"Today is the first day, so take a good night's rest. Get up at six o'clock tomorrow morning and start training. Disband on the spot!"

The captain still didn't introduce himself. After speaking, he turned around and left. The relaxed attitude of his leisurely stroll made people jealous, as if today's training was really just a warm-up.

However, Renly didn't have the energy to be jealous of the captain at this time, because the body and soul seemed to be separated, and he could feel the pain in the muscles before. Every movement consumes the strength of the whole body. He needs to go back and lie down, and if he can, he doesn't want to eat dinner - but now his stomach is swearing, and the sandwich at noon has already been digested.

"Hey, You!"

There was a hoarse to a bit sharp voice behind him. Just two simple words could feel the exhaustion of the body. That kind of stern and impetuous mood could not be concealed.

Renly's footsteps didn't stop, he didn't think he was calling him, and he didn't name him, although he could recognize Richard's voice.

"Hey! I said you, the little white face who shows off chrysanthemums/flowers!" Richard was a little exasperated. He was holding a breath in his heart, but now he has exhausted all his patience because of the long training, and he burst out regardless. , "Did you have an affair with the officer? You knew that there was training at the beginning of today, why didn't you tell us? Do you just want to see us embarrassing?"

Although his mood was impetuous, Richard still had some cleverness and accurately grasped the psychology of other people. Most of the people who did not change their military uniforms in time, with a few simple words, drew a lot of allies for themselves. Get up and put pressure on Renly.

No one said a word, but Renly could clearly feel that a lot of eyes were falling on him hot and sharp. He didn't care and was about to move on, but Rami, who was beside him, stopped and slightly He looked around in panic. Obviously, Rami knows better than Renly how bad it is to offend her co-workers on day one.

Renly's footsteps couldn't help but stop where he was, then he turned dignifiedly, and his eyes fell on Richard.

Richard was really embarrassed at this time, the dark blue shirt on his body had long been unable to distinguish the color, the stains on his forehead and cheeks looked like camouflage makeup, his bare feet were scarred, blood, fresh meat and mud were mixed Together, it is terrible, and there is absolutely no smugness when we just met.

"Sir, please call me sir!" Renly's first sentence immediately condensed the atmosphere of the scene, and everyone's eyes swayed back and forth between Renly and Richard, and then they realized that, Renly was a private first class, while Richard had no rank. Although it is said that the first class still belongs to the ranks of the soldiers, even in the army, the soldiers live on a friendly and equal basis; but at this time, the rank is the rank.

Richard remembered the words of the colonel before the training started, and his face suddenly became more and more ugly.

"I'm not obliged to tell you any information, because you're not my little white face." The spring-like smile on Ren Li's face seemed incompatible with everyone's embarrassment and daze, but the vulgar but humorous words made everyone feel He laughed in a low voice, "Or, are you ready to sell your ass/stock?" After a slight pause, Ren Li's long and narrow eyes flashed with a gleaming halo, and then disappeared in an instant. Like a demon whispering, "However, I am a picky person."

"Haha!" Everyone burst into laughter, no one cared about Richard's face, and clapped and laughed. However, the consequences were obviously serious - many people began to cough violently, and their grinning expressions clearly showed their pain. At this time, everyone reacted. Compared with Richard's life and death, they should go back to rest first. This is the most important thing.

As a result, the crowd of onlookers dispersed one after another. Richard's face was so red that he almost dripped blood, but he couldn't say a word. He could only struggle like a tortoise landing on his back.

Renly moved slowly forward with his tortoise-like pace again. A kid like Richard wasn't worth the effort.

"Sword Comes"

After a while, Lamy caught up with the panting, these simple steps are really a huge burden for the current physical condition, "Our barracks are not in this direction, you are going in the wrong direction." Lamy A friendly reminder that Renly was clearly going in a different direction than the others.

Renly raised his chin and gestured to the third barracks not far away, "My destination is there." Lamy didn't know, so Renly explained, "Our beds are only bed boards, at least we should have a piece of cloth to cover. Cover it up?"

Such a humorous explanation made Rami grin.

The two people dragged their tired bodies and arrived at the No. 3 barracks. Sure enough, someone was already waiting inside, and Renly and Rami were the first to arrive. "You guys responded very quickly." The soldier who was handing out uniforms was still in front of him. With a kind smile, "It seems that you have had a very bad day."

