My Military Career in a Parallel World

This was not the first time that Jiang Chen and his team had been exposed to assassination training, but they were still unable to meet Li Gang's requirements. It was not a problem with the movements, but a lack of momentum.

This is not only true for assassination training, but similar problems also occur when practicing military boxing.

To forge a sword, one must first forge his spirit; to train soldiers, one must first train their courage.

Compared with military boxing, directly using the bayonet can obviously better train and stimulate the bloodiness and courage of the recruits.

Fighting in close combat, drawing swords when encountering the enemy, and the brave winning when two encounters in a narrow road, this has always been the purpose and spirit of the 228th Regiment.

Even new recruits must have the courage to draw their swords.

Stab, chop, hit...

At Li Gang's command, they were performed one by one.

"Stop and watch what I do!"

Calling for everyone to stop, Li Gang installed a bayonet on his Type 81 rifle, and explained the key points of the movements to the recruits while demonstrating.

"kill!!!"

Swish~ Li Gang thrust the Type 81 rifle in his hand forward suddenly, and the bayonet in front of him cut through the air, making a slight sound of breaking through the air.

“The main killing method of the straight stab is to attack in a straight line, relying on the depth of the stab to kill the enemy!

You have all watched TV dramas, and you should have heard that the only way to defeat martial arts is to be fast. The same is true for assassination, you must move quickly!"

brush~

Li Gang was talking while his hands kept moving.

"Chopping is a horizontal attack, relying on the sharpness of the bayonet to kill the enemy!"

It was clearly the same move, but the feeling when Li Gang used it was completely different from when they used it.

Each of Li Gang's moves is extremely powerful and his movements are extremely simple.

"In addition to speed, assassination also requires the action to be as efficient and concise as possible. The simpler the action, the faster the speed will be. The two complement each other.

In addition to the saying "speed is everything", I would also like to add that "simple is everything!"

Li Gang was not talking nonsense. The larger and more fancy the movements were, the slower the speed would naturally be, and the longer the enemy had to react.

vice versa.

Whether in reality or in fiction, as long as the moves require speed, the simpler the better.

For example, the well-known Inch Punch and Half-Step Collapse Punch, the movements are extremely simple, and the amplitude is very, very small.

However, the simple movements do not mean that they are easy to learn.

"Strike and stab. This move is mainly used when the enemy is heavily defended!"

As he spoke, Li Gang's hand movements changed again.

"Just like the military boxing I taught you before, when facing different targets and different situations, you must learn to adapt on the spot and look for opportunities to strike a fatal blow between offense and defense!"

After demonstrating several times, Li Gang removed the bayonet from the muzzle of his gun, waved to Jiang Chen in the team and said, "It's just talk. Jiang Chen, go and pass out the wooden spikes over there to them. Practice in pairs!"

"Yes!" Jiang Chen agreed and called Zhang Meng next to him to join him.

After sending out the wooden spikes, Li Gang did not ask everyone to start sparring directly. Instead, he came to the center of the field with a wooden spike in his hand and said, "Jiang Chen, come here."

"Yes!"

"Although the wooden thorns are wrapped with cloth, it still hurts when they poke you, so be prepared to get hurt!"

Everyone was quite excited at first, but after hearing Li Gang's words, they all reacted.

Yes, although the wooden spike in my hand is not a real bayonet and is covered with cloth, if it really stabs me...

Chu Fei subconsciously touched his chest and foolishly tried the wooden thorn. He didn't even need to use much force to know that it would be unpleasant to be stabbed by this thing.

You probably won't get injured, but bruises all over your body are inevitable.

"Jiang Chen, haven't you always wanted to practice with me? Today I will fulfill your wish!"

As he spoke, Li Gang raised the wooden spike in his hand and pointed the spear head wrapped in green cloth at Jiang Chen.

"Ah?!" Jiang Chen was stunned and wanted to shout, I'm talking about sparring, I'm talking about military boxing, not bayonet fighting, you bastard!

However, assassination is also good. Although there are few scenarios where bayonets can be used in reality, then again, who would complain about having too many skills?

It is always good to have many skills. With the idea that learning more is better, Jiang Chen came to the field holding a wooden spike and imitated Li Gang's preparation for assassination.

"Haha, don't worry, I will be very measured in my attack. I guarantee that you will be in excruciating pain, but there will be no marks on your body!" Li Gang's face was filled with smiles, but his words made Jiang Chen feel a chill on his back.

