Chapter 1043 Dignity Depends on Strength
Wang Ming was a little ashamed, mainly because he had doubted himself just now, because there were so many people, he didn't know whether he remembered it or not, or whether he remembered it wrongly.
He was very impressed by Qin Yuan's strong memory. It was no exaggeration to say that he could remember the scenes of more than 300 people.
The soldier was speechless when Qin Yuan said this. What he said was indeed the truth. He could only lower his head silently, and he was also cheating.
He originally thought that Qin Yuan couldn't remember so many people, so he just took a shortcut, but he really ignored Qin Yuan's strength.
Qin Yuan still had that smile, and he also put on sunglasses, "Everyone, is this game fun today? This is the first selection, and this selection may last for a month. In a month, I will eliminate all of you. In the end, only 16 people will be left. These are the people I want."
Everyone was talking about it when they heard this. It would be too exaggerated to eliminate so many people in a month? Almost every day, people are eliminated.
Qin Yuan's plan was also perfect. He used one month to select all the people, and used the remaining two months to train the two teams so that they could enter the border directly in three months, without causing so much trouble. He had his own ideas.
This was completely different from the instructions these soldiers had received before, because they felt that the time was too short. It was conceivable how difficult it would be to eliminate so many people in one month, so everyone was discussing it. At this time, someone in the crowd finally stood up.
"Commander Qin, I think your elimination system is not good enough? This difficulty is too great for us. It's not that we are afraid of this difficulty. We are all soldier kings, and it's not a problem, but I always feel that it's a bit too exaggerated."
"Oh, soldier king? I've seen too many soldier kings. It can be said that soldier kings are the least valuable things, especially in front of me."
Everyone was very dissatisfied when they heard this guy's provocative words. This was too exaggerated. The words he said were so arrogant.
Everyone was secretly competing in their hearts, waiting to give him a taste of his own medicine, and also to let him see what real strength is. The king of soldiers in each company is no joke, and it is really difficult to manage so many kings of soldiers together.
Wang Ming was a little embarrassed at the side. He coughed slightly and lowered his voice to Qin Yuan's ear and said: "Commander Qin, I think what you said is a bit too exaggerated. It is better not to hit their self-confidence, and they also have dignity."
"Hehe, now I am the chief instructor here, and everything must obey my orders, especially dignity. In my case, things like dignity are exchanged for strength. People without strength do not deserve dignity at all."
Qin Yuan has this strength, so he can say such words. He is very confident that he can challenge all of you. This is his true confidence in becoming the chief instructor.
Although many people do not agree with what he said, the facts are in front of him. He is indeed the chief instructor. He has the right to decide how the next selection should go and how to do it. Even if the people below have opinions, they can only bear it.
Wang Ming knew that this would not work. The resistance of the soldiers below would only get worse. If this happened, and the leaders above knew about it, he, the acting instructor, would not be able to escape. After all, he was here to assist Qin Yuan in his work.
Qin Yuan didn't care so much. He asked them to take the eliminated soldiers down the mountain and prepare for the selection on the second day. He didn't tell them what the selection on the second day would be like, but just asked them to be prepared.
To be honest, today's training was not particularly tiring. It was all over at six o'clock. Everyone just hid and concealed on the hillside. The most tired person today, besides Qin Yuan and Dalong, was Wang Ming. Wang Ming ran up and down, shuttling back and forth between these hills.
So this guy fell asleep after he went back. He didn't think about anything else. Qin Yuan was not affected at all, let alone Dalong. When they were performing stealth missions abroad before, they were bumping day and night. That was countless. He had long been accustomed to such intensity.
At four o'clock in the morning, all the soldiers in the camp had entered a deep sleep. This was the time when people slept the soundest and were the most tired, including the soldiers on guard.
Qin Yuan led Dalong out of the tent quietly. Fortunately, the sentry on the side felt it at the first time, otherwise they would be punished by Qin Yuan.
Qin Yuan waved at them, signaling them not to make any noise. After seeing this, the sentry felt something was wrong. The people inside were going to suffer. They woke up at this time.
Dalong smiled slightly, and he looked at the time, "Brother Qin, are you going to call them now? Why do I feel like we should wait a little longer?"
"Wait a little longer, is it until the New Year? I told you to call now, so call now."
Dalong was also very helpless. It seemed that he was going to be the bad guy, so he stood in the middle of the camp and blew the whistle directly, an emergency assembly whistle! The soldiers in the tent stood up quickly, which was a muscle reaction.
Everyone's reaction speed was very good, which was recognized by Qin Yuan. After all, these were all soldiers at the king level, and they were also top-notch in their usual training, so in this situation, their muscle memory was the fastest.
But everyone was pulled up for no reason, and they were all a little unhappy. Everyone had a dark face. What was going on in the middle of the night? Everyone thought it was already daybreak, but it was only 4 o'clock when they came out.
"Good morning, everyone. I just heard that the sunrise today is better, so I want to take you to see it. However, my weather forecast just now may be a little wrong. I remember that there was still sunrise when I looked at it last night, but it seems that it is not so good today."
Everyone was holding back their breath and listened to his speech coldly. Qin Yuan just said a few words and then began to give orders.
"The weather is also relatively cool today. I don't think you need to wear so thick clothes. Everyone take off your coat."
Soldiers choose to obey orders, that is their duty, so everyone quickly took off their coats. Now everyone is only wearing short sleeves at four o'clock in the morning, and the temperature in the mountains is only a few degrees in the morning.
At this time, Qin Yuan asked Dalong to randomly select a few people to go to the side to carry materials together. This was something he had contacted yesterday.
