Chapter 77 A big hurdle in military life!
In the open space in the middle of the Queshan training ground, the regiment commander Fu Qiang came forward with a list.
"After counting, the following 100 warriors have been awarded this year's Warrior title. Please come forward in order to receive your award when your names are called!"
"No. 1 Liu Ya, No. 4 Zhang Haiyang, No. 8 Xie Teng, No. 23 Chen Wei..."
The list consisted of ten names that were read out one by one. The soldiers whose names were called immediately stepped out onto the stage, and a group of officers presented awards to them one by one.
"No. 37 Xu Ge, No. 38 Kai Youmu, No. 42 Cai Kun..."
After hearing his own name, Xu Ge's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
From now on, I am also a person with the title of warrior!
When Xu Ge followed Kai Youmu out of the queue, he found that everyone around him was looking at him.
Throughout the entire competition, the name of the new recruit Xu Ge was almost known throughout the training ground.
Up ahead, two reporters from the military channel were standing by with their cameras. Seeing Xu Ge passing by, Zhuang Xiaotie took the initiative to shake his hand with a smile, "Congratulations, Comrade Xu Ge!"
"Thanks!"
Ten people lined up in the front, surrounded by several publicity officers holding cameras and mobile phones, filming.
Zhang Fengxue stood in front of Xu Ge holding a medal: "Well done, Xu Ge! You really made Xiao Shuai proud, hahahaha!"
"Thank you, Brigadier!"
Xu Ge was quite surprised. He didn't expect that the brigade commander would personally present the award to him. He saluted and bowed quickly.
A medal was hung around his neck.
Xu Ge glanced at it out of the corner of his eye. The medal was made of metal. On the back was a roaring Wolf Head Regiment, and on the front was the back of a soldier holding a gun. Below it was written the words "XXth Warrior of the 1st Regiment of the Wolf Brigade".
After presenting the awards, Zhang Fengxue didn't rush to leave. Instead, he looked at Xu Ge and asked, "Did you know that you're the only new recruit in the entire brigade who participated in the Warrior Competition this year and even won the title of Warrior?"
"Brigade Commander, I just found out about it too." Xu Ge said truthfully.
"And you broke your group's record in the rapid shooting event. You are truly a hero in your youth!" Zhang Fengxue smiled kindly.
Xu Ge was a little confused and didn't know what the brigade commander meant by saying this to him.
"Now that you've participated in the Warrior Contest, have you ever thought about also participating in the Warrior Contest the day after tomorrow?"
Zhang Fengxue looked at Xu Ge, "You're already qualified to participate anyway."
Xu Ge:!!!
Warrior competition?
I?
He felt that the brigade commander was joking with him.
The selection scope for Warriors is from the entire regiment, with 100 places available each year, while the selection scope for Warriors is 50 people selected from the entire brigade, including the Sirius Commando.
These two are not on the same level at all.
Among the people around him, Su Liujun was the only one who had won the title of warrior three years ago, which allowed him to stay in the Sixth Company until the day of his retirement!
To see how powerful these warriors are, just look at Su Liujun's attitude towards Lao Wang.
Every time the two met, Su Liujun showed his displeasure on his face, but Lao Wang didn't get angry at all!
Xu Ge felt that it was absolutely impossible for him to do it with his half-baked level.
"Brigade Commander, it's already very difficult for me to get the title of warrior. I will definitely be at the bottom of the warrior competition!" Xu Ge said truthfully.
"Young man, don't be so absolute!"
Zhang Fengxue patted Xu Ge's shoulder. "How do you know if you can't do it if you don't push yourself? I'm telling you, getting the title of Warrior is at least a third-class merit! And, how about I make an exception and give you a spot in the Hidden Wolf selection?"
Xu Ge's mind moved: Should I push myself?
The first thing that came to his mind was that he still had 1,000 points of general proficiency to add. If he added it to his physical fitness, maybe he would really have a chance to enter the top 50?
After all, I can already secure first place in comprehensive rapid shooting, which is an extra bonus.
Xu Ge's mind raced, and then he remembered that he still had a chance to challenge the D-level military order, and immediately confirmed the difficulty of the warrior competition in his mind.
"Select the challenge content to obtain the title of Warrior in three days!"
The token instantly gives a prompt:
[The host's chosen challenge is to obtain the title of Warrior in three days. It has been determined that they meet the D-level requirements.]
[Completing the challenge will reward you with 50 general skill points or 1000 general proficiency points. Failure to complete the challenge will result in corresponding penalties.]
It just meets the requirements of the D-level military order!
So, as long as I win the Warrior Competition, not only will I be rewarded, but I can also directly participate in the Hidden Wolf Selection with Ao Xiang, and there will be system rewards to improve my strength?
Moreover, after making meritorious service, you will have another chance to receive a military order, which will further enhance your strength.
Is this a vicious cycle?!
Thinking of this, Xu Ge was excited and ready to give it a try!
It just so happens that this occasion is also suitable for him to issue a military order.
"Brigade Commander, our regiment will be leaving for Minggang Airport tomorrow for parachute training. If Xu Ge participates in the Warrior Competition, will it delay the training process?"
Just as Xu Ge was about to confirm the military order on the token, the regiment commander Fu Qiang came over and whispered a reminder in Zhang Fengxue's ear.
Fu Qiang's voice was very soft, but with Xu Ge's current hearing ability, he still heard every word, and he woke up instantly.
Oh shit!
Yes, it’s time to skydive!
How could I have forgotten about this?
"What do you think, Xu Ge? Have you thought about it?" Zhang Fengxue asked when he saw Xu Ge was still in deep thought.
