Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 384 Captain Yuan??

As the morning sun bathed the earth, the female soldiers had their hoods removed, and even with the warm sunlight shining directly into their eyes, they felt no discomfort.

Jackie Chan, the living devil whom the female soldiers hated to the bone, stood right in front of them.

With arms outstretched and a smile, she said, "Ladies, congratulations on passing the anti-prisoner training and officially becoming members of the female special forces team codenamed 'Phoenix'."

Jackie Chan used to laugh often, but today's laugh was quite different from his usual one.

The laughter of the past is now as cold as a demon.

Today's smile is as warm as sunshine.

The official code name for the Phoenix Special Forces was suggested by Jackie Chan to his superiors.

Jackie Chan's personal influence was significant, and since he was responsible for the entire development of the women's special forces team, the higher-ups ultimately adopted his suggestion.

"That's it???"

He Lu and the other female soldiers were not happy at first. Instead, they stared wide-eyed and slightly open-mouthed in astonishment, clearly unable to believe it was true.

They were caught halfway through the race, so how did they pass the test and succeed?

The female soldiers couldn't believe it!

They thought that even more brutal training awaited them.

"What? No reaction? Should we continue practicing for a few more days? I'd be very willing if you just nodded now."

When Jackie Chan said that, the female soldier finally reacted.

Like a stone thrown into a pond, creating ripples all around!

"I don't want to!"

The female soldiers, realizing what was happening, shouted in unison and jumped up and down excitedly as if it were New Year's Day, or hugged each other and danced wildly.

This is a historic moment, and it is indeed something for the female soldiers to cheer for.

However, this is only the beginning of the harvest.

After the female soldiers had been happy for a minute or two and had released their pent-up emotions, Jackie Chan then began to arrange the remaining tasks.

First, he explained why the female soldiers were able to pass, and then he gave individual comments on each of them.

They were told their strengths, but their weaknesses were also mentioned.

He made it clear that being selected was just the beginning, and that people shouldn't think that things would be easier afterward. Wrong, being selected was just the beginning of the real ordeal.

I hope the female soldiers are mentally prepared and ready to hone themselves with hard work.

After rattling off a long string of words, Jackie Chan finally announced something.

That's to celebrate the formation of the Phoenix Special Forces. In the afternoon, the leaders of the military region will come in person, and the female soldiers will have half a day to take good care of themselves.

There is only one requirement—

I don't seek beauty or elegance, only cleanliness and dashing appearance.

After being locked up in the prisoner-of-war cell for two nights and three days, during which they were subjected to various forms of torture, the female soldiers' bodies were worn out and they could no longer endure it.

After the group dispersed, they ran like the wind, rushing into the bathhouse with joy and excitement.

Jackie Chan looked at the few remaining trainees, put his hands on his hips with satisfaction, and exchanged glances with Wu Zhe and the other instructors, all of whom couldn't help but smile.

It was really not easy to select these eight seedlings.

The female soldiers worked hard, and the instructors had it just as tough.

The most difficult step has now been taken. What remains is a long and complex series of specialized skills training, covering hundreds of items and encompassing land, sea, and air.

These female soldiers, who know nothing, have only passed the basic level so far.

This proves that these female soldiers are good steel billets!

The subsequent special operations skills training is also a considerable challenge, and due to its high level of specialization, it is even more difficult than the training during the initial training period.

After all, of the two training methods, physical and mental, the latter is clearly of a higher level.

Teaching these eight novices will be a considerable challenge for Jackie Chan and his group of men, as there are differences between teaching women and men.

but.

With Jackie Chan, a professional veteran special forces instructor, forming the Phoenix Special Forces team is not a problem at all; it's just a matter of time.

After all, there had been successful cases before Jackie Chan came here.

The newly formed Lone Wolf Commando Team B has now fully matured and is younger than Team A, destined to become the core of Wolf Fang.

It was a little after 3 p.m.

More than a dozen military vehicles drove up in a row, and about a hundred people got out of the vehicles.

The scene was spectacular!

Almost all the core units of the military region headquarters have arrived, demonstrating how much importance the leaders at all levels of the Southeast Military Region attach to the formation of the first special forces unit—the Phoenix Special Operations Team.

Jackie Chan has seen his share of big events, and even more impressive ones.

Faced with a large group of leaders from the military region, he remained calm and composed, and as the person in charge of the base, he completed his report to the leaders.

Instructors Wu Zhe and others were all seasoned veterans and were not at all reserved in such a large-scale setting.

A graceful and generous welcome, showcasing the demeanor of the Ace of Spades.

The female soldiers are different!

Even though they come from government agencies and logistics units, and are surrounded by leaders who they often encounter on the street, it is completely different from the grassroots level.

But seeing so many leaders at once, especially since they came specifically for them, was a first for me.

