Chapter 13: Shooting requires talent? I have it too!
That night, before lights out, the atmosphere in the dormitory was harmonious and everyone was busy with their own things.
"All the lines of the quilt must be pinched out and straightened!"
After Du Hu gave the order, he sat on a chair and began to read professional books on military dog training.
Kai Youmu was doing push-ups upside down by the wall, and the recruits were folding their blankets.
Xu Ge sat on a mat, leisurely pinching lines on the folded quilt. He made the fastest progress.
I have to say that his quilt is square and angular, which makes it stand out among a pile of bread-shaped quilts of new recruits.
After placing the quilt on the bedside, the token automatically appears in front of you and a prompt appears.
[100% implementation of current military orders, housekeeping proficiency +6]
"Housekeeping: Level 2 (7/199)"
By now, Xu Ge has discovered a pattern, that is, the increase in proficiency is actually proportional to the difficulty of the military order. The more difficult the military order is to execute, the more proficiency increases!
Li Dongshui, who was in the bed next to him, thought his bed was too small, so he spread the quilt on the floor of the classroom and was lying on the floor trying hard to fold it.
However, everyone had just learned how to pack their backpacks during the day, and the quilt became extremely fluffy and difficult to shape due to being tied up with the backpack ropes. Li Dongshui took it apart several times but couldn't restore it to its original shape.
Li Dongshui looked at the leisurely Xu Ge with some envy and couldn't help but reach out and poke his back.
Xu Ge turned around: "What?"
"How do you fold this quilt? Teach me!" Li Dongshui said in a low voice.
Xu Ge sneered, "I'm not going to teach you a lesson. You sold me out to the third platoon leader last time, and he stopped me in the canteen yesterday. He said I didn't know the rules by putting my hands in my pockets, and he made me stand at attention for 20 minutes as punishment!"
"Then it's not right for you to put your hands in your pockets." Li Dongshui muttered.
"I was just reaching into my pocket to pay the bill, and he was just picking on me on purpose!" Xu Ge got angry whenever he thought about it.
Li Dongshui held up a finger: "A bottle of Wangzai milk."
Xu Ge turned his head and continued to pinch the lines.
“Two bottles!”
Xu Ge ignored him.
"Three bottles, plus a bag of spicy strips, no more!" Li Dongshui landed beside Xu Ge's legs.
Xu Ge raised his head: "Who cares about your spicy strips..."
"Xu Ge!"
"arrive!"
When Xu Ge heard the squad leader calling him, he immediately stood up.
"Comrades should help each other. You've done a good job of housekeeping. Since Li Dongshui is so kind as to ask for your advice, you should teach him!"
Seeing that the squad leader had spoken, Xu Ge had no choice but to agree: "Yes!"
Du Hu then said, "The rest of you should come over and take a look, and learn from it!"
"yes!"
The new recruits immediately surrounded them.
Xu Ge pushed Li Dongshui away and whispered, "Three bottles of Wangzai and a bag of spicy noodles. Hurry and get them in place!"
Li Dongshui nodded and made an OK gesture.
. . .
. . .
Just as Xu Ge was teaching his comrades how to fold their quilts, a corporal knocked on the door and came in.
"stand up!"
Someone shouted, and all the recruits immediately stood up and shouted in unison: "Hello, squad leader!"
The battalion clerk smiled and waved his hands: "I'm not the squad leader, you don't have to be polite! Squad Leader, your new recruits are very good!"
Du Hu also came over with a smile: "What instructions does the clerk have?"
"This is the class schedule for this month. Starting tomorrow, the troops will be on track!"
The clerk handed over a piece of A4 paper. "By the way, Squad Leader, it's your turn to be on sentry duty tonight. From two to four, you'll be at the North Gate."
Du Hu took the schedule and nodded: "Okay, I know!"
After the clerk left, Du Hu casually posted the class schedule behind the door.
Xu Ge immediately went over and saw that the date on the schedule started from tomorrow, and the main subjects were two: queue and physical fitness.
