After breakfast on the weekend, Zhang Hui went to the bathhouse to clean himself up and returned to his dormitory to tidy up his belongings. He put on a military uniform that was different from his usual training clothes and packed his backpack and water bottle.
He was also carrying a large backpack filled with various snacks, as well as a small amount of braised meat, cigarettes, and alcohol.
Give the snacks and braised meat to Xu Sanduo, and the cigarettes and alcohol to the Fifth Squad later, hoping that they won't make things too difficult for Xu Sanduo, this blockhead, like in the original story.
Most importantly, his backpack also contained some training plans that he had secretly written down over the past few days. Xu Sanduo, that blockhead, probably still had the training subjects he learned in basic training, like lining up and marching in formation. That won't do.
If he is indeed transferred to the Steel Seventh Company by the regimental commander, he will definitely be assigned to Shi Jin's squad. If he is not given some physical training beforehand, he will definitely drag the Third Squad down in the first few weeks.
Even with my and Shi Jin's protection, we can't prevent others from rejecting us. We need to cut some equipment or training that we don't have the resources for, but at least we need to get this silly kid up and running in terms of basic physical fitness first.
As long as the goals are clearly set, he should be able to make some progress in physical training such as weighted cross-country running, sit-ups, and push-ups.
Lost in thought, Zhang Hui soon walked out of the Seventh Steel Company. He had already found out the location of the Fifth Platoon of the Third Company a few days earlier. After finding the right direction, he began to run forward.
Not running isn't an option either; it takes almost four hours to drive from the Seventh Steel Company to the Fifth Platoon of the Third Company. Even if he could hitch a ride along the way, it wouldn't necessarily shorten the journey by much; it would be better for him to start running from the beginning.
Fortunately, after entering the training ground, he would occasionally encounter some armored vehicles carrying out training. He was lucky enough to meet an experienced sergeant who was willing to take him along and gave him a ride halfway.
By the time he saw the guard post of the Fifth Squad from afar, it was already past lunchtime.
Before coming here, Zhang Hui had no idea about the actual situation of the Fifth Platoon of the Third Company. He just thought that Xu Sanduo would change a useless but excellent platoon leader, make a group of old hands uncomfortable, and change many things here.
Although he tried his best to help Xu Sanduo, to be honest, the few months they spent together in the recruit training camp didn't make him like Xu Sanduo that much.
However, knowing that he could hold the Fifth Squad and repair a road all by himself, he still admired Xu Sanduo quite a bit.
Because if Zhang Hui were to come to this place, he might gradually be assimilated, lose his fighting spirit, and end up retiring and going home after his two-year military service.
Watching the wind howl in the distance, whipping up dust from the ground, Zhang Hui decided to help Xu Sanduo this time, at least to win over the heart of the fifth squad leader to Xu Sanduo's side.
Zhang Hui climbed the steps and arrived at the empty guard post. He saw a person squatting on the ground, as if picking something up. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Xu Sanduo, who had started road repairs.
This made Zhang Hui excitedly shout, "Xu Sanduo!~ Xu Sanduo!~"
"Hey~~ Brother Cheng Cai!" Xu Sanduo heard a familiar voice, turned around and saw Cheng Cai standing next to the guard post, looking at him with a smile, looking travel-worn.
"Why are you here? Did you come to see me? How have you been?" Xu Sanduo was so excited to see Cheng Cai, who had joined the army with him from their hometown, after more than three months. His accent had even turned into a dialect.
"I came here specifically to see you. I've been doing very well lately. How about you?" Zhang Hui asked Xu Sanduo as well.
"I'm doing well too. We're small in number but have a lot of space. Our squad leader, Lao Ma, is really good to me, and he even gave me my first order: to build this road." Xu Sanduo spoke with obvious joy, and continued to Zhang Hui, "Hehe! I feel like my life is really meaningful now!"
Zhang Hui felt that if he hadn't seen him grinning so happily, he wouldn't have thought that what he said was meant to be boastful.
[The plot has changed due to the host's actions; 3 unallocated points will be awarded as a reward!]
