My Military Career in a Parallel World

When it comes to the assignment of new recruits to companies, most companies have no say, and it really all depends on luck what kind of recruits they get.

Of course, a company commander who is a little bit ambitious would not want his soldiers to be as elite as possible.

Just because you can’t intervene openly doesn’t mean you can’t do something sneaky in secret.

Although the personal wishes of the vast majority of recruits will not affect the final assignment results, there are always a few exceptions.

New recruits with excellent grades and outstanding performance are valued and sought after by multiple companies.

Each of them is a company commander with a rank of at least captain, and they may even have the support of battalion commanders behind them. The people in charge of allocation in the regiment headquarters are too lazy to listen to their quibbles, and may even offend people, so it is not worth it for a new recruit.

At this time, the recruit's own opinion will have the final say.

Someone else specifically requested to join this company, and the company commander is willing to accept this soldier. I can't force him to be assigned to you...

This is also the reason why every time there are new recruits, each company will try their best to cram in squad leaders and platoon leaders.

If there is a good soldier in your class, you will basically have the chance as long as the company commander of the new recruits does not snatch him away.

It is not an easy job to be a company commander of a recruit company. You have to follow the recruits around every day and worry a lot. You also have to be careful all the time because these recruits might suddenly do something big to you. If there is no benefit, who would be willing to come?

Are you uncomfortable staying in the old unit?

However, in the past two years, after the chief of staff, who is a lieutenant colonel in the regiment, took over the police investigation company, he shamelessly went into the field himself, not only frantically poaching people from various companies, but also not sparing the recruit company...

What's more, this Chief of Staff Feng had met Jiang Chen before. As an old rival, how could Ge Hongtao, who had been poached several times, not have doubts in his heart?

Jiang Chen was recruited by Lu Ming himself. After he joined the army, his squad leader and platoon leader were all his own. It was almost time to harvest, but if someone else picked the peaches midway...

Ge Hongtao must have regretted so much that he banged his head against the wall!

But, then again.

After all, his opponent was the regiment's chief of staff, with the rank of lieutenant colonel, two levels higher than him. If he really shamelessly went to the regiment commander to ask for people, what could he, a small company commander, do?

Moreover, based on his understanding of Chief of Staff Feng, as long as Jiang Chen performed well enough, the other party was very likely to do such a thing.

So is Jiang Chen’s performance good enough?

of course!

At present, there is no recruit better than Jiang Chen in the entire recruit company!

Excellence here is not just about physical fitness. If we really compare physical fitness, Jiang Chen is not yet the best among the crowd. There are many people in the recruit company who can compete with him.

What really attracted Ge Hongtao to Jiang Chen was his growth rate and plasticity.

For almost all events, no matter how difficult they are, as long as this kid practices for a period of time, his results will improve by leaps and bounds.

One or two times it can be explained as a coincidence, saying that he is talented in a certain project, but if it is the same in all projects, then it cannot be explained by coincidence.

In addition, Jiang Chen's status as a 985 university student is a huge plus.

And there was also the second-class merit award some time ago!

To be honest, Ge Hongtao was not sure if he could keep Jiang Chen in his company by himself.

Fortunately, Ge Hongtao is not without support. Since he can't deal with the chief of staff, he will find someone who can deal with him!

So, when the second month in the recruit company was about to end and the recruits were about to take assessments and prepare for assignment to new companies, Ge Hongtao decisively found his own battalion commander.

Although the rank of his battalion commander was a little different from that of the lieutenant colonel of the chief of staff, they were both colonel-level officers and he was in the right. He was not afraid of the chief of staff using his power to suppress him even if the case reached the regiment commander.

After getting the promise from the battalion commander, Ge Hongtao decided to let go and do it with all his might.

It just so happened that after the police detective company failed in the last exercise, it made certain improvements to its tactics and strategies, and now it was in need of a sparring partner, and the regiment just happened to assign this task to the third company.

Then, there was what happened today.

Ge Hongtao said that Chief of Staff Feng was shameless and cruel, and even spared no recruits, but in fact he was not much better.

So, taking advantage of this opportunity, he immediately tried every means to rescue the people from his company.

Do you really think what happened during the day was just an accident?

This was all planned in advance by Ge Hongtao. Even if Jiang Chen hadn't happened, he would have found opportunities to set traps for the new recruits.

All the new recruits who have the confidence to stand up and accept the challenge are capable and are the best soldiers in the recruit company.

As a soldier fanatic, it would be strange if Ge Hongtao was not tempted.

However, this time, in order to secure the position of instructor of the recruit company for Lu Ming, he sacrificed some of the quota for selecting new recruits.

There is no other way. If the right way doesn't work, then naturally you have to think of some unorthodox ways.

This 400-meter obstacle course is a big pit.

Regardless of whether these recruits, including Jiang Chen, can improve their performance to two minutes within a week, he has a way to plant the impression in their minds that the Reconnaissance Company 3 is equal to awesome, equal to the ace, equal to the best soldier.

When the time comes to assign new recruits, if one of them gets carried away...

It is normal for young people to act impulsively. There have been similar examples in the past.

If he fails, he won't lose much, as long as Jiang Chen is not poached.

Why not give it a try? What if you succeed?

Who would complain about having few good soldiers under their command?

So Ge Hongtao always says that Chief of Staff Feng is not a good person and likes to poach people everywhere, but in fact, how much better can he be? He is just the pot calling the kettle black.

If Jiang Chen knew the calculations behind his own company commander, he would probably have to sigh that the heart of an officer is really dirty!

……

In the dream space, Jiang Chen temporarily put aside all other training. Apart from occasionally practicing some easier items as a adjustment, he spent the rest of his time on the 400-meter obstacle course.

The 400-meter obstacle race is a very classic training subject. From special forces and reconnaissance companies to local companies and armed police, all of them attach great importance to this event.

There is a saying that has been circulating in the army: It is better to run five kilometers than 400 meters.

The five kilometers here are not five kilometers of unarmed running, but five kilometers of armed cross-country running.

This shows how difficult the 400-meter obstacle race is.

Even though it's only 400 meters, the energy consumption of running one lap is no less than that of a 5-kilometer cross-country run. Moreover, because the distance is short and the speed is fast, a lot of physical strength is consumed in a short period of time, and the physical feeling is more obvious and intuitive.

Fortunately, Jiang Chen doesn't have to worry about physical strength in the dream space. Otherwise, it would be impossible to break through two minutes, let alone a week, even if it was another week.

Although Jiang Chen still had a big gap in physical fitness compared to the scouts of the third company, it was still no problem for him to complete the 400-meter obstacle course.

What remains is a matter of skills and experience, and this is exactly what Jiang Chen is least afraid of.

As long as the hard indicators are in place and with plenty of time, no matter how difficult the task is, it will not be a problem!
