C13 When the queue is not long enough
It's not easy to be a Team Leader (1)
After the soldiers in the second row drank a bottle from each table, pretty much all the way until they drank a crate of beer. Li Wu's stomach was bloated and his head started to feel heavy. Right, at this moment, Li Wu no longer had any trace of fear. His fighting strength had already reached 200%, while his courage had already reached 100%. Although his balance was down to less than 50%, he still took out another bottle of beer from the box according to his will. After biting the lid off, he started to wobble back and forth towards Commander, who usually did not give him any face.
Li Wu went in front of the Commander and reported, "Reporting to the Commander! Can I have a drink with you? "
Commander looked at the Li Wu whose face was completely red, and replied: "You brat, your recent performance was not bad, you should stop drinking, if you get me into trouble again after drinking too much, then I can only send you to raise pigs!"
Li Wu tried his best to maintain a upright position. Even though he hesitated for a bit, he still did not give up and said, "Report to the Commander! "If I don't cause trouble, I'll drink a bottle with you!"
Taking advantage of the alcohol, Commander laughed out loud and picked up a bottle of wine. After biting open the bottle of wine, he touched it with Li Wu's bottle and started to pour everything into his mouth. After drinking an entire bottle of beer, Li Wu let out a long burp, making the originally stern Commander immediately laugh.
Seeing that the Commander was smiling, and that he was in a good mood, Li Wu felt that at this very moment, a chance had come. I... "I request …" The last few words did not come out for a long time, causing Li Wu to burp once again. The smell of alcohol slowly floated out from his mouth.
Commander shook his head and said, "If you have something to say, then fart. Don't release the poison mist in front of me!"
Smelling the pungent smell of alcohol, Li Wu's spirits rose again: "Reporting to Commander! I request to return to my original position! "
Commander looked at Li Wu with disbelief: "You said that you want to return to the second row to become a Team Leader!? Am I hearing things? " After hearing Commander's words, the previously noisy soldiers all stopped what they were doing and looked at Li Wu, who was holding an empty bottle of wine. This was the first time Li Wu dared to make a request to him.
Li Wu's face was filled with unswerving determination, and he said with a flushed face: "Reporting to the Commander! Yes! I request to return to the second row to become Team Leader! I promise I will not cause trouble for you this time, and I will not treat my own brothers like I did in the past. Comrade, I promise I will do this Team Leader well! "
Commander laughed coldly, "You still don't have the capital to make me trust you. Whether or not you can go back will still depend on your performance. Why do I feel like you are not qualified enough yet?"
After Li Wu heard Commander's words, he did not feel the same fear he did after getting scolded by Commander in the past, nor did he feel as though he was going to be slaughtered by Commander in the past. I do not have any capital that is worthy of your trust, but I feel that you will definitely believe in your warriors. I want to ask everyone present to be my guarantors, I promise you that I will definitely do well in this position, and will definitely become a competent Team Leader! If I can't do this Team Leader well, then I will go to the breeding station to feed the pigs! I hope Commander can give me this chance! "
Commander turned his gaze towards the soldiers present and said: "Brothers! He said that he wanted to become a competent Team Leader. Are you willing to give your guarantee for him, your comrade Li Wu from the original two rows? "
Li Wu nervously looked at the soldiers who remained indifferent... One minute passed … Two minutes passed … Still no one spoke. The long wait had completely made Li Wu prepare to give up, and the only thing left on his face was confusion …
It is difficult to be a Team Leader (2)
Just as Commander was about to come to a conclusion regarding Li Wu's request, one of the soldiers suddenly said: "Commander, we are willing to vouch for 2nd Platoon! After these few missions, we finally accepted him! Commander, give him a chance! "
Immediately after, other warriors also started to shout in unison, "Give 2nd Platoon a chance, we give him a guarantee!"
"Yes!" We'll give him a guarantee! "
Looking at the warriors in front of him, Li Wu's eyes started to shine with a grateful light. This was the first time he truly understood the meaning of the word 'comrade' ever since he came to Third Company. Comrades were not only friends in battle, but also brothers in life and death. Comrades were people who lived and died together on the battlefield. They could help each other while they lived. At the same time, they were people who could help each other without reservation in life and learning.
