Chapter 388 Competition Training Mode
The group fight training method is quite effective. At the beginning, those honest English farmers were ordered to fight each other in a company and fight each other in a group, and they were still timid and dared not take action. However, with the beginning of fighting, it is natural to take the following.
Moreover, they had no choice but to work hard. According to regulations, all 250 people in the company that lost the group fight had to run laps. Moreover, they ran five thousand meters and would not be given food until they finished running.
At the same time, the side dishes that should have been assigned to them (the foods that were eaten with bread, mainly bacon, sausage, salted fish and other easy-to-preserved foods shipped from Germany) were also lost to the winner as a meal. This was absolutely unbearable...
You should know that for these honest and poor English farmers, they usually can only eat black porridge made of mixed things such as rye and wild grass roots. It is rare to eat meat. Especially these farmers in several northern counties in England.
Because England's economy is very unbalanced. In this era, the economy of several counties on the southeast coast near London was relatively developed, and farmers here might be able to eat meat every once in a while. However, the economy of several counties in northern England is much worse than that of the central and western regions of China. Here, only a few major festivals such as Christmas will allow ordinary people to grit their teeth and buy some fish and taste it. In normal times, it is better to eat dark and paste porridge honestly.
Therefore, these soldiers were so happy that they could eat delicious foods like salted fish, bacon and sausages every day. They almost starved to death a moment ago, but now they have fish every meal, which is simply coming to heaven.
Of course, if Yumao loses to his opponent because of a failed fight, it will be very depressed. Moreover, he will be punished to run the lap, which is extremely miserable.
...
In fact, Marin did not recommend that soldiers eat salted fish, bacon and sausages every meal, because these have carcinogens. However, in the northern counties of England, all the livestock were killed by the Scots and the meat was taken away. Therefore, food could only be imported from East Friesland.
In order to facilitate transportation and preservation, Kohler, who is responsible for military supplies, can only choose to provide salted fish, bacon and sausages. Among them, East Friesian salted fish is extremely numerous and has low cost. It is the side dish that soldiers usually eat the most. As for bacon and sausages, there are also many. Especially sausages, which are also very popular because they are easy to carry and consume.
In this era, Europeans were accustomed to eating bacon and sausages and other foods that are prone to cancer. Therefore, not many Europeans lived long-lived in this era. When Marin opposed the soldiers eating bacon and sausages, everyone felt very strange. Because eating bacon and sausages is a tradition of Europeans...
In the end, Marin did not change everyone's idea. Moreover, it is very important that the cost of preparing fresh meat for the soldiers is a bit high. This cost is mainly due to transportation costs. After all, fresh meat is made in the slaughterhouse. It is impossible for the military camp to set up a slaughterhouse and keep a large number of live animals. If you want fresh meat, you have to transport it from the slaughterhouse every day. It would be fine if the military camp is located near the slaughterhouse. If it is far away, the cost of transporting carriages in this era is very unprofitable. Therefore, for the army, the most reasonable thing is to preserve and carry pickled meat and salted fish.
Therefore, Marin could only call on his family and nobles to eat less pickled food and more fresh food. As for the soldiers, Marin was unable to change anything.
Although Marin thinks that eating pickled meat is not good and salted fish, ordinary soldiers have different ideas. They basically come from poor families and rarely eat meat. Being able to eat some salted fish, bacon and sausage every day is definitely a very enjoyable life. As for carcinogens, what is that? Is it delicious?
The salted fish, bacon and sausage, which seem to be common in officers like Saccarat, are delicious delicacies given by heaven to farmers in the northern counties of England, where bread is rarely eaten.
It is absolutely unbearable to be taken away by the opponent because of losing a fight. Therefore, during group training, fighting pays more attention to the exchange and exchange of fighting skills.
At the beginning, when they lost the fight, some soldiers blamed their comrades who were not strong in fighting. However, when this happened, those soldiers who blamed their comrades who were not strong in fighting were severely punished by Sakara.
Sakala followed Marin for many years and had a high theoretical level. Marin always emphasized that the army is a whole, either receiving rewards or being punished together, and shirking responsibility is never allowed.
After Sakara's severe punishment, no one of these recruits blamed their comrades. However, they also knew to make adjustments based on the actual situation. For example, queer who was not good at fighting were placed in the middle of the formation, and put the strongest combat power in the front. At the same time, under Sakara's suggestion, everyone gradually learned to support each other...
Under this group fighting training method, these honest English farmers gradually became veterans of group fighting. Moreover, during the group fighting, Sakala also dispatched a law enforcement team to guard the side. Once a company fights in groups, the formation will be in chaos, the law enforcement team will go up and beat the stick...
After a few weeks, the English farmers gradually adapted to the group fighting method of maintaining their formation. Moreover, everyone's bloodiness was stimulated and they became more fighting.
What made Sakara smile bitterly was that when these guys were fighting, the slogan they shouted was "fight for meat"...
Moreover, after this slogan was shouted, these farmers were like chicken blood, with their strength doubled and their morale magnificent...
Later, this army of English farmers, before charging, did not contain any other slogans, and directly shouted "fight for meat", and then went up with red eyes and started to fuck...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, this is the training method of the 7,000 spearmen. For those 3,000 archers, Sakara still trains their ability to shoot archery according to the conventional method. Moreover, focus on training the ability to shoot the ejection. Specifically, it is to train the ability to control the ejection distance, so as to ensure that when ejecting, the arrow can be shot into the required area, causing a lot of damage to the enemy.
For example, when the soldiers in the front three rows of the enemy put on plate armor (mainly breastplate and helmet), the archers require that when shooting, they shoot arrows into the crowd without armor after the front three rows of the enemy, causing a large amount of damage.
If the enemy's first three rows are not wearing armor, you must control it and shoot the arrows to the area of the first three rows of the enemy. Because, according to the habits of European troops in this era, the soldiers in the first three rows are often elite. Being able to kill more elites on the opponent is definitely the right and advantageous choice.
Although these 3,000 archers were not arranged to fight each other, Sakara, who likes to engage in competitions, still asked the archers to compete for archery according to the company.
The specific competition method is to send people to draw circles in the "enemy's area" simulated from a long distance. Then, arrange each archer company to shoot at a specified distance. Finally, if any company falls into the lime circle, it will win.
Similarly, if you win one side, you will get the meat of the loser. At the same time, the loser will also run the lap...
Of course, for fairness, Sakara evenly allocated the best group of archers into each company to balance the strength of each company. At the same time, he also required those excellent archers to guide others in shooting skills and drive everyone to make progress.
Under this competition training mode, everyone's enthusiasm for training is high. In order not to be unable to eat meat, the best shooters are willing to teach their comrades to shoot with their hearts, which has improved everyone.
