The assessment for selecting personnel for the reconnaissance company is not complicated, there are only three items in total!
The first item is a three-kilometer cross-country trip in full gear; the second item is prone and push-up; the third item is sit-ups.
These three items are basically what soldiers have trained in daily life. They don't seem to be difficult. However, these three items are performed continuously. This means that after three kilometers of armed cross-country, there will be no rest time and the second one will be carried out directly.
For the first item, after 100 prone and push-up times, you will be considered qualified and can proceed to the third item.
Finally, the top 100 students are admitted based on their total scores, which also means that those who take the assessment have no idea what they can do to be admitted and can only do their best to complete it.
The purpose of the entire assessment is actually one word, potential limit. In Tang Tuanzuo's words: You can practice marksmanship, you can practice stabbing and fighting, but a person's spiritual will and quality cannot be developed just by practicing.
The reconnaissance company is the elite of the entire army, and their mental and will quality should be the best in the entire regiment.
In fact, if we say these three assessments are simple, they are not necessarily so.
Not to mention the last two tests on arm strength and waist and abdominal strength, just talking about the first test of fully armed cross-country for three kilometers, Tang Tuanzuo listed the various equipment and supplies that the individual soldiers of the future reconnaissance company will need to carry.
The food supply for an individual soldier alone exceeds 5 kilograms. If you add guns, ammunition, helmets, individual engineer shovels and other major combat supplies, each soldier needs to carry more than 30 kilograms, which is currently more than what an ordinary soldier in the Four Lines Regiment can carry.
More than double the amount of supplies.
Of course, the assessment will not really prepare all the supplies for everyone. Except for the necessary supplies such as rifles, 200 rounds of ammunition, 6 grenades, individual engineer shovels, and kettles, the rest are all made of stones of corresponding weights.
replace.
The assessment venue is the Wild Wolf Valley where the last commendation meeting was held. All 300 veterans who participated in the assessment were divided into 10 groups, each group has 30 people. They started from the starting point of the Wild Wolf Valley, then went up the mountain on a path, and ran a lap along the mountains.
Go down the mountain and return to the starting point, exactly 3000 meters away, and then immediately take part in the second and third assessments.
There was no need to monitor the entire armed cross-country process. The surrounding mountains were filled with officers and soldiers from each company who came to cheer for their brothers. This was almost a competition between the entire four-line regiment, but the competition was between elites, not to mention nine.
The infantry company commander took it seriously, and three infantry battalion commanders personally rushed to the scene to cheer up the elite of their infantry battalions.
There was also an episode here. Before Tang Dao arrived at the assessment site, Lei Xiong, who paid the most attention to him, even organized a group of 80 people from four companies under his command to participate in the assessment and gave a lecture: "Can you enter the reconnaissance area?"
The company is not important, the important thing is that we cannot lose the face of the first battalion. The reason why the first battalion is called the first battalion is that it ranks first in everything it does. It is the sharpest knife in the whole regiment, and you are the sharpest knife among the sharpest knives.
In this assessment, as long as you are among the top 100, I will personally wear a big red flower for you and send you to the reconnaissance company to report."
Deputy Commander Lei was like this. The other two battalion commanders didn't dare to relax. They summoned several company commanders of their own and asked if there were any hidden ones. If so, it's still too late to replace them. Otherwise, they will be replaced before then.
If there are less than 30 people in the camp out of 100, it will be a big disgrace.
After all, the three infantry battalions accounted for more than half of the 300 people registered this time. The guard company, cavalry company, artillery company, baggage company, engineer company and other direct companies could only sign up for a total of 100 people due to their stronger technical attributes.
Li Jiujin couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. What he originally thought of as a mean and balanced approach turned into a bloody battle in the blink of an eye. If he still wanted to retain his strength, he was afraid that Battalion Commander Leng would get angry with him.
"Old Zhao, Dazhu and the others are crazy! They even sent squad leaders?" Li Jijin looked at the lineup of non-commissioned officers sent by the first and second battalions, and his molar teeth clenched.