Commander changed his serious expression and suddenly laughed: "Since all of your requests have been unanimously approved, then I have no more objections. From tomorrow onwards, you can return to the second row and be your Team Leader! But remember, you are not allowed to cause trouble for me anymore. Bring all the soldiers in the second platoon to me! "
"Yes sir!" Li Wu excitedly saluted the Commander and the soldiers, "Thank you brothers! …."
With that, Li Wu opened another bottle of beer, and said to the soldiers: "I toast everyone! "Enough nonsense, thank you!" He then finished the bottle of beer in one gulp …
Coming out from the cafeteria, facing the full moon, Li Wu took a deep breath, shook his dizzy head, and took out a "Red Pagoda Mountain" from his right shoulder badge. Just as he was about to light it up, Wang Tao also walked out and patted Li Wu's shoulder, and said: "Great Team Leader Li, you are truly uninteresting, coming out and smoking instead of calling me."
If it was in the past, Li Wu would definitely scold Wang Tao a little and then switch to another place to smoke. But this time, Li Wu did not do so, he took out a new "China" from his left shoulder patch and handed it over to Wang Tao: "Comrade Wang Tao, are you generous again? This Team Leader is in a good mood today, so I'll give you a 'China'. This is not a pirated version, I usually don't even want to smoke it, so I'll give it to you! "
Wang Tao looked at Li Wu who had a hypocritical look on his face with disdain. He received the cigarette, lit it and laughed: "You brat, you learnt it quite quickly, there's a 'Red Tower Mountain' on the right side, give it to your comrades, and a 'China' on the left, give it to the leader. This is my patent, I want to sue you for stealing other people's intellectual property."
"Why, no? I can accept your challenge. Or is it a 1v1? " Li Wu had a cigarette in his mouth as he assumed a fighting stance. He looked like a rascal.
Wang Tao looked around, and said: "Take it easy on me, you are the type of person who would harm the face of a soldier. Hehe, why didn't you say you wanted to fight me? Are you worried that you won't be able to find someone to help you? Before I told you to come here, you had to get on good terms with the soldiers in your platoon, but you didn't believe me, now that you've been working hard in the cookhouse for a while, you know? "
Li Wu sucked in a deep breath of smoke and said, "That's right Old Wang, I know about it now. Do you think it's too late for me to change now? Can I do this Team Leader? "
Wang Tao laughed, and blew a smoke ring: "Weren't you so resolute before? Now you're giving in again? Let me tell you, you no longer have a way out, you can only do your best in the second row of Team Leader s. If you want to do something well, the key lies not in whether or not you can do it well, but in how you do it! "
Hearing that, Li Wu suddenly extinguished the cigarette in his hand, stood up and said: "Then from now on, I will do what I need to do!" With that, Li Wu walked out.
Wang Tao blankly asked: "Where are you going? The celebratory feast is not over yet! "
Li Wu replied: "I'm going to the outpost on the mountain. It seems like it's our second platoon's turn to be on duty this week. I'll go check out the soldiers on our behalf and have them come down to eat something …."
Li Wu waved his hand, and without looking back, he continued to walk forward, leaving Wang Tao alone outside the canteen's entrance, as he continuously "smoked".
Looking at Li Wu's back, Wang Tao sighed: "Looks like our Great Team Leader Li has truly changed."

It is difficult to be a Team Leader (3)
The border triad stationed at the southern border had a total of more than a dozen different sized outposts. It could be said that, other than the ports where the large and small vehicles came and left, the more than 100 kilometers of land were all managed by the Third Company.
It stood halfway up a tall mountain. Although it was only halfway up the mountain, its height was still not low. From the post tower s of the outpost, they could clearly see the large forest near the border and the small village that would smoke in the evening.
When Li Wu arrived at the sentry post, the moon was already high up in the sky, the sky was starry and the weather was good.
