When Captain Li walked down the office building, Jiang Fan and others just arrived.
"Are you Jiang Fan?"
Captain Li couldn't help but be slightly surprised when he saw Jiang Fan at the head.
He didn't expect Jiang Fan to be so young.
He is not from the special forces and does not know Jiang Fan's past.
All I know is that Jiang Fan is the chief instructor of the naval special forces.
He originally thought that the person who could become the chief instructor must be at least in his thirties, so he would have some combat experience, right?
The young man in front of me looks like he is twenty-three, or even younger.
At such a young age, he became the chief instructor of the special forces?
However, his doubts only lasted for a moment before he was shocked again by the rank of major on Jiang Fan's shoulders!
So young, he is already a major!
He also graduated from the military academy.
He went to the military academy at the age of eighteen, graduated from the military academy at the age of twenty-one or twelve, and joined the army.
At that time, it was just a lieutenant rank, or even better, a captain rank!
If you want to go from captain to major, according to the current trend of the domestic peaceful environment, it will not take more than four or five years, which is basically impossible! Still doing a great job!
It is relatively rare for someone to become a major before the age of thirty!
At this age, Jiang Fan is already a major, and he has naturally made many military exploits!
Only in this way can we make an exceptional promotion!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become a little curious about Jiang Fan.
The Marine Corps is not a special force and has few actual combat missions.
Then where did he make his contribution?
Jiang Fan immediately saluted: "Hello, leader! I am Jiang Fan!"
"Sorry to bother you!"
Captain Li: "Since you said I'm disturbing you, why don't you leave?"
Jiang Fan: "???"
He Chenguang and the other three: "???"
Is it so direct?
Although we are here to recruit people.
But after all, visitors are just guests, so there is no need to drive them away directly, right?
Captain Li snorted coldly: "What's the matter? You are all coming to my army to steal people, why should I be polite to you?"
Jiang Fan smiled bitterly: "Captain, there is nothing we can do about this."
"Our military region's naval force wants to form a special operations force, but there are too few soldiers with amphibious combat capabilities. We can only recruit some people from outside, right?"
Captain Li sneered: "Are you young? Every year, you Marine Corps recruits first, and it is our turn to pick the rest!" 33
"You have recruited all the good soldiers in advance, leaving us with less qualified soldiers."
"Now you're telling me that the Marine Corps doesn't have many good soldiers, so they have to recruit them from outside?"
"Are you Marines playing with me?"
Jiang Fan smiled bitterly again.
He knew he would encounter resistance when he came out to dig people out, but he didn't expect it to be so big!
The commander of the coastal defense regiment is obviously not easy to mess with. It is too difficult to poach a good soldier from him!
Jiang Fan could only explain patiently: "Captain Li, we can't tell whether a good soldier is a bad soldier at a glance, right? We have to enter the army and go through practice before we can see it!"
Captain Li: “Just because we can’t see it, we recognize it!”
"But now, we have trained soldiers with better qualifications, and you come here to rob them. What's the point of this?"
"You take away those who are talented innately, and those who I train the day after tomorrow, you also have to poach them! Co-author, our army is to provide good soldiers for your Marine Corps, right? We don't have to fight?"
"If that's the case, you might as well apply to the headquarters to withdraw my troops!"
Jiang Fan said: "I know that it is not easy for the army to cultivate good soldiers, and I also know that it is not appropriate for us to do this."
"But, we are all soldiers, and we should focus on the overall development!"
"A good soldier should go where he belongs and use his strength to make greater contributions to the country, the army and the people!"
"Otherwise, if you force someone with good qualifications and the ability to become a special forces soldier to stay, you will ruin his future and restrict the development of the naval force in disguise!"
"If every unit hides its good soldiers, and when it comes to the battlefield, the navy does not have an emergency special force with strong combat effectiveness that can be pulled out, what will be the consequences? As the commander of the regiment, you will not fail. understood?"
"Otherwise, why do every military region and every branch of arms have to form special forces? What's the point?"
"Let's not talk about the long-term war, let's choose a recent exercise! If the navies of other military regions have special forces, but we don't, and we actually engage in exercises, do you think our military region can defeat them?"
Captain Li waved his hand and said: "You don't need to talk to me about these big things. When I was a soldier, you were not born yet!"
