C1949 The Old Squad Leader Wasn't Someone to be Trifled with
"New guy? Hurry up and wash the dishes. It's time for dinner. "
When Alvin brought along a small amount of luggage and followed the troops to his station, the class monitor of the cookhouse only glanced at him and arranged for him to do work.
The soldier who brought Alvin here immediately turned around and left after arriving there. He did not introduce the two parties and did not take care of them at all.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and do your work. The new recruits nowadays are really so stupid. " The old squad leader, Alvin, was still standing there blankly. He immediately became somewhat dissatisfied.
"Okay." Alvin reacted and put his luggage on the ground. After that, he went to wash the vegetables.
Seeing Alvin move, the old squad leader stopped complaining. However, he still did not show any kindness to Alvin.
Alvin was born poor, so he had suffered a lot. He was not afraid of suffering. Besides, he usually lived alone. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to wash the vegetables and cut the vegetables.
The old squad leader saw that Alvin was very agile and his face looked better. After that, he arranged for Alvin to do other things. Alvin did not complain at all. He would do whatever the old squad leader arranged. Furthermore, he would be able to do it very quickly.
Alvin had already thought it through. Since he had already come in, it was impossible for him to leave in a short period of time. Therefore, he could only choose to stay here.
After knowing that there was no hope of leaving, Alvin relaxed his heart. In any case, he wasn't in a hurry to make a contribution at the beginning. He was not like Bill, who wanted to be a lord. Besides wanting to own his own spaceship, Alvin didn't have any other pursuits to begin with. It was actually not bad to think about it in the cookhouse. At least he wouldn't have to worry about food in the future, right?
Therefore, Alvin's current state of mind was very good. He did not complain. He was also very serious about the tasks assigned by the old squad leader. Furthermore, he did quite well.
Noontime soon arrived. Groups of soldiers entered the canteen and prepared to eat.
"What's the noise? Line up! Line up! Otherwise, there won't be any food!" When the old squad leader saw that many soldiers were having fun and making a mess, he immediately berated them.
Originally, Alvin thought that the soldiers would not listen to the old squad leader. After all, the old squad leader was just a cookhouse soldier. Compared to regular soldiers, he was still much worse.
However, what Alvin did not expect was that most of the soldiers actually quieted down after hearing the old squad leader's words. Furthermore, they obediently lined up and showed a lot of respect on their faces.
Of course, there were a few soldiers who did not believe the old squad leader's words. They acted as if they did not hear the old squad leader's words and continued to speak loudly. They also did not line up.
These soldiers seemed to be new recruits. Recently, the entire country had been recruiting soldiers, so there were quite a number of new recruits in every line.
"You guys don't have to eat today." The cookhouse squad leader, Alvin's current superior, said to the new recruits who were still talking and laughing.
"Why?"
"Yeah, who do you think you are? You are just a cook, yet you are still showing off in front of us."
"You said you are not allowed to eat, so you are not allowed to eat. You are just a cook, how can you control us?"
"Do you know what kind of military we are? You're just a cook, what right do you have to not let us eat? "
Those few recruits were clearly very dissatisfied. When they opened their mouths and shut their mouths, they would 'cook'. Obviously, in their hearts, they looked down on the cookhouse soldiers. However, reality was indeed like this. The cookhouse soldiers were among all the military types. They were indeed one of the lowest military units. These new recruits look down on the cookhouse soldiers. That was normal.
Alvin's superior did not respond to the words of the new recruits. Instead, he ordered the soldiers who had lined up to serve the food.
When the soldiers saw a cookhouse soldier putting on airs for them, they became even more dissatisfied. They wanted to say something, but the old soldier behind them pulled them back, wanting them to speak less.
However, these soldiers had just entered the military camp and had yet to familiarize themselves with the military discipline in the camp. They even had some arrogance in their hearts. What happened just now, they felt that... It was this cookhouse soldier who didn't give them face and actually treated them as air... Furthermore, he had even threatened to not give them any food. This made them feel that... They had lost face in front of their comrades. If they did not regain their face... They were unhappy.
"Hey, I'm talking to you. Are you deaf?"
"Yeah, you're just a small cookhouse soldier. Why are you pretending?"
"Old man, if you don't apologize to us, we'll beat you up!"
