Ever since Zhou Weiguo announced the recruitment, the 101st Division had set up recruitment points in Qingyuan, Laiyang, Yuezhou, and some of the larger places below.
Those who didn't go during the previous recruitment, upon hearing that the 101st Division was recruiting again, hurriedly ran towards the recruitment point.
One had to know that the 101st Division was now famous throughout the country. It was a great victory to wipe out an entire exploration team with just one division!
In Shandong, especially in Laiyang, Qingyuan, and Yuezhou, the villagers were proud that their children could join the 101st Division!
The pay was high, the treatment was good, and most importantly, they were good at fighting the devils. Moreover, when they were in battle, their officers were the first to fight. They never treated their soldiers as outsiders!
Where could one find such a good officer? Then why didn't they send him to the army? Abandoned at home?
What was that? Did you say that soldiers die easily?
It was funny. Right now, there were wars all over the country, and there were dead people everywhere. Who knew if there would be another war one day? If a cannonball exploded, there would be no bones left. They wouldn't even know how they died.
After becoming a soldier, there would be a pension for those who died in battle. It was said that the amount of the pension was half a year's salary.
It was frighteningly high!
Therefore, when they heard that the 101st Division was recruiting soldiers again, those who had a few boys at home were sent to join the army. Those who did not want to go in the past had to go now!
Wang Shulin and Wang Shumu were a pair of brothers. In fact, there were seven of them. Wang Shulin and Wang Shumu were the eldest and second. Usually, because there were many brothers in the family, they had always been poor. After all, there were many people in the family and little land. Everyone was waiting to eat. His youngest sister was only three years old. Because she did not have enough to eat, the little sister was very thin and her face was sallow.
However, their little sister was sensible and never made a fuss. This made Wang Shulin's heart ache. The last time the 101st division recruited soldiers, he did not dare to miss that opportunity. Later, he heard that the young man from the same village, Li Youcai, who was a very good friend of his, secretly ran to join the army. As a result, his mother kept crying and dying.
At that time, Wang Shulin was glad that he didn't go. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have come back.
However, this time, he heard that Li Youcai had become an official and had dozens of soldiers under him. Now, his monthly salary was fifteen yuan. He often sent some cotton clothes, quilts, shoes, and cloth to his family.
Li Youcai had only been in the army for a few months, but his family had changed a lot. The mud house had been renovated into a brick house. He heard that his mother was preparing to find a wife for him.
When they heard that Li Youcai was looking for a wife, matchmakers from all over the country came to introduce him. It was said that there was even a daughter of a shopkeeper who opened a shop in the county town who also liked Li Youcai!
This made Wang Shulin envious. In the past, Li Youcai's family didn't even have the money to marry a wife!
And now, it had only been a few months!
This morning, the soldier who often came to Li Youcai's house to help Li Youcai deliver things came again. This time, Wang Shulin stopped him and chatted with him for a while. He heard that Li Youcai had been promoted again. This time, he became an officer called Captain or Company Commander. He already had more than 100 people under him!
Wang Shulin was secretly shocked when he heard this, but at the same time, he was also extremely envious.
However, he heard that the army was going to recruit again. This made Wang Shulin determined to join the army!
After his brother Wang Shushu found out, he planned to go with him. After discussing it, he told his parents.
Although his parents were reluctant, there was nothing they could do. The family was in a tight spot, and his younger brothers and sisters also wanted to eat. It was just that his two eldest sons had to suffer.
His mother had been sitting in the inner room wiping her tears while his father was squatting on the doorsill smoking. The two brothers packed up their things and looked at their parents before kneeling down and kowtowing twice."Father, Mother, we're leaving!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran away without waiting for his parents to reply!
The two brothers ran all the way to the recruitment reception point in the town. They saw a long queue here, all wanting to join the army.
Wang Shulin and Wang Shushu followed behind the team and lined up. They looked at the soldiers in charge of guarding the surroundings. They were full of vitality and each of them was fierce. It was obvious that they often ate meat!
Looking at the guns on their bodies, Wang Shulin revealed a trace of envy.
Just as they were queuing up, a person suddenly walked over. The soldiers on guard saw him and saluted,"Company commander!"
The man just nodded. It was obvious that he was a senior officer.
Wang Shulin suddenly felt that this person was so familiar. He took a closer look and realized that it was Li Youcai from his village.
Wang Shulin was pleasantly surprised and couldn't help but shout,"Li Youcai! Li Youcai!"
The soldier next to him saw him shouting and suddenly came up and said,"Don't make a racket! If you talk nonsense, get out!"
Li Youcai also heard the voice and looked over. When he saw that it was his old friend, he couldn't help but walk over with a happy expression and say,"Oh, so it's Shulin, Shulin brothers. You're here to join the army too!”
"Captain, do you know him?" the soldier said.
"Yes, this is my good friend from before! We grew up together!" Li Youcai said.
"Oh, so you're the company commander's brother. I'm sorry!”The soldier put away his gun and scratched his head as he chuckled.
When Wang Shulin saw that Li Youcai's words had calmed the originally aggressive soldiers, he could not help but feel envious.
When the soldier came up and pointed his gun at him, Wang Shulin felt that he was scared out of his wits. His entire body did not listen to him. He felt like he was being targeted by a hungry wolf!
It gave him goosebumps.
Li Youcai's words made the soldier put away his gun, smile at him, and apologize to him.
Wang Shulin felt that this was the life a man should live!
Looking at the brand new military uniform on Li Youcai's body, and the thin line and three stars on his shoulder, it was said that they called it 1.3 cents?
Wang Shulin didn't know how big of an official this was. He only knew that he would wear this military uniform in the future!
Wang Shulin didn't know what a man's romance was. He also didn't know that a real man should be like this. If he could replace him, he only knew that a man should wear a military uniform and carry a steel gun!
Protect the country and fight the devils!
