Macho Wars

And after getting used to these house rules, the recruits found that it was not without benefits.The first is that the living conditions have been greatly improved. The tidy dormitory looks spotlessly clean, and the tiles in the toilet and bathroom are rubbed by them to see.

Strict dressing and queue regulations have made their temperament change unconsciously.

Kane, who often comes to inspect, can clearly feel the changes that are taking place in these recruits.He must admit that Dragoon's training method does have its advantages.It only took less than a month to erase the common people's breath from these recruits, and they began to look like a group of soldiers.

In comparison, the other group of 6,000 recruits who are being trained, even though they have already conducted shooting training twice, but in terms of military temperament, they are not even worse than Dragon.It felt like a group of farmers in military uniforms, even the posture of carrying a gun gave people a sense of preparing to go down to weeding.

For such results, Dragon was not complacent, because he knew that this was just the beginning. If he wanted to prove his superiority like his superiors, he had to allow his trained soldiers to crush the opponent.

So after the internal training was effective, Dragoon finally began further military training, and the most important thing was physical fitness.If a soldier doesn't even have a strong physique, no matter how good the weapon is, it's no use.

Before Dragoon took over a unit, he would grasp the physical training of his subordinates, so he has quite a lot of experience in this area, and he has summed up a set of very scientific and effective training courses.The Marine Corps’ training syllabus is an enhanced and upgraded version on this basis. He needs soldiers to be faster and stronger.

In order to enhance the training enthusiasm of the recruits, Dragon personally participated in the training on the one hand, and clearly told his soldiers that if the training targets he set could not even be reached by himself, he would never force everyone.

But if even he can do it, the soldiers in the training camp must meet the standard and aim to exceed themselves.

With reference to the People's Liberation Army on the other side of the earth, Dragon specially erected several large signs at the entrance of the training camp, with picture frames on the top and various "models" written on the bottom.

As long as anyone can get the first place in a single subject, his photo will be hung here.The evaluation is conducted once a week, and the strong who dominate a certain subject or occupy multiple subjects for more than three consecutive weeks will be promoted to corporal first after the training.

Once this system came out, it immediately greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the recruits for training.But Dragon had forgotten that he had an "out-of-spec" player under him, and that was Tafe.

The physical quality of the demon warrior is placed there, and ordinary people are not her opponents, so she was "slaughtered" by her alone in the first week of training pacesetters.

In desperation, Dragon could only shame her and forcibly exclude her from the campaign, which made the male soldiers with frustrated self-esteem feel better.

Chapter 245 We Are The Marines

The training of recruits is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the elimination mechanism is also at play.

Dragon has developed a scoring mechanism linked to training performance. When selecting pacesetters every week, it is also a time to eliminate laggards.

For all military training subjects, the indicators will be improved every two to three weeks. As long as the new recruits fail to meet the standards in more than three subjects, they will be kicked out.

Dragon’s goal is to eliminate 200 people every week. If the number of people who do not meet the standard is not enough, they will directly follow the transcript and use the bottom "bad students" to make up.

Under this strict elimination mechanism, all officers and soldiers in the army feel like a wild horse running wild on the grassland. There are beasts chasing them behind, and they will be eaten as long as they fall behind the group.

of course!As long as there is competition between people, there will surely be people who are thinking about it.

In the tenth week of the recruit training, a theft occurred in the 23rd squad. A recruit stole something from other comrades and was arrested on the spot.

According to the regulations of the training camp, people with bad conduct will not only be kicked out, but will also receive five lashes.

But after reading the investigation report submitted by the lower level, Dragun keenly discovered something abnormal.The recruits accused of theft did not have any bad records before this, and they had excellent training results, especially in bombing. They had won the title of pacesetter for five consecutive weeks, and the promotion of corporal was almost certain.

The key is that this person is from a well-off family. Although he is not of aristocratic background, his father is a dental doctor in a private clinic in the colony and his family is not short of money.

You said that such a good young man could not restrain his greed for a while and steal the "valuables" of other comrades in arms. Dragoon is very skeptical.

So he called the "witnesses" at the time of the case to his office one by one to talk, but he frightened them all in a few strokes.

It turned out that these recruits were all fellow villagers, and they bullied other recruits in private.Just because they were jealous of the recruits framed by them, they did well. They spoke very prestigiously in the 23rd squad they belonged to. They always stood up for the recruits who were bullied by them. So these guys designed to frame him and want to take him out of training. Camp out.

