Chapter 285 One minute in heaven, ten years of work on earth
five minutes?
Five minutes is not that long in reality, but in this case, five minutes is equivalent to five years.
Soldiers from the 1st Special Reconnaissance Company who thought parachute training was very simple at first realized now that parachute training was far from simple as they thought.
There is a popular saying among the paratroopers, three swellings and three eliminations will reach the sky.
Every junior who participates in parachute training must have swelling from thighs to ankles three times and subside three times. Only when they have strong leg strength and a solid posture can they be basically qualified to be a paratrooper.
The posture training on the ground is only the most basic training.
To go from recruit to paratrooper, you have to pass six ground tests before you can board the plane.
In all parachute ground action training, in addition to posture shaping, it is also necessary to learn how to stand on a bumpy airplane without a heavy parachute. This is the off-plane posture; practice bouncing in place, one step, and finally practice on a simulated aircraft platform.
3 steps immediately; you need to start from a 1-meter-high platform to a 5-meter platform, jump off thousands of times repeatedly, and constantly exercise your leg skills so that your legs can withstand the huge impact generated when a parachute lands.
; From the lifting ring to the "three-dimensional space ring" training, and then to the secondary simulation platform training, after a few days, everyone's legs swelled up, they walked with a limp, and sleeping became a big trouble - not insomnia,
But I couldn't even climb out of bed.
The female special operations squad does not receive much more care than the male soldiers.
Skydiving is a fatal thing. To put it bluntly, even if you are a girl, in the women's special operations team, even if you are a child of the deputy district department like Shao Xiaoqian, no one will dare to open the back door for you.
You know, if the foundation is not strong, God will kill you.
As for an off-plane movement, practicing to the death is not to look good, but to ensure that you have a correct posture when you leave the plane and avoid airborne accidents such as parachute tangles.
Rather than torture you to death on the ground, the teacher is not willing to wait for you to jump from the sky and fall into a pulp, regretting and blaming yourself for the rest of your life in front of your corpse that even the undertaker can't put together enough makeup to put on.
Why are special forces so pure compared to anywhere else?
The reason is very simple, what you practice and learn here are all life-threatening tasks.
Three months of parachute training made Li Zheng feel like he was back as a recruit.
Everything seems so familiar.
The purpose of establishing postures is to develop each soldier's muscle memory, but this is still not enough. Next comes the frightening ring training.
Everyone has to stand on a platform three to four meters high, grab the two iron rings hanging from the shelf tens of meters high, jump out with their feet, swing down, and then land in the sand pit twenty meters away.
Here, swinging the rings requires a lot of courage, and the timing of letting go of the rings is very particular - if you let go too early, you will fall into the sand pit, not to mention the unsightly posture, and you will end up chewing sand.
If you let go, you will fall on your back, and your internal organs will feel as if they are out of place. You will not be able to get up for a long time.
The most terrible thing is that during this process, there were at least two instructors watching, evaluating every detail of the action, and yelling at each soldier hanging on the ring——
"Three steps must be taken steadily! Come again!"
"Retracting your legs too slowly!"
"Leave the plane and open your legs, 3 points!"
If you do not reach the 4.5 points for excellent results, then continue and continue.
Four times, five times, six times, ten times...
no?
Then a hundred times.
Two hundred times.
From the immediate position setting to in-situ bounce, from in-situ heeling to 1-step bounce, 3-step off the machine, rings, and jumping platform step by step, Li Zheng's legs really couldn't escape the fate that veterans said in the past, and the swelling disappeared.
, and the swelling subsided.
After a month, the pain in the legs disappeared, and the skills on the body became more and more. The soldiers of the Special Reconnaissance Company gradually changed from being proud at the beginning, to being humble and low-key after being hit hard, and then began to be proud again.
stand up.
Everyone feels that in just one month, haven’t they all learned it?
Including setting the posture, it was difficult for fifteen minutes at first, but now it can be done easily in twenty minutes.
A month later, when Li Zheng walked into the assessment venue, stood on the secondary simulation platform, he glanced at the scoring group under the stage - a scoring group of three people. If the overall score failed, it meant that he could not get the exam.
Tickets for boarding.
"Get off the plane and prepare to jump!" Following the examiner's order, Li Zheng bent over and stared at the edge of the "aircraft door".
I saw his right leg pulled up to his chest as fast as lightning, and then his left leg suddenly exerted force and jumped away from the simulator. His body drew a graceful arc in the air and landed steadily on the air mattress.
Before he could stand up, Li Zheng heard the examiner's voice: "4.5 points!"
He quickly stood up from the mat, clenched his right fist and waved it heavily in the air.
He firmly got the "ticket" to challenge the 800-meter skydiving challenge, with a smile that couldn't be concealed on his lips.
Those who have completed the ground training and assessment will get one day, and the base canteen will have a special meal for the special agents.
Zhang Yan is here.
At the door of the canteen, Zhang Yan first congratulated all the soldiers for passing the ground training assessment and receiving tickets for the low-altitude jump.
Then the conversation changed and they announced that they would enter special situation handling training starting tomorrow.
Special situations, in the final analysis, are special situations that occur in parachuting, that is, unexpected situations. They are various unexpected situations that endanger the lives of paratroopers during parachuting, such as the main parachute not opening, interspersed with other people's parachutes in the air, causing
The umbrella was wrapped around, or the landing point was incorrectly controlled, and the aircraft landed in a dangerous place such as the woods and became a kebab, etc.
"What should we do if we count six seconds after jumping out of the cabin and find that our main parachute has not yet opened?"
Zhang Yan asked a very simple question.
Li Zheng raised his hand: "Open the backup umbrella!"
"Yes, but what about the umbrella?" Zhang Yan asked Li Zheng.
Li Zheng was a studious guy and a smart college student. He immediately raised his hand and answered: "If you are unfortunate enough to get tangled in your parachute, you must immediately pull out your paratrooper's knife and cut off the parachute rope that is tangled around you, and then open your backup parachute."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Yan nodded happily: "I heard that Li Zheng, you are a college student from a prestigious university?"
Li Zheng's face felt a little hot, but he still nodded. This was a fact and there was no need to deny it.
Excessive humility is pride.
Zhang Yan suddenly asked again: "But if your umbrella gets entangled with your comrade's umbrella, do you use the knife to cut off his parachute rope, or yours?"
Li Zheng was suddenly at a loss.
Zhang Yan asked everyone again: "Who can answer? You can raise your hand."
For a moment, there was silence in front of the dining hall door.
In fact, the recruits have not yet learned about special service handling. They just overheard some of it when chatting with teachers or squad leaders and making nonsense.
It is true that no one can answer such a complicated question.
After a long time, Zhang Jian raised his hand.
Zhang Yan said: "Zhang Jian, tell me."
Zhang Jian said: "I will definitely cut my own parachute rope."
Zhang Yan asked: "Why?"
Zhang Jian said confidently: "Because I can definitely reopen my backup umbrella."
Hearing this, Zhang Yan smiled slightly and asked: "Suppose, I mean what if, you and your comrade-in-arms are entangled in an umbrella, and the distance from the ground is too low, cutting the parachute rope means that only one of you and your comrade-in-arms can survive, Zhang Jian
, are you still willing to cut your own paracord?"
Zhang Jian was stunned and didn't know how to answer.
He was just about to open his mouth to answer, but he heard Zhang Yan say first: "Don't talk in front of me, I just want to hear your most honest answer."
Zhang Jiangang opened his mouth a little and closed it again.
His thoughts were confused and he was unable to answer at the moment.