Even Wang Ming was a little surprised. He didn't even notice that a lot of wood had been transported to the big tent next to him. All of them were half-man-high wood piles.
The efficiency of these people carrying was too slow. Qin Yuan called a halt. If it continued like this, it would completely affect the subsequent training.
He asked everyone to line up directly, and then actually went forward to carry the wood piles in an orderly manner. Each person picked up one and then returned to the original position. This was faster, and there was no need to distribute them in line.
The front team was relatively smooth. Everyone left after taking them. At this time, a soldier in the team actually started to pick them.
Because the wood piles were all different, they were completely random. Some wood piles were slightly dried in the sun, so they would be lighter, but some looked more damp.
Because the soldier's selection completely affected the progress of the latter, the speed of the selection was also slowed down. Qin Yuan walked forward, and the soldier was still picking seriously, and didn't notice that Qin Yuan was standing behind him.
This was also a kind of cheating behavior in Qin Yuan's view. He gently patted the soldier's shoulder and then showed that innocent smile.
"Comrade, are you picking up New Year's goods here?"
The soldier was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and didn't say anything more. He just stood there silently, at a loss. Now he was discovered.
This made the people behind him laugh. Qin Yuan walked forward and deliberately chose a thicker wooden stake.
"I see that this young comrade is strong, and this wooden stake is very suitable for you. Young people should exercise well and don't think about taking shortcuts."
The soldier could only bite the bullet and walk forward to take the wooden stake. The weight of this wooden stake was obviously heavier than the others, but what could he say.
After Qin Yuan finished, he turned his head and looked at the people who were still queuing behind him and said: "Remember, this is not a vegetable market, you are not here to choose. Everyone pick up the wooden stake in front of you and go directly. Don't affect the progress behind. If there is another selection, I will choose it for him personally."
It can only be said that in this field of vision, the entire camp was only relying on two lights that were temporarily set up, and Qin Yuan could see it clearly. No one dared to make small moves anymore.
In this way, the progress of the selection is getting faster and faster. Dalong is watching with great interest. To be honest, choosing these lighter wooden stakes now seems to be related to luck, and some soldiers are relatively lucky.
In addition, this kind of wooden stake, no matter how light it is, it is not much lighter. In fact, the weight is almost the same. Qin Yuan had selected it before, and the difference in weight is just a little bit.
Ten minutes later, everyone took the wooden bricks and Qin looked at the top of the mountain opposite. From here, they are a relatively flat small plain. The top of the mountain opposite is at least two hours away from here.
"The weather is so good today, let's exercise together, carry the wooden stakes, and set off towards the top of the mountain opposite."
Everyone was cursing in their hearts, thinking that this was simply a devil, calling everyone up at more than 4 o'clock in the morning, and then just to resist the wooden stakes here.
But they didn't know that this was just the first step to consume their strength. There are still many things to come. Just like this, everyone set off carrying the wooden stakes.
Although some people were eliminated yesterday, there are still about 300 people, which is quite large. There is a little distance between everyone.
A soldier in the crowd whispered: "This guy is really worthy of his reputation. I heard about him when I was in the recruit company before. At that time, I was glad that he would not come to the recruit company. I didn't expect to meet him now."
"Fortunately, this thing is nothing to us. It's just that we got up too early. Now we don't even have breakfast."
"You are still thinking about what breakfast to eat. Now you should be glad that he didn't stipulate when we should rush up. If the time is stipulated, we have to speed up. The wooden stake will get heavier as we go back."
Just after this soldier finished complaining, he suddenly heard Dalong shouting loudly with a loudspeaker behind him, stipulating that they must climb to the top of the opposite mountain within two hours, and those who fall behind will all be deducted points.
Everyone was confused when they heard this. What deduction? At this time, Qin Yuan stood on the opposite hillside slowly.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you about this last night, but it was the plan I came up with first. People who fall behind will be deducted points. Everyone now has a total of 50 points. Those who have all their points deducted will be eliminated directly. This is the score of my training program for this month."
What! The soldiers inside began to get upset. A total of 50 points, this is too low. They have participated in other selections before, and at least the lowest score starts from 100 points. His direct selection from 50 points is completely halved.
In this way, the elimination will be very fast in a month. As long as you make a slight mistake, you will basically be deducted points.
Now that the two-hour time has come, most of the soldiers are carrying wooden stakes and sprinting forward quickly. No one wants to fall behind and be deducted points.
But it's not yet completely light, the surroundings are dark, and the vision is limited. In addition, they have taken off their coats and are wearing thin clothes. It's really a torture to carry this thing on their shoulders.
At first, everyone felt very cold. After running a distance, they began to sweat. However, the wind in the mountains was really unbearable.
Wang Ming felt that this training method was a bit too much. "Commander Qin, if these soldiers get sick, it will be difficult for us to explain. Otherwise..."
"Do you really think they are all made of dough? Since they are all soldiers, let me see their strength, otherwise they are not worthy of these two words."
In comparison, Qin Yuan's life is much more comfortable. Dalong next to him carries a water bottle for him and hands him a water bottle at any time.
The two supervised, Qin Yuan commanded Dalong and asked him to go to the front to see, "Remember, we will go downhill soon, don't meet those opportunists who try to throw wooden stakes down, and all points will be deducted."
Qin Yuan's voice was also relatively loud. He said this to warn these soldiers not to think about these things. He will follow and supervise the whole process.
Normally it takes them two hours to crawl, not to mention that they are carrying wooden stakes. Everyone can only speed up. In this way, the sky has begun to brighten and it is now past 5 o'clock.
