The life of the military academy started like this. Every day, the dormitory, the playground, the canteen, and the classrooms had 5 hours of training, and the time for each meal was only [-] minutes.For a long time, Zhaoshi couldn't remember what he ate and wrote that day, probably he ate too fast and didn't have time to experience the taste.The curriculum of the military academy is divided into disciplines and technical subjects.The subjects are all political and military theory, which Zhaoshi is very familiar with.He particularly liked the teachers in the political theory class. Some of them were Communist Party members and some were KMT members. Although their political views were different, they were all seeking ways to save the country and the people.When he has a little experience, he always takes time to write to Xiaozhen to tell his understanding of these propositions.

The art subjects often practice shooting, marching, equestrianism, etc. They have to practice for two hours in the morning and afternoon, and there is an hour of morning practice every morning.Zhaoshi intends to exercise himself. When he is on duty at night, he replaces the one-hour fixed-point whistle with others' two-hour mobile whistle, and runs while on duty.One day, after morning duty, he felt that his legs were heavy, but he gritted his teeth and insisted on keeping up with his classmates, and his breathing became heavier and heavier.A pair of black riding boots followed him, always accompanying him and helping him stabilize his steps.Zhaoshi didn't need to look up to know that this was instructor Yan Ming, the director of the training department.After insisting on running the prescribed amount, Instructor Yan patted Shih on the shoulder, "Did you run again last night?" Zhaoshi nodded, and Instructor Yan smiled, "It's a good thing to work hard, don't let the seedlings grow, physical strength also needs to be practiced slowly." "Yes" stood at attention according to the stone, and gave a military salute.Since entering school, Zhao Shi has basically never seen Instructor Yan smile, and the training requirements are extremely strict. Even the officers who have graduated and become freshman platoon commanders or company commanders have not missed the training.Today, not only did he not criticize, but he gave a lot of comfort, which made Zhaoshi very grateful.

The lunch that day was stir-fried peppers. Zhaoshi grew up in Shanghai and couldn’t eat spicy food. After barely eating two mouthfuls, he was sweating all over. He pushed his dish to Jiang Pu from Hunan, and made a bowl of rice with soup to swallow.During the afternoon practice break, Li Guofeng asked him: "Are you hungry? There are sand river noodles for sale at the school gate, let's go have a bowl?" The two slipped towards the school gate.After eating a bowl of sand river noodles, the students on the playground have already assembled.This class was a company platoon training, the company commander Cheng Nan was furious, Zhao Shi and Li Guofeng immediately admitted their mistakes and apologized.But Company Commander Cheng didn't intend to let them go, and asked them to stretch out their hands and hit each of them ten times.Zhaoshi obeyed obediently, but Li Guofeng grabbed his hand, "Company commander, we have already admitted our mistakes and apologized, why should we be punished?" Can’t you be punished?” The surrounding students nodded one after another, and Li Guofeng continued to raise his head and said, “First of all, when you emphasized discipline before, you didn’t say that you would be beaten for being late. Moreover, you said that you should take the initiative to admit your mistakes for violating discipline, and we took the initiative to admit your mistakes. You should be punished lightly. Besides, you are using the method of punishing children, which is not suitable for revolutionary soldiers." After Li Guofeng finished speaking, some students whispered, thinking that what he said was also reasonable.At this time, everyone heard the sound of instructor Yan's riding boots getting closer, and everyone immediately silenced and stood still.Zhaoshi and Li Guofeng felt tight, it was over, and instructor Yan knew that they probably couldn't escape today no matter what.Company Commander Cheng reported the situation just now. Instructor Yan frowned and said, "Continue training, and discuss it in the evening self-study."

