The hospital is too busy, so I'm going to join the army and become a top soldier!

He heard the technology instructor invite him to be a teaching assistant.

Shen Yan was momentarily stunned.

All I did was fly the drone once, right?

How did I suddenly go from being a student to a teaching assistant?

Isn't this a bit too big a leap?

"Reporting to the technical instructor."

Shen Yan couldn't help but remind me, "This is also my first time operating this kind of equipment. Would it be inappropriate for me to be a teaching assistant?"

"What's inappropriate?"

The technical instructor pointed to the drone that had just landed in the center of the white circle.

"In the military, learning skills isn't about who has the highest rank or the longest service; it's about who masters the skill best!"

"How many people here could say they could pull off that maneuver in one go?"

"Even among the division's technical backbone, there aren't many with your talent!"

The surrounding crowd fell silent, and no one responded.

The main problem is that I can't answer it!

If they stand up and say they can do it too, and the technical instructors actually make them fly it, wouldn't that be digging a hole for themselves?

Especially for determining location within weak signal areas.

This is no longer something that can be accomplished simply by memorizing the operating steps.

Operators also need to have a clear enough understanding of the drone's speed, direction, and spatial position.

In the entire training course, probably only a few experienced technical staff dared to say that they could try it.

As for whether he can perform as consistently as Shen Yan.

Then it's even harder to say!

Seeing that no one spoke, the technical instructor continued:

"I didn't ask you to teach the theory classes in my place."

"During the next basic operation training, you will come with me to patrol and help them correct their movements and operational problems."

"This will save me a lot of effort."

"How's it going? Can you finish it?"

Shen Yanli answered with a straight posture:

"able!"

"good!"

The technical instructor nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at Sun Haifeng, who was still staring blankly at the controller.

"Let's start with your group!"

Sun Haifeng's body stiffened slightly.

What the hell?

Starting with me?

When the technical instructor saw that he was still standing there without moving, his brows furrowed and he shouted loudly.

"What are you still doing with that controller?"

"Wait for it to fly up into the sky by itself?"

Sun Haifeng was clearly startled by the loud shout, and immediately stood at attention, saluted, and responded loudly in response.

"Reporting to the technical instructor!"

"I'll start right away!"

Sun Haifeng quickly snapped out of his daze and squatted down to inspect the drone.

He now has only one thought in his mind.

You absolutely cannot make a mistake!

He had previously suspected that Shen Yan was a relative, so he took the initiative to pull Shen Yan into the group, intending to test his skills during the practical training.

As a result, Shen Yan immediately completed a set of operations that were beyond the scope of the curriculum, and was directly appointed as a teaching assistant by the technical instructor.

Now it's my turn to operate.

If he makes mistakes even in basic subjects, how will he ever be able to hold his head high in front of Private Shen Yan again?

Sun Haifeng took a deep breath, checked the equipment according to the procedure, and then completed the connection and takeoff application.

After receiving permission, the drone took off successfully.

It must be said that Sun Haifeng does indeed have a solid technical foundation.

The takeoff, hovering, and simple turns were all completed very smoothly.

Several technical staff members who knew him well nodded secretly.

Although Lao Sun sometimes speaks bluntly and can be a bit stubborn.

But the fact that they were selected by the reconnaissance unit to participate in the training shows that they truly have real skills!

Sun Haifeng also breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately.

There were no problems with the basic operations.

As long as I perform consistently, even if I can't match Shen Yan's amazing skills just now, I won't embarrass myself!

But just as he steered the drone toward the target area, Shen Yan's voice came from the side.

"Squad Leader Sun, before observing the target, it's best to adjust the camera position halfway to the right."

Sun Haifeng frowned subconsciously.

Why?

"You can see the target from your current position, but the drone is too close to the training building on the left."

Shen Yan pointed to the screen on the control terminal.

"If you only adjust the viewing direction, the drone's sides are easily affected by turbulence near buildings, which will reduce the stability of the footage."

"First adjust the position to the right, then change the observation angle; the flight attitude will be more stable."

Sun Haifeng was somewhat skeptical.

He is still some distance from the training building.

How could it possibly be significantly affected?

But with the technical instructor standing right next to him, he couldn't argue directly with Shen Yan, so he could only adjust his position to the right as Shen Yan suggested.

Once the drone has stabilized, he will turn his observation direction back to the target.

The footage, which was initially swaying slightly due to airflow, quickly stabilized!

Sun Haifeng paused.

It actually works?

"Excellent, Instructor Shen's approach is very good!"

After praising Shen Yan, the technical instructor turned to Sun Haifeng and said:

"Entering the target area now to complete fixed-point observation!"

