Soldiers Assault: Starting from the 7th Steel Company

Chapter 103 The instructor of the airborne training is an old acquaintance

Zhu Haikun's suggestion was finally recognized and approved by both parties.

That's why he tried various ways to provoke Qi Huan, Chen Jiang and others, but to his surprise, these people's willpower was so strong that they were worthy of being the land warfare elites screened through layers of screening.

It made him have a deep respect for them from the bottom of his heart.

But he couldn't show it. During training, he always had an attitude of "asking for a beating" and his requirements for them were extremely strict.

During the training process, the team members constantly challenged their limits and developed strong combat skills.

Chen Jiang and other top students improved their skills very quickly. From not being able to adapt at the beginning, they gradually got used to the basic training requirements of the "Sea Sharks".

This made Yuan Lang, who was observing secretly, sigh that the people selected recently were really outstanding in their abilities and very talented.

Chen Jiang, in particular, has shown great potential in water shooting. He has already possessed the strength of an ordinary "Sea Shark" team member even though his training is only in the middle stage.

After he learned the tricks of sea shooting taught by Zhu Haikun, he was soon able to hit the target with every shot.

As for rock climbing, Xu Sanduo is the most outstanding. Although he is not tall, his limbs are strong and flexible. When he climbs the steep rock walls, he can do it as if he were walking on flat ground. His speed even exceeds that of the instructor of "Sea Shark".

This really made the "sea shark" people laugh and scold: Are you a monkey reincarnated?

When it comes to sea driving, Wu Zhe is the best. He can handle all kinds of small boats almost immediately and he is very good at it.

Wu Liuyi's ability to hold his breath underwater has reached 5 minutes, which is a basic requirement for getting started as a "Sea Shark", but Wu Liuyi can also complete other things while holding his breath, such as disassembling and assembling underwater guns, which is very remarkable.

This is much more difficult than doing it on land.

Zhu Haikun's training requirements for them became increasingly higher. For example, at the end of the sea shooting, the four of them were required to carry a heavy assault boat into the sea, and then row to the target sea area 20 kilometers away. This had to be completed within three and a half hours, and finally complete the shooting assessment.

There is no doubt that in these projects, Chen Jiang and his four-member team have always been the most outstanding. If they were not the top students of Team A, Xiong Xianghui would have thought of "poaching" them.

Good soldier, he is also very jealous!
When the sea training was almost completed, they began jungle adaptation training.

The instructors of the "Sea Sharks" taught them how to survive on a deserted island at sea, such as being dropped on a deserted island alone with nothing to eat or drink.

Under such circumstances, they had to make fire, drink water, and obtain food by themselves, which was not an easy task. They spent a long time studying and exploring the Iroquois method of making fire alone.

These methods are easier said than done, but fortunately they can all meet the qualified requirements in the end.

In comparison, jungle training is simpler. For the resilient old A's, the jungles near the coast are not even as complex and dangerous as those in the hinterland of central China.

So this level is also very easy to pass.

Finally, we have reached the last level. Newcomers like Chen Jiang need to learn how to parachute.
Therefore, the base invited a new chief instructor for these students who had no experience in airborne parachute jumping. It turned out to be the long-lost No. 27 - Tuo Yonggang.

When Tuo Yonggang appeared in front of everyone in the uniform of an airborne soldier, everyone had mixed feelings. His former roommates must have been very happy, but Qi Huan and others were a little embarrassed. They had been the ones who trained Tuo Yonggang before, but now the situation was reversed.

Fortunately, Tuo Yonggang has grown a lot through the special training with Old A and never mentioned these unhappy things.

Qi Huan and his companions were also led by other airborne instructors. Except for the final parachute landing session, they had little contact with them.

As soon as Tuo Yonggang arrived, he asked about Chen Jiang and the others' later situation.

"Oh, I told you, you guys are definitely the best!" He was sincerely happy to know that two-thirds of his comrades in the dormitory could stay.

When he learned that Chengcai chose to give up in the final simulation exercise and was eliminated, Tuo Yonggang exclaimed that it was a pity.

Reminiscing about the past is fine, but Tuo Yonggang is ruthless in training.
"Since Captain Yuan and the others have asked me to train you in airborne combat, I will certainly give it my all, and I hope you will study diligently. When it comes to airborne combat, our group army is undoubtedly the nation's premier ace force. If you master it, you will have the initial capability to fight in all weather and all terrains."

Tuo Yonggang started teaching from the most basic things, including how to land, how to bend the body and retract the legs to land, etc.

Fortunately, Chen Jiang and his team were in good physical condition, so they saved a lot of time.

The parachute training also went smoothly.

Finally, the day of the special training "big test" arrived. The leaders of the military region attached great importance to it and came to the scene to observe. All the "Sea Sharks" were dispatched to provide support.

The assessment content includes sniping, blasting, diving, airborne, climbing, driving, etc.

