Chapter 72: Abraham. Erskine

It didn't take long for the entire base to learn about the upcoming exercise.

This group of instructors who took the initiative to smash the field and provoke and publicize thought that they had chosen a good way to solve the problem, but they still delivered food to others in vain, and the left side of the face was beaten and the right face was also raised to beg for whipping.

In the face of this kind of person who takes the initiative to come to the door to find a smoking, it is too late for Zhang Yang to be happy, where will he refuse?

Two days later, the base, which had been quiet for a short time, was lively again, and since the end of the last special forces trial, everyone in the base has a strong interest in the exercise. This kind of simulated war exercise of red-blue confrontation has a very unique advantage. High realism, low danger, and less predictability, which can simulate the situation of battlefield encounters to the greatest extent.

Although there have been similar exercises in the past, they are often ordered by the generals of both sides, and a group of soldiers scream and grab their rifles and rush forward, which starts faster and ends faster. This time, however, the exercise site was held in a relatively unfamiliar mountain forest, and the exercise did not have any prior knowledge of the place, and the battle was decided entirely by one's own experience and experience.

It is conceivable that this new type of exercise will greatly enhance the unpredictability of the battle, and the situation of the battle will inevitably be very exciting.

To the west, which is 23 kilometers away from the base, there are also undulating mountains covered by coniferous forests, with an average altitude of 170 meters to 250 meters, and the highest position is only about 260 meters.

The whole mountain range runs east-west, and the terrain is complex and varied. Among them are mountains, forests, basins, hills. Cliffs, etc., may be separated by an abyss at a seemingly very close distance, and there may be a small stream below that is not frozen, or a dangerous pile of rocks, and the rest of the people know nothing about this place except for the survey and map personnel at the base who know the specific situation.

The place of the exercise was personally chosen by Colonel Phillips, mainly because of the European theater. In the hills, there are more battles in the mountains and forests, and the situation is more complicated than in the open and flat plains. In addition, the plains are the domain of armored divisions, and the main scope of the infantry regiment is still the terrain such as mountains and forests that are inconvenient for armored vehicles and tank vehicles.

Zhang Yang and those instructors agreed with the choice of venue, Zhang Yang needless to say, the special forces he wanted to train were almost tailor-made for mountain warfare. And the other instructors are also veterans in this area. Naturally, he is also full of confidence. On both sides, there is a picture of victory.

The radius of the exercise was 10 kilometers, which was different from the last time the personnel were announced, and the 12 soldiers of each squad held a small map with a brief record of the battlefield terrain and the location of the finish line. The maps of the 5 teams participating in the exercise are the same.

There will be no red and blue teams during the exercise. Five teams are independent, and the other four teams are enemies. The team that reaches the finish line has the most people, and the shorter the time, wins.

Zhang Yang and Carter drove a jeep, a jeep specially built for military use with excellent off-road performance, and a taller chassis that was more suitable for climbing mountain roads, while the drill team had already set off in another truck half an hour earlier, staggering the time with the instructor team and the referee team, which was to prevent the instructors from leaking information.

Along the way, Carter was still a little worried, but after seeing Zhang Yang's expression of victory, he could only force himself to calm down. After arriving at the meeting point, Zhang Yang realized that it was in an open flat area, and there were already seven or eight trucks parked around, and Colonel Phillips had arrived early, chatting with Major Campbell, who had come to the door yesterday. After seeing Zhang Yang and Carter, he immediately waved his hand.

"Captain Zhang Yang, Agent Carter, come to me."

"Hello Colonel."

Zhang Yang and Carter gave a military salute, and then a military salute to the colonel, and Major Campbell seemed to feel a little embarrassed when he saw Zhang Yang, and left in a hurry after making an excuse.

Phillips was an old man, and he could see at a glance the awkward relationship between Zhang Yang and Major Campbell, but he didn't point it out directly. Since he agreed to hold today's exercise, he said that he had already guessed the real reason for this incident, but it happened that Phillips also had the idea of examining Zhang Yang's training progress, so today's exercise was held.

"Carter shouldn't need to be introduced, Zhang Yang, let me introduce you, this is Abraham. Dr. Erskine is our loyal ally. Doctor, this is Captain Zhang Yang. ”

After Campbell left, Phillips changed his words, and then pointed to a Mediterranean doctor who walked down from the truck next to him, and after seeing the other party's figure, Zhang Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hello, Dr. Erskine."

