Did the company commander allow my parents to come and see me?
Li Ran was a little surprised. He did not expect the company commander to agree. After all, he was still in the recruit training period.
"Li Ran, the Tibetan Region is so far away. It's not easy for your parents to come and visit. Tell them to do some altitude sickness prevention training at home so that they won't feel uncomfortable here.”Wang Qiang kindly reminded.
"Got it. Thank you, class monitor."
Wang Qiang was also happy for Li Ran from the bottom of his heart that the company commander had agreed to let Li Ran's parents visit.
Parental visits were an extremely extravagant thing for recruits and even veterans.
Once one became a soldier and chose to continue down the path, they would basically be further and further away from home, especially in their place.
Due to the bad weather and altitude sickness, those whose families were poor or whose parents were not in good health could not come at all. They could only wait for the holidays to come home.
When the students of Class 3 learned that Li Ran's parents would come to visit, they were all happy and envious.
"Brother Ran, when are Uncle and Auntie coming? We'll hold a welcoming ceremony for them.”Wang Erniu laughed.
"I'm not sure yet. There's no need for the welcoming ceremony.”
"Brother Ran, I really envy you. My family is poor. Let alone taking the train, my parents have never even entered the city.”Wang Erniu said, feeling a little sad.
"I believe you will make your parents proud.”Li Ran patted Wang Erniu's shoulder and comforted him.
"Vice class representative, congratulations."
"If Vice Class President's parents knew that Vice Class President is so powerful here, they would definitely be proud.”
"If I could play games like the vice class president, my parents would probably be so excited that they would buy firecrackers to celebrate.”
Looking at how happy everyone in Class Three was for him, Li Ran actually felt quite upset.
This was his first time being a soldier. Although he had never been a soldier in his previous life, he knew the hardships of being a soldier, especially when he was a soldier on the border of the plateau. In this life, he only knew how hard it was after being a soldier.
Take Wang Erniu for example. He was a young man from the countryside. Because his family was poor, he joined the army to reduce the pressure on his family. Although he was a little silly and sometimes his learning speed was slower than others, he could endure hardships.
Before enlisting, Wang Erniu was still a little chubby. Now, he had lost a fist of weight. His skin was tanned. Due to the highland climate, his face and lips were cracked.
Not only Li Erniu, but everyone else was like this, including Li Ran.
The harsh environment was not the only thing. In terms of food, the scarcest thing on the plateau was not meat, but vegetables and fruits.
Vegetables and fruits were quite scarce here. The climate was bad, so it was not easy to store them. Moreover, the amount of vegetables provided by the logistics supply was so much that it was not enough to eat.
Don't ask why this was the case. Under the general environment, the Dragon Country was developing its economy and improving the living standards of the people, so the troops naturally had to sacrifice some.
After reading it, Li Ran knew what to write in her reply to her parents.
In his reply, he told his parents to train at home to prevent altitude sickness. At the same time, he asked his rich father to prepare one or two more carts of supplies.
Although it couldn't solve the root of the problem, it was at least a gesture of goodwill.
Money was meant to be spent. Li Ran did not feel any heartache at spending money on this. He believed that his retired soldier father would not feel any heartache and would be very supportive.
He also bought some small gifts for his comrades in class.
Once the new recruits finished their company, they would be separated and assigned to different combat companies. It was rare for them to meet after two years.
Barracks made of iron, soldiers flowing.
Thus, Li Ran's reply filled up three to four pages.
..........
The days passed, and the training of the new recruits continued. Every day, they repeated the content of the previous training and continued to train.
But today was an unforgettable and memorable day for all the recruits.
That was because the shooting that they had been dreaming of was finally here.
The new recruits lined up in a row, and the three squads gathered together. The squad leaders of the three squads worked together to move a box of firearms from the armory.
The recruits from the three classes stood in a line, but their eyes could not help but look at the guns at the side. Their eyes revealed the anticipation that they had been dreaming of for a long time.
What was the point of being a soldier? Other than protecting the country, wasn't it just to shoot a gun?
This thing could only be legally possessed and shot here. It would be captured in minutes outside.
" Two-thirds of your life as a recruit has passed. In the past two and a half months, you have mastered all kinds of basic skills as soldiers. I believe that today is the day that all of you have been looking forward to the most.”
After saying that, Chen Hai picked up a Type 81 automatic rifle and showed it to everyone."Type 81 automatic rifle, commonly known as the 81 bar. It uses 7.62mm caliber bullets and has good performance. It can be used in all kinds of harsh environments.”
"Very soon, each of you will be able to own it. I want to emphasize one thing here. When it is in your hands, it is not only a gun, but also your comrade and partner. Therefore, each of you must be familiar with it and love it. Do you understand?”
"Understood."
" Now, let's begin the spear ceremony."
After Chen Hai finished speaking, he began to call out names according to the order of the name list. The first name was Li Ran.
"Li Ran."
"Yes."
"Step forward."
Li Ran held her head high and puffed out her chest. She strode to Chen Hai and saluted him.
Chen Hai held the gun with both hands and handed it to Li Ran with a solemn expression. Li Ran caught it with both hands.
"I hereby grant you the Type 81 Automatic Rifle with the gun number ***. Taking over this steel gun means that you will shoulder the sacred mission given to you by the people. I hope that you can cherish this steel gun like you cherish your life.”
"Yes!"
"Get in line."
"Qiu Mingyuan."
"Yes."
......
When the recruits of the three classes all had their own Type 81 automatic rifles, Li Ran, who was the recruit representative and also the first row representative, led the row of people to take the oath.
" I swear that I will cherish my equipment as if I were taking care of my own life. I will strictly enforce the equipment management regulations, operate, use, and maintain my equipment properly, study hard, and train hard…"
Please give me all kinds of support. Flowers and evaluation votes are very important. I hope you can give me more.）
