Shipborne Special Forces.

After the class meeting, Shen Long felt a little dizzy. It wasn't his first time leading a class meeting, but this was the first time he had encountered one with such a terrible problem.

However, he didn't come away empty-handed; at least he sensed Wang Aiguo's dedication to producing outstanding soldiers. Yes, a very strong dedication.

"Did the teacher say something to Wang Aiguo, or make some kind of agreement, that makes Wang Aiguo so eager to become an outstanding soldier?" Shen Long muttered as he walked back to his room.

Back in the room, Grandpa Bi was sitting in a chair reading a book. Shen Long looked at Grandpa Bi and said, "Captain Bi, I think Wang Aiguo is working really hard. If he passes the test this year, how about we give him an outstanding soldier award?"

"Come on, even if he passes, he'll barely meet the minimum passing standard. Besides, considering all the trouble he's caused, if I dare to give him the title of outstanding soldier, that instructor from before could come over and give me a set of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms." Grandpa Bi said without turning his head.

Shen Long looked embarrassed; he now felt that things were getting a bit complicated.

"Then is there any other way to get him to become an outstanding soldier?" Shen Long thought for a moment and then asked.

At this moment, Grandpa Bi put down the book in his hand, then turned to look at Shen Long with a strange look in his eyes.

"Why are you so interested in him? Do you even know him?"

"I don't know him, but seeing how hard he works despite being so overweight, I felt I should help him out."

Grandpa Bi took a deep breath and said after a long while, "Unless he can make a particularly great contribution."

"A particularly significant contribution? What kind of contribution can a recruit camp make?" Shen Long was taken aback.

Logically speaking, such a significant contribution would be being first in running, first in push-ups, first in physical fitness tests, and so on. But the question is, what does Wang Aiguo have to do with these things?

Shen Long didn't sleep well that night; he now felt that the task Wang Weihua had given him was a bit too difficult.

....

Time: February 11

Location: Chenyang Recruit Camp

Weather: Sunny, but a bit chilly

The recruit camp lasts for six months, but not all of that time is spent on drill training. Drill training only makes up half of the time; the other half is spent learning specialized courses.

Everyone's majors were assigned last week, and they are all very interested in learning their major courses. As for Wang Aiguo, he is happy as long as he doesn't have to do drill training.

However, before studying their majors, there was one last thing everyone had to do—perform a square formation.

The navy's hundred-person formation is very famous; you can refer to the National Day military parade for this.

Of course, the brigade headquarters did not expect Wang Aiguo and his team to reach the level of the honor guard. If judged by the standards of the honor guard, Wang Aiguo and his team would already be below the height requirement.

Therefore, the brigade headquarters only hoped that the new recruits could march in an orderly manner, at least to look like soldiers.

However, this led to a completely new problem: as the saying goes, "clothes make the man." If the physical infrastructure wasn't up to par, efforts had to be made to improve the external aspects. After some discussion, the brigade decided that everyone must wear white military uniforms when performing in formation.

It has to be said that the navy's white uniforms are much better looking than those of the army or rocket force, but for Wang Aiguo, whether the uniform looks good or not is not important; what matters is that he has to be able to wear the uniform.

....

On the morning of the square formation competition, everyone in Wang Aiguo's dormitory quickly got dressed, and then everyone gathered around Wang Aiguo. Some helped him pull up his clothes, some helped him button them, and some helped him pull in his stomach; in short, everyone was busy and having a great time.

"Three hundred, I have to say, although your weight hasn't gone down, your flesh has tightened up quite a bit. If your flesh hadn't tightened up now, you wouldn't even be able to fit into these clothes," Huang Gang said while frantically buttoning up Wang Aiguo's clothes.

Wang Aiguo doesn't dare to say a word now, because he's afraid that if he speaks too forcefully, the button will pop off.

After working for half a day, everyone finally managed to get Wang Aiguo's clothes sorted out.

Other people's white military uniforms look neat and smart, making them appear heroic and dashing. But when Wang Aiguo wears his white military uniform, he looks bulky, like a white rice dumpling.

Just as Wang Aiguo was about to speak, he took a breath, and everyone felt that his clothes tighten a little.

So everyone quickly said, "Calm down, don't breathe, or your clothes will tear."

"If I don't breathe, are you trying to kill me?" Wang Aiguo's voice trembled as he seemed to be forcefully suppressing his chest.

"Yes, just keep your mouth wide open and breathe in small, shallow breaths. Don't take deep breaths. Keep yourself steady," You Jiang instructed Wang Aiguo, who had frozen in place.

Just as Wang Aiguo's expression froze, Jia Qu's voice came from outside.

"Are you all ready? Let's go!"

"good!"

After saying that, a group of people helped Wang Aiguo walk out the door.

Upon arriving at the parade ground, everyone discovered that the battalion commander, along with a group of battalion leaders, was already sitting on the platform, watching the new recruits on the parade ground with great interest.

The performance order is based on the teams' order, like 12345. Of course, even if it were in reverse order, it wouldn't make much difference to the 12 teams, since they're in the middle section and the order before and after doesn't matter much.

A little while later, Team 11's performance ended, and then Wang Aiguo and the two leaders, the martial monk, led everyone to the playground.

A square formation is formed by everyone marching forward in perfect unison, and when they reach the captain's platform, they salute.

Just as Wang Aiguo and his men reached the brigade leader, Grandpa Bi roared from behind, "Salute!"

"Swish!" The recruits all turned their heads slightly and saluted the battalion commander.

At that moment, the captain saw Wang Aiguo's expression and was stunned.

It's understandable that everyone looks serious while marching in formation. But this wide grin, with a seemingly cheerful expression but eyes full of murderous intent, just looks very strange.

"Is this laughter, crying, or anger? What does it mean?" The captain was completely bewildered.

.......

The competition ended quickly, and this time the reward had nothing to do with Wang Aiguo's team of 12. They were just grateful that they didn't come in last place.

However, immediately after the results were announced, the captain notified Grandpa Bi and asked him to bring Wang Aiguo over.

When Wang Aiguo arrived, he still had that strange expression, as if someone had forcibly pinched his face to create it.

"Wang Aiguo, what's wrong with you? Everyone else is marching in formation so seriously, what's with that expression?"

Upon hearing the captain's words, Wang Aiguo immediately became anxious and quickly said, "That's not how it is, actually..."

Before he could finish speaking, the button on Wang Aiguo's chest popped off and hit the brigade leader directly in the eye.

Captain: "Ouch!!!!"
