A generation of soldiers begins with Feng Yuxiu traveling through time and space with Xu Sanduo

Chapter 153 Feng Yuxiu retires from the army?
"Captain, drink some water."

Feng Yuxiu smiled shyly for the first time and humbly poured a glass of water.

Gao Cheng sat on the stool and stared at Feng Yuxiu with his eyes slanted, looking him up and down, as if trying to see a flower.

Wu Liuyi coughed in an attempt to break the deadlock.

"No, no..." Gao Cheng immediately pointed at Wu Liuyi, "No need to cough, I'm not here to beat anyone."

Wu Liuyi smiled awkwardly and stepped back, "Company Commander, this is a good thing. The regiment will not pursue the matter."

"Well, that's a good thing. I was wondering if all the propaganda officers in the regiment were infected with bad habits. Last time it was Officer Zhang, and now there's another one who specifically targets the soldiers of my Seventh Steel Company."

When Gao Cheng said the three words "Steel Seventh Company", he paused slightly.

"Xu Sanduo." Gao Cheng raised his head and said softly.

"To!"

Feng Yuxiu immediately straightened his back.

"I heard that you won a great honor for the group this time."

Feng Yuxiu blinked and said, "It's just something that happened."

"You're too modest. You can chase three armed gangsters with your bare hands. You're too modest." Gao Cheng stood up suddenly and looked at him fiercely.

Feng Yuxiu quickly took a few steps back. "Company Commander, if you don't believe me, ask the squad leader. It was really a coincidence. I was forced to that point. How could I have the guts to do that?"

"Pfft."

Wu Liuyi quickly covered his mouth and turned to look out the window.

"Wu Liuyi, my armored reconnaissance battalion is short of manpower. I'll tell your company commander to transfer you to my team."

Feng Yuxiu was slightly delighted and patted the bewildered Wu Liuyi on the shoulder. "Good job, squad leader! The company commander will take care of you when you go to the armored reconnaissance battalion."

Wu Liuyi was silent.

Feng Yuxiu looked at him with confusion on his face.

Gao Cheng's brows flashed with anger, "Are you going to keep that favor of yours again?"

Wu Liuyi forced a smile and said, "Company Commander, we should always remember to be grateful, right? Steel Company 7 has produced a talented person. Do you also want our company to produce a Wu Liuyi?"

Gao Cheng felt depressed. The paper sign at the dinner party that day had circled around and hit him.

But he was still happy in his heart. After all this time in the 7th Steel Company, only one talented person came out. What did this prove? He, Gao Cheng, was deeply loved by the people. He could make the soldiers in the company remember his kindness. He would be the squad leader or deputy squad leader in any company he went to. What a proud thing it was.

"Okay, why am I telling you two such nonsense? Xu Sanduo, you are a piece of gold. You won't be guarding the warehouse forever. So, control your irritable heart from now on."

After Gao Cheng finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.

"Captain, let me see you off." Feng Yuxiu hurriedly followed.

"Get away from me, you idiot."

Gao Cheng's cursing voice gradually faded away.

Class 3 fell into silence for a moment, and Feng Yuxiu placed the glass of water that Gao Cheng had not drunk back in front of Wu Liuyi.

"Deputy, I'm sorry to have caused you so much trouble."

Wu Liuyi stood up with a cold face and walked out.

Feng Yuxiu touched the calluses between his fingers, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

In fact, there is no need to live so cautiously.

However, the betrayal and pursuit in his previous life made it impossible for him to change in a short period of time.

His original intention is being hunted and constantly challenged, unless there is a major change that completely reverses his inner perspective.

Otherwise, he would always hide the killing and abuse.

As everyone said, it's a good thing he is in the army. If he were released, it would cause social instability.

The Seventh Company returned to a quiet life, and Feng Yuxiu also returned to normal training.

The seven major tendons were completely stabilized after a month, and the gaps between the tendons would not be stretched or lengthened by further attacks.

So, the day before the central military column reporter came, the entire 702nd Regiment began to clean up.

The staff of the division headquarters even came to supervise in person.

Feng Yuxiu and Wu Liuyi were called out with confused looks on their faces.

