I asked you to escape, but you became a soldier in World War II

Chapter 84 See you again, old acquaintance

After a good sleep, Lin Chen felt refreshed again.

He set the wake-up time at five in the morning. After blowing the emergency assembly call downstairs, the team members quickly rushed to gather.

I have to say that the quality of this group of soldiers is indeed good. The assembly time of more than five minutes is already good, but it is far worse than when Lin Chen served in the army in his previous life!

"Tell me about it!"

Everyone stand at attention!

"Your gathering time is too slow!" When Lin Chen said this, everyone was dumbfounded.

Is this slow? In the Red Army, everyone is already the best at emergency assembly speed. It is hard to imagine that there can be faster?

"If we encounter an enemy situation, our assembly time is our reaction time. If we are slow to react, we won't even be able to drink soup, let alone win the battle! Everyone, watch me demonstrate how to assemble in an emergency!"

Under Lin Chen's order, everyone had to follow Lin Chen to the soldiers' dormitory on the second floor. He chose a bed closest to the inside, then took off his clothes and covered himself with a quilt.

Sergei beside him was holding a watch to start timing. When he nodded and started timing from the hour, Lin Chen put on his clothes, pants and shoes at an extremely fast speed. Since there was no need to roll the quilt into tofu blocks, time was greatly saved.

In a series of dazzling movements, he had packed his luggage, took his weapons and rushed downstairs at full speed.

Run to the designated assembly point, straighten your appearance, and stand at attention.

Only two and a half minutes?

This is really scary!

But all this happened right before our eyes, and we had to admit it.

"Listen carefully! Starting tomorrow, the emergency assembly time must be within 4 minutes. If you fail to complete it, you will be charged an additional 1 kilometer for every second you exceed the time limit. Those who exceed 1 minutes will be eliminated!"

Everyone looked at each other, wondering if this would really work.
"Did you hear it clearly?" Lin Chen asked loudly.

"I heard it clearly!" He answered loudly.

"Okay, now let's have a snack before breakfast and run five kilometers fully armed. Everyone, turn right! Follow us!" He took the lead and rushed ahead.

Before this, everyone had done armed cross-country running, and even practiced longer 10-kilometer races, but their speed was far from as fast as Lin Chen's. He sprinted almost from the beginning, and after just one kilometer, some soldiers could not hold on.

Instead of scolding, Lin Chen ran to the end of the team and helped the lagging soldiers carry their rifles, bullet bags and food bags.

Upon seeing this, the Soviet soldiers gritted their teeth and ran desperately, and their instructors had to take over the weight. This was really embarrassing!
"Pay attention to maintaining your breathing and rhythm. Don't breathe too quickly. Coordinate your pace, breathe in and out regularly, lengthen the intervals between breaths, and move forward at a constant speed!" Lin Chen was teaching them loudly how to control their breathing while running.

After his guidance, things really got better. With one kilometer left, Lin Chen had already carried the equipment of three people. The weight was astonishing, but even so, he still had enough energy to sprint forward, and finally reached the finish line first.

This endurance is simply as strong as that of ghosts and gods!

"Captain Lin, I'm really impressed. You're so awesome!" Sergei, as the big guy in the team and also the team's machine gunner, ran all the way carrying an MG34 machine gun and several bullet belts, but in the end he was overtaken by Lin Chen who was carrying more and heavier things. This touched him deeply.

If the two of them carry the same weight, he will probably be crushed by Captain Lin again. He is really a little doubtful now, is there anything Captain Lin can't do?
The three who ran to the finish line empty-handed were ashamed. It was too embarrassing to run so slowly even though their instructors took away their equipment. What other reason was there? They would definitely be eliminated. The three of them thought about the ridicule they would face when they returned to their original units, and their faces turned pale.

But unexpectedly, Lin Chen didn't say anything. He just returned the things to them and said, "There are other subjects later. You still have a chance!"

The three of them were immediately energized again. Although they had poor endurance, their other subjects might not be bad.

Sure enough, there were other subjects to come, such as armed swimming, tongue catching, and combat training. Everyone was working hard and determined not to fall behind, and the competition was unprecedentedly fierce.

Two days later, Major Antonov sent several more batches of soldiers, all of whom were recruited from various troops. Among them, Lin Chen also met an old friend - Hanta.

After the two of them exchanged greetings, Hanta felt indeed very ashamed under everyone's extremely envious gazes.

"Lin, oh no, Instructor Lin, I was really distracted last time and made a serious mistake. I almost missed something important."

"Forget it, let the past be the past! You have the ability, so take it as a warning! But let me be frank, everything here is open, fair and just. If you want to stay, you must show the qualities of an elite veteran. If you can't beat them, you will have to pack up and leave!" Lin Chen spoke the truth. In this special forces, there is no such thing as personal relationships or face. The only thing that matters is strength!

"I understand. I will do my best! I will never embarrass you! I will never embarrass our 13th Guards Division!" Ever since Hanta recovered from his injury, he felt too embarrassed to return to his old unit, and had been hanging around in the service unit in the rear. This time, he happened to have such an opportunity, so he passed layers of preliminary selection and got here. How could he give up so easily?

In the later training and elimination, Lin Chen's words and deeds were consistent. Everything was based on the assessment results. Those who could stay were the top students. Of course, those who were eliminated could only leave in tears without saying a word!
In just one month, there were only twelve team members left. Fortunately, Hanta was still among them.

Before the final announcement of whether or not one can become a member of the "Red Star" special operations team, no one knows whether they will be the ones leaving tomorrow.

The weather in early June was already quite hot. Major Antonov had urged us several times that we had to form a final army next week. We only needed 10 people in total! In other words, we would have to eliminate 2 more people.

Lin Chen chose a relatively cool day and came to inform everyone to prepare to board the plane immediately as they would be conducting skydiving training today!

Although there had been similar training before, no one had ever jumped with a parachute. Skydiving from a high altitude was an unprecedented training.

Despite their nervousness, everyone still walked onto the Li-2 transport plane with their heads held high. Everyone knew that if they retreated at this time, they would definitely be eliminated, because Lin Chen had told everyone that 10 was the upper limit and the lower limit was uncertain!
When selecting special forces members, it is better to have no one than to have the wrong one!

The transport plane quickly flew to an altitude of three thousand meters, and Lin Chen was still giving his final instructions loudly!

"Check your equipment, don't think too much, just open your parachute pack and complete the last jump according to the training landing posture, and you will be a heroic special forces member!"

As they were talking, the green indicator light came on, which meant that they had reached the target area and could carry out the parachute mission.

Sergei jumped first. Although he was also nervous, he was a veteran who had fought in the battlefield after all. He was not afraid of death, so why would he be afraid of heights? He gritted his teeth and jumped out.

Next! Soldier Lechi's legs felt a little weak, but he still jumped down under everyone's urging.

Everything went relatively smoothly, and the last soldier was Hanta.

When he walked to the cabin door and looked down, the altitude of 3,000 meters made him feel the urge to pee. He was actually afraid of heights, and this height was beyond his limit.

He looked at Lin Chen in despair, and Lin Chen shouted at him that he must jump down, otherwise he would be eliminated!
Hanta tried twice but still couldn't overcome the fear in his heart. Lin Chen could only kick him from behind.
With a cry of despair, Hanta finally went down.
Lin Chen also leaped up and followed closely behind.
