There had been too many new requests and missions in the division over the past few days, so Qu Sen was not surprised when he heard this.
He thought for a moment and said, "Haizi, take care of the regular missions. Ask for He Changhong's opinion. Don't write them too idealistic.
I'll take care of the non-regular missions. Tomorrow, when the special forces have a meeting, we can discuss it with them.
Since the mission has been handed to us, let's do it properly. Come up with something with actual combat value. It's not good to make all these bureaucratic speeches. "
"Understood. Just wait and see." Kou Hai had been staying up late to prepare the information for the past two days, so he was a little thin. After hearing Qu Sen's words, he felt refreshed and agreed without thinking.
The others at the table were also thinking, "Comrade Old Qu usually laughs all day, but at critical moments, he's really a tough person."
Thus, the next day, after Qu Sen finished his class, he ran to the special forces for a "meeting" under everyone's slightly admiring gazes.

On March 17th, An Jingzhe finally completed his "inspection" of the entire military region and returned to the special forces with the final name list.
There were 270 people on the name list. They were left after the first round of selection from nearly 500 applications.
There were first class soldiers, first, second, and third class sergeants, first lieutenant, and second lieutenant. They came from different basic units in the military region.
They would go through a series of competitions and eliminations to leave 81 people to make up for the special forces' shortfall.
On the 19th of March, all the participants had gathered in the synthetic division and passed a physical examination and mental evaluation.
After a solid night's rest, at seven o 'clock in the morning on March 20th, they boarded eight military trucks and drove toward the special forces' encampment in a mighty manner.
Sitting in the back of the truck, some people were full of fighting spirit, while others hid their worries and chatted with the people around them. There were also some who were cool and silent, quietly waiting for the special forces to make their move.
The reason for this was that before they boarded the truck, the participants were asked to fill their water bottles and each person was given a piece of field rations.
That's right, it was a piece, not a bag.
Those who dared to participate in the selection were not fools. Through this detail, everyone could guess that it would not be easy to enter the special forces today.
Moreover, the car that they were in now could not send them directly to their destination. Most likely, it would drive them halfway, or even somewhere unknown. After dropping them off, it would turn around and leave.
It turned out that everyone's guess was right. After the eight military trucks left Jing City, they drove for half an hour before stopping by the roadside.
Then, the vice-captain of the special forces with the surname Qiao jumped down from the front passenger seat and called for everyone to get out of the car and form teams of ten people.
Although the contestants were not familiar with each other, they still had the most basic military qualities. Ten seconds later, the formation of ten rows and twenty-seven columns was completed.
Qiao Shan watched expressionlessly as everyone got into position. Then, she walked to the front of the group unhurriedly and took out a military map from her pocket. She opened it and said, "Remember your groups now. Then, get to the designated location as fast as you can!"
After saying that, Qiao Shan casually shoved the map to a soldier standing in the first row and turned around to get into the car.
After the roar of the engine, the truck and Qiao Shan's off-road vehicle were gone. Only two hundred and seventy contestants were left standing in a line.
"Brothers, don't just stand there! Didn't you hear what she said about the fastest speed? "One of the tender-skinned men in the line shouted at the top of his voice.
The one who shouted was Xu Han. His organization belonged to the General Staff Department. Like Zhou Li, he belonged to the Synthetic Combat Division. He was there to test and practice the various tactical ideas of the information battlefield support platform.
Xu Han, who had been working in an office since graduating from university, had always yearned for the front line and the battlefield. This time, when he saw that the special forces needed members with computer skills, he quickly made an application.
However, as soon as he handed it in, he was rejected with the excuse of "not belonging to the military."
Eldest Young Master Xu was full of confidence that he would be selected. When he saw that he was eliminated without doing anything, he became anxious.
The leaders of the Synthetic Combat Division were nagged by him one by one. In the end, when they saw An Jingzhe, they immediately stuck close to him and tried to sell themselves to him.
An Jingzhe was also inexperienced. He was fooled by Xu Han and personally saw him operate the computer in a dazzling manner (actually, he hacked the division's server and hacked into the surveillance system). He was shocked on the spot.
After watching Xu Han's performance, An Jingzhe didn't need to rush him anymore. He took the initiative to talk to Yue Jianjun.
An Jingzhe didn't know who Xu Han's father was, but Yue Jianjun did. Although Xu Nanguan was a high-ranking official, strictly speaking, he was defeated by Old Yue.
During the "Storm" exercise, the two of them were the commanders of the Red Team and the Blue Team respectively. In the end, the Blue Team, which was Yue Jianjun, won.
After the exercise ended, Xu Nanguan immediately sent out a group of military officers to visit the Blue Team's modern command system and the advanced equipment of the troops below.
During the conclusion stage of the exercise, Xu Nanguan made a profound self-reflection.