"If you want the top soldiers of my army, you can! If you take away a few, you can return a few from your marines! It's fair and just!"
Jiang Fan said helplessly: "I can't decide this."
Captain Li: "Then let the person who can decide come and talk to me!"
"Can."
Jiang Fan took out his cell phone and said to He Chenguang, who was holding the information behind him: "Give me the phone number of the Navy Headquarters."
Since he couldn't reach an agreement and the other party didn't cooperate, he didn't bother to talk anymore.
It's something that concerns the overall situation. Since the other party doesn't have this awareness, he won't be polite anymore.
What's more, Marines are arrogant and eager to join a stronger and better unit. If you ask them to serve in a unit with worse combat effectiveness than the Marines, who would be willing?
Even if it is a forced order, if they come, once their service expires, they will 100% apply for discharge!
Not to mention that he can't make the decision, even if he could, he wouldn't do it!
When Captain Li heard that Jiang Fan wanted to call the Navy Headquarters directly, his expression suddenly changed, "Why are you calling the Headquarters?"
Jiang Fan said: "Don't you want to talk to someone who can make a decision? I'll find it for you!"
Commander Li: "I'm talking about Long Baichuan of your Marine Corps!"
Jiang Fan: "He can't decide either. I was directly appointed by the headquarters to form the naval special forces! It has nothing to do with the Dragon Brigade."
"After the formation of the Naval Special Forces is completed, although the establishment is also within the Marine Corps, it will also be directly under the jurisdiction of the headquarters! It may even become independent by then!"
"We are going to poach a lot of people from the Marine Corps. How can the Dragon Brigade send more people away?"
Captain Li: "..."
If what Jiang Fan said is true, then Long Baichuan really can't make the decision, and he won't do it!
Seeing Captain Li's expression, Jiang Fan couldn't help but ask: "Captain Li, then...should I still fight?"
Captain Li glared at Jiang Fan angrily, "I'll hit you on the head!"
Is this a phone application?
This is a phone call to complain!
The documents sent by the headquarters are all clearly written, and all units are required to cooperate unconditionally!
Now I am not cooperating, and I want to gain some benefits for the troops.
If you let the superiors know, you will inevitably be punished!
If you can't change something, why ask for trouble?
Captain Li asked: "How many people do you plan to poach from me?"
Jiang Fan said: "I don't know. I have to test it a little bit."
"It may be dozens of people, it may be a few people, or even none of them will be taken away!"
"When I select people, I don't look at the results of the top soldiers you have here, but based on the process. It's even possible to pick someone who is in the middle or behind."
Captain Li looked puzzled when he heard this.
When selecting soldiers, shouldn’t we select top soldiers?
Is there anyone who chooses and waits?
What is the principle?
Can you tell if they have the potential to become special forces just by doing a little assessment?
What nonsense!
"How do you want to assess?" Captain Li asked.
Jiang Fan said: "It's very simple. Arrange a triathlon! My requirements are not high, five kilometers of beach cross-country, five kilometers of armed swimming, and 100-meter chest target mobile shooting! But before starting, I need to explain the rules."
In fact, even if they don't take assessments, Jiang Fan can directly see their physical fitness and potential with eagle eyes.
The reason for the assessment is to see their attitude!
It’s not about the enthusiastic attitude going into the selection, but the attitude towards training.
Triathlon is the most test of a warrior's willpower.
Some warriors choose to give up when they are tired or have no energy. In this case, no matter how good their potential is, Jiang Fan will not take it.
And some warriors choose to persevere, constantly breaking through the limits, and persisting with willpower. For this kind, even if the qualifications are a little bit inferior, as long as there is still potential, Jiang Fan is willing to give it a try. Even if he fails in the end, he will train by himself. They can at least improve their strength!
This is Jiang Fan’s intention!
The purpose of mobilizing them is to better stimulate them and make them yearn for the special forces, so that they can participate in the assessment even harder!
Like the Marines, they themselves want to join the special forces. Even if Jiang Fan doesn't mobilize, they won't give up easily!
But the coastal defense force is different. After all, it is not a higher-level force like the Marine Corps. The soldiers' enthusiasm for training and desire to become stronger are not as strong as those of the Marine Corps.
Captain Li nodded slightly.
Although this continuity assessment is difficult, it is acceptable.
