My Military Career in a Parallel World

"Deputy...deputy squad leader?!" Jiang Chen was still in shock and hadn't come back to his senses.

Seeing him like this, Ge Hongtao smiled and nodded, and answered affirmatively: "Yes, deputy squad leader!"

"No, Captain, I'm the deputy squad leader, so what about Deputy Squad Leader Wang?!"

Although the time he spent in the reconnaissance company was not long, only about twenty days, the relationship between Jiang Chen and the members of Class 3 was no longer the same as before.

In particular, several veterans such as Tang Junjie and Hu Kai took great care of him.

Wang Jie, the deputy monitor, was nice to him in daily life, and Jiang Chen didn't want to replace someone else's position for no reason.

“Wang Jie, I am going to be transferred to the third platoon as squad leader.

Squad leader Zhang of the third platoon, seventh squad, will have his contract expire after the new year. He also told me clearly that he does not plan to stay in the team any longer and wants to transfer to civilian work and return to the local area.

I agreed. "

After hearing Ge Hongtao's explanation, a figure subconsciously emerged in Jiang Chen's mind.

Among the three platoons of the reconnaissance company, which platoon has the lowest presence? It is undoubtedly the third platoon.

It’s not that the third row is weaker than the first and second rows.

The combat effectiveness of the three platoons of the reconnaissance company has actually been in a relatively balanced state.

The first platoon has outstanding individual military qualities, the second platoon is good at coordination and tacit understanding, and the third platoon has the strongest intelligence gathering capabilities.

Unfortunately, in recent years, old soldiers have retired one after another, and there has been no fresh blood replenishment. In addition, with the establishment of the police detective company, due to various reasons, the strength of the third platoon has been in a state of continuous decline.

After all, intelligence gathering and reconnaissance are no different from other tasks and depend greatly on the personal qualities and experience of the soldiers.

Personal qualities are fine, but the key is experience, which cannot be acquired in a short period of time.

Several squad leaders of the third platoon are veteran squad leaders. Squad leader Zhang, whom Ge Hongtao just mentioned, is one of the few third-term veterans in the company.

The third stage is basically the limit for an ordinary soldier.

Unless it is a technical post or some other special post, it is very difficult for ordinary soldiers to renew their service for the fourth term.

This is also the biggest problem facing the reconnaissance company at present.

Twelve years does not mean he can stay if he wants to. Excellent veterans retire one after another, but there are no new recruits to replace them, so a decline in strength is inevitable.

No one is a fool. The wind of military reform has already started. Although Ge Hongtao is only a company commander and is not qualified to come into contact with such high-level things, it is not difficult for him to detect some subtle signs.

So, when Lu Ming proposed to switch to a political work position, he agreed without hesitation.

This further exacerbated the speed at which the third row's strength declined.

……

"In that case, then I have no problem, Captain!"

The opportunity came to him, so Jiang Chen naturally had no reason to refuse. After getting an accurate answer, he did not hesitate and agreed directly.

"Haha." Ge Hongtao smiled and patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder, and continued: "Don't worry, the deputy squad leader is just a transition for you. When you are almost adapted and come back from the training team, I will find an opportunity for you to be the squad leader!"

"Uh..." Jiang Chen secretly glanced at his company commander and inexplicably felt a sense of déjà vu.

Ge Hongtao now looks very similar to those bosses in his previous life who liked to make big promises for him.

Although Jiang Chen was somewhat tempted by his words, he didn't really believe them in his heart.

It was quite amazing that a private like him could become deputy squad leader in a reconnaissance company.

If I really become a squad leader, it is still a question whether I can control these arrogant and powerful soldiers under me.

Didn’t you see that even a strong man like Li Gang had to go through a lot of trouble when he first took office as squad leader?

What's more, he was just a small private.

However, Jiang Chen didn't know that Ge Hongtao had an even crazier plan in mind.

Not only do they want him to be a squad leader, they also want him to try to manage a platoon of soldiers.

However, the difficulty of realizing this idea is a bit too high. At least Jiang Chen’s current performance is far from enough.

"In fact, you just joined the army a few years late. If you had joined the army earlier, you wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble. A second-class merit would have satisfied the requirements for promotion."

"I think the current situation is pretty good. If you can't even lead a squad, forget about leading a platoon or a company. It will also save us from bringing shame to our reconnaissance company."

"Haha, that's true!"

The two chatted for a while until the truck of the Second Battalion drove into the training ground, and then they stopped chatting.

"By the way, Captain, there is one more thing..." Jiang Chen suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said quickly.

