Chapter 110: Lunyu and Three Strangers (Please collect!)
The questions asked by the new recruits can be described as bizarre. Some of the questions were so weird that even the three veteran soldiers couldn't answer them. They were very out of the ordinary.

"Old Xue, do you have anything you want to ask our squad leader? I see you seem to be very interested in those heavy armored combined brigades?"

Ji Bai tilted his head and stared at Xue Daochao, as if he wanted to know what was in Xue Daochao's mind.

Anyway, there is no need to consider the three of them anymore.

According to what squad leader Chen Ting said before, as long as there are no unexpected performance issues, he will basically be 100% able to pass the special operations brigade's advance selection assessment.

Therefore, the three of them did not have any big questions to ask Chen Ting. The answers to the questions they had had been asked normally had already been answered. The question-and-answer session here was mainly for those new recruits who seldom spoke or asked questions, so as to give them a systematic answer.

"No, I just couldn't help thinking about it."

"What are you thinking about?"

"I was thinking, we have the 82nd Army. According to what the platoon leader of the second platoon just said, a heavy combined brigade can sweep across a small country."

"What about our entire army?"

"With these six combined forces brigades plus other brigades, there are such advanced equipment."

"I dare not even imagine what kind of person our group army's commander is."

Xue Daochao said while shaking his head.

"emmmm~"

"I don't know why, but when you said this, I had no idea what it meant."

"I just feel that we have too few heavy-armored combined forces brigades, and there is no sense of security at all."

“This reminds me of what Confucius once said.”

Ji Baichang had a melancholy expression on his face, which attracted Lu Qinglong to come over:
"What did Confucius once say?"

He was quite curious. Could it be possible that Confucius, an ancient man, could have predicted their heavily armored combined brigade more than a thousand years later?

“Confucius once said:”

"Thirty is the time to establish oneself. Only when you have thirty heavily armed combined brigades can you have the capital to gain a foothold on this planet."

"At forty, we will not be confused. This means that with forty heavily armored combined forces brigades, there will be nothing on this planet that can confuse us."

"At fifty, one knows the destiny. This means that if we have fifty heavy-armored combined brigades, other countries on this planet will know that what we say is their destiny."

"At sixty, one's ears become obedient" means that we have sixty heavy-armored combined-armor brigades, and everything we say will be very pleasing to other countries' ears."

"Seventy and we can do whatever we want without breaking the rules. When we have seventy heavy combined brigades, then whatever we do will be in accordance with the rules of this planet."

"Stop, stop, stop! Where did you hear this nonsense?"

Ji Baichang wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Lu Qinglong.

What this guy says is all nonsense. Don't let it mislead others. What Confucius said has been misinterpreted by this guy.

"I'm not lying, that's exactly what it is. Otherwise, what did Confucius mean by that?"

Ji Baichang was a little unconvinced.

Seeing this, Lu Qinglong explained to him in detail:
"To be independent at thirty means that I need thirty enemies to be worthy of me standing up and fighting."

“Forty is the beginning of a new world. If forty people come to attack me, I will wonder where they get the courage from.”

"At fifty, one knows destiny. Fifty people will be beaten by me and think that I am their destiny, sent from heaven."

“At sixty, one’s ears become obedient. It takes sixty people saying nice things in my ears before I will let them go.”

After Lu Qinglong finished speaking, Ji Baichang and Xue Daochao stared at Lu Qinglong blankly, unable to utter a word for a long time.

"Good fellow! Others are learning the Analects, Qinglong! You are learning Lunyu!"

"You are being ridiculous!"

Ji Baichang really wanted to complain, but he found that what Lu Qinglong said seemed to be nothing serious!

Inside the club, the whole question-solving session about the new recruits' assignment to new companies was still going on. However, after the new recruits had been asking questions for almost half an hour and the three squad leaders were about to give up, everyone finally had a very simple concept.

Anyway, they are asking so many questions now, all miscellaneous and irrelevant. When the company and brigade list comes out, if their names are not what they want, then it will be meaningless.

After they figured it out, they saw it.

When the time comes, it will be based on your appearance when you are assigned to a new company. After the list of names of companies to be assigned to comes out, you can ask the squad leader of your class.

"Are there any more questions? If not, I'll ask the company commander and the instructor to come up and talk to you."

The officer on duty walked to the front and asked the recruits below.

The three veterans who had been sitting at the front also put their chairs aside, turned around and went through the back door to the back of the recruits.

"Nothing."

The recruits shook their heads in unison.

"Company commander."

The duty officer looked at the company commander Chen Tianjian in the back. Chen Tianjian and the instructor walked slowly to the front of all the new recruits.

