Chapter 140: Separation is for a better meeting
"get high!"
"You are mine, little apple, I can never love you enough~"
In the evening, the cafeteria was bustling with activity.
A speaker, a microphone, and a set of song-ordering equipment make up a simple karaoke system.
Two new recruits were holding microphones and passionately singing this year's hottest hit single "Little Apple".
Because of its cheerful rhythm and catchy lyrics, this song became the leader in the square dance song world for a long time.
Amidst the noisy singing, the crisp clinking of wine bottles continued to ring out, and the entire cafeteria was filled with laughter.
Because I will be leaving the company tomorrow morning, today's farewell banquet is particularly sumptuous.
Not only is beer available, but there are also many delicious foods on the table that you can't usually find.
For example, roasted beef tendon, grilled lamb chops, fried prawns, garlic oysters, etc.
"Come on, let's raise our glasses together and toast to our dearest squad leader. Thank you for your hard work over the past three months!"
Li Jiasheng acted like a person who was well-mannered, and he took the initiative to make a proposal, just like the school parents did at a dinner party.
"Yes, yes, yes, cheers to the squad leader, cheers to the squad leader!"
"Thank you for your hard work, squad leader!"
The sound of wine bottles clinking could be heard.
A group of old men didn't even use cups, they just drank directly from the bottle.
After taking a big gulp, everyone wiped their mouths with a laugh.
"Let me say this." Zhao Pengfei raised the bottle: "Next, we should toast Qin Feng."
"Yes, yes, we should toast to the class vice-chairman!"
"Squad leader, you don't know how hard the deputy squad leader has worked these days. Not only has he trained us, but he has also covered us with blankets at night!"
"Captain, it's a good thing you're back, otherwise we would have thought the deputy was planning to 'usurp the throne.'"
"Hahahaha, you guys..."
Everyone laughed and Qin Feng touched it and did the same, taking a big gulp.
"Okay, stop drinking, eat more food!"
Zhao Pengfei asked everyone to eat more vegetables and not just drink.
Drinking too much beer will make you bloated, so eating enough is the most important thing.
We are all family, so no one is polite.
If there are some dishes that are out of reach, just stand up and grab them with your hands.
It's the last day, and no one will say anything about discipline.
The main purpose of this farewell banquet is relaxation and happiness.
It also brings a perfect end to the recruit company.
"The Little Apples from Class 3 have finished singing, and now it's our class's turn. Who among you wants to go up and sing two songs?"
"I'll do it, I'll do it, I'm a microphone master outside!"
Li Jiasheng volunteered to stand up.
He is really good at livening up the atmosphere.
After all, outside, he is known as the little prince of nightclubs.
But he didn't go up alone, but pulled Qi Meng up with him.
Watching Li Jiasheng and Qi Meng gathered together, choosing songs around the song-ordering device.
Everyone was speculating whether they were planning to get dimples and sing love songs together.
"Here it comes, here it comes!" Li Jiasheng pointed to the sky with one hand and to the ground with the other, posing in a very pretentious manner.
"I would like to dedicate a song called 'Friends' Wine' to everyone. I wish all my comrades a bright future and great achievements!"
Afterwards, he and Qi Meng began to sing, clapping their hands to keep the beat and lowering their voices.
"Yesterday is gone forever, oh yeah, happy, more expensive than anything..."
"Come on, friends who can sing, let's sing together!"
"... Quickly fill up the glass, drink it up and sing loudly, good friends, good friends, what a joyful night this evening..."
The two of them sang enthusiastically and did not forget to interact with the audience below.
From time to time, Li Jiasheng would choose a lucky audience member and hand the microphone to them.
Soon, the atmosphere on the scene was completely aroused.
As a popular KTV song, this song "Friends' Wine" is also very popular.
And the song is about friendship between friends, so it fits the atmosphere of the scene better.
Those who can sing in the cafeteria sing along, and those who can't sing can hum a few lines along.
Even Ge Zhiyong and Bi Yuan hugged each other and waved their hands continuously.
Qin Feng sat below, clapping and keeping the beat, acting as the perfect atmosphere group.
