The extreme point is when a body feels most uncomfortable during long-term exercise. At this time, the heartbeat will speed up, breathing will become rapid, and the muscles will feel the weakest.

The earlier the extreme is reached, the worse the situation will be when the body has not adapted to exercise at this time.

Zhou Zhi took all of this into consideration, allowing everyone to fully warm up before setting off, adjusting their breathing during the process, and trying to delay the arrival of the peak.

If this point occurs when exercising uphill, many people will be unable to withstand the torture and be forced to stop.

But when going downhill, the human body will be pushed by potential energy, which is equivalent to getting a lot of rest, and the situation will be much better.

During the ten days of military training, Zhou Zhi had almost developed his own "little authority". Everyone found that following him would always make them more comfortable and make progress much faster.

So everyone stopped talking and moved on.

Sure enough, halfway through the descent, the extreme point began to appear, but there seemed to be an extra hand pushing behind everyone, and they couldn't stop even if they wanted to.

After a few more minutes, the slope was finished, and everyone's discomfort was over. Our legs and feet started to feel strong again, and we were able to run much more easily than before.

It went up and down in this way, Zhou Zhi always controlled the change of speed, neither fast nor slow but maintained a consistent moving rhythm. Everyone gradually discovered that this was actually not slow.

At 12 noon, after traveling for two and a half hours, they arrived at the highest point of the training - Pine Bay.

Half of the journey has been completed here, but the remaining half is downhill rather than uphill, so the speed will be much faster than the first half.

A jeep parked here. Li Yong and Zhang Tao stood beside the jeep. When they saw the team approaching, their eyes showed some surprise.

The cannon fodder class actually brought all the girls class up, and they all ran up. Although two girls were pulled by armed belts, they still ran up!

And they were still singing!

"Report to the instructor! Report to the company commander! All members of the fourth squadron of the first company and the first squadron of the second company have arrived at Pine Bay. Please give instructions!"

"Have a rest, there's still half a way to go, what should you do?"

"Reporting to the instructor, which team are we to arrive?"

"Your ranking is... just average! Why don't you also take a walk?"

"Thank you, instructor!"

Not getting the answer, Zhou Zhi had no choice but to take the team to the edge to rest, seize the time to drink water and eat something.

Zhou Zhi threw away all the steamed buns distributed by the army when setting off in the morning and replaced them with Shaqima for everyone.

Shaqima itself evolved from the food of hunters. It is rich in sugar, starch, and fat. It is most suitable for those who do strenuous exercise in the afternoon and cannot eat too much.

However, the sauerkraut in the cafeteria was quite good in adding salt, so Zhou Zhi kept it.

With Jianlibao shaken to remove bubbles, a short marching meal was finished quickly.

With such a small amount of time, he allowed everyone to stretch and eliminate lactic acid together, then said goodbye to Li Yong and Zhang Tao, and headed towards the ultimate goal down the mountain, Wufeng Creek at Tuojiang Old Wharf.

"These guys are very organized." When Zhou Zhi and the others were gone, Zhang Tao laughed and said, "Your method is very good. You match up men and women, and you can slow them down in one go."

"Elbow, when we came here, many teams chose to climb directly up the mountain to take advantage of the bends. Will we fall behind? How about we also try the smaller roads?"

The distance set for this training session is twenty kilometers, but that is the distance covered by the car on the road. There is actually another option for training, which is to abandon the road and go off-road.

"The distance will be much shorter that way," Zhou Zhi said, "but the physical requirements will be greatly increased. Boys can generally grit their teeth, but girls are a little hung up."

"The instructor's requirement is that all members arrive. If you are not familiar with the road conditions in cross-country and there are too many invisible factors, I estimate that we should be at least above the middle rank now and will not be too far behind."

"According to the way Boss and the others run, I guess there will definitely be girls carrying them on their backs in the end. If you don't believe it, just wait and see." Zhou Zhi said, "Didn't we suffer enough in the training? The instructor and the company commander only focus on one.

It’s not trustworthy, and it definitely doesn’t have good intentions when it keeps encouraging everyone to take the wrong path.”

"I think Zhou Zhi is right." Liu Cunbao said: "It is easier to go up the mountain than to go down the mountain. If you walk down the mountain on a small path when you are tired, your knees and thighs will be even more unbearable."

"It's not necessary." Zhou Zhi said: "Anyway, at the current speed, we should be able to reach Wufengxi, Lu Qiao, and Lu Jiayi before six o'clock. Can we maintain this speed?"

"Yes!" The two girls being dragged along by armed belts gritted their teeth and nodded.

In fact, the most difficult time has passed, and all that is left is to reasonably allocate the remaining energy, not to rush, not to rush, and reach the finish line according to the plan.

In the last two kilometers, the two classes even had some energy left to accelerate slightly. When Zhou Zhi and the others reached the finish line, they looked at their watches and saw that they had reached the finish line in just over an hour.

In the second half of the journey, they almost all went down the mountain. When they visually inspected the places they could cross on the slope, they did not follow the road completely rigidly, and the speed was much faster. Overall, it was a 20-kilometer mountain road training, and they also carried such a

Carrying a lot of weight, the whole process took more than three hours and 40 minutes to complete.

Just when Zhou Zhi was very satisfied with the speed, Li Dongping suddenly said: "Why is there no one here? Did we arrive too late?"

"Impossible!" Zhou Zhi's first reaction was this, and then he asked around: "It's impossible... right?"

"Is the place wrong?" Zhao Xing asked around, then pointed out: "No problem! The finish flag is over there!"

"The instructor and the company commander are here." Wei Zhijiang looked behind him and saw that the little jeep was driving over. He quickly shouted: "Get in the team, get in the team, hurry up, hurry up!"

When the car arrived in front of the red flag, the two squads had already lined up. Wei Zhijiang turned around, saluted, stood at attention, and shouted loudly: "Report to the instructor! Report to the company commander! All members of the fourth squad of the first company and the first squad of the second company have arrived at the finish line. Please

instruct!"

"Take a break!" Li Yong showed a smile that was rare during the entire military training: "Students from Class 1 and Class 4, do you want to know your results?"

Everyone looked in disbelief, how did they feel after hearing these words...

"think!"

"Congratulations, you are the first two classes to reach the finish line!"

"Yes!" Whether it was Lu Jiayi and Lu Qiao who were so tired that they felt like they were about to die, or the lively and cheerful Li Yijia, or the reserved and calm Tong Xiaolin, they all cheered together with the cannon fodder squad, and jumped up holding hands and touching each other.

"Quick, quick, hide, hide!" The prankster's heart started beating again after only two weeks: "Let's hide and see what the next team does!"
Chapter completed!
