Chapter 238: Synthetic Pilot Unit, Collective Promotion

"Here, I want to congratulate your Steel Blade Company for achieving both individual and team first place in the competition!"

"You not only showed your style in the competition, but also demonstrated the perseverance and courage of your Steel Blade Company!"

After Lu Chong finished speaking, there was thunderous applause.

All the contestants, including Qin Feng, puffed out their chests.

This pride is what they deserve and is watered with their sweat.

Lu Chong continued, "What surprised me most during the competition was your quick response and countermeasures when facing the nighttime attack by the Thunder Leopard Special Forces."

"I can tell you very clearly that this assessment was not arranged by me. It is a surprise inspection by the military."

"The purpose is to see what state our soldiers will be in when faced with emergencies."

"Soldiers are meant to fight. Whether it's a competition, a military games, or an exercise, the ultimate goal is to serve future actual combat."

He raised a finger and said passionately, "Of the three divisions in the army, only ours delivered a satisfactory result. The other two divisions were completely wiped out in this surprise attack."

"And you, as the remaining spark of our division, can bring infinite hope for victory."

I have to say that the teacher’s words are really contagious.

Just a few simple sentences made everyone present excited.

The remaining flame, infinite hope...

This made Qin Feng think of the great man's words: A single spark can start a prairie fire!

Seeing that everyone's emotions were aroused, Lu Chong smiled and said, "Alright, that's enough of the compliments. If you continue, you will all be so proud."

"Now, let me announce the reward the division gives you."

The contestants looked at each other and became inexplicably excited.

For soldiers, honor is the best reward.

Lu Chong solemnly said: "The Steel Blade Company performed outstandingly in the competition and achieved excellent results. After discussion and approval by the leadership, we have decided to award you a collective third-class merit!"

"In addition, all the contestants who won places in the competition were awarded third-class merit and division commendation according to their performance rankings."

"For those who didn't get a place, don't be discouraged. Keep working hard and try again next time."

"Yes!"

The person who gets the reward shouts the loudest.

Although those who didn’t get a ranking felt a little disappointed, they were also happy for others.

Lu Chong continued, "In addition, after careful consideration, the division has decided to use your Steel Blade Company as a pilot unit to build a synthetic combat force."

"So, starting today, you will officially be renamed the Steel Blade Combined Battalion!"

Combined forces!

Combined forces!

Ge Zhiyong was so excited that his hands were shaking.

He never dreamed that he would be able to wait for such a day.

Qin Feng was also very excited. This move was not just a simple upgrade, it could be said to be a complete transformation.

He had learned specifically that the so-called combined forces, in layman's terms, were combat units that included multiple arms.

There are usually tanks, infantry, artillery, engineering units...almost all the basic arms of the army.

In this way, problems such as infantry-tank coordination, infantry-artillery coordination, and clearing obstacles and paths can be solved at the battalion level.

Of course, there are some combined forces to meet different combat needs.

They will also form their own special operations company and platoon...

"Ge Zhiyong!"

"To!"

When his name was called, Ge Zhiyong immediately puffed out his chest and shouted, his head almost reaching the sky.

Lu Chong stared at him. "During your tenure as the company commander of the Steel Blade Company, you performed exceptionally well... Therefore, your superiors have decided to promote you to major. You are now serving as the commander of the Steel Blade Combined Battalion!"

"Yes, thank you, chief!"

Ge Zhiyong shouted with saliva spitting out, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was harder to suppress than AK.

Four years of military school, two years as platoon leader, and two years as company commander.

After years of being a daughter-in-law, I finally got a fucking promotion.

"Guo Haitao!"

"To!"

Guo Haitao's face was filled with ecstasy, he quickly stood up and trotted forward.

Lu Chong looked at him and said the same thing: "During your time as the instructor of the Steel Blade Company, you have been diligent and hardworking... Therefore, your superiors have decided to promote you to major. You will now serve as the instructor of the Steel Blade Combined Battalion!"

"Thank you, Chief!"

Guo Haitao was also very excited and shouted very loudly.

"Qin Feng!"

"To!"

Qin Feng took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.

Lu Chong walked up to him with a smile and said, "Qin Feng, your performance is obvious to all. Not only did you break the division record many times in the competition, but you also led everyone to victory with your excellent command in the team events."

"But considering that you were recently awarded a Second Class Merit, I hope you can understand our difficulties."

