Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

No matter how brave a person is, he or she has a soft side inside.

If you ask the soldiers to hold explosives and blow up bunkers, they will do it without hesitation. But if you ask them to bungee jump, no one dares to step forward. Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even the regiment commander Zhou Chuanhu's legs are shaking.

Seeing that everyone was still afraid, Xu Ping smiled and said,

"Actually, jumping down isn't dangerous at all, because we're tied with safety ropes. You just saw Instructor Feng Tianxing leap. Was he hurt?"

Zhou Chuanhu didn't understand the significance of this assessment and asked,

"Commander, why are we doing this kind of training?"

"Because we want to use this method to select the bravest soldiers. Only the bravest soldiers can carry out the next mission!"

The parachute raid is top secret, so Xu Ping can't say too much about it now.

When the battalion commander Tang Zhan heard that there was a battle, he immediately became excited. He came up to Zhou Chuanhu and said,

"Captain, how about you take the lead for the comrades? We must grab this mission!"

Zhou Chuanhu was furious after hearing this. He glared at Tang Zhan fiercely and said calmly,

"We must seize this mission. Let's put it this way, First Battalion Commander!"

"Have!"

"You set an example for your comrades!"

Everyone's eyes dropped to the ground. If it were any other time, they would have started to make a fuss and sighed, "The leader is a bad boy! The leader is a bad boy!"

But now, everyone just stared at it without saying a word.

Tang showed a bitter face, his calves were still spinning, and he begged for mercy.

"Captain, why don't you let Shunzi go? He's been clamoring about how brave he is all day long. Now's the time for him to show his courage!"

Second Battalion Commander Murong Shun jumped out and cursed,

"Old Tang, you're such a coward! You pushed the most dangerous mission onto your comrades! Our revolutionary friendship is over!"

Tang Zhan snorted coldly.

"The commander just said it, there's no danger!"

"Then why don't you go!"

Seeing his subordinates were so disappointing, Zhou Chuanhu gritted his teeth and shouted,

"Shut up!"

He walked to the diving platform and without saying a word, began to tie the rope buckles around himself.

The power of example is infinite. Tang Zhan and Murong Shun looked at each other and walked towards the No. 2 and No. 3 diving platforms respectively to make preparations before jumping!

There are a total of twelve diving platforms on the top of Xiyun Peak. They were welded overnight and the welding flux has not fallen off yet.

With Zhou Chuanhu and three others taking the lead, many soldiers took the initiative to stand up and prepare to accept the challenge.

On diving platform No. 1, Zhou Chuanhu, who was the first to prepare, put on goggles, took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and jumped down!

The free fall was so terrifying that Zhou Chuanhu in mid-air could no longer control himself and screamed!

The heart-wrenching sound frightened the other people on the diving platform and they quickly squatted down to look.

Zhou Chuanhu became a weakling, floating in the air. When he landed, he was completely unable to stand up. With the help of the safety officer, he was carried a hundred meters away, where he lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

As for pulling out the red scarf when the elastic rope was tightened, he had long forgotten about it!

Xu Ping looked at the people who were starting to tremble again and encouraged them.

"You see, there's no danger at all if you jump down. Captain Zhou is fine, and he's not missing any limbs. You're not even afraid of blowing up a bunker, so how could you be afraid of bungee jumping?"

Xu Ping looked around and shouted,

"This is a sport for gentlemen!"

Tang Zhan stood up tremblingly, took a deep breath, and jumped down. His reaction was completely different from Zhou Chuanhu's. He didn't scream or struggle. His mind was blank and he was completely scared!

At the top of the mountain, Xu Ping gave a thumbs-up and exclaimed,

"Captain Tang is a real man! Give him a round of applause!"

Sparse applause broke out.

Xu Ping continued to encourage everyone,

"You all see, there's no danger at all. All you have to do is overcome your fear. Jumping down is as easy as eating or drinking! I have one important reminder for you: each person only has three chances. Unfortunately, Captain Zhou and Battalion Commander Tang just wasted one. I hope you'll learn from this! Let's begin!"

