As soon as Zhang Chi said this, Wang Mazi lost his voice.

Wang Mazi knew that although the situation Zhang Chi said was not common, the battlefield was inaccurate, and if he really came at that moment, it would be too late to regret it. What's more, this subject is still swimming, such as swimming at night...... A few unqualified people will indeed have a great impact on the troops.

"Secondly!" Zhang Chi continued: "If these unqualified people are not eliminated, does it mean that everyone can not be eliminated? Is it necessary for the other fighters to spare no effort in training? Anyway, it's the same if you practice well or not, and you won't be eliminated, and there's no pressure at all...... This would have a very bad effect on the whole army! ”

After being silent for a long time, Wang Mazi nodded sullenly: "You're right, then what can you do?" Send them home?! ”

Of course, it is impossible to send them back to China, and the Yankees' warships and planes will not make a special trip for these 20 or so people, unless there is a stop-by.

So Zhang Chi replied: "Arrange them to non-combat units!" Like a cooking class or something. ”

"Hmm!" Wang Mazi agreed.

In fact, Wang Mazi just didn't want to drive these soldiers back to China...... These soldiers who came out to fight came with the idea of fighting all the way to the devil's lair, otherwise who would want to leave their hometown so far to this ghost place! And now you're going to drive them back?! That's not interesting, isn't it?

From this point of view, Wang Mazi is still very emotional.

This can also be said to be a difference between the Chinese army and the American army...... To put it simply, the commander is kind to his subordinates and will be sympathetic to his subordinates, and his subordinates will be willing to obey the orders of his superiors.

Even Zhang Chi's group seat is no exception...... Zhang Chi can have such great prestige in the army, a large part of the reason is that Zhang Chi has dragged the troops out of danger again and again, and many soldiers remember Zhang Chi's "life-saving grace"!

As for American officers, of course, they also have feelings, but they are more inclined to distinguish between public and private, and pay more attention to systems, military law, orders, and so on.

For example, if there are more than 20 people in the new 1st Division who are not qualified, if it is in the US army, there is no room for consideration at all, and it will be eliminated directly.

This may also be the reason why Stilwell tried to use American officers to control the expeditionary force when the expeditionary force was in Burma, but failed...... The American officer's approach seems more in line with modern principles of military management, but it is not suitable for the Chinese military of this era.

After the swimming training, the landing coordination and airborne subjects were carried out at the same time.

The problem of landing coordination is not a big problem for the Chinese Expeditionary Force, after all, the Chinese army has long experienced the tactical training of the various arms of the US military, and the landing coordination is actually about the same as adding a navy to the coordinated arms.

Of course, modern landing operations are much more complicated, and this is mainly because landing operations are characterized by short time, high intensity, large consumption of materials and equipment, high requirements for many units that need support, and many uncertain factors.

But at this time...... Even a big country like the United States does not yet have the idea of "amphibious operations," and its tactics are not perfect, and landing operations are almost like using troop carriers under the cover of firepower from warships and aviation, and then there is the problem of infantry and land warfare.

So this is a matter of training for the expeditionary force for a period of time and then practicing several times.

The difficult part is airborne training, which is completely alien to the fighters.

Of course, it is impossible to jump down from an airplane as soon as you get into an airplane...... The United States does have this condition, but the results of such training are not necessarily good, and it is also very dangerous.

The initial training is still on the ground, first learn the basics, such as folding methods, how to check the parachute, how to bring good equipment, how to deal with emergencies, etc., and then use a few ropes to simulate a parachute, pull it up on a shelf and then quickly lower it, and learn the correct movement when landing on the ground over and over again.

For this training method, the fighters felt very new, so they practiced happily as if they were finished with a game, and some fighters hung on the rope and kept posing for a few Chinese kung fu poses, even if the American instructor shouted and scolded it to no avail.

This is not to blame on the Chinese soldiers, considering that most of them did not know what toys were until this time, and joined the army at a young age...... At this time, it was common for Chinese to become soldiers in their teens, they became soldiers prematurely, and they took on the burden that only adults could carry too early, and what they paid was youth and innocence, and this parachute training gave them a chance to regain their childhood.

This led some Chinese soldiers to voluntarily sacrifice their rest time to train at a simulated airborne field...... To be honest, it's a bit like bungee jumping played by modern people, the difference is that bungee jumping does not land on the ground, while parachute training does have ground.

Brigadier General Wilhelm came to see the Chinese army several times when it was training, but he was clearly not satisfied with the state of training of the Chinese army.

The dissatisfaction here does not refer to the lack of enthusiasm or the slow progress of the Chinese army's training. On the contrary, it was precisely because the Chinese troops were so good that they always completed their training ahead of schedule that Brigadier General William, who had intended to look good on the Chinese troops, was disappointed.

Evans even secretly told Brigadier General William: "General, we have increased the intensity of training, but the Chinese troops can still complete it easily!" ”

"This shows that the intensity is not strong enough!" Brigadier General William said with an unhappy face.

"But......" Evans said nothing.

Because Evans felt that if he increased the intensity, it would be unnecessary or counterproductive, and it could even be said to be inhumane.

But since Brigadier General Wilhelm said so, Evans intends to continue to intensify the intensity in the future until the Chinese army is exhausted.

However, at this moment, a messenger ran to Brigadier General Wilhelm and reported: "General, a fire suddenly broke out in the forest, and there are reports of Japanese planes being found!" ”

"What?" Hearing this, Brigadier General William couldn't help but be stunned: "Japanese planes? In Rabaul? That's impossible! ”

This is not to blame Brigadier General William for not believing it, you must know that at this time Rabaul not only had fighters and destroyers patrolling in all directions, but also equipped with sea-to-air radars, if there were Japanese fighters approaching, it would not have been possible until now.