After figuring out the truth of the matter, Dragon turned the case on behalf of the wronged recruits, then hung up the fellow regiment and whipped each of them ten times and swept directly out of the army.

Such rubbish, no matter how good the training is, Dragon will not send it to other troops to harm people.

After dealing with several similar incidents one after another, the evil spirits in the training camp were finally wiped out by Dragon in the embryonic stage, and a lot of garbage was cleaned up.

In this way, after the first phase of the eighteen-week training period, there were 2,653 soldiers left in the training camp, which was slightly more than the number originally expected by Dragoon.Mainly in the last two weeks, even if the training index is already 60% higher than that of ordinary troops, the pass rate is as high as 99%.

Faced with such a gratifying situation, even if Dragoon is strict, he is a bit reluctant to follow the hard target of eliminating 200 per week.

So Dragon announced that the elimination period of recruit training is over, and then synthetic training will be conducted to formally learn the tactical tactics related to amphibious landing.

The original squad of 100 recruits was broken up and organized into four infantry battalions according to the organization of regular troops. Each battalion was as high as 800 people, similar in size to the US military on the other side of the earth.

On the day of the reorganization, all the training soldiers once again assembled on the school grounds, arranged in four square formations according to battalions.More than 3,000 people lined up in a neat line, no one whispering to each other, no one making small moves, just standing there with their heads high, there is a sense of killing.

Seeing this army trained by himself, Dragon was full of emotions for a time.

This was the first time that he had trained a new army completely according to his own ideas, and even his old men followed him back to the furnace.

Kane Mountbatten, who came to review, looked at the soldiers in front of him and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Li, I have to apologize, I had doubts about your training program before. You have proved yourself with actual results. Look at these young men, they are believed to be the imperial army."

"You have a good reputation, General."

"Hehe, I am looking forward to the confrontation exercise in 18 weeks' time. Don't let me down by then!"

"General, I can assure you that the entire colony will be impressed with our Marines."

To be honest, the training of recruits is basically over at this point, and even if they are thrown into the battlefield now, there is no problem.

Dragon's training has successfully rooted discipline into the bones of these soldiers.

But Dragon’s goal for himself is not just as simple as defeating another 6,000 recruits in a confrontation exercise four months later, but to build a true amphibious force.This requires not only excellent soldiers, but also excellent weapons and equipment.

So Dragon took the time to go to the Naval Shipyard in Port Pandora to monitor the "new toys" of the Marine Corps.

According to actual combat needs, Dragon proposed to build an "amphibious dock landing ship" as early as the formation stage of the amphibious brigade.

Dragon believes that the Marine Corps needs small and medium-sized landing craft and amphibious combat vehicles, as well as a large mothership that is big enough to quickly drop ships at sea.The improved Griffin class proposed by the Design Bureau was not up to their combat requirements.

So in accordance with the requirements put forward by Dragon, the Naval Design Bureau was the first to get the light landing craft and let the local shipyard of the colony put it into experimental small batch production.

The new landing craft has a displacement of about 15 tons and theoretically has a maximum speed of nine knots. It can carry a platoon of infantry or four tons of materials at a time.

Although this thing is not fast, it is small in size and flexible in steering. It is indeed not easy to be hit by heavy fire on the shore when driving at sea.

It is worth mentioning that the first batch of landing crafts fully adopted Dragon's opinions in the design stage, put the engine in the front, the hatch in the rear, and the two sides were propelled by water wheels.

This can ensure that the marines can use the landing craft as a shelter after the landing craft flushes the beach to avoid direct exposure to shore fire protection.

But the corresponding disadvantages are not without, because the engine is front, the boat can easily lose power when the engine is hit during the driving phase.At that time, the brothers of this boat can only go ashore by rowing.

After the first batch of landing crafts were taken away by Dragon, they were immediately put into training.They found a beach with better conditions in the coastal area, and prepared to let the troops experience the feeling of going from sea to land in batches.

Watching the dinghy go out to sea on its own power, and then make a circle back to wash the beach, Dragon couldn't help but fill in his ideal picture in his heart.

Chapter 246

The first landing exercise was far from ideal in terms of results. The actual operation revealed more problems than originally anticipated.

The first is the problem of the landing craft. One aspect is that it is too slow, and it will be very bumpy at sea.
