Chapter 62 The Tranquility Before the War

"Three-day rations, chocolate bars, refreshing sugar, coffee powder, sugar and matches!"
"Compass, bayonet, geotechnical equipment, ammunition, gas mask, preparatory ammunition..."
"Be careful! If you haven't signed a Dajian Life Insurance Policy, go to the headquarters administrative company to find Sergeant Evans, don't let your family lose 10,000 US dollars in vain!"
On the south side of Youpotay Airport, on a road that seemed to be a taxiway, Chen Bin was counting the supplies he would bring to the battlefield with the rest of the paratroopers.
Looking at the supplies that were about to pile up in front of him, a classic line suddenly popped up in Chen Bin's mind.
"Old Li has never fought such a wealthy battle..."
If Li Yunlong saw the individual supplies of the US military, he would be surprised and fainted. Not to mention the 45 m1911 at the same time, it would be different if the domestic army, even the national army, whether everyone can match the pistols with a pistol...
The rest of the supplies were even more abundant, especially cigarettes!
In addition to the four cigarettes brought in each box of rations, two additional packs were distributed. Later, Chen Bin also figured out why he thought this cigarette was particularly easy to smoke...
Because of the addition of...
During the war, some marijuana and other things were often added to the cigarettes. Under the premise of controlling the dosage, these things can help soldiers calm down faster. Even under some extreme conditions, replace the effect of painkillers.
But think about it, if you get used to smoking this cigarette, you may have withdrawal reactions in the future. After hesitating for a while, Chen Bin still stuffed these cigarettes into his bag, and he usually didn't dare to smoke again...
How delicious this will be, and how miserable it will be when it returns to reality!
After all, these things are definitely drugs in the real world. Even abroad, except for places like the Netherlands where underwear is lost, they are almost all restricted-grade foods...
"Have you packed up?"
Just as Chen Bin was thinking about it while packing his equipment, Lieutenant Winters suddenly appeared quietly beside Chen Bin.
"It's almost done, but I can't use this leg bag. I'll just jump down with my arms..."
This is another place that Chen Bin had never expected. In this day, the US military has used to putting weapons in leg bags, hanging them on their legs and jumping down...
It is completely different from the later protection of special gun jackets.
Chen Bin thought about it all the time, but always felt that this thing was unreliable.
After all, if there is any problem in the air, the weapon cannot be taken out. Especially his inferior sniper rifle, I am afraid that he can't withstand such tossing...
If there is any accident in the landing process, the leg bag will first touch the ground, causing the sniper rifle's scope base to loosen, or if it hits a tree or something, there will be no chance to re-scramble the gun on the battlefield. At that time, all the ballistic tables I made before will be reduced to waste paper!
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Confirm, m1903 has an advantage, it can be equipped with a strap. I will just put it around my neck and hang it on my chest. I don't need to operate anything in the fixing umbrella..."
After packing up his own things, Chen Bin stuffed his extra leg bag into Winters' arms.
"This thing should be left to those in need!"
"You jump with us? Let me tell Mihan, I thought about it, with you here, I can feel more at ease!"
After taking the leg bag, Winters seemed a little embarrassed...
Although the standard crew of the c-47 transport aircraft has 28 people, it depends on the parachute needs and range restrictions. Each transport aircraft will only carry 12-15 people according to the standard and will not be fully loaded.
This number of people happens to be the number of people in the same team, and Chen Bin, who is almost displaced in the second row, is naturally counted as the administrative sergeants and others in the company who are in similar situations and take the same plane.
Now that Winters is coming, it is obvious that Chen Bin has gained a taste for her during the exercise. She is used to someone who is covering her behind her, but suddenly she is gone, and she always feels insecure.
"Please, can you not say that you are so angry with gay?!"
She rolled her eyes helplessly, and Chen Bin did not refuse this. It would be more at ease for Chen Bin to embark on the journey with Winters, a familiar person.
D-day is coming. Whether it is veterans or new recruits, at this moment, I didn't say that I could not be nervous. All my calmness is just pretending...
"E-Secret attention!"
"There is fog across the strait! So, I won't jump tonight! The login action is delayed!"
Just as the two of them were about to enter the standby state, the voice of Company Commander Mihan also rang out at the same time.
The login operation is delayed, and the soldiers do not need to continue to stand by.
It was like a tour group that was delayed by flights, and everyone was arranged to watch a movie in the evening. The tranquility before the war was a little more than a night...
Like ice cream, the extravagant things in this era are not attractive to Chen Bin at all. Chen Bin, who is not used to watching black and white movies, walked out of the camp and saw that Lieutenant Nixon and Winters were already outside the camp at some point...
"Hey, your sergeant is here! Chen, are you going to come?"
Nixon looked at Chen Bin, and shook the wine pot in his hand with a smile.
"Thank you, I think I need it!"
In this era when there is no indoor smoking ban policy, the air in the movie screening is not good. It always seduces Chen Bin to learn from them and click one, but Chen Bin dares not. This slightly depressing atmosphere is matched with the dim night sky...
Chen Bin really needs something to numb his brain.
"Hiss~Happy!"
The whiskey from 1869 is particularly stimulating. The mellow aroma of wine remains between the lips and teeth and lasts for a long time...
There is no doubt that if it were put into later generations, these sips of wine would be of great value...
"It's going to clear!"
Just as he returned the wine pot to Lieutenant Nixon, Chen Bin heard Nixon suddenly come up with this stupid sentence. It seemed that in a flash, Chen Bin understood again...
"Is it going to jump tomorrow?"
"There is a high probability that there are not many windows for large-scale airborne landings. Look at the sky, if it is still the same until noon tomorrow, then we can meet in France tomorrow night!"
The three of them chatted while walking, although the combination of two lieutenants and a private seemed a bit strange. But the war was approaching, and the gendarmes who saw all this wisely chose to ignore it.
No one wants to ask at this time...
"Okay, let's think about something happy! We just talked about it. When the war is over, Winters and I will go back to Chicago. Chen, then you will come together? I won't treat you badly!"
"You can believe him, this guy's dad is a rich man!"
"Haha, OK! Then we'll go to Chicago together!"
"Then it's a matter of determination! By the way, we have a Chicago native in our company..."
"Who? Oh...he..."
"Think about it, guys, we managed to survive 712 days in the hands of that Chicago man! What a celebration, Chen, let's have another couple?"
"You are much more interesting than this boring guy Winters. Let's have a couple of drinks if you have the chance!"
Chapter completed!
