Chapter 215: This Is The “fierceness” Of Steel Seventh Company!
Cheng Cai and Xu Sanduo cooperated with each other here, taking advantage of Tuo Yonggang and Wu Zhe’s dislike for A Team to successfully begin the first step of the stratagem of alienation.
On the other side, Wu Liu Yi, who was placed alone in the adjacent dormitory with the training camp code name Forty, was also not idle.
The two first lieutenants and one second lieutenant in the same dormitory with him, unlike Wu Zhe and Tuo Yonggang from the Navy and Air Force, were all from grassroots Army forces.
Everyone was brothers from Army forces, so they got along even more harmoniously.
When everyone introduced themselves, the three roommates heard that Wu Liu Yi was from the Combined Arms Company, and moreover the first Combined Arms Company in the entire army, and their interest was piqued.
Under the great wave of informatization reform, they all knew about combined arms tactics.
Wu Liu Yi took this opportunity, and while introducing himself, began to tout how awesome Steel Seventh Company was and how great its future prospects were.
Especially introducing the Combined Arms Battalion currently being formed, which would become the first Combined Arms Battalion in the country, taking the lead at the forefront of informatization reform.
As long as they could keep up with this wave, their future development would be limitless.
He also deliberately mentioned that it was the early stage of formation and needed a large number of talented elites, so joining at this time would absolutely be the wisest choice.
Wu Liu Yi’s personality was too straightforward and tough; he wouldn’t normally say these things.
The reason he could speak so smoothly and paint such an enticing invisible pie was all taught to him word by word by Chen Jun.
However.
Despite Wu Liu Yi talking extravagantly, claiming that developing in the Combined Arms Battalion was more promising than in A Team, with a longer and farther future path.
But without the influence of empathy factors, and with no proof to back it up, the persuasiveness was really too weak.
Most importantly, if the Combined Arms Battalion was so awesome, why had Wu Liu Yi himself come to A Team for training camp instead of staying focused on developing in the Combined Arms Battalion.
And Wu Liu Yi had no way to directly say that he came here specifically to recruit people.
That would be too whatever!
Explaining that he came to prove his own strength was indeed Wu Liu Yi’s real intention, but to others, it still sounded a bit forced.
So this became a small BUG, causing Wu Liu Yi’s words to lack much persuasiveness.
Wu Liu Yi’s three roommates listened with great interest but weren’t moved by it; their mindset still felt that A Team was more attractive.
Even because Wu Liu Yi hadn’t yet shown his strength, without a solid foundation to stand on.
The three roommates even suspected at one point that there was a lot of bragging in what Wu Liu Yi said, deliberately hyping his own troops as awesome.
Especially claiming to have crushed A Team in an exercise, which sounded way too exaggerated.
With just Wu Liu Yi’s mouth and not even a witness.
It was hard to make people believe it right away!
Seeing everyone’s skeptical looks, with Wu Liu Yi’s temper, he definitely couldn’t tolerate it and would immediately argue things clear with them.
But thinking of what Chen Jun had instructed him, Wu Liu Yi forcibly held back this breath.
He decided to use hard power in the upcoming training camp training to show the prestige of Steel Seventh Company and prove everything he said with strength.
Strength is worth a hundred debates!
Xu Sanduo and Cheng Cai were chatting here, Wu Liu Yi was chatting there, and the other dormitories were about the same, all chatting and shooting the breeze.
Completely unaware that this afternoon and evening today would be their last comfortable short time in the next three months.
At six o’clock in the evening, everyone ate dinner together in the canteen, which was on the first floor to the left of the Pumpkin Building.
The cadets returned to the dormitory and began resting methodically.
Thinking they could sleep until dawn, Qi Huan had told every cadet about the schedule upon check-in: get up at six in the morning.
But as everyone was sleeping groggily, they suddenly heard urgent whistling.
“Du du du du du.”
“Emergency assembly.”
Soldiers from the troops were very sensitive to this whistle; upon hearing it, they didn’t need to think, relying purely on body muscle memory, they all jumped out of bed and ran out in unison.
On the parade ground directly in front of the Pumpkin Building, they formed a standard square formation.
But when all cadets were in position, they found that this place had only their group of cadets and the two old A on guard duty behind them.
No one else!
Calling people up at four in the morning, but after assembling, no instructors were visible, not even Qi Huan who had just blown the whistle.
Were they being played like monkeys?
Under the dissatisfied emotions, the cadets couldn’t help but complain in the drill.
Especially Wu Zhe and Tuo Yonggang, who had been corporally punished by Qi Huan in front of everyone that afternoon for talking in the drill, had the loudest voices in the team.
It wasn’t that they didn’t know the drill rules; they were just unconvinced in their hearts.
They just had to be stubborn.
The more you’re told not to do it, the more you want to do it.
At this time, they couldn’t rationally analyze and judge; most people have had this rebellious emotion.
Just as everyone was chatting enthusiastically, unbeknownst to them, Yuan Lang and Qi Huan had led a group of old A and slowly walked out from behind the building.
