Chapter 175: Finally Joining the Army
Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan trained with the army for half a month, and were finally able to barely keep up with the most basic training. Mu Tang would occasionally go with them.
Mu Tang, who has a zombie body, won't get tired at all, and he's very fast.
Every time the training begins, Mu Tang disappears in the blink of an eye. When the fastest runners arrive at the finish line panting and carrying their things, they will be stunned to see Mu Tang sitting at the finish line waving to them.
Not only Ren Yulin suffered a blow, but also the entire army of soldiers suffered varying degrees of blows.
This kind of training was not difficult at all for Mu Tang, and she lost interest within two days.
However, the legend of Lu Yan that used to be circulated in the army has now become that of Mu Tang.
At the end of another training day, Ren Yulin and the other two came back covered in sweat and found that Lu Yan had already been sitting in the living room waiting for them, with two watches on the table.
Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan now had a bit of a military aura about them. When they saw Lu Yan's face, he instantly put away the remaining smile from the fight and stood at attention seriously.
Lu Yan looked them up and down and nodded with satisfaction:
"Sit down."
The two looked at each other, pulled out the chair next to them and sat down, with their backs straight and upright.
Lu Yan pushed the two papers on the table over and motioned for them to take a look.
Ren Yu picked up the paper with a smile on his face:
"Application for enlistment?!"
Lin Wanwan also quickly picked it up and looked at it.
It was just a simple form to fill in personal information, but the two of them read it several times.
Lu Yan waited for them to finish reading and put the watch on the table before saying quietly:
"Seven days later, the recruitment ceremony for new recruits will be held in the base. The conditions for joining the army are not as harsh as before. You have been training with the army for so long. You will definitely pass the form after filling out the form."
After the words fell, Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan looked at each other, picked up the pen on the table and were about to fill it out when Lu Yan knocked on the table and pressed down the two pieces of paper on the table.
The two stopped and looked up at him doubtfully.
"Now is the last chance. Once you fill out this form and hand it in, there will be no room for regret. You know very well what joining the army means now. Army life with only training is impossible, so before you fill it in
Ask yourself first if you will regret it in the future."
The room was silent for a while, and Ren Yu first said firmly:
"I have already thought about it clearly. I have thought about it a long time ago. I want to join the army."
Lin Wanwan also nodded.
Lu Yan looked at the two of them intently for a while before taking back his hand:
"Fill it in."
The two of them took off the pen cap and began to fill in the information inside.
In fact, much of this information is no longer useful to the current base, including the recruitment ceremony for new recruits seven days later, which does not have much meaning, but Lieutenant General Lu still wants to continue this sense of ceremony.
Lieutenant General Lu said this:
"To be fair to every soldier, this is a very important moment in a soldier's career. Although it cannot be as grand as before, I still hope they can have such a memory."
In fact, the military ranks in the base have already been simplified.
For example, Qin Zheng and Qi Yang, one is a major and the other is a captain, but now they are both captains.
There is no difference in the rights and responsibilities between the two, except that when they work together, Qin Zhen's orders are higher than those of Qi Yang.
Ren Yu quickly filled out the information and raised his head to look at Lu Yan, hesitant to speak.
Lu Yan noticed:
"If you have any questions, you can ask directly."
"Lu Yan... No, Major Lu, I want to ask, have you stayed in the army?" Ren Yu asked stumblingly, and Lin Wanwan also raised his head to look at Lu Yan.
A large part of the reason why he wanted to join the army was because he wanted to serve as a soldier under Lu Yan, but he also knew that Mu Tang had some resistance to staying at the base some time ago.
Lu Yan will most likely take Mu Tang away.
But Mu Tang is much better now, and even takes the initiative to contact the soldiers in the army. He seems to be less resistant. He wants to know if Lu Yan and Mu Tang will stay.
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Ren Yu for a long time, until he couldn't help but lower his head, and then said leisurely:
"I have submitted a transfer application to the Lieutenant General. Starting from tomorrow, you have to call me Captain Lu."
"real?!"
"real?!"
Not only Ren Yu, but also Lin Wanwan screamed in surprise.
Lu Yan nodded, but he didn't intend to give them too much time to have fun:
"I select my team members myself. Although you two have followed me all the way, I will not give you special treatment because of this. I will refuse if you can't meet my requirements."
Ren Yu nodded repeatedly:
"We will work hard!"
Lu Yan nodded slightly, picked up the two forms filled out on the table and walked out of the room.
Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan looked at each other, their happiness beyond words.
Now the new recruits in the base will be directly assigned to various positions from the moment they join the army. As for the special operations team members who follow the team leader on missions, they are selected by the team leader during contacts and inspections.
Bases are not allocated.
As a result, the original recruit company no longer existed, and the awarding ceremony that was supposed to be held after the recruit company ended was also canceled due to the virtualization of military ranks in the base.
The current approximate authority in the base is divided into:
Lieutenant General Lu, two major generals (including the deceased Major General Yu), each special operations team leader (such as Qin Zhen Qiyang), as well as squad leaders, team members, and soldiers in charge of various positions in the base.
Ever since they filled out those two forms, Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan ran out of their place of residence before dawn every day and went straight to the training ground as if they had just received a shot of blood.
Mu Tang once woke up suddenly in the middle of the night for some unknown reason. He opened the door and went out to sleep with Niba. As a result, he walked to the yard and saw Ren Yu doing push-ups there. He was so sleepy that he woke up.
Then he squatted beside Niba and watched Ren Yu do it, and even helped Ren Yu count very enthusiastically.
In the end, Ren Yu did a total of 130 and fell asleep on the ground. Within two minutes, he got up again and went to the army training with Lin Wanwan.
Seven days passed by in a blink of an eye.
Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan got up early, put on their newly issued military uniforms, and then rushed to the recruit gathering place.
These military uniforms were leftover from the original Tongcheng troops and were collected through the friendly contributions of all the soldiers.
When handing it over to the new recruits, they gave it a thousand warnings and instructions, that's all, don't break it.
Therefore, most new recruits can only wear casual clothes now, and military uniforms are reserved for major events.
When Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan arrived at the assembly area, there was still more than an hour before the assembly time. There were a few people standing scattered in the venue, all wearing military uniforms collected by the soldiers.
After a while, someone suddenly stood next to the two of them. Ren Yu turned around and saw that it was a young man with a cold face. He had never seen him before, but he still felt familiar.
He stood there carelessly, his military uniform was crookedly worn on his body, and his whole body was frizzy.
Ren Yu frowned, and finally stretched out his hand:
"Hello, I am Ren Yu."
The cold-faced young man turned around, looked at Ren Yu and Lin Wanwan up and down, and after a while, he returned to hold Ren Yu's hand:
Chapter completed!
