Chapter 28: One More Lesson

The training playground of the Dragonscale Reserve is about the size of two football fields, and this is only a part of the Dragonscale Reserve Training Camp.

Here, in this little-known area, on this highest-level military secret base, whether it is a desert landform, a jungle landform, or even a snow-capped mountain glacial landform, there is everything in this area that has no markings at all on this ordinary military map.

After the rainstorm, the playground in Area C was muddy and slippery, with no grass, as if it was a swamp, and when the reservists of more than 2,000 people stood on the playground, the muddy mud directly covered the instep.

It is conceivable that this playground has almost become a necessary place for more than 2,000 reservists to crawl and roll every day.

At this moment, there were more than 2,000 people in this playground, and almost every one of them was wrapped in a thick layer of mud, as if they had just escaped from the ground.

Although the whole body was wrapped in mud, although the thick mud covered everyone's expressions, the pair of empty and clear eyes were all rebellious and murderous, like machines that were activated one after another, ready to go to the front line at any time and fight bloodily with just one order.

And the more than two thousand Dragon Scale Guard reserve soldiers, their eyes were all looking longingly ahead, looking at the old man wearing camouflage and carrying a star on his shoulders: She Zhenguo.

Because She Zhenguo represents the goal they are striving for, and what they represent is their lifelong pursuit as soldiers, I saw She Zhenguo raise his right hand and salute all the soldiers with a solemn military salute.

"Salute ......"

Ye Ting, who was behind She Zhenguo, immediately shouted a slogan to everyone, only to hear "Whoa......", which was the sound of the mud-stained right hand raised heavily, and saw that the more than 2,000 reserve soldiers covered in mud all saluted She Zhenguo in unison.

She Zhenguo slowly lowered his right hand, and then motioned for everyone to finish saluting, only to hear him shout in a loud voice to the more than two thousand reserve soldiers:

"Comrades, do you recognize me?" Although She Zhenguo is fifty years old, his loud voice resounded throughout the playground, and he didn't even need a megaphone to transmit his voice to everyone's ears.

But among the reserve soldiers present, no one answered him, it's not that they don't know this old man, it's just that for the dragon scale guard, for the assessment all the time, they are always on guard, for fear that their whim answer will let those shameless and perverted instructors seize the opportunity, so that they can deduct a few points from their assessment scores for no reason and unconditionally.

"Huh!" She Zhenguo looked at the silent playground, he still used that kind smile to hide his helpless embarrassment, in fact, he knew what these soldiers were afraid of, so he simply said directly:

"I believe you should have heard about Squadron Leader Li Bing, all I know, you are worried, worried that this is another assessment for no reason, worried that you will be like Li Bing, who has been fighting here for several years in vain, and finally was kicked back to the original unit like a ball!"

Sure enough, when She Zhenguo's words came out, he clearly saw the look of approval in the eyes of the soldiers with muddy faces, and he smiled slightly again:

"Don't worry, today, at least for now, I, She Zhenguo, use the reputation of the Dragon Scale Guard to assure you, at this moment, what I said, what you heard, and what I expressed, are all not within the scope of the assessment, today, I just state to you the reasons for the elimination of your squadron leader Li Bing, and in addition, I will introduce you to a new 'seed player' of the Dragon Scale Guard that we just accepted!"

When She Zhenguo said the words 'seed player', he deliberately accentuated his tone, even with a hint of confidence and pride, as if this so-called 'seed player' was his next relative!

Maybe others don't know, but Ye Ting and Xue Tao, the two staff officers who have been by She Zhenguo's side for several years, exchanged a clear look with each other, and it is obvious that She Zhenguo's 'impressive course' has begun!

"Oh my mom, is this going to save a big deal?"

At this moment, a thin soldier standing in the back row suddenly muttered to himself, his voice was so soft that even his comrades on both sides of him could barely hear what he was talking about!

But on his mud-covered face, his lips squirmed slightly, but it did not escape She Zhenguo's eyes, although the amplitude and frequency of his lips squirming were almost completely ignored under the cover of mud, but She Zhenguo still saw what he said through lip reading, so She Zhenguo stretched out his hand and pointed at the muttering soldier and said:

"This soldier, you're right, my old man is really ready to save big things! Ha ha! ”

The soldier listened to She Zhenguo's words, felt the strange gazes cast by all the soldiers, and his instinct as a sniper told him that at this moment, the only way to hide was to pretend to be calm, to respond to external changes without change, and to let others completely ignore him.

But She Zhenguo didn't seem to want to ignore him like that, but instead smiled and asked him with a look of appreciation:

"What is your name, that soldier?"

"Report!" The muttering soldier finally found that he couldn't hide, so he simply tore his throat and replied:

"Fourth-level non-commissioned officer Hu Yin, report to you!"

"Hu Yin?" She Zhenguo listened to this familiar name, and Hu Yin's file immediately appeared in his mind, so he nodded and said to this Hu Yin:

"You're the sniper from the Southwest Military Region, the jade-faced fox, right?"

"Report chief, exactly!"

Although Hu Yin has only been in the reserve training camp for a short period of one year, compared to the veterans who have served here for five years, he is completely a new soldier, but there is no trace of timidity in his voice.

"Well, that's good," She Zhenguo nodded and continued:

"I know that everyone present is the king of soldiers in various military regions and camps, but even so, here, even if your service period expires, you may not be able to enter the Dragon Scale Guard, and your squadron leader Li Bing is the best example!"

She Zhenguo swept the eyes of everyone present with his cold gaze, it was obvious that Li Bing had been rectified because of a newcomer, who was not even a real soldier's child, this had undoubtedly spread among them, and this happened to be the most advantageous auxiliary material for his class!

"So, I said that he is a seeded player, I believe you should also know that the number of places for the Dragon Scale Guard is limited, unless the Dragon Scale Guard dies on the battlefield, you are eligible to advance, and this is why as long as you are not eliminated, you must always be here indefinitely to assess and train indefinitely until the end of the five-year period!"

The rules of selection and promotion that She Zhenguo said, all the reserve soldiers present naturally knew it, but they knew very well that a dragon scale guard who was one in a thousand, or even one in a thousand, was the king of soldiers among the king of soldiers, whether it was combat effectiveness or survivability, how could he die on the battlefield so easily?

And this has become the reason why there are still veterans here who have served in the Dragon Scale Guard for five years.
