The first lunch was a happy hour.

After nearly three months of sea training, it was never that easy again.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the team reunited on time and entered the venue on time.

The so-called entry means to go to the beach.

Although the beach here is not as fine-grained, slightly yellow, and coarse-grained as the beach near the reconnaissance camp, the advantage is that the beach is long enough and stretches along the coastline. The sea surface of Beibu Gulf appears from a distance. A strange sight showing the boundary between yellow and blue.

That's a strange sight caused by the difference in salt content in the water near the sea and when it enters the sea.

The sea breeze was no longer cool, it was as hot as the hot air from a hair dryer.

"It's all there!"

Miao Lian stood in front of the queue, looked left and right, and gave the order: "Everyone take off their shoes, take off their shirts, go shirtless, fold their hats, belts, and shirts in front of themselves!"

The squad leader began to urge everyone to carry out the order.

A strange scene appeared on the beach.

Looking from a distance, on a long beach, thousands of marines were taking off their clothes, then folding them and placing them on the beach in front of them.

"sit down!"

The entire company of soldiers sat on the beach.

At first, Li Zheng didn't feel much about this kind of anti-exposure training. After all, he had performed peacekeeping missions in Africa. How powerful could this kind of sun exposure be?

But as soon as his butt sat on the sand, he immediately frowned.

After a morning of being scorched by the sun, the sand was now scalding hot. Sitting on it, even through the camouflage pants, it still felt a bit like sitting on an overheated stove.

Hou Jun next to him seemed to have the same feeling and bared his teeth involuntarily.

What is sourness?

This is called sourness!

Fatty Wei, who was behind Li Zheng, whispered: "Be patient, and you won't feel uncomfortable after covering up the cold."

“They say you practice in the winter and practice in the summer!”

Miao even took off his upper body and paced back and forth on the beach in front of everyone with a stopwatch.

"Old comrades all know that sea training is nothing new, but our new recruits here are participating in this kind of training for the first time. Don't be afraid, this kind of training will not kill you. Over the years, generations of us marines have been Coming here like this, it was very uncomfortable at first, but it became a pleasure when you basked in the sun.”

enjoy.

A smile appeared on Li Zheng's lips.

Miao Lian is quite interesting. He has a loud voice and a sense of arrogance. Occasionally, he will start a sentence with a national curse or something like that. But just by listening to him speak, you can tell that he is a straightforward man with no hidden sins. around.

"The temperature is just right now..."

he asked the officer on duty.

"How many times?"

The officer on duty looked at the thermometer and replied: "38 degrees."

"Isn't it the hottest time yet?" Miao Lian seemed as if the sun and temperature weren't enough to make people happy. He looked at the sky with disdain and said, "The hottest time hasn't arrived yet. Tell us what's going on here." Recruits, the temperature can be over 40 degrees at the hottest time, and the surface temperature is even three to four degrees higher, so today you are participating in sea training for the first time and you have such good weather. You are so lucky to be able to reach your toes! "

Hou Jun whispered to Li Zheng: "This Miao Lian of ours is from Tianjin, right?"

"Ah?" Li Zheng was puzzled.

Hou Jun said: "Cross talk."

Li Zheng smiled.

"The tasks of our Marine Corps are all-round, and most of the time we perform tasks on islands, coasts, and tropical and subtropical areas. Therefore, our team is required to have a very strong adaptability to high-temperature environments, so this high temperature every year Resistance training is a required training subject. It’s not like you look at the veterans in front of you and look at the layers of skin on their backs. They all took off at least three layers of skin. Only then can you be qualified to say that you are a Marine!"

Listening to Miao Lian walking back and forth while talking, Li Zheng was soon sweating profusely, and the sweat was dripping down like tap water on his head.

It feels like wearing a thick body armor while performing missions outdoors during peacekeeping operations in Africa.

That kind of sweat is stuffy, and this kind of sweat is directly exposed to the sun, as if being squeezed hard by the invisible hand of high temperature, trying to squeeze out the last drop of moisture in the body.

For the first hour, Li Zheng felt nothing.

But by the second hour, the temperature in the body began to rise. It felt like being in a dry steam room. The air exhaled from the nostrils was warm, and the skin on the back began to feel a little spicy. .

Thanks to him being a veteran, he didn't feel any signs of dizziness yet.

When your body temperature rises to a certain level, if your tolerance is insufficient, you will feel dizzy, as if you have a low fever, feel nauseous, and feel like vomiting. This is a precursor to heat stroke.

"Great! One hour and forty minutes!"

Miao Lian never left. He occasionally sat at the front of the row, and occasionally stood up to look around.

"Today's results are good. In previous years, recruits would faint at this time, but not this year. It would be best if no one in our company faints at the end of today's training. Then I will..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Zheng suddenly heard a muffled sound coming from his right side.

puff--

It seemed like something had fallen over.

Miao Lian quickly swallowed the words in his mouth and rushed over to help the fainted soldier.

"Hygienist!"

While shouting, he and the cadre on duty carried the unconscious recruit to the shade under a tree next to the beach.

"Hygienist!"

He shouted again.

The hygienist rushed over and saw him quickly taking off the recruit's camouflage trousers, pouring water from a plastic jar onto a towel and starting to wipe his whole body.

After wiping, he turned around and ran to the tent to get a refrigerator, took out the ice pack and applied it to the recruit's forehead.

"Company Commander, we have to send him to the medical support team. He can't stay here anymore. He probably needs an infusion."

Miao Lian looked at the unconscious recruit, waved his hand and said, "Then send him over quickly!"

The health worker quickly called for the vehicle of the medical security team. After all, this kind of training is carried out all year round, and a complete security system has been in place for a long time. Fainting is a common phenomenon, most of which are caused by heat stroke.

Heatstroke can be a big or small problem. In the case of heat stroke, it can be recovered by lying down and cooling down. In the case of heat stroke, it can lead to heat exhaustion and even death.

The medical support team arrived quickly and sent the recruits away on stretchers.

Miao Lian returned to the team again. He laughed at himself: "Look, I can't praise people. If I do, something will happen..."

Then he looked at his watch again.

"There are still more than two hours. Please hold on. I will tell you a good way. Slowly close your eyes and imagine that you are bathing in the sun on the famous Yalong Bay beach. The sea breeze is gentle and the waves are sound. Zhen, you are drinking ice-cold juice..."

Not to mention, Miao Lian's words made Li Zheng feel like he was being hypnotized. I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but the skin on his back was really not as uncomfortable as before.

Over the next hour, another recruit fell in the company.

After Miao Lian finished processing, he came back and said: "Last year, three fainted. This year, if we don't exceed this number, we will make progress! It is victory! Everyone, hold on, don't fall down, there are only one hour and fifteen minutes left. ! It’s almost four o’clock now, and it won’t be so hot at dusk! Persistence is victory..."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a gust of sea breeze blowing behind him.

Huh?

It's actually very refreshing.

He couldn't help but look back towards the distance of the sea.

A large dark cloud had gathered in the distance and turned into a thick black mass, seeming to be heading here.

"It's hairy!"

Miao even cursed.