Involution kills people! Li Jijin may not know this word, but it doesn't mean that he has experienced the hurt caused by this kind of involution in his heart at this time.
There was no way, before Tang Tuanzuo arrived, Captain Li Dal ran to find Lao Hei and Gu Xishui through the back door, and temporarily replaced five people.
The elite of his own seventh company.
Gu Xishui pretended to be reluctant, but secretly he almost burst out laughing. However, Tang Tuanzuo, who planned all this behind the scenes, was even more impressed with his admiration.
Because all of this is within Tang Tuanzuo's calculations.
Last night, when he showed Tang Dao the lists of names submitted by each company, he complained about Li Jijin, a cunning guy, saying that he even used the back door to hide at least half of the elite veterans.
Tang Dao replied with a smile: "Don't worry, I will arrive half an hour later tomorrow. There will be people who like Li Jijin, a bastard who likes to hide and tuck in, to think clearly. They don't want face, but their battalion commander does.
.”
As Tang Dao arrived, Gu Xishui asked Tang Dao for instructions and was about to announce the start of the assessment. Because he had sent four squad leaders and six deputy squad leaders, veteran Youzi probably still felt unhappy, curling his lips and making suggestions: "
Wait, they say that the Special Forces Squadron is the elite of our regiment. With just one order, all of us are allowed to take part in the assessment without any standards. Can you show it to us brothers in the ordinary company first, so that we all feel better?
There is also a number.”
"This" Gu Xishui turned his attention to Tang Dao, showing that he was not afraid, but with the regimental commander here, it was not easy for him to make the decision.
"That's what Captain Li said. If you just assess others and don't show some skills yourself, it will be difficult to convince the public." Tang Dao smiled and nodded. "Then your reconnaissance company will first send a few people to show it to the brothers. If
If someone meets your standards, he or she will be admitted directly without ranking."
"Okay!" Gu Xishui nodded and was about to call his name.
"Ming Xin can't do it. That guy is a pervert and cannot be viewed as a normal person." Li Jijin was making trouble again, and a group of company commanders who were distressed by the involution nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Captain Jiu Jin is right, Ming Xin can't be counted!" Cai Yongguan's voice roared loudly.
Being able to add some trouble to the future reconnaissance company is something that these hard-to-get-together guys want.
Anyone who asked the reconnaissance company to come up was "ordered" to poach corners, and it also created a situation where they had to take out all the elites who were under pressure.
Mingxin, who was called a "pervert" by a group of company commanders, didn't even raise her eyebrows, as if she didn't take it to heart at all.
Having been with his comrades in the special squadron for more than two months, Mingxin knows better than anyone what his comrades are capable of. Even if the individual strength is not as good as his, if they form a combat group, he really has no guarantee of victory.
grasp.
No matter who goes into battle, he can still make these company commanders speechless, and Mingxin has full confidence in his comrades.
"See, you guys are very resentful. If you don't cause trouble for the reconnaissance, I can't shut your mouths. Let's do this! You always don't let me go to the front line. My bones are itchy. I have to do some exercise today.
." Tang Dao stood up with a smile. "Shen Laoliu and Luo Bu are out of the queue. I will take you two to practice today!"
As soon as Tang Dao said these words, the noisy company commanders instantly fell silent.
They didn't expect that Tang Tuanzuo would support the reconnaissance company to such an extent that he would go into battle "shirtless" himself.
"Captain, please don't use it!" Director Ye on the side was startled and quickly advised.
A selection of elite soldiers ended up involving him personally participating in a regiment battle. If his skills were superior to those of the entire audience, it would be of course undisputed, but if he was outcompeted by the soldiers, it would be embarrassing. In his opinion, Tang Dao
This risk is a bit big.
"Hehe, Director Ye, you don't know this. The team members are trying to shock those bastards with their nostrils in the air and let them know what it means to be a real elite." Lei Xiong on the side chuckled in Ye Chenghuan's ears.
Said while saying.
"But having said that, it's been a long time since I saw a regimental commander show off his individual skills. I don't know if the regimental commander has been doing well during this period, whether he has improved or regressed. I'm really looking forward to it!"
