Chapter 1261 Joining the army gets you a motorcycle? I want a Ducati!
"Subject, squat down!"
"Upon hearing the command to squat down, step back half a step with your right foot, landing on the ball of your foot!"
"Sit on your right heel, with your knee off the ground, fingers naturally together on your knees, and your upper body upright!"
"Upon hearing the command to stand up, all body parts work together to quickly stand up and assume the correct posture!"
After Zhao Pengfei finished his demonstration, he stood up and was immediately greeted with applause.
Then, he adjusted his hat and walked back to the group.
He looked at the squad leader who was supervising him and said, "Did you see clearly?"
The sixth squad leader nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice: "I saw it clearly."
Zhao Pengfei: "Previously, when you were teaching how to squat, your knees touched the ground, which was improper and incorrect. I hope you can adjust immediately and set a good example."
"understand."
The squad leader of the sixth squad did the squatting again in front of the new recruits.
With Zhao Pengfei's demonstration and guidance this time, it did look more standard than before.
Zhao Pengfei nodded to him, and then the sixth squad leader wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up, and began the next training exercise.
However, during the teaching process, he would occasionally glance at Zhao Pengfei to seek the opinion of the vice class monitor.
The reason is simple: Zhao Pengfei has served longer and is more senior.
This squad leader, however, has only been in the army for four years and is only in his first term.
Originally, this veteran who had "enlisted twice" was quite happy to be assigned to his own squad.
He felt that finally someone could assist him, which would make leading troops much easier.
But as it turns out, he was overthinking it!
Compared to Zhao Pengfei, a veteran, he was as green as a green recruit!
Almost every aspect of the training could be found to be flawed; it was as if they had found a living father!
This left him, the squad leader of the sixth platoon of the third company of new recruits, feeling like crying. Moreover, he was always a little nervous in front of the other party, worried that he would not do a good job and that his demonstration would be flawed.
Zhao Pengfei wasn't deliberately nitpicking; it was just that, from the perspective of a veteran of over ten years, the other party's teaching was indeed somewhat imperfect, so he instinctively corrected it.
Especially when it came to certain formation movements, Zhao Pengfei's mind was filled with images of Qin Feng marching in Red Square as a flag bearer.
When you set the standards high, it's not just this sixth squad leader; you have to bring over every squad leader in the entire new recruit training base and go through the process.
They probably won't be able to walk the path that Zhao Pengfei is satisfied with, and of course, he himself won't be able to either.
Therefore, he wasn't too picky about this project.
"To the left!"
"turn back!"
"Turn to the right halfway!"
"Standing!"
The next training exercise is the stationary turning technique.
The squad leader of the sixth squad felt quite ashamed looking at Zhao Pengfei's almost perfect movements.
He even considered quitting his job and letting the other person become the squad leader so he could train with the new recruits.
But thinking about it, it's really shameful to do that, because the current policy allows more veterans to "re-enlist," so Zhao Pengfei isn't the only "veteran" at the entire new recruit training base.
Other companies also have some veterans who, for various reasons, have returned to their original units after being discharged.
Therefore, the sixth squad leader felt much better after realizing that he was not the only one suffering.
"Everyone, take a ten-minute break, drink water, and go to the toilet."
The squad leader clapped his hands, dismissed the group, and felt much more relaxed.
As soon as the order to dismiss was given, the new recruits of the sixth squad gathered around the deputy squad leader, Zhao Pengfei.
They already knew that this seemingly "mature" comrade was a veteran who had enlisted twice.
Naturally, people are curious about his past military experience and hope to get some guidance from him.
"Squad Leader Zhao, what unit and branch of the military were you in before?"
"Have you ever driven a tank? I've always wanted to know if tanks have rearview mirrors?"
"Old Soldier Zhao, have you ever seen a special forces soldier? How does one become a special forces soldier?"
"Squad leader, I heard that some units issue motorcycles to new recruits. Is that true? I've loved motorcycles since I was a child. Is there any chance I could get one?"
Zhao Pengfei looked at the young man who looked a lot like a motorcycle and gave him a white lie: "There's a chance. The unit you mentioned is called Motorized Infantry. As long as you go there, you'll be issued a motorcycle."
"Suzuki, Shinso, take your pick, we have all kinds of models."
"What about Ducati? I love Ducati!"
Someone nearby got excited, their eyes gleaming.
Zhao Pengfei laughed and thought to himself, "You look a lot like a Ducati."
But this period of silence gradually shaped his personality, making him more composed and reserved than before.
In terms of seniority, experience, knowledge, and overall perspective, Zhao Pengfei is more than qualified to be a company commander. In fact, Li Jiasheng's position as a special operations company commander was inherited from him.
So when you look at many issues from the perspective of someone who has been there, it's like having a god's-eye view.
This reminded him of the time when he was leading Qin Feng and his group, Qin Feng had a strange feeling of "re-enlisting".
Because Qin Feng is more mature than others, knows more, and understands more.
And now, Zhao Pengfei is also experiencing this feeling of being forced to stand out from the crowd.
"Ducati has them, but not many; only the best and most outstanding performers can get them."
"I see, I understand now, Old Soldier Zhao!"
The recruits' faces were filled with respect and smiles.
Zhao Pengfei would answer any questions or concerns they had about joining the army without reservation.
Nowadays, college students have almost become the mainstream for joining the army; half of the soldiers in the sixth platoon are college graduates who have joined the army.
Some genuinely love the military and want to become soldiers; others are drawn by the opportunity to shoot guns, drive tanks, ride motorcycles, fly planes, enjoy tuition reductions during military service, and improve their physical fitness.
Whatever the reason, those who bravely take this step and enter the military camp are true men among men!
Coincidentally, a few days ago he saw a news report in the hospital about a stampede caused by celebrities at an airport, which posed a threat to public safety and raised questions about the ideals and aspirations of young people.
The report also asked whether the young people in this area were beyond saving.
But in Zhao Pengfei's view, only a small portion of them are beyond saving.
The young people of Yan are passionate, love their motherland, and are willing to actively contribute to its development.
Back then, Lei*, Dong**, and Yang** were idols of the older generation of soldiers and role models of the military spirit.
However, Zhao Pengfei knew that there was an idol in the war zone who was admired and pursued by many young officers and soldiers.
Qin Feng!
Chief of Military Training Department!
The youngest colonel to reach the rank of Grandmaster!
That was Zhao Pengfei's pride, and the greatest pride of his military career, and even his entire life!