I have to say that this kid Li Jiasheng is quite good at creating an atmosphere.
It's obvious that he spends a lot of money in bars, and he might even become a gold card member of Shang K.
At this time, Zhao Pengfei patted Qin Feng twice and then walked out of the cafeteria.
Qin Feng looked back and immediately followed.
When I got outside, I closed the cafeteria door behind me.
All the noise and bustle seemed to be isolated in an instant.
This sudden silence is like slamming on the brakes, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
pat.
Zhao Pengfei lit a cigarette.
Seeing him puffing away smoke with such enjoyment, Qin Feng immediately frowned.
"Has the doctor given you the OK to smoke?"
"The doctor didn't say I can't smoke, did he?"
Zhao Pengfei glanced at him and grinned.
Qin Feng had no choice. After all, he had just drunk the beer, so a sip or two wouldn't make a difference.
"I've been away for these days, thanks to you."
"Squad leader, you said all these things in the corridor before."
"Thank you again then."
Zhao Pengfei smoked a cigarette and looked up at the bright moon in the sky: "If we can save our company, I will continue to stay. If not, I will leave."
Qin Feng said nothing.
Earlier, the squad leader called him to the corridor to talk.
He then realized that Zhao Pengfei's motor nerve damage was beginning to show signs of improvement.
Although I still have muscle spasms and can't hold things from time to time, it is much better than before.
In addition, Yuan Feng had already told Zhao Pengfei about the incident when he went to pick him up.
It was for this reason that prompted Zhao Pengfei to return to the army immediately.
As a member of the reconnaissance company, he cannot retreat at this time, let alone be a deserter at this critical juncture.
He would try his best and fight with his troops until the last moment.
"Qin Feng, I want to ask you to do me a favor."
"Well, you said."
Zhao Pengfei took his last puff and said seriously, "I'd like to ask you to supervise my rehabilitation training in addition to training."
Qin Feng pointed at himself with some doubt: "Let me supervise you?"
"Yes." Zhao Pengfei nodded. "People are lazy. If there is no one to supervise them, their minds will definitely become lazy."
"At this time, I need someone to supervise me so that I can speed up my recovery."
"Three months from now, during the Spring Thunder exercise, our company must deliver a satisfactory performance, otherwise we may face direct disbanding."
"So, I have to recover to my previous level of 70% or 80% during this period of time. Even if I only have 60% strength, I can still play a role!"
Qin Feng could feel Zhao Pengfei's determination.
He stretched out his fist towards the squad leader, and Zhao Pengfei smiled knowingly.
When the two fists collided, the roles of the two people were swapped.
In the past, I took you to train.
But now, it's your turn to help me train.
Under the night sky, the two chatted for a while.
There are matters related to life, training, and some arrangements after joining the company.
But when the two finished chatting and returned to the cafeteria, they were completely stunned.
At the front, Li Jiasheng, Qi Meng, Chen Sanxi and others were dancing Little Swan with Ge Zhiyong and Bi Yuan arm in arm.
Accompanied by lively music, a group of people moved left and right.
Some of the new recruits below were whistling, some were clapping their hands on the table and cheering, and some simply joined in.
In the sea of lively and joyful cheer, there is no distinction between new recruits and old soldiers, nor are there any superiors.
There are only a group of young men who have dreams, leave their homeland, and are determined to serve their country.
And they have a common name, Yan State soldiers.
......
At around nine o'clock in the evening, after the hustle and bustle of the cafeteria, there were only leftovers on the table and empty bottles on the floor.
The people in the kitchen took brooms and rags and carefully cleaned the battlefield and cleared up the mess.
All the new recruits from each class have returned to the dormitory, washed up early and went to bed, ready to wait for lights out.
Many people in Class 4 blushed like Guan Yu.
There were also some people who couldn't hold their liquor and were vomiting while holding basins.
Li Jiasheng and Qi Meng had so much fun that night that their faces were twitching from laughing.
The two of them lay on the bed with their arms and legs spread out, chatting happily about random things.
"Hey, Lao Qi, what unit do you think I will be assigned to?"
