Chapter 749 Recruit training

"Stand up straight! If anyone keeps dangling around, run a circle!" The instructor loudly scolded the recruits who were undergoing formation training. His eyes were like a hawk, patrolling back and forth among the crowd. If he saw that someone's posture was not correct enough,

, then the unlucky guy will immediately be punished by running circles around the playground.

Sun Zhen was also among the crowd, staring at the backs of the heads in the row in front, standing straight. He estimated that he had maintained this posture for two sticks of incense, and some parts of his body had become stiff. But he still tried his best.

He persisted, unwilling to be expelled from the team at the last moment.

As a long copper whistle sounded, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to move their numb hands and feet. Compared with the beginning of the training, only about half of the qualified people were left, and those who did not persist

The last people received corresponding punishment measures.

Sun Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief, quickly moved his neck and waist, and then went to the side to drink water and rest. It had been half a month since he had been training in queues like this, but the seemingly simple training content was very easy to get rid of.

The person felt tired, even more tired than he had done in the fields before. After all, when doing farm work, you don't have to wait until your physical strength is exhausted before stopping to rest. However, this training seems to be designed to drain the trainee's physical strength again and again.

At first, Sun Zhen didn't quite understand the purpose of this kind of training. Shouldn't a soldier be practicing combat skills such as swords, guns, bows and arrows to kill enemies? What on earth does it matter if he spends half a day standing in queues, starting and walking in various queues?

Sun Zhen is not the only one who has such doubts. He knows that most of the new recruits in training do not understand this very well.

But later, the officer in charge of training them, Gao Qiaonan, impressed Sun Zhen with a lecture during a break. What Gao Qiaonan said was simple and direct: If you can't stand up on the training field now, after you go to the battlefield,

I'm afraid it has become a piece of loose sand a long time ago! All basic training is to enable you to follow orders and prohibitions on the battlefield in the future, so that you can save your own lives and kill the enemy with the help of collective strength.

Although Sun Zhen, who has never set foot on the battlefield, is still not able to fully understand the meaning of Takahashi Nan's words, he at least knows that the training he has received so far is not a meaningless waste of time. Sun Zhen heard that this man named Gao is short.

The tall officer was actually a Japanese pirate. After joining the militia, he relied on his accumulated military exploits on the battlefield to rise from an ordinary soldier to his current position. For the new recruits who joined the militia as new immigrants,

There is no doubt that this is a very inspiring story, which means that everyone in the Haihan Militia will have the opportunity to achieve success, and maybe in the future, like Takahashi Minami, he can become a senior officer with military power.

Of course, the person who spread this story would not tell the audience how many battles and how many battles Takahashi Minami went through before relying on his extraordinary performance to accumulate enough military exploits to be promoted. Except for him

In addition to his personal bravery, what is more important is that he has always maintained a high degree of loyalty to Haihan, allowing the military brass to safely hand over command to him.

There is queue training in the morning, combat skills training in the afternoon, and after dinner there is intensive ideological study in platoon units. The whole day is fully scheduled. For recruits like Sun Zhen, there is no space in the mind.

To accommodate other things, the training and learning content alone every day already made him feel exhausted.

The pace of life here is also completely different from Sun Zhen’s old environment in Dengzhou. Everywhere you look in the camp, you can see all kinds of slogans and slogans, large and small, such as “Sweat more in peacetime, fight more.”

"You will bleed less when you are a soldier", "You will not be afraid of death if you are a soldier, but you will not be a soldier if you are afraid of death", "Shedding skin and flesh will not leave you behind, you will bleed and sweat but not shed tears", "Always want to fight, do everything for the sake of fighting, dare to fight tough battles, and ensure victory",

"Honor, responsibility, faith, will, spirit, value"...

All kinds of slogans can be seen when you open your eyes every day. Every day, they go out to do exercises early, turn off the lights at night, and before three meals, they also shout slogans collectively. When Sun Zhen came here, he was just a confused person.

