When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 106 The King of Soldiers!

"Well done, Ah Shui!"

After the three of them left Li Zhiyuan, Xu Ge praised Li Dongshui.

"Xu Ge, wasn't it a bit inappropriate for you to speak to the third platoon leader like that?" Li Dongshui asked. "He seems to hold grudges a bit!"

"He's going to his unit tomorrow. I'll give him face and call him 'Platoon Leader,' but if I don't, I won't even acknowledge him! Wasn't our first crackdown all because of this guy? I hold a grudge even more than he does!"

Xu Ge looked indifferent and continued, "But it's strange, why did he come here to poach me?"

"Because you got first place in the physical fitness test among the new recruits." Kaiyoumu and Li Dongshui said in unison.

"What? I'm the best in the entire battalion in physical fitness?" Xu Ge was quite surprised.

"You do not know?"

"do not know!"

Kaiyu explained, "This training exercise will be recorded in the tactical and physical fitness assessment scores. You were the first to enter the safe zone, Ashui was the second, and my physical fitness score was zero."

Xu Ge suddenly realized: "So, Li Dongshui, you took my first place in tactics?"

Li Dongshui: "At that time, only the three of us arrived first. You two went to fight. I thought we couldn't let our whole class be wiped out, so I crawled over and fired a few shots."

"What, are you having second thoughts?" Kaiyu asked with a smile.

Xu Ge shook his head: "I definitely don't regret it. If something like this happens again, I'll still fight them. But that guy named Wang Long is really good at fighting!"

Kaiyuki: "Yeah! I can't beat him either..."

The three walked and talked, and soon arrived at the wall. Rows of tricycles loaded with goods were lined up, and the new recruits were enthusiastically buying things.

"These people are really well-informed. They knew we were coming down to the detachment and were going to spend money tonight. Even the heavy snow blocking the mountains couldn't stop them!" Xu Ge exclaimed.

Li Dongshui pointed to the domineering man on the far side: "Uncle Wang is here, let's go buy from him!"

Xu Ge stood there dawdling, unwilling to move, when Kaiyoumu tugged at him: "Come on, what are you standing there for?"

Xu Ge felt a little guilty: "I don't have anything I want to buy, so why don't I just wait here for you two..."

"Hey, Xu Ge, you're here! I specially saved some good stuff for you!" Unexpectedly, Old Wang took the initiative to greet them, waving to Xu Ge.

Xu Ge knew he couldn't avoid it, so he came over despite his fear, but he didn't dare to look at Lao Wang.

"What good stuff is it, Uncle Wang?" Li Dongshui asked curiously, unaware of Xu Ge's unusual behavior.

Old Wang pointed to the trunk: "Two cases of Sunshine City beer, how about it, never tried them before?"

Kaiyoumu's eyes lit up: "I've had it before. I had it once when I went to the snow area for training two years ago. It tasted delicious!"

"You have good taste! Hahaha, do you want it?"

"want!"

After handing over the beer, Lao Wang started helping Kaiyoumu and Li Dongshui pack their things. Once he was done, he looked at Xu Ge and smiled, "Xu Ge, why aren't you saying anything today? Did you get upset again and become mute?"

"No...no!"

"I heard that you bit one of the Tianlang people's legs during the training exercise today?" Old Wang said with a half-smile.

Xu Ge remained silent, thinking to himself that what was bound to happen had finally arrived.

"Uncle Wang, it was Tianlang's people who bullied us first. Besides, they even knocked Xu Ge unconscious!"

Li Dongshui quickly recounted what had happened that afternoon.

"Wow, there are so many stories behind this?" Old Wang looked at Xu Ge.

Xu Ge: "Uncle Wang, what Li Dongshui said is true."

Old Wang nodded, ending the conversation. Seeing the three preparing to leave, he leaned against the car and asked, "You're going to your units tomorrow. Given your performance, have any other units tried to poach you?"

"Yes, but we will definitely follow the platoon leader and squad leader. I think everyone is doing well," Li Dongshui replied.

"Xu Ge, what about you?"

"Me too!"

. . .

. . .

