Every year when new students enter school, the first group activity is military training. Military life can give people a comprehensive experience. For a young man, this kind of experience is really necessary, just like a small tree must

Only after pruning the branches can they grow into towering trees. If someone does some statistics, they will find that most of the successful people in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, had the experience of joining the army when they were young. This experience is far more important than going to college.

The military training for freshmen at Binhai University lasts for two weeks. It was arranged by the local garrison in a suburban training base. It is located in a rural area with no other places except farmland, so that everyone can train with peace of mind. The person responsible for the military training of Cao Yu and his class is a person with a look.

The dark-skinned young man from Shandong gathered everyone on the training ground and lectured in Mandarin with a Shandong accent: Hello everyone, my name is Wang Bin. From today on, I will be responsible for the military training tasks of our class. You will call me Squad Leader Wang from now on.

The girls were particularly excited when they saw Monitor Wang in front of them. Yan Tingting shouted happily: Monitor Wang, you are so handsome!

Wang Xiaoling also smiled and said: That’s right, Squad Leader Wang, where are you from?

At that time, young people grew up watching the railway guerrillas and Weihu Mountain, and admired the PLA soldiers very much. Everyone was eager to join the army to fight and defend the motherland, so military training made them feel fresh and excited, and they couldn't help but say no.

Stop. Squad leader Wang has seen the world. Almost every year during military training, some girls openly express their love for PLA soldiers because they admire them.

These soldiers have been strictly selected to stay here. Naturally, they are determined and unmoved, saying: Okay, everyone, please be quiet. From now on, we will be glorious soldiers of the People's Liberation Army. Everyone must pay attention to organizational discipline and everything.

Actions follow my command. Everyone, be quiet. Listen to my command. Everyone, stand at attention and look forward! Very good. Everyone, stop talking casually. I have to call for a report in advance. After a while, let me tell you about the queue of our training tasks for the past two weeks.

, internal affairs, shooting...

As soon as the boys heard about the shooting, they excitedly whispered to each other. Squad leader Wang said: What did I just say? Everyone listen to my command, stand at attention and take a rest. I continued, the training is still very difficult, the weather is hot, what's wrong with everyone's health?

If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me and don't hold on, especially girls. There have been cases where girls fainted during queue training. Everyone must pay attention. There are also three major disciplines and eight points of attention. Do not

Take a needle and a thread from the villagers. The chickens and dogs raised by the bankers and villagers in the surrounding fields must not be stolen. Once caught, the consequences will be very serious! Okay, I will say this much first. Everyone, listen to my instructions and stand at attention.

Count from smallest to largest...

Our military training starts with the formation training, standing at attention, taking a rest, turning left, turning right, walking in unison, walking in step. Every year there will be one or two students who are confused, Sun Xiaomei is one, and every year there will be one or two students who are confused.

Sun Xiaomei was still a student on crutches, and squad leader Wang patiently corrected everyone's postures one by one, practicing together, practicing alone...

The days passed like this, and the food at the base was incomparable to the school cafeteria. As the time passed, the students had lost their initial excitement, and were replaced by exhaustion and sunburned faces.

There is a faint green light, and the military uniform on his body has a tendency to rely more and more on color.

At the end of the day's training, Sun Xiaobo walked out of the base alone, came to the field and sat down. He looked at a few free-range chickens pecking in the field in the distance, and listened to the gurgling bowel sounds in his stomach. Cao Yu walked over and squatted beside him.

He came down and said, "Stop thinking about it. If you can't eat it, think of other ways."

Sun Xiaobo sighed and said, "I have thought of everything I can think of. Toads are not easy to catch, and they are too small. One and a half of them can't help but be full. This chicken is more economical."

Cao Yu lamented: I've tried it, but don't even think about getting close. If you startle and scream in broad daylight, you will definitely attract people.

Sun Xiaobo said: If I can catch it, can you cook it well?

Cao Yu said: No, I can't cook. Have you heard the story of the plum tree on the roadside?

Sun Xiaobo said: What?

