On Thursday afternoon, everyone looked forward to the all-encompassing battlefield analysis lecture. At this level, even Feng Yi had to sharpen his sword before the battle. As an instructor, he wasn't a tactical advisor, most of the time he would maintain order at the scene while listening to the professionals' explanations from the stage.
After all, Feng Yi was Feng Yi. Despite his extensive knowledge from childhood, he often approached things from a soldier's perspective. To some extent, Feng Yi was a soldier who had never considered commanding operations from a distance as a commander.
By Friday, Feng Yi often took time out to develop his own training plan. As for others, they could engage in free activities as they wished. Everything was under the command of the team leader, whether it was physical competition or fighting practice. As the saying goes, "The master teaches the trade, but the apprentice's skill is self-made." Feng Yi could only impart his own experiences and battle-related skills. Many things required independent understanding.
In the real devil's training sessions, rest over the weekend was not allowed. You either stayed or left. This was a military academy, yet Feng Yi had long treated the Wind Thunder training ground as if it were part of an army.
Training on Saturdays and Sundays would repeat what was covered from Monday to Friday. In other words, by the second Wednesday, the logistic soldiers would have completed two cycles of training. Feng Yi set the training period for half a month. In the next four days, he would give the soldiers a day off. For the remaining three days, he would lead them out of the Wind Thunder and take them to a primeval forest for wilderness survival.
The only thing the soldiers could do was to survive for three days relying on their own strength and wisdom. Of course, survival was only the basic requirement. Feng Yi might also issue some unforeseen special orders, such as completing a certain task within a limited time, or issuing no food and water, or even not issuing basic survival equipment. However, no one could make undue assumptions before Feng Yi issued his instructions. In this survival competition, automatic abdication and loss of consciousness were exceptions and would be evaluated accordingly.
However, the death rate among wilderness survival missions was relatively low. Then, using the locating devices, Feng Yi could always track the position of each soldier.
When it came time to test the results of the training, a cycle of training was nearing its end. It was Wednesday, yet none of the soldiers had plans to leave the academy. It seemed they were fully preparing for the field survival training the next morning.
Weirbo had already approved the related applications submitted by Feng Yi. Knowing that the soldiers hadn't left yet, Weirbo and Grand came to the training ground, spirited and invigorated. Many military counsellors also came with them.
Originally, a logistics unit would not usually receive any attention or consideration from the higher-ups. However, Feng Yi's team was different. Even his requirements would be given priority for analysis. By the time they found out, these requests were often approved without much delay.
No one knew why, but everything seemed fated. At this point, the Logistics Department could no longer be called a pure support unit. Without anyone consciously realising, the other department instructors and students had apparently completely recognised this group of veteran soldiers. Silently, everything seemed abrupt yet natural.
Indeed, the world is so wonderful. Sometimes, you don't need to deliberately prove anything, and others will easily acknowledge you. When your training intensity far exceeds others; when your military quality surpasses others; when your effort and sweat yield returns; you will be renewed from then on! Your effort, your will, are your proof.
The ups, downs, joys, and sorrows were probably only comprehensible to those who were in this situation. At this moment, each logistic soldier took pride in being a part of this crowd. This was their moment to be truly tested. Perhaps they still needed to enhance their competencies compared to the special forces soldiers who had truly been on the battlefield. However, compared to those pampered soldiers from the Field Department and Special Forces Department, they were more than capable.
In recent days, Feng Yi had taught them much knowledge related to wilderness survival. The three-day field survival examination would begin promptly at seven o'clock the next morning. Originally, the plan was to register at the academy at four in the morning, but now these soldiers didn't plan to leave the academy overnight.
Inside the instructor's office, a female counsellor was recording the requirements spoken by Feng Yi through a pencil and paper. In fact, it was also about what he hoped to distribute equally to the students in survival materials.
In short, whatever Feng Yi requested, Weirbo had decided to fully support as long as it didn't exceed his capacity, just cooperate with everything. Damn it, if a bunch of logistics soldiers could be trained like this, what reason would Weirbo have to refuse? Even Grand, who was the titular chief instructor, had already arrived at the primeval forest with the Dean in advance. He also intended to follow the transport vehicle to the primeval forest to observe the training results during this period.
To be frank, Weirbo had been observing for quite some time but he still hadn't completely figured out how this young man, Feng Yi, had managed to train a group of logistics soldiers into this state. Did he have any unique methods? Encouragement or reward-punishment system? Either way, he had arrived at Laka Laila's primeval forest in advance and was happily drinking a glass of wine in the commander's tent at the base camp.
Back at the Wind Thunder Military Academy, now dressed in jungle camouflage, the heartstrings of the soldiers were a mix of excitement and uneasiness. The testing of their training outcomes may not be intimidating for them, but the vastness of the Laka Laila primeval forest was. Stretching from point Q to M, the distance in between was nearly 200 kilometers. Everyone's task was to find the secret camp within this area to qualify. Each group of three was issued an electronic map.
In addition, each person was equipped with a single military knife, a can of canned food, half a bottle of water, and half a pound of beef. This was all they had to rely upon for three days. Emergency medical kits, antidotes, and rescue smoke bombs were not included in the count; they were simply provided to each group of soldiers in case of any unforeseen needs.
This survival test would directly affect the overall evaluation after enlistment. To ensure fairness, the three-person team was invariably assigned based on the minimum deviation in daily personal scores. In other words, the team leader could only carry two burdens, but it must be said that there were no underperformers in this logistics unit. Even the lowest performers were extremely talented.
"Daphne, come forward."
"Yes."
"Yuwen, come forward."
"Yes."
"Jiang Yan, come forward."
"Yes"
"The three of you form a group. After picking up your equipment, wait over there."
"Yes." The three of them answered in unison.
The morning sunrise had not risen yet, the air was filled with the scent of green, the numbers in the wind spread out... each soldier stood in place, energetic and sturdy. In the crisp and powerful roll call from Feng Yi, they marched out with big strides, pricked up their ears, and eagerly waited for their names to be called.
