    On the night of registration, Zhang Chengyuan moved into the recruits' dormitory in the military camp.  An example of a dormitory for recruits is two rows of large bunks. Each row sleeps 9 to 10 people. There is only a fist or two distance between each person. If you are not careful, you will kick or hit others.  Zhang Chengyuan is a tall man with broad shoulders. Although he slept well, he could not avoid being touched by the rough recruits on his left and right sides. Because he was too alert, he had a very restless sleep that night. The next day, he asked the team leader to sleep in a corner.  go.  But the military regulations are strict, and even this small matter cannot be accommodated, especially the recruits cannot be allowed to develop the bad habit of being able to bargain for everything. Therefore, the squad leader severely reprimanded Zhang Chengyuan and treated him as an outstanding bird to be slaughtered to other recruits.  After being scolded, Zhang Chengyuan, who was arrogant and arrogant, was naturally unhappy. However, when he realized that all the non-commissioned officers and veterans had similar attitudes towards recruits, and the verbal violence from his squad leader was the least severe,  Then he gave up the idea of ??teaching him a lesson secretly in the future.  Through this small incident, Zhang Chengyuan realized that in the military, human rights are sometimes really dispensable. Even if some exist, they must be greatly restricted.  The training life of recruits is really extremely difficult for most ordinary young people with average physical conditions. Many people fainted from exhaustion on the first day.  Zhang Chengyuan's team also fell several times that day.  Among the languid recruits, Zhang Chengyuan performed extremely well. Whether it was military posture or various techniques and tactics, he won first place in the first week of training assessment.  The team leader happily praised Zhang Chengyuan and took the initiative to move Zhang Chengyuan's bunk to the farthest corner. The other recruits also looked at him with admiration and no longer regarded him as a weak and useless entertainer.  Next, Zhang Chengyuan¡¯s performance became stronger and stronger. He was the best in almost all projects, and his overall performance ranked first every week.  When the five-week recruit training was over, at the graduation ceremony of the recruit training camp, Zhang Chengyuan received the highest medal for recruits called the "Training Center Director's Award" from the hands of the top officer of the training center without any dispute, and received the "Special Grade"  "Warrior" title.  The reason why he works so hard is definitely not to stand out among the recruits or to impress the superior officers. It should be noted that no matter how outstanding the Korean conscripts are, as long as they do not become volunteers, there is no possibility of promotion and wealth.  It is impossible to apply for early retirement. At best, you can choose a slightly easier position.  In this case, how could he do such useless work?  His main purpose for doing this is to let his relatives and friends see his current situation on the official website of the training center and the army's promotional TV programs, so that they can feel more at ease.  Of course, it would be better if the media could pay attention to the training of this period of recruits and report on his outstanding performance so that the public and his fans would be more impressed and favorable to him!  Fortunately, Park Byung-yeol's reaction was definitely fast enough. After learning about Zhang Chengyuan's excellent performance in the training camp in advance, he promptly contacted some reporters from TV stations, newspapers, and magazines with whom he had friendship, and reported the matter with all his strength, temporarily letting Zhang Chengyuan's  The popularity remained for some time.  After completing the recruit training, Zhang Chengyuan was assigned to serve in the frontline unit of the Army's 15th Division stationed on the border in Hwacheon County, Gangwon Province.  Prior to this, his superior had recommended him to participate in the selection of the Marine Corps.  The Marine Corps is known as the elite division and is one of the most valued military services in South Korea. In recent years, it has given great support and has continued to expand the ranks of the Marine Corps. However, the Marine Corps is strictly selected and the training is much more difficult than that of the ordinary military. Therefore, the number of soldiers has increased year-on-year.  There are not enough years, so various recruit training camps are often asked to encourage outstanding recruits to participate in the selection.  However, although this kind of assessment was just a piece of cake for Zhang Chengyuan, he had neither a strong love for Korea nor the vanity of becoming the strongest unit in the army, so he refused without hesitation.  Regarding his refusal, the superior could not force him to go due to military management regulations. Besides, as an army officer, who really wants to let the athletes in the army serve in the navy?  Zhang Chengyuan is unwilling to join the Marine Corps because under the current situation, being in the Army is safer and easier than being in the Navy.  On the sea, due to serious differences between North Korea and South Korea in the demarcation of maritime boundaries, the two sides have each drawn a water boundary that is not recognized by the other side, which has triggered countless conflicts and many small-scale naval battles.  Just three years ago, in June 1999, the largest naval battle since the armistice of the Korean War broke out between the South Korean Navy and the North Korean Navy.  Although South Korea suffered very little losses in this naval battle and took advantage, there is no guarantee that South Korea will not suffer casualties when a larger-scale maritime conflict occurs one day in the future.  Compared with this, land is relatively safer because it is separated by the Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea. At least after being attacked, Zhang Chengyuan's chance of survival on land is much higher than that on the ocean, or it is easy to survive  An island with a blocked escape route.  