"Don't be so nervous. Military reporters will be coming tomorrow. The grassroots units haven't had such brave recruits for many years. Moreover, Xu Sanduo, you helped the local police solve two major cases in succession. This is a good thing, and it will be a good thing from the division headquarters to the regiment headquarters."

The chief of staff smiled cheerfully and said that the group would definitely commend him.

Moreover, due to the interview of the central military column, the merit originally reported was transferred from the regiment to the battalion, to the brigade, and finally directly to the army through the division headquarters.

The document is probably on that person's desk now.

Therefore, their division headquarters had to pay attention to it.

The army needs a role model, a role model!
Therefore, the two of them boarded the high-speed rocket directly.

This achievement has exceeded the significance of the event itself.

From division headquarters to the grassroots companies, which cadre didn't care? Everyone was waiting for the interview with the reporters from the central government.

We must make these two soldiers in front of us role models for the entire army!

This society is really too chaotic, and we need to recruit a few typical people into the army to maintain social order.

"Hurry up and do your work. The merit report from the military district will be released at 2 pm. You should be ready then."

"Report!" Wu Liuyi shouted loudly.

"Relax, don't be so nervous." The chief of staff smiled gently.

"Report to the commander, what should we say? Actually, this matter is Xu Sanduo alone..."

"Comrade Wu Liuyi."

The Chief of Staff interrupted Wu Liuyi with a serious expression, "I'm not asking you to express your opinions. Follow orders!"

"Yes!"

"Comrade Xu Sanduo, you are the main hero this time. During the interview, you must emphasize the army's sense of honor and your personal sense of justice. Do you understand?"

The chief of staff stepped forward and gave instructions in a soft voice.

"Yes!"

"Very good, very good. Go and get ready. Just don't be nervous. I have something to talk to your leader about."

The chief of staff drove towards the distant regimental headquarters.

Wu Liuyi sighed, "Why do you have to include me? I was just driving the car, and you were the one who caught the person, so the credit should all be yours. Why should I take it all?"

Feng Yuxiu smiled and stretched, "It's just personal heroism."

"What?" Wu Liuyi turned around and asked in confusion, "Why do you think so? What does this have to do with that?"

"One person is individual heroism, two people are teamwork, killing the criminals and saving the people. The latter should be praised more. The army is about unity and solidarity."

"I think this is the main reason why the division chief of staff interrupted you just now."

Listening to Feng Yuxiu's analysis, even Wu Liuyi, who insisted on his inner thoughts, showed a hesitant expression at this moment.

"Then I am still benefiting from you." Wu Liuyi accepted this. He never bothered to take advantage of others. What was his was his, and what was not his would just turn around and leave.

His principle is to treat everyone equally.

Now the principle has been changed.

He could not resist the honor that was about to come from the entire army.

-

"Squad Leader, should we prepare too?"

In the fifth squad of the grassland, the still strong short Xue Lin stood up straight and spoke. Looking at these soldiers, he found that they did not look as dejected as Lao Ma before.

Chengcai's arrival has made the four words "strict standards" deeply engraved in their bones.

He is also very strict with himself.

Chengcai's eyes were heavy, "I don't know where that idiot got his good luck from."

In fact, he was a little depressed. He wrote a letter to his father a few days ago, saying that he had been promoted from squad leader to non-commissioned officer.

His father, the village chief, held a day-long banquet for this occasion, and finally dispelled the shadow cast by Xu Baishun over his family.

But now, the shadow had just been dispelled a little bit, and it enveloped us again.

But this time the shadow was so huge that Chengcai knew very well that without special luck and desperate efforts, the shadow of Xu Baishun's family would continue to cover the entire village.

Lower Banyan Tree and Upper Banyan Tree were originally a large village in the east and west.

It is said that they are starting to merge now because a group of people who came from nowhere have set their eyes on that mountain.

"Monitor?"

Xue Lin's voice brought Chengcai back from his memories.

"Oh, just keep going about your normal routine. There's no way those people would come to our place."

Chengcai was too lazy to pay attention to these demoralized soldiers. After only a few days of arriving, the atmosphere here made him regret it so much that his intestines turned green. After all, he was a person with strict standards.

