Chapter 726 Altitude Sickness
"Chief Staff Su, are we too cruel to these participating teams?"
Looking at the helicopters flying into the exercise area in the air, Gao Dazhuang couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing, jade cannot be made into a weapon without carving."
Su Qiuyue said calmly.
Hearing his argument, Gao Dazhuang was stunned at first, and then nodded with relief.
"Let's go, Chief of Staff Gao, let's go back and study the competition for the army competition first... They all went to the war zone, there were still two hours left."
Gao Dazhuang whined and quickly followed Su Qiuyue's pace.
...
In the conference room of the Langya Special Forces Brigade, Su Qiuyue, Gao Dazhuang and Long Xiaoyun were discussing the competition event of the Military Region Special Forces Competition a month later.
"According to the news released by the headquarters, this peak military competition will be divided into three categories: common foundation, individual omnipotence, and team tactics, and 5 courses and 31 competition contents."
"I guess there is nothing new to personal all-round projects. It's just obstacles, cross-country running, and precision shooting. No matter how you change it, it's just a change of soup or no medicine..."
Gao Dazhuang nodded in agreement: "Yes, these are key projects in the past special forces competitions, so they must be compared."
Su Qiuyue glanced at the other side and said with a smile: "Xiaoyun, Deputy Minister Lei has confirmed that you are the consultant of our team participating this time. If you have any ideas, I will tell us."
Although the 20 participants have not been finalized, the candidate for the chief and deputy captain has been determined long ago.
Su Qiuyue is the captain and the deputy captain of Gao Dazhuang.
The team's consultant is Long Xiaoyun.
Speaking of which, although Long Xiaoyun, the consultant, will not play a very important role in it.
For example, intelligence collection, training plan listing, logistics support services, etc.
At this time, after listening to Su Qiyue's question, Long Xiaoyun, who was already prepared, explained calmly.
"Although the headquarters has not announced the specific competition, some approximate items can be inferred based on the special competitions within several major military regions before."
"For example, in the personal all-round project, most of the competitions of major military regions covered 6 types of weapon operations. It integrates seven professional categories, including target guidance, obstacle crossing, battlefield rescue, armed swimming, anti-interference memory, and 10 combat skills."
"All special combatants participating in the competition must complete the mission within 90 minutes on complex terrain of 5,000 meters."
After pausing, Long Xiaoyun continued: "Actually, there is nothing magical about these competitions listed separately."
"Even if the requirements for large competitions of conventional troops are higher than those of regular troops, they are limited."
"I personally think what we need to pay attention to the most is its competition location..."
After listening to Long Xiaoyun's explanation, Su Qiuyue nodded.
"Yes, these competitions will also appear in regular troops' competitions. The difference is that conventional troops' competitions will not be held at an altitude of 5,000 meters."
Gao Dazhuang, who was standing beside him, nodding repeatedly and agreed: "Yes, the impact of high altitude on the human body is very great."
"According to my previous experience, many special combatants have very stable training results, but they will fall rapidly after reaching the plateau, and the contrast between the front and back is quite large."
"This is especially true in some tests that assess memory."
"Just like Zhuang Yan from our Group B. He can record the coordinates of all twenty goals under normal conditions. But after training on the plateau, it is difficult to record 10, which is really puzzling..."
Hearing this, Su Qiuyue nodded and said calmly: "This is a normal phenomenon. Acute plateau hypoxia will seriously affect people's thinking ability. Especially in terms of memory effects, it is more obvious."
"The reason is that memory is extremely sensitive to hypoxia. When it is at altitude, people's memory begins to be affected; in the future, as the altitude increases, the degree of hypoxia increases, and different degrees of memory damage will be shown, from the decline of memory to the complete loss of memory ability."
"It's already great that Zhuang Yan can remember half of the coordinate points when he is at an altitude of 5,000 meters."
After hearing Su Qiyue's explanation, Gao Dazhuang immediately realized it.
Long Xiaoyun said in a timely voice: "In addition to memory, altitude also has a great impact on other human functions."
"There are data that at an altitude of about 5,000 meters, the hearing in the high frequency range of a person decreases; the hearing in the medium frequency and low frequency ranges of a person decreases significantly, and the directional force of the hearing will also be significantly affected."
"Of course, the most affected by high altitudes is also the aspect of vision. Data shows that at an altitude above 4,300 meters, vision is significantly damaged at night. And this damage will not be improved by the body's compensatory reaction or lowering of the altitude."
Hearing this, Gao Dazhuang couldn't help but slam his thighs and said, "No wonder when I was training on the plateau, I usually had a few guys with full marks. It was difficult to even score eight or nine points... At that time, I criticized these guys, but it turned out that they were wrongly blamed."
Listening to the dog-headed old man Gao’s self-blame, Su Qiuyue couldn’t help but touch the corners of her mouth.
