Before he joined the army, Mr. Li Zheng heard people say that being a soldier was hard.
After joining the army in Division E, Li Zheng thought it was okay.
Because he is a person who is not afraid of hardship.
Having lost both parents at a very young age, children who grow up in this environment are usually very independent.
People who are very independent can naturally endure hardships.
All along, Li Zheng felt that no problem could stump him.
If you are not even afraid of suffering, what else is there to be afraid of?
But the new model of military life that the special operations brigade recently opened made him doubt life for the first time.
Damn, it’s so painful!
Several times he almost felt like he was going to collapse.
They say starting a business is difficult.
It is difficult to be a pioneer in pioneering wasteland.
Today's special operations brigade is an era of pioneering.
Newly established with nothing.
It used to be an infantry division, but now it has been transformed into a special operations brigade.
The majors are not relevant, the equipment is not up to grade, and the training facilities are completely blank.
What to do if not?
The People's Liberation Army has a fine tradition, which is hard work.
There are ready-made lyrics in songs from the Anti-Japanese War and Revolutionary War periods.
We have no money and no cannons, the enemy makes them for us.
Or maybe it’s the spirit of Nanniwan.
This is all tradition.
The tradition deeply ingrained in this team, even in the 21st century, the red gene of hard work has not changed.
Of course, this is not an age of war, nor is it an age of revolution, so we don’t need enemies to create it for us.
But you can make it yourself.
The first is the venue.
There are seven or eight common obstacles for special forces, not including the special obstacles designed by each special forces based on their own conditions.
Most ordinary infantry can only run the 400-meter obstacle stipulated in the syllabus. Special elite infantry (such as amphibious, mountain, air assault, land combat) these troops can run in addition to the 400-meter obstacle, sea crossing, island landing obstacles, plateau and mountainous terrain.
The 500-meter obstacle, or the 800-meter comprehensive tactical obstacle.
But here in the special forces, the obstacles are gone.
In addition to the obstacles stipulated in the army syllabus, there are a wide variety of obstacles, from short-distance 300-meter special obstacles to 3,000-meter comprehensive obstacles, from hunter obstacles to scout trails.
Obstacles range from high walls, bomb craters, dog holes, three-step piles and five-step piles, to frightening high-altitude obstacles, to comprehensive obstacles that require cooperation between soldiers to overcome, from climbing to drilling culverts, and lifting bomb boxes from quagmire.
When it comes to gas attacks, there is always something that can make you burst into tears and wreak havoc.
The construction of a large number of sites requires a large amount of funds, so it is certain to hire a construction unit to build it. After all, soldiers are not engineering construction personnel. Building houses and obstacles does not have the expertise of manufacturers and engineering units.
However, cleaning and leveling the site before the construction unit enters the site are still small things that can be done, which can save money and exercise.
Li Zheng and his comrades from the Special Reconnaissance Company finally had a "good" time training and constructing at the same time.
The first is the obstacle course. Originally, the Second Battalion of the Menghu Regiment had four 400-meter standard obstacle courses, but now according to the wishes of the brigade leader, the first batch will open up three more obstacle courses, namely - Scout Trail, 400 meters.
Hunter obstacle, 3000 meters special forces comprehensive obstacle.
Every Sunday morning time was squeezed out to carry out weeding and leveling work on the site. As a result, the original one day off per week became only half a day per week on Sunday afternoon for personal hygiene and housekeeping and rest.
The intensity of training is increasing every day.
Push-ups are no longer calculated in terms of "pieces", but in terms of time. Push-ups can last for 0.5 hours, or push-ups can last for 1 hour, or sometimes even for 2 hours.
Want to take a break midway?
no way.
If the squad leader says to take a ten-minute break, don't get up, hold on there, and alternate your hands to hold on, that's a break.
At first, Fatty Wei would vent a lot when he went to the bathroom every day, scolding the class monitor, crying, saying he was tired, and couldn't stand it anymore.
But almost a month later, he stopped shouting.
Li Zhengyoutian suddenly remembered this and asked him while washing his face, "You don't seem to have any complaints recently."
Fatty Wei turned his head and looked at Li Zheng. A weird smile suddenly appeared on his expressionless face. Is there any use in shouting? I figured it out. It’s like that every day anyway. We are all human beings and everyone can do it.
I can bear it, but I will bear it even if I can't. Every morning when I get up, I tell myself, Wei Guoxing, Wei Guoxing, from the moment the wake-up whistle blows, your body no longer belongs to you, it belongs to the platoon leader and squad leader.
