Chapter 16: The Extreme Trek
The next morning, a team of Lu Hai and others was called to the brigade headquarters early, Zhang Chong looked at Lu Hai and their uniforms and were full of energy, and he was quite satisfied, and the pain on his face flashed before he spoke: "Do you know what I called you for?"
"I don't know! Please show the brigade commander "! Several people spoke in unison, whether they knew or not, it was best to pretend that they didn't know anything at this moment. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Chong smiled faintly and said, "How do you feel about following me to suppress bandits?"
"The brigade commander is wise and martial, and he has no last resort, the brigade commander's soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and they are all great heroes, and the skills we learned after following the brigade commander are very useful"! But Sun Yang said with a sneer.
"Fart! Say it seriously"! Zhang Chong scolded with a smile.
Lu Hai's face was serious, but he said: "I don't share the sky with the bandits, and the brigade commander takes us to suppress the bandits, and I can't ask for it!"
"What's going on"? Zhang Chong asked.
"Brigade Commander, Xiao Hai and I were plagued by bandits when we were in eastern Yunnan before. Those bandits have no humanity, and even Xiaohai's seriously ill grandmother didn't let go"! Chen Liang said with a heavy face.
Wang Bingzhang also put away the smile on his face, and said with a serious face: "I heard that the two of you made a big fuss about the bandits, killed more than a dozen bandits, and killed the big boss and the second boss of Heifeng Village"?
"Well, kill"! Lu Hai's voice was a little hoarse, but his face was a little flat.
"Very good, back then, Chairman Long dared to break into the bandits' den with one knife and more than 30 bandits, and now you can be regarded as having his demeanor back then, no wonder Chairman Long will agree to you to enter the school to study"! Zhang Chong's face finally had a hint of appreciation and said.
"Do you know what I did before I joined the army"? Zhang Chong looked at Lu Hai and said.
"I don't know"! Lu Hai said.
"I was a bandit back then"! Zhang Chong said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, Lu Hai's Chen Liang's face was a little complicated, and Li Fan and Sun Yang were a little shocked, the Yunnan officers and soldiers who led them to suppress bandits were actually bandits? It's also incredible.
"The current brigade commander and a series of officers of the Dian Army are almost all from the martial arts, only I am not, I was a bandit before, but I don't have the blood of ordinary people in my hands, and I was recruited later, what do you think"? Zhang Chong looked into Lu Hai's eyes and said.
Zhang Chong's eyes flickered, as if he wanted to see something clearly. Lu Hai only felt that Zhang Chong's eyes were blazing, and there was almost a burning illusion, but he never spoke, and Chen Liang on the side couldn't help but get nervous, Lu Hai hated bandits, he knew best, he was afraid that if he said anything, Zhang Chong's words would be troublesome, after all, although Zhang Chong was said to be the brigade commander, his status in the Yunnan army was extraordinary, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was highly respected, and even Long Yun had to sell him a few thin noodles.
Lu Hai looked at Zhang Chong's eyes without the slightest evasion, and only after a while did he speak: "In troubled times, some things can't be controlled by us, but those who kill civilians, whether they are soldiers or bandits, deserve to die!"
Zhang Chong smiled faintly and said, "That's right! You kid is good, are you interested in staying in my army in the future"!
"Thank you Brigade Commander Zhang for your appreciation, but I was sent in by Brigade Commander Wan, and I was Brigade Commander Wan's soldier before this, so it's not good!" Lu Hai said.
Zhang Chong let out a long breath and no longer looked at Lu Hai, but looked at Chen Liang and said, "What about you"?
"We are together, and I am also a soldier of Brigade Commander Wan, if we follow you now, we will not be as good as Brigade Commander Wan when the time comes"! Chen Liang said.
"What about you"? Zhang Chong said.
"It is our honor to be able to follow the brigade commander, and we naturally have nothing to be reluctant towards"! Li Fan and the others said loudly.
Zhang Chong smiled at this time: "Okay, I called you here this morning to let you take the exam"!
"Didn't we already miss the exam?" Li Fan said.
"Let you participate, you will participate, then there are so many problems"! Zhang Chong said with a grim face.
"Yes"!
"A few of you will quickly set off according to the current establishment and catch up with the subjects that start at noon!" Zhang Chong ordered.
"Yes"!
It was almost noon, and Lu Hai and the others finally came to the examination room in the suburbs of Kunming after a noon hurried, only to see that the entire school field was already full of people at this moment, but the so-called artillery company, engineer company, and infantry company had all been broken up and combined into a combat group composed of squads.
