My Military Career in a Parallel World

Ten minutes later, when all the recruits had called their families, Li Gang collected everyone's cell phones again, took the things he had found out before, and went to the baggage warehouse downstairs to register them.

As soon as Li Gang left, the new recruits who stayed in the dormitory started whispering.

The one with the most resentment is undoubtedly Chu Fei.

"It's over. I told my girlfriend that I would text her every day. Now my phone is gone. Isn't this the end..."

Chu Fei was not the only one with a sad face. Li Qiang, Zhang Meng, Luo Ming and others were not much better.

"Ah! I only brought two packs of cigarettes when I came here, and I was thinking of smoking them slowly in the recruit company. Now, I don't have a single pack left!"

Luo Ming threw himself heavily onto the bed and let out a wail.

Li Qiang and Zhang Meng, two heavy smokers, had similar expressions. Thinking that they wouldn't be able to smoke for the next three months, their brows were twisted into a knot.

The others are a little better. Although they also smoke, their addiction is not as strong as these guys, so they can just endure it.

The little fat boy Sun Weichen was eating happily, with an apple in each hand and a cucumber in the other.

He had brought too many things with him. Apart from those packaged items that could be stored for a long time in the warehouse, there were also a lot of fruits and opened snacks.

Although everyone helped to eliminate some of them before, there are still quite a few left.

I thought the monitor was just saying it casually and wouldn't really check these things, but I didn't expect...

When Li Gang left just now, he gave a strict order that everything must be eaten before going to bed at night.

There was no other way, Sun Weichen could only hurry up and destroy the remaining things.

Fortunately, the five kilometers he had just run had helped him digest some of the food in his stomach. Although there was a lot of food left, he could finish it if he tried hard.

As for distributing it to others?

Looking at everyone who was still discussing how to survive the three months in the recruit company without cigarettes, Sun Weichen still felt that it would be better for him to eat it himself.

The fat boy has no other hobbies except eating and surfing the Internet. He smokes only when someone gives him cigarettes, and won't smoke if no one gives them.

As long as his stomach could hold more, he was not too keen on having others share food with him.

Beep...beep...na beep...

At ten o'clock in the evening, the lights-out signal sounded on time, and the dormitory building, which was originally brightly lit, suddenly became dim.

The recruits had been rushed to their beds by their squad leaders a few minutes ago.

"Lie down, don't talk, and go to sleep. I'll get up at five tomorrow and teach you how to do your housework!"

"Oh, no, monitor! You have to get up so early!"

"Come on, I've never gotten up so early for school..."

When the recruits heard Li Gang say that they had to get up at five o'clock the next morning, they immediately let out a wail.

"Shut up, everyone, and go to sleep!"

Unfortunately, the wailing of the crowd did not have any effect. Following the angry shout from the squad leader Li Gang, the dormitory suddenly became quiet.

Although everyone was very sleepy, they felt uncomfortable lying on the bed.

Last night, they were still in their extremely familiar home, but just one day later, they were already in an unknown foreign land thousands of miles away.

The sudden change in environment made it difficult for many people to adapt. They kept feeling sleepy, but they tossed and turned for a long time and couldn't fall asleep.

Lying on the bed, Jiang Chen did not toss and turn like the others. He fell asleep soon after closing his eyes.

It’s just that his dream is a little different from others.

……

After entering the dream space, Jiang Chen had nothing to do and could only review his experiences during the day out of boredom.

I got off the train under urging and had to go through the military truck journey again, which almost made me lose my overnight meal. I was caught by the black-faced man named Zhao Hongbin and was used as an example to scare the monkeys.

Then, he watched with his own eyes as Li Gang shaved his short haircut, which he had spent five dollars on in town, into something weird...

The final event is an unforgettable five-kilometer run.

Wearing a vest and shorts, Jiang Chen came to the playground. Having experienced this once before, he saw that as more than a hundred big men in shorts and vests walked into the playground, a large number of mosquitoes flew in from the jungle not far away.

These new recruits were like free delicacies, allowing the mosquitoes to choose and eat them.

Now that you have arrived in the army, don't leave any regrets for yourself.

Although Jiang Chen has not decided to develop in the army, his experiences in his previous life have made him full of fantasies about this sacred place, the army.

He also fantasized that he could meet his own Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi, Bai Tiejun, Gao Cheng, Yuan Lang, or Chengcai just like Xu Sanduo...

He also fantasized that he could become a scout or a special forces soldier, defending his country with his comrades, and making a promise to live and die together...

Therefore, even if he has to retire and go back to college in the future, Jiang Chen will still try his best to become a... qualified... Chinese soldier!

In two years, he didn't dare to ask for too much. Becoming a qualified soldier was already Jiang Chen's biggest dream.

As for whether or not to stay after two years...

Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

Maybe I'll just get carried away and continue working in the army until the country no longer needs me...

Thinking about all these random things, Jiang Chen recalled today's experience over and over again in the dream space.

He didn't know what the point of doing this was, but he thought it would probably work.

At the very least, I won't feel as uncomfortable sitting on a military truck as I do today, I can do push-ups more accurately, react faster to commands, and allocate my energy better when running...

Anyway, doing something is better than doing nothing...

For Jiang Chen, who has a dream space, time may not be as precious as imagined. He can try many things that he only dared to think about but not to take action before.

……

Time passed slowly. In the dream space, Jiang Chen had no idea how many times he had run five kilometers.

Strangely enough, Jiang Chen felt that running five kilometers now was not as strenuous as it was at the beginning.

Before, let alone running five kilometers in one breath, when he was halfway through the run, he was so tired that he wanted to lie down on the ground and not move.

But now, after running the entire five kilometers with the team, although Jiang Chen still felt very tired and almost had no strength to breathe, he did manage to finish the entire journey in one breath with the large group!

Looking at Chu Fei, Zhang Meng and others lying beside him, Jiang Chen was sure that this was not his illusion.

Under the control of their thoughts, time began to flow backwards, returning to the time when Ge Hongtao forced them to take off their military uniforms at the entrance of the dormitory building.

The physical strength consumed while running five kilometers was restored. Jiang Chen did not let time flow, but froze the scene at this moment. He looked down at his palms and legs, feeling the physical strength filling his body. The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth gradually rose to reveal a surprised smile.