During evening self-study, company commander Cheng Nan organized everyone to discuss what happened during the day in the dormitory. Instructor Yan and instructor Sui Jingyuan from the political department came, followed by instructor Yun Daiying from the political department.The instructor's politics class is the favorite of the students. Zhaoshi has always had outstanding grades in politics, and the instructors in the political department appreciate him very much. As soon as Sui Jingyuan entered the classroom, he looked at Zhaoshi and smiled: "I didn't expect that, you good student I also caused this kind of trouble.” Zhaoshi bowed his head in embarrassment, and Sui’s instructor said, “Revolutionary soldiers, don’t bow your head if you have nothing to do. Tell me first, what do you think?” “Yes.” Zhaoshi stood up, held his head high, "In this matter, Li Guofeng and I violated discipline first, and I am willing to accept punishment, but, but" "But what?" Instructor Yan asked, "But, I think what Li Guofeng said makes sense." Cheng Lianchang laughed, "Well, I think You stretched out your hand obediently today, but Li Guofeng withdrew it after a few words." Zhaoshi felt a little embarrassed again, and didn't bow his head this time, but blushed. "I'm used to it. My sister-in-law is strict. I am often beaten for breaking the rules. However, a housewife like my sister-in-law also knows that if she admits her mistakes and has a good attitude, she will be given a lighter punishment." Li Guofeng stood up at this time and said, "I disagree. I was afraid, so I often skipped school. So I think the company commander’s method today will affect the revolutionary sentiment of the revolutionary soldiers.” Instructor Yan looked at the other students again, “What’s your opinion?” Some students said that when setting the rules, they should It should be stipulated in advance how to punish in case of violation, otherwise the executor will be at a loss.Some students said that a student like Zhao Shi who has always followed the rules can be exempted from occasional violations, while a student like Li Guofeng who often makes troubles cannot be given a lighter punishment.Everyone had a heated discussion for a while, and the final result of the discussion was that he was exempted from punishment this time, and that if he committed the crime again next time, he would be severely punished.Instructor Sui will report to the Political Department to write down all the school regulations and punishment regulations, and make them public in the whole school.At this time, Zhaoshi stood up again and said, "Instructor Yan, I have a question for you." Instructor Yan nodded kindly at this time and said, "Please tell me." How to deal with disobeying orders. Because the instructor said on the first day of school that soldiers should obey orders as their bounden duty, so they should obey the commander's orders unconditionally. But the instructor also said that the new army of our national revolution wants officers and soldiers to be equal. This obedience and Isn’t equality a contradiction?” After Zhaoshi asked the question, he was still a little uneasy, but he found that the two instructors were all looking at him with encouragement and approval.Instructor Yan said: "Student Shen Zhaoshi asked a good question. The obedience we talk about here refers to the absolute obedience to training and combat orders on the battlefield and training ground, which is the so-called prohibition. Equality refers to equality in life. Everyone eats is Two dishes and one soup, our instructor's dishes are the same, and they are cooked on the same stove. Besides, like the discussion tonight, every speaker is equal and has the right to express his views." At this time , Mr. Yun Daiying also stood up "Yes, everyone, don't think that our discussion tonight is about the facts. Tonight is actually a political class. The content of our class is democracy. Today's matter itself is a trivial matter, but Through the discussion, I hope everyone can realize that in a democratic society, everyone is equal and can express their views and opinions on things boldly and calmly. We train hard in the military academy for the sake of being able to revolutionize in the future Success, build a democratic society." After the two instructors finished speaking, everyone applauded desperately.

The meeting ended, and the students went back to the dormitory one after another, but Mr. Yun Daiying waved to Zhaoshi. He looked at Zhaoshi and said, "You are the second son of the Shen family in Shanghai!" Zhaoshi nodded with a smile.Mr. Yun looked at him and smiled and said: "Well, I know you. Although you are a young master, you have advocated a new life and equality for everyone since you were a child." Zhaoshi looked at him puzzled, and Mr. Yun smiled: "Why? You I don’t know if I wrote the recommendation letter for you to come to the military academy?” Zhaoshi was surprised, Xiaozhen helped him get the recommendation letter for him to come to the military academy, but he didn’t know that Xiaozhen could find Mr. Yun Daiying, he was excited Get up: "Sir, do you know Xiaozhen?" Mr. Yun nodded in agreement, "She is a kind girl. I used to borrow her house for a meeting when I was in Wuhan. Her husband is an officer, so it will be safer." Then he said: "It's not easy for her, but she is smart and eager to learn. She also told me that she had the opportunity to study and study because you taught her to read and write." Zhaoshi asked: "So, do you know what our relationship is?"

"Oh, isn't she your distant cousin?" Zhaoshi shook his head: "Her background is more pitiful than you know. She was bought by my sister-in-law to be my elder brother's concubine, but my elder brother ran away from home. I never went back. My sister-in-law saw how pitiful she was, so she helped him find someone to marry. Unexpectedly, her life was still unsatisfactory." Mr. Yun said: "In this way, you really said it by Xiaozhen, Xiaoxiao All ages are equal, otherwise, in a family like yours, it would be quite difficult for you to teach him how to read and write." Zhaoshi has always been unwilling to let others think that a family like theirs must be a feudal class, which is unreasonable .Immediately interrupted Mr. Yun, "In fact, our family is not what you imagined. I taught her to read, and my sister-in-law agreed. She still has a lot of housework to do. It is really not easy to find time to study. "Mr. Yun understood what he meant, didn't say anything, and told him to go back and rest quickly.

When the lights-out signal sounded, Zhaoshi felt that the moon was extraordinarily bright that night, shining in the dormitory, shining on these more than 30 young faces, he was very proud in his heart, proud that he could be a member of this place, no matter what he faced in the future All the difficulties and sacrifices will be worth it. He feels that he will carry the whole country together with the young people here.Originally, he felt that the only disadvantage here was that it was too far away from home. Tonight, when he learned that Mr. Yun knew Xiaozhen, this military academy seemed to be connected with his home in Shanghai.Zhaoshi was lying on the bed, thinking of his lover far away, dreaming of a bright and bright future, so excited that he couldn't fall asleep.