However, he was not afraid, but instead felt his blood boiling.

During this period, Jiang Chen was not idle. He would review everything he had learned in the recruit company at least once every night. While ensuring that his level would not decline, he was also trying his best to find new breakthroughs.

Prepare in advance for the subsequent recruit assessment.

Jiang Chen had already received the news from Li Gang. In the past, any recruit who could score fifty rings in the assessment would be awarded a third-class merit. Later, perhaps because it was felt that it was a bit inappropriate to give a third-class merit so easily, the condition was changed to the recruit who ranked first in the assessment.

Now, as the army's review of the awarding of merits becomes increasingly strict, it is basically impossible for new recruits to get third-class merit.

but……

There are exceptions to everything. In order to stimulate the potential of new recruits and to give new recruits who are interested in developing in the army a broader prospect.

The recruit company still retains the way to obtain third-class merit.

As for the conditions, they are also very simple. All assessment items need to reach excellent or above. In addition, at least three items must have outstanding performances.

As for what is the standard of being brilliant...

For example, in live-fire shooting, you can get a full score of fifty rings; or in grenade throwing, you can throw it more than fifty meters away.

Exceeding the excellence line is just passing. At least, one must reach the level of an average veteran or even exceed it to be considered an outstanding performance.

Since the standard for meritorious service was set, there have been very few recruits who can receive third-class merit during their new training, and sometimes they may not receive one for several years.

The most recent person to receive the third-class merit at the graduation ceremony for new recruits was Jiang Zhou, a new recruit trained by Li Gang two years ago.

Otherwise, Jiang Zhou would not have been so popular back then, attracting three battalion commanders and the chief of staff to personally intervene.

Although Jiang Chen already has a second-class merit, the same thing applies: who would complain about having too many medals on their chest?

If possible, Jiang Chen also wanted to be like the seniors he saw on TV in his previous life, with medals of honor hanging from the chest to the hem of his clothes.

……

Jiang Chen practiced assassination a lot in his dreams, and in order to get the feeling of actual combat, he once again found the knife-wielding gangster named Zhao Lei.

Today, this criminal who was sentenced to fifteen years in prison for a long list of crimes including robbery, intentional injury, kidnapping, etc. has completely become a "little monster" that Jiang Chen uses to gain practical experience.

Whenever he needed to practice something practical, Jiang Chen would subconsciously go to this big brother to try it out.

Military boxing, assassination... Jiang Chen tried them all one by one.

It was precisely because of such frequent dungeon visits to gain experience that Jiang Chen discovered a new function of the dream space.

If this were in reality, Jiang Chen would have seen blood so frequently, and all of it was done with real guns and knives, and he would have killed at least dozens of people.

Even with the help of a professional counselor and firm belief, psychological problems are bound to arise.

As early as the first time he saw life slipping away in front of his eyes, Jiang Chen had been worried about it, and even wanted to give up the idea of ​​improving his practical ability in this way.

However, after leaving the dream space, Jiang Chen suddenly realized that the impact of this incident on him did not seem to be as serious as he had imagined.

He did not become indifferent to life because of this, nor did he develop any psychological problems such as violent tendencies.

Jiang Chen thought about it seriously and felt that maybe the name he gave to the golden finger was right.

Dream space, in addition to space there is also dream.

No matter how bloody or dangerous things happen in dreams, they will not affect people in reality.

It's all just a dream of yours.

Although he didn't know if this was true, Jiang Chen felt that he was right.

Subsequent developments also verified his guess.

After getting this result, Jiang Chen completely let go of all the shackles, and Zhao Lei became his little monster for gaining experience. Whenever he learned new skills related to actual combat in the recruit company, he would subconsciously look for Zhao Lei to try them out, so as to hone his practical skills.

But that's all.

Zhao Lei is just an ordinary person after all. Although he is a bit ruthless, as long as he overcomes the psychological barriers and takes the first step, it is not difficult to defeat his opponent.

The monsters in the Novice Village are far from satisfying his needs for gaining experience. Jiang Chen is now in urgent need of a new dungeon and a sparring partner.

Therefore, squad leader Li Gang naturally became his target.

However, Jiang Chen would definitely not use all the tricks on him like he did to Zhao Lei. Although it was a dream and had nothing to do with reality, Jiang Chen still had to have his bottom line as a soldier.

