Although when talking about Africa, everyone will think that this place is poor and bad, and the black uncles either live in the grassland or in the primeval forest, but in fact it is almost the same, but this does not mean that the black uncles are all masters of wild survival.

There are countless black uncles who die in the forests and grasslands every year, and the causes of death are strange, some are attacked by wild animals to death, and some are lost and starved to death, so in fact, the black uncles' ability to survive in the wild is not necessarily very good, unless a few hunters and the like, they live on the forests and grasslands, and are familiar with every grass and tree, but there are not many such people.

However, it is not nothing, because there are still many hunters who are forced to join the army because of their livelihood, and a considerable number of them have been sent to Shepard, and Shepard has appointed the best performers as team leaders in the spirit of using them to death.

In addition to receiving additional military training every day, these team leaders are also responsible for teaching their team members the survival skills they know, including finding water and food, how to make a fire and identify directions, etc., Shepard also introduced KPI assessment, and this time the punishment is more severe, the lagging team will be thrown directly into the forest by trucks, and then let them get out of the forest little by little.

Although it is quite risky to survive in the forest, but fortunately, every time these unlucky eggs are thrown into it in groups, the greater the probability of survival of more people, plus there are teams and survival smoke bombs, if there is a dangerous situation, the bird helicopter that patrols on time every day will also help in time, whether it is transporting personnel or dropping materials, it can be completed in a very short time.

After this repeated on-the-ground running-in, the survival ability of the Black Uncles has also made a qualitative leap, although it is still not at the level of the regular army of any developed country, but at least they have learned to identify the direction and the most basic survival skills.

And the other benefit of the endless boring physical fitness is that the black soldiers will be very active in learning things that have nothing to do with physical fitness, and although most of them are illiterate and can only understand the specific meaning of those things by verbal teaching and gestures, it is much better to sit on the ground and learn things than to run three kilometers in armed cross-country running.

And the instructors also found out about this situation, so when they were teaching military theory, once someone made a mistake, they no longer carried out any spiritual infusion education, but let the other party run physically, if it doesn't work for three kilometers, it will be five kilometers, and if it doesn't work for five kilometers, it will be ten kilometers, and it doesn't require you to complete it for a long time, but you can't stop, others learn you to run, others rest and you run, others eat, and you are still running!

The advantage of this is that in less than a week, the two hundred black soldiers learned the correct aiming posture and understood what a three-point-line is.

At this time, Shepard handed out the weapon, but even if the gun was fired, it was still very early before the live ammunition was fired, and the black soldiers had to learn how to disassemble and maintain the guns, which was a more painful process for both the cadets and the instructors.

After all, in addition to their low cultural literacy, the black uncles also believe in the truth of miracles, and the process of disassembling and assembling the rifle alone took a full two weeks, and by the time they were fully proficient in weapon assembly and disassembly, a full third of the year had passed!

"Alright, I can finally teach them how to shoot!"

"But Colonel Kent is here tomorrow, isn't it a little too late to teach this now?"

"What's so late here, it's not because he's here to teach shooting!"

"But he's going to inspect tomorrow, and we can't explain it to the Pentagon!"

"It's okay, there's someone up there!"

It's not that the commanders are alarmist, it's that Shepard's training progress is really lagging behind, he spends nearly two-thirds of his time on physical fitness, and they have only managed 200 people, and the remaining 600 people haven't started at all!

"Believe me, these two hundred people have done it, then the rest of them will not be a problem!"

Shepard also knew that these commanders had different opinions from him, and he didn't force them to accept them, after all, everyone was here to get the job done.

The next day, the expedition from Kinshasa arrived at the training camp in military vehicles, and before entering the camp, Colonel Kent was amazed by the spirit of the black soldiers standing guard outside the door.

"Looks like our little friend can really surprise us!"

Colonel Kent was immediately full of anticipation, after all, judging the combat effectiveness of a unit can be seen from the mental outlook of the soldiers.

And Colonel Kent didn't know that Shepard had more to surprise him than that.

As the Katanga garrison's best sport, Shepard first showed Colonel Kent the physical fitness of the black soldiers, who sat under shaded parasols with several American officers and senior Wehrmacht officers from Kinshasa enjoying drinks, while the black soldiers scurried outside the training camp with their weapons and personal belongings on their backs.

Colonel Kent looked at the black soldiers who were walking like flying and nodded, this practice is really good, it seems that the Shadow Company does have some ability, but I don't know why, these black soldiers do not have training subjects in the US military, but they are a bit similar?

As a veteran military training instructor, Kent is still quite familiar with the military training subjects of infantry in various countries, and the first five-kilometer armed cross-country is just familiar to him, and then Shepard actually made a 400-meter hurdle, looking at the cheerful Uncle Black, the senior officials of the Wehrmacht from Kinshasa applauded again and again, but now Colonel Kent was a little unable to sit still.

"John, how do I feel a bit like a Russian in your training mode?"

"After all, our enemy is not the Russians, and there is no problem for us to learn the enemy's thinking, and we have also adopted a lot of Western-style training methods, but I still retain these Russian styles, after all, only in this way can you know what the Russians' training looks like!"

Kent took a sharp puff on his cigarette and whispered to Shepard as he puffed out the smoke through his nose.

"Did you do it on purpose or accidentally?"

"It's on purpose!"

Shepard replied proudly.

Kent, on the other hand, looked at Shepard silently, and finally said helplessly.

"But in this way, if something goes wrong, it's not good for me to make a deal to the DRC!"

"Ah, are you so responsible?"

"What kind of is this, you think I'm here for a vacation?"
