What is the first priority of the teaching brigade after it becomes an army? That's training.

Training is more important than combat, and this sentence is not said in vain.

In the early morning of the second day of the formation of the army, the soldiers in the barracks were still asleep, and after the new recruits were replenished this time, the barracks were distributed according to the establishment, and the veterans and recruits lived together.

Zhang Wei got up early in the morning when the soldiers had not yet gotten up, and under normal circumstances, the troops would get up at five o'clock to go out for exercises, and Zhang Wei meant that he was going to make a surprise attack today, because this was the first training for the recruits after entering the barracks, and he wanted to leave a "little impression" on them. ”

Zhang Wei was followed by four squadron leaders and engineer platoon leader He Jinhai and baggage platoon leader He Kun.

Zhang Wei looked at the watch on his wrist, there were still twenty minutes before the standard exercise time, Zhang Wei nodded at Qiu Wei beside him.

"Let's get started!" Qiu Wei blew the whistle, and the sharp whistle resounded throughout the barracks. As soon as the whistle sounded, the first to react must have been those veterans, and the veterans immediately jumped up from the bed, compared to them, the recruits were far behind, and when the whistle just sounded, they fell asleep on the bed.

"Assemble,!"

The squad leaders and platoon commanders, who were the first to get up, roamed around the barracks, urging the soldiers to get up.

"Go get your guns and equipment!"

Due to the addition of a lot of recruits, there was a lot of chaos in the process of getting up to get weapons, some recruits were confused and couldn't find their belts, and some ran around and ran away from their shoes.

The mistakes of the recruits significantly slowed down the movement, and by the time everyone was dressed, it took three or four minutes for the soldiers to rush to the gun store, teaching the brigade to store the weapons in platoons.

The gun hangar of each platoon was very close to the barracks, and the weapons and equipment of a platoon and the steel helmet equipment were neatly stacked in the gun hangar, or because of the recruits, there were many accidents in the process of rushing to the gun store, and all the soldiers put on their equipment in a very chaotic situation.

Putting on the equipment is the whole team gathering, the chaos is still chaos, the recruits mixed with the veterans have made a mess of the team, and in the noise, the whole team barely stands in a queue.

It took a total of 10 minutes.

Zhang Wei looked at the soldiers in the line with a gloomy face, and the squadron leaders and platoon commanders behind him did not look very good.

The soldiers below barely stood in a queue, but this queue was simply crooked, and many recruits even ran out of order and stood in the ranks of other departments.

The equipment on their bodies was not neatly dressed, some did not wear bayonet covers, and some forgot to take the dry food packet.

There is no shortage of veterans who make mistakes because of new recruits.

After about five or six minutes, the team quieted down, and Zhang Wei and the officers behind him looked directly at the team.

No one spoke, but the veterans below knew that the situation was not good, and an emergency assembly had done this virtue, and everyone had to be angry.

"An emergency meeting that took ten minutes seems to have been too comfortable for the brethren lately." Zhang Wei's face was not good, but his tone was extremely calm.

Assembled like this, he had already been mentally prepared, after all, more than 300 recruits had been replenished, and these recruits had no more than 5 bullets, and their training was not perfect.

It's not surprising that the team doesn't perform well in times of emergency, and the drag on recruits for such a long assembly time bears most of the blame.

"I know, there are a lot of recruits here, not counting today's events for the time being, from today onwards, I want you to be stronger every day than the day before! As long as there is progress, there will be no punishment!"

"If I haven't grown, then don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people."

It is impossible to do it overnight, Zhang Wei set them the goal of making progress every day, and the training must also pay attention to methods, if these recruits are forced, it will only cause a vicious circle, and even kill people.

Do you take the standard of veterans and ask those recruits who have just been added and are physically poor, is it realistic?

Zhang Wei has always been a general who should treat his soldiers as well as possible, and his training must be as scientific as possible, and the experience of later generations has also proved that barbaric training not only cannot greatly improve combat effectiveness, but will also cause serious damage to soldiers, but on the contrary reduce the original combat effectiveness.

After the lecture, the soldiers or mainly the recruits were vaccinated, and today's training officially began.

The squadron leaders and platoon commanders returned to their respective ranks, and while the squadron was formed, the number of people was counted, and after making sure that everything was correct, the troops were sent back to the gun magazines and barracks to pick up the scattered untapped equipment, such as bayonets and bullet belts.

Zhang Wei also followed the team, and the first training subject after the emergency assembly was a three-kilometer armed long-distance run.

The soldiers brought all the equipment they did not have with them, rifles, four grenades, a base number of bullets, bayonets, bags of dry food and water bottles.

The light machine gunners carried Czech secondary shooters with spare magazines.

All the personnel, including the baggage platoon, are the same, according to the combat standards are full of weapons and ammunition, and the soldiers of the heavy fire squadron carry the decomposed ZB37 heavy machine gun, compared with the 24 type, the weight of the ZB37 is much lighter, after a rough decomposition, the machine gun will be broken down into several parts, such as the gun carriage and ammunition box, and the machine gunners can carry the march completely.

The mortars of the heavy firearms company could not be carried over long distances, and the soldiers of the mortar platoon had to change into a full set of infantry weapons and equipment and move with the group.

"One-two-one, one-two-one, run!"

Amid the trumpets of the squadron leaders, the officers and men of the teaching brigade continued to speed up, carrying all the equipment on their backs and starting an armed long-distance run.

The soldiers had just gotten up and had a night's rest, their stomachs still empty, and it was a good time to train for long-distance running, both to train endurance and to boost their spirits.

Endurance can improve the overall abilities of soldiers on the battlefield, and sometimes the longer they hold out, the balance of victory will tilt in that direction.

Long-distance running is a test of endurance, and the exercise is physical strength, compared with the Japanese army, ** lacks all kinds of mobile means of transportation, and even the number of mules and horses is not as good as the Japanese army.

If you don't have a vehicle, you can only work on the soles of your feet and practice armed long-distance running.

Considering the uneven physical strength of recruits and veterans, the distance of three kilometers is no more and no less.

The sappers of each squadron and the brigade directly under it, the baggage platoon was led by their respective squadron leaders and squad leaders, and Zhang Wei ran with them next to the officers and soldiers, and as the battalion commander, he should set an example and boost the morale of the soldiers.

The battalion commander ran with them right on the side, and with this psychological environment, there was no doubt that the soldiers would run better.

The team that taught the brigade to run was neat at first, and after a kilometer, there was noticeable confusion and looseness in the team.

The teaching brigade is mixed with veterans and recruits, which is nothing at all for veterans, but the recruits ran a kilometer and obviously couldn't stand it, and they began to fall behind.

Some recruits slowed down in the middle of the ranks, directly blocking the soldiers behind, causing chaos in the ranks.

"Squadron leaders and platoon commanders, clear out the soldiers who have straggled!" Zhang Wei slowed down and shouted at the crowd.

Squadron leaders and platoon commanders run on the edge of the line to make it easier to control the team.