"Squad leader, we have been training in drill and physical training for this month. Aren't we a special forces unit?" Xu Ge asked.
Du Hu: "Special forces have special missions, not special people. Which new recruit doesn't start with formation, physical fitness and housekeeping?"
"Then when can we play with guns?" Xu Ge asked again.
Since you have joined the army, no one is not curious about guns.
"Don't worry, there will be times when you'll have fun until you vomit."
Du Hu smiled, "Hurry up and fold your blankets. I have something to say before lights out!"
The recruits immediately returned to their respective beds to speed up the process. Xu Ge also helped Li Dongshui fold the quilts from the ground and move them to the beds to tidy them up.
"Xu Ge, do you like playing with guns?"
Xu Ge was helping Li Dongshui to pinch the lines of his quilt. Li Dongshui, who had nothing to do, leaned against the bed frame and asked.
"I don't know whether I like it or not. Mainly because I've never touched it and I'm curious." Xu Ge said without even raising his head.
"If you've never touched a gun, you probably won't be any good at shooting."
Li Dongshui's eyes rolled. "How about this? You help me with housework and I'll teach you how to shoot."
Xu Ge stopped and turned his head: "You want me, the second mate, to be your babysitter?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? In the words of the squad leader, this is called mutual help." Li Dongshui explained.
"What are you thinking about? I just played at the shooting range for a few days before joining the army. What's the big deal? Do you believe that my shooting skills can be as good as yours after practicing for a few days?" Xu Ge made a gun-holding gesture with both hands and pointed at Li Dongshui.
"I don't believe it."
"Just wait for me!"
Kaiyoumu, who was doing a handstand against the wall next to him, turned over and stood up, patting Xu Ge on the shoulder: "Zhanyou, when it comes to shooting, talent is very important!"
Xu Ge was stunned: "That's not right, Deputy Squad Leader. Didn't you say the day before yesterday that sharpshooters are all fed by bullets?"
"That's assuming you have talent! Will it be useful if you fire 10,000 bullets with your eyes closed?" Kai Youmu stretched his body on the spot and started the next set of handstand push-ups.
Xu Ge, however, did not give up and pressed on, "Deputy Class Leader, what does it mean to be talented? How do you know if you have talent?"
"Don't bother the deputy squad leader with his training. I'm telling you, someone like me is called talented!"
Li Dongshui crossed his arms and pointed his nose at Xu Ge, "I've been able to throw things accurately since I was a child. I hit the target the first time I touched a gun, without anyone teaching me!"
Xu Ge's eyes lit up: "Throwing things accurately means you have talent? No wonder this kid's throwing skills are top-notch."
If I upgrade my throwing skill to the special level, can it also improve my shooting talent?
"Okay, everyone stop and gather together!"
Du Hu put away the professional books on military dog training, and everyone immediately stood in a row in the middle of the dormitory.
"You just saw the clerk deliver the class schedule. Starting tomorrow, all activities must be strictly arranged according to the schedule!"
"We are a team, so we must be at the forefront of everything, whether it's housekeeping, style, or training!"
"I want to praise Xu Ge here. His housekeeping standards are the best in our class, except for the deputy class leader. You should all learn from him! I hope Xu Ge will maintain his good standards in other areas as well!"
In the queue, Xu Ge unconsciously straightened his chest.
"Tomorrow's morning exercises will be done by the entire camp. Everyone should rest early tonight. No one is allowed to lag behind. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Don't sleep too deeply, or you won't hear the wake-up call. Okay, let's go wash up!"
The new recruits didn't realize anything was wrong with Du Hu's last words, and they all went out with their washbasins to wash up.
Kai Youmu deliberately waited until the end, and when he passed by Du Hu, he whispered, "Squad Leader, are we going to start tonight?"
Du Hu remained noncommittal: "I was just guessing. You know the instructor's personality. Since the schedule has been handed down, he definitely won't wait until tomorrow."
Kai Youmu suddenly realized: "Then I will pack my backpack before going to bed tonight!"