"yes!"

Sun Haifeng controlled the drone to continue moving forward.

As he approached the target area, he began to slow down.

However, he was clearly still operating the equipment in the same way he had used when operating other devices in the past.

The speed decreased too late.

Even as the drone approached its designated location, it maintained a relatively high speed.

Sun Haifeng could only increase the range of motion to force the drone to stop.

Although it did not reach the designated point in the end, its flight attitude clearly showed signs of swaying.

"It's too late to slow down."

Shen Yan reminded him again.

"Don't wait until you're almost at the designated location to stop."

"Drones are not people; you can simply retract your legs when you want to stop."

It now has flight speed and is also affected by airflow, so it must be given enough time to slow down and adjust.

It takes a lot of practice to master this!

Sun Haifeng's face felt hot at that moment.

He had just thought that there was nothing wrong with his actions.

But when compared to Shen Yan, the difference immediately becomes apparent!

I'm the one who's all talk and no action when it comes to Shen Yan!

The same principle applies to getting the drone to stop at a designated location.

He forced the plane to stop after flying nearby.

Shen Yan, however, would calculate the distance in advance, allowing the drone to naturally slow down and finally hover steadily above the target.

To an outsider, it might just seem like both of them completed the task.

Those who truly understand the craft can tell at a glance whose technique is better!

Sun Haifeng stopped arguing.

He regained control of the drone and returned to its starting position for another scheduled flight.

This time, following Shen Yan's advice, he slowed down in advance.

After the drone reached the designated area, although it still made some minor adjustments, its overall flight attitude was much more stable than before.

The technical instructor nodded.

"See that?"

"That's the role of a teaching assistant!"

"Although Xiao Shen's rank is lower than yours and his service is shorter, his skills are better, and he identifies problems more accurately than you. You should listen carefully!"

Sun Haifeng was completely humiliated.

But instead of being stubborn, he immediately replied:

"yes!"

It's important to know that military ranks and seniority are also important in the military.

But on the training field, only one thing matters: strength!

Shen Yan's actions just now were there, and now he has accurately pointed out my problem.

Even if Shen Yan was just a private, he would have to admit defeat!

If he continues to stubbornly refuse to submit, he will only embarrass himself!

The communications sergeant standing nearby saw this and secretly rejoiced.

Fortunately, I didn't join Sun Haifeng in being sarcastic.

Otherwise, I'd probably be one of those people being used as teaching cases now!

……

Next.

The training course began with basic operational training.

Shen Yan followed the technical instructor, checking the situation of each group one by one.

At first, many people looked somewhat awkward in front of Shen Yan, the private assistant instructor.

Most of the trainees present were non-commissioned officers, with a few grassroots cadres as well.

They felt somewhat awkward having a private standing beside them giving them instructions.

But this awkwardness didn't last long.

One trainee was unable to consistently transmit images back while observing a target.

He always thought the manipulation was too extreme, and after several adjustments, the situation did not improve significantly.

Shen Yan looked at it for a while and quickly discovered the problem.

"The issue of the range of manipulation."

"You were so focused on adjusting the drone's direction that you didn't pay attention to the crosswind."

"Lower the altitude a little to avoid the influence of the airflow above, and then change the viewing angle."

The student followed his instructions with some skepticism.

After the drone descended, the previously shaky footage indeed stabilized!

Another group searches for targets in complex areas.

The operator flew the drone around several times but still couldn't find the hidden marker.

Shen Yan didn't tell him the target location directly, but instead pointed to the road and embankment in the picture, reminding him:

"First, determine the drone's current location."

"Don't stare at the screen while searching. First, use ground markers to establish spatial locations, and then exclude areas that have already been searched."

Following Shen Yan's method, the student quickly narrowed down the search area and found the target hidden behind the abandoned bunker.

After several such incidents, the way everyone looked at Shen Yan completely changed.

This private not only knows how to operate the equipment himself, but he can also quickly spot other people's problems!

More importantly, he won't just say "You're wrong".

After pointing out a problem, he would clearly explain the cause of the problem and the adjustment method.

These technical experts already have a foundation; what they lack is familiarity with the new equipment.

After being reminded by Shen Yan, many people quickly corrected their mistakes.

Gradually, the way people addressed him began to change.

At first, it was still "that private".

Later it became "Shen Yan".

As the morning training session was nearing its end, someone had already started calling out from a distance:

"Assistant Professor Shen!"

"Come quick, help me take a look. Why is this thing starting to float again?"

Shen Yan's expression turned somewhat strange upon hearing this form of address.

Good guy.

These technical experts, whose ranks were several levels higher than his, really treated him like a teaching assistant!

