Chapter 320: Devil Training (I)

"Special operations, combat operations carried out in special ways and means. Its actions have the characteristics of special purpose, careful planning, unique methods, diverse means, concealment and suddenness, and decisive battles. These special methods include: covert infiltration, surprise attacks; Elite soldiers attack from afar, and flash vertically; Directly take the key points, joint siege; Disguise and enter, inside and outside; Digging out 'eyes' to paralyze them, special attacks, feigning hostility and instant counterattacks, positioning behind enemy lines, guiding attacks and other special attack methods. This will be a very different means of attack from conventional warfare...... "Parks instilled a different combat concept in these veterans on the first day, and he used the combat methods of modern special forces as the basis for training these soldiers, and planned to combine the actual personnel and equipment of the company with training on this basis.

The main purpose of the first day was to change the minds of the GIs, and it was clear that his theories were far from the purpose of the previous training. But he doesn't require everyone to understand this concept, he only asks everyone to be able to implement it.

And these people outside the original E Company were very surprised, because they had never tried such a way of fighting, and everything sounded like a fantasy. But anyway, the first day they had a very comfortable day. It was important to remember Major Parks' new ideas, but they were not profound, but only surprising because they were too new.

"It's a new idea, I've heard it for the first time," said one of the GIs, walking into his barracks, the first day was lighter and making everyone who came here feel good, "what if we were surrounded?" ”

"Corporal, what's your name?" White suddenly poked his head out from the side of G, looked at the GI and said, "Which regiment is coming from?" When did you come to Europe? Do you have any strengths? ”

"Kaufman, Charr? Kaufman. Sergeant, I came from the 5O2 Regiment and spent a few days in Bastone in February 1945. The soldier replied with some seriousness, "I volunteered to join this company, what I am best at is shooting, I used to be the first in team shooting, in the competition"

"Team first? How many people are there in the competition? Or is it just you? White couldn't help but smile, then pointed his finger at Kaufman and said, "Man, no matter what you say, your first place can't be maintained in this company." Do you know our company's Sifudi? He shot a German general at Arnhem Bridge, and Major Parkes, and he's the best guy here, so you've got to be humble, and if something like this is really new, it's better not to say it, or it'll make people laugh. ”

"Yes, squad leader," Kaufman's expression was still serious, but there was still some dissatisfaction in his expression. He was confident in his shooting. After all, it is an indisputable fact that he was able to win the first place in the team, and in fact, this fact has greatly inflated his self-confidence. So this is also the meaning of his coming to this company, he wants to use his marksmanship to create a brilliant record, and it is best to be able to win the Medal of Honor. As a result, he didn't believe much in White's words.

After a while, he suddenly relaxed his tense body, then sat on the g, glanced at White and said, "Squad leader, I said that these concepts are very fresh because I heard of them for the first time. But what we are facing in the future is actual combat, and there will always be a gap between that. ”

"Don't talk this nonsense, man. These are all things that we have been proven. Boy, let me tell you why I'm here and your class president? White got up from his g, then walked up to Corporal Kaufman, poked his finger at his mouth, and said, "Normandy rescued us for days in the wilderness, motionless, and then rescued all the captives in one fell swoop; In the vicinity of the Arnhem Bridge, we landed and then hid in the woods, reconnoitred the enemy, and then destroyed the German oil and ammunition depots in one fell swoop, and led them to kill each other and finally break through, if it weren't for the slow pace of those damned infantry divisions, I think the war would have ended a few months ago; And in the trench warfare in the Netherlands, we raided the Germans and blew up their artillery; And at Bastone, one of our platoons made a surprise attack on the German line, and annihilated two platoons of German troops, and plundered a large amount of supplies; At Buster, Major Parks and two men were able to free the American prisoners of war who were being escorted by the Germans, and captured all the German prisoners. Man, have you heard all of this? I was personally involved in almost all of them, except for the last one, of course."

"Yes, I know, I've heard of it," Kaufman muttered a little, and now he finally had a little awe of the squad leader in front of him, "but, I always felt—"

"Don't say you always think this nonsense. I'll give you a word of advice for Major Parks, man," White said with a little arrogance, shaking his head.

"What?" Kaufman couldn't help but look up at him.

"Whatever Major Parks says, you just have to do it, and he's always right. Don't be suspicious, doubt can only kill you, especially in the middle of a fight, just remember this," White said, returning to his g, and then ignoring the guy. Obviously, Kaufman had to think about it for a while.

