Chapter 16 Northeast! Liaodong Military Region! [Seeking monthly tickets! Seeking investment! Seeking follow-up reading! ] "Boom, boom, boom." The green train sped along, carrying more and more recruits away from their hometown. Zhao Weihong thought that it wouldn't take long before they arrived at the recruit company. As a result, two days and two nights passed, and the reply from the NCOs was still "It will be there soon." Isn't this just treating people like fools? Although everyone knows that all the non-commissioned officers must know how long it will take them to arrive. But no recruit was willing to dig deeper, so they could only huddle in their seats with sore backs, listening to the unique stench of the green train and praying that they would reach their destination soon. If you want to join the army these days, not only will you suffer in the army, but even the process of going to the army is quite torturous. The current Yan State is not yet the world-famous "infrastructure maniac" of later generations. Not to mention high-speed rail, even the number of railway lines is pitifully small.
During the enlistment season in late November, troops across the country receive new recruits. A special troop transport train often departs from the garrison, makes a big circle from east to west and from south to north in Yan Country, passing through more than a dozen provinces, before it can bring all the new recruits this year back to the army. And due to normal passenger transport work, it is still in progress. The troop transport train has very little "right of way" on the railway and has to stop at any time to avoid other passing trains. How could it be that fast! Not to mention two days and two nights, if your luck is bad, it is possible to double it! However, the new recruits in the same carriage also took this opportunity to fight each other. Come to think of it, after smelling each other's stinky feet for several days, it's impossible for their relationship to be bad! "Wei Hong, aren't you on good terms with Platoon Leader Shi?" "How about you go and ask?" Waking up from his sleep again, Quan Shigan couldn't help himself and asked a tentative question to Zhao Weihong who had just opened her eyes. In response to him, Zhao Weihong shook her head like a rattle. Are you kidding me? Although riding a greenskin is a very painful thing. But Zhao Weihong would rather sit there for another week than have to face Shi Jidong’s “approachable” smile again! "Oh okay." Quan Shiqian sighed in disappointment, his eyes casually swept across the car window, and then immediately widened his eyes. "Snowing?" "Such heavy snow?" As soon as these words were spoken, the other recruits woke up from their sleep and rushed to the window to admire the falling snow outside. The people in their carriage were basically all new recruits from Longxi Province. Although snow was rare in winter, it was not uncommon, so it was not enough to make them so excited.
But outside the window, there was endless heavy snow that covered the sky and the sun, something that Longxi only saw once in several years! "Good guy!" "This must be the Northeast!" "Wei Hong, are we going to come to the Northeast to serve as soldiers?" As soon as he finished speaking, Quan Shiqian seemed to feel a slight chill and immediately hugged himself. "Damn it, I'm most afraid of the cold." "probably." Zhao Weihong was also admiring the northern scenery that she was seeing for the first time, and replied perfunctorily. Even if the experience in the "dream" is included, it was Zhao Weihong's first time to set foot on the land of Northeast China. Apart from the well-known song "My home is in the Northeast~", Zhao Weihong's only impression of the Northeast is the anecdote that one cannot lick iron in winter. Oh, and there is that powerful team that made its mark in history. Northeast Field Army! "Great!" "The Northeast is the territory of the Liaodong Military Region. We must be soldiers of the Liaodong Military Region, and we are the army!" The recruits' destination gradually became clear. There were more noisy discussions in the carriage. Zhao Weihong pricked up his ears and carefully collected valuable information. "There are seven major military regions in the country, and the Liaodong Military Region is this one!" "The Army is known as the ace of aces. It's so awesome!" At this point, the new recruit raised his thumb and shook it left and right with a proud look on his face, as if he felt proud to be a member of this glorious group. "Hey, are you all awake?" "What are you talking about? Take me with you." Shi Jidong's elusive figure appeared at the connection of the carriages with a smile on his face, instantly silencing the surrounding discussions. "You won't say anything?" "Okay then, let's clean up now that we've talked enough." "Be ready to get off in one hour!" Shi Jidong's words instantly ignited the atmosphere in the car! Many recruits even had tears in their eyes, and it was unclear whether they were because of excitement or because of the stinky feet of their comrades. It’s finally here! Zhao Weihong was also a little excited at this moment, and her heartbeat quickened uncontrollably, almost jumping out of her chest. Driven by this mood, the last hour was particularly difficult.