A few new recruits shouted at the old cookhouse soldier's squad leader. From the looks of it, they seemed to want to attack at any time.
Alvin looked like he was really going to attack. He quickly blocked in front and said, "What do you want?"
The old cookhouse soldier looked at Alvin in surprise. However, he continued to serve food for the other soldiers as if he did not see what was happening around him.
As for the other veterans, some were advising the new soldiers, and some were just watching the show. They would see the scene in front of them once or twice every year, and some of the new soldiers would always behave like this.
"Where did you come from, kid? Get lost!"
"If you don't get out of the way, I'll beat you up!"
"What's wrong with these cookhouse soldiers now? Are they all so insensible?!"
Those few recruits obviously did not take Alvin seriously. They kept threatening and threatening him. They even rolled up their sleeves and were ready to hit him.
Although Alvin was a little nervous, he was not too afraid. Because he was an orphan, he had been mocked by his peers since he was young. Therefore, he had fought quite a few times. To him, fighting was... He also had experience in this area. Although he was facing quite a number of people now... However... He wasn't too afraid. After all, this was the army... Could they beat him to death?
"What are you doing? What are you doing?"
At this moment, a few people walked in from outside. Among them, the lowest rank was a captain, and there was even a general rank.
Seeing these people come in, the soldiers all stood up straight. They saluted and greeted the people who were about to fight Alvin. At this moment, they couldn't care less about Alvin and his superior. They also stood up straight and saluted.
When Alvin saw these few chiefs, he was a little nervous and didn't know what to do.
On the contrary, Alvin's superior did not show any reaction. He was still expressionless and his expression did not change at all.
"I asked what you guys are doing. Is the training in the morning not enough? Have you guys not used up all your energy? " The man with the rank of General berated the new recruits.
"Head Chief, this cookhouse soldier doesn't give us food to eat" A new recruit said, clearly wanting to file a complaint.
"Then don't eat!" Who knew that not only did the general not speak up for them. All of you, get out of here and run thirty laps around the field. Don't eat today's meal "
"Chief..." The recruits were shocked. They had never thought that their chief would say such a thing. Not only did he not speak up for them, he even wanted to punish them.
That was thirty laps. In the morning, half a day, they had already been trained to a point where they could barely breathe. After all, they were all new recruits, and they could not adapt to it all at once. And now, they were so hungry that they felt uncomfortable. They were not allowed to eat. Yet they were still allowed to run. This was going to kill them.
"Hurry up and go!" That general said with a gloomy face, clearly not showing any pity for them.
"Yes." The new recruits knew that at this time, there was no point in saying anything else. In the military camp, they had to obey orders.
The new recruits turned around and prepared to leave. However, before they could take two steps, they heard the general's voice again. "Come back!"
The recruits were delighted. They thought that the general had changed his mind and was just scaring them. Thus, they were all happy and turned back to the general.
"The few of you, apologize to the old squad leader and then go for a run!" The general said.
"Ah." The recruits did not expect the general to call them back to apologize to the cookhouse captain.
Apologizing to the cookhouse soldiers was something they could not accept. When they faced the cookhouse soldiers, they always had a sense of superiority. But now, they had to apologize to the cookhouse soldiers. It was very difficult for them to do so.
"Ah what? Hurry up?" The general said angrily.
"I'm sorry." The recruits had no choice but to apologize. Otherwise, the punishment from the general would be even more severe.
"Didn't they eat? His voice was so soft? Be louder!" The general was obviously not satisfied with their attitude and asked them to do it again.
It was just that they did not eat.
A few of the new recruits were cursing in their hearts, but they did not dare to show it. They could only apologize again. This time, their voices were much louder than before.
"Alright, get out! In the future, be more honest here!" The general said.2
"Yes!" After a few new recruits saluted, they turned around and left.
At this moment, these new recruits also understood in their hearts. This cookhouse soldier was probably not ordinary, or else... The general would not speak up for him. When the cookhouse soldier spoke, the other veterans... None of them dared to complain. All of them obediently went to line up. Obviously, they also knew that this cookhouse soldier was not to be trifled with. Or perhaps they had suffered a loss before.
However, it was just a cookhouse soldier, what kind of impressive background could he have?
