"One, two, three, row hard! Come on! Chen Yuxue shouted.

"Come on!" Not far away, two boats were also roaring hoarsely.

A group of 12 people, everyone is rowing. (There is one more student from Zhangzhou in the Manila student class, and there are enough 36 people, claiming to be the 36-day gang class)

Rowing is a physical competition for the individual and an honor for the collective, so it is very powerful, and small rowing competitions are often held during training.

The result is often that Chen Yuxue's group is much better, and she throws it over with a sentence: "Are you men?" Worse than me! "The kid in the group screamed and stimulated a huge potential to win.

I have to say that the morale bonus ability of girls, especially beautiful girls, is really terrible......

always loses, and the other two groups lose helplessly, holding their breath.

Finally, when it came to learning sail driving, it was to watch the wind and eat, talk about cooperation, and there should be a chance to turn the tables.

The training begins with familiarization with the sailboat, and the cadet class first familiarizes himself with the structure of the dhow, and the dhow used by them has a mainmast and only two sails, the mainsail and the foresail.

The first time the sailboat went to sea, the cadet class performed quite well, they understood the wind direction, the concept of changing the side very well, and did not get seasick, worthy of the children of maritime merchants.

They all had a good sense of balance, the wind and waves rocked the small sailboat, no one was uncomfortable, no one was seasick, and they were quickly adapted to the previous supply ship and rowing.

The study of sail operation is very critical, in fact, there are two main aspects on the sail warship, one is to operate the ship, the other is to fight, and the combat is mainly to shoot and shoot, in fact, the key is to operate the ship, to know how to use the sail, to grab the upper hand, to use the wind to propel the ship, if you can't do it, even the sea can not sail, and how to sail to fight the enemy.

The training of officers is different from that of sailors, who have undergone three months of basic skills training until the corresponding subjects are trained on the battleship, while the officers must independently master all the processes of maneuvering the sailboat, and be able to use the wind direction to drive the ship out and back the ship.

Start with a small sailboat, first of all, you need to wind the rope, know how to tie knots, and learn to raise the sails, these basic movements need to be practiced over and over again.

When the sail is raised, the gestures are very particular, can not pay attention to brute force, maneuvering the sailboat is the sport of the wise, there are a lot of skills in it, how to operate the labor-saving time, how to see the wind direction, how to grab the wind, very particular, sometimes, the sturdy young men in the cadet class have empty strength, but often can not make it, anxious as if there is something scratching in the heart.

Downwind to the broadside, windward to the broadside, the main sail and the foresail to change the lifting, to deal with the changes of various sail styles in different wind directions, each action must be repeated constantly, to achieve the purpose of multi-skill, and finally form a "conditioned reflex", the operation skills have been greatly improved.

This term was spoken by the instructor, who said that it was taught by the Overseers, and that only after the training of "Moon, Moon, Water, Fire, Wood, Gold, and Gold" could one become a qualified naval officer.

The training was very hard, the trainees were tanned in a bronzed wheat color, peeling was a common thing, and sometimes they were even sunburned, and their skin became red and swollen.

During training, it is inevitable that the limbs will be scratched and bruised. Everyone's legs were blue, red, yellow, and purple, colorful, and there were blood marks on their bodies from time to time. But no one complained, no one complained.

Because they learned to understand that they can only grow up through experience, they learned to persevere, in their own battle position, according to the instructions of the instructor over and over again, they learned to cooperate, everyone worked hard to do their job and move the boat.

Everyone knows that one less person, one less strength, the speed will be slow, and now it will lose to other ships, and in the battle with the enemy, it may die!

Everyone supports each other, comforts each other, encourages each other, and the sense of collective honor comes out like this...... The four major irons in life, the brothers who have been soldiers together and sat in the same boat, have formed a deep comradeship, which will accompany them for life.

The trainees are worthy of the elite selected by Manila, the training intensity is very high, they still complete the training of various subjects well, on the ship, everyone is alive and vigorous.

……

Even if Chen Yuxue is talented, she almost couldn't persevere when she encountered such high-intensity training at first.

The sun was fierce, and she was dressed tightly, but at the end of the day, her skin was "pickled" with salt, and her whole body was extremely itchy!

Fortunately, the military doctors of the army have studied this kind of injury, and they have to take pills after each training, and when they return to the base, they drink bitter decoctions.

When it's time to come to the Great Aunt, the training can't stop!

The preferential treatment she received was that she didn't have to go into the water, and the discomfort of her body made her extremely uncomfortable, which made her suffer more than the others.

Fortunately, the military doctor of the army had dealt with a similar situation of the female Marine Corps before, prescribed her medicine, prescribed the medicine according to the order, and conditioned her body, so that she could cope with it.

No matter how capable she is, she is not as good as the male students after all, and she is only in the middle and lower in the comprehensive test, which makes the others who were trampled under her feet happily: "You also have today!" ”

"Really?" Chen Yuxue sneered.

……

By the time of the rest of the reading classes, the thirty-five boys in the class would understand what it means to be a female scholar!

The exam schedule is getting tighter and tighter, and everyone is studying angrily, but when they see the senior girl in the class reading miscellaneous books indiscriminately, and it seems that they don't focus on the subject, they have bursts of despair in their hearts.

Just flip through the books, and you're ready!

When the instructor asked her, she replied fluently, saying that she would memorize everything after watching it a few times!

A female crushes the crowd, and then sees her brother Chen Yuzhen studying pitifully and hard, and the students ask him again if he and Chen Yuxue should not be the same ancestor?!

Chen Yuzhen, who was embarrassed and angry, said angrily: "Isn't it that you haven't been beaten by her recently, and your skin is itchy!" ”

……

During the final exam, Chen Yuxue was the first in the three courses of navigation, command and gunnery, and made a fuss about the first in the class, and Second Lieutenant Chen Ran shouted: "The school thinks that Chen Yuxue's gunscience exam paper is first-class, and if she can give the correct answer to the detailed process of artillery shooting, she is the only one in the class!" ”

What's even more outrageous is that although this senior sister is in the middle and lower ranks in the comprehensive division of sailing training, when sailing, she is especially able to grasp the wind direction and command her sailboat to grab the wind with a very high success rate!

Being able to grab the wind and outperform other sailing ships is not difficult to win.

and then fired on the battleship, and her gun crew was in the forefront of attack speed and accuracy.

In other words, she was born to eat the bowl of rice "commanded"!

In the end, she became the first in the second lieutenant exam in the class, and then the first female officer in the class to get the captain's qualification certificate, and completed all the subjects with excellent results!

Less than twenty years old, that is, command a cruiser and shine in future naval battles!

Her success shows that Yan Changwu's words "women can hold up half the sky" is right, and since then, more women have embarked on combat positions and liberated more productive forces, which is a later story.
