The training begins with a theory session.

This is somewhat different from the domestic training model of new recruits at this time...... But then again, domestic training of recruits is basically not called training, it is called "learning to shoot guns", as long as you can shoot guns, you can almost go to the battlefield.

In Sun Babbeng's training base, hundreds of tables and chairs were neatly placed in each classroom, a blackboard was in the middle, and each person was given a textbook.

At the beginning, it was okay, because the beginning of the talk was about the knowledge of rifle maintenance, the soldiers were all veterans, plus the domestic equipment was made in all countries, Soviet guns, German guns, British guns, etc.

In fact, this is mainly because the M1 Garand rifle is relatively safe, if it is like the M16, if it can't make a sound if you just get into a little dust, then the fighters are afraid and can't deal with it.

The American instructor was also very satisfied with the reaction of the soldiers, he was originally worried that the language barrier would affect the teaching effect if he needed to translate and paraphrase it, so he also randomly ordered two soldiers to go up with some disbelief, and the result was that the rifle was disassembled and reloaded smoothly.

The instructor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, but when he talked about ballistics next, it was troublesome...... The ballistics of bullets and shells are parabolas, so they need a lot of ideas, theorems, formulas, and so on.

The American instructor was also a little patient, and the soldiers would not repeat it, and then asked stupidly: "Do you understand?" ”

The fighters were still stunned and did not react at all, and the instructor could only sigh. Shaking his head and wailing, "Godsaveme! ”

This knowledge is not difficult for Zhang Chi, he learned it in high school, didn't he? How can I say that I am also a college student in modern times, and if I don't understand this theorem or anything, then the books of the past few decades are not in vain...... But in fact, this knowledge has long been returned to the teacher, and he recalled it as soon as the American instructor said that just now.

Zhang Chi didn't want to come out, but he couldn't help it when he saw the American instructor walking around on the podium, so he got up and said to the instructor: "Sir, can you let me try?" ”

"Of course!" The American instructor was at a loss, and when he saw that a soldier took the initiative to ask for help, there was naturally no reason to refuse.

Zhang Chi stepped onto the podium. He said, "Brethren, it's actually very simple...... This is to tell you how the bullet flies after it is discharged, and the bullet has weight, and it will sink as it flies...... So when it hits the target, the bullet tends to sink a little lower! ”

"Oh! Earlier, ......" Zhang Chi said this, and the soldiers understood.

"Yankee, that's gravity and what kind of acceleration, it's been like this for a long time!"

"It's better than what the company commander said!"

……

As soon as the American instructor saw that there was a reaction, he immediately drove the interpreter aside for Zhang Chi to explain.

So Zhang Chi used popular terms, such as acceleration, time, and so on, to tell the soldiers in words such as fast and slow. Even later, they simply asked them to memorize which numbers, add and multiply them, and they can get how much the bullet will deviate.

It was still a bit difficult, but the fighters showed a lot of interest. So soon there was a craze of learning in the classroom, and the American instructor couldn't stop nodding and praising repeatedly: "Good!" ”

But in this way, Zhang Chi was busy...... The reason is that this situation also exists in other classrooms, and various American instructors have a lot of headaches for students who can't read a few languages below. In addition, the English translation is not good and there are always mistakes, as soon as they heard that Zhang Chi could solve the problem smoothly, they all came to pull Zhang Chi to help.

You must know that this classroom is based on a company. More than 9,000 people mean that there are 80 or 90 classrooms, and the knowledge taught in each classroom is not the same, some are artillerymen, some are tank soldiers, and they are only busy moving around the barracks.

In the end, Zhang Chi saw that this was not a solution, so he took out some of the students with strong learning ability and better comprehension ability, taught them, and then let them disperse to various classes to help American instructors teach.

It was not difficult to do this, mainly because most of the recruits who joined later were literate and intellectual youth...... This is Stilwell's request to Chiang Kai-shek, this is mainly to enable the troops to learn military knowledge faster and better, so most of the soldiers are junior high school students or above, and there are even college students.

Of course, there were not so many junior high and high school students in those years, and young intellectuals were not necessarily willing to come to Burma to serve as soldiers and fight, so they really couldn't make up for this number later, even those who had gone to elementary school.

But no matter what, I always learned multiplication in elementary school, so it was still easier to teach than a soldier who didn't know a single word.

After tossing and turning like this for a few days, most of the Chinese officers and soldiers miraculously passed the theoretical examination set by the American instructors, which made the American instructors feel a little unimaginable.

However, Zhang Chi knew that there was nothing strange about this.

This is partly because if you don't pass the test, you will be kicked out of the army...... In this regard, Stilwell said from the beginning that no matter who he was, no matter what he had done before, if he did not meet the requirements in the next various trainings, then he was sorry, and he could only leave the base and return home on a transport plane.

Although it has always been the dream of the soldiers of the expeditionary force to return to China and reunite with their families, it would be a shame for them to return home in this way.

On the other hand, it is the soldiers who know that this knowledge is related to the fight to the death on the battlefield.

As the hooligan said: "I used to shoot guns by feeling, but I didn't know that there was so much truth in this, and it really felt like that when the Yankees said that......"

Therefore, in order to be able to have a little more chance of survival on the battlefield, in order to be able to defeat the Japanese army, in order to be able to return to their hometown and reunite with their relatives as soon as possible, and in order to be able to avenge their relatives and comrades-in-arms...... All of this requires the fighters to learn this knowledge.

As a result, even if some fighters can't even multiply, they try their best to gnaw down these problems step by step. (To be continued.) )