When the train slowly stopped, the recruits immediately picked up their luggage and got off the train nervously and excitedly. So cold. It’s so fucking cold. This was the only feeling Zhao Weihong had after stepping off the train. Looking around, all you see is flawless white, full of tranquil beauty. But no matter how beautiful the scenery is, you must be in the mood to appreciate it. This group of shivering recruits with their arms folded obviously did not have the leisure to appreciate the scenery. This is the winter in Northeast China. It can make people feel cold from the depths of their soul. Zhao Weihong was even numb from the cold, and walked into the station in a daze under the guidance of Shi Jidong. It was still relatively warm inside the station, and Zhao Weihong's numb limbs regained feeling in an instant. To be honest, Zhao Weihong didn't want to go out. Even Zhao Weihong thought so, let alone the other recruits! But Shi Jidong seemed to have guessed what they were thinking. He turned around and spoke very gently. "All caught up." At this moment, the recruits suddenly felt a chill that penetrated even deeper into their bones than before. In other words, it is murderous intent! For an old soldier like Shi Jidong, if he wants to establish his authority in front of the new recruits, he doesn't need to use any means. Just a glance can make these flowers grown in the greenhouse obedient! Walking out of the station with gritted teeth, the recruits immediately saw their next means of transportation. A dozen large trucks. The convertible kind. To put it bluntly, in this weather, it is hard to tell whether this truck is a means of transportation or a torture device. Zhao Weihong noticed that a group of recruits not far from them broke into a riot the moment they saw the truck. However, this situation is impossible to happen to Zhao Weihong. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Even if these new recruits had eight guts, they wouldn't dare to explode in front of Shi Jidong! No matter how reluctant they were, the recruits had to climb onto the truck one by one. Zhao Weihong had bad luck and had to sit at the back. Even with the tarpaulin blocking the view, Zhao Weihong could still feel the cold wind outside howling into the car. However, what surprised Zhao Weihong was that after all the recruits had boarded the bus, Shi Jidong actually jumped onto the bus as well, and did not run to the co-pilot seat as Zhao Weihong had guessed. The others also saw it, and the grievance and resentment that had been lingering in their hearts since they got off the car suddenly dissipated a little. "Each car reports the boarding situation."
"Car number one is in place." "Car number two is in place." Under the gaze of the recruits, Shi Jidong took out his walkie-talkie and answered crisply. "Car number twelve is in position." "Okay, let's go!" Along with the orders coming from the walkie-talkie, trucks started to move slowly and shakily, carrying a group of trembling recruits to the place where the dream began! Recruit company! An hour ago, the recruits were still dreaming about their military life. Now, no one thinks about this anymore. As the truck accelerated, the cold wind outside became more and more fierce, making the recruits feel a knife-like pain on all their exposed skin. No communication is required. A dozen or so recruits in the carriage spontaneously huddled together and huddled in the corner, trying to resist the cold in this way, but with little success. Shi Jidong seemed to be unable to feel the coldness around him. He still sat in the corner of the carriage with his back straight like a statue. Seeing this, a sense of respect arose in Zhao Weihong's heart, which made him move closer and ask tremblingly. "Platoon Leader" “Is it just a matter of staying in the Northeast for a long time?” "Can I adapt to the climate here like you?" Hearing this, Shi Jidong shook his head in a mysterious manner. "No." "Is it because our quality is not as good as yours?" "As long as you train hard, you can do it" Before Zhao Weihong could finish speaking, Shi Jidong denied it again. "Not at all." Ok? Why is that? How did Shi Jidong manage to hold on in such a cold day? Just as Zhao Weihong was pondering, thinking about Shi Jidong's "ability" to resist the cold. Shi Jidong slowly turned his head, showing his yellow teeth to Zhao Weihong, and spoke with a wicked smile. "Because I'm wearing a cotton coat." The second update is here for today!
