Chapter 342 "Liu Zhiye Training Method"

"Hold the red flag and strive to become a first-class camp!"

"Command the entire army with Xxx thoughts!"

"Intensify training and always be prepared!"

"Charge bravely, and draw blood with your bayonet!"

"First, do not fear hardship, second, do not fear death, strengthen war preparedness, and defend the motherland..."

"........."

Such slogans can be seen everywhere in the Second Division.

After some twists and turns in the early stages of its reorganization, the Second Guard Division is now back on track, with all its members engaged in intensive and orderly training.

Although the personnel of the Second Guard Division come from all over the world and different units, their individual qualities are first-class. Once the command level is in place, they will quickly gather into a powerful fighting force.

The individual qualities of the People's Liberation Army during this period were very strong. Many soldiers in the PLA had come from the Korean War and even the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. They may not have undergone too much rigorous and scientific training back then, but they all had considerable practical experience.

Another reason is that during this period, everyone in the Xia Kingdom was a soldier.

At the end of this year, a nationwide military competition was organized. PLA soldiers from various military commands across the country and militia soldiers from various regions gathered in Beijing to demonstrate our army's capabilities and skills with their strong strength.

At a national martial arts competition held at the Western Suburbs Shooting Range, soldiers from a certain reconnaissance company climbed up walls and climbed up a three-story building quickly using bamboo poles and ropes.

Some sharpshooters fired 40 bullets in 40 seconds, hitting the bull's eye of the target.

These skills, which seem exaggerated and unrealistic, are the true portrayal of the Xia soldiers during this period.

In this era of national preparation for war, the selection criteria for the People's Liberation Army soldiers are extremely strict. Their qualities are naturally outstanding and they can be called iron-clad tough guys.

In addition, in military training, the troops have developed many techniques and training methods to train soldiers based on previous combat experience.

For example, in the prone shooting subject, in order to hone the soldiers' will, they would find a training ground full of gravel. Usually after a training session, their elbows and palms would be covered in blood.

For example, when training in shooting events, soldiers are required to complete the aiming and stimulating linkage process in one go, turning the shooting action into an instinct. Once they get the gun and see the enemy, they can raise the gun and shoot without any thought.

The Xia Kingdom during this period was extremely poor.

From the late Qing Dynasty to the founding of the People's Republic of China, after more than a century of colonization by foreign powers, warlord fighting, resistance to aggression, and wars of unification, the vast land of China has long been scarred and devastated.

Fortunately, there was the great savior of hundreds of millions of people - the Communist Party of China. Under its leadership, the people united as one and finally overthrew the "three mountains" that were pressing on their heads.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, we helped friendly countries win the anti-aggression war. After that, we encountered natural disasters for several consecutive years, but the country developed better and better.

But the foundation is too weak and money is needed in every aspect.

Soldiers were reluctant to use bullets for training on weekdays. At that time, a bullet cost 2 cents. In Shanghai, one of the most prosperous cities in the country at that time, the betrothal gift for an ordinary family was only 4 yuan.

The average annual income of all workers in the country is only 528 yuan, which is the price of 2640 rounds of bullets.

It would be difficult to fully grow up a new recruit if these bullets were fed to him, let alone give them to veterans who are training rapid shooting?
Currently, the Xia People's Liberation Army soldiers train with blank guns most of the time, constantly practicing aiming and shooting. Even with such training, many sharpshooters have emerged.

Just like the sharpshooter mentioned at the beginning, it only takes him about 150-40 seconds from lying down to shooting to hitting all 40 half-body targets at a distance of 60 meters. During this period, he needs to change orders three times.

His accuracy rate is 1%, which means that if a class of enemies rushes towards him, he can kill them all in a maximum of one minute.

Of course, this was also due to the successful development of new weapons at the time. The semi-automatic rifle used by this sharpshooter was the first semi-automatic rifle to be standardly equipped in Xia State.

This Type 56 semi-automatic rifle has high shooting accuracy, great lethality, and is relatively simple to manufacture, so it can be equipped on a large scale. After the Xia Army completed its full deployment in 1963, it continued to use it until 1985 when it announced its withdrawal.

