The movement of the vehicles outside was not small, and without waiting for notice, Chen Ming got up from the dormitory and quickly dressed and prepared.

Yesterday's conference did not say where the competition was held, nor did it say what specific subjects it was.

However, it is clearly pointed out that this competition, from the content setting to the structure of the examination room, from the selection of examiners to the referee rules, is all closely related to one principle.

That is, the competition insists on being strict and difficult, and proceeds from actual combat.

Random selection of peripheral personnel, temporary arrangement of martial arts test questions, including the selection of the location of the competition, the way of the competition, and the personnel of the referee team, these are all temporarily selected.

No one will be informed in advance of what they will be competing against.

All written notices and document notices are only a general introduction to the projects that need to be participated.

It's just that there are more than 200 people, and it is impossible to participate in every project, but choose a random selection method.

It can be said that no one can avoid this battle.

It depends on their luck.

If you're lucky, you might be able to draw a subject you're good at, but if you're unlucky, there's nothing to say.

The above meaning is obvious, a strong army first strengthens the general, and the assessment first examines, which can never be bypassed.

As mentioned at yesterday evening's meeting, this contest includes not only traditional physical skill subjects, but also satellite positioning operations with a high degree of informatization.

There are not only individual and single subject competitions, but also group group work competitions, and the continuous operation time is up to 34 hours.

And there is also one of the competitions, which is a plot without any prompts, which is identified by recording, and requires all participating comrades to have skilled integrated command platform operation skills.

What else is to complete the basic theory, remote sensing image mapping, measurement and analysis fusion to generate a situation map, and computer plotting and so on in four hours in a row.

In short, the news that all the participants have gotten so far, that is, this competition is very difficult, and the subjects are also randomly selected.

The purpose is to effectively test and improve the theoretical foundation and business skills of the personnel who came here to participate in the competition.

Chen Ming faced the subjects selected by this competition, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart.

For example, everything is based on audio recordings and remote sensing images, which is tantamount to integrating the previous staff methods into the present unified assessment.

The skills of the new era and the techniques mastered by the previous staff officers are integrated into one.

If you haven't prepared in advance.

No matter how experienced the veteran is, there is a greater possibility of capsizing in this kind of competition.

It was still dark outside, and the light rain was drizzling, and the rows of vehicles were ready to go.

When Chen Ming ran to the water room to wash, he was still thinking about the subjects of this competition, not because he had a big heart, he was still walking around yesterday, and he knew that he was nervous when it was time to take the assessment today.

But that's how it was designed this time.

More than 200 people, randomly grouped, random subjects, there are groups and competitions, there are single competitions, and there are unified all subjects.

This thing is not a 400-meter obstacle run, nor is it a 5-kilometer cross-country run, and Chen Ming is confident that there is no pressure to win against a group of older old men.

It's all about experience and skill.

I don't know if Vice President Lin of the Joint Operations Academy, as the person who mainly organizes the competition this time, will be able to meet him today.

"Phew!"

Chen Ming quickly spit out the toothbrushing water in his mouth, and stuffed all the cups, towels, basins, and other toiletries together.

As I said at the meeting last night, this competition is round-the-clock, saying that it is three days, and who knows if there will be a chance to come back halfway.

He regretted that he had taken his suitcase with him before going out, although this thing was beautiful and enough, but it was inconvenient to go out urgently.

Fortunately, there was a prepared backpack in the dormitory, Chen Ming stuffed these things into it, put it on his back, pushed open the dormitory door, and came outside to prepare for gathering.

I thought he was fast enough.

Good guy, after coming to the corridor, Chen Ming found that the corridor on the first floor was already standing in the dark, including Liu Zhiyang next door, who was also carrying a backpack and was ready to participate in the competition.

"What's the situation?" Chen Ming walked a few steps quickly and came to Liu Zhiyang to ask.

He only heard the movement of the convoy outside, and did not hear the whistle of the assembly.

"I don't know, wait, who knows which leaders will go together in this competition, don't worry if you don't say gathering."

