"Have you heard about this? People from other groups said that our leader got promoted through connections."
"Don't you think that our leader is so young and handsome? They must be envious, so they make wild guesses. I think this is not necessarily the case. You can't judge a person by his appearance. In the war years, weren't there many people who became leaders before the age of 20?"
"You know that was a time of war, but we are in a time of peace! How can we fight and gain merit?"
"But the previous group battle was in the border area. Who knows what happened over there?"
"What you said makes sense."
"It's just right for the army to hold a competition for regimental commanders. Let's test the waters and see whether our commander relies on connections or on himself. The results will make it clear at a glance."
Everybody was looking forward to the outcome of this captain competition. Of course, everybody hoped that their captain would win.
Although I don’t dare to expect to get first place, after all, it is quite difficult, but I just hope I don’t come last.
After all, if their captain was ranked last, it would be shameful for the soldiers under him.
After all, what can you learn from the last one? When you go out, people will say that your group is the worst during the competition, and your group leader got promoted by connections...
Everyone is looking forward to the team leader competition, hoping for wonderful performances and results.
After the competition begins, the theoretical assessment will be conducted first.
All the team leaders were arranged in a room, just like the examination hall in ancient times. Everyone was assigned a desk, and there was a test paper on each desk.
Wang Jianguo took the test paper, studied it carefully, and answered it carefully based on the knowledge he had learned on his own.
To be honest, if he relies purely on theory, he really doesn't benefit from it and he doesn't have much confidence in it.
Because he was a wild boy who grew up in the mountains and had little education, he mostly attended classes in other primary schools and would hide away when the get out of class was over for fear of being discovered.
Later, when I was in middle school, I relied on self-study, and after I joined the army, I read a lot of military books.
Although I have read a lot of military books, there is still some gap between me and those who have taken serious classes since childhood.
They are studying full-time, and I only listen to them every now and then, so I don’t know if I can understand them.
After finishing the theoretical questions, there will be competitions in simulated warfare and physical fitness.
This competition is fair, after all, everyone competes in the same events, but there are also some unfair aspects.
For example, Wang Jianguo has only been the regiment commander for a few days, but the other regiment commanders have been in office for a long time and have very rich experience. Some of the older ones have been promoted from platoon leaders, company commanders, and battalion commanders level by level. There is no need to mention the leadership abilities of these people.
Although he lacked experience compared to other team leaders, Wang Jianguo did not dare to be careless or stage-frightened. He took it seriously and decided to perform at his best in the best condition.
It is hard to tell how the theoretical exam went for the time being, after all, it has not been corrected or graded yet. We will have to wait until the grading is finished to know.
When it came to the individual combat stage, Wang Jianguo showed his extraordinary ability and took the lead all the way, leaving the other captains stunned.
"Is this guy the reincarnation of a monkey? How could he run so fast? In a flash, he disappeared from our sight." One of the group leaders hadn't started yet, but he found that Wang Jianguo had disappeared.
Wang Jianguo was also good at shooting and assembling weapons. When other commanders were working hard to assemble, his hands were assembling quickly, so fast that it was difficult to see clearly. In just a few strokes, he had completed the assembly, making him the best and fastest commander.
Captain Liu, who had previously questioned Wang Jianguo, was also shocked by Wang Jianguo's performance.
He had never seen such a fast speed in his life. Today he finally learned something new. He reacted quickly and completed his task smoothly.
My impression of Wang Jianguo began to change, and at the same time I wondered to myself: Could it be that he really has no background and was able to rise to the position of regiment leader on his own at such a young age?
After all the competitions were over, Wang Jianguo won the first place in the overall score!
In addition, he broke three records!
This caused quite a stir in their army, and Wang Jianguo suddenly became a celebrity and even their new star commander.
The group under Wang Jianguo's charge was even more happy for Wang Jianguo. Everyone swept away the previous haze and was particularly excited because their group leader was the number one, and therefore the most powerful.
"Some people said before that our leader is so young and must have relied on connections. Now it has been confirmed that our leader has real talent and is definitely not relying on some crappy connections."
"That's right, I think those people are just jealous and spread rumors on purpose. Our leader is very powerful!"
"I heard a rumor today that our regiment commander won a special merit in a battle. He not only saved the border land, but also captured a lot of enemy troops. That's why he was promoted out of turn."
"Is this true? I haven't heard of any wars going on anywhere recently."
"Oh, the news is out of date. There was a conflict on the border a while ago. Both sides suffered losses. However, in order to reduce the social impact, it was not widely reported. Only a few troops knew about it."
After hearing this news, everyone admired their leader even more.
Their commander has been through war and is a real tough guy.
He defends his country and never takes a step back. He is a fighting hero!
Following such a team leader, they feel confident.
