Chapter 136 Something happened on the sideline? (Subscribe please!)
A train heading to high altitudes has two oxygen supply systems.

This is to prevent passengers on the train from becoming unable to adapt to the plateau and developing altitude sickness.

After the train passed Golmud, oxygen was supplied to the entire carriage.

Most of the veterans in the train car were fine. After all, most of them had been to plateau areas, so the altitude sickness was not very serious.

But the four new recruits including Lu Qinglong did not have such an easy time.

Except for Lu Qinglong, the other three had some degree of altitude sickness.

Li Wa had a very good physique, so he didn't feel any discomfort from the altitude sickness. He just took a nap and then his body returned to normal.

As for Xue Daochao, he was also okay. His physical fitness could handle it. After a long while, the headache subsided a lot and he was basically fine now.

The only one was Ji Baichang, his body seemed to be unable to bear it.

It wasn't just a headache, I couldn't eat anything and vomited twice in the entire afternoon.

Even Chen Ting had a plan. He would let Ji Baichang get off on the next bus and let him take the bus back to the special operations brigade by himself.

This situation is really rare. It seems that among the new recruits in previous years, the reactions to going to plateau areas were not as severe as his.

"No, squad leader, I don't need it. I can hold on."

"I'll get some sleep and I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

Ji Baichang said this.

I climbed onto the luggage rack with some difficulty, lay down, closed my eyes, and tried to fall asleep.

But his head still hurt so much that he couldn't fall asleep.

This made Chen Ting a little worried. The most seriously injured soldiers he had led seemed to recover in just half a day.

Altitude sickness actually varies from person to person.

Some people may look thin, but they will not have any reaction when they go to the plateau.

Some people exercise regularly and have strong aerobic performance, but when they go to the plateau, they suffer from severe altitude sickness.

"Here, put on your eye mask and earplugs, and drink some warm water before you go to bed."

Chen Ting handed these sleep-promoting things to Ji Baichang one by one, hoping that he would feel better.

Otherwise, he would not have cared about Ji Baichang's request and would have sent him back to the brigade forcefully.

After all, this is not a joke. If it gets serious, it can even be fatal!

As the squad leader, he is responsible for every recruit under him.

Ji Baichang lay on the luggage rack and struggled to fall asleep.

When he opened his eyes the next day, he received a cup of warm water from Chen Ting, along with a sentence:
"How is it? Does your head still hurt?"

"Squad leader, I seem to be feeling better. My head doesn't hurt as much anymore."

Ji Baichang touched his head. Although he still felt a little dizzy, it was much better than before.

"Is this true? Don't lie to me. Drink the hot water first."

Chen Ting handed over the kettle in his hand. Ji Bai took a sip and climbed down from the luggage rack with some difficulty. Only then did he realize that it seemed that all the veterans in the carriage were packing their things.

"We'll be arriving at the station soon. We've packed your things for you. Since you're so weak, I'll carry your backpack for you."

Lu Qinglong walked up to Ji Baichang and said.

Li Wa also smiled at Ji Baichang.

Even Xue Daochao, who always liked to make fun of Ji Baichang, stopped making any noise at this time. He silently took down the quilt that Ji Baichang had just slept on and spread on the luggage rack and folded it up.

Ji Baichang only felt warm in his heart.

This is a comrade-in-arms who can lend you a hand and help you when you are in trouble.

The train's speed gradually decreased until it finally stopped.

"Dear passengers, the train has arrived at Shigatse Station. Passengers who are getting off at Shigatse Station, please prepare your luggage and get off the train."

The train announcement sounded, and the veterans in the carriage got off the train in an orderly manner with their luggage.

Ji Baichang followed behind Lu Qinglong, with Lu Qinglong's broad body walking in front to clear the way for him.

After leaving Shigatse Station, looking at the train station behind him, Ji Baichang couldn't help but take out his mobile phone and take a photo.

(Figure 1)

It is not quite the same as I imagined, especially the huge prayer wheel in front of Shigatse Station.

I originally thought that the train station here would be very shabby. After all, it is so far away and should not be close to prosperity. But when Ji Baichang looked back, he found that Shigatse Station had a sense of grandeur.

"We will first undergo a week of basic training in low-altitude areas. After the training, we will be assigned to our mission locations according to our company."

"Under normal circumstances, our mission is to follow the local troops stationed here and work together."

"Of course, if there is an emergency mission, we will provide support at a high speed."

Sitting on the flat-top diesel troop carrier, Chen Ting simply explained to the four people the purpose of their trip.

"Hey, squad leader? I'm curious if we can keep up with the supplies after we get up here?"

