My Military Career in a Parallel World

As soon as he closed his eyes, Jiang Chen couldn't wait to enter the dream space.

Two days of personal experience made him understand one thing.

Although his current military qualities seemed good, he was still too young compared to these old scouts.

Because of the emergency assembly last night, he didn't have much training at all. Although there was a lunch break during the day, two hours was only enough to do anything.

Jiang Chen must seize every possible moment to make himself stronger.

After spending a whole night in the dream space, the wakeup call sounded on time at six in the morning, and the dormitory building, which had been extremely quiet just now, suddenly became lively.

Two minutes later, all 128 men in the company gathered downstairs.

The morning exercises are still the same as before, basically no different from those in the recruit company, except for the amount of training.

On the way back, Hu Kai couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hey, why didn't I see the guys from the first and second companies today? It's ok that they didn't come to the evening roll call last night, but why didn't they show up for morning exercises?"

Hearing his question, deputy squad leader Wang Jie pointed his lips in Jiang Chen's direction and said, "Why do you say that? Why else can it be? Their two companies have recruited a lot of new recruits this year. They won't come here to cause trouble until those new recruits are trained."

"Okay, I almost forgot about this. I was thinking of taking this opportunity to teach those guys from the Second Company a lesson. They are the ones who usually yell the loudest!"

"Haha, just because you're stupid doesn't mean others are stupid too. Just wait and see, those new recruits have suffered in the past one or two months."

After hearing the conversation between the two, especially remembering that Zhang Meng seemed to have been assigned to the reconnaissance camp, Jiang Chen felt inexplicably guilty.

No one knew better than him how difficult it was to get along with these veteran soldiers in the reconnaissance company. He had also personally experienced how terrifying the training workload for scouts was.

From what the deputy squad leader said, it seemed that because of him, the recruits from the other two companies of the reconnaissance battalion would probably have to spend their future in endless training.

Alas, I would rather die than have my friend die.

Jiang Chen didn't have any better solution for this, and could only mourn for Zhang Meng in his heart.

……

"Hurry up... run! You just finished breakfast and you're already out of energy?!

Sweat more in peacetime so you can bleed less in battle. Speed ​​up and run!!!"

As expected, the main class after breakfast was still held in the mountains outside the camp.

Two people worked in a group, carrying a log that was almost as thick as an adult's thigh, and started the devilish training in the mountains.

Carry a log and run cross-country for five kilometers.

If this happened in an ordinary company, I'm afraid people would be trained to death!

With Jiang Chen's physical condition, he felt as if his body was hollowed out after running five kilometers. His shoulders were extremely sore, and a layer of skin under his clothes was worn off.

I don't know who found the wood. Not only is it heavy, but they also didn't know how to deal with the extremely rough bark.

Especially on this kind of rugged mountain road, the log on his shoulders would shake with every step he took. It was so painful that Jiang Chen's shoulders and back of the neck were bleeding after one trip.

When Jiang Chen heard that they were going into the mountains again, he secretly stuffed two sanitary napkins left over from the training of the new recruits into his pocket. However, just as he was about to put them on his shoulders, he was stopped by Li Gang.

In his words, when you are a soldier or a scout, you should not be afraid of hardship, fatigue or injury. If you don't get calloused now, you will suffer in the future.

"I'm dying, I'm dying. I thought I could live a few more days. Why didn't the company commander stay at the regiment headquarters for a few more days?"

Throwing the log off his shoulder, Fang Zheng rubbed his reddened shoulders and the back of his neck while complaining.

"That's right, why is the recruit company only three months? It would be great if it could be a few months longer." Others also echoed.

Although they are all veteran scouts, no one wants to be trained like a dog every day.

"Okay, all of you stop grumbling. It's almost the end of the year, so it's normal to train harder."

After hearing what Wang Jie said, the few people who were still complaining immediately quieted down.

Jiang Chen looked a little strange and couldn't help asking Tang Junjie beside him, "Brother Tang, what does the deputy class leader mean? What do you mean it's almost the end of the year?"

Tang Junjie, who was rubbing his shoulders, smiled and explained, "Our division has two major operations at the end of each year.

The first is the soldier assessment at the end of each year, and the second is..."

Tang Junjie glanced in the direction of the company commander and said in a low voice: "If nothing unexpected happens, our division will hold a large-scale exercise in one or two months at most.

During the big exercise last year, our company commander..."