In fact, there are not a few people who want to think like Kaufman, they can enter this company from other regiments, they all have their own advantages, shooting, fighting, proficient in many Chinese, etc., especially some soldiers who are not veterans join, and they have their specialties.

But no matter how much they complained, the next day's training was already on board. And what Parks wants to train them is the same training methods that the special forces of later generations will do. The first day was a physical training with a load of far from the ordinary company. Although these soldiers have been rigorously trained as paratroopers, the first day of training is unbearable for many people.

"Hurry, hurry, you have five minutes to get to your destination" Parks himself carried the wood, and as he ran, he held his pocket watch and yelled at the soldiers carrying the heavy wood, "Don't let the Japanese kick your ass, hurry up, are you a snail?" Are you qualified to join the Special Ops Company? Damn, this is the Black Panther Assault Company, not the Snail Company," Parks ran to the front again, roaring loudly. It's all heart-pounding.

"Okay, one more round trip, hurry, carry your wood, make a round trip, hurry," Parks ran forward with the log on his back, and the Welsh captain picked up the whip and yelled at the soldiers, "Hurry up, you guys, you have annoyed the Major, and you can bear it." This log is much lighter than the equipment you're going to carry in the future, so you can't stand it? Let me tell you, the Panthers are the most elite unit of the 1O1 Airborne Division, the 1O1 Division is the most elite unit of the US Army, and we are the elite of the elite. You're not qualified to be kicked out, hurry up, don't sleepwalk"

"God, I'm out of breath," Kaufman finally stopped when he was about to reach the finish line, and White, who was running beside him, suddenly fell backwards from the front and yelled at him, "Aren't you tǐng awesome?" Why stop. I know you're just a mouthful, put down the wood, and go back to your company," he said, carrying the wood on his back and crossing Kaufman again.

"Damn," Kaufman cried, then picked up the log and ran forward with great difficulty, flanked by a group of panting GIs, who were just as tired as Kaufman.

"Half an hour of rest, and then we'll do the second session." The Welsh Captain's voice was heard again. Suddenly, a group of people sat down as if they were paralyzed. They lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Damn, that's what the major wanted? This is torture for us, more shameful than the torture of the Jews in the concentration camps," one soldier lay down and said to Kaufman, who was lying next to him, "What about you? What do you think? ”

"I don't know, Huls, but I've been tortured in the most brutal way." Kaufman replied absentmindedly, he felt that his shoulders had worn out the skin, and he couldn't help but gasp without saying a word, and the pull of his muscles made him gasp.

"I regret it now, Kaufman," the soldier named Hulse turned his head to look at Kaufman and whispered, "I won't be like this tomorrow, just fire, I don't care." If it's like this every day, you might as well die here."

Kaufman raised his eyes to the sky, suddenly shook his head lightly and said, "No, Huls, I won't leave." I have to prove myself. Isn't this the best company in the division? Isn't it said that it is the elite of the elite of the American ** team? I'm going to have to stay here, I'm not going anywhere unless I'm really not that piece of stuff and someone kicks me out. ”

"Okay, okay, Kaufman, we're friends, aren't we? I'll be with you, to hell with that damn major. Let's go, let's go, or we'll stay in this hell," Hulse nodded. The two of them never spoke again, because it took a lot of energy to speak, and they now had to make the most of the time to regain a little of their strength.

Of course, even the veterans of Company E felt very difficult with this kind of training intensity, but their situation was much better, they had the training style that Parks taught them in Takoya, and they knew how to adjust their breathing and distribute their physical strength during exercise. But even so, it makes people feel that the intensity is much stronger than when they were training in Takoya.

"I finally understand why the boss is so strong," said Goneri, sitting down and turning to White, "it seems that he has always trained himself like this." ”

"I love this kind of training," White sat down as well, "and to be honest, if I could be as strong as he is, I'd rather do it every day." Of course, today is the beginning, and the one who persists is the best. I just heard Parks say that on the day we finish training, there will be big names coming to visit us. ”

"General Eisenhower? Or is it the British Phase? At this time, Maraqi, who walked towards them, couldn't help but smile and said, "We have seen these characters when we were in England, and there is nothing new." Unless it's the new president of the United States, Harry Truman, it may still be a bit exciting. ”

While a few people were talking here, they heard a sharp whistle and remembered, and there was a loud shout from the Captain of Wales: "Hurry up, assemble, let's start the second round of training, hurry, hurry, I can't stand it, you just climb back to your own company, let people laugh at you, you cowards"
