Chapter 174: Wilderness Survival Training
Early the next morning, before the wake-up call sounded, the whole brigade woke up.
"Let's go!"
Wang Dazui once again played the role of a veteran who was well-informed, urging Zhuang Zhuang to wait for a group of recruit trainees, "Go to the cooking class." ”
"What are you doing in the cooking class?" Solemnly asked.
Wang Dazui said impatiently: "Fetch water!" ”
In the regulations announced by Lao Qi Luo Xiaoming last night, the configuration for five days per person is a pot of water, a package of about 10 grams of salt, two packs of a total of eight compressed biscuits, and a pound of rice.
followed Wang Dazui to the cooking class, and found that a bunch of people had been queuing here.
In the past, the students who were in charge of duty every day would bring down the boiling water and knock down the row house, or everyone would divide it again, but today it seems that everyone has become nervous and has taken the initiative to come here to fetch water.
Finally lined up with his own people, Wang Dazui used a yellow bucket to make a large bucket of water and carried it to the concrete floor in front of the cooking class.
He poured himself a pot of water, then took the packet of salt out of his pocket and poured a little bit of it into it.
"Look, like me, put a little salt in the water, remember, don't too much, too much will be salty to you."
Solemnity didn't understand.
In the wilderness survival theory class, this trick was not written into the textbook.
"What is this?" He couldn't help but ask.
Wang Dazui said: "Light salt water, when you sweat too much in the wild, it will take away the salt in your body, and these can be replenished a little." ”
I solemnly remember that when I was in the wilderness survival theory class, the instructor repeatedly emphasized that during the field march, try to avoid drinking a lot of water.
In the case of heat and lack of water, water must be drunk reasonably, and when you sweat a lot and really need to drink, try to drink it in small amounts as many times as possible.
The instructor gave the data in the class that if a person drinks 1000 ml of water at a time, he will have 380 ml of urine excretion, and if he divides it into 10 times and drinks 80-100 ml each time, the amount of urine excreted will be greatly reduced, only about 80-90 ml.
In this way, the water is well maintained in the body and can be fully absorbed and utilized by the body, especially if you do not drink alcohol, which will lead to rapid dehydration.
When they returned to the barracks after making salt water, all the lights on the basketball court in front of the squadrons were turned on.
At the entrance of the brigade headquarters, several support trucks were lined up, and the soldiers of the team headquarters were moving all kinds of necessary support materials in and out.
The cadets of each squadron carried their own guns on their backs and their own fragments in their hands, constantly shuttling between the cooking class and the platoon room, and all kinds of guns and Type 91 camouflage backpacks were taken out and neatly arranged on the turf according to the squad unit.
Solemnity suddenly stopped being nervous.
This situation reminded him of the spring outing when he was in elementary school.
On the first spring outing, Zhuang Yan couldn't sleep, so he got up early in the morning, holding his schoolbag and waiting for his mother Wang Xiaolan to stuff all kinds of food into it.
Soon, each academy received its own steel helmet, compass, mountain knife, individual sapper shovel, and other belongings.
solemnly stuffed the backpack, tarpaulin, raincoat and other things into the big backpack, and the steel helmet was also tied to the top of the backpack and pressed with a cap.
He didn't like this thing, it was terrible, but the veterans all said it was a good thing, and solemnly asked why, but they didn't say it, they all said that you would know Yunyun when you went to the wild.
Everyone was ready to go after the morning exercise. Each squad has its own customized route, which is roughly the same as the squadron's route, but completely different on the small route, so as not to follow each other from one squad to another.
However, the end line is the same. And any terrain difficulties on the way are unpredictable, the distance is the same, everything else depends on luck.
After departure, all the food has to be solved on the road by yourself, to put it bluntly, you will eat whatever you have in the mountains along the way, and you will eat what you can find.
Can't find it? I'm sorry, you deserve to be hungry.
This kind of training is to let the trainees give full play to the theoretical knowledge of survival in the wilderness under the conditions of actual combat in the field.
It is better to go to the mountains for ten classes, this is the original words of Captain Wen Zhixing, and he stressed that every month in the future, if there is time, this kind of field training must be arranged.
After the assembly and formation, several squadron leaders gathered around the captain and discussed it, and then Zhou Huping returned to the queue of the third squadron and said to the captain of the duty area: "Two shifts in ten minutes!" ”
He always speaks simply and briefly, without any rambling.
After speaking, he waved his hand and stood aside.
The district captain, who wore a red armband on duty, began to start from the first district team, one shift and two shifts, then three shifts and four shifts, and released every ten minutes.
When it was the seventh class where Zhuang Zhuang was located, he couldn't help but ask Wang Dazui, "Dazui, do you say that our captain will follow us?" ”
"it!" Wang Dazui said, "He and the instructor must have taken a car to the vicinity of the campsite, and they walked in, didn't you watch it last night?" All the campsites are close to the road. ”
In the middle of July, the weather in the south is so hot that the dogs are reluctant to go out, the stones on the mountain are hot in the sun, and occasionally you can cool down when you pass through the dense forest, the most afraid is to walk in the bushes, there are many thorns, everyone has to take off the sapper shovel or firewood knife inserted in the side of the backpack, and keep opening the road.
