From the 7th Steel Company to the Synthetic Division

Chapter 263 High Energy Point! Actual Combat Simulation Assessment!

The CQB that had troubled everyone in Team A became easy instantly for Chen Jun.

Almost all difficulties are solved.

It took less than a week to complete the CQB training course, which was originally stuck here and there and progressed extremely slowly.

Under the leadership of Chen Jun, the training went extremely smoothly and was carried out in an orderly manner.

In this regard.

Yuan Lang could only accept it with conviction.

In order to thank Chen Jun for his help to Team A, and to allow Chen Jun to give some suggestions so that Team A's practical simulation assessment can be more mature.

It just so happened that Chen Jun encountered the annual final assessment for new employees at this time.

So, at Yuan Lang's suggestion, the railway specially invited Chen Jun to join the director team to provide guidance, participate in the early plot design, and the subsequent practical simulation assessment.

Chen Jun had experienced this "graduation exam" for newcomers in his previous life.

As a party who has personally participated in the test, Chen Jun has sufficient understanding of this simulated assessment and is fully aware of its pros and cons.

Chen Jun was naturally willing to join as the railway personally invited him to do so.

So in the following week, Chen Jun worked closely with Yuan Lang to design and deploy the actual combat simulation assessment site.

Although the original design is similar overall, many details have been added by Chen Jun and are completely different from the original design.

Chen Jun was confident that with his design and modifications, this assessment would definitely become more realistic.

such as:

In order to make this abandoned warehouse look like a warehouse in use rather than an abandoned one, it was specially renovated.

They also brought a locomotive over and drove it for a day, pressing off all the rust on the rails and polishing them.

Adding some ingredients to the fake poison gas will not have any serious aftereffects or toxicity, but the smell will make people feel dizzy and nauseous.

And the actors who pretended to be thugs were required to wear chemical protective suits according to formal standards.

The blank bullet, which is the most easily exposed, has been upgraded by covering it with a camouflaged shell, making it look like a real bullet.

……

There are many such improvement plans. Although they cost more manpower and material resources, the cost is worth it as the place can be recycled.

Chen Jun was really curious.

In the original plot, Wu Zhe is the only academic master who can see through the problems in the assessment through careful observation and his rich personal knowledge reserves.

Can you see through it this time?
After the personnel for the actual combat simulation assessment were deployed, the newcomers who had just joined Team A also had their final graduation exam.

but.

This group of newcomers don’t know.

They were suddenly taken away by emergency orders without any knowledge of the situation.

They were taken away in a professional chemical protection vehicle, which contained several equipment boxes with chemical protection logos on them, and the chemical protection suits issued to them.

When Wu Zhe saw that it was a special nuclear, biological and chemical protective suit, he frowned first.

Something doesn't feel right!

Wu Liuyi, Chengcai and Xu Sanduo also felt that the atmosphere was not right, but they did not realize how dangerous it was and thought it was just a training exercise.

After all, since coming to Team A, Yuan Lang has never played by the rules.

They have experienced many shocking things.

The ability to withstand pressure is already very strong.

Qi Huang, who was sitting in the passenger seat with a gloomy face, used his acting skills to the fullest. After the car started, he seriously gave orders to the newcomers in the car.

"First level combat readiness, check weapons and equipment."

Upon hearing the first-level combat readiness order issued by Qi Huan, the faces of the newcomers including Wu Liuyi changed drastically, and they finally realized that something was wrong.

Level 2 combat readiness is already very serious in the army, and everyone has to carry their weapons with them when they sleep at night.

Not to mention the first level of combat readiness.

That is the order that will only be heard by the soldiers when a war actually breaks out or when the soldiers are on the brink of war.

More than 99 percent of domestic soldiers will never experience level one combat readiness throughout their military service.

This shows how taboo it is!
And such a strange thing appeared today without any warning. How could it not make the newcomers change color and be frightened?

The already silent atmosphere in the car became particularly depressing due to this level of combat readiness.

