Everyone gathered around curiously.
"Putting on a show!"
Wang Yong stood still, but his ears were still perked up.
"Lin Hui, what exactly do you want to say?"
Lin Hui cleared his throat: "You've all seen the situation today. The Troop is different from the outside. We just arrived today and were punished with a five-kilometer run. Not a single person was left out!"
"Similarly, if anyone makes a mistake from now on, our Platoon will definitely be punished."
"Doesn't that still blame you?" Wang Yong rolled his eyes.
Lin Hui ignored him.
This kid must have been on a construction site before, specifically for arguing.
"So what should we do?"
"That five kilometers just now almost broke my legs. My legs are still shaking now."
"I don't want to be punished, Big Brother, how can we avoid it?"
Seeing everyone talking at once, Lin Hui smiled slightly: "Actually, it's very simple, just two points: obey orders and respect Old Soldiers!"
"What does that mean?"
Ma Xiaoshan leaned closer and asked curiously: "Can you explain it more clearly?"
Lin Hui chuckled: "Do you know why Old Soldiers like to call us Recruits 'eggheads'? It's because we're new and don't understand anything."
"This is the Troop. Many things are different from the outside. You can't just do whatever you want."
"Take walking, for example. Outside, no one cares if you swing your arms and walk, but here you can't. You have to follow the Troop's rules."
He continued: "In the Troop, walking must be neat and uniform, two people in a line, three people in a file."
"This means that when two people are together, they must walk side-by-side, keeping their hand and foot movements consistent. If there are three people, they must form a single file."
"When you see an Old Soldier, you must call them Squad Leader, regardless of their rank, just call them that."
"You must shout as loud as you can."
Chen Erhu asked curiously: "Why?"
Lin Hui said with a smile: "Shouting loudly and having a high voice shows respect for them. When the Old Soldiers are happy, they naturally won't make things difficult for us."
"Also, when you encounter an Officer, call them Chief without exception. Your attitude must be more respectful than seeing your ancestors."
Wang Yong, who was beside him, scoffed: "More respectful than ancestors? Are you visiting a grave?"
"Everyone, don't listen to his nonsense. How can it be that mystical?"
Lin Hui stared at him: "If you don't believe me, go out and try it yourself?"
Wang Yong was extremely annoyed.
He wouldn't be the first one to step out!
Someone suddenly spoke: "I think what Lin Hui said makes a lot of sense. Let's listen to him. The Squad Leader just praised him."
The others immediately nodded in agreement.
Wang Yong looked speechless, but in his heart, he actually felt that what Lin Hui said made some sense.
He just purely disliked the person himself.
Chen Erhu asked curiously: "Big Brother, is there anything else we should pay attention to?"
Lin Hui smiled slightly: "For example, when we go to the mess hall to eat later, if the Cadres haven't arrived, you stand there honestly; if the Cadres haven't sat down, none of you sit; if the Cadres haven't started eating, none of you pick up your chopsticks!"
"Ah? Why so many rules?"
"This is the Troop, not our home."
Lin Hui said seriously: "If we didn't have iron discipline, could our State be this strong?"
Everyone nodded, feeling that it made sense.
Lin Hui said calmly: "Just do as I say, and there definitely won't be any problems."
Chen Erhu scratched his head: "There are so many things, what if I can't remember them later?"
Lin Hui said: "Simple, just follow what I do later."
"Okay, okay, we'll follow behind you..."
"First Platoon Leader, going to get water?"
A voice suddenly came from outside, and everyone immediately scattered.
Xu Da came in carrying two thermoses: "What's wrong? Have you all learned? Why are you still chatting?"
Lin Hui smiled and said: "Squad Leader, I was just explaining the details to everyone. They all want to learn quickly and bring glory to our Platoon!"
Xu Da's face lit up with joy: "Right! That's how it should be, strive to be number one. As Soldiers, we must have that drive!"
"Keep folding. Ask if you don't understand anything. Those who want water can come and pour."
Everyone continued to bury their heads in folding quilts.
Soon after, a whistle blew outside.
It was mealtime.
"Quick, follow me!"
With a wave from Lin Hui, everyone immediately followed him running downstairs.
Xu Da had originally wanted to call out, but he didn't expect them to be so self-motivated?
By the time he reached downstairs, the First Platoon had already lined up.
"Hurry up!"
"Move faster, all of you, you're so slow even when eating!"
"Look at the First Platoon, they've already formed their ranks!"
In the other Platoons, the Squad Leaders were still loudly urging the slow Recruits.
Xu Da stood proudly in front of the First Platoon's formation, looking triumphantly at the other Platoons.
"Too slow, reaction is too slow. Second Platoon Leader, Third Platoon Leader, why haven't you assembled yet? I've been waiting for a long time?"
"Not even enthusiastic about eating, sigh, what can I say."
The Second Platoon Leader and Third Platoon Leader turned around in anger and glared fiercely at the Soldiers behind them.
They were all Recruits, how could the difference be so great?
Soon, all the Recruits had assembled.
A Platoon Leader immediately shouted: "Everyone, all to the right... turn!"
Swish!
The First Platoon all turned to the right.
