When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 338 Don't want to go to school? Knock me to death!

As soon as the car pulled into the repair shop, Xu Ge and his three companions got out and saw Guo Yuanshuai sitting in the courtyard, chatting and drinking tea with a middle-aged man in casual clothes.

"Squad leader! I've missed you so much, hahaha!" Xu Ge shouted.

"You're here? Come, come, let me introduce you."

Guo Yuanshuai smiled and waved, pointing to the square-faced man next to him and introducing him, "Duan Xiaolin, my fellow soldier from the same year, and also a comrade in the same platoon."

Xu Ge, Li Dongshui, and Ao Xiang immediately greeted Duan Xiaolin: "Hello, old squad leader!"

"Hahaha! Good, good!"

Duan Xiaolin seemed very easygoing. "Don't stand there, Xiao Niu. Are there any more chairs? Let's all sit down and chat."

"Yes, Director Duan, I'll go to the dormitory to get them right away!" Niu Sanxian replied respectfully and quickly went to the dormitory to bring out four small stools.

Director Duan?
Xu Ge and the other two looked somewhat puzzled.

Guo Yuanshuai chuckled: "My fellow soldier from the same year isn't some old squad leader. He's the director of the admissions office at the Information Engineering University. If the four of you want to go to military academy, you'll have to get past him first!"

"Hello, Director Duan!"

The three of them quickly greeted each other again.

Duan Xiaolin looked helpless: "Old Guo, are you mocking me again? I finally got a vacation this time, didn't you see I wasn't even wearing my uniform? Goodness, just one word, 'Director Duan,' and it reminds me of the recruitment work I'll be busy with when I get back! I think calling me 'Old Squad Leader' is quite nice..."

"Dream on! You're just a bookworm who's never been a class monitor!"

"Hahaha!"

It seems that Guo Yuanshuai and Duan Xiaolin have a good relationship; they speak to each other without any reservations.

The four of them sat down on the small stools. Xu Ge asked in surprise, "Information Engineering University? Where is this school? Is it also a military academy?"

Duan Xiaolin was also a little surprised: "What, you don't know which school you'll be going to for promotion?"

"do not know!"

Li Dongshui and Ao Xiang both shook their heads. Niu Sanxian explained, "Director Duan, the three of them just returned from a mission not long ago. I guess the notification hasn't come down yet."

"No wonder! But your Hidden Wolf units are special, so it's understandable."

Duan Xiaolin looked at Xu Ge and the other three, "So none of you have heard of the Information Engineering University?"

Xu Ge shook his head: "Never heard of it."

Guo Yuanshuai laughed and scolded, "You idiot, you're supposed to be from Central China, and you don't even know the famous School of Information Engineering!"

At this moment, Ao Xiang spoke up: "I do know this school; it seems to be one of the seven national defense schools in our country."

"Yes!"

As the director of the admissions office, Duan Xiaolin felt obligated to provide some basic information, and said,

"Our school's full name is the Cyberspace Force Information Engineering University, a military-level institution. It is one of the five key comprehensive universities in the entire military, the only national cybersecurity talent training base in the military, and the main training ground for surveying and mapping navigation personnel in the entire military..."

"Alright, alright, didn't you just say you rarely get to take a vacation? How come you're promoting it again?" Guo Yuanshuai said, both amused and exasperated.

"Haha, I'm used to it!"

Duan Xiaolin laughed too, "Old Guo, you don't know, the level of education in our country is improving year by year, and the competition for admissions is fierce every year, especially for schools like ours. Although our school is top-notch, it is not well-known. We definitely need to promote it to students. You see, even many people in our military don't know about it, let alone the local candidates."

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui both looked embarrassed, because they really didn't know.

Guo Yuanshuai waved his hand: "You don't need to introduce them. These four are the ones our class monitor specifically requested to go to your school."

Duan Xiaolin nodded: "I know. Our class monitor mentioned this during dinner tonight, which is why I thought of calling the four of them over to do a home visit."

Guo Yuanshuai lit a cigarette and pointed at Xu Ge and the other three: "Then hurry up, let's have a drink after we're done. Xiao Xing has already gone to Thirty Mile Camp to buy groceries."

"Still drinking? With your low alcohol tolerance, you haven't improved at all since basic training. A little bit of my drink would be enough to take you down!"

"What the hell? I'll make sure you leave this world standing up, or your surname won't be Guo!"

After exchanging a few words, Duan Xiaolin finally got down to business.

It was called a home visit, but in reality, it was just asking each person a few questions, such as their education level, college entrance examination scores, family situation, political affiliation, and so on.

Xu Ge also learned that at this time, the school had already sent people to the local armed forces department to conduct a political review.

Originally, there was supposed to be a home visit to the military unit, but Duan Xiaolin happened to be visiting Zhang Fengxue and Guo Yuanshuai, so he took the opportunity to do home visits for all four of them.

With Guo Yuanshuai and Zhang Fengxue's endorsement, the so-called home visit was really just a formality. Duan Xiaolin asked a few simple questions and then said it was OK.

"Since Director Duan is here today, the four of you can ask him any questions you may have, such as which major is good, or what you should pay attention to when you get to the school," Guo Yuanshuai reminded him.

