My Military Career in a Parallel World

Attracted by the movement on Lu Ming's side, the others soon noticed the quilt on the bed.

Walking to the nearest bed, the second platoon leader reached out and touched the quilt on the bed. After confirming that there was no problem with the quilt, he turned his head and looked at Li Gang, frowning and said, "What's going on, Li Gang, is it possible that you, the kid, didn't follow the rules and got yourself into trouble?!"

Before Li Gang could answer, the platoon leader Zhao Hongbin next to him was unhappy: "Hey, Lao Li, how can you talk like that? When have the soldiers in our third company ever cheated?"

The second platoon leader subconsciously wanted to refute, but he suddenly stopped when the words came to his lips.

If they were alone with the platoon leaders, it would be fine if they exchanged a few words, but now the commander of the third company was standing right beside them, and he was their immediate superior...

What's more, the instructors of the new recruit company are all from the third company. Even if he had a thousand guts, he wouldn't dare to squeeze Zhao Hongbin in this situation...

The second platoon leader decisively chose to follow his heart.

As for the third platoon leader, this guy had been waiting on the side to watch the fun. When he saw the second platoon leader doing what he wanted, he immediately shifted his attention elsewhere.

"Well, I told you there would be a surprise later."

Coming up to Lu Ming, Ge Hongtao smiled and joked as he saw the surprised expression still on his face.

Lu Ming looked at Ge Hongtao with a slightly resentful look and said, "Captain, if you want to see me make a fool of myself, just say so. There's no need to make it so complicated."

"Okay, okay, I just saw that you were too tired these days, so I wanted to make you happy."

Lu Ming really couldn't be happy about the kindness of his company commander.

As an instructor, it is his job to pay attention to the psychological condition of new recruits and check the company's internal affairs.

As a result, Jiang Chen, a freak who could look down on veteran soldiers when folding quilts, appeared in Class 5, but the instructor in charge of housekeeping was completely unaware of it. If this wasn't his mistake at work, then what was it?

"Okay, everyone goes through this. These new recruits are too noisy. We can sort them out later."

After whispering a few words of comfort to Lu Ming, Ge Hongtao called out to Li Gang standing beside him, "Li Gang!"

"To!"

"Call out your precious deputy monitor and show him to everyone!"

"Yes!"

Li Gang agreed, turned around and shouted to the team at the door: "Jiang Chen!"

"To!"

"Come in!"

"Yes!"

Li Gang brought Jiang Chen to the company commander and instructor and said with a smile, "Company commander, instructor, this is our fifth squad's current acting deputy squad leader Jiang Chen. He folded all these quilts himself."

Lu Ming took his eyes off the quilt, looked Jiang Chen up and down, and said in a surprised tone: "It seems that I still underestimated you. I just thought you were a college soldier, but I didn't expect you to adapt to the environment and learn skills so quickly. Not only have you become a deputy squad leader within a few days of joining the army, but you also showed me your skills in folding quilts."

"Not bad, not bad. Do your best in the army in the future!"

Patting Jiang Chen's shoulder gently, Lu Ming's slight sense of loss disappeared and a smile appeared on his face.

As a soldier recruited by him personally, he knew Jiang Chen's situation very well.

Judging from the current situation, Jiang Chen has obviously decided to stay in the army. Compared with this, that little bit of loss is nothing.

"Yes!" Jiang Chen was more or less aware of Lu Ming's care for him. Upon hearing that, he immediately stood up and saluted.

"Okay, you've only been doing political work for a few days, why are you talking like Lao He, speaking at length?"

Seeing that the two had almost finished their conversation, Ge Hongtao took the initiative to change the subject.

"Well, Jiang Chen, in order to ensure the fairness, impartiality and openness of the housekeeping evaluation, I need you to fold the quilt on the spot. Is that a problem?!"

This was the real purpose of Ge Hongtao asking Li Gang to call Jiang Chen in.

Although this is just an ordinary internal management evaluation, it still needs to be convincing.

Although the third platoon leader never spoke, he might have had similar thoughts as the second platoon leader.

After all, if you didn't see it with your own eyes, who would believe it if a new recruit who had just joined the army for less than a week could fold his quilt like this?

They are not stupid. Jiang Chen has been the deputy monitor for a few days. No one thought about it in this regard before, but now looking back, how can they not understand what is going on.

"I was wondering why Zhao Hongbin and Li Gang, two guys who only do things for the sake of profit, suddenly changed their ways and decided on the candidate for deputy squad leader so early. It seems like this is what's going on." The second platoon leader glanced at Zhao Hongbin and Li Gang who were calm and composed, and made a judgment in his mind.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Things developed just as he expected. Jiang Chen untied the wrinkled quilt that he had touched before and began to fold it on the spot.

