Zhang Wenqing stood up, walked to Li Zheng, looked the private up and down before saying, "Tell me, is this your first time shooting a moving target?"
Li Zheng answered honestly: "Yes!"
Zhang Wenqing asked again: "I heard that you have been going to the small shooting range at the division headquarters every day at noon recently to learn shooting from Chief of Staff Zhuang. Is this true?"
Li Zheng replied: "Yes!"
Zhang Wenqing said: "Tell me how you can hit a moving target so accurately for the first time."
Li Zheng thought for a moment and then replied: "Chief of Staff Zhuang told me that the bullseye is not in the eyes, but in the brain and heart."
"Oh?" Zhang Wenqing couldn't help but look back at Zhuang Yan, who was still sitting in his original position, looking at them with a smile.
"You can't take first place today." Zhang Wenqing said, "Isn't it aggrieved?"
Li Zheng said: "No grievance, I am no longer qualified to compete in the final stage. If I have this opportunity, I will make a profit."
Zhang Wenqing's eyes lit up, he became more appreciative, and said, "If you want to make a request, I can try to repay you."
Li Zheng was overjoyed at first, and then regained his composure: "I don't want to make demands because that would be unfair to others."
Zhang Wenqing looked at Li Zheng's face, as if trying to find some hypocritical expression, but couldn't find it.
Finally, he reached out and patted Li Zheng heavily on the shoulder: "You are the uncrowned king today."
After saying that, he took his driver and left the shooting range.
On the day of the big exam, it was a pity that the first row failed to get first place in the two most important subjects.
The whole regiment stopped training that night because they would be dismounting the company in the next day. They would clean up and pack their belongings tomorrow and prepare to start discharging the company the day after tomorrow.
As usual, on the night before the second company, there was extra food, and beer appeared on the table as an exception.
Battalion Commander Liang Hu came over to toast the whole company. After the toast, he went to Wu Yi's class alone to toast them.
After Liang Hu left, Fatty Wei patted Li Zheng on the arm and said this was all for you.
Everyone said yes, yes, it must be.
In fact, the results of the first platoon in this major assessment were not satisfactory.
Finished last at five kilometers.
When it came to the final discussion of the shooting subject, Zhang Jian only came in third place.
In the equipment gymnastics, a soldier from the third battalion with amazing arm strength pulled 46 pull-ups in one go. The best result in the first row was Zhang Jian, who pulled 41 pull-ups, ranking third.
Then there's the bombing.
The best result in the first row was actually Fatty Wei.
This is also surprising.
Fatty Wei used to be a member of the bomb squad.
But those two days of precious rest seemed to have transformed him. Originally, he was rowing dragon boats in the village, and his arm strength was not bad. It was just the wrong movement of the bomb that prevented him from throwing it far.
Later, he joined the bombardment commando team. Although his posture was corrected, the high-intensity training left his hands in a semi-disabled state and he could not use them at all.
Hou Jun ordered a two-day suspension of training, and gave Fatty Wei some potions to rub in. On the day of the assessment, Fatty Wei showed great power and threw the grenade to 58 meters in one fell swoop.
This result ranked second among the entire new corps and was the best ranking achieved by a platoon in this assessment.
Just for these reasons, the battalion commander Liang Hu would never come over to toast alone. The only reason why the battalion commander came over was Li Zheng.
Li Zheng is now a celebrity in the new army.
In the past, everyone knew that there was Li Yunpeng in the first battalion and Zhuang Haoran in the second battalion. Now everyone knows that there is also Li Zheng.
Li Zheng did not get the ranking, but as Zhang Wenqing said, he is the uncrowned king.
Not a champion, but better than a champion.
After dinner, the platoon arranged an hour of cell phone use time.
The new recruits are about to join the company, and everyone has something on their mind to tell their families.
Li Zheng first called his grandma to report that she was safe, and then said that he had the highest score in the group during the shooting today.
Of course, grandma didn’t understand the rules of practice, such as the 200-meter moving target, but her grandson said it was the highest in the group, so of course it was the best.
As people age, their eye sockets become shallower.
As he talked, the old man thought of his son and daughter-in-law again. Seeing that his grandson had grown up and had become a soldier and had a future, he couldn't help but start to cry again.
Li Zheng also felt sour in his heart.
Grandma is getting older, and her only grandson is not around, so she feels lonely no matter what.
I can't always be by my side, so I feel ashamed to say that I am filial.
But the reality is like this, there is a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety.
Since you have come to serve as a soldier, you must be mentally prepared.
After shedding tears for a while, grandma also felt that she could not let her grandson worry, so she said some words to comfort Li Zheng and let him serve with peace of mind. The meaning behind the words was that she had a pension, an apartment, and a living.
