Recently, the frequency of US air raids has been increasing, and every day a different number of warplanes will fly to Mandalay and Taunggyi to conduct reconnaissance or attack, and the land within a radius of several hundred kilometers has been devastated by them.

At present, the number of Japanese fighters throughout Southeast Asia has dropped sharply, and in addition to the losses in battle, more are being transferred to the Pacific islands.

In order to preserve their strength, the 7th and 8th Army Aviation Brigades in Mandalay did not dare to move lightly except for the main areas and airfields, and could only allow the enemy to be arrogant under their noses.

Liao Mingyu's tactical plan for the Nankan Air Force is also very clear, as far as possible, do not provoke the opponent's air defense forces, and pick those places with clear goals and lack of defense, anyway, it is all kinds of harassment and sabotage, which makes the Japanese friends who are already living a bad life even more sad.

The Yankees gave their full support to this, because the only thing they could say in Southeast Asia was the air force, and all kinds of aerial bombs and napalm were sent to Nankan for preparation, and the pilots were on standby all day, which dealt a heavier blow to little Japan and brought some misdirection to the other side, thinking that this was a prelude to preparing for an attack.

Yamashita did not dare to be careless, and while stepping up the defense arrangements of various departments, he vigorously mobilized bicycles to form his "Silver Wheel Force", and for this reason, he also transferred a large number of armored vehicles from Malaysia to cooperate with the main action, so as to reproduce the feat of defeating the British army in Singapore.

The time slowly transitioned to July, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the rainy season is also coming, Myanmar almost three days of rain and two days of sun, the hot and humid climate is vividly displayed in this rainforest.

The poor environment is not suitable for large-scale military operations, and even if there is a desire to attack, there is nothing that can be done, but fortunately, both sides are dragging their troops because of their own affairs, and this period is calm.

At present, the 3rd and 200th Divisions of the Honors have basically completed the training work, and the 50th Division's redressing and training are also being carried out at the same time.

Although the training is carried out according to uniform standards, there are some differences in the personal quality of the soldiers in various units.

Not to mention the 50th Division from the Sichuan Army and the supplementary regiments scattered by various units, the Nanyang Self-Salvation Army's gang is accustomed to using the miscellaneous troops of all countries, and it is difficult for them to walk in unison on the playground, not to mention the skillful cooperation according to the tactical requirements, and they can't even understand some ordinary passwords.

It can't be helped, everything has to start from scratch, first of all, you have to give them a new look before training, and the most important core is one word... Raise.

Taking advantage of this time, Liao Mingyu set up several barracks, training grounds, medical and health stations and other logistics facilities in Nankan, the purpose of which was to reinvent the new brothers.

First, he gathered the soldiers of the 50th Division and took them to a special sanitation station, where they were subjected to strict hygiene treatments: bathing, haircuts, dirt removal, vaccinations, and so on.

The old clothes and pants that were taken off were piled together and not allowed to be worn again, and they were poured with gasoline and burned directly. No hair or beard should be kept and all should be shaved to prevent the spread of parasites.

After some repairs and the old mud that has been rubbed off for many years, the recruits feel as if they have unloaded a lot of baggage, and they all feel very light.

After the cleaning was completed, the distribution of munitions began, and the quartermaster officers counted them one by one according to the roster. These items include: a military hat and a steel helmet, two sets of camouflage military uniforms in summer and winter, a woolen sweater jacket, two training vests, two sets of cotton underwear and underwear, a pair of socks, socks and tweed leggings, and a pair of canvas rubber shoes and big scalp shoes.

There are also blankets, rubber raincoats, water bottles, flashlights, sunshades, mosquito shields, gas masks, bedding, towels, aluminum lunch boxes, marching backpacks, weapons and bullet belts, etc., the number is incomparable.

For the Sichuan soldiers in large armies, who were still wearing shabby straw sandals on their feet, these things could simply be called luxury accessories, and where had they been treated so well in the past.

