Chapter 24 On-the-job training

The personnel are all there, but Shepard still didn't directly send these guys out to work, it's not that he is kind-hearted, but Shepard, as a responsible capitalist, hates the most wasting capital at will, and the lives of employees are the boss's gold coins, which must be spent worthwhile!

Therefore, after arriving at the camp, these employees from South Korea have to undergo a two-week adaptation training, otherwise if someone is smacked on the head by Uncle Black on the first day of work, it will be a waste of Shepard's money, you must know that the contractor's 750,000 yuan, he has already spent almost half of it, and there may be more money to spend in the future.

But fortunately, it is quite simple to train the Korean soldiers, and the Korean army in this period is still more energetic than the younger generations who indulged in the women's group and could not extricate themselves, on the one hand, because South Korea at this time is the Fourth Republic period, and most of the senior generals of the army were born in the old Japanese Army period, so the troops trained out are quite a bit of Showa legacy, such as the relationship between superiors and subordinates and the relationship between the military and the people, the subordinates treat their superiors more sincerely than their fathers, and the army treats civilians at this time, and it cannot be said that the autumn is not guilty. But it can be regarded as a fist and kick.

However, for the suzerain, the Korean soldiers are extremely obedient as always, and after Shepard scattered these big soldiers and divided them into the various squads of the American commander, there was not a single thorn, and everyone obeyed the commander's orders in addition to obedience, which is also a good thing.

After getting the establishment, it's a matter of training, in fact, there is no rigorous training, Shepard doesn't expect these guys to practice to a dozen or twenty level, as long as they play normally, most of the training he asks for is about how to survive in Africa.

Although European colonizers have been exploiting Africa for centuries, much of the continent remains as it is, home to animal friends rather than human amusement parks.

Therefore, jungle survival training is very necessary, in addition, daily drills and shooting are also essential, on the one hand, to ensure the combat effectiveness of these guys, and on the other hand, to ensure the reputation of the company.

In later generations, when everyone mentions contractors, they will immediately think of the notorious Blackwater company in the Middle East, although they do bad things, the regular army is doing the same, but the regular army has a public announcement to wipe the ass, what is Blackwater, Shepard does not expect his subordinates to be able to do nothing to the common people, but also beg these guys not to think that thieves with the army are hateful, then on the one hand, these guys can only make these guys have no energy to do bad things, on the other hand, strict punishment regulations have been formulated, as long as the bad things cause the company's reputation to be damaged, you are waiting to lose money, in addition, He also strictly controlled the alcohol standard during the mission, but anyone who entered the war zone to drink and misbehaved would also lose his family.

The company hired you to fight a war, if you want to drink, go back, and no one cares if you drink to death!

The result was immediate, but it did have a very big effect, and now the three-year-old children in Katanga also knew that there was a new wave of mercenaries who did not go to brothels or taverns, and the reputation of the Shadow Company spread first.

"Hannibal!"

“boss!”

Hannibal, who was watching his men's shooting drills, heard Shepard greet him, and immediately threw his job to the non-commissioned officer on the side, and he trotted over quickly.

Because of the rainforest climate in Katanga, most of the company's employees ditched their heavy helmets and put on comfortable penny hats, even Shepard, but everyone usually lowered the brim to block the sun, except for Hannibal, who rolled up the brim on both sides, like a cowboy from the West.

"How?"

"It's okay, these guys' shooting skills are barely passable!"

"Is there anything better?"

"There are a few, I did what you said, and made a mark!"

"Well, I'll see!"

Shepard took the booklet, looked at it a few times, and nodded with satisfaction.

"It's good, these guys look pretty good, I just got a batch of new guns, and I can use them for these guys!"

"New guns?"

"It can't be considered brand new, it's an old gun!"

Shepard said with an explanation.

Although Knight Gun Company has been included in his hands, it is pure fool's dream to figure out a new gun across the era by Knight himself in a short period of time, Shepard also wants to get MK17 in one day, get a guy like HK416, but it is not realistic at all, Knight Firearms is currently limited, so if Knight wants to get a military order, it can only start by changing the gun.

Shepard didn't think about letting Knight make a fuss about the AR15, but first changed it with the military's piled up M14.

Speaking from the heart, the M14 as a weapon still has something to affirm, otherwise the civilian version of the Springfield M1A would not be widely praised by the market.

High power and high precision for the M14, is a commendable advantage, the reason why the bad reviews in Vietnam are like the first period, mainly because it is used in the wrong place, otherwise in the mountainous areas of Iraq and Afghanistan, seals and fourth class people would not have copied the M14 again.

And Knight's modification of the M14 is also based on Shepard's suggestions and requirements, as for Shepard's request, it is natural to feel the answer of later generations and say that he came up with it.

According to Shepard's request, Knight technicians re-ordered a batch of highly accurate competition-grade barrels, then replaced the aluminum alloy body, added a pistol grip, replaced the original heavy wooden stock with an alloy telescopic stock, and matched it with a triple scope from Colt, although it was not comparable to the later M14 modification, but it was still enough to stand out in this period.

"The army should make all those M14s like this!"

This is the first sentence Hannibal said after seeing the new gun that had just been airlifted, in a way, the appearance is the combat effectiveness of the sentence, in fact, there is nothing wrong, because a weapon with strong combat effectiveness is not necessarily high-value, but a high-value weapon, the combat effectiveness is generally not weak.

The subsequent firearms test was praised by many veterans, and several guys even felt that they could kill a running rabbit at a distance of 400 meters.

To get a vote of appreciation from the veterans, it means that the direction is right, Shepard will send these modified M14 to the squads, and do not forget to give the shooters a thick book for them to write feedback, so that he can continue to improve, and then take it to get the military's votes.

"These days, there are really not many conscientious contractors like me!"
