The military training began, with Crazy Horse House's team leading a team of fifty people, and Lin Rui's fifty people leading a second team. l.

The training of the first team was carried out in a lively and lively atmosphere, and the Colombian soldiers sweated in the training ground at the back of the valley. Whether it's a variety of regular training, or targeted tactics. The gang did work hard, and the soldiers trained hard.

But the corresponding second team seems to be silent. Lin Rui and the others and a group of wounded soldiers of the O2 team were basking in the sun on the training ground, lazily bragging and farting. Sergei and a few mercenaries gathered together to gamble in broad daylight, and the smell of alcohol on their bodies could get people drunk.

These people don't look like they're a little trained. They didn't have to train at all, because Jason and Lincoln had already pulled the training team into the mountains. No supplies, no equipment. God knows what kind of training they're doing.

Crazy Horse frowned slightly after learning about this situation, and he felt a little strange about the training method of Lin Rui and the others. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he frowned at Snakeeye and said, "Maybe we're underestimating this group of O2 people." ”

"What do you mean," Snakeeye frowned.

"They took the troops out for training, without supplies or equipment, and it was obvious that they were training jungle tactics, and it was a field survival mode. This is the best way to quickly adapt to jungle warfare. Crazy Horse whispered. "They knew that a month was too tight, and instead of spending a lot of time on physical fitness and regular training, it was better to take the troops directly into the mountains. They adapt quickly in a field environment. to exercise the teamwork of the troops and the essentials of jungle guerrilla. ”

"Isn't that a little too aggressive," Marcus, who is in charge of the first team's training, frowned. "Even if we can't follow the rules, we can't completely abandon these basic trainings."

"Now it seems that they are indeed like that. Crazy Horse said slowly, "We were careless, we didn't think of that at the beginning. After a lot of high-intensity physical training, the soldiers are sure to have a period of recovery. And we don't have enough time. Perhaps at the end of the month, our soldiers will have to drag their heavy and tired bodies to deal with the situation.

And they, as for it, seem to have given up physical training and other regular training, but they take their troops to drill in the ravines all day long. Relying on local ingredients to obtain food and water strengthens the team's spirit of collaboration. Interspersed with various jungle tactical training, in fact, the physical fitness of the soldiers has been exercised. There's no need to focus on training. ”

"That's right, marching in the mountains and jungles is a very exhausting thing. There is really no need to strengthen the physical fitness. Snake-Eyes nodded. "This Lin Rui is really cunning. ”

"yes, he's not a fuel-efficient lamp. The two Americans who led the team were also clearly masters of jungle warfare. That's why he was so fearless, lying on the training ground and basking in the sun. Marcus sneered. "But I don't think it's going to make you really good at it. The best way to conduct military training is to train scientifically and systematically. Their unconventional approach is not worth advocating. ”

"But they are the easiest way to produce dangerous jungle warfare specialists. Snake Eyes said slowly.

"Snakeeye is right. Crazy Horse said in a deep voice, "In the history of human warfare, jungle warfare has always been a headache for both warring sides, and it is a challenge for both personnel and equipment. The technical combat superiority of infantry in other combat environments is often greatly diminished in jungle or forest environments.

And the most important factor that determines victory or defeat is geography, that is, whether the fighter is absolutely familiar with the local environment. A warrior should be particularly familiar with the local topography, vegetation, climate and biology, because these factors will become obstacles to his battle, and will also become his helper in battle. They just want to use that to win. ”

Crazy Horse is a true jungle warfare expert, and his analysis of the problem is very good.

The greatest combat value of the jungle is that it provides unparalleled concealment.

For example, during the Kosovo War in 1999, the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia managed to hide a large number of troops in forests and jungle areas to avoid NATO's aerial reconnaissance and attacks. According to NATO's assessment at that time, if ground troops were to be sent to occupy the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, it would probably suffer huge losses in jungle operations. It was on the basis of this consideration that NATO did not carry out a ground invasion of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia in the end.

Throughout the Cold War, NATO forces continued to focus on operations in the northern forests of Europe. Even today, Western military experts insist that jungle warfare is inevitable in the event of a future war in Europe.

Judging from the density of personnel in wartime, even a small forest or forest with an area of only 2 square kilometers can hide a certain number of military personnel, and a jungle of 5 square kilometers can hide a certain number of military personnel.

Many people take it for granted that there are almost no ordinary civilians living in the jungle, especially in the primeval forest, so it is difficult for troops to stay in the jungle without the support of the population for long periods of time. This idea may have some validity for the boreal forests of Northern Europe, but this is not necessarily the case in tropical and subtropical jungle areas.

In developing countries in the tropics, there are a large number of civilians living in the jungle, such as local residents or farmers, farmers, and lumberjacks. Thanks to the inhabitants of the jungle and the good concealment of the jungle itself, rebel armed groups guerrillas and other armed groups with low levels of equipment are able to survive and fight well.

In the case of guerrilla warfare, the jungle itself can provide part of the physical property due to the prolific nature of the rainforest. However, the most advanced weapons and equipment of the present time may not achieve the desired effect in the jungle, and it is not easy to completely eradicate the guerrillas and militants in the jungle. This is also the reason why Colombian guerrillas have been able to haunt the southern mountains despite their attacks.

The reason why Jason and Lincoln trained was to turn this regular Colombian army into a guerrilla force in the jungle in a short period of time.

If the two teams were to win in this jungle environment, the second team, who knew the woods and the terrain well, would be able to beat the first team that had been training hard in the camp.

This is the essence of guerrilla warfare, and if one makes full use of the favorable terrain with which one is familiar, it is not impossible to win more with less, or even with the weak. In fact, countless similar examples can be found in military history.

The most classic is the Vietnam War, which once made the US military lose face. More than 5. 80,000 people were killed, more than 300,000 were injured, and the Vietnam War, which cost more than $400 billion, is a scar in the hearts of a generation of beauties. During this war, the Vietnamese militia, who were familiar with the terrain, repeatedly beat the well-equipped American soldiers to the ground in the jungle.

"Starting tomorrow, we will also pull the troops into the mountains for training. "Crazy Horse is the driver.
