Just as the teaching brigade was mobilizing before the game, next to the team of the reconnaissance company, the deputy company commander and several platoon commanders surrounded Zhang Dacang.

"Company commander, why can't we help each other?" Someone asked.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "What do you know? Teaching the brigade, you really think you are a vegetarian? The physical strength of their students is at the level of a quasi-squad leader, and in terms of physical strength, we may not be able to win. However, if we compare the skill of swimming and the proficiency of training, we are better than them, aren't we? If they let the veterans help the recruits, and they have fewer recruits than the veterans, they must have the advantage, and I am not so stupid. ”

"Haha! Company commander, wise! Several reconnaissance platoon commanders gave a thumbs up.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "The art of war is cloudy, and soldiers are not tired of deceit!" You all organize a little later, and kill the prestige of their teaching brigade today. ”

"Yes! Captain! ”

……

"Later, you are a good swimmer, and each of you is responsible for swimming with a comrade-in-arms who is a bad swimmer, saying that you can't help, but you don't say that you can't accompany you!"

At the beach, Luo Xiaoming rolled up his trousers and walked around his class queue, assigning combinations as if he were running five kilometers.

"Old confused! You are a veteran, and your swimming skills are good, and you swim with the solemnity! ”

"Okay!"

"Look at him, if he can't do it, let him get into the lifeboat!"

"Yes!"

"Squad leader, don't underestimate me too much, so that I won't be embarrassed at a critical moment." solemnly listened to Luo Xiaoming's words and was not happy.

He felt that Luo Xiaoming underestimated himself.

Although, he also knows very well that he may not really swim to the end.

"Okay, we soldiers can't brag with their mouths, if you want to be really awesome, just swim to me!" Luo Xiaoming snorted coldly, and then admonished: "Remember, don't be reckless for me, this is just a competition, if you can't do it, you really have to raise your hand and shout for help, and there is no shame in getting on the lifeboat!" ”

The dark clouds in the sky finally began to fall dripping with rain.

The wind on the surface of the sea is stronger than before.

The trainees and scouts threw themselves into the water one by one, and even Zhang Chengyuan, commander of the reconnaissance company, and Wen Zhixing, captain of the teaching brigade, were no exception, and they also carried their guns into the water.

On the assault boat, the soldiers in charge of support stretched their necks one by one and kept looking towards the starting point.

This is definitely the highest level of the five-kilometer swimming race in the whole division.

Generally speaking, there would not be such a long-distance swimming project between ordinary companies.

"Come on, brothers!"

"Come on, the teaching team!"

"Kill those grandsons of the Scout Company!"

"Kill those stupid trainees on the teaching team!"

The support personnel on both sides who did not enter the water were yelling on the boat.

A jeep drove to the side road of the training ground, and a colonel got out of the 212 jeep, heard shouts on the beach and on the sea from a distance, and couldn't help but walk towards the starting point of the swimming field.

"Hello Deputy Chief of Staff Cui!" When the squadron leader on duty saw someone coming, he stood up and saluted.

This colonel is none other than Cui Gaoyi, deputy chief of staff of the 1st Division, who is also the head of the team in charge of the work of the directly subordinate team.

"Li Bin, what are they doing?" Deputy Chief of Staff Cui returned the salute and asked bluntly: "It looks like it's very lively!" ”

Li Bin explained: "Deputy Chief of Staff, that's right, this morning our brigade and reconnaissance company launched a 5-kilometer swimming race, which is now underway. ”

"Competitions? 5km swimming? Cui Gaoyi raised his eyebrows, looking interested, these two units are the training units that roar in the team directly under the division, and they are the two strongest units, and they actually compete together?

Interesting!

Cui Gaoyi walked to the beach and found a big rock to sit down.

"After nine days of sea training, your teaching team will be able to swim 5 kilometers with all of you?" Cui Gaoyi asked in disbelief.

Li Bin said: "I haven't tried it, but the captain said, just try it today, let's teach the team to have good physical strength, one kilometer is swimming, five kilometers is also swimming." ”

Cui Gaoyi grinned and said, "Okay! I like the spirit of your teaching team to dare to fight, but I can remind you that I understand Zhang Chengyuan, he is a Tian Ji horse race! The five-kilometer swimming crossing is a compulsory training subject for the reconnaissance company, and he is taking advantage of the training team! ”

Li Bin said with a smile: "Deputy Chief of Staff, this is not necessarily, we have confidence in our students. ”

"Good! Just have faith! That's how soldiers are trained! It is to raise the standard to train, not to lower the standard to train. Cui Gaoyi said: "Okay, I won't leave today, I can just squat here with you and be a referee for you." ”

He turned to the driver and said, "Xiao He, bring my kettle, take my bed to the brigade headquarters of the teaching team, and let's spend the night here tonight." ”

Li Bin said, "I'm going to find you an umbrella?" ”

"No!" Cui Gaoyi said: "I'm not a girl, what umbrella do you want?" Fighting a war or holding an umbrella? Suspicious of life? Okay, that's it, it's good. ”

As he spoke, he crossed his feet, took out a cigarette, lit it, and handed it to Li Bin: "Do you want one?" ”

Li Bin smiled: "Thank you, Deputy Chief of Staff, I'm on duty." ”

Cui Gaoyi sighed, took back the cigarette, and nodded: "Yes, you are on duty." ”

With that, look into the distance.