An ignorant farmer, but only more than ten days have passed, and now Sun Zhen can recite a dozen propaganda slogans at any time. Although Sun Zhen still does not understand the social structure of Haihan, nor does he know what the executive committee is.

existence, but this did not prevent him from beginning to regard himself as a member of the Haihan collective. And as the training deepened, Sun Zhen also began to gradually realize that the Haihan militia he belonged to was definitely not just about protecting the countryside.

It's just the private arm of order.

The instructors responsible for training new recruits are all veterans who have served for more than three years. Most of them enlisted in Annan and have participated in many military operations involving Haihan militia since the Annan Civil War. These instructors will occasionally talk about it during the training.

His previous combat experience told how the militia army fought in all directions and swept across all directions. But only at this time did recruits like Sun Zhen realize that the army he had joined had such rich combat experience, and the people who joined this army

Risks are also real.

There were also some wanton people who asked to be discharged from the army and left, and they actually did it - they were taken away by the military police with red armbands. As for where they were taken, the officers said nothing with gloomy faces, and others did not dare to ask.

.Anyone with any sense would not make such a request foolishly. Think about how much energy and financial resources Haihan spent to get people to be trained here. How can they leave casually with just a few words? This is

A serious army is not a kind of temple where you can come and leave as you please.

Sun Zhen didn't want to retire because of this. He had learned about the difference in treatment for immigrants before and after naturalization through various policy presentations these days. Even after naturalization, there was still a significant gap compared to the treatment as a soldier. As for promotion as a soldier,

First level, the level of salary improvement is far greater than that brought by the improvement of labor level. And the most important thing is that the promotion of military rank mainly depends on military merit. Rather than the number of years in the army, if you are lucky enough, you may be able to do it after one or two military operations.

You can gain promotion through military merit.

The platoon leader of Sun Zhen's current platoon joined the army at the end of last year, and his qualifications were still very low. However, he performed meritorious service in the Battle of Penghu in May this year and was promoted to platoon leader. And the second lieutenant Tang who took Sun Zhen to the registration review was

, he only joined the army half a year earlier than this platoon leader. His promotion to the position of second lieutenant and company commander was due to his outstanding performance in the two battles of Nanri Island in May and July last year. These vivid examples are all

It gives enough confidence to the new recruits who want to make progress, so that they are sure that they will have the same opportunity to get the same promotion opportunities if they stay.

Regardless of whether the Haihan militiamen are killed or injured, they will receive corresponding pensions. If they are discharged due to injury, there will also be follow-up arrangements to ensure that they have a stable income in the future. For example, they accept external employment as military consultants for allied countries, personal security consultants for wealthy businessmen and senior officials, and Or serve as grassroots cadres in the areas under Haihan's rule, such as village and town mayors. In addition, the military also has a large number of positions that can be used to arrange retired wounded veterans. For example, they are currently being gradually constructed in various garrison areas. Military workshops in the country do not manufacture weapons, but are mainly responsible for repairing them. People with experience in using weapons are undoubtedly excellent employee choices. They can quickly get on the job after only a short period of technical training.

There is no doubt that the protection that the Haihan Militia can provide to the soldiers has caused a big impact on these new recruits. This basically means that "as long as you don't die, Haihan will always support you." People can also receive perfect care. After the recruits entered the camp, they were taken to the newly built "Haihan Militia Heroes and Martyrs Memorial Tomb" on the island to visit and study. Here are some of the remains buried in the two battles of Nanri Island and Penghu last year. The bones of Haihan soldiers who died in the battle. The reason why there are only some is because the families of some of the fallen soldiers are in Hainan Island, and the bones have been transported back to be buried; others were missing in the naval battle, and the bones have been unable to be found.

Bringing these recruits to visit is not to stimulate their "patriotic enthusiasm", but to tell them that everyone who died fighting for Haihan will not be forgotten. Even if they are alone, someone will burn incense for them regularly after their death. Burn candles, pay tribute, and don't worry about dying on the battlefield with no one to take care of your aftermath.

