Soldiers Assault: Starting from the 7th Steel Company

Chapter 18: Report to the group
When Chen Jiang woke up again, he found himself lying on a bed in the infirmary.

What comes into view is a white scene, a white room, and white sheets.
Huh? Why is the room spinning so violently?

"Ugh~"

"Quick, Chen Jiang, spit here. Come here quickly and support his body!"

Chen Jiang wanted to vomit, but nothing came out.

Someone was patting my back hard. It was so strange. Although it hurt a little, I felt inexplicably comfortable.

When he lay down, he finally saw clearly that it was Shi Jin and Bai Tiejun who were taking care of him in the infirmary.

"Chen Jiang, you can't vomit anymore. You have vomited out all the bile. What will you use to give you courage in the future?" Bai Tiejun was as humorous as ever.

Chen Jiangting wanted to respond, but he couldn't turn his head. He felt that his body was somewhat out of control.

Fortunately, he can still make a sound.
"Squad leader, what's wrong with me?"

He has some short films in his mind.

"You don't remember?" It was Bai Tiejun who answered him with a look of disbelief on his face.

Chen Jiang tried hard to recall something, but his mind was blank.

He just stared blankly at the medicine dripping into his body.

"Oh no, squad leader! Did Chen Jiang become stupid after being trained too hard on the horizontal bar?" Bai Tiejun said with a sad face. "Next week's regimental newspaper will simply say: College student recruit Chen Jiang has become stupid due to excessive training! Alas!"

"Alright, alright, what's going on?" Shi Jin interrupted Bai Tiejun's antics and consoled him, "Chen Jiang, don't listen to his nonsense. This is the aftereffects of abdominal rotations. The doctor said that the prolonged spinning caused insufficient blood flow to your brain, which is why you fainted."

"Squad Leader, what time is it now?"

Chen Jiang suddenly remembered something. It seemed to be evening at that time, but looking at the sky now, it seemed to be dawn. Could it be that he slept for a whole night?

"You still know the time, you guy? You've been unconscious here for a day and two nights. If the military doctor hadn't told us that you were fine, the regiment commander would have sent you to the military district hospital."

What? I slept for so long?

Chen Jiang looked stunned.

"Don't worry about the training. The company commander has specially approved you to rest for three days!"

Bai Tiejun was envious. When had Gao Cheng ever allowed his soldiers to relax during training? Chen Jiang was an unprecedented move.

"Tiejun, how many of them did I sneak up there in the end?" Chen Jiang still remembered that his comrades counted them to him at the beginning, but later on, he could no longer hear or remember anything.

Bai Tiejun didn't answer, but just looked at Shi Jin with a sour expression.

The latter showed his white teeth and said with a smile, "You are really reckless. You have been hanging out there for 379 times! You have completely stunned Wu Liuyi and Chengcai!"

How much? Holy crap!
Chen Jiang never dreamed that he would set such an amazing record.

This record is hard to match for Chengcai and Wu Liuyi, and even Xu Sanduo, who may rise in the future, cannot catch up with it. It seems that this fight is worth it!

"The regiment commander has heard of your deeds. He's said 'unbelievable' three times in a row. He even asked Officer Zhang from the regiment's publicity department to interview you!"

When Shi Jin said this, he was sincerely happy for Chen Jiang. After all, it was his soldiers who showed up. This was not only an honor for Chen Jiang personally, but also an honor for the Third Squad and even the Seventh Steel Company.

"No, I need to get up and go train!"

Chen Jiang would not be complacent about this small achievement. If he lay in the army for three days, the training level he had accumulated before would regress a lot, which he could not tolerate. However, just when he wanted to sit up, he felt weak all over and dizzy.
Shi Jin and Bai Tiejun came over to stop them.

"Are you going to die? We've been taking care of you for a long time, and you've made us vomit all over the place."

"That's right. If anything happens to you again, how can you be worthy of the efforts of the squad leader and the others?"

The two were quite dissatisfied with Chen Jiang's stubbornness.
It’s right to attach importance to training and it’s right to be competitive, but you have to consider the occasion and the situation!
Seeing how concerned they were about him, Chen Jiang felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He could only smile awkwardly, "That's good now. I've become a seriously injured soldier in the 7th Steel Company."

Thinking back, Chen Jiang was also very upset.

Is this sequelae so serious?

He quickly called up his personal information panel.
I found that my health condition was indeed very unsatisfactory, but fortunately the system gave me reasonable advice: rest for at least two days and I should be able to recover!

Call ~
Chen Jiang felt relieved.

As long as you can recover, it's fine. At worst, you can make up for the training volume later.

At this moment, a military officer wearing glasses pushed the door open and walked in. When Chen Jiang saw the three-star badge on his shoulder, he subconsciously wanted to get up.

However, Bai Tiejun, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, quickly stopped him.

"Comrade Chen Jiang just woke up, and we haven't had time to report to you yet! Please give us your instructions!"

Shi Jin stood straight and reported loudly.

"Put it down, put it down, oh, relax a little." The officer did not have any airs at all and quickly asked Shi Jin to put down his right hand that was saluting.

Chen Jiang didn't even seem to have any of the heroic spirit of a military officer; he looked more like a news media worker.

Although they both wore glasses, his lenses were much thicker than those of Instructor He Hongtao. Most importantly, his hands were surprisingly white, which was rare in a combat unit like the 702nd Regiment.

Therefore, Chen Jiang probably had guessed who the other party was.

"Chen Jiang, right?"

The officer had a kind face.
"I'm the propaganda officer of the group. Everyone calls me Officer Zhang, but I don't like that name. Anyway, I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, just call me Old Zhang!"

Shi Jin and Bai Tiejun looked at each other in surprise. Although Secretary Zhang was a civilian officer, he was still an officer.

The rank of captain is the same as that of company commander. Should we call him Lao Zhang?

Is this appropriate?

Chen Jiang had heard of him before and knew that Secretary Zhang also graduated from a military academy, but his path was different from Gao Cheng's and he was a civilian.

Moreover, before Chen Jiang came, his academic qualifications were the highest in the entire 702nd Regiment, a bachelor's degree!
Not only that, he also has profound attainments in news photography and seal carving, and is particularly good at writing military news reports.

"I've actually wanted to interview you for a long time," Officer Zhang skillfully took out a recorder and a shorthand notebook, and after placing them in place, he officially entered the interview state.

"What do you think enabled you to accomplish such an incredible goal as 379 abdominal rotations?"

Chen Jiang was speechless for a moment. He couldn't say that a system helped him, right?

But to say that he relied entirely on his own willpower seemed too false. He glanced at Shi Jin,
"Secretary Zhang, I didn't think much of anything else at the time. I just felt that the squad leader and company commander were watching from the sidelines, and if I didn't do my job well, it would definitely bring shame to the Third Squad and the Seventh Company, so..."