"If you have something to say, you have to fart!"

"Well, Captain, my backpack and equipment are still buried on the side of the road. Could you please stop the car for a while?" Jiang Chen said shamelessly.

If Jiang Chen hadn't just remembered it, he would have almost forgotten about it.

Now, it would definitely be too late to run over to get it, and he didn't want to run back, so he could only ask the company commander for help.

Fortunately, the place where the things were buried was right next to the gravel road at the foot of the mountain, which was exactly the only way to go down the mountain.

"What have you been doing so far, boy?" Ge Hongtao scolded with a smile.

However, he finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, sit in the passenger seat with me later!"

"Yes!" Jiang Chen saluted quickly.

"Get in the car!"

Ge Hongtao naturally took the co-pilot seat, and then with an order, more than 40 soldiers on the training ground swiftly boarded the vehicle.

The vehicle slowly drove out of the camp gate and headed towards the highway at the foot of the mountain along the gravel road that Jiang Chen had come along during the day.

"Captain, this is it!"

……

At 8:30 in the evening, the vehicle arrived at the production company. The kitchen staff had already received the news and had prepared dinner for everyone.

After eating and drinking, Ge Hongtao did not make things difficult for everyone. He ordered them to disperse, take care of their personal hygiene, and then rest and sleep. Everything will be discussed tomorrow.

Even the daily roll call and small exercises before bed were exempted.

This is a benefit exclusive to the winner. The other 80-odd people who failed the training are not so lucky.

If you can't get back before the lights are turned off at night, you can't even sleep or have dinner.

Even if I could make it back in time, it would probably be after eleven or twelve o'clock by the time I finished my work and went to bed.

These two days have involved armed swimming, crossing mountains and hills, as well as intelligence reconnaissance training and camouflage training.

I hid in the woods for twelve hours. If I didn't tidy up properly, I wouldn't be able to sleep well.

About forty people, each holding a small yellow basin and wearing only a pair of large shorts, squatted in a row by the river. Some of the animals that were not afraid of the cold simply jumped directly into the water.

Some are taking a bath, some are doing laundry, and they are all busy and happy.

The production company naturally has a water room and a bathhouse.

However, everyone still prefers to wash in the river.

Without him.

Spacious!

No need to queue!

After cleaning themselves and changing into the clean clothes they brought, the group carried small yellow basins and marched in neat steps towards the temporary training ground that had not yet been completed in the camp.

In order to avoid his clothes being coordinated, Jiang Chen chose a remote location when hanging them up and marked his clothes.

They returned to their respective tents. After two days and two nights of running around, everyone was exhausted. No one was in the mood to talk or chat. They just lay down on their beds and fell into a deep sleep.

Even Jiang Chen did not choose to start training immediately after entering the dream space. Instead, he went back to the dormitory and had a good sleep on the bunk bed.

Sleeping in a dream, is this considered a bug?

Jiang Chen fell asleep while thinking inexplicably.

……

Jiang Chen slept very soundly, and it took him more than ten hours to wake up.

After waking up again, Jiang Chen did not start training immediately. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the bed, summarizing what he had gained during this period and thinking about the next training plan and schedule.

Let’s talk about the gains first.

After the exercises some time ago, as well as the intelligence gathering and camouflage training over the past two days, Jiang Chen learned a lot.

Moreover, these are the professional skills he is most in need of at the moment.

Observation/surveillance, intelligence gathering, camouflage and concealment, disguised reconnaissance...

There are other seemingly insignificant but actually very important skills.

For example, Zhang Ming demonstrated endurance and the ability to draw maps quickly.

Hu Kai's ability to recognize disguises.

Han Li's use of traps such as grenades and landmines.

Li Gang and Wang Jie organized and analyzed intelligence and command capabilities.

Tang Junjie's ability to shoot while on the move and to weave through obstacles.

There is also Fang Zheng's use of heavy firepower weapons and so on.

Even Su Yu and Lu Xingwang each have their own areas of expertise.

Su Yu has a calm personality and is good at observation.

Lu Xingwang excels in physical fitness, and performs particularly well when using heavy firepower such as squad machine guns for suppression.

Of course, both of them still have a long way to go before they can become qualified scouts.

Jiang Chen won't waste his time on them for the time being.

After talking about the gains, the next step is to plan the daily schedule and training plan.

First of all, physical fitness must not be neglected. As long as there is room for improvement, Jiang Chen will continue to practice.

Secondly, the same is true for basic skills such as fighting and shooting.

At least one-third of your time every day should be spent on physical training.

For basic items such as shooting and fighting, you must set aside some time every day to practice them.