"As for you, I think the art troupe is more suitable for you. You like singing and dancing, hahahaha!"
"Get lost! I told you you were strong enough to be a logistics worker, feeding pigs and carrying manure!"
Li Jiasheng looked at the bed board above his head with a dizzy head and said with emotion.
"Hey, it would be great if I could go to the Sharpshooter Company 4. The recruit company only has five bullets in total, and it's too uncomfortable to shoot."
"I joined the army just for that burst of bullets, just to be able to shoot..."
The others also seemed to open up and talk about the units and positions they wanted to join.
Some said they wanted to drive a tank.
Some said they wanted to learn how to drive a car.
Others are interested in artillery, saying that this thick and large gun barrel is the ultimate romance for men.
Another one wanted to join the motorized infantry company, saying that he had loved riding motorcycles since he was a child.
Qin Feng laughed heartily after hearing this: "Then I wish you success. Not only can you ride a motorcycle there, you can also run while carrying it."
"Hey, class vice-chairman, I'll lend you my blessing."
Although smartphones became popular in 14, information did not explode.
Therefore, many people do not know that motorized infantry companies cannot fight on motorcycles.
Instead, the soldiers of this unit are required to run as fast as a motorcycle.
Qin Feng didn't want to break the boy's beautiful fantasy. When he really got that opportunity, he would experience it himself and know the answer.
"You guys think, after we get off the ship, will we still be able to see each other again?"
At this time, Chen Sanxi suddenly asked the question in his mind.
Just this one sentence brought the originally joyful atmosphere to an abrupt end.
The lights were on in the dormitory, but it suddenly became quiet.
As if they had agreed on this beforehand, everyone fell silent.
Three months really passed by in the blink of an eye.
In fact, everyone knew that this day would come, and they also knew that the fate in the recruit company was just a fleeting romance.
Even though we had prepared ourselves mentally, when we were about to separate, we were still filled with sadness and reluctance.
"How come this day comes so quickly?"
Li Jiasheng buried his head in the quilt, but the sound that came out had turned into crying.
The new recruits who had been making the most noise during the meal were also the first to cry.
Even Qi Meng, a tough guy like him, felt his eyes getting hot and tears kept flowing down his face.
Because everyone knows that after we separate tomorrow, it will be basically difficult to see each other again.
Although they are all in the same regiment, the companies are not actually adjacent to each other.
Those who have watched Soldiers Assault should have a deep impression of this.
Xu Sanduo was assigned to the fifth squad of the grassland of the Red Third Company at that time, so the car drove a long way.
Every time I wanted to go back to the group, I had to walk a long way or take a tractor from a fellow villager.
The thought of never seeing each other again makes everyone feel so sad.
The more noisy and joyful it was in the cafeteria before, the stronger the backlash is now.
For a mobile red flag, they competed with other classes in a battle of wits and courage.
In order to win the three kilometers, everyone worked together to help Qin Feng complete the lap tactics.
They also shaved their heads bald after learning that Qin Feng was burned.
When encountering danger, the squad leader and Qin Feng would step forward and use their lives to divert the enemy, giving them a chance to escape.
This kind of comradeship may never be found again in this life once you leave the recruit company.
They are not only brothers, but also comrades-in-arms who have shared life and death together.
"All good things must come to an end," Zhao Pengfei consoled her, "my former squad leader once said something to me."
"Every separation is for a better meeting."
"As long as everyone works hard and keeps moving forward, we will eventually meet at the same point."
That night, Zhao Pengfei spoke a lot and spoke very thoroughly.
Everyone knows this and wants to exercise restraint.
But we forget that humans are emotional animals.
More often than not, the mind cannot control emotions.
In fact, it was not just Class 4, many recruits from other classes were crying as well.
No matter how cruel the squad leaders are or how they abuse them.
But when it really comes to the time to part, most people are still reluctant to let go.
The moon is very round tonight and the night is beautiful, but many people are suffering from insomnia.
They want time to go slower and want to keep their eyes open all the time. Wouldn’t that way the sky never get brighter and people won’t have to walk anymore?
