Chapter 71: Preparing for the Warriors Competition! Will the deputy come back?
After the confrontation exercise with the 75th Army's infiltration company ended, the Wolf Brigade officially entered the training rhythm.
In the words of Company Commander Liu Guoping, the so-called stationed training actually means being stationed in one place and concentrating on training.
Here, there is no need to deal with inspections from superiors, no need to patrol or stand guard, and no need to participate in various activities. The only thing everyone has to do is train, train, and train again!
I only rest one day a week, and the rest of the time I run all over the mountains from morning to night.
Long runs in the mountains in the morning and evening, reconnaissance in the morning and tactics in the afternoon, or switch back and forth.
This was everyone's life for the first month.
From the rapidly increasing proficiency on the tokens, Xu Ge concluded that one month of training here is equivalent to two months in the past!
front:
"Queue: LV4 (4/9999)"
"Housekeeping: Level 4 (16/9999)"
"Physical Fitness: Level 4 (1022/9999)"
"Shooting: Level 4 (535/9999)"
"Tactics: Level 4 (1361/9999)"
"Fighting: Level 3 (731/999)"
"Obstacle: LV4 (11/9999)"
"Reconnaissance: Level 2 (189/199)"
Just as Xu Ge expected, the system indeed merged the subject of wilderness survival into the reconnaissance skills.
The queue and housekeeping also entered the LV4 level normally.
During this half month of training, the fastest growth was in physical fitness, followed by tactics, combat, and reconnaissance.
Similarly, the subject of capturing prisoners has been incorporated into combat skills.
There are only five people left in Class Nine now. The two veterans, Wang Lin and Su Liujun, do not participate in the training, but they will explain each new subject carefully to the two new recruits.
During the remaining time, Kai Youmu took Xu Ge and Li Dongshui to practice tactics all over the mountain.
Compared with other subjects that require a lot of physical energy, wilderness survival training has become the recruits' favorite subject.
That afternoon, Kai Youmu brought Xu Ge and Li Dongshui to the hillside two kilometers away from the camp.
What we learned today was digging a smokeless stove and making a fire in the wild.
Xu Ge and Kai Youmu were digging on the ground with their engineering shovels, while Li Dongshui found a few dry branches and was trying to make fire by drilling them together.
Halfway through digging, Xu Ge was so tired that he sat down on the grass: "Let's take a break, my hands are all blistered!"
Kaiyoumu also stopped when he heard that and took off his coat.
As March approaches, the weather becomes warmer.
Not far away, a tricycle was parked under the shade of a tree, and Old Wang, wearing a straw hat, was leaning against the tree roots and taking a nap.
"I say, how come making a fire is harder than giving birth? It's been taking you an hour!"
Xu Ge looked at Li Dongshui and scolded him, "Can you do it? If not, let's switch. You dig the stove!"
"Why are you in such a hurry? Wang Lin and Su Liujun haven't come back yet." Li Dongshui was not in a hurry at all. He was still slowly scraping the wood chips with a knife.
Kaiyoumu took out a cigarette and searched in his clothes for a long time without finding a lighter. Then he remembered that everyone was forbidden to carry any kind of fire before setting off. He couldn't help but get anxious: "Ashui, hurry up! I'm waiting for you to light the cigarette!"
“It’s almost there!”
Li Dongshui stuck his butt out and started turning the branch. After turning it for a while, he lay there and blew it a few times.
Another half an hour passed, and Xu Ge and Kaiyou had finished digging the wooden stoves, but this guy still hadn't made a fire.
Two figures emerged from the woods on the east side, running towards this side with something in their hands. They were Wang Lin and Su Liujun.
"Hurry, hurry! Heat the pot, heat the pot!"
Su Liujun came over with two wild rabbits in his hands. "Xu Ge, give me your knife. I'll go skin them."
"Damn, the company commander said we are not allowed to have a picnic!" Xu Ge was surprised.
Wang Lin also came over, carrying a big fat snake. "What kind of food do the kitchen staff make all day? It's far from the forest here, so it's okay!"
