Chapter 166 Science is very important
Marching is a great science, not as simple as running wildly.
In film and television dramas, it is often seen that a unit runs forward desperately regardless of its formation in order to rush forward, which looks very nervous. There are propaganda team members there cheering up and the picture is also very strong.
In fact, for long-distance marching, this is the most undesirable. Just like experienced long-distance runners, most of their running time, they will maintain a uniform speed to fully save their physical strength. The final winner of marathon athletes is rarely the one who runs to the front from the beginning.
The best way for troops to march long distances is to follow the queue movements stipulated in the Queue Ordinance - everyone marched in an orderly queue.
People are always prone to feeling lazy. When a person is rushing, he will change his marching speed at any time according to his mood. When he feels tired, he will want to take a break. People with poor physical fitness or weak willpower will find it difficult to persist in long-distance marching.
However, if a person's behavior is restricted in the moving queue, his movements will become mechanically numb, and he will not easily feel tired, and he will easily persevere under the constraints of discipline.
120 miles sounds like a very terrible number. In fact, it is very common to decompose it. 120 miles is 60 kilometers, which is 60,000 meters.
The commonly used steps in the Queue Ordinance are to walk in sync and run.
Walk each step in a row about 75cm, 112-116 steps per minute. That is to say, you can walk about 80 meters per minute.
The running pace is about 85cm each step, 170-180 steps per minute, and can travel about about 150 meters per minute.
If calculated according to the running speed in the Queue Ordinance, without considering the rest on the way, it takes 400 minutes to run 60,000 meters, which is six and a half hours.
Gao Jiu and his team still have 19 hours from the start of the march to the destination. It takes two hours to choose a position to set up a hidden ambush, which means that there are still 17 hours left for them to march. During these 17 hours, eating, sleeping and resting in the middle can be at least ten hours for the march. As long as the reasonable arrangement is made, the entire army can calmly ensure that they arrive at the ambush position on time.
After his teammates finished their meal, Gao Jiu did not immediately order the troops to march. He had vigorous physical activities after the meal, which was extremely harmful to his body. Ancient military strategists knew this well and would let the soldiers eat half full before every war.
Gao Jiu asked everyone to continue to rest until half an hour later, when he asked the troops to gather.
According to Gao Jiu's requirements, the special forces team members were divided into two parts, standing in front of the entire queue and at the end of the team. The front was 20 players led by Guo Hengming. The last was 20 players led by Du Shengxi. The middle was the county brigade troops, which was done to prevent unexpected situations.
After the team gathered, Gao Jiu would conduct pre-war mobilization.
Yang Jiong was very curious and wanted to see what wonderful speech Gao Jiu could give to conduct pre-war mobilization.
Gao Jiu came to the front of the queue, saluted everyone, and ordered the troops to rest.
He said, "Brothers! As the saying goes, food should be eaten one bite at a time. A person can live to 70 years old. According to the calculation of eating one pound of grain per person every day, it will take about 30,000 pounds of grain in 70 years. A pile of 30,000 pounds of grain will be a hill. If you are asked to complete it as a task, if you eat such a hill, you may be able to kill you hundreds of times. Isn't that scary?"
When the team members heard this, they burst into laughter.
Gao Jiu continued: "Actually, if everyone only eats one pound of grain every day and then divides it into three meals, each meal will only be three or four taels. For everyone [ www.biqugetv.co], it is not only not a burden, but I'm afraid it's a little bit too much."
When the team members heard this, they couldn't help laughing again.
Gao Jiu continued: "We will walk 120 miles next, which sounds very far away and even terrible. In fact, this is the same as eating. The road is a step by step.
In the following march, everyone will march at the speed of a queue, and they can rest for five minutes every 20 minutes, and every hour can rest for ten minutes. After two hours of continuous march, they can rest for half an hour, and they can also arrange meals and bedtimes.
Don’t think that you are going to walk 120 miles. As long as you think, I can stop and rest for 20 minutes, and you won’t feel tired.
The brothers are all young and strong young men. I believe none of you will be able to hold on for even 20 minutes.
Yes, brothers?"
The team members replied together: "Yes."
When you hear everyone's tone when you answer, you can hear that everyone is no longer nervous.
