My Military Career in a Parallel World

Chapter 108 The last level of the recruit company!

It was around three o'clock in the afternoon. The recruits had been basking in the scorching sun for a long time, and finally their long-awaited leaders arrived.

As expected, the regiment commander and the political commissar were not present. After the two chiefs of staff and a group of officers took their seats, Jiang Chen and other recruits also entered in batches led by their respective platoon leaders.

Because of the assessment today, the tactical training ground has been expanded, so there is no need for several people to share one wire fence like before.

They lined up and waited for the examiner to give orders. There were two cadres next to them holding notebooks and stopwatches ready to time the test.

Jiang Chen and Zhang Meng were the first group to take the assessment because they performed best in tactical training. This was to set an example for everyone in Class 5 and also to ease their nervousness.

Climbing tactics are different from other training. It doesn’t mean that if you have good physical strength, you will get good results. It depends more on your proficiency and some other factors.

Needless to say, Jiang Chen's proficiency was simply accumulated through a large amount of time.

Zhang Meng benefited from his physique. He is only 1.7 meters tall and has a lean body. He has much more room to play under the tactical net than a strong man like Li Qiang, who is 1.9 meters tall and has broad shoulders and a thick waist.

The two men were ready, and at the command of the referee on the side, Jiang Chen rushed out in an instant, lay down with a gun in his hand one meter away from the barbed wire, crawled on the ground and swung his body quickly towards the bottom of the barbed wire.

Since joining the army, in the nearly three months, Jiang Chen has hardly wasted a minute. He trains with the main force during the day and enters the dream space for frantic training at night. Even during his rest time, he is not idle. He is either reading a book or practicing some less energy-consuming activities.

Jiang Chen is not a masochist, nor is he a master of self-discipline.

What keeps him going is the hope that every ordinary person who has experienced setbacks and achieved nothing desires.

The hope of transcending social classes, the hope of making a name for oneself!!

Jiang Chen is now extremely glad that he chose to join the army.

Only those who have truly experienced it understand how precious a relatively fair competitive environment is.

After three months and countless hours of accumulation, Jiang Chen's body has developed muscle memory for all the items in the recruit company.

The moment he touched the ground, even though his body was hurt by the sharp stones on the ground, Jiang Chen seemed to be unconscious.

He just lowered his head and crawled on his stomach, quickly passing under the barbed wire.

Because they crawled too fast, they raised a lot of dust, and the helmets of Zhang Meng and another recruit who were lagging behind him on both sides were covered with dust.

Outside the venue, several officers who came to watch the assessment of new recruits could not help but stand up, their eyes fixed on Jiang Chen.

As the most popular recruit in the recruit company, he caused a group of veterans to lose face a few days ago. Jiang Chen's name had already been on their list.

I don’t know how many company commanders beat their chests and stamped their feet, regretting that they did not strive for the position of company commander of the recruit company.

If they had not heard about what happened between the two chiefs of staff and Ge Hongtao in the regiment headquarters a few days ago, they would have taken out their phones on the spot and asked their battalion commanders to come over and rescue the person.

There was also a burst of exclamations from the other side of the recruit team, and each recruit's mouth was shaped into an O shape out of shock.

They knew that Jiang Chen's speed could be very fast. After all, he had never been slow in training. However, Jiang Chen's crawling speed at this moment was still far beyond their expectations.

They all knew Zhang Meng from Class 5. Not to mention other items, just in terms of tactics, his results would definitely rank among the top ten in the entire company.

However, less than ten seconds after starting, he was left more than a body length behind.

This is fucking perverted!!!

Seeing that Jiang Chen was getting farther and farther away from him, perhaps stimulated, Zhang Meng also began to speed up.

Among everyone in Class Five, he and Jiang Chen knew each other the earliest and have the best relationship.

Living in the same dormitory with bunk beds and spending time together every day, Zhang Meng is convinced by Jiang Chen.

However, as a comrade-in-arms and brother, Zhang Meng does not want to be left too far behind.

No one knew that he also had a dream of becoming a scout in his heart.

Ever since that day when he saw the fully armed reconnaissance company soldiers on the regiment's playground, Zhang Meng has been deeply attracted to them.

Later, Zhang Meng learned about the existence of the special forces from Li Qiang and others. He was even more excited and secretly made up his mind that if he had the chance, he would definitely go to the special forces to take a look! !

Zhang Meng's hometown is in the countryside, where there are not many entertainment activities. After entering high school, he came into contact with computer games and became addicted to them.

However, unlike others, Zhang Meng is not very interested in so-called online games. Instead, he likes to play some stand-alone games.

