Chapter 219 The award ceremony is over and the group won third-class merit!
Just as Ge Hongtao and his companions were about to continue asking questions, Chief of Staff Feng Yao, Commander of the Reconnaissance Battalion Lei Zhenjun, and the instructor of the Reconnaissance Battalion Tian Zhiqiang, a lieutenant colonel and two majors walked in side by side.
The noisy discussions in the auditorium disappeared instantly, and several company commanders and instructors returned to their respective teams.
The award ceremony officially began.
First is the group award.
The third and second companies each have ten squads, the big brother company has slightly more people with a total of eleven squads, and the police detective company has been expanding in recent years and has as many as twelve squads, and most of them are fully staffed.
The strength of one company is almost equivalent to that of one and a half companies of the reconnaissance battalion.
The four companies together have a total of forty-three squads, about four to five hundred people.
Only the top ten classes in terms of comprehensive scores in this assessment can receive honors and awards.
First of all, the top ten to top three teams will be awarded the honorary title of excellent class.
As for what is the comprehensive score.
It's not just the team score that matters, but also the individual scores of the soldiers in the squad.
Of course, since it is a group award, the team's share will naturally be larger.
In order to maintain suspense, except for the chief of staff and three school-level officers, Lei Zhenjun and Tian Zhiqiang, everyone else, including the four company commanders and instructors, did not know the results of their respective company's participating teams in advance.
"First of all, I would like to express my warmest congratulations to all the soldiers who performed well in this year-end assessment..."
"Now, please welcome the tenth winner of this assessment's group award, the third squad of the first platoon of the Flying Eagle Reconnaissance Company, the ninth winner of this assessment's group award, the seventh squad of the third platoon of the Flying Eagle Reconnaissance Company, and the eighth winner of this assessment's group award, the fifth squad of the second platoon of the Mountain Tiger Reconnaissance Company..."
One by one, the classes were called to go on stage.
The Flying Eagle Reconnaissance Company is the external designation of the Police Detective Company.
Among the seven "excellent classes" award-winning places, the Police Detective Company actually occupied three places, and the fourth, ninth and tenth places were all from the Police Detective Company.
On the reconnaissance battalion side, the first company was worthy of being the big brother among the three companies, and its performance was second only to the police detection company. Two classes won excellent results of fifth and seventh place respectively.
The second and third companies each only received one spot in the excellent class.
The second team ranked higher and took sixth place.
The Sanlian team only got eighth place.
Seeing the ranking comparison on the field, Shen Guofu and the first company commander Liu Dajun were the happiest. Although the second company commander Cai Yaohua felt a little unhappy, he could barely accept it when he saw that his little brother from the third company was ranked below him.
As for our Captain Ge, his face was naturally not very good when faced with this result.
If I hadn't thought about the top three not being announced yet, I would probably have lost my temper by now.
As the chief judges of this simulated combat assessment, the Chief of Staff and Lei Zhenjun went on stage to personally present awards to the winning teams.
"Comrades, the glory belongs to the past, and the future is a long way to go. In the new year..."
After the award ceremony for outstanding classes was over, the instructor Tian Zhiqiang came on stage and gave some polite remarks, and then began to award the top three students.
"Now please invite the third place winner of this assessment, the third squad of the first platoon of the Mountain Tiger Reconnaissance Company, to come on stage to receive the award!"
"Fuck! Third, squad leader, we are third!"
When the rankings were announced, everyone, including Tang Junjie, Hu Kai, and the two monitors/deputy monitors Li Gang and Jiang Chen, couldn't help but cheer.
The tenth to fourth are just honorary titles for an excellent class, while the top three are real third-class collective merits.
One is a commendation, the other is merit. It goes without saying which one is more important.
Collective merit is different from individual merit.
Unless personal merits can meet the requirements for promotion, in most cases the individual will benefit from preferential treatment in terms of retirement placement, etc.
For example, adding points to the quantitative score will provide better job placement opportunities, etc.
Collective merit, on the contrary, is more reflected in the present, or more precisely, during the period of service.
Not to mention the sense of honor and cohesion that collective merit brings to all members, with this collective third-class merit, the three members of the third squad will obtain certain priorities in subsequent non-commissioned officer renewals, unit resource acquisition, task allocation and other aspects.
For example, it is easier to obtain the allocation of advanced equipment, the allocation of training resources, etc.
However, the corresponding third-class collective merit will not bring direct benefits to the individual award-winning members, and will not affect the quantitative score after retirement like the individual third-class merit.
However, this is enough.
With this collective third-class merit as a foundation, the success rate of contract renewal for Tang Junjie, Hu Kai, Zhang Ming and others has increased by at least 30%.
