(Episode 18)

At 3am? They're doing this on purpose!

29.

Tell us why you are the last to get here.

Report, sir!

I was too tired, I didn't hear it.

Too tired?

Tiredness is not a justification.

Your enemy

won't show you any mercy

just because you're tired.

Before this,

you received conventional training,

because you

were dealing with conventional warfare,

but from now on,

you are going to deal with unconventional warfare.

Since it is unconventional warfare,

there are unconventional approaches and unconventional training.

You used to be axes,

hammers,

but here,

you have to become sharp blades,

sharp knives!

27!

Where are you looking at when I'm talking?

Is 28 that good-looking?

Report, sir!

-We're from the same squad. -So what?

Is that supposed to be cool?

Report, sir! No, sir!

28, did I permit you to talk?

Are you so eager to help your comrade?

In the future training,

you'll form a team of two!

You don't get to pick your own teammate,

it'll be assigned by your instructors!

In all training,

both of you must pass.

If one of you fails,

both of you

will start again from the beginning!

As you can see,

on the other side of the training ground,

there is a farewell platform.

Whoever can't take it anymore and wants to quit,

just put your helmet and number plate there,

and you can go.

Before you leave,

you have to shout

I give up!

You have to let everyone hear it!

Today's training

starts now.

The group with the worst performance,

will be kicked out!

Lu Tu.

Yes, sir.

All of you, right face!

Double march!

(The grouping was planned.)

(Our instructors intentionally put two people who have conflicts)

(and don't see eye to eye together.)

(Xiao Yun Jie was assigned to Bai Long.)

(And I)

(was assigned to Lone Wolf.)

(The first training course,)

(combat training.)

(Requirement,)

(knock out the opponent.)

Come on!

27! 31!

Are you guys doing breathing exercise?

Report, sir!

I don't hit women!

I'm your enemy!

Come on!

That's the spirit!

Keep going!

Die!

You just won't give in, right?

Tap out. Tap out.

Stay put.

Those who are lying down stay on the ground.

Those who are standing continue to stand.

-Your next training course... -Report, sir!

30.

What's your problem?

Before the next course,

I'd like to fight you!

A reserve

isn't in any position to make requests.

This isn't a request!

This is a challenge!

30, you and the instructor know each other?

The others,

did I permit you to move?

Bai Long,

this is the training ground.

-Quit it. -Stay out of this.

Out of my way.

You can say no!

In front of everyone!

I'll fight you!

Consider it a demonstration training.

Yan.

Which one of you won?

We're evenly matched.

Want to go another round?

Why is Bai Long challenging the instructor?

This is his reenlistment.

They probably have a history.

Did I permit you to talk?

Demonstration training.

Lu Tu.

Captain.

Is this fun?

They certainly think this is fun.

What about you?

Honestly,

it's been a long time since I last saw them fight.

I kind of miss this.

Bai Long!

Yes, sir!

Are you tired?

No, sir! Treating training like actual combat is standard!

You two are letting these young soldiers

watch you fighting like you're in actual combat,

do you think this is proper?

Report, sir!

This is a demonstration training!

A veteran

and an instructor

are trying to beat each other to death.

What kind of demonstration is this?

Don't you forget that

there is another form of address between you two,

it's comrade!

I know that

most of you here have never been

in a desperate situation,

never been besieged by enemies,

never experienced war.

At moments like that,

other than your unwavering faith

and determination,

your comrades are the only ones you can rely on!

Your life is yours,

but also each other's!

Next training course,

you shall understand more deeply about

the meaning of the word comrade.

Split into pairs.

One

will carry the other on his back

and run back to Base 125!

-Cao Ben! -Yes, sir!

You love demonstrations, right?

Bai Long will carry you!

Bear this in mind.

Comradeship is forged through

blood and sweat!

I want you to really experience it.

Everyone!

Hop on.

I'll carry you.

Hurry up!

Put me down!

-What are you doing? -There's no way I'll let you carry me.

Can you do this?

Come on.

Hop on.

-Report, sir! -Speak.

Who should I carry?

-You have no one to carry? -Yes, sir.

Come, carry me.

Yes, sir!

Faster.

What's wrong? Are you out of strength?

Come on. Let's sing a song.

♫ Unity is power ♫

Ready, sing.

♫ Unity is power ♫

Hurry up!

Are you okay?

Just stay still!

Stop trying to act tough. Just let me carry you!

That's never going to happen!

Hang on tight!

(This isn't heaven,)

(nor is it hell.)

(This is just a long journey.)

(We have many people travelling together.)

(But once you fall behind, you can't never catch up.)

(I don't want to be left behind.)

(Because at the end of the road, there are my dream)

(and dignity.)

Fall in.

All of you, keep a distance of one meter from the ones around you.

Dress right, dress!

Eyes front!

Get ready to do push-ups.

Go.

Next training course, apex ladder climbing.

Two persons a team.

If one of you falls, your result is considered invalid.

Both of you will have to climb again from the bottom.

The worst-performing team

-will be eliminated! -9.

Yes, sir!

-11. -Yes, sir!

Go!

Yes, sir!

