"Everyone, work hard...... Hey! Let's work hard...... Hey! ”

In the drizzle, on the rugged mountain road leading to the field shooting range, groups of students in khaki training uniforms could be seen everywhere, shouting loud trumpets and dragging heavy cannons, slowly moving towards their destination. For these hairy guys who have not officially started their military careers, the road of more than 40 kilometers has never been as long as it is now!

Of the more than 200 students in the same period, the No. 3 student champion Lune Schmidt was neither the tallest nor the strongest, but during this arduous journey, he showed all the doubters his physical strength: the old man not only did not take the burden lightly because he was the captain, but actively helped his teammates share the pressure. On the flat march, he either surveyed the road in front or helped the ammunition men carry the ammunition boxes; When encountering an uphill road, he planned the route, formulated the division of labor, and dragged the cannon with everyone; Everyone rested, and he carried everyone's kettle to fill the water, but he didn't care about taking a few more breaths......

Seeing that the field shooting range set up on the high ground was getting closer and closer, and his team had left the other teams behind, Wei Silang said: "Brothers, I am convinced to meet such a captain!" Are you convinced? ”

Most of the students responded in unison: "Convinced! ”

"Do you support such a captain?"

"Yes!"

This convincing and supportive voice made the Xueba, who was at the front of the team, turn his head and show a pleased smile.

Weiss's move is neither to slap him off, nor to simply elevate his prestige, but to increase the cohesion of the team, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort in this and future team training and assessment - according to Vice President Fat's summary and analysis, half of the purpose of the three-year course of the Badton Military Academy is to let the cadets firmly master various military training and command skills, and the other half is to let them understand the meaning and skills of teamwork. It is also necessary to synthesize the results and performance of various team assessments during the military academy.

"Own" first-year academic performance was able to pass the risk, and Lune-Schmidt also has a lot of credit.

After scanning the students, Luen-Schmidt also gave Weiss a look of gratitude.

Weiss nodded and accepted it.

With a captain who took the lead and commanded well, and a team member who worked together and had no reservations, the 9th Artillery was able to arrive at the field shooting range at dusk and became the first of the 13 artillery teams to complete the first phase of the mission.

After settling in for the night's camp, Luen-Schmidt announced that the team members were allowed to move on their own within a limited range, and specifically instructed Weiss to prepare the cannon shooting in advance.

For Weiss, correcting the firing parameters of the gun was just a procedural task that could be done with a little time. At dusk, he stood quietly in front of the designated gun emplacement, looking at the hillside directly opposite the field shooting range. There are 24 forts with various flags, which are the "ultimate goals" that the cadets of each team need to deal with in this training assessment.

From the point of view of appearance, they rely on the mountain, built a rampart-style permanent fortification, and Weiss stayed overnight in the Monamolin Mountains No. 9 shelter, but the fortress here was built for military cadets to practice gunnery, the structure is rougher, but rough does not mean fragile, their outer walls are made of concrete instead of ordinary earth and stone, and the arc shape has a certain bullet avoidance effect, plus the small-caliber rapid-fire cannon is already limited, this time it is a training projectile, It will not be easy to destroy these fortresses completely.

"Hey, they didn't make you captain?"

Weiss didn't have to look back, as soon as he heard the voice, he knew that it was a "nosy" baby-faced brother.

"Nope." Weiss replied very decisively.

The little brother teased: "It seems that they don't know how to make the best use of things and make the best use of talents!" ”

Weiss disagreed: "This is a team training subject, one is prosperous, one is lost, there is no need to care so much about personal gains and losses." ”

The baby-faced brother was silent for a moment: "Since you returned from vacation, you have really matured a lot, sometimes it makes me feel strange, but I have to admire you, you can have such a mind, you will definitely be a person who will do great things in the future!" ”

"Come on, I, a person who can't even rank in the top 20, dare to talk about big things in front of you." Weiss deliberately teased him.

In many ways, the two have common topics and can accept each other's expressions, so the baby-faced brother, who is very sensitive in front of outsiders, can be teased casually when he comes to Weiss.

"I'm saying this from my heart!"

"But after all, this is a world that speaks by strength." Weiss said seriously.

"Yes! A world where force reigns supreme......" The baby-faced little brother lowered his head and looked thoughtful.

Weiss's left eyelid jumped suddenly: "You have something to say!" Hey, what's going on, or have you heard something? ”

The baby-faced guy sighed, then shook his head, not revealing any information.

But Weiss had a strong instinct that it had something to do with the Norman Empire. Didn't you mean...... The empire, whose ambitions of expansion have been revived along with its military might, is no longer able to resist provoking a new war?

