When you're in the Wolf Pack, your ability to obey orders becomes stronger.

Chapter 177 New Skill! Parachute Descent: LV3!

At 8 a.m., everyone gathered with their backpacks and bags, ready to head to Ming Kong Airport.

Since there were ready-made barracks and beds there, the soldiers only needed to bring their personal belongings.

Each company left a few veterans who were sick to be on duty, while the others boarded the vehicles one after another and set off.

Before the car had even left Queshan, Liu Guoping issued the order to change military ranks.

As a result, the officers and sergeants in the carriage exchanged collar insignia with the privates and corporals.

Before Xu Ge could react, Luo Shan ripped off the rank insignia on his collar and then threw over two lieutenant insignia.

"Platoon leader, look at my face, what part of me looks like a lieutenant officer?" Xu Ge said, both amused and exasperated.

As Luo Shan stuck his private's rank insignia on his collar, he said, "Who cares? With so many of us going together, they're not going to remember all our faces."

"Oh!"

Seeing that the other party had already said that, Xu Ge was too lazy to care anymore.

The reason everyone did this was because they would be passing through the Blue Army's roadblocks later, and they were worried that those people would deliberately memorize the faces of the officers and squad leaders, making it easier to expose them during future reconnaissance.

After driving about seven or eight kilometers, and passing through the Red Army's own roadblock, the convoy entered National Highway 107 and headed straight for the expressway.

Sure enough, a temporary checkpoint of the Blue Army appeared less than a kilometer before the highway entrance, with dozens of Tiger Brigade soldiers wearing digital camouflage standing by.

This checkpoint only checks military vehicles, not private cars; the entire convoy stopped on the side of the road.

"No, what's there to check?"

Xu Ge was puzzled. "Platoon leader, why should we listen to their parking? If we just charge straight at them, do you think they can catch up?"

"Won't we come back someday?"

Luo Shan said irritably, "If you rush over now, they'll just block you on the highway when you come back! Besides, their cars will still have to stop and be checked when they enter our area."

As they were talking, several soldiers from the Fierce Tiger Brigade came up from the back of the train. As soon as they arrived, they looked around the carriages, specifically targeting officers and sergeants of the third rank and above.

A chubby private stared at Xu Ge for a long time: "Wish Today! Dude, this is way too fake, isn't it?"

Xu Ge said sternly, "How dare you! How dare you speak to me like that? Bring your team leader over here!"

Luo Shan: ? ? ?
The other people in the car were also startled. What if they really attracted the attention of the team leader? They might cause trouble for them even if there was nothing wrong with them!
Little Fatty laughed: "Auntie—you're really into character. Didn't you notice that you stuck your collar insignia on backwards?"

Xu Ge: Holy crap?
A voice came from the front of the vehicle: "Alright, alright, let them go. Damn, all these guys' ranks are a mess, it's making my eyes blurry!"

A few minutes later, the convoy drove onto the highway and headed straight for Minggang Airport in neighboring Xinyang.

Xu Ge tore off the collar insignia and returned it to Luo Shan, quickly explaining before the other man could start cursing, "Platoon leader, I really didn't mean to put it on backwards. The ranks of officers are different from those of non-commissioned officers. There's no difference between the two!"

"Bullshit, didn't you see the obvious arrow on that bar?"

"Huh? It really is!"

Li Dongshui tugged at Xu Ge's sleeve and asked, "What does 'wish today' mean?"

Xu Ge: "It means 'hello'."

Li Dongshui suddenly realized: "The local troops are quite polite!"

. . .

. . .

More than twenty minutes later, the convoy exited the highway and drove along the national road for a few kilometers before heading back into the mountains.

When everyone was exhausted from the jolting, they arrived at the temporary camp next to the airport.

After Xu Ge came down with his backpack, he habitually sniffed and froze: "Wait, why do I smell the stench of White Tiger's urine?"

other people:? ? ?

Li Dongshui: "How could that be? You must have smelled it wrong..."

"Woof!"

A large white dog suddenly darted over.

"Wow! It really is a white tiger, holy crap!"

Li Dongshui pounced over and picked up the white tiger, exclaiming, "Damn, it's so heavy!"

"Wang Wang!"

The white tiger jumped off Li Dongshui, darted to Xu Ge's stomach and kicked him, then ran to Kaiyoumu's feet and circled around twice.

Xu Ge: Baihu, you son of a bitch...

In the camp courtyard, Du Hu and Guo Yuanshuai walked over with smiles on their faces.

The students from Class 9 immediately surrounded them.

"Deputy Squad Leader! I've missed you so much, Deputy Squad Leader!"

"Hey squad leader, did you see the message I sent? Kaiyu and I both got the Warrior Medal!"

"Deputy squad leader, Xu Ge was able to win entirely thanks to the help of the four of us..."

"Alright, I got it!" Guo Yuanshuai pointed to the innermost room on the first floor. "Go make the bed first!"

"Yes!"

The other members of the Sixth Company, led by their squad and platoon leaders, also divided up their rooms and began tidying up their belongings.

In the innermost room, the group was making up their beds while discussing the Warriors Competition.

Guo Yuanshuai sat at the doorway, smoking and listening, while the little dog lay obediently at his feet.

“Squad leader, where are Niu San’er and Liu Senlin? I haven’t seen those two guys.” Su Liujun asked.

