Girls und War

A group of girls walked around the mountains for a long time and returned to the assessment area before twelve o'clock.

If it was the previous march assessment, you couldn’t get off before 2 o’clock.

This is without leaving anyone behind.

If someone falls behind, it will take longer.

They walked with heavy steps and gathered in front of the examination room under the guidance of the invigilator.

Xia Shu held Jia's hand and finally watched her complete the whole journey.

"Is it possible?" Xia Shu asked Jia.

Jia showed a determined look, said "hmm", and then tightened Xia Shu's palm which had become slippery due to sweat.

A group of examiners and invigilators came out of the room and looked at them with relief.

If they rest two hours in advance and still don't do well in the exam tomorrow, then it will really be the fault of these soldiers who took the exam.

The invigilator who was leading the group of girls clocked in. He then walked aside, muttering, "Oh my god, I'm running myself to death."

He handed the girls over to a relay examiner at the back, wiped the sweat from his face, and said, "I'll leave the rest to you. I'm going to sleep. Don't wake me tomorrow morning."

The relay examiner couldn't help but say, "You're not carrying any weight, so why are you acting like a marathon runner?"

"Isn't it tiring to turn on the lights? Isn't it tiring to shout slogans?" The invigilator waved his hands, too lazy to talk to her.

He went to the officers' quarters on his own.

The relay examiner shook his head.

It's as if no one has ever invigilated an exam before.

Without any further ado, he quickly took the group of girls to the newly set up military tent.

"Okay, you will sleep here tonight. Get up at six o'clock tomorrow morning to start the assessment." After the examiner said this, he led the group of girls into the military tent.

Each of them had a sleeping bag and a pillow in their backpacks, which would be their beds tonight.

After having the girls spread out their sleeping bags, the examiner asked them to line up outside the tent.

When Xia Shu walked over, he found that there was a sweat removal robot outside.

Each time a girl walked under the robot, there was a beep.

Xia Shu also walked under the robot.

Soon, amid the sound of bees, a layer of white mist flew out from her collar, cuffs and other places.

Xia Shu smelled a salty and damp smell in his nose.

This sweat-removing robot didn't exist originally.

Originally, these girls were going to ferment in the military tent overnight.

The purpose of the assessment is to make them feel sour and smelly, so that they can't sleep well.

But the chief examiner seemed to have given some orders, so the examiners here made this small arrangement.

The girls who took the reference were still asked to keep their mouths shut.

By the time the girls had all cleaned the sweat off their bodies, the ground was already covered with their wet sweat.

Although there wouldn't be any middle-aged perverted uncles here, the examiner still called in a cleaning robot and started cleaning the floor.

Then she went into the big tent and told the girls to get some sleep.

Forget about showers and massages. The girls quickly got into their sleeping bags and fell asleep.

After all, every minute of sleep is a minute of sleep.

The examiner watched these privates fall asleep and arranged for someone to be on duty.

Then I went back to the dormitory area with other examiners.

After Xia Shu got into the sleeping bag, Jia suddenly called out from the side.

"Xia Shu." Jia said, blinking her big eyes, "Can you give me your hand?"

Xia Shu felt strange when he heard that, but he still stretched out his hand.

Jia covered her face with Xia Shu's hand and rubbed it.

Then he held her hand and closed his eyes.

Xia Shu smiled but didn't pull his hand back.

They held hands and fell asleep together.

At night, there were robot sentries standing guard for a group of girls, and no one came to disturb them.

They slept well.

The next morning, at six o'clock sharp.

The sharp whistle echoed over the examination room.

A group of girls climbed out of their sleeping bags and quickly gathered in the field.

Their spirits cannot be said to be good, but they are not too bad either.

At least the girls got six hours of comfortable sleep last night.

He felt much more comfortable than other corporals who took the deputy commander assessment.

The new invigilator came over and took the roll.

After the roll call, they were asked to wash up briefly and go to the toilet if they needed to.

