A Mistaken Marriage Match: A Generation of Military Counselor Chapter 3.2

Chapter 3: The evil army trainer, Part 2 of 5

Hands behind her back, Gu Yun still in moderate voice, said: “Today the training has only three components; the first, training to resist attack; the second, combat training; and the third, rock climbing training.”

Not surprisingly, eyes both questioning and puzzled were riveted on her, Gu Yun looked pleased after saying this, the corner of her lips slightly lifted, she continued: “I have always been a very upfront person, before the training, if you have any questions you can ask them now, but once the training has started, I do not want to see any hesitation. Whoever has something to ask, raises his hand, I’ll go to him, and he can speak.”

Gu Yun looked around, under her calm gaze unexpectedly n.o.body put up his hand, after a good while, it seems somebody has mustered up the courage, a dark, strong young man raised his hand.

Gu Yun looked to his direction, said: “You.”

Taking a deep breath, the man’s clear voice resounded, said: “Considering that this is army training, you do not teach us the battlefield’s technique of fighting, or formations of troops deployment, ordering us to run around here and there this way, such running exercise drill is a thing unheard of, what is the reason?”

They are not afraid to train hard, but they do not want to learn some useless techniques, furthermore after a half month they do not want to suffer an ugly defeat! These were not just the inner thoughts of all the soldiers, but also Han Shu had his misgivings, what she just said of the three components of the training, never have they been taught before to new army recruits.

“Firstly, everything should have a target and a purpose, this half-a-month training is intended for the night raid battle, I don’t mean to imply you need not practice on battlefield fighting skills and troops deployment formations, but that is not the focus of this training; secondly, the content of my training, each of them is designed to enhance your combat skills, so you can adapt to the needs of a night raid war in the short term, turning you into elites among the elites.” Gu Yun naturally knew the train of their thoughts, or else she would not have let them raise questions. She wants them not only to agree verbally, but also to be deeply convinced!

Gu Yun’s sincere and detailed explanation relieved some of the endless pain the men suffered from yesterday.

Han Shu’s fierce eyes arched, she and Su Yu are competing in a night raid?! What a big dare, even Su Yu may not be able to train the group of new recruits in half a month to gain enough ability to cope in a night raid, let alone she? Just listening to her larger scheme of things, as a matter of fact he’d like to see also how she’s going to train these recruits.

The dark, strong man nodded clearly understanding the point, but afterwards puzzled he again asked: “What is the training to resist attack? Are we not supposed to learn how to attack the enemy, don’t tell us that we still must learn how to avoid getting hit by a person?” Although they have not spoken, the others also expressed their confusion by nodding their heads.

As they all waited to hear her explanation, who knew she would smile faintly, held out her hand, facing the dark, strong man her index finger lightly hooked, and said: “You, out of the line.”

Bewildered he walked in front of Gu Yun, yet not standing still. Gu Yun suddenly approached him, lightly jumped up, her right arm bent, ruthlessly hitting the pit of the man’s neck with her elbow.

“Ah!” Screaming pitifully his neck almost dislocated the pain brought him crouching on the ground. Anyone calling into question her method of training would be beaten! A lot of the young and vigorous recruits cannot stand it anymore, clenched their hands into fists, but Gu Yun just looked at the man on the ground with indifference, asked: “Did it hurt?”

“It hurt a lot!” His neck is almost broken.

Partly bending her body, Gu Yun coldly said: “I only hit you with my arm, my hands even unarmed, what if I continuously pummel you with my fists, or possibly my hands holding a stick or even a sword, doing it until you die. Don’t talk big of defending the country, when you cannot even defend your own life!”

The strong, dark soldier held his neck, slowly got up and stood ashamed on the side.

Turning to face all the soldiers, Gu Yun continued: “As a soldier, when you confront the opponent you must a.s.sess the level of his ability, when you face a strong opponent, to attack is not to your advantage, in that case preserve your strength, make yourself less vulnerable, to exhaust the strength of the opponent while scheming to counterattack is the key to your victory.” Her cold and detached voice not at all loud, made these just a moment ago still doubtful soldiers somewhat ashamed, they could only bow their heads in shame. It’s true they appeared to have questioned her training method, but gradually, they found, what she was saying, seemed to make some sense.

For the first time, Leng Xiao surprisingly raised his hand, Gu Yun nodded to him, motioned for him to speak.

“How can one resist an attack?” There are moves on how to attack, but how does one practice how to defend attacks?

Gu Yun raised her eyebrows, smiled and said: “This you will understand in a little while.”

Looking up towards everyone, she asked once more: “Are there any more questions?”

This time n.o.body was stupid to again dare speak out.

“Very well, now we begin the first training.”

Peng – 　　peng –

m.u.f.fled sounds of ramming, hitting flesh and the blowing dust, within the forest is a tragic scene to behold. This time Leng Xiao finally realized, why Gu Yun’s smile a while ago seemed so weird, in the future the more she smiles and appears amiable, the more they have to be wary!

Within the huge forest, two people stood before each tree, they looked miserable gritting their teeth and enduring bitter pain, while kicking the tree trunk with their legs over and over again. Even though it hurt so terribly, such that they broke out in cold sweats, they did not dare to groan, because in comparison there were others even in worse situation than they were. On the other side a little flat muddy ground, each well-built, tall figure jumped and hopped over a high mound of ground, but using the back of his body to land in the ground. Each landing ferociously hammering with his back the muddy ground, fine pebbles were also embedded in the mud, a shallow pit was already formed in the repeatedly pounded ground!

Han Shu’s pair of fierce eyes was in a daze, staring at the scene before him, she’s actually exercising their bodies this way, and if in long-term they continue to exercise like this, this group of people will definitely have skins like copper and bones like iron! Not far away quietly but a.s.siduously monitoring them was a black-clad woman, she stood in the midst of them, through the clouds of dust, one cannot make out the expression on her face, but her rigid and upright stance all the same faintly showed through eliciting the men’s ire.

After an hour.

“Stop, rest for thirty minutes.”

As before her voice was cold and low, but to the already half-dead soldiers, it sounded really soothing. Nearly at the same time, everyone’s b.u.t.t fell to the ground, their bodies felt numb to pain, at the moment they truly all felt like dying.

Watching them sitting on the ground, their lips dry and cracked, these young lads sweating like pigs, Gu Yun was in no hurry to get them lined up, her face relaxed, she laughed: “Training on resisting attack will become a routine training within these two weeks, today for the time being it’s enough.”

After listening to her words, many people turned green in the face, their legs are still intolerably sore and swollen, now their backs are burning hot in great pain, today’s only the second day, they do not know if they still have life to hang on two weeks later. Before they even finish lamenting their fate, Gu Yun’s voice rang out again: “Line up!”
