"All of them, turn back, four columns, a convoy of target training grounds, run and walk."

"Da Da Da"

A burst of heavy footsteps came out, and more than 100 recruits set off en masse to prepare to board the car.

This is the first time that Chen Ming and the others have been to such a far place since they came to the barracks.

Recruit evaluation.

From a few days before coming to the barracks, the squad and platoon commander kept talking about it, mentioning it from time to time, and always took this as the goal of motivating the training of recruits.

Now, it's finally here.

As the first shift, it is natural to board the first car, or the kind of army-green truck that transports troops, or the familiar corner of the carriage.

Chen Ming squatted in this place again, waiting for departure, the difference was that the last time he first arrived at the barracks, everything he saw was fresh.

Now, in the name of the Second Brigade of the Artillery Brigade, we should take part in the appraisal of recruits held by the group army.

Wang Shuaibing still squatted beside him.

When we met for the first time, I thought he was a little silly, and after a long time of contact, he was still naïve...

"Brother Chen, what rank do you think I can get in this competition?"

"Just now, the company commander roared the iron fist of the artillery brigade god of war, defending the border and defending the country, and I was excited to feel that I could fight ten."

"And now?" Chen Ming asked with a smile, there is such a living treasure, and the tension in the carriage because of the evaluation has been washed away a lot.

There is more than one shift in this car, and there are also recruits in the second shift, and after staying for a long time, everyone is familiar with each other.

A carload of people looked at Chen Ming and Wang Shuaibing.

The former is the person with the most hope of getting a good ranking in this competition, after all, how hard Chen Ming worked in this month is obvious to all.

As for the latter, it is purely a comic comparison, and the physical fitness of ten people in a class is at the bottom.

"Now." Wang Shuaibing scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Now calm down, I can make up the numbers at best."

"Don't talk about me, Brother Chen, how are you, do you have confidence? Yesterday's class meeting, the squad leader said that there were three particularly powerful soldiers in the evaluation field, and they seemed to be all athletes, and they were quite good. ”

"I don't know if we'll be able to do it."

"I don't know." Chen Ming shook his head, "But it's okay, it's okay, I won't know until I compare, it doesn't matter if they are athletes or soldiers who have enlisted for the second time." ”

"When it comes to the field, the same venue, the same standard, it is clear who is strong and who is weak."

That's right, too.

Chen Ming's indifference made many nervous recruits in the carriage gradually become calm.

It's not the time for them to come now, and they don't understand anything, even if the dogs on the training ground who are scolded by the squad leader all day long are bloody.

At every turn, they say that their training actions are more laborious than the old lady on the kang, and they are not as good as the children in the kindergarten, but they can scold a lot, and they will be a little immune after all.

Being able to see a bigger arena makes them more excited than worried.

Chen Ming squatted in the corner, silent and no longer spoke, his eyes looked through the gap in the carriage, looking at the regressing buildings outside, slightly distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

......

The other side.

Training Center of the 71st Group Army.

In fact, the so-called training center is to temporarily occupy the No. 3 training ground of the group army, where the training of recruits will be carried out for half a year.

The arena covers an area of 120,000 square meters, about the size of 18 standard football fields.

It sounds like a lot of area, but after removing the parking lot used to park vehicles in the martial arts arena, it can accommodate a dormitory of several thousand people.

The remaining area, supporting the training of four or five thousand people, is still a bit crowded, and the conditions are not as good as those of the artillery brigade recruit company.

Many of the venues were repeatedly used by various companies, and the accommodation was even more rudimentary, because after all, it was a martial arts training ground, and the purpose of building it was to provide a place for combat units to conduct exercises.

Not so much detailed.

But today is different.

Two days in advance, the joint logistics department of the group army arranged for people to draw white lines with white ash here to circle the arena for evaluation.

On the parade platform of the martial arts arena, banners were even pulled, the big red table on the stage was covered with red flannel, and the amplification equipment was neatly stacked aside.