Seeing the parade ground packed with hundreds of people watching the eight of them, the female soldiers had incredibly mixed feelings.

They felt happy, excited, and thrilled, enjoying this success that had garnered worldwide attention.

There is also fear, tension, and unease, worrying about leaving a bad impression on the leader.

As for the leader's speech...

It's the same old set, not too bad, not too bad.

After discussing various aspects of patriotism and the spirit of struggle, we finally got down to business.

The original intention behind the creation of the Phoenix Special Forces, its value and far-reaching significance, and what kind of achievements are hoped to be made in the future, etc.

After rambling on and on, only one thing really mattered.

That means officially promoting Long Xiaoyun to captain of the Phoenix Commando Team, responsible for the team's daily management and training.

Finally, he specifically mentioned follow-up training matters.

The training was still conducted by the Old A Instructor Team, and the training location was still this special training ground, which the military region designated as the Phoenix Special Forces Base.

The specific training duration was not mentioned; it was only stated that the training would continue until the Phoenix Commando Team possessed combat capabilities.

This statement is essentially a standard; the end is when the standard is reached.

With the personal presence and speeches of the leaders of the Southeast Military Region, the Phoenix Special Forces were officially established, marking the start of a new phase.

A celebration banquet was arranged that evening, and the female soldiers finally got to eat their first hot meal.

It has been three months since we last ate a meal together.

Upon tasting the long-missed flavors again, some female soldiers couldn't help but feast, while others were so moved that they cried, tears streaming down their faces.

This meal was hard-won!

Jackie Chan was no longer as cunning as before, and for once, he genuinely rewarded the female soldiers.

The female soldiers were given a day off specifically, the kind of leave they could ask to go out. If any female soldier wanted to go out, she could change into civilian clothes according to the rules, and then a car would be arranged to pick her up and drop her off.

This arrangement perfectly balances work and rest.

The female soldiers hadn't had a break in a long time, and had been out of society for three months. They were overjoyed to be able to go out on the streets.

All eight people applied to go to the streets without exception.

Because the day was short and tight, the female soldiers changed into civilian clothes early the next morning, and each of them dressed up and transformed into a young girl.

I boarded two SUVs arranged by Jackie Chan and began my long-awaited shopping spree.

Happy times always seem to pass too quickly.

After a day of fun, the female soldiers returned to base and had to readjust their emotions and moods before embarking on their second phase of training.

Special operations skills training!

To become a professional special forces soldier, it's not enough to just have good physical fitness, run fast, or have a strong will.

These are merely the most basic requirements, equivalent to a knife being just a steel billet.

Only after undergoing various special operations training and mastering hundreds or even thousands of skills can one be qualified to become a special forces soldier.

Special driving, reconnaissance behind enemy lines, electronic warfare, team operations, tactical shooting, tactical maneuvers, naval landing, high-altitude parachuting, CQB, etc.

Each training exercise was like a solid hammer blow, striking the steel billet hard.

Push the steel billet toward the sharp blade!

Each of these special operations skills is very difficult and cannot be mastered quickly in a short period of time; they all require rigorous training and gradual development.

to be honest.

It just takes time to accumulate.

Even with all that training combined, even at the highest intensity and in the most scientific way, it would conservatively take years to complete.

The female soldiers all came from the headquarters and logistics departments, and their combat skills were not even as good as those of the rank and file soldiers. They didn't even know the most basic squad formations.

Starting from scratch in a truly meaningful way.

Therefore, it will take longer for the Phoenix Special Forces to become combat-ready than it would take to select them from the grassroots level; conservatively speaking, it will take at least a year.

In fact, the total training time, including everything, did take almost a year.

The bachelors of the Ace of Spades Commando and the bachelors of the Phoenix Team, living together every day, have developed a deep bond.

Some of their glances seemed off; there was already a hint of something more going on.

With Jackie Chan successfully forming another special forces team, he unsurprisingly became a hot commodity in the entire military. Every military region wanted Jackie Chan to provide guidance and to be in charge of building a top-notch special forces team.

Therefore, Jackie Chan only personally instructed the Phoenix Special Forces team for about six months in the early stages.

Including special training and selection, it takes a total of nine months.

All subsequent training was handed over to Cheng Cai, including but not limited to leading female soldiers in simulated combat exercises, and even finding opportunities to take them to participate in actual combat.

As the "tiger" in a family of dragon and tiger brothers, Chengcai's growth rate is very fast.

By channeling his opportunistic tendencies into legitimate pursuits, Cheng Cai realized that computers would become central to the future. He then taught himself computer programming, transforming himself into a highly skilled technical expert.

He will act as Jackie Chan's representative and lead the Phoenix Special Forces, with Tu Yonggang, Wu Liuyi, and others assisting him.

More than enough!

