Chapter 39: The Treatment of the Training Squad

  Qu Mingjun and the other three looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock. What does it mean? Why did they have to pack up and leave the team suddenly? Just now, they were still being praised by everyone from the academy to the squad for their outstanding performance in the military competition, how could this happen all of a sudden?

  Yan Weidong smiled at the four people in front of him, very satisfied with the effect of his deliberately misleading words earlier. The four people in front of him were simply super treasures in his eyes. Qu Mingjun was first in the armed cross-country competition throughout the college and even broke the record, fifth in individual combat tactics; Feng Shaoyun was first in individual combat tactics throughout the college, worthy of being a strong player from the military's big competition; Guo Xiangyang was first in shooting competition throughout the college, and had previously won a full ring; Cui Ze seemed to be slightly inferior, but was also third in armed cross-country throughout the college, second in 400-meter obstacle course throughout the college, double item top three, which was also an impressive achievement.

  It's really great, these four kids are too good for the 14th team leader, and they add luster to Yan Weidong's face. Now Yan Weidong is also very famous among all the team leaders in the college. In the five events of the college military games, his team can take back three gold medals, one silver medal, and one bronze medal. And it's still a new student team that has just started its second year.

  "Captain, where are we... going?" The four of us looked at each other, and finally it was Feng Shaojun, the team leader, who spoke up.

  "Huh?" Yan Weidong intentionally glared at him, "Forgot the confidentiality agreement? What's the first article?"

  We're all going to be sent away, and the first thing is the confidentiality agreement. We all know not to ask what we shouldn't, but you have us four pack our bags without telling us where we're going? Are we supposed to pack up and run five kilometers just to come back? It's not like it's necessary for you to tell us in such a mysterious way right before dinner, Qu Mingjun thought resentfully.

  "Let's eat first and talk later." Yan Weidong waved his hand and went in.

  "It doesn't seem like anything bad has happened." Qu Mingjun analyzed it for a moment and whispered to the other three people.

  Everyone thinks it's okay, just now the team won such a big honor, the captain can't possibly be so quick to burn bridges and kill the donkey. Besides, he said let's eat first, if it were something bad, it wouldn't be possible like this, it definitely wouldn't be a big deal.

  "I said, doesn't Captain Wang sound like he's speaking today?" Cui Ze whispered as he walked into the cafeteria.

  Qu Mingjun, Guo Xiangyang and Feng Shaojun looked at each other, nodded their heads, and deeply felt the same way. Exactly, what's wrong with you learning from Wang Jin and selling whatever guan zi?

  Today, there is actually an extra meal? Usually, the team members have an extra meal every Saturday night, and today they also had an extra meal. Moreover, each person was given a bottle of beer. It seems that the team leader is really overjoyed today.

  After dinner, Qu Mingjun and the three of them returned to Class 6. They had no choice but to start packing their bags. This shocked the others in Class 6 - what's going on?

  But Qu Mingjun and the other two also couldn't explain why, so they just said it was the captain's order, but they didn't know what to do specifically. The sixth class was very dissatisfied with this, what is this? Is the captain learning from Wang Jin? Everyone glared at Wang Jin angrily, making innocent Wang Jin very depressed.

  "It's nothing, not a bad thing, but maybe in some sense it's also not a good thing." Yan Weidong sat in the team leader's office, looking at the four people standing in front of him, including Qu Mingjun.

  "The four of you have been selected to represent the Shi Men Lu Institute in the Army Academy's grand martial arts competition. Upon receiving orders from higher-ups, you will report to the training battalion tonight and accept the command of the military martial arts coaching team to participate in intensive training."

  "If you perform well in training, then we will let you return only after you have finished competing." Yan Weidong said it very clearly.

  This is great! Among several thousand students in the whole college, only four of them, including Qu Mingjun, were selected for the training team, which is quite an honor.