The appraisal of recruits in the group army was a large-scale event, and even the theater of operations had asked about the arrangements.

In addition, Jiang Zhenjun, chief of staff of the theater army, will come to watch the game on behalf of the Eastern Theater, including Feng Chunyang, chief of staff of the 71st Army, and Luo Wentong, commander of the army.

The Joint Logistics Department has arranged the scene quite well.

When Tang Zhen, the commander of the artillery brigade, came over, the head of the military region had not yet arrived.

It happened that the three new training regiments in the training center were forming a team, and in the open space in front of the exercise ground, rows and rows, groups of recruits began to enter the ranks with neat steps and shouting loud slogans.

Tang Zhen stood in a slightly remote place and watched the meeting, shaking his head slightly, every year in the big competition, the recruits from the brigade can't get the first echelon ranking.

It's not just a matter of cardinality, either.

The training conditions on this side of the martial arts arena are more arduous, and the training venues have to compete for use most of the time, which will also lead to the three new training regiments, and the training atmosphere will be higher and more prosperous.

What's more, the momentum and tension of thousands of people training together are far more than the feeling of more than 100 people training together.

This may be the fundamental reason why the recruit company of their artillery brigade did not get good results in previous years.

Tang Zhen sighed with emotion, looked up at the other side, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

The few people standing on the other side are all well-known "bears" of the group army, with very sharp noses, and they have to arrive early for every big competition, ready to look for some good seedlings, walk around privately, and pull people to their own troops.

It is commonly known as "stealing the stick".

Anyway, every year, regardless of whether they are judged or not, these bears will come and steal sticks.

No one would be stupid enough to wait for the end of the training to be randomly assigned, in which case, the good soldiers would have been abducted long ago.

Tang Zhen walked over with a smile, the colonel on the far left, the strongest body, and about forty years old, was Cui Bai, the commander of the Special Operations Brigade of the 71st Group Army.

The tall and thin one next to him, who looked shrewd, and the one on the far right, were Dong Gaofeng, commander of the Army Aviation Brigade of the 71st Group Army, and Zheng Lin, commander of the Air Defense Brigade.

It's all famous big bears.

"You old guys, this competition hasn't started yet, so you're looking for someone you like?" Tang Zhen walked over with a smile.

Seeing him coming, the three of them were suddenly a little unhappy.

The artillery brigade is a combat-ready unit, and it has priority to grab human rights, so to speak, in addition to the recruits they have trained themselves, good seedlings from the training center.

Tang Zhen can also take it away.

It's just that every year he is cried poor by others in front of the chief, and Tang Zhen has returned in vain for several years.

It's not good to grab with these old comrades.

Cui Bai, the commander of the special operations brigade, snorted coldly and said unhappily: "Old Tang, don't talk cool there, I won't look for your soldiers."

"I've helped you calculate this year, but it's still in vain, the three of us have discussed it just now, and the three athletes who came over this year will be divided equally."

"It's none of your business."

"Yo yo yo." Tang Zhen smiled, "You've already counted it, I'll tell you Lao Cui, it's really not certain who will win the championship this year, let's talk about it at the end." ”

"You're all booked, did Chief Luo nod?"

"Beautiful, you guys."

Cui Bai is not angry, anyway, every year there are good seedlings that everyone grabs, and the top 30 are all the objects of competition.

In previous years of the artillery brigade, the top 30 could indeed have a large proportion, and a few of them would be cheeky to rub it, and they could rub one by one.

But this year is different.

They had long heard that there were three good seedlings in the training center, and they must give priority to these three.

Tang Zhen didn't bother to deal with them, there was no way, the 71st Army, as the first in the sequence, had a lot of internal competition in peacetime.

In addition, the division transformation brigade has been in full swing in recent years, and even the brigade commanders can't sit still, and they want to grab the seedlings from the recruits.

You can't get around it.

While a few people were chatting, dozens of troop carriers slowly drove in at the entrance of the martial arts arena.

Four companies of recruits from the artillery brigade also arrived.
