Chapter 103: Ma Run Recruit Company!
At the same time, outside the Marine Corps' recruiting office in the Himalayan port, Wu Nan stood quietly outside the door waiting.
After the Chunshen incident, the Hunter Academy was suspended, and Wu Nan also stayed at home for a long time, accepting various summons and investigations from aliens.
In those days when she was coldly watched and questioned by aliens, she gradually began to regret why she didn't follow Yuan Xiaomu in the first place.
After the outbreak of the full-scale war, the conscription notice of appropriate age was also issued, and Wu Nan received the rank of second lieutenant in the Marine Corps with a letter of introduction from the courtyard, becoming an official fourth-class class.
Standing beside her were Lu Dashu and Niu Xiang, who had followed her all the way, and the three of them had just come here to report for two days, and they had washed away their dust, although they had not fully adapted to it, but judging from their faces, they had at least recovered some energy.
"The conditions of this Marun base are also ......" Lu Dashu suddenly paused in the middle of his words, thinking that it was not good to discuss here, so he swallowed the second half of the sentence.
Niu Xiang also glanced around, stretched out his hand and touched the rusty iron sheet on the wall, looked at the rust on his hand, and couldn't help but shake his head, "The conditions are too bad, this is the environment in the port, if you get on the ship, I'm afraid it won't be lived." β
"yes." Lu Dashu's face was bitter.
Wu Nan said indifferently, "But after thinking about it, fortunately, the taxpayers' money was not used for these faΓ§ade efforts, and I hope that the weapons and ammunition distributed by then will be in good condition." β
Hearing such words, Lu Dashu and Niu Xiang were stunned, and after thinking about it, they nodded one after another, feeling that it made sense.
"The most important thing is that we are the landing force." Wu Nan's voice was suddenly lowered, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "We have to do the dirtiest and most tiring work, and we have the highest death rate among all branches of the military, so it doesn't matter what the living conditions are." β
Hearing this, Lu Dashu and Niu Xiang looked bitter, the two of them were even worse than Wu Nan as an officer, they were ordinary soldiers.
And with the end of the conscription, hundreds of thousands of marines are about to land on the moon, and the news of fighting the Covenant robot army has also spread.
"I hope we are not the first batch of cannon fodder......" Niu Xiang couldn't help frowning, a little anxious.
Just when all three of them were a little anxious, a man dressed plainly, but tall and burly, walked out.
Dong Biao said succinctly: "Wu Nan came in first, and the other two continued to wait." β
The language is rushed, and it is clear that time waits for no one, which is also understandable.
In peacetime before the outbreak of the war, Dong Biao was only a company commander.
However, once the war broke out, in the face of the huge numerical advantage of the Star Alliance, all countries could only hurriedly start the recruitment of appropriate age, and officers at all levels basically had to be promoted to one or two levels, and Dong Biao also became the battalion commander.
And the first thing in front of him was the assignment of recruits who were called up.
The number of recruits in the entire Marine Corps base has exceeded 30,000, and hundreds of people have been assigned to their battalions.
How the work of war works is tricky, and many situations are the first encounters for officers accustomed to peacetime.
Dong Biao's 9th Battalion of the 203rd Regiment of the 9th Division also has a lot of work, so naturally it is impossible for everyone to meet and chat in person.
So considering that he will not have the opportunity to get acquainted with everyone in the future, Dong Biao can only take advantage of the present to quickly select the recruits and arrange them to the right positions.
Each interview will not last more than 3 minutes.
Wu Nan hurriedly straightened his clothes and walked in.
After entering the office, facing several officers, Wu Nan's body stood straight, revealing a majestic and awe-inspiring aura.
Seeing this, several officers who had planned to sit quietly for questioning were suddenly startled, and their surprises were unreservedly displayed on their faces.
Dong Biao stared at Wu Nan motionlessly, and took the lead in asking, "What is your name and what kind of work did you do before your service?" β
"Report, my name is Wu Nan, and I served as the captain of the Hunter Academy Athletic Team of Chunshen University before I served." Wu Nan made a loud voice.
Her military posture is too upright, and the aura she exudes when she stands at random is even rare for many male soldiers.
The Hunter Academy is a semi-military education, and the officers present subconsciously thought that the female second lieutenant in front of him must have been a female soldier for at least several years before.
After learning about this situation, Dong Biao still had a calm face, "Second Lieutenant Wu Nan, the Marine Corps is the military branch with the highest casualty rate, if you are given a chance to make a choice, are you willing to follow us to charge into battle, or stay in the rear to do logistics work?" β
"I'm used to charging into battle," Wu Nan didn't hesitate at all, his eyes looked directly at Dong Biao, and his tone was flat, "I haven't experienced actual combat, but I have been serving as an assault soldier during my time as the captain, the team's competition win rate has increased from 46% to 58%, and the individual kill ratio has been maintained above 3, although it can't be compared with actual combat, but I believe that I can quickly adapt to front-line combat and take care of my comrades." β
Wu Nan's tone was indifferent when he said this, but in the ears of several officers, it was as deafening as thunder, and everyone looked at Wu Nan with complete incredulity.
Because the previous recruits were either impassioned and ruthless, or hesitant and timid.
It was the first time they had seen a recruit who was able to show both sanity and courage at the same time with such indifference.
Even though Wu Nan does not have any experience in joining the army, her bearing has made everyone realize that this is a competitive veteran with rich combat experience.
Needless to say, the value of competitive talent to the army is understood by everyone.
Many competitive players are invited by the military to be consultants or instructors, but there are also many athletes with both courage and skill who are willing to sink into the front line, starting from an ordinary soldier.
As for Wu Nan, in fact, she didn't have any other ideas, she knew that she had no other way to choose, and she would go wherever she was arranged.
After all, she had already missed an opportunity and didn't want to miss it again.
After a long silence, Dong Biao's calm expression was filled with affirmation, "In that case, welcome to join the Marine Corps, you have officially become the deputy commander of the recruit company of the 9th Battalion." β
Everyone also nodded slightly, in their opinion, this is indeed a malleable talent.
Seeing everyone's affirmative expressions, the gratitude in Wu Nan's eyes flashed, and he immediately saluted, "Thank you, battalion commander." β
In less than a minute, just a few words, the interview was over.
After leaving the office, this stormy wartime efficiency also struck Wu Nan's heart like a lightning strike.
Also in the evening of that day, the assignment of recruits, which had taken three days of hard work, officially ended.
Lu Dashu and Niu Xiang were also assigned to the recruit company and became Wu Nan's soldiers.
After the reorganization of the troops, the first task they received was to transport their supplies and equipment to the port, and then wait for the huge warships to be stored and distributed.
The transportation work in the starport is even longer than on the ground.
Supplies and the flow of people are achieved through several spacious covered bridges, which can guarantee the air supply within the covered bridges.
However, the air in the bridge area is much thinner and the temperature is extremely cold, so just in case, you still need to wear a light spacesuit when passing through the bridge.
A day later, the group of battleships slowly arrived, and dozens of covered bridges in Starport also began to move.
