Soldiers Assault: Starting from the 7th Steel Company

Chapter 76 They Are All Soldiers I Underestimated
Chen Jiang's physical fitness was already very good, and with the support of the system, his recovery speed far exceeded the doctor's expectations. After only a week, not only did the swelling and bruises completely disappear, but even his ability to move was restored to normal.

This made his attending physician sigh: After all, he is a soldier of the special operations brigade, and this young man is in really good health!

It happened that Yuan Lang came to pick him up from the hospital and took him to handle the relevant personnel change procedures.

Sitting in Yuan Lang's car, Chen Jiang couldn't help but ask about what he had promised before.

Yuan Lang laughed out loud, "Don't worry, we've got it all figured out for you. Didn't I promise you that as long as you can pass the trials, we'll take care of the rest!"

After hearing this, Chen Jiang felt relieved. With his words, the matter was completely settled.

"But don't be too happy too soon. You don't have to attend the regular cultural studies at the military academy. I fought hard for this for you, but you can't lag behind in the cultural exams. I'm not letting you just pass, you have to excel! After all, you're representing Old A now, and our soldiers who go out from Old A have to do this no matter what they do!"

Yuan Lang made a thumbs-up gesture.

Chen Jiang smiled bitterly, it seems that he will have a hard time in the future, and he will have to run around.

On one side is the military academy with strict study requirements, and on the other side is Old A with almost harsh training. And according to what he knows, he is not yet an Old A in the true sense, and there is still a perverted elimination stage ahead.

Are you going to kill yourself after all this trouble?
"This is your military academy admission letter! Keep it safe!" Yuan Lang handed over a red double-page cardboard with gold-embossed fonts.

The words "A Certain Army Command College" above are particularly eye-catching.

After opening it, Chen Jiang's name was found inside. He was admitted to the information command major and needed to study for nearly a year.

In addition, the registration time and place are also indicated, which are similar to the registration of college freshmen.

At the bottom is the school principal's personal signature and official seal.

There is a page of pink paper at the back, which contains notes for students, etc.

"Originally, this thing was sent to your 702nd Regiment, but I happened to see it when I went to the military headquarters, so I just got it for you." Yuan Lang was intercepting Chen Jiang. Chen Jiang's transfer procedures had not been completed yet, but he started to worry about Chen Jiang's future.

"Xu Sanduo and his gang, I told them to come after I finished my work, but they couldn't wait. They really have no sense of organization."

Yuan Lang looked angry, but Chen Jiang just smiled and didn't respond.

Seeing that Chen Jiang did not respond, Yuan Lang put away his smile.
"Squad Leader Shi Jin, whom you are concerned about, has had some problems."

"Ok?"

Chen Jiang was a little stunned. What did this mean?
"To be precise, it wasn't him who had an accident. It was something that happened at home. His father was defrauded of a large sum of money by a scammer, and in a fit of frustration, he drank pesticide. So Shi Jin took leave and returned home."

Chen Jiang knew that Shi Jin was also from the countryside. It was precisely because he knew how difficult it was to be a rural soldier that he reluctantly accepted Xu Sanduo. Moreover, he was sincere to every soldier. In the words of Wu Liuyi: He wants to mold all of us soldiers into human form!

Therefore, Shi Jin was deeply loved by officers and soldiers and had a very high prestige.

He now finally understood why Wu Liuyi and others were hesitant to speak.

“How big is the money gap?”

"I don't know. He doesn't want to say. You know him. He doesn't want you to see his vulnerable side. Wu Liuyi and the others organized a donation and raised some money for him to use in an emergency, but he refused to take it."

Yuan Lang sighed, "I don't know what happened next, but the army gave him a long leave so that he could properly deal with his family affairs."

Chen Jiang didn't ask any more questions. His family was not rich, and he had no reason to use his family's money to help his comrades. Shi Jin would not accept it either.

As for their military allowances, they can only buy some daily necessities and are not enough to support them at all.

Along the way, the two of them did not speak again.
He arrived at the 702nd Regiment Headquarters in such a dull mood, and Xu Sanduo and the other two were already waiting for him there.

Yuan Lang took them straight to Wang Qingrui's office.

Wang Qingrui knew they were coming, and unusually, he prepared a cup of tea for each of them.

However, Yuan Lang, who had just taken a big gulp and was feeling thirsty, complained bitterly, "Captain Wang, what kind of tea is this? It's so bitter?"

"Kuding tea, this is really good stuff! I usually can't bear to drink it myself."

Oh my god, this is what it is.

Chen Jiang knows a little about Kudingcha.
To be precise, this kind of tea is not actually tea.
Although the price is not high, it is an excellent Chinese medicine.

It can dispel wind and heat, improve eyesight and promote salivation.

But the downside is that it's extremely bitter, and the smell is a bit unbearable.
So at this moment they were holding their teacups, not knowing whether to drink or not.