In this competition, in addition to the soldiers' superb skills and weapons iterations, the Xia Army also demonstrated the development and promotion of a new training method.

This training method is called "Liu Zhiye Teaching Method". It was invented by Liu Zhiye's previous life, a platoon leader named Guo Xingfu in the mid-1960s, during daily training.

To be honest, since Liu Zhiye activated his military skills, he has had more advanced training methods in his mind, but they are not in line with national conditions and the current development of society.

Although there is no platoon leader named Guo Xingfu in this life, the training methods he summarized are also suitable for the current Xia country troops and can be carried forward.

Liu Zhiye's method of training soldiers, which was summarized by Guo Xingfu in his previous life, was to start from the difficult and strict level, and be very strict. After the training, he would organize the soldiers to discuss together to see if there were any mistakes in the training and what areas needed improvement.

This kind of training method undoubtedly increased the difficulty of training while also stimulating the soldiers' passion for training. The originally overly harsh combat training gradually became interesting in the process of giving each other advice.

This enabled Liu Zhiye's soldiers to rapidly improve their combat skills and technical skills, and also attracted the attention of their superiors.

After discovering the advantages of this training method, the Beijing Garrison District immediately promoted it across the board and allowed all soldiers in the military region to learn it.

Afterwards, General Liu from the General Staff went to the Second Division Headquarters in Liujiazhuang to personally examine the soldiers trained in this way.

The result greatly surprised the commander. After many attempts, changes and iterations of this training method in the Beijing Military Region, the soldiers trained were much stronger in all aspects than the previous training methods.

The Xia Kingdom is currently in the development stage, and there are still many... Therefore, it was decided to take advantage of the promotion of the "Liu Zhiye Training Method" to organize a national competition.

In this way, a "training fever" swept across the country at the end of 64.

In the big competition at the end of the year, the Second Guard Division showed great importance. The division leaders went to various units to ensure the smooth progress of various preparations.

Liu Zhiye was in charge of the military training of the Fourth Regiment at the time. He focused on the regiment's reconnaissance company, also known as the "Night Tiger Company."

The title of "Night Tiger Company" comes from the extremely high requirements of its regiment's reconnaissance company for night combat. Among the reconnaissance companies of many regiments of the Second Division, the reconnaissance company of the Fourth Regiment is particularly young.

The reconnaissance company of the Fourth Regiment was reorganized from part of the special police battalion of the former Public Security Corps and is a new army.

Compared with those reconnaissance companies with brilliant achievements, the reconnaissance company of the Fourth Regiment is still relatively green. Therefore, Liu Zhiye decided to concentrate his strength and focus on this area, striving to stand out in the upcoming competition and make a splash.

As mentioned earlier, the Xia army attached great importance to night battles.

From the Anti-Japanese War, to the War of Liberation, and then to the later War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the Xia army had very high requirements for night combat capabilities.

At first, the team had a small number of people and poor equipment. If they wanted to win the battle, they had to take the enemy by surprise, which gave them the option of fighting at night.

Later, night combat became the strong point of the Xia army, and it indeed achieved very good results in many battles. It even made the Japanese army suffer terribly during the War to Resist Japanese Aggression and Aid Korea, and the effectiveness of aircraft and artillery was greatly suppressed.

Therefore, this fine tradition was preserved. In the 60s, every PLA army regiment had a "Night Tiger Company", which were the spearhead troops in night battles.

The night combat training of the Xia People's Liberation Army is also divided into many subjects, each targeting different situations.

For example, what should you do if the other party uses flares or signal flares; what should you do if the other party lights a bonfire; you also need to simulate night battles in windy and rainy weather, or night battles when the enemy is bombing at night.

It can be said that in terms of night combat training, the current PLA is even more rigorous and serious than daytime training. Being able to run and fight is the night combat standard of the Xiaguo PLA, and it is also a true portrayal of the PLA during night combat.