"This is amazing. How many of the regiment commanders in our army can be compared with our commander? Previously, Commander Liu humiliated our commander in the cafeteria, but he must be so ashamed this time that he was left far behind by our commander in the competition."
"That's right. When I saw him going to the cafeteria at noon today, I didn't dare to get close to our leader."
After the team leader competition was over, Wang Jianguo held another meeting. When he led the team in training, he could clearly feel that everyone was very enthusiastic and their voices were much louder than before.
Wang Jianguo knew that everyone must know that he won first place, so they listened to him so seriously.
Now not only his group knows, but everyone in the entire team knows that he won the championship of the competition.
A few days ago, they were all very listless, and looked absent-minded when he was speaking. At that time, Wang Jianguo thought they were always like this. Today he realized that they are not like this every day.
"Captain, I heard that you participated in the battle and made contributions before? Is that true?"
Wang Jianguo smiled and said, "Who told you that?"
Since Wang Jianguo himself didn't say it, then it must have been someone else who said it.
He has only been here for a short time and doesn't know many people. The people who know this news must be at the leadership level. Could it be that this was released intentionally by the superiors?
Thinking about this competition among the regiment commanders, and then thinking about the news that everyone knew he had made military achievements, Wang Jianguo knew in his heart that the leaders must be afraid that someone would embarrass him again, so they held a special competition to eliminate everyone's criticism of him.
Thinking of this, Wang Jianguo suddenly felt warm in his heart.
"Almost everyone knows it now. This kind of information becomes an open secret as long as more than three people know it."
Wang Jianguo: "It's not as great as everyone says. It's just a little bit great, not a big achievement."
"Commander, can you tell us what the situation was like at that time, the comparison between the enemy and us, and how you defeated the enemy with a smaller force, recaptured the position, and rescued many brothers?" One of the battalion commanders really wanted to know what happened at that time, and his tone was full of admiration for Wang Jianguo.
Wang Jianguo: "We were there to relieve the guard, but we noticed something strange right after we arrived because there were obvious signs of a fight on the ground. I asked everyone to hide in time to avoid becoming a target. Then..."
"Wow! The captain is so brave! He is both wise and courageous!"
"The commander was calm and composed, and commanded the troops well. He is really great!"
......
After listening to it, everyone admired Wang Jianguo even more.
After all, this kind of emergency can test a person more.
Many situations in a real battle are unpredictable, which tests a person's ability to respond to emergencies the most.
The battlefield cannot be exactly the same as what is described in textbooks and military books, and it cannot be applied mechanically.
Wang Jianguo spoke so calmly despite being so powerful on the battlefield. This shows that their leader is not only capable but also a good person, and is very humble and honest.
It is better to follow such a leader than those who are nitpicking and talk big but do nothing.
There was a reason why Captain Liu dared to cause trouble for Wang Jianguo. He was promoted repeatedly because of his outstanding abilities.
Although he was not promoted as quickly as Wang Jianguo, he was still among the best at the time and was admired and envied by everyone.
Such an outstanding person is bound to be youthful and even a little arrogant.
He usually admires people with real abilities and can't stand those who rely on connections and flattery to climb up.
So when he saw Wang Jianguo became the head of the group at such a young age, he was very dissatisfied. He thought Wang Jianguo was relying on his background, so he wanted to compete with him.
After this competition, he realized that Wang Jianguo became the team leader on his own, and he even surpassed himself in this competition.
Although Captain Liu did not win the first place, his result was not bad. He was among the top ten. Among the dozens of captains, his result was also in the upper middle level.
His subordinates said to him, "We originally wanted to see the new captain Wang make a fool of himself, but he actually stole the show in this competition. Not only did he win first place, he even broke several records."
"How can he be so outstanding at such a young age? Could it be that our military leader is his relative? Why did they give him such a high score?"
Captain Liu retorted, "Don't make blind guesses. I took the test with him. I know his situation better than you do."
"Captain Liu, do you think anyone is protecting him?"
Captain Liu: "He really has real skills. He shocked me during the test! Not only me, but also everyone who was taking the test with him. He was like a monkey, he ran out in a flash. I have never seen anyone who runs faster than him in my life and in my long time in the army. He can't be fake in shooting. Anyway, he has real skills."
Although Captain Liu is usually a bit reckless, he will sincerely admire others when they have real abilities, and will not deliberately slander them behind their backs or do some petty tricks that are not presentable.
After hearing the leader's words, everyone was still skeptical, "Could it be that he really has something extraordinary?"
"He not only has strong individual combat capabilities, but also strong command and leadership abilities. The key is that he has all experienced actual combat. He was just promoted because of his military achievements. In the future, everyone should be more polite to Captain Wang and show him more respect, so that others won't say that the people in our regiment are uneducated." Captain Liu said to his subordinates.