This is entirely due to the fine traditions of the 7th Steel Company.

He began to miss the 7th Steel Company. If he had stayed in the 7th Steel Company, would he have received the reward from his superiors?
He always thought that he was much better than that idiot, and was good in every aspect, not to mention his military qualities.

His marksmanship is among the top three even in the 7th Steel Company.

But he had no share in the first twenty of Feng Yuxiu's career.

Xue Lin turned his head away and disagreed. After Feng Yuxiu came to Grassland Class 5, he relied on his own efforts to get up step by step.

In the army-wide reform competition, he broke the army's records continuously and won the third-class merit.

He never achieved such a feat in his success.

But he didn't dare say this.

-

-

Feng Yuxiu didn't take it to heart. Whether it was a reporter from the military column or not wouldn't change anything for him.

Perhaps it would be good publicity for the troops.

But what can it bring to him?

His diploma is always here, and in the end he is just a private.

A soldier king, even if he is promoted, still has to meet the most basic educational requirements.

Officers and soldiers are two different things, just like the police and auxiliary police in the previous life.

Although this life is not so difficult, a high school diploma is still easy to obtain.

He was not interested in this, as the barrier in his heart was always martial arts.

Invincible martial arts skills!

Reforms will begin next year. He may retire from the army and then go to his master's sect to obtain the master's secret method from the old man.

Then go to Hong Kong and kill Xiahou Wu and Lu Xuanxin!

the next day.

Wang Qingrui was waiting in person at the team's door, but there were no other senior cadres behind him, but instead a group of political cadres.

They are all iron-pen-wielding people who came down from the division headquarters.

Feng Yuxiu and Wu Liuyi rarely stood next to the leaders and enjoyed the envious gazes of the entire regiment.

"Captain, you said you would arrive at 10 o'clock in the morning. It's almost time now. Won't you be late?" the political cadre asked nervously.

Wang Qingrui smiled and said, "Why rush? We have the division headquarters accompanying us. All we have to do is wait."

"In order to prepare for this interview, the entire group did a thorough cleaning for three consecutive days. Even the gaps between the bricks were swept with a brush. The floor could be used as a mirror." "No need to clean if you don't inspect it?" Wang Qingrui asked.

"Report to the commander, I dare not! I will review it!"

"I'm coming!!!"

An officer rushed in from the doorway, "Report to the regiment commander, the military vehicles are already one kilometer away, three of them!"

"Okay, get ready! Xu Sanduo, Wu Liuyi."

"Here!" The two of them stepped forward together.

"Don't be nervous. The division headquarters sent an order in advance. Your merits will be presented together with the interview. First, the medals will be awarded, and then the interviews will be conducted. You must be serious and treat the unit as your home."

The political cadre stepped forward and gave instructions nervously.

Wu Liuyi took a deep breath and his whole body tensed up.

On the contrary, Feng Yuxiu remained calm.

Three military vehicles drove into the regiment headquarters in a mighty manner.

There was a driver standing at the head car, carrying a camera and recording the whole journey.

"Here they are. Shall we go and welcome them?" the clerk asked in a deep voice.

Wang Qingrui laughed and said, "Why would I greet a reporter? Don't you understand the significance of an interview? Am I the political officer, or are you?"

The car stopped at the training ground. The most elite soldiers from the surrounding companies were training in full swing, and their shouts were deafening.

Seven or eight soldiers in casual uniforms got off the carriage behind them, three of them each carrying a plaque.

[Second Class Individual Meritorious Service Model of the Army]

"Second-class hero? Aren't there two? Why only one?" an officer whispered.

Wang Qingrui also frowned.

"Wu Liuyi's, look at the name below."

"Where's Xu Sanduo's?"

As they were talking, three people got out of the last car, carefully carrying a huge red-lacquered wooden plaque. The bright gold-plated characters reflected strong light under the scorching sun.

[First-class individual meritorious service model of the entire army]

"First-class merit???"

"That's not the case. Why is it so exaggerated?"

Wang Qingrui narrowed his eyes. "The combined merits of the Army Academy and the local armed police are at most second-class merits, not first-class merits."

