Early the next morning, Lin Yi called everyone up, finished breakfast, put on their equipment, and a group of eleven people started to set off.
In fact, Lin Yi did not want to lead the two comrades in the propaganda unit at the beginning. It was not convenient for them to walk with the camera on their shoulders.
However, division and regiment leaders have patrolled, which is a great incentive for young officers. It is also the bottom line. It must be publicized. This is basically a political task, and it will not work without it.
At the beginning, Lin Yi suggested that the two comrades from the publicity unit should stay at the outpost. They could just hold the camera themselves. They were just filming things. As long as they knew how to press the power button, it wouldn't be too difficult.
As a result, as soon as he said this, he was directly rejected by Commander Li, "You can do it without me, but the comrades from the propaganda department must be with you. This is a political task, and you don't want the political commissar to criticize you later.
Besides, taking pictures also requires professional skills. Who doesn’t have a mobile phone and doesn’t know how to take pictures? But some people’s pictures are just incomprehensible, and some people’s pictures are beautiful.
If you don’t believe it, take out your mobile phone now and let everyone take pictures of the scenery outside. I can guarantee that even with the same mobile phone and the same scenery, the effects taken by different people will be completely different."
This was true, and Lin Yi knew very well that there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't deal with the matter, so he had to turn around and ask Xue Peng to keep an eye on them, and strictly stipulated that filming could only be done on specified road sections.
This is not for the sake of confidentiality. We are all soldiers. The video is also used for internal communication and publicity within the army, so there will be no leakage of secrets.
The reason for the strict requirements is for safety reasons. Some places are flat areas along the way, and the publicity staff can take pictures from various angles, even if you run 180 meters away to take pictures.
But in some places, as long as there is a stagger of two or three meters, there is endless danger. If you say something inappropriate, it will really be a misstep that will lead to eternal regrets.
Of course, the propaganda personnel absolutely obeyed. Even Deputy Commander Chen had to obey Lin Yi during the patrol. As a lieutenant himself, how could he not be qualified to disobey.
Besides, Captain Li is still here, so he can't leave an impression on the leader of disobeying orders. If the leader remembers this bad impression, it will be difficult to get it back later.
The group set off quickly, but as the wind picked up, Deputy Commander Chen suddenly felt his face was numb from the cold. The last time he patrolled the border was when he was serving in the border defense regiment. In the blink of an eye,
Seven or eight years have passed, and the environment seems to have become worse.
When Lin Yi felt the wind blowing, he felt relaxed. Wind was not a bad thing. The wind could strengthen the hardness of the snow. The higher the hardness of the snow, the safer it would be for everyone to walk.
It's just that walking against the wind consumes more physical energy, but patrolling is very physically demanding. At most, this can only be regarded as a little more difficult. Anyway, Lin Yi doesn't care. He can do it. For him, the wind
It won't have much impact.
Because everyone was extremely obedient, and Deputy Commander Chen and Captain Li were physically stronger than Lin Yi had imagined, they did not encounter much difficulty when walking. But the only thing that worried Lin Yi was the two
a publicist.
As soon as they waited until Xue Peng could say that he was looking for an angle to shoot, they immediately ran back and forth to find an angle. Lin Yi estimated that there were two reasons. The first was because the material was good, and they valued their jobs, so they were so active.
initiative.
The second reason is that 80% of the time is to interview propaganda leaders, so you must perform well.
But Lin Yi knows that patrolling is a very physical thing. They can hold on by following the team, but once they leave the team and actively run forward and backward, it will be a huge challenge to their physical fitness.
They were exhausted, and from the sound of their heavy breathing before and after running, Lin Yi could feel that their lungs could no longer bear it.
Lin commented on the complaint and stopped two publicity staff, "We can cooperate with you in filming. If you let us go, we will go again. Your body will not be able to withstand the shooting before and after."
The publicity personnel quickly refused, "How can we ask the leaders to listen to our command? Besides, no matter how good the staged photo is, it is not as real as the actual photo. We can resist, so just lead the team away."
Lin Yi is only responsible for their safety and cannot direct their filming operations. Since they are willing to suffer, it is okay to let them endure hardship, or let them know that patrolling the border is not a walk. This does not have enough physical strength and
Perseverance cannot persist at all.
Sure enough, just as Lin expected, after only half an hour of walking, the physical fitness of the publicity staff could no longer keep up. Even if they kept breathing oxygen, their lungs would soon be unable to bear it.
Lin Yi originally didn't want to rest, but seeing this situation, he had no choice but to stop. We are a whole, and as long as we go out, we must always be considerate of each other.
This is just like an organic company's five-kilometer cross-country run. When an organic company runs five kilometers in a row, they don't count the time you placed first in the run, but the time you placed last.
Even if 99% of your company can perform well, if only one of your companies can pass, then your company's result will only be just passing.
So when it comes to this assessment, you will often find that a soldier with good physical fitness will carry three, four or five guns on his body, and there are even soldiers with good physical fitness who will use backpack straps to drag soldiers with poor physical fitness.
This is also very effective in actual combat, because everyone's physical fitness is different. During the march, if we do not exercise everyone's sense of unity, it will be easy to disrupt the organization once we march.
If we fight a war, wouldn't we just be stragglers?
Lin Yi also emphasized unity during the patrol. Without unity, people cannot survive in the harsh environment of nature. No matter how strong your physical fitness is, how long can you withstand a snowstorm if you are nestled at the entrance of a cave? Half an hour will still be enough.
One hour.
And you have a companion, even if your companion is physically weak, he can help you carry it for fifteen minutes. Isn't it your life-saving time for fifteen minutes, so unity is particularly important here.
When Lin Yi saw that the publicity staff was almost unbearable, he stopped and shouted to the team: "Rest on the spot for fifteen minutes. Those who are weak can take oxygen, but don't become dependent on oxygen, otherwise you will be behind."
The journey will be unbearable."
As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, the two publicity staff fell to the ground. This appearance shocked Lin Yi, and he immediately went over to check the situation.
When he saw that the publicity staff's faces were almost turning purple from holding back, he immediately took out their small oxygen tanks to give them oxygen. But when he just picked it up, he found that the tanks were empty. This frightened Lin Yi.
