Joint training with the 1st battalion soon began.

I'm sure the fighters also saw something in the first battalion of soldiers with dark faces and somewhat malnourished...... Although the words of the soldiers of the first battalion were indeed very polite and warm, there was always some disdain in their expressions and eyes.

This is okay, you must know that we are a synthetic battalion, this army can almost be said to be sideways as soon as it is established, no matter where it goes, it is in the spotlight, and today it is still looked down upon.

So the soldiers were all holding back their strength and wanted to give the soldiers of the first battalion a dismount, so that they could see the skills of our synthetic battalion.

But what I didn't expect was that the soldiers were the opposite......

"Let's run three thousand meters first!" Chen Xin said.

"Three thousand meters?" Scar looked at the warriors' light gear in disbelief.

You must know that the synthetic battalion usually runs a five-kilometer cross-country country in full gear at every turn, but now it is a three-kilometer cross-country with light equipment, and it also runs on the track of the training ground.

"Camp Commander Chen!" Scar raised his head at the warriors and said, "Don't be polite to them, it's been a day off, and they can stand it!" ”

Obviously, Scar thought that Battalion Commander Chen understood that the soldiers had just come from the Beijing base for a tiring journey.

Chen Xin smiled disappreciatively and said, "Let's run and see first, I'll add it if it's not enough!" ”

So the soldiers quickly took a step, and what was surprising was that the soldiers looked a little out of breath before they had long run, and then they quickly distanced themselves from the soldiers of the first battalion and fell behind a lot.

"Speed up!" Scar's face was extremely ugly and he gave the order.

In fact, there is no need for Scar to order, when did the fighters of the synthetic battalion suffer such humiliation. At the moment, he gritted his teeth desperately and chased after him.

But it didn't take long for something to happen. I saw a soldier fall down with a "thump". At first, we thought he had just fallen, but we didn't see him get up for a long time and knew that things were not as simple as we imagined...... The fighters of the synthetic battalion will not flinch even if they face the enemy's guns on the battlefield, and now they naturally will not make excuses to be lazy on the ground and not get up.

I ran forward to take a look, but I passed out on the ground and lost consciousness.

Then there were a few more "tom, tom", and several more fell.

Obviously, this situation was completely unexpected...... This is not to say that he was suspicious of the Su zhì of the synthetic battalion, on the contrary, he was amazed that the bones of the soldiers of the synthetic battalion were too hard.

Originally, Chen Xin's idea was: When the soldiers can't stand it, they will naturally slow down or stop to rest, who knows that these soldiers in the synthetic battalion will all hold on until they faint to the ground.

Look at the fighters still have no intention of stopping. Chen Xin hurriedly gave the order for the soldiers to stop, and at this time, five people in the synthetic battalion had already fainted to the ground. Fortunately, Chen Xin was already prepared for this, and several medical personnel quickly rushed forward to rescue these soldiers.

"How so?" I was also very surprised by this result.

"Not enough oxygen!" Staff Officer Li explained: "Here, even if you don't bring anything, when you walk, it is equivalent to carrying 20 kilograms on the plain. Don't worry too much about it, though, it's going to take a process of adaptation and it will improve over time! ”

"Oh!" I couldn't help but frown.

Although I knew that the oxygen on the plateau was thin, I took it for granted that it was only because of the poor physique, and the soldiers of our synthetic battalion were trained in steel, so they would naturally not be affected or be less affected. Now it seems that this is not the case.

But it's normal to think about it, but the oxygen concentration on the plateau is sometimes less than half that of the plains. In other words, they were doing all kinds of activities at half their breathing rate on the plains, and before the warriors had run far, someone would pass out and fall to the ground.

"It's a brand new battlefield!" I couldn't help but sigh.

"Actually, your table is already very good!" Staff Officer Li said: "When we first came up, few of us could run more than two thousand meters, and most of you have run two thousand meters now, and if it wasn't for the order of the first battalion commander, you wouldn't stop...... This is enough to explain the su zhì of the synthetic battalion. ”

I believe that Staff Officer Li's words are not comforting polite words, because I have a bottom in my heart about what the Su zhì of the synthetic battalion is, but I still shook my head: "This is not enough!" ”

Because I know very well that the battlefield is a place of victory and defeat, and the enemy will not give us any chance to give a reason.

Originally, I thought that being at the plateau was just a matter of physical training, but as the training deepened, it soon became clear that this was not the case.

The first is that the target is not accurate, even the soldiers of the sniper company are the same, and there will even be a phenomenon of missing the target.

I know from Staff Officer Li that this is because the air density is different, because the air is thin, so compared with the plain, the resistance of the bullet flying on the plateau will be less than that of the air, that is to say, the bullet can fly farther and the trajectory is straighter.