"Uh! Commander Tang, he used to be..." Ye Chenghuan was stunned.
The materials given to him by the 80th Group Army were all examples of Tang Dao leading his troops in battles. His commanding skills were superb, but no one said how excellent Tang Dao was in individual combat.
Moreover, for a regiment-level commander, is it important whether an individual soldier is excellent in combat?
"Hehe, if nothing else, just Li Jijin and his gang can beat the crap out of them with one shot." Lei Xiong pointed at the few lieutenants standing over there and said with a smile.
"This" Ye Chenghuan took a sharp breath, but his face was full of disbelief.
Those standing there are the commanders of at least six infantry companies of the three infantry battalions of the Fourth Infantry Regiment. A few months ago, those guys were just big soldiers. Now they can become company commanders, which means that they
They were all fought out from the battlefields of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. How about a simple thing?
Take Cai Yongguan as an example. Regarding his information, Ye Chenghuan, who is currently the director of the Political Training Department of the Four Elements Regiment, has seen it in the internal files of the Four Elements Regiment. In the battle of Mouse Mountain alone, he died with his thick handle.
There were as many as eight Japanese infantrymen under the sword. It is no exaggeration to say that he killed people like melons and vegetables.
If this were placed in ancient times, he would be a fierce general who would be the best in the three armies.
Even Ye Chenghuan, who had fought his way through hundreds of bloody battles to reach his current position, could not say that he would win with certainty against such an opponent.
As a result, Lei Xiong said that Tang Dao could beat the shit out of these powerful guys. Who would believe it?
"Hey, I don't believe it! Just look at it, Director Ye." Lei Xiong didn't explain much.
While the two were talking, Tang Dao, who had already named Shen Laoliu and Wu Naudio, carried a large backpack filled with stones. On the backpack was a Liao-made Thirteen Rifle, and 6 grenades and parallel imports were hung on the body.
Ordnance engineer shovel.
With just one order, Tang Dao and the two special forces rushed out of the starting point like arrows.
Ye Chenghuan's mouth twitched slightly, and he started running at full speed. What should he do during the extremely energy-consuming section of the mountain climbing?
More importantly, even if the three-kilometer cross-country run is not slow, what about the subsequent push-ups and sit-ups?
If you follow his strategy, you would rather run slower and save enough energy to do the next two items. Otherwise, you may not be able to complete 100 of the prone and straight up items, and you will be eliminated.
As a demonstration, the regiment leader Tang Dao and the two special forces cannot even meet this standard! That would really make people laugh.
However, judging from the continuous cheers at the scene, it seemed that few people were worried about Tang Tuanzuo making a fool of himself. This phenomenon that was quite contrary to common sense really made Ye Chenghuan feel that he had made some mistake.
He still doesn't know enough about Tang Dao.
In fact, the speed of Tang Dao was not only beyond Ye Chenghuan's imagination, but even Lei Xiong, who thought he knew Tang Dao very well, opened his mouth in surprise.
Cheers and cheers erupted from time to time on the mountain ridge, which meant that Tang Dao had reached a certain position, which almost meant that Tang Dao had been maintaining a high-speed sprint state to be able to do this.
Eight minutes later, when Tang Dao's figure appeared in front of the officers and soldiers at the bottom of the valley amidst deafening cheers, Ye Chenghuan and a group of officers of the Four Lines Regiment who were extremely familiar with Tang Dao fell silent collectively.
Even Ming Xin, who was criticized as a pervert by a group of company commanders, looked shocked when he saw Tang Dao striding back with a big backpack on his back.
‘Pervert’, no, the word super pervert is perfectly suitable to be used on this regimental commander.
8 minutes, even if you don't carry any weight, running 3000 meters on the mountain road is already extremely good, and you are the best among the best anywhere.
But their 'perverted' non-human leader accomplished all this while carrying a weight of 30 kilograms.
"Tang Dao completed the first item, now apply to complete the second item!" As Tang Dao rushed to the assessment site, he dropped his large backpack and reported loudly.
"Accurate!" Gu Xishui ordered.