Under orders from the General Staff leadership, Jackie Chan, along with his academically gifted assistant Wu Zhe, returned to the capital ahead of time to receive new assignments from his superiors.

The whole process really is like feeding an animal; you make sure it's full before you start working.

Before accepting the mission, Jackie Chan and Wu Zhe also received "feeding" from their superiors.

Jackie Chan entered military academy as a non-commissioned officer, was promoted to captain upon graduation, and rose to major after winning honors for his country abroad. Two years later, he has finally received another promotion.

He's been promoted to lieutenant colonel!

In terms of military rank, he had already reached the same level as his former superior, Yuan Lang, who was a lieutenant colonel from the very beginning, and caught up with Yuan Lang at an astonishing speed.

And this miraculous transformation...

From the first day I met Yuan Lang until now, it's only been a little over 5 years.

Jackie Chan's military service, from enlisting as a private, has lasted less than nine years.

It takes a normal person at least twenty years to rise from private to lieutenant colonel, but Jackie Chan only took a little over eight years, which is equivalent to one-third of the time.

That speed is even faster than riding a rocket!!

Looking across the entire army, he is absolutely unique; there is no one more formidable than Jackie Chan.

If Yuan Lang hadn't been promoted a year ago to become the colonel and deputy battalion commander of the Old A unit...

Jackie Chan and Yuan Lang have gone from being superior and subordinate, and by a huge margin, to being equal colleagues.

of course.

It's not that Yuan Lang is incompetent or that he rose slowly; Yuan Lang is a prodigy.

Indeed, his position was already too high, and the unit he belonged to was too special, representing the ceiling of special operations, with no one higher up.

It's too late to get promoted!

Old A is already the ceiling of the special forces, and the position of battalion commander is blocked.

The current battalion commander, Tie Lu, is not leaving because there are no other superior units he can be transferred to; any further promotion would require leaving Old A, this front-line special operations force.

Therefore, since the railway hasn't been relocated yet, Yuan Lang has no room for promotion.

Unless Old A is promoted from a regimental-level unit to a brigade, becoming a special operations brigade, and Railway is promoted to brigade commander, Yuan Lang can easily be promoted to battalion commander.

However, given the current situation, the expansion and upgrading of Team A is unreliable, as there is absolutely no news about it.

One thing is certain: it won't be long before Railway is promoted and transferred to the General Staff or a military region.

After all, the railway officer had recently been officially promoted to the rank of senior colonel.

If he were placed in a grassroots unit or another unit, he wouldn't stay in the old A regimental-level unit. He would be more than qualified to be a division commander.

However, even within the A-team unit, the railway's rank was already highly inappropriate.

Even if they were unwilling, they had no choice but to be transferred to the government office.

Once the railway continues to advance further and the position of battalion commander becomes vacant, the best company commander in Battalion A will rightfully be promoted.

He will be promoted from the current squad leader to the brigade leader.

Jackie Chan was promoted to lieutenant colonel and received a host of honors.

This time, unusually, no first-class merit was awarded, and it is also the only one in recent award ceremonies without a first-class merit; the majority of the awards were second-class merits.

Following that was a pile of awards and honorary titles, a thick stack of them like a wholesale shipment.

When the news of this second-class merit reaches back home, Cheng Guofu, the father, will probably be numb with shock.

Because in recent years, Lao Cheng's family has been sending various honors and awards to the village with great fanfare, and they have already done so several times.

Especially the two sons of the Lao Cheng family, who have received first-class merit, second-class merit, third-class merit, and other honorary titles...

They kept sending them home as if they were free.

The threshold is practically worn out from all the footsteps!

The two brothers have received various honors, totaling more than twenty yuan, which are too many to display in their home. Cheng Guofu had to build a new empty house next to it specifically to hang the gold plaques of honor.

In other families, a single piece of paper is treasured, and the family tree can be written on the first page, and it's even on a separate page.

The Cheng family is really something!

There were so many honors and achievements that there was nowhere to display them, so they had to be housed in a separate room.

Moreover, now not only the person in charge of the family genealogy has come to talk to Cheng Guofu about the genealogy, but even the head of the Cheng family has come over.

Leaving aside how many pages Jackie Chan could appear on, his family tree should at least have three pages dedicated to him.

And it must be the homepage!!

It was precisely because Jackie Chan was so outrageous, accumulating more first-class merits than the entire province combined, that even the provincial armed forces department couldn't stand it anymore.

Special permission was granted to erect three tall monuments in front of Lao Cheng's house.

A family of first-class meritorious service recipients, a family of honorary meritorious service recipients, and a family that loves the military and is skilled in martial arts.

Even Xiaorongshu Village benefited from this, and together they erected a five-meter-high monument at the village entrance, inscribed with several powerful characters—

Village of Heroes!!

Jackie Chan single-handedly transformed the entire village, making it famous throughout the province and even the country.
