Girls und War

This time, Xia Shu, like Qingxian who took him to take the exam last time, signed at the invigilation desk as the head of the exam team.

Therefore, during the period of assessment, the three girls' department affiliation was transferred from the Red Dragon Squadron to the assessment team.

After the assessment is over, they may be promoted or not. This is the right given to the assessment team by the Generals' Council.

No regiment or company has the right to promote soldiers.

This also ensures that grassroots military power is held in the hands of the Generals' Council - at least that's how it can be understood legally.

Afterwards, Xia Shu and other leading officers or senior non-commissioned officers sat on the observation platform and began to watch the girls' assessment process.

I have to say, after sitting here, watching the girls in front of me working hard, it is really quite enjoyable.

It seems that there are sophomores and juniors who are watching the freshmen participate in the military training at the beginning of the school year.

As Zhan Ren and Jia finished their roll call and began preparing for the first test, and Rong Xingcao was taken to a separate exam room, Xia Shu leaned back in her seat and browsed the forum.

I was reading a post discussing the reform of this year's bill when I suddenly heard a call with a hint of surprise.

"Isn't this Natsuki?"

Xia Shu turned his head when he heard the voice, only to see an acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time - Captain Feng Qi, a platoon leader in the recruit company.

She is also Shuibian's sister.

Xia Shu smiled and was about to stand up to salute Feng Qi, but Feng Qi quickly pushed her down and said, "No need to be so formal, let's just chat casually."

As he said that, he sat down next to Xia Shu and started chatting with her.

689. All staff passed the assessment

Feng Qi, like Xia Shu, also led a team to take the assessment today.

Feng Qi is now the company commander of a combat unit with a high number in the regular army.

Today was the private first class to corporal exam, and two girls from their company were also taking the sniper exam. So Feng Qi appeared on the observation deck.

The time waiting for the assessment to begin was a bit boring, so Fengqi looked around and happened to see that the person sitting here looked familiar.

Looking closely, he found that it was Xia Shu, who was very popular at the moment. So Fengqi walked over and greeted Xia Shu.

The two sat together and chatted briefly about their recent situation. Then Fengqi naturally turned the topic to his beloved sister, Shuibian.

"How's Shuibian doing lately? You..." Fengqi started laughing as he spoke, "Huh? I didn't notice just now, you're already a sergeant? Does that mean Shuibian is now your subordinate soldier?"

Xia Shu shook his head and said with a smile, "That's not the case. I'm the squadron's sniper, and I'm only in charge of one sniper training team. The waterside is not my responsibility. You should go ask Viper."

Feng Qi thought for a moment, and then seemed to recall Viper, so he casually said, "Viper... I remember she was the instructor in the recruit company... What position did she hold in your squadron?"

"The squadron's deputy commander, in charge of four deputy team leaders." Xia Shu replied, "Shuibian is currently rotating with several other sergeants in the squadron, all under Viper's management."

Feng Qi nodded, a hint of confusion in his eyes, and continued, "It's really strange. It's only been half a year, but it feels like a long time has passed. And you, Xia Shu. How did you go from a recruit to a sergeant directly? How can you be promoted so quickly?"

Xia Shu smiled and didn't respond. But he thought to himself that maybe after a while, he would be a sergeant major.

At this moment, Fengqi showed an embarrassed expression again and asked Xia Shu in a low voice, "Um... has Shuibian ever mentioned me?"

Xia Shu originally wanted to say that she hadn't said it once. But seeing Feng Qi's expectant gaze, she looked away and said, "Occasionally... I'll talk about it, but not often..."

"Ah, then...what did she say?" Feng Qi's expression became even more expectant.

"I just mentioned it once or twice when we were talking, and I didn't discuss it much." Xia Shu felt guilty and didn't dare to look at Feng Qi's expression.

Fortunately, Fengqi was so focused on her sister that she didn't notice Xia Shu's lie. Otherwise, the poor sister would have been even more disappointed.

Feng Qi then asked, "So, has she signed up for the sergeant exam this time?"

Xia Shu nodded and replied, "I've signed up. I'll take the exam in two days."

Feng Qi then said worriedly, "It's very difficult. I don't know if she can do well in the exam..."

She looked like an old mother who was worried about her daughter's studies.

At this time, the first few items of the sniper assessment had begun, and the leading officers on the stage turned their attention to the examination room.

Several officers in the front row even cheered for their soldiers.

"Keep calm and focus on the test!" Xia Shu also shouted loudly to Zhan Ren and Jia.

When the two heard the voice, they turned around and saw Xia Shu, and their mood seemed to calm down immediately.

Feng Qi saw this and asked, "Which ones did you bring?"

Xia Shu pointed to the two girls on the field.

Then, the assessment officially began.

The subjects in this assessment are similar to those Xia Shu experienced in the deputy commander assessment, so I will not go into details.

However, compared to the deputy commander, the physical fitness requirements for a sniper are more stringent, the subjects that require timing will be more stringent, and there are more subjects that require the use of sniper rifles.

Seeing that the two girls under Xia Shu were performing well, Feng Qi praised them, "Your squadron's training level is quite good. They are now at the level of non-commissioned officers."

"How can you take the corporal assessment without the level of a non-commissioned officer? Not to mention that I trained them myself..." Xia Shu complained, then asked, "Which ones are you training? How are their levels?"

"Yes." Feng Qi pointed at the two girls who were following the large group, gasping for breath.

Xia Shu saw it, shook his head, and said, "This is worse than rush."

"Rush? I remember she wasn't... blind? Was she assigned to your squadron too?" Feng Qi's expression was a little indescribable, as if she still remembered the girl who couldn't see anything in the recruit company.

