Behind the brigade commander, the recruit company commander Guo Yuanzheng gave Zhao Lifei a sharp look.
Let Zhao Lifei lead a group, that is, he must bring out the noodles.
It's a good thing that the queue didn't look at him and he came up first to show the brigade commander that the recruits fainted on the spot.
The artillery brigade has four companies of recruits, and they lead only one of them.
There are three more branches, and the brigade commander is going to inspect them.
Needless to say, the most embarrassing one is probably their recruit company.
The establishment and armament tasks of the 11th Artillery Brigade are somewhat special, and recruits do not participate in the group army's recruit training center.
Every year during the recruitment, the group army will set up a new training brigade or new training group, and all male and female soldiers will be trained for half a year.
After training, they are assigned to various combat units and government agencies. It is different here. The recruits still follow the model of previous years, and are trained and assigned by themselves.
Ensure timely recruitment of personnel in various units for combat readiness.
With these regulations in place, the company commanders of those recruit companies are still practicing hard, and they must show the good side of the recruit companies to the brigade commander.
As for my side, the brigade commander was in trouble as soon as he came.
How could Guo Yuanzheng feel comfortable after what happened?
Zhao Lifei naturally knew that he had made a mistake, so he simply turned his head and ignored the company commander. He would still be scolded when the leader left anyway, and he couldn't escape, so why would he be uncomfortable now?
Chen Ming clearly saw the micro-expressions of the two people, suppressed the trembling of the corners of his mouth, and stood there with his head raised in a military posture.
I sighed in my heart, every thing comes down.
...
Inspections continue.
Tang Zhen didn't pay much attention to what was going on here.
I came over to inspect on the day of training just to boost morale and encourage the new recruits.
He took the people with him and walked around the entire training ground before going to the shade to rest.
Today's weather is really too hot. Tang Zhen also knows that young people nowadays are relatively pampered, so he simply lets each class rest when it's time. On the first day of training, there is no need to put so much pressure on the recruits.
Following the brigade commander's instructions, the other squad leaders naturally went down the steps and asked the recruits to sit cross-legged and rest in place, so as not to faint a few more and make the brigade commander laugh.
However, other classes had a break, but Zhao Lifei did not let the first class take a break.
He planned to make up for his past mistakes and let the First Class persevere again. He hoped that the brigade commander could see the perseverance of the First Class. Wei Chongchong fainted just now. It was just an accident.
When you should perform, you should perform, especially in front of leaders. Zhao Lifei has been in the army for six years and knows this truth well.
However, his move made company commander Guo Yuanzheng curse in his heart.
He knew Zhao Lifei's little thoughts, but the problem was that this was to help the new recruits. How could he persist? If one or two more fainted, the brigade commander would have to order the first class to rest, which would be even more embarrassing and humiliating.
Sure enough, Guo Yuanzheng's premonition came true. Within ten minutes, Wang Shuaibing of Class 1 fainted.
The brigade commander frowned slightly. Guo Yuanzheng scolded Zhao Lifei eight hundred times in his heart, and Zhao Lifei's heart jumped suddenly.
He didn't expect that these bastards were so untrained.
Zhao Lifei said helplessly: "Let's all rest where we are. Feed Wang Shuaibing a few mouthfuls of water and let him relax!"
Everyone in the group was immediately relieved.
Wang Shuaibing woke up after falling to the ground. His condition was not serious, so Zhao Lifei didn't bother Zhou Zhang and had people carry him to the infirmary.
"Report!"
At this time, a crisp voice attracted everyone's attention.
Zhao Lifei followed the voice and looked at Chen Ming, "Chen Ming, what's wrong?"
Chen Ming said loudly: "Squad leader, I think I can persist!"
Zhao Lifei was in a terrible mood, but when he heard Chen Ming say this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he thought to himself, good boy, I knew you were not a coward!
Zhao Lifei nodded: "Don't force yourself too hard!"
Under everyone's surprised gazes, Chen Ming still stood upright.
In front of the leader, when you should behave, you should behave. Zhao Lifei understands this, and so does Chen Ming.
As the squad leader said, the recruit period is the easiest stage to stand out in the military camp. The brigade commander came to inspect. Such a rare opportunity, of course, is to leave a good impression on the brigade commander.
Although this way of standing out from the crowd will arouse some doubts. Some people will think, what is this guy pretending to do?
But if you want to do big things, you should do things that others dare not do.
At this time, Chen Ming's behavior not only attracted other recruits, but also brigade commander Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen had just noticed that this standard of military posture was very prominent among the recruits.
At this time, everyone else has rested, but he still persists, which makes this quality even more rare and valuable.
Tang Zhen narrowed his eyes and stared at Chen Ming quietly.
Time passed by, and every time Tang Zhen thought that Chen Ming could no longer hold on, the other party still didn't move at all like a javelin.
Tang Zhen was a little surprised by the tenacity and stubbornness revealed in his tense face with his thin body standing under the scorching sun.
