Girls und War

I think now that Xia Shu has become a representative figure of the flower zone, what he needs to do must be prioritized for the entire war zone.

Expecting Xia Shu to continue working for the Red Dragon Squadron was probably no longer realistic. It was even possible that after a while, Xia Shu would be just a figurehead in the Red Dragon Squadron, and all matters would have to be arranged by his superiors first.

From this perspective, letting Xia Shu train new snipers in the squadron ahead of time turned out to be a brilliant move.

As for Doragon's own thoughts - now she is just like an old father who has to watch his daughter get married, with no way to do anything.

What else could he do? He could only hope that Xia Shu was a sentimental person, and after getting married, she wouldn't forget that the Red Dragon Squadron was her family home.

Doragon shed tears.

As for Xia Shu, after leaving the imaginary battlefield, he did not report to the regiment headquarters immediately.

Instead, he returned to the camp and conducted a surprise inspection of the training situation of the quasi-sniper training team.

The girls in the training team were so frightened when they saw Xia Shu suddenly appear on the training ground.

Although they were quite obedient when they were in Qingxian's hands, and they trained hard and seriously.

But they couldn't help but feel that Xia Shu had left such a horrible mark deep in their souls.

This feeling is just like the terrifying figure left in the hearts of students by their middle school homeroom teacher - who could forget the white shadow lurking in the shadows, in front of the last window from the back door, deep in their memories?

This kind of memory is so terrifying that many people still wake up from their dreams more than ten years after entering society and remember that they did not study hard.

The same was true for the girls in the training camp. The moment they saw Xia Shu, they felt a sense of fear that could not be dispelled.

Fortunately, Xia Shu only gave a few simple pointers and didn't criticize anyone. However, just these two simple words sent a chill down the spines of the six people on the training ground.

The plant that has this feeling most deeply is the rush.

Although she didn't see anything, the moment Xia Shu appeared, a feeling of palpitations surged from the bottom to the top.

Then, after several dozen seconds, she heard Xia Shu's voice.

Juncus herself didn't know why she could sense Xia Shu's presence from such a distance. But she was sure that this was definitely not love!

At least not this time!

But what they didn't know was that at this moment, Xia Shu suddenly developed a sense of absurd dislocation.

She had clearly spent more than ten days in the imaginary battlefield, but when she looked outside, she found that only less than four days had actually passed.

It feels like an airplane constantly shuttling across the International Date Line, sometimes it is today, sometimes it is tomorrow.

This kind of day has lasted for so long that even she herself probably can't figure out what day it is.

It really is like a day in heaven and a year on earth.

It seems that every time I enter or leave the imaginary battlefield, I have to adjust to the time difference.

After a while, Xia Shu adjusted himself in the dormitory, changed his clothes, and went to the regiment office building alone.

In the Propaganda Department's office, Xia Shu ran into Chunxiang, who was also there to rehearse a documentary.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time (half a month), so when they met at this time, it was naturally like a short separation was better than another... It was naturally like old friends meeting each other, it felt like a long time had passed.

The two of them opened up to each other... After exchanging friendly greetings, they casually chatted about what had happened in the past few days.

Then they talked about the photos of Xia Shu being forced to work, and Haruka felt the same way.

It turns out that she also made an identical one.

At this time, the concept drawings of the promotional photos had already been released and sent to Chunxiang.

The Propaganda Department also sent a copy to Xia Shu.

It's just that she's been in the imaginary battlefield all this time, and when she's not on the battlefield, she likes to turn on Do Not Disturb. So she has no idea what emails she received.

669. I love working overtime, it makes me happy!

Seeing that Xia Shu had no idea about the promotional concept map, Haruka took out the concept map in her hand and showed it to Xia Shu.

Xia Shu was amused when he saw it.

This picture was made into the style of a large poster - the kind of giant poster that Xia Shu saw in the courtyard of the recruit town when he first joined the army.

The poster is designed to look like two faces on the left and right spliced ​​into one, which is a typical mainstream promotional style.

On the left and right of the face are the gentle and lovely Haruka, and the cold and ruthless Natsuki.

I heard that this poster is this year's recruitment propaganda picture, which means that the large picture hanging in the patio will be replaced with this one.

That’s not all, the key is the background story behind the poster.

Look at the title of the poster - "Twins of Time".

The slogan below is: The future changes because of you.

Um? What's the meaning?

Is it implying the alternation of the old and the new, and the change of dynasties?

The era of Haruka is over, and now it is the era of Natsuki - will you, who joined the army, be the next king?

Kind of interesting, ah.

But Xia Shu was still a little dissatisfied.

"Why do you picture me like this? Do I look like a bad guy?" Xia Shu pointed at his own face on the poster.

"Are you angry? I'm still angry - I'm your background again." Although Chunxiang said this, she had a smile on her face.

As they talked, they both started laughing, and the Propaganda Department was suddenly filled with the silver bell-like laughter of young girls.

Not long after, the official photographer for the documentary also arrived.

It’s the same person from last time.

In front of the two ace sniper girls, the photographer explained in detail the shooting script and requirements.

The story is basically very simple. It tells the inspirational story of how Xia Shu grew from an unknown recruit to the world's best in just one year.

During this period, there will also be a story line about Chunxiang trying to maintain the second place in this year.

It's like having two protagonists and two stories, and finally the two stories converge on the field. Then the theme is touched upon.

