Girls und War

Lieutenant Hua didn't comment on Xia Shu's decision, but simply reminded him, "This application is for a place in a frontline combat unit."

Then he took the documents and left Xia Shu's office.

Xia Shu thought about it and estimated that this kind of squeezing of quotas was inevitable.

After all, there is a quota for recruiting lieutenant officers every year.

Whether it was for a spot in a frontline combat unit or a spot in a special operations unit, he would inevitably have to compete with people from other military units. No matter what he did, it seemed like he would end up making enemies.

So I put this question aside and stopped thinking about it.

Instead, he began to worry about the selection of a secretary.

-

After a few days, the special operations training team reopened.

The group of teachers from the Military Academy were once again loaned to the training team by a transfer order from the young commander.

This time, the instructors were already familiar with the place and automatically integrated into the facilities of the new camp without Xia Shu's instructions.

Among the large number of students who came this time, Anna was among them.

Since she came here to experience special warfare assessment training, Xia Shu didn't say much to her and directly put her in the team of trainees to participate in the training together.

Although the members of the training team and the special forces live in the same camp, the training of the two sides is separate.

Here, the students can also clearly see the gap between them and the official team members.

This will make training much more effective.

As for the Rabbit God, he arrived a little later because he had to hand over to his original troops.

As soon as she came, Xia Shu put her in the sniper special operations class without saying a word and asked her to start teaching sniper courses.

At the same time, Haruka and Smiley were also placed in the formal special forces by Xia Shu, replacing Zhanren and Jia who were about to go to the Lieutenant Academy.

Then a few days later, Zhan Ren, Jia and other young girls were sent to the Lieutenant Officer Academy after completing Xia Shu's special forces assessment requirements and began the first half of the officer course.

The trainees sent this time are all elite special forces soldiers who have completed the five-month training program.

I believe that with their strength, they will definitely stand out among the Lieutenant Officers Academy.

No matter how they learn in the military academy, they can be directly assigned back to the team and continue to participate in combat after returning.

At the same time, there will no longer be the same situation as Ning did back then, where he grabbed things with both hands and picked up sesame seeds and threw away watermelons.

Xia Shu also plans to incorporate this practice into the special forces training program.

Basically, girls must complete five months of special warfare training and pass the assessment to be eligible to study at the Lieutenant Academy.

The criteria for submitting the list will be based on the assessment scores and the assessment by the unit chief, with each accounting for half of the proportion.

In short, within the scope permitted by law, the immediate superior has the final right of interpretation.

That's it.

In addition, with the beginning of the new year, various war zones and troops have launched various important military activities of this year.

In addition to fighting on imaginary battlefields, what may be more important for active-duty female soldiers is promotion in military rank and transfer of positions.

As a result, various training teams began to recruit new students, and the assessment of soldiers' military ranks was gradually put on the agenda.

Military officer rank promotions are also carried out in the first two months of the year.

Many members of Xia Shu's special forces unit will also take part in this month's assessment.

Generally speaking, the rank promotion standard for officers on the imaginary battlefield is once a year.

Unless there is a special need or a serious mistake is made - once you pass the assessment, your military rank promotion will generally not be stuck for long.

Of course, this refers to promotions within a certain level, such as from lieutenant to captain, or from major to lieutenant colonel.

However, promotions from lieutenant to colonel, and from colonel to general, are not something that can be achieved by simply waiting for a long time.

There are many people like Doragon who have been stuck for several years or have never made any progress in their entire lives.

Xia Shu's lightning-fast promotion was obviously due to the requirements of her position.

Those second lieutenants who were in the same period as her would probably be promoted from second lieutenants to lieutenants during this period.

But Xia Shu was already a captain, so she had nothing to do with this assessment and promotion.

However, the next stage of study at the Officer Academy shouldn’t take too long.

Because the size of the special forces is expanding extremely rapidly.

There were already many subordinates of her rank in various departments, and she, a mere captain, was gradually losing control of the situation.

Whether for the future development of the special forces or Xia Shu's personal future, promotion to colonel is very necessary.

But before that, Xia Shu still has a lot of things to do.

For example, the planning of the new department, the subsequent special operations missions, and the independent parliamentary response of the special operations forces.

Before everything gets on track, Xia Shu obviously doesn't have half a year to spare to study at the Officer Academy.

So now Xia Shu can only overload the affairs of this rank level with the rank of captain.

Fortunately, the special forces are now completely under the name of Lieutenant General Qimingxing, and the young commander has given all his trust to Xia Shu.

Otherwise, Xia Shu really wouldn't be able to command an elite force at the regimental level as a small lieutenant.

900. Polar Operation Plan

There was actually no big deal about the rank promotions of officers in the special forces.

Except for those officers who are already captains, the assessments for other second lieutenants and first lieutenants are not that difficult.

Although they do not assess matters related to military skills, the specific assessment criteria are still the officers' understanding of grassroots leadership work.

Generally speaking, promotion from second lieutenant to lieutenant is not difficult.

That is to say, it tests the knowledge of leading troops at the squad and platoon levels.

It can be said that those who can be admitted to a military academy will not be stumped by this kind of assessment. It is equivalent to a free military rank assessment.

The promotion from lieutenant to captain might be a little more difficult because the experience of leading troops at the company level is not so easy to acquire.

However, a group of elite members of the special forces will not be stopped by such a simple assessment.

So in the end, most of the second lieutenants who reached the promotion time were promoted.

For example, there are girls like Smile, Nya and others.

Among the lieutenants, 70% to 80% were promoted.

For example, white gloves, lazy bear, etc.