Xu Ge and the other three could all see that the squad leader was paving the way for them.

Next, Niu Sanxian, Li Dongshui, and Ao Xiang asked questions that concerned them. Duan Xiaolin answered all their questions and gave very pertinent advice.

After a while, Guo Yuanshuai felt something was wrong and looked at Xu Ge: "Ge Bao, why aren't you saying anything?"

Xu Ge glanced at Duan Xiaolin and said in a low voice, "Deputy Squad Leader, I have nothing to ask."

"Just say what you want, Lao Duan isn't an outsider..." Guo Yuanshuai seemed to have thought of something, his eyes widening, "Damn it, you don't actually want to go, do you?"

Upon hearing this, not only Duan Xiaolin, but also the other three looked at Xu Ge with surprise.

Xu Ge: ...

The squad leader really knows me well!

With a sigh to himself, Xu Ge said, "Deputy Squad Leader, Director Duan, to be honest, I'm not really interested in information engineering..."

"What the hell?!"

Snapped!
Guo Yuanshuai jumped up and slapped Xu Ge on the head. "You're still not interested?"

"This is a school that my class monitor personally picked out for you. Others would love to go but can't!"

clap clap!

"I'll make you not want to go! I'll make you not interested!"

Xu Ge dodged while shouting, "Squad leader, don't hit me! Ouch! That hurts!"

Duan Xiaolin quickly stopped Guo Yuanshuai: "Old Guo, don't get excited, don't rush, let's hear why Xiao Xu doesn't want to go!"

"Why listen to his nonsense? What kind of idiot would a kid who hasn't even grown a beard know?"

Guo Yuanshuai pointed at Xu Ge's nose and cursed, "Look at that stupid guy, he doesn't even understand what a university of information engineering is!"

"You bitch, go ask around, which military unit officer gets promoted to this school? People from civilian life can't even get in if they want to! You don't know how lucky you are!"

Xu Ge was taken aback: "What do you mean, deputy squad leader? Can't you get promoted to this school through normal channels?"

"You definitely can't get on!"

Niu Sanxian, standing to the side, was also speechless. "Even without the 'Seven Sons of National Defense' designation, it's still a key national university. How easy is it to get in?"

Xu Ge understood that he and his three companions were likely special cases, but he still didn't really want to go, and said:

"Both Thor and Lao Wang said before that after joining Hidden Wolf, when it comes to promotion, you can actually skip reporting to school and go straight to internship."

"You're really something!" Guo Yuan was incredibly cool, taking off his shoe and throwing it at him.

"That bastard and Lei Zi didn't report for duty when they were promoted, but that's because they had assignments at the time. Didn't they both go for further training later? What do you know about machinery!"

Xu Ge caught the shoe and threw it back.

"Alright, Lao Guo, sit still!"

Duan Xiaolin shoved Guo Yuanshuai into a chair, then looked at Xu Ge and asked, "Xu, can you tell me why you don't want to go to the Information Engineering University?"

"Director Duan, as you just said, your school mainly focuses on cyberspace and information engineering, and I don't want to study that!"

"Oh? What do you want to learn?"

Xu Ge truthfully stated, "I want to learn modern command and foreign languages."

A figure suddenly darted over, and Xu Ge immediately felt a sharp pain in his ear.

"Ouch! I'm sorry, squad leader! Please be gentle!"

"You bastard, get over here and squat down!"

Guo Yuanshuai grabbed Xu Ge by the ear and dragged him to his chair. Xu Ge obediently squatted down.

Duan Xiaolin laughed heartily: "So it turns out Xiao Xu has quite the ambition! He wants to learn modern command, which means he wants to become a commander!"

"What kind of command skills can you learn in school?"

Guo Yuan gave Xu Ge another flick on the forehead, saying irritably,
"If theoretical knowledge were useful, how did our predecessors win back then? Let me tell you, all excellent commanders are forged in real combat!"

Xu Ge: ? ? ?
He suddenly realized that what the squad leader said seemed to make some sense.

Before Xu Ge could answer, Guo Yuanshuai asked again, "Tell me, how good is my squad leader's command skills?"

Xu Ge replied without hesitation: "That's awesome! That's exactly what I want to be like, a brigade commander!"

From the Queshan exercise to the two most recent missions, Zhang Fengxue's command skills have left a very deep impression on Xu Ge. He feels that an excellent commander should be like this.

"Let me tell you straight, his command skills weren't learned in school!"

Guo Yuanshuai said seriously, "Do you know why the class monitor went to so much trouble to send the four of you to the Information Engineering University?"

"Why?" Xu Ge and the other three looked over at the same time.

"What era are we living in? The era of information technology and high technology! Combat is all about information and modernization. You will all be officers in the future. How can you manage if you don't understand these things?"

Guo Yuanshuai patted Xu Ge's head and continued, "Are you suggesting that someone who doesn't understand anything should go up and give orders blindly? Your Hidden Wolf's intelligent combat system is the most advanced in the entire army. If my squad leader and Wang Lai are completely ignorant of this system, can we manage?"

All four of them looked on with a sense of realization.

Xu Ge winced in pain and shouted, "Squad leader, stop hitting me! You're going to knock my brain out! I'll do it, okay?"
