Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

Chapter 29: A Day of Exhaustion and Collapse

When it comes to physical training, the most common one is cross-country training.

Including armed off-road and light off-road.

Armed cross-country means that soldiers need to carry weapons and equipment and march quickly while running.

Lightweight off-roading does not require carrying weapons or equipment, or only requires carrying a small amount of weapons and equipment.

What the Veterinary Corps is carrying out today is an armed cross-country race of about five kilometers.

The distance from Yangcun Station to Liujia Village is about five kilometers.

The equipment carried by the special forces members included standard MP 38 submachine guns, armored soldier helmets, grenades, daggers, and armed backpacks.

Kong Jie calculated the total weight very accurately. He even used a beam scale to weigh it before. If the weight was not enough, he would just put stones in the bag.

Ultimately, it was ensured that the weight carried by each member was around 10 kilograms.

That's it.

In Kong Jie's words: "Considering that we have just started the physical training, I will only give you 10 kilograms of weight this time."

The players' performance was quite manly.

After all, he is a veteran in the team and occasionally participates in cross-country training on weekdays.

Especially for the Eighth Route Army troops, which had almost no mechanized vehicles, no matter whether the battle was tens or hundreds of kilometers, they had to rely on the soldiers' feet.

We endured 25,000 miles during the Long March, so what is there to be afraid of?

The Red Army traveled around the world barefoot, and this is no exaggeration.

Just do it!

After enjoying three days of eating and sleeping, the soldiers felt that they had endless energy. They even set off with strange shouts and were very excited at first.

"It's just five kilometers, what's the big deal?"

Monk Wei, who has a solid foundation in martial arts and extraordinary physical fitness, said proudly: "When I was in Shaolin Temple, I carried buckets weighing 50 to 60 kilograms and went up and down the mountain several times a day. It was much more tiring than this.

This is just the beginning! "

Kong Jie, who was leading the race at the front, chose to remain silent.

Show off as much as you can, because you will eventually cry.

In the end, the entire team set off on time at 5:30 in the morning and left Yangcun. They chose a rugged mountain road along the way, mixed with various other terrains to ensure that the soldiers' armed cross-country could be familiar with various difficult and complex terrains.

As the time goes.

The distance was rapidly shortening under the soldiers' feet.

one kilometer.

Two kilometers.

...four kilometers.

The soldiers, who were initially very excited and even had time to chat while jogging, now all wisely shut up and, breathing heavily, marched forward with their feet as if they were filled with lead.

In the end, except for fighters with extraordinary physical fitness like Wei Dayong.

The rest of the soldiers were all exhausted.

When I reached the last kilometer, every step I took felt extremely difficult. I wanted to just lie down on the ground and give up.

It was not until after six o'clock that we arrived at our destination.

On an unnamed hill outside Liujia Village.

Since this was the first time to conduct such a high level of physical training, Kong Jie did not set strict time requirements.

Including his own body, which was also extremely tired.

Li Yunlong, who was not far away, was not in much better condition, gasping for breath.

After taking a few breaths.

Kong Jie said loudly: "After 20 minutes of rest, we will proceed to the next training project."

The order was given.

The soldiers almost collapsed to the ground.

Kong Jie shouted, "Hold on, work in pairs, massage each other's leg muscles to relax them, try to relieve fatigue, and never lie on the ground.

Physical training must be scientific, and I will teach you slowly."

The 20-minute break passed in a flash.

Kong Jie led the team again and returned from Liujia Village towards the base.

While walking on the mountain road, Kong Jie taught the team members another lesson.

Wilderness survival topics.

Including identifying some edible and non-toxic wild vegetables and fruits.

In the wild, how to determine the direction by using big trees, the sun or the moon.

As well as the practices and experiences on how to find water sources and filter water sources simply and effectively, etc.

"How to survive in such a harsh environment in the wild will be one of the important subjects of our special operations team's special training.

We are fighting against the Japanese army and conducting special operations. The mountainous environment will be one of the most common environments for us. If we want to ensure victory in every battle, we must first conquer these continuous mountains.

Drilling wood to make fire, filtering water, identifying directions, keeping warm, building emergency shelters, including how to respond to bites from venomous snakes and insects in the wild, etc.

These are things that everyone needs to learn slowly.

Everyone should be mentally prepared. In the subsequent special training, we will be conducting seven-day survival training in the wild without any equipment, food or water. This will be one of our training items.”

The team members were very excited and nodded their heads. Some were even eager to try it out, but they probably didn't understand what the seven-day wilderness survival training meant.

For these veterans of the Eighth Route Army, most of them were originally from peasant families and were used to dealing with the mountains.

So learning these things will be twice the result with half the effort.

Explain along the way.

Before they knew it, the team had returned to the independent regiment's base.

Then, Kong Jie took the team members to a more remote corner southeast of the regiment’s headquarters.

There, there is a training ground specially built by Kong Jie for the soldiers in the regiment according to the drawings he drew in the past few days.

All I saw was the huge rice field that was originally empty.

There are special single and double bars, uneven bars, rings, dumbbells made of stones tied to both sides of wooden sticks, and all the equipment involved in the 400-meter obstacle training, including five-step piles, ladders, low-pile nets, trenches, etc.

Some of the equipment was something the soldiers had seen before, while others were something they had never heard of.

But for men, when they see these equipment, which they can probably guess are used for physical training, they always have an urge to try them out.

then……

At eight o'clock sharp, equipment training officially began.

Following Kong Jie’s instructions, start with the most basic full set of push-up training.

Then comes the single and double bar training.

Next came the instruction on the 400-meter obstacle race, and actual attempt training by the soldiers.

After lunch, the afternoon continues.

It includes anti-exposure shooting training - holding a rifle with a brick hanging from the muzzle with a rope, standing still in the sun for an hour and then aiming.

After this series of training, the soldiers were almost exhausted.

Just when everyone thought this was the end.

Kong Jie's voice sounded again.

"After dinner, we'll take a half-hour break and then head to Liujia Village for a round-trip armed cross-country training."

ooh ooh-

The soldiers screamed in surprise, and even Monk Wei, who had the strongest physical fitness, couldn't help but grimace with a bitter look on his face.

The team leader is too cruel!

In a trance, even though I had only done one day of physical training.

The soldiers suddenly understood why the regiment commander called it devil training.

The standard for this training is that there is no standard.

Until Kong Jie had exhausted himself to the point of exhaustion.

Speaking of which, Kong Jie's body is in pretty good physical condition due to his martial arts background.

After a whole day of training, even he was so tired that he could hardly lift a finger, let alone the other soldiers.

Until about ten o'clock in the evening.

When Kong Jie announced that today's training was completely over.

The team members wailed and howled like wolves, as if they had been pardoned. They hurried back to the bunk bed, took off their shoes and socks, lay down on it, and soon began to snore.

I’m really exhausted!