Long Xiaoyun obviously had a long experience of the occasional whisper of the old leader, and did not show any strange colors at this time.
She pondered for a moment, looked at Su Qiyue, Gao Dazhuang said, "Chief of Staff, old leader, if the headquarters competition is placed on the plateau, then after we selected these 20 people, we may have to go to the third base of the Langya Special Forces Brigade to practice..."
The third base of the Langya Special Forces Brigade is located on the plateau.
When Long Xiaoyun just took over the Wolf Warrior Squadron, he led the team there to practice.
After hearing her reminder, Gao Dazhuang nodded and said, "This is no problem. Plateau training is a kind of training for the soldiers' mental will, physical strength and endurance."
"Even if the final competition at the headquarters was not placed on the plateau, we won't lose money when we go to practice."
"You said yes, July?"
Su Qiuyue nodded with a smile, and didn't say much.
Speaking of which, when he was in the B Military Region, he often led his team to the plateau for training.
Of course, the average altitude of the grasslands of Military Region B is only 1,000 meters.
It is definitely incomparable to some training bases with an altitude of up to two or three thousand meters in the Military Region.
When he came here, Su Qiuyue had not experienced this kind of plateau training.
It's great to take this opportunity to experience it.
The three of them talked about the competition for a while, and Gao Dazhuang couldn't help but lead the topic to the indiscriminate closed exercise that was about to begin.
He coughed and looked at Su Qiyue and said, "Brother July, who do you think the six special forces teams will win in this exercise?"
Su Qiyue had already expected his question.
At this time, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's hard to say. After all, everyone's strength is very close. This kind of competition with too many uncertain factors depends on some luck."
Gao Dazhuang was not satisfied with his answer, so he turned his head and looked at Long Xiaoyun.
"Xiaoyun, you came from the Wolf Teeth Special Warrior Brigade and now you are carrying the Wolf Warrior Squadron. Which of these two teams do you think has a better chance of winning?"
Long Xiaoyun looked at Su Qiyue in embarrassment, but it caused Gao Dazhuang's dissatisfaction.
"Xiaoyun, I just ask casually. Do you have to look at Brother July's expression? I didn't see you so cautiously when I was in the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade before..."
After hearing the dog-headed old man's complaints, Su Qiuyue couldn't help but laugh.
Speaking of which, Su Qiuyue still admires Gao Dazhuang's affinity.
Compared to Yuan Lang, he is actually more tough, but his affinity is not weak at all.
The 026 Logistics Warehouse has such strong combat effectiveness, which is inseparable from the outstanding leadership ability of his first captain.
It is said that when Zhuang Yan was in the regular army, he was also attracted by him at first sight.
In this regard, the tall and strong ability to identify people is not inferior to that of Yuan Lang.
Long Xiaoyun didn't feel embarrassed when he was run over by the old leader.
She cleared her throat and said calmly: "If it were a month ago, I would say that the team of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade is more combat-effective."
"But now the Wolf Warrior Squadron has continuously added Chengcai, Xu Sanduo and several other outstanding team members, many of them have experienced several important battles before, and their abilities are already very close to the Wolf Teeth Special War Brigade..."
Listening to Long Xiaoyun's careful and meticulous analysis, Gao Dazhuang's face gradually became solemn.
He glanced at Long Xiaoyun with a sideways, Gao Dazhuang asked, "So do you think, in terms of strength, are these two teams tied?"
"Well, the strength of the two teams on paper is indeed quite close."
Long Xiaoyun said straight.
"July, do you see this too?"
Gao Dazhuang looked at Su Qiyue again.
Seeing that this person had the intention of digging into the bottom line, Su Qiuyue did not "play Tai Chi" anymore.
He rubbed his chin and said calmly: "In terms of combat effectiveness, both should be at the same level. But to the degree of tacit understanding, the Wolf Warrior Squadron may be one or two ahead."
"After all, there are a few members of the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade who are newly returned to the team. If they cooperate, they may not have such a tacit understanding."
As soon as Su Qiyue said this, Gao Dazhuang immediately realized it.
Needless to say, what Chief of Staff Su must be talking about is the people from 026.
Thinking about it, it is indeed the case.
026 Logistics Warehouse, whether in Group A or Group B, has several undercover agents who have been performing tasks outside before.
For example, Zheng Sanpao, Dabao and others.
Now after returning, they will definitely have a running-in time with the rest of the team members.
In addition to these undercover personnel, Zhuang Yan has just returned to the team shortly after.
Although there are a few newcomers on the Wolf Warrior Squadron.
But they have been working together with everyone for quite some time.
In terms of combat effectiveness, he can already play a role.
In this regard, our own team is indeed inferior to the Wolf Warrior Squadron.
Seeing Gao Dazhuang falling into deep thought, Su Qiuyue smiled and explained.
