1929 I am a chaebol in the United States

Seeing that Green was very curious about the equipment he mentioned, Lu Chen did not hide anything and said to Green:

"Do you have any paper and pen?"

When Green saw Lu Chen asking him for paper and pen, he immediately took paper and pen from his desk and handed them to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen took the paper and pen handed to him by Green, and then began to draw the parachute in his mind on the paper.

Green recognized what Lu Chen drew at a glance. It looked like a parachute.

Green said in confusion: "What you drew is just a parachute. This thing has been around for a long time, but it is not reliable at all. Once the wind blows, it will float away. Also, the safety of the parachute is a problem. The fabric is easily damaged during descent, which puts the user at risk of death."

Lu Chen said, "Mr. Green, you can rest assured about safety. The nylon material I produce is several times stronger and tougher than traditional silk threads. If you use this material to make a parachute, you don't have to worry about the parachute breaking or rupturing during use."

"Even if you solve the safety problem, when the parachute lands, people won't know where they are. What's the point?"

Lu Chen continued, "Have you seen the fan I drew? It is a parachute that can glide in the air, and the direction of its glide can be controlled. As long as they are trained, the soldiers can control them to land at the designated location."

Green immediately picked up the parachute drawing that Lu Chen had drawn and read it over and over again. If what Lu Chen said was true, then it would really be possible to make soldiers drop from the sky.

Lu Chen continued, "As far as I know, the Soviet Union established the world's first paratrooper unit in late 1930. I think we should also have such a unit."

Lu Chen's words surprised Green. He asked Lu Chen in shock:

"Where did you get the information from? And what kind of unit is the paratrooper unit you mentioned?"

Lu Chen explained: "I heard this news from a friend. As for the airborne troops, they use airplanes to transport soldiers to the sky above the designated location and let the soldiers jump out of the plane with parachutes on their backs."

After Green heard this, he said to Lu Chen, "Okay, your information is very important. I will report it to the higher authorities and ask them to confirm the information. You can go to the special forces company by yourself. I won't send anyone to take you there."

Lu Chen nodded, then left Green's office. After leaving Green's office, he came to the logistics center, asked the logistics department to arrange a car for him, and then asked Ike to drive to the special company's base.

After Lu Chen left, Green immediately reported the news that the Soviet Union had established a paratrooper unit. After learning the news, the Ministry of Defense immediately sent someone to verify the authenticity of the news. They also told the military experts about the news and asked them to confirm whether the United States needed to establish such a unit.

After half an hour of traveling, Lu Chen finally arrived at the base of the special forces company. After Lu Chen got off the car, he said to Ike:

"Ike, you don't have to follow me when you get here. Find a place to stay in a nearby town for a few days. I'll come find you after I finish my business."

After saying that, Lu Chen walked towards the military camp.

When the sentry from the special forces company saw Lu Chen coming, he immediately went in to report to Zhang Bing and the others. Lu Chen immediately stepped forward to stop the sentry. He asked the sentry:

"Do you know where the soldiers from China live? There is also a group of people who came here from the United States for training recently. Where do you place them?"

"Report to the commander. The two companies from China have been arranged next to our camp. The Americans from the mainland are also staying there."

Lu Chen continued: "Then take me over to have a look."

After hearing Lu Chen's instructions, the sentry immediately took Lu Chen to the east towards the mountain. Lu Chen followed the sentry and walked into the woods next to the camp. After a while, Lu Chen saw a new camp built on a flat ground at the foot of the mountain.

Lu Chen looked at the camp. He still remembered that it was a forest last year. He had conducted camouflage training here with the soldiers of the special forces company. He didn't expect that they had cut down all the trees there.

He looked towards the camp and found that there were many people inside. It was obvious that they were training. He asked curiously:

"What kind of training are they doing?"

The sentry said, "They are doing physical training. I don't know how these soldiers were trained before, but they are already out of breath after running five kilometers. So the company decided to let them do physical training first, and then do other training after they are physically fit."

Lu Chen frowned. His original idea was to let the special forces train them in some professional knowledge, such as how to operate artillery, how to fire, and how to fight in streets. Now all the training is focused on physical training. What's the point?

Lu Chen decided to talk to the person in charge of training. He asked the sentry:

"Do you know who is in charge of training these people?"

"Captains Zhang Bing and Li Erwa."

"Take me to them."

The sentry took Lu Chen into the camp at the foot of the mountain, and then walked towards the innermost house.

When the sentry arrived at the door, he shouted "Report."

Li Erwa's rough voice came from inside the room: "Come in."

After the sentry brought Lu Chen into the room, Lu Chen saw Li Erwa lying on a rocking chair. When the sentry saw Li Erwa, he immediately prepared to report.

Lu Chen didn't wait for the sentry to speak, but went straight to Li Erwa and kicked him off the chair.

Li Erwa climbed up and immediately shouted angrily:

"Who is it? Who is kicking me?"

Lu Chen kicked Li Erwa again, and then said to Li Erwa:

"Li Erwa, who are you going to be your father to?"

Li Erwa was kicked again, and then he turned around immediately, clenched his fist and prepared to punch the person who kicked him. But when he saw that it was Lu Chen, he immediately put away his fist and said with a smile:

"Captain, why are you here? Why didn't you notify us?"

Lu Chen said unhappily: "If I had informed you, how could I have seen you sleeping here?"

Li Erwa immediately argued: "Captain, I remember that you often took breaks when you were training us."

Lu Chen touched his nose and stopped pursuing the question. He wanted to know the training plan that Li Erwa and Zhang Bing had made for these soldiers. So he asked:

"Li Erwa, how are you going to train these soldiers?"

Li Erwa said: "How else can we train them? We can train them the same way we train them, but their physical fitness is too poor. A five-kilometer cross-country race made many people faint. We plan to improve their physical fitness first. Then we can train other things."

Lu Chen didn't expect that these strong-looking soldiers had such poor physical fitness. He frowned and said, "What about them now? How is their physical fitness?"

"Nowadays, five kilometers is basically no problem, but few people can complete ten kilometers."

Lu Chen said: "Since they can run five kilometers, there is no need to train their physical fitness anymore. I am planning to train them to be soldiers like you."

Li Erwa looked at Lu Chen in confusion. "So how do you plan to train them?"

Lu Chen said: "I originally wanted you to train them in street fighting, and to make them proficient in using artillery, anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft guns and other equipment."

Li Erwa looked at Lu Chen in surprise. "It's that simple."

Lu Chen nodded.

"Then why didn't you tell us earlier? If we had known this, wouldn't we have just taught them how to use it? Why would we have to train their physical fitness?"

Lu Chen said a little embarrassedly: "This is my fault. I didn't inform you."

"Then I will go and tell Zhang Bing to stop training these soldiers physically and take them directly to our artillery unit to learn how to operate artillery."

Lu Chen quickly stopped Li Erwa and said, "We'll talk about this tomorrow. Tell me about those American veterans who came to your place a while ago and how their training is going now."

"As for them, we didn't really take care of them. They were training on their own."

Lu Chen asked, "What's going on? Why don't you care about them?"

"They are all veterans who have fought in the battlefield. They are all quite capable and there is no need for them to undergo training. Zhang Bing can just let them do the recovery training themselves."

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then you don't have to worry about them. But I require you to train these Chinese soldiers for me within two months. After two months, I will take them to the battlefield."

Li Erwa said, "Okay, I'll go discuss it with Zhang Bing right away."

After saying that, Li Erwa walked out of the room.
