On the training ground, more than 400 soldiers dressed in recruit training uniforms and armed with Type 95-1 automatic rifles lined up in a neat square.

All the soldiers in the queue were nervous, excited, apprehensive, and also had high fighting spirits, because this assessment was a company assessment, and after today, it would mean that they would end their three-month recruitment period and become soldiers in the real sense.

As a combat-ready brigade and an ace unit, there is often a saying in the Eastern Theater that recruits in the entire military region are the most reluctant to come.

This is because at this time, the training center of the military region is still conducting the training of recruits step by step, and the soldiers of the same period in it are still calmly enjoying the rights of recruits, while the artillery brigade has already ushered in the assessment of the next company, and the winners and losers are determined by their results, and they are striving for the future by their performance.

Tang Zhen came to the queue from the stage, glanced around, and said with relief: "Comrades, congratulations on overcoming many difficulties, constantly breaking through the limits, and finally standing here."

"You are all good men in the army, today is the day of the assessment of our 71st Artillery Brigade, after today, you will enter each company and truly become a member of the artillery brigade."

"Comrades, knowing that our artillery brigade is called an ace unit, what do we rely on? What is our confidence? ”

"Reporting, it's our new weapon."

A recruit in the queue shouted loudly, but Tang Zhen didn't answer, smiling and shaking his head.

"Report, we have a lot of people, we have eight battalions."

"Report, we train hard, we put in a lot of effort."

"Report, we have strong combat effectiveness and rocket artillery."

"Report."

It seems that the brigade commander is easier to speak, and the soldiers in the queue speak more and more, almost saying all the reasons they can.

But Tang Zhen still shook his head and did not respond.

Chen Ming stood in the queue and thought for a moment, what is the reliance of the ace troops, this question is actually very easy to answer, and it is also easy to understand, because the principle of the ace troops and the school's sharp knife class is the same.

The head teacher of the sharp knife class is arrogant, where is his pride? Are there excellent students? Obviously not, it is his own ability to make the otherwise excellent students better.

This is the way people do it, and it's different.

The same is true for the troops, but the influence is greater, Chen Ming thought for a moment and shouted loudly: "Report, the artillery brigade is a trump card unit, and the confidence of the superiors comes from the loyalty of the subordinates, the combat effectiveness of daring to fight and kill, and the confidence of the subordinates comes from the support of the superiors, full support."

"The confidence of the artillery brigade is the atmosphere of the entire unit, and our artillery god of war has an iron fist, defending the country and defending the border, twisting up and down into a rope, just like a fist, and the iron fist crosses the border, and there is no reason why it is not powerful."

The words fell, and the audience fell silent.

Chen Ming's response caused most of the soldiers in the team to be stunned.

"Damn, who's that? Made, this is the old professor coming to be a soldier, even if I write down so many words and let me read them, I guess I will be stumbled. ”

"Damn, who else can it be, isn't that Chen Ming, the one who swept the arena in the evaluation, I knew that this time the four teams were assessed together, and he would definitely jump out again."

"Wo said, take it, this is a ruthless person who can get third-class merit in the recruit evaluation, I always thought that he was very good at training, Nima, and his mouth is so good."

"Not necessarily, in my case, I can say it."

There was a commotion in the team, but these noises soon disappeared under the knife-like gaze of their respective squad leaders.

When Tang Zhen heard this, he looked at Chen Ming with a smile, and his eyes were full of approval: "Yes, the reason why the ace troops have always been called trump cards is that the confidence of the superiors of the troops does come from the loyalty of the subordinates, and the confidence of the subordinates comes from the unreserved trust of the superiors."

"But there is still one thing that has not been said, the power of the ace unit comes from the subordinate, and this subordinate does not mean a certain company, not a specific squad, but everyone in our artillery brigade."

"Our trump card is not the troops, but the trump card troops, all of us are trump cards, including you, the iron fist of the artillery brigade god of war, is our slogan."

"But it's also the unity of all of us, when all the soldiers clench their fists and twist into a rope, then, we are the undefeated ace army, understand?"

"Understand !!"

On the training ground, all the soldiers shouted in response, and everyone was surrounded by a warm feeling, which is called recognition.

The brigade commander did not say what the assessment results would be or what units would be assigned, and he did not say that today is a new beginning.

Instead, it cuts in with the confidence of the ace troops, so that everyone feels belonging and identity, which is cohesion.

In just a few words, the diaphragm of the four brigades of recruits seems to have disappeared, but it has brought the highest fighting spirit, not only fighting for the assessment, but also fighting for the trump card and the responsibility on their shoulders.

Even Chai Shuyao, who was standing on the side, looked at Chen Ming with brilliant eyes, she used to hear Chen Ming talk about loyalty and the soul of the army, and she felt too far away.

A recruit can understand what loyalty is, at that time he didn't know how to hold a gun, he didn't even take an oath under the national flag, what kind of military soul to talk about.

But she understood now.

This is perhaps the reason why the artillery brigade can be famous for the entire army group, the entire theater of operations.

Tang Zhenren ended, and the recruit assessment officially began.

The assessment subjects and the evaluation subjects are basically the same, and the teams are divided into groups.

