Seven o'clock in the morning on October 10th.

After breakfast, the assembled team stood in the large training ground. Five instructors stood in front of everyone in a row. Xu Tao looked at these instructors carefully. The five instructors were not well dressed, but simple camouflage pants. Add a white or black vest.

Including Su Yong who was familiar with him yesterday, Xu Tao was slightly surprised when he saw Su Yong. It turned out that Su Yong was not a complete hippie smile. The bold man with white teeth and laughing like a different person.

"Hygienists come out." A low-pitched shout sounded. Xu Tao, Zhao Ming, Cui Yanping, and Guo Wenju stepped out of the line. Xu Tao looked at the man who spoke. He was of medium build, short hair, and dark. His face, neither the expression nor the eyes, was as aggressive as other instructors, but a kind of calmness, but for some reason, the moment Xu Tao saw the instructor, Xu Tao trembled unconsciously.

The bottom of my heart seemed to be clamoring constantly, stay away from this person, put away some chaotic thoughts, and Xu Tao looked at the instructor in front of him seriously.

"Zhou Xiao, your instructor, sign up." The man spoke slowly, very peacefully, as if he was talking about eating again?

"Zhao Ming," Zhao Ming, who was ranked first, saluted and said his name. Waiting for Zhou Xiao to give orders.

"Follow up." Zhou Xiao gave the command, turned around and walked forward slowly, the four of Xu Tao glanced at each other and followed quickly, until they walked to the edge of the playground, Zhou Xiao pointed to the equipment piled on the ground, "10 kilometers with full load Armed off-road."

After Zhou Xiao finished speaking, he continued to turn around and walked out of the playground, and directly got on the beach buggy at the entrance of the playground. Seeing Xu Tao and others put on all the equipment, he honked the car horn, and the four of them walked out of the playground and looked at Zhou Xiao inside the car. , "Follow up." After Zhou Xiao finished speaking, he kicked the accelerator and the car drove away from the gate of the training ground.

The four people followed the car and started the first training course today. They ran 10 kilometers off-road with full load, ran straight and turned, and rushed into the beach. At first glance, the few people who ran into the beach couldn't find the point of focus. Just like using a lot of strength, even Xu Tao, who has done desert training, can only find the point of focus while constantly adjusting the pace of his feet.

The off-road vehicle in front continued to accelerate, and Xu Tao and others behind were chasing hard under the condition of full load. It took nearly an hour for the four people to return to the playground. There is only one word to describe it. Akatsuki looked at the four people who were sweating profusely and panting continuously, without the slightest expression on their faces.

"Remove the equipment." After putting the equipment aside again, Zhou Xiao didn't give them any time to rest, and led them to the left side of the playground, pointing to the horizontal bar, "Pull-ups, 50."

Xu Tao glanced at the horizontal bar erected in front of him, took a step forward, jumped, and grabbed the iron bar of the horizontal bar, one, two, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-one. Xu Tao felt that his arms were getting stronger and stronger. No strength, every upward movement is full of powerlessness.

24, with a bang, Xu Tao fell off the horizontal bar first, "Continue." Xu Tao who fell to the ground stood up again, jumped again and grabbed the iron rod of the horizontal bar, fell one after another and repeated the password issued by the instructor .

After fifty pull-ups, Xu Tao fell down three times. When the fifty pull-ups were finally done, Xu Tao felt as if his whole body had been washed, his clothes were tightly attached to his body, and his throat and eyes seemed dry while he was panting heavily. It looked like it was smoking.

The same panting voice came from his ear, Xu Tao didn't turn his head to look at his teammates, but just looked in front of them and looked at Zhou Xiao.

"200 push-ups, start." Another command made Xu Tao feel more and more sore arms, did not stop, continued, after barely doing the push-ups, Xu Tao felt that his arms were a little too tight, but it was still not over, and then It's a [-]-meter leapfrog.

One subject after another was difficult to complete until 11:30. When the morning training was finally over, the camouflage uniforms of Xu Tao and Zhao Ming had a layer of white spots on them. In the personal cafeteria, sitting at the dining table, Cui Yanping twisted his back hard, and looked around, "Do you think our instructor is sick? I haven't seen any other expressions on his face this morning, no matter what we do Whether it’s good or not, it’s all the same expressionless face, I really want to go up and pinch to see if the muscles on the face are dead.”