After buying the goods, Du Hu was pleasantly surprised to find that there was Sunshine City beer, and he quickly invited Luo Shan over as well.

"cheers!"

At Luo Shan's command, everyone, whether they could drink or not, raised their glasses and clinked them together.

With their upcoming assignments to their respective units, and Du Hu going to the military dog ​​unit, this is a farewell for the new recruits.

Those easily moved recruits even shed tears under the influence of alcohol.

Li Dongshui held onto the little Si Quan tightly, determined to fight it, which scared the little Si Quan so much that it howled.

Du Hu was both amused and exasperated by these guys: "Look at your pathetic state! I'm being transferred, not dead. What kind of men are you, crying and wailing like this!"

"If this is how it is when you're in the company, what will it be like when you're discharged? Come on, eat and drink to your heart's content!"

At this moment, Luo Shan and Du Hu, unusually, were not displaying their superior authority and were chatting idly with the new recruits.

"Two years will pass quickly."

Du Hu sighed, "What kind of training is this, whether it's parachute training, field training, winter training, or exercises? Each of them takes at least a month or two. Let alone two years, five years have passed in the blink of an eye!"

Luo Shan also became interested. He clinked his cans with a few new recruits, downed his drink in one gulp, and said, "Do you know who is the most trustworthy person in the army?"

The recruits shook their heads.

“They’re from the same year’s recruits!” Luo Shan pointed at the crowd, “especially your comrades from the basic training company!”

"Why is our old company's Squad Leader Guo so awesome? It's because his comrades and squad leader from the recruit training company were awesome!"

"After you go to your units tomorrow, no matter if you are assigned to the same squad or platoon, you will never forget your comrades who trained together in basic training for several months!"

"Correct!"

"Come on, cheers!"

"cheers!"

"Zhou Meng, stop eating and let's have a drink!"

"Ah Shui, I'm so sorry, I'm the one who stained your sheets last time."

"Xu Ge, actually I've already arranged for your workout clothes to be transferred to me..."

The dinner party lasted until it was time to wash up. Several new recruits were so drunk that they wanted to lie down immediately, but Du Hu told everyone to prepare their regular clothes in advance, as they would have to wear them first thing tomorrow morning.

Xu Ge hung his casual clothes by the bedside, tidied up his luggage beforehand, and then lay down.

Li Dongshui was a little dizzy from drinking water and kept muttering to herself, trying to chat with Xu Ge. Xu Ge, annoyed, turned on his phone and said, "Don't bother me, I want to sleep. Didn't you see I haven't replied to Dr. Lin's messages?"

Li Dongshui calmed down and soon fell asleep.

The little dog seemed to sense something, and quietly lay down next to Xu Ge's head, whimpering. Xu Ge reached out and scratched its belly for a while, and it soon fell asleep.

The next morning, the new recruits did not do morning exercises; instead, they packed their bags in their classrooms.

After breakfast, Luo Shan and Du Hu started taking phone calls non-stop. Xu Ge listened to them briefly and it seemed to be about splitting up the troops.

Starting at eight o'clock, various military vehicles began to arrive one after another, picking up a few new recruits. These transfer orders had been arranged in advance.

At 9:30, a long convoy appeared, and the new recruits all knew that the vehicles for their assigned units had arrived.

Beep!
As the whistle blew, Liu Guoping called out from outside for the company to assemble.

The new recruits, dressed in their uniforms, carrying backpacks and luggage, emerged from their dormitories and lined up on the parade ground.

Luo Shan held up a sign that read "6th Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Regiment of the Wolf Brigade" and shouted, "Sixth Company, come and assemble! Get on the vehicle!"

Xu Ge followed the crowd over and looked around. He found that most of them were from the first row, and a few were from the second row.

"Woof! Woof!"

When the little dog saw his friends walking away, he got anxious and rushed over, weaving through the crowd, sometimes biting one person's trouser leg, sometimes jumping onto another's backpack.

Du Hu was still worried. He kept watching until everyone in Class One was seated in the car. He also gave Kaiyoumu a few more instructions before finally reaching out to pull the little dog that was clinging to Xu Ge's leg off. He waved to everyone and turned to leave.