The first thing the two company supervisors did was to turn around and write down their phone numbers on the blackboard behind them.

"This is my and your instructor's phone number. After you join the company, if you feel uncomfortable or encounter any difficulties, you can call me and your instructor."

"For the new recruits from our company, the two of us will be responsible for your after-sales service."

When Chen Tianjian said these words, the recruits inexplicably felt a little moisture in the corners of their eyes.

Thinking about the fact that I was about to leave the recruit company where I had been for almost three months, and that I was about to leave my squad leader and the soldiers of the same year around me, I felt very reluctant to leave.

"The company commander is right. You are the new recruits leaving the company. You can stay in the recruit company for less than two weeks. Cherish the remaining time."

"It's possible that these three months in the recruit company are when you are most like a soldier."

"After you are assigned to the company, you will really miss these three months of life as a recruit."

"Okay, I've finished talking to your company commander. Officer on duty, you can disperse and wash up."

After the instructor finished speaking, he followed the company commander and walked out of the club.

All the recruits seemed very quiet at this moment, staring blankly at the blackboard in the front, and no one knew what they were thinking.

It was only after the duty officer shouted to disband and the new recruits around them moved that everyone followed the queue back to their shifts to wash up.

Nowadays, the veterans will not force the recruits to complete the three hundred points, it all depends on their own initiative.

There were few lazy recruits among the new recruits. They all completed the three 100s honestly before washing up and going to bed.

"Huh? I heard there are female soldiers in the Strategic Support Brigade? And their missions are pretty easy, with almost no physical training."

"You said that if I were assigned there, I could definitely become a non-commissioned officer."

Song Si asked his fellow villager Aqiang.

Now he has basically been isolated by other people in the class, and only Aqiang is willing to talk to him occasionally.

"That's impossible. If someone hadn't asked before, the probability would be very small. Usually, only one recruit in a company will be assigned to the Strategic Support Brigade. You won't be that lucky."

"That's not certain! What if we are assigned to that place?"

Song Si said he didn't believe it and said that he was very likely the lucky one.

And he was very successful in getting the cold shoulder from his fellow villager.

Because of the meeting tonight, it was a little late, and Chen Ting did not let Ji Baichang and Xue Daochao go to the back mountain to practice thrusting.

Everyone went to bed early.

The next day was Saturday, a rare rest time for the recruits.

They would be given cell phones in the afternoon after they finished cleaning in the morning, so they would spend the rest of the time sitting by the window as usual, looking out the window bored, bragging about what awesome things they had done in the past, or talking about what kind of girl they had met.

The new recruits in the class thought it was just an ordinary weekend morning when the driving of a Dongfeng Mengshi vehicle broke the peace.

This Dongfeng Mengshi vehicle stopped directly in front of the door of the first battalion commander. A lieutenant wearing desert camouflage got out of it, accompanied by two first-term non-commissioned officers who were 1.8 meters tall and looked quite strong.

The three of them walked straight into the camp headquarters.

After a while, he came out and walked straight towards the first company.

There was a new recruit on duty at the company station. Seeing three people walking towards him, he was obviously a little flustered and was about to go up to ask them who they were looking for.

Unexpectedly, one of the first-term non-commissioned officers among the three of them reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said with some joy in his tone:
"Platoon leader! That's great! The new recruits are finally going to be assigned to companies. We can do less work!"

The platoon leader at the side looked at him and just shook his head speechlessly:
"You make it sound like I'm asking you to do a lot of work. New recruits are also human beings. You're already a non-commissioned officer. When you lead new recruits, you should ask them to do less work. You veterans get higher allowances, so you should do more work."

"Ah~ Platoon Leader, when I was a recruit, I worked so hard every day. Why are NCOs required to work more now? Then it's always the same group of people who work, right?"

"If you keep complaining, you can talk to the company commander directly. I'll see if he lets you work."

"Captain. Uh. Never mind."

The three men just passed by the company's new recruit on duty, completely ignoring him.

At the same time, the lieutenant looked left and right, as if to confirm where the company headquarters was.

The new recruits in the corridor also cast curious glances at the three strange people.

"The company headquarters is over here. You two just stay at the door and don't go in."

The lieutenant reminded the two of them, then turned around and pushed open the door of the company headquarters.

Chen Tianjian was the only one sitting in the company, seemingly processing some documents.

When he heard the door being pushed open, he subconsciously looked up and exchanged glances with the lieutenant. A look of surprise immediately appeared on his face:

"Zhou You? When did you come here? Why didn't you send me a message?"
