The twists and turns of the army road
Perhaps I was really touched by Eldest Uncle's sincerity and embarked on the path of joining the army. Originally, my parents and eldest granduncle decided to let my uncle take care of me in the army, so his subordinate Guo Tao took me to Xinjiang. He really gave me a lot of care, so I changed my original formation in Wolong District to Zhenping Formation. In order to make it convenient for Guo to take me to Ye City, I began a three-day journey.
Xi'an impression
His impression of Xi'an was always clear and vague. My college roommate Hui Zai is from Xianyang. From his mouth, I learned a few words about Xi'an, but it was not systematic.
Ever since the first emperor of Qin set his capital in Xianyang, it seemed that Xi'an and Chang' an had become the ideal place for many emperors to consolidate their hegemony. The military power of the Kanto region was strong, and the existence of the Qinling Mountains made it easy to defend and difficult to attack. It seemed that in the long river of China's history, there were traces of Xi'an everywhere. Therefore, some people said that if you wanted to see the development of China's history, go to Xi'an. It was simply a miniature of China's feudal society. Xi'an was the capital of the Western Han Dynasty and the prosperous Tang Dynasty. All countries paid tribute to Xi'an and their reputation spread far and wide, creating unprecedented glory.
So I thought of the TV series " Emperor of the Han Dynasty " I, II, III, and learned about Xi'an's scale claws from the side. The magical and mysterious city was once very popular, creating one beautiful myth after another in the history of China. Now, it had embarked on the road of vicissitudes. Although the center of the Western Development was still in Xi'an, it was no longer one of the top ten charming cities in China. Therefore, I didn't think much of what Hui Zai said about Xi'an. Moreover, many of my high school classmates were studying in Xi'an, so I was even less interested in Xi'an. It's just that I have a slight impression of Xi'an Northwest University of Political Science and Law, Xi'an Jiao Tong University, and Xi'an University of Post and Television, because some of my classmates have been gilded there. These are my first impressions of Xi'an.
This time, he could get closer to the city by passing through Xi'an. It takes about 11 hours to get to Xi'an by train. If we take the Ningxi railway, of course, it will go straight to Xi'an, and the time will be shorter. I didn't know where they stopped. It was already completely dark, so it was difficult to determine the direction. I followed Company Commander Guo to a place. I took the military's Liberation truck. It was bumpy. It was said that we arrived at a university of finance and economics in Xi'an. The dilapidated school building was far from the university I imagined. We took off our backpacks and waited for orders. The company commander announced the discipline and divided them into groups to ensure that the meals were in order.
Due to Company Commander Guo's care (my uncle had already hinted to him about this), I joined the ranks of Zhenping's fellow townsmen. Six people in a shift. After making the bed, Company Commander Guo taught us how to fold the quilt and pack our bags. He also did boarding mobilization, saying that we might go to Xi'an International Airport in the early hours of the morning to take a flight to Kashi. My comrades had no choice but to reluctantly part with what they loved and left some of the so-called prohibited items in this city, a university dormitory on the outskirts of Xi'an. I also weighed it again and again and threw away some fruits and cigarettes that I brought from home (I don't smoke, but in order to coordinate with my fellow countrymen, I also prepared some).
When we finished eating, it was already past 9 o'clock. We all turned off the lights and went to rest. In a daze, someone woke us up. We didn't know what was going on. Some of our comrades had watches. When they saw that it was midnight, they couldn't help but curse. They didn't know what trouble they had caused in their lives to endure such torture. After gathering, they once again got on the big truck of Xi'an. With the police car leading the way, they naturally drove very fast. More than 30 people were squeezed into a car, and their backpacks were piled up. The air was a little stuffy. Fortunately, everyone was young, so there were naturally many topics to talk about to pass the time.
We didn't know when the sky started to brighten. We pulled open the curtains and looked outside. We saw the city in our dreams. The ancient city walls and the memories of history began to collide. The prosperous Chang 'an, the three thousand beauties, and the palace coup were all gone. The palaces had all turned to dust. Only the modern people who had been washed away by life were still wandering around the streets. The fast-paced life made people seem to forget that this was still a city with a very cultural content. The ancient city walls, mottled characters, bell tower, and Big Wild Goose Pagoda. But we finally surrendered to modern life. How could we be busy!
