Chapter 597: Inherited Skills on the Competition Field (Two in One, Please Order)

The manufacturing industry of Baixiang is well-known all over the world, especially their military industry, which has reached a level that is unimaginable to other countries.

For example, their country has three famous land and air defense weapons independently developed.

Arjun tank, Tejas fighter, Atagos howitzer.

These three national defense weapons are all very expensive and take a long time to develop. The slogans and goals of development are loud, but the final result

Take the Arjun tank as an example. It took 30 years to develop and cost 3.5 billion dollars. The final product weighs more than 60 tons and cannot be put on the road.

To go on the road, all roads in Baixiang need to be rebuilt.

And its performance is not limited to this.

In actual combat testing, 120 shells exploded.

When driving on the road, it stalled after 20 kilometers, and the track had to be replaced after 100 kilometers.

It can be said that this product, which cost 3.5 billion and took 30 years to develop, has no advantages at all, but only defects.

And this is not an isolated case. The above-mentioned Tejas fighter jets, as well as all their own self-developed and even foreign-purchased weapons and equipment, can all become like this as long as they get involved.

Based on this, the rafts they built now can be paddled forty or fifty meters on the lake, which is actually quite successful.

"Don't look, listen to my command!"

Wang Ye did not let everyone look at them for too long.

It will capsize, and they don't need to save people.

There are many ships on the lake that are supported by West Point, and they will go to rescue people.

"One! Two! One"

The slogan sounded, and the team of ten people, five on each side, began to paddle in unison with simple oars.

The raft, with the efforts of everyone, quickly sailed away from the shore.

However, Wang Ye and others left the shore.

But now on the shore, the people of Coffee Country, who wanted to seize the time and felt that they were almost done, now shrank their necks and stopped immediately, preparing to seriously reinforce the raft again.

"One, two. One, two!"

On the water, the raft quickly passed by the White Elephant family, who were still struggling in the water.

At this moment, Zach, who had already sat on the West Point rescue raft, looked very unhappy.

But at this moment, Wang Ye didn't even look at him.

A kind of pain of being ignored deeply pierced his heart.

But he was helpless.

The raft was broken apart, and there was no second chance for this single event. They were now equivalent to taking a shortcut, and this event ended early before reaching the finish line.

However, the price of taking a shortcut is to eat a duck egg in this level and get zero points.

"Eighteen points and fifty-one!"

The referee in front of him cut off the timer after Wang Ye and others arrived at the shore and then dragged the raft ashore to the designated location.

There is no way to compare the speed of time now, because Wang Ye and others are the first team to arrive here.

But everyone is very confident in the speed of the people in the Lu Academy.

Comparing physical endurance and willpower, our Flower-Growing Army is the best in the world.

Soon, several more referees came over.

They took photos and recorded videos around everyone.

At the same time, they checked everyone's wetness.

In this environment, the people from Lu Academy were not doing well.

The part of the raft exposed above the water was not much. When there was wind in the lake, a little wave water would pour up.

The key is that when everyone paddles, some water will also come up.

Of course, there are very few points for deductions here, and the basis for deductions is also based on the wetness of the clothes, which has a standard to follow.

In the end, the people from Lu Academy scored 71 points in terms of wetness.

Not high.

But, before the score is calculated, the time must be compared.

In terms of time, the first place will add 30 points, the second place will add 20 points, and the third place will add 10 points.

With this calculation, Wang Ye and others not only got full marks in this level, but also exceeded it by one point.

It is a bit wishful thinking for the other teams to get higher than this score.

Without giving time to rest, the referee announced the next task after the scoring was over.

The command ability challenge is actually to carry shells.

A squad has ten 150mm howitzer shells. The captain is not allowed to use them, but can only command. From now on, the soldiers are not allowed to speak, but can only follow orders.

The specific requirements are that the shells can be moved once before reaching the end point, but they cannot fall to the ground. In addition, there are tools on site.

You can choose two large wooden boxes, two iron rods, and a roll of rope.

In addition, you can use local materials.

The scoring standard is that if a shell falls to the ground, it will be directly counted as zero points. If no shell falls to the ground, the ranking is based on the time it takes to transport to the end point.

"You have three minutes to think. After three minutes, I will start to count the time!"

Looking at the referee in front of him, Wang Ye nodded, and then turned his eyes to one side.

On the other side, everyone looked at Wang Ye and looked over. Some people wanted to speak, but Wang Ye immediately stopped them by raising his hand: "Remember the rules, you are not allowed to speak!"

After that, Wang Ye went to the side to check the tools and the shells.

There is no problem with the tools, and the shells are real.

A 150mm howitzer shell must weigh 50 kilograms.