Cao Yu said: These chickens must be missed by many people. Why are they still here? It can be seen that they are difficult to catch.

Sun Xiaobo said: Have you ever heard that a chicken doesn’t choose its food?

Cao Yu smiled and said: No matter how hungry you are, you can't catch it!

Sun Xiaobo said: I'm not saying that I'm too hungry to care about those things. I'm saying that if I can catch this chicken, can you cook it well?

Cao Yufan suddenly came to his senses and said: If you are looking for girls, they will definitely be able to do it.

Sun Xiaobo jumped up excitedly and said: Yes, go and ask them.

Cao Yu and the two immediately went to discuss with Yan Tingting. Yan Tingting immediately became emotional after hearing their plan. She was not particularly greedy. The food in this base just forced her to lose weight. Women pursue their own beauty more than any other belief.

Perseverance and determination, as long as they can be beautiful, no matter how cruel they are to themselves! For the sake of beauty, they dare to starve themselves to death!

Of course Yan Tingting is no exception. She can bear this hunger, but good girls all over the world have a common wish, which is to do bad things with the boy they like. She has a good impression of Cao Yu, this guy is very energetic

She ignored her vigorously, which made her feel very challenged. Today, Cao Yu took the initiative to come to the door, which made her very excited. She was already smiling and said with a bright face: Okay, okay, this is fun.

It’s exciting just thinking about it, so I’m going to participate.

The problem was solved so simply. Cao Yu was naturally very happy and said: That's great, I'll leave the chicken cooking to you, and we'll catch the chickens right now.

After saying that, she turned to leave, but Yan Tingting quickly stopped her and said, "Hey, don't worry, I'm afraid of stepping on an ant, so how can I kill a chicken?"

Cao Yu said: You don’t need to kill it, just cook it.

Yan Tingting smiled and said: Then neither can I.

When Cao Yu heard this, he was immediately disappointed and said: Well, forget it, I said it in vain. Goodbye.

After saying that, she turned around and pulled Sun Xiaobo to leave. Yan Tingting quickly stopped her and said: "Hey, why are you in such a hurry! Why are you such a villain? You just leave as soon as you say."

Cao Yu said: Why am I a villain?

Yan Tingting said: "If you use people to look forward, if you don't use people to look behind you, what are you if you are not a villain?"

Cao Yu said: You don't know anything, what else do we have to talk about?

Yan Tingting smiled and said: "I don't care, you must take me with you for such a fun thing, otherwise I will go to the monitor to report you."

Cao Yu said with a smile: "Why are you so excited? I have never seen a person like you. I don't lead you to commit crimes, but just report it? You go ahead and file a complaint. If no one can do it, we won't do anything."

.

Yan Tingting said: Just because I can't do it doesn't mean no one can do it. I'll just find someone to do it.

Sun Xiaobo quickly asked: Who are you looking for? Keep it secret!

Yan Tingting said: Don't worry, I'll go find Zhang Haiyan and she will definitely do it.

Cao Yu smiled and said: Yes, she is from the countryside, she will definitely do it!

Sun Xiaobo said: Then go quickly, we will wait for your reply.

Yan Tingting immediately went to discuss it with Zhang Haiyan. Zhang Haiyan was shocked when she heard this and said: "Yes, I can do it, but this is a violation of discipline. Didn't Squad Leader Wang say not to steal fellow villagers' chickens? I can't do it."

Yan Tingting excitedly advised: It's okay Haiyan, it's just a broken chicken, it doesn't matter.

In order to steal the chicken with Cao Yu and others, Yan Tingting finally persuaded Zhang Haiyan and asked her to find a way to get some salt.

After hearing Yan Tingting's reply, Cao Yu naturally agreed, and immediately went straight to the cafeteria with Sun Xiaobo. Originally, the two of them thought that one would cover and the other would act, but when they arrived at the kitchen, they saw that those people were not alert at all, and several people were gathered around.

They were playing poker. Who would have thought there was a thief in this base? So the two of them went in and grabbed two handfuls of uncooked rice and put them in their pockets. They also grabbed a handful of salt, wrapped it in paper, and put it in their pockets.

