My Military Career in a Parallel World

"Push harder! Are you guys playing house?!"

On the training ground, the recruits were holding wooden spikes and conducting stabbing training in groups of two.

Even though the wooden stick was wrapped with cloth, it still hurt terribly when it stabbed into the body. After a short while, the recruits were all grimacing in pain.

Even so, Li Gang still shouted at them to push harder and harder.

As for the protective gear...

what is that?

Fortunately, this kind of training did not last long. After practicing for about ten minutes, Li Gang stopped them when he felt it was enough.

"Ten minutes. Rest if you need to, go to the bathroom if you need to. Then continue the assassination training in ten minutes."

Hearing that they could finally take a break, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They either rubbed their bodies with gritted teeth, or limped and supported each other to the shade of the trees, took down the water bottles hanging on the branches and took a big gulp.

"Qiangzi, you're too ruthless. Can't you be gentler? My thighs are bruised."

Chu Fei rolled up his trouser legs, and a bruise as big as a fist came into view. He could feel a piercing pain when he touched it lightly.

"Damn it, it's as if you didn't do such a ruthless thing. My chest still hurts!" Li Qiang also pulled open his shirt and took a look. There was also a fist-sized red spot on his chest.

The others were not much better off, all of them had injuries of varying degrees.

Even Jiang Chen couldn't escape.

In addition to the scars left from the previous sparring with Li Gang, there were two new bruises on his arms, and his back was severely whipped by Zhang Meng with a wooden spike, and it still hurts.

However, after being in the army for so long, everyone has actually adapted to this pace of life.

Compared to the wounds of all sizes that I got during tactical crawling and the baptism of medical alcohol, it was just a little bruising and redness and swelling. I went back at night and rubbed it with safflower oil, and I was almost fine when I woke up the next day.

After a while, I felt that the pain was not so severe and we started chatting again.

As for the topic of conversation, it was naturally the bayonet in hand.

Although they had conducted two assassination training exercises some time ago, the bayonets they used were plastic toys.

But today is different. Now they have real bayonets installed on the tips of their guns. The only difference is that they are not sharpened.

"Hey, do you think the bayonets we will be given later will be the legendary three-edged bayonets?"

Although there are not so many military films and TV dramas nowadays, everyone still knows about the famous three-edged bayonet.

Especially the scene in the Hong Kong movie "Bodyguard from the South China Sea" where Zou Zhaolong wields a three-edged bayonet to fight against Jet Li, which adds a touch of mystery to this bayonet.

"Three-edged military bayonet?! That shouldn't be possible. Isn't this thing banned internationally?!"

"Yes, I heard that they came here because of the materials for casting triangular bayonets or something. Anyway, they said that it was highly poisonous..."

"Yes, yes, yes, I've heard of it too. And the wounds pierced by the three-edged military spikes cannot be sutured, so it is banned internationally..."

Everyone was talking at once, expressing their own opinions.

Jiang Chen had heard many similar stories and rumors when he was a child. For a while, the triangular bayonet was said to be very powerful, and many people even believed that the victory in the Vietnam War was due to the deterrence of the triangular bayonet.

However, as information flow becomes more and more developed and he is exposed to more and more knowledge, Jiang Chen also understands that these are just the results of the fantasies and blind guesses of a group of ignorant people. The real situation cannot be said to be completely unrelated, but it can only be said to be completely wrong.

Li Gang, who was drinking water nearby, was also amused by the conversation of the recruits and almost spit out a mouthful of water.

"Ahem... Where did you hear these rumors? If the Triangular Bayonet is really as powerful as you say, how could we give up the equipment just because of an international ban?!

The atomic bomb is so powerful, and the international community is calling for its ban every day, but we still equip it anyway!"

"what?!"

The recruits all opened their mouths wide, having never expected Li Gang to say that.

After calming down his breathing, Li Gang said with a smile: "How about this, if there are no problems with your assassination training later, after the training, I can take you to see the true appearance of the three-edged military bayonet on the spot!"

"Really?!" Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this, including Jiang Chen.

Although he knew that the rumors about the triangular bayonet were all lies, it didn't mean that Jiang Chen was not interested or curious about this famous bayonet.