There were ten people in their team, but he, the captain, couldn't do it, so there were nine people left.

Nine people and ten shells, it would definitely not work for each person to carry one.

Looking at the ropes and steel pipes on the ground, Wang Ye suddenly had an idea.

"Sir, can I cut the rope?" Wang Ye turned his head and asked the referee at West Point.

"Yes!"

After getting permission, Wang Ye didn't hesitate.

He said to everyone: "Come here!"

Immediately, Wanbo and others came over.

They formed a circle, and Wang Ye quickly gave orders according to his own ideas.

After the end, Wang Ye was ready to let people start immediately, but at this time the referee said: "Three minutes have not yet arrived. If you want to act now, then it is assumed that you give up this thinking time and start counting directly now. Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

Wang Ye didn't say any nonsense.

Delaying for two minutes will not make you fat, not to mention that everyone has rested for a few minutes for the scoring check just now, which is enough.

"Well, I'll start counting!"

While speaking, a referee next to him took out a signal gun.

"Bang!"

A gunshot.

"Action!"

Wang Ye gave orders at the same time, and the whole team dispersed instantly.

Five people went directly to the jungle on one side.

The remaining four people went straight to the rope.

A circle of rope was stretched, and after Wang Ye ran over, he ordered to cut it according to the length.

Wang Ye's idea was actually very simple.

Be a shoulder pole

Tie the shells with ropes, and then use the pole made by the other five people to carry them directly.

In this way, one person can carry two shells, and there are four people who can help to stabilize them in the middle, and they can take turns to carry them after a while.

Naturally, the equipment on the person carrying the shells must be taken off first and given to the person who is not carrying the shells.

Two shells weighing 100 kilograms are difficult for ordinary people.

And for the elites of the Lu Academy, it is not easy either.

They are all modern young people, and few of them have really carried a load since they were young.

In military training, even if they occasionally need to carry manure, it is not a common thing to carry manure.

What's more, the two buckets of manure carried by the army are not 100 kilograms.

This weight is definitely a test for everyone's shoulders.

"What are they doing?"

At the lake not far away, the people from West Point came ashore.

Looking at the busy people from the Lu Academy, someone from West Point spoke softly.

"Command ability challenge, see how they do it!" The captain of West Point also reminded his teammates when he watched it himself.

West Point still has some fairness on the surface.

For example, before the mission, their own cadet team at West Point really didn't know what to do next.

But, that's all.

Now when they see the situation over there, they know that the next step is to challenge their command ability.

And, they have actually trained for this project.

However, their training is their training, and the method used by Wang Ye and others now is different from what they used to train.

They use three shells in each wooden box, and then two people carry two wooden boxes forward, and finally two steel pipes are woven into a stretcher with ropes, and the remaining four shells are carried by four people.

This method is very slow, especially for two people carrying wooden boxes, 150 kilograms of shells, plus at least 10 kilograms of wooden boxes, and everyone has 27 kilograms of equipment on them.

With such a heavy weight, even if their West Point cadets are tall and strong with well-developed muscles, they still have difficulty walking.

But, they didn't think of other ways before, and this method is also safe.

Although it's a little slower, it's also a little harder.

But as long as there is no accident, the shell will definitely not fall to the ground.

And now, in their method, the rope that would not be cut, and needed to be used to weave a stretcher, has now been cut by the flower-growing family.

For a moment, they were confused.

The look in the eyes of the West Point students, who were not allowed to do anything but speak, naturally saw it.

He smiled back at them.

Being the first to go on stage is not a good thing, just like being the first to eat crabs, you have to test the poison, but you can easily imitate it after watching it.

But now, Wang Ye welcomes them to imitate.

Carrying a load.

Although the people in the Lu Academy have not practiced it specifically, this thing is considered an ancestral skill of the flower-growing family after all.

But it is hard to say for these foreigners.

Whether they can carry it steadily is an unknown.

Moreover, even if they can hold it steady, can their shoulders bear it?

Yes, the shoulders of the Lu Academy students will definitely hurt later, but can they compare with the fighting will of the flower-growing family soldiers?

If they really had the will to fight, they would not have been beaten to a pulp by our predecessors who ate fried noodles and wore only single clothes in the CX battlefield in the past, in an environment of dozens of degrees below zero.

With a little evil taste in his heart, Wang Ye wanted to see them learn from him and others, and then cry and throw away the burden when the rope was broken.

"Twenty-one points and thirteen!"

Finally, the guys at West Point were busy dragging the raft to the designated place while watching this side.

Wang Ye was fine now, and he heard it when he got closer.

It was more than two points worse than him and others.

And looking at their appearance.

Immediately, Wang Ye was relieved.

Their wet body area seemed to be more than his and others.