The officer who led the team at that time once said to the recruits: "One day, some of us will die on the battlefield, and they will be buried in such a hero's grave and accept the worship of those who come after us. Don't worry about becoming a lonely ghost." , people will pay homage to the martyrs here for generations to come. Think about it, can you get such good treatment as a soldier elsewhere?"

Not to mention the treatment in terms of food, clothing and housing. They can see greasy meat every time, all the clothes they wear are distributed uniformly, and they have clean and tidy barracks to live in. Even if this kind of treatment is not comparable to their life in their hometown, at least it is better than their life in their hometown. It is far better than the hard days during the escape. Apart from the intensity of training, the recruits really don't have much to complain about the life in the military camp here.

Sun Zhen's strong physique and hard-working personality soon made him stand out from the newly trained recruits, and he was selected into the special reserve company trained by Qian Tiandun himself. Of course, it was said that it was Qian Tiandun himself. Responsible, but he is only responsible for supervising the training situation. Now that he has a high position, he no longer has to personally demonstrate and give instructions one by one. Naturally, other naturalized officers are responsible for implementing the training plan designated by him.

Since entering the reserve company, Sun Zhen feels that the amount of training has more than doubled than before, especially the physical training, which is simply life-threatening. He gets up around six o'clock every morning, gathers, and runs ten laps on the playground with weights. As a preparation before breakfast, the morning is full of combat skills training, such as climbing up and down hooks and ladders, climbing ropes, climbing over high and low wooden frames, mixed martial arts, etc., and the afternoon is shooting training, which also includes knowledge of various firearms. and get familiar with the training, and also learn basic firearms repair and maintenance skills. After dinner, there will be a ten-lap weight-bearing run as the end of the day's training. In addition, long-distance swimming training is arranged every three days, and there is a long-distance swimming training every seven days. A cross-country march training around the Penghu Islands, and a three- to five-day wilderness survival training every month on an uninhabited island in the Penghu Islands.

The queue training that they received when they first joined the army was relatively reduced after entering the reserve company. This is also an adjustment based on the special tactics of the special operations forces. In addition, the ideological study courses that must be conducted every night will be reduced and replaced.

There are various skill training courses, such as reconnaissance, communications, navigation, etc. Most of these more difficult courses are taught personally by Qian Tiandun and Chen Yixin in turns.

Although Sun Zhen was educated and literate, he could only understand a small part of these professional courses. When he first saw the military contour map, he was confused. However, he was not discouraged.

Write it down completely and then talk about it.

It has to be said that some talents are truly self-taught. Sun Zhen’s talent is survival skills in the wild. Although he can’t even read military maps, he can use various natural conditions to identify directions and rely on them.

A saber obtains food in the wild, builds temporary shelters by himself, and even uses the simple salt-sun method to obtain the salt needed for survival in the wild from seawater.

In the first wilderness survival training in October, Sun Zhen received the highest evaluation among the entire reserve company. Qian Tiandun even commented on Sun Zhen with the comment "Much better than when Takahashi Nan first came in."

Real performance. Others' wild survival training only lasted three days, but Sun Zhen still maintained an excellent mental and physical condition after five days, and even had some small food reserves through hunting. Although high

Qiao Nan was a little unconvinced by his boss's evaluation, but he also admitted that Sun Zhen seemed to have a certain talent in this area.

"I've liked playing outside since I was a child, I'm used to it!" After the training, when Sun Zhen was asked about his performance, he responded to Qian Tiandun's question with this simple answer.

This answer, which sounded a bit perfunctory, did not offend Qian Tiandun, but actually gained his favor. Qian Tiandun was a scout before, and when he received wilderness survival training, the instructor also spoke highly of him.

And his understanding of himself at that time was actually very similar to Sun Zhen now.

Some people can perform beyond ordinary people in certain aspects without any special training. Qian Tiandun believes that he is such a person, and now he has found a similar person.

"If the recruit training period is over and his tactical command assessment can reach excellence, then I will lead him in a small team." Qian Tiandun expressed his love for talents to Chen Yixin in a casual conversation.
