Chapter 844 The Last Exercise

Gao Yang didn’t know how often paratroopers in other places performed parachute jumps. Gu Grolev said that when he was serving, it caught up with the most stressful period of the Russian economy, so the intensity of their parachute training changed greatly. Sometimes, I can dance four or five times a month, and at least twice a year.

As for Gao Yang and the others, they did it four times a day, at least four times. In the later stages, after gaining more experience in skydiving, they had to add two very dangerous night skydives.

Generally speaking, as long as you are not a professional paratrooper, one hundred or so parachute jumps is considered a lot, and you definitely have rich experience. As for Gao Yang and the others, it only took them two to go from zero to one hundred jumps. Thirteen days.

If they hadn't jumped with Wolfgang's people, Gao Yang and the others would most likely not have been able to jump so many times in their lives. Even if they learned sports skydiving from a private company, they wouldn't have been able to jump so many times in such a short period of time.

It would take less than a year and a half for ordinary paratroopers to complete all subjects of parachute training. They must take their time step by step, but Gao Yang and others also do it step by step, but they are running forward.

Needless to say, opening a parachute at high altitude is the most basic among the basics. From high-altitude skydiving, where the parachute opens automatically as soon as you jump out of the plane, to jumping out of the plane and then opening the parachute by yourself, it took Gao Yang and the others how many days, two days, After jumping the most basic parachute opening method for two consecutive days, Gao Yang and the others had to open the parachute by themselves.

How many days did it take to go from jumping high and driving high to jumping high and driving low? It was just five days.

What is high jump and low jump? It means jumping out from a height of, say, three thousand meters. Free falling all the time. Waiting is only three hundred meters above the ground. Open the umbrella again when you are two hundred meters away.

Jumping high and flying low has many benefits. It can reduce the radar reflection surface, reduce exposure time, and reach the ground faster. The biggest benefit is being able to land in the target area more accurately. The most powerful and top paratroopers dare to fly at a distance. The parachute was opened when the ground was only about a hundred meters away, almost as soon as the parachute was opened. As soon as the speed slowed down to a safe range, his feet directly touched the ground. Of course, the danger of jumping high and driving low is very, very, very high.

If you master the skills of high jumping and low flying, you will be considered a good paratrooper, but it depends on the standard. For Israel's most elite paratroopers, already the most awesome special forces, this is not enough.

A more dangerous way to skydive than high jumping and low flying. Of course, it jumped low and opened low, and the plane passed through the field at an ultra-low altitude. After the paratrooper jumps out from a height of less than 200 meters, he must immediately adjust his attitude and quickly open the parachute. If the parachute opening time is later, even if the parachute is opened, as long as the falling speed cannot be reduced to a safe range , the result is still a broken leg or even death.

Why jumping low and flying low is more dangerous than jumping high and flying low? It’s because jumping high and flying low always gives you the opportunity to adjust your body’s flying posture in the air.

You can also decide when to open the parachute based on the conditions at the landing site, wind speed, etc. If you jump low and open the parachute, there will be no time to adjust. You must ensure that no mistakes are made in every step, otherwise, you will die or be injured.

What's more dangerous than jumping low and driving low? Of course it was a low jump at night.

Let’s put it this way, jumping high and flying low is ten times more dangerous than jumping high and flying high. Then jumping low and flying low is ten times more dangerous than jumping high and flying low. And at night, the same parachute opening method is more dangerous than during the day. ten times.

It’s not news that people died during that nighttime skydiving training. It’s even less news that people died during nighttime low-jump and low-open skydiving training. It would be news if no one died during that large-scale night-time low-jump and low-open skydiving training. As for injuries, such as spraining a foot, breaking an arm or leg, etc., they are not worth mentioning at all. This is already normal. If there are no injuries, it would be big news.

Ordinary airborne troops do not conduct low-jumping and low-flying training at night, and few troops can withstand that casualty rate.

But the special forces are different. No matter how high the casualty rate is, the training cannot stop. Otherwise, how can they become the most awesome group of people in the world? Is it because they sweat more than others or even It's only made with blood.

Gao Yang and the others actually didn't have to conduct low-jumping and low-opening training at night, but they still participated in all the trainings. They didn't miss a single training session, and they didn't lose a single person. Not even one person sprained their foot.

Especially Tommy, who originally had a serious fear of heights, was dragged out of the plane by the instructor and cried in the air for a long time. When he finally opened his eyes and looked at the ground under his feet, he was fine. It's all gone. His fear of heights was completely gone after a skydive. When he went skydiving later, Tommy was more positive than anyone else. Maybe this is the opposite of everything.

