Zhang Qiang showed it to the recruits twice. He explained each step in detail before dismissing them and letting everyone train on their own.
Li He hugged the blanket and found a corner. He touched the floor. It had just been cleaned, so it wasn't very dirty. She spread the blanket on the ground, took off her shoes, and lay on it.
The other class monitors understood his intentions, while the other company members looked at him in surprise, trying to fold the blanket in their hands.
"Li He! What are you doing!"
"That's right! Why didn't you fold the blanket?”
Zhao Gang and Zhu Tianyuan, who were in class, came over. They were a little curious. Because of the crowd, the others also put down the blankets in their hands and followed. Of course, this included Zhang Enci, who was like a curious baby at the beginning.
Li He explained his intentions to them as he pressed the blanket with the stool in his hand.
"Really? You can do this?"
"It's just folding a blanket. Is there a need to be so exaggerated?”
Zhu Tianyuan didn't believe Li He's words. It was obvious that he was making a mountain out of a molehill by folding the blanket.
However, they were all seventeen or eighteen-year-old young men. No matter what, they all had a competitive mentality. They all wanted to show off and not be compared to others.
Why is he the one who is eye-catching and not me?
Most of the people present had such thoughts. It was not jealousy, but more of a competitive thought.
However, it was precisely because of this competitive mindset that they could learn from each other, improve each other, and improve better.
"A bunch of brats. I told you out of kindness, but you all thought it was my fault.”
Li He rolled his eyes and complained in his heart.
She pointed at Class President Zhang Qiang's blanket." Can't you see? The class monitor's blanket is obviously thinner and flatter than ours.”
Everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction of Li He's finger.
"Eh, it's true!"
Zhang Enci, who didn't mind making a big deal out of it, went over.
If it wasn't for Li He's reminder, they really wouldn't have known that the class monitor's blanket was thinner than theirs. Now that they were reminded, they finally noticed this.
The blankets they covered were all given by the army, so there would be no difference.
Therefore, this meant that what Li He said just now was most likely true.
There weren't many people in the recruit camp to begin with. Now that everyone was living in the same dormitory, what Li He said just now instantly spread to everyone.
For a moment, the entire dormitory was in an uproar.
"This is mine!"
"Bullshit! It's clearly mine!"
"Hey, are you blind? Didn't you see that I got here first?"
"Nonsense, I was clearly the one who got here first!”
......
In an instant, everyone began to fight for the empty space. During this period, there were many disputes.
Those who managed to get a spot pressed the blanket on the spot, while those who did not had to press it on their own beds. However, due to the limited size of the bed, the blanket could not be spread out at all. In addition, the bed board was not made of hard material. With just a little bit of strength, it would make a creaking sound. It was not smooth at all to press the blanket.
Some of the people who were sleeping on the upper bunk were even more desperate, afraid that the bed would break and they would fall off.
The class monitor and platoon leader saw everyone's actions and did not say anything because that was how they had been through it.
Originally, they had planned to let these recruits try first. After a few unsuccessful attempts, they would pass on their experience. However, they did not expect Li He to mess up their plans.
Li He realized that because of his words, everyone had followed suit. He was a little proud, but he also knew that this pride would not last long.
Based on his previous life's experience, he would only be able to do something as simple as stopping shouting slogans. He would not know anything about the other slightly more difficult tasks. He would have to learn them all from scratch.
At that time, it would be the time to see his true ability. He did not know which company he would be assigned to in the end, and he did not know if he would have the chance to enter Steel Seventh Company.
Behind Li He was Cheng Cai, who was staring at him fiercely.
"Humph! Li He, right? I won't lose to you!"
Cheng Cai also noticed the thickness of the blanket, but before he could do anything, Li He had stolen his limelight. Cheng Cai was not convinced. When he thought about how he had missed the opportunity to show off in front of the class monitor and platoon leader, he could not help but press the blanket harder. Long before he entered the camp, Gao Cheng had said during the mobilization meeting that if you were a mule or a horse, you should be brought out for a walk. If you were a mule, you should go with others. Only if you were a horse, you could go with him.