The Butcher Building was directly in front of the Pumpkin Building, and Yuan Lang coming from behind was obviously deliberate to hide.
“Cough cough.”
Chen Jun, walking behind Yuan Lang, deliberately coughed twice as a reminder.
Focusing on accumulating good impression, starting from friendly reminders.
Letting the A Team instructors represented by Yuan Lang play the bad cop to harshly torment the training camp cadets, acting as the strict father role to the children.
Chen Jun would quietly take advantage among them to play the safe little good cop.
Letting the cadets accumulate more good impression for Chen Jun, this “good person” who kept helping them, as they grew more angry and disgusted with old A.
With this continuous addition and subtraction, the probability of Chen Jun recruiting people would soar.
This was also the core of Chen Jun’s recruitment plan!
The cadets who had been chatting enthusiastically heard the cough and turned their heads in unison, seeing a large group of people walking over.
The one who coughed was a tall captain with a smile on his face, looking very approachable.
While the man-eating Butcher Qi Huan, with a dark face, was following behind a two-bar two-star old A; even a fool would know this person’s identity was extraordinary.
Even without any introduction from the lieutenant colonel, the cadets had basically guessed the lieutenant colonel’s identity—
Chief Instructor!
The entire drill instantly became silent with the chief instructor’s arrival; everyone retracted their expressions and stood bodies straight.
“Chat ah, keep chatting? Why stop?”
Yuan Lang started with a stern face to assert dominance, hands behind his back, slowly walking into the team, patting this cadet here, pinching that cadet’s face there, continuously mocking and satirizing.
Only after deterring all the cadets present did he begin coldly stating the rules he set.
“The rules are very simple: do good deeds, add points; do wrong, deduct points. Everyone has one hundred points; when points are deducted, pack luggage and leave.”
Yuan Lang had already reached behind Tuo Yonggang by this point and kicked the back of his knee.
Tuo Yonggang’s knee buckled and he lost balance, stumbling forward two steps before regaining his center of gravity, avoiding falling and making a fool of himself.
But with the precedent of being punished that afternoon, despite his face turning extremely ugly, he didn’t dare say another word.
He just stepped back two steps and stood back in the drill.
“Talks too much, everyone deduct two points.”
Yuan Lang’s first blow landed on Tuo Yonggang; Qi Huan behind immediately took out the folder and scribbled a bunch on the cadets’ section with a pen.
And this was just the very beginning.
To ensure smooth training ahead, no cadet dared jump out and point fingers; he wanted to kill all their arrogance and delicacy.
Yuan Lang prepared to give everyone a grand gift, tearing into the cadets in front of him.
First, he showed concern to make Xu Sanduo forgive him, fooling the simple-minded Xu Sanduo completely.
Saying forgiveness for Yuan Lang was for training, not really wanting to corporally punish or scold cadets.
But the next second, Yuan Lang’s face changed drastically; the smile turned into a cold knife, and he scolded: “Deduct five points, overly naive.”
With this little performance, Yuan Lang immediately made all cadets understand one thing.
The chief instructor was a smiling tiger villain!
More terrifying than the Butcher Qi Huan!
Perhaps because of Chen Jun this “outsider,” Yuan Lang, who didn’t introduce himself in the original drama, added this segment here.
Formally introducing to all present cadets that he was the chief instructor here.
And domineeringly announcing that the rules were all set by him, he called the shots here; cadets had no right to negotiate with him, let alone raise any opinions.
Then he introduced Chen Jun to everyone, announcing Chen Jun’s identity as teaching assistant.
And stating that Chen Jun wouldn’t directly participate in training, but if Chen Jun had any demands during training, all cadets must obey unconditionally.
The reason for giving Chen Jun this authority was because Chen Jun had “talked” it out of Tie Lu.
Chen Jun had proposed the right to communicate with cadets when necessary, on the grounds that he needed to observe cadets during training camp, using their mentality and body changes to collect data for researching new special operations tactics.
Tie Lu was now completely trapped in Chen Jun’s scheme, with no choice but to act.
To quickly turn theory into usable lesson plans and follow superiors’ instructions to have A Team conduct counter-terrorism and riot control training.
Tie Lu could only satisfy Chen Jun as much as possible, even excessive demands must be met as much as possible.
This seemed like a very normal request.
How could Tie Lu refuse!
The cadets saw Chen Jun with a mild smile but an unusually tall and burly build, and all felt twelve parts curiosity toward this teaching assistant Chen Jun.
And Tuo Yonggang and Wu Zhe, whose curiosity had already been piqued that afternoon and who were already anticipating.
Now formally seeing the real person, they found Chen Jun gentle and smiling, but with such a burly and robust build.
They basically already believed Cheng Cai’s words: Chen Jun’s personal ability was absolutely very strong.
But when it came to Chen Jun’s combined arms tactics application, it didn’t match their impression of a strategist commanding from afar and winning battles from a thousand miles away.
They could only look forward to further understanding this mysterious teaching assistant in the upcoming training.
