Chapter 1055: Her Growth, Fearless!
Before the winter break, Xia Jