Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

Around four o'clock in the morning.

Kong Jie was suddenly awakened by the urge to pee.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, went to the toilet in the courtyard, and then looked up. He saw the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the night was as bright as day.

I stretched my body and felt that all the fatigue brought by yesterday's physical training seemed to be swept away.

The original sleepiness also subsided a lot.

Now even if I go back to bed, I probably won’t be able to fall asleep.

He looked at the time displayed on the watch on his left wrist, which he had just seized from the Japanese soldiers in the special forces team of the prisoner-of-war camp.

According to the planned time, a new day of special training would start in an hour.

That being the case.

Then I'm sorry.

I can't sleep well, and these brats want to sleep well...

Put the whistle to your lips.

call out--

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Five long and one short whistle suddenly sounded, representing the night emergency assembly call.

It completely broke the silence of the regiment.

Inside the dormitory - After the special operations team was formally established, Kong Jie specifically instructed that several yards be cleared out next to the regiment headquarters compound and the dormitory beds be vacated for the special operations team members to rest.

There are three large bunk beds in total, which completely connect the inner and outer rooms. The soldiers' beds are placed together and arranged in rows. Each bunk bed can sleep more than ten people.

The first whistle sounded.

Among the 41 special forces members, including Li Yunlong, less than one-third of the soldiers were awakened.

After all, yesterday's day of physical training was too tiring, and it was still early, and the soldiers were still sleeping soundly.

Who could have expected that Kong Jie, awakened by the urge to pee, would go against the rules and blow the emergency assembly whistle more than an hour in advance?

"Comrades, wake up! I think I heard a whistle. It sounds like the emergency assembly whistle of our special forces!"

A soldier who was more alert sat up from the bunk bed and said while rubbing his eyes.

The soldier who was awakened muttered: "Stop talking nonsense, it's still the middle of the night, how can there be any sound? Hurry up and go back to sleep!"

The words have not yet fallen.

call out--

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The whistle sounded for the second time. This is the rule for the troops to blow the emergency assembly whistle, which needs to be blown three times in total.

This time it can't be faked.

The soldiers suddenly came to their senses, hurriedly put on their uniforms, sorted their equipment, and then rushed to the assembly area in a hurry.

The three bunk beds were not far apart. The soldiers from the first and second bunk beds hurriedly filed out of the rooms and ran towards the assembly area in twos and threes.

Under the bright moonlight, everyone's shadows were stretched out.

the strange thing is.

Only in the third bunk, not a single soldier came out.

If this continues, the dozen or so members in the third bunk will probably be late.

An old squad leader was kind-hearted and rushed to the door of the third bunk bed after noticing the situation. As he pushed the door open, the wooden door made a sharp creaking sound.

Inside the dormitory, the thunderous snoring suddenly stopped.

A man, whose features could not be seen clearly in the moonlight but whose head seemed to be larger than that of an ordinary person, suddenly sat up from the bed.

He asked, "Who is it?"

call out--

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The third emergency assembly whistle sounded very timely.

The soldier said, "The commander blew the whistle, emergency assembly!"

"Damn it, this damn old Kong is making trouble for me in the middle of the night!"

The big-headed man cursed a few words, quickly jumped out of bed and started putting on his military uniform.

——Who else could it be if not Li Yunlong, deputy commander of the independent regiment?

And what is even more surprising is.

As Li Yunlong woke up, the snoring stopped abruptly, and the other soldiers in the third bunk probably could no longer hear the snoring.

They woke up one after another without anyone calling them.

More accurate than an alarm clock!

It turned out that Li Yunlong had been sleeping in the same bunk bed with everyone else for the past few days. This kid liked to snore when he fell asleep, and his snoring was as loud as thunder. At first, the soldiers were disturbed so much that no one could sleep.

I ended up sleeping there for two days and getting used to it.

Li Yunlong's snoring seemed like a lullaby. The soldiers could fall asleep quickly after listening to his snoring, and they slept particularly soundly.

The snoring stopped.

The soldiers couldn't sleep and woke up almost as a conditioned reflex.

"Don't be confused, hurry up, emergency assembly!" Li Yunlong shouted, and the soldiers quickly took action.

After a while.

On the rice field outside the regiment compound.

The special forces members quickly gathered in groups of three or four, lined up, and found their own positions. The vacancies around them were filled by comrades who had not arrived in time.

Kong Jie was counting the time under the moonlight.

One minute.

Two minutes.

...Four minutes, five minutes.

After the five minutes were up, all the later players were stopped by Kong Jie and stood on the left side of the team, which looked very different compared to the neat team.

Finally, all 41 members gathered together.

However, only 26 team members completed the emergency assembly task within the stipulated five minutes.

Another 15 players exceeded the time limit.

Li Yunlong arrived just on time, just one second late and he would have been excluded from the five minutes.

Barely met the standard.

The soldiers who followed Li Yunlong were all late and were stopped by Kong Jie.

Kong Jie's voice sounded slowly, and his tone did not sound pleasant:

"The battlefield situation changes rapidly, and time is life. If the organization needs you to conduct an emergency operation, a few seconds of delay means the loss of opportunity. Maybe the enemy's artillery position or headquarters that we want to attack has been moved ahead of time during this short period of time.

Not to mention those of you who came later, who were almost two minutes late.

Yesterday was the first emergency assembly training, so I won’t say anything about the fact that you were a little late.

But today is the second time.

I won’t say any more nonsense. The 15 comrades who were late just ran around the rice field until our morning training officially began.

As for the rest of the members, this emergency assembly barely meets the requirements, and I now order you to return to your bunk beds immediately and continue to take the time to rest."

ooh ooh-

The late soldiers complained bitterly and ran around the dojo. The area of ​​the dojo was not small, and one circle was probably about two to three hundred meters.

I kept running until the special forces team’s morning training started, and there was still more than an hour left!

I'm afraid I'll have to run twenty or thirty laps.

The punished soldiers started running in circles, but when they looked at the deputy regiment commander Li Yunlong, their expressions couldn't help but show some resentment - almost all of them were members of the third bunk bed, and it was because the deputy regiment commander's snoring was too loud that they could not hear the whistle at all.

Cough cough--

Li Yunlong pretended not to see everyone's expressions.

Damn it, I don’t want to snore!

"Hurry up and run. I'll be watching you here. If you want to slack off, you can try. If you don't get some actual punishment, I don't think this emergency assembly will be able to be trained!"

Kong Jie shouted loudly as a supervisor.

The late soldiers had no choice but to start running laps obediently.

Li Yunlong, Wei Dayong and other team members dragged their feet back to the dormitory and continued to sleep.

Looking at those soldiers who were working day and night and running laps to be punished, everyone was secretly glad.

At the same time, I reminded myself that I must be more alert next time I go to bed and be ready for emergency assembly at any time.

Time passed quietly like this.

About half an hour later.

As the supervisor, Kong Jie looked at the soldiers who were still running in circles, panting, and asked, "How are you, comrades? Are you tired?"

"tired--"

The responses were in unison, expressing the depression and fatigue in their hearts.

However, that was not what Kong Jie heard.

"You're shouting so loudly, but you still don't seem tired. Run five more laps."

"..."

"How are you? Are you tired?"

"tired!"

The soldiers had learned their lesson this time, and answered in twos and threes, even pretending to sound particularly tired.

Kong Jie laughed, and then he cursed loudly: "You still have the mood to act with me? It seems that you are not that tired. There is nothing to say, run ten more laps!"

Soldiers: “…”

Amid the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling one after another.

Kong Jie blew the emergency assembly whistle again. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, one long and five short whistles—"You guys are running laps here, while they are resting quite comfortably. How can there be such a beautiful thing?"

Following Kong Jie's words, the soldiers, who were originally exhausted from running laps, all smiled brightly.

That’s right, if we want to make trouble, let’s do it together!
