Chapter 404: People who are better than you work hard
When the last student returned to the training ground, Liu Gen was quite satisfied. At least every student successfully completed this training.
The students were able to do this because they had already fulfilled Liu Gen’s minimum requirements. However, because Liu Gen did not speak, the soldiers who came back later were quite nervous. They didn’t know what attitude Liu Gen would have.
This is also because Liu Gen left too strict the impression on the students. In the eyes of the students, Liu Gen had very strict requirements on their training programs.
If the instructor Liu Gen punishes, he will definitely choose to punish those students who fall at the end, which will lead to those students who come back late. The more Liu Gen doesn't speak, the greater the pressure these students will bear.
"What? Everyone is so nervous?" Liu Gen looked at the students present and asked with a smile.
Seeing the smile on the face of the instructor Liu Gen, the students were slightly stunned, but became more and more wary of the instructor Liu Gen. The students did not think that the instructor Liu Gen would do anything good. Once Liu Gen found their problems, they would be in trouble.
No student spoke, and they didn't want to respond to Liu Gen's ideas. For the students, the most they wanted to do was simple, that is, to hold on to the training they had today.
Liu Gen was a little helpless. These students were a little too timid. He was not very strict in training! Every time the training ended, Liu Gen left enough time for the soldiers to rest. If he was a little stricter, he would not have to leave any rest time for the students, and constantly give the students pressure on training, so that the students could continue to break through the limits.
After knowing that these students would not speak easily, Liu Gen chose to give up. He silently calculated the time and prepared to give the students another ten minutes of rest time, then called the students up and devoted themselves to the training again.
In training, Liu Gen still takes good care of the students. At least he pays attention to the physical condition of the students. When their physical condition is about to be unbearable, he chooses to let these students rest. Liu Gen hopes that the students can continue to improve and become better, but these need to be based on one premise, that is, the students' bodies cannot be damaged.
The training environment of artillery schools is still a bit simple. There are no doctors who are specifically responsible for the physical condition of the students, and there are not enough nutritional conditions. Perhaps the only better condition is that these students can eat a full meal every day and do not have to worry about the risk of lack of food and clothing.
Compared with the entire 129th Division, the artillery school still requires very few resources. As long as the artillery school is not self-sufficient, the division headquarters will not stop supporting the artillery school’s resource support.
Ten minutes passed quickly. With Liu Gen's order, the students stood up and quickly stood in the queue.
Liu Gen was quite satisfied with the students who looked at him and swept his eyes over the training ground. During the rest, these students were very relaxed, but as long as they heard the orders of the instructor Liu Gen, the students would quickly stand in a complete queue like a machine. When smart students were resting, they would choose a place not far from their position in the queue. Unclear students would naturally find a place to rest at will.
Ten seconds before the queue started, the students seemed a little confused, but Liu Gen didn't care too much, and this chaos was still within the scope he could accept.
"It's not bad, I haven't found a reason to punish you." Liu Gen said with a faint smile.
The students immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They looked at the instructor Liu Gen with a little more pride. Even if Liu Gen was strict and could not find their problems, they naturally could not punish them. The students were a little excited. They were standing in the queue and became more serious. They didn't want Liu Gen to find any problems from them and punish them.
Working hard to do better, the instructor Liu Gen has no choice but to do with them. The students have become more interested in training, and their training seems to have become a confrontation with the instructor Liu Gen! With the goal of Liu Gen unable to find any problems, the students have more enthusiasm for daily training, and the training no longer seems so boring.
"Instructor! Instructor! We are back!" Just as Liu Gen was about to start training for the students again, the punished students ran back to the training ground. The students did not run back to the training ground quickly, but they did not stop. These students knew their own situation clearly. If they really stopped halfway, they would probably fall down and could not get up again.
In order to be able to complete Liu Gen's punishment for them within the specified time, these students tried their best when they were carrying heavy-bearing off-road. No one chose to be sloppy. They ran the twenty kilometers seriously according to Liu Gen's requirements. Now they returned to the training ground, which was even earlier than Liu Gen's prescribed.
Liu Gen looked at the students who had successfully returned to the training ground, and obvious surprise appeared in his eyes. He did not expect these students to run back in such a short time. In Liu Gen's view, as long as these students could run back within the time he set, he would let them stay in the artillery school. Even when he returned to the training ground, there was only one second left.
But now, seeing these students successfully returning to the training ground, Liu Gen's mood was a bit complicated. He felt proud of these students and asked whether the punishment was a little too heavy.
With Liu Gen's eyesight, he could clearly see the situation of these students. He could see the legs of these students trembling constantly. Obviously, 20 kilometers of cross-country cross-country is not a joke. At the same time, Liu Gen could also see that these students' faces were very pale, as if they could faint at any time.
But even though these students were in a bad condition, they still gritted their teeth and persevered. They did not stop their steps and supported each other and walked towards the training ground.
The students in the training ground were extremely silent when they looked at all this. They looked at these students, but their faces did not change much. The punishment from the instructor Liu Gen was entirely because these students made mistakes. If Liu Gen was really stricter, then these students would definitely be directly expelled from the artillery school.
Now these students have not been expelled from the artillery school, but have been punished by Liu Gen and can continue to stay in the artillery school. So everything these students have done is worth it.
