At the formation site, as the three new training groups from the training center gradually withdrew, the venue began to become empty.
Jiang Peng, who had just finished directing the basic queue display, quickly came to the middle of the second brigade and shouted: "Everyone is here, check your equipment."
"In the backpack, there are quilts, bedding, spare shoes, spare military uniforms, mugs, cleaning supplies, and final confirmation."
"The kettle must be filled with water, and a gas mask must be placed in the bag. The next evaluation is running with extreme weight. The squad leader of each class will check it on your behalf, so hurry up."
"Let's go in three minutes."
The order is issued.
All the recruits of the second brigade quickly took off their backpacks and placed them on the ground to take stock of their belongings.
Zhao Lifei also kept going back and forth in the front area, making approvals. When he came to Chen Ming, he squatted down and said: "Chen Ming, the next item is the easiest to score. You have to hold on."
"If I can persist to the end in the extreme weight-bearing running, my total score in the basic evaluation will remain in the top 30."
"Remember, this is a competition venue, not a battlefield. Let's temporarily put aside the idea of helping others. Even if a soldier from our second brigade falls, as long as he is not in danger, don't delay your own pace."
"Getting good grades is an honor, and the process of getting honors is often accompanied by loneliness. You work hard to be yourself, and I and all the comrades will cheer you up. Do you understand?"
"Yes, monitor, I understand."
Chen Ming nodded heavily. There was no need for the squad leader to say this, he also knew it.
Being able to obtain a good ranking, even for one person, represents the honor of the second team. Some accidents will inevitably occur during the competition. His current task is to protect this honor.
If you don't get a good ranking, you will only be laughed at by other people's "hosts" and looked down upon by others, which is of no benefit.
In a stadium with thousands of people, the leaders will not pay attention to your process, but only your results.
This is not impersonal, but as a soldier, for the sake of honor, everyone must relay a mission to complete.
Chen Ming understands this.
Zhao Lifei reminded him because he was worried that Chen Ming was young and soft-hearted, and would behave like a recruit company when he came to the competition. If anyone couldn't hold on, he would like to encourage them and help them up.
Soldiers are good soldiers. This kind of behavior is allowed on the battlefield, but not on the field.
"After the inspection, each squad leader integrated the team and prepared to go to the second arena. The extreme load running is on cross-country terrain, running around the entire periphery of the martial arts arena. If you can't hold on, you can leave at any time."
"This item is calculated on an individual basis, not on a company or squad basis. Those who finish in the top 300 will be scored, and those who finish behind will not be counted."
"Each squad leader will lead the team to the assembly point, where comrades from the police unit will check personal belongings again, enter after inspection, and wait for instructions to start."
After the three minutes were up, Jiang Peng continued to issue instructions around the second brigade.
Zhao Lifei also urged: "Hurry, hurry, hurry up, let's go to the next arena."
"Let me tell you, although the rules of the competition are that you can leave the competition if you can't run, but no one can cheat on me. Don't run three to five meters on the court. If you feel you can't get results, just quit."
"The leader, company commander, instructor, Jiang Platoon, and we are all watching. If I find out who is the first to leave, I will lose the face of the second brigade."
"When I get back, see how I deal with you."
"Set off."
Chen Ming grabbed his backpack and threw it on his back, and moved forward with the queue.
Running with extreme weight is a very tough competition.
Chen Ming glanced around the entire venue. From his position, he couldn't see the whole picture. He just heard the squad leader introduce it.
This training center covers an area of about 120,000 square meters, and the perimeter is at least 12 kilometers.
Good guy, I am afraid that more than 95% of the contestants will be eliminated in one lap. In this event, if you do not persist until the end, you will not be among the top 300.
Basically, you don’t need to participate in the subsequent individual soldier subjects. The gap is too wide, and you won’t be ranked if you participate.
Why...
Chen Ming shook his head slightly and said that it was a competition for new recruits. So many people participated, but in the end it was still the one or two hundred people who competed.
And the vast majority of people have no qualifications to compete.
In the final analysis, it is up to the group army to select good seedlings among the recruits, focus on training them, and divert them in advance.
"Why are you sighing, Brother Chen? I am very optimistic about you." Wang Shuaibing glanced at Chen Ming strangely.
"You get up early every day and run for an hour and a half. Wouldn't it come in handy now?"
"Hey, if I had gotten up with you and persisted for a month, maybe I could have gotten a good ranking. But unfortunately, I know how bad I am, and I can't get up at all."
"You have to work harder, Brother Chen."
"Well, don't worry." Chen Ming nodded slightly and followed the second brigade through the police checkpoint and successfully arrived at the outermost runway.
It's said to be a check. In fact, I just stretched my head to take a look at the backpack, picked up the water bottle with my fingers, and felt that the weight was right. Then I peeled off a numbered label and stuck it on my shoulder with a "snap" sound.
The numbers on this label should be used for scoring purposes.
Chen Ming turned his head and glanced at his label, 4869. The number had no special meaning, so he turned his head and stopped paying attention.
At this time, thousands of people were already standing on the outer track, which may not sound like much, but the venue was already crowded with people. If the venue was not large enough, it would probably be difficult to support so many people competing at the same time.
Chen Ming observed the surroundings. The recruits in the new training center were obviously very repulsive to the new recruits coming from the artillery brigade.
They entered with numbered tags, and it was so crowded that people stepped back more than ten meters to keep their distance, and looked at them with vigilant eyes from time to time.
It seems that the artillery brigade is not here to judge, but to steal people's achievements.
Chen Ming didn't care, but Wei Chongchong next to him curled his lips and said unhappily: "What's so great about it is that there are so many people."
"The competition is not about the number of people. The ones who can survive to the end are the men. Look at how petty they are."
"Deputy deputy, don't show any mercy for a moment and do this guy's thing."
"good."
Chen Ming responded with a smile.
This feeling of being treated differently made many people in the artillery brigade feel unhappy and held their breath.
at this time.
The police officer next to him who had completed all inspections blew his whistle.
"Attention all participating comrades, there are sixteen people in a row, with a distance of three meters between rows. The running with extreme weight will start in five minutes."
"Quickly line up."
Chen Ming was still standing where he was. The recruits from Class 1 of the Second Brigade pulled him and placed him in the innermost circle.
Because relatively speaking, you can run less distance here and can last longer.
After making arrangements, the police officers began to disperse quickly in cars and went to the runway ahead to arrange supervision.
While waiting, Chen Ming discovered that the long-legged, wheat-colored female officer who had come with the leaders had also followed around the runway.
Sitting on an off-road vehicle and playing with the camera, it seemed that he wanted to record the competition.
It should be someone from the publicity department, Chen Ming thought, but didn't pay much attention.
After glancing at his thighs for a few times, he withdrew his gaze and waited for the competition to begin.
"boom"
A starting gun sounded in the distance.
The line of new recruits began to move forward slowly.