Especially single-player shooting games, Zhang Meng even went to discuss with his boss and asked him to help him download some game resources online.

Before joining the army, Zhang Meng always thought that the so-called special forces in the games did not exist in the country.

And now...

The other recruits who took part in the assessment were left far behind, and only Zhang Meng gritted his teeth and followed Jiang Chen.

It was clearly an assessment for new recruits, but it seemed to have turned into a battle arena for the two of them. Jiang Chen accelerated and Zhang Meng followed suit. Although there was still a gap, he never fell behind.

From the low pile to the high pile position, the two people changed their movements almost at the same time, from low crawling to sideways crawling.

Because of the dust, the recruits in the distance might not be able to see clearly, but Chief of Staff Feng and other officers sitting on the judging panel could see it clearly.

When switching actions, Jiang Chen was obviously more fluent and faster. More importantly, even when switching actions, he still maintained a very fast speed without wasting any time.

This made the chief of staff, who was always knowledgeable, couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Of course, Zhang Meng, who followed closely behind him, also attracted a lot of people's attention.

Although his speed was significantly reduced when switching actions, his overall performance was still outstanding, comparable to some veterans who had been in the army for one or two years.

"Seventeen seconds thirty-three, nineteen seconds twenty-one!"

The two arrived at the finish line one after the other. The referee next to them pressed the timer in his hand in time and told the final results of the two to his colleague who was recording the results nearby.

Jiang Chen was not surprised to hear his own result, but when the referee announced Zhang Meng's result, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Before this, although Zhang Meng's results were good, they were only around 20 seconds. Unexpectedly, today she achieved a full second improvement!

“Brother Chen, you…you…are too fast! I can’t catch up with you even now!” Zhang Meng supported herself on her knees, panting, and gave Jiang Chen a thumbs up while smiling.

"Haha, you're not bad either. You're almost catching up with the veteran in 19 seconds!" Jiang Chen also responded with a smile and a thumbs up.

"Haha... Good! Good boy, you really make me proud!" As soon as the two walked out of the training ground, Li Gang came to greet them.

"Seventeen seconds, haha. If you wait for me to leave, someone else will get into trouble!"

Faced with Li Gang's teasing, Jiang Chen did not answer, and he had no way to answer.

It's okay for veterans to tease veterans, but for a new soldier like you to tease your squad leader is a bit too much.

Don't forget that there are not only people from the recruit company in the training ground now. In addition to the officers on the judging panel, there are also assessors from the regiment headquarters.

These people are soldiers from different companies, including many veterans from the Third Reconnaissance Company.

Jiang Chen just smiled awkwardly and didn't respond.

After praising Jiang Chen, Li Gang looked at Zhang Meng next to him, his eyes also filled with surprise.

Unlike Jiang Chen, with his performance, especially after the 400-meter hurdles, Li Gang felt that he could face it calmly no matter how outrageous the result Jiang Chen ran.

But Zhang Meng's performance today really surprised and delighted him.

The 30-meter tactical barbed wire fence requires you to change one action every 10 meters, and you will pass if you complete it within 30 seconds.

Zhang Meng's 19 seconds was definitely not slow. In an ordinary company, it was enough to kill a large number of veterans who had been in the army for two or three years in seconds. Even in a reconnaissance company with many elite soldiers, it was not the worst.

This shows how much progress he has made this time.

"Hehe, I just thought that I shouldn't be left too far behind by the class vice-captain, so if I try hard..." Zhang Meng touched his head and answered with a silly smile.

"Okay, go back and have a rest. I'll treat you to some Coke later!"

"Thank you monitor!"

When they heard that there was Coke to drink, they saluted and thanked him immediately.

Because the venue had been expanded, the tactical assessment did not last too long and was completed in about an hour.

Perhaps it was because a leader was present, or perhaps Ge Hongtao had a change of heart.

After the assessment, everyone was not dismissed directly. Instead, Zhao Hongbin was asked to go to the regiment's medical room to find two military doctors to treat everyone's wounds.

What surprised the recruits even more was that, perhaps because the company commander forgot to remind them, the military doctor actually used iodine to disinfect them.

Although it still hurts a little when applied to the wound, it is obviously much better than medical alcohol.

After the tactical action test, only live-fire shooting and grenade throwing were left. Jiang Chen and others thought they could take advantage of today to finish the remaining items, but they didn't expect that they didn't receive any orders until the evening.

The next day, there were still no new orders issued, and even the training volume seemed to have returned to the level before the assessment. After working overtime for so long, the recruits could finally take a breath.

