Chapter 10 Every profession has its specialties! Running five kilometers cross-country with a load is a very difficult challenge for the recruits. Life is different now than before. Contemporary young people are known as fragile youths. Although this is not absolute, eight out of ten will be out of breath after climbing to the sixth floor. Ask yourself, how many floors can you run while carrying a bag of rice? For someone like Dai Yuejin who can only do one pull-up after a month of training, what's the difference between running five kilometers with a 50-kilogram weight and killing him? Fortunately, the Northeast region has a low altitude and the five-kilometer run was not recorded this time. Otherwise, according to the Tiger Regiment soldiers’ performance of less than 23 minutes, most of the recruits would have failed. Chen Rulong didn't expect them to be able to run within 27 points, the passing line for recruits, as long as they could hold on. As the chief instructor of the recruit company, Chen Rulong also carried weights and ran with the recruits, while observing their conditions. At first, the new recruits could keep up, but as time went on, some of them gradually couldn't keep up with the pace, and the team began to be stretched, causing Chen Rulong to roar: "Don't walk! Run!" "Are you men? If you are, then grit your teeth and persevere!" "If you can't even carry a load for five kilometers, how dare you join the Shenzhou Army?!" "..." Roars like these echoed. Iron feet are synonymous with the Chinese Army. The Tiger Regiment is a mechanized infantry regiment. Although it has mechanization in it, the top priority is the infantry. Armed cross-country is commonplace and it is the most basic of the basics! Although the new recruits cannot keep up physically, the army is a collective and the young people are a passionate group.
Inspired by Chen Rulong's words, and with his comrades still persisting, he gritted his teeth and followed with difficulty. After three kilometers, very few people could keep up with Chen Rulong. But Su Chen did not slow down from beginning to end. Except for his slightly rapid breathing, he was able to keep up with Chen Rulong and other squad leaders. Chen Rulong and the squad leaders of other squads were a little surprised. It seemed that this soldier named Su Chen had been trained before! By the last kilometer, only Su Chen could keep up with Chen Rulong's pace! Even many monitors from other classes were left behind by Su Chen. Chen Rulong glanced at the timer and said to Su Chen, "Not bad! Keep going and you'll be able to get into the excellent line!" "Yes...!" Su Chen responded with heavy breathing. He thought that since he had graduated from a martial arts school and had been exercising regularly for three years, running five kilometers with a weight would be a piece of cake. However, after actually running, Su Chen found that it was not the case at all. It would be no problem for him to run five kilometers or even ten kilometers with light luggage, but with a load of fifty kilograms, even Su Chen felt tired and his breathing became heavier. This is called specialization! Just like the mercenary Su Chen used close combat skills to defeat, most special forces soldiers are no match for professional fighters in terms of fighting skills. There is nothing they can do about it! Fighting is just one of the skills of a soldier, especially in modern times. Guns are fast at seven steps away, and they are damn accurate and damn fast at seven steps. How can a soldier take out all his time to practice fighting? On the contrary, a professional fighting athlete practices fighting every day. How can he not be strong if he specializes in one thing? Of course, there are exceptions to everything. Old Wu, who achieved physical sainthood, is obviously not included in this category. As for those Wu masters... it's hard to say. After running five kilometers with weights, Chen Rulong checked the stopwatch and looked at Su Chen approvingly. "21 minutes and 39 seconds, not bad! Already passed the passing line for Tiger Regiment soldiers, 39 seconds away from excellent. Have you practiced this before?" "Huh..." Su Chen adjusted his breathing. "Report, I have practiced freehand running, but I have never practiced weighted cross-country running, huh..." Chen Rulong patted Su Chen on the shoulder and said, "You have talent! Keep it up!" "Yes!" Su Chen shouted. Chen Rulong didn't say anything more to Su Chen, but began to record the results of other recruits. As he expected, no more than 10 people reached the passing line for recruits, and most of the others were between 35 and 40 minutes. This result was within Chen Rulong's expectations. ......... It was noon and after eating, they had lunch break. The recruits love and hate lunch breaks. They love it because they can finally rest after a whole morning of physical training, but they hate it because there are requirements for lunch breaks: either sleep with the quilt open or sleep on a mat. Folding the quilt is undoubtedly a painful torture for the recruits. Chen Rulong's requirement for the three shifts was that they must go to bed. Before going to bed, Dai Yuejin lowered his head and walked to Su Chen without saying a word. He took a deep breath and hesitated, "Um, Brother Chen..." Su Chen raised his eyes to look at him, "Hmm?"
Dai Yuejin lowered his head, embarrassed to look at Su Chen, "What happened this morning was... I was wrong. I apologize to you, please don't take it to heart!" Su Chen was not a person who held grudges. After hearing what Dai Yuejin said, he smiled and patted Dai Yuejin on the shoulder: "Haha, I would have forgotten about it if you hadn't mentioned it! It's okay, we don't talk about that among brothers." Dai Yuejin raised his head and smiled, "Okay, OK! Let's not talk about it." Suchen smiled back. "By the way..." Dai Yuejin seemed to want to ask Su Chen something, but after meeting Su Chen's gaze, he swallowed the words on his lips and smiled awkwardly, "It's okay." Su Chen knew that he wanted to ask why he had a stress reaction, so he didn't say anything else and nodded, "Okay, I'll take a break!" ......... On the other side, Chen Rulong had found the instructor of the recruit company and reported Su Chen's stress reaction today. After hearing this, the instructor realized the importance of this matter and confirmed, "Old Chen, are you saying that the recruit named Su Chen suffers from a certain degree of post-war stress disorder?" Chen Rulong nodded, "Yes! Instructor, you know, I've been on the battlefield, and I understand his reaction very well!" "It's really strange. How could he have post-war stress disorder when he's only 18 years old?" The instructor frowned and thought for a moment before saying to Chen Rulong, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll check his information later. If it's true, we'll make plans for the next step." "Yes!" After Chen Rulong left the office. Zhao Chuan, the instructor of the Recruit Company and the 8th Company of the Tiger Regiment, picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number. The call was quickly connected. Zhao Chuan said: "Hello? I need the information of a soldier, can you help me find it!" ......... Not long after, Zhao Chuan sat in front of the computer, opened the database and looked up Su Chen's information. What was displayed was the files that Su Chen and other local units could not retrieve. There was nothing special at the beginning of the file, except that it recorded that Su Chen had been dealt with administratively several times for fighting, which was not unusual. What really attracted Zhao Chuan was the following line of introduction: "On August 2018, 8, Su Chenyong rescued our soldiers and performed outstanding deeds of bravery. He was named '7 Liaodong Advanced Individual for Bravery'!" "Saved our soldiers?" Zhao Chuan felt strange. Logically speaking, he should be able to find Su Chen's specific deeds in this database? ! Zhao Chuan picked up the phone on the table again and dialed the number... (End of this chapter)