Afterwards, each of them was given a breakfast.

The breakfast was very small, just a drink, a piece of bread, and a vegetable pancake per person.

Afterwards, they were asked to change into sportswear and prepare to start the assessment.

The content of the deputy commander's assessment is somewhat similar to that of a corporal.

But the difficulty and scale will be doubled.

It can be said that the deputy commander on the battlefield is a super-enhanced version of a corporal with a front-line vision.

They don't need any professional combat skills or tactical operations.

Just the most basic combat capability is enough.

However, this "foundation" must be top-notch compared to all other non-commissioned officers.

In addition, front-line command capabilities are also necessary.

Therefore, the first item of the assessment, the physical fitness assessment—

I'm afraid more than half of the people will be eliminated.

Before the girls were fully awake, the first five-kilometer weighted run had already begun.

Each person carries a load of 20 kilograms and runs 5 kilometers with a time limit of 22 minutes.

This is an extremely harsh number.

Usually, the girls in the company had to pass the fully armed test in 26 minutes.

Twenty-two minutes is excellent.

The minimum requirement for a deputy commander on the battlefield is to be fully armed and reach an excellent level.

Without this achievement, you are not qualified to become a deputy command sergeant.

Xia Shu's results this time were not very good.

The highest record for this data in the flower district is a little over eighteen minutes, and Xia Shu ran nearly nineteen minutes this time.

But no wonder.

No matter who it is - he can march 30 kilometers at night, sleep for six hours, and still break the record the next day.

That's not a human, it's a god.

Xia Shu's running result has made many people open their eyes wide.

She did break the record for the non-commissioned officer assessment.

But this thing is really useless. If you don't break the record, you won't get a commemorative medal.

Her last medal was for breaking the record for three kilometers without any equipment, not for setting a new assessment record.

As for the other girls, they started vomiting after running this race.

There were even two girls who fainted from running.

The examiner's expression turned ugly.

273. About pass rate

Whether Xia Shu broke the record or not, for her, for all the members of the assessment, and even for all the examiners—

None of it matters.

What matters is how many of this group of privates can pass the corporal assessment of the deputy battlefield commander.

This concerns the future grassroots non-commissioned officers and what proportion of them the deputy commanders will occupy.

As of now, it is not very ideal.

The first test for the hundred or so corporals was to carry a load for five kilometers, and nearly half of them were eliminated.

This was even after they had done some small things, such as marching at night and removing sweat in advance, to give them a chance.

If we follow the previous assessment standards, I'm afraid more people will be eliminated.

These girls really work hard.

But trying hard does not mean you are strong enough.

If your physical fitness doesn't reach that level, nothing you say will be of any use.

We can only look at the subsequent subjects and see how many girls can pass.

Jia gritted his teeth and stepped on the line to pass the five-kilometer weight-bearing test.

Twenty-one minutes and fifty-one seconds, just a few seconds short of passing.

Her eyes were red from running, and after she finished running, she went to the side and vomited with a group of girls.

The smell next to the runway was extremely bad.

When they could no longer vomit, the robot next to them immediately handed them warm water.

Jia gasped and rinsed her mouth with water.

Suddenly a hand reached out and wiped her face with a towel.

Jia raised her head and saw Xia Shu's warm smile.

Xia Shu showed no disgust at all and wiped all the dirt off Jia's face.

"Are you okay?" Xia Shu asked with a smile.

Jia uttered a forceful "hmm" and clenched his small fists.

The next item is the equipment assessment.

The invigilator gave the girls some time to rest, and only took them to the equipment testing point after they had completely calmed down.

Although a large number of people were eliminated, no one quit.

The girls seemed determined to give the test a complete try.

So the invigilator made some adjustments and asked the girls who had been eliminated to take the test first. Those who had passed the previous test would have a longer rest.

Requirements for equipment assessment:

Ten pull-ups on the horizontal bar passed.

Twelve parallel bar push-ups are a pass.