Zhao Ming rolled his eyes, "You're flustered." Xu Tao looked at Cui Yanping who was winking with some amusement. Xu Tao had a feeling that if Cui Yanping dared to directly attack him, the instructor would break his hand.

Guo Wenju lay on the table and waved his hands feebly, "I feel like I'm going to finish my meal and take a rest, I'm so fucking tired."

Xu Tao smiled at Guo Wenju who was lying on the table, and knocked on the table, "What if the instructor doesn't let you sleep?"

Guo Wen raised his head abruptly and looked at Xu Tao, "Don't scare me, I'm exhausted."

Guo Wenju's words made Xu Tao and the three of them laugh. Guo Wenju joined the team a year later than Xu Tao and the three. His skills are extremely good, but his physical fitness is similar to Xu Tao's. It's just that Xu Tao has undergone systematic training for a period of time because he participated in the competition. Training, while tiring, is not unbearable.

Meng Zhan led the team into the cafeteria and saw Xu Tao who was smiling, his eyes softened instantly, he quickly looked up and down Xu Tao, Meng Zhan frowned slightly, although Xu Tao was smiling, he rubbed his arms unconsciously Meng Zhan's actions made Meng Zhan a little distressed. After thinking about it for a while, Meng Zhan explained and Chen Guangfa turned and left the cafeteria.

But when he glanced at Meng Zhan, he found that Meng Zhan turned around and left again. Xu Tao was a little surprised. He was going to have dinner soon. What did this man do after intensive training all morning?

Although curious, but looking around, Xu Tao suppressed the surprise in his heart and continued to chat with Zhao Ming and others, occasionally asking Wang Jin how the training was in the morning?

Meng Zhan, who returned to the cafeteria after making the phone call, glanced at Xu Tao, walked up to Xu Tao, sat down directly, and looked at the four people, "How is it?"

Guo Wenju looked up at Meng Zhan, then shook his head lazily, "It's not good, I'm so tired."

Guo Wenju's words made everyone laugh, and Chen Guangfa turned around and slapped Guo Wenju, "Xiao Guozi, this is just the beginning, and you will suffer in the future."

Guo Wenju nodded feebly, "I know, that's why I said I was exhausted to death, four months, just thinking about it, I want to jump into the sea and become a dolphin."

Hahahaha loud laughter came again, which surprised the cooking squad leader of the cafeteria. This team is not bad. I remember that the other team from the capital was completely silent at noon on the first day. These people still had the strength to laugh and nodded secretly. The cooking squad leader quickened his movements and greeted them to bring out the dishes and rice bowls.

After lunch, a group of people just walked out of the cafeteria when they saw five instructors standing at the entrance of the cafeteria. Meng Zhan stepped forward, stood at attention and saluted, waiting for the order, "All are here, gather on the playground."

All the team members quickly integrated the team and ran into the playground. Su Yong stepped forward, "From now until three o'clock in the afternoon, there is only one training subject, high temperature resistance, and everyone has it. Stand at attention and rest."

Xu Tao subconsciously looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, then retracted his eyes and blinked, feeling dizzy.

Time passed by every minute and every second, on the playground without a trace of cover, under the scorching sun, sweat kept dripping down his scalp. I don't know how long it took, Xu Tao felt the burning pain on his exposed skin, and the sweat slid over his skin. The place was itchy and painful, but looking at the instructor standing on the playground like them, patience was the only thing he could do.

Standing upright, his legs began to feel sore and painful. The clothes on his body were dried by the scorching sun as soon as they were damp. Layers of salt spots covered the entire camouflage uniform. When he finally heard the command to disband, Xu Tao suddenly The son sat on the ground, moving his legs up and down quickly, his legs that were already completely stiff were swollen and painful.

With less than 10 minutes of rest, the training started again, this time until five o’clock. After a half-hour rest after meals, the training continued until nine o’clock in the evening, when Xu Tao dragged his heavy body back to the barracks Shi suddenly flung himself on the bed, his whole body was sore and sore, especially the skin on his face that had been exposed to the sun felt hot.