In short, it is a very main theme.

Natsuki didn't have any objection to this, but it seemed that Haruka would be a background figure again, and it was suspected that she would be whipped (?) more than once.

She was a little worried that Chunxiang was upset, but when she turned around, Chunxiang seemed to be quite satisfied with the script.

It seems that I have been persecuted into the old Stockholm patient.

In addition, the shooting period of this time should be relatively long, possibly lasting two or three months.

According to the work arrangement of the photography team, except for shooting important interview shots in the first few days, the other shots must be divided into scattered time and arranged according to the specific situation.

This makes filming more complicated. If it can't be done in a few days, they have to ask their superiors for instructions.

So after a while, Jiamei came down from upstairs and negotiated with the photographer.

She figured that since the fighting on the imaginary battlefield wasn't intense at the moment, the sisters Haruka and Natsuki probably didn't have much to do. So she promised the photographer that if she had time, she would prioritize filming the video for the publicity department.

So the photographer happily discussed the shooting schedule with Chunxia and the others, and then started the most important interview shooting in the Propaganda Department's studio.

The interview was partly scripted and partly improvised, and Natsuki had no idea which parts would ultimately be used, so he spoke very casually.

But according to the photographer, the shooting results were good. In that case, Xia Shu could leave work early.

But she did not leave first. Instead, she waited until Chunxiang got off work before making an appointment with her to go to the regiment's cafeteria and have a good meal together.

This feeling was very strange, a bit like being an office worker from 9 to 5. Even this job was very easy, no one cared about her.

Is this the perk of being number one in the world? Is this the true life of a top player?

Looking at the sweet smile of Haruka in front of him, Xia Shu felt that he was about to indulge in the land of tenderness!

I'm about to fall in love with this feeling!

So she quickly shook her head to get rid of the useless thoughts in her mind.

No, no, Xia Shu, you can't do this.

The reason you have come this far is entirely due to your persistent efforts and ten years of hard work.

If you fall into depravity at this moment, what is the point of all your previous efforts?

If she wanted to, she could have stopped ten years ago, stood still, and continued lying there blindly.

But she can't stop, because there are too many things waiting for her to do and the world is waiting for her to save!

Natsuki! Remember! You still have a mission to save the world!

Lightning Superman Gurlitt! Transformation!

Then, Haruka saw that Xia Shu's eyes in front of her suddenly became firm.

Although she didn't know why, she was still happy about Xia Shu's changes.

After all, what attracts others to Xia Shu is that she is full of positive energy!

In the following days, Xia Shu and Haruka continued to shoot the documentary.

She used the time between filming sessions to train the six prospective snipers in the camp.

She was not idle even at night.

Sleeping is a waste of time - it's better to enter the imaginary battlefield and fight with VV.

Anyway, idle is idle.

Working in three shifts, Xia Shu's schedule suddenly became tight, as if he had regained the feeling of being ready for battle.

At the same time, she also gained a long-lost sense of self-fulfillment.

However, when the filming reached the later stage of the first phase, the publicity headquarters' photographer and director seemed to have encountered some bottlenecks in the filming.

According to her, there is nothing new in the script no matter how you read it, and the audience already knows how the story has developed over the past year.

This photographer is also an aspiring director, so he doesn't want the script to look so simple and boring.

But I wanted to add something new to it, but I couldn't find any good material at the moment.

So the situation became a little tense.

However, Chunxiang came up with a brilliant idea after reading the script.

"Material? Just film something that the audience will find interesting?" Chunxiang said, as if this was easy. "That's easy. Why not just find a very specific event and film it for them to watch?"

"So is there any very phased work in the near future?" Xia Shu was also very puzzled.

Haruka thought for a moment, then suddenly clapped her hands and pointed at Natsuki, "The sergeant to staff sergeant exam is about to begin. Hurry up and sign up. We'll film you taking the exam! The audience will definitely be interested!"

"But I'm not ready yet! What if I fail?" Xia Shu was a little confused.

"It's okay, as long as there's enough topic to talk about. Whether you succeed or fail, it looks very inspiring." Haruka was so eager to sign up for Xia Shu at this moment.

"Hurry up! Hurry! The registration deadline is almost here!"

670. Regarding whether Xia Shu needs to be promoted

Although sergeant is the pinnacle of military rank for grassroots soldiers, the difficulty of its assessment is no longer something that can be achieved simply by accumulating time.

But in fact, there is really nothing much to say about Xia Shu's assessment for promotion from sergeant to staff sergeant.

As for the basic skills test, sergeant is almost the limit of what the army requires of soldiers.

The army's requirements for senior non-commissioned officers do not focus on their personal abilities.

What is more important is whether they can do their job well in their current position.

This is true for corporals and sergeants, as well as staff sergeants and the higher-ranking sergeant major.

In the final analysis, soldiers are soldiers. As long as they can support the basic structure of the army like pillars within the scope of their abilities, the army's building will be able to withstand all kinds of wind and rain and will not be easily blown down.

The difference between a staff sergeant and a sergeant-at-arms is that a sergeant's job is to organize the combat troops into categories for the company commander, while a staff sergeant's job is to organize the company commander's entire belongings.

Therefore, the assessment of military skills for staff sergeants is not higher than that for sergeants. Instead, they are required to have a systematic and comprehensive understanding of the definition of their military position.
