Soldiers' Assault: Veteran Special Agents and New Recruits

Chapter 209: The Battle Between Reckmin and the Railway! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Jackie Chan carried the heaviest supplies in the team, twice the weight of his teammates, and landed perfectly, almost at the center point.

Tuo Yonggang was a little less skilled than Jackie Chan; his landing was off by about 20 meters.

As a professional paratrooper, Tuo Yonggang is quite satisfied with his performance; achieving this result in extreme load-bearing parachute control is already quite impressive.

As for Jackie Chan, who is not a professional paratrooper, he was able to jump perfectly to the center point.

Having witnessed so many of Jackie Chan's "miracles," Tuo Yonggang had become accustomed to them and, aside from mentally calling him a pervert, had little interest in them.

Instead, he immediately turned to look up at the sky, keeping an eye on his teammates who were being dumped onto the ground like dumplings.

One, two, three, four!

Four large mushrooms were planted in the ground one after another, and then collapsed quickly within a few seconds, turning into "mushroom slices".

The good news is that everyone landed safely, and no team member was injured upon landing.

The bad news is that I lost a point.

Wu Zhe, Xu Sanduo, and Yang Songlin all pushed themselves to the limit. After doing everything they could, they managed to land just outside the rim of the circle without any major incident.

Comrade Wu Liuyi, who hadn't checked the almanac before leaving home, landed in the woods outside the designated landing zone.

The difference was not just tens of meters.

It's stuck in the tree, damn it.

The referees, sitting in helicopters overhead, had a clear view of the exercise and couldn't cheat. The blue team unfortunately missed their first point.

Meanwhile, dozens of kilometers away, the entire Red Army easily jumped into the circle.

The advantage of having a one-point lead upon landing.

And because the entire squad jumps to very close positions, they can assemble on the ground in a very short time.

They immediately opened the military map they had just received, took out their compasses to find their way, and after a brief discussion within the team, the entire group headed towards the first strategic point.

The whole process took less than 5 minutes.

In contrast, the blue team's members were too scattered, and one of them was stuck in a tree and couldn't get down. At this point, the team had not yet fully assembled.

Xu Sanduo, Wu Zhe, and Yang Songlin had just taken off their parachutes, which had already completed their mission, and entered the woods to rescue Wu Liuyi, who was hanging from a tree.

Jackie Chan only had Tuo Yonggang by his side, who was fully equipped; it was still a long way from the team's complete assembly.

"Thankfully, at least everyone landed safely."

Seeing that the start was unfavorable and there was nothing he could do, Jackie Chan could only think of the best-case scenario and then try to make up for the lost time.

While waiting for the others to arrive and gather, Jackie Chan took out the military map.

After a thorough survey, the direction and location of the first strategic point were determined. Then, the auxiliary bag was opened, and 20 Type 95 magazines were taken out.

Wu Zhe and the other four did not have enough weight for their parachute jump, but they still had to carry things while walking.

While I can't carry heavy loads like Jackie Chan, who often runs around carrying nearly 100 kilograms, carrying 60 or 70 kilograms at most shouldn't be a problem.

It has now been implemented and can be supplemented.

The tactical vest's bullet pockets can hold two magazines, and the four bullet pockets can hold eight magazines, which is just enough to fill up Wu Zhe and the other four people.

"Here, load these four magazines."

Tuo Yonggang was standing right next to him, and Jackie Chan gave him his share first.

"Captain, you're really amazing! Parachuting with a 100-kilogram load, I've never seen anything like it in my life. Today has really opened my eyes. Let me tell you, if I went back to my old company and told them that someone could parachute with a 100-kilogram load, they would definitely think I was bragging."

Tuo Yonggang spoke with great admiration, and then added jokingly, "With you as our mobile arsenal, life is truly comfortable. We don't need to worry about ammunition supplies at all, haha."

Logistics are crucial on the battlefield.

Especially in small-scale operations, logistical support is of paramount importance.

"This is just a competition. If we were really on the battlefield, I would still have to carry a heavy machine gun. 100 kilograms of weight wouldn't even be enough for me, let alone you guys."

Jackie Chan fastened the buckle on the secondary bag and said seriously, "Your load-bearing capacity is too poor. Wait until after the competition when you get back."

They all need to train really hard, at least to the point of carrying over 60 kilograms of weight.

As Jackie Chan spoke, he lifted the secondary bag, placed it on the main backpack, and tied it tightly with ropes, creating an extra-large backpack.

Standing there, it was over 1.3 meters tall, and its total weight was 89 kilograms.

Such an exaggerated backpack...

Only someone with Jackie Chan's large physique could carry it.

"Train to over 60 kilograms? My god, do you think everyone is as freakish as you?"

Looking at the large backpack on his chest, Tuo Yonggang felt his legs go weak at the thought of carrying a weight that was half his own.

"I'm better than you guys because I trained hard. If you're willing to train, you can be as good as me too."

Jackie Chan tried to give Tuo Yonggang some chicken soup, but Tuo Yonggang refused to drink a drop.

He curled his lip and retorted, "Captain, if I remember correctly, your physique is natural, something you were born with, right?"

"What do you mean by 'innate'? I've been practicing since I was in the womb! Can you imagine how hard I've worked?"

Jackie Chan spouted nonsense with a straight face, leaving Tuo Yonggang both amused and exasperated, yet powerless to refute him. He could only helplessly watch Jackie Chan show off.

Eight minutes after landing.

Wu Zhe and his group of four finally left the woods and met up with Jackie Chan in the center of the field.