Before Xu Tao could recover, Meng Zhan walked into Xu Tao's bedroom with the list in his hand. Seeing Xu Tao lying on the bed without taking off his clothes, he walked over and pulled Xu Tao up, "Xiao Tao, adjust the dormitory, get up first."

Xu Tao raised his heavy eyelids and looked at Meng Zhan, "What do you want to do to adjust the dormitory?" Meng Zhan couldn't help reaching out and gently stroking Xu Tao's cheek with his slow and hoarse voice, with undisguised distress in his eyes, " Be good, we have to divide into small teams, ten people in one team, ten days later the friendly match will be in groups of ten people."

Xu Tao's dull brain because of being sleepy and tired just nodded, Meng Zhan smiled distressedly, pulled Xu Tao directly to his bedroom at the far end, took off Xu Tao's coat, stuffed him into the bathroom, Turn on the hot water, "Wash first, I'll arrange the bedroom."

Xu Tao nodded slowly, Meng Zhan bowed his head and kissed the corner of Xu Tao's mouth, turned around and left quickly, Xu Tao reluctantly rinsed, put on shorts, crawled back to the bed, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Holding the list carefully studied in his hand, he came to each dormitory. Meng Zhan ignored the team members who were wailing for a rest, and quickly reassigned the personnel. The four health workers shared a room with the captains of the four teams. According to the staffing, the first A small team, captain Meng Zhan, health worker Xu Tao; second team, captain Chen Guangfa, health worker Guo Wenju; third team, captain Yu Liang, health worker Cui Yanping; fourth team, captain Yang Shilong, health worker Zhao Ming.

After reassigning the dormitories and handing over the list of team members to the team leader, Meng Zhan returned to his dormitory. Xu Tao, who was lying on the bed and snoring, made Meng Zhan smile a little, and quietly walked into the bathroom, quickly After washing, the shirtless Meng Zhan went to the bed and squatted in front of Xu Tao to watch carefully.

Maybe it was tired or uncomfortable, Xu Tao, who was asleep, frowned slightly, stood up, glanced at the single bed that was not wide, Meng Zhan shook his head, bent down and kissed him, and went back to the bed next to him to lie down. Closing his eyes, he carefully thought about the first confrontation after ten days.

Although Meng Zhan has no specific understanding of how other military regions train special soldiers, Meng Zhan is definitely a well-deserved leader in this branch of arms. It can even be said that the training outline of the special training in the B military region and N military region is all given by the Mongolian Zhan system. Although the number of opponents is nearly double the number of people they came here to train this time, Meng Zhan knows that the number of people is not an absolute condition for an absolute war, and Meng Zhan is absolutely confident that with less In the case of many, let the enemy see the strength of the fifth battalion.

The only thing Meng Zhan worried about was the health guards. Although Meng Zhan had never had any direct contact with Liu Jianyang, the accidents and the hostile eyes when he participated in the competition let the sharp-eyed Meng Zhan know that Liu Jianyang can definitely be worthy of it. The four words despicable.

Although Meng Zhan remembered Liu Jianyang fiercely in his heart, Meng Zhan never expected to meet Liu Jianyang so soon. Liu Jianyang was like a time bomb. Meng Zhan never thought of letting go. According to Meng Zhan's thinking, Only when he is disabled and completely leaves the military system can Meng Zhan dispel his anger towards Liu Jianyang.

Until now, Meng Zhan is still a little scared when he thinks of that incident. If Xu Tao hadn’t checked the medicine box habitually at that time, Xu Tao would not only be punished for dereliction of duty, but in serious cases he would be expelled from the army and sent to a military court. Meng Zhan's anger surged up for the difficulties and disasters that the little fool had faced.

Turning over, looking at Xu Tao who was sleeping heartlessly, Meng Zhan couldn't help laughing, got up quietly, walked to Xu Tao's side, carefully picked up the little fool who was sleeping soundly, lay on the bed, and hugged him tightly. Tightly imprisoned in his arms, hugging Xu Tao again, Meng Zhan felt an uncontrollable warmth in his heart.

