“You guys talk.” Li Jinnian stood up to leave, “If you have anything to ask, ask Big Shark first. If he can’t answer, then you can ask me.”
He had never chatted with female soldiers before; he was not familiar with this, so he felt it was more appropriate to hand it over to the Lieutenant of the team.
Ye Jian stood up, saluted, and watched the highest-ranking major in the team leave. Her slender figure stood up straight like a lighthouse; even if the hull shook with the waves, it couldn’t shake her.
After four hours of sailing, Ye Jian did not ask about sea combat and close combat. Instead, she asked about the training cycle of a frogman.
It was a good question. Big Shark, who felt that she had too little training time, replied earnestly: “The members of the Storm Commando had undergone about four months of elimination and selection training. The remaining members who passed the selection trials are not allowed to perform any task immediately. After 18 months of basic training and professional training, the 6 months of mission deployment is only getting started. To participate in the first underwater mission, a soldier would require about 12 months of advanced training.”
In other words, it takes about three years to develop excellent frogman.
Ye Jian was in awe!
“Successfully completing the first mission does not mean that the frogman will be outstanding in the future. As a frogman, we still need to continue to learn and strengthen new skills. We must always keep ourselves at our peak state so that we can fight and win battles!”
“We, Storm Commando, are our country’s first Amphibious Frogman Commando, and we are also the only one that does not belong to the jurisdiction of each military region. We are a separate special force.”
“The troop was established not long ago; there is too much to learn. Take the recent Southeast Asian countries, each member of the 126th Assault Concord’s elite frogman can be “silent” for more than 20 hours underwater. We are not as good as them.”
“Because of our late establishment, we need more rigorous training. A strong country has no weak soldiers, and only a strong army can make a country strong!”
Only when a country’s military strength and the strength of its soldiers increase can it have the capital to stand tall in the world!
Ye Jian did not ask about sea combat and close combat. Instead, she asked about the frogmen’s training and got a deeper understanding of the team.
Then she learned about the other frogman troops in Western countries and the gap between her country and other countries.
This, in Ye Jian’s opinion, was a valuable harvest. It also allowed her to understand that even if she had undergone “hell” training, she would only learn the surface. If she wanted to learn more, she would need at least two more years to become an excellent frogman.
If possible, she would like to study with the frogman troops every winter and summer vacation.
At 11 p.m, Ye Jian, who had just woken up after a nap, saw a lighthouse that was giving directions to the ships. They had arrived at the port.
She alighted from the ship, stepped on the thick concrete floor, and looked at the bright light. Ye Jian, who had been with the sea for more than a month, smiled.
The feeling when her feet stepped on the ground,… felt very solid.
Ye Jian did not immediately return to the camp. She wanted to call Uncle Gen to see how he was doing. With the consent from Li Jinnian, a navy on duty led her to the phone booth.
At 12 a.m, Principal Chen received a call from Ye Jian.
“We rest assured that it was Captain Xia that sent you there. Everything is as usual at home. Little girl, don’t worry about us.” Upon receiving a call from Ye Jian, Principal Chen was immediately wide awake; he answered her questions after another in a sensual manner, “Old Gen is doing well. He’s old, so it’s normal for his body to have a little problem. Don’t worry, I’m here with him.”