In the first game, Chen Ming shocked the audience with a time of 17 minutes and 56 seconds for a cross-country run of 5 kilometers with a weight of 20 kilograms, leaving the other soldiers who participated in the assessment far behind 800 meters away.

Not to mention the people who participated, even Zhao Lifei and the others who were watching from a distance were all straight to the teeth, and the chief of staff Peng Qinglin was even more smiling.

Soldiers, no matter how powerful the scientific and technological weapons are, no matter how advanced they are, physical fitness is still a sharp weapon on the battlefield, if physical fitness is not good, you will not be able to drive a tank for long, and you will not be able to survive.

Physical fitness is the key to surviving on the battlefield, as long as you are stronger than others in this aspect, then you have more chances and luck to survive.

At the beginning of the first game alone, Chen Ming almost made the recruits from the four brigades who participated in the assessment desperate.

The second team is slightly better, after all, they all know Chen Ming's ability, but they have never seen him so fierce.

The second game was still a physical competition, wearing a gas mask, carrying weights for three kilometers off-road, Chen Ming rode the dust, leaving others far behind.

If Chen Ming is the first to complete these subjects, then the latter is even more incomparable, push-ups, parallel bar arm flexion and extension, pull-ups, squats, sit-ups and other subjects, he can always persist until the end.

Especially pull-ups, when the evaluation is made, he can only do more than forty, and the assessment directly breaks through sixty, if it is not for the time limit of the assessment, Zhao Lifei doubts that he can break the record left by the previous artillery division.

After several consecutive comparisons, all the recruits went from shock at the beginning, to despair later, and then to numbness now, almost no one would doubt whether Chen Ming could get the first result in the assessment this time.

"Damn, it doesn't make sense, I watch a military TV series, that He Chenguang still has an opponent, Wang Yanbing can compete with him, who of us can compete with Chen Ming?"

"Fight for a hammer, we have a large group of top physical fitness, we don't even have a chance to fight with him, I didn't wait for the strength here, I'm almost at the end over there, how can I compare?"

"Hey, livestock, I finally know what is going on with his third-class merit, at that time, there were many people in the recruit training center, and there were many people in the evaluation, plus we have been staring at the soldiers in the training center, and we didn't pay attention to how powerful Chen Ming is, now I look at it, this can't be compared at all."

Chen Ming's performance was being discussed everywhere on the field.

In the distant stands, Tang Zhen even stroked his palms and laughed, glanced at Chief of Staff Peng Qinglin and said with a smile: "How about Old Peng, this soldier I mentioned to you is not bad, right?"

"That's good." Peng Qinglin smiled bitterly, he really didn't expect such a fierce man to come to the artillery brigade this year.

But the recruits' performance is too outstanding, not necessarily a good thing, at least not now, Peng Qinglin looked at the few battalion commanders who had to come to watch the assessment in the distance, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

At this time, more than half of the battalion commanders had already run to the 400-meter field to look.

There is no way, the artillery is really tired, and because of the special establishment, the number of people in each battalion is not large, not as good as the six or seven hundred people in the combined battalion, and the reinforcement can be thousands of people.

One or two hundred people in a battalion on their side belongs to the normal number, and more than three hundred people are an additional battalion, which is a small number, resulting in every recruit who has passed in the past will be paid special attention.

Who doesn't want a physical champion? But you can't divide it alone.

Tang Zhen is the brigade commander, and he is the boss in the distribution and designation of training regulations, and these are all handed over to Peng Qinglin to have a headache for himself.

He can now think that as long as the assessment is over today and the distribution order is not down, his staff will inevitably be trampled by these battalion commanders.

Tang Zhenzheng looked energetic, turned his head to see Peng Qinglin's sad face, and directly waved his hand and said: "You don't have to worry about the distribution problem, Chen Ming, I have my own arrangements, by the way, the platoon commander of the second brigade this time is called Jiang Peng."

"It's the one who graduated from the National Defense Science and Technology Academy, you arrange the arrangement, after the assessment, you should go to the army to participate in training, and you will find an opportunity to inform him."

"Pack your things and go in the afternoon, don't forget."

"Jiang Peng? Well, I have the impression that where are you going to place him when he comes back from training? Peng Qinglin asked casually.

When you come back from training in a military region, you can generally be promoted from lieutenant to captain, and your rank will be promoted, and your position will definitely change, and if you are a platoon commander again, it will not be suitable.

"We'll talk about that then." Tang Zhen waved his hand.

Eyes turn back to the arena.

At this time, the assessment subject has been carried out to the 400-meter obstacle run, and a large group of groups are working hard in front.

Chen Ming stood in the waiting area and stared at the venue, this time in the group, it was Wang Shuaibing and his group.

Looking at Chen Ming's solemn appearance, Wang Shuaibing's face suddenly became bitter: "Brother Chen, you don't have to take care of me later, you don't have to be merciful."

"Although we are in a group, I will never hold you back because of my results."

Wang Shuaibing said righteous words, but Chen Ming just nodded with a smile and replied: "Okay."

Just get ready to sprint again.

The waiting recruits around him all craned their necks to this side, and even the battalion commanders in the crowd ran over and looked at him with interest.

As for whether it is pure appreciation, it is unknown.
