Zhou Ming was puzzled by this training method, his mind filled with questions.
“Captain, what’s the point of this training?”
Zhang Liang, who had seen a lot and knew a lot, saw this and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He smiled and explained.
“These two guys are tough!”
“This training method can quickly improve their ability to handle the recoil of the gun, stabilize the barrel... wait, I didn't expect them to come up with such a method.”
“I wonder how long they can last?”
After listening, Zhou Ming seemed to understand.
“Holding an unloaded gun is already tiring, that wooden stick must weigh a pound or two. I doubt they can even last ten minutes.”
“But they are certainly dedicated.”
Zhang Liang nodded slightly. “Mm.”
Then the two of them discussed the situation they encountered in Li Jiazhuang, and the situation they encountered along the way.
“From the current situation, the Japanese and the puppet troops are arresting people everywhere to build strongholds. This poses a serious threat to our operations and causes great inconvenience and harm to the people.”
“Especially the stronghold in Xiao Wangcun, it’s like a noose around our necks.”
“We have to take out this stronghold in Xiao Wangcun!” Zhang Liang nodded slightly, then his face showed difficulty.
“But with our county brigade’s strength, it might be difficult to take it out...”
“Your team will keep a close eye on it for now and then we’ll make further plans.”
Zhou Ming: “Understood.”
As the two of them talked, time flew by.
10 minutes passed.
But Su Yang and Shui Sheng were still holding on, their perseverance was astounding.
“Zhou Ming, tell them to stop before they get injured.”
“Yes!”
Zhou Ming replied loudly, then walked towards the two who were training.
Su Yang saw Zhou Ming coming over and said to Shui Sheng beside him: “You won this time.”
Then he put away his gun.
He rubbed his sore arm.
The training and journey had been tiring for Su Yang, so he had started this training to distract Shui Sheng.
Now, his goal had been achieved.
Shui Sheng's face was filled with gratitude. He said: “Thank you.”
“We are comrades in arms. You’re welcome.” Su Yang laughed heartily and said: “The captain is here.”
Then, Su Yang saluted Zhou Ming, who was walking towards them.
Although they were militiamen, they were still soldiers.
“Captain, why are you back?”
“Anything?”
Zhou Ming glared at Su Yang, who was pretending to be clueless, and said: “Why are you training again? Didn’t I tell you to rest?”
“Also, where did you learn that method?”
Su Yang chuckled: “Captain, we’re just idle anyway, so we’re practicing.”
“After firing that shot in Li Jiazhuang, I felt that my barrel was unstable and the recoil was quite strong. This is not conducive to continuous shooting, so I thought of this method to improve myself.”
“That shot hitting the Japanese soldier was mostly luck. If I had fired several shots in a row, I think the bullets would have flown into the sky.”
Zhou Ming was very pleased to hear Su Yang’s words.
“You have self-awareness. You haven’t become arrogant because of your achievement. Good!”
“Your method is actually good, but you have to be careful. Don’t get hurt and affect tomorrow’s formal training.”
“It’s almost dark, go and rest.”
“Assemble on the back hill at 6 am tomorrow morning. No being late!”
“Yes!”
Zhou Ming watched Su Yang and Shui Sheng return to their rooms and smiled.
He was very satisfied with Su Yang’s performance. He was even a little surprised.
Su Yang could guide Shui Sheng in such a short time and help him turn grief into strength. This ability showed his potential to be a commander.
Plus, he has some education. Maybe after graduation, he could be considered for the position of deputy squad leader.
...
The county brigade is equivalent to a battalion-level organization, the district company is equivalent to a company-level, and the next level up is directly a squad.
The county brigade has three district companies, and Su Yang is in the ninth squad.
Since they need to monitor the movements in Xiao Wangcun, Zhou Ming sent two people there.
Therefore, the squad only had 9 people left.
The next morning.
At this time, on the back hill.
A squad of 9 people had already begun training.
But it was not the same as what Su Yang had imagined.
There was no physical training. After a simple warm-up, they went straight to practice combat training, gunnery training, battlefield survival lectures... and so on.
The fighting was also just a few simple bayonet moves.
It was a bit like learning by doing.
And they didn’t have bayonets, only wooden sticks.
Gunnery training, due to the shortage of ammunition, could only practice aiming, raising the gun, lying down... and other actions for ‘shooting’.
However, Su Yang also learned very diligently.
In the morning, they practiced bayonet fighting and gunnery, and in the afternoon, they helped the villagers work.
At this time, Su Yang finally understood why they didn't do physical training.
Because working was the best physical training.
Clearing land, farming, carrying water, chopping wood... all of these were physical training.
Time flew by during training.
With each practice, Su Yang quickly mastered the techniques of various subjects, and his strength unconsciously improved rapidly.
With the help of his extraordinary talent, he was further improved.
Thrust is the main technique of bayonet fighting, and it emphasizes speed and ferocity.
Over the next half month, in addition to learning the necessary training, Su Yang spent his free time learning cultural knowledge.
After all, most of the characters at this time were still traditional characters.
But since there were no literacy classes set up yet, Su Yang could only learn by himself.
Just as Su Yang was looking at the books he borrowed.
The whistle sounded.
Hearing this, Su Yang quickly grabbed his rifle and ran towards the village entrance to assemble.