Just after Zhang Hui received the system reward, four people came out of the two-story building next door. He knew that these were all the people from the Fifth Platoon of the Third Company who were originally stationed there. They had come to check the situation after hearing the commotion.
Xu Sanduo also saw the group approaching and introduced them to Zhang Hui with a smile, "The one in front is our squad leader, Lao Ma; the tall one behind is Li Meng; the slightly chubby one behind is Lao Wei; and the last one is Xue Lin."
"Snap!" After listening to Xu Sanduo's introduction, just as Lao Ma walked up to him, Zhang Hui saluted and said, "Hello, Squad Leader Ma. I am Cheng Cai, a soldier from the 7th Company, 3rd Battalion, 702nd Regiment. I am also Xu Sanduo's fellow villager. I came here specifically to see him."
"Hello, hello!" Old Ma returned the greeting politely.
Then he noticed the scrutinizing looks from the three people behind him. Not wanting to waste time, Zhang Hui said he wanted to talk to Xu Sanduo alone and would visit them later.
Old Ma very considerately pulled them away, leaving only Xu Sanduo and Zhang Hui behind.
Seeing Xu Sanduo still grinning, she said to him somewhat forcefully, "Sanduo, I took leave specifically to see you this time. Time is tight and the task is heavy, so just listen to what I have to say."
"I was assigned to the Steel Seventh Company. The company commander was the same company commander Gao from the recruit training company. Moreover, he was under the command of Squad Leader Shi Jin, who recruited us. Wu Liuyi was the deputy squad leader."
"These past three months in the company have been very fulfilling, and of course, our training volume has been particularly high. This time, I got the best score in the whole company in shooting training, so I asked Squad Leader Shi for leave to come and see you."
"I know that the Fifth Platoon of the Third Company where you are is a tough place. When I was asking around, I heard people say that this place is sparsely populated and that few people come to visit you for a long time."
"I don't want you to give up training after you join the company, so I brought you some training manuals that I've compiled. You'd better follow the instructions in them."
"Sanduo, although we're assigned to different companies, we have one thing in common: we're all soldiers. And soldiers need to have basic physical fitness, so you absolutely cannot lower your standards, understand?"
As Zhang Hui spoke, he stuffed the notebook from his backpack into Xu Sanduo's hand. Xu Sanduo still had that happy expression, without any impatience, his face full of joy.
Watching Zhang Hui take things out, Xu Sanduo also spoke his mind, "I know, Li Meng said on my first day here that glory lies in the ordinary, and hardship lies in the long journey. I've been doing those training exercises the whole time!"
Seeing his condition, Zhang Hui was worried that Xu Sanduo's training would go astray, so he asked him to go inside and get paper and pen, and then found a place under the guard post to talk to him while he wrote it down.
Everything was clearly defined for him, from what time he would get up in the morning to what time he would go to bed at night. He was also instructed to set aside specific time each day for road repairs, in case the butterfly effect resulted in the road being lost.
No matter what, after Xu Sanduo was transferred to the Steel Seventh Company, I'll have more opportunities, won't I?
Then he continued to instruct Xu Sanduo on the specific number of sit-ups and push-ups to do each day, the time limit for the five-kilometer cross-country run, and how much weight to carry during the final run to meet the requirements, etc.
Zhang Hui explained everything in detail, and then made Xu Sanduo promise that he would definitely complete it. If it rained or there was another mission, the task could be changed temporarily or made up later.
His goal was to ensure that Xu Sanduo's physical fitness didn't fall too far behind when he was in the Fifth Platoon of the Third Company. As for training with infantry fighting vehicles and other equipment, there was nothing he could do for now; he could only wait until he had the opportunity to increase the intensity of training for Xu Sanduo in the future.
After explaining everything to Xu Sanduo in detail, she took out the snacks and braised meat she had brought for him from her backpack and told him that they were for him to satisfy his cravings and replenish his nutrition.
Seeing Xu Sanduo nod in agreement, Zhang Hui became even more determined. He was determined to inspire Xu Sanduo and help him change.
