Two years ago, Li Zheng transferred from the infantry to become a special forces. Soon after he arrived, a 100-day "hunter training" made him remember it vividly.

In the first five-kilometer cross-country assessment, not long after Li Zhenggang set off, he was left far behind by his comrades-in-arms, and his unsmooth breathing and thighs that he couldn't open made him the "crane tail" of the whole company. With a strong sense of self-esteem, he secretly made up his mind: "When you come here, you have to make a difference!" He asked the company's physical fitness instructor for advice and made a special training plan for himself.

▲ Tactical training

It seems to be the most ordinary and strange, but it is easy but hard. While others ran 5 kilometers lightly, Li Zheng ran 8 kilometers with arms, and did not forget to carry 2 sandbags. In the scorching summer season, the scorching sun makes the stones hot, and Li Zheng can often be seen fully armed, with sandbags tied to his body and legs, running back and forth on the rugged mountain road, sweating every time. The hard work paid off, and in the military sports meeting not long after, he worked hard and won the second place in the armed five-kilometer cross-country with a score of 18 minutes and 30 seconds.

▲ Downhill training

In Li Zheng's view, special forces cannot have shortcomings in any subject. After each climbing training, he would repeatedly practice, sometimes a dozen times in a row, the skin on his hands fell off layer after layer, the blood blisters broke and scabbed, and then broke and scabbed again.

▲ Assassination training

This year is the second time he has participated in a big competition organized by the Army, this time he has become an ambulance man, and he has learned from scratch again.

"After every training session, my hands are always shaking and I can't hold the dishes and chopsticks. Li Zheng said that during that time, I was repeatedly thinking about the essentials of action when I ate and slept.

▲ Obstacle course training

In the competition, the organizers demanded a march of 340 kilometers in 120 hours. From marching at night, scouting in makeup, to answering behind enemy lines, to traversing the jungle. Carrying a 30-kilogram backpack, the jungle was hot and humid, overgrown with weeds and thorns, making every step very difficult.

While walking through the jungle, the voice of the examiner suddenly came from the loudspeaker and pierced the calm air: Heavy firearm hand has a broken lower leg, please treat it immediately. As an ambulance, Li Zheng, under the cover of his comrades-in-arms, evacuated the wounded to a safe place, judged the injury, stopped bleeding and disinfected, bandaged and fixed, and transferred and evacuated......

Time passed little by little, Li Zheng suddenly felt in a trance, everything around him became slow, the tip of the examiner's pen sliding on the paper, the tightly locked brow of his comrade-in-arms when he was on guard, and the dense sweat oozing from his forehead slid down the tip of his nose...... "Report!" It took less than three minutes to deal with it.

▲ Climbing training

When passing through the low-pile barbed wire fence before the finish line, Li Zheng rushed towards the finish line like a tiger out of the cage...... In the end, his team won the silver medal and won this precious honor. At the commendation meeting, he sincerely sighed: "Growth is not afraid of setbacks, and success lies in perseverance." ”
