The temperature continues to rise south. The weather seems to be better after a rain. I see more sunshine and even give people the illusion of spring, although it clearly enters the coldest season.

At noon on the third day of training, the troops arrived at the north coast of Qiongzhou Strait half a day earlier than originally planned. Next to it is Xuwen New Port, the world's largest ferry port.

The troops camped in the coastal defense forest and spent a day and a half to conduct sea training. The next evening, the navy's landing craft flew to the south bank. The students' emotions fluctuated because the Spring Festival was approaching. The reason why Tian Wei would rather be punished and ran home to see it was related to the Spring Festival.

After the troops arrived at the International Tourism Island, there was only one day left before New Year's Eve.

It’s the New Year, I miss home, who doesn’t miss home?

After more than two days of adaptation, especially the saturated training on the first day, the students were at least mentally prepared when the intensity decreased the second day. Now there are some people who are comfortable and have no impact on everyone after one day and a half of the sea training.

On the other hand, the temperature on the north bank of Qiongzhou Strait is still acceptable. The Great Cold Tide has just passed. The temperature is more than ten degrees during the day, and it is relatively warm in the case of sunshine.

But for He Biting, Zhang Xiaoran, and Chen Xiao, sea training is a big challenge. They can swim, but they have not received armed swimming training in the army, and there is a certain gap with other students. They believe that the instructors should have special arrangements for them.

However, it is time to solve lunch. Today, each team will solve the problem of food by itself. The logistics support team provides dishes, and the students use carry-on cooking utensils to cook. The rice bag itself is one of the items carried by individual soldiers, and there is no shortage of rice.

He Biting and the other two naturally worked together with the female student class.

Zhang Xiaoran said to Lin Xia, "Squad Leader Lin, we Chen Xiao are good at cooking."

"No, no, really, no, just done just the same thing." Chen Xiao waved his hand and said.

Lin Xia smiled and said, "Chen Xiao, you three are responsible for cooking, we will set up a tent for you."

"Okay!" Chen Xiao smiled and agreed, picked up Xiaoqiu and He Biting, and Zhang Xiaoran looked for a place everywhere.

Two-piece aluminum basin is a cooking utensil, and there is nothing else. This aluminum basin is quite durable and has a strong recovery ability. It leaves a pit or something if it is knocked and hit. It can be restored by knocking with a wooden stick. It is also widely used. It can be used as a pot or as a washbasin for water. Of course, no one will use it to soak feet. It is light in weight and can also block rain when pressed at the mouth of the backpack.

Because it is often used to cook things, the appearance, especially the bottom, is black, and some traces are difficult to wash away. This is how the kitchen team takes the blame.

Chen Xiao picked the position and said, "The location of the picnic stove is very important. According to the field requirements, it must meet the hidden requirements and be easy to use, and it is still a bit difficult."

"Stop showing off, you know that we all know that we will do it. I mean, you hurry up and choose a location to build a smoke-free stove. It's already twelve o'clock. We can have some rest time to prepare breakfast and eat breakfast." He Biting said.

Chen Xiao pointed to the ridge in front and said, "It's here. The stove mouth is facing the wind, and it is covered with wet grass. The smoke will circle and slowly dissipate in the low place..."

"It's amazing, you dig it quickly, let's go find firewood." Zhang Xiaoran smiled and pushed Chen Xiao and went to search for firewood with He Biting.

Chen Xiao raised his butt and started digging smokeless stoves. His movements were extremely skillful. Before joining the army, he often went to the suburbs to have picnics with his friends. When he was a child, he followed a group of boys in the village to fight for the bride. She had too much experience. Now with the blessing of fortification construction technology, it was even more powerful.

But it is hard to find firewood.

Zhang Xiaoran was puzzled and said, "You can hardly see the dry trunks and branches, what can you do?"

There were lush and lush everywhere, and there was no sign of the northern trees withering and depressing everywhere. Even the fallen leaves were lush and lush, and they could not burn. He Biting looked around and found that other classes had encountered the same problem. Finally, they encountered a dry tree that might have been sick, and several classes rushed up to divide it up.

"When will such a thick tree trunk burn?" Zhang Xiaoran shook his head.

He Biting said helplessly, "The scenery is good, but it is not a good thing for us to do a good job. Let's go far and take a look."