In the evening, after the news broadcast ended, on the way back, Li Gang suddenly turned his head and looked at them and said, "Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you that tomorrow is the last project of your new training. If you want to have a comfortable life, you'd better prepare in advance!"

"Ah? The last project? What is it? Aren't there still shooting and grenade tests left?"

Facing everyone's questions, Li Gang did not beat around the bush and answered directly: "At the end of each recruit company, there will be a field training. The last project I just mentioned is this. As for the shooting and grenade throwing assessments, the location is not at the regiment headquarters, but at the end of the training. You will know when the time comes."

"Field training?" After Li Gang's reminder, everyone reacted immediately.

We have been in the army for a long time. Although we are new recruits, we are not ignorant guys who know nothing.

Especially after the company started arranging them to stand guard and patrol, the new recruits had become familiar with the old soldiers in the patrol team and had also heard some gossip from them.

Among them, the last project of the recruit company is the long-distance field training.

What is long distance?

According to these veterans, anything less than a hundred kilometers is not considered a long distance!

When the recruits heard the news, they were extremely surprised.

At the same time, everyone was silently calculating in their hearts what a hundred kilometers meant.

Then, everyone's bodies stiffened instantly.

The minimum starting distance is 100 kilometers and there is no upper limit.

The entire journey is required to be walked without the use of any means of transportation, and they also heard that 90% of the journey is mountainous.

Oh my god...

Just thinking about it made everyone feel despair.

In order to cope with the long-distance field training that the veteran squad leader described as extremely terrifying, everyone sought advice from the veterans in the patrol team.

Therefore, everyone knows a lot of things that need to be paid attention to during field training.

Among them, the most important thing is the "insoles". If you want your feet to be more comfortable on the road and not get blisters on the soles of your feet halfway through the walk, you must buy sanitary napkins to pad them.

Sanitary napkins are a magic weapon for long-distance hiking. They absorb sweat, serve as foot cushions, and are comfortable to walk on. You can’t do without them if you don’t have anything else!

Of course, you can also buy some food, but the premise is that you cannot be detected.

"Fuck, deputy squad leader, Brother Chen! My dear brother, you must save my life!" Before everyone else could come to their senses, Chu Fei seemed to have thought of something, and hugged Jiang Chen in a plop, begging.

"Damn, he's still outside, you'd better be careful of the impact! Don't fucking make me be punished with you!" By the time Jiang Chen reacted, it was too late.

Chu Fei held his waist tightly and refused to let go no matter what.

"Deputy class leader, please save the child!"

"Just tell me, how can I know what you want if you don't tell me!" Jiang Chen tried to break free a few times but failed, so he could only say helplessly.

"Deputy squad leader, have you forgotten that all my money has been taken away by the squad leader? You must help me!" Chu Fei raised his head and said pitifully.

"Oh, I thought it was something else. Okay, can't I lend it to you?" Jiang Chen just remembered that Chu Fei seemed to have said before that all the money he brought was taken away by Li Gang and put in the baggage warehouse.

However, even after borrowing, Jiang Chen didn't have much left. If Li Gang hadn't lent him some money when he bought a watch, the two hundred yuan he had left would have been insufficient.

"Let me make it clear first. I don't have much left. I can lend you fifty at most. No more!"

Although fifty was a little less, Chu Fei did not dare to ask for more in this situation, and quickly thanked him: "Thank you, class vice-chairman!"

Given Chu Fei's family conditions, it is natural that he would not be short of money. The nickname "Jing Shao" was not given for nothing.

However, this guy had too much money on him at the time, a full two thousand yuan, and Li Gang couldn't turn a blind eye.

Others were not so unlucky.

When he was checked, Li Gang did not touch anything as long as the cash on him did not exceed 500 yuan.

As I said, the army is not a prison. Although it is harsh, it does not require control over everything.

Except for a few foolish people, everyone else secretly left some cash for themselves as a backup when they handed in their personal belongings.

And now, it comes in handy.

As for why Chu Fei didn't go find Li Gang and ask him to take him to Baokuli to get some...

Haha, didn’t you see that Jiang Chen, the deputy monitor, hasn’t paid back the money he owed?

Of course, squad leaders like Li Gang are not completely inhumane.

Want to go to the bag warehouse to withdraw money?

you can!

Go to the playground and run five kilometers with weights, then do three hundred runs, and then the squad leader can take you to the warehouse.

So, when Jiang Chen and others were about to go to the regiment supermarket to buy some goods, they saw the fully armed recruits running hard on the playground...