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Captain Zhang Yang."

Wearing a pair of round-rimmed glasses, Erskine looked very amiable and easily approached, with only a few strands of hair on top of his head, and a Mediterranean hairstyle like most respected scientists.

And Erskine's appearance was something that Zhang Yang didn't expect in advance, and the reason is very simple, that is, Phillips didn't have enough trust in Zhang Yang, but Phillips can't be blamed, after all, a yellow man mixed with a group of white soldiers is indeed a little uncomfortable.

It was probably this period of contact, or rather the inspection period, that made Phillips quite satisfied with Zhang Yang's appearance, and then decided to let Zhang Yang get in touch with the core content of the Super Soldier program.

The two talked a few words, but Phillips gave Carter a look, and then the two left, leaving time for Zhang Yang and Erskine.

"Captain Zhang Yang is so young, I thank you on behalf of Dr. Rolf, Dr. Rolf is very important to our allies, thanks to you."

After saying hello to Carter and Phillips, who left, Erskine took the initiative to open the conversation.

What Zhang Yang didn't expect was that Erskine seemed to know the Dr. Rolf. But then he realized that this was not the time to be stunned, and smiled: "I just did my duty, and compared to Dr. Rolf, I don't have that much ability to help." ”

There was undisguised admiration in Erskine's eyes: "Captain Zhang Yang, in fact, I have been paying attention to you since the beginning, and you have given me a lot of surprises. ”

"Well, it's all a little bit of a fight." Zhang Yang thought that the other party was referring to the formation of his own special forces, but Clinker Erskine shook his head, as if he had something else to say.

"I'm looking forward to this team, but I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about you." Erskine patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder: "I've heard people say that you had a physical altercation with Instructor Ben Frank the other day you first came, and it is said that you have the advantage, right?" ”

Zhang Yang looked a little embarrassed, rubbed his hands with an embarrassed face and said, "Well, I did have some skirmishes with Ben one day, but it's okay now." ”

For Erskine's impression, Zhang Yang mainly stays in the executor of the super soldier plan, and is also the most core scientist, but the others are not impressed, because they don't have too many taboos about Erskine asking about themselves, thinking that the other party is to ask him about Steve.

"The interesting thing is here, since you are standing here now, it means that you have enough authority to understand some things, then what I can tell you is that Ben Frank, who was defeated by you, is not an ordinary person."

A sly look flashed in Phillips's eyes: "I'm sure you've heard some news about the Super Soldier, and the one I can reveal is that Ben Frank is one of the people who participated in this real thing, and he has succeeded!" If you are an ordinary person, it is difficult to surpass this Cheng dΓΉ! And among these people, there is you, Captain Zhang Yang! ”

Zhang Yang didn't expect that Erskine's purpose this time was not Steve, but himself, so he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Dr. Erskine, I'm sorry, I didn't know that Ben had such an experience. But it shouldn't have much to do with me, maybe my own situation is a bit special......"

"Captain, don't be nervous, I don't mean anything else when I say this, I just want to tell you that compared to other ordinary people, you are not ordinary at all."

Erskine went around in a big circle and finally told his true purpose.

And Zhang Yang played his role very appropriately, looking at Erskine with a trace of doubt and puzzlement, and Erskine seemed to be very satisfied with Zhang Yang's reaction, and put his hand on his eyes and said: "After participating in that real life, Ben's body is 1.2 times that of a normal person, and he is more powerful than ordinary people, but you can defeat him, what does this mean?" It shows that you are stronger than Ben, and this is your natural advantage. ”

"I still don't understand, what is wrong with my body? Or ......."

"No, no, no, you are very healthy, and normal can no longer be normal, it's just that your body is naturally stronger, maybe you didn't notice it before, or it may be that this power was lurking in your body before, and it was only recently developed, maybe it is related to your experience on the battlefield, I came to you just to learn about this situation, which will be of great help to us in the future."

In the face of Erskine, Zhang Yang has no intention of covering up the facts, because he needs to get closer to the other party, whether it is Howard Stark or Old Nick Fury, they all have a close connection with the Erskine in front of him. (To be continued......)