"Woof! Woof!"

"嘤嘤嘤!"

. . .

. . .

Drop drop!
The convoy sounded its horns as it passed the Kangxiwa Martyrs' Cemetery.

The new recruits all stood at attention and saluted as their squad leader reminded them.

To Xu Ge's surprise, the convoy drove into the military post at Thirty Mile Barracks for lunch at noon, indicating that there was still quite a distance to go to the old company.

Just as the food was served, a female officer of the third rank came over with a box of fruit. She went straight to Liu Guoping and asked, "Company Commander, may I ask who Xu Ge is?" The dining area immediately fell silent.

Xu Ge stood up with a puzzled look on his face: "I am, and who are you, class monitor?"

The female officer walked over, looked Xu Ge up and down carefully for a while, and handed him the fruit with a smile: "This is from Dr. Lin."

"Oh haha~"

A chorus of jeers immediately erupted from the crowd.

Xu Ge quickly took it and thanked him, "Thank you, squad leader. Where's Dr. Lin?"

"She went back to Night City to report for duty." The female officer smiled at Xu Ge again, waved, and left.

"Bring it to you!"

Before Xu Ge could react, Kaiyoumu snatched the fruit from his hand. As soon as he opened it, Li Dongshui viciously stabbed a large bunch of cantaloupe into his mouth with a fork.

The next moment, seven or eight forks came flying at him at once, startling Xu Ge so much that he quickly pulled his hand back: "You guys should at least leave me one piece!"

After lunch, the convoy continued its journey.

After the recruits finished their meal, they all leaned against the truck bed and dozed off. When they were jolted awake by a violent jolt, the scene outside the truck had changed drastically.

"Holy crap, what are we supposed to do with this?"

Xu Ge peered out and saw that the surroundings were desolate. There were no people or buildings, only snow and gravel, not even a blade of grass.

The convoy had somehow left the national highway and was now speeding along a dirt road.

"We're taking a shortcut now, and we'll see the barracks soon," Kaiyu said casually, clearly familiar with the area.

Sure enough, half an hour later, a sign for a military restricted area appeared by the roadside, and the road conditions improved.

After the convoy turned onto a concrete road, armored vehicles speeding by and running groups could be seen on both sides.

Drip!

Amidst the honking of horns, Xu Ge's car passed sentry posts with armed guards, and barracks appeared on both sides of the road, with people moving about in each courtyard.

Kaiyou patted Xu Ge on the shoulder: "Do you know the difference between a veteran and a new recruit?"

"What is it?" All the new recruits looked over.

Kaiyumu: "The difference is that veterans always know what they need to do."

"Everyone, stay alert, we'll be there soon!"

Following Luo Shan's shout, the car made two turns and entered a courtyard.

Drip!

Dong dong qiang! Dong dong qiang! Dong qiang dong qiang dong dong qiang!
As the enthusiastic sound of gongs and drums rang out, a group of privates and sergeants rushed over.

"My dear platoon leader, you've lost weight!"

"Hey platoon leader, I've missed you so much! Let's play some games tonight!"

"What are you shouting about? What Women's Federation? You should call me Company Commander now!"

"Holy crap! Kaiyoumu! Hey guys, look, isn't this Kaiyoumu?"

New recruits: ? ? ?

Is this the old company? It doesn't seem so scary, does it?

Beep!
"gather!"

Liu Guoping shouted, and all the veterans immediately lined up and stood in formation. The new recruits also jumped off the vehicle and stood on the other side with their luggage.

The veterans sized up the new recruits, and the new recruits looked at the veterans timidly.

"First, divide the troops. New recruits whose names are called, follow your squad leader!"

A captain wearing glasses walked over and said, "Company commander, shall we settle all the new recruits down first, and then have the unit assemble for a general talk?"

The new recruits had all heard about it on the way; this man must be Jiang Da, the political instructor of the Sixth Company.

Liu Guoping nodded and began to read out the names.

"Squad Leader!"

"To!"

A second-term sergeant in the first row immediately raised his hand.

