A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

After adapting to the new environment, Lu Cheng's training results have been steadily improving.

Take the five-kilometer armed cross-country race for example. At the beginning, Lu Cheng couldn't control the rhythm well, and coupled with lack of practice, he was a little worse than those veterans.

But these are not difficult for an old Chinese doctor.

Lu Cheng is best at maintaining health and fitness, and he has unique skills in adjusting his breathing and stabilizing his qi.

After only running two or three times, Lu Cheng was able to adjust his condition and run five kilometers at a very steady pace with a full set of equipment on his back.

Moreover, while running, Lu Cheng can also use some Qigong techniques to give his whole body and mind a good workout. The key is that it can also minimize physical energy consumption.

After running five kilometers, others were exhausted and out of breath, but Lu Cheng was still able to maintain a steady breathing rhythm and didn't even sweat much.

Before long, Lu Cheng's speed increased steadily, gradually surpassing one veteran after another, even surpassing the squad leader Shi Jin, and catching up with the deputy squad leader Wu Liuyi who was at the front.

Wu Liuyi is the most hardworking trainee in the entire Steel Seventh Company, and his result in the five-kilometer cross-country race has always been second in the entire division.

As long as Lu Cheng can beat Wu Liuyi in the 5km cross-country race, he can compete with the first place in the division.

Seeing that he was about to be surpassed by a new recruit, Wu Liuyi became more motivated and trained even harder.

In fact, this 5-kilometer armed cross-country race has always been a fine tradition of our army.

The reason why it is set at 5 kilometers instead of 4 kilometers or 6 kilometers is also for a reason. In war, troop transport trucks usually transport soldiers to a place 5 kilometers away from the battlefield. After that, the soldiers need to carry their weapons and equipment to participate in the battle.

The medium mortars commonly used on the battlefield also have a range of 5 kilometers. The troop transport trucks are transported 5 kilometers away, just out of the range of the mortars.

Of course, if it is an armored personnel carrier, it is another matter.

It is not easy to run a five-kilometer armed cross-country race while carrying 30 kilograms of equipment, so it is also called a will-toughening machine.

After many training sessions, Lu Cheng has completely adapted to the five-kilometer cross-country race. He secretly added two bricks into his backpack and began to compete with Wu Liuyi.

Gao Cheng, the company commander of the 7th Steel Company, once said that if you want to survive in the 7th Steel Company, you have to fight and have a spirit of never admitting defeat.

Lu Cheng naturally wanted to compete with this veteran.

Wu Liuyi didn't know that there were two extra bricks in Lu Cheng's backpack. Seeing that Lu Cheng's performance today was not as good as yesterday, he deliberately slowed down a bit and walked side by side with Lu Cheng: "Lu Cheng, what's wrong with you, kid? Didn't you want to compete with me yesterday? Come on, let's see today whether you, a new recruit, can surpass me and become the first in our class."

Lu Cheng sped up a little and adjusted his breathing: "Let's compete, deputy monitor, I'm not worse than you."

"It's not just talk. Let me see your true strength!"

Lu Cheng didn't say anything either. He maintained his own rhythm, gradually speeding up, constantly adjusting his pace and breathing rhythm, and maintaining his own qi.

The worst thing about long-distance running is to speed up and slow down suddenly. Once the breathing rhythm is disrupted, physical energy will be depleted faster.

The red bricks in Lu Cheng’s backpack weigh about three pounds each, and two bricks weigh six pounds.

Even though it's just an extra 6 kilograms of weight, it's not that much extra when added to the dozens of kilograms of weight.

But after a long-distance run, every extra pound of weight becomes an extra burden.

Lu Cheng had just gotten used to the five-kilometer cross-country race fully armed, and with the six kilograms of weight, it was naturally difficult for him to run at the same speed as before.

Even after running more than four kilometers, Lu Cheng already felt the blood in his body boiling, but it still hadn't reached its limit.

Moreover, just as Lu Cheng's blood began to boil, a new force suddenly emerged in his body to replenish the consumption.

Lu Cheng immediately understood that this was obviously the result of his special talent and extraordinary endurance.

But after Lu Cheng got used to it, he quickly and steadily caught up with Wu Liuyi.

Wu Liuyi also maintained his own pace and was not panicked by Lu Cheng's approach.

As they approached the finish line, Lu Cheng was already very close to Wu Liuyi.