Stop!

Is that the way to climb?

And you called yourselves elite? Get down!

Faster!

-Get back in line! -Yes, sir!

Watch how I do it.

Let me show you.

-Do you know how to climb now? -Yes, sir!

It's easy, right?

Yes, sir!

Okay. Since it's easy,

come on, let's spice it up for them.

Look how dirty you all are.

We've prepared detergent specially for you

so that you can clean yourself up.

28.

Yes, sir!

-30. -Yes, sir!

The rest,

keep doing push-ups.

Why do you split your legs so far apart?

Are you cheating?

This is too slippery. My hands are slipping!

Hurry up!

Since you're in Cheetah,

you'll just have to stick through it.

Whoever thinks he can't take it anymore, just stand up and report to us.

We can eliminate you anytime.

Faster!

You are all elites sent by your units.

An elite should act like an elite.

27!

-Yes, sir! -31!

-Yes, sir! -Go!

Hold on tight, don't fall.

You're the one who might fall.

Give me your hand!

I won't fall.

All of you.

At ease!

Attention!

-Number off! -One. Two, Three. Four. Five.

Six. Seven. Eight. Nine. Ten.

All here.

Captain,

we have 48 participants, they are all in attendance.

-Your orders, sir! -At ease.

Yes, sir!

At ease!

Listen up!

At ease!

Today's training

is neither good nor bad.

It's passable.

-Lu Tu! -Yes, sir!

Give an extra bucket of water

to each dorm tonight.

-Yes, sir! -Report, sir!

Speak!

We haven't eaten anything since morning.

That's why I gave you an extra bucket of water.

When you're hungry,

just drink water.

Got it?

Report, sir!

-Speak! -Our training intensity is so high.

How can we continue without eating?

You should be grateful that we gave you water.

I know that many of you don't understand

what it means to fight a lone battle.

If you don't understand,

ask your comrades who have such experience.

Here, you won't find any love from company commander

or care from squad leader.

Whoever can't stand the hunger,

you can quit anytime.

Does anyone want to quit?

Since no one wants to quit on your own accord,

we will announce it then.

Cao Ben!

Yes, sir!

Who is the worst performer today?

Report, sir!

36 and 41's team.

-36! -Yes, sir!

-41! -Yes, sir!

Step out of line!

This is the end

of the training for the two of you.

Report, sir!

It's not that we're incapable,

we're just too hungry.

Report, sir!

Can we have another chance?

I wish I could.

In war,

your enemy won't give you a second chance.

Everyone has different body constitution.

And it will react differently

in different extreme circumstances.

Go back.

Go back to the post that is more suitable for you.

Cao Ben,

serve them dinner tonight.

-And send them away tomorrow. -Yes, sir.

-36, 41! -Yes, sir!

-Get back to your line! -Yes, sir!

-Lu Tu! -Yes, sir!

Take the team back!

Yes, sir!

All of you.

Right face!

Right turn! Quick march!

One, two, one.

One, two, one.

(Chinese People's Armed Police Force)

Save your strength.

Smashing table consumes energy too.

Even sleeping seems strenuous.

We might as well just stop breathing.

I do want to join Cheetah Commando,

but I need food more.

It's not that easy to join the commando.

Even the soldiers who were fighting

the Japanese back then were given a piece of sweet potato.

You need to learn your history again.

A piece of sweet potato was the most they could get.

I'm fine with sweet potato.

27, 28, say something.

What is there to say?

About not eating?

Well, we all don't get to eat.

It's good, it's fair.

Consider this a diet.

You're just resigning yourself to adversity.

11, don't get agitated.

27, what do you think?

Which unit were you from?

Detachment 181.

What about you, 9?

Detachment 29.

Both are ace units.

What about you two?

We're from

Regiment 247.

I heard that this regiment has been reorganized.

To be precise, it's been reorganized and moved.

We don't even know where our old unit is now.

So,

we have no way back.

It's okay, it's okay.

When you two pass the training,

you will stay here.

Everyone's got their own problems to deal with.

If I can't make the cut this time,

I'm retiring.

Lights off and sleep.

This is killing me.

What's wrong?

Guys,

aren't you afraid to sleep?

Just sleep.

If we don't sleep now, we'll die tomorrow.

We can't be really asleep.

We have to stay alert.

He's right.

If they call for another emergency assembly again,

careful that we might be the next to get eliminated.

I don't care anymore.

I have to sleep now.

I'm going to have a feast of braised pork leg and pork intestine in my dream.

How is the training of

women's squadron going?

It's going as planned.

So far, everything is going great.

That's good.

What about your training team?

How many are gone?

Two at the first day.

At this rate,

in less than a month,

you'll have no one left.

We have requirements.

Weren't you the one who picked them out?

Don't worry.

Guo Xiao Xiao

is doing great.

She is always doing great.

But someone isn't.

On the training ground today,

Bai Long challenged Cao Ben.

Exchange of skills will help them improve.

My bad.

I shouldn't have used the word challenge.

To be precise,

he is resenting.

Some people resent that they can't have what they want.

Some people resent that they can't get rid of what's stuck with them.

