Chapter 287 The sky fell at the beginning!!!
There are not many teams selected for the International Special Forces Competition, as the main consideration is the tactical and forward-looking nature of the subject, and the venue required is better rather than bigger.

Therefore, the competition venue was chosen to be a teaching team of the military region, which is equipped with all kinds of training facilities and equipment.

The contestants who are able to come here to participate in the selection are all masters who have emerged from the special forces of various military regions. They are definitely the pride of the army.

Therefore, every player is a bit rebellious and has a strong desire for victory.

They are also very smart people.

In order to gain more advantages, the players are observing each other and coming up with corresponding targeted methods by obtaining each other's data.

Chen Jun and his team were the last team to arrive, and nine teams had already gathered here before them.

They are the Southwest Military Region, Northwest Military Region, Central East China Region, Northeast Military Region, North China Military Region, Southeast Military Region, the special forces of the Navy and Air Force, and the special operations forces of the armed police.

(PS, for some reasons that everyone understands, the military region has made certain adjustments, and sometimes it may be replaced by the war zone)

With the information kept completely confidential, everyone only knew which military region the other person was from, but had no idea of ​​which specific unit they were from.

The information released to the public by Chen Jun and others was only marked as the Capital Military Region's participating team.

But they did not mention that they were from the 7th Steel Battalion.

When Chen Jun and his team arrived to report, they immediately attracted the attention of the other nine participating teams.

It's not just that the title of the Capital Military Region is big enough, but mainly because everyone in the army comes from special operations forces and knows a lot of secrets that the outside world doesn't know.

Everyone understands that the mysterious special operations forces of the Capital Military Region are the pioneers of our military's special operations technology.

It is equivalent to the "holy land" in the novel!!

As participating teams from the lower sects, each of them came with a desire for victory and naturally regarded the representatives of the Holy Land as their biggest competitors.

The team led by Chen Jun became the veritable "public enemy".

The people in the Seventh Steel Battalion could clearly feel everyone's emotions from their gazes, which was an extremely strong desire for challenge.

As soon as I arrived, everyone treated me as a "target". To be honest, the pressure was quite high.

If he had not been taken to the southwest region before and witnessed the experience of life and death on the battlefield, both his vision and character would have been greatly improved.

Chengcai and Xu Sanduo and others who have just served as special forces may really be under a lot of pressure.

As for now...

Not to mention special warfare veterans like Qi Huan, even the "newcomers" like Xu Sanduo and Chengcai did not feel any pressure from the provocative gazes of the crowd.

Everyone has a strong belief in their hearts and the same determination as other contestants to never give up.

Yuan Lang brought all the participating teams to the dormitory, and after completing the corresponding procedures with the competition organizers, he left alone according to the competition rules.

The competition selection process is kept confidential and all information will not be disclosed to the public.

Naturally, there will be no one other than the audience and contestants.

Apart from the contestants, the only people who can stay here are the staff responsible for organizing the competition. The results will be announced to various units after the competition.

"I hope we'll see each other in a month, not a week. I'll be waiting in the team to hear your good news."

Yuan Lang left with some very personal words of encouragement and left with expectations for everyone.

The morale of the eight contestants, from Chen Jun, the team leader, to every other contestant, is at full steam at this moment.

I'm determined to get a spot in the competition.

……

the next day.

8 o'clock in the morning.

The international special forces competition selection has officially begun. Ten special operations teams from various military commands and arms are competing on the same stage for the only spot to fight for the country.

Directly below the rostrum, the playground has a row of ten signs from left to right.

There is one meter between each sign, and the name of each participating team is written on it. Each team just needs to line up behind it according to the order.

"One, two, one, two, one, stand still."

As each participating team shouted slogans and lined up behind their corresponding signs, the atmosphere of the competition became more intense.

There is a sense of "storm is coming" before the battle!
The higher-ups attach great importance to this competition.

The lineup of the accompanying person in charge was very "luxurious".

"At ease, stand at attention~"

"Report to the leader..."

An officer personally came on the field to organize the team, saluted towards the rostrum and reported the personnel situation, and the opening ceremony entered the core link.

The old leader from the Military Commission personally gave a speech to all the contestants present.

