Chapter 246 Take this flag and embark on a new journey
"What, what? Why am I the one cleaning the toilet again?"
When Li Jiasheng heard the task assigned to him, he was struck by lightning.
Qi Meng next to him was always laughing and even gave him the nickname of a professional night soil collector.
Li Jiasheng immediately quit and started shouting loudly without caring whether he was in the queue or not.
"Brother Feng, Brother Feng, can you change my position?"
This name is usually only used by the brothers in the recruit company.
Li Jiasheng's sudden move immediately caused some people who were not in the know to start whispering.
After all, forming cliques and calling someone "big brother" is not allowed in the army.
It's okay to joke about it in private, but it's a bit inappropriate in formal occasions.
In order to avoid misunderstanding, Qin Feng could only cough and speak in a slightly serious tone.
"Li Jiasheng, in future formal occasions, address me by your title!"
"Um... yes, Captain!"
Li Jiasheng only realized it belatedly.
But then he felt wronged again.
"Company Commander, can you please not make me go to the toilet to clean out the excrement? I have mysophobia, a severe case of it. Now I am afraid of the sight of a dry toilet."
Li Jiasheng's words caused everyone to burst into laughter.
In the army, the word "cleansing" does not exist at all.
But everyone is afraid of cleaning dry toilets.
Qin Feng also smiled: "I let you go because you have done it in the recruit company and you are very experienced."
"I can prove this!" At this time, Yang Kaifeng in the team suddenly raised his hand and shouted.
"I was supervising him at the time. He was so skillful, scooping the little yellow basin clean in no time."
Zhao Pengfei also laughed and joked, "Li Jiasheng, you're the most experienced at this job. No one else has been down there before, so just accept your fate. When we finish this job, I'll treat you to instant noodles."
When Li Jiasheng heard the word "instant noodles", his face immediately turned pale.
The little yellow basin that night and the scene of drinking noodle soup from the edge of the basin immediately came to my mind.
Amidst the booing, Qin Feng said with a smile, "You see, the public's eyes are sharp. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. This job belongs to you."
Li Jiasheng felt so aggrieved that he almost cried.
When I was in the recruit company, they tricked me into digging out manure.
After I left the company, he tricked me into digging out manure.
You guys are so bad!
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Qin Feng changed the subject and said, "However, I can send you a helper this time. You can choose to supervise or you can choose to work together."
After hearing this, Li Jiasheng suddenly became stiff.
"Xu Tiancai!"
"Fuck!"
Xu Tiancai exclaimed in his heart, and shouted quickly.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow at Li Jiasheng: "Let Xu Tiancai help you. You must clean the cesspool in an hour. Can you do it?"
Li Jiasheng chuckled wickedly: "Don't worry, Captain, this job is easy. It won't take an hour, we can finish the task in half an hour!"
Qin Feng also found it funny to see Li Jiasheng's flexibility.
Back when he was in the recruit company, this guy took the initiative to resign as deputy squad leader.
The main reason is that I don’t want to be assigned to dig out manure.
Now that I'm here, I still can't escape this fate.
Qin Feng looked at everyone and said loudly, "Everyone hurry up. This time, the cleaning requirements must be met. The paint must show its true color, the iron must shine, and the tiles must be polished to a bright shine!"
"This is our last day here, and we must stand guard for the last time!"
"New troops will be moving in tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I don't want them to come and say that the previous ones stationed here were a bunch of slobs!"
"It's 2:15 now. Everything must be resolved before 3:15. I'll personally inspect it then. Dismissed!"
The order to disband was given and everyone quickly dispersed.
Everyone took their tools and started cleaning their assigned areas.
Although, many people here are new here.
But after spending these days together, everyone is still getting along very well.
Therefore, everyone worked extra hard and carefully during the last cleaning here.
At this time, Li Jiasheng raised his head tremblingly and came to the side of the miserable Xu Tiancai.
"Xu Tiancai, why are you still standing there like a telephone pole? Hurry back to the dormitory, grab your little yellow basin and follow me!"
Xu Tiancai was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
These days, he was trained like a dog by Zhao Pengfei.
Now, a new recruit with a limp is actually riding on his head.
This is intolerable. I am an officer!