Including Corporal Lu Xingwang, as long as he nods, he will definitely have a chance to renew his non-commissioned officer contract at the end of the year.
Of course, it is not difficult for a first-term non-commissioned officer to sign a contract as long as his performance is not particularly bad.
For example, Su Yu.
As long as you perform well and want to stay in the army, you can basically sign a contract.
The real difficulty is from phase one to phase two.
If a first-term non-commissioned officer wants to sign a second-term contract, it is not enough to just perform well. Unless he is an elite soldier or has the potential for technical arms, it is still difficult for an ordinary soldier to sign a second-term contract.
As for the second and third periods, they are basically either deputy monitors or monitors.
Going further than that is not something that ordinary soldiers can pursue.
To reach the threshold of the fourth term of non-commissioned officers, one must either be a special talent or an outstanding soldier in a technical-related position. Few ordinary soldiers can sign up for the fourth term.
As for the fifth and sixth phases...don't even think about it if you don't have a row of medals on your body...
When Ge Hongtao heard the instructor call out the name of Class Three, his dark expression finally eased.
It may be a bit exaggerated for a collective to be awarded three honorary titles with the third-class merit, but there is definitely no problem in getting two.
At the same time, the comprehensive results of Class 3 were also announced.
Team score: 94 points.
In the shooting test, he lost five points because of accidentally hitting the hostage target, and another point was lost for command decision-making.
It wasn't that there was a problem with Li Gang's command, but Jiang Chen, who was in charge of coordination, reacted a little slowly, causing a momentary pause in the change of tactical formation.
Fortunately, he reacted in time and made adjustments, and it did not cause any impact, so he was only deducted one point as a warning.
As for individual scores, considering the subsequent individual award ceremony, the specific scores were not announced, only that the overall evaluation was excellent.
After announcing the comprehensive results of Class 3, the instructor did not continue to call the roll, but instead released the results of the other four to tenth places.
The fourth place also had a team score of 94 points and the individual evaluation was also excellent, but it was followed by a sentence that the overall performance of the team members was slightly inferior, so it ranked fourth.
第五名92分、第六名91分、第七第八都是90分，第九名89分，第十名88分。
The score differences were not that big, with only a 4-point difference between the tenth and fifth place, and the difference between the fourth and third was even pitifully small, forcing the two chief judges to rank the team members based on their individual performances. This shows how fierce the competition was in this actual combat assessment.
After a brief pause, until everyone had finished looking at the score ranking on the projection screen, the instructor announced the second place.
Shen Guofu didn’t know what other people thought when they saw this ranking, but he felt extremely uncomfortable right now.
Just a little bit, just a little bit...
Although there is only one place difference between the fourth and third place, the treatment is very different.
It would be fine if the gap was bigger, but it was just such a small gap. There was no way he would feel good about it.
As for Ge Hongtao who was standing aside, he was feeling relieved in his heart and his old face was almost broken by laughter.
And what made him even happier was yet to come.
The second place announced next was actually a class from the Mountain Tiger Reconnaissance Company.
"The second place team is the second squad of the first platoon of the Mountain Tiger Reconnaissance Company!!!"
"Their team scored a perfect 100 points!!!"
Wow~
Of course, when this result was announced, there was an uproar at the scene.
Full marks! Not a single point lost?!
So the question is, how come I'm still ranked second with full marks? !
Jiang Chen, who was standing on the stage waiting for the award, was not surprised that Class 2 received full marks.
As early as a few months ago when he participated in the exercise, Jiang Chen felt that the overall strength of Class 2 was a bit too exaggerated.
There is no need to introduce squad leader Zhao Hongbin, who is a third-term non-commissioned officer with 11 years of military service. The deputy squad leader is also a third-term non-commissioned officer with 9 years of military service. None of the soldiers below him has less than five years of military service.
A class of ten people always ranks among the top 20 in the third company's training results, and each one of them is an elite.
Even Li Gang, the squad leader of Class 3, was once a member of Class 2, which shows how exaggerated the overall strength of Class 2 is.
To put it bluntly, Class 026 is the ace team of the Third Company, a place similar to the logistics warehouse of the Langya Special Forces Brigade.
The first platoon was originally the platoon with the best individual military qualities in the third company. With the tacit approval of Ge Hongtao and the intentional action of the platoon leader Li Cheng, the most elite forces of the entire company were concentrated in the second squad.
In order to make this happen, Li Cheng even went to the other two platoons to poach people.
This phenomenon was not alleviated until the establishment of the police detective company in recent years and after Yang Fan and Lu Ming served as platoon leaders.