In a battle between armies, as long as I can hit you and you can't hit me, I will have the advantage. This is actually also a military strategy. It looks simple, but it is actually very useful.

In addition to these strategies, the "three-three tactics" that have been passed down for many years also allowed the Xia Kingdom's People's Liberation Army to achieve good results under disadvantageous circumstances.

This tactic divides a class into three teams, each responsible for the tasks of attack, cover and support. It can ensure the maximum manpower under the enemy's heavy firepower and break into the enemy's position. It is flexible and can adapt to a variety of situations.

During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, this tactic, together with night combat technology, dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of the US Army, allowing the Xia Army to achieve impressive results despite being backward in all aspects of equipment.

In fact, many tactics of the Xiaguo Volunteer Army at that time seemed simple and easy to understand, but in fact they were amazingly effective, especially on the battlefield, when both the enemy and us were on edge. Whether it was a night attack, infiltration tactics, or a three-three system where one team was to contain, one team was to attack, and one team was to provide cover, they could catch the enemy off guard.

These tactical ideas run through the entire Xia Kingdom's People's Liberation Army, and the entire force, from top to bottom, has mastered these tactics to perfection.

Take the self-defense counterattack war that broke out on the Xia-Indian border two years ago. At that time, many soldiers relied on their indomitable belief and excellent tactical level to defeat the Indian army.

There were even four soldiers, led by their deputy squad leader, who divided into two teams and covered each other and advanced alternately, and directly broke into the Indian army's artillery formation, and seized four cannons.

The Investigation Company of the 4th Regiment of the 2nd Guard Division was composed of some personnel from the former Special Police Brigade of the Public Security Detachment, and its members have excellent quality.

Under the guidance of "Liu Zhiye Training Method" and enhanced training, they quickly stood out in the competition and became the focus of attention of the competition.

The company has an endless stream of ace sharpshooters who have unique skills, whether it is climbing walls and climbing roofs, clever sneak attacks, silent infiltration, precise capture, meticulous reconnaissance, or even driving various types of vehicles, they are all adept at it.

In all the competitions in this grand contest, they won the championship many times and became the focus of the leaders of Xia State.

Question: "Which troop is this? Who is leading it? Why are they so brave?"

Answer: "It's Liu Zhiye from the Second Guard Division!"

The military competition has come to an end. Shockingly, the top of honor was won by the youngest unit in the army. This result undoubtedly brought an unexpected shock to everyone.

This is indeed shocking. Among the millions of troops in the army, there are many famous ace troops with a long history and brilliant combat achievements. The reconnaissance company of the 4th Regiment of the 2nd Guard Division has superb skills and extraordinary strength, and can be regarded as the leader in the army.

The reconnaissance company of the 4th Regiment of the 2nd Guard Division became famous, and Liu Zhiye and his unique "Liu Zhiye training method" became extremely popular, becoming the focus of attention of the entire army.

The Military Commission attached great importance to the "Liu Zhiye Training Method" in Xia. In order to popularize it throughout the army, elite military training teams from various major military regions went to the Second Division’s base in Liujiazhuang in batches to study this method in depth.

As personnel from many units across the country flocked in, the Second Guard Division was instantly swept up in this wave of enthusiasm, and the entire division headquarters was in a state of excitement.

Liu Zhiye, as the initiator, has also won many high honors for this.

Among them, the "Second Class August 1st Medal" directly awarded by the Xia Kingdom Military Commission is the most prestigious medal he has received so far, highlighting his outstanding contributions since joining the army.

The "August 1st Medal" is the highest honor in the Xia Kingdom's military. It is generally awarded every five years to military personnel who have made great contributions, established outstanding meritorious services, and had a far-reaching impact on the country and the entire army in safeguarding national sovereignty, security, and development interests and promoting national defense and military modernization.

The second-level "August 203st Medal" obtained by Liu Zhiye uses the design elements of the August st military emblem, five-pointed star, sword, flag, light, the Great Wall and olive branch. It weighs grams and is made of pure gold.