Jiang Chen was very clear about one thing.

Even with the help of the dream space, it is impossible for me to be perfect.

People have limited energy and different talents.

Although he has trained ten times more than others, it is still unrealistic to make up for the gap in talent.

However, Jiang Chen will not give up easily.

He doesn't really need to be perfect, he just needs to master all these skills.

Then, lay a solid foundation, develop the areas in which you excel to the extreme, and combine these skills. The combat power that can be unleashed will definitely be beyond imagination.

There is no doubt that Jiang Chen's future path will be to become an officer/commander.

However, becoming an officer/commander does not mean giving up training or personal military qualities.

It is true that many commanders and troop leaders can no longer devote their energy to the development of their personal abilities as they did before because of daily trivialities.

However, Jiang Chen has a dream space. He can handle the affairs within the company during the day and work overtime and train hard at night.

No delays in any aspect.

Best of both worlds!

Thinking of what the company commander had said to him before and his future plans, Jiang Chen decided that in addition to basic training, he would focus his main energy on learning combat command and intelligence analysis.

These are things that a commander must be proficient in, and Jiang Chen will not give up because of fear.

As for other skills, you can develop them one by one slowly.

Anyway, he has plenty of time. If one day doesn't work, then two days. If two days doesn't work, then a month. If one month doesn't work, then a year...

There are 365 days in a year, which is more than 8,700 hours. With a time ratio of 10 to 1, it is just a little more than a month in reality.

There is always a time to finish learning!

After making the arrangements, Jiang Chen did not delay any further.

During this period, he had been either doing drills or training day and night, and he hadn't enjoyed the feeling of working hard for a long time.

Why do I feel an inexplicable sense of anticipation in my heart?

Jiang Chen wondered if his brain had developed a perverted and masochistic tendency because of the problem with time travel?

It was obvious that I was a lazy otaku in my previous life, but how come I became a hardcore player in this new world?

If I don't train overtime for a day, I feel itchy all over.

No, I can’t wait any longer, let’s start the hard training!

Jiang Chen jumped off the bed and moved forward to the time of the re-inspection of the recruit company.

I haven't trained for so long, I need to beat some newbies first to get a feel for it.

Otherwise, Jiang Chen was really afraid that he would awaken some special SM attributes.

Things are different now. If Jiang Chen gets serious now, it would be very easy for him to deal with a knife-wielding gangster within three moves.

However, thinking about the big boss Li Gang behind him, Jiang Chen decided to play with his opponent for a while longer.

Just when Jiang Chen was training hard.

On the other side, the other soldiers of the Third Company who came back on bus 11 finally appeared outside the gate of the production company on time.

God knows what they have been through.

After a day and night without food, water or sleep, we finally rested a little at the second battalion camp and ate something to replenish our energy. Then we had to march more than ten kilometers and swim armed...

It is no exaggeration to say that they lost half their lives after this trip.

Fortunately, Ge Hongtao also knew that too much is as bad as too little, so he did not continue to make things difficult for them.

After checking the time and giving them another 5,000-word summary report, he let everyone go.

By this time, the food in the kitchen had already gone cold.

No one complained. What they had was good enough and no one dared to ask for more.

After a quick gobble, the food was gone.

After cleaning the cafeteria, everyone took the time to take care of their personal hygiene.

Every second of sleep you can get saves you!

Although it is their turn to stay in the production company to help tomorrow, which is no different from a vacation, but don't forget that they still have to write a summary report. Add the 5,000 words of the previous intelligence reconnaissance, and the total is a fucking 10,000 words.

Not to mention, among these people there are forty-six people who were previously exposed during intelligence reconnaissance.

They have to add another 3,000 words of self-criticism!

Just thinking about it makes me feel overwhelmed, it would be better to train them to death!

Obviously, this was a method Ge Hongtao used specifically to punish them.

This group of guys, if you ask them to practice more, they all say no, but the actual effect is very limited.

It's impossible to practice to death, right?

Compared to holding a gun, holding a pen is obviously more intimidating.

A 10,000-word summary report plus a 3,000-word self-criticism is enough to make them feel uncomfortable for a while.

Moreover, this is not the end. Do you really think that writing a self-criticism and summary report is enough?

nonexistent!

Who is Gekeng?

No problem, I will find problems to train you.

Now that we have the evidence, how can we let it go so easily?

The review and summary report are just the appetizer...

——(To be continued)

PS: Thank you for the great care from Mr. Xiao of Beicheng. I will try to code out an extra chapter tomorrow.

Hope I don't get caught...