"Zhang Haoyu, Zhou Meng, Ding Xiaohao, Feng Wei, the four of you go to Class One!"

"Yes!"

Immediately, a group of veteran soldiers came over to help with the luggage, and the four new recruits were then led into the dormitory building.

"Second Squad Leader!"

"To!"

. . .

As each new recruit was led away, fewer and fewer recruits remained standing on the parade ground.

Xu Ge gradually sensed something was wrong. Why hadn't he been assigned to another group yet?

After the squad leader of the eighth squad left with his men, only a few officers, a first-term sergeant, and Xu Ge, Li Dongshui, and Kaiyoumu remained on the parade ground.

Instructor Jiang Da looked at Luo Shan: "Third Platoon Leader, you can arrange these three soldiers."

Luo Shan: "Yes!"

"Holy crap! We're going to Class 9?!" Kaiyu suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui were both completely confused. What happened to Class 9?
"Niu Sanxian!"

"To!"

"come over!"

"Yes!"

Finally, the sergeant ran up to Luo Shan, grinned, and said, "Greetings, Platoon Leader!"

"Is it your turn to be the class monitor for Class 9 this week?" Luo Shan asked.

Niu Sanxian looked dejected: "There's nothing I can do, Platoon Leader. I had diarrhea during last week's competition, so I wasn't in good shape and ended up with the worst score..."

Xu Ge, listening from the side, became increasingly confused.

So the position of squad leader of the ninth squad is rotating? It sounds like everyone is unhappy about whoever loses the position.
"These three new recruits have been assigned to the ninth squad. You can take them up there," Luo Shan said.

Niu Sanxian immediately became troubled: "Platoon leader, you know our platoon's situation. The deputy platoon leader doesn't take on new recruits."

"Then go and call Squad Leader Guo down, I'll talk to him!"

"Yes!"

Niu San took off running.

Kaiyou put his luggage on the ground and looked at Luoshan in surprise: "Platoon leader, why were the three of us assigned to the ninth squad? What if the old squad leader gets angry?"

"What are you afraid of? If you lose your temper, I'll take the fall!"

Luo Shan looked at Xu Ge and Li Dongshui, "Put your luggage on the ground and rest for a bit."

"Yes!"

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui immediately put down their things and shook their sore and numb arms.

Seeing Luo Shan and Kaiyoumu whispering to each other, Xu Ge looked around at his surroundings.

This is a fairly large courtyard, and it looks like there are three or four courtyards side by side, separated by low walls.

In the neighboring courtyard, someone was shouting commands loudly; judging from the voices, it should be the 5th Company of the 2nd Battalion.

Directly in front of Xu Ge was a row of bulletin board stands, displaying numerous photos. The central one bore the large characters "Hall of Fame," and the first photo featured a chubby-faced sergeant... no, a second-class sergeant major!
Next to the photo is a line of description:
Guo Yuanshuai won first place in the all-around competition of the entire brigade for seven consecutive years from 2005 to 2011.

hiss! ! !
Seven consecutive years of being ranked first in the entire brigade! He truly deserves the title of King of Soldiers!
Looking at the profile, Xu Ge immediately knew that this Guo Yuanshuai must be the old squad leader that Du Hu and Luo Shan had mentioned. He never expected him to be such a formidable person!

Deng Deng Deng!
Footsteps sounded, and a slightly overweight sergeant with a thick sling of crutches hanging from his shoulders strode over.

"What the hell are you calling me for?" the newcomer asked Luo Shan.

Luo Shan quickly took out a pack of cigarettes, pulled one out, and handed it over: "Old squad leader, have a cigarette!"

Guo Yuanshuai reached out and blocked Luo Shan's hand that was offering him a cigarette, then very naturally took the whole pack of cigarettes from the other man's other hand.

"What's the deal with these three new recruits? I heard from Xiao Niu that they're going to be assigned to our squad?"

"Old squad leader, come on, let me light your fire first..."

Guo Yuanshuai glared and interrupted Luo Shan: "You're talking nonsense! I'm asking you what's going on with these three new recruits?"
