At this time.

The recruits were vast, and the slogans were extremely loud.

But Li Xiu, who was at the head of the queue, was a little helpless.

There was no way, Shi Jianxiong assigned him a difficult task by name.

Carry the military flag.

Military flags, company flags! It is the soul of a soldier.

Li Xiu had the best physical fitness and the most outstanding performance in the recruit company, so naturally he carried the military flag and walked at the head of the platoon.

"People don't fall the flag, people die and the flag is up!"

Shi Jianxiong's original words made Li Xiu quite helpless.

Winters in the region are cold.

Especially in the early morning, it is at least minus ten degrees.

Li Xiu was just glad that the wind was relatively small, otherwise Li Xiu felt that his hands might be frozen.

This time, the route of the march did not follow the Gobi Desert last time, but went around in half a circle, thinking of another trail in the west.

"Stay in formation, no one can be left behind!"

"No one is allowed to leave the team without permission"

Shi Jianxiong admonished in the back.

At this time, instructor Jiang Shanhai walked next to Shi Jianxiong, looked at the neat recruits, and nodded slightly.

"This group of recruits is full of vitality."

"Energetic?" Shi Jianxiong smiled when he heard this, and said, "It's only five kilometers, and they are naturally energetic." Wait until you've reached 15 kilometers before you try again? ”

Jiang Shanhai was noncommittal, and reminded: "The weather is okay, right?" ”

The climate in Xinjiang is changeable, and extreme weather is constant.

Shi Jianxiong nodded and said, "Don't worry, I looked at the weather forecast... It shouldn't be a problem. ”

Jiang Shanhai nodded, slightly relieved.

He sighed again: "The snow road is difficult." ”

Shi Jianxiong said with a smile: "We have walked this road more than a dozen times, and we have to come once a year, don't worry, there will be no problems." ”

"Besides, where are these cubs? Before, the camping training of the unit I belonged to was several times higher than this. ”

"Our slogan at that time was that we were not afraid of hardship, and we were not afraid of death. There are roads that do not walk the Gobi, there are bridges but there are glaciers, there are houses that do not sleep in the snow, and there is water that does not drink and eat ice and snow. Everything is in preparation for war. Now they're running this way... What about the housekeepers? Shi Jianxiong shook his head.

"Aren't they still recruits? If you want you to practice like the four companies, I will never stop you. "Jiangshan Haido.

Shi Jianxiong laughed, and then said: "Don't worry, the containment car is behind, if you can't hold it, go to sleep in the car."

Jiang Shanhai was relieved.

………………

At the beginning there was a road, and the recruits followed the road. Wrapped in silver on both sides, the ground is hard.

The road surface is icy and uneven, and it is very awkward.

The slogans of the recruits have gradually become smaller with time.

After all, they were fully armed at this time, carrying twenty-five kilograms, which was half the weight of the previous armament. Moreover, when you reach five kilometers, the road also has a slope.

The backache and shoulder pain, many recruits began to gasp.

"I've only walked ten kilometers, and I can't stand it?"

"Don't forget, there's a snow-capped mountain ahead of us! Now, you are on the dirt road, which is the best and most comfortable way. ”

Shi Jianxiong saw that the recruits at the end showed signs of falling behind, and reprimanded lightly.

The reprimanded recruits can only bite the bullet and continue to rush forward.

Many recruits have long lost the enthusiasm they started with.

There was no way, there was too much weight on their bodies, and they couldn't breathe.

Also, I haven't eaten breakfast yet.

Li Xiu carried the flag in front of him, and hurried forward step by step.

Jiang Shanhai suddenly looked at Li Xiu carrying the flag, and said in surprise: "Li Xiu." Why are you still carrying the flag? Carrying the flag for ten kilometers? ”

Li Xiu's face was not red or panting, and he nodded.

He doesn't have much pressure, he usually practices holding a gun, and he is more tired than this.

After all, holding a gun requires a very steady hand, and carrying the flag as long as the flag does not fall.

Moreover, Li Xiu found that carrying the flag is actually a basic skill for recruits.

The basic skills of the recruit company that were finally brushed out, Li Xiu naturally couldn't miss the opportunity to brush the scroll king.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Shanhai said: "Change someone, you rest for a while."

Unexpectedly, Li Xiu smiled and said, "Instructor, I have good physical strength, I'll resist for a while." ”

Jiang Shanhai nodded, and asked again, "Are you tired?"

It's a little bit. After all, Li Xiu was still wearing a sand vest, and although he didn't have sand leggings, he was carrying an astonishing forty kilograms of weight.

Still, he shook his head, "I'm not tired. ”

There is a volume king worth the liver, what is it if you are tired.

Jiang Shanhai didn't say much, patted Li Xiu's shoulder, and said, "I can't hold it anymore, I can change people." ”

Li Xiu nodded and continued to march.

After another kilometer of marching, Shi Jianxiong finally told everyone to stop.

"Okay, let's rest in place for ten minutes, ahead, the first snow-capped mountain no man's land we have to cross."

As soon as Shi Jianxiong's words fell, a group of recruits squatted down tiredly, and they sat directly on the ground regardless of whether the ground was dirty or not.

"I'm so tired, tired and hungry"

"This weight is really terrible, twenty-five kilograms, I feel like I'm carrying a stone"

"There's still more than a hundred kilometers to go."

One by one, the recruits cherished the hard-won opportunity to rest, and quickly took out the prepared self-prepared food from their pockets.

"It's over, my steamed buns are frozen"

"I can't bite it, what should I do."

"Oh my teeth!"

But at this moment, the recruits were stunned to find that their steamed buns were all frozen and hard, and when they bit into their mouths, they had to be softened with saliva before they could be chewed.

It's only ten minutes, and it's too late to start a fire.

For a while, everyone was in trouble.

Shi Jianxiong looked at everyone and said coldly: "If it's frozen, you can't eat it?" ”

"Why are you so squeamish?! When the People's Liberation Army was fighting, the ancestors gnawed cold and hard raw potatoes. ”

For a while, the recruits were silent.

"Ten minutes, I'll still only give you ten minutes."

"In ten minutes, we'll start walking in the snow."

As soon as the words fell.

Li Xiu did not hesitate to nibble on the steamed buns, take a sip of the steamed buns, and drink a sip of water.

Along with the water, the steamed buns gradually softened and became easier to chew.

Seeing that Li Xiu took the lead, the rest of the people also did the same.

A whole piece of frozen steamed bun is stuffed into the belly, but the taste is not good.

However, the steamed bun is only frozen on the surface, and the inside is still soft.

Li Xiu stuffed the steamed buns deep inside the backpack and let the steamed buns be wrapped in a thick backpack to limit heat exchange.

And, pass on this skill to other recruits.

With Li Xiu's prestige, the recruits in the second class naturally did the same, and Li Xiu naturally couldn't control the rest.

After resting, everyone was ready to continue their journey.

As time passed, the ground became steeper and steeper, but the recruits remained in full formation, driving one step at a time.

After walking another five kilometers, they suddenly found that the road was gradually disappearing, and the ground was covered with a shallow layer of silver, and the ramp was getting steeper and steeper.

It's finally time to cross the snowy road.

Snowy roads, bumpy.

The ground is slippery.

The snow is shallow at first, but the more you walk, the deeper the footprints get.

However, Shi Jianxiong is obviously not the first time to come, and he is familiar with the road and walks in front, leading the team forward.

And, prepare the first exercise project.