While Weiss was speculating in his heart, the baby-faced brother changed the subject: "Hey, how many shells do you think it will take to solve the target on the opposite side?" ”

"I don't know." Weiss replied somewhat absent-mindedly.

"You don't even know?" The baby-faced guy frowned, "We only brought 16 shells, which seems to be far from enough." ”

Weiss said casually, "It depends on your accuracy." ”

One minute ago, the baby-faced brother still looked worried about the country and the people, and the next second, his expression changed, and he laughed as before: "Ha! When it comes to artillery accuracy, you're a master! How about correcting the shooting parameters for us now when you have time? ”

In the artillery shooting assessment stage, there was no direct competition between the teams, and whether Weiss shot or not had little impact on the final assessment results, so he did not refuse, nor did he respond quickly, but started the business of "sitting on the ground and starting the price": "Okay! Please pay the Special Adviser's Fee...... 1000 CZK! ”

Seeing Weiss stretch out his hand to him, the baby-faced brother glared and said, "1000 crowns!" Why don't you go to the roadblock and rob it? ”

Weiss replied solemnly: "Being a thief in the Wuthering Heights is indeed one of my childhood dreams. ”

"That's it!" The baby-faced brother waved his hand and said, "Your artillery performance is excellent, and my artillery performance is also excellent." If I'm serious, I won't lose to you! ”

"That's right!" Wei Si smiled, "On the training ground, we each rely on our abilities, we don't have to be humble, if we go to the battlefield one day, I will never shirk what I can help you!" ”

"Cut!" The baby-faced guy rolled his eyes and walked behind his back to see his team members set up tents.

After seeing his good friend leave, Weiss glanced at the sunset that was gradually sinking into the horizon, collected his mood, and prepared to go back to the tent to rest, only to turn around and see Luen-Schmidt.

The guy stood in front of the tent and watched himself from afar.

Weiss walked straight over and stopped three or four steps away from him: "The preliminary adjustment has been completed, and the final calculations need to be made before the shooting starts tomorrow, and...... I can't guarantee a one-hit hit, and I can't guarantee that a hit will destroy! ”

The handsome half-race guy smiled slightly, revealing his dimples: "I know, thank you!" ”

"Thank me for what? A team should work together sincerely. Weiss politely replied.

The handsome mixed-race guy said in a gentle and warm tone: "Thank you for what you should be thankful for." ”

Weiss nodded, and didn't prevaricate.

Then, Rune's gaze turned to where the baby-faced guy was, "Hey, that guy has been doing pretty well lately, and he has the demeanor of his father. ”

He suddenly mentioned the baby-faced brother's father, which surprised Weiss, so he casually asked, "So, do you know his father?" ”

Lune glanced at Weiss like a monster: "In addition to the well-known situation, there is indeed some special origin...... My father had the privilege of working with President Leboyd. ”

President Leibold!

Weiss turned his head pretending to be calm and glanced over at the baby-faced guy. Nicolas Lebold...... No wonder I think I think I have heard his surname somewhere, and now that I think about it, I must have seen the news about the president's activities in the newspaper on the way to Aocheng by train, but I was not very impressed, and after making friends with the baby-faced brother, I did not connect the two.

"By the way, I remember you told me that you went with your father to meet the president six years ago, and you met Nikolai at that time, huh?"

Lunn's words really stumped Weiss, who was now like an amnesiac with no knowledge of what had happened in the past.

Fortunately, Lune only mentioned it in passing, and did not interrogate Weiss. Weiss didn't say a word, and he didn't feel anything wrong, so he continued the topic: "Speaking of which, I have known him for fourteen years, and we are very familiar with each other, but we are not a pair of good friends, and our ambitions, interests, and ideas always seem to be incompatible, and we rarely talk together like you. ”

"Really?" Weiss scratched his head, "I didn't mean to befriend him, but it seems that quite a few people see it that way." ”

"Everyone has their own path to follow, and you don't need to care too much about what others say. ”

What others think, Weiss really doesn't have to care too much, what he just said is completely a declarative statement by Lune.

Rune turned his head and stared at Weiss with a serious expression: "He really treats you as a friend!" ”

Weiss replied with a blank look: "I really think of him as a friend, too!" ”

The handsome mixed-race guy patted him on the shoulder with a deliberate feeling: "Treat him well, don't lie to him, don't betray him, otherwise, I will never spare you!" ”

These words made Weiss depressed for a while: Brother, with my stupid brain, can I still pit such a guy with a flexible brain, quick skills, and who understands all kinds of people? Besides, how does this seem like the eldest brother is admonishing his future brother-in-law?