Thinking of this, Shen Yan turned his head and glanced at his military rank.

The rank on his shoulder is still Private, but his own position has already been updated!

He had just walked over when a system notification suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Host participates in a tutorial on operating a small reconnaissance drone!]

[Experience in identifying abnormal drone states, analyzing flight paths, and observing targets has been strengthened!]

[Improved team reconnaissance and coordination capabilities!]

[The integration of dynamic image analysis and spatial location determination experience has been completed!]

[Improve proficiency in quickly reading portable battlefield ultrasonic images!]

Shen Yan paused slightly.

Teaching others to operate drones has somehow improved their ability to interpret battlefield ultrasonic images?

If you keep these two abilities in your head, you can't keep using them to endlessly cheat each other, right?

However, after thinking about it carefully, Shen Yan quickly understood the reason.

When operating the system, many actions rely on the experience transmitted to the mind by the system.

But when instructing others, he must break down these experiences, figure out why each action is done this way, and then explain it in an easy-to-understand way.

This process is equivalent to reorganizing the knowledge.

Not only did their experience in operating drones become more solid.

Even battlefield ultrasound, which also involves dynamic images and spatial location determination, has been improved!

As he felt his medical knowledge improving, Shen Yan's lips curled up slightly again.

I originally thought that being a teaching assistant was just about helping other students.

I didn't expect to be able to gain extra medical experience!

Since that's the case, then he won't hold back!

Next, Shen Yan ran even more actively on the training field.

He would immediately go and help any group that encountered a problem.

The technical instructor, seeing that Shen Yan was even busier than he, the actual instructor, was momentarily at a loss for words.

This kid really knows what he's doing!

Not only did he learn quickly, but after being appointed as a teaching assistant, he was eager to teach everyone in the training class!

This is a good soldier who is both talented and enthusiastic about learning, and is also willing to help his comrades.

If they are sent to the division's technical department for proper training, they might actually make achievements in the field of new unmanned reconnaissance equipment in the future!

During the lunch break.

The technical instructor specifically called Shen Yan aside.

"Shen Yan".

Have you considered developing your career in equipment technology and scientific research?

Shen Yan was stunned for a moment, looking at the technical instructor with the rank of major on his shoulder, completely bewildered.

"Huh? Me? Doing scientific research?"

"That's right!"

The technical instructor said earnestly:

"In recent years, the division headquarters has attached increasing importance to unmanned reconnaissance and battlefield information acquisition. After the new equipment was put into service, operators were needed."

We also need people who know how to use it, can identify problems, and can assist in equipment improvements!

"You have strong learning ability, good operational talent, and strong teaching ability."

"If you're willing, I can submit a report to my superiors so that you can participate more in the division's new equipment testing and technology research in the future."

"When the conditions are right, we'll find a way to transfer you to the division headquarters for further training!"

Shen Yan was surprised that someone was already trying to poach him on his first day of training.

Moreover, this time it wasn't a medical company or a military hospital.

It's the technical department of the entire division headquarters!

He sighed silently to himself.

Am I really that good?

Why is it that wherever I go, someone wants to poach me?

Unfortunately, I'm still hoping to improve my medical skills by joining the army!

"Thank you, instructor."

Shen Yan said seriously, "But I still want to stay in the Sharp Knife Company."

"I've just been assigned to my unit, and I still have a lot of military training to complete."

"Compared to focusing solely on technical research, I'd rather develop my career in a direction that combines frontline combat and battlefield medical care."

The technical instructor was somewhat disappointed.

"With a talent like yours, it's a real shame you're not pursuing technical research!"

Shen Yan smiled.

"I can continue learning about drones even if I stay at the grassroots level."

"Moreover, only by actually participating in training and exercises can we know whether this equipment is effective on the front lines."

After careful consideration, the technical instructor agreed with this statement.

Ultimately, technology must serve practical application.

Even if Shen Yan stays in the elite unit, he can still accumulate practical experience.

"OK."

I won't force you.

"If you change your mind later, you can come find me anytime!"

"My name is Xu Longzhan, and this is my contact information!"

"yes!"

The two did not deliberately avoid other people during their conversation.

Sun Haifeng and the others soon learned that the technical instructor was actually planning to take Shen Yan to the division headquarters to conduct scientific research!

Everyone stared wide-eyed with envy!

However, when she heard Shen Yan refuse without hesitation, she was shocked.

The group's eyes widened even more than before!

Shen Yan was dumbfounded?

What a great opportunity to get into the division headquarters!

But Shen Yan rejected him outright?

Are you kidding me!

That was a recommendation from Major Xu himself!

Does Shen Yan have no idea what he's missed?
