Chapter 98 Flying over the Grass!

A surprise training exercise?

Xu Ge was quite surprised: "Dr. Lin, how did you know?"

“Our hospital has received a notice to form a medical support team, and I am one of its members.”

Lin Wan instructed, "Don't tell anyone about this, just keep it to yourself!"

“I understand. Do you know the specific time of the training exercise?” Xu Ge asked again.

Lin Wan: "The leader didn't say. Since it's a surprise, the time must have been decided at the last minute. But I will definitely receive the notification in advance. I will send you a message when the time comes."

"Thank you, Dr. Lin!"

"Come on, call me 'sister' again, let me hear it?"

"I'm going to take a shower!" Xu Ge hung up the phone immediately.

Kaiyoumu, his head covered in foam, peeked over from next door: "What did Dr. Lin say? Are we going to do a surprise training exercise?"

"They said someone from the military came down to organize it, but we don't know the exact time."

Xu Ge reminded them, "Don't tell anyone about this, let's just keep it to ourselves!"

Kaiyu gave a thumbs up: "It's better to date a female officer, Adashi, keep it up!"

Xu Ge was speechless: "Squad leader, there really is nothing between me and Dr. Lin. Don't you think about it? She's a major, and I'm just a recruit. How could she possibly be with me..."

"So what if she's a major? She's just an old woman!"

Li Dongshui came over naked. "You're not even nineteen yet, you don't know who's taking advantage of whom!"

Kaiyoumu laughed: "What Ah Shui said is absolutely right!"

Xu Ge: ...

In the evening, Du Hu went upstairs to hold a company meeting, while the new recruits stayed in their dormitories to make their own arrangements.

After Xu Ge finished his phone call home, he sat there playing with the little Si dog.

After a week, Baihu has grown up again. He is now a half-grown dog and can no longer fit in my pocket. He is also noticeably stronger.

Before, it needed to be carried to bed, but now it can jump up easily. The cardboard box that we used to use as its doghouse is no longer big enough for it, so every night it randomly chooses someone to sleep on the lower bunk.

clap clap clap!
Xu Ge could even feel the tail whipping against his calf, causing a slight pain!
Several new recruits gathered around Li Dongshui to watch him adjust his scope, while Kaiyoumu stood by the back window smoking.

"Squad leader, what's your fastest time climbing tactical terrain?" Xu Ge asked.

Kaiyu thought for a moment: "The best time I ever got in a test while in formal attire was 13.7 seconds."

What level is this score?

"Top ten in the whole group."

"Squad leader, if I surpass this score, wouldn't I also be considered one of the top students in the regiment?" Xu Ge asked subconsciously.

"Let's climb in for 20 seconds first."

Kaiyumu threw away his cigarette butt and turned around. "If you can really surpass me, with your current condition, you can participate in the team's Warrior Competition after a few more months of training!"

Zhou Meng, who was eating a steamed bun he had brought back from the canteen, looked up when he heard this and asked, "Deputy Squad Leader, I heard the instructor say last time that there was another warrior, wasn't there?"

"Yes."

"Hehe, when do you usually choose this? My name has the character '猛' (měng, meaning fierce) in it, so I'd like to become a '猛士当当' (měngshì dāngdāng, meaning fierce warrior)."

Kaiyu looked at Zhou Meng with a strange expression: "Wouldn't it be better to be a machine gunner?"

Zhou Meng didn't understand the meaning behind Kaiyoumu's words and said seriously, "I think 'Warrior' sounds more imposing!"

Kaiyoumu: "The brigade has no more than 50 spots for Warriors each year. Only those who have obtained the title of Warrior are eligible to participate in the Warrior Competition. And each regiment has no more than 100 spots for Warriors each year."

Furthermore, this is a brigade-wide competition, meaning Sirius's group can also participate. Do you think their chances are high?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Meng began to lower his head and count on his fingers how many people were in a regiment and what the probability of obtaining the title of "Hero" was.

Xu Ge suddenly remembered something: "Deputy squad leader, have you ever received a title?"

Kaiyumu shook his head: "No!"

"No way, with your skills you can't even get the Warrior title?" Xu Ge was taken aback. "Is our Wolf Brigade really that bad?"

“Last year during the Warriors competition, I missed the opportunity because I went to participate in the Sirius selection.”

Kaiyu explained, "Getting the title of Warrior is probably possible, but I definitely can't get the title of Mighty Warrior, there are too many beasts!"

"Animals?"

Upon hearing Kaiyoumu use this word to describe those veterans, Xu Ge instantly envisioned a scene in his mind.

He had heard Luo Shan say before that some of the tough guys in the brigade could run so fast that they could exhaust a cow to death on the plateau!

"Why, you have an idea too?"

"Deputy squad leader, who doesn't want honor?"

"Then you need to work on your physical fitness!" Kaiyoumu patted Xu Ge on the shoulder. "Physical fitness is the foundation of everything!"

. . .

. . .

During roll call that evening, Xu Ge and his two companions, as recipients of the Outstanding Shooter Medal for New Recruits, were indeed called up by Liu Guoping to give a speech.

When Liu Guoping learned that Xu Ge had actually won first place in this training camp, he was as happy as a child.

"Hahaha! What do you think? I knew Xu Ge was a good prospect the moment he arrived!"

"His shooting performance in the last assessment was already very good, but it didn't count because of an accident. See? He turned around and got first place in the training camp!"

"What do you call this? You call it gold that always shines!"

Xu Ge blushed with pride at the praise: "It's all thanks to the effective leadership of the company commander and platoon leader, and the strict demands of my squad leader, that I've achieved such great results!"

Liu Guoping looked pleased and said to the audience, "Look at him, how humble! You should all learn from him..."

Xu Ge: ...