  "Uh, but you guys have to be prepared to suffer and work hard. I heard that the captain of this training team..." Yan Weidong thought for a moment, waved his hand, and didn't continue speaking. Qu Mingjun and the others were too excited to ask further questions.

  "Report to Captain, but what about our classes?" Feng Shaojun was the district team leader after all, and at this time he could only take the lead in asking some questions on behalf of the four people.

  "This is also under the command of the coaching group, I heard that in the early days you would come back to class on time, and special cases were handled specially. The daily management and life are temporarily handed over to them, go and listen to the coaching group." Yan Weidong explained.

  "Yes!" The four of them saluted the captain collectively, and their minds were at ease. This was definitely a good thing; being selected as representatives for the military's grand martial arts competition was equivalent to becoming one of the top students among the thousands of students in Shimen Academy. As long as they achieved results, it would be extremely beneficial, whether in terms of personal gain or reputation.

  But from now on, they will probably have to suffer even more. The training will definitely not be so easy. Qu Mingjun and the other four people all had some enlightenment in their hearts, but when the actual training arrived, they would know why Yan Weidong was hesitant to speak.

  "Wait a minute." Just as Qu Mingjun and others were about to walk out of the door, Yan Weidong suddenly stopped everyone.

  "Go for it!" Yan Weidong took a deep look at the four of them, then nodded and smiled.

  "Yes!" Qu Mingjun and the other three stood at attention again, saluting Captain Yan Weidong while also expressing their determination.

  "What? You've been selected as our school's representative team for the Army Academy's grand martial arts competition?" Li Dongkuan and Wang Jin, along with other comrades from Class 6, were all very surprised.

  "Yes." Guo Xiangyang nodded, "So for the next two months or so, I and Qu Mingjun, Cui Ze will temporarily not be living in the 14th squad. So the affairs of Class 6 will be handed over to Vice Class Leader Li Dongkuan."

  "Alright." Li Dong nodded, since the class monitor was no longer there, the vice-class monitor naturally took over.

  "Maybe next time, you guys will have to work harder on our tasks, after all, we suddenly lost three people. But everyone must do their best and not lose face for our class six." Guo Xiangyang said with a smile.

  "Don't worry, class monitor. These trivial matters in the class aren't that tiring, but you guys will probably have a harder time with training instead. Take care of yourselves." Li Dong nodded and said.

  "Come on, Qu Ge!" Wang Jin said in a low voice, "Bring back another first place, heh heh."

  "It's not that easy, but I'll try my best." Qu Mingjun smiled and shook his head, "I said you guys don't have to show such a sad parting mood. We may not be living in the team anymore, but we still have to come back for classes during regular times."

  "Hey!" Everyone heard it and thought it was like that, so they didn't even need to send anything, and they just dispersed in a hurry.

  "Damn it, you guys are really realistic." Cui Ze had been brewing his emotions for half a day, wanting to say something sentimental, but before he could say anything, he ran into this, and he rubbed the back of his head, feeling quite frustrated.

  Qu Mingjun and the other two people shouldered their bags and went to Class 5 to find Feng Shaojun. The four of them left the school gate together.

  What they didn't expect was that Captain Yan Weidong and Instructor Jia Jie were both outside the door, looking like they were preparing to see them off.

  The training team is not far from the 14th team, just across the big playground. Qu Mingjun and his three teammates arrived at the training team's entrance under the leadership of Captain Yan Weidong and were assigned a dormitory.

  This time, the college also attaches great importance to this military competition of the whole army's land forces academy. The dormitory arranged for Qu Mingjun and others is actually the dormitory of the division-level cadres rotation training team, which is a two-person room with a bathroom, similar to a hotel standard room. The most exaggerated thing is that there are even air conditioning and hot water supply.

  Four people came from the 14th team, and two people were assigned to one dormitory. Qu Mingjun and Cui Ze were assigned to room 106.

  As soon as he entered the house, Cui Ze took a deep breath and said, "Wow, this is luxurious?"

