Starting from the deputy company commander of the Soldier Assault Team

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go inside." Wu Liu reached out and pushed Xu Sanduo forward. "This thing is especially good for curing your motion sickness, and you won't fall. You can even save on safflower oil."

Xu Sanduo felt bitter inside. He couldn't fall, but after I went in, I turned into a fan. However, he looked at Shi Jin, who had a gentle smile on his face.

Xu Sanduo gritted his teeth, got on the roller, closed his eyes, and said, "Squad leader, come on."

"That's more like it." Wu Liuyi chuckled and quickly packed up Xu Sanduo's food with Shi Jin.

"Witt, I'll come, I'll come! I'd love to lend a hand!" Bai Tiejun shouted as soon as he saw the commotion and rushed over.

"Sanduo, watch me, I'll help you." Bai Tiejun winked at Xu Sanduo.

Xu Sanduo forced a smile, "Ah, thank you, thank you, Lao Bai."

"Come on, you!" Bai Tiejun gripped the steel bars on the edge of the frame with both hands, lowered his waist and pushed hard, and the fan-shaped rollers instantly started to spin, making Xu Sanduo move in circles with him.

As Xu Sanduo was inside the roller, a wave of dizziness washed over him as it began to spin.

His face quickly turned deathly pale, cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his body began to tilt uncontrollably. However, thanks to the backpack straps and safety rope, Xu Sanduo remained firmly secured.

"Stay steady, engage your core, and brace yourself like a pole." Wu Liuyi's voice rang out from the side, and the rough sound invigorated Xu Sanduo.

At the company office window, Zhang Anbang held a water glass and said, "Company Commander, look how united and friendly the soldiers of our Seventh Company are. This big fan is really great."

"A fan?" Gao Cheng was a little confused. Zhang Anbang was looking in the direction of the training ground. When did his Steel Seventh Company's training ground get a fan?

Gao Cheng stood up and looked out the window. He saw Shi Jin, Wu Liuyi, and Bai Tiejun standing in the corner of the training field, near the rollers.

A person was strapped to the roller, and Bai Tiejun was standing aside laughing and speeding up the roller.

Gao Cheng couldn't help but smile. He had played with this thing before, and it was quite a thrill.

"Look at this RPM, it's about thirty revolutions per minute." Zhang Anbang turned to look at Gao Cheng.

"Thirty rotations? That's too slow. Besides, what kind of fan is this? It's clearly a waterwheel, and a slow-moving one at that," Gao Cheng complained, looking out the window.

"Hmm?" Zhang Anbang turned to look out the window, gave a thumbs up and said, "Company Commander, your Chinese is pretty good. What you said is quite vivid. It's just that the water is a bit too murky."

It turned out that Xu Sanduo had already started to vomit, spinning around and vomiting, just like a wooden waterwheel turning and pumping water up.

That's what's slow—thirty laps a minute. Gao Laoqi's words are a bit dishonest. Zhang Anbang remembers seeing a video about female pilot assessments on Douyin in his previous life.

In 2017, the first batch of ten female armed helicopter pilots independently trained by the Army officially entered the Army Aviation Academy. When they graduated in July 2021, their performance in the wheel test was considered excellent if they could complete thirty rotations in one minute.

Of course, he couldn't say this, since the Army Aviation Corps doesn't have any female pilots yet. If he did, Gao Cheng would probably think he was crazy.

Yes, in those days, the Army Aviation did not have its own female pilots. The core time for the birth of the Chinese female pilots is generally recognized as November 1951 and March 8, 1952.

In April 1951, 55 female students entered the Mudanjiang Seventh Flight School, 14 of whom specialized in flight piloting, thus beginning the training of female pilots in China.

In November 1951, these fourteen female pilots successfully graduated after seven months of training. On March 8, 1952, they flew their fighter planes over Tiananmen Square in Beijing, marking the first public flight of Chinese female pilots.

This also marked the official formation of the Chinese Women's Shooting Team, and March 8, 1952, is regarded as an important milestone in the official birth of the Chinese Women's Shooting Team.

As for the Army Aviation, it wasn't until 5 that the General Staff Army Aviation Department selected five female fighter pilots from the Air Force to enter a certain Army Aviation brigade and be converted to attack helicopters.

In October 2014, these five women completed all their modifications and assessments, made their debut in a training exercise in the Yanshan Mountains, and officially entered the Army Aviation combat sequence, becoming the first batch of female attack helicopter pilots in the Chinese Army Aviation, and were known as the Five Golden Flowers.

……

More than twenty days have passed in the blink of an eye. The biggest event that Steel Seventh Company has experienced is the infrared exercise. Xu Sanduo has made great progress in all subjects and has now firmly established himself in the middle to lower ranks of Steel Seventh Company.

During the infrared defense exercise, Shi Jin, who was seconded from the regimental training team, did not personally set up the camouflage branches and trenches. Instead, he patrolled the hiding areas of each class.

If Gao Cheng was the leader of the sixteen company commanders in the 702nd Company, then Shi Jin was the leader of the twelve combat squad leaders.

