Division E doesn't have many things, it has the most mountains.
What's more, Division E is a motorized infantry division. Although it has become motorized these days, physical fitness is indispensable.
Therefore, charging up the mountain has become the "traditional project" that every infantry has the most contact with but is most afraid of.
"Target - the crooked-neck tree on the hill behind the camp. Run up and touch the tree and run down!"
Wu Yi took a 95-1 white light sight, pointed at the target on the mountain and shouted: "Don't be sneaky, I'm watching! Get ready - run!"
Following the order, the recruits reluctantly but helplessly ran towards the target designated by the squad leader.
"Catch the last five and get one penalty!"
With Wu Yi's addition, the originally lazy team suddenly turned into tigers, and everyone rushed to rush to the mountainside.
"Hou Jun!"
As soon as Li Zheng and the new recruits ran out, Xie Dong came down from upstairs and arrived on the lawn in front of the barracks.
Looking at Wu Yi holding the scope and Hou Jun next to him, he couldn't help but criticize: "It's only been a while since we had a full meal. Why are we asking the new recruits to run up such a hill?"
Hou Jun said: "It's been half an hour, not just a while."
Xie Dong said: "That's not possible. Running like this is bad for your stomach. Besides, it's getting dark now. What should I do if I slip on the mountain road and get into an accident?"
"It's not that serious! This will make it not dark yet, and the visibility is not that low." Hou Jun looked at his company commander, and suddenly there was a bit of ridicule in his tone: "I said company commander, when will you Have you become so tender? You were not like this when you were the monitor."
Therefore, when you are a company cadre, you are most afraid of this kind of veteran.
Especially veterans who have eaten from the same pot as you.
He knows everything about you.
The reason why Hou Jun teased Xie Dong was not because he insisted on showing off his qualifications as a veteran, but because he was not satisfied with Xie Dong's training methods.
Xie Dong really endured hardship when he was a soldier. Like himself, he was a top-trained soldier in the company, otherwise he would not have been selected to teach the team. Finally, he was admitted to the military academy and became a cadre.
But even when he returned to the Fourth Company as the platoon leader, he was considered to be an iron-blooded man. When it came to training, he was called fierce, no matter how hard and tired he got.
Since he was promoted to company commander at the beginning of this year, Xie Dong has become a bit difficult for him to understand.
It feels like a straight man suddenly becomes a mother-in-law and a pretend mother-in-law, especially when the recruits have been acting like a mother-in-law during this period, the instructors are not as attentive as him.
When the recruits are tired, they worry about mental fluctuations. When the training is difficult, they worry about the training being too heavy and the recruits won't be able to bear it.
Anyway, the previous rigidity is gone now, all gone, replaced by all kinds of caution.
In fact, Hou Jun knew what Xie Dong was doing by thinking about it with his toes.
To put it bluntly, after becoming a cadre, you are less timid. Recruit training is the highlight of the division every year, and it is also the time when results are produced.
Xie Dong was just afraid of something happening.
"Hou Jun, let me remind you, these are new recruits, not the top students you led in the teaching team!" Xie Dong didn't want to mention the time when he was the squad leader. He also knew that he worked hard back then, and he also knew that What does Hou Jun imply in his words?
Hou Jun glanced at Xie Dong and did not immediately refute. Instead, he looked up at the mountainside.
A platoon of soldiers had already rushed to the foot of the mountain. They were scrambling along the small dirt road and half-climbing and half-running towards the crooked-necked tree on the mountainside.
I thought that Hou Jun would definitely refute again with his temper, but he didn't expect to stop talking. Xie Dong felt as if he punched hard but hit the cotton ball, which was very uncomfortable.
"What? Did I tell you right?"
Hou Jun didn't speak, but Xie Dong wanted him to speak.
Unexpectedly, Hou Jun suddenly said without thinking: "This morning we had a shooting confrontation with the second and third platoons, and we lost."
Wu Yi next to him put down the white light scope in his hand, turned his head in surprise and said, "We won."
Xie Dong frowned: "Did you lose or win?"
He chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that our first sharpshooter, Sergeant Hou, would admit defeat!"
Wu Yi was anxious on the side and explained: "Company Commander, we won by total points, not lost."
Hou Jun still looked at the desperate recruits on the mountainside and said lightly: "In my opinion, we have lost."
