Chapter 56: Being proficient in both civil and military affairs, is this a reward for me?
Unexpectedly, Chen Mo tiptoed back to the dormitory.
The recruits, who were supposed to be sleeping soundly in bed, were surprisingly united at this moment.
They all wore shorts and military coats.
He was so cold that his upper and lower teeth were chattering, but he still lay by the window, staring intently outside.
"Why are you all awake?"
Chen Mo pushed the door open and looked in surprise at his comrades who were sneaking around in a row.
"Old Chen, was the guy from Team 7 arrested?"
They had just seen Chen Mo going upstairs and knew that he was the only one there, and Lao Pao didn't follow him.
A group of people rushed over, and Feng Junling looked at him with gossipy eyes.
"Uh, I found it. It should be in the detention room now."
Chen Mo nodded, walked across the crowd, put the monitor's timer back into the cabinet, took off his backpack and placed it on the bed. He then sat down and looked at everyone and said, "Did you all hear the noise?"
"Of course." Yang Dali snorted and slid into bed, "Just now, there were street lights on downstairs, and a meeting going on."
"We woke up a long time ago and saw you carrying a shovel and going to look for someone with the old soldier."
"Where on earth did you find the person?"
"The sewer behind the cafeteria." Chen Mo did not hide it. It was not a secret anyway.
"Damn, can someone hide in the sewer? And still alive?" Feng Junling came over with a silly look on his face.
"Nonsense, he must be alive. Didn't you see those veterans tying him up and taking him away just now?"
This time it was not Chen Mo who responded, but Yang Dali who answered first.
"Deputy squad leader, will the troops beat Lu Jun in a situation like this?" Zhu Gaituan asked after climbing onto the upper bunk.
"I think so."
Chen Mo answered perfunctorily, mainly because there were too many questions and he really couldn't respond to them all.
In fact, if you encounter this kind of thing, it's more than just a beating. If the beating is too light, it probably won't work.
There are very few cases of beating people for no reason in the army, but few people are kind to deserters.
Especially because of this incident, the veterans implicated will probably not go easy on them.
However, judging from the way those squad leaders just went up and tied up people, it is highly likely that the unit will not choose to retreat.
In other words, the company had no intention of giving up on him.
Fortunately, it was retrieved early, and Lu Jun did not leave the barracks, so the news should not have been leaked to the military district.
Chen Mo listened to the new recruits in the class chatting nonsense, but he had no intention of joining in.
Let’s not talk about Lu Jun’s situation for now, but the entire Second Company of Recruits will probably have a hard time in the next few days.
There is no need to talk about any rectification during the recruit stage.
But in the army, it takes more than just this one word to reorganize.
Just find some excuse to strengthen ideological education and strictly control personnel.
It will make the entire company miserable.
Because everyone who has served in the military knows that this means a full-scale reorganization.
The guys in the dormitory were only excited for a short while. They discussed the extent of the possible beatings and then imagined the environment in the solitary confinement room.
Soon, the topic was changed.
One by one, they crawled into bed and lay at the head of the bed, chatting idly.
Chen Mo had already put on his clothes, so there was no need for him to get into bed. He simply squatted on the floor and folded the quilt.
As for how the company handled Lu Jun's incident, it was not mentioned again outside, and the morning exercises for that day were cancelled.
Until about seven o'clock.
Lao Pao just returned to the dormitory. He first took a quick look at the housekeeping situation and seemed to have found nothing wrong.
Lao Pao put his hands on his waist and shouted, "Everyone, gather."
"First, let me tell you about today's training schedule. Morning drills are cancelled. Everyone is in the dormitory memorizing the instructions."
"When we get to the cafeteria to eat, no loud noises are allowed, and no whispering is allowed. When singing, just shout as loud as you can."
"If I see someone with a tight lipped mouth, trying to fool me, hehe..."
Lao Pao didn't utter the last threat, but his sinister smile, coupled with the fake smile on his face, was more effective than any harsh words.
The new recruits standing in line felt a chill on their backs that went straight up to the top of their heads.
"Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you guys."
"Chen Mo."
"arrive."