"Captain, why did you give Xu Sanduo the first-class merit?"

Wang Qingrui smiled and said, "Liuwan Village, because Xu Sanduo and Wu Liuyi saved the village, this is the main reason for the surge in first-class merit. Xu Sanduo's criticism of the local police was not so exaggerated, and the latter is the reason for the publicity."

"You mean, if there wasn't Liuwan Village, the Central Military News wouldn't have come down?"

Wang Qingrui smiled but said nothing. This was just a way of showing off personally.

The whole regiment was assembled.

On the high platform, Feng Yuxiu and Wu Liuyi came on stage to receive the award in front of the whole group.

The reporters below were snapping photos of the two people on the stage.

After a whole morning, Feng Yuxiu and Wu Liuyi were placed in the regiment headquarters.

"Xu Sanduo, are you still going to interview us?" Wu Liuyi sat restlessly.

Feng Yuxiu shook his head. "I guess they're here to record the grassroots troops. We two wouldn't be worth such a big fuss. They just heard that the reporters from above were coming, so they made us two examples."

Wu Liuyi was stunned for a moment, "How do you know so clearly?"

Feng Yuxiu did not answer. This kind of thing was tacitly understood and it had become a tradition after twenty or thirty years.

Wu Liuyi lowered his head and looked at the second-class merit medal on his chest, feeling a little dazed.

"In this day and age, to get a second-class merit, you either risk your life or bleed. Is it so easy for the two of us?"

He still felt that all this was too abrupt and unrealistic.

Feng Yuxiu polished the badge on his chest with his fingers, "This is the vent."

"What? What mouth?"

"I'm going back. I still have things to do." Feng Yuxiu did not feel complacent because of the first-class merit. Killing a criminal in this era was far from being worthy of a first-class merit.

Wu Liuyi was the one who went to Yangliu Village to report the news. In terms of merit, Wu Liuyi was actually the first.

The military column reporters did indeed publicize the two people, but they recorded more about the development process of the 702nd Regiment and the forward-looking, technological and high-quality military reform.

Three days later, Feng Yuxiu watched in astonishment as a black and white TV was moved to Class 3.

"What is this doing?"

"Well, tonight at nine o'clock the military section will broadcast the record of the 702nd Regiment. You are the protagonist this time. The regiment commander asked you to watch it too. We will move back tomorrow."

After saying that, they left quickly.

Feng Yuxiu looked at the big-butt black and white TV and fiddled with the two antennas on it.

Turn around and lean against the wall to continue doing handstand to exercise your muscles.

Glory is not sustainable, especially in grassroots companies, and it is only temporary.

After a few days of being in the spotlight, Feng Yuxiu still guarded the warehouse alone.

I took a look at the New Year calendar above and saw that the New Year was only a month away.

It was his first time celebrating the Chinese New Year in this era.

but……

Standing downstairs of the dormitory building and looking at the empty dormitory building, he couldn't feel any joy at all.

Fortunately, this is him. He is used to being alone and wandering in loneliness.

Otherwise, if someone else were to take his place, Lao Ma would have followed in their footsteps.

The cold wind also dispelled the scorching heat, but on the training ground, the soldiers were still wearing light clothes, and the sweat on their bodies was quickly dried by the cold wind.

They had to continue training hard to drive away the cold.

All the company commanders and squad leaders happily fell in love with winter.

Especially when I saw that the soldiers in each company were fighting more bravely than before.

The training tasks also increased exponentially.

Feng Yuxiu was wearing a short-sleeved shirt, preparing to run 50 kilometers today.

"Xu Sanduo, there's a letter from home!"

Wu Liuyi ran over with a letter in his hand. "It just so happens that we are from the same village. I was sending money home when I came across your letter and brought it back with me."

"Take it."

Wu Liuyi stuffed it in.

Feng Yuxiu was silent for a few seconds and then tore open the envelope.

Wu Liuyi stretched, looked around and took out a cigarette. He liked coming to the 7th Steel Company recently. There were no patrols here to smoke.

"What are you talking about?" Wu Liuyi asked casually.

Feng Yuxiu frowned, "It's coming."

"What's coming?" Wu Liuyi asked after blowing out a puff of smoke.