"It's useless to be anxious." Chen Ming shrugged his shoulders with his backpack on his back, knowing that this would not go, and yawned with his mouth open.

I woke up just now because I was awakened by the movement, and I thought the race was about to start.

Now that I understand the situation and know that the time has not come, my spirit is no longer tense, and after I relax suddenly, I really feel a little sleepy.

Hear the movement here.

Liu Zhiyang muttered for a while, and the officers waiting in the entire corridor had their brows twisted into the word "Chuan", and dozens of people stood in the narrow corridor, all with solemn faces.

Dare to love this person is still tired of watching?

Although he had been in contact with Chen Ming before, he didn't have much friendship in private, and it was all about his work.

The impression of Chen Ming is young and promising, acting steadily, doing things vigorously and resolutely, and he can drive the entire firepower to be in order at a young age, and he is a rare general, but after getting along for two days this time, he always feels that it is not right.

Maybe it's because I'm too young.

"Chen, are you so sure about this competition? I don't think you care. Liu Zhiyang asked in a low voice, anyway, he was waiting here.

I'm going to talk to Chen Ming.

"Grasp? How so? Chen Ming was a little puzzled, he didn't even know which group he was assigned to now, and he was sure where he came from.

"Didn't you listen to what the head of the combat bureau said about the assessment subjects yesterday? There are many things that we don't usually have contact with in the army, so aren't you worried? ”

"What's the use of worrying." Knowing what Liu Zhiyang was asking, Chen Ming shook his head.

"This competition has been prepared for so long, and the supervision team and the referee team have all been temporarily set up, not so that the officers participating in this competition will not have more time to find relationships and get some news in advance."

"The above arrangement is also to test everyone's ability, the purpose is so obvious, just test the ability, what do I have to worry about."

Chen Ming said it lightly, in fact, it is useless to talk about worrying at this time.

In the face of such a "candid" response, Liu Zhiyang had nothing to say.

In fact, whispers like the one between the two of them can be seen everywhere in the hallway.

No matter what position you are in, how old you are, and in the face of sudden assessment competitions, it is impossible to be too calm.

Chatting with and without a partner can always relieve this oppressive atmosphere.

It was still raining outside, and the rows of military vehicles had long been ready to go, but the order to set off had never been given.

They couldn't go back to the dormitory and wait, for fear of missing some important announcements.

What's more, there is a certain reason why there are so many participants on the scene who are worried, and in the past, exercises and drills also paid attention to the integration of situations.

But that kind of scale, intelligence, and operations are all done by multiple staff officers.

Nowadays, with the increasing development of information technology and the simplicity of operation, these tasks have become completed by one person, and the requirements for the overall quality of staff officers have indeed been greatly improved.

But it was an exercise, there were physical objects to refer to, and there was a battle situation to analyze, and these veterans who had been in a hundred battles were not worried.

Chief of Staff, who can not fight.

It's just that this time it's not a war, it's a competition, it's a competition in which the chiefs of staff of the whole army at the brigade level participate, and who knows what subjects will be drawn.

For example, the ruler measurement, compass pen, pen calculation, and other traditional measurement operations on the graph that were often used in the past have been almost lost.

All of them are operated by computer.

Who will be fine in the battle now, lying on the table with a map, drawing around.

After a long time, the chiefs of staff at all levels have become familiar with this method, and they really give them a combination of local and foreign, and they have to pick up traditional things and draw them on the computer.

It was much more difficult to get in touch with computers for the first time than in the past, when informatization was not so developed.

After all, the person who asked the question was the General Staff Department of the Military Department, and those people had experienced two eras of staff work, and the subjects would be very targeted.

Just when everyone in the corridor was anxiously waiting.

The shrill emergency assembly whistle blew outside the dormitory building, and as people of their level, many people have not experienced this kind of atmosphere for a long time.

"Beep-beep!!"

"All the comrades who participated in the competition, stood in line in the hall on the first floor, prepared to board the train, and went to the competition site."

