Chapter 881 The gap with the ace troops
2:33 AM
Lead-gray clouds lingered over Jiufeng Mountain like a pile of stale, smelly shrouds.
buzz~
The asphalt road outside the Hechuan High-tech Industrial Development Zone suddenly shook. Two Mengshi 2 armored assault vehicles escorted two old military transport vehicles, tearing through the fog that had sunk to the surface, and rushed towards the gate of the Jiufeng Group.
The body of the leading Mengshi 3 armored assault vehicle is painted dark green without camouflage. Compared with the system version, in addition to the obvious difference in paint, the overall model also appears to be more bloated and heavy.
This is mainly because the steel available in the Zhanjiang Military Industrial Zone is much worse than the system version. Therefore, in order to pursue the same level of protection, they can only continue to increase the amount of armor at the expense of some vehicle performance.
After all, in doomsday application scenarios, mobility and off-road capabilities are not worth mentioning compared to protection.
However, precisely because of the problem of "overweight", the Mengshi 3 armored assault vehicles produced by the Zhanjiang Military Industrial Zone are often privately ridiculed as "Fat Three" by the backbone soldiers of the Yezhou 2nd Infantry Brigade!
At this moment, the two tactical xenon lights of the leading Mengshi 3 armored assault vehicle, like the ferocious eyes of a beast, pierced the darkness ahead with great penetrating power.
As the convoy drove into the Golden Avenue, they soon saw a bright giant searchlight on the park building, scanning back and forth.
Seeing this, the driver of the lead car and the lieutenant colonel in charge felt relieved. As long as they arrived at the column headquarters and handed over the military academy students from the front-line troops, their mission for the night would be accomplished!
You know, even for an army with absolute military power, a small force is not so safe when operating at night. Along the way, the 12.7mm heavy machine gun on the roof of the car almost never stopped.
Now as the battle has started in full swing, the 2nd and 3rd Infantry Brigade of Yezhou and the 77th Armored Brigade are rapidly moving along the Hechuan Expressway towards the northern part of the main city. However, the headquarters of the Northern Column has not moved and is still located in the initial assembly area of the Northern Column - Hechuan High-tech Industrial Development Zone.
Hechuan High-tech Industrial Development Zone covers a total area of 21.43 square kilometers. It has an independent substation, a 13-ton water plant, a 9-ton sewage treatment station, etc., and is fully equipped with various infrastructure facilities.
After the main force left for the north, the Jiufeng Regiment, where the Northern Column's headquarters was located, was the only military activity left in the huge Northern Column assembly area.
...
li~~~
After passing the gate inspection and entering the park, the convoy drove all the way along the spacious and clean internal road to the former intelligent connected vehicle R&D center of the Jiufeng Group, which is now the headquarters of the Northern Column.
After the army's transformation, the main building of the Northern Column Headquarters is now a five-story rectangular block. The original glass curtain walls on the exterior walls have been covered with 12 mm thick steel plates, and only 12 spliced bulletproof glass observation windows are retained on the third floor. The overall look is similar to a huge prismatic "one-eyed" surveillance hole.
At the same time, the four corners of the building and the four corners of the roof are welded with sharp anti-climbing steel bar barbs, and a dense array of high- and flat-type dual-purpose machine guns are set up. From the outside, the entire Northern Column Headquarters building looks like a steel hedgehog, full of a strong apocalyptic wasteland style.
"Wake up! Everyone, wake up! Get off at your stop!!"
"Wake up!"
Kaka~~
Amidst a series of reminders and the teeth-grinding friction sounds of the carriage baffle latches, Zhang Jingyu in the carriage opened his eyes with difficulty and sleepily pulled his thigh out of the arms of his childhood friend Hu Zhiming.
"Zhiming! Zhiming!"
Zhang Jingyu's calves in black combat boots were thrusting in and out of Hu Zhiming's arms repeatedly, and the unconscious Hu Zhiming was twisted and bouncy like a non-Newtonian fluid.
"Zhiming!"
Zhang Jingyu looked at the other students from the 2nd Brigade who had already climbed up, and became anxious. He suddenly raised his voice and slapped Ho Chi Minh in the face with his hand.