Kaiyoumu stood up and said seriously, "Then I'll go get some firewood. I have to test the effectiveness of this smokeless stove!"
Xu Ge: ...
By the time Wang Lin and Su Liujun brought back the washed and skinned rabbit and snake, Li Dongshui had not yet started the fire.
"Damn waste!"
Su Liujun cursed and was about to do it himself when he heard two popping sounds not far away.
When they turned around, they saw Lao Wang holding a cigarette and a lighter, flicking it away.
Wang Lin tugged at Li Dongshui and nodded over there, "Isn't that guy your uncle? Go buy him a lighter."
Li Dongshui looked embarrassed: "I don't have any money!"
"Calling me uncle is already giving him face. How can he have the nerve to ask for money? Go!"
"oh!"
After a while, Li Dongshui came over with a lighter, smiling.
“Well done!”
Everyone looked at Chef Xu: "How do we do this?"
Xu Gezhi put the pot on the stove and said, "Put it in cold water and blanch it first!"
"Get started!"
Everyone took the kettle and poured two pots of water into the pot, then immediately lit the fire to boil the water.
When the water was about to boil, Lao Wang came over with his hands behind his back.
"What are you planning to do?"
The group of people didn't know what Xu Ge was going to do next, so they all looked at him.
Xu Ge: "There's no oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, or anything else. What else can I do? Just grill it."
“I have it here!”
Lao Wang took out a bag from his back, which contained bottles and jars of various seasonings. He squatted beside the pot and said,
"The wild rabbits and snakes of this spring are truly delicious. They're best stir-fried with chili peppers. They're tender and fragrant, and paired with a can of iced drink, they're truly delicious!"
Gulp! Gulp!
Several people were already drooling just by listening to Lao Wang's description, especially when the aroma of meat began to overflow from the pot. They couldn't wait to eat the stir-fried wild rabbit and wild snake.
No one spoke, just looking at Xu Ge.
"Can you do it?" Lao Wang also asked.
Xu Ge: “You can try.”
Lao Wang: "I'll make the seasoning and side dishes, just let me have a few bites."
"make a deal!"
. . .
. . .
Ten minutes later, six people gathered around the iron pot and started eating.
They are called chopsticks, but they are actually just two thin branches.
Xu Ge's mouth was so spicy that he couldn't stop laughing, but he couldn't help but keep picking up the food. The others had the same reaction.
Lao Wang is right, fresh game stir-fried with chili peppers is really addictive.
On the token, add 2 points to the cooking skill value.
Cooking: Advanced (10/50).
Bang!
Xu Ge opened a can of Coke, drank half of it in one gulp, and burped with great satisfaction.
Lao Wang took a piece of snake meat and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it vigorously. He gave Xu Ge a thumbs up and said, "Not bad, your cooking skills are really good!"
"Okay, okay, didn't you say you would only eat a few bites? You ate more than anyone else!" Su Liujun didn't look nice to Lao Wang, and he pushed the other person away with his butt.
"Damn, I even sponsored Coke, so what's wrong with me eating a few more pieces of your meat?" Lao Wang was unhappy.
Sigh! Sigh!
Xu Ge was too lazy to argue with them and continued to eat meat. Soon he was sweating profusely.
Seeing that the pot was almost empty, everyone stopped talking and focused on eating the meat.
After a while, all six of them had eaten and drunk their fill.
Xu Ge and the other five began to clean up the place. Lao Wang sat down on the grass nearby, crossed his legs, picked up a piece of grass, and asked while picking his teeth:
"The Warriors Tournament is just over a week away. Xu Ge, how are your preparations going?"
Xu Ge, who was digging a hole to put out the fire and bury the bones, didn't even turn around: "Is it your business?"
"It's none of my business. Didn't you say you wanted to enter Tianlang to challenge me?"
Lao Wang said lazily, "If you don't get the title of Warrior, you will lose your qualification for the selection!"
Xu Ge said nothing and continued working.
Lao Wang looked at Kai Youmu again: "Kai Youmu, haven't you always wanted to go to Tianlang? How are your preparations going?"