But Lu Cheng did not sprint, he just followed closely behind, and it seemed that there was not much difference from yesterday's result.

Wu Liuyi chuckled: "Lu Cheng, you are making rapid progress, but it will take some time for you to surpass me."

Lu Cheng laughed: "This time won't be too long."

"I am waiting."

In the subsequent training subjects, whether it was firearms shooting, maintenance, or five-kilometer cross-country or five-hundred-meter obstacle course, Lu Cheng was making rapid progress.

Superior physical fitness and extraordinary endurance allowed Lu Cheng to thrive in training and gradually demonstrate his potential.

In shooting, Lu Cheng also showed extraordinary talent.

Perhaps because of his very high physical fitness and mental strength, Lu Cheng's mental strength is easier to concentrate, his hands are steadier when holding the gun, and he can also control the recoil of the gun very well, completing various forms of shooting such as single-point and continuous shooting in a rhythmic manner.

This speed of progress not only surprised the veterans of the third squad, but also the company commander Gao Cheng, and Shi Jin was even more delighted.

It won't be long before Lu Cheng can grow to a level similar to Wu Liuyi, which will greatly improve the overall performance of Class 3.

On this day, the entire company once again embarked on a fully armed five-kilometer cross-country run. Not long after the start, Lu Cheng caught up with Wu Liuyi.

Gan Xiaoning, Bai Tiejun and others at the back couldn't help but complain: "How can this Lu Cheng be so fierce? He has only been here for a short time, and he is already on par with our squad leader Wu."

"That's right, this guy is still not human. Bai Tiejun, look at him, then look at you, you are from the same batch of soldiers. Why is there such a big difference? He is almost the first, and you are still at the bottom?"

Bai Tiejun helped Gan Xiaoning: "I am also helpless. Lao Gan, give me a hand..."

Soon, the company commander Gao Cheng and several platoon leaders noticed the situation ahead and couldn't help but start discussing: "It seems that our college students are going to compete with the hard-working Wu Liuyi. Company commander, who do you think will win?"

Gao Cheng chuckled, "I want to know too. Wu Liuyi has been practicing for several years to get the current results. How long has Lu Cheng been here? This is really weird."

The platoon leader chuckled and said, "I heard that he comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners? Maybe he has some tricks, like qigong or something."

"That's right. Let's ask him later. Maybe we can improve the performance of the entire company."

Gao Cheng was moved when he heard this and thought he should ask.

Wu Liuyi worked hard to train for more than 5,000 kilometers and got the second place in the whole division. It was really hard to imagine that he was surpassed by a new recruit who had just arrived.

Gao Cheng himself wouldn't believe it if the other party said he didn't have any tricks.

After being caught up by Lu Cheng, Wu Liuyi became a little anxious and couldn't help but speed up a little.

But this speed made his breathing a little disordered. Wu Liuyi quickly adjusted his breathing and returned to the previous speed before he could stabilize the rhythm.

Lu Cheng followed Wu Liuyi slowly and ran towards the finish line.

Finally, when they were almost at the finish line, Lu Cheng quickened his pace by two steps and surpassed Wu Liuyi by a slight margin.

Wu Liuyi lost his temper immediately and took several breaths. After finally calming down, he walked up to Lu Cheng in disbelief: "You...you are really good."

After saying that, Wu Liuyi patted Lu Cheng's backpack and immediately found something wrong: "Lu Cheng, what's in your bag? Open it and let me see."

Gao Cheng and several platoon leaders and squad leaders in the rear saw the situation in front and hurried over.

Lu Cheng took off his backpack and put it on the ground. Wu Liuyi's eyes fixed on him. He walked over and lifted Lu Cheng's backpack. He looked at Lu Cheng in disbelief and asked, "Why is your bag so heavy?"

At this moment, Gao Cheng and his men also ran up and asked, "What's going on?"

Wu Liuyi squatted down and untied Lu Cheng's backpack. In addition to the necessary equipment, there were also 6 red bricks.

Gao Cheng walked over, picked up Lu Cheng's backpack and tried it, and was also surprised: "This must be at least 40 kilograms. How did you do it?"

Lu Cheng laughed: "Captain, I am a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, so I have a stronger ability to bear weights. Is this normal?"

Carrying a 40-kilogram load for five kilometers, this is already the training standard for special forces...
