Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

As Zhang Anbang strode to the front of the line and stood still, Fan Anzhi, who had finished arranging the ranks, jogged out of the line and saluted, saying, "Comrade Commander, the selection participants have assembled. Please give instructions."

Zhang Anbang returned the greeting, "At ease."

"Yes."

"Everyone, attention! Three minutes to change into your training uniforms, then board the vehicle immediately!"

"Yes."

The more than one hundred people were completely confused. Weren't they supposed to be here for a physical examination? They could have just gone in their regular clothes. Why were they being asked to change into their training uniforms so early in the morning?

No wonder they made them bring backpacks; we're on the playground, not in the dorms.

However, as soldiers, obeying orders is their duty.

Although they were very puzzled, they didn't slow down at all. Right there on the playground, they took off their clothes, changed clothes, packed their backpacks, and quickly boarded the bus.

They were quite comfortable in the truck today, a 6x6 Dongfeng EQ2102 military truck with two rows of standard long benches, capable of carrying 18-22 people.

Of course, that's just a standard quota. When they usually travel by vehicle, especially for short-distance group troop transport, they are basically overcrowded, meaning they are overloaded.

Of course, no one will come to investigate, and the police won't bother.

Standard passenger capacity is only used for long-distance transport, in extremely hot or cold weather, when carrying heavy equipment, backpacks, weapons and ammunition, or during formal military parades and ceremonial transport.

Twenty minutes later, seven military trucks arrived at their destination, the 702nd Regiment's field training ground. The soldiers who jumped off the trucks immediately spotted several semi-open tents covered with camouflage netting opposite them.

Boxes of individual soldier rations were laid out on the table.

Colonel, lieutenant colonel, major—all the officers stood in front of the table.

After getting off the bus, without any instructions, Fan Anzhi stepped forward and began to organize the ranks, "Straighten your uniforms, stand at attention."

Yuan Lang looked at the selection personnel who were lining up and gestured to Wang Qingrui to invite them to join him.

Wang Qingrui shook his head with a pained expression, then turned and waved to the front. Yuan Lang understood and strode towards the group.

Gao Cheng, dressed in the hunting camouflage exclusive to the division's reconnaissance battalion, stood to the side with a displeased expression. Just a quick glance revealed that among the group of over a hundred people, he spotted more than twenty soldiers from the old Seventh Company.

It can be said that almost all the soldiers of the Steel Seventh Company of the T Division came. These are his precious darlings, his beloved children, who are currently participating in the selection process for other units.

It was that same old A-team that crippled his Seventh Company and poached his deputy company commander.

Gao Cheng turned his head and glanced at his deputy company commander, who was following behind Wang Qingrui with a grin. He couldn't help but curse inwardly, "I've been tricked by this bastard."

He even said that as long as it was Wu Liuyi, all the soldiers of the Steel Seventh Company in the T Division came, even that cadet soldier Ma Xiaoshuai came.

Gao Cheng was conflicted. To be honest, he hoped that the soldiers of the old Seventh Company would have a better future, but secretly, he was reluctant to let them go.

The only thing that comforted him was that Shi Jin, the squad leader who was still in the 702nd Regiment's training team, hadn't come to participate. If Shi Jin had also been taken away, Gao Cheng would have been furious.

Even if they can't beat him, they still have to give Zhang Anbang a beating.

Soon, Yuan Lang's words put Gao Cheng at ease.

As the team was assembled, Yuan Lang walked to the front of the line. Fan Anzhi turned around, jogged a few steps, and saluted Yuan Lang. "Comrade Commander, all participants in the selection process have assembled. Please give instructions."

Yuan Lang suppressed a smile and returned the greeting, saying, "At ease."

"Yes," Fan Anzhi saluted and turned around, then gave the order and entered the queue.

Yuan Lang stepped forward, looking at everyone in the queue with a smile. "Relax. Ah, the next part will take a lot of physical exertion. Why are you so tense now?"

Most of the people in the queue were complaining in their hearts: Wasn't this supposed to be a physical examination? Why are we changing into training uniforms, wasting energy, and now we've come to a field training ground? What are we even doing?

Only Xu Sanduo, seeing Yuan Lang's smiling face, couldn't help but smile as well.

Next, Yuan Lang's words instantly shattered everyone's illusions about the physical examination: "Everyone here is a guest, and I must treat guests well."

So, a big meal has been prepared for everyone.

After a pause, Yuan Lang's smile widened. "A two-day trip within a hundred kilometers is a piece of cake for you, isn't it?"

Weapons are free to choose from within the provided area, and food is free to choose from as well.

He pointed to the box on the table behind him, "Even if you pick and choose, it's just a breakfast-like field ration, nothing special. It's just a wilderness survival exercise, wild vegetables stewed with wild rabbit."

Yuan Lang's voice grew louder and more seductive, "Hey, I've tried the local stewed wild rabbit before. But if you hunt a wild rabbit yourself and stew it, it tastes even better. Would you all like to try it?"

Many people in the team have vivid memories, especially the soldiers of the old Seventh Company. During field training, their deputy company commander, Zhang Anbang, often led them to chase wild rabbits.

There were at least eighty to a hundred wild rabbits that were chased to death by them.

Often, rabbits that are chased to the point of utter despair and can no longer run will frantically scramble back into their burrows, greatly increasing the rabbits' catch.

Looking at the soldiers in the ranks who were clearly eager to participate, Yuan Lang announced the assessment task: "The final requirement is to penetrate deep into the enemy's main position and complete the map operation."

That's what you must hand over to me when you finally reach your destination.

I suggest you operate in small groups because a reinforced battalion will be there to intercept you en route. I've heard you're all great, and I'd like to see just how great you really are.

As he spoke, Yuan Lang raised his hand to check his watch. "It's six o'clock now. I'll be waiting for you at the destination until this time the day after tomorrow."

Seeing the pairs of eyes brimming with fighting spirit, Yuan Lang added fuel to the fire. He raised his hand and held up three fingers, saying, "Let me make it clear beforehand, I'm driving a car with three seats."

I will take the first three of you who reach the destination. Now, please memorize the landmarks leading to the destination.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Anbang noticed that Gao Cheng visibly relaxed, his posture straightening up. He then turned and glared at him fiercely.

"Hehe," Zhang Anbang didn't say anything, but directly returned a smiley face to Gao Cheng.

Just as a few people in the group took out paper and pens from their pockets to take notes, Yuan Lang stopped them, saying, "Put your paper and pens away. What are you doing?"

For the next forty-eight hours, I am your enemy. Enemies don't tell you their coordinates. To the southeast, on the edge of the grassland, there's a small pond, next to a mountain, and beyond that, a pine forest.

I'll be waiting for you at the edge of the woods.

Seeing the somewhat puzzled looks on the faces of the people in the group, Yuan Lang breathed a sigh of relief, "Those who don't understand can ask."