, they can train me however they want! Anyway, they can’t really train me to death, I still understand this.
After saying his emotion, he stared at Li Zheng seriously for a long time.
Then he said, Li Zheng, have you looked in the mirror recently?
Li Zheng was stunned.
Then he shook his head and said no.
Fatty Wei said, go and take a picture.
Li Zheng didn't realize for a moment what Fatty Wei meant. Then after washing his face, he went to the military mirror next to the duty post to take a look.
To be honest, Li Zheng has always thought that he is quite handsome. Although he is not a member of the Appearance Association, he has never paid much attention to appearance and grooming before. For a top student, what is more attractive than studying?
But when he stood in front of the military mirror and took a photo, he suddenly realized that he had changed.
The self in the mirror is no longer the me who once had a slightly gentle face, and although my skin is not fair, it is definitely not dark.
He saw a face that had lost a lot of weight, but had an indescribable sense of strength.
The facial features have become more three-dimensional, the outline of the face is clearer, the lines on the cheeks are even clearer, and there is an indescribable look in the eyes. Although they are tired, they are very penetrating.
Thin……
He couldn't help but touch his cheek with his hand.
Suddenly, he stopped his hand, opened his palm and took a look.
No wonder it's so rough and covered with calluses.
Full of cocoons.
I don’t know how many layers of these calluses have fallen off, and they are already veritable calluses.
There is a thick layer of calluses from the palm to the back of the palm, to the joints and the edge of the palm.

He can't help but talk to himself.
I thought to myself, grandma would burst into tears when she saw it.
Jiang Cheng walked behind him, then came back and stood in front of the military mirror to take a look.
Li Zheng glanced at the bird chaser.
Just one month.
It has also changed.
The childishness on his face was gone, replaced by a kind of perseverance and maturity.
"Oh, I've lost weight..."
Jiang Cheng shook his head and turned back to the row room.
Li Zheng suddenly remembered something. Jiang Cheng, who always cried a lot at first, seemed to have stopped seeing him cry recently.
The changes in one row are really big.
When the platoon leader Tong Zhi yelled at them, Li Zheng, like all his comrades, was so yelled that his heart trembled and he felt like he wanted to jump out of his chest.
Now?
Of course Demon Tong still yelled, but the person being yelled at calmed down.
Want to be punished?
Answer: "Yes!"
Have to practice.
Answer: "Yes!"
Are you going to practice climbing after running ten kilometers?
Answer: "Yes!"
Devil Tong used to like to ask everyone: "Is it very bitter?"
In the past, soldiers always said, "It's hard!"
Devil Tong always said with a satisfied look, "It's okay to suffer. If you can't bear it, just tell me and I can apply for a camp transfer for him and leave the special reconnaissance camp and go to the logistics force."
Everyone knows that Demon Tong is using different methods to drive people away!
The commandos originally only wanted elites, not idlers.
This month, no one left, no one applied to leave.
Now, Devil Tong still asks this question every day.
But the soldiers in the platoon would answer in unison, "It's not bitter!"
Is it really not bitter?
of course not.
But since it's so painful, why should I make you happy?
It just makes the platoon leader unhappy!
accurate?
That’s right!
A month later, there was not a single person missing in the row.
Someone from other platoons actually applied for transfer and was actually transferred. The next day after applying, the brigade sent a car to pick them up.
Returning from exercise that morning, company commander Ji Zhizhao stood in front of the team to give a review, but instead of commenting on the training, he announced a two-day rest.
rest?
When Li Zheng heard this sentence, he thought there was something wrong with his hearing.
The soldiers in the team even started talking in low voices regardless of queue discipline.
And those platoon leaders were still calm and composed, as if nothing was wrong.
It's definitely not good.
Li Zheng thought to himself.
Sure enough, he guessed correctly.
After Ji Zhizhao announced his decision to take a two-day break, he made another announcement.
"The day after tomorrow, the whole battalion will enter Devil's Week. This is an elimination selection. Whether you can stay in the commando team depends on this time."
After saying that, he was just about to dismiss, when he suddenly added another sentence.
"Our commando team has its own code name. Do you want to know what it is called?"
"think!"
The answer resounded throughout the sky.
Ji Zhizhao excitedly raised his right hand and waved it vigorously in the air, his face full of pride: "Menghu! It's called the Menghu Commando!"
