"We're not very lucky today."

Taking advantage of Xu Weiguo's departure from the big guy, he solemnly went up and handed him the lottery he had drawn.

"My hands stink today."

Xu Weiguo took it and saw that it was the No. 9 sign.

"The last to go?"

"Yes."

"No way, just do your best." Xu Weiguo comforted solemnly: "Don't be pressured, after all, this is someone's home field, or the chief won't say that we want to fight for one, as long as we get the second place, the task has been completed." ”

There is a reason why it is solemnly said that the lottery has bad hands.

It was already eight o'clock in the morning, and the team set off in 20 minutes, so it was already more than two hours before it was their turn to leave.

It was 10:40 a.m., and it usually takes more than two hours for the entire helicopter to penetrate and descend plus 15 kilometers in azimuth.

That is, solemnly they had to go to the hottest time of noon in Novosibirsk to complete the subject.

It's summer, and the morning air in Novosibirsk is crisp and the temperature is only about 20 degrees.

But by noon, the temperature rises to the mid-thirties, making it the hottest time of the day.

International competitions of special forces are often like this, and there is no way to be absolutely fair.

Especially in this kind of long-distance running discipline, it is not possible to arrange 9 teams to run together at the same time. Otherwise, there is no need to locate at all, and it is more convenient to run directly with others.

The higher the temperature, the most disadvantageous for a long run in the wild.

In addition, it is necessary to locate the reconnaissance detachment in the middle of the way, establish communications three times, ambush and intercept, collect intelligence, and so on, and organize attacks and harassment on the reconnaissance detachment at an indefinite place and time on the way, so it is necessary to eliminate danger before continuing to advance.

All of them were loaded with live ammunition, and they were in exactly the same condition as they were before going to war.

Another point is that because before you set off, maybe the first team to set off has already returned, then the results of others will also cause a certain amount of pressure on yourself.

In general, in this kind of competition, the first one to start is definitely cost-effective, and the last one to start is definitely at a loss.

The wait was long, and batches of special forces from various countries were sent away.

Everyone waited in the shade of the trees, sitting with a pain in the buttocks.

Solemn has another worry at this moment, morale will gradually fade over time.

A head of chicken blood splashed in the morning is afraid that it will be dried until noon.

So he solemnly gathered the team members, did not let them be too idle, sat on the ground to check the equipment, and practiced the compass positioning there after the inspection.

"It's coming! It's back! ”

Just as solemnly kept looking at his watch, the time had reached 10:35, and there were still five minutes to go.

Someone shouted.

"The big hairy paratroopers are back!"

Majestically frowned.

According to this time, Da Mao's paratroopers estimated that the entire project had been completed in 2 hours and 40 minutes.

That is to say, in the first stage of today's competition, the PLA team must complete the entire rapid march according to the azimuth within 2 hours and 40 minutes, so as to have a chance to grab the first place with Da Maozi.

Niklaj crossed the finish line with his own soldiers.

One of the big hairy paratroopers was still a few dozen meters away from the finish line, and the person couldn't hold on anymore and fell directly to the ground.

The two paratroopers with good physical strength next to him immediately dragged him to the finish line with one hand and dragged him to the finish line like a dog.

Then, the soldier on the ground took off his backpack and threw his gun, and the man fell to his knees and vomited.

The two paratroopers next to him watched their companions vomit continuously, and all they spit out was yellow and clear soup, and they couldn't help it, covering their mouths and twisting their heads, and people began to vomit.

It seems that Da Maozi is trying his best.

"2 hours and 32 minutes!"

The referees finally announced the final results.

The subject of landing and rapid marching in the field is the most effective subject, and it is also the most tiring subject.

In China, Zhuang Yan and his own team can also achieve a result of about 2 hours and 30 minutes.

But this is Novosibirsk, and this is not a training base for Army Group C.

This is a completely unfamiliar terrain, and although there has been adaptation training recently, with the character of Colonel Petrov's chicken thief, the route that was trained before is definitely not the route that will be raced today.

So, everything is full of challenges.

"Team China!"

The officers of the referee team began to roll call.

"Wait at the starting point."

