Soon Xu Ming knew what Zhao Ren's harsh training was all about. On the playground, all the soldiers were motionless with their guns, and a brick was placed under the muzzle. If Xu Ming felt painful in training before, it is very painful now.

Half an hour later, "Disbanded!" Rest for a quarter of an hour", as soon as the words fell, all the soldiers collapsed to the ground like mud.

Shangguan Min walked over and handed Xu Ming a pot of water. "Head Xu, I'm starting to get tired, and I'll get used to it after three months." Xu Ming nodded, took the water, and at the same time picked up the grapefruit and wiped the sweat on his body.

"It's okay, if others can do it, I can do it." Xu Ming said strongly.

It obviously takes courage to say this, and soon, Zhao Ren added 5 kilometers of cross-country running, and Xu Ming deeply felt the difficulty.

"It's 2,200 meters now," Xu Ming cheered himself up.

"2,500 meters, halfway through." Xu Ming comforted himself.

"3,000 meters, sixty percent!" He imagines himself to be the protagonist of Forrest Gump's story.

"3200 meters, is the mark correct?" Xu Ming felt that the 200 meters had passed so long.

"There are 1700 left," Xu Ming wiped his face with his hand, but his eyes were already confused with sweat.

"1600 left," Xu Ming had no other thoughts, now not only did the two legs and feet not belong to him, he wanted his eyes, heart, chest, lungs, liver, spleen, and any parts of his body to leave his body. Because there is pain everywhere in the body, and there is no discomfort everywhere!

"There are 1,000 left," Xu Ming now found himself in the realm of epiphany. The sound of the oncoming wind, the sound of the water slapping on the shore not far away, the instructor's report mileage, and the wheezing of others were all so loud.

In the end, there are only 500 meters left. But this 500 meters is no ordinary 500 meters.

Xu Ming was like a moth, but instead of swooping into the firelight, he swooped down on the ground. The first is a 100-meter crawl. Xu Ming found that it was more appropriate to describe him as a toad, his elbows and knees became his power source, and the friction between his skin and the ground was more like the wail of a toad when he was caught.

Having just climbed over the barbed wire, everyone began to run to avoid bullets. Left! Rightward! Advance! Back off! Lie down! Leaping! Chen Huizhi's voice was short and powerful. A distance of 200 meters, like two centuries of tribulation!

Dumplings, oh, is a person snapping into the mud, this is an instructor tailored for them to lengthen and deepen the "farmhouse", very natural and environmentally friendly! Xu Ming struggled to pull out the left leg that was trapped at the base of his thigh, and then stepped out of his right leg. Now it's not a step-by-step, it's a one-legged advance, and from time to time someone doesn't grasp the balance well, and even enjoys a thick mud feast with their heads and faces. A senior leader like Xu Ming not only enjoyed it twice, but also ate a pound!

Finally, it's all over. Xu Ming floated on the water, letting the waves wash away. If you don't suffer a little, you don't know happiness. Now, Shangguan Min said that they should rest in Qishui for 15 minutes, and he suddenly felt very happy. Oh, may time stand still forever!

…….

"No", Peng Cong handed a large enamel jar to Xu Ming. It was Xu Ming's lunch. Although Xu Ming was very tired, he still had the strength to eat.

"How is it, is it okay?" Shangguan Min asked with concern.

"No problem", Xu Ming's mouth was very stiff.

"The commander must master the hardships of the soldiers." Chen Huizhi also said, and then added.

"Not to mention the Red Army and the Central Army, even Li Bai's Gui Department, Feng Yuxiang's Northwest Army and other troops in other places, the front-line commanders are very hard."

Zhao Ren then explained, "Commander Xu, it's not that a few of us are too strict, this thing is 89 out of 10 unsatisfactory in fighting, exercising on obstacles, marching in the field, and getting sick and injured, now I can't develop good habits, it's not good to be a commander." ”

Xu Ming nodded at them gratefully, obviously they were worried that they would not be able to endure hardship, at the beginning he felt very uncomfortable, and sometimes he even had the idea of quitting, the reasons were ready-made. "Wasn't China victorious in the War of Resistance Against Japan? What are you fooling with? "Xie Qianli, Zhang Qian, and Cao Youwen all said that they were not suitable for the army." …… But when he completed one training item after another, he suddenly found that the moment that was very painful was actually very accomplished when he remembered it. He was delighted to find that he was changing, both physically and mentally, to become stronger and more resilient. If in the past he was ignorant and fearless, now he has the courage to face difficulties.

Even Qiu Linfeng has changed, he used to have a fashionable split hair on his head, and he was wearing a straight suit, and a pen must be inserted in the pocket of the suit. Now he has shaved his head flat, and although his clothes are still strong, the military uniform and his resolute face look heroic.

In the afternoon, it was a stabbing training, which Zhao Chen and others emphasized. Unpredictable or unexpected events on the battlefield are the norm, and when encountering these, it is often necessary to solve them by fighting bayonets. As for what Xu Ming said about shooting with a pistol or rifle, it's too late: by the time you press the bullet and open the safe, there may have been a few holes in your body.