"Hey! Old Tang, if you have nothing to do, I can let you carry the log and run another lap by yourself!"

Just when Tang Junjie was talking about the key point, the voice of squad leader Li Gang suddenly came from behind him. Tang Junjie quickly stopped talking and put on a smiling face to beg for mercy: "No, no, no, squad leader, I'm too talkative, I'm too talkative!"

After teaching Tang Junjie a lesson, Li Gang turned around and looked at Jiang Chen.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen quickly pretended that it had nothing to do with him, smiled awkwardly and prepared to leave.

"Well, squad leader, I'll go take care of my wound first, you guys chat, you guys chat..."

After saying that, Jiang Chen ran away without looking back.

"Hmph, you're a smart kid!"

"Old Tang, you too, why are you bringing this up with the new recruits? Do you really think it's a good thing?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Junjie couldn't help but think of what happened during last year's exercise, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face.

"It's because this kid is so abnormal that I almost forgot he is a new recruit." Tang Junjie muttered softly.

Speaking of the exercise, Tang Junjie's face couldn't help but look a little ugly.

They have been the Blues for two consecutive years. If they are the Blues again this year, it goes without saying that they will be bullied and bullied like in the previous two years.

Especially since they suffered a big loss last year, if they can't get back on track this year...

Soldiers attach the most importance to collective honor.

No soldier would allow his honor to be tarnished.

Even if it's just a drill.

Seeing Tang Junjie's uncertain expression, Li Gang guessed what he was thinking.

"Okay, don't think too much. We have no say in the exercise."

After a pause, Li Gang lowered his voice and said, "However, the company commander said that this year's exercise may change. When the time comes, our chance for revenge will come!"

"Really?!" Tang Junjie's eyes suddenly widened.

"Don't be alarmed. This matter has not been confirmed yet. The company commander is just guessing."

Hearing that it was just a guess, Tang Junjie's eyes, which had been shining, dimmed instantly.

"but……"

Unexpectedly, Li Gang suddenly changed the subject and continued, "Why do you think those guys in the police detective company are training so hard? Some time ago, they even asked that unit to train with them and asked us to help."

Hearing this, how could Tang Junjie not understand what it meant? His dull eyes lit up again.

My originally tired body was now rejuvenated.

"This matter is still unresolved, don't make a fuss about it!"

Before leaving, Li Gang did not forget to give some advice.

"Yes, squad leader, you know I'm the most tight-lipped one!"

"Get lost, you still have the nerve to say that, your mouth is like the waist of a cotton trouser, I won't hesitate to say anything to you!"

"Hehe, accident, accident...

But, squad leader, when did you learn to speak Northeastern dialect? "

After hearing what Tang Junjie said, Li Gang was also stunned.

That’s right, when will a person from Anhui Province like me learn to speak Northeastern dialect?

Li Gang couldn't help but think of Chu Fei and Li Qiang.

Needless to say, I was definitely led astray by these two guys.

This is indeed the case. Not only him, but all the new recruits in Class 5 were led astray by Li Qiang.

To be precise, it was Li Qiang who led Chu Fei astray first, and then Chu Fei led everyone else astray.

When they returned, they were still carrying logs. In Ge Hongtao's words, "The logs are also the property of the army. The comrades in the kitchen team carried them back from the mountains with great difficulty. What if there is no firewood and the whole company cannot have food?"

Although, everyone knew what happened to these logs, as the ghosts' kitchen team carried them back from the mountains, how could they not know that the kitchen team had so much free time.

Besides, there are only seven people in the kitchen team. Can they carry dozens of logs back from the mountains at one time?

Wasn't this something that a company commander carried back from the mountains when he led his team in training a few days ago? How come it became something from the kitchen when it came into your mouth?

But, since the company commander had said so, what could they do? They just had to carry it back...

Others may not know what kind of person Ge Keng is, but how could they not know?

If they dare to put down these logs today, I believe the company commander will ask the kitchen staff to cut off their food supplies at night.

……

At noon, after lunch.

There was still some time before lunch break, and Jiang Chen planned to take this opportunity to ask Tang Junjie more about spoken English.

Last night in the dream space, Jiang Chen would take out an English book to read whenever he had free time. However, oral English cannot be learned just by reading.

The army required the ability to converse fluently in English, so he had to find another way.