The rain was getting heavier, the sky was getting darker, and the occasional thunder was heard.

The water in the bay, which is usually clear, is now muddy, and the waves are much more fierce than usual.

"It's not easy...... Cui Gaoyi smoked silently, frowning and staring at the sea.

The conditions were clearly not suitable for swimming, but he did not intend to stop.

For him, a veteran who has fought in the war, a soldier should be tempered in the worst environment, otherwise he will not become an elite soldier.

Majest had already choked on the third mouthful.

He glanced around, and there were far fewer people around.

Those who are good swimmers have already swam to the front, and those who can't swim have fallen behind.

solemnly looked back behind him, and he was not the slowest.

Now, he felt as if his feet had stiffened.

After a long time of leg pressing, the back of the thigh seems to be pasted with a layer of all-purpose glue, and it is dried in the sun.

The muscles and bones on the whole person seemed to fall apart, the oxygen in the lungs didn't seem to be enough to supply the body at all, the vision was a little black, and the head felt like it was going to faint.

"Old confused......" he glanced to the side with a pale face.

The old confusion is more than a meter away from him.

"Hold on!" The old confused said: "There are only two kilometers left, if you are really tired, grab the swimming ring, and then slowly hit the water, float for a few minutes to slow down, don't hold on, you will cramp!" ”

Zhuang Yan could only grab the swimming ring, listen to the old confused words, relax his body, and gently pat the water with the soles of his two feet.

However, he soon found that he could only get a little rest and not a little bit of progress.

There is always an inexplicable force in the sea, as if the shore is visible from afar, but no matter how hard you try, you can't shorten the distance between the two.

The most difficult thing to persist in long-distance swimming is willpower.

When people see that the coastline seems to never be close, they often choose to give up and then collapse.

"No......" solemnly lay on the water half-dead.

Now, he doesn't even want to do it by slapping the soles of his feet.

"You shoot the water slowly, don't stop, you don't want to swim anymore if you stop." The old confused was a little anxious, but he couldn't push the solemn walk, and it was found that he was going to cancel the results.

"No, no, no...... It's too much effort, I'm too tired......" solemnly grabbed the swimming ring, simply turned over, held the swimming ring on his back, and let the rain continue to hit his face.

It was a strange sensation, the joints were hot and the skin was chilling.

Ice and fire are flanked, cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

Suddenly, he saw a man swimming past him on his right side.

Subconsciously, he turned his head to look.

At first glance, I was surprised.

Li Yong!

That person was actually Li Yong from the reconnaissance company!

Your own enemies!

Li Yong also saw the solemnity at this time, and he didn't say anything.

As a recruit who has been in the army for half a year, although he was in contact with him earlier than Zhuang Zhuang in armed swimming, he was not as good as Zhuang Zhuang in terms of physical strength.

His situation is not much better.

On land, he must have given him a solemn middle finger.

But now, he didn't even want to spend more strength on raising his hand.

"Phew......"

He wanted to spit at Zhuangyan, but found that the strength of the spit was much weaker, and he only spat on the sea not far from his mouth.

"I'm grass!" solemnly stunned, he didn't expect this Li Yong to dare to do this damn action to himself.

Is he despising himself?

Thinking of this, solemn suddenly became angry.

He felt that he could lose to anyone, but he couldn't lose to this Li Yong.

Was he spat on like this and walked away?

How can it be just like that!

Be sure to overtake him, then get to the shore before him, and spit on him!

Zhuang Zhuang felt a sudden strength in his body, turned his body, and continued to swim forward.

Soon, Zhuang Yan and Li Yong walked side by side, chasing me on the sea.

The most bewildered one is confused.

He couldn't figure it out at all, just now Zhuang Zhuang was lying on the water with his belly turned over like a dead fish, and he was almost about to call a lifeboat to come and catch him.

But in the blink of an eye, the salted fish turned over, and the sick cat turned into a tiger?

Hell yes!

He hurried to catch up.

Soon, the old confused found that there was a soldier of a reconnaissance company more than three meters next to the solemnity, and the two seemed to be fighting hard.

"Phew...... You...... You're ...... Grandson ......"

Solemnly panted as he spat at Li Yong.

"Silly...... Forced ......" Li Yong replied with white eyes.

In the heavy rain, the two of them kept scolding each other intermittently, swam for a while, saved up some strength, scolded, and began to swim desperately again when they were tired of scolding.

On the sea, in the rain, the scolding of the two of them echoed when they were tired and deformed, but still persevered.

The old confused swam between the two of them and persuaded loudly: "When is it, you still have the strength to scold your mother...... Tell you, save some effort, otherwise you two will definitely have cramps when you two toss like this later. ”

Zhuang Zheng was honest this time, closed his mouth, and swam towards the shore with his maximum speed, and in the distance, he could already see his comrades who had already arrived at the shore waving to him on the beach.

How long have you been swimming?

Zhuang Zheng didn't know that it was a heavy rainy day, and there was not even a sun in the sky, so the time could not be judged at all.

However, he knew that it must have been a long, long time......