"Well, when the uniforms were replaced a few years ago, some of the discarded three-edged bayonets were sent to the recruit company for daily assassination training. The armory should still have some of them."

With the three-edged military bayonet hanging in front of them, everyone's enthusiasm for training was immediately aroused.

Since they were given guns, the recruits have never come into contact with new weapons and equipment. Even the bayonets used for assassination were unsharpened iron sheets. Now they can finally come into contact with new equipment, the famous three-edged bayonet. How can everyone not be interested?

Jiang Chen and others were still training. Lei Zhenjun and the other man next to them watched for a while and then left.

They also have to go back to discuss the assignment of new recruits.

In addition to Jiang Chen, who must be won, the two also want to recruit as many potential recruits as possible.

Although recruits who are too tall are not suitable to become scouts, this is not absolute. Among the nearly 400 people in the reconnaissance battalion, there are still many soldiers who are over 1.8 meters tall.

As long as you perform well enough, you don't have to worry about other rules and regulations. Needless to say, someone will give you the green light.

"Captain, here are the profiles of several new recruits with relatively good performance. In Li Gang's class, besides Jiang Chen, this Li Qiang is also good, but his height of 1.9 meters is a bit too tall. And this Zhang Meng..."

"By the way, I asked the second platoon to make a bet with the new recruits. I thought it would be a good bet, but now it seems like there might be an opportunity. Maybe we can get a few more good soldiers for our battalion."

Ge Hongtao then expressed his thoughts.

According to his original idea, he wanted to use this incident to plant a seed in the hearts of the new recruits.

As a soldier geek who can compete with the chief of staff, Ge Hongtao has a very accurate grasp of the psychology of these young boys.

Especially for those new recruits who perform well, as long as we let them know the deeds of the scouts and give them a little hint of the special forces, there is no need to worry that these guys will not be fooled.

Admiring the strong is the nature of all living things.

For young people, especially capable young people, in addition to admiring the strong, they also hope to become this strong person themselves.

In addition to being the tip of a knife, scouts also have a well-known nickname in the army.

Special Forces Reserve!

Special forces are elusive and it is difficult for ordinary soldiers to get in touch with them. Many people have even served in the army for several years without ever hearing the name of special forces.

As the earliest established force that has been fighting on the front line, the C Army had already established the prototype of a special forces unit when the first commander of the C Army was in office a long time ago.

He then went through the Vietnam War training and trained a large number of soldiers with rich combat experience.

Especially the scouts. At that time, any company of the C Army would have several qualified scouts.

After the war, Army C integrated and selected these scouts for training. Some of them returned to their status as ordinary soldiers, while others formed reconnaissance companies and battalions under various units.

The best and most outstanding soldiers disappeared from the public eye and formed a special forces unit called "Wolf Fang".

The backbone of the Wolf Fang Special Forces is the predecessor of the special forces left by the first commander of the C Army, a special forces team called "Liangshan" whose name only exists in archival records.

It is precisely because of these prerequisites that among all the military-level units in the country, except for the special unit that does not even have a name and is affiliated with the Capital Military Region with special care, the Wolf Fang of the C Army is undoubtedly the strongest special force.

Also for this reason, the special forces are not so mysterious within the C Army. Every year they publicly recruit soldiers from various reconnaissance companies in their military region.

Soldiers who are interested in participating in the training only need to fill out an application form, and then pass the test within their own company before they can go to Langya for training.

Although, due to confidentiality regulations, we cannot reveal anything about Langya to the new recruits, but it is not against the rules to reveal some stories about the special forces indirectly.

Because, even if they don't say it, these new recruits can find out about the existence of special forces through other channels.

For example, games.

For example, novels...

Therefore, Ge Hongtao was confident that as long as he asked the soldiers in the second row to reveal a little bit about the special forces when they were interacting with the recruits.

Those few recruits who signed up for the bet would definitely be attracted, and when they were asked for their opinions on assigning their next company, they would express their desire to go to the reconnaissance battalion.

Originally, Ge Hongtao planned to let the veterans under his command focus on describing the deeds of the Third Reconnaissance Company.

But not anymore.

It’s not that he had a change of heart, but Ge Hongtao was worried that the battalion commander would compete with him for the man. Even if Lei Zhenjun himself did not die, it was hard to say for the other two reconnaissance company commanders.