The same thing may not be a big deal in a veteran unit, and any veteran can do it.
But this is a new recruit, so that's different.
The figure of Chen Ming gritting his teeth and persisting in front of him, the hard work and tenacity emanating from the inside out, suddenly overlapped with the figure of an old friend in his memory, which made Tang Zhen's heart move slightly.
He suddenly reached out and pointed to the first class, smiled and asked: "What's that soldier's name?"
Guo Yuanzheng said quickly: "Chief, his name is Chen Ming. He is a student of a school in Pengcheng. He has retained his academic status and joined the army."
This sentence was Zhao Lifei's original words last night when he went to check on the quilt folding situation in the first class. Now he has taken it out and sold it for immediate use. He just forgot the name of Chen Ming's school.
"Oh, does he have the experience of enlisting in the army for the second time?" Tang Zhen asked with a smile.
"No, he is nineteen years old and is not enlisting in the army for the second time."
"Well, let's go and take a look. This soldier is interesting. He looks a bit like one of my former comrades."
Tang Zhen's words almost made Guo Yuanzheng smile.
Hurry to lead the way.
Every year when the chief inspects recruits, he will basically pick a few to talk to, care about the recruits' status, and ask about their needs.
If no one succeeds this year, it means that there is not even one outstanding person here, and then his company commander will be a failure.
He will definitely be squeezed to death by several other company commanders with new recruits.
The leader spoke, and a group of people walked towards the first class in a mighty manner.
Before they even reached the place, Guo Yuanzheng waved and shouted: "Chen Ming, come here, come here."
Chen Ming, who was suffering and gritting his teeth and persisting, heard someone calling him and looked at the squad leader in surprise.
"What do you want me to do? Go, I can still stop you." Zhao Lifei urged.
"Yes, monitor."
Chen Ming responded, and trotted all the way to the company commander under the envious and curious eyes of the other recruits.
Stand at attention and salute: "Hello, Chief."
"Well, Chen Ming, this is the leader of our 11th Artillery Brigade. If I have something to ask you, just answer it truthfully."
"yes"
Tang Zhen looked up and down and said with a smile, "Your name is Chen Ming?"
"Yes, Chief, Er Dongchen, I will bear this in mind."
"Okay, have you been exposed to military training before? Just now I saw that your posture when standing at attention is quite standard, and you have more endurance than other young comrades."
"Reporting to the chief, I have never been exposed to military training. I joined the army just to train myself."
"Well, not bad." Tang Zhen said with a smile: "You look very much like one of my comrades."
"It's not just about the physical appearance, but more about the tenacity, seriousness, and quick reactions."
"Speaking of which, my comrade-in-arms was a soldier of the same age as me, but I was always outclassed by him. Even now thinking about it, I still feel a little dissatisfied."
Chen Ming was a little surprised.
For such a senior officer to laugh at himself in front of a new recruit shows that the chief is indeed very easy-going.
At least as the squad leader said, he is very good with soldiers.
No airs at all.
The group of officers and non-commissioned officers behind him looked at him with wide eyes. They felt that this evaluation was a bit too high.
But Tang Zhen didn't take it seriously. He seemed to be remembering the past and said with a smile, "Do you know who he is?"
Chen Ming shook his head. He knew he was a stick, but he didn't know where to go.
"Jiang Zhenjun."
Tang Zhen didn't seem to be asking him, and gave the answer directly: "Both of our names have shock, but I didn't shock him at the time."
Jiang Zhenjun?
Chen Ming didn't feel much when he heard this name, but the expressions of the recruit company commander and the officers behind him became quite strange.
Obviously knew this person.
Seeing that Chen Ming was indifferent, company commander Guo Yuanzheng smiled and said: "Chen Ming, the commander is talking about our Army Chief of Staff of the Eastern Theater Command."
"A chief is responsible for planning and directing annual military exercises."
He knew him, but he didn't dare to call him by his name.
I can only act as Chen Ming's commentator from the sidelines.
Theater Chief of Army Staff?
Damn it! ! !
Chen Ming himself felt a little numb after hearing this. He planned to work hard in the army and see if he could adapt.
But I never thought about comparing myself to a chief with such a high official position.
Seeing Chen Ming's complex expression, Tang Zhen smiled: "Don't be nervous, relax."
"Everyone grows up bit by bit from here. No one is born fat, and no one is born to be a leader."
"Ignoring your facial features, many of your qualities are similar to his, which gives me a familiar feeling. Maybe you can become someone like him in the future."
Chen Ming: "Chief, you praise me too much. I'm just a small soldier. How can I compare with the chief of staff of the theater? Besides, I think I'm just being myself and don't have any unique qualities!"
Tang Zhen: "Don't be too modest. I'm always very good at judging people. I think you can do it!"
When Tang Zhen talked about this, he always smiled, as if he was talking about an ordinary thing.
But the group behind them was different.
Compare the new recruits to the commanders of other war zones. This is the first time they have heard of it, and they are all going to be stupid.
