Chapter 252 Misunderstanding
It is unrealistic to expect this deserted village located halfway up the mountain to be eliminated in a short period of time.
As mentioned before, it is not easy to transport materials in the mountains, which will undoubtedly greatly slow down the entire construction speed.
"Anyway, let's build a base deep in the mountains to make do."
The construction of the new village has started, but it is unclear whether it can be completed within the next year.
But Zhou Xu couldn't just leave such a large piece of land unattended before the new village was built.
Zhou Xu obviously didn't care about the camps of the primitive tribe at all. The real thing was for them to build a stronghold first to facilitate the garrison of soldiers here and the work of the later construction team.
After giving instructions for all the things that needed to be done, Zhou Xu had just finished breakfast and was thinking about today's plans when Shi Lei came to him.
"leader!"
"What's the matter so early in the morning?"
Looking at Shi Lei who came over, Zhou Xu really couldn't guess Shi Lei's purpose at this moment.
In this regard, Shi Lei was not ambiguous and directly stated...
"Chief, I came here this time to ask you for advice on how to train soldiers."
Hearing this, Zhou Xu suddenly understood.
Both sides are professional soldiers who receive salaries. Except for the soldiers in Huangshan Village who are trained by Shi Lei due to the distance, the other soldiers are actually trained under Zhou Xu's supervision.
Now it is clear how big the gap in strength between the soldiers on both sides is.
Shi Lei was also puzzled by this problem.
It just so happened that the soldiers had almost rested at this moment. Thinking that if there was nothing else, they would have to slowly resume their daily training, Shi Lei hurried to Zhou Xu for advice.
"Tell me first, how do you arrange training plans for them on weekdays?"
After hearing this, Shi Lei didn't hesitate and started talking immediately.
Zhou Xu had only heard half of it when he already knew where the problem lay with Shi Lei.
Simply put, the training direction is not right! Think about it carefully, ordinary primitive people, just to survive every day has been trying their best, in their world, the concept of "training" basically does not exist.
This also led to Shi Lei and his team not knowing how to train soldiers at all.
After all this, among this group of people, the one who had the most ideas regarding the issue of "training soldiers" was Zhou Xu.
Zhou Xu himself was actually aware of this, so he specifically asked a messenger to pass a message to Shi Lei, informing him of some of his training ideas and thoughts.
Of course, considering that the two sides have different geographical environments and situations during the actual training, they must make adjustments based on the actual situation. So when passing on the message, Zhou Xu did not forget to add a sentence "Make appropriate adjustments based on your own situation."
Now here comes the question.
There are errors in the understanding between people!
From the moment Zhou Xu asked the messenger to pass on the message, there was already a subtle misunderstanding on the part of the messenger about what he had instructed.
In addition, as time goes by, this error becomes even larger to a certain extent. What is finally conveyed to Shi Lei and displayed after Shi Lei understands it may be very different from what Zhou Xu wanted to convey at the beginning.
What is Zhou Xu's idea of training soldiers? First, he trained the soldiers' obedience, then physical training. Weapon training was based on simple and direct attacking moves, and a large number of repetitive training was carried out in order to allow the soldiers to develop muscle memory.
The development of muscle memory is the key!
But when it came to Shi Lei, he didn't know which link had a problem, and the focus of his training became actual combat sparring.
There’s nothing wrong with actual sparring, but there’s a problem.
That is, everyone knows that your training opponent will not threaten your life, and you cannot create the tension of a fight in this kind of training.
Muscle memory is to ensure that even if your condition is seriously impaired after you go into battle, you can still perform stably to a certain extent. In essence, it is a layer of protection, and ordinary actual combat training cannot achieve this effect.
At this moment, Zhou Xu also talked about this matter seriously with Shi Lei. In the end, he simply took the initiative to help him develop a training plan.
The main training content is actually very similar to that in Caoyuan Village.
The difference is that in combination with the mountain environment, Zhou Xu added mountain cross-country and related mountain combat training to the training of the soldiers here.
"Have you written it all down? Tell me again."
"yes!"
As he spoke, Shi Lei carefully repeated the training content that their leader had told him. After making sure it was correct, Zhou Xu nodded.
"Are you planning to start training right away?"
"Yes."
"Okay, I'll help you watch over this round of training to prevent any more mistakes. Let's go."
After saying that, Zhou Xu followed Shi Lei to watch him train his troops.
The training started quickly. After Zhou Xu confirmed that there were no mistakes in the training content, he began to think about other things.
[Shi Lei's incident this time exposed a big problem with verbal communication. This method of transmitting information is prone to errors. The longer the message content and the farther the distance, the greater the probability of error. It is obviously not a solution to continue like this.]
[But this problem cannot be solved unless it is upgraded to written communication...]
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu couldn't help but reveal a look of headache on his face.
The biggest problem with correspondence is that both parties need to be able to read and write.
However, although the primitive people were able to basically recognize numbers under his teaching, it was too difficult to teach them to recognize words and write.
[Speaking of which, how did I learn to read when I was a child? ]
Zhou Xu tried hard to recall.
[It seems like it started with learning pinyin? ]
But this kind of thing happened so long ago that he hardly has any recollection of it now.
In this situation, he was asked to teach a group of primitive people to read and write? He had no idea where to start. He really had no idea at all! Just when Zhou Xu was having a headache, Shi Lei came over with a worried look on his face.
Looking at their leader's uncertain expression, he couldn't help but ask cautiously...
"Chief, is there any problem with the training arrangement?"
Hearing this, Zhou Xu suddenly came back to his senses. After taking a look at the soldiers training in the distance, he set his sights on Shi Lei, who had a nervous expression.
At this moment, Zhou Xu realized that Shi Lei had misunderstood him and quickly waved his hands.
"No, no, there is no problem with the training. I was just thinking about other things. You can train the soldiers according to this training method first. When you have experience in the future, you can make appropriate adjustments yourself."
"yes!"
