At the Second Central Base, General Uburano, commander of the Higgin Empire's Third Fleet, was listening to the training officer's report.
Currently, more than 50,000 Earth Star guards selected by Earth Star have received special training for several months.
Uburano is solely responsible for training and command, so he attaches great importance to this work.
In addition to listening to reports once a month, he often appears unexpectedly at the training venue without saying hello to directly inspect and understand the training situation and progress.
He needs to submit a training report to Second Marshal Zishu Fuming in one year and accept his review.
"General, according to the training plan, the 1st to 3rd training missions have been basically completed. 50,033 Earth and Star Guards have been screened, and only 12,698 qualified for all projects. The remaining personnel have single or multiple disqualifications to varying degrees. , among which 3,680 people have failed the entire project.”
"Those who fail will undergo intensive training to try to reduce the elimination rate as much as possible. Those who really fail will be treated as D-level. For those A-level outstanding elements, ideological guidance must be strengthened and loyal guards must be cultivated."
"Yes, General, my subordinates will do their best to handle this matter!"
"Okay, I believe in your ability, don't let me down. Also, how is the situation with Hei Waze?"
"Reporting back to General, Hei Waze passed 12 items of this training and failed in 3 items. He is a B-level soldier."
"Well, not bad. Deputy Commander Dongguo Xiuce strongly recommends that he study command theory and counter-espionage courses. Pay more attention to him. If he really has talents in this area, he can focus on taking care of him."
"My subordinates have remembered this. Please rest assured, sir. I will include him in the elite program list and include him in a special anti-espionage training class for special training."
"Go and do your work. Important matters can be reported at any time. I need to see the results."
"Yes, General."
The subordinate saluted with a standard military salute and left in a hurry.
Oblano waited for his subordinates to leave, walked outside the office tent, squinted at the dazzling sunlight, and murmured to himself happily:
"This guy Xiuce is really lucky. He met this Hei Waze and helped him solve the major theft case of H Wu. He acted in a measured and sensible manner. He didn't embarrass me. I also said a nice word to him when I had the opportunity. It's a reward. .”
Dozens of training bases have been opened in the western section of the Nyalak Grand Canyon.
More than 50,000 Earth Star guards are divided into countless teams and are undergoing hard training.
The cruelty and intensity of the competition far exceed ordinary military training and are higher than the known special operations difficulty of Earth Star.
At this moment, in a training place.
150 meters ahead, a cylindrical rotating disk is filled with firing ports and is spraying plastic bullets irregularly.
The bullets are ejected from the launch tube and advance at half the speed of sound, leaving the trainer with less than half a second to react. Only by accurately judging the trajectory of the bullets can they respond effectively.
As an Earth Star Guard who was admitted under special circumstances, Hei Waze was lagging behind in training, but he still tried his best and threw himself into the brutal training without his life.
He and three other Earth Star guards stood in a designated U-shaped isolation box 5 meters wide and 10 meters long. They kept dodging up, down, left, and right, making various evasive movements, trying their best to escape the bullets. attack.
They were wearing light training clothes, with fine grid-like lines appearing on the surface. Once the bullet touched and reached a certain force, the bullet data would appear on the distant display screen.
At the second position from the left, Hei Waze is wearing goggles and staring at the launch tube in the distance. He is jumping up and down, rolling and leaping, avoiding the straight trajectory of the bullet.
5 minutes, 5,000 rounds of plastic bullets.
An average of 8.3 rounds per second, no blind spots for firing, and multi-angle shooting, making it difficult to guard against.
According to the requirements, if the hit rate is within 5%, it is considered excellent, within 10% is good, and within 15% is qualified. If it exceeds this number, it will be judged as unqualified.
Train twice a day, and the cumulative calculation is monthly. Only when the corresponding grade exceeds 80% can you be included, otherwise it will be dropped by one grade.
Once the 5 minutes are up, the bullet launch disk stops firing immediately.
At this time, the U-shaped isolation box where Heiwaze was located was covered with plastic bullets, and the recycling robot began to clean up the work.
He was covered in sweat, panting from exhaustion, and almost collapsed.
The four people ignored the rest and turned to the results display screen.
On the large display screen, the results have been calculated and the rankings are arranged in order.
There were 500 people in the 9th Squadron of the 9th Battalion where Heiwaze was. He looked down the order and fixed his result at 332nd.
Hei Waze, No. 0995500, is a training subject of shooting evasion. The hit rate for the first time today was 11.7%, and the hit rate for the second time was 12.6%. The cumulative total score was qualified.
Seeing this number, Heiwaze breathed a sigh of relief. Today, the project finally passed.
Others don't know how much hardship he has put into this. In order to catch up with the training progress, he increases the difficulty of training while others are resting, and trains hard alone.
Every time after training, your whole body is covered in red and blue. The feeling of being hit by a bullet is not very pleasant. Although it is not painful, it still makes you feel a little uncomfortable.
The more shots you take, the slower your reaction will be. The fewer shots you take, the greater your confidence. This is the cruelty of training.
As long as you meet the standards for this kind of subject, you're done. It's relatively easy.
The most terrible thing is the competition between each other, which is simply outrageous.
For example, in extreme running, within 10 hours, each person carries a 30-kilogram backpack and multifunctional running shoes with positioning, timing, and distance, and advances along a prescribed route.