The city wall of Xi'an gradually blurred in my vision. Our motorcade began to drive towards the outer city of Xi'an. Although there were police cars leading the way, the road was unimpeded. It took nearly 50 minutes. I heard that the outer city of Xi'an was more than 20 kilometers, which was only one-eighth of the ancient Chang' an City. It showed the prosperity and strength of the ancient Chang 'an City. A ride on the red dust, the concubine smiled, and the three thousand beauties were all moved. A fast horse could only exchange for the short-term happiness of Yang Guifei. How could the Tang Dynasty's grand event withstand the torture? In the end, it was destroyed in the An Lushan Rebellion. Who was the one who wrote the Song of Everlasting Regret? This love was endless, and the heavens were willing to be lovebirds. The truck entered Xi'an International Airport on the outer ring road. We began the boarding exercise. Soon I would soar in the sky. I knew that I was leaving the ancient city of Xi'an, adding an incomplete end to my life.
First boarding
I've taken all kinds of transportation, but perhaps my first boarding was the most unique. There is no free lunch in this world. My comrades and I were muddle-headed as we embarked on the path of joining the army. We also took a free flight to experience the high efficiency and fast pace brought by the information age.
When I passed the security check, I felt like I was carrying a small rabbit in my chest, afraid to discover my little secret. The books in my backpack were the most. I could never let go of them and could not put them down. They would become an important part of my life and accompany me through many long nights.
The most unforgettable moment was when the plane took off. As the plane slowly rose, a feeling of discomfort welled up in his heart. He had a headache and his ears were ringing. It was novel and challenging. When the scenery outside the window changed rapidly, I gradually found the feeling. I shouted in my heart that I had already flown into the sky. Sun Wukong was just so-so. It seemed that riding the clouds was not the patent of the gods.
The air stewardess started to serve drinks. I opened the small table in front of my seat. Not bad, there were newspapers, napkins, and drinking cups. Many of my comrades entered the Grand View Garden like me, but they couldn't get enough of the air stewardess. I was suspected of being a pervert. I also abandoned my shyness and handed over a cup of water. I asked for a cup of coffee. The lingering aftertaste made me feel as if I had returned to my university days.
The enthusiasm of my comrades did not diminish, as if they would never believe that there was a free drink in the world. Therefore, the cute and moving air stewardess had no choice but to push the drinks cart around. I also took the opportunity to take advantage of it and asked for three cups of coffee. Even when I was at my most depressed time in college, I could drink a cup of coffee and my worries would be gone. I was afraid that the coffee would numb my nerves and stimulate my brain.
We were all enjoying the joy of flying like happy deer. We enjoyed the wonderful bird's eye view from the sky. The clouds were like flowers that could be picked up by reaching out. The ground was an endless desert, red patches. From this angle, it was indeed very different from the actual desert. It was a different feeling in our hearts. The plane flew steadily towards its destination, Kashi.
I suddenly felt that the plane was about to land. Yes, the plane landed at Kashi Airport like a heavy bird. Looking around, the tall white poplars soared into the sky. This was also the difference between the northwest poplar trees and the inland poplar trees. There was a lack of water here, and every tree had to constantly compete. The soaring sky increased the rugged and magnificent land of the northwest. This was exactly what I had long dreamed of-stepping on the Gobi road. If I only stayed at the height of fantasy, it would lose its inherent meaning. When my dream and reality collided, I was moved by reality.
embark on a new journey
In my impression, Kashi was the end and also the starting point. Due to a sudden order from my superior, my dream of going to Shache was shattered. I followed my fellow countrymen from Zhenping to a certain regiment, but instead, I went to a city farther away-Wada City, the westernmost part of China. Perhaps the heavens gave me a chance to train. I had hoped that my uncle would take care of me, but it was a fluke that I failed again. It seemed that I was destined to travel alone with my sword. I really needed a sky that belonged to me, far away from my uncle's line of sight, far away from the shelter under the wings of my elders. I would soar freely in the sky and fight against the wind and rain. Company Commander Guo shook his head helplessly. He left with the soldiers from Wolong District, and I became the only one who went to Wolong District in Hetian. This was life.