Twenty minutes later, a bed of brand new, flat square, octagonal, and perfect tofu blocks appeared before everyone.

"Report to the company commander and instructor, the new recruit Jiang Chen has completed the mission, please give instructions!" Jiang Chen stood at attention and saluted and said loudly.

"Good! Very good! Excellent! A new recruit can achieve this. You deserve the position of deputy squad leader!" Ge Hongtao patted Jiang Chen's shoulder and laughed.

With Ge Hongtao's personal praise, Jiang Chen's position as deputy squad leader would be secure as long as he didn't fall behind too much in subsequent physical training.

Listening to the company commander's praise, Li Gang's heart was also filled with joy.

These are the soldiers he led, so naturally he also deserves some credit for the achievements!

There is no need to say much about the results of this housekeeping evaluation. It is basically a foregone conclusion that Class 5 will win the mobile red flag.

Unless Class 4 can also produce a new recruit like Jiang Chen...

As soon as this thought came to mind, it was suppressed by the second platoon leader.

The fourth squad is part of the second platoon. If there really were such soldiers under his command, how could he, as the platoon leader, not know about it? !

The fifth shift was delayed for a while, and after confirming that the quilt was folded by Jiang Chen, Ge Hongtao and the others prepared to leave.

"Captain, instructor, walk slowly!"

"Get out of here, kid. It's not a big deal. Is it necessary to laugh like that? Your mouth is almost stretching to your ears!" After scolding Li Gang with a smile, Ge Hongtao led his men out of the Class 5 dormitory.

After watching the evaluation team leave, Li Gang couldn't stop smiling.

"Haha, very good, Jiang Chen, our class was able to get first place in the housekeeping evaluation this time, and you are the main contributor!

How about this, tell me what you want to eat, and if it's under fifty yuan, the squad leader will reimburse you!"

Although the results of the housekeeping evaluation have not been announced yet, Li Gang is very clear that the mobile red flag must belong to their class.

"Hehe, well, can I choose by myself, squad leader?" Jiang Chen also laughed, and took the opportunity to push his ideas further, suggesting that he should go to the supermarket with Li Gang.

"No, new recruits must get approval from the company commander before going out. Even if they just want to leave the camp, they must get the consent of the platoon leader." Li Gang refused without even thinking.

"Squad leader, I don't want to go either. The key is that you always buy the wrong things. Last time I clearly wanted Pepsi, but you bought Coca-Cola..." Jiang Chen took the opportunity to make a fuss.

"Uh..." Li Gang was speechless for a moment. No matter what the reason was, he was indeed at fault last time.

"Okay... wait a minute, I'll try to ask, but I can't guarantee it!"

Li Gang hesitated for a while, thinking that going to the supermarket was not a big deal, so he nodded and agreed.

"Thank you, squad leader!" Jiang Chen was delighted when he heard that.

"Squad leader, squad leader, what about us, what about us?!" Luo Ming and others on the side had already become impatient after hearing this, and they spoke up one by one.

"You..." Li Gang glanced at a few people and was about to scold them out of habit.

However, thinking about this housekeeping evaluation, although Jiang Chen took the majority, the performances of the others were indeed good. Even if they had no merits, they had worked hard.

"How about this, after the news broadcast is over, I'll ask the instructor for an hour of computer room time and play with you for an hour!"

"Really?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up.

If Li Gang hadn’t told them, they wouldn’t have known that there were computers in the recruit company!

Today's mobile phones have limited functions, and if you want to play games or have fun, you still have to use a computer. Compared to distributing mobile phones, surfing the Internet is obviously more likely to arouse people's interest.

"What good would it do me to lie to you?"

"Wuhu~"

Everyone cheered in unison.

Chu Fei seemed to have thought of something and asked quickly: "Class monitor, don't you have class tonight?"

Giving the guy a blank look, Li Gang explained, "Tomorrow is Monday. We will definitely have a meeting tonight to summarize and arrange the work for next week. We also need to summarize the results of the housekeeping evaluation and issue the mobile red flags. With so many things waiting, the instructor won't be able to teach you for long even if he teaches you."

After receiving a positive answer, everyone was completely relieved.

Just when everyone in Class 5 was excited and happy about being able to go to the computer room to surf the Internet, suddenly a furious scolding came from Class 4 next door.

"Zhang Zijun!"

"To!"

"What's going on! Ah! What do you do as a squad leader?