Xu Ge: "Report to the Brigade Commander, I feel that my current level is not up to the standard of a warrior. I plan to fight again next year!"
"Oh, you are quite determined, kid!" Zhang Fengxue smiled.
He was just asking casually, and it didn't matter if Xu Ge didn't want to go there.
In fact, only Xu Ge himself knew that his fear of heights was quite serious. In his previous life, he didn't even dare to do the cowardly version of bungee jumping.
The words of the team leader Fu Qiang just now reminded him, and Xu Ge instantly thought of using the general proficiency rewards on the skydiving skills that were about to be lit up.
He had a vague feeling that skydiving might be the first major hurdle in his military career.
. . .
. . .
In the afternoon, after returning to the camp, Xu Ge and other warriors were naturally warmly welcomed.
From the battalion commander and political instructor to the company commander and instructor, everyone was smiling happily.
Especially Liu Guoping, it is a great joy that the Sixth Company has 6 more warriors this time!
With a wave of his hand, the afternoon training was cancelled. Anyway, we were leaving for Minggang Airport tomorrow. Each class and platoon would organize free activities, and they could also have dinner if they wanted!
Everyone was naturally very happy, but while they were happy, everyone gradually noticed one thing.
That is Class 9, which was originally known as the sick class and the retirement class. Among the other seven people except Guo Yuanshuai, there are five brave warriors, one fierce warrior and the first place in shooting in the whole regiment!
How can this be called a sick care unit? This is definitely a spearhead unit!
There are only five people in Class Nine now. Not to mention the two contestants, the three who have been accompanying the whole race are also very tired. No one has any interest in having dinner together.
What's more, Lao Wang hasn't seen anyone for several days, so he can't buy anything reliable.
As soon as Xu Ge came back, he lay down on the camp bed and took out his cell phone to tell Guo Yuanshuai the good news, but the other party never replied.
The three veterans were packing their backpacks, while Li Dongshui was playing with Xu Ge's warrior medal and taking selfies from time to time.
"A Shui, you said last time that you were afraid of heights. Is it serious?" Xu Ge asked as he sat up.
Li Dongshui didn't even think twice: "It must be very serious. I definitely won't be able to skydive anyway."
"Have you ever played on a bungee jumping machine at an amusement park?"
“I have played it.”
"What about the roller coaster?"
“Who hasn’t played this?”
"What about bungee jumping?"
Li Dongshui thought for a moment and said, "I think it only happened two or three times in total."
Xu Ge: ???
"No, you call this acrophobia? I'm afraid of your chicken!"
At this time, the three veterans felt something was wrong and looked over. Kai Youmu asked, "Xu Ge, I hear you saying that you are afraid of heights too?"
Xu Ge nodded: "I am really scared!"
"I saw that you were fine when you were climbing, and you didn't say that you felt any discomfort after you got up there." Wang Lin asked.
Xu Ge: "How high is a climbing building? I'm definitely not afraid of it, but skydiving is really not for me. Just thinking about it makes me scared!"
Li Dongshui: "Then you didn't seem scared the last time you took a helicopter?"
"How can that be the same? Helicopters are controlled by people, but parachuting is not!"
"Wait, it seems from what you said that you are not afraid of heights, but you feel insecure." Su Liujun stood up. "This situation is actually easy to overcome. Come, let us help you."
Xu Ge was stunned: "How can I help?"
"Move the chair over the bed, stand higher, and fall back!"
"oh!"
Xu Ge stood at the highest point, crossed his arms over his chest, leaned back and fell down.
Bang!
The other four people caught him steadily, and Su Liujun asked, "How do you feel?"
“It’s quite fun.”
"Thinking about skydiving now, are you still afraid?"
"Afraid!"
Wang Lin: "No, then why aren't you afraid of this?"
Xu Ge: "I know you will catch me."
Su Liujun thought thoughtfully: "You feel insecure in an environment you don't trust."
"Right, right, right!" Xu Ge immediately realized, "I trust you, but I don't trust the parachute bag!"
Kai Youmu said angrily, "You folded the umbrella bag yourself. Do you think you don't trust yourself by saying that?"
"yes!"
"You..."
After hearing what Xu Ge said, the veterans were at a loss.
Wang Lin waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. I'll let the deputy squad leader solve this problem tomorrow when I see him."
Li Dongshui walked up to Xu Ge and tilted his head: "Why do I feel like your problem is more serious than mine?"
"How serious is it?"
Xu Ge was also a little annoyed and lay down on the bed without saying a word.
Damn it, other people are reborn with a brand new look, how come I brought my fear of heights from my previous life with me?
Seeing Xu Ge ignored him, Li Dongshui asked the three veterans again: "What will happen if they try everything but still don't dare to jump?"
"I'll kick you off the plane!" Wang Lin threatened.
Xu Ge: ...
Li Dongshui: . . .
"Seriously, don't joke!"
"What else can I do? I can only not jump."
Xu Ge sat up and asked: "Will there be any consequences if I don't jump?"
"Of course there are. At least you can't get into a unit like the Sirius."
Kaiyoumu said seriously, "They won't allow people with mental disorders to come in, because if they do, there might be consequences during the mission that no one can bear."
Xu Ge was silent, he knew that Kai Youmu was right.
People like Thor often have to go abroad, and most of the time they arrive by parachute. It would be impossible if they couldn't parachute themselves.
"Can't we overcome it through training in the future? Why just deny it?" Li Dongshui muttered.
Su Liujun said seriously: "You two must remember, if you are afraid to jump the first time, you will be even more afraid the second time!"
"Understood!"
Xu Ge gritted his teeth and nodded.
Now the only hope is to increase the proficiency of parachuting skills.