Ren Li shrugged, but found that the muscles in his shoulders were sore, and the sparse eyebrows couldn't help but tangle together, which made the other party chuckle, and the smile on the corner of Ren Li's mouth became more helpless, "For you guys, this Just an ordinary day."

The other party smiled and nodded, "It's not even a day. Sometimes, in just an hour, you'll feel like you've walked back and forth between heaven and hell."

"Like the 'full metal case'?" Renly asked curiously.

The other party paused and thought about it seriously, "The movie is 50% of the real situation." Judging from the expression, this is already a high evaluation, "However, it is more like a 'field platoon', rather than 'full metal casing'."

"So, you participated in the Vietnam War?" Rami, who was standing next to him, also interjected curiously.

As a result, both Renly and the soldier laughed. Rami didn't know why. Renly explained, "The Vietnam War ended in 1975." Impossible to have participated in the Vietnam War.

Lamy scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and the soldier gave a positive answer, "The Gulf War, and then I went to Iraq again."

Renly understood instantly. In 2003, the United States launched a war against Iraq, dragging the entire United States into an endless quagmire. Obviously, after the Gulf War, the soldier in front of him participated in this war again.

The soldiers sensed the understanding in Renly's eyes. The two brief meetings were only the details of those eyes and limbs, but it showed the fact that Renly had done solid preparations, not just for the "Pacific War". , but really understand the war.

"Tim-Barneys, Private First Class." The soldier extended his right hand in a friendly gesture.

"Eugene Sledge, Private." Renly also stretched out his right hand, and the two shook hands gently in the air, but Tim didn't let go immediately, a smile appeared in his eyes, and Renly immediately Will come over, "Renly-Hall, commoner." This made Tim look up and laugh heartily.

Rami, who was standing beside him, didn't know what was going on. He just stared at the brief exchange between the two of them with round eyes. He didn't want to, but Renly's voice rang out, "Rami Malek, it should be a civilian too. Bar."

Then Rami saw Tim's right hand stretched out towards him, and he quickly took it. "Nice to meet you, I mean, sir! Merriell-Shelton." Answered, making Tim smile and nod.

Tim handed over the bedding to Renly and Rami, and then said meaningfully, "This is boot camp, don't take it lightly, they won't relax your standards just because you're actors. So far, it's just the beginning. "

Renly had a hunch that Tim wasn't just talking about the next nine days of practice.

They left Barracks No. 3 with the bedding in their arms, and then saw other people dragging their tired bodies out of the barracks one after another. They finally realized that they had no bedding. If they didn't want to sleep on the plank tonight, they would only Can move their sore body again, "training-rest-moving-rest", this tossing mode almost consumed their last bit of energy, and the dejected appearance looked like a zombie siege in "The Walking Dead" , really spectacular.

In comparison, Renly and Rummy suffered, but at least they didn't struggle.

Back in Barracks No. 8, Richard was lying on the wooden board, half-dead, humming and chirping like a ravaged little white rabbit; in addition, there were a few people sitting on the bed reluctantly, looking at the empty space The bed board was in a daze, it seemed to stop motionless, and the brain was completely caught in a shutdown.

Renly placed the bedding on the bed, and Rami settled in the empty space on Renly's right. He simply spread the quilt and sheets, and then Renly lay down directly, but even when he lay down, the pain in his back began to surge, he clenched his teeth and relaxed, and after a short period of pain, he finally felt relieved. , and then the intuition of the feet came back, and the taste was simply too ecstasy.

"I think I'm a fool now." A self-deprecating voice came from the left hand, followed by a chaotic sound of rumblings. Renly turned his head and saw two huge twenty-nine-inch suitcases. , firmly blocked the corridor between the beds, and the behemoth couldn't find a place to put it at all, "James... No, Robert Letzy." The other party then introduced himself, "I'm not used to sudden Changed the name in between."

"Eugene Sledge," Renly said friendly. "Or Renly." He pulled the corners of his lips at James Badge Dyer and smiled, knowing that this was the best time to socialize. , but the exhausted brain couldn't work at all, and fell into a state of sleep groggy, without even struggling with the eyelids.

James looked at the other actors who were wailing all over the place, looked at Renly who had just fallen asleep, looked at the suitcase that he couldn't find, and finally opened the bed and lay down and closed his eyes.
