Chapter 572: The Land of the Dead (Part I)
The distance between the military training base and the town is not far, only about two kilometers away, and it is only a few minutes by car.
Two military "Humvee" vehicles, one after the other, drove in the direction of the military training base in the dust.
The road was not smooth and bumpy, and Yun Xi, who was sitting in a military "Humvee" car, felt that the lunch in his stomach was about to be turned upside down.
Inside the car, Yun Xi looked out through the window of the car that was fascinated by the wind and sand. Yellow, incomparably monotonous desert yellow, boring, lifeless.
A few minutes later, the Humvee stopped in front of the military training base. Four soldiers dressed in desert digital camouflage uniforms, tactical sunglasses, and flame-retardant face shields inspect the Humvee.
Immediately after confirming the identities of the people in the Humvee, the soldiers of "Purgatory" removed the barricade in front of the entrance to the military base and put the two Humvees into the military base.
As soon as Yun Xi pushed the door and stepped out of the Hummer, a scorching wind blew sand and dust towards Yun Xi, and the dry hot wind blew Yun Xi couldn't take his eyes off.
"If you don't want your skin to be dried by the wind and sand, remember to wrap a square scarf when you go out." Yun Yue walked up to Yun Xi and pulled up the Arabic square scarf around her neck, covering her mouth and nose, revealing only her eyes outside.
Yun Xi just wanted to open his mouth to say a word of thanks to Yun Yue, but found that Yun Yue had already looked away.
"'Purgatory,' which is correctly called the 'Multinational Comprehensive Tactical Training Center,' is a completely independent military training system that does not accept the jurisdiction of any country in the world. It has a total of five military training bases around the world. ”
Yun Yue introduced while taking Yun Xi to the training base, "When I brought you here, your grandfather said that he would only give you three years, so in these three years, you must complete the training subjects of the five training bases before you can be considered qualified to graduate." ”
Yun Xi, who was following behind Yun Yue, looked at the training base in front of him as he walked. The area of the training base is huge, almost half the size of the dragon's den.
Through the signs erected on the side, Yun Xi learned that the entire training base is divided into several general areas: shooting range, fighting range, living area, physical training center, and canteen.
The other regional divisions are easy to understand, the only thing that puzzles Yun Xi is why the canteen that should belong to the living area is divided separately, and the word "canteen" is also marked with conspicuous red.
A hint of doubt flashed in Yun Xi's eyes, and he followed Yun Yue to continue walking towards the inside of the training base, and the first area they passed through was the shooting training ground.
The shooting training ground was spacious, the size of two football fields, and there were no more than 40 target positions in the shooting training ground. A certain amount of space is maintained between each target position to prevent the shells flying out of the magazine from splashing on the person next to them.
The temperature of the shells that have just flown out of the magazine is very high, and if it comes into direct contact with human skin, there is a high risk of burns.
Yun Yue stopped, looked at the trainees who were holding automatic rifles and were conducting shooting training, and asked Yun Xi, "Do you know that there is a more official title like 'Multinational Comprehensive Tactical Training Center' here, but others prefer to call it 'Purgatory' or 'Land of Death'?" ”
Yun Xi shook his head blankly.
"Any special forces in the world will have a casualty rate during training, and this proportion is generally between 5% ~ 10%, but there is no such thing as a casualty rate here!" Yun Yue pointed to the yellow earth under his feet and said: "There are many people who enter the 'purgatory' to receive military training every year, but in the end, less than 50 percent of them can actually complete the five training bases and get the graduation badges. Some people can't even get out of the door of the first training base! ”
Hearing Yun Yue's words, a look of shock flashed in Yun Xi's eyes. Although the training of special forces is cruel and ruthless, under the constraints of the training casualty rate, the instructors will still control the training intensity of the trainees.
However, here, there is no such thing as a training casualty rate, which means that in the process of training, there is no bottom line for the training intensity, and the instructor does not need to bear any legal responsibility for the casualties of the trainees during the training process.
Because since you choose to enter "purgatory" for training, it means that you have accepted such "unspoken rules".
Fittest!
Yun Xi's mind jumped out of these four words coldly, and the unspoken rules of training here are the best embodiment of the four words "survival of the fittest"!
"Dada!"
"Da Da Da!"
“……”
On the training ground, the sound of short and long point shots was intertwined, and it was extremely noisy. "Purgatory" has no clear regulations and restrictions on the use of weapons by cadets. Therefore, some of these trainees use the M4a1, some use the G36 series, some use the aug series, and some use the SG550 automatic rifle with three magazines in parallel ......, and in such a shooting training ground, you can almost find most of the world's well-known firearms.
At a distance of 200 meters between the humanoid target and the firing position, warheads of various calibers penetrated through the humanoid target and drilled into the shale mountain behind the humanoid target, raising wisps of dust. The feet of each student were covered with golden bullet casings, and at least one or two hundred.
Limit the number of bullets you can use for training? No, there is no such thing in "Purgatory", the ammunition for shooting training is supplied openly, and it can definitely hit you until you are disgusted at the sight of bullets and you can't lift the gun in your hand.
Located in the direction of Yunxi at two o'clock, a student using an SCAR assault rifle, who should be an American citizen, threw the gun behind him after firing his second magazine, bent down and picked up a brand new target paper from his feet, left the shooting position, and walked towards the humanoid target two hundred meters away.
"He ......"
Seeing that the American student was just walking towards the humanoid target with a calm expression in the rain of bullets, Yun Xi's small mouth opened slightly, and his eyes were full of shock. Shouldn't it be done when the shooting stops?
Yun Yue, who noticed the change in Yun Xi's eyes, opened his mouth to explain: "There is no talk of stopping shooting to check the target position here, any student can only check the target position like him." Moreover, we stipulate that each cadet must carry out a target position check after completing the firing of a maximum of two magazines. It's both shooting training and courage training, because many people don't have the courage to take the step of checking the target paper. ”
Speaking of this, Yun Yue couldn't help but stroke his left shoulder, because there was a bullet hole left after being hit by a bullet during shooting training.
