At 12 noon on July 2, 1933, a shout came from the door of the living room, "Education has arrived!" With the sound of neat footsteps, General Zhang Zhizhong, the chief of education of the Central Army Military Academy, walked into the meeting room accompanied by a group of people, and the five people in the meeting room immediately stood up and saluted! General Zhang Zhizhong returned the salute. Then he looked at the five outstanding students who were standing straight and said,

"The exchange and study of students in Germany is another new starting point for you, and it is also the most important and critical moment for you. I hope that the students will be happy, safe and healthy on their new journey of study and life. A few requests were made. The first is to learn to respect each other, respect, courtesy, and cooperation with teachers and classmates, so that you can better complete your studies. The second is to learn to be self-reliant, do your own things well, and try not to cause trouble to others. We must have self-confidence, believe in ourselves, be self-reliant, and enhance our ability to think, analyze and solve problems independently through practical exercises. The third is to abide by the law and pay attention to safety. It is necessary to study and understand the laws of Germany, respect folk customs, and be cautious in making friends and making friends. The fourth is to take learning as the main business, cherish learning opportunities, take school and society as a classroom, and broaden your horizons. Always be grateful, win glory for your parents, hometown, alma mater, and the nation and motherland. Live up to the cultivation of the party-state. I won't say much about the rest of the people you will go to Shanghai accompanied by the officials of the unified leadership of the national government, and I hope you will keep in mind the purpose of going abroad for exchanges. ”

After General Zhang Zhizhong finished speaking, He Jianye and the five of them took a car to Nanjing Railway Station under the arrangement of the instructor, and at the railway station they met more than 20 active-duty officers who had gone to Germany for exchange and study and took a train to Shanghai together. After nearly 12 hours of running, the train stopped at Shanghai Railway Station at 3 o'clock in the morning on July 3, and under the arrangement of officials, everyone stayed in a hotel arranged by the government. It wasn't until 6 o'clock the next morning that He Jianye got up and practiced breathing on the balcony outside the room, and the officers and classmates in Shanghai went back to the hotel to rest at night, and at 12 noon on July 3, after lunch, amid the yawns of most of the people, everyone boarded the merchant ship bound for Germany under the organization of the officials.

With the sound of the whistle, the merchant fleet left the port of Shanghai and slowly sailed towards the open sea, where a fleet of about 20 ocean-going merchant ships set sail after joining other merchant ships in the open sea. After the freshness at the beginning, He Jianye, like most people, fell into a situation of emptiness and irritability, but He Jianye is different from everyone in that many people in the same company are either chatting with foreign girls or a few people getting together to play cards on the boat. The smoky cabin really couldn't stay, and He Jianye had no choice but to walk to the relatively uninhabited deck and blow the sea breeze. The night time is very good for He Jianye, he is completely immersed in the cultivation of boxing, and the day has become his sleep time. Luckily, no one cares about them, they just sleep or play cards. It passes through the Strait of Malacca, the port of Singapore, the port of Mumbai in India, enters the Red Sea from the Indian Ocean, and turns to the Suez Canal to Alexandria in Egypt..... Just watched the ship's calendar flip through one by one, time passed slowly, and finally the fleet entered the port of Gibraltar, and after a period of sailing, it finally reached the port of Marseille in Europe, France, and the short stay in other places along the way was that the fleet had to stay in the port of Marseille for a week, and the merchant ships were preparing to handle goods, replenish fresh water, replenish coal, etc., and some ships in the fleet were still undergoing some repairs. He Jianye, who hadn't been to the mainland for a long time, followed everyone to Marseille, and He Jianye, who didn't spend much money all the way, was followed by a few officers who were about to lose out, and He Jianye didn't care, leading them to eat, drink, and experience the romance of French girls all the way. The end result was that He Jianye spent a lot of money in his pocket, but only one person went back to the hotel to sleep in bed, because he saw those romantic French girls, and he was "seasick (afraid of not being pure enough and contracting something)". From the next day, He Jianye made an appointment with a few officers who were also "seasick" to hang out in Marseille under the guidance of local guides. A week was too short for the group of people who had been on the ship for months, and they didn't feel a good rest. Just after New Year's Day in 1934, He Jianye, a group of officers and students who had gone to Germany for exchanges, finally arrived at the port of Hamburg in the destination country. After disembarking at the port of Hamburg, officials from the National Government naturally came to meet and arrange rest, and at the arrangement of the consulate officials, a restorative diet and acclimatization training were carried out. Once here, the "good days" of the officers and cadets who came to exchange and study on the ship came to an end, and no one paid attention to how tired you were, except for those who were sick and could be hospitalized, all of them participated in adaptive training.

