The uniform shouts were so deafening that just when Zheng Qian was about to step down the steps, his back feet were frozen in place.

This scene made more than a thousand soldiers in the audience immediately applaud excitedly and shout out Zheng Qian's name.

"Zheng Qian!"

"Zheng Qian!"

"Zheng Qian!"

The thunderous applause lasted for a long time, and countless whistles and shouts came and went.

Speaking of which, many soldiers are actually a little dissatisfied with the artistic soldiers.

There is no need for desperate training, there is no need for all kinds of drills to be carried out every time there is movement, there is no need to be exhausted, sweating, and occasionally injured and bleeding every day.

Artists only need to stand on the stage, hum a few times, and perform two or three items, and they are all alive.

What is the most direct contribution to the country and the army?

No!

At least that's what many soldiers thought.

Moreover, the rapid upgrade of the art soldiers is obvious to everyone in the army!

They are all soldiers. If a literary soldier attends any award ceremony or wins any golden song award, he can be promoted in an instant!

But it is different for the active majors with real power. In the era without war, apart from gaining seniority, even earning military merit is almost a luxury. There is no other way!

Therefore, art soldiers are the most criticized in the army!

Fortunately, the art soldiers do not have military ranks and are equivalent to public institutions. Otherwise, there would be a huge commotion in the army.

But this phenomenon, today, has completely disappeared from Zheng Qian!

If all art soldiers were like Zheng Qian and could boost their morale with a song, it would be good news for all soldiers!

In addition to the main force, sometimes an excellent auxiliary can also be amazing!

"Thank you, thank you for your applause!"

Zheng Qian held the microphone and saw that the applause continued for a long time and his morale was high. He turned around and said with a wry smile: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet. I have something to say."

brush!

As expected of an army, it’s almost a matter of order and prohibition!

There was no time to take a breath, and the entire scene became silent. All the soldiers looked at Li Qing with burning eyes.

Zheng Qian thought for a while and said: "First of all, thank you comrades for your affirmation of my performance. My performance has ended here today. If I sing another song, it doesn't matter. It will just affect the teachers who come next...

"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhen, a civilian cadre who was standing at the back and preparing to go on stage, immediately said loudly: "It's okay Zheng Qian, I agreed for everyone, you can continue to perform, we can wait as long as you want!"

Zheng Qian was choked and looked depressed.

The whole audience burst into laughter.

"Good guy, I'm just a good guy!"

"You have no excuse now, Zheng Qian! If you're a man, just play another one!"

"Zheng Qian, I haven't cried in a long time. I bleed and sweat during training, and I haven't cried before. Just because of your song, my tears are like horse urine, and they are flowing down!"

"Sing another song! I came to be a soldier just for "When That Day Comes"!"

"Yes, your songs inspired us!"

"Please play one more!"

The crowd was in high spirits, and a group of commanders such as the regiment commander and brigade commander also took the lead in making noises. Zheng Qian had no choice but to calm down and said: "Thank you everyone for your likes. This is my honor and recognition of me. In that case

, then I will sing another song, please allow me to prepare a little."

After saying that, Zheng Qian walked off the stage and spoke a few words to the host Yu Guogao who came up. The latter immediately nodded and then quickly ran to the music teacher to pass the message.

The music teacher looked surprised, then opened his laptop and searched.

After a while, he raised his head and extended a thumbs up to Zheng Qian on the stage, indicating that everything was ready.

"Before I sing this song again, I have something in my heart that I want to tell you."

After Zheng Qian received the signal from the music teacher, he felt much more relaxed. He picked up the microphone and smiled with the soldiers in the audience: "Actually, I learned some things before coming here. I heard that many comrades who came to join the army this year,

You all decided to become a soldier after listening to my recruitment song "When That Day Comes", right?"

"right!"

"That's right!"

"I was still undecided until I listened to the recruiting song. Oh my goodness, my blood was boiling. I signed up for the physical examination on impulse. I thought it would be difficult to pass, but it turned out to be a success!"

"However, it was only after I came to serve as a soldier that I realized how hard it is to be a soldier!"

In the audience, many soldiers seemed to have been struck by what was said to them. They all said various things loudly or in a whisper, vomiting their bitterness.

Zheng Qian raised his hand to signal for silence.

Then he said: "There is a saying that I think veterans understand more deeply..."

"You will regret it for two years if you become a soldier, but you will regret it for a lifetime if you don't serve as a soldier!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many veterans felt as if something had been said to them, and they all nodded excitedly.

"The reason why you regret being a soldier for two years is because you have just entered the military area and you are still unable to adapt to the high-intensity training of the military area. However, this training is an inevitable process, and at this time, you and your comrades still need each other.

There is a process from stranger to familiarity. You have not experienced living and dying together, and you have not developed brotherhood..."

"But as your training strengthens and you cooperate through exercises again and again, the friendship between everyone will become deeper and deeper, and trust will naturally appear between you. When facing danger, you will

You are willing to leave your back to each other because you are relatives and brothers. This is a great emotion, and it is also an emotion that is very different from ordinary people. All of these are not found in daily life, and this is war.

Friendship!”

"In my opinion, comradeship is really the strongest emotion in the world. If you can have such a friendship, you will never regret it until you die!"

"You can ask the veterans who are about to retire how reluctant they are to leave this place!"

Zheng Qian's voice was neither fast nor slow, but every word was sonorous, imprinting itself on the hearts of all the soldiers present.

For a time, many soldiers had red eyes!

Liu Ben, the group leader, pressed the brim of his hat, lowered his head, and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

The political commissar of the regiment next to him patted him on the shoulder, then hugged the regiment leader tightly and comforted him: "It's me who has retired, not you, why are you crying!"

Liu Ben gritted his teeth and punched the political commissar hard: "As promised, no matter where we are, we will be good brothers for life!"

"Yeah!" The political commissar nodded with a smile, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

As Zheng Qian said, if you join the army you will regret it for two years, if you don’t join the army you will regret it for a lifetime!

He thought of the comrades he had sent away over the years.

When the car they were riding in drove out from the army, all their comrades lined up on both sides to watch.

On that day, gongs and drums were played in farewell and sentries saluted.

The political commissar's eyes instantly became blurry.

That was a very long day.

Along the way, the retired brothers cried from the moment they walked out of the camp gate to the train station.

He didn't want to see that kind of scene again, nor did he want to experience it himself...

But everything in the world is beyond your control.

If it hadn't been for a major change in his family, he really wanted to stay in the army for the rest of his life...

"I know that you all miss home. This is normal, and it is also the inner journey that every recruit must go through. But since we have chosen this path, we must resist the responsibilities that are placed on our shoulders, right?

?”

"This is a glorious mission!"

"Next, this song is called "Speak from the Heart"!"

In the silence of the soldiers, Zheng Qian said slowly: "Yes, I want to tell everyone what is in my heart while singing!"

The music started playing at exactly the right moment.

The leisurely sound of the violin, combined with the sound of classical instruments such as the guzheng, came out softly.

Zheng Qian looked around the audience, looking at those pairs of bright eyes, raised the microphone in his hand, and sang in a deep and loud voice:

"To tell you the truth, I miss home too

The old mother at home has a head full of white hair

To be honest, I also have love

I often miss her in that dream
To be continued...