When Murong Shun heard that he only had three chances, he quickly adjusted his breathing and placed his hands on the silk scarf on his chest. Perhaps he was too nervous and pulled the silk scarf out the moment he jumped!

However, his performance was much better. At least he could untie the rope by himself. Although he was in a panic, he still staggered to the shooting range 50 meters away and fired three random shots!

These movements were performed with almost trembling hands and feet.

By summarizing the detours others have taken, you can avoid making the same mistakes yourself.

Three minutes later, the first soldier to complete the four tactical moves appeared. His name was Taurus, nicknamed Black Bull because of his dark skin from the tan.

He is a natural born paratrooper!

Talent is something that cannot be compensated by acquired efforts. Many people will never be able to reach the level of others in their entire lives.

Jinniu is very ordinary, so ordinary that even after being in the group for two years, no one has discovered his special talents.

In fact, everyone has talent, but many people don’t have the opportunity to discover it. As the famous saying goes: There are Bole in the world, and then there are thousand-mile horses!

Many people are unable to discover their talents because they are trapped in a small space in life and have no chance to display their talents.

Zhou Chuanhu finally understood why the superiors required them to fast, because many soldiers were vomiting all over the place. If they had eaten breakfast, who knows how much food the whole regiment would have wasted!

After the first round of screening, 42 soldiers passed the test, with of them being selected as excellent! They were assigned to grassroots command positions as squad leaders and platoon leaders!

After Xu Ping got this data, he felt disappointed.

According to the plan, a total of two airborne divisions and two reserve divisions would be formed. Each airborne division had 2 men, meaning 1.2 men would have to be selected in the first round alone. At this rate, even if the entire army were to be selected, there still wouldn't be enough men.

The second round of screening has begun. Xu Ping wants to look at the data first, because many people may not be able to adapt at the beginning. If it still doesn't work, he can only increase the amount of training.

Zhou Chuanhu once again stood on diving platform number one. With the experience from last time, he calmed down a lot and secretly encouraged himself in his heart: You can do it! You can do it!

He closed his eyes and recalled the tactical moves he should have completed over and over again!

Perhaps feeling that it was about time, he jumped again.

During the free fall, Zhou Chuanhu felt his stomach hanging in the air. This time he pulled out the red scarf. After he landed, he vomited a few times.

Lao Zhou is also a tough guy. He ran while vomiting and finally completed the four movements within the specified time!

Jinniu held the bowl and leaned against the wall, eating with great relish. He used chopsticks to skewer four big steamed buns, and there was braised pork head in the bowl.

"Captain, do you want a bite?"

Zhou Chuanhu looked at Jinniu eating with his mouth full of oil, his stomach churned and he started to retch again.

After a long pause, he raised his head and said bitterly,

"Get out of here!"

Taurus and a few soldiers smiled foolishly, turned around and left. Watching others vomiting affected their appetite!

On the top of the mountain, Xu Ping put down the binoculars. To be honest, he really didn't want to see Zhou Chuanhu's performance. After all, paratroopers had to fight as soon as they jumped out.

But there is no other choice, otherwise there won’t be enough people.

Choose a general from among the lame people!

Xu Ping thought for a moment and said,

"Set aside six diving platforms for qualified soldiers to train on until they can stop shaking and vomiting after landing. Three days later, they will be assessed according to this standard. Those who fail will be sent back to where they came from!"

"Yes!"

The same screening will be carried out simultaneously in the northern provinces. Before officially carrying out the mission, they will also undergo aircraft parachute training. However, there is only one chance!

In addition to this subject, soldiers also have to receive training on new weapons and become familiar with their performance!

A division consists of nine regiments, including one artillery regiment, primarily armed with small mountain artillery and mortars, and two assault regiments, each equipped with AK-47 rifles, supplemented by bazookas and 107mm rocket launchers.

In the remaining six regiments, the paratroopers' individual equipment is mainly SKS semi-automatic rifles.

These are all brand new equipment and soldiers need to be familiar with their performance!

In addition, each regiment needs to cooperate in command and coordination! If we want to form combat effectiveness, we have a long way to go!