Although their movements were a bit messy, compared to the lazy appearance of the other Platoons, it looked much more comfortable.
"Quick march... march!"
The other Platoons walked in a disorderly manner, some were still talking and laughing in the ranks.
In the entire Recruit formation, only the First Platoon could basically keep their hands and feet in sync, and no one spoke the entire time.
Compared like this, the difference was immediately obvious.
At the entrance of the mess hall, Regiment Commander Zhou Zhongyi and several Company Commanders were already waiting.
Zhou Zhongyi saw from afar a team among the Recruits that stood out like a crane among chickens, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"The Soldiers in this Platoon are pretty good, aren't they?"
Zhang Jiantao was stunned because he saw that the leading Soldier was actually Lin Hui.
His mouth twitched, but he immediately said: "Regiment Commander, this is the First Platoon, the Squad Leader is Xu Da, he's very experienced!"
The Regiment Commander nodded in satisfaction: "Even good steel needs a good whetstone to be forged into a good knife! Not bad, this Platoon is not bad!"
Zhang Jiantao smiled awkwardly, but his eyes were fixed on Lin Hui.
What was going on with this kid? How were his movements so standard?
He was so meticulous, completely different from before.
If you didn't know, you'd think the leader was an Old Soldier.
Soon, the formation approached the mess hall, and the Platoon Leader immediately shouted: "Everyone shout out a couple of times to build momentum! One, two, three, four!"
While all the Recruits were still looking bewildered and confused about the situation, Lin Hui had already shouted out: "One, two, three, four!"
Hearing him shout, Chen Erhu and the others behind him immediately also shouted at the top of their lungs.
In the entire Recruit formation, the First Platoon were the first to shout, and their voices were very loud.
The other Platoons had to be reminded by their Squad Leaders before they sparsely followed suit and shouted the slogan.
"Not bad, not bad!"
The Regiment Commander nodded in satisfaction, pointing at the leading Lin Hui and saying: "He's already starting to look like a Soldier. This Soldier leading the First Platoon is capable."
Zhang Jiantao's eye twitched.
Didn't this kid come in through the back door?
How did he suddenly become so compliant?
He immediately said: "It still has to be Xu Da's experience. He can teach the Recruits so well as soon as they arrive."
Zhou Zhongyi nodded admiringly: "This kid is indeed good. Let him perform well. If he achieves results, I will personally submit that report."
"Yes, Regiment Commander!"
Zhang Jiantao was incredibly excited. It seemed like this was a sure thing.
He turned his gaze back to Lin Hui.
He really couldn't understand what was going on with this kid, how he suddenly changed like this?
Soon, the entire Recruit formation stopped at the entrance of the mess hall.
The neatest formation was still the First Platoon.
Zhou Zhongyi smiled slightly and said: "Recruit Comrades, I am the Regiment Commander of this Recruit Training Regiment. Welcome to 602!"
"602 is an Old Troop with a glorious traditional history. I hope that in the days to come, you will train hard and inherit our glorious tradition!"
"Yes!"
Everyone in the First Platoon shouted loudly after Lin Hui.
The Soldiers in the other Platoons were still looking at them dumbfounded.
"Practicing vocal exercises? Shouting so loud?"
"These guys must have something wrong with their heads?"
"They must be having a fit!"
The Squad Leaders of each Platoon looked extremely embarrassed.
Their own Soldiers were simply too far behind compared to the First Platoon.
Xu Da held his head high, his face full of a triumphant smile.
He could see the smile on the Regiment Commander's face very clearly.
These kids are giving him too much face!
Especially Lin Hui, he is indeed a talent and must be carefully cultivated and utilized.
As long as he is used to motivate the entire Platoon, their results are guaranteed to soar.
When they gain honor, getting promoted will be a certainty.
Zhou Zhongyi's gaze fell on Lin Hui, and a slight, almost imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Then he said loudly: "In the Troop, before eating, you must sing Military songs."
"Since you just arrived, you don't need to sing yet. Tomorrow during training rest time, the Squad Leaders will teach you."
"Alright, go in and eat."
Xu Da led the way, taking the First Platoon in at a quick march.
The others also walked into the mess hall one after another.
Upon reaching the dining table, Lin Hui quickly hinted: "Don't sit, absolutely don't sit, everyone stand properly!"
Wang Yong looked dissatisfied: "Talking as if it's true..."
Lin Hui smiled: "If you don't believe me, go ahead and sit. I'm not stopping you."
"I'll listen to Big Brother!" Er Hu stood honestly, and the others also stood up straight.
Wang Yong wanted to sit, but he gritted his teeth, and his backside still didn't land.
The Soldiers in the other Platoons didn't care so much. They sat down as soon as they came in.
At this moment, the Cadres also walked in one after another.
The Regiment Commander glanced around, his gaze finally falling on the First Platoon. He smiled in satisfaction, then sat down.
Zhang Jiantao hadn't thought much of it at first, but seeing the Regiment Commander's expression and looking at the mess hall, his brows immediately furrowed.
"All rise!" Zhang Jiantao shouted with an ashen face.
The Recruits were startled, all looking bewildered.
What was wrong?
Lin Hui smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth and winked at everyone.