The two walked through the coastal forest and walked inside. A large eucalyptus forest appeared in front of them, with some dead branches and leaves. This made them so excited that they immediately picked up the dead branches as thick as fingers, which were both easy to deal with and burning.

He Biting said, "Have you brought a backpack rope? Pick up more and give it to other classes."

“It’s right.”

Zhang Xiaoran took out the backpack rope from his shoulder bag and spread it on the ground. The two picked up a hundred and eighty kilograms and got stuck with the backpack rope. They found a straight wood as a shoulder pole as a forearm. They shouted and lifted it up and walked back with a humming sound. They didn't notice that a peasant woman was also picking up firewood not far away. Seeing their every move, they followed quietly.

The peasant woman wore a straw hat for fishermen and clothes made of coarse cloth. Her face and hands were full of traces of the working people. He Biting and Zhang Xiaoran didn't know why this eucalyptus forest had so many dead branches and leaves, because this was a forest land owned by one, and the nature of the sea defense forest was different.

Other families will not go to other people's forests to pick up firewood. Although it has been 2019, the tradition of burning firewood is still retained in some villages, and it is a good thing to save some money.

The peasant woman followed her for a while and realized that she was a soldier and two female soldiers. She wanted to chase her and scold them to put down the firewood, but she hesitated and continued to follow her. After passing the coastal defense forest, she suddenly realized that there were troops training beside the coastal defense forest.

"Wow, I've made so much? I can't finish it." Chen Xiao was frightened by a large bundle of firewood.

Zhang Xiaoran said, "You leave enough for us, and we will send the rest to other classes."

"One-fifth is enough, give them the others." Chen Xiao made a judgment quickly.

The peasant woman hid in the woods and watched for a while and turned around and left quietly.

The logistics support team distributed chicken, pork belly, celery, mushrooms, carrots, crucian carp, scallions, ginger, ginger, tofu cubes, chives, peppers, garlic leaves, and cabbage to each class... There are many ingredients, and each class can choose by itself, but the amount is limited, so you can take less or not.

To be honest, most students do not know how to cook. The cooking here is the ability to make a table of dishes with their own strength, rather than cooking the raw ones thoroughly.

The female students' class is happy because they have a Chen Xiao who is very skilled in cooking and is determined to be a cook. After getting the ingredients, Chen Xiao immediately had a menu in his mind and read it directly: "Crucian carp and tofu soup, mushrooms and chicken, and farm fried pork belly. I will add celery and stir-fry cabbage with chili. Three dishes and one soup is OK?"

"Yes, that's great!" Lin Xia nodded hurriedly, asking the soldiers to quickly put the washed ingredients they received, and said, "I've eaten dry food for three days, three dishes and one soup is great!"

The female students basically stared at the ingredients and their eyes were shining, and they wanted to rush up and start biting them.

Chen Xiao rolled up his sleeves and patted his chest and said, "Look at my chef's performance!"

She dug up the double stove, and the logic of cooking was very clear. She first put the rice and cooked rice, and put the ingredients for crucian carp and tofu soup aside to prepare. The other stove was used to stir-fry. First, heat the pan with peanut oil, wait for the temperature to rise, pour in the ingredients and stir-fry for one minute, and then pour in the cabbage.

"Fry cabbage first?" He Biting was her deputy and asked with interest.

Chen smiled and said, "Fry out the semi-finished product of cabbage first, and stir-fry it in the oil of pork belly for two minutes. The taste is amazing. It is my own fried method."

Zhang Xiaoran, who looked at Chen Xiao, said seriously, "Smile, you seem to have become a different person when cooking, and you are very elegant."

"You mean I'm suitable to be a chef." Chen smiled.

Zhang Xiaoran's observation was very detailed. Chen Xiao was usually a silly girl, like a carefree girl in the neighbor's house, with big breasts, butts, and straight stubbornness in his head. At this moment, he seemed to be full of posture. When he waved the long-handled spoon used as a spatula, he was quite as powerful as commanding thousands of troops.

"You are one step closer to the goal of the cook, congratulations." Zhang Xiaoran said with a smile.

Chen Xiao said, "I really want to be a cook, but the instructor said that military quality must be at least ranked among the top five in the company before it can be cooked at that time, which is difficult!"

"You will definitely be in the top five when you return after the training camp." He Biting encouraged.

"Well, I have confidence!"

Chen Xiaoxian threw the basin and even looked very good.

