Chapter 79: With one shout, the whole audience was shocked!
The car was waiting quietly outside.

"Let me briefly talk about the general situation of studying here." Liu Jinbao said to Zhang Chuan, "The difference between the military academy and ordinary troops is not very obvious."

"In the summer, we have to do morning exercises at 6 a.m., and in the winter, it is postponed to 6:30 a.m. After that, we either do actual combat exercises or study tactical theories, command techniques and other professional fields."

"Also, there are compulsory courses in mathematics, computers and basic English every week, which are the core parts of military academy education."

"It can be said that life in a military academy is a perfect combination of the academic atmosphere of a regular university and the strict rules of military life."

"Academic requirements closely follow the standards of ordinary universities, while daily life and training are carried out in strict accordance with military norms."

"There is a small test and training evaluation every month, a major assessment every quarter, and a large-scale drill or long-distance training every six months."

"I'll explain these details later."

"You were promoted from a local unit. After recruit training and basic training in the unit, you are already familiar with the various rules and regulations of the military."

"Unlike those new recruits who joined the army directly after passing the college entrance examination, they have just arrived and know almost nothing about military life. It is difficult to manage them. Just like us when we first entered the recruit camp, we were all ignorant young people."

"So, I can save a lot of effort when guiding you. To be honest, I prefer to lead officers like you who were promoted from soldiers, rather than those student officers who just graduated from school."

Zhang Chuan smiled and asked Liu Jinbao: "Platoon leader, from what you said, you were also a promoted officer before, right?"

Liu Jinbao nodded and confirmed: "Yes, I was promoted to a military academy after I graduated from college and joined the army. After graduation, I stayed in the school and became the platoon leader of the fourth platoon of the seventh company."

Zhang Chuan continued to ask: "Then have all the people in our company been promoted?"

Liu Jinbao shook his head. "No, only our fourth platoon is. There are four platoons in the seventh company. The first three platoons are composed of student officers. The number of people in each platoon ranges from 25 to 35."

"The fourth row has the least number of people, about twenty."

"Although they are in the same company, they have different focuses in their studies. The training time for promoted officers is one year, while the training time for student officers is four years. The teaching progress and content are very different, so they cannot be mixed in the same class."

“But training and life still go together.”

"But..." Liu Jinbao glanced at Zhang Chuan, hesitating whether to tell the truth.

Zhang Chuan continued: "But even though we are in the same company, it's hard to get along with other platoons, right?"

Liu Jinbao smiled bitterly: "It seems that your troops have already introduced the situation here to you."

"That's it. The veterans look down on the student officers, and the student officers think the promoted officers are uneducated. Both sides have grudges, and small frictions are constant in daily life, and even show up during training."

"As a veteran who has served on the front line, he is naturally arrogant. As for the student officer, he is a bit aloof, and he has good physical fitness. As a result, the conflict deepened."

"You have to be mentally prepared. The company commander and the school won't interfere too much in the occasional quarrel or competition, but if you violate the strict discipline bottom line, that's absolutely unacceptable."

Zhang Chuan nodded and agreed: "I understand. I will pay attention."

Liu Jinbao said with concern: "Given your ability, I am not worried that you will be bullied. I am just afraid that you will get impulsive and make a big fuss. You should know that people like you who are special forces have more tempers than field soldiers."

Zhang Chuan smiled helplessly, knowing that this was true.

Special forces are under high pressure all year round, and coming to military academies for further studies is also a special kind of psychological and physical adjustment for them.

If someone deliberately stirs up trouble at this time, they may find it difficult to suppress their anger.

"Are all the officers being promoted new?" Zhang Chuan asked.

Liu Jinbao explained: "Not all of them. About half are newcomers, and the other half are veterans with rich experience. This combination of new and old is to allow the newcomers to adapt to the environment and rhythm of the military academy more quickly, just like the local troops."

"The same is true for the other three platoons, because the professional training content is the same, new and old members live and train together and help each other. As for the learning of professional knowledge, they will be divided into separate classes and taught by special instructors and teachers."

"I understand." Zhang Chuan nodded.

The military academy covers a large area, and even if you drive, you can reach it in just a few minutes. The dormitory building of the Seventh Company is similar to the layout of local troops, both of which are three or four stories high.

Because there is a platoon for promoted officers in the Third Battalion, all dormitory buildings are built with four floors.

According to custom, row one lives on the first floor, and so on, row four lives on the top floor, fourth floor.

It is now lunch time, and the teams from each platoon are gathered neatly at the barracks entrance, waiting for the meal to be served.

"One row, one, two, one, two, one, two, three, four!"

Leading the group was a lieutenant officer.

"one two three four!"

A row of military academy students marked their spots and shouted commands in unison.

The badges they wore on their shoulders were not real officers' badges.
Instead, it is a student badge that represents the student’s identity.

Before graduation, they cannot be considered real officers.
I can only say that he is a student of a military academy.

"In our military academy, although there are non-commissioned officers, their number is small, and the majority of them are officers."

"Captains usually serve as platoon leaders, while lieutenants or second lieutenants serve as squad leaders in their respective classes. They are all fourth-year students and are currently in the internship stage. After four years, some will stay in school to work, while others will be sent to grassroots units."

"Our company commander and instructor are both majors."

Zhang Chuan expressed his understanding.

This situation is not common in the army, but this is a military academy.

As the first row's slogans fell, it was the second row's turn.

"Second row, listen to the sound of the first row. It's like they haven't woken up yet. Come, let us from the second row give them a demonstration."

The officers in the second row raised their arms and shouted, "One, two, one, two, one, two, three, four!"

The students in the second row immediately became excited and roared together.

Everyone had a red face and thick neck, and their voices were louder than the previous row.

Of course, the students in the row were not willing to be outdone and responded loudly again.

A contest of momentum developed between the two rows.

At this moment, the third and fourth rows stood side by side.

They are also secretly competing in their own territory.

"Come on down, let's go eat first, and join the team first."

Liu Jinbao said to Zhang Chuan.

"receive."

Zhang Chuan agreed and immediately ran towards the fourth row.

At this time, the calls from the third row were still echoing in the air.

Zhang Chuan used the camouflage skills he had learned to make his voice louder, and shouted at the lieutenant squad leader of the fourth platoon: "Report! New recruit Zhang Chuan from the fourth platoon of the seventh company is here to report!"

As soon as this voice came out, the whole audience was shocked.