Tang Dao immediately knelt on the ground and began to lie down and push up in an extremely standard posture.
"180,181" As the surrounding officers and soldiers couldn't help but collectively report the numbers, two special forces soldiers, Shen Laoliu and No Brain, ran over sweating profusely.
Although the time of 11 minutes and 20 seconds was far inferior to Tang Dao, no one dared to laugh at them.
Only soldiers know how rare this achievement is.
After the two of them ran over, they immediately, like Tang Dao, didn't even give themselves time to catch their breath and threw themselves into the second movement assessment.
Tang Dao’s final results were 8 minutes and 13 seconds in cross-country running, 183 push-ups in 3 minutes, and 176 sit-ups in 3 minutes.
The results of the two special forces were cross-country running of 11 minutes and 26 seconds and 11 minutes and 34 seconds, push-ups and push-ups of 3 minutes and 142 and 146 seconds, and sit-ups and sit-ups of 3 minutes and 132 and 138 seconds respectively.
The dazzling results of the three people taught a group of company commanders who were holding their breath and elites who were ready to go, a good lesson.
Tang Tuanzuo is still the awesome sergeant squad leader who single-handedly defeated four Japanese invaders with one shot. The special forces he trained with the flames of war are equally impressive.
Later, Li Jiujin couldn't help but asked Mingxin secretly out of curiosity, what kind of results he could achieve if he, a perverted player, were asked to take the assessment.
Ming Xin made an estimate, but shook her head: "Even if I try my best, I can only equal the final result of the regimental commander, but the regimental commander is..."
Needless to say, Li Jijin, a veteran, knew that Tang Dao never said he would try his best that day.
Because, he then presided over the assessment of 300 people and stayed at the assessment site for a full 4 hours.
However, the two guys, Shen Laoliu and No Brain, had to wait at the scene for almost half an hour and replenished a large amount of salt water before they were able to calm down and participate in the assessment.
This is considered to be an extremely strong physical fitness. Because of the performance standards of the three of them, many elites tried their best to keep up with the three of them, but in the end they were beaten by them in the 3000-meter cross-country run.
Some people were so vomited before they even reached the finish line that they couldn't even participate in the second and third items.
"If you don't even know how much strength you have, and you have to forcefully compare yourself with better people, which will lead to problems with physical distribution, this is a deficiency in itself, and you need to practice more." Tang Dao's comments about them were spot-on.
However, elites are elites. Although the assessment is extremely difficult, 100 people were eventually selected into the reconnaissance company to become reserve members. They still need to undergo more rigorous training to become real reconnaissance company soldiers. If they cannot complete it before entering the battlefield
After the final assessment, they will return to their original units.
Captain Li Dal, who was deeply hurt by the involution, luckily got smart in the end and invested all his elite Seventh Company. Although they did not come out on top in this competition, they did manage to get good results. The 15 people who signed up did so well.
Seven of them were selected, and finally they did not embarrass the 3rd Battalion.
In the end, Lei Xiong's battalion was the most powerful, investing 80 elites, and the number of selected soldiers was as high as 40, maintaining the reputation of the Sharp Knife Battalion.
Tang Dao also kept his word. Not only did he fill the quota of 200 recruits, but in the future, the first battalion became the first batch of new equipment to be installed, and its combat effectiveness increased instead of decreasing.
But the winner is not just one battalion.
After the reconnaissance company was successfully expanded, the Fourth Army Regiment Headquarters officially announced a new round of expansion plans.
The strength of the three major infantry battalions and several directly-affiliated companies has all expanded crazily.

ps: There was no update yesterday. There were too many things going on. My parents were not well yet. I took them to the clinic to get fluids. Then my daughter left the books and belongings in the dormitory at school and the teacher notified them to clean them up. Fengyue has not yet recovered.
I worked on it in the afternoon until seven or eight in the evening. When I came back, I still had to write that science fiction book. I guess no one in the production team had ever used it like this.
Next month, Feng Yue’s online classes will also be suspended. I have a lot of time to code, so I will make sure to update them. This month, I ask for your forgiveness.
This chapter has been completed!