You have been a soldier for so many years, and this is not the first time you have led new soldiers. How can you be fooled by a new soldier? ! !

Once you become a squad leader, how will you manage the soldiers under you? "

The voice was so loud that everyone could hear it clearly even through the wall. As for the owner of the voice, Jiang Chen was even more familiar with him because he had just heard him praise him.

"Be quiet! Jiang Chen, you take care of the class discipline. I'll go see what's going on!" After saying this, Li Gang walked out quickly.

"Deputy squad leader..." Chu Fei looked at Jiang Chen, hesitant to speak.

Jiang Chen knew what these people were up to without even listening.

Watching the fun is a gene engraved in the bones of all Chinese people.

Jiang Chen is no exception.

"Shh." Jiang Chen placed his index finger between his lips, then pointed to the wall near Class 4. Everyone immediately understood.

A group of ten people came to the wall and stood with their backs against it. All of them had serious expressions on their faces. I didn't know why I thought they had gotten into trouble and were being punished by the monitor.

Time goes back to five minutes ago.

Ge Hongtao and his team came to Class 4 to check their housekeeping. At first, there were no surprises. The situation in Class 4 was similar to that in other classes, and there were generally no problems with hygiene.

After all, everyone was cleaning according to the squad leader's instructions, and at most there were some differences in details.

The condition of the quilts was just so-so, not much better than other classes, but not too bad either.

The freshly washed quilt of the fourth squad leader was also managed to be folded into a tofu block thanks to his efforts.

Overall it's pretty satisfactory.

However, when platoon leader Zhao Hongbin inspected the balcony, he discovered a problem.

He found a cell phone under the window sill extending from the outside of the balcony! !

By the way, this recruit who hid the phone was quite cunning. He got the strong double-sided tape from somewhere and stuck the phone case to the wall under the balcony. When he needed to use the phone, he only needed to take it out of the case, and put it back in when he didn't need it...

If it weren't for chance, Zhao Hongbin would not have discovered that there was a mobile phone hidden in this place.

Then, there was the incident where Ge Hongtao got angry at the fourth squad leader.

If you make a mistake, you must admit it; if you get beaten, you must stand at attention!

The squad leader of the fourth squad was a veteran with many years of service and was brave enough to take responsibility for his actions. Facing the anger of the company commander, he could only lower his head and endure it silently.

Not only him, but even the second platoon leader next to him was also caught in the act and had Ge Hongtao spit on his face. In fact, compared to the fourth squad leader, the second platoon leader was obviously scolded more badly.

It has always been like this in the army, with one level suppressing the next level. When a soldier makes a mistake, the leader will not punish the soldier directly, nor will he go around the company commander or platoon leader to find his squad leader. Instead, he will go to his next level leader.

For example: When the regiment commander finds a certain problem, he will go to the battalion commander of this soldier, the battalion commander will go to the company commander, the company commander will go to the platoon leader, the platoon leader will go to the squad leader, and the squad leader will finally report the result to the soldier.

This is true for rewards and punishments.

In the end, it was the instructor who stepped forward to act as a peacemaker.

"Class monitor Zhang, don't even think about your class participating in this housekeeping competition. However, we should criticize and praise where necessary. Your class's overall housekeeping is still pretty good..."

After some polite words, Lu Ming announced the final punishment result.

"Before the meeting tonight, prepare a 5,000-word self-criticism. First, conduct a self-criticism in front of all the company cadres at the weekly meeting, and then conduct a self-criticism in front of the entire company on Monday.

Second Platoon Leader, you too, a three thousand word self-criticism, is that okay?"

Ge Hongtao didn't say much about how Lu Ming was treated.

After all, how this matter is ultimately handled is up to Lu Ming.

"Yes, instructor!" Upon hearing this, the two men stood at attention and saluted as if they had been pardoned.

However, although they said it simply, both of them had sorrowful expressions on their faces.

This is also the norm in the army. They are not afraid of corporal punishment or extra training, but they are afraid of writing summaries and self-criticisms...

One is 5,000 words, the other is 3,000 words, and they have to be submitted before the meeting in the evening. Just thinking about it is enough to make people worry.

When the inspection was over and they were leaving, the second platoon leader deliberately fell behind the team. Before leaving, he suddenly turned around and glared at the fourth squad leader fiercely, a look that seemed to be able to kill.

Even though the company commander scolded harshly just now, in fact, it was over after he finished scolding. But it was different for the instructor. He not only had to write a self-criticism, but also had to give them a lesson.

He was cheated so badly that it would be a miracle if the second platoon leader didn't punish him after class.