In order to counter the ace squad formed by Li Cheng, the second platoon also set up a spearhead squad, which was the fifth squad that Jiang Chen had seen before in the regiment headquarters of the recruit company.
Without this spearhead squad to withstand the pressure from the second squad, and with squad leader Zhao Hongbin not being there at the time, the second platoon was able to narrowly win under the command of Yang Fan and get a spot to go to the regiment headquarters to train new recruits.
This is also one of the reasons why the combat effectiveness of the three platoons of the third company is so unbalanced.
Compared with the second and third rows, the first row is obviously much more powerful.
This is certainly because platoon leader Li Cheng pays more attention to the personal qualities of soldiers, but it is also because the outstanding soldiers from other platoons have been poached.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Class 2 got full marks in the total score.
This was because this class was made up of the best soldiers from the entire Third Company. If they couldn't even demonstrate this level of performance, it would be a disrespect to the Third Company.
Similarly, the situation was similar for the police detective company class that won first place.
Compared to the Third Company which is just messing around in one company, the Police Detective Company gathers the best soldiers in the entire regiment and selects the best from the best. How could the selected spearhead squad be bad?
To sum up in one sentence: They were able to get a perfect score simply because the full score is only 100!
-
In fact, the first and second companies also had their own spearhead squads before.
However, Chief of Staff Feng was too good at digging holes and poaching people, and before he knew it, all the good soldiers in his company had gone to other companies.
Without any reinforcements in the later period, the so-called spearhead squad would naturally find it difficult to continue to maintain itself.
The reason why Class 2 was able to be retained was, on the one hand, because the company commander Ge Hongtao was able to save his face, and on the other hand, because he was the youngest of the three company commanders and his two older brothers were willing to take care of him.
Unexpectedly, the chief of staff wielded the hoe too hard, and no matter how rich the first and second companies were, they could not withstand such exploitation.
and so……
With the fate of the two elder brothers as a reference, when the chief of staff's hoe fell on him, Ge Hongtao ran to the regiment headquarters to complain to the commander without saying a word.
Everyone knows the final result.
Although the three companies still could not escape Feng Dachu's clutches, the overall damage was not serious, and at least most of the essence was preserved.
This is also the confidence that gave Ge Hongtao the courage to take the risk of adopting the tactic of breaking the whole into parts during exercises.
The first and second companies, whose corner of the wall next door was almost dug through by Feng Dachu, could only huddle together for warmth.
It can only be said that most of the company commanders of the 228th Regiment are unhappy with the Chief of Staff Feng Yao, and there are reasons why they dislike him...
Of course, as the chief of staff, Feng Yao was not acting without purpose.
If there was no reason to do so, how could he take such a big risk and bear such great pressure to do such a thing.
Do you really think that Lei Zhenjun, the battalion major, was given this position for free?
Is Lei Dapao's nickname for nothing?
……
Now back to the topic, the group awards are over and it’s time for the individual awards.
There is not much to say about individual awards. It not only depends on the results of the year-end assessment, but also on the soldier's performance throughout the year.
This point alone means that this award has nothing to do with Jiang Chen.
After all, including the three months in the recruit company, Jiang Chen has been in the army for less than half a year.
No matter what, it would not be his turn to receive the third-class merit, even if Jiang Chen got full marks in all subjects.
Not to mention, he hasn't even achieved full marks in all subjects.
Not to mention the basic assessment, the two items of vehicle driving and combat command alone meant that he was doomed to miss out on any individual awards.
Not only did Jiang Chen fail to win the third-class merit award, he failed to even become an outstanding soldier.
There was no other way. The four companies had a total of nearly 500 people. Although the original 15 honorary titles for outstanding soldiers had been increased to 30, it was not easy for Jiang Chen, a new recruit who had just joined the army for less than half a year, to squeeze in.
However, there is no chance of third-class merit or honorary title, but there should be no problem in getting commendations like military training model.
Everyone has seen Jiang Chen's performance during this period, including his performance after he became the deputy monitor.
If this award ceremony was not held together by the entire reconnaissance battalion and the police detective company, and was changed to the internal award ceremony within each company like in previous years, with the strength shown by Jiang Chen in the assessment.
He may not be able to win the third-class merit award, which requires an assessment of a soldier's overall performance throughout the year, but he will definitely get the honorary title of an outstanding soldier.
Among all the candidates in the entire third company, including the previous theoretical examination and the 400-meter hurdles, Jiang Chen's total score ranked in the top five.
However, this time the entire reconnaissance battalion and all the soldiers of the police detective company were evaluated together. Although the number of awards increased, the competition was also greater.
Jiang Chen is a private soldier who has only been in the army for less than half a year. His competitiveness is really too small...