"The division will note your merit this time. Next time you make another contribution, we'll combine it and distribute it together. Is that okay?"

"No problem! Qin Feng resolutely follows the instructions of his superiors!"

Qin Feng shouted loudly, but he didn't feel wronged at all.

Normally, the military has a limited number of medals awarded each year.

Simply put, there is a basket of peaches for everyone to share.

If Qin Feng takes one more, the others will have one less.

The commander did this on the one hand to maintain balance, and on the other hand to protect Qin Feng in disguise.

Everyone knows that a big tree attracts the wind.

Being envied and hated are two completely different concepts.

Therefore, sometimes taking a step back can make the road ahead wider.

"Although I can't give you a second-class merit, you can still get a third-class merit, and there won't be any other rewards."

"We have decided to change your rank to captain and appoint you as the company commander of the 1st Company of the Steel Blade Combined Battalion."

"At the same time, you will be awarded 20,000 yuan in cash as encouragement from the division and as additional compensation."

After hearing all the rewards, Qin Feng almost laughed out loud.

You're getting a promotion and a bonus, so what else do you need a bicycle for?

He already has many medals, and the difference between second-class merit and third-class merit is not that big for him.

At this moment, everyone present showed a look of deep envy.

Qin Feng was promoted to lieutenant deputy company commander not long ago, and in the blink of an eye he became captain company commander?

I'm afraid I can't catch up with this speed of promotion even by taking a plane.

Ge Zhiyong and Guo Haitao were filled with emotion.

Qin Feng's kick completed the journey they had walked for seven or eight years.

It is true that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and each generation becomes stronger than the last.

But even though they were envious, they were more grateful to Qin Feng.

At such a critical juncture, if Qin Feng had not made many outstanding achievements and led the team to achieve such excellent results in the competition.

These benefits will definitely not fall on the Steel Knife Company.

Even if Ge Zhiyong and Guo Haitao want to move up, they will probably have to wait another two years.

After announcing the award, Lu Chong said some inspiring words to encourage progress.

Before leaving, he called Qin Feng and Ge Zhiyong to the car separately.

"As a pilot unit of the division, you will face more and more difficult challenges in the future. I hope you can maintain your performance as always and scale new heights based on this foundation."

"Also, I can tell you something: the other two divisions are also piloting combined units."

"Three months later, our superiors will arrange an assessment to verify the results of all parties involved. The specific form of this assessment is not yet clear."

"However, I don't want your battalion to fail me and bring shame to our division."

"Don't worry, Master. We are confident that we can face any challenge and will not let you down!"

Ge Zhiyong and Qin Feng said in unison.

Lu Chong nodded and got in the car.

After watching the commander's car leave, Qin Feng just turned around and was hugged on the shoulders.

Ge Zhiyong came up and said with a smile, "Captain Qin, are you ready to have a big fight with your battalion commander?"

Qin Feng smiled and said, "Comrade Battalion Commander, I am always ready!"

"Deputy company commander, deputy company commander!"

At this time, a sentry came running over in a hurry.

Obviously, he didn't know that Qin Feng had been promoted to company commander.

"What's wrong?" Qin Feng asked.

"Someone looking for you."

"Who?"

"Your girlfriend."

"?????"

Qin Feng had a strange expression on his face: "What nonsense! Where did I get a girlfriend?"

Ge Zhiyong pointed at him with a malicious look on his face: "Qin Feng, Qin Feng, I thought you were really like a flower that could not get a single leaf on you. I didn't expect that you would mess up sometimes."

"Look, look! Just got promoted to company commander, and already you're in love?"

Qin Feng was completely confused and asked, "Where is the person?"

"She's sitting at the gate," the sentry said. "We heard it was your girlfriend, so we didn't dare to neglect her and invited her in first."

"However, without your approval, we dare not let anyone in rashly. What if..."

Qin Feng was speechless. What did that have to do with anything?

Before he could think of a solution, Ge Zhiyong grabbed his arm and ran towards the gate with a smile.

"Come on, come on, I have to see what my sister-in-law looks like!"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm a bachelor!"

Qin Feng was also feeling a little nervous.

Could it be that it’s really a debt of love from the past that’s come knocking on my door?

Shouldn't it be like this? I deleted everything.

Although he was very reluctant, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to see the situation first before thinking of a solution...