Not only did he review his overall command mistakes, but he also reviewed his command center when it was suddenly attacked by the Blue Team's special forces. Instead of choosing a more flexible response, he stubbornly chose to resist. As a result, the entire command center was destroyed.
Old Xu's self-reflection was not for show. Instead, it was a serious and detailed analysis of all his personal mistakes during the entire exercise. It fully displayed the responsibility and courage of a high-ranking officer.
Yue Jianjun admired Xu Nanguan from the bottom of his heart. At the same time, he was also inexperienced and had a wicked sense of humor.
After listening to An Jingzhe's advocacy, he thought about it for a while and felt that Xu Han was definitely a talent. Even if he failed to qualify for the special forces, it would be quite good to be able to stay in the division. Therefore, he came up with a "wicked move".
He wanted Xu Han to find his own way to get into the Synthetic Combat Division. This way, he could legitimately participate in the selection for the special forces.
Moreover, even if he failed the selection, he could still provide tactical support for the special forces in the command center in the future. It was equivalent to participating in actual combat.
After Xu Han was tricked by An Jingzhe, he directly called his father's office.
Xu Nanguan was conflicted about Xu Han's request. On the one hand, he had a son at an old age. He hoped that his son could get into some technical work and then get married and have children smoothly.
On the other hand, he had experienced war. In his bones, he believed that soldiers who had not been on the battlefield were not real soldiers.
After a night of conflict, Old Xu asked his secretary to handle the transfer procedures for his son early the next morning. Although the unit to be transferred was the Synthetic Combat Division, he did not contact Yue Jianjun from beginning to end.
He used this to express his attitude. "Don't treat him as my son. Use him however you want!"
Just like that, although Xu Han's foundation in military subjects was a little weak, he successfully passed the preliminary selection with his professional skills and entered the list of 270 people.

The people who were still a little dumbfounded instantly came to their senses after Eldest Young Master Xu shouted. A few impatient people quickly confirmed the direction according to the mark on the map.
Then, he led everyone down the roadbed and into the forest.
The environment was high and the forest was dense. They only had a map in their hands and did not have a compass or other auxiliary equipment. However, how many people could enter the list of 270 people for free?
Basically, they did not take any detours. After more than two hours, the team arrived at the designated location.
The mark on the map was very easy to recognize because it could be seen from afar. There were two people standing there with a lot of picks and shovels.
When they walked closer, they saw a pile of tools with two sacks next to it. There was a white line drawn with white ash that could not be seen on both sides.
The two people standing there were Jiang Zeyi, who was in charge of surveying the communication line in the direction of the Quick Reaction Battalion, and the monitor of the surveying and mapping team.
Seeing a large group of tired and sweaty people approaching, the monitor of the surveying and mapping team shouted with a dark face, "Gather!"
Although they were tired, the candidates knew that the main show was about to begin. They lined up as quickly as possible.
"Everyone has worked hard!" Jiang Zeyi was really not a person who was suitable to play the bad guy. After a very polite greeting, he began to introduce everyone's next task.
He pointed at the white line with his foot. "Next, you need to start digging communication channels from under my feet to both sides along the white line. The requirement is that it is 1.5 meters deep and 1 meter wide. "
After the main task was explained, Jiang Zeyi pointed at the two sacks. "There are tape gauges, iodophor, band-aids, and gloves inside. Everyone, pay attention to labor protection when you work."
"How long is this line?" someone in the team asked. He probably wanted to calculate how far one person had to dig on average.
"Not far, five kilometers!" Jiang Zeyi answered in a very relaxed tone.
If 270 people dug five kilometers, on average, one person would dig about 19 meters. Therefore, Jiang Zeyi found that the group of people in front of him looked as if they wanted to beat him up.
A gentleman would not stand under a collapsing wall. Therefore, Comrade Jiang reached out his hand and called the monitor of the surveying and mapping team. The two of them did not say a word and directly started to talk.
"Brothers, let's start!" Based on the color of his skin, one of the team's first lieutenants was in a basic company. He called out with a slight smile and was the first to walk towards the tool team.
He rummaged through the sacks and pulled out the tape gauges that were tied together. He shouted at the people who gathered behind him, "Measure the gauges first. We have a total of 27 teams, and each team is 1851.1 meters. Then, each team will divide themselves. "
No one had any objections to the division of one against two, and they divided themselves into groups of ten like before. They each took their tools and gloves and began to divide the digging sections from the center point.
The monitor of the surveying and mapping team, who had not walked far, looked back and said with a smirk, "Engineer Jiang, you're really bad. They've divided themselves into two groups. Later, when they find out that the spot you were standing at wasn't the center point, they'll scold you to death! "
"Didn't you see the look in their eyes just now?" Jiang Zeyi asked in annoyance. Then, he said with some annoyance, "I'm still too kind. If I knew this would happen, I would have listened to Qu Sen. One kilometer on one side and four kilometers on the other.
