After Being Reborn, I became a firefighter again?

Chapter 71: Chapter 31 Excellent Soldier, Price Increased! _2

"This kid is impervious to influence, Little Jin says he has a great attitude, fine with anything but training, and just changing squads can straighten him out?"

Wang Jian actually had a good grasp on the situation.

Pan Zhaohui was too hot-tempered, and always liked to stick to the regulations of the squad, which is why the new recruit group started Evening Exercise, and every day they pushed their new recruits until they wailed incessantly. It was because Han Yong couldn’t take it anymore that he started faking illness.

When dealing with such a person, you need to take a gradual approach. If you start off too harsh, they’re bound to collapse. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Old Pan was aware of this, he just didn’t want to relax the standards just because of Han Yong.

Wang Jian was quite certain as he said, "Chief of Staff, switch the squad and his illness will definitely be cured. Gold Staff is a corps staff, spending all day with a new recruit is a waste of talent! Please show him some consideration!"

"That lad..."

The Chief of Staff smacked his lips, looking helplessly frustrated, and then suddenly slapped the table.

"Fine! Hao Chengbin, do you have any objections?"

Since the Chief of Staff had already said "fine," it meant he agreed. Asking Hao Chengbin after that, if he disagreed, it would be like not giving face.

Just now, the Chief of Staff had told Jiang Peng that switching squads would be very difficult, almost impossible, but now it seemed quite easy, decided without even consulting the Regiment Department.

Hao Chengbin laughed out loud.

"Chief of Staff, what objections could I possibly have? Those who can be taught are called troublemakers, and those who can’t are a menace. I don’t think there’s no hope for Han Yong, I’d rather have a troublemaker."

What a critical hit!

Jiang Peng felt insulted.

Hao Chengbin called Han Yong, who was mocked by the entire group, a troublemaker, but he called him a menace!

Fang Huai couldn’t help but laugh.

Squad Leader Hao’s words were too much to his taste!

It’s just unknown whether Jiang Peng, whose face was now a mixture of blue and red, could withstand Squad Leader Pan, who had an even sharper tongue than Squad Leader Hao.

Squad Eight also had a Battalion Commander Zhang, who seemed to be a favorite of Old Pan. Could it be another succession struggle within Squad Eight?

"Enough, enough, stop talking nonsense!

Lad, what are you laughing at? Mocking your comrades, think it’s funny?"

The last sentence of the Chief of Staff was directed at Fang Huai.

Fang Huai immediately suppressed his smile.

"Reporting to the Chief of Staff! I didn’t mean to laugh, I really couldn’t help it! Sorry!"

Now Hao Chengbin and Wang Jian were laughing, but only Jiang Peng’s face grew darker.

"As well? Hao Chengbin, you’re good! The soldiers you train, all cut from the same cloth! Speaking in sarcastic and hurtful manners!"

Hao Chengbin immediately defended, "Fang Huai’s performance has been quite good!"

The Chief of Staff seemed to remember something, glanced at Jiang Peng, and waved his hand.

"Wang Jian, take Jiang Peng back with you. Tidy up the bed, and switch places with that Han Yong."

"Yes!"

The two quickly left.

As Jiang Peng left, he shot Fang Huai a look that said, "A gentleman’s revenge is not too late even after ten years." fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

When the door closed, the Chief of Staff then sneered.

"Right! His performance has been good! So you hid his test results and didn’t report them, trying to extort me for an outstanding soldier?"

Hao Chengbin was momentarily stunned.

Damn it, this Jiang Peng really is the material for a traitor!

The Chief of Staff chuckled and clapped his hands, "All right... Over thirty on the horizontal bar, fifty on the parallel bars. Lad, you’re quite the actor! Every time you see me, you’re like an invalid! Just because I said reaching twenty on the horizontal bar would get you the outstanding soldier award?"

Hao Chengbin sensed that the Chief of Staff wasn’t really angry and immediately responded with a chuckle.

"Chief of Staff, with these results, he’d be considered a top soldier even in the squad. Giving him the outstanding soldier award isn’t too much, right?"

The Chief of Staff glared.

"Don’t try to be sly with me! What I want isn’t just twenty on the horizontal bar, I want progress! Progress! I recognized this lad’s hard work in training, the willingness to endure hardships! The determination to train is what’s valuable! It’s not just reaching twenty on the horizontal bar that deserves the outstanding soldier award!

...And that’s not even counting the ones he sloppily churned out!"

Hao Chengbin fell silent too, knowing this reasoning all too well, or else he wouldn’t have kept it a secret.

After a long pause, he squeezed out, "Leadership, you already promised. You can’t go back on your word, can you?"

Seeing Hao Chengbin at a loss, the Chief of Staff also smiled but no longer kept him in suspense.

"This young fellow is your relative, caring for him this much?

You granted him Deputy Squad Leader within a few days of training, that’s not the style of an Old Soldier!

He’ll still get the outstanding soldier, my word is my bond! The requirement is still twenty, but the rules are going up in price! No sloppy work allowed, a solid twenty, no problem?"

At this, both Hao and Fang were stunned.

Really good, Fang.

Fang Huai felt like cursing aloud.

You don’t want to give it, just say so, hanging a carrot in front of me, what’s the point?

In the Old Soldier assessment, doing the horizontal bar exercise, fifteen is the standard for outstanding!

Are you playing me?

"Hanging sloppy" on the horizontal bar means using momentum to pull up, let oneself drift forward on the way down without controlling the body, then using the swing back as leverage to pull up for the next one, which is completely different from a solid pull-up.

Solid pull-ups on the horizontal bar are straight up and down, not borrowing any momentum at all. Without control during the fall, it’s painful on the hands, and it’s easy to lose grip and fall off the bar.

If the strength isn’t great enough, it takes more time, and the longer you hang on the bar, the greater the exhaustion as you continue, with difficulty scaling exponentially.

Different standards, different limits.

Resting for no more than three seconds, solidly pulling off eighty or ninety would earn a spot in the People’s Liberation Army’s National Grand Martial Arts Competition.

If the resting time is within 1.5 seconds, without using any swinging momentum, seventy would be enough to take on the World Gymnastics Team.

"That’s too much, Chief of Staff, let’s say fifteen!" Hao Chengbin felt it was nearly impossible and haggled back.

"Alright then, fifteen it is!" The Chief of Staff decisively agreed.