In Yang Jiong's heart, he originally felt that 120 miles was very scary. He had made up his mind to grit his teeth and persevere. Hearing Gao Jiu say this, he immediately felt relieved.
He was thinking about how Gao Jiu would mobilize next, but Gao Jiu directly ordered: "Everyone has it, turn right and walk in unison."
After saying that, Gao Jiu ran to the front of the entire team and stood shoulder to shoulder with Guo Hengming to support the troops in front.
Yang Jiong and Jiang Xiaomei stood side by side in front of the county brigade. While walking, he compared his speech with Gao Jiu's pre-war mobilization. He spoke passionately and spitting everywhere at that time, which really made the members of the county brigade scream, but he, including himself, could feel very nervous.
Gao Jiu's words were simple and unpretentious, but they could relax all the team members. Everyone was not nervous about the next long-distance marches, but full of confidence.
Yang Jiong is a good learner. He learned a truth from Gao Jiu's speech, that is, when he speaks in the future, he should not only talk about big principles and shout slogans, but also be pragmatic, speak more with facts, and be able to speak convincing truths. Doing so will be more inspiring than shouting slogans.
Gao Jiu walked in front of the team. At the beginning, he did not run and walk, but let the troops walk for about 300 meters in one step. Only after the team members' bodies were warmed up did he issue a command to run and walk.
In fact, a journey of 120 miles is not an easy task, because there are still about 50 miles of mountain roads to walk behind. When you arrive in the mountainous area, it is difficult to maintain the marching speed even if you walk with your stairs.
Therefore, the distance on the previous plain should be saved as much time as possible.
At the beginning, Gao Jiu stuck time very accurately. After 20 minutes, he gave the team members a five-minute break.
Later, because the members of the county brigade had no watches, he started to play a trick. He stopped to rest every 22 minutes, and started to march for four and a half minutes each time. Don’t underestimate these two and a half minutes, you can walk a long journey.
Even so, the team members still felt very relaxed under the psychological effect.
Two hours later, although the marching method was still adopted, the team members would inevitably feel tired, and the mental state of the entire team had begun to become a little tired.
Yang Jiong is a very smart person. He is good at learning from one example. During a marching break, he said to the members of the county brigade: "We have to walk for 20 minutes each time we march. If we feel tired, you can count in your heart. We have to run about 180 steps per minute, and you divide these 20 minutes into 20 180 steps. If you count 180 steps, tell yourself to run another 19 and you can rest, then 18, 17, and so on, you will feel that the time to rest is getting closer and closer.
When you first started running, you were not tired. When you were tired later, the remaining distance was not much. At this time, every time you count 180 steps, you will feel that you have hope and it will be easy to persevere."
Gao Jiu was also a little impressed when he heard Yang Jiong's words. He had contacted Yang Jiong many times and believed that Yang Jiong was a humble, well-educated and pragmatic person.
The gcd troops have two military and political chiefs. If the two of them cannot get together, it will be a very troublesome thing. There is a TV series "The Indelible Number", in which Li Da met an annoying political commissar Zhang Jiujin, which makes people angry. Gao Jiu was really happy to meet someone like Yang Jiong.
During the march, the special forces members of the Taohuashan Guerrillas left a deep impression on the members of the county brigade.
The members of the county brigade carried their own rifles, bullet bags, grenade bags, dry food bags, and kettles made of gourds. All of them were only a dozen pounds. Although these dozen pounds were too much, it was also a big burden when they felt tired when they were marching.
The special forces of the Taohua Mountain guerrillas each carried a heavy backpack on their backs. In addition, each person had at least two weapons, which weighed dozens of kilograms in total. But those guys looked even easier than those of the county brigade.
The members of the county brigade used to have only heard that the special forces team members ate well, had meat and a lot of ocean every meal, and were very envious. But when they saw the sins these guys suffered, they felt much more balanced.
At one o'clock in the morning, the troops entered the mountainous area, and Gao Jiu ordered the troops to stop and rest. So far, there was no one left behind in the entire army.
Gao Jiu asked the team members to eat some dry food, then cut down some pine branches nearby, and then they would take the torch to walk the mountain road.
Taohua Mountain.
