Chapter 33 They are soldiers, not pigs!
"My friend, so this is the pregnant baby you were talking about. We thought it was your daughter."
Du Hu handed over the white dog in his arms, "I was thinking you don't look that old, haha!"
"Thank you, thank you. I am so grateful to the PLA comrades!"
The driver took his dog like a baby and was about to kneel down, but was caught by the crowd.
"No, fellow villager!" Luo Shan said seriously.
"Platoon leader, you don't know that I, Old Wei, have been alone all my life. My baby is everything to me!"
Luo Shan asked Lao Wei to quickly carry the dog to the car to prevent it from freezing, and then asked, "Lao Wei, can you tell me what happened to the person who stole your dog?"
After listening to Old Wei's story, everyone realized that the poacher had stopped a car on the national highway in the middle of the night and said that he was a tourist who had accidentally gotten separated from the group.
Old Wei felt sorry for the other person and as it was snowing heavily, he kindly let him get in the car.
The man seemed to know a lot about hunting dogs, and he chatted with Old Weitou quite well along the way. Unexpectedly, when he learned that there were soldiers ahead, he suddenly knocked Old Weitou unconscious and snatched the doll away.
Du Hu also stepped forward and asked a few questions, and learned that the dog was not only a purebred, but also bred with a purebred male dog he found in his hometown.
"Purebred military dogs are amazing, but they are rare nowadays!" As a future military dog trainer, Du Hu is very knowledgeable about various dog breeds.
"Yeah, I was careless too. I trusted people too much!"
Old Wei looked at Luo Shan and said, "Platoon Leader, why didn't I see you guys arrest that bastard?"
"That man is a poacher and has been handed over to the police."
Luo Shan casually replied, "My fellow, there are no more obstacles ahead. Let's get going!"
"How can that be? I saw the huge thunderstorm on the mountain just now. You risked so much to get the doll back for me. If I just left like that, would I still be a human being?"
Old Wei immediately became anxious, "My car is empty, all of you get in, I'll take you back!"
Luo Shan immediately refused: "My fellow villager, the mountain road is slippery and difficult to walk on..."
"I have tire chains!"
"We have regulations to keep the location of our base confidential..."
"Hey, aren't you in the valley next to the nameless lake?"
Old Wei pointed accurately in the direction of the new recruits' camp. "I've been running this road for years. I can see it every time I pass the pass. Why keep it secret?"
"I'm telling you, Platoon Leader, this isn't the end of the story. Once I finish loading the goods in Shigatse, I'll definitely come back to thank your troops!"
Now that things have come to this, it’s hard to refuse your kindness.
After asking for instructions on the walkie-talkie, Luo Shan took the recruits into the car.
Old Wei is indeed an experienced driver. He drove very steadily on the mountain road. Everyone in the back car didn't feel any bumps at all. It was much more comfortable than when he first joined the army.
Halfway through the walk, Luo Shan looked at his watch, stretched out his shovel and knocked twice on the outside of the cab door.
The truck braked to a stop immediately. Old Wei stuck his head out and looked behind him. "What's wrong, platoon leader? Did we take the wrong road?"
“I’m not going the wrong way.”
Luo Shan pointed at the group of people behind him and said, "Fellow countryman, you have to understand that you are pulling a cart full of soldiers, not a cart full of pigs!"
Old Wei was stunned at first, then quickly apologized: "Oh, sorry, sorry, did I bump into you? I'll drive slower!"
"My friend, that's not what I meant!"
Luo Shan explained, "Pigs will be thrown off, but they won't. Just speed up. You're going too slowly now, not even as fast as walking!"
New recruits: ???
"Okay, I got it!" Old Wei agreed.
The next moment, with the roar of the engine, the truck started running at full speed, and everyone in the car immediately fell to the ground.
. . .
. . .
When they reached the top of the hill outside the camp gate, Luo Shan stopped the truck, saying that the road ahead was too slippery and they could just walk back.
Old Wei thanked him profusely again and said that he would definitely come back to present the banner. Only after Luo Shan nodded in agreement did he turn around and leave.
Everyone came back on the snow, and it was already past three in the morning after they returned their tools. The people in the second and third rows had already finished their midnight snacks and went to bed.
"The kitchen staff has cooked noodles. If you're hungry, go and have some. If you're not hungry, go to bed early and wait until tomorrow to wake up!"
"yes!"
The recruits were extremely tired after several hours of hard work, and most of them said they just wanted to lie down.
Xu Ge didn't want to go at first, but when he saw Kai Youmu and Luo Shan walking towards the cafeteria, he followed them.
"Xu Ge, are you hungry? I have plenty of food here. Don't you think it's too much trouble to go to the cafeteria?" Li Dongshui followed and asked in confusion.
"Don't you want to know who the person who called platoon leader instructor was before? Go ask him now while there are few people around!" Xu Ge whispered.
Li Dongshui immediately became interested when he heard it and quickened his pace.
When they arrived at the cafeteria, there were only a few people eating noodles. As soon as Luo Shan took out the bowl, Xu Ge snatched it away: "Platoon leader, please sit down first. I'll go get you some food!"
"What's the matter? You want to be my communicator, right?" Luo Shan smiled and joked, then let Xu Ge go.
At the basin, Li Dongshui was holding a bowl and talking to the cook who was in charge of serving noodles.
"Thank you for your hard work, squad leader. You got up so late to cook noodles for us!"
"It's not hard, it's all I deserve, hahaha!"
The head cook said it wasn't hard, but he looked at Luo Shan with a smile.
"There are three platoons of people coming to dinner tonight, and the others haven't even said a word! Platoon Leader Luo, you're really good at leading your troops, hahahaha!"
After saying that, he bent down and added two poached eggs to each of their bowls without saying anything.
Luo Shan felt proud after hearing this, and happily invited the three of them to come and have dinner with him.
"Not bad, Li Dongshui, he's very cute and sweet-talking, and he brought back eight fried eggs right away! Hahaha!"
Luo Shan urged the three to eat quickly, "Eat it while it's hot, it'll get cold soon!"
Xu Ge wasn't actually hungry. He took one of the fried eggs from the bowl and put it into Kaiyou's wooden bowl. "Deputy Ban, you've become more and more skilled at holding chopsticks with your left hand recently!"
After hearing this, Luo Shan glanced at Kai Youmu, who was holding chopsticks in his left hand, and asked, "Are you planning to sign up after the New Year?"
"Yeah!" Kaiyoumu nodded and ate noodles with big mouthfuls.
"It just so happens that the troops will start combat training next month. I'll give you some special training then."
Kaiyoumu was overjoyed: "Thank you, Platoon Leader!"
Xu Ge and Li Dongshui looked at each other, and Xu Ge kicked him lightly from below.
Li Dongshui understood and asked quietly, "Platoon Leader, that guy called you instructor tonight. Have you also taught him?"
Perhaps because there were fewer people around, or perhaps because Luo Shan was in a good mood, he wasn't as serious as he had been on the mountain before. He smiled and nodded.
"I taught them for two months."
