The next morning, during morning exercises, Xu Sanduo came out of the dormitory. He deliberately waited for Gao Cheng, but Gao Cheng did not do the exercises. After waiting for a while, Xu Sanduo went to do exercises by himself.
After running and having breakfast, Xu Sanduo took some breakfast and went to Gaocheng.
Gao Cheng's attitude has improved a lot.
The relationship between the two gradually improved a bit.
The days passed like this day by day, and before I knew it, a week had passed.
At ten o'clock that morning, Xu Sanduo and Gao Cheng came back from training. Before they even entered the dormitory, a civil servant asked at the door: "Is Gao Cheng, the commander of Steel Seventh Company, here?"
Gao Cheng replied: "I am."
The civil servant said: "The regiment headquarters has issued an urgent notice, telling you to go to the regimental commander's office immediately! The people from the division headquarters have already arrived with the order."
Gao Cheng seemed not to hear, and stayed there for a long time before buttoning the Fengji button. He originally wanted to turn around and say something to Xu Sanduo, but when he turned around and saw Xu Sanduo's look, he couldn't say a word.
He walked away on his own, ignoring Xu Sanduo.
"You have been ordered from above to serve as the deputy battalion commander of the division's armored reconnaissance battalion."
In the regimental leader's office, Wang Qingrui handed an order to Gao Cheng, but Gao Cheng remained expressionless and did not pick up the document.
Wang Qingrui stared at Gao Cheng, but did not hear Gao Cheng's objection. He sighed and sat down.
The two looked at each other silently for a while. Wang Qingrui spoke first. He said, "What do you have to say?"
Gao Cheng replied calmly: "I obey orders."
Wang Qingrui smiled: "It seems that there is still some emotion, because of the Seventh Steel Company?"
Gao Cheng said: "In the past two days, I have just understood a truth, don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself. Just now I have understood a truth, no karma is karma, and no plan is plan."
The leader didn't understand, so Gao Cheng explained: "The most important thing is to do the thing at hand first, and don't think about other things. I have just met a person in the past two days, the King of Errors. Every time he does a small thing right, he will be like him."
He was holding onto straws like a life-saving straw. One day I looked and realized, well, what he was holding was already a towering tree that I looked up to. He taught me this."
"Is it Xu Sanduo?"
"Well. I have always looked down upon anything he does. Stubbornness is the vitality of a fool. But now it seems that faith is not something that is shouted out, but made. We are too smart.
I always think I have mastered the secret, but in fact the real secret is to persevere like a fool. Xu Sanduo is such a person... Captain, do you still remember him?"
"Of course I remember, your boy came to my place and yelled at me several times because of him."
"That's a thing of the past. Captain, I have a request. I want to take Xu Sanduo with me."
Wang Qingrui smiled again: "There are no doors. The Seventh Company still has supplies. Xu Sanduo is under the management of the regiment headquarters, and he has to guard the supplies."
Gao Cheng was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth, but in the end he just sighed.
Wang Qingrui thought for a while and said: "If you have nothing to do, go ahead. Xu Sanduo's regiment will make arrangements. After all, you have also been in military school for three years, one year as platoon leader, and three years as company commander. I hope you can survive these seven years."
Gao Cheng had no choice but to leave, but couldn't help but look back when he reached the door.
Wang Qingrui was looking at the chariot model on the table in trance.
Gao Cheng finally expressed his worries. If he left again, only Xu Sanduo would be left in the Seventh Steel Company.
The group leader nodded and said he understood.
Gao Cheng couldn't say anything anymore, he just closed the door quietly.
After returning to the 7th Steel Company, Gao Cheng did not go in immediately, but stood at the soldier's declaration of enlistment standing near the 7th Company's arch. It was originally just a unique thing to show the characteristics of the 7th Company. Now, after having said so many heroic words,
These simple words made him feel deeply, as if Gao Cheng was looking at something completely unfamiliar.
Xu Sanduo is cleaning the entire seventh company.
This work can be light or heavy. If you want to be careless, the work will be very light. If you want to be serious, the work will be very heavy.
Xu Sanduo took this job very hard.
Xu Sanduo swept the aisles for a while, then turned around and saw Gao Cheng taking a broom and sweeping the open space outside.
Xu Sanduo was startled. The company commander swept the floor. This was a big deal. Only officers at the company commander level would hold a broom for collective activities. But there were no major events today.
Xu Sanduo hurriedly ran over: "Company Commander, I'm coming!"
Gao Cheng said: "You inside, I'll do it together outside."
That night, Gao Cheng delivered his CD and cassette portable stereo, some music discs and cassettes, and a pile of books to Xu Sanduo's dormitory. These were Gao Cheng's private property, and he piled them up with Xu Sanduo.
A table.