"Brothers! It's all up, it's our turn! He solemnly called everyone up, walked to the starting point, and put the backpacks one by one to weigh them.

Just now, everyone added two sandbags to their rucksacks, increasing the weight to 20KG.

Da Maozi was obviously not at ease, so he checked again.

"This is your starting distance and azimuth!" Petronov came up and stuffed the information of the first target point into his solemn hands.

Now everyone's body, with backpacks, guns, weapons and ammunition, as well as water bottles and other necessities, weighs more than 50 pounds.

A rapid march of 15 km, calculated time.

This is a great challenge.

The 15KG of the rucksack is the weight of the domestic training, but now it has been temporarily increased to 20KG, and no one knows what the consequences of adding an extra five kg will be.

Now, there is no way back, only to give it a go.

Phew-

The referee directly struck the empty cartridge in the pistol.

Solemnly led the people and rushed to the helipad.

It's easy to get started.

In accordance with the requirements of actual combat, the group is on alert and boarding one by one.

The Mi-171 took to the skies.

Zhuang Zheng and the team sat in the dirty cabin, watching the training ground on the ground gradually become a small square, and the hour was in view.

The plane was heading south.

Tang Wenkai leaned over to the solemn side and shouted in his ear: "They are flying south!" ”

Zhuang Zheng immediately understood the meaning of Tang Wenkai's words.

In the past 10 days, as long as field positioning and marching training is involved, the support personnel of the base will take everyone to the northern area to organize azimuth marching training there.

Now the plane is heading south, which means that his previous guess is completely correct - Colonel Petrov is a chicken thief, and he is going to send his team to an absolutely unfamiliar territory today.

The topography of the Novosibirsk Plain is mostly plain, but the plains are easy to walk, with the same hillsides, the same dense forests and scrubs.

In fact, the most terrible thing here is the grass in the wild, swamps, rivers and the like.

Fifteen kilometers in a straight line is not much, and the Mi-171 soon began to slow down, and began to hover and descend.

"It's here! Ready to go! ”

The chief engineer in the cabin of the plane walked up to the solemn front and yelled at him loudly, pointing to the rope on the ground of the cabin, and then to the ground outside the cabin.

solemnly looked down, and his heart suddenly shook slightly.

Looking down from the plane, the terrain here is almost deadly.

Under the plane was a meadow.

It is not an ordinary meadow, the meadow here is almost uninhabited and sparsely populated, so almost no one walks, and the height of the blown down grass is taller than a person.

But there was no choice.

That's how it is to fight a war.

Where you want to land, you can land where you want to, and you have to find a way to do it.

The mechanic pushes the rope outward, and the rope falls to the ground.

Zhuang Zheng had already put on his gloves and patted Tang Wenkai on the shoulder: "Elite soldiers!" ”

Tang Wenkai got up and grabbed the cable, and the person jumped out, and the person swooped down like a scale.

Then came Xu Er.

Then the core group was solemnly led by the team, and one by one they slid down.

In this process, Niu Shilin and Du Zheng of the rear group also set up guns in the engine room for alert.

The whole group fell to the ground, the Mi-171 put away the ropes, and the propellers roared and flew away in the direction of the base.

Majestically immediately opened the piece of paper with the azimuth and distance written on it.

There are two sets of values on it - 121/1300, the target fir forest.

The angle is 121 degrees and the distance is 1300 meters.

"Leader of the Spearhead Group!"

"Here!"

Tang Wenkai bent over and squatted down.

Solemnly said: "121, 1300, target fir forest." You and Xu Er are responsible for guiding, Xia Beize, Li Baohua, Zhang Wenzhe, Ling Yunfei and the four of you count steps, Niu Shilin and Du Zheng are in the rear group, Chen Zheng and I are on the left flank guard, and Qi Tianlin and Huang Siming are on the right side. ”

Then he waved his hand: "Act as assigned immediately!" ”

Tang Wenkai and Xu Er each held a compass - they had nothing now, and they had to rely on only one azimuth to determine the correct advanced direction.

The person in the pedometer group took out the pedometer and returned it to zero.

"Positioning!"