It’s fine if Qin Feng doesn’t take me seriously, but why do you, a new recruit, dare to do that?
Just when Xu Tiancai was furious and ready to quit, Li Jiasheng easily controlled him with just one sentence.
"Why, you're afraid of getting dirty, or being tired, and you don't want to do it?"
"If you can't do it, I'll tell the company commander that you can't stay in the combat squad anymore and go do odd jobs in logistics. Or maybe I'll send you back to the Fourth Company to pull slop to feed the pigs?"
Xu Tiancai's face flushed red and his fists were clenched so tightly that they made cracking sounds.
But soon, he loosened his fist and compromised helplessly.
"Can you... give me two pairs of gloves?"
"Hahaha, don't worry, we have masks and gloves."
Li Jiasheng put his hand on his shoulder as if he were taking care of a younger brother. "Hurry up and get your little yellow basin. We have to hurry. I'll pass on all my experience and skills to you in a little while."
"This thing looks easy, but it's actually a science!"
"..."
Xu Tiancai's eyes twitched and he was speechless.
......
At this time, several soldiers were busy in the Steel Knife Company's honor room.
Trophies, medals and photos are being packed and boxed.
Everyone was very careful when packing. Not only were they wrapped in cloth, but they also stuffed newspapers into the boxes to prevent them from being bumped.
After all, we still have a long way to go. If we accidentally bump into the things left by these predecessors on the way, it would be a huge sin.
Both Ge Zhiyong and Guo Haitao were on site supervising, fearing that anything might go wrong during the packing process.
At this moment, Qin Feng also walked in from outside.
Looking at the two people's complicated and reluctant expressions, he said softly.
"Battalion Commander, Instructor?"
They both turned around, their eyes slightly red.
Ge Zhiyong rubbed his eyes and asked, "Have you made all the arrangements on your end?"
Qin Feng nodded: "We have already started to get busy. With so many more helpers, cleaning will be much easier."
Ge Zhiyong nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he looked with nostalgia at the tattered flag displayed in the glass cabinet in front of him.
The flag was wrinkled, yellowed and blackened, and was basically rotten beyond recognition.
But you can vaguely see the vigorous and powerful word "big knife" on it.
Ge Zhiyong said steadily: "Qin Feng, do you remember the question I asked you during the joining ceremony?"
"remember."
"Tell me, how many people are there in our Steel Knife Company?"
Qin Feng took a deep breath and answered in a loud voice: "The Steel Blade Company has been established for 78 years. During these 78 years, a total of 7,984 people have become members of the Steel Blade Company, and 4,324 of them have sacrificed their lives for the country!"
Guo Haitao also asked: "Qin Feng, tell me, what is the pride of the Steel Blade Company!"
Qin Feng said solemnly: "Some companies are proud of having a general, and some companies are proud of having a combat hero!"
"But the pride of the Steel Blade Company is the most sacred of all soldiers, because it comes from ourselves!"
"As the 8,000th soldier of the Steel Blade Company, I will always remember all the veterans who sacrificed their lives in the history of the 78th Company. Without them, there would be no glory for the Steel Blade Company today, and there would be no Steel Blade Combined Battalion today!"
Qin Feng's words were sonorous and powerful.
Several veterans who were packing in the Hall of Honor all stopped what they were doing.
He looked at Qin Feng with an emotion that was both excited and indescribable.
They seemed to see a beam of light on Qin Feng, an extremely dazzling and brilliant light.
Ge Zhiyong and Guo Haitao turned around together, put their hands on his shoulders, their eyes full of expectation.
"Qin Feng, the predecessor of our Steel Knife Company was called the Big Knife Company. And that flag was also the first flag of our company."
"Under the erosion of long years and fierce wars, countless martyrs sacrificed their lives to preserve it intact."
"Throughout history, there have been few troops that have been able to preserve their first flag to this day. This is the honor of the Steel Knife Company, and even more so the honor of every one of us."
The two men smiled expectantly. "Go, Qin Feng, go and put this flag away. It's time for us to take it with us and embark on a new journey!"
Qin Feng nodded vigorously, with reverence and admiration.
Step by step, I walked towards the weathered flag where the souls of countless martyrs rest...