The company commander is really overpraising me!

After Xu Ge and the other two finished their acceptance speeches, Liu Guoping, in a showy manner, had the three of them take out their medals and put them on. He then called the communications officer to borrow a camera from the instructor, took out his own phone and handed it to Luo Shan. They snapped a bunch of photos and videos, clearly planning to post them on WeChat Moments before going to bed that night.

As lights were about to go out, a strong wind picked up in the camp, and the temperature plummeted. Xu Ge had already gone to bed early.

I haven't had a single good night's sleep during these seven days of intensive training. I couldn't even have my usual bedtime chat with Lin Wan. I just fell into a deep sleep with my head on Xiao Siquan's tail.

The next morning, as soon as the new recruits got out of bed, they were all shivering from the cold; it seemed the temperature had really dropped.

I opened the window, and the sky was just beginning to lighten. Snowflakes mixed with small ice pellets were drifting in the wind.

"Squad leader, it's snowing, do we still have to do morning exercises?" Li Dongshui dawdled, reluctant to get out of bed.

Du Hu bent down to put on his shoes, ignored him, and went straight out the door.

"You wish! If morning exercises aren't canceled because of the whistle, then they'll proceed as scheduled!" Kaiyoumu jumped out of bed. "Everyone, get together right now!"

The new recruits quickly got dressed and got out of bed.

As soon as he stepped outside, the cold wind rushed into his neck, making a creaking sound. He heard a sound under his feet and looked down to see a thin layer of crushed ice on the ground.

After assembling and forming up, each platoon conducted a five-kilometer training run as usual.

Xu Ge felt his exposed hands were freezing as he ran with the group. After running back and forth, his body warmed up considerably, but his hands were numb from the cold.

"Hiss~~~ It's so cold! Are we still going to have to do tactical training in this weather?" Li Dongshui shivered from the cold after returning to the dormitory.

Du Hu, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, said while folding the blanket, "We'll be going to our unit in a little over a week. There are still several subjects we haven't taken the exams for, so we'll definitely have to keep training unless the snow is really too heavy."

Li Dongshui lay face down on the blanket, hands clasped together: "I'm willing to give up ten years of Xu Ge's life..."

"Woof!"

Xu Ge threw the little dog onto Li Dongshui's neck: "White Tiger, bite him to death!"

The little dog immediately opened its mouth wide and circled around Li Dongshui, barking and making a biting motion.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! I haven't finished making my wish yet!"

"Aww!"

"Go down!"

"Aww!"

"Labour and Capital Shu Daoshan!"

"Waaah..."

. . .

. . .

After breakfast, the weather did not turn out as Li Dongshui had hoped; it was still snowing lightly.

Beep!
"Each company, organize your own tactical training!" The duty officer's voice sounded so hateful to the new recruits.

After leading the group to the training ground, Luo Shan looked at them and said, "Why are you all hunched over? Are you cold? Run three kilometers to warm up!"

New recruits: !!!

To be fair, everyone did feel warm after running.

"Are you all warmed up yet? Get up!"

At Luo Shan's command, the new recruits each received their own replica guns and followed their squad leaders to their respective training positions.

Xu Ge stood in the line, feeling the cold wind stinging his right hand as he gripped the gun.

"Standing still in this weather is colder than training!" Du Hu said with a laugh. "Anyone who doesn't want to train, go stand guard in the wind with your gun. Anyone want to skip training?"

"no!"

"Attention, all personnel! Form tactical formation, spread out!"

Hurala!
The recruits immediately spread out and crouched low, with their left foot forward and their right hand holding their guns behind them.

"Lie down!"

Bang!Bang!Bang!
Everyone gritted their teeth and smashed onto the sandy ground mixed with ice and snow.

"Target, cover 50 meters ahead, crawl low and advance!"

Whoohoo!
Xu Ge exhaled white breath, his limbs flexing and extending rapidly as he crawled forward, his training uniform instantly soaked with mud and water.

"Woof! Woof!"

The little dog excitedly bounced back and forth in front of Xu Ge, seemingly cheering him on.

Du Hu's shouts rang out from behind.

"Xu Ge is doing great, he's far ahead!"

"Everyone else, follow!"

"What's wrong with the squad leader today? Why is he lagging behind?"

Kaiyoumu looked up and exclaimed, "Holy crap, how come Xu Ge is so fast today?"

At this moment, Xu Ge had widened the distance to him by almost two meters.

Upon hearing Kaiyoumu's words, Du Hu also sensed something was wrong. After observing carefully for a while, he finally confirmed that it wasn't Kaiyoumu who was slow, but rather Xu Ge who had suddenly become faster!
To verify his guess, Du Hu waited until everyone had climbed to the destination and immediately organized a 35-meter tactical standard time test.

This time, Xu Ge was in first place.

"Ready! Target, proceed past the obstacles ahead, reach the firing position, and fire!"

"start!"

drop!
Du Hu pressed the stopwatch.

Xu Ge slid down and darted under the barbed wire fence. He immediately put away his gun, bent his knees, and crawled quickly.

With just one glance, Du Hu could tell that Xu Ge's movement frequency was significantly faster than before, and it was very standard. The first half of the low crawl was a true gliding motion close to the ground, and there was even nearly ten centimeters of margin for error on his back!

Halfway up, the height of the barbed wire fence increased from 40 centimeters to 60 centimeters, at which point you can change your forward movement.

With a push of his left hand, Xu Ge turned sideways and kicked off the ground with both legs. Amidst the flying ice, snow, and mud, he darted forward as quickly as a frog gliding across the water.

Du Hu was stunned, and everyone else looked surprised as well.

"Holy crap! It's flying over grass!" Kaiyuki exclaimed, his mouth agape.