Lu Hai took a few people to the front and said, "Report, we apply to participate in the assessment"!
Standing above was a middle-aged regiment leader in his forties, who was Chen Zhongshu, who was in charge of this assessment, and when he saw Lu Hai and others coming, he said: "Join the ranks"!
After Lu Hai and a combat squad entered the queue, Chen Zhongshu spoke: "Today's assessment is divided into three parts, the first is long-distance running, the second is group confrontation, and the third is company bayonet confrontation.
"Hear me clearly"!
Chen Zhongshu glanced at his watch and said: "It's twelve o'clock at noon, your task is to carry equipment in the group and move quickly to the Chengjiang area, note: it is the team coordination, if one person is left behind, you are not qualified as a whole!" Did you hear me clearly"?
"Clear"!
"Time three hours, go"!
As soon as the words fell, a group of soldiers began to set off towards Chengjiang, the troops of thousands of people did not show chaos, they set off in a tense and orderly manner, and all of them had set off in about ten minutes, and Lu Hai's group was one of the first groups to set off because they were standing outside.
But seeing these students, no one set off with their own equipment, whether it was light or heavy machine guns or mortars, they all brought them, and the most bitter one was Sun Yang, who was carrying a whole box of artillery shells, so you can imagine how much of a challenge this fast maneuver was for him.
After running for a few miles, Sun Yang couldn't hold on, and several engineer companies in the rear hurriedly replaced Sun Yang's shells, and asked Sun Yang to take the rifles and other light equipment of the engineer company to continue running.
They have been in a hurry this morning, the original physical strength is seriously consumed, what makes them even more headache is that today's departure is more hurried, and they forgot to eat breakfast again, who knows that they were directly involved in it, and they couldn't eat two mouthfuls of food.
Fortunately, they are all regular students who have received all kinds of cruel training in the lecture hall, and the real training rigor of the lecture hall is more than a cup stronger than the rigor of the ordinary army, so although their physical strength has not stopped, they still insist on running, and they are still in the forefront of the team.
After running for a few more miles, Sun Yang began to be unable to hold on, and the mortar on his body was also taken over by Chen Liang, and Sun Jianying's machine gun was also exchanged with Lu Hai and continued to run.
"Xiaohai, it's no good, I can't hold on, my eyes are full of stars"! Li Fan said weakly with sweat on his face.
"Me too, my legs and stomach have been spinning, I have to run dizzy like this, or let's rest for a while and run"! Sun Yang echoed.
Chen Liang on the side was also sweating profusely, and said with an almost wet military uniform: "Xiaohai, if we rest for a while, we haven't eaten breakfast, and we have to run away like this!"
"No, if we can't arrive at the specified time, even if we fail the assessment, do you want us to be a joke in the martial arts? In the insistence on "! Lu Hai said.
"But they've all eaten, and we don't even have time to gnaw the bark, and if we go on like this, we'll be completely dizzy, and then we'll all fail!" Li Fan said.
Lu Hai's brows furrowed, they had been on the road today, and they couldn't even eat before they encountered such a forced march, even Lu Hai himself only felt that his body was about to reach the limit, so he had to speak: "Slow down, but don't stop, I want to find a way"!
Everyone slowed down slowly, almost marching in a walking way, and the troops chasing behind were also moving towards the distance one after another, Lu Hai looked around, only to see a small hill hundreds of meters in front of him, and his heart moved and said: "Liangzi, you come with me, you continue to march and wait for us to chase you"!
"What are you going to do?" Sun Yang asked with difficulty.
"You'll know in a moment, you keep going"! After saying that, Lu Hai and Chen Liang jogged towards the hill and soon disappeared into the forest.
"What's going on with them"? Li Fan asked.
"Let's keep moving at this pace, as for what they want to do, we don't care, we will know when the time comes"! Zhao Jianying said.
A few people ran out of a mile with difficulty, and Sun Yang fell down violently and said: "No, I really can't run, you go first, I'll rest for a while and I'm chasing you"!
Seeing this, Zhao Jianying, who was on the side, hurriedly picked up the equipment on Sun Yang's back, reached out to pull Sun Yang and said, "Hurry up, you won't be able to catch up with us if you rest for a while"!
"How far have we run"! Li Fan asked with difficulty.
"Twenty miles away! There are still thirty miles to Chengjiang, and we still have an hour, and we can't catch up if we continue like this!" Zhao Jianying said with a frown.
"Xiaohai, what are they doing?" Sun Yang asked.