Two months later, June 2, 2002On the 9th, another naval battle broke out between North Korea and South Korea. This time there were casualties in South Korea. A South Korean high-speed boat was sunk. Four people, including the captain, died, nearly 20 people were injured, and one person was missing.  After learning the news, Zhang Chengyuan, who was serving in the Army, said he was lucky in his heart. He was glad that he had not transferred to the Marine Corps. Otherwise, he would have been overwhelmed, exhausted, and even exhausted by the sudden increase in surface surveillance missions.  We also have to worry about whether artillery fire from the north will suddenly strike in the middle of the night.  On land, North Korea and South Korea have not fought a war for more than ten or twenty years. Even after the naval battle, Zhang Chengyuan's daily vigilance mission was not very tiring, and he did not have to worry about being suddenly attacked by North Korea one night.  Killed by artillery fire.  But just after a few days of rejoicing, Zhang Chengyuan became unlucky. In a shooting incident, he almost lost his life.  And what surprised and shocked him was that the ones who shot at him and his dozen comrades were not enemies sneaking up from the north, but colleagues in the army at the same post.  In the South Korean army, because it has inherited some bad traditions from the Japanese army, it is common for superiors to bully subordinates and veterans to bully new recruits.  Although Zhang Chengyuan sometimes saw some recruits being bullied, a scene like this flashed through his mind: One day a soldier couldn't help but pick up a gun and beat several subordinates who had repeatedly beaten, insulted, and corporally punished their subordinates for no reason.  The outpost sergeant was beaten and killed, but he never thought that this scene would actually happen in reality, and he was almost killed.  What happened that day happened around 2 o'clock in the morning. Zhang Chengyuan, who often woke up three times a night, vaguely realized that someone walked lightly to the door of the room. He thought it was his comrade who had just returned to the camp from a night patrol.  He didn't pay attention, but then he heard a very special and familiar sound. He immediately opened his eyes and saw a black thing that looked like a grenade flying in.  At this extremely urgent moment, Zhang Chengyuan¡¯s soul was activated instantly, allowing him to instinctively make first aid actions. He reached behind his head and threw the pillow towards the grenade flying towards him, knocking it out of the door.  The entire action, including the reaction time, took no more than a second. There was just a loud "bang" sound, and the grenade exploded.  The man outside the door also reacted very quickly and ducked away without being injured.  As soon as Zhang Chengyuan heard that there was no scream, he immediately realized that the danger had not passed yet. He immediately jumped off the bunk, ran to the door as quickly as possible and squatted down.  At this time, the officers and soldiers who heard the explosion also woke up and immediately got up and rushed out of the room to check what happened. They had no idea that there was an assailant hidden at the door. If they rushed out rashly, they might die at any time.  Before Zhang Chengyuan could shout loudly to tell his comrades to be on guard, a gun barrel had been inserted into the door, and gunshots rang out immediately, followed by loud screams.  Zhang Chengyuan didn't bother to look behind him, he swooped forward, grabbed the gun body, and at the same time struck the murderer's arm that was pulling the trigger with a lightning-like punch.  Then, before the murderer could scream, the bones in his arm were broken, and then the gunfire stopped.  Zhang Chengyuan kicked the murderer away with another heavy kick. He immediately turned the gun and pointed it at the murderer. He then retreated into the dormitory to observe the surrounding situation to prevent other accidents.  The matter is almost over here.  Within ten minutes, the military police arrived at the scene and immediately took away the severely injured perpetrator, as well as Zhang Chengyuan and several other people present.  Fortunately, after understanding the situation, Zhang Chengyuan was released, but was strictly ordered by a certain officer not to reveal anything until the matter was settled.  It was later learned that the murderer was a first-class soldier surnamed Jin at the post where Zhang Chengyuan was located. He was dissatisfied with the insult from his superior officer and made such an impulsive move in a moment of emotion.  Soon after, the soldier was sentenced to death because the shots he fired killed a noncommissioned officer and wounded several soldiers. The crime was too serious.  It is worth mentioning that the noncommissioned officer was one of the soldiers who usually liked to abuse the soldier.  When something like this happened, although he was commended for his bravery and his military rank was promoted to a first-class soldier two months in advance, Zhang Chengyuan felt very bitter in his heart and felt that such an army was really not worth staying for one more day.  Although the perpetrators were severely punished, the ugly military traditions and lax military management that caused the incident have not changed much. Similar things will definitely continue to happen in the South Korean military.  In addition, he also felt a little worried, fearing that similar things would happen to him again. Although he was able to escape this time, he might not be so lucky next time.  During the next year and nine months of service, Zhang Chengyuan worked in fear every day. He had to perform tasks to guard against the infiltration of North Korean enemy agents, and he also had to be wary of the gunfire from his colleagues around him that might one day get out of control.  To such an extent, he could only relax temporarily during a limited number of vacations.  If he hadn't been mentally strong and physically strong, it would have been really difficult for him to survive this period. What happened to him later??The military life that I don¡¯t want to look back on.
