The role of benchmarks is indeed very motivating to recruits. The third class took turns on the horizontal bar, except for Sun Penghui and another recruit who performed well at the beginning.
Of the eight people left, almost none of them could do a pull-up. What's more, some of them didn't even jump.
But this did not affect Class One.
Chen Ming's performance gave the recruits a lot of confidence. As soon as the squad leader gave the order, Wang Shuaibing, who had been standing aside, jumped to the front.
He couldn't wait to raise his hand, wanting to take advantage of this moment to kill the spirit of Class Three.
"Me, me, monitor, I'll do it."
"Well, then go ahead and do what Chen Ming did just now. Don't be afraid of being slow. Even if you can't pull it, just hanging your arms on the single bar can still exercise your arm strength. Anyway, if you don't do it, I will do it in two days. you."
"yes."
Wang Shuaibing was so excited that he didn't pay attention to what Zhao Lifei said next.
He had almost never done horizontal bar training before joining the army, and he seriously overestimated himself, seeing how good Chen Ming was.
I think I can do it again.
He grabbed his trousers with both hands, twisted his waist twice, and lifted it up. He spat into the palm of his hand and excitedly waved his hands behind him: "Count it down, don't let me do it too fast. There are only one or two of you." .”
"Can you give me a response? I, Marshal Wang, go up to the bar to give a demonstration. I don't have many opportunities."
Wang Shuaibing's habit of talking nonsense happened again. He didn't do any work and just made a lot of nonsense.
The recruits behind him, including Chen Ming, all knew about his virtue and no one paid any attention to him.
But Zhao Lifei was not used to it.
After looking at his ink mark for a long time without making any move, he went up and kicked the thickest part of his body: "Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
"Go up and do it. If you don't pull six, your head will be smashed. Why don't you just stand there and watch the scenery?"
"Right now, right now, I'm going to stir up the atmosphere."
Wang Shuaibing has a ruffian character, the kind who refuses to change despite repeated admonitions and is used to being kicked.
Seeing that the squad leader looked wrong, he quickly stopped talking, looked up at the top of the horizontal bar, and shouted: "Drink!".
The sudden sound startled Zhao Lifei, who was so close, and he didn't wait to deal with him again.
Wang Shuaibing jumped up, grabbed the horizontal bar with a mighty posture, and exerted force with both arms.
His face turned red from holding back.
result.
I just didn't pull it up...
"Pull, I'm waiting for you to count." Zhao Lifei stared at him with an unkind expression.
"Monitor, I... I may not be ready, so I want to apply for another shot."
"Come down and go to the side to do fifty push-ups. You can only push up but not lie down."
ah?
Wang Shuaibing's face suddenly turned green, and he turned to look at Chen Ming as if asking for help.
But Chen Ming couldn't help with this matter, so he could only spread his hands. The so-called push-ups can only be held up but not lying down. To put it bluntly, they are broken down exercises, with both hands on the ground and not allowed to press down.
During the physical fitness week, they are often punished like this. As for when they can start doing it, there is nothing they can do. It depends on the monitor's mood. When he says it can be done, then they have to do it one by one.
If the squad leader doesn't speak, just hold on.
It counts as half as long as it lasts.
This is not the most uncomfortable thing. The most uncomfortable thing is that I am forced to lie down but I am not allowed to hold on anymore...
Chen Ming watched Wang Shuaibing get off the horizontal bar with a smile, ran to the side and lay down on his stomach.
Anyway, this guy makes mistakes all the time and he's used to it.
Next.
The other people in class one took turns to go up to the bar, and the results were not much different from those in class three, except that Ma Dazhu could barely pull up three.
The rest of the recruits were basically in the same condition as Wang Shuaibing. Their arms were weak and they couldn't pull him up at all.
It is not unreasonable for pull-ups to be the most difficult comprehensive training subject for recruits.
When running, they can grit their teeth and try to move forward, doing pull-ups, but there is no shortcut at all.
If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work.
Zhao Lifei didn't seem surprised by this result. He waved his hand and said, "Why are you standing there in a daze?"
"Go down on your stomach and do all fifty push-ups. If I find anyone lazy, I will find a rope to hang you to the horizontal bar."
So, a neat group of people accompanied Wang Shuaibing.
Chen Ming grinned and was about to accompany him to be punished. Before he could lie down, Zhao Lifei waved his hand: "Chen Ming, you don't have to do anything, come here and get down."
"yes."
Chen Ming quickly agreed, and walked quickly to the monitor on the side under the envious eyes of everyone.
"What are you looking at? If you are capable, bring fourteen of them to show me. Be honest, look at what clothes you are wearing, and look at your bear-like appearance. Are you embarrassed?"
Zhao Lifei scolded him, ignored the recruits, and pulled Chen Ming further away.
He stared at Chen Ming, then lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Chen Ming."
"arrive."
"Well, it's just the two of us now, so I don't want to beat around the bush. I've seen your ability. I just met Jiang Pai when I went out, and he also asked about your performance these days."
"Are you really planning to get top marks in the recruit selection?"
"What I mean is that you don't have too high expectations. It's not that I'm trying to defeat anyone. It's mainly because it's not easy. There will always be particularly powerful recruits in an entire group army. Some people are born to be soldiers. If you want to get the first One is very difficult, even the top three will be very difficult.”
"To be honest, I was asked to participate in the competition, because there is no shooting or bombing in the competition, only basic subjects and physical fitness. I am not sure I can get the first place."
"And I've been a veteran for six years, understand?"
"I understand." Chen Ming nodded doubtfully. The squad leader in his impression was not such a coward.
Even if what the squad leader said was true, he shouldn't say it at this time. It would really affect his hard work!
"Well, what are you going to do?" Zhao Lifei ignored Chen Ming's doubts and continued to ask.
"I have no plans, monitor." Chen Ming shook his head slightly, his eyes always firm.
"I know how much pressure there will be when all the new comrades of the 71st Army participate in the recruit selection. Even the athletes Jiang Platoon mentioned a few days ago may not necessarily get good rankings in the end."
"But knowing that I know, I still have to fight hard. Since I have come to serve as a soldier, I won't be afraid of these things. Even if I go back to school, won't I still have to compete with tens of millions of graduates for social resources after graduation?"
"At that time, I had no advantage. I only had to compete with thousands of people in the army. Everyone was still a new recruit. There was nothing to worry about. I just did my job and was done."
"Haha, yes, it seems Jiang Pai was right just now."
Unexpectedly, after Zhao Lifei heard what Chen Ming really thought, he did not continue to persuade him.
Instead, he acted very happy, patted Chen Ming on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, as long as you can face this problem seriously."
"I'm just worried that you don't know what the recruit selection means."
"Now that you know it, there's nothing to say. Just now Jiang Pai asked me to take you to the subjects of the evaluation alone and practice them in advance."
"I see you only practice running when you get up early every morning. That's not good. If you want to practice, you must practice comprehensively. Come on, I will teach you the four-hundred-meter obstacle course first."
"If you can get up early in the morning, you should practice more obstacle running, climbing tactics, and pull-ups. These three are the points-winning events."
"It's not enough to just practice running. It's far from enough."
Zhao Lifei said, turned around and stared at the recruits still lying on the ground in the distance for a while, and then took Chen Ming to prepare for the obstacle course in the distance.
This made Chen Ming a little confused.
It depends on the situation. Should I set up a separate stove for myself?
Even if he gets exposed to some training subjects in advance, it won't waste much time. After all, he still has to rely on himself to continue practicing, and the assistance from outsiders is very limited.
But this can be regarded as a small opportunity for him.
From now on, I really don’t need to get up every day and choose running for additional training.