Time passed slowly, and in front of Wang Ye, the remaining four people had knocked down the shells, and then tied the shells with the cut ropes.

At the same time, the students at West Point also started this project on the side.

They didn't learn from the Lu Academy in the end.

Because so far, they still don't quite understand how the Lu Academy is going to do it.

They were also worried about imitating the tiger rashly.

So they decided to proceed according to their own training method.

For a moment, their movements were undoubtedly much faster than Lu Yuan's.

After all, the two steel pipes, wooden boxes and ropes are all ready.

As for the boxes, just move the shells in, and it is not difficult to make a stretcher with ropes and steel pipes.

It took them less than two minutes from the beginning to the departure.

This made the people from Luyuan, who started nearly ten minutes earlier than them, look a little dumbfounded, at least the people from Coffee Country who just landed behind them were a little confused.

What's going on?

Why did the flower-growing family arrive so long ago, but now it seems that the flower-growing family is still waiting for something, while the West Point people have already started to leave.

But, just at this time, the five people who had gone into the jungle separately before ran back.

Each person had a thickened wooden stick with grooves cut at both ends and tied with grass in the middle.

To carry heavy objects, you must carry strong wood.

But because there are no felling tools here, everyone can only use daggers and stones to cut trees, so it is very time-consuming.

But now it is finally done.

"Show me!"

Wang Ye went through them one by one.

Worried that the material of the wooden stick is not good.

The material is not good, the density is not enough, the wood will be very light.

If that's the case, it's all over.

When we pick it up later, if it breaks on the way, the shells will not explode when they fall to the ground, but we will get zero points in this level.

Soon, after checking them one by one, Wang Ye nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go!"

No nonsense, Wang Ye gave the order directly.

Immediately, the five people holding wooden sticks went directly to pick up the shells laid out by other comrades, and the remaining four people helped them bring their backpacks and equipment.

In a moment, in the dumbfounded eyes of the people in Coffee Country over there, Lu Yuan only used five people to pick up ten shells.

And just at that time, the West Point leader who was idle in front also looked back.

At this moment, he was obviously a little stunned.

But before he could think too much, everyone in Lu Yuan moved.

It can be clearly seen that the five people in Lu Yuan who picked up the shells all grabbed one end of the rope with both hands, and carried the wooden sticks tied with a bundle of green grass on their shoulders.

It's not like they were walking fast, but the speed was much faster than normal walking, and at least two or three times faster than their slow movements.

"Oh my god!"

On the side, seeing the captain looking behind, a West Point student who was carrying a steel pipe also looked back.

Then, he couldn't help but spit out an "Oh my god".

They didn't expect there was such a way.

But now they couldn't be shocked, they had only started for 10 to 20 meters.

In a blink of an eye, the people from Lu Academy caught up.

Then, in their confused eyes, the people from Lu Academy directly passed by.

"Come on!"

When passing by them, Wang Ye smiled and cheered them up.

Of course, the people from West Point didn't want his encouragement at all.

We are competing!

Your opponent has now surpassed us, what kind of ghost is it for you to cheer us up now?

But no matter what they thought, Wang Ye and the people from Lu Academy were gradually walking farther and farther ahead of them.

Very aggrieved, very helpless, but they were even more helpless.

Having already set out, they could not change their tactics and could only go all the way to the end.

However, they wanted to go all the way to the end, but the people from the coffee country behind them were suddenly surprised.

"Twenty-three minutes and fifty-one seconds, you are really amazing!"

At the finish line, after the West Point referee announced the results of Wang Ye and others, he said this with a complicated look in his eyes.

For this project, when West Point was training, the fastest time was thirty-four minutes.

But now, these flower growers only took twenty-three minutes.

"Sir, are there any more tasks?"

Wang Ye asked with a smile.

"Yes, you can rest for ten minutes now, and ten minutes later, we will do the rope bridge project!"

In fact, Wang Ye also saw that the finish line was the riverside of a mountain forest.

Just in front, there was a river more than ten meters wide.

It was not surprising that the rope bridge project was carried out here.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

Behind, the West Point people had not come yet, and the other teams could not see anyone for the time being, but Wang Ye and others had already started the rope bridge project under the arrangement of the West Point referee.

In this round, West Point did not make any trouble, it was a normal project, and Wang Ye's performance undoubtedly completely disappointed the West Point judges.

The speed of entering the water with a rope and exiting the water was so fast that they thought Wang Ye was not a human, but a seal.

"Fuck!"

In the principal's office of West Point Military Academy, General Mike, who had attended the speech before the game, was now pale and the cigar in his hand was thrown out.

This morning, he did not watch the game with others.

In fact, he did not watch it with everyone yesterday afternoon.

