Today is Zhang Fan's first day in Class 1, Grade 3 of the Royal Military Command Academy F Training Camp in the Principality of Ryan. He is very curious about what the first lesson at this military academy will be like.
Their instructor was a captain, battalion commander named Wang Desheng, who was an active-duty soldier in the Ryan National Army.
This name is really distracting.
The academy's teachers are divided into two types. One type consists of officers like Wang Desheng, who are transferred from the military and are mainly responsible for the students' physical training and military skills. Their actual status is still that of active-duty soldiers, not teachers, and they are replaced every year.
The other type is the academy's true teachers, composed of retired military personnel at the rank of major general or above, who mainly teach military theory and command skills, etc.
Ryan Military Academy is an advanced command academy designed to train high-level commanders who can strategize and win battles from afar, rather than soldiers who charge into battle on the front lines.
"My name is Wang Desheng!" the instructor shouted at the front of Class 3-1's formation, his voice booming. "I don't know how your previous instructor trained you, and I don't want to know! I'm not interested in knowing!"
"From now on, you will be my soldiers. Now, let's begin my first training lesson, which will also be yours."
The trainees held their breath, appearing somewhat excited.
Before returning to school, they had already heard that this year's instructors were active-duty soldiers who had returned from the front lines of Milan.
Since the invasion of Fass, the lack of combat experience among the fourth-year students who went to the front lines as reserves has been fully exposed. Military academies across Ryan have begun to focus on combat this year, and the new batch of instructors are all active-duty officers who have returned from the front lines.
The capital planet is far from the front lines of war, and to the trainees here, soldiers returning from Milan are all heroes.
Some trainees were so excited that their faces turned red when they looked at Wang Desheng.
Wang Desheng's gaze swept over the line of students in Class 1, Grade 3.
"5km cross-country run, carrying 10kg of weight, let's begin!"
ah?
The students in Class 1 of Grade 3 stood there blankly.
It's only the first day of school, do you have to be this harsh?
"What are you standing there for?" Wang Desheng roared. "Squad leader, lead them out! Everyone, put on your packs!"
"Yes, sir!" shouted Kinoko, the class monitor of Class 3-1. "Attention, everyone! Left turn! Equip your packs! Run!"
"I need to remind you," Wang Desheng said, watching the group run out of the training camp towards the back mountain, "if they haven't returned within an hour, they'll miss breakfast!"
The team immediately erupted in complaints, but despite their grumbling, the trainees obediently began their five-kilometer cross-country run with their weights.
Lane Military Academy operates under military management, and its training camps are paramilitary organizations. From the moment they enter the campus, the students are theoretically already soldiers, and disobeying orders from superiors is a serious crime for soldiers.
Zhang Fan ran at the back of the group.
That's it?
According to the standards of Blue Star China soldiers, the passing time for a 5-kilometer armed cross-country run is 23 minutes, with a combat load of 40 kilograms.
Now, if you're doing a 5km cross-country run with a 10kg load and are required to finish within an hour, what's the difference between that and taking a walk?
Zhang Fan only now realized that Ryan's physical fitness standards for soldiers were so low.
However, for most of the students in Class 3-1, this was something they could manage by gritting their teeth. The female students in the team suffered the most, as most of them fell behind after running one kilometer and could only continue running while crying with snot and tears streaming down their faces.
Zhang Fan found the co-ed class system at Ryan Military Academy quite unusual. They didn't divide classes by branch of service; each class had soldiers such as communications soldiers, medics, and machine gunners. Each class was a complete unit, ready to be deployed for combat, so each class contained both male and female soldiers.
It seems that these 10 female students in the class won't get breakfast, which is why they're crying.
Well, I'll help if I can, since we're classmates after all.
Zhang Fan couldn't possibly carry all 10 female classmates to the finish line one by one. Even if he were willing, the other male classmates would kill him with their glares. There was no way around it; in military academy, there were far more wolves than sheep, and even sows looked more beautiful than Diao Chan (a legendary beauty in Chinese mythology).
Zhang Fan left the rear of the group and plunged into the dense forest behind the mountain.
The ten female trainees supported each other and continued to run forward in small steps. Given the current situation, it would be impossible for them to run back to the training camp within an hour. However, these female trainees did not slack off because of this. They gritted their teeth and persevered, doing their best to complete the entire course.
Those who enter the F training camp are all from ordinary families. You could say they are not particularly talented, but without exception, they all entered the Ryan Military Academy through their own hard work and ability, rather than being second-generation students who were "gilded" by their families.
Inside Ryan Military Academy, they might not be considered particularly outstanding, but outside, each of them would be an excellent student; otherwise, how could they have been admitted to Ryan's top military academy?
It is precisely because of their status as ordinary citizens that they cherish this opportunity even more, hoping to change their own and their family's fate through it.
These 10 female students who are still persevering deserve our respect.
"It smells so good, can you smell it?" the female student running ahead asked, turning around.
“I can smell it too. It seems to be coming from the woods next door.”
"Let's go take a look."
The ten female trainees left the path and entered the woods. Soon after, they saw a clearing in the forest with several bonfires burning. The fires had gone out, but the embers were still radiating heat. The pheasants, ducks, and rabbits roasted on top of the bonfires were golden brown and sizzling with oil.
The aroma comes from this.
The 10 female trainees stared wide-eyed, involuntarily swallowing hard.
"Is this...safe to eat?"
"I wonder who baked this, it smells so good!"
"Could it be poisonous?"
"Hmm? There seems to be a note over there."
A female student stepped forward and took a piece of paper hanging on the grill.
The note was left by Zhang Fan. It said that the male students in Class 1 of Grade 3 caught some wild game in the woods and roasted it to save for the female students at the back of the group.
The note was signed with the class emblem of Class 1, Grade 3, and encouraged the female students to continue working hard to catch up after they had eaten, and not to be lazy!
Go go go!
Then there's a smiling emoji and an image of a child holding a penis and urinating to extinguish a flame, reminding them to be careful to put out the sparks.
"Haha, so cute!"
"Waaah, I suddenly think the boys in my class are so handsome!"
"This is the first time I've realized how warm-hearted they are."
"I wonder which boys did it?"
"Let's treat them better from now on."
"Sisters, hurry up and eat, don't let the male classmate's good intentions go to waste."
"Let's keep eating after we finish! We can't lose to the boys!"
Knowing that the food was left by a male classmate, the female trainees began to happily gnaw on the wild game, their mouths greasy with oil.
hey-hey.
Hiding behind the dense forest, Zhang Fan saw that the food he had left behind had been accepted, and left contentedly.
Although I don't want to be number one, being the last boy is too conspicuous. I'll just catch up to the back of the boys' line and try to be one of the last few. I still need to eat breakfast.
Zhang Fan moved through the forest like a leopard.