Just smelling the smell is pungent enough. Wouldn’t it be bitter enough to take a sip?
"As a soldier, I'm not afraid of death, so why would I be afraid of this bitter taste?" After Wang Qingrui said this, he picked up the teacup in front of him and took a big gulp.

Needless to say, his is also Kuding tea, and judging by the color, it is more concentrated.

Seeing that the elders had already drunk, Yuan Lang couldn't help but drink. He picked up the wine and took a sip, but Wang Qingrui's sharp eyes still did not let him go. Yuan Lang smiled bitterly and drank it all.

Seeing that Yuan Lang had finished drinking, how could Chen Jiang and the others be willing to fall behind?

It's also just copying others.

It’s bitter, so bitter!
So everyone's faces were very interesting, Chen Jiang could be sure that

If the team leader and Yuan Lang were not here, they would definitely rush into the toilet at the end of the corridor as quickly as possible and vomit everything out.

"I asked you to drink tea, not to toast you, why did you drink it all?"

Wang Qingrui shook his head, and then his eyes became gentle. "Hasn't anyone of you ever tried Kuding tea?"

"Captain, I have drunk it before." Chen Jiang told the truth.

"Oh?" Wang Qingrui was a little surprised, because very few young people can drink bitter gourd tea, and it is rare to find those who are willing to drink Tieguanyin.

"So how much do you know about it?"

Seeing that the team leader had asked, Chen Jiang could only give a brief explanation.

"Haha," Wang Qingrui smiled noncommittally, "You're right, but you didn't get to the point!"

"It's very adaptable and may not look very attractive, but its effects are remarkable. It has the effects of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, lowering blood pressure and weight, and inhibiting and preventing cancer."

"The most important thing is that although its taste is very bad at first, after a while, a sweet aroma will emerge."

Yuan Lang didn't usually drink tea, so he knew nothing about it. After hearing Wang Qingrui's analysis, he was genuinely impressed. "I didn't expect Captain Wang to know so much about tea?"

"Haha, I'm not a big tea expert, nor do I enjoy studying it. All I've learned in my life is one thing: 'To do good things, you must first be a good person, and you must learn the life lesson that sweetness comes after hardship.'"

"These soldiers you want are all good soldiers!" Wang Qingrui said with emotion.

"There's no need to say much about Chen Jiang. Wu Liuyi is the armored tiger of the 702nd Regiment, Chengcai is a promising sniper, and Xu Sanduo has been guarding the barracks alone for almost half a year. Frankly speaking, these four soldiers will prove extremely valuable wherever they go, and I really don't want to hand them over to you. But this is an order from the division headquarters, and I'm a soldier, so I have to let them go."

"I hope that these four people will finally realize their ideals as soldiers in their new units and make new contributions!"

Yuan Lang and others were deeply touched after hearing this. It turned out that this was what the old leader meant.

At this moment, everyone's throat began to have a sweet taste of grass. This feeling was really magical.

First bitter, then sweet, isn’t this a vivid portrayal of military career and even life?

"Captain, in the past six months or so, I have actually done nothing, and I have not won any new honors for the regiment. I am very ashamed." Xu Sanduo lowered his head.

"I know, Xu Sanduo, you can't participate in the competition alone. This is not your fault! The fault lies with our group!"

"No, the regiment has always been good to us, but I'm not very good at being a human being." Xu Sanduo took the initiative to admit his mistake.

"Hey," Wang Qingrui retorted directly, "People aren't made by doing, they're made by living. Just like when you're defending a military camp, you're not only defending the camp, you're also defending yourself!"

Wang Qingrui glanced at the others again.

"Chen Jiang."

"To!"

"You did very well on your promotion exam. I heard the leaders in the division and army praised you to the skies."

"Report to the captain, I am ashamed to say that I am not that outstanding." Chen Jiang quickly humbled himself. He couldn't understand what the captain meant.

"Nonsense! With so many new recruits and veterans, you were promoted and even ranked first in the exam. If that's not outstanding, what is? We must be realistic! Pride makes people fall behind, but excessive humility is even worse than pride!"

"Chen Jiang, you must remember that you are an excellent soldier. I will not make a mistake in your judgment. One day, you will become a soldier that even I cannot match!"

Chengcai and others were very surprised by Wang Qingrui's evaluation of Chen Jiang.
But Yuan Lang understood what he meant and showed a firm expression.

"Yes, not only him, but everyone else will become a proud soldier!"

Wang Qingrui nodded, stood up, and handed four wrinkled personnel files to Yuan Lang. "I'll hand them over to you now! I hope you treat them well. Of course, I understand the principle of strict command and strict soldiers."

"Please rest assured, Old A is a very good whetstone. If it is a good knife, it will be sharpened faster and brighter by us!" Yuan Lang answered very confidently.

"The faster you sharpen a knife, the better. There's a degree of sharpening involved. If you sharpen it too much, it's easy to get cut!" Wang Qingrui laughed.

"You asked me why I underestimated my own soldiers. Now I think you're right. They were all soldiers I underestimated. It all depends on how you lead them in the future!"
