Lin Yi agreed with Deputy Commander Chen's words, but still said: "Deputy Commander Chen, you can follow us on patrol if you want, but I have a request. You must obey my orders throughout the process.
During the patrol, you have to do whatever I ask you to do, and you must obey unconditionally. If you agree, I will take you. If you don't agree, even if you withdraw me now, I will
disagree."
Deputy Commander Chen was not a fool. He naturally knew that Lin Yi was thinking about his own safety, and immediately said: "This must be no problem. You are the top leader of Class 8, so when we join the patrol team, we will naturally be your soldiers."
Then he looked at Captain Li and said, "Old Li, are you interested in patrolling with me tomorrow?"
Commander Li was very bloody, otherwise he would not have been able to serve as the leader of the border defense regiment. He immediately patted his chest and said, "Your division leaders are not afraid. How can I be afraid? I will be done with it."
Then he looked at Lin Yi and said, "Platoon Commander Lin, now Deputy Commander Chen and I are your soldiers. I think we should just get into our roles now and you can arrange us as you like."
It was not a patrol now, and there was no safety involved. How could Lin Yi dare to use these two leaders, let alone these two leaders? Even if they were followed by a group of lieutenants and school officers, Lin Yi would not dare to give casual orders.
But these people are a problem after all. The patrol will only start tomorrow. The outpost is so big and there are only six empty beds. There is no room for these people. We can't let them make bunks on the floor in the conference room.
Lin Yi scratched his head and said, "Leader, why don't you let most of the people go back? We can make up to five beds for you. If you want to stay at night, we don't have enough space at the outpost."
(The bunk beds in a single room are not suitable for sleeping two people, because the door of the single room does not close and the sleeping environment is not good, so only five beds can actually be freed from the original six empty beds)
Captain Li immediately said: "The two people from the propaganda unit and Deputy Commander Chen's driver will stay, and everyone else will get in the car and go back."
Commander Li spoke, but no one dared not listen and all left the post.
Lin Jian realized that it was almost time for lunch and said, "Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry. You can finish your lunch here first and then go back."
Unexpectedly, when Captain Li heard this, he directly refused, "The food we finally brought up is not for them to eat, but for your officers and soldiers at the outpost. Let them go back to the regiment to eat. If we go back now, we can just eat it."
In time for dinner, come to the outpost to grab something to eat."
Deputy Commander Chen also smiled and said: "Captain Li is right. The regiment has a special cooking team to cook, and the ingredients are sufficient. If you have nothing to do, you can come to the outpost to get some food."
Lin Yi knew that Master Wu was decomposing cattle in the kitchen. This cow and four sheep were enough for the post staff to eat for a month. Now that the post is full, it would be fun for everyone to eat together.
Some people will definitely not believe it. A cow is estimated to be 400 jins, a sheep is 40 jins, and four is 167 jins. This adds up to almost 600 jins of meat. Can 12 people finish it in a month?
Lin Yi can tell you with certainty that if you eat it unscrupulously and with an open stomach, it may not be enough.
The last time we had a dinner with some comrades, because when we were patrolling, we occasionally saw sheep grazing. In addition, the oil and water in the station was really not enough, so we discussed that when we came down from the mountain, we must go back and have a good meal.
Zheton mutton.
(咥, die, means to eat. A comrade who is from Shaanxi likes to use this word. We also followed suit. He often said that he would eat some meat when he went back. I thought it was quite impressive.)
When we got off the bus, each of the six people cashed in 400 yuan and went directly to the store to prepare a roasted whole lamb. The roasted whole lamb weighed more than 30 kilograms. There was not even a shred of meat left for the six people to eat.
.
Just like that, the shop owner saw that we were not too full, so he gave us two portions of yellow noodles and a plate of grilled naan. When he saw that we had finished eating, he started to rub our stomachs, and he thought it was too bad.
Think about it, the six of us slaughtered thirty kilograms of mutton in one meal, let alone 12 people in the outpost. If we really wanted to eat freely, it would be no exaggeration to slaughter two sheep in one day.
Of course, this way of eating cannot be done by people who live a normal life. It can only be done by those of us who have not eaten meat happily for a long time.
If you eat it in a way that makes your life better, you won't be able to finish all the meat in one winter. If you eat it in a way that makes you feel comfortable, it will only be enough for a month.
Lin Jing saw that the entourage was walking towards the road without looking back, and there was nothing he could do to stop it. However, there were many people in the post now, and there were leaders there, so he wanted to do something better. At least a leg of mutton would definitely not be able to fix it.
of.
So he shouted to Master Wu in the kitchen: "Old Wu, take a sheep out, split it in half, stew half and grill half. Today we will have a meat dish. The lamb neck must be stewed. That thing will be stewed."
The taste is so refreshing.”
When Captain Li heard Lin Yi's shouting, he laughed and said, "Just bring the meat over and you start eating. The way you eat it, I think even the amount of meat given is not enough."
Lin Yi replied: "Captain, after all, our chefs can't compare with units like the cooking class. The cooking class is not affected. How much meat is cooked every day is measured by a scale. That's all.
But there are only a few of us. Sometimes people are greedy and want to eat more meat, but the chef can’t help it. The refrigerator is right there, and the greedy warriors have taken out the meat, and the chef hasn’t put it back.”
Captain Li smiled and said: "How to eat it is something you and the chef need to consider. We will not interfere. Since we got a whole sheep tonight, Deputy Master Chen and I will have a good meal. It seems that we can have a good time."
It’s time to have a meal.”
Today's meal was extremely rich, but it was also Master Wu's most relaxing day, because there was no patrol duty today, so everyone was basically at the outpost.
Normally when there is nothing going on at the outpost, everyone can read a book, brag, play chess and flags, etc. to pass the time, but now that the regiment leaders and division leaders are here, how can they dare to brag casually?
The outpost is so big, and it's -30 degrees below zero and there's nowhere to go, so everyone has to go to the kitchen. Fortunately, everyone has helped cook, and even if their cooking is not as good as Master Wu, it's still reasonable, especially since there are
A few barbecue experts have been skewering meat on skewers, and the taste is amazing.
With someone helping him, Master Wu seemed very relaxed, but in fact he was also worried about where to put so much meat.
In the small space of the refrigerator, it can barely fit three sheep, let alone a cow.
I had no choice but to find Lin Yi and ask for Lin Yi's help.
Lin Yi's opinion was very simple, "If you really don't have any other options, just shovel the snow back and pile it on the small playground of the outpost, and then bury the meat there. The small playground is surrounded by iron fences, and ordinary small animals can't do it."
If you can't get close, just check it every day and it'll be fine."