"If I hadn't been delayed by participating in the Sirius selection last time, I would have got the title of Warrior by now!" Kai Youmu said casually.
"It seems you're quite confident, not bad." Lao Wang smiled. "So, you two will be going to the Warriors training camp in a couple of days?"
Kaiyoumu nodded: "Yes!"
Li Dongshui was stunned: "Where to?"
"We'll go to the competition venue for training a week in advance. It's inside the Queshan base."
Kaiyoumu said, "It has nothing to do with you. Didn't you get first place in sniping and immediately qualify for the selection?"
"But if you two go, won't I be the only one left in the class?" Li Dongshui said with a bitter face.
Wang Lin laughed and scolded, "What do you mean? Old Su and I are not human beings, right?"
Li Dongshui: "I'm talking about training. You two don't have to participate in training. Then won't I be the only one running around the mountain?"
Su Liujun: "Don't worry, Wang Lin and I will follow you..."
"Let Li Dongshui train with Class 8 for a week first!"
Xu Ge looked at Wang Lin and Su Liujun, "I still need you two to go to the training ground with me and help me catch up on my lessons."
Lao Wang laughed when he heard this: "After all this time, it turns out our ambush hero is unsure of himself!"
Xu Ge didn't say anything, because what the other party said was right, he really was still unsure.
The main reason is that he has never competed against other people and doesn't know the level of those participating in the Warrior Competition. He only knows that if Kaiyoumu is used as a reference, there will definitely be no problem.
But the problem is that he is obviously inferior to Kaiyoumu in terms of physical fitness and obstacles.
Although Guo Yuanshuai and several veterans have always had great confidence in Xu Ge, to be on the safe side, he still plans to increase his proficiency intensively in this final week.
Wang Lin and Su Liujun naturally agreed to his request without hesitation.
. . .
. . .
The next morning, instructor Jiang Da began to count the number of applicants for the Warrior Competition, and the process of the competition was also announced.
In general, there are no major changes in the competition events compared to previous years, except that in addition to the original 200-meter target shooting event, there is an additional comprehensive rapid shooting event.
In addition, combined with the actual situation of Queshan, the five-kilometer cross-country run has become a real outdoor mountain climbing.
In the afternoon, Lin Wan came again and brought Xu Ge a power bank and some spare medicines.
"Are you going back?"
Inside the tent, Xu Ge poured Lin Wan a glass of water and asked.
"Yes! We'll leave for Minggang Airport tonight," Lin Wan said with a smile. "The Tiger Brigade has already set up a roadblock at the border. Our dean said that we'll be able to get back home if the exercise starts."
Xu Ge was stunned. "Set up roadblocks? How dare they do that? Don't the Queshan Directorate and the military care about that?"
Lin Wan: "Why bother? Didn't the Red Army set up roadblocks here as well?"
Xu Ge was even more puzzled: "The exercise was moved up? Why didn't we receive any news?"
"The exercise hasn't started yet, but the red and blue teams' activity areas have already been divided."
Lin Wan knew Xu Ge didn't quite understand, so she explained, "At this time, the investigators from both sides will have to confront each other in advance. Setting up roadblocks to check vehicles and people is also allowed by the director team."
Xu Ge suddenly thought of something and frowned, "Then how will my squad leader and the others get to Minggang Airport to meet up with us?"
"Deputy Captain Guo is also out investigating?" Lin Wan immediately guessed what was going on.
"yes!"
Xu Ge was very confident in Lin Wan and admitted it directly. He then said, "What should we do now? Will the deputy class leader and the others be kept outside forever?"
"I think you're worrying for nothing. Don't you even think about who Vice-President Guo is?"
Lin Wan smiled, "If you're really worried, give me the phone numbers of Deputy Class Director Guo and your parents, and I'll contact them."
Xu Ge was puzzled: "Why do you want my parents' phone number?"
Lin Wan was speechless: "Are you stupid? This is your hometown now. Can't you just ask your parents to take you wherever you want to go?"
Xu Ge's eyes lit up: "Yes!"
