War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 58 Dagger Exercise (Thanks to 'G Dream Walk' for another 500 reward!)
"Although there are eight movements in dagger training, the essence of the movements is only two, and these two essences are 'blocking and killing'..."

It was a sunny morning and the collapsed houses in the village had not yet been dealt with. Xu Chaoyang, holding the bayonet in his hand, had already started another round of training. This round was about close combat.

He planned to equip each of his men with a dagger in the future, so that they could use it when they got into a fierce battle and fought with bayonets.

Now that it has come to the point of a bayonet fight, if the gun falls out of my hand, the dagger becomes the only weapon to save my life. Is it okay if I don't know how to use it?
At this time, Xu Chaoyang remembered the "dagger exercise" that he practiced daily in the army. Yes, it was the kind that he saw the soldiers practicing on TV.

So, what are the advantages of dagger drills over bayonet fighting?

It's very simple. A dagger is closer than a bayonet. When using a dagger, you have to find ways to get close to the opponent, so you can't be timid.

Once they understand this principle, when you teach them how to fight with a bayonet, the people under you will understand that as long as you are face to face with the enemy, a Japanese soldier with a bayonet can at most give you a punch, but you will actually stab him with a real knife.

Xu Chaoyang stretched out his hand and unbuttoned his shirt. When his solid muscles were completely exposed to the sun, he explained to his men: "I will now tell you where the key parts of the human body are. If you get hit on any of them, you will instantly lose your combat effectiveness, and then..."

The way he teaches the dagger exercise is different from that of others. When other squad leaders in the army teach this set of movements, they basically ask you to memorize them and perform them in standard ways.

Xu Chaoyang will tell you where the important parts of the human body are first, and then tell you where each move of the dagger maneuver is aimed at. After understanding these, no matter whether your opponent is tall or short, you will know how to deal with it.

Swish, swish, swish.

Xu Chaoyang was pointing his finger at his heart and was about to analyze the first move of the dagger exercise, which was to block and then hit the opponent's heart with the tip of the dagger, when several women ran out from the wooden house in the village.

As if they had discussed it beforehand, they lined up in another row behind Yu Minghao according to their size and stood there very seriously. Even the pregnant woman stood at the end of the line, holding her belly.

"What are you doing?" Yu Minghao turned around and asked.

Liu Gener replied, "We are training, don't make trouble."

"Who's causing trouble? We need to train too!"

Qu Yong turned around and said, "Do you know what dagger drill is? This is a life-threatening business!"

"You don't even know what the Eight Movements are. Aren't you just being ridiculous? I don't think you can move it." After saying that, he turned around and laughed happily: "Hahahaha..." as if he had won a victory.

"Boss!" A woman in the back row shouted at Xu Chaoyang, "He humiliated me!"

Hearing the word "I", Xu Chaoyang almost understood the identity of this woman. He guessed that her family had come from Northeast China and their accent had not yet been changed.

But Xu Chaoyang didn't show any sympathy for the woman: "I humiliated you, so what?"

He really didn't make any sense: "If someone raises a gun and shoots at you or uses artillery to bombard you, will you ask me to solve the problem for you?"

The woman didn't even wait to feel wronged. Xu Chaoyang immediately looked at Qu Yong and said, "You and your mother, your sister, and your younger sister, are always picking on this and that?"

"Brother..." Qu Yong smiled embarrassedly.

"Let me ask you, do you and your mother joke like this?"

Qu Yong stopped talking, all the expressions on his face were gone, and he shut his mouth obediently.

"Push-ups, fifty!"

Swish.

The men in the front row all lay on the ground. Yu Minghao angrily scolded, "You're the only one who keeps talking nonsense!"

While the others were doing push-ups, Xu Chaoyang looked at the women and said, "This is a gang. In the gang, women have to stay in the man's world. Do you think these things are not enough?"

"We restrain them from talking to our faces, can I restrain them from talking behind their backs?" "When you were not around, I also said that men discussing women and women discussing men, if this is considered a big deal and you don't have the ability to handle it, then don't stay here."

Xu Chaoyang didn't want to be so cruel, nor was he deliberately excluding anyone, but for a group of women to stay in a man's world, this was what they had to experience.

He also lay on the ground and just did a push-up before looking up at the group of women: "You don't want to stay again?"

The women seemed to understand what he said, and they all knelt on the ground like Xu Chaoyang did. When the pregnant woman was about to lower her body, Xu Chaoyang said, "Pregnant women don't need to do that."

The woman seemed quite stubborn, as if she didn't want to lose face: "I..."

"I said pregnant women don't have to participate in training, obey orders!"

"one!"

As soon as Xu Chaoyang called out the number, Yu Minghao was stunned: "Brother, I have already reached twenty?"

"two!"

Xu Chaoyang ignored him and didn't promise any privileges to the women. He led everyone to lie on the ground and do push-ups. Even though he saw two women unable to hold their bodies, he still ignored him.

respect?

Sorry, Xu Chaoyang doesn't have this thing. You have to master the skill and then go to the battlefield to ask for it from the enemy.

Do you want the army to be your parents, and do you want to gain respect through blood ties or by acting like a spoiled brat?
Sorry, you may have come to the wrong place!

"forty nine!"

After Xu Chaoyang deliberately lay on the ground and shouted out this number, he did not get up for a long time. He watched the women fall down again and again, and even Yu Minghao began to stagger after supporting himself. Then he shouted, "Fifty!"

When he stood up again, there was no movement around him.

Qu Yong was so tired that his face turned red, and he was panting heavily; Liu Gener was huffing and puffing like a cow with his mouth closed; Yu Minghao was shaking his sore arms; only Tong Meng was different, this scholar was lying on the ground and hadn't gotten up yet...

"Hey... huh, huh... don't play dead... huh, huh."

Liu Gener panted and kicked the scholar, saying, "If you cause me to get punished again, the training is over. I will really beat you up!"

bass.

Tong Meng felt that these words were more effective than Xu Chaoyang's orders. He still remembered the scene by the campfire when Liu Gener pulled out a knife and was about to stab someone.

"Dagger drill, double-click activation when shaking your feet... ha!"

Xu Chaoyang continued to explain the dagger exercise. He didn't need to think about it at all. It was as if it had been integrated into his blood. He could use it with just a wave of his hand. This was a habit he had acquired during his years of military career...

"You, shake your feet harder!"

"You, you didn't turn enough!"

"Can't you find where the fucking heart is!!!"

Xu Chaoyang would curse at anyone, regardless of whether they were a man or a woman, as long as they didn't do the right thing. But until this moment, he still hadn't figured out how to deal with these women.

　Thanks to my old friend 'G梦行' for the 500 reward again. Thank you very much.