, swaggering out again. The chickens have all gone home at night, so we can only take action during the day tomorrow.

After lunch the next day, while everyone was going back to the dormitory to rest, the four of them quietly left the base and came to the field. Sun Xiaobo threw rice and started to lure the chickens. Yan Tingting handed the leftover half of the steamed buns from lunch to Cao Yu.

He and Zhang Haiyan hid aside and watched them from a distance. Cao Yu and Sun Xiaobo sat on the ground facing each other. Sun Xiaobo threw rice from time to time. Although the free-range chickens hunting for wild food were very vigilant, they could not resist the temptation of rice.

, several chickens quickly gathered around and started pecking away. A bold chicken stretched out its head and pecked at the steamed buns in Cao Yu's hand. Cao Yu grabbed the chicken's neck, twisted it, and grabbed it with his other hand.

The chicken's wings were pinned to the ground, killing decisively. The chicken didn't even have time to hum and struggled for a few times before dying. The chickens around were just startled. After seeing that nothing was wrong, they just started to peck at the ground.

When the rice came, Sun Xiaobo scattered the rice in his hand on the ground and praised: neat!

Pulling Cao Yu up, she ran towards the two women in the distance. Before Yan Tingting could retract her tongue, she saw Cao Yu running towards him holding the chicken in his hand. She looked at the chickens that were still pecking in the distance with eyes.

He wrote full of admiration and said: OK, Cao Yu, I didn’t see it.

Cao Yu handed the chicken to Zhang Haiyan and gasped: I'll leave the rest to you.

Zhang Haiyan took the chicken, tore open the belly with her hands, took out the internal organs, threw the inedible gall, gizzards, intestines, etc. into the pre-dug pit, and then put the heart, liver, eggs, and other edible items back in

Then I grabbed a handful of salt and rubbed it into the chicken's belly, then wrapped the chicken with its feathers in the newspaper I brought with me, put it into the pit, dug up the soil to cover the pit, and inserted a branch on top to make it.

Mark, said: Marinate it like this first, then find a secluded place to bake it at night.

When Cao Yu saw Zhang Haiyan accomplishing all this so quickly, he sincerely admired him and asked, "Aren't you going to remove the hair?"

Zhang Haiyan grabbed a handful of grass blades, wiped the blood and soil in his hands and said: "You need boiling water to remove hair. Do you have it?"

Sun Xiaobo wondered: Can I eat it without hair loss?

Zhang Haiyan said: It will be a bit fishy, ​​so let's just leave. Don't let anyone see it.

After dark, the four of them met again and found a secluded place. Zhang Haiyan built a fire, put a few rocks on branches and roasted them together. Sun Xiaobo dug out the chicken and handed it to Zhang Haiyan.

Open the newspaper bag, use branches to stuff the hot stones into the chicken's belly, then re-wrap the newspapers, throw them into the fire, and bury them with embers of the charcoal fire. Then, under the command of Zhang Haiyan, several people cultivated the soil.

The chicken was buried entirely in the soil. Zhang Haiyan looked at the mound, patted the soil on her hands and said: Okay, let's wait and eat.

Yan Tingting said excitedly: How long will it take to wait?

Zhang Haiyan said: Of course, the longer the better, wait until the soil is cold.

Cao Yu said: How long do you have to wait? I can't wait that long.

Zhang Haiyan said: "I know you can't wait. It should be cooked in half an hour, and then it will become more and more rotten as it simmers. Look at you, you can't eat the tender ones in a hurry."

Cao Yu said: It's better to eat quickly, I'm very hungry these days.

Zhang Haiyan sighed and said: I know, otherwise I wouldn't be able to agree to do this with you.

Sun Xiaobo wondered: Why not bake it and eat it? Is this possible?

Zhang Haiyan said: Our matter is inherently disgraceful, so this is the safest way. Fire and fragrance will attract people.

Yan Tingting said excitedly: This chicken must be delicious. This is the first time I eat stolen chicken.