That night, Gao Cheng was very strange and said a lot of strange things. For the first time in his life, he and Xu Sanduo opened their hearts and praised Xu Sanduo highly.
The next morning, Xu Sanduo moved his joints and walked past Gaocheng Gate. He wanted to ask Gaocheng to run together. He knocked on the company commander's door, but there was no response. He had to give up.
An hour later, Xu Sanduo, dripping with sweat, came back from outside and knocked on Gao Cheng's door again.
There was still no movement, so Xu Sanduo had no choice but to return to his dormitory. As soon as he took off the weight he had put on while running, someone knocked on the door outside.
Xu Sanduo thought that the company commander who had woken up late was outside, but someone else opened the door. That guy used to be a soldier of the 7th Steel Company, but now he has gone to another company and became a member of the 6th Company.
"I'm bringing a message for the company commander."
Xu Sanduo subconsciously looked at Gaocheng's door.
"The company commander is not here. He left. He should have arrived at the division headquarters by now. He left while you were running." He looked at Xu Sanduo's expression carefully: "The company commander is now the deputy battalion commander of the division's armored reconnaissance battalion.
You are the only one left in the seventh company."
Xu Sanduo was petrified.
Time is like water, passing by.
One day, Xu Sanduo finally became a sergeant.
Xu Sanduo took the oath in the regimental auditorium.
Seeing that Xu Sanduo's military rank was changed to a first-class non-commissioned officer, the regiment commander Wang Qingrui on the side was thoughtful.
Wang Qingrui asked the regimental officer next to him: "How long has this soldier been looking at supplies?"
"More than half a year."
Wang Qingrui asked again: "Any outstanding performance?
"No, usually."
Wang Qingrui looked at the calm soldier on the stage and sighed: It's ordinary, but that's really not an easy task.
Xu Sanduo is still sweeping floors in the Seventh Company. It is not much different for him to become a non-commissioned officer. He is still guarding, maintaining and cleaning the same things as before.
The broom moved across the ground with no repetitions or mistakes. Xu Sanduo quietly did this tedious task.
He is still training alone, but he is no longer sluggish. His eyes are actively observing the situation of other teams. He is constantly absorbing nutrients from others, and he is always making progress.
What I got after making such a big turn is called normality. Nothing has changed, except that I am no longer upset.
Not afraid of losing, not afraid of gaining, just doing what you insist on like a fool.
On this day, while Xu Sanduo was running, an off-road vehicle with a strange logo passed him by.
The car stopped on its own, and the rolled-down window revealed a man wearing sunglasses.
He drives himself.
The railway rolled down the window and asked the soldiers on duty: "Where is your regiment headquarters?"
"Turn right and go east for a hundred meters at the end."
"Thanks."
After a while, the railway came to Wang Qingrui's office.
Wang Qingrui was looking at a pile of soldier resumes in front of him, and what he was holding was Xu Sanduo's resume. At this time, Railway walked in.
The last item on Xu Sanduo's resume is still the garrison of the 7th Steel Company.
The railway knocks on the door and comes in.
"Sit down." Wang Qingrui said and threw the pack of cigarettes over. "You can take the cigarettes yourself and wait until I finish reading this."
Railway laughed mockingly: "Here you go."
Wang Qingrui raised his head in surprise: "What?"
Railway sat down: "You and I are either hurting each other or joking. But you are looking so businesslike now. Do you want to see my reaction so you can give me medicine? I don't believe you haven't read the information you should read yet."
over."
Wang Qingrui was not embarrassed after being exposed. He put the information on the table, placed it on top of other people's information, and pressed it down with a book.
Wang Qingrui smiled: "Okay. I have received the notice from the division headquarters, but I am ready to bargain."
"Tell me, I've been calculating all the way here."
Wang Qingrui thought for a while: "To be honest, there are a few soldiers I absolutely don't want to give you."
"Then I will tell you the truth. There are a few soldiers, and I am here for them."
"Great. Are you going to use the division's order to pressure me?"
Railway smiled at Wang Qingrui's aggressive expression and dragged his teapot over to take a sip.
"Don't be angry yet," Tiezi said as he tapped Xu Sanduo's resume, "the ones you protect as your treasures may not be qualified in my eyes."
"That's right, what is suitable for armored soldiers may not be suitable for special forces."
Railway smiled pleasantly: "Don't change the subject. Regardless of the military branch, a good soldier is a good soldier. I just want to tell you that I don't bring a rope to rob people... How about it? I just hope that you and I can be fair.
I hope I can see them at the grassland training ground to the west of your regiment next week."
He tapped the pile of resumes again.
Wang Qingrui also looked at the pile of resumes, feeling a little depressed: "You will see them. Fairness between you and me is a trivial matter, but for them... I hope you will give them the fairness they deserve."
"certainly!"
That night, Xu Sanduo received the notice to participate in the selection of Lao A!