Now in his office, after seeing the result of the rope bridge challenge on the big screen in the office, he really couldn't help it.

He was in a terrible mood.

The first Sandhurst competition since he took office, he thought it was his highlight moment, and he would personally stand on the celebration stage to present the Sun Never Sets Officer Sword to the outstanding students of West Point Military Academy.

But now.

From yesterday to today, especially with the end of the command ability challenge and the rope bridge project, he knew that his highlight was completely annihilated.

Instead, it was replaced by shame.

He will make history in his first Sandhurst competition.

He will break the tradition that West Point cadets always take first place in the Sandhurst competition, and the British Officer's Sword has always been awarded to West Point cadets.

He even remembered the signature he mentioned yesterday morning.

Farke, damn the signature!

His face was livid. If he really gave this signature, it would not be an honor, but his shame. It would be a stain in the life of this great General Mike.

But, it was announced in public.

Uncomfortable!

Seeing the cigar with its wrapper smashed on the ground but still sparking and still smoking, General Mike stepped up and kicked it.

How he wished this was a dream, just like the sparks of this cigar, being stamped out by him.

But the reality is that the cigar was stamped out, but Wang Ye’s smiling face was still there on the big screen.

That leaves the last two projects.

So far, although today's performance rankings have not been released, there are still two other projects that have not yet been carried out.

But Wang Ye is confident that they will get first place.

Because judging from the current situation, if West Point is so far behind me and others in the boat-operating stage, then there must be no hope for others.

In addition to boating, there is also a challenge in commanding ability.

Wang Ye and others rested for ten minutes, and even though the rope bridge project was over, no one from the West Point over there had come over yet.

In addition to these two, Wang Ye is also confident that he will win the first place without having to compete with them in the rope bridge project.

After all, he was the one who personally entered the water to hold the rope at this level. Can they be faster than him?

Sitting on the grass on the shore just after the rope bridge ends.

The morning competition for Wang Ye and others was over.

For the remaining two events, the referee at West Point also said it.

Have to wait until the afternoon.

Now, they can rest where they are.

Finally, another two minutes passed and someone came over.

What's surprising is that the people who came over were not from Western Point.

From coffee country.

They are also considered a dark horse this year.

Won the first place in grenade throwing, other events are not too bad either.

Compared to the Baixiang family, who chirp and sound awesome, their results are much better.

But now, they actually followed the method of Wang Ye and others just now and came here to shoulder the burden.

Across the river, Wang Ye and others didn't know their results for a while.

"Captain, look, the people from West Point are coming!"

At this moment, someone reminded me.

Wang Ye also looked over.

Indeed, on the other side of the river, on the way here, the people from West Point finally showed their faces.

In Wang Ye's eyes, he could clearly see that they were all sweating profusely.

The faces of several black people turned purple.

As for white people, their faces also turned the color of pig liver.

All nine people were in fixed positions, and they couldn't change people to take a rest in the middle. It's strange that it doesn't feel uncomfortable to hold on to such a heavy thing.

"We're finally here. They have forty minutes, right?" Wang Ye said with a smile.

Immediately, Wanbo beside him smiled and said: "Yes!"

“We’re twenty-three, even if we’re about ten minutes ahead of them.

But we just took a ten-minute break, and it was six minutes before the rope bridge project started. Plus, a few more minutes have passed now, and it looks like it will still be a few minutes before they get to the finish line. They may not be able to stop the car in forty minutes! "

West Point is in very bad shape today.

Because of Lu Yuan, their mentality was a bit broken, so they broke down and fell, and their pace was obviously slower on the road.

Time passed slowly. Sitting on the grass, watching the follow-up teams coming one by one, Wang Ye and others watched with great interest.

Among them, Wang Ye and others also knew the situation of some other teams.

Take Coffee Country for example. Their command ability challenge took twenty-nine minutes.

As for their boating project, it was indeed because they saw Bai Xiang's boat capsize that they took a longer time, reaching 30 minutes.

They are considered the most powerful competitors today.

Except for them, the Baixiang family scored zero points for boat handling and zero points for the commanding ability challenge.

After these guys were rescued by the rescue team, they happened to see the Coffee Chinese flower grower set off.

Then they followed suit.

But in the end, it turned out to be a cat. The quality of the sticks chopped by their teammates to carry the burdens was not up to standard, and two of the sticks broke immediately after they took a few steps to pick them up.

When the shells hit the ground, they no longer had to worry about the trip and could just walk over.

It is no exaggeration to say that these guys from the Baixiang family who boast loudly may be able to secure the first place like Lu Yuan this year.

However, it seems that Lu Yuan's stable number one is the real number one.

And they are the last one.
