"Didn't you promise to come back today? Why haven't you arrived yet? Don't let anything happen again!"
Time flies by like water, and in the blink of an eye, New Year's Eve is here.
The third military community.
Seeing that the sky outside was gradually getting dark, and Wang Dong, who had promised to come back for the New Year, still did not show up, Lin Meiling frowned slightly, feeling a little worried in her heart.
"Mom, don't think too much about it. Wang Dong is not only a warrior now, but also a special soldier. What can happen to him?
Just wait and see, he is in the army, and he will definitely not be able to come back early until the mission is over, just like Dad often did this before."
The speaker was Wang Qi. During the winter vacation, he had been working as a temporary worker in Jiangnan City, and he had just arrived back the day before.
At this time, he was sitting with his father and Wang Feng.
Wang Qi, Wang Jing, and Luo Ping said this in the room.
Now their house has three bedrooms and one living room, which is much larger than the original one. From time to time, Luo Ping will stay here for a few nights.
Since Wang Dong became a warrior and joined the special forces, the Luo family has not had much trouble with her relationship with Wang Feng. The two have basically reached the point of discussing marriage.
"Dad, Mom, fifth brother is back. Someone drove a military vehicle and sent him downstairs. He also brought back a lot of things. I'll go and get them for him."
Just as he was talking, Wang Ping suddenly rushed out of the bedroom. He had been lying by the window, observing the situation outside.
"Go, go, you are already in your second year of high school, why are you still acting like a child? There is no certainty at all."
The worry on her face finally dissipated, but Lin Meiling couldn't help but say Wang Ping.
He smiled, but Quan Dang didn't hear him, and Wang Ping rushed downstairs quickly.
"Brother Luo, come up and sit down?"
The person who sent Wang Dong back was Luo Bing. Compared with ordinary troops, Storm Troopers' usual management is not very strict.
During non-mission periods, you can basically enter and leave the military area freely as long as you get permission from the captain.
If it hadn't been for the tight schedule recently and the team members have been honing cooperation with Wang Dong and other issues, they could have rushed back a few days earlier.
"Next time, you will also see how many calls your sister-in-law received along the way."
With that said, Luo Bing restarted the car and waved to Wang Dong again: "See you next year."
"Haha, okay then, see you next year."
Knowing that Luo Bing couldn't wait to go home, Wang Dong didn't force him. He waved his hand and watched him leave quickly.
"Brother, let me help you get something."
At this time, Wang Ping also arrived. He was about to take over the many large and small bags from Wang Dong and see what was there. Suddenly, his eyes froze again: "Hey, brother, what are you doing?"
Is it time for a promotion?"
It cannot be said that they come from a military family, but Wang Tiancong has served in the army for many years, so the Wang brothers are naturally not too unfamiliar with matters in the army.
What Wang Ping was staring at at this time was Wang Dong's epaulettes, one bar and one star. He had only been in the army for half a year, and Wang Dong was already a second lieutenant!
If placed in a general army, a second lieutenant would be qualified to serve as a platoon leader, with thirty or forty men and thirty or forty guns under his command.
"What kind of official is this?"
Shaking his head and smiling, he put the things in his hands into Wang Ping's hands, and Wang Dong said, "We'll talk about this when we get back. By the way, the second brother is home too?"
"I came back yesterday."
He didn't dwell on it anymore. He took the thing and took a look at it. Suddenly, Wang Ping's mouth watered again.
Among the dozen or so bags, they were all filled with meat products, including cured meat, canned meat, and fresh animal meat... For Wang Ping, who usually only eats synthetic food, this was nothing less than delicacies from the mountains and the sea...
These are the year-end benefits provided by the Storm Camp. There is a training jungle where exotic animals are kept in captivity. These are the things that the camp headquarters does not lack the most.
With that said, the two of them walked upstairs.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back."
"Second brother, long time no see!"
"Wang Feng, Sister Ping, hehe, when are you going to do something?"
"Okay, sit down quickly, it's time for us to have the reunion dinner." This was Lin Meiling's voice.
"Mom, wait a minute. Fifth brother brought back a lot of meat. You and fourth sister should cook it quickly." This was Wang Ping's voice.
"Hey, Xiao Dong, when did you get promoted to second lieutenant?" This was Wang Tiancong's voice. Rarely, seeing Wang Dong's epaulettes, he took the initiative to speak.
"In the military region's annual competition a few days ago, I did well. The battalion gave me a second-class merit note. In addition, since my unit is in a military rank, it is easier to get promoted, so I was promoted."
In the Storm Troopers, lieutenants and lieutenants are just ordinary members. Only captains are qualified to be captains. When they are promoted to generals, they can be mentioned as majors. But by this time, it is almost time to leave the team, at least in name.
The last one left.
"Okay! You have to keep working hard, but you must also pay attention to safety!"
At this time, a heartfelt smile finally appeared on Wang Tiancong's face... If his injury can be exchanged for Lao Wu's progress and future, then his injury will not be in vain.
"Second brother, have you settled down yet?"
"It's almost done. The Xu Group and I have reached a preliminary agreement. We just need to wait until the school starts next year and coordinate with the school before we can go directly."
…
On the bustling New Year's Eve, the Wang family had not had such an atmosphere for many years. Everyone talked until late at night before entering the bedroom one after another.
Later, while waiting for midnight, Wang Dong paid New Year's greetings to the three battalion commanders, Luo Bing and others, and naturally he did not forget about Tang Ning and others.
Everything has been completed, just in the living room, maintaining the same habit as before. In the new year, Wang Dong's first physical training practice started as usual.
"I am 19 years old. My goal this year is to become a high-level soldier. At the same time, when performing patrol missions, I also want to kill as many strange beasts as possible in exchange for enough money and military merit."
The steps of body refining, pulse opening, refining Qi, nourishing Qi and regulating the mind were all completed. Wang Dong walked back to the bedroom softly, and at the same time set a goal for himself for this year.
At dawn, I will not mention New Year greetings to my parents and giving them red envelopes for the first time.
Wang Dong only stayed at home for two days. He could only send New Year greetings to his uncle and sister-in-law by phone. On the afternoon of the second day of the Lunar New Year, he hurried back to the military area.
There is only half a month until the first patrol mission begins. The tacit understanding of cooperation between him and the team members still needs to be continuously cultivated and improved through countless trainings.
"Wrong, Wang Dong, Luo Qiang is behind you. If a strange beast breaks through his barrage and crashes towards you, your first reaction should not be to avoid it, but how to block it."
"Wang Dong, the timing of drawing the sword cannot be fast or slow. Only when three people draw the sword at the same time can they pose the greatest threat to the opponent."
"Remember, our opponents are alien beasts, large-scale alien beasts. When fighting them, every blow must be clean and sharp, and we must not give them any chance to struggle. Otherwise, you will be the one who is in danger."
…
It is completely different from the training of the reserve team. Wang Dong's tacit understanding training with the team is cultivated more through actual combat, especially group combat.
Sometimes they were besieging Deputy Battalion Commander Xu, and sometimes they were fighting in groups with other teams. Of course, the weapons were all made of rubber swords.
In the beginning, Luo Bing would drink a few times from time to time, but after a few days, his scolding gradually began to decrease.
When the Lantern Festival was approaching, I couldn't even hear a sound for most of the day.
With full concentration, Wang Dong's tacit understanding of cooperation with the team is improving rapidly.
This day.
"Team 2!" "Arrived!"
"Team 4!" "Arrived!"
"Team 6!" "Arrived!"
…
Xu Ming personally called the names, and it was finally time for the patrol mission of the even-numbered team to begin.
