Chapter 147: Be a squad leader again

Previous Chapter

In the training of moving and stopping, my ability has been further developed. Especially the positive walk, which is the most difficult and the most beautiful.

I practiced the swing arm kick 100 times in the rotation training team of the detachment in Duantang, Ningbo, and it was here that the mountain dew was revealed.

District captain Shen Minghua doesn't look at him as a freshly graduated student officer, but he still has a very good set of management and employment.

He observed me for two days and put me in the position of class leader. I'm sure this adjustment is all about strength.

And Wang Ming, who helped me improve this strength, was the deputy captain and instructor of the rotation training team at that time, and he was actually transferred to the command school and stood in the queue of instructors to help guide our training.

What's even more valuable is that when I came to our class to guide, he actually recognized me.

Since then, he has served as a teacher in the class queue and has come to take care of our class.

This person is very friendly, and he can't tell that his father was actually the director of the Border Guard Bureau of our provincial public security department at that time.

"Marching" and "stopping" are also part of a single freehand queue, and Instructor Yang is responsible for teaching us.

However, all the military instructors were on the training ground to guide us individually.

We are constantly impressed by the level of Instructor Yang's lectures: "A lot of knowledge and ability can be obtained from books, and only military actions can be engraved in the mind after thousands of repetitions, and become a habit and formation!" ”

Repeated hard practice, no shortcuts.

Instructor Yang's walking movements are steady and powerful, his walking momentum is like a rainbow, and his running and walking feet are windy, which really stunned us and watched.

"The basic footwork of marching is divided into unilateral step, forward step and running, and auxiliary footwork is divided into convenient step, step, moving step and salutation step."

"Stepping in unison is a common footwork for soldiers."

"The password is: step in unisonβ€”go."

"Essentials of movement: When you hear the command to walk in unison, take your left foot forward about 75 cm, land on the ground in the order of heel first and then the ball of your foot, and move the center of gravity of your body forward at the same time, and move your right foot in this way; The upper body is upright and slightly leaning forward; Fingers are gently held together, and the thumb is attached to the second segment of the index finger; The arms swing back and forth naturally, when swinging the arms forward, the elbows are bent, the forearms are naturally closed inward, the palms are slightly downward, the base of the thumb is aligned with the shirt button, and is about 5 cm higher than the bottom button of the spring and autumn clothes or winter clothes, and about 30 cm from the body; When swinging the arm back, the arm is naturally straightened, and the front side of the wrist is about 30 cm from the seam of the trousers. The marching speed is 116-122 steps per minute. ”

In the process of explaining and demonstrating, Instructor Yang gave us tips one by one about the mistakes that are easy to make when walking in unison.

"The swing arm is not in place."

"The body is oblique when you move forward."

"Take a figure-eight step, not in a straight line."

"Procrastinating, uneven pace."

Not to mention, the problems he talked about are really universal.

We don't have any other choice, just keep practicing, keep changing.

Sometimes the instructors will come to a student with a lot of problems and walk around, and help us correct one problem at a time.

The sweat on our bodies was almost dry, and many of the instructors were hoarse in their throats.

The hardest and most tiring thing to do is to walk in a positive way.

Listening to the instructors, Instructor Ding Naijiang and Instructor Qu Xiangjun served as the flag guards of the Nanjing Infantry School, and they were very good at walking forward, but these two did not teach the queue.

But in our opinion, Instructor Yang Yakui's walking movements are very beautiful.

"The positive step is mainly used in columns and other ceremonial occasions."

"The password is: Walk - go."

When I hear the command to walk in a positive step, kick the left foot forward about 75 cm, the legs should be straight, the toes should be pressed down, the soles of the feet should be parallel to the ground, about 25 cm from the ground, and the whole soles of the feet should be touched on the ground with appropriate force, and at the same time, the center of gravity of the body should be moved forward, and the right foot should follow this method; The upper body is upright and slightly leaning forward; Fingers are gently clenched, and the thumb is extended and attached to the second segment of the index finger; When swinging the arm forward, the elbow is bent, the forearm is slightly horizontal, the palm is slightly downward, and the lower edge of the wrist is about 15 cm higher than the bottom button of the spring and autumn clothes or winter clothes (when wearing summer clothes and sailor uniforms, about 15 cm above the center of the inner belt buckle; When wearing a training uniform, it is about 10 cm above the center of the outer belt buckle) and about 10 cm from the body; When swinging the arm back, the left palm is to the right, the right palm is to the left, and the front of the wrist is about 30 cm away from the seam of the trousers. The marching speed is 110-116 steps per minute. β€œ

His lecture demonstration was done in one go, a bit like the command action of the Internet celebrity traffic police at the crossroads. Especially in the step-by-step exercises, each hand and foot movement seems to be broken down into slow motion, but it is fixed and positioned, which is super beautiful.

But if you actually practice, it's very hard.

The practice of walking is very fine, first swing the arm exercise, stand in place and maintain an upright posture, and repeatedly feel the height of the arm and the position of the hand bowl with the two hands.

"Swing arm exercise one, two, one, two..."

From then on, my loud commands rang out in the corner of the training ground.

Then there is the kicking, which is even more difficult.

"The kick should be fast and powerful, and the kick should be positioned at a fixed point."

"Landing must be ruthless. With the elastic force of the soles of your feet hitting the ground, you can move forward alternately. ”

I pass on my training experience to everyone, and I keep demonstrating to everyone.

Although the soles of my feet were red, swollen and painful, I felt a sense of accomplishment.

I found the feeling I had when I was a squad leader at the police station.

From then on, almost no one in the class called me by my name, and they all started calling me "class leader". Later, when I learned English, I was called "mo".

ito

”。

It wasn't until the last semester that I took turns to be the class president, and I began to change my words, learning the names of my classmates in other classes, and calling me by name or "Tao".

In order to unify the forward steps in the class, I summarized the coherent practice method I have experienced in a few sentences:

"Two fast and one slightly slow, the leg does not move, the arm swing should be natural, and the kick should be powerful."

The district captain shared my experience during the district team drill and asked me to demonstrate and explain to everyone.

"Swing arms and kicks faster, change arms a little slower. Keep your arms still when your legs hit the ground, and swing your arms quickly when you want to kick them out. ”

I explained and demonstrated, and I really looked like a little teacher.

Later, during the exercise, our district team's coordination and sense of rhythm were praised many times.

I feel that I still have a little bit of credit, and I also rely on the district captain to use the right person.

Not only did I learn one step ahead of everyone in the queue action, but I was also very strict in management, although I was also a student, but I criticized people with an iron face and selflessness, no matter how good the relationship was, if I was loose and straddling during training, I would never be merciless.

In fact, I was also forced out, because we were always in the first class, and the district captain had very high requirements for us.

"You are the benchmark class, and you affect the image of the whole team."

The district captain often reminds us of this.

"Ah Tao, you were a little fierce at that time!"

Ye Ping, who was in the same class, was later assigned to Zhoushan and told me this in private.

In fact, when I am in the command position, I will stretch my face and no one will recognize me. Usually very easy-going with everyone.

But it's also good because the power I made in training can help me manage these people with the same qualifications.