"Please note that there are raincoats hanging on the walls of each dormitory, please wear them yourself, and you are not allowed to bring mobile phones, photography, or any other electronic devices during the competition."

"Start the assembly."

The shrill whistle, mixed with the coolness of a rainy night, brought the whole building into action.

Even Chen Ming himself felt a little distant when he heard this voice, and many times, it was he who came to arrange the instructions for emergency assembly.

It's been a long time since I moved out of the fire office dormitory in the past six months.

But it doesn't matter.

The youth, coupled with the instinct of long-term exercise, still made him rush back to the dormitory quickly, grabbed the mechanical watch in his backpack and buckled it on his wrist.

Take off the raincoat hanging on the wall and start rushing outward.

Don't look at the level of the people participating in the competition this time, and the age is not young, but when they take action, they really show the courage of veterans.

Bang bang bang

The lights in the middle hall on the first floor were turned on, and the blinding light shone on the assembled personnel.

No matter how many people were worried and how many people were unsure in their hearts when they were in the dark corridor just now, now under the light, the calm in these eyes, the rising belief in victory, and the burning fighting spirit are enough to exude vividly through the rainy night.

This is the military.

Competition is a battle on the field.

No matter how worried you are before the game, how worried you are, once it really comes.

There's nothing to say, just do it.

Pedal Pedal Tread.

The queue in the hall on the first floor had just ended, and Wang Haisheng, the head of the Operations Bureau of the Army Staff Department of the Military Department, was wearing a raincoat and came in from outside.

His gaze swept over all the assembled crowd and nodded slightly.

"Hello comrades, I know that the vast majority of the comrades who participated in the competition this time are holding important positions in the army."

"The level is also very high, but this time the competition is directly selected by the military department, and eligible comrades, no matter what other reasons you have, must come to participate in the competition."

"You should have been informed of this rule before you set off, and I hope that all comrades in the future will be able to cooperate well with the competition."

"There will be 11 subjects in the future, and the organizational form, assessment content, etc. will be different from the past."

"Every subject can be said to be an uphill battle."

"All comrades are ready, next our first 3-kilometer cross-country, in order to ensure fairness and justice, the discipline inspection inspector will strictly supervise the work of the recorder."

"We will also observe the situation of the comrades during the race, and use the timing method of the marathon to assess the time of the marathon, and systematically count the time of the gun and the time of the static run."

"This competition is to achieve zero cheating, and it is strongly supported by a third-party monitoring system."

"Each set of test papers is printed, transported and distributed, as well as receiving, marking, ranking, and the discipline inspection and supervision personnel track the whole process."

"Before each assessment, the discipline inspection and supervision team checks and reviews the examination room, assessment, and examiner information of candidates in advance."

"Including the design assessment area at the back, the examiner, the candidate and the discipline inspection and supervision personnel must go forward to pick up the target together in order to finally record the results."

Accompanied by one instruction after another.

Chen Ming stood in the crowd and grinned, and the words he said earlier were estimated to be said to everyone present except for him.

The latter ones are for the whole person.

If it weren't for these third-party monitoring teams to keep an eye on it, it would have been impossible for the game to be free of cheating.

After all, there are more than 200 people.

This can really be said to be fair and just, stuffed out of real talent and real learning,

Even cross-country running is done, and cross-country running is a bit of a bully for this level of competition.

In fact, Chen Ming suspects that someone may have interfered with the rules of the competition, otherwise the car outside would have come a long time ago, is this not clear about pulling people?

As a result, the car arrived, and there was no movement for a long time, and finally there was movement and a cross-country run.

Chen Ming estimated that there was a high probability that the people above had deliberately changed, after all, the competition was a job of gritting his teeth and persisting throughout the whole process, and he didn't care about adding more cross-country running.

Three kilometers. It's nothing.