As the pressure on every newcomer doubled, they were all confused in their minds. Level 1 alert meant the outbreak of war, so where did the war come from in such a peaceful era?
It was in this confused state of mind that the chemical defense vehicle drove on the road for several hours.

The chemical defense vehicle, which had run for more than 200 kilometers in one day, finally stopped when it was gradually darkening and entered a temporary command center.

There are troops armed with live ammunition everywhere, showing the danger of the coming war.

After several hours of travel, the newcomers became even more nervous when they saw the command center's full-scale preparations.

The suspicion that this action was just an exercise gradually weakened.

The newcomers were not given any rest, but were immediately arranged to attend a meeting in the conference room. In the dimly lit large conference room, there were already hundreds of special forces soldiers gathered.

And they are all old A from the third squadron!

Various emergency reports were being broadcast on the super-large screen directly in front.

Except for Wu Zhe who still felt a little bit unbelievable, the other newcomers including Wu Liuyi and Chengcai had already believed that this was a real action.

Everyone's heart suddenly tightened when they thought about taking part in real combat.

This is the instinct for death!

No matter how brave you are or how well you have trained, once it comes to life and death, your body will instinctively become tense.

This is the body's most basic self-protection mechanism. Only when you feel fear will you know how to protect yourself.

It's like when a person stands on the edge of a cliff, the protection mechanism will make you afraid, so that you stay away from the cliff and ensure that you will not be in danger.

but.

Fear of death is human instinct.

But for a soldier born for war, he must try to overcome the fear brought by self-protection and turn fear into motivation for fighting.

Because soldiers must live and face death, and they must fight to the death to defend their country.

Wu Liuyi, Xu Sanduo and others have been in the army for more than three years, and they are all very clear about the duties of a soldier.

So even though they were nervous and afraid inside, they did not become cowardly.

Instead, he chose to suppress his inner emotions, walked step by step into the command center filled with a high-pressure atmosphere, and sat down in the designated position.

In this tense atmosphere, time passed very slowly, as if it was stuck.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

"Stand up~" followed by a loud command.

Everyone in the meeting room, who had been sitting in their seats waiting quietly and no one dared to speak, stood up from their seats in unison.

Wearing the combat uniform of Squadron A, a steel helmet, and with oil paint on his face, Captain Tie came to the podium in front with an expressionless face.

"sit down!"

The command sounded again.

The hundred or so special forces soldiers who had stood up sat down again in unison.

"Your squadron leader is out on official business. I will take over the command today."

Railway's expression is serious, and the opening remarks are very simple.

Then he asked the technician to play the video, and a reporter appeared on the big screen in front, holding a microphone and reporting the news.

“Dear viewers, this afternoon a group of organized anti-social elements hijacked our city’s Dongjiao No. 2 Chemical Raw Materials Processing Plant. They claimed that they had placed a large amount of explosives throughout the plant.

The police arrived at four o'clock in the afternoon and are now negotiating with the criminals. Military forces have also arrived to seal off the area.

We have learned from the police that they now have a large number of weapons in their hands..."

While the female reporter was reporting, she could hear various urgent alarms from the other side, and a large number of military and police officers appeared in the camera.

It can be seen that the situation is already very bad and danger may break out in the chemical plant at any time.

"Boom~Boom~"

Suddenly two explosions were heard.

"Stop filming, stop filming, it's dangerous, you need to leave quickly."

Thick smoke could be seen rising in the footage, and nearby military police immediately rushed over and forcibly interrupted the reporter's on-site reporting.

As the news report came to an abrupt end, the conference hall suddenly became silent.

The tense atmosphere became increasingly intense.

"Because of the social reaction that would be triggered by the announcement of this matter, the news you just saw was cancelled before it was broadcast. The situation I mentioned is unknown to all media."

Tieluo’s cold voice broke the silence, and he continued in a serious tone: “The chemical plant hijacked by the criminals stored a large amount of flammable and explosive chemicals such as phosphorus, nitrate, and potassium, a total of 10,457.

The explosion just now was just a demonstration. I think you are already aware of the seriousness of the matter.