However, Chen Jun’s mild and sunny smile formed a stark contrast with the dark-faced Qi Huan and Yuan Lang, plus the good cough reminder earlier.
Overall.
Their first impression of Chen Jun was still very good.
The other cadets’ feelings toward Chen Jun were the same as Tuo Yonggang and Wu Zhe’s; they all thought Chen Jun should be approachable, unlike the other instructors who were “cold and ruthless.”
And Yuan Lang hadn’t yet realized the severity of the problem: Chen Jun was secretly treating him and Qi Huan as tools.
After introducing Chen Jun, he got straight to the topic, starting the cadets’ first lesson—
Super doubled morning exercise!
He had Qi Huan lead the cadets to the large parade ground, while he comfortably sat in the car in front leading, making the cadets follow the car from behind.
Grassroots companies’ morning exercise was at most 3 kilometers, usually just a lap outside and back.
But A Team’s morning exercise was 10 kilometers.
And they had to keep up with the lead car; if they couldn’t keep up and fell more than a lap behind, they had to accept punishment.
What left the cadets most speechless was that this 10 kilometers wasn’t for one day.
It was just the breakfast amount!
Before the remaining lunch and dinner, another 10 kilometers each to aid digestion.
Yuan Lang made his domineering dictator entrance, and right away served everyone a big dish: starting with 30 kilometers of long-distance running every day.
Especially during the run, Yuan Lang would hold a big loudspeaker.
Continuously using all kinds of humiliating, highly stimulating words to sarcastically attack all cadets, continuously trampling their dignity.
This made the already exhausted cadets grow increasingly dissatisfied with Yuan Lang as they ran.
The flames of anger continuously rose.
Standing under the trees by the field edge greenery, watching Yuan Lang assert dominance on the cadets right from the start, watching the anger accumulating in the cadets’ eyes.
His mouth curved higher and higher, his heart blooming with joy.
“Captain Yuan, torment them hard, knock them hard, let their flames burn, let them get angry; if the cadets aren’t angry, don’t have intense emotions toward A Team, where would my opportunity come from.”
Chen Jun muttered to himself, the laughter in his eyes almost overflowing.
Fortunately, Yuan Lang was at a distance and couldn’t see Chen Jun’s expression or hear his words; otherwise, he would definitely notice something.
And among this group of gnashing-teeth cadets, three people had not a bit of anger.
They even ran with extra vigor!
They were the Three Musketeers from Steel Seventh Company.
Wu Liu Yi and Cheng Cai both had missions; to complete Chen Jun’s tasks, they had to show strength and fame, proving Steel Seventh Company was the best.
So both took this, their first long-distance run at A Team, very seriously.
First impressions matter.
Showing strength for the first time matters even more.
While other cadets were running strenuously, either unable to keep rhythm or cursing inwardly, they ran like flying.
And their goal wasn’t just to keep up with Yuan Lang’s car, but to overtake the lead car.
The momentum was too fierce!
This was indeed the most effective way.
Only by breaking convention enough to stand out could they prove themselves with absolute strength, prove Steel Seventh Company, and complete Chen Jun’s tasks.
Although Xu Sanduo had no mission, he didn’t fall behind either.
Seeing Cheng Cai and Wu Liu Yi running ahead, even continuously overtaking the lead car, forcing Yuan Lang to speed up.
Xu Sanduo, tired of being baggage, also began unleashing his “son of the plane” power.
Tight behind Cheng Cai, not falling much.
Running had always been Xu Sanduo’s strength, especially long-distance stamina at cheat level, basically hard to find opponents.
Yuan Lang saw the Three Musketeers from Steel Seventh Company show such strong strength right from the start, actually leading among all cadets.
Even knowing they were good, he never thought they were this strong.
He was particularly surprised at this moment.
After all, the training camp participants were all elites, soldier kings carefully selected from various troops; overall level was very high.
Leading in 10-kilometer running, and all three leading, was enough to prove their strength.
While the other forty-one competitors had very complex moods at this moment.
On one hand, they had to admire these three non-commissioned officers; their running strength was far superior, even giving their all couldn’t catch up.
Especially the tail-end Wu Zhe and Tuo Yonggang; they were thoroughly convinced.
They gained new cognition of Steel Seventh Company’s strength.
On the other hand, Cheng Cai, Wu Liu Yi, and Xu Sanduo ran too fast, with stamina like endless, actually trying to overtake the lead car,
Forcing Yuan Lang to continuously accelerate, making the running speed faster and faster.
The consequence was that the other cadets, already struggling and very tired, had to exert even more effort, giving their all just to keep up.
Steel Seventh Company Three Musketeers crazily competing internally, but the ones suffering were the other cadets.
Chen Jun watched from the field edge with a full face of smiles; this was the effect he wanted, to stir up competition, let other cadets know what a competition king was.
Strive to wear down all other cadets, make them unable to hold on, deduct all points and get eliminated.
Make A Team a wedding dress for him Chen Jun!!
