Chapter 60 Military Training
In a blink of an eye, it was August 26th and the military training officially began.
I don’t know if it’s because there are too few students in the Computer Science Department, but they weren’t divided into classes and all of them were asked to stand in a large square.
The opening ceremony had already been held in the morning. After the instructors from other departments had given their speeches, they started to proceed to the next step, but the instructor from their department had not arrived yet.
As the sun gradually rose, students from other departments began to march around the campus under the guidance of instructors.
He Shu and the others stood stupidly on the uncovered playground until the sun burned directly above their heads.
Because there was a ceremony in the morning, I wore all the military training camouflage suits issued by the school.
At this moment under the scorching sun, it was like being put into a sealed bag, and it was soaked inside.
Some girls and weak people could not stand anymore. Since there were no instructors or teachers watching them, they took off their coats, spread them on the ground and sat on them.
One person took the lead, and the others followed suit when they saw that there was nothing else to do, and soon a large group of people were sitting down.
He Shuye's legs were shaking and sweat was pouring down his back, but he felt that it was impossible for the school to have forgotten about them.
Maybe this was a test, so I gritted my teeth and persevered.
Deng Hongyuan also has good endurance. He stands very straight and looks like a soldier in camouflage uniform.
Feng Haoxiang stood in front of He Shu. He turned his head and asked He Shu, "Brother Shu, can we sit for a while? My feet are so sore. Look, my second brother has already sat down."
He Shu looked to the side and saw that Li Mu had indeed taken off his coat and was sitting on the ground, fanning himself with his hat .
His long hair was tied into a ponytail, hanging wetly on his neck.
He Shu whispered, "Stand for a while and see what happens."
Of the 14 girls who had divided into a small group, only Ji Wanying was left standing.
At noon, it was time for lunch. Some classes in other departments had already been disbanded, and students were walking to the cafeteria in small groups, but no one cared about He Shu and his friends.
Some people started to get annoyed and wanted to go ask the teacher.
For students like them who have just graduated from high school and have not yet adapted to college life, they always think of looking for teachers whenever they have problems.
Just then, two green tarpaulin troop carriers drove over.
We drove to the front of their formation and two men in camouflage uniforms jumped out of the first car.
One of them was about forty or fifty years old, about 1.8 meters tall, with eyes like lightning and the corners of his tightly pursed mouth slightly turned down.
There was a "川" mark in the middle of his eyebrows, the brim of his hat blocked the sunlight, and the pair of eyes hidden in the shadows looked very sharp.
He Shu felt that the look this person just gave him was like a knife .
Maybe this is the aura of the soldiers? I heard that those who gave them military training were at least platoon leaders in various units.
The other one was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old and looked much more normal.
He Shu and the others realized that this might be their instructor.
"Everyone, stand at attention!"
The younger instructors stood still and shouted slogans loudly.
The students sitting on the ground got up reluctantly, put on their hats, and brushed the dust off their butts.
"Students who were sitting on the ground just now, get out of line!"
As soon as this sentence was shouted, the students knew they were in trouble.
Feng Haoxiang secretly put his hand behind his back and gave a thumbs up. Brother Shu was indeed foresighted. Those who were sitting there might be punished.
After those students stepped out of the line, the young instructor actually ordered them to disperse and asked them to wait for notice in the afternoon as they would be arranged to go to other departments for military training.
This command confused all the students, whether they were sitting or not.
Li Mu was holding his coat and glanced at Deng Hongyuan, He Shu and the others before leaving, giving them a look that told them to wish them well.
Once those students left, there were only 43 people left on the playground, and Ji Wanying was the only girl among them.
"stand at attention!"
"At ease!"
After shouting two commands and readjusting the formation, the middle-aged instructor finally took two steps forward with a loud voice.
"My name is Qi Zhijun, and from now on, I will be your instructor. This is Instructor Yu. Instructor Yu and I will lead you in the next 21 days of military training in the off-campus troops."
This sentence made the remaining students exclaim in surprise. Why did they have to go to the army when others were still in school?
Instructor Qi waited for them to finish their discussion before continuing with a stern face.
"The military training of the Department of Electronic Computer Science is different from that of other departments."
"Standing in the morning is a preliminary test for you, but!"
"The next training will be ten times, a hundred times harder... and!"
He likes to speak in a roundabout way and in broken sentences. He shouts out something and there is definitely another sentence after it, but he doesn't say it right away.
But making these students look at him under the scorching sun was simply a torture.
"Besides, once you join the army, you are no longer students, but soldiers!"
"The most basic requirement for a soldier is to strictly follow military orders."
" I didn't tell you to speak, no one can speak. I didn't tell you to move, even if I stab you with a knife, you have to stand straight!"
"Report!" Deng Hongyuan shouted loudly.
Qi Zhijun glanced over and said, "Speak."
"Is the whole department going, or just us?"
"Aren't my words clear enough? You have passed the primary test. Those who are lax and undisciplined are not qualified to go."
After saying this, most of the remaining students showed expressions of regret.
If they had known this, they would have sat down too. Who wants to go to the army and be trained?
Qi Zhijun saw their expressions and snorted coldly: "Don't think that anyone can go. If you don't want to go, you can leave the team and eat now."
If you don't want to go, you don't have to go? It's just military training, it won't affect your grades, and this instructor doesn't look easy to get along with...
Someone thought about it and shouted to report that he wanted to withdraw, and Instructor Qi waved his hand happily.
Just like that, one after another, only 27 people were left, including the only remaining girl, Ji Wanying.
But what He Shu didn't expect was that Deng Hongyuan actually followed him and even turned back to call He Shu and Feng Haoxiang to go together.
But He Shu didn't move. Feng Haoxiang looked at Deng Hongyuan, then looked back at He Shu, and finally chose to stay with He Shu.
"This is your last chance to quit. Once you get to the army, even if you cry and scream, we won't let you back until the training is over."
He Shu frowned slightly, he was a little hesitant.
The benefit of military training is to train their willpower, but is it necessary to be so serious?
Moreover, if it was the same for all freshmen in the school, there would be no problem, but it is very intriguing that it is only in their department.
"Report!" He Shu shouted.
Instructor Qi's eyes swept over and said, "Speak!"
"Will this military training affect the school assessment results?"
"Humph." Instructor Qi snorted, "You want to ask if there are any benefits to participating, right?"
The eyes of the other twenty or so students lit up when they heard this. If it could get extra points or something, they would definitely participate no matter how difficult it was.
"To tell you the truth, there are definitely benefits."
Instructor Qi gave an affirmative answer, but He Shu saw that he had a fake smile on his face.
I felt that it was definitely not as simple as he said.