Team members need to be proficient in various light and heavy weapons and complete them one by one under specific conditions.

After several months of arduous training, the members of Team A had already transformed themselves. Under everyone's watchful eyes, they completed the previous routine assessment items with excellent results. Only the last one, high-altitude parachute jumping, remained.

According to the plan, all trainees will take a transport plane to an altitude of 3000 meters, parachute, and land on the playground in front of the observing leaders.

Chen Jiang and his team were already fully dressed early, then boarded the plane and took off.

In the air, Tuo Yonggang did not forget to remind everyone:

Be sure to stay calm after jumping out of the cabin. If there is a problem with your main parachute, you still have a backup parachute.

At this time, Cheng Haibo in the cabin laughed and joked, "Instructor, what if both parachutes have problems?"

His words caused everyone to burst into laughter.

Tuo Yonggang retorted, "The probability of this happening is extremely small, only one in a hundred thousand."

He also added, "If you're really that unlucky, don't panic. I'm an absolute ace in the airborne troops. With me here, I'm your last safety buckle!"

The transport plane quickly arrived at the target airspace, and the captain in front gave the signal to prepare for parachuting.

Everyone stood up and began to line up in an orderly manner to the parachute hatch to do the final equipment check.
After a while, the signal light allowing parachute jumping finally came on, and Tuo Yonggang began to direct everyone to jump out of the cabin door one by one.

According to the rules, the order of skydiving is based on weight, so as to ensure that everyone lands at a close time. However, today is a training assessment, and for safety reasons, the order is that the newcomers jump first, followed by the veterans, and finally the instructors.

The first one to jump out of the cabin was Xu Sanduo. When it was his turn, he showed his signature big white teeth. He was no longer the rookie who would vomit when getting on the armored vehicle.

He was not afraid of parachuting from high altitude.

He just took a calm step forward and jumped out with a whoosh.

Approaching was Chen Jiang. He had trained in low-altitude rope descent from helicopters when he was in the special police force. This kind of high-altitude skydiving was indeed much more exciting, but of course, it was also much more dangerous.

Because Tuo Yonggang is a deputy company commander in the army, he has seen quite a few accidents during training.

He said personally that it was not uncommon for people to break their legs while parachuting. Some recruits performed very well during training, but were afraid to jump when they reached high altitudes. They would kick such people out of the airborne troops without hesitation.

Someone asked, would someone give him a kick from behind to help him along?
Tuo Yonggang immediately became very serious and answered earnestly, "We are training, and the recruits are our comrades. Kicking someone from behind is something that only happens in movies and TV shows. Who would dare to do that in real life? If you kick someone down, won't they be scared to death? And who will be held responsible if something happens?"

He is a very straightforward person and dares to say anything, but he has indeed broadened everyone's horizons.

In order to reduce the occurrence of accidents, everyone is extremely hardworking in daily training.

As soon as Chen Jiang got out of the cabin, he felt gravity pulling him towards the ground madly, followed by a feeling of dizziness, which was the discomfort caused by the continuous acceleration of the human body in the air.

So Chen Jiang decisively pulled the rope buckle on the main parachute,

puff~
A white umbrella flower was quickly opened, and the air resistance generated was as if someone suddenly pulled Chen Jiang up.

In fact, his descent speed was still quite fast, but it was much slower than before.

Looking at the ground scenery beneath his feet which gradually became larger and clearer, Chen Jiang had an indescribable sense of accomplishment. This was much more exciting than rappelling from a helicopter.

Suddenly, he saw a very terrifying scene. One of the team members' main and auxiliary parachutes did not open, and he fell straight down.
Oh no, this is the most frightening situation during skydiving. Although Chen Jiang couldn't see clearly who that person was, based on the order and time of skydiving, he should be a newcomer in Team A.

At this critical moment, a man stepped forward, accelerated his descent in the air, and tried to catch the team member in trouble. This scene made Chen Jiang and others very worried.

Parachuting to save people is a job that is more dangerous than wingsuit flying.

Don't be fooled by the accurate rescue in movies and TV shows, but in reality, it is very difficult to operate.
Because the other party's parachute has not opened yet, the speed in the air will definitely exceed 200 kilometers per hour, and the person may faint.

At this time, the person who goes to rescue must not only have strong mental qualities, but also have skilled skills to eliminate the danger in the shortest time and help him reopen the parachute.

Is this easier said than done?
As for the situation where two people share an umbrella, it is absolutely impossible to happen in reality, because the speed at which the two people will eventually fall will be very terrifying. If they share an umbrella, it is very easy for the umbrella to be damaged, and both of them will be finished.

Fortunately, the people who went to rescue finally slowly approached the other person, and when they were only a few hundred meters above the ground, they helped the other person open the life-saving parachute in a thrilling manner.

The two white umbrella flowers that bloomed one after another brought tears to everyone's eyes.