The first 1,000 are considered excellent and the last 5,000 are unqualified.
In order not to fall into the bottom 5,000, most fighters need to try their best to avoid entering the unqualified camp.
Heiwaze has been staying in the country's special forces, and the training has not stopped. He barely surpassed some soldiers and ranked about 5,600 from the bottom. He was not squeezed into the C-level circle.
This kind of endurance run is conducted 5 times a month, and the annual cumulative statistics are not only about physical strength, but also about endurance and perseverance.
In the past three months, Heiwaze has only fallen into the unqualified list once due to poor health. The rest of his results have become more and more stable, and at the highest point he was ranked among the top 20,000.
This is all related to his willingness to endure hardships, make progress, and risk his life. He gritted his teeth and persevered, and overcame the initial suffering.
On his first day of training, the military training officer sternly warned him that although he did not have to sign a 50-year life evolution service agreement, he had to participate in all training projects. Only when he reached the B-level level could he enjoy the benefits stipulated in the agreement.
If you reach the A-level level, you can get the same benefits as alien soldiers. If you fall to the C-level level, you can only do some logistics service work.
As for the eliminated Class D, there is no agreed salary package, and other benefits are at the lowest level.
There is a big gap between each level, and the status is also different.
This evening, Heiwaze had just completed a routine military theory examination.
This is his specialty. With his solid theoretical foundation in the past, this kind of exam is a piece of cake for him, and he can often get excellent results.
The overall performance ranking has entered the top 500, which is considered the best-performing training program.
On the way to the camp, he was thinking about one of the novel military judgment questions. He didn't notice that a person behind him quickly caught up with him and stopped him.
"Hei Waze! Is that you?"
Hei Waze looked back and saw that it was a military training instructor. He quickly saluted and said in Hijinese: "Hello, instructor! I am Hei Waze."
Instructor: "Well, there is good news. The colonel asked me to inform you that starting from tomorrow, you will report to the 2nd Elite Team and accept new training tasks. Get ready in the evening. A special car will pick you up at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. Remember not to be late. , otherwise you may lose this rare opportunity."
Heiwaze was suddenly excited and immediately saluted: "Yes! Instructor, I have already written it down. I will wait for the bus outside the barracks at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning."
The instructor patted his shoulder and said with a smile:
"The 2nd Elite Team specializes in cultivating outstanding talents in military staff, intelligence countermeasures, technical reconnaissance, etc. You have good military theory and logical analysis skills. I hope you can successfully complete all coursework, enter the military special operations system, and show your value. "
Hei Waze: "Thank you instructor for your guidance. I will definitely work hard to make progress and live up to the efforts of the Dixing General Administration."
"I believe you can succeed! Go ahead."
The instructor returned a military salute, turned around and left quickly.
When the instructor walked away, Hei Waze couldn't hide the joy in his heart. He waved his fist and looked up to the sky laughing silently to cheer himself up.
Other campers who were coming over after taking the exam passed by him and saw him so happy. They thought they had passed the review range and were happy to get a good result.
Little did they know that this comrade and competitor who joined later would leave the ordinary training category tomorrow and move towards a brighter path of elite special training, showing off his wonderful side.
Hei Waze didn't know that he had been appreciated by two big shots and was promoted to the elite team, receiving targeted guidance and training, giving him the opportunity to tap into his potential and develop his talents.
He thought it was a reward for his great contribution in solving the H material theft case.
No matter what, as long as you perform well, you will change your destiny and usher in the spring of life.
Returning to the two-story dormitory with 20 people per room, Hei Waze calmed down his excitement. As usual, after completing the simple washing work, he climbed into the second-story bed and began to learn the alliance's common language under the bright light. or Hijin language, and constantly improve your translation and speaking skills.
He does not show off anything, let alone brag about himself. He always maintains a heart of awe, urges and alerts himself, and avoids acting casually, breeding arrogance, and causing accidents.
Earth's ephemeris, May 18, 2110, 7 a.m.
When the camp horn sounded, the soldiers got up in a hurry and cleaned up their personal hygiene as usual.
Heiwaze was doing the same thing, but not in a hurry.
At 7:25, all the companions in the barracks gathered outside on time. No one noticed that Hei Waze was at the end and did not follow him to train.
In the room, Hei Waze quickly packed his few personal belongings, filling a military backpack with just enough space to hold everything.
All the trainee campers lined up neatly. When counting, they finally discovered that something was wrong. There was one person missing in the 10th column.
After the count was finished, while everyone was observing a moment of silence for the latecomers who would be severely punished, the instructor personally walked to Heiwaze's camp and called him out enthusiastically.
Everyone was puzzled when they saw Hei Waze walking out of the barracks with his bag on his back. It wasn't until the instructor explained the whole story that they finally understood the truth of the matter and cast all kinds of complex looks at him with envy, jealousy, hatred.
Hei Waze suppressed his joy, saluted the instructor and all his companions with a serious face, said a few polite words such as thanks for the care, and hurried out along the corner of the barracks.
Ahead, a new special-purpose military vehicle of the Earth-Star version can be seen running towards this side.
After a brief exchange, Hei Waze saluted the farewell instructor, waved to the eager eyes in the distance, turned around, got into the military vehicle and drove away.