He trained eleven out of the twelve squad leaders. Now his post has been transferred to the regimental training team, and Wu Liuyi has taken over as the squad leader of the third squad. It can be said that he trained all twelve squad leaders.

As for Xu Sanduo not trying to make his presence known to Shi Jin this time, Wu Liuyi directly assigned him the task of digging a hole, so Xu Sanduo carried the entrenching tool and huffed and puffed away at the dirt.

As for food, Liu Xuexi, the head of the cooking squad, originally wanted to prepare some hot food, but Zhang Anbang refused directly, saying, "It's only October, some lukewarm food is fine. The exercise is more important."

"Yes, Deputy Company Commander, I understand."

Class monitor Liu accepted the order and left. Such orders were quite common, and Gao Cheng usually gave the same kind of orders.

Only instructor Hong Xingguo felt sorry for the soldiers, thinking that it wasn't good for them to eat cold food all day. The soldiers already expend a lot of energy every day, and during the infrared defense exercise, they were cutting down trees and digging holes. Eating something hot would make them feel more comfortable.

The cook squad leader is a backbone member in every company. In the Steel Seventh Company, Squad Leader Liu Xuexi is second only to Shi Jin. He has excellent military skills and is also a great cook.

However, his greater interest was in cooking, so he transferred to the mess hall. Incidentally, he was also trained by Shi Jin.

The Steel Seventh Company had twelve combat squads plus a cooking squad, totaling thirteen squad leaders. If Shi Jin was the eldest among the squad leaders, then he was the second eldest.

In particular, he is also a great cook. He is skilled in the three major cuisines in the army. He is good at the salty and savory flavor of the North, which is derived from the home-style dishes of Shandong, Hebei and Northeastern cuisines, as well as the mildly spicy flavor of Sichuan and Hunan cuisines, combined with the basic spiciness of Sichuan and Hunan cuisines.

As for the light flavors of the South, sorry, he's a native of the North and has been stationed in a military region in the North for a long time, so he really can't do it.

With just these two skills, he was already the top cook in the 702nd Regiment. Even the regimental canteen tried to recruit him, and he replied that he was the 4,847th soldier in the Steel Seventh Company.

The head cook is a professional technical support position, and the number of fourth-term sergeant positions is relatively generous. Liu Xuexi plans to stay in the Steel Seventh Company until he is demobilized.

Liu Xuexi and his class prepared steamed buns, twisted rolls, and flatbreads for the Seventh Company in advance, wrapped in moisture-proof oil paper so that the soldiers wouldn't get cold or hard when they ate them, and there wouldn't be any extra heat source.

In addition, they prepared some braised meat, cucumber salad, shredded potatoes, and lukewarm mung bean soup. Without Xu Sanduo's interference, and with Liu Xuexi's meticulous preparation, even with the helicopter's surprise attack, the Steel Seventh Company still perfectly completed this infrared defense exercise.

Seeing Gao Cheng's nonchalant attitude, Zhang Anbang curled his lip in disdain. Good heavens, wasn't it you who was jumping up and down cursing and wanted to be executed because Xu Sanduo caused the exposure?

……

"Company Commander, how about it? I told you I hadn't misjudged this soldier, did I?" Shi Jin said with a smile. Initially, he had only promised to train Xu Sanduo to be a respectable soldier, but he didn't expect Xu Sanduo to actually stick to it.

That guy, Xu Sanduo hasn't had a moment of peace in the past month. Every day he's covered in bruises, making Shi Jin grit his teeth in disgust.

I've used twenty bottles of safflower oil, and many parts of my skin have peeled off several times. Axe Brand safflower oil is indeed effective, but it contains chili oil, and if you use it too much, your skin will naturally become red and peel.

Even so, Xu Mumu didn't utter a sound, letting Shi Jin and Wu Liuyi drag him through all sorts of drills every day. Even Wu Liuyi, a man of steel, was impressed and his attitude towards Xu Sanduo improved.

"Well, look at the worthless way you're laughing. I admit he's improved, but even if he has, he's still in the middle to lower ranks."

He hasn't even caught up with Bai Tiejun's grades yet.

Gao Cheng was furious when he saw the smug smile on Shi Jin's face. This guy's smile looked a lot like Zhang Anbang's smug smile at times, and it was just as infuriating.

"Well, platoon leader, it's only been a short time, just a month. We've already fallen to the lower middle of our company. This performance would be considered above average in other companies."

Shi Jin's smile faltered for a moment, but he still managed to offer an explanation.

Gao Cheng was taken aback. That's how it is. This unremarkable guy, when he first joined the Seventh Company, couldn't even come close to the Seventh Company's ranking.

Now, this guy he looks down on is doing poorly in the Seventh Company, which, according to the Seventh Company's performance, is close to good.

Everyone in 702 knows that the standards of the Steel Seventh Company are one level higher than the assessment standards set by the army. What is considered good in a general company is considered qualified in the Seventh Company.

In other words, Xu Sanduo's performance would be considered close to excellent in a typical company, which is actually a remarkable improvement.