He finally turned his gaze from the mountain to Xie Dong's face.
"There is a soldier in the second platoon who has achieved full rings. The two most promising soldiers in our platoon are both only 48 rings. The first four bullets are all 10 rings. The last shot is abnormal and both are 8 rings. What a coincidence. unfortunately?"
Xie Dong was stunned for a moment and then said: "It's a bit of a coincidence."
Then he asked: "Who is that soldier in the second row? What is his name?"
Wu Yi said: "My name is Zhuang Haoran."
Xie Dong thought for a while and said as if he suddenly realized: "Oh! It's him. His father practices shooting."
Hou Jun glanced at Wu Yi, who lowered his head.
"Wu Yi, look at the soldiers you picked. What kind of soldiers did you pick? None of these soldiers have been picked into our platoon?"
Wu Yi had nothing to say. In fact, he saw Zhuang Haoran that day, but Zhuang Haoran was not tall, he was thin, and he didn't look outstanding.
Wu Yi didn't choose him at that time, but chose someone else.
"Who knew that his father retired from the provincial shooting team... He didn't have any chiseling on his forehead."
Hou Jun pointed to his eyes: "Look at your eyes, do you understand?"
Wu Yi stopped talking and continued to stare at the recruits with the scope.
Xie Dong said: "It seems that you can't afford to lose, so you punish your troops to rush to the top of the mountain? I can tell you, Hou Jun, your method of leading troops is unacceptable."
Hou Jun said: "Which group of soldiers I have led over the years has disappointed you?"
Xie Dong was speechless again.
Because what Hou Jun said is true.
The reason why veterans like Hou Jun are difficult to deal with is because he is really capable.
If you want to say that you don't have the ability to say a few big words, you can expose them when you poke them. If you have the real ability, no matter how much you say, others will make you speechless by presenting the facts.
"Okay! Then we'll have to decide on you for this year's recruit assessment. Don't lose to the second platoon. It'll be fine if my face falls on the ground. But you, the best sharpshooter of the Tigers, can't pick it up if your face falls on the ground."
The Second Recruit Battalion is the recruit battalion of the Tiger Regiment. There are three companies in it: four, five, and six. Each company corresponds to the corresponding battalion. After the training in the future, the three infantry battalions and other artillery battalions of the Tiger Regiment will also have the regiment logistics department. Everyone selects people from here, but generally speaking, which company they are in now will go to which battalion they will go to in the future.
The fourth company corresponds to the second battalion of the Tiger Regiment, and each platoon corresponds to a company.
The second row corresponds to the fifth company.
As the commander of the fourth company, Xie Dong said this to remind Hou Jun to avoid losing at the hands of Wen Lei. With Hou Jun's arrogant and coaxing temperament, that old face would not be able to hang on.
Hou Jun didn't seem to take Xie Dong's words seriously, and said calmly: "Actually, Li Zheng and Zhang Jian both shot very well in the first four shots, and there was nothing wrong with them. I asked them about it, and they were all taught by me according to their usual training. But then there was a problem. When they fired the last shot, they were in a period of excitement and exhaustion. The excitement was because the first four shots were too good and they were drifting away; the exhaustion was because they were too cautious when they pulled the trigger on the first few shots. They used a short breath-holding method to stabilize the sight, so when the last shot was fired, the brain was in a slightly exhausted state. They didn't notice it, but the bullet knew it."
Xie Jun said: "The breath-holding method is used by veterans. Are you teaching new recruits to use this thing?"
Hou Jun said: "It's not that the new recruits can't use it. The reason why the new recruits can't use it well is because they don't have enough physical fitness. If they practice charging up hills, their physical fitness will improve, and their arm strength will improve when they sit and push-ups, the gun will naturally be stable and accurate."
Xie Jun felt that his company commander was quite helpless sometimes when he met a veteran who knew everything.
You said he was punishing soldiers, but he told you it was training, and even gave you a list of ways to do it. His words were impeccable.
"I won't interfere with your platoon's training."
After saying that, Xie Dong left.
He really couldn't get involved, not to mention he trusted Hou Jun.
My comrade of the same year has an advantage, which can also be said to be a disadvantage. He does not admit defeat, and does not admit defeat to the point of paranoia.