"I...my father is going to join the army and asked me to retire and live a good life with him." Feng Yuxiu was very stiff when he said the word "my father". He was not used to calling him that.

pat.

The cigarette held between Wu Liuyi's right fingers fell weakly to the ground.

"When will we arrive?" Wu Liuyi's face turned bleak and his voice became weak.

"Based on the time of sending the letter, let's do it tomorrow." Feng Yuxiu said calmly.

"What do you think?" Wu Liuyi turned and stared into Feng Yuxiu's eyes, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Feng Yuxiu didn't say anything, but looked at the empty 7th Steel Company.

"It's better to retreat. There's no point in guarding alone. It's better to fight."

He was a little excited. If he really retired from the army, he would go to his master's sect as soon as possible.

In the previous life, he let that old guy run away. In this life... he fought hard for his master, and the best was left to his son!

Why should he leave it to that brain-dead son? He doesn't agree with this kind of inheritance!
"Don't even think about it, Xu Sanduo. No one will agree. You just won a first-class merit and are planning to retire right now. Are you dreaming? The problem now is to let your father see that you are very prestigious in the army."

"Like my father, the older generation of rural elders all love face and like to be complimented! You're the only one in the Seventh Steel Company right now. If your father sees this miserable state, he'll definitely make a scene at the regimental headquarters. If word gets to division headquarters, who knows... Just wait, I'll go get them!"

After Wu Liuyi finished his analysis, he turned around and ran out.

Feng Yuxiu didn't care. It didn't matter where he was.

I have been guarding the warehouse for almost a year, and my mood has long been calm.

"Old squad leader, we are here to move the TV. You really looked great on camera last night. It was an honor." The two non-commissioned officers greeted Feng Yuxiu with a smile.

"Okay, it's on the third floor. You guys go and move it. Or you can check to see if anything is broken?" Feng Yuxiu followed.

"Hey, what you said is true. With your contribution, it's okay if that thing is smashed. It's mainly borrowed from the regiment headquarters, otherwise I really don't want to move it around, so I'll leave it here for you to kill time and read."

The two went upstairs and carried the TV downstairs.

"The old squad leader left first."

Feng Yuxiu nodded.

There was no entertainment at all in this era. He suddenly realized that he had been alone in this empty company headquarters for almost a year.

Time flies... so fast.

Three hours later.

Wu Liuyi brought Ma Xiaoshuai, Gan Xiaoning, and Bai Tiejun together and came, followed by four squads of soldiers.

"What is this for?" Feng Yuxiu asked in surprise.

"Don't worry about it."

Wu Liuyi waved his hand, turned around and shouted, "Everyone, go up one by one, lock all the empty dormitories, and hang up the "Do Not Enter" signs! After you're done, clean up thoroughly and make sure the floor is spotless!"

"Sergeant, what does it mean to be able to reflect others?" Bai Tiejun touched his head.

Wu Liuyi suppressed his inner anger and said, "Make the floor as smooth as a mirror! Get ready, get to work!"

A trace of surprise flashed across Feng Yuxiu's brows. "Just tell the truth, you're not the kind of person who would fool people with lies, are you? Don't you hate deception the most?"

Wu Liuyi seemed not to hear what Feng Yuxiu said. He turned around and walked into the dormitory building.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Xu, I was wrong. I allowed myself to fall. Who was this for?"

"Oh, I didn't mean that." Feng Yuxiu explained hurriedly.

"Just be like usual and keep your mouth shut. That way I'll feel better and be able to resist the urge to hit you."

After working for a whole afternoon, several people led the soldiers from each squad to leave in an orderly manner.

"Remember, gather here at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Xu Sanduo's father, considering the earliest train and the distance between him and the company, won't arrive until at least 10 o'clock."

After Wu Liuyi finished speaking, he glanced at Feng Yuxiu and said, "You are not a retired soldier, and it is impossible for you to return to the army. Just let the old man rest assured. Let's go."

Feng Yuxiu stared at his comrades in amazement.

He stood there for four hours until dusk fell and then turned and went upstairs.

He pulled the light cord, sat on the chair and spread out the letter.

"Retirement..."
