Chapter 160: Shortcuts, Options
Wu Yingjie and Luo Shiquan used a similar approach to select twenty-one recruits each from the ranks of junior high school graduates.
Next, the selection of other recruits, Wu Yingjie and Luo Shiquan were handed over to Zhang Cheng and Zhou Yong respectively.
Qin Yushu, Cheng Dazhu, Shen Zhuzi, Chen Yang, Wu Ping'an, Zhao Peng and Fang Wazi stood in the back team, anxiously paying attention to the movements in front.
After seeing that Ruan Haocheng was selected by Wu Yingjie into the second battalion, he was even more anxious.
When Zhang Cheng and Zhou Yonglai came to select personnel, they volunteered to report their names to Zhang Cheng.
Zhang Cheng looked at these somewhat familiar faces, remembered the careful thinking of his battalion commander, and let a few of them get their wish and let them stand in the queue of the second battalion.
In addition to these few people, what Zhang Cheng didn't expect was that Cui Zhiyong also volunteered to go to the second camp, and of course Liu Yuming and Kong Lingcheng who followed him.
Zhang Cheng felt that he couldn't do anything about these people, so he went to ask Wu Yingjie for advice.
After Wu Yingjie thought about it for a while, he also included these people in the second battalion.
When Wu Yingjie and Luo Shiquan were selecting recruits, the other four battalion commanders also selected their favorite recruits among the recruits they greeted.
At about eleven o'clock, this process of selecting new recruits is over.
Next, the remaining recruits from each part were assigned to six battalions according to their combined factors.
It took another hour, twelve o'clock, and all the recruits had their own whereabouts.
After having lunch in the camp where they had temporarily rested last night, the recruits gathered at the designated place for each battalion in the colonel, and then returned to their respective battalions under the leadership of the battalion commanders of their respective battalions.
At two o'clock, Ruan Haocheng and nearly 500 recruits from his own battalion arrived at the camp of the second battalion located in the southeast corner of the headquarters of the first regiment of recruits of the military region.
The camp covers an area of about 10 acres, with neat barracks lined up in the north, an open training ground in the middle, and various training facilities in the south.
After all the other doors were all in place and lined up neatly in the training ground, Zhang Cheng came to them with a team of veterans of about 30 people.
Only then did they know that Zhang Cheng was not an ordinary veteran, but the current instructor of their second battalion.
In addition to him, there are also deputy battalion commander Liu Guohai and deputy instructor Wu Qingfeng.
The two leaders who stayed behind in the camp and did the logistics for the recruits also came to them after the group of thirty people.
Zhang Cheng first introduced Liu Guohai and Wu Qingfeng to the recruits, and finally announced to them that among the 30 veterans brought here, in addition to four company commanders and four company-level instructors, the other 26 were specially selected elites from among the veterans and would serve as platoon commanders of each platoon of the recruits in the short term.
The task of these temporary platoon commanders is to train the recruits for a short period of time, and when one of the recruits is qualified to serve as the platoon commander, they will each return to their own battalions.
After announcing the introduction of these people, Zhang Cheng read out to everyone the list of personnel who were assigned to each company and platoon, and ordered the recruits to be arranged in corresponding positions according to the companies they belonged to.
Ruan Haocheng, Chen Zhiyun, and Guo Tao were assigned to the first and second rows, Chen Ziqiang was assigned to the first and second rows, and Wang Haonan and Liu Bin were assigned to the third row.
In addition, according to Zhang Cheng, each squad has ten soldiers, plus a temporary squad leader, for a total of eleven people.
According to the regulations of the regiment, the temporary squad leaders are all high school graduates.