On January 10, 1934, after five days of adaptive training, led by the officials sent by the German government, accompanied by Chinese officials who also served as interpreters, they went to the place where they were going to learn and communicate. Along the way, passing by trains, cars, sometimes riding horses, and even some places have to walk over some areas at the speed of field marches, He Jianye, who has been walking around the city, does not know where he will be taken, and after half a month, He Jianye finally ushered in the sound of nature.

"This is the Alps in southern Germany, that is, the place of our Army Tactical Training Institute of the German Wehrmacht, you will spend the next half a year here, young Chinese, General Sickert highly recommends you, I hope you will not disappoint, if you have passed the test in this half a year, then you will get the honor you deserve." A fully armed Wehrmacht officer said,

"I want to ask what I came here to exchange and learn?" He Jianye asked,

"Fucking exchange learning, at your level, just a student here, you know? Here you will lose your privileges, just an ordinary soldier, you look at them, you will be trained like them, and the daily food will not guarantee your physiological needs, and you will have to go to the Alps to find the rest of the food yourself, but there will be a necessary salt supplement. Oh! I forgot to tell you that from today you don't have a fixed rest dormitory, you are going to say goodbye to your superior environment in China, and when you come here, all you have is a field tent. And you have to keep this tent, only at the end of the month you can apply to your superiors for a new field tent, and if there is any accident in the middle, you will have to sleep in the open. The Wehrmacht officer pointed to the German soldiers who were training next to him and said,

"Oh! Poor Oriental, I hope you can hold out for a full month, then I will win a lot of bets! Another German officer scoffed,

"Hans, come here, this Chinese boy is a new member of your team, tell him how to integrate into your collective, if he fails the assessment, you will be in trouble." The Wehrmacht officer called out to a German soldier in training, and Hans, who seemed to have no sign in any way, seemed to be a minor officer here.

"Come with me, young man." Hans led He Jianye to a warehouse, turned around and said, "All your dead people's belongings are put here, stored, and can be retrieved when you leave, and everything you have here will no longer have privacy, including underwear." Hans said to the storekeeper, "Luka, give him the recruits all their equipment, and as a care for the newcomers, please arrange a bathroom for this young man, and shave all the hair on his body, he will not need it." ”

Half an hour later, He Jianye, whose body hair had all been shaved, came out wearing a Wehrmacht training uniform. "The soldiers here are all excellent soldiers who have served in the Wehrmacht for more than two years, and according to your Oriental words, they are all proficient, and shooting and fighting are the most basic functions. Here's what you'll do for the next week: Wake up at 5:30 a.m. and run a 5,000-meter run with a weight of 20 kg. At 8:00, train 100 hook rope slides and 100 trips through 30 meters of barbed wire. 10:00 Upper limb strength exercises. 13:30: Hand stability training for firearms. 16:00 Live firing for 1 hour. Half an hour after dinner, continue to run 5000 meters with a weight of 20 kg. This is your basic training, on top of that, a swimming session every 3 days; 7 days of 25 km weight 30 kg cross-country marching training. 15 days of skydiving training: follow them on a skydive from an altitude of 2,000 meters. 30 days of wilderness survival training, bring 3 days of food to survive in the wild for 7 days, march more than 1,000 kilometers, but also carry guns, ammunition and survival supplies. Of course, after 7 days, if you don't meet the basic assessment, you don't need to participate in the follow-up training. Hans said,

"Sir, what is the assessment standard?" He Jianye asked,

"Oh? Do you want to do targeted training? It's okay to tell you. Run 5 kilometers in 25 minutes with weights; push-ups 200 times for 5 minutes; 400-meter obstacle course running for no more than 2 minutes; Throw a grenade a hundred times, each time it must exceed 50 meters. Once that's done, we'll send our weakest soldier here to fight with you in unrestricted hand-to-hand combat, and you'll need to knock him down. Then you will pass the test. ”