Wu Liuyi is a very competitive person, but he didn't expect that his parachuting would slow down the team, causing them to fall behind by a few minutes. He was full of self-blame.

Affected by Wu Liuyi's dejected mood, the morale of the entire team was quite low.

"Stop being so girly, cheer up! It's only a few minutes slower, it's not like we've lost. Just try to catch up."

Jackie Chan picked up four magazines with one hand and slammed them heavily onto Wu Liuyi's chest.

It's not just about providing equipment, it's about giving strength.

The dejected air that Wu Liu had in his eyes was instantly dispelled by Jackie Chan's trust, and he returned to his true self, still the stubborn and strong-willed officer.

Jackie Chan was very satisfied with Wu Liuyi's adjustment speed, and pointed to the remaining magazines on the ground, saying, "You three, take these magazines too, four each."

Everyone knew their progress was definitely slower than the Red Team's, so they quickly grabbed the magazines and loaded them onto their bodies.

"Time is of the essence, so let's talk as we walk, and stay close together."

Before everyone could load their magazines, Jackie Chan led the way and strode toward the strategic point, saying as he walked, "It's 7:10 now. Let's assume the Red Team can assemble within 5 minutes and head toward the strategic point."

That means we're 5 minutes behind them and we also have one less point.

To capture the first strategic point and recover the points we've fallen behind in, we have no choice but to race against time in the 25km mountain trail running event.

At a normal marching speed, it would take at least 5 hours to cover 25 kilometers.

The Red Team started 5 minutes earlier, which isn't much in a 5-hour journey. As long as they could find a way to increase their speed, catching up with the Red Army wouldn't be difficult.

The problem is that the enemy is not an ordinary company, but the Wolf Fang Special Forces, which are extremely skilled in mountain warfare.

Their speed in traversing mountains and valleys is definitely much faster than Team A's.

Now, on the Red Team's home turf, Jackie Chan has no guarantee that they can actually shorten the time if they push the speed to the limit.

All we can do is speed up our journey and reach the first strategic point in the shortest possible time.

If the Blue Team reaches the strategic point before the Red Team, the Blue Team will also gain a point, and both teams will be able to compete for the first strategic point under equal conditions.

In order to shorten the marching time, Jackie Chan went to great lengths.

Not only did he take the lead and carry the heaviest load, but he also took the responsibility of clearing the way with a machete, putting in extra effort to save energy for his teammates.

This way, all rest breaks along the way can be eliminated, and all time can be used to catch up on lost progress.

A normal march takes about an hour, with a rest period of 5 to 15 minutes in between.

Jackie Chan doesn't rest for even a minute.

We walked the entire 25 kilometers in one go, and then rested when we reached the first strategic point.

With Jackie Chan, the human tank, leading the way, the Spade Axe Commando team members moved very easily and at a very fast pace.

The speed reached an astonishing 7 kilometers per hour, which is almost comparable to jogging on a flat road.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the speed is very low at 7 kilometers per hour.

With each person carrying nearly 60 kilograms of weight, maintaining a speed of 7 kilometers per hour in the jungle is basically the limit for humans.

……

Inside the exercise center located in the Kunming Military Sub-district, a large number of people came to watch this ultimate showdown. Apart from the exercise team staff, there were thirty or forty people just watching.

Among them were several leaders who were against Jin Doudou; they sat in the central position, watching and chatting.

As the highest-ranking commanders of the two participating teams, Rekmin and Railway could only serve as guests, standing and chatting in the next seat.

The two watched through the large screen in front of the center as the red and blue teams, broadcast back from a helicopter, rapidly advanced through the primeval jungle.

The two had different expressions.

"Railway, are your people really from the plains? They all seem like mountain monkeys to me, moving a bit too fast through the jungle."

Lei Keming joked, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"They have no choice; they're forced into this situation. Their progress is already five or six minutes slower than yours. If they don't hurry up, the first strategic point will be out of their reach," the railway worker said with rare humility.

The Ace of Spades commando team's parachute jump was a disgrace; they were worse than even the paratroopers, let alone the special forces.

Our own people didn't put on airs.

The railway has no choice but to be humble.

"You can't say that."

Lei Keming switched between the two screens, his eyes sharp as he said, "Your men are clearly faster. If they continue at this speed, they will catch up quickly, or even surpass my men."

Of course, the premise is that they can hold on. Running at high intensity for several hours in a row is not an easy thing, and I don't think your people can handle it.

It's like a long-distance race; if you exert too much effort at the beginning, you won't be able to run anymore later.

Lei Keming is not trying to belittle anyone!

There are no paths in the primeval jungle; those in front must constantly clear a way forward.

This requires not only an exceptional sense of direction, but also the ability to always choose the best route forward to prevent the team from getting into a dead end.

If you end up in a cliff or ravine, having to go back the way you came is a huge waste of time.

The leader also has to expend a huge amount of physical strength because he has to continuously swing his machete to clear the way; the faster he walks, the faster the cards are approved.

The physical exertion required is enormous.

Even if a small team takes turns clearing the way, it generally won't last long; they'll need to rest and recuperate after advancing a certain distance.

After all, they were carrying dozens of kilograms of supplies, and walking was already very difficult.

Lei Keming didn't believe that the old A team from the railway could have such abnormally strong members who could walk for three or four hours straight without stopping.

Whether it can hold up or not, the answer will be revealed soon. Let's wait and see.

Railway laughed, a smile radiating confidence.

Lei Keming is unknown to outsiders.

The railway has not forgotten.

Their Old A team has a physical monster; the kind of physical work that ordinary people simply can't do, can be summed up in six words—

Anything is possible!!