Therefore, it is better to give them some benefits to shut them up.

"Haha, I knew you would be restless. You finally came to the recruit company, but you took away a new recruit. How could you possibly satisfy your appetite? As expected..."

After taking a quick look at the recruit files in his hand, Lei Zhenjun couldn't help but smile.

This is why he had to ask Ge Hongtao to come and lead the new recruits this year.

In terms of combat command, the three company commanders under him are evenly matched and each has their own strengths, but when it comes to the vision of selecting soldiers and the ability to manage soldiers, it has to be the third company commander Ge Hongtao.

The Chief of Staff was such a powerful figure, there was no one in the entire 228th Regiment whom he wanted to poach but could not. However, he fell into trouble with Ge Hongtao.

After hearing about the failure of the police and detective company's exercise, he was a little worried that the recruit company would fail again this time. Now it seems...

Hehe, it's a good thing that I was prepared in advance and sent Ge Hongtao, this hedgehog, over to lead the new recruits. Otherwise, if it were someone else, let alone getting a few more good soldiers, it would be hard to say whether I could keep Jiang Chen, this precious treasure.

The two were discussing the assignment of new recruits to companies. Jiang Chen and the others had already finished their training and were pestering Li Gang to take them to see the three-edged military bayonet.

Li Gang did not break his promise. After returning to the dormitory, he borrowed a three-edged bayonet from the armory.

"This is the three-edged military bayonet?!"

"Captain, you said this is not poisonous, but why is it silvery white, unlike ordinary metals?"

Everyone looked around the triangular bayonet, and were particularly curious about its unique color.

Facing everyone's curiosity, Li Gang responded one by one: "Haha, this is not poison, and there is nothing coated on it. It is just a process used to produce three-edged military bayonets.

Have you heard of chrome plating?

This thing is a very common craft..."

As he spoke, Li Gang took the Type 81 rifle beside him and removed the upper receiver cover, pointing to the frame which was also silver-white.

"Look, it's also silvery white inside. Can you say it's also poisonous?"

"Including the muzzle, it is also made using chrome plating technology." Li Gang pointed to the muzzle again.

"Actually, I'm not sure what this thing is used for, but it seems to prevent rust or something like that."

After discussing the question of whether the triangular bayonet was poisonous, Li Gang began to answer the next question from the recruits, which was also what everyone was most concerned about.

Are wounds caused by triangular bayonets difficult to suture?

Li Gang pulled out the unsharpened bayonet from his waist and placed it next to the three-edged military bayonet as a reference.

"Chu Fei!"

"To!"

"Go and get the steamed buns that Fatty hid this morning." Li Gang ordered.

"Yes!"

Although he didn't understand what Li Gang was going to do, Chu Fei still obeyed the order, quickly ran to the cabinet, and took out the steamed buns that Sun Weichen had hidden.

As for why Li Gang knew that there were steamed buns in Sun Weicheng's cabinet...

There was nothing strange about this. Everyone in the class knew that Sun Weicheng would secretly hide one or two steamed buns or dumplings every morning and evening when he had dinner. As long as it was not during the housekeeping inspection, Li Gang would turn a blind eye.

Anyway, with Sun Weichen's personality, he would not waste the food. He could just hide some of it. There was no need to pursue it too closely.

Taking the steamed bun handed to him by Chu Fei, Li Gang stabbed the bun on both sides with two different bayonets.

"Can you tell the difference between these two bayonets?"

Upon hearing this, everyone came over and looked curiously at the steamed bun in Li Gang's hand.

There were two wounds. The wound caused by the sword-shaped stab was a typical "丨" wound, which was not too surprising. However, the wound caused by the triangular bayonet was not the "*" as everyone imagined, but was closer to a circular cylinder.

"In terms of wounds, wounds caused by the three-edged bayonet are indeed more difficult to suture, but..."

Li Gang changed the subject and continued, "Even during the Anti-Japanese War decades ago, as long as there were sufficient medicines, even more serious gunshot wounds could be treated, not to mention the wounds caused by the three-edged military bayonet!

Therefore, your so-called three-edged military bayonet is banned internationally because the wounds it causes are difficult to heal and suture. This is totally unreasonable and makes no sense at all!"