It was getting late when we set out from Kashi, so we stayed the night in Shule, not far from Kashi. I didn't have a deep impression of this regiment, but I vaguely remembered the ancient poplar trees of the regiment. It was enough to show that the regiment had a long history. From one side, it reflected that this was a team that did a good job in greenery.
I originally thought that my goal would be very close if I walked to the hot land of Kashi, so I left the military city-Kashi. I really forgot the first stop I passed. Perhaps I really forgot the road on the road. My comrades and I were overwhelmed by happiness and novelty. We saw the words on the bus: If you don't go to Hetian, you won't know the ancient wonders of Xinjiang. The mysterious city, where I will rewrite my life.
Crossing the desert (Taklamakan Desert) highway, he did not see the legendary yellow sand everywhere. He only seemed to see the mountains in the distance. The snow was very thick. He did not know if it was the snow from Kunlun or Tianshan. The legendary Tianshan Snow Lotus grew there. Perhaps it was due to the cold winter weather that there wasn't much wind and sand, but the scenery along the way kept changing. Just as I left Kashi, there was a thick layer of snow on the road. When I reached the edge of the desert, this magical elf actually disappeared. Therefore, I missed this naughty elf so much that it actually provoked my interest.
There were very few people on the desert road that spanned hundreds of miles. Occasionally, we would see a village with very few residents. Sometimes, we would pass by a market. You must pay attention to your words and deeds and never have any conflicts with your fellow countrymen. Because of the language barrier, many of our fellow villagers in the southern border can only speak Uighur. We are very excited. In the sparsely populated Xinjiang, I have once again witnessed your charm.
Life as a Quasi-Soldier Before Enlisting
On the afternoon of December 4th, 2003, we became the first batch of Nanyang soldiers to arrive in the team (to be exact, we were from Zhenping, and I was an exception). Joy welled up in our hearts. The officer divided us into two groups: Most of them are from Nanyang and Danyang, and I am one of them. The people who received us were two old veterans. Later on, I found out that one of them was Gao XX, and the other one had forgotten. I knew nothing about the army. Could they be the legendary volunteers? They had black faces, the standard red of the plateau, and very rough skin. Not long after, there would be traces of these plateau soldiers on my face, and every time I mentioned them, I would always talk about them.
That night, we stayed in the club to enjoy ourselves. Life in the army might not be bad. We could even watch TV. We chatted in the club until late at night. The tall guy started introducing himself. Of course, I found another capital to show off. Gao XX. His name had some connection with Yue Fei. Not long ago, I just happened to watch "The Complete Biography of Yue Fei". It was still fresh in my memory. The short monitor was very humorous. Perhaps it was because I was too familiar with him that I forgot his name.
The first confrontation with the recruit squad leader
Since we were the first batch of recruits to join the team, we naturally had to wait for the other comrades to arrive. Once, Li Changgeng and I came to a certain class to play. Suddenly, we saw a more capable veteran. Li Changgeng was a lively and cheerful person. He was more free and easy than me, so he took the initiative to greet the veteran. I didn't expect him to play poker with an old soldier. I knew how to play poker, but I didn't dare to be so open. Before I left, my eldest granduncle warned me," He had to be a humble person and talk less and do more. It was easy to be exposed if he fought with the veterans as soon as he arrived. The first time he exposed himself, it would be easy for the enemy to have something on him. But one day, when I finally became a veteran, I was never used to putting on airs in front of the new recruits. We couldn't be harsh on others because everyone had their own experiences that were rarely known. This was actually the first time I met the recruit squad leader. Perhaps this was the legendary fate. When you lose an opportunity, you will get a complete world. Never bow to the harsh environment and unfortunate circumstances.
(The life of the new recruits has officially begun. I miss those days.)
