The parachute floated slowly, Lin Rui tried to maintain correct breathing, relied on his ears to analyze the airflow, and then adjusted various parts of the body to keep the body in a balanced state. First-class skydivers must know how to control their main parachute according to the airflow conditions, maintain an open parachute posture, and control their main parachute according to the airflow. They must also understand the proper timing of the main parachute cutting and auxiliary parachutes.

Military skydiving is different from civilian and recreational skydiving. The most prominent feature is that military skydiving requires skydivers to land as fast as possible to avoid attacks and ambushes from the land, and to gain enough reaction time for themselves. And the landing speed must take into account the ability of the human body to withstand the impact, because a small injury may cause the soldier to lose combat effectiveness, and even affect the completion of other comrades and the entire combat mission.

Therefore, in the military parachute landing, we must rely on a special landing posture to ensure that no damage occurs during high-speed landing impact. Since the emergence of military parachuting, airborne troops of various countries have imposed very strict requirements on the landing posture of parachuting. In most countries in the world, the rollover parachuting landing posture is generally adopted.

However, unlike most countries, China and some countries in the former Soviet Union used a semi-squat parachuting landing posture. The semi-squatting parachuting landing posture requires the lower limbs to be in a semi-squatting posture when not landing, achieving "three tight and one flat", that is, bending the legs, clamping the knees, ankles, and the inner sides of the forefoot, and the soles of the feet are parallel to the ground.

Its main feature is to actively bend the joints of the lower limbs after the initial contact, and reduce the impact overload and prevent potential damage by extending the buffer time and increasing the buffer distance.

The "three tightness" is to ensure that both legs can bear the impact at the same time to avoid damage caused by separate load. This requirement is consistent with the improvement of the rollover landing method made by the United States based on the investigation in June 1943. It is believed to be helpful Keep muscles in good condition and reduce damage.

"One leveling" is to ensure that there is a maximum contact area between the human body and the ground from beginning to end, which is similar to the requirements in Australia's rollover landing.

Internationally, it is generally believed that the impact overload on each segment of the body when landing with a rollover posture is much smaller than that when using a half-squat landing. When using the roll-over landing, each segment of the lower limbs and their joints are in rotational motion.

This kind of exercise is beneficial to change the strain energy stored in elastic materials such as muscles and ligaments, enhances its ability to absorb impact energy, exerts a greater buffering effect, and reduces the impact overload of each segment. Therefore, from the perspective of reducing the impact overload on the body's center of mass, feet, and various segments, the roll-over style is better than the half-squat style when parachuting and landing. However, some studies have pointed out that the half-squat style is better than the roll style.

The so-called novices are afraid of getting out of the cabin and veterans are afraid of landing. This is a famous saying about parachuting. The correct landing posture is very important. In fact, many paratroopers in various countries will break their legs due to a momentary negligence. Lin Rui's landing posture is a standard semi-squat landing, fast and swift, but with a little more impact.

After landing, he quickly unhooked the parachute, raised the gun to check the surrounding situation, and then looked at the assembly point marked on the gps locator. He did not deviate far, but a few of the team members landed farther. . While receiving information from the team members through the communication headset, he quickly rushed to the assembly location.

"It's safe nearby. We are rushing to the meeting point." Sergey's voice replied in the headset.

"Very good, how are the others?" Lin Rui continued to ask.

"No problem, I am rushing to the meeting point with the Chief and Sausage, Captain." Biscuit replied.

"Okay, see you at the meeting point." Lin Rui hurried to the meeting point. Jiang An and Yelena have arrived, and he shrugged, "You are faster than me."

"I was a member of the Skydiving Club when I was seventeen. As for Yelena, she was once a professional athlete in Russia." Jiang An shrugged, "Not everything, you can lead us."

Lin Rui shook his head, "Contact Cobain. Ask him when our assistance will arrive."

Jiang An nodded and contacted the Communications Officer of the Technical Department with the headset, Kebain, "Hey, Kebain, we have arrived at the scheduled location. Yes, half an hour earlier than expected, so when will our assistance arrive? ?"

Cobain’s voice was a little helpless, "Sorry brother, our informant in Syria is obviously unreliable. He should have been driving the truck to pick you up at this time, but half an hour ago, he lost contact and I can’t notify. To him."

"Half an hour ago? What are you kidding? This is a secret mission. What if this informant is arrested, did you not inform us until now?" Jiang An frowned.

"Don't worry, he can't betray you, because before the last juncture, I did not give him your landing location. I'm sorry, but our control in the Middle East is not as good as in Africa." Cobain said helplessly, "Yes. Not many people have won to do things for us."

"But what should we do now? Are you going to let us walk through this desert on foot?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Don't be like Rick, it's just something unexpected happened, and I'm working hard to remedy it. Twenty minutes, you will give me another twenty minutes, and I will arrange another car to pick you up." Cobain felt helpless.

"Well, let's do this first. You continue to arrange manpower and vehicles. However, we can't wait here for long. The parachute landing just now is obvious and will attract the attention of nearby armed personnel. These Syrian militias have many factions and we don't need to follow They clashed and caused other troubles later. So we have to avoid here." Lin Rui whispered, "I need you to make a route for us. To the nearest town, we need to get some news from there, or watch See if you can get a car."

"Okay Rick, I'm really sorry." Cobain sighed.

Lin Rui didn't say much, although he was not satisfied, but he also knew that Cobain did his best. The Black Island Company's control in the Middle East is indeed limited. At present, the foreign aid they can obtain is mainly from other companies of the International Mercenary Alliance. The quality of these mercenary companies varies from good to bad, and the information they provide is even more so. Not reliable anymore.

If something went wrong, Kobain couldn't help it. He is a technician who is far away from the headquarters on St. Cathar Island, what better way can he do? So to solve this problem, they still need to rely on themselves.

Lin Rui turned to look at the brothers, and whispered, "Are there all the people? We are now having a problem. The vehicle can no longer arrive, but we have to evacuate quickly. Therefore, we can only give up hiding some equipment and try our best. Go lightly."