"You lead the team to the cafeteria entrance. Again, when you sing, sing at the top of your lungs."
"Go ahead."
At first, Chen Mo was a little puzzled, because Lao Pao was not usually such a talkative person.
Before the physical fitness week, the company had sung songs several times. He has always been quite Buddhist and adopted the strategy of moving his feet instead of talking nonsense.
Why did you change your personality today?
But this doubt disappeared without a trace after Chen Mo led the team downstairs.
Cheng Dong, the company commander of the second company of recruits, has returned, and standing next to him is a sturdy man named Ermaoer.
Both of them stood at the entrance of the cafeteria.
Cheng Dong's eyes were red, and the huge dark circles on his face were extremely obvious, even covering up his tanned skin from years of training.
Chen Mo guessed that the 22 cents should be a cadre specially arranged by the brigade headquarters to supervise the training atmosphere.
There is also some intention to suppress Captain Cheng's anger.
After all, the new recruit ran away for a whole day before being found. Which company commander would not be angry?
Wait for all classes to take their places.
The attendant walked to the speaking position at the front of the line, stood at attention, and shouted, "Everyone."
"stand at attention."
"Look to the right!"
"Look forward, and stand at ease."
"Stand at attention. Let's sing a song. I'll start, and comrades, follow along."
"One, two, three, four, get ready."
It seems that each class received a similar reminder before departure.
The sound of singing before the meal was so loud that they had to hoarse their throats.
The momentum is stronger than ever before.
Chen Mo stood in the queue and sang along with his comrades next to him, probably because there were other cadres present.
The class monitors were quite well behaved. They all stood at a distance and no one came to supervise.
But he didn't come over, but his eyes were like a scanner, scanning the new recruits in his class back and forth continuously.
Deterrence is being carried out at all times.
Chen Mo raised his head, closed his eyes and was shouting loudly when he suddenly felt someone pulling his shoulder.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that Lao Pao had walked up to him and said, "Come out for a moment. The battalion commander wants to see you."
"battalion commander?"
Hearing this, Chen Mo looked up at the officer who was worth two cents. At this time, the officer was standing a little away from the queue.
Cheng Dong is there too.
“Hello, Battalion Commander!!”
"Hello, Captain!!"
Chen Mo quickly ran up to the two men, stood at attention and saluted with a loud voice.
"You're welcome." The battalion commander mentioned by Lao Pao smiled and returned the greeting. Then he raised his hand to pinch Chen Mo's shoulder and said with a smile: "I have heard that there is a martial arts scholar in the second company."
"You are a man of both civil and military talents. In this company, many veteran comrades can't outrun you. It seems you are really good."
"Reporting to the battalion commander, the squad leaders are just letting me go. If we really want to compete, I need to practice more."
Chen Mo responded loudly.
What he said was not modesty. There were many talented people in the reconnaissance company, and many veterans did not bother with him, but that did not mean that he was really incompetent.
In grassroots companies, especially in the front lines of field operations, which company does not have a few "Taishan Beidou"-level beasts in charge?
It’s just that this kind of veteran usually keeps a low profile.
"Haha, there's no need to be so humble, if we really mean it, we're closer."
"Platoon Leader Zhou was also my former squad leader. You must learn well from him."
"Yes, Captain."
The battalion commander raised his hand and patted Chen Mo's shoulder.
Cheng Dong stood by and watched without saying a word, but the distance was close.
Chen Mo only then realized that although Captain Cheng looked exhausted, he did not seem impatient.
It seems that my company commander has a wide network of contacts, so the missing recruit should not have resulted in too severe a punishment.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be so calm.
Perhaps noticing that Chen Mo's eyes were constantly on him, Cheng Dong raised his hand and waved unhappily: "Let's go to the cafeteria first."
"By the way, you will have dinner at the company's dining table today."
"Go ahead."
"yes."
Chen Mo raised his hand to salute, then turned around and clenched his fist under the gaze of a group of miserable recruits.
He walked into the cafeteria in a casual manner.
While having dinner with the company commander, Chen Mo felt that it was he who provided the clues that led to the discovery of Lu Jun.
This was the company commander's commendation or encouragement to him.