Meng Zhan closed his eyes again, and hugged Xu Tao tightly. Xu Tao habitually rubbed against Meng Zhan's chest twice, and breathed lightly across his chest, which made Meng Zhan feel a little strange in his heart. He carefully moved his right leg Stretched between Xu Tao's legs, unconsciously rubbed twice, Xu Tao's uncomfortable humming made Meng Zhan chuckle.

Embracing the lover in his arms, suppressing some rising desires, he slowly fell asleep. The single bed was not too wide. The two hugging each other were speechless under the moonlight that slanted into the room. warm.

The next day, when the first wake-up bell rang, Xu Tao opened his eyes after sleeping all night, and habitually rubbed his cheek buried in Meng Zhan's chest twice, "You squeeze me into such a small bed. "

When the hoarse, lazy voice sounded in Meng Zhan's ear, Meng Zhan lowered his head and kissed Xu Tao's head, "I can't sleep well without hugging."

Xu Tao couldn't help complaining secretly if Meng Zhan was not too shy. He had never seen you like this before, but time did not allow Xu Tao to get too entangled. He patted Meng Zhan who was holding him and didn't let go, "Get up, the first ringtone It's already rung."

Meng Zhan let go of his arms and jumped off the bed with a heck of a smile, pulled Xu Tao up, and moved his body left and right. The sound of cracking bones made Xu Tao roll his eyes, "Hurry up and wash up."

Meng Zhan put on his pants with a smile, went straight into the washroom, turned on the water, brushed his teeth and washed his face, Xu Tao stood up, put on his clothes and tidied up his housework, and walked into the washroom.

After tidying up, the two walked out of the room. Just when the bell rang for the second time, they went directly to the playground to participate in morning exercises. After an hour of morning jogging, they returned to the dormitory to wash the clothes that they hadn't had time to wash yesterday, and then the two followed. Wang Jin and others who came to greet him walked towards the cafeteria.

The increasing training plan day after day made Xu Tao, Zhao Ming, Cui Yanping, and Guo Wenju so tired that they couldn't eat for three consecutive days. The high temperature and scorching heat, the uninterrupted daily training and night training, the weight of several people dropped significantly. The reflected state made Zhou Xiao see it in his eyes, and while explaining that the cooking class prepares food for the summer heat every day, he continued to inspire the limits and fighting spirit of several people.

Zhou Xiao understands that it’s not that the people who are used to the northern weather can’t keep up with the training plan in terms of physical fitness, but that they have not fully adapted to the change of environment and continuous training. As long as they survive these three or four days, Everything will get better slowly, just as Zhou Xiao expected, on the fourth night, the four people who have initially adapted to the high temperature finished their sour soup exclusive to the training camp, and started eating again.

Seeing that Xu Tao had recovered two-thirds of his previous appetite again, Meng Zhan's heart finally fell to the ground, and his worry slowly receded from his eyes. He raised his head and glanced at Zhou Xiao who was eating silently. Grateful and appreciative, Zhou Xiaorang suddenly raised his head and Meng Zhan grinned, "Captain Sharp Knife."

The silent words made Zhou Xiao's eyes shrink slightly, and it was the first time he looked at Meng Zhan carefully, Meng Zhan smiled, the smile on his face gradually faded, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, "Yu Yang." Another spit out The silent name made Zhou Xiao's pupils shrink quickly. Looking at the sad Meng Zhan flashing in his eyes not far away, Zhou Xiao put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, glanced outside the door, stood up and walked slowly towards the door. go outside.

Meng Zhan, who also put down the rice bowl in his hand, walked out of the cafeteria with a heavy heart. The two went directly to the big tree on the side of the cafeteria. Zhou Xiao looked at Meng Zhan and frowned slightly. Zhou Xiao, who rarely showed any expressions, felt unspeakably blocked in his heart, and also had a lover's Meng Zhan. Today, he can truly understand Zhou Xiao's mood, without waiting for Zhou Xiao to say, "Yu Yang, my instructor."

Meng Zhan's low-pitched words made Zhou Xiao's calm heart seem to be grasped quickly and forcefully, and bursts of pain kept surging from the bottom of his heart, "Skinboy?"