At the same time, with the completion of the assessment for military rank promotion, Xia Shu couldn't wait to put the secret operation decided last year on the agenda.

But at this point, the so-called secret operation is no longer a secret.

Because the training program in the past few months is very clear, it is aimed at the snow.

As for the imaginary battlefield, there are only a few snow battles that can be felt in the flower area.

Combined with the polar operations conducted by Special Operations Team 1 last year, even a fool could guess where Xia Shu's target was.

But only the team members know about it, and it is kept completely confidential to the outside world.

Unless there is really a traitor in the special forces as Sheng said.

Otherwise, the polar forces in the Eagle District should have been completely unprepared for their plan.

Now that everyone knows the truth, Xia Shu doesn't plan to hide it anymore.

So after the training ended that day, Xia Shu gathered the captains of each team and all the members of the communications department, and went to the combat command center to plan the combat plan.

After lighting up the polar map on the platform, Xia Shu said first, "Then let's talk about your research results first, Communications Department."

Upon hearing this, the lark nodded and exhaled a holographic image.

This image is a small section of communication line, obviously the communication wire used in the imaginary battlefield.

At this time, someone remembered that when Xia Shu was in the polar region, he had someone cut some of the Eagle Zone's communication lines on the ground.

Now that I think about it, the girl from the Communications Department should have come up with some research results on this.

Then I heard Lark say, "This is the wired power used by the Eagle District, and it also has their communication standard. After research, we found that this type of wire cannot be buried in the soil or ice. In other words, to control costs, the Eagle District only laid this line on the surface. So, based on their ideas, we drew up several laying plans in the Eagle District's control area."

As he spoke, five possible cable laying plans were displayed on the map.

They all had one thing in common: the cables were laid out in a figure eight pattern around the Eagle Zone's control area, with two areas remaining blank.

"Explain it." Xia Shu pointed to a place on the map that was of particular interest.

"Well, let me first explain the reasoning behind this layout." Lark first revealed some red dots on the map. "These are reports from the Snow District of long-term personnel bases in the Eagle District. It's reasonable to assume these bases must have communication nodes. So based on these bases, we can make a preliminary prediction about the route plan."

Seeing everyone nod, Lark continued, "Thinking back to the last battle, there was a large-scale signal blocking. We speculate that the Eagle Zone must have used a large-scale signal blocking tower - this is the most energy-efficient, effective, and simplest shielding method.

"This type of shielding will create a few blind spots where radio can still be used. These are the blank areas along the route. This is because laying the lines this way is the most cost-effective. If I were to design a wired solution, I would definitely do it this way."

After hearing Lark's professional explanation, everyone expressed their conviction.

But White Gloves still asked another question, "Why are there five plans? Which one should we believe?"

"Oh, this one," Lark explained. "These five plans are the most effective, the most economical, the most cost-effective, the most expensive, and the most beautiful. I didn't know which one the Eagle District would use, so I just did them all."

Everyone was ashamed when they heard this, and Xia Shu quickly said, "Let's follow the design strategy with the highest cost-effectiveness."

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Lark withdrew the other four wired design plans.

Looking at the simple wired lines on the map, Xia Shu raised his head, gestured to Qingxian, and asked, "How do you think the tactics should be arranged?"

Qingxian thought for a moment, pointed out the areas where signal shielding towers might be located, and said, "I suggest not cutting off the power supply to the signal shielding towers, but cutting off their wired lines. This way, the Eagle District will be left without command. We can then defeat their garrisons one by one."

At this time, White Gloves also raised his hand.

Xia Shu gestured for her to speak, so she said, "Cutting off the power lines will definitely alert them, and they'll most likely shut down the signal tower. So I disagree with your statement that the Eagle Sector has lost command. Therefore, my opinion is to disperse our actions and defeat them simultaneously."

After Xiaobai finished speaking, he looked at Xia Shu.

Xia Shu thought for a moment and then asked, "Wouldn't it be too dangerous if we split up? How many enemies can each of your teams handle?"

The captains of each team were full of confidence upon hearing this, and said that as many as came from the Eagle District would die.

Xia Shu didn't comment, but just looked up and asked Viper, "How is the training of Team Three? Has their combat strength improved?"

Knowing that Xia Shu was worried about their team, Viper replied, "We've arranged extra training for the rookies since they came back. I can't say how strong they are now, but at least they're not at the bottom of the class."

It is true that what Xia Shu was worried about was the training level of Aier and the others.

However, during this period, Xia Shu also observed the training situation of the Nameless Team 3.

Since Viper said it with such confidence, Xia Shu believed it.

Now that the team's hard power has been improved, its ability to withstand pressure has also been greatly improved after being tempered in the war zone competition.

In addition, the venomous snake's temper has also been restrained -

From this point of view, the core combat power issues of the three nameless teams have been solved.

Putting aside the fact that Xiao Jue still cannot integrate into the special forces, at least they already have combat capabilities that are worth mentioning.

In this case, Xia Shu did not intend to exclude the Nameless Team 3 from the battle plan.

Instead, they will be treated as a team equal to other teams.

901. Codename "Operation Penguin"

Now that the combat status of each team was confirmed, Xia Shu no longer asked about their specific situation.

Xia Shu knew the strength of each team in the special forces.

Basically, they can easily destroy any living troops less than three times their number.

In order to inflict effective damage on them, at least ten times the strength of the regular troops would be needed to conduct a siege operation.

Xia Shu thought that it was impossible for the Eagle District to deploy troops in the polar region to reach this level, so he put aside his worries and began to think about an effective combat plan.