"I don't know where they are right now. They're probably hiding in some roadside village," Guo Yuanshuai said. "They won't be back before the exercise starts."

Xu Ge then looked at Du Hu: "Squad leader, why did you and Bai Hu come here too?"

"Baihu has now completed the first phase of training and assessment in the regiment's military dog ​​unit. The regimental commander asked us to come and participate in the exercise. There happens to be parachute training here, so I'll take Baihu on a few jumps," Du Hu said with a smile.

Xu Ge was shocked: "Even the white tiger has jumped several times?!" "Woof!"

The little dog barked at Xu Ge, indicating its dissatisfaction with his reaction.

Xu Ge walked over, grabbed the little dog, and scratched it a few times until it started whimpering.

"Tell me, were you scared when you were skydiving?"

"Woof!"

"Are you really not afraid, or are you pretending not to be?"

"Woof!"

Xu Ge then turned to Du Hu and asked, "Squad leader, from what height did you jump with Bai Hu?"

Du Hu: "Over 3000 meters!"

"Holy crap!" Xu Ge exclaimed in surprise, "So tall?!"

"What's so special about that? The head instructor and his men have even jumped from over 5000 meters!"

Du Hu looked on with admiration, "And it was a high-altitude low-opening parachute, opening at an altitude of 600 meters, and yet it still landed accurately in front of our squad leader!"

"Wow! This sounds like performing stunts!" Xu Ge exclaimed, his mouth agape.

Guo Yuanshuai sensed something was off about Xu Ge's behavior and looked at him, asking, "What's wrong? Are you scared?"

Xu Ge: "I'm not quite sure if I'm scared or not..."

That's the truth, after all, he didn't know if spending a lot of money on improving his parachuting skills would be useful.

Su Liujun spoke up: "Deputy squad leader, it seems that Xu Ge has some psychological issues."

Li Dongshui immediately raised her hand: "Me too! Me too!"

Guo Yuanshuai didn't care at all: "This is normal. It will all be gone when training starts."

Xu Ge's eyes widened: "Squad leader, really?"

"Of course it's true." Guo Yuanshuai smiled. "I'll personally teach you when we go up the tower!"

. . .

. . .

The morning was spent cleaning up the temporary camp. After lunch, everyone immediately received a notice to begin training.

In the words of Battalion Commander Zhang Hua, time was tight and the task was heavy. In order not to delay the exercise, everyone had to complete all the pre-jump training within half a month and then take to the air once.

In the afternoon, everyone went to the landing site to familiarize themselves with the area.

In front of the wall surrounding this large landing area are various parachute facilities, and Xu Ge only just realized that Xu Can was one of those dozen or so instructors.

After the areas were divided among the various companies, the teams were taken to the parachute-folding room near the gate to learn how to fold parachutes.

"What you are folding is not just an umbrella, but also your life!"

The chief instructor for this parachute training was Major Zhu Haiguang from the airborne troops, who was standing at the door of the parachute stacking room, speaking with an extremely serious expression.
"This is the first and most important thing I want to tell you new recruits!"

Zhu Haiguang picked up a parachute pack and patted it hard: "What's inside this? It's not the canopy or fabric, it's your second life!"

"Before you jump, you are responsible for folding your own parachute here, sealing it, and signing your name. If you die from the crash, that's your own problem!"

Xu Ge: ...

Damn it, no wonder Kaiyoumu said yesterday that he could only blame himself for not being able to open the umbrella, so that's why!
After Zhu Haiguang explained in detail the precautions for parachute training for a while, he then instructed each instructor to lead their respective teams in parachute folding instruction.

Xu Can was in charge of the Sixth Company.

The soldiers were naturally thrilled to see that their instructor was such a beautiful woman.

Xu Can smiled at everyone and asked, "Does our Sixth Company have the confidence to achieve the best results in this parachute training?"

"Have!"

The noise was so loud it almost blew the air out of the shed.

Xu Can cutely covered her ears: "You guys said it, our Sixth Company won't allow anyone to skip the jump!"

"Yes!"

Xu Ge and Li Dongshui both kept their mouths shut and did not respond.

"Everyone, form a circle. I'll teach you how to fold an umbrella first!"

Xu Can acted decisively, immediately beginning the lesson: "There are twelve steps to folding an umbrella: laying out the canopy, threading the ropes, arranging the straps, rolling up the canopy, pressing the packaging..."

"No step can be omitted, and no carelessness is allowed. The entire process must be done by running back and forth!"

"Once the packages are packed and sealed, the responsibility will be firmly on each and every one of your shoulders..."

Xu Ge listened attentively while waiting anxiously.

Finally, the token appeared on its own, and a new skill slot on the front was lit up.

Parachute: LV1 (1/99).

"1000 general proficiency points, all allocated to parachute skill!"

The next moment, the value of the parachute skill on the token began to jump rapidly. At the same time, a large number of parachute-related memories flooded into Xu Ge's mind.

Parachute: LV2 (1/199).

Parachute: LV3 (1/999).

Parachute: LV3 (701/999).

Half an hour later, while Li Dongshui was still busy spreading out the umbrella fabric,
Bang!
A muffled thud drew everyone's attention.

Xu Ge patted the bulging parachute pack and shouted, "Report, all packed!"

Xu Can's eyes lit up: "Xu Ge, you're a skydiving genius!"