It's not a problem at all. Several of Li Zheng's cousins and aunts often come to see her. She doesn't have to worry about no one to take care of her if something happens. Recently, she has been learning square dancing from others during the day and dancing in Linjiang Park in the small county town at night.
, a group of retired elderly people of the same age are together, and it is not lonely.
When it arrived, grandma took the initiative to hang up, took out her fan, waved it in her hand a few times, and said she was going out to dance.
Li Zheng was in a daze for a long time facing the extinguished cell phone screen, not knowing whether to believe what his grandma said or not.
Yawenba
But seeing as grandma is still in good spirits, she should be fine.
Thinking this way made me feel a little better.
So I wanted to make a video call to Shao Xiaoqian.
Just as I was about to make a call, my cell phone rang first, and when I saw it, it was Shao Xiaoqian's.
The two young lovers who were passionately in love naturally wanted to chat with each other after seeing each other in the video. Li Zheng quickly left the row house and went to the corner of the clothes drying yard to find a quiet place to chat slowly.
He thought Shao Xiaoqian had said that he was going to join the company the day after tomorrow, and then he also mentioned that although he did not get the ranking in the shooting range assessment today, he was ranked first in the whole group.
After listening to his description with admiration, Shao Xiaoqian gave a thumbs up and praised: "I knew you were the best!"
The words "the best" made Li Zheng feel as sweet as drinking ten cans of honey, so he asked Shao Xiaoqian: "When will you leave the company?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When the next chapter was mentioned, Shao Xiaoqian's face immediately showed a look of disappointment, and she sighed and said: "It's almost over, but I don't have any hope in this matter."
Li Zheng said: "Aren't you happy with the next company?"
Shao Xiaoqian said: "You are called the lower company, and we are called the sub-units, but I know which units we go to, including the hospital."
After a pause, he suddenly said: "You said I want to be a doctor, why would I come to the army? Isn't it different if I just finish college at home and then take the postgraduate entrance examination of medical school?"
Li Zheng smiled and said: "Our heroine plans to become a female combat soldier?"
Shao Xiaoqian heard the ridicule in Li Zheng's tone and said angrily: "Li Zheng, what do you mean? Do you look down on me and think I'm not good?"
Li Zheng hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that. I just asked you if you want to be a female soldier in a combat unit."
Shao Xiaoqian said: "Of course, otherwise why do you think I would be a soldier? If I really want to be a machine soldier, why would I use this place?"
Li Zheng knew that she was telling the truth. Donghai City had its own army, and Shao Xiaoqian's father was the leader of the army. If he really wanted to be comfortable, there was no need to go to G Military Region.
He teased Shao Xiaoqian and said: "Then what kind of soldier do you want to be? Is it a special forces soldier or an artillery soldier or something else?"
Shao Xiaoqian said: "Special Forces! Female Special Forces! I've seen it on TV before, it's so cool!"
Li Zheng said: "I object."
Shao Xiaoqian said: "Why do you object?!"
Li Zheng half-seriously said: "Of course I object. If you really become a special forces soldier, what will I do in the future? If I marry you, will I still have my status in the family? If you threaten me with force at every turn, will I survive..."
Shao Xiaoqian burst out laughing after hearing this. She laughed so hard that her branches trembled with laughter. It took a while before she stopped laughing and said, "If you don't do something bad, why are you afraid of someone knocking on your door? If you really don't make any principled mistakes, how can I do anything to you?"
Li Zheng said: "Not necessarily! The fifth company commander of our battalion, his wife is a weightlifter, a professional athlete. She came to the team a few days ago, and that day I saw them playing table tennis behind the battalion headquarters.
A ball wiped the net. The fifth company commander said that the net was wiped, but his wife said that it didn't count. The two got into an argument. She suddenly grabbed our fifth company commander, raised it above her head, and asked him if he accepted it and whether it counted.
…”
Shao Xiaoqian was stunned at first, and then she couldn't help laughing and asked: "Then...then...what happened to your fifth company commander? His wife won't really throw him, right?"
Li Zheng said: "What can I do? I can only say yes. If my wife says yes, I will accept it. I will definitely accept it. Even if I don't accept it, I will accept it!"
"Hahahahaha!"
At the other end of the video, Shao Xiaoqian laughed so hard that everyone disappeared from the screen.
Li Zheng thought to himself, silly girl, becoming a special forces soldier? Is that what you do? Hehe.
He always believed that Shao Xiaoqian had been pampered since she was a child and could not bear the crime. It was probably because she watched TV and saw all kinds of awesome things about female special forces soldiers, and as a child of the army, she suddenly became enthusiastic.