Moreover, with Li Gang's strength, if a real fight breaks out, he is no match for his opponent with his current strength.

Jiang Chen treated Zhao Lei as a dungeon monster in the game, and treated Li Gang as a "wooden stake", an NPC in the training ground, who was perfect for honing his skills.

With this mentality, the two began to train in stabbing.

Although Jiang Chen thought he had mastered the assassination techniques taught by Li Gang, when they actually fought, he realized how big the gap between them was.

On the first day of the fight, Li Gang just launched a simple thrust, but he couldn't defend himself and was stabbed in the thigh by the wooden spike of the cloth-wrapped spear.

Just when his thigh was numb from being stabbed, Li Gang raised the tail of the wooden spike and hit his arm hard. Jiang Chen's palm holding the wooden spike softened and one end of the wooden spike fell directly to the ground.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen felt a flash before his eyes, and then he was hit hard in the chest. Waves of pain hit his heart. Jiang Chen felt that he was having difficulty breathing, and he kept coughing.

In fact, Li Gang was also surprised by Jiang Chen's performance.

Even though he defeated the opponent in just a few moves, Li Gang could see that Jiang Chen was not as weak as he appeared.

Whether it was the initial posture or the subconscious reactions during the sparring, Jiang Chen was somewhat beyond his expectations.

Even when they first started fighting, Jiang Chen gave him a sense of crisis, which made him ignore Jiang Chen's status as a rookie and subconsciously use all his strength.

Li Gang was also a little surprised by Jiang Chen's reaction after being attacked.

If it were any other recruit, and they were hit so hard right at the beginning of their training, let alone standing still and continuing to fight, it would be very impressive if they could not cry out in pain.

Not to mention, when Jiang Chen was hit hard on the thigh, the wooden spike in his hand was still looking for an opportunity to attack.

If Li Gang had not dodged quickly, when the wooden spike in his hand hit Jiang Chen's thigh, his shoulder would have been hit hard.

It was for this reason that Li Gang gave up his original idea of ​​slowly demonstrating the essentials of sparring to the recruits, and subconsciously chose the fastest way to end the fight, using rapid and continuous attacks to end the sparring directly.

"Are you okay?" Li Gang came to his senses and hurried forward to ask.

"Cough cough cough... It's okay, squad leader, I just... I choked a little, it will be fine after a while." Jiang Chen said while rubbing his numb chest.

"Well, I'm glad you're okay. More sweat during training means less blood during battle. Don't be afraid of pain, and don't be afraid of getting hurt. All the efforts you make now may save your lives when you are really in danger!"

On the other side, under the shade of a tree beside the training ground, Lei Zhenjun and Ge Hongtao were also paying attention to the situation on the training ground.

The entire process of the fight between Jiang Chen and Li Gang was also seen by the two of them.

"Well, this Jiang Chen is really good, he has a ruthless side, I like him!" Lei Zhenjun was holding the telescope and smiling so hard that he could hardly close his mouth.

Lei Zhenjun is no ordinary person as he can be the battalion commander of the reconnaissance battalion.

He was also an officer who worked his way up from the grassroots to become a major and battalion commander. Although his physical fitness had declined due to staying in the office for a long time, his experience and vision had not diminished in the slightest, but had become even more vicious.

He saw Jiang Chen's reaction just now.

If the opponent was not Li Gang, a top soldier who ranked among the top in the reconnaissance battalion, but a veteran from any other ordinary company, he would have probably been hit by now.

Moreover, because a bystander sees things more clearly, Lei Zhenjun sees things much more clearly than Li Gang, an eyewitness.

If Jiang Chen's stab just now had successfully hit the target, he would surely be faced with continuous attacks one after another.

Reality is not novels or martial arts movies, let alone games.

The character does not have a so-called health bar, nor does he have any internal force to relieve your injuries.

In close combat, in many cases, whether you can seize the initiative determines the final outcome of the battle.

Especially in a one-on-one situation, as long as you can cause damage to your opponent first, things will be much easier afterwards.

Rely on time to slowly wear down and use bleeding tactics to make the opponent lose a lot of blood, which will slow down his body reactions and movements.

Just like a pack of wolves hunting a buffalo, they constantly inflict new injuries on their opponents, and eventually the enemy falls without a single drop of blood...
