Chapter 87: The End of the World: Zhou and Tang Extra (40)
After the apocalypse, Zhou Tang returned to the army and became a senior officer.
It's not that he didn't try to persuade Fu Yan, but that bastard was busy accompanying the little zombie on his honeymoon and flying around the world. How could he have the slightest intention of returning to the army to pursue his career?
Zhou Tang opened his phone and saw the circle of friends that Fu Yan had posted ten minutes ago.
The background of the picture is the Xishuangbanna Starlight Night Market. It is crowded with people and all you can see are a wide variety of dazzling headdresses and hawking stalls.
And his domineering brother who was carrying a knife was wearing the unique costume of Xishuangbanna at this moment, with a banana leaf on his head and a big coconut in his hand, which he patiently handed to the girl's mouth.
Fu Yan is indeed worthy of being the captain of the army back then. His facial lines are clear and his features are sharp and delicate.
The messy hair covered the narrow eyes, and the large banana leaves on the head swayed in the wind.
He was happier than ever, and his eyes seemed to be filled with bright stars, so dazzling.
The girl snuggled up to him, with silver tassels on her head and wearing a strapless Dai dress, had skin as white as snow, a bright smile, and beautiful eyes curved into crescents.
The caption on the circle of friends: She said Banna is beautiful, but I think she is not even one ten-thousandth as beautiful as her.
Zhou Tang hissed softly and rubbed away the goose bumps on his arms.
Such corny copywriting must have been written by a little zombie, it must be.
In reality:
"This copy is too corny, why don't we change it!"
Fu Yan looked at her with resentment, and Shen Yuan immediately compromised.
"Okay, okay, just use this. As long as you're happy."
Fu Yan's mood instantly improved a lot. He curled his lips and added a comment below very deliberately.
“She said it was a good copy.”
In response to this, Zhou Tang just wanted to laugh and decisively blocked Fu Yan's circle of friends.
Just as he put away his phone, Zhou Tang heard someone shouting outside.
"Captain Zhou! A new batch of soldiers has arrived!"
He said okay, then changed his clothes and went out.
In the open space not far away stood rows of young men and women, dressed in solemn military uniforms, their not-so-fair skin shining in the sun.
These are substitute soldiers who have climbed up step by step from the grassroots level. They need to undergo two months of devilish training here, and Zhou Tang acts as their temporary instructor.
Two months later, he selected two soldiers with the best performance and excellent physical abilities, and handed them over to the superior troops to carry out the secret mission.
It can be said that this is the wish of all reserve soldiers. They fight and strive for themselves and are not afraid of hardships and obstacles.
Seeing Zhou Tang, they all shouted
"Hello, instructor!"
Zhou Tang has a handsome appearance, but when he is not smiling, his eyes and eyebrows look very fierce.
The camouflage instructor uniform wrapped around his bulging muscles and tall stature were the result of years of exercise.
With his long arms folded behind his back, Zhou Tang's hawk-like gaze slowly swept across every tender yet tough face.
I have to say that although Zhou Tang is stupid and speaks incoherently, when it comes to doing serious work, he really has the style of an iron-faced instructor.
After experiencing the cruel end of the world, he, the darling of the army, was forced to grow up.
The first training is rolling in the mud.
The quagmire is not an ordinary quagmire, but a poem by Wang Wei...bah.
Instead, it was a quagmire covered with a layer of ice. Although it was June, the temperature of the mud was very low, which effectively ensured the melting and loss of the ice at the bottom.
The ice also rapidly lowered the temperature of the silt. The two complemented each other and became the first difficulty encountered by this batch of seedlings.
But they were people who had experienced all this before, so they quickly took off their coats and went into the water, splashing around in the mud.
As the last person climbed ashore, Zhou Tang pressed the timer.
Ten laps back and forth, three minutes and twenty seconds.
The physical fitness of this group of soldiers is quite good, which makes it even more convenient...
Zhou Tang raised a wicked smile and immediately issued the second task.
Hiking in the rainforest.
Five kilometers away from the training site, there is a dense forest with a winding river in the middle of the forest, which nurtures many poisonous creatures.
There are five kinds that can be named: scorpions, leeches, spiders, poisonous snakes, and red ants.
In addition, the forest is full of colorful poisonous insects.
These things, which shouldn't appear in the same season, grow wildly because of the river and the suitable temperature in the rainforest.
Although Zhou Tang was strict, he still followed in to provide necessary assistance in order to ensure their safety.
The climate in the rainforest in June was very cool. The wind carrying the fragrance of trees blew across my cheeks, and then two poisonous spiders fell from the top of my head.
The rainforest is beautiful, but deadly.
Zhou Tang held a short dagger in his hand and cut off the poisonous snake with its bloody mouth in front of him with an expressionless face.
In an instant, the snake's head fell to the ground and blood spread into the clear river water at its feet.
Zhou Tang looked at the broken snake remains on the ground and was distracted for a few seconds.
He now has the same zombie-killing aura as that bastard Fu Yan.
Zhou Tang smiled, took out his cell phone from his waist and sent a message to Fu Yan.
"In two months, this group of soldiers will set out and come to play with you."
*
Zhou Tang did what he said. Two months later, he boarded a plane to Inner Mongolia.
And that was the fifteenth location that Fu Yan and Shen Yuan checked in.
The grasslands of Inner Mongolia are growing in good condition, and from a distance they look green.
The locals were herding their sheep for food, and the wind blowing towards them had a fresh smell.
The three of them sat in the yurt, drinking kumis and beef jerky prepared by the host.
As night fell, they held hands with the hospitable Mongolian people and danced around the campfire.
The simple folk songs are carried by the wind and blow across every inch of land.
All they see is the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland, the place they were willing to sacrifice their lives to protect.
*
Zhou Tang never married and devoted his entire life to his country and his people.
He worked hard in the army and completed one mission after another.
Brilliant, agile, and an eternal warrior.
Medals and trophies covered the entire wall.
When he was sixty years old, a non-commissioned officer from the team came to visit him.
This non-commissioned officer was one of the first soldiers he taught.
He came to see him with his achievements.
Zhou Tang touched the sergeant's broad shoulders and the dazzling medal on his chest.
"Well done! Well done!"
The sergeant smiled shyly and handed a letter to Zhou Tang.
"This is?"
"This is a handwritten thank-you letter from our comrades. It's been thirty-five years. We agreed that we must win this merit, otherwise we would be ashamed to face you."
Zhou Tang smiled, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes.
He saw his former self and Fu Yan in the non-commissioned officer.
Passionate and brave, motivated and hardworking.
At this time, the sergeant noticed a photo frame on the wall of honor.
In the photo frame, there are two men in military uniforms, looking heroic and full of youth.
"The one on the left is you, then who is the one on the right?"
Zhou Tang reached out and touched the young face on the photo frame, his tone nostalgic.
"He is the most trusted comrade in my life."