Bang bang~~
After being pulled back and forth twice, Ho Chi Minh's face, which only had a little baby fat left, shook rapidly like jelly.
? ?
hiss~
"What's wrong!" Hu Zhiming, who was awakened by the pain, propped himself up with a dazed expression as if he was dazed.
"Zhiming, we've arrived. Hurry up and get up. Everyone else should go downstairs and gather!!!"
gather??!!
Hearing these two words, the fear that had dominated Ho Chi Minh for some time suddenly made him clear his ears and eyes, and he jumped up from the carriage board. If his physical condition allowed it, he would probably be able to do a somersault on the spot.
"Hurry, Jingyu! Gather together! What are you dawdling for?"
After saying this, Ho Chi Minh, carrying a backpack half as high as a person and holding a gun, ran under the car.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Jingyu felt angry and amused, and even the guilt for slapping the other person twice just now disappeared.
During this period of time, this childhood friend of mine was really trained badly by his squad leader Lei Shenkai. Especially after they were included in the military academy's admission list, Lei Shenkai's requirements for the two of them were simply abnormal.
For various training subjects, soldiers of the same year only need to reach the excellent level stipulated in the training syllabus to pass, but the two of them must be the best to pass, otherwise they will have to train harder when they return.
Under such high standards, the two brothers sleep less than 5 hours a day on average, and the rest of the time is either spent honing tactical skills or working on physical fitness.
With the intensity of the current recovery war, it is like celebrating the New Year for the two of them!
However, both of them could understand why Lei Shenkai did this. One reason was indeed to make them better and prepare them for competition in military academies.
You should know that this year 90% of the admission places in military academies are allocated to grassroots troops on the front line. In this case, there is no such thing as "I am a scholar, squad leader". They are all tough guys from various units. It is no exaggeration to say that "there are elite soldiers like clouds and tough men like rain".
So in this situation, if the two want to stand out from the crowd after entering the military academy, they have to fight for their lives!
Although both of them are outstanding, it depends on who they are compared with. Compared with the survivors who were admitted to military academies, they are naturally outstanding. However, if compared with the students admitted to the professional army (system), the difference between the two cannot be said to be worlds apart, but it is definitely significant.
Lei Shenkai also talked about this issue with them. Take the 3km race as an example. After Zhang Jingyu and Hu Zhiming went through a hellish intensive training, the former's best result was 10 minutes 58 seconds, and the latter's best result was 11 minutes 19 seconds.
What about the professional army? Soldiers who can become the vanguards have a 3km performance of at least 9 minutes. Not to mention Zhang Jingyu's 10 minutes and 58 seconds, even 10 minutes and 01 seconds is not even close to the vanguard, it's a joke!
At first, Zhang Jingyu and Hu Zhiming thought that this was just the squad leader's boasting to motivate them. After all, they were not Internet keyboard warriors, but had actually run, practiced, and suffered...
But soon, squad leader Lei Shenkai, who had been lazy and increasingly mellow since they met, taught them a lesson, and the battalion organized an assessment for all squad leaders in the battalion.
雷申凯以9分41秒的成绩位居全营班长3公里考核第9名....而最后一名的成绩则是10分32秒...
In other words, among the core squad leaders transferred from the battalion's regular troops, even the weakest and most unskilled one ran 3 kilometers in 10 minutes and 32 seconds.
However, the biggest shock to Zhang Jingyu and other surviving soldiers was not the 3-kilometer result, but the fact that the battalion commander got furious after getting the result. He scolded all the squad leaders in front of the entire battalion until they were smoking.
Before the next horizontal bar test, the nearly 40-year-old battalion commander put on combat gear, carried a 30-jin weight, and did 20 deadlifts in front of the entire battalion, saying:
"I don't require you to wear combat gear or carry weights, but if anyone's horizontal bar deadlift is lower than my standard of 20, I will train him to death!"
At this point, surviving soldiers such as Zhang Jingyu and Hu Zhiming truly realized the gap between ordinary troops and direct troops!