Everyone in the Satan Mercenary Group is indeed very lucky. You must know that among the people Nate led to train this time, there are more than a dozen people who sprained their ankles and need some time to rest. One of them broke his leg. One of them lost his arm, and another unlucky guy actually twisted his neck. Fortunately, although the one who twisted his neck was seriously injured, he didn't die, nor did he become a paraplegic or a vegetative state. However, his service period was already over. That's it. After you've cultivated yourself, it's time to say goodbye to the army.

After learning all the skydiving training, Gao Yang and the others had to leave.

In fact, there are other training subjects, such as flying wing suits. Just like in the movie Transformers, a group of people wear flying wing suits and fly back and forth in the sky. There are also Red Bull Expendables jumping from the top of a mountain or an airplane, and then like The clothes worn when gliding freely like a bird are called wing suits.

The flying wing suit is very useful for conducting air assaults. This training is too dangerous. Gliding with a flying wing suit while carrying combat equipment is completely different from gliding without heavy objects. Therefore, soldiers who are trained in flying wing suits are carefully selected.

If Gao Yang voluntarily participated in the training, he could follow him, but it was basically impossible for Gao Yang and the others to use this method to enter the battlefield. Because it was not necessary, they did not participate in the training at all.

It was already July 24th, and there were only five days left before Gao Yang and the others had to leave. Parachuting training during this period, although it was also very physically demanding, was incomparable to the previous overloaded training. On the same note, this period of time is also a buffer period for Gao Yang and the others to adjust their bodies. Wolfgang not only sent training people, but also sent a medical team to be responsible for everyone's physical repair work.

When it was time to leave, Gao Yang had no reluctance at all. On the contrary, he wanted to leave a deep impression on the airborne instructors who taught him before leaving.

There is no way, although there is already some friendship, training is training, and friendship is friendship. Since the entire Satan mercenary group has been branded with Wolfgang's army, it must be severely attacked as competition. The opponent's 202nd Brigade airborne reconnaissance force.

Although until now, Gao Yang and others don't know the name of the troops commanded by Wolfgang.

It is tradition to start a fight as soon as you meet, but it is just an appetizer. The real meal is yet to come. After all, we are here for training. If you avoid a group of people at the beginning, the training will not be completed. Wouldn't it delay the real business? Therefore, the real feast is at the end of the final training, with a landmark exercise to decide the outcome.

The year before last, a unit under the 202nd Brigade was trained in Gao Yang's base. Finally, they won a street fighting exercise and left. The entire base, from Wolfgang down to the ordinary soldier, was so angry that they almost vomited blood. This year, Nate's biggest task is to lead everyone, including Gao Yang and the others, to defeat the airborne troops in a semi-desert terrain exercise.

Gao Yang sat in the cabin of the plane, carrying an umbrella bag on his back, holding his rifle in his hand, with desert camouflage painted on his face, listening to the buzzing sound of the plane, just waiting for the moment the cabin door opened.

This is Gao Yang's last parachute jump here, and it is also the beginning of the final exercise, a live-fire exercise.

The score of the exercise determines the outcome, but it is impossible to really let the two ace troops shoot each other. Therefore, this dragon-tiger battle has become the most clichéd, but also the most exciting method of exercise. To put it bluntly, it is to seize the red flag. .

Set up a target point, place it anywhere and grab it, and whoever grabs it wins. It's very simple.

A red light in the cabin suddenly turned on, and then there was a beeping sound in the cabin. Nate stood up suddenly and shouted: "Enter the exercise area immediately! Tell me, what is our goal!"

"Kill the reconnaissance battalion! Go home with victory!"

The red light started flashing, and the plane's tail door began to open. Then, the red light turned to green, and Nate yelled, "Get in!"

Nate jumped out first, and everyone followed him and filed out.

Gao Yang also jumped out of the plane. He did not open his umbrella and looked at the people in front of him, falling rapidly in the air.

Seeing that the ground was getting bigger and bigger, and it was already less than 200 meters away from the ground, Gao Yang opened his parachute.

When his feet landed, he rolled high, stood up, and quickly took off the parachute from his body. He quickly packed the parachute in accordance with the drill regulations, observed it, and found Nate's, and immediately moved inward quickly. Special ran.

More than twenty people had gathered around Nate. Nate held a rifle in one hand and raised it to see the time with the other hand. At the same time, he yelled on the intercom, "Get closer to me, quick! Quick!"

The team must be united before they can advance. Otherwise, Gao Yang would have already started running towards the target point.

There is an officer on the ground waiting for Gao Yang to know where the target point is. Nate must gather everyone together before he can get the map and know where the target point is.

Finally, after the last soldier who landed quickly ran to Nate, Nate got the map.

Opening the map, Nate took a look and immediately yelled: "Follow me!" (To be continued...)

ps: Thank you Wangyunshan people, I am happy to have another leader.