It was also the first time since 55 that the second-class "August st Medal" was awarded to military cadres below the rank of general, in accordance with the "Regulations on Medals and Awards Awarded by the People's Liberation Army to Meritorious Personnel during the Chinese People's Revolutionary War" passed by the highest authority of the Republic of China.

When the military ranks were first awarded, the "August 1st Medal" and medal, the "Independence and Freedom Medal" and medal, and the "Liberation Medal" and medal were awarded to those who had made meritorious contributions to the People's Army during the Agrarian Revolution, the Anti-Japanese War and the War of Liberation in the Xia Dynasty.

It is a special case for Liu Zhiye to receive this honor, and it is very difficult to obtain without great achievements.

This second-level "August 1st Medal" and medal are priceless treasures, enough to become treasures inherited by the Liu family, passed down from generation to generation and lasting forever.

Liu Zhiye is young and promising, and can be regarded as a representative of young soldiers in the army. Now he has completely caught the attention of his superiors.

Since then, he has officially become a member of the military reserve cadre, attracted much attention, and received focused training.

After the Chinese New Year, Liu Zhiye will go to the Xiaguo People's Liberation Army Advanced Military Academy to study in a two-year part-time advanced command class.

The Xia People's Liberation Army Military Academy was first established in 1951.

It is the highest institution of learning established after the founding of the People's Republic of China in order to train middle and senior commanders who are compatible with the revolutionary, modern and regularized construction of the People's Liberation Army of China.

"Whether a unit can be led well or not depends on the cadres. Leading cadres should set a good example. There are no soldiers who cannot be led well, only officers who cannot be led well."

In the past few years, according to the decision of the Military Commission of the Xia Dynasty, the Higher Military Academy, Military Academy, and Navy, Air Force, Artillery, Armored Forces and other academies were established based on the relevant departments of the Military Academy.

The newly established Higher Military Academy was located in the capital (the predecessor of the National Defense University). Its mission was to train current military, political, and logistical cadres at the rank of colonel and above in the army, navy, and air force, senior staff, and military theorists.

The school's students study in two categories: training and rotation training. The training classes are divided into advanced command classes, command classes, and military theory classes, with a school period of one and a half years.

During the 1950s and 1960s, the Xiaguo People's Liberation Army Advanced Military Academy trained a large number of senior military commanders and staff members, making important contributions to the future construction and development of the Xiaguo People's Liberation Army.

Therefore, as long as Liu Zhiye does not make big mistakes in the future, with his profound qualifications, rich experience, outstanding contributions and extensive knowledge, he will surely rise to become an important figure in the Xia State military.

As the Second Guard Division became famous and became the focus of attention of the entire army, Liujiazhuang also took advantage of this opportunity and jumped from a small place in a corner of the capital to a hot topic known throughout the country.

"The First Town in China"

"Ten Thousand Yuan Village!"

“Hometown of Rice in Western Beijing”

"Flower Volcano"

"Wild Mountain Wine"

"..."

Soldiers in particular love fine wine. For comrades from various units of the army who came to exchange ideas, the Second Guard Division cleverly utilized local resources and warmly entertained them with Liujiazhuang's unique "wild mountain wine", fully demonstrating the hospitality of the host.

The unique taste of "Wild Mountain Wine" not only captivates the "old Russians" of the fighting nation, but also intoxicates the soldiers who come here to exchange and learn.

This brand of wine has conquered the taste buds of countless people with its unique charm.

After these personnel returned to their original units, their deep attachment to "wild mountain wine" made it an indispensable military supply for each unit.

The Yeshan Winery was originally a prosperous place with rapid development. After the completion of the second phase of the project, they quickly moved on to the construction of the third phase, demonstrating amazing efficiency and determination.

The third phase of the Liujiazhuang "Yeshan Winery" project was planned to be a separate factory for military supplies and to meet export needs.

From now on, the output of the original Phase I and Phase II projects will only be aimed at meeting the huge and growing domestic market demand.

Moreover, after being listed as a military supply and export brand, the intangible benefits behind it are significant, not only greatly enhancing the brand awareness, but also making its value achieve a qualitative leap.
