68: Chapter 68: The Little One Performs Military Boxing!
"Su Han, why did you bring this child into the military base?"
Liu Yong whispered to Su Han, "According to regulations, you're a Private; you're not allowed to bring family members to stay in the barracks."
Su Han smiled, "A Private can't, but an officer should be able to, right?"
Everyone: "???"
Su Han smiled, "Do you all have that little faith in me? Coming back this time, is it possible I won't even get commissioned?"
Everyone immediately realized.
Liu Yong slapped his forehead, "My brain! How could I forget about that?"
"Before you participated in the All-Army Grand Competition, the Regiment Commander was already going to have you commissioned."
"Now that you've achieved such great results in the competition, being commissioned is naturally a done deal."
"If you can be commissioned directly, then having a family member stay for a while won't be a problem."
"However..."
Liu Yong looked at Xiao Budian, "She's so small, who's going to look after her? Our company's training schedule has been quite tight lately."
Su Han said, "Squad Leader, you don't need to worry about that. She won't be staying with our regiment."
"Not staying with our regiment? Then where will she stay?"
Everyone was stunned.
Liu Yong looked at Su Han, an ominous premonition rising in his heart: "So, Su Han, are you being transferred?"
As soon as those words were spoken, everyone immediately became tense.
"Brother Han, you're not really leaving, are you? What will I do if you leave!" Wang Hao said anxiously, "I'm still waiting for you to come back and teach me equipment skills!"
"Don't go, Brother Han! If you leave, what will we do when those little punks from the 8th Company come to bully us again? Who will help us beat them back!" Zhao Xiaohu was also anxious.
Su Han said calmly, "Who told you I was leaving?"
"I just have a mission and need to leave for a while."
"My official post is still with the regiment."
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then how long will you be gone?"
Su Han thought for a moment and said, "A year at the shortest, maybe three years at the longest."
For an excellent special operations assault team to go from rookies to elites, it's impossible without at least a year.
Not to mention, it's a Women's Special Operations Assault Team.
The effort required would be even more than training male soldiers!
Hearing this, everyone's faces darkened.
What the hell is the difference between that and just leaving?
Liu Yong smiled slightly, patted Su Han's shoulder, and said, "Before you participated in the Grand Competition, we actually all knew that you would leave sooner or later."
"With your strength, staying in the 356th Regiment would be a huge loss for the military and the country!"
"As your squad leader, I'm very proud to have a soldier like you. Although..."
Liu Yong gave a slight bitter smile, "Your skills weren't learned from me."
Su Han said seriously, "Squad Leader, no matter where I am in the future, you will always be my squad leader."
Liu Yong's nose twitched slightly, and he nodded with a somewhat choked voice.
"Alright! It's rare for you to be back, let's not talk about these sad things."
"Take the child to the barracks to rest first; we need to continue training!"
Just then, Xiao Budian suddenly shouted, "Xiao Budian wants to participate in training too!"
Zhao Xiaohu joked, "Xiao Budian, with your tiny body, can you even hold a gun? Be careful not to get pinned down by it and unable to get up."
Xiao Budian pouted and shouted, "Who says I can't! I'm very strong too! My Great-grandfather taught me Military Boxing at home! I'm a member of the PLA now too!"
Everyone laughed, "Wow! So impressive? Then, little PLA comrade, can you perform Military Boxing for us?"
Xiao Budian raised her proud little head, "Of course!"
"I saw you guys practicing just now, and your moves weren't very standard!"
"None of you are as good as me!"
"Hahaha... okay! Then show us!"
"I will!"
Xiao Budian stood in the center of the field, her hair in two pigtails, wearing children's camouflage clothes, her little face tense with a serious expression.
"Everyone, attention! Stand at attention!"
She shouted the command in a milky voice, her small hands behind her back, imitating an officer's manner perfectly.
The soldiers of the 7th Company held back their laughter, standing in a circle to watch.
Wang Hao covered his mouth, his shoulders shaking, "This little girl actually looks the part."
"Prepare—"
Xiao Budian suddenly dropped into a standard horse stance, her small fists clenched, her eyes instantly becoming sharp.
"First form! Bow Stance Punch!"
"Ha!"
With a crisp shout, Xiao Budian's right fist lunged forward, the movement clean and sharp without any hesitation.
The soldiers who were laughing just a moment ago suddenly went quiet.
Liu Yong's eyes widened, "This movement... it's more standard than many recruits!"
"Second form! Throat-piercing Snap Kick!"
Xiao Budian's left palm thrust forward like a blade, while her right leg snapped up, toes pointed straight, reaching half a meter off the ground.
"Holy crap!" Zhao Xiaohu exclaimed, "That kick height is even more standard than mine!"
On the field, Xiao Budian got more and more into it, every move and style full of vigor.
Although her range of motion was small due to her height, every detail was precise, completely unlike what a six or seven-year-old child should be capable of.
"Tenth form! Turn and Lock Arm!"
Xiao Budian suddenly made a beautiful turn, grabbing the arm of an imaginary enemy in a standard over-the-shoulder throw movement.
Although she couldn't actually throw anyone due to her lack of strength, the technical execution was perfect.
"This..." Liu Yong looked at Su Han, his voice trembling slightly, "Su Han, did you teach her?"
Su Han smiled slightly, "The Su Family descendants start practicing martial arts at age three. I modified this set of Military Boxing slightly to make it more suitable for her age."
On the field, Xiao Budian had reached the final form.
"Sixteenth form! Strike Waist and Lock Throat!"
Her small body lunged forward, her left hand reaching out like a claw while her right fist was pulled back to her waist, her entire aura suddenly becoming fierce.
"Finish!"
With the final movement completed, Xiao Budian stood at ease, her small chest heaving, fine beads of sweat appearing on her forehead.
The training ground was silent.
"Clap, clap, clap—"
Zhao Xiaohu was the first to applaud, and then the entire 7th Company erupted in thunderous applause.
"That was amazing!" Wang Hao rushed forward and picked up Xiao Budian, "Xiao Budian, you're better than half the people in our company!"
Xiao Budian raised her little face proudly, "Of course! Great-grandfather said I'm a martial arts prodigy!"
Liu Yong walked over to Su Han's side and whispered, "Su Han, is the Su Family's martial arts heritage... always this freakish? Even a child this small..."
Su Han smiled but didn't say anything.
