Chapter 11 Lao Zhao
I don't know where it rose from, but the only thing Lu Nan is sure of is that the launch site is at least [-] kilometers away from here, or even farther.

Even though the legs are numb and the ears are aching from the icy cold wind, looking at the beautiful traces in the sky, a sense of participation and pride emerges in my heart.

But the task is still not over. The southern forest at night has a huge temperature difference, especially when there is a warm day in the daytime and a bone-chilling cold wave at night.

The green rubber shoes on the feet have been wet by the wet moss. The moss in the south is thick, several centimeters thick, and rich in water.It doesn't feel good to have the sun during the day, but at night it makes people see what torture is.

The infantry vehicles in the mountain pass cast faint lights, and checkpoints have been set up on the road.

Armored Scouts, the legendary Night Tiger Scouts are the scouts of scouts, and the Armored [-]st Company should not be underestimated.

Standing behind the wind-blown pine tree, Lu Nan leaned on the tree trunk and stared at the dark forest ahead.This position is for the veteran to take care of him, at least he doesn't have to stand on the hill and let his face face the cold wind coming through the mountain.

When it comes to military age, Lu Nan is not necessarily shorter than them.But this is the wishes of the veterans, and the love and care for the recruits from all the veterans in the national defense army. If they stubbornly refuse to agree, it will be a bit embarrassing.

'Ah~~~咕咕~~~'

There was a bird cry in the forest. This is a bird that is similar to a quail but slightly larger than it. It is said to be a bird, but it has lost the ability to fly in the sky, just like a domesticated chicken.

Suddenly there was a strange sound and the sparse and dim lights flickered. Lu Nan became keenly alert and slowly raised the muzzle of his gun to point forward.

"who is it?"

"I, Zhao Shundong."

Lu Nan immediately put down his gun and stood at attention: "Hello, squad leader!"

"are you tired?"

Old Zhao came out of the forest with four lunch boxes in his arms.There are several fresh sludge on the trouser legs and wrists, densely packed stolen clothes, and other easily stained herb seeds.

"Give me the gun, you eat first, and I'll help you stand for a while."

Lu Nan took off his rifle and leaned against the tree, and took the aluminum lunch box in Old Zhao's arms.There are four lunch boxes, two of which contain six lukewarm steamed buns, and the remaining one contains shredded potatoes and fried pork.

Picking up Lu Nan's rifle, Lao Zhao said, "Hurry up and eat. I will help Comrade Du Dahong and the others stand guard after eating."

"Yes."

Lu Nan, who had been hungry for a long time, didn't care about anything. He picked up a steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.After eating two steamed buns, Lu Nan picked up the water bottle and poured it into his mouth, then closed the lid and savored it.

Lu Nan didn't touch the pot of fried pork. Standing on the windy hillside didn't consume much energy, while Du Dahong and Cui Zhiyong were lying on the wet moss.The clothes are already soaked, so they should eat more.

"Squad leader, I'm done eating."

Old Zhao handed the gun to Lu Nan, squatted down to pack the lunch box with a flashlight, but found that the pot of fried pork hadn't even moved.When he turned around and raised his head, he saw Lu Nan standing upright, holding the steel gun tightly in both hands and looking forward.Old Zhao shook his head and smiled, but didn't say anything.

Holding the lunch box in his arms, Old Zhao walked up the hill.

The cold wind blew against the big trees, and there was a whimper in the forest, and the leaves rustled.

In the quiet forest, there are no insects, only jackdaws crying, and the east wind howling.

little time.

Old Zhao walked down from the hill with a flashlight, came to Lu Nan and squatted down, and waved him to squat down too.Old Zhao took out a pack of Hardmen from his pocket, smiled and handed one to Lu Nan.

"Do you smoke?"

Lu Nan shook his head and replied, "No, monitor."

"It won't be good. It's better not to smoke." Old Zhao lit a cigarette by himself. Compared with Deng Sanpao, who had Hongtashan in his pocket, the Hadmen smoked by Old Zhao was much lower grade.

"Originally, the recruits could stay at the company headquarters. All the recruits except you stayed at the company headquarters, but I reported to the platoon leader and brought you out. What happened to the first mission, how can I do it without seeing the world."

Lu Nan still stood without squatting down: "I feel very honored."

"Hahaha."

Lao Zhao smiled and said: "It's good to be able to adapt. Originally, according to the training requirements, there were no tasks this year, but recently I have been training and on duty. Although the army is a bit stricter, it is still good. You can eat meat every day, especially In our armored reconnaissance company, it’s not a bragging rights to have meat in our meals.”

"The food is really good."

"You can adapt well, but I'm afraid you can't adapt."

Old Zhao stubbed out his cigarette and continued: "In the army, you have to work hard. Don't even think about being bad. At most, you will become addicted to cigarettes. But it's best if you don't smoke. You should keep your one-month subsidy. Don't give it to veterans like others. Buying cigarettes, drinking alcohol, and eating, and after a few years of service, he may not be able to build a house in the village.

Our hometown is poor, so since we joined the army, we have to work hard, and if we do well, the village will give us rice and oil.That Xu Ping, he has done well, you have to learn from him, don't be like Du Dahong, holding a sniper rifle and not learning this or that.

We are armored soldiers. If we learn how to drive tanks, repair vehicles, and buy a walking tractor after returning to the village, we will definitely get rich, you know? "

Lu Nan nodded seriously: "Understood, monitor."

Immediately, Lao Zhao got up and took out a few hard fruit candies from his pocket and stuffed them into Lu Nan's pocket.

When leaving, Lao Zhao said: "Persevere, and someone will change the guard in the middle of the night. It may take some time. After the mission is over, I will teach you how to drive an armored vehicle. If you have a chance, you can even shoot a few shells and a few boxes of bullets. won't let you sit idle."

"I will persevere through."

"That's good."

After all, Lao Zhao carefully sneaked into the woods with a dim flashlight and a lunch box in his arms.Lu Nan stood where he was and watched the dim lights disappear, disappearing into the pitch-black weeds and bushes.

Hot tears ran across his face, and he wiped them away casually, and continued to look at the dark forest ahead.

For example, Zhao Shundong, this is the greatest care for the younger generation from the vast number of rural soldiers, carrying the most solid foundation and the most beautiful side of this army.

They don't speak eloquently about some great truths, they just use the most approachable tone and say the most touching words.

Use thousands of dollars in retirement fees to build a house, or buy a walking tractor, name role models to learn from, and learn the skills and techniques that can gain a foothold in society.

Joining the army is an opportunity, and joining the Armored Forces is an opportunity that many people dream of. The more this is the case, the harder it is to study hard.

The cold wind was blowing. Although it was a bit cold, Lu Nan was really moved by Lao Zhao's heartfelt words.