"Today was originally an ordinary day, but now it has become a special day, because from this moment on, we will step out of the country and go to the world to contribute to the world's fight against terrorism.

You are all pioneers from various military regions, and you have the ability and strength to accept this important task and shoulder the country’s expectations of you…”

After the old leader finished his morale-boosting words, he immediately moved on to the content related to the competition.

"This competition will last for five days and nights, and all competition venues and event settings will be as close to the battlefield environment as possible, and all subjects will have a tactical background.

The significance is not just for the competition, but also focuses on the practical needs of future anti-terrorism special operations..."

The old chief obviously understood special operations, and what he said was very insightful. He not only explained the rules of the game, but also the significance of the game to reality.

To sum it up in a few simple words...

We hope that by using competition as a means of replacing war with competition, and by competing with outstanding special forces from abroad, the level of domestic special operations can be raised to a higher level.

After speaking eloquently for a few minutes, the old leader's speech entered its final stage.

"I believe that you are all the best soldiers, so I hope that you can all show your strongest strength and let me witness a peak showdown of the highest special warfare level in the entire army in the latest actual combat.

Now, I declare that the Chinese People's Liberation Army's first international special forces competition, the quota selection competition, has now officially begun."

With the old leader's official start, the smokeless war began to spread.

The players' fighting spirit has been ignited, and there is a blazing flame of victory in everyone's eyes, and they are all determined to win this battle.

The opening ceremony ended with the leader’s speech, and the formal competition process began next.

The first step is to announce the rules of the competition.

This competition adopts a team points accumulation system.

That is, points can be obtained in each event, some are team points, and some are individual points. No matter how the competition points are obtained, they will be accumulated in the team.

After all the competitions are over, the team with the highest points will get the chance to compete abroad.

Where there are rewards, there are punishments.

If a player cheats in a competition or uses unfair means to win, he or she will be punished by deducting points according to the severity of the offense.

In order to better organize the points and competition system, the participating teams will be numbered uniformly.

The leading officers of each team stepped out from left to right to draw the lottery, randomly drawing the numbers belonging to each team. Chen Jun, representing the Capital Military Region, strode forward and drew a very auspicious and familiar number -

six!
Team number six represents good luck.

Chengcai and other team members standing in the team were very satisfied with this number.

After each participating team completed the draw, everyone was taken to the competition preparation area to begin preparing for the first competition subject.

The tournament organizer, who had been waiting here for a long time, announced the tournament rules to all participating teams.

The first game has two parts, which are connected to each other. Only after completing the first part can the second part be carried out.

The first part is to carry a weight of 12 kilograms and complete a 3-kilometer cross-country run within minutes.

The second part is that when the contestant crosses the finish line, the timing will start immediately. The contestant needs to complete the gun calibration and accurately hit six targets within two minutes, and no less than three tactical shooting actions are required.

One point will be added for completing each part on time, and a maximum of two points can be added for a single person.

If you fail the first stage of running, you won’t even have a chance to shoot.

Zero points!
Theoretically, each team can get up to sixteen points.

Those who come to participate in the competition are the best among the best soldiers, and they are definitely the top-notch warriors selected from thousands of people. It seems easy for them to challenge the first game.

All ten teams participating in the competition thought so, and believed that they would win this game easily.

Even Chen Jun thought so!

But the result was a heavy blow.

For the special forces present here, even the one with the worst physical fitness can easily finish the three-kilometer race in nine minutes with bare hands.

I've run fully armed cross-country before, and twelve minutes is more than enough.

Even carrying a weight of 60 kilograms is not a problem for us.

However, when all ten teams put on their equipment and ran along the prescribed race route carrying 60 kilograms of weight, the contestants were quickly overwhelmed.

The contestants were so enthusiastic and full of morale that they could run very fast even with a 60-kilogram weight at the beginning.

As if there is no weight at all!

But after running about one kilometer, a steep slope of more than 45 degrees suddenly appeared, and the length was at least more than 200 meters.

It is uncomfortable enough to walk up such a slope with bare hands, let alone carrying a full 60 kilograms of weight.

The contestants who had just been rushing forward seemed to have all been given a super slowdown debuff when they reached the slope, and they ran slower and slower.