As the saying goes, the soldiers of the synthetic battalion have become accustomed to the density of the air on the plain, and it can even be said that they have formed a conditioned reflex, that is, they naturally estimate the deviation. But once you get to this plateau, this offset has to be readjusted.

The same situation with artillery shells is similar, and it can even be said that the situation of artillery shells is even worse, because the shells hit a curve and travel a longer path in the air than bullets, so they are more affected. Mortar shooters, who were originally on the plains, frequently missed the target at this time.

What is even more severe is that a day or two later, altitude sickness also became epidemic among the soldiers, one by one dizziness, vomiting, insomnia, and Yan zhòng also suffered from pulmonary edema and was in a trance.

I didn't react much in these areas, but my temper became very irritable, and I scolded people and wanted to hit people at every turn...... Originally, I thought it was because I saw the soldiers in this state, but after listening to Staff Officer Li's explanation, I realized that this was also a kind of altitude sickness. That is to say, under the influence of various factors on the plateau, it is easy to get depression or anxiety, that is, it will have a very negative impact on people's psychology.

This is also expressed in the soldiers, but this is normal, you must know that what they were best at or most proud of in the past was "physical fitness", "coordination", "shooting" and other military qualities, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the synthetic battalion has reached the top state in these military qualities.

But as the saying goes, "the higher you climb, the worse you fall", if we are recruits, anyway, when we are in the plains, our military qualities are not good, and we are rookies in the plains, and we are also rookies in this plateau, so we can practice from scratch. However, the synthetic battalion, in the plains, is a tiger who becomes a sick cat when he arrives on this plateau, and then he is stimulated by a joint training battalion, so he is naturally psychologically uncomfortable, and his reaction will be stronger.

"Comrades!" A few days later, I summoned the fighters to the playground for a short meeting: "I know what the comrades are thinking, and everyone is aggrieved and unconvinced during this period of training. But we are glad that our opponent is a battalion, that is, our own comrades, and comrades, think about it, if our opponent is the enemy, what will happen now? ”

"The battalion commander is right!" The instructor continued, "So this is an opportunity for us, an opportunity to learn from other troops. Where are we going to synthesize the camp...... It was too long to stand at the top of the pyramid, and it can almost be said that it has not tasted defeat since its formation, which directly leads to the arrogance and arrogance of some comrades in our team, and now it is just right for us to know one point, that is, 'there are people outside the people, and there are heavens outside the sky'. ”

"Of course!" After a pause, the instructor continued: "It may be a little inappropriate for me to say this, but in terms of military quality, we are not weaker than the first battalion at all, and the synthetic battalion has only not adapted to the combat environment of the plateau for the time being, which is also where many comrades are not convinced. But here's the problem...... The battlefield will not give us any reason, inferior to others is inferior to others. Therefore, I hope that the soldiers can let go of the mentality of being superior to others in the past and learn from the comrades of the first battalion with an open mind, only in this way can they make progress, strive to surpass them, and better accomplish their tasks on the battlefield in the future! ”

These words made the soldiers in the audience nod frequently.

In fact, as the instructor said, a considerable part of the soldiers in the synthetic battalion are arrogant, thinking that it would be good if we didn't teach the first battalion how to fight, and the first battalion would still teach us?!

In this state of mind, there are many fighters who disdain the experience imparted by the first battalion during training, or do not take it for granted, listen to it but still do it according to their own way. I don't know that the warriors' suit may be applicable in the plains, but it is likely to be fatal in the plateau.

In fact, this is also good, there is a saying that "people must be arrogant but not arrogant", and this altitude training is just the arrogance of a dozen synthetic battalions.

After that, I discussed it with Staff Officer Li and other cadres, and I decided that this kind of adaptive training should not be carried out in a hurry, but should be carried out in several stages.

We have developed a new training plan: first lower the altitude and pull the troops to a position at an altitude of 3,000 meters for training...... Although this altitude is still different from the plains, it is much better than the altitude of more than 4,000 meters, and we have helicopters, which can easily provide supplies up and down, so this is not much difficulty for us.

After the troops have adapted to life and combat at an altitude of 3,000 meters, they can gradually raise the altitude to carry out training, such as raising 600 or 800 meters above sea level at a time, so that the training can be completed in three stages.

Staff Officer Li couldn't help but feel embarrassed by my training plan, and said, "We've been here for more than ten years, so why can't we think of this method." ”

In fact, I believe that it is not because they didn't think of this method, but because they want to establish several sub-bases and conduct phased training without helicopters, it is better to stay up at a high place for a longer time and slowly get used to it. (To be continued......)