Xu Ming thought so.

Chen Huizhi first demonstrated the up and down movements of a bayonet, and then someone brought two straw men.

The straw man is life-size and covered in cloth. Chen Huizhi made four stabbing moves on the straw man. One in each direction, so that all the soldiers sitting around him could see it.

He moves very slowly, as slowly as he does tai chi, so that others can see it clearly.

A soldier came to practice, and the old man was full of energy, "poof, poof, poof, poof" He also stabbed four times in a row, stabbing the cloth with great force. After finishing, he looked at all directions and looked very proud.

"It's that simple!" Everyone couldn't help but think so.

Chen Huizhi called the soldier, and each of them took a wooden stick and dipped it in lime on their heads. Begin to stab each other.

Neither of them hid, the soldiers were too late, and Chen Huizhi did not move. Chen Huizhi pointed to the lime spots on his body, and then pointed at the other party. Unraveled the mystery of everyone.

"I was stabbed with this comrade just now, but if we were on the battlefield," Chen Huizhi said sharply to the crowd.

"I'm injured at most, he's definitely dead! Because I stabbed my heart, and he stabbed me in the ribs."

"There are many vital points in people's bodies, and they must be stabbed to the vital points, otherwise they may not be able to stab people to death. Fighting with a bayonet is by no means just stabbing you in the body! ”

After speaking, Chen Huizhi began to explain to everyone the key points of human life and the key points of action, and then asked people to stab in pairs. At this time, everyone received a special waistcoat. It is made of thin bamboo slices, and Xu Ming always feels that these look like pots.

"Bang, bang...", there was a sound of impact one after another from the "pot". From time to time, soldiers' sticks were lifted into the air. Four instructors are on the side to correct the incorrect grip posture.

The stab itself is not complicated, after all, it is not easy to play this flower in the era of heat and weapons. It focuses on resolving battles in a short time. Therefore, in addition to the simple and concise action essentials, the most important thing is arm strength and explosiveness.

It takes a long time to practice, and it is necessary to be proficient in forming a conditional launch.

"Smack", the wooden stick in Xu Ming's hand was once again picked into the air. Shangguan Min saw that Xu Ming had made almost every mistake he could, and immediately walked over.

"The next game is unstable, there are losses and no wins!"

"The grip posture is wrong," he adjusted Xu Ming's hand gesture with his hand.

"Don't hold your hands to death, but force them down the moment you make contact!"

"Keep your eyes on each other, don't blink!"

…….

Under the careful guidance of the instructors, Xu Ming's splitting and stabbing are also decent, whether it is the stability of the footwork and the consistency of the stabbing method, it looks quite orderly. If he saw a wild boar, Xu Ming thought that most of them would not use a gun, but would use a bayonet to solve the problem. No, he had just managed to assassinate a hare (of course, the hare's legs had been trapped in a trap). The next day he was going to march in the field, and he was going to let the bayonets open the meat again.

Despite approaching October, the climate in the southwest is still hot. At this time, in the mountains of Qiyang, a team of thousands of people was marching.

This is exactly Xu Ming's security regiment, and according to the plan, it is a 20-kilometer non-stop forced march today.

Xu Ming wiped his sweat, salt had formed on his face, and it was even more uncomfortable to wipe the grapefruit, but it was also uncomfortable to let the sweat flow on his body without wiping. What's even more infuriating is the 10 kilograms of equipment and supplies on his body, and he also asked each person to add another pot of water, 2 and a half pounds of aluminum alloy, because Xu Ming asked not to drink water in the wild, nor to start a fire on the road.

Easier said than done. The reason why it doesn't work on paper is because things often don't work that way. For example, the 25 pounds on the body may not matter in normal times, but if you carry it on your back for 40 miles, it will be a different matter.

"Keqin, what should you do if you used to march in the field without water?" Xu Ming asked with a pant.

Shangguan Min didn't answer, just stopped and brushed a bunch of leaves with his hands. Then a wooden stick is squeezed on the rock, and the yellow-green juice slowly trickles down.

Xu Ming climbed up and tasted it, it was bitter and astringent.

Zhao Ren also picked up a knife and cut a bunch of bark. Xu Ming gritted his teeth and chewed, which was more bitter and astringent.

Shangguan Min and they were right, the physical fitness training at the beginning was more tiring, but the technical and tactical exercises were relatively easy. Whether it's the dense formation of recruits, the distancing, or the use of terrain to simulate movement and charge under enemy foot and artillery fire, or the agility and proficiency of machine guns, these are much easier than running and forced marching.

The reason why recruits are hard is because it is not easy for a person to change from casual habits, but once they change, they will feel that everything is in order. And this process of change is the process of a person's transformation. Xu Ming slowly felt that he was now growing into a real soldier, although he was still fighting mentally and physically from time to time.