"I saw some news reports saying that the border guards had problems with supplies or something like that."

On the flat-head diesel troop carrier, Ji Baichang, who had recovered a little, also raised his own questions. For example, if Lu Qinglong had such a big appetite, would it be a problem to eat if he was stationed in a small remote unit?

I watched a documentary before about the people defending the island. It showed that supplies were rarely sent here. Would they have to live a life of hunger?
"No, don't worry about that."

"It's impossible for us to go hungry. Don't worry, Lu Qinglong. Our army now uses drones for transportation. You don't have to worry about this."

Chen Ting answered neatly.

He had been stationed in the plateau area before, so he didn't have to worry too much about logistical support, it was completely fine.

"Okay, squad leader."

Ji Baichang nodded, and the dizziness in his head made him not want to speak anymore.

Next, the flat-head diesel troop carrier kept moving forward, from afternoon to evening, and finally arrived at the destination.

This is a military camp built at the foot of the mountain, and it looks brightly lit from a distance.

After getting off the car and walking closer, Ji Baichang was surprised to find that the dormitory they were about to stay in was completely different from what they had imagined.

The dormitory he imagined should be made up of camouflage tents.

I feel very cold when I sleep at night.

But that is not the case.

What caught his eyes were rows of camouflage prefabricated houses equipped with insulation facilities and transparent glass, lined up in a row.

(Figure 2)

"Well, this base has been equipped with it several years ago."

"The new generation of plateau barracks not only have normal water and electricity use, but also heating in winter, sufficient oxygen and complete equipment."

"Let's go, put everything aside, and don't take a shower today. Give it a day to get used to it, and then take a shower tomorrow."

Chen Ting waved his hand and led everyone in the class to their dormitory.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, Ji Baichang could immediately feel that the air, which was originally a little dry, became a lot more moist as he entered the boarding house.

This made him once again appreciate the power of technology.

When he was about to make the bed, Xue Daochao beside him stopped Ji Baichang and stepped forward to help him make the bed.

"Thanks, Lao Xue! I just realized that you are such a reliable man."

Facing Ji Baichang's praise, Xue Daochao just glanced at this guy speechlessly.

Forget it, since he's in pain, I won't bother with him for now.

"All classes, pack up and gather in front of the building in three minutes to prepare for dinner!"

Just as everyone finished packing up their things, the old soldier's shout was heard outside the building.

Under the leadership of Chen Ting, they had already arrived in front of the board house and stood there.

Because of Lu Qinglong's height, Chen Ting led Class 1 to the end of all classes.

The canteen was in another wooden house. This canteen was much larger than the special operations brigade's canteen that morning, and it could accommodate almost an entire battalion of veterans.

The veterans were eating while chatting and laughing. The scene was completely different from what they had experienced in the recruit company before.

It was quite relaxed and not as serious as the recruit company where they were not even allowed to talk while eating.

The food here is also very rich, mostly consisting of meat dishes such as beef and mutton.

The food that Lu Qinglong was given was so delicious that his mouth was drooling. It was because he had the food for an entire battalion in the cafeteria that Lu Qinglong restrained himself a little and did not pay for everyone's meals from the beginning.

"How are you feeling?"

Deputy squad leader Ding Wei picked up a chicken leg and put it on Ji Baichang's plate, then asked cheerfully.

"I feel a little better now, squad leader. I think I should be able to walk normally now. I should be able to sleep well tonight."

Ji Baichang thanked Ding Wei and ate the chicken leg happily.

At this time, at the dining table closest to the cafeteria door, the battalion commander of the first battalion was eating, looking at the map in his hand with a slightly frown on his face.

"Captain Zhang, the brigade commander is calling."

The communicator hurried in from the canteen door and handed the phone to the battalion commander of the first battalion, Zhang Tianqiang, with a slight breath.

Because I had just arrived at the plateau, I was suffering from altitude sickness and could not help gasping for breath after walking a few steps.

"A call from the brigade commander?"

Zhang Tianqiang took the phone and listened to the words of the brigade commander. His brows, which were already furrowed, became even more like the Chinese character "川" after hearing what the brigade commander said.

I wanted to say something, but when the words came to my lips, I could only swallow them and answered honestly:

"Yes, Brigade Commander, let's speed up the process here."

After hanging up the phone, the deputy battalion commander looked at the battalion commander Zhang Tianqiang solemnly:
"Battalion Commander, what did the brigade commander say?"

"Something has happened on the sidelines again, and our involvement is urgently needed."

"I'm afraid the one-week adaptation period will be shortened."

"Three days! We only have three days to adapt."