The meaning of this sentence couldn't be more concise and clear. Although Cheng Cai still didn't understand the military rank, he knew that Gao Cheng was a powerful figure. If he wanted to do well in the military camp, he had to work for him. Cheng Cai hoped that he could follow Gao Cheng so that he could go higher.
Chengcai had grown up under the education of his father, the village chief. People should strive for the higher ground, and water should flow downwards. This kind of education had always lingered in his heart.
"Good luck! Become a talent, you can definitely do it."
Although Xu Sanduo was a dull person, it could be seen that Chengcai had developed a competitive mentality at this time. Chengcai had always been the best in everything he did since he was young and had always been the first.
Moreover, he was not familiar with Li He. In his opinion, Li He was just an ordinary comrade, so it was only natural for him to cheer for Cheng Cai.
As time passed, everyone's enthusiasm gradually turned cold.
The main thing was that pressing the blanket was really too exhausting. It also consumed the strength of his waist and arms. He really could not hold on for an hour.
Especially when everyone realized that there was no effect at all after pressing for a long time, they had the idea of giving up.
Li He noticed the change in everyone's attitude, but he didn't explain too much. According to his experience in his previous life, it would take at least a week for the blanket to have an effect.
After resting for an entire afternoon, it was already afternoon.
In the eyes of these boys, the morning's study and housework were at most a small episode, because in their eyes, the so-called tidying up the house was just doing housework, which was boring.
As for the real challenge, it was still the afternoon's training. Everyone's enthusiasm for this was clearly rising, except for Li He.
Humans were always like this. When faced with the knowledge that they had already learned, they would feel bored when they repeated the learning and operation.
It was just like when you were in high school and suddenly asked to go back to elementary school or junior high school to listen to classes and learn the knowledge that you had mastered long ago. It was difficult to guarantee that you would not doze off in class.
On the huge training ground, each squad stood in their own area in rows. The squad leader led them to learn the movements of a single soldier.
The actions of a single soldier included standing at ease, standing at attention, straddling, stopping to turn around, taking off his hat, and so on.
Stopping and turning during this period of time was the difficult part of the early stages of the practice, but it was also the key point.
It was fine for one person to do these actions, but if you wanted everyone in the row to be in sync, you had to rely on everyone's cooperation and familiarity with the rhythm of the squad leader's orders.
It was quite a coincidence that Class Five's training location happened to be directly opposite Class Eight.
During training, Li He kept looking at Xu Sanduo. His eyes never left Xu Sanduo, and he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Chengcai and Xu Sanduo formed a sharp contrast. One of them was at the front and the other was at the back. One could quickly familiarize himself with and master the movements. His reaction was fast and his movements were standard. One was slow to react and was often slower than others to give orders.
The key was that when he turned back, he often fell because he couldn't control himself.
The two of them formed a stark contrast.
No wonder when he watched TV dramas in the past, Wu Liuyi would comment on the two of them like that: "We're both from the same hometown. One is as smart as a ghost, and the other is as stupid as a pig.”
During the training, Li He also noticed that the person standing by the window opposite him was Gao Cheng, and the person standing next to him was the instructor, He Hongtao. The two of them had targeted gazes when they were observing.
He Hongtao was the instructor of the Third Company of the Red Team. His gaze lingered on the members of the Fourth Platoon, observing the situation of the Fourth Platoon. He wanted to see how the training was going and whether there were any good seedlings.
Gao Cheng's situation was obviously bigger than He Hongtao's. His gaze lingered around the entire recruit camp, and his head swayed left and right from time to time. It was obvious that he was observing all the recruits.
The Seventh Steel Company was the Razor Sharp Company, and almost all the elites were there. It was definitely not enough to select people from a single platoon. They had to choose from everyone.
Li He had some understanding of this. The company commander was the military supervisor. He was usually mainly responsible for the company's military training. The instructor was responsible for daily life and mental work.
Therefore, in comparison, Gao Cheng's desire for the top was much greater than He Hongtao's.
"Li He! Where are your eyes looking!"
An angry roar pulled Li He back to the main world. It turned out that Zhou Junjie, who was not far away, had discovered his little trick.
Li He, who had been scolded, quickly retracted his gaze and corrected his slightly distorted actions. Then, he stared ahead obediently and did not move at all.
