The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2218: Training Methods

"Do you want to go home?" Shang Zhen asked.

"Yes." The soldier standing below answered weakly.

"Your parents are waiting for you to come back, your wife and children are waiting for you to come back. I'll ask you again, do you want to go home? Speak louder!" Shang Zhen asked again.

"Yes!" This time the soldier's voice was much louder.

"Do you want to avoid being bullied?" Shang Zhen asked again.

"Yes!" This time the soldiers answered loudly.

"If you want to go home and not be bullied, you have a chance now." Shang Zhen began to pace, "If you train yourself to be strong enough and improve your marksmanship, you will have a chance to go home!

It’s better to practice hard to death than to live a miserable life!

Are there any of you who are thinner than me? Come! Follow me and practice. If you can’t keep up with me, don’t blame me for beating you with a big stick!” Shang Zhen said.

Then he took off his shirt and threw it aside.

Then, both the soldiers standing below and the officers and soldiers watching the excitement nearby were in an uproar.

The reason was simple: Shang Zhen was too thin. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was skinny. His ribs were clearly visible and he looked like someone who had just recovered from a serious illness.

The soldiers below are fine, they were conscripted men, and although they are now wearing military uniforms, they are still civilians at heart.

But even though they were just ordinary people, they could still distinguish between fat and thin. Every one of them felt that their physique was always stronger than Shang Zhen's.

But the officers and soldiers who were watching were different. They first felt it was funny and ridiculous to see Shang Zhen, who was as thin as a bamboo pole but spoke in a loud voice.

But then some sharp-eyed soldiers pointed at the scars on Shang Zhen’s chest and back.

It was summer, and the sun was already very hot at around eight or nine o'clock, so the scars on Shang Zhen's body were particularly obvious.

Of course the officers and soldiers nearby had seen the scar.

Generally speaking, scars are described as looking like earthworms in the soil, which are extremely hideous.

But the scar on Shang Zhen’s chest is not like this. His scar is round and slightly smaller than a copper coin, but it is sunken.

Looking at the corresponding part of his back, there was a scar that was larger than the previous one.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Is there any need to explain what the scar on Shang Zhen's body means? It's a gunshot wound, a scar left after being shot through by a bullet!

No one knows how Shang Zhen managed to survive with such injuries.

There is no doubt that Shang Zhen has already been to hell!

At this point, Shang Zhen's identity as a veteran soldier had been clearly revealed!

Shang Zhen began to lead the troops in training, leading by example and starting with push-ups with the new recruits.

What happened next was just as Shang Zhen said, I can hold on, if you can't, don't blame me for beating you, this reason is completely valid.

After only doing more than ten times, the sweat beads on Shang Zhen's head and body fell into the dry soil with a crackling sound.

It was already June and the weather was very hot. Normally, a drop of sweat would dry up quickly after falling on the ground, but the problem depends on how many you drop. When Shang Zhen did the 20th drop, the ground beneath him was already covered with sweat spots.

At this time, Qian Feng, who was in charge of supervision, pointed at a soldier who had fallen to the ground before Shang Zhen and yelled, "You, lie down first!"

Following Qian Feng's shout, all the new recruits took the opportunity to lie down on the ground and take a rest.

Shang Zhen also lay on the ground. He raised his head with all his strength and looked at the soldier and said, "Beat him. Take off his pants and beat him. He is stronger than me anyway."

Since Shang Zhen said so, everyone naturally compared Shang Zhen with the soldier who was lying on the ground first. Although the soldier was not fat in terms of physique, he was definitely better than Shang Zhen who was as thin as a thorn.

Shang Zhen gave the order, and Qian Feng and two soldiers came forward. Before they could even take off the soldier's pants, the soldier started screaming like a pig being slaughtered. "Scream again? I'll beat you up if you scream!" Shang Zhen said angrily.

Shang Zhen's words worked, and the soldier immediately shut up.

But then the soldier started screaming again, of course, because he was hit on the buttocks twice!

After just these two blows, the soldier's butt and face turned red. It didn't hurt much but it was extremely insulting!

"I still say the same thing. I've seen it too. I'm the thinnest. Let's continue. Whoever lies down first and can't move will take off his pants and beat him. If I lie down first, beat me!" Shang Zhen said loudly.

"Then if you lie down first, who would dare to beat you hard?" There were some honest men among the able-bodied men who dared to talk back to Shang Zhen.

Qian Feng, who was standing next to him, was about to get angry, but Shang Zhen laughed and said, "Even if the beating was light, isn't it embarrassing for a company commander like me to have his pants stripped?"

No one expected that Shang Zhen was waiting for him here!

Why do you have to take off your pants and spank that bare butt? The company commander's butt must be more noble than that of a soldier.

At this point, since Shang Zhen, who looked the weakest, had set an example and no one else had any objections, Shang Zhen gave another order and led the soldiers to continue doing push-ups.

Doing push-ups is a physical activity. If the first group can do twenty, the second group may not be able to do twenty.

Don't laugh. Nowadays, Chinese soldiers, forget about the soldiers, just talk about these able-bodied men, there are really not many who can do more than 20 push-ups!

Haven't you seen the photos of the Anti-Japanese War that have been passed down to later generations? Although the soldiers of the Big Sword Team were brandishing swords, their ribs were clearly visible.

Shang Zhen could do hundreds or even thousands of them at his peak, but a true man should never boast of his past achievements. Now he is exhausted after just doing twenty of them. Who told him to do that because he was seriously injured?

Shang Zhen led the soldiers to continue doing it, and this time when they reached the 19th soldier, another soldier lay down and didn't move, and the result was naturally a beating on the buttocks.

"Okay, stand up." Shang Zhen jumped up from the ground.

After all the soldiers were standing in position, Shang Zhen said with a smile, "Everyone is physically stronger than me, can't you have some shame?"

After he said that, the others were fine, but the faces of the two soldiers who were beaten with sticks turned red again.

"Let's move on to the next one. Your arms are weak, right? Let's do horse stance." Shang Zhen said again.

After that, he didn't waste any words. He just stood in a horse stance to show the soldiers how to do it. He explained the key points of the movements. When he saw that the soldiers had all learned it, he said, "It's the same as the push-ups just now. Whoever can stand the longest and whoever can't hold on first will be punished by the old rules!"

Then the scene on the open space became still, and of course all the people in the company were doing horse stance.

Shang Zhen's way of training soldiers was not strange but it was rare. Officers and soldiers from other companies were watching around him. Not far away, the fat brigade commander and several officers were also watching the fun.

"Brigade Commander, I feel that this boy is not an ordinary person." said his chief of staff.

"He does have a fierceness, but he has no flesh on his body, so even gods can't defeat him." The fat brigade commander finally gave this evaluation of Shang Zhen.

The fat brigade commander wanted to say that he could never compare to the ruthlessness this bastard had towards him.

But when he considered his own status, he changed his comment when the words were on the tip of his tongue.

In their opinion, Shang Zhen trained like a soldier, but his physique was not as good as that of a soldier. But why couldn't he withstand a beating? It was because Shang Zhen had the ruthlessness of a veteran soldier.

Of course, it’s not wrong to say so.

However, Shang Zhen still cheated in the end because he had practiced the push-ups and horse stances that he led the soldiers to do before, but he knew that there were not many tricks to this kind of thing, just that you had to be cruel to yourself.

Because that’s how he developed his physical fitness at his peak!

He finally doesn't have to fight anymore, so why doesn't he take the opportunity of training new recruits to improve his physical fitness?
