　　Right after the New Year's Day, an armored brigade stationed at the Central Plains took its troops in full strength to a strange area with complex terrain conditions to conduct drills covering all aspects of the trainings. In the trainings it set very realistic combat scenarios and dangerous situations to enable its troops to master the comprehensive combat skills through rigorous training, including "marching, fighting, eating, living, hiding and defending and protecting." The picture shows the officers and men of the brigade on a field march.