When the soldiers of the 50th Division, who were heavily armed, marched to the training camp singing military songs, they all held their heads high, and their hearts were full of the dignity of being a Chinese soldier.

Soon the intensive training began, and the soldiers, under the leadership of the instructors, were doing the prescribed training subjects in the company unit, and for a time the command trumpets shook the sky, the sound of shooting guns was endless, and young figures who were desperately sweating could be seen everywhere.

At first, there was not much training content, only three aspects: queue, physical fitness, and shooting, although the difficulty was not high, but the amount of training was very large.

"One-two-one, one-two-one, one! Two! Four! ”

"One, two, three, four!"

"Who... Raise your feet a little! Like a group of, cheer me up! ”

"The muzzle of the gun is raised, the wrist is supported, and it is soft and soft when you haven't eaten!" Valley Entanglement

"Running over there... Don't think that Lao Tzu doesn't know that you grind foreign workers? Anyway, dinner starts at 5 o'clock, and those who don't run the specified number of laps are not allowed to eat, until the end of the run! ”

……

Countless training instructors wearing white short-sleeved sleeves and camouflage combat caps are holding whips, guiding the soldiers' training in a serious and fierce manner.

They walked through the various training columns, and from time to time they could hear a deafening roar, and they would not talk nonsense when they encountered those who were lazy or did not listen to the greetings.

In one corner of the shooting range, a few soldiers stood in place after firing a set of bullets, and they still had a few dozen bullets in their pockets, but they were not seen to continue shooting.

"Hey? Why is this? Bullets keep the cubs, huh? A middle-aged instructor with a beard on his face walked over and questioned dissatisfied.

I saw that the sleeve on his right arm was empty, and there were a few hideous scars on his resolute face, and at first glance he was a veteran of a hundred battles who had been seriously injured, and his fierce appearance made several small soldiers tremble and dare not answer.

"Dumb? Yes!? ”

"Newspaper... Report to the instructor... I... We..."

"What the hell, talk well!"

The one-armed instructor's harsh reprimand made everyone a little frightened, but one soldier still replied in a low voice:

"Back... Instructor, I... We are afraid that we will be blamed by the commander for fighting too much, and we want to have so many bullets... I also want to save it for when I go to war. ”

Before the training, the logistics personnel issued dozens of rounds of ammunition to each soldier, but it was obvious that this "huge amount" was still too luxurious for the Sichuan soldiers who were used to frugality, and they thought that this was a month's amount, and they were thinking about how to save a little, for fear that they would not be able to use it on the battlefield.

"Stinky boy....Haven't you seen the world? I didn't even say anything, but you're still distressed..."

Is that the because of this? The one-armed instructor's swarthy face twitched slightly, and he said with a smile and arrogance:

"Put a hundred hearts, go to the battlefield and take care of it for you, our 88th Army doesn't have much, how much ammunition you need! When the time comes, I'm afraid that you won't bring more because of it. ”

The soldiers looked at each other, good fellows, is it so arrogant? Training alone can send so many bullets, you must know that they have not necessarily trained more ammunition in one day when they have been fighting in the past.

Good marksmanship is fed by bullets, and Liao Mingyu naturally understands this truth better than anyone else, so he spares no effort to give his soldiers the greatest guarantee in terms of training.

30 rifle rounds and 60 pistol rounds per person per day, all of which must be on target at a distance of 50 meters to be qualified, and the ammunition of machine gunners and snipers must be counted separately.

At the end of the day, bullet tubes are casual enough. Instead of letting them shoot blindly on the battlefield and cause waste, it is better to spend more ammunition on the training ground, and it can also effectively improve the soldier's marksmanship and form combat effectiveness.

Liao Mingyu knows very well that since he takes the route of elite soldiers, he has to go to the capital, anyway, with the support of the Yankees and the system, this consumption can still be withstanded.

"Don't stick here, you have to run out of bullets before the sun goes down, and you won't be allowed to leave the training ground until the sun goes down! Did you hear it all!? ”

"Hear me clearly!"