After Wang Haisheng introduced the rules of this competition, he cleared his throat and continued: "Okay comrades, wait a minute, let's group up. ”

"After dividing the group, because it is raining outside today, it is necessary to warm up in advance and check the equipment."

"Galoshes, raincoats, these things all comrades must wear."

"Of course, wearing these must have made this competition more difficult, but the same difficulty is the same for every group."

"Come, first group." Wang Haisheng took out a roster and began to roll call.

Chen Ming looked at the roster in the other party's hand and was speechless.

This group is really random, and the booklet he is holding in his hand is the booklet he signed at the meeting last night.

However, he did not read them in order, but according to the vertical names, in groups of twenty.

"Okay, the first group of personnel, check the equipment, set off, and there are personnel from the monitoring team outside to lead the team to board the car."

"Go ahead and roll call. Group II. Let's go. ”

"Group 6, let's go."

"Group 7, let's go."

Because the roster was read vertically, although Chen Ming went late, the group was divided quite high, and he was divided into seven groups.

With the issuance of this order, all the personnel of the seven groups stepped into the rainy night, and it was only then that it entered winter, and the weather in Shimen was not as comfortable as in Fuzhou.

As soon as he came out of the hall, Chen Ming was blown by the cool breeze and felt goosebumps all over his body.

I thought I was going to run when I came out, but Chen Ming found that he was thinking too much, the first item was cross-country running, but not now.

He followed the personnel of the seven groups to board the military vehicle one after another, and the vehicle started and roared away from the academy.

He guessed this correctly, the position of the competition was really not in the academy.

Chen Ming didn't know any of the people sitting in front of him, the position of the small military vehicle itself was not spacious, and the co-pilot in the front row also sat a person from the monitoring group.

It also leads to the fact that the people who have just been grouped can't be introduced by no one around and discuss the next competition with each other.

I can only sit in the car honestly and wait.

At first, when I first left the college, the road was in good condition, but after running for half an hour, the road became more and more deviant.

Chen Ming was really glad that he was doing this kind of small military vehicle this time, and it was still an off-road type, no matter how muddy the road was, it couldn't stop the vehicle.

If you ride in one of those large trucks that are specifically used to transport troops, you will suffer an old sin.

No one spoke, and no one discussed where the competition was going.

It was about 5:50 a.m.

The convoy finally came to a halt in a relatively flat area.

Opening the car door, Chen Ming quickly observed the surrounding environment, and a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

It depends on the situation, this place has been arranged by the academy for a long time.

Not far from where they were, more than a dozen large red tents had been set up, and there were power trucks and machines for network signals next to the tents.

A group of staff sat under the tent, crackling on the keyboard, the competition hadn't even started, and they didn't know what they were busy doing.

In addition to these staff, the most around were those discipline inspection and supervision personnel wearing red armbands on their left arms, and they took a cursory look.

The number of participants far exceeded the number of participants.

Inside the tent and everywhere around, there were the figures of the discipline inspection inspectors shaking, if you didn't know in advance that this was a place for competition.

Chen Ming almost thought that he had arrived at the secret base.

Because these soldiers with red armbands, except for not carrying guns, the defense level is quite tight.

The total number of people is more than that of an infantry battalion.

It seems that the meeting just now repeatedly emphasized that this competition will be fair and just, and it is really not just talking.

Obviously, a lot of effort has been put into it.

The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, but it still has no tendency to abate.

The inspector who got down from the co-pilot stretched out his hand and pointed to the national flag in the distance and reminded: "All those who come after the group must assemble over there."

"The competition will officially begin after the oath."

"Oath?" Chen Ming looked up, and sure enough, he saw that the first few groups had arrived.

All the personnel stood in unison under the national flag, as if waiting.

This made Chen Ming sigh for a while, it is worthy of the competition of the military department, and the process is really strict.

Seven groups set off, Chen Ming followed behind, stepped on the ground with one foot, mud stained the soles of his shoes, and couldn't shake them off.

This made Chen Ming speechless for a while, I am afraid that this is their competition area for the next three days.

It's not good.
