The head of the group's office...
"Report to the regiment commander, I heard that our regiment will be sending a team to Guangzhou in the next two days to participate in the exercise training. I would like to apply to participate!"
The regiment commander, Gu Chengqi, looked at Zhao Yilu sharply for a moment and asked, "What's your name? Which battalion are you from?"
Zhao Yilu replied loudly and clearly: "Report to the commander, I am Zhao Yilu from the fifth squad of the barracks."
"Zhao Yilu..." Captain Gu muttered the name silently, as if thinking about something.
Suddenly he remembered that Captain Zhang of the Yibing Battalion had talked to him a few days ago. There was a very good young man in the Yibing Battalion who performed very well in all aspects. The soldier was called Zhao Yilu!
Regimental Commander Gu asked calmly, "You've only been in the army for a month. How dare you say you want to go to Guangzhou for training? Do you know who can go there?"
"You know, those who can do it are the elite among the elites!" Zhao Yilu answered loudly and decisively.
"So you are?"
"I am!" Zhao Yilu said with a firm and confident tone.
"Young man, self-confidence is an advantage, but being too arrogant becomes a disadvantage!" Captain Gu said with some sarcasm in his tone.
"Please give me a chance to prove myself!" Zhao Yilu still spoke calmly.
"Hey, I'll give you a chance!"
Captain Gu stood up and walked in front of Zhao Yilu. "Have you seen the training ground outside?"
Zhao Yilu turned his head and looked out the window. "I see."
"I will see you there in ten minutes. If you can complete the training targets I give you, I will allow you to go to Guangzhou." Captain Gu said seriously.
Zhao Yilu's eyes lit up...
"Yes, Captain!" After saying that, he turned and ran out of the office.
Ten minutes later, Zhao Yilu appeared on the training ground on time.
Captain Gu looked at the energetic young man in front of him, and a sense of anticipation surged in his heart.
"Zhao Yilu, I hope you can remember what you said to me today. The elite among the elites is not something that can be achieved by words, but by strength!" Captain Gu said loudly.
"Yes, Captain! Please give us the instructions!" Zhao Yilu responded loudly.
Captain Gu picked up the whistle and blew it hard.
"Today's training is a ten-mile cross-country run with your back to the ground. You need to complete it within forty minutes. If you fail, you will return to the barracks and continue training."
Zhao Yilu didn't say anything, picked up his backpack and rushed forward.
Time passed by minute by minute, Zhao Yilu's clothes were soaked with sweat, but his pace became faster and faster.
He had only one thought in his mind, to complete the mission, to prove his own strength, and to get a place in Yangcheng to participate in the exercise. Only by going to Yangcheng would he have the opportunity to take some time to visit Fan Hua and know the extent of her injury.
Finally, Zhao crossed the finish line and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.
Captain Gu walked over to him and handed him a bottle of water. "Zhao Yilu, you've done it, boy. But if you want to participate in the competition, physical strength alone is not enough, you also need skills!"
After saying that, Captain Gu handed Zhao Yilu a gun and said, "Look at the target in front of you? Shoot ten shots at the target. If you can hit nine out of ten, I will allow you to participate in the exercise in Guangzhou!"
Zhao Yilu took the gun from the regiment commander and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.
Sweat trickled down his cheeks and onto his shoulders. He fixed his eyes on the target in front of him, took aim, and the bullet flew out with the sound of the wind.
The first shot—hit the bull’s eye!
He continued firing, shot after shot, and unexpectedly, all ten shots hit the bull's eye! Even Captain Gu was astonished by his accuracy; he was indeed a rare talent!
"Have you practiced your shooting skills before joining the army?" Captain Gu asked curiously.