In less than fifty meters, almost no one could run anymore, and everyone could only walk up wearing a mask of pain.

Looking at the 80 runners from the ten teams, only two of them were able to run on this extremely steep slope.

The weight-bearing king Battelle and the “protagonist halo” Xu Sanduo.

Thanks to his super acid-resistant physique, Chen Jun was still able to alternate between walking and running.

There is a huge difference in speed between walking and running. It only takes about twenty seconds to run up a steep slope of one hundred meters, but it takes at least one minute to walk up it.

The difference of one steep slope is half a minute, and the accumulated difference of three or five steep slopes is disastrous.

Don’t think you can make up for time by running downhill. The heavy load will result in a huge potential energy. You dare not run too fast downhill, and you may even have to run at a lower speed.

Otherwise, if you can't stop the car when going downhill, you will fall and inevitably roll over.

If the injury is minor, the player will be forced to withdraw from the competition.

That would be a waste of time!
The route for this race has been carefully selected, and it happens to have many steep slopes, with five of them being over 100 meters in length.

It takes half a minute to run up one slope, and nearly two minutes to run down five slopes.

It is equivalent to running three kilometers fully armed in ten minutes.

It takes nine minutes to run three kilometers without any help. Now I have to carry a load of sixty kilograms and finish it within ten minutes.

This is almost impossible!

As a result, in the first event of the competition, out of the 80 top soldiers from various special forces, only six returned on time.

The number of contestants who completed the second stage was further reduced to two.

They are Chen Jun and Xu Sanduo!
The other four contestants, including Battelle, failed to complete the required three tactical actions and six target tasks in the next two minutes of shooting.

It's equivalent to saying.

After the first event, only two people got full marks, four people got one point, and the other seventy-four people all got zero points.

Chen Jun and Xu Sanduo were able to get full marks by risking their lives.

After finishing the second round of target shooting, both of them were completely exhausted. They lay on the ground and didn't want to move at all. All they could do was breathe heavily.

Battelle is the most regrettable.

In the second round of shooting, he was a little slow in calibrating his gun, and the two minutes were too tight, so he didn't have time to fire one shot.

In the end, I only hit five targets and unfortunately lost one point because I missed one target.

Bater was so angry that he pounded the ground, but there was nothing he could do.

The rules of the game are there!
For other contestants who could only get zero points, Battelle at least had the chance to shoot, but they could only listen to the gunshots with sadness in their hearts.

Carrying with them the expectations of their respective soldiers and leaders, they traveled thousands of miles to participate in the competition, but ended up getting zero points in the first event.

Even six out of the ten teams were completely wiped out and didn't get any points.

This achievement...

This was indeed a heavy blow to these soldiers who were extremely confident in themselves and vowed to win the championship.

The organizers of the event gave the contestants a warning at the beginning, making them feel the "malice" of this competition and forcing them to behave themselves.

All the arrogance is gone!
After the first game, we took a half-hour break to review the game.

"It's so damn embarrassing to get zero points in the first game. If I get this news back to my old unit, my comrades will definitely laugh their heads off."

Tuo Yonggang was very upset and blamed himself. He hated himself for not working hard enough in training and wanted to slap himself twice.

"The difficulty of this game is too outrageous. I have never heard of such exaggerated game rules. It's simply going to kill people." Wu Zhe was very depressed.

"It's normal that the difficulty is so high. Don't forget, we are fighting against the special forces elites from all over the world. How can we defeat them if we are not strong enough? It's okay to get zero points here. It's embarrassing only at home. If we can only get zero points abroad, it will be a real shame."

Seeing that the team's morale was low, Chen Jun, as the captain, had to stand up and boost morale.

He clenched his right fist and stretched out his hand, saying, "Come on, brothers. We have already gained a small advantage in the first battle. Next, everyone should show their strength. Those who don't perform well should work harder. We must give him this spot."

Five out of eight contestants scored zero points. The morale is indeed a bit low at the moment and needs to be boosted urgently.

Chen Jun's influence in the Seventh Steel Battalion is absolute. After he said these few short words, everyone's eyes changed.

“We must take it down!!”

Everyone spoke in unison, boosting the low morale.