Because they have to camp in the wilderness, the trainees are all fully loaded, and each person carries a weight of about 40 catties.
The road is quite rough, and some roads are even covered with grass and cannot be seen, so you have to squat down and remove the grass to show the way.
The most terrible thing about survival and marching in the wild is to get lost, the continuous mountains, if you get lost, it is a very dangerous thing, everyone does not have any communication tools on them, only Luo Xiaoming has a small horn and a signal gun.
According to the rules, since each cadet will be a squad leader in the future, he must lead his soldiers into battle.
Therefore, everyone takes turns to be the shift leader, and each person is limited to one hour.
Of course, when encountering places with complex terrain, you can discuss and brainstorm together.
Theory in the classroom is one thing, but in the field, it's another.
After leaving the teaching brigade and entering the Feiyun Mountains, Xu Xingguo was the first to be named as a temporary squad leader, responsible for leading the way.
"Xu Xingguo! You were the first to be in charge of serving as a temporary squad leader, and now we all listen to you, and we will go wherever you take us, understand?! Now I'll give you a debut question, and I'll mark our position right away! ”
"Yes! Monitor! ”
"You're the squad leader now!"
"Yes! I'm the class leader! ”
Xu Xingguo's voice is always the loudest.
The rest of the people stood aside, all looking at Xu Xingguo, who took out his map, then spread it on the ground, opened the compass, and put it on.
Squatting on the ground, Xu Xingguo took his map and compass, shook it for a long time, turned the map around a few times, and didn't seem to find the north.
Yes, I can't find the north.
This old saying is only deeply realized at this moment.
When I got the map, the first thing I had to do was to find the north.
The so-called finding north is actually to determine the direction of the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
It's like building a house and laying the foundation, if you can't find the direction, then there is no way to talk about reading the map and moving according to the map.
Five minutes passed, and cold sweat oozed from Xu Xingguo's forehead.
"Lao Xu, is it okay? Do you want me to help? Zhuang Zheng was a little impatient, after all, he set off with Class 8 just now, and he could still see Class 8 from a distance before, but now Class 8 is gone.
Class 8 are all second-year soldiers like Wang Datong, they have more or less participated in small training in the company, although they may not have learned to read and use pictures, but they are definitely more experienced than recruit egg students.
According to the regulations, Xu Xingguo can ask everyone to help together.
However, the competitive Xu Xingguo can't wipe his face, although Zhuang Yan's relationship with himself has eased a lot recently, but subconsciously, Xu Xingguo really regards Yan Yan as a competitor.
"It's okay, I can do it."
Solemnity could only step aside, sit down on a large rock on the side of the road, and wait.
Luo Xiaoming was not idle, he walked around on the side, and taught everyone a lesson on the spot: "Marching in the wilderness, the first level of using the map is to determine the direction, didn't I take you to the field that day and let you all practice?" Is it really so difficult to put it into practice now? ”
As he spoke, his eyes focused on Xu Xingguo's map.
With a pencil in his hand, Xu Xingguo stood up for a while, looked around, and then looked at the map.
He was comparing the terrain and features to try to find where he was now.
He found the general direction, but he couldn't find the specific and accurate fixed-point coordinates.
"What did I say when I took you out to learn positioning?" Luo Xiaoming said: "After determining the correct direction, to mark your position is not only to compare the terrain features, but also to pay attention to any field objects marked on the map, stones, trees, houses, and, look at the contour line, determine how many meters above sea level you are now, in addition, I have forgotten the visual distance method I taught you?" Forgot that there is still a compass?! ”
At this moment, Xu Xingguo was shocked.
He slammed up from the ground, gave his thumb to a large tree that was very obvious in the distance, closed his left eye and opened his right eye, then opened his left eye and closed his right eye......
"It's an eye-skipping method!"
"Lao Xu has finally opened his mind!"
"There is a mark of the big tree on the map, mark the distance, find another reference, and mark the distance......"
"Yes, as long as the distance is estimated, we can estimate the distance between our point and the big tree, and measure it directly on the map with a ruler with a compass, won't you be sure of your own position?"
Everyone began to talk in a low voice.
"Don't think about it one by one, why didn't you say it just now?!" Luo Xiaoming glanced at everyone and glared, "Don't worry, there will be a chance for you to perform later, it's quite easy to judge here, and then you enter the jungle, and some places are not so comfortable." ”
As he spoke, his gaze swept over his solemn face, intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhuang Zhuang sighed in his heart, and thought: Looking at Luo Xiaoming's expression, this living Yama probably wants to do bad to himself again......
A group of grass and mud horses rushed madly from the solemn heart.
