Full of "war flavor"
With a crisp whistle, the military sports meeting kicked off in the ammunition handling competition. Putting on bulletproof vests , putting on bullet bags, and picking up automatic rifles , the fully armed contestants made the ammunition handling project more full of war flavor.
Solang Tenzin, a Tibetan soldier from the police service company, is tall and strong, and ammunition handling has always been his strength. I saw him slowing down while adjusting the position of the ammunition box, crossing the line, turning around and sprinting again. His movements were smooth and smooth, and he finally completed the race in 25 seconds 52, and the crowd cheered. Unexpectedly, the referee gave an unexpected result. "If you don't wear the equipment according to the standards, your results will be invalid!" The officers and soldiers watching the competition felt sorry for him.
From being the favorite to win the championship to having his results cancelled, Solang Tenzin’s face was full of loss and regret, but his eyes revealed a sense of perseverance: “In a real war, if you want to win, you must follow the standards. Wear equipment. Although I failed to stand on the podium this time, I will definitely win the championship back next year. "
In the grenade throwing competition, officers and soldiers must not only throw far, but also accurately. Corporal Ye Pengcheng of the police company who appeared in the finale turned around, kicked on the ground, and exerted force, and the grenade hit the ground far away. "62.6 meters, out of bounds, the score is invalid!"
It turns out that in order to simulate the real battlefield environment, the grenade throwing has delineated the target boundary, and the grenade must be thrown within the specified area to be considered a valid score. With one last chance left, Ye Pengcheng took a deep breath, kicked the ground suddenly, then quickly waved his arms while steadying his center of gravity. "63.1 meters, the score is valid, ranking first!" As the referee announced, cheers rang out again.
Excellent in all aspects
Sergeant Miao Yudong of the Command and Support Team has very excellent professional skills. He was once the champion of the cable connection event. At this Military Sports Games, he won the 3000-meter running championship. He is known as "Physical Fitness and Skills" double champion.
A few years ago, he was slender and his performance in military training was not outstanding. He was eliminated in the military skills competition because his physical performance did not meet the standards. Since last year, the brigade has organized targeted intensive training in military sports, from which he has benefited a lot. With the help of the brigade's military sports training guidance group, Miao Yudong started with strength training and increased muscle strength through bench presses, squats, and abdominal muscle wheels. At the same time, he also focused on cardiopulmonary function training , strengthened long-distance running and sprint running training, and gradually improved his military training results.
Nowadays, as the military sports training craze continues to set off in the brigade, people like Miao Yudong who are "strong in physical fitness and skills" continue to emerge.
Clenched fingers into fists
Future wars will not be fought alone, but against systems. Similarly, the combat effectiveness of a unit is also reflected in joint cooperation.
In the tug-of-war competition , which is the most strenuous and embodies the strength of the team, the 10 "strong men" from the automobile company seemed to be twisted into a rope. When the whistle sounded, the center of gravity of the 10 people quickly sank and the rhythm of their efforts was consistent. It crossed the red line in less than 10 seconds, and the win was a clean one.
In the 4×600 meter relay race, Private Li Xiangdong, who ran the first leg of a certain team, was a national second-level athlete before joining the army. He gradually opened up the distance from his opponents from the start, and took the lead when he arrived at the handover area. Second place was nearly 40 meters.However, he and his second teammate Li Huafeng made a mistake when handing over the baton. The baton fell to the ground and the lead was lost. There was a flaw in the unity and cooperation, and the "combat effectiveness" plummeted. After the game, they mentioned in their summary that although everyone usually pays attention to personal running speed training, there is little cooperation and insufficient tacit understanding, which is why mistakes occur in the game.
"You sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in wartime." The leader of the brigade said: "It is impossible to fight as a soldier without a strong body. No matter how far military science and technology develop, military physical fitness will always be an important factor in forming combat effectiveness." Military sports games are an important way and carrier to focus on military training and preparation for war. They are designed to exercise the physical fitness of officers and soldiers, stimulate courage, cultivate fighting spirit, and lay a solid ideological and physical foundation for cultivating early warning soldiers who can win wars."
To further improve the entire brigade. Regarding the level of military sports training, this year the brigade formulated the "Plateau Military Sports Training Method" based on the characteristics of the plateau environment, breaking the inertial training thinking of "practicing the movements for whatever subjects are tested", introducing professional systematic training methods, and adopting class-based training. In the form of teaching and promotion of scientific training methods. The training department of the brigade has formulated the "Guidelines for the Organization and Implementation Methods of Military Sports Training under Plateau Conditions" to adapt measures to local conditions and people to ensure diverse training methods, sufficient training intensity, scientific recovery time, and ensure the effectiveness, safety, and fun of military sports training. sex and sustainability.