"Yes, she also took part in the assessment this time." Speaking of rush, Xia Shu couldn't help but smile.

"How can we conduct the assessment if we can't see?" Feng Qi's expression became even more puzzled.

So Xia Shu explained to her how the examiner had set up a separate examination room for Juncao.

Afterwards, the two of them sat on the stage, chatting and watching, waiting boringly for the entire morning.

After lunch, the assessment continued and they waited boringly for another afternoon.

During this period, several officers in charge of the team could not stand the poor performance of the rookie corporals, so they ran into the field and gave on-the-spot instructions while scolding them like coaches.

The examiners didn't prohibit such behavior, but this kind of on-the-spot instruction clearly put immense pressure on the corporals taking the test, leading to their performance being disrupted.

Xia Shu, on the other hand, looked completely indifferent. It seemed as if Zhan Ren and Jia's grades had little to do with her, and it didn't matter what they got.

Feng Qi showed a certain degree of surprise at this.

She herself didn't care either, but that was because the corporal under her was so incompetent.

Instead of having unrealistic expectations, it is better to let them play freely and see how much experience they can gain from it.

The two girls that Xia Shu brought with him looked promising enough to pass the test.

Xia Shu was able to keep her composure in this situation, which only shows that her educational method is very different.

As for the results of the assessment, it did not seem to be beyond Fengqi's expectations.

Xia Shu's three corporals, including Junco, all passed the sniper corporal assessment.

Seeing a blind girl like Juncao walk to the front of the commissioning platform under the guidance of a guide robot, the officers in the observation seats couldn't help but reveal expressions of amazement.

Xia Shu was also a little surprised by this result.

These girls must have studied sniping techniques a lot. Otherwise, there's no way they could pass those combat-related exams without any instruction from Xia Shu.

Feng Qi, after seeing such a result, also started to think.

Is it because the pressure on these privates is too strong?

Should we try adopting a laissez-faire policy towards them like Xia Shu did?

690. The wind whistles and the Yi River is cold. Doragon has gone and will never return.

After the assessment was over, Feng Qi said goodbye to Xia Shu.

Afterwards, the two of them brought their own reference teams and completed simple handover procedures with the assessment team.

Looking at the three girls who were beaming with joy after receiving their new military ranks, Xia Shu didn't directly pour cold water on them.

Instead, he calmly asked them, "Tell me, who did you learn sniping skills from?"

Seeing Xia Shu's expression of confession and leniency, the three of them looked at each other in confusion.

Then, Rush was the first to confess, "I learned this from squad leader Xiaotang."

Seeing that Juncus was the first to confess, Jia had no choice but to confess honestly, "I learned it from Lieutenant Tingchao."

Zhan Zhan hesitated for a moment and replied, "I didn't learn from anyone else."

"Didn't find it?" Xia Shu frowned. "Then how did you learn it?"

"I..." Zhan Zhan said hesitantly, "I watched your combat videos and learned it myself..."

When Jia heard this, his eyes were stunned and he regretted inwardly, why didn’t I think of such a perfect answer?

Such a good opportunity to flatter someone, but this little girl got there first! Damn it!

Xia Shu was a little surprised to hear Zhan Ren's reply.

"Did you learn it by yourself? Without asking anyone else?" she asked again.

Zhan Zhan shook his head and answered honestly, "No."

It seems that Zhan Jian does have the talent to be a sniper?

Xia Shu fell into deep thought.

The three of them saw (heard) Xia Shu remain silent and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xia Shu was silent for a moment and did not comment on this.

He simply said, "Let's go," and then took the three of them out of the examination area.

Then the four of them returned to Qingxian and immediately attracted the attention of a group of girls.

Most of the girls who took the test today failed.

Among all the people, only Xiaotang and Lark passed the assessment for promotion from corporal to sergeant.

At this moment, Xia Shu and his men came back, and suddenly, bang! Three corporals appeared.

Who can stand this?

Qingxian looked at the three girls, then looked at Xia Shu with a complicated expression, and then said, "I'm starting to think about letting you take over the squadron's training arrangements."

"No! Don't do that!" Xiao Zhao said hurriedly, "Leave them a chance to survive! When has our logistics team ever suffered such injustice?"

As they spoke, the little girls next to them also showed pleading expressions.

"I'm just saying..." Qingxian said helplessly, "If you don't want to be like this, then you should try to be more respectful! Look at these privates, and then look at you. Aren't you ashamed?"

Upon hearing this, all the corporals showed expressions of shame and uneasiness.

Jia muttered quietly, "We are corporals now...", but unfortunately no one heard him.

Afterwards, Qingxian showed an expression of disappointment and led the squadron members on the way home.

In the next few days, the assessments for sergeants to be promoted from staff sergeants to major sergeants will be conducted in order.

However, as the backbone of the squadron with higher military ranks, they do not need to be led by officers.

In addition, the assessment of officers is also carried out simultaneously during these days.

Doragon has been holding it in for so many days, just waiting for this moment.

Seeing Doragon about to board the vehicle to the examination center, everyone couldn't help but feel sad.

After so many years of taking the exam, there is still no result, and no one knows whether she can pass the test this time.

And Doragon also looked at the people who were seeing him off with a nostalgic look, as if he was about to go to the execution ground.

Qingxian couldn't help but say, "Hurry up, don't dawdle," and then he kicked Doragon into the car and walked up himself.

As for Xia Shu and Viper, who were also taking the assessment, they boarded another direct train belonging to non-commissioned officers.

Xiao Zhao did not participate in the Sergeant Major assessment this time because she felt that her level was not up to par and she would definitely be blocked at the interview stage.

As for Xia Shu and Viper, although they had made sufficient preparations beforehand, they were still unsure.