Through assessment in this way, the potential and willpower of the soldiers can indeed be seen.
"OK!"
"Then you go to the guest house to rest first. I will make arrangements for tomorrow."
Captain Li said.
Jiang Fan said: "Let's start in the afternoon!"
"It's only around ten o'clock in the morning. Two or three hours of preparation is enough."
"One afternoon is enough to assess the entire regiment of soldiers."
Captain Li immediately said with a cold face: "Start in the afternoon?"
"Do you think my troops are doing nothing every day?!"
"We also have training missions. Where do you stop when you say you can and then directly cooperate with your assessment?"
Jiang Fan directly pulled out a piece of paper from the information in He Chenguang's hand and handed it to Captain Li: "Captain Li, this is your regiment's training plan for the past half month!"
"If your group is following the training plan reported to the headquarters, I think what you practiced in the afternoon should be physical fitness and swimming, right? Isn't this the same as my assessment? It just has an extra shooting!"
Captain Li looked at the training schedule in his hand and was stunned.
He didn't expect that he would fall into the pit dug by the headquarters.
Just three days ago, the headquarters required each unit to submit a training plan for the next half month. After approval, the units must first train strictly according to the plan.
This situation often happened in the past, just for more standardized military training, and sometimes the leaders from the headquarters came down to inspect and see the real training situation!
Behind him, He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, and Li Erniu, all admired Jiang Fan so much that they fell into admiration.
As an old company commander, I have prepared solutions in advance for almost all possible situations that may be expected!
Captain Li originally thought that the headquarters was sending leaders to inspect, but he didn't expect that it was actually for Jiang Fan to select troops!
"You are cruel!"
Captain Li felt extremely aggrieved and could only agree, "Okay! Let's start in the afternoon!"
"If you have any other requests, please tell me!"
Jiang Fan was not polite and said: "All those who participate in the assessment must not be over thirty years old. Not for company chief officers, not for school officers or above. Not for those in the logistics department, and not for agency cadres."
Commander Li sneered: "As a co-author, you need to be young and strong, with a lower military rank than you, and no experience in agency work."
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "If you want to be tested, you must naturally have sufficient combat effectiveness."
Captain Li said: "Okay, just wait. I'll let you know in the afternoon."
After saying that, Captain Li left without looking back.
Soon, a clerk from the Propaganda Department ran down and took Jiang Fan to the guest house.
After returning to the office, Captain Li immediately asked the company commanders to come over for a meeting.
Jiang Fan did not rest in the guest house, but stood on the main road outside.
From time to time, I saw captains walking quickly towards the office.
"Company commander, this Commander Li is not kind!"
He Chenguang frowned slightly and said: "As soon as we left, he immediately summoned the company chief officers for a meeting. Obviously, he wanted to ventilate the air in advance so that the soldiers of his company would deliberately let go."
Jiang Fan waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter."
"If the soldiers in this unit don't have any competitiveness or ambition, then it's okay not to join them."
Wang Yanbing was worried: "But what if he deliberately hides all those good seedlings?"
Jiang Fan smiled bitterly: "There is nothing we can do about it. With such a large regiment, and the time given to us by the superiors is so short, we cannot pay attention to all the soldiers in one unit."
………………
2 p.m.
Commander Li followed Jiang Fan's request and pulled out all the soldiers who met Jiang Fan's conditions.
This army is a full regiment, with ten combat companies, three battalions, and one guard company. The rest are from agency staff and logistics departments.
Excluding the older soldiers, officers, and logistics personnel excluded by Jiang Fan, there were more than 600 soldiers left on the scene.
On the playground, Captain Li stood in front of the microphone, glanced at the entire audience, and said loudly: "I think your company commander has told you the purpose of the afternoon assessment at noon!"
"That's right, it's the chief instructor of the Frogman Special Forces who came to select people to participate in the selection!"
"Whether you want to be a special force or not, you must participate! You must also go all out and don't embarrass our regiment!"
"have you understood?"
"yes!"
Nearly six hundred soldiers roared loudly.
Captain Li nodded with satisfaction, "Now, let's applaud and invite the chief instructor of the Frogman Special Forces to come up and speak! Everyone applauds and welcomes us!"
Bang bang bang...
Under the warm applause of all the soldiers, Jiang Fan slowly walked out from behind.
Some people died, but not completely...
