Chapter 373: Killing One to Warn the Hundred
No matter how careful she was, it was just like trying to cover up the truth. Instructor Huang, who was standing in front of the team, how could he not notice her sneaking around?
He shouted loudly and called people to the front of the team.
"Run 15 laps around the playground. Don't eat if you don't finish. Listen carefully, everyone. I will come to check again after the wake-up call tomorrow morning. Those who fail will be treated the same as her."
Instructor Huang wanted to make an example of one person and make the soldiers obey his orders, so he had to have both rewards and punishments. Simply coaxing them will only result in a group of disunity.
Zhao Yuying had a sad face as she was punished in public on her first day in the army.
She glared at Lu Sihui with resentment, but she saw that she didn't even look at her. She stared straight ahead with her hands hanging naturally in the crotch of her trousers. Her posture was the same as the old soldier next to her.
He gritted his teeth, not daring to bargain with the instructor, and just ran obediently.
In order to catch up with dinner, she ran very fast at the beginning, wishing she could finish fifteen laps in one go.
The playground is very big, one lap is at least 800 meters, and fifteen laps is 12,000 meters, which is very easy.
For the veteran, these fifteen laps were nothing, but for Zhao Yuying, who lacked exercise, it was different. She was out of breath after running just two laps and had to slow down.
None of the veterans over there looked at her. This was the result of their training. They had to remain motionless even if a person flashed before their eyes or a fly landed on their nose.
“Hoo, hoo.”
By the time Zhao Yuying ran the fifth lap, her legs were so exhausted that she felt like she was walking. She opened her mouth wide and gasped like a dehydrated fish. She felt like her lungs were about to explode.
Every time she ran past Lu Sihui, she glared at her fiercely, which was the motivation that supported her to keep running.
She must not be made to laugh at herself.
While Zhao Yuying was being punished, Wang Haixia was already unable to hold on and was about to collapse.
She was weak and couldn't stand the strong wind. Standing like this motionless was torture for her.
"Stand here first, everyone, run around the playground twice to warm up."
Instructor Huang knew the principle of slow and steady progress, and that she couldn't train everyone to fail on the first day. But in just a short while, she probably knew which ones had better physical fitness and greater endurance.
Those people are physically weak and have low endurance.
Letting these people run is for their own good, so that they don't fall ill right after joining the army. Running and sweating can get the blood circulating in their bodies, and they will naturally be fine.
"Stand at attention, at ease, turn right, and run in step."
She gave orders according to the veteran training, but forgot that these were all new recruits, so when she told them to turn right, both of them turned to the left.
"Can't you tell left from right? After dinner, both of you should practice turning left and right."
Instructor Huang walked up to Li Mei and Wang Haixia, frowned and scolded them. Among them, the one with the most standard movements was Lu Sihui, and she liked this cold girl more and more.
"Lu Sihui, go to the front of the team and lead them to run."
This was a deliberate arrangement by Instructor Huang. Lu Sihui saluted and shouted "yes", then trotted to the front of the team and stood at attention. Then, she imitated the way the veterans ran, put her hands on both sides of her waist, and began to jog.
Zhao Yuying had run nine laps over there, with her hands on her waist, moving forward step by step. She couldn't run anymore, and she would die if she ran any further.
"Report to the instructor, I can't run anymore."
She walked up to Instructor Huang and gave her a soft salute, which looked more like scratching her ears than a salute.
"This is the military. No bargaining allowed. Follow orders, or you won't get any food."