Unlike Liu Gen, the students did not have much thought. Perhaps the condition of these students made people feel distressed, but the students still maintained enough rationality. They knew what kind of behavior these students would be when Liu Gen was away. If there was a problem and was caught by Liu Gen, they could only blame themselves for being useless.
Liu Gen looked at the students running towards the training ground and his expression returned to calm. After completing their punishment, these students could naturally continue to stay in the artillery school. But Liu Gen hoped that this was their last mistake. He wanted to train enough artillery for the 129th Division, but this did not mean that Liu Gen would always give them a chance.
As an instructor and the agent of the artillery school, no matter what decision Liu Gen makes, there will be no big problems.
Without letting Liu Gen and the students wait too long, the punished students successfully returned to the team. They gritted their teeth and tried to maintain their own state and avoid fainting on the training ground. With these students' states, it is undoubtedly quite sleepy to continue training with other academies, but they did not ask Liu Gen for leave, so Liu Gen would naturally not let them leave the queue.
"Very good! Now you are all here!"
"I want to tell you that since you have entered the artillery school, you should understand that there is no time to rest here! No matter when and where, you must strictly demand yourself, and let me find that someone is not ready to come for training. Don't blame my subordinates for being merciless!" Liu Gen said loudly, with a cold face.
The students were shocked. Without Liu Gen's reminder again, they knew what to do. Today, these students were punished for being late. Next time, Liu Gen would probably not give any chance! Most students realized this. Even students who did not understand clearly knew what to do when they felt the solemn atmosphere.
"Now let's run five laps in the training ground to warm up and prepare for this morning's training! When the warm-up is over, I will take everyone to have breakfast directly!"
Liu Gen and the students ran again in the training ground. This time, the students were no longer carrying any weights. The training ground of the artillery school was not large. These five circles were really like warm-up for the students. Without the weights, the students were much more relaxed, and most of them could keep up with the footsteps of Liu Gen, the instructor.
Unless some students with weak physical fitness, other students can keep up with Liu Gen's footsteps, and Liu Gen does not have many requirements for these students.
Running five laps in the training ground is a simple warm-up before meals, in order to keep the students in training and make them mentally prepared accordingly. Today's training will not be easy.
After five rounds, Liu Gen took the students to have breakfast. The breakfast was not rich, and it could even be said to be a bit simple. However, the students after the training were particularly satisfied. The breakfast was a bit simple, but every student could eat enough. This has been regarded as a paradise by most students. Such a life is so beautiful.
Among the Eighth Route Army troops, what the soldiers want most is to have a full meal every day. As long as they can have a full meal, the soldiers can devote themselves to training with enthusiasm. This situation is also because most of the Eighth Route Army soldiers were poor farmers. In such a war era, coupled with the many natural disasters in recent years, it is not easy for them to have a full meal.
Liu Gen ate very quickly. After he finished eating, most of the students only ate one-third of them.
After delivering the bowl to the soldiers in the kitchen, Liu Gen quickly walked towards the training ground. He could feel that the students were a little unrestrained when he was there. Liu Gen was also a little helpless about this. Who made him have too strict requirements for the students? In the eyes of the students, Liu Gen was particularly majestic. When Liu Gen was there, they naturally felt a little restrained.
After Liu Gen left, the students started talking and all of them relaxed.
Back at the training ground, Liu Gen took out the pistol at his waist, and he found that his pistol seemed to have life. He aimed casually, three points and one line, and Liu Gen found that he was in a very good condition. Even if he did not shoot, he was still sure that he could easily hit the target in his sight.
After putting the pistol away again, Liu Gen was very satisfied with the pistol mastery (top level). As an artillery, the pistol must be the weapon he carried with him. As for rifles and submachine guns, Liu Gen naturally could not carry them with him. In battle, he must have to control artillery to attack the Japanese.
Unless Liu Gen wants to fight the Japanese with bayonets, he should not easily go to the front line to fight with the Japanese. Liu Gen doesn't care about his life and death. He just doesn't want other soldiers to suffer unnecessary casualties due to his own reasons.
Considering that it will take a certain amount of time for the students to return to the training ground, Liu Gen simply carried a heavy load and did push-ups on the training ground. With his physique, he could naturally do hundreds of push-ups easily. Immersed in doing push-ups, Liu Gen counted silently in his mind, how many push-ups he wanted to do before reaching the limit.
When a student returned to the training ground, he was stunned when he saw the instructor Liu Gen doing push-ups. They found that Liu Gen seemed to work harder than them in training. Looking at Liu Gen who was constantly doing push-ups, the students seemed to understand why Liu Gen was able to become a "cannon god". There was still too far apart from Liu Gen.
In the eyes of the students, the instructor Liu Gen is powerful, excellent, and very capable.
When Liu Gen, who is better than them and more powerful than them, worked harder than them, the students were quite shocked. They didn't understand what was supporting Liu Gen to do this. Is it really necessary to have such high requirements for themselves? Compared with Liu Gen, these students have not experienced life and death, and they have not felt what the time of death will look like.
Liu Gen is different. He is young, but he has also experienced a lot of battles and has left many scars on Liu Gen. These scars are medals left by Liu Gen in the battle. Liu Gen, who has experienced a lot of battles and multiple injuries, knows clearly the importance of strength, clearly knows that he needs to be extremely strict with himself, and needs to make himself stronger!