However, just as Jiang Chen stood up with his English book, squad leader Li Gang suddenly said, "Oh, I almost forgot. It's almost the middle of the month. Jiang Chen, don't read other books these days. Use all your rest time to read that wilderness survival manual."

"Ah?" Jiang Chen was stunned, not understanding what the squad leader meant.

"Yes, it's only a week until the middle of the month, and we'll have to eat dirt again!" Fang Zheng, who was reading a book on reconnaissance theory, collapsed like a deflated ball when he heard this.

The same thing happened to Lu Xingwang and Su Yu. When they heard the word "middle of the moon", their faces fell.

Jiang Chen was even more confused.

What's going on? Any problems in the middle of the month?

Finally, Zhang Ming, who was writing or drawing something nearby, looked up and explained, "The reconnaissance battalion holds field survival training at least once a month, at irregular times and locations."

As he spoke, Zhang Ming pointed to the forest outside the window and said, "See the forest outside the window? The specific time and place will depend on where we draw lots.

The distance is far, so it will take longer..."

After Zhang Ming finished speaking, Tang Junjie continued with a smile: "Let me add one more thing. No matter how far the distance is, we are only allowed to bring one day's worth of water and dry food. After that, we have to rely on ourselves."

"..."

After listening to their explanations, Jiang Chen instantly understood why Fang Zheng and the others had such expressions.

Although he had never experienced it personally, he had watched many videos about survival in the wilderness in his previous life.

Jiang Chen could guess with his heels that there was a 100% chance that he would have to eat bugs again on this trip!

Thinking of the feeling of eating insects for the first time in the recruit company, the hairs on Jiang Chen's arms stood up involuntarily.

Moreover, Li Gang had not asked them to eat them raw before, considering that they were new recruits. But now that they are in the reconnaissance company, it is hard to say.

Thinking of the feeling of those big, fat, white, twisting worms exploding in his mouth, Jiang Chen could no longer help feeling nauseous.

Later, Jiang Chen asked some more questions about wilderness survival training.

Tang Junjie and Zhang Ming, several veteran soldiers, did not hide anything and told everything they knew.

According to them, although it is said to be randomly placed, the actual range is that large.

After all, it is impossible to let them go out for field training for ten days or half a month at a time.

Moreover, now is not the future. The forest is not as peaceful as in the future. The famous Beidou satellite system has not been popularized. If something goes wrong, not to mention Ge Hongtao, even the battalion commander Lei Zhenjun and even the regiment commander and political commissar cannot afford it.

In addition, this is not the first time that similar training has been conducted. Veterans of the reconnaissance company like Li Gang and Wang Jie are very familiar with the situation in the surrounding woods.

It may be nonsense to say that you can find the way with your eyes closed, but it is very clear where there is water, where there is food, where there is a village, etc.

At the end, Tang Junjie whispered to Jiang Chen not to forget to bring money.

At first Jiang Chen didn't realize what he meant.

Didn’t I tell you? What’s the point of bringing money during wilderness survival training?

However, looking at the two people's meaningful expressions, Jiang Chen suddenly had an idea and figured out the key.

Strong military chariot!

The legendary powerful military vehicle with eyes that are as omnipresent as radar!

I almost forgot about this. I have to bring more money with me when the time comes. The reward for the third-class merit last time will come in handy!

In the afternoon, there was no more training in the woods. Everyone was taken to an inconspicuous open space at the edge of the camp.

For some reason, Jiang Chen felt uncomfortable looking at this place.

It hasn’t rained these days, so why is the ground all muddy?

Before he could figure it out, Li Gang announced the answer the next second.

"It's still the same old rules. We will do combat training in pairs."

"Do you choose your own opponents, or do you want a random draw?"

As soon as Li Gang finished speaking, Jiang Chen felt a pair of eyes falling on him. He subconsciously turned his head and looked. Who else could it be but Lu Xingwang?

It seems that this kid is still a little unconvinced!

Their eyes met, and Jiang Chen's lips curled up slightly.

Come to think of it, I am just a new recruit who has just joined the company, and Lu Xingwang is a veteran who has been in the reconnaissance company for two years. It would be strange if he could be convinced.

At this time, Jiang Chen also understood why Lu Xingwang had not caused him any trouble in the past few days. He was probably waiting for this moment.

The good thing about the military camp is that most of the grudges are exposed out in the open, and very few people would stab others in secret.

However, having said that, if he really dares to choose him, Jiang Chen doesn't mind teaching him another lesson!
