scream, to cure the illnesses of everyone in the third class, and to remove the heads of the "garbage recycling class" and the "immortal class", you must first cure the heart disease of these people.

Zhao Fugui really deserved to be the best among the veterans. Zhuang Yan called him to the ditch in the grove. As soon as he sat down, the guy took out a cigarette, lit one by himself, and handed it to Zhuang Yan. He opened his mouth and said, "Old Zhuang, we are soldiers of the same age. I know what you want to talk about. If you want to talk about friendship in war, we can chat. If you talk to me about training, okay, you can stay where it is cool."