Hearing this nickname given to him by Yu Yang again, Meng Zhan couldn't tell what it was like. How old was he at that time?Sixteen or seventeen, Yu Yang was his first instructor, it was the man who was as gentle and elegant as a piece of jade taught him what survival was, and it was that man who made him understand what it was to be a soldier.

Meng Zhan didn't speak, but Zhou Xiao knew that the tall and steady man in front of him was what his lover called Pi Xiaozi with a smile. Seeing this person who was connected with his lover and even let his lover admit that he was a little apprentice, Zhou Xiao's expression slowed down. Slowly slowing down, "Before the shark died, he said he would visit you on vacation."

Meng Zhan nodded, suppressing the sourness in his heart, "I know, I'm going to see the instructor."

Zhou Xiao's face became softer and softer, "Is that pine and cypress that is sent to the tombstone every May from you?"

Meng Zhan nodded, with a nostalgic smile on his face, "Well, the instructor said, he is a pine and cypress, no matter what kind of bad weather he is in, he always has such a touch of green."

Meng Zhan's words flashed in Zhou Xiao's eyes the man who valued the duty of a soldier more than his life. From hating him cruelly at the beginning to now endlessly missing him, it took Zhou Xiao seven years until he lost his right hand five years ago. Legs, staying here as an instructor, the peaceful life without waves made Zhou Xiao calm down and think about it slowly. Now, Zhou Xiao is finally able to calmly face the death of his lover.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhou Xiao looked at the coconut trees in the distance. The green leaves brought a little coolness to the heat. Looking away, Zhou Xiao looked at Meng Zhan, with the first smile on his face in several years, "It's okay to go I sit there."

Meng Zhan looked at the smiling Zhou Xiao, smiled too, and nodded, "Yes, Master."

Zhou Xiao smiled, really from the bottom of his heart. This is the first time Zhou Xiao has been recognized as Yu Yang's lover, even if Yu Yang has sacrificed himself, even if few people remember him Yu Yang's love has never seen the light.

Zhou Xiao turned around with a smile and left slowly. Seeing Zhou Xiao's back alone, Meng Zhan felt a deep tremor in his heart. The reason why Meng Zhan understood his sexuality so clearly was because Yu Yang told him that Meng Zhan would never I can't forget that when I was young, I stood on the playground, drooping my head and talking about my strangeness, and then Yu Yang pressed the big warm hand on my head.

Meng Zhan remembers, remembers Yu Yang said that just choosing differently does not mean that he is a monster, remembers Yu Yang talking to himself about his lover with a little bit of miss, remembering Yu Yang saying that his lover is his pride with a smile on his face, Meng Zhan remembered everything about Yu Yang.

At that time, Yu Yang's face was full of warmth, but today, Yu Yang left, leaving forever, leaving Zhou Xiao alone to live like an ascetic monk's life. Meng Zhan didn't know if one day he faced Zhou Xiao in such a situation, would it be possible? Live bravely, in Meng Zhan's heart, death is not terrible, what is terrible is living alone.

Shaking his head vigorously, Meng Zhan desperately wanted to see Xu Tao at this moment, to see the lover deeply in his heart, and rushed into the cafeteria. The empty cafeteria made Meng Zhan turn around and rush to the dormitory, directly rushing into the room. Meng Zhan saw his lover sitting on the bed drinking water.

Xu Tao, who was startled by Meng Zhan who suddenly rushed into the room, stared blankly at Meng Zhan with a water glass in his mouth, quickly put down the water glass in his hand, stood up just now, before he could speak Hugged by Meng Zhan, Xu Tao was shocked by Meng Zhan's slightly trembling body, but Xu Tao didn't have time to ask questions because of Meng Zhan's slightly trembling body, he just hugged back and stroked slowly.

After a while, Meng Zhan let go of his arms, and pulled Xu Tao to sit beside the bed. Seeing Meng Zhan's expression turned, Xu Tao's heart was finally let go, and after asking softly, he heard an incomplete but full of sadness. Story, Xu Tao smiled, reached out and touched Xu Tao's forehead, "We won't, we will be together no matter life or death."

Meng Zhan heaved a sigh of relief, smiled, bowed his head and kissed the corner of Xu Tao's mouth, nodded, "Yes, we must be together regardless of life or death." The two people who looked at each other smiled, with firmness in their smiles.