Seeing Li Wu climbing onto the post tower, the Fifth Squad Leader thought to himself, didn't this Team Leader Li go to the cookhouse? Was he reinstated? What was he doing here? Another one picking out bones from an egg? With a head full of questions, Fifth Squad Leader quickly saluted and said: "Reporting to Team Leader! Platoon Two, Fifth Class was on duty, and did not discover any abnormalities, so please give us your instructions! "
Li Wu laughed and said: Squad Leader, I have nothing to say, let me help you stand for a while, you guys go down and eat something before coming up. The celebratory feast is in full swing right now, and there's a lot of delicious food here. Those with wine and meat will be snatched away if they go too late! "
The little soldier almost drooled when he heard this, but he still forced himself to raise his head and keep staring straight ahead. Fifth Squad Leader smiled and said: "Thank you, Team Leader. We can go after you. This celebration feast was specially prepared for you guys. You go eat first, we'll come later."
Seeing that the Fifth Squad Leader was very determined, Li Wu turned to the little warrior who was pretending to be calm and asked: "Brother, do you want to go eat some?"
The little warrior shook his head and said, "Reporting to the Team Leader! "I don't want to..."
"Tell me the truth!" Li Wu said while pretending to be angry.
The little warrior was so scared that he lost his ability to speak. "Reporting … Report to Team Leader, I want to eat it! "
"That's right. Quickly go and eat. Your class monitor is unwilling to go. I'll stand guard for you and him here. You don't have to worry, go quickly!" Hearing that, Li Wu's expression immediately changed back to a smile, he patted the little warrior's back that had become stiff and laughed.
The little warrior excitedly gave the 95 assault rifle with only 5 rounds of bullets to Li Wu, "Thank you, Team Leader!" Saying that, he rushed down the post tower impatiently.
Li Wu took the spear and slung it across his chest. Facing towards the border, he started to stand guard for the little warrior under the bright moon. The Fifth Squad Leader looked in disbelief. The Li Wu in the past, unlike how he always carried himself as a Team Leader, always liked to strictly demand that the warriors in the second row were not smiling for the warriors. It was almost every day, he criticized them for being soldiers. But today, he became so amiable, acting like a dear brother in front of the little warrior. This made Fifth Squad Leader surprised, but also reminded him of when he had just joined the army.
Fifth Squad Leader stood straight next to Li Wu, also looking at the border not far away, and said: "Team Leader, this is the first time I have seen you walking so close to the warriors."
Li Wu laughed and said: "I should have done that a long time ago, it's just that I've only just realized today, that I definitely do not have a good impression in your hearts, right?"
The Fifth Squad Leader sighed and said, "To be honest, I used to hate you. I just felt that you just loved picking bones out of eggs and bullying us soldiers when you had nothing better to do. But I still admire your performance in the previous missions. You are accurate with your guns and you are not bad with your fighting skills. You are unlike any other city soldier or student soldier. Today I changed my mind about you. "
Li Wu looked at Fifth Squad Leader and asked, "Why?"
Fifth Squad Leader looked into the distance as if he was recalling something, and said: "You are the second Team Leader that I have seen since I was a soldier to stand as a guard. The first Team Leader that is like this is our current Commander. At that time, I had just joined the army, and the Commander was the new Team Leader that was assigned to me after I graduated from the military academy. I remember that it was Spring Festival and the sentry on the sentry post was very cold. My squad leader and I were standing at the sentry post, counting the stars, the company was having a party, I was homesick and wanted to go back to the company for the party, but I couldn't, I had to stay on duty, and after standing here for a while, my tears and snot came down. At this time, our Commander came to the sentry post. After wiping my tears, he stood guard here for me and told me to go back to the company for New Year's Eve meal. I am so happy, I just jumped and went back to the company, leaving the class monitor and Team Leader here to keep watch over the motherland … "
Li Wu was enchanted by his words, and said: "I really didn't think that the usually stern and cold Commander would also do such a thing."
Fifth Squad Leader laughed and said, "I also didn't expect that you would do the same. Team Leader, I have to change my mind, I believe that you will be like Commander in the future, and become a good Team Leader. We won't scheme you like we did in the future. "
Li Wu looked at the green waves in the forest and laughed from the bottom of his heart: "That's good, we will be good brothers in the future, good comrades … … No matter how difficult it is, I must work well with this Team Leader … "