Even if the criminals did not have explosives, the highly toxic gases released by the burning would be enough to turn the city into a deserted one.

If the poisonous gas were to drift away with the wind, the consequences would be disastrous.

What is even more troublesome is that the criminals have not made any demands yet. Citizens are undergoing emergency evacuation and surrounding troops have also been dispatched.

The action team sent by our base has now arrived at the scene. I hope they can resolve the crisis. If they fail..."

Tieluo deliberately paused here to create a more dangerous and tense atmosphere.

Then he continued, "Your Third Squadron is now the backup team, and the chemical defense equipment has been delivered. You must be ready for action at any time.

Now I order all members of the Third Squadron to stay here and not leave for any reason, including sleeping, eating, or even going to the toilet."

After Tieluo finished speaking, he went behind the big screen, which was the command room of the operation.

Then a logistics team came in and gave each soldier a box lunch, a bottle of water, and the necessary chemical defense equipment.

Seeing the railway captain say this, almost all the newcomers no longer have any doubts.

They all realized that a big war was about to begin, and in such a dangerous place as a chemical plant, they would most likely die inside if an explosion occurred.

The high tension brought about by death made all the newcomers start to feel panic.

In order to dispel this strong feeling of uneasiness, every newcomer tried to calm down in his own way, and the huge command hall was exceptionally quiet.

Some people start to eat quickly, hoping to relieve tension by eating and drinking enough.

Some people are like the lesson before an exam, frantically recalling in their minds all the skills they have learned and all the weapons and equipment they have come into contact with.

Just sharpen your sword before the battle, even if it's not sharp, it will be bright.

Some people are still trying to make a final struggle, still wanting to find the loopholes.

If you want to get actual proof, this is still an exercise.

The representative figure is Wu Zhe!

Unfortunately, when Wu Zhe took out the issued magazine and took out the bullets inside, wanting to see if they were blanks to confirm that this was an exercise.

It was discovered that the bullets issued all had bullets, which meant that they were given live ammunition.

This made his heart sink.

“Is this really an actual combat operation?”

No matter how worried Wu Zhe was about this, the facts before him forced him to believe it, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.

However, compared with Xu Sanduo and Chengcai at this moment, Wu Zhe's emotions are the most stable.

Thinking of Xu Sanduo who was killed by a bullet, his iconic silly grin could no longer be seen on his face, and all that was left was a face completely expressionless.

This means he is very nervous!

Although Chengcai said he was not afraid, he even ran over to comfort Xu Sanduo.

He also warned Xu Sanduo: "When you get to a place like that, there are only targets that can be hit and targets that cannot be hit. There are no good people or bad people. You must remember this."

In fact, he was extremely panicked at the moment, and his apparent calmness was all pretended.

He choked even when drinking water, which shows how upset he was.

Wu Liuyi is the only one among the three swordsmen of the Seventh Steel Company who has a stable mood comparable to Wu Zhe. His stubbornness makes his thinking very simple.

He didn't even think about whether he would die, his mind was filled with only one thought -

In this first actual combat operation, we must not lose face for the Seventh Company.

It was in this tense and uneasy atmosphere that time quickly came to bedtime and everyone had to unpack their backpacks and go to sleep.

Put a mattress on the ground or on the table, and it becomes the bed for everyone to sleep.

It’s not that particular!
The other old A's in the third squadron slept soundly because they had all experienced this before and knew very well that this was all a large-scale show.

Only the newcomers who were undergoing the test tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

I finally managed to fall asleep in the second half of the night, but before I had slept for long, when the day just started to brighten, the door of the hall was pushed open by Qi Huang.

"Get up, change your clothes, and get ready to go, quickly."

Following Qi Huang's signature loud roar, all the soldiers who were resting quickly got up and started putting on their equipment as quickly as possible.

The newlyweds were even more frightened.

Realizing that their research operation had not been successful, their reserve force had to be sent to the battlefield to fight the armed enemy.

The shadow of death suddenly loomed over me, and my heart suddenly rose to my throat.
