Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

As Wu Liuyi turned and saluted, the entire audience erupted in enthusiastic applause once again.

No one in the room disagreed with the second-class merit award; the strength was absolutely overwhelming.

Most importantly, we won first place in nine out of ten categories. Although we only came in twelfth place in battlefield trauma first aid, that was because we didn’t handle some minor details well.

These small details can lead to point deductions in the exam, which is why Wu Liuyi didn't get a high score or a good ranking.

However, the exam room is different from reality. Wu Liuyi's battlefield trauma first aid skills are not a big problem. In a real battlefield, they can be used to save people.

Battlefield medical care is not like a hospital operating room, where there is only one rule: save lives first, then treat illnesses.

As for infections or unreasonable injuries, sorry, only those who survive have the right to consider these things.

Medics, or battlefield trauma first aiders, prioritize saving lives and will take these factors into account during treatment. However, it depends on the specific conditions; if conditions do not permit, these factors will not be considered.

Wu Liuyi lowered his salute, turned around, walked off the platform, and returned to the ranks.

Zhu An, who had come along with the team, looked at Wu Liuyi with admiration in his eyes.

The commendation ceremony continued, but the second-place winner, who did not win any individual awards or break any records and whose total score was far behind, was only awarded a second-place certificate and a commendation.

As the commendation ceremony ended and the team disbanded, Zhu An called out to Wu Liuyi, "Good lad, you performed exceptionally well this time, better than I expected."

Wu Liuyi laughed heartily, "Squad leader, the way you're saying that makes you doubt my abilities."

That's right, Zhu An, the former deputy company commander, has also been promoted and is now the deputy battalion-level major company commander of the 28th Company. Although he has only been promoted for a short time, he has at least caught up with his old classmate Gao Cheng's rank.

Although his administrative benefits are somewhat inferior to those of a battalion commander in Gaocheng, the position of company commander is a standard battalion commander rank, so he should be promoted soon.

Zhu An raised his hand and patted Wu Liuyi on the shoulder. "You've been under my command for over a year, so I'm sure I know your strength. But this is a martial arts competition, and who knows what will happen?"

Strength is strength, and ranking is ranking. I've seen plenty of people who usually get excellent grades but fail to achieve good results in exams or competitions due to unforeseen circumstances.

When I get back to the office, I need to call Lao Gao to give him the good news. He got a second-class merit award! You're a sure thing when you graduate.

You're already a bit older than expected; you'll be 28 by graduation and will be awarded the rank of second lieutenant. It's hard to say exactly how long you'll stay in the military.

The minimum age for promotion from second lieutenant to first lieutenant is 2 years. By the time you can be promoted to first lieutenant, you'll be at least 30. But things will be different after you get this second-class merit.

Breaking records in a skills competition, standing out from the crowd, and receiving a second-class merit award from the military region—according to the regulations, this qualifies as an exceptionally outstanding junior college student. With the approval of the political department, they can be directly promoted to lieutenant deputy company commander upon graduation.

Starting from a different point in your life means different opportunities in the military later on. This is great news! How about Children's Day? Are you happy?

Wu Liuyi hadn't thought that much about it before, but after hearing the analysis from Squadron Leader Zhu An, he laughed and unconsciously scratched the back of his head. "Well, Squadron Leader, I really didn't think that much about it just now."

However, after your analysis, Squad Leader, it's true. I'm happy. This is indeed a good thing for me. After all, my old leader once said that with my personality, I don't know what I could do if I entered society.

Later, I heard that many of my comrades had gone to work in logistics with another retired comrade of mine, Bai Tiejun. They could earn a lot there and it was quite worry-free. Although there were some minor troubles on the road, they weren't a problem for people from the military.

I also have a military B driver's license. I asked around before, and if I retire, I can go to the vehicle management office to apply for an A2 tractor driver's license, and then I can drive a semi-trailer directly.

I had previously thought that if I didn't know what to do after being discharged, I would become a semi-trailer driver, but now I have a greater chance to stay in the military for a longer period of time, which is really a great thing for me.

"Haha," Zhu An laughed heartily, "You rascal, you really are too straightforward. It's really good for you to go drive a semi-trailer truck with your comrades."

But you're thinking a bit wrong. Even if you're a second lieutenant, with enough years of service and excellent performance, although you can't choose your own career path, it shouldn't be a problem to assign you a job in the Public Security Bureau.

Of course, you don't need to worry about those issues now. With your abilities, there's absolutely no problem for you to be promoted to lieutenant colonel and deputy regimental commander before the age of 40.

"Don't worry about driving big trucks anymore. As long as you work hard, there shouldn't be any major problems serving in the military until retirement."

Wu Liu nodded. "I don't want to think about it anymore, Company Commander. I'll just do my best in the army and try to serve until I retire."

"Haha, that's more like it," Zhu An stopped at the office door. "I'm going to call Gao Cheng to share the good news. Do you want to come over and chat with him for a bit?"

Wu Liuyi waved his hand. "No, company commander. If you report this to my old company commander, he might laugh at me. After all, it's far from half the achievements of another of my old leaders."

I need to hurry up and start studying. I've fallen behind in my classes these past few days due to the competitions. It's not easy to get here to study, so I need to seize the opportunity to learn as much as possible.

"You're quite reliable. Okay, go ahead and do it. No matter what the course is, ask me anything you don't understand."

"Yes, squad leader."

Watching Wu Liuyi's departing figure, Zhu An couldn't help but smile and mutter to himself, "Old Gao's team is really good. I'm even envious."

After muttering to himself, Zhu An walked into his office, picked up the phone, and dialed a number. "Hello, Gao Cheng? It's me, Zhu An. Are you busy?"

Gao Cheng was a little surprised. This old classmate always said he was busy, so why did he take the initiative to call him? Could it be that Wu Liuyi had something to say?

"Hey, Lao Zhu, you're not busy right now, but you're the busiest person. Didn't you always say you were so busy you couldn't even stand still? Why did you suddenly call me? What's up, or is something wrong with Wu Liuyi?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu An immediately objected, "Old Gao, what are you talking about? What do you mean I have something to do, or Wu Liuyi? Can't I call you if there's nothing wrong?"

"Stop talking nonsense," Gao Cheng said without any mercy. "When have you ever called me when you have nothing to do? But judging from the fact that you still have time to argue, you must not have anything important to do."

I'm busy right now, so I'll leave it at that for now and talk about it again when I have time.