Bai Long's emotions

are beyond his control after all.

What does he have to resent about?

Loss.

Captain,

are you talking about Bai Long or me?

You are not participating in the regular training before Hell Week.

Why would I be talking about you?

What is lost is lost.

It's forever gone.

Xiang Fei will live forever in our hearts.

Don't say his name.

But this name is a wound in all of our hearts.

Everyone has the power to heal ourselves.

Wound will eventually become a scar.

People have different self-healing ability.

And wound may get inflamed too.

Three years ago,

after Cobra Operation,

Bai Long was discharged.

But he's back now.

I thought...

I always thought his wound was healed.

Captain, I'm done here.

Goodbye.

Get up! Get up!

What's going on?

Gas!

It's too dangerous. Open the door.

Hurry!

The door is locked!

No.There's too much smoke.

Just opening the window isn't helpful. We're going to suffocate any minute.

Pour water on the towel!

We're out of water!

We drank it all!

Pee!

Come! This way!

Hurry!

27, what took you so long?

How did you get out?

Report, sir!

We broke down the window and jumped out!

That's destruction of public property.

Do you know what's the punishment for that?

There was no other way out.

No other way out?

31, how did you get out?

Report, sir! The key was hidden in the window crevice!

I opened the door and got out!

29, how did you get out?

Report, sir! I found the key in the door crack.

We opened the door and walked out!

Everyone, listen up.

Going through the barracks,

all the way to the end,

the green warehouse is the repair squad.

I want you to fix all your damaged doors and windows.

There isn't enough tools. So I can't guarantee that everyone will get one.

The time now is

5:30am.

Anyone who fails to complete the repairs by 6:30am

will be eliminated.

Go!

Let's go.

Let's wash our hand first.

Let's wash our face.

You guys are exhausted already?

If you think this is too much for you, get out of here then.

Why put up with all these sufferings?

The food truck is here. Come on.

Let's sing a song before we eat.

That's enough. Spare them.

They've been starving since yesterday.

Kitchen Squad Leader!

-Yes, sir! -Tell the guys

what are in the buns.

Beef, carrot, lamb and onion.

What beverages are they having?

Milk and soy milk. You can eat as much as you can.

You heard him.

Bun, milk, soy milk.

You can eat as much as you can.

We won't make things difficult for you this time.

I promise there isn't any trick.

The condition is

you only have three minutes.

Start now!

Give me one.

Easy, easy. Everyone will get one.

-What? -I want a bun.

Bun! Bun!

Don't push. There is enough for everyone.

Goodness. It's so hard to grab some food.

Good job.

You have to stay fierce too when you eat.

Listen up.

You have one minute left.

Here.

What are you looking at? Eat up.

26 and 31 are eating very little.

Something is not right.

Let's be cautious.

That's because they're not hungry. I'm famished. I don't care anymore.

Stop. Fall in!

Not bad.

Given that

you have just finished breakfast,

today's training program

is relatively less arduous.

I can ensure you,

you won't sweat at all.

How is it?

Have you drained out all your energy from your breakfast?

I know that

you guys must be cursing me internally now,

but it's okay.

Like I said,

you make your own choice.

Whoever can't take it anymore, just come up.

How is it?

Anyone wants to be the first?

31,

how are you hanging in there?

Report, sir!

I can do this!

Squadron Leader Leng Jing told us not to be too hard on you.

You're a female soldier.

It's been two hours.

If you can't take it anymore, just come up.

I'm doing fine!

27, why are you shaking?

Keep your balance.

These soldiers around you

are selected from ace units.

If you can't do this anymore, just come up.

You're not like them.

Report, sir!

I'm stronger than them!

Okay then.

Next training course,

you and 31 will give everyone a demonstration.

All of you,

your hands and feet will be tied up.

Two persons a team.

Save yourself in the water.

Your time limit is two minutes.

The worst performer will be eliminated.

Face the pool.

Start the demonstration.

One, two, three.

Go!

Are you ready?

Yes, sir!

Ready.

Come here!

Captain,

he's fine.

17

and 8 exceeded the time limit.

They are eliminated.

Report, sir!

Why?

I got out before the time was up.

Only 17 should be eliminated.

You are a group.

I said save yourself in the water,

but I didn't say you can't save each other.

I told you before,

everyone around you is

your most treasured comrade!

Those who only care about their own interests

and not about the lives of others,

get out of Cheetah!

17,

you're good,

but your physical conditions

may not be suitable for special forces.

I believe

you can do better

in other positions.

(I've gotten used to the reality that we have people leaving everyday.)

(I'm just not used to the helping hand offered by Guo Xiao Xiao.)

(And how she is always so calm irritates me even more.)

(She acts like she's the strong one,)

(like she was born with a reason to help the weak.)

(But I'm never weak.)

(Sentinels Are Sacred And Inviolable)

(Show Your ID, Receive Inspection)

100 meters ahead, sprint.

The slowest group

will be rewarded with 200 push-ups per person.

Team 1, get ready.

Go!

Team 2, get ready.

Go to the back!

What are you doing?

This is fairer to you.

Mind your own business!

Go!