  Even Qu Mingjun, who was used to seeing five-star hotels all the time, was slightly shocked by the room settings here. It wasn't because they were particularly luxurious, but because such rooms were actually arranged for the students of Shimen Lu Institute. This was something that people who had never seen it before could hardly imagine.

  The room size is the same as their original 14th team's room size, it was originally converted from an old teaching building, so the area size is naturally the same. However, one-third of the room was partitioned off as a bathroom and washroom, and two-thirds of the remaining space was used to place two wooden single beds, with a small cabinet on one side of the bed, and a desk lamp on top of the cabinet. On the opposite side of the bed were two writing desks with bookshelves and matching backrest chairs, and surprisingly, there was even an ashtray on the writing desk. Against the wall next to the bathroom stood two standing closets. At the entrance, there were coat hooks, and next to the hooks was a full-length mirror.

  Pushing open the door to the bathroom, it was equipped with a shower head and a sit-down toilet, as well as a large washbasin, which surprisingly had all sorts of bathing supplies.

  Not bad, Qu Mingjun has a bit of appreciation for this facility, it's quite luxurious. It can be compared to the standard room of an ordinary restaurant, of course, there is still a lack of a TV on the table, and a rug on the floor, and two single beds also lack Simmons mattresses.

  However, the military flavor of the room can still be seen. The walls are mainly white, and the lower part of the wall skirt is painted with green paint about one meter high from the ground. The floor is an ordinary cement floor. Although the wooden single bed is not a standard issue, it has a standard mattress and military green blanket on top. The original wooden wardrobe still has the emblem of Shi Men Lu Yuan on it.

  "Wow, there's even air conditioning?" Cui Ze put his backpack on a bed, marveling at the sight.

  Qu Mingjun smiled slightly, turned around and unzipped his backpack completely. According to the army's internal affairs standards, he carefully laid out his mattress and sheets, then folded his quilt into a standard rectangular block like tofu.

  Choi Tae was like Liu Laolao who had just entered the Grand View Garden, marveling at this and sighing at that. When he finally came to his senses, Qu Mingjun had already made up the bed and taken out the toiletries into the bathroom.

  After Deok-ming Joon came out, Choi Jae also folded the quilt and was holding an ashtray while blowing clouds of smoke and studying the air conditioner remote control in his hand.

  "How does this thing work?" The remote control in Cui Ze's hand was all in English, and he suddenly didn't know how to use it.

  Qiu Mingjun took it over and opened the air conditioner with ease, setting the temperature to 25 degrees. Soon, a gentle cool breeze was blowing out.

  It's late September, the autumnal heat wave is still raging on the land of Shimen, and it's sweltering outside. However, in this room, it's cool and refreshing, a pleasant atmosphere indeed.

  "It's really comfortable." Cui Ze smiled and leaned against the headboard, "I didn't expect that our Lu Institute would have such luxurious dormitories for students, I wonder who usually uses them."

  "It should be the students of the divisional cadre rotation training team." Qu Mingjun thought for a moment, "Our Lu Institute's rotation brigade has a divisional cadre team, and those who come are all high-ranking cadres. According to their treatment standards, this dormitory will definitely rise with the tide."

  "This is so cool. I wish we could also have such a high-end dorm when we go to school." Cui Ze envied.

  "This isn't even considered high-end, right?" Qu Mingjun looked around the house, "According to the standard, a team leader should at least have one room per person, but these houses are all shared by two people, so the standard is actually lowered for them."

  "Maybe they have a liaison officer with them." Cui Ze curled his lips, thinking that it was indeed the case, as they were all high-ranking officials at the level of division commander, generally holding the rank of major general, and one step further would be lieutenant general, so enjoying such high-level treatment was normal.

  "Cut it out." Qu Mingjun laughed, "I've never heard of anyone bringing a liaison officer to school."

  The two were chatting idly when the door was suddenly pushed open.