After Tang Wenkai finished speaking, the person stood up, and Xu Er pushed aside the weeds that were more than one person tall in front of him and walked forward.

The pedometer group then followed.

The guards on the left and right flanks and the rear groups also followed.

But it has to be said that compared to the mountainous terrain around the base of Army Group C, the terrain of the cold temperate plains here in Novosibirsk is easier to disperse the alert.

But there are more fatal places.

You can't see what's in front of you here.

Training in the mountains near the base of the training brigade of Army Group C, at least you can see the scenery a few meters or even more than a dozen meters away through the dense bushes and woods.

You can't see it here at all.

Grass, wild grass growing like crazy everywhere!

In the past, Zhuang Yan had seen such a tall thatch for field training in China, but he had never seen such a large patch.

I walked for ten minutes, but I haven't walked out yet!

There are a total of nine target points, eight of which are positioning points and one is an ambush point.

That is, to complete the mission in 150 minutes, return to the base, go out and install the IED in the middle of the way, ambush the vehicle, etc., each point only has an average of 15 minutes!

From this point of view, the physical fitness, terrain judgment, positioning, handling of enemy situations and other aspects of the ability of the team members are extremely high.

This subject is worth 210 points in the whole competition, and the score for each of the other four items is only 200 points.

It can be seen that this is the most important project.

Grab the points, you have to grab them here.

Yan Yan couldn't help but be a little worried now, in this situation where he couldn't see the scenery at all, could he really rely on the azimuth to determine the accurate direction?

It's difficult.

He couldn't help but get a little worried.

For about ten minutes, Tang Wenkai shouted in surprise from the front: "It's out!" ”

Came out?

Sure enough, after walking more than ten meters forward, the grass disappeared!

Everyone found themselves on a slope, condescending, opposite patches of pristine coniferous forest.

The sight is very, very beautiful!

But no one has the heart to enjoy the view.

Zhuang Zhuang hurriedly caught up with Tang Wenkai: "What, is the orientation correct?" ”

"Don't worry! I'll promise you, I've been staring at it and I've never taken a detour. Tang Wenkai looked up and looked ahead: "This ghost place is okay, although the grass is dense, but there are not so many strange terrains, it is much less difficult than the mountainous area we originally trained." ”

"Planning group, how many meters are left."

"800 m"

"780 meters!"

"805 meters!

"790 meters!"

The four pedometers replied immediately.

When I heard this, my heart relaxed.

The values are very close, that is, there is nothing out of the basket!

"There." Tang Wenkai pointed forward with his hand and pointed to a forest in the distance: "That's a fir forest, according to my current azimuth and estimated approximate distance, the first target point is there!" ”

solemnly took a look, and the judgment was the same as Tang Wenkai.

"Let's go! Advance! ”

Since this is a plain, after the tall weeds have passed, there is no scenery in front of you, and the line of sight is excellent, and you can look directly at the target.

This made Zhuang Yan a little happy.

Looking at the watch, it was only eleven minutes since the plane descended to the ground.

At this rate, let alone 2 hours and 40 minutes, even 2 hours and 30 minutes are confident that you can do it!

Soon, everyone reached the edge of the fir forest.

Through the number of steps counted and searching, the target tree was soon discovered.

"Squad leader, here!" Xu Er was the first to find the white paper on the trunk, so he hurriedly beckoned everyone to come over.

"Quick! Build a newsletter! "Solemnly order Xia Beize, he is the communication soldier in charge of communications in the squad.

Xia Beize crouched under the tree, began to connect to the channel, and then sent back the code on the sticker on the trunk to make sure that the team had reached the first target point.

Solemnly keep an eye on the time.

It's only twelve minutes!

The first target point saved a full three minutes!

Smoothly!

"Next target, 182,800! Big rocks by the lake. Tang Wenkai quickly recorded the azimuth and distance of the next target on the marker, and immediately began to hold the compass to continue to lead the way.

The first point went so smoothly!

Everyone started to get excited......

solemn but dare not relax.

It doesn't make sense that the things set up by Da Maozi are so simple, otherwise those paratroopers would still have to run to vomit?

There must be a problem.