Her performance quickly attracted students from other classes. They all came to watch them for nothing and exclaimed frequently. This is what cooking skills are called cooking! Looking back at the dishes cooked in her class, the color will lose its appetite, let alone the one with all its colors, fragrance and flavor.

They are all big and rude. Young people nowadays have basically never cooked. It is amazing to be able to cook the ingredients and add salt after adding them. I have never seen Chen Xiao’s professional stir-frying method.

"Fry dogs!"

Seeing more and more people watching, Chen Xiao was so playful that he raised his long-handled spoon and learned Stephen Chow's movements in "God of Cookery". His posture and expression were seventy-seven-point similar, which made everyone laugh and applaud.

"Fry the Dragon Eighteen Fried!"

"Dragon slaying trouble!"

...

Even Li Shuai, who had just come over to see this scene, was amused. This girl was born with funny factors and was a humorous position everywhere. She was a collective atmosphere regulator. The optimist outlook on life was very obvious. Except for the time she broke up with her boyfriend, Li Shuai did not frown at Chen Xiao, let alone be angry. Even if she broke up with her boyfriend and ended her first love, she completely recovered in just two days, and she was very big.

Soon, the three dishes were fried and the rice was done.

The woman was careful. Lin Xia took the other female students to dig out a dining table, with four people sitting on the long side, two people sitting on the short side, and twelve people were just right. After putting the food on, everyone was ready to wash their bowls and spoons and waited for the meal.

Chen Xiao boiled another pot of water, and after it started, he put the ingredients in the crucian carp tofu soup and said, "It's okay to start the meal, and it's almost done with the soup. We mainly drink the soup, so let's boil it for a while, and it's a big tonic."

Seeing Chen Xiao winking and making eyes look, He Biting smiled angrily, and gave her a blank look and whispered, "You are so big and you are still repaired, aren't you afraid of bumping into the crawling tactic?"

"Go to you, Sister Ting, you have to drink more, look at your little hill." Chen Xiao replied.

Lin Xia asked everyone to have a meal. The soldiers couldn't wait any longer. Not to mention the soup, these dishes alone made them unable to stop. Not to mention the laughter, they were all full of color, fragrance and taste. No matter how bad it was, it would be a delicious food for them who had eaten dry food for nearly three days in a row!

A large pot of rice was quickly lost half of it, and Li Shuai was surprised to see the appetite.

"Instructor, eat with us, try my taste, oh, taste the taste of the dishes I cooked." Chen Xiao brought a bowl of rice and walked over and handed it to Li Shuai.

Li Shuai took it with a smile, "Where do you have more jobs?"

"I brought two, hehe." Chen Xiao said proudly.

The female students quickly gave up a seat. Li Shuai sat down and tasted the taste of the dishes seriously, nodding frequently, "It's delicious, it's up to the level of Wu Shenglong's squad leader."

"Is that so? Hehe." Chen Xiao was quite proud. This was her retention skill. It was more exciting to have received recognition from the instructor than to get a reward.

Chen Xiao quickly sliced ​​two bowls of rice, then ran over and stared at the crucian carp tofu soup. She didn't know that many people had their stomachs waiting for the crucian carp tofu soup. Looking at the white color, you know it was a good thing. Women care very much.

The female student class turned into a picnic, especially they dug a dining table that was enough to accommodate one class, which made other classes very ashamed. Digging such a large dining table was very laborious, and everyone wanted to retain their energy, so they wouldn't do other unnecessary things if they could be done.

So, except for the female student class, the other classes squatted and basically all sautéed... One pot of dishes and one pot of rice looks desolate, let alone taste, it is good to fill your stomach. There is even a class that produces a raw meal, and there is no way, so you can only eat it with your teeth.

In this session, the male students were obviously behind the female students, and the gap was too big. Although it was not included in the scoring content, the impression scores were definitely gone.

After Wang Xiaoqing and Liu Xiaojian walked around, they also shamelessly brought the bowl to the female student class with a bowl. After drinking a bowl of crucian carp and tofu soup, they became much better. Deputy Battalion Commander Zhao was a cadre after all, so he didn't have the nerve to come over, but he didn't treat himself badly and ran to the logistics support team to eat...

After eating, Li Shuai gave the troops 30 minutes of rest time, and the stove did not need to be backfilled, because there was still cooking at night and tomorrow, so the students had 30 minutes to arrange freely.

Just as everyone was lying in the tent taking a nap, the messy sound came from far and near...
Chapter completed!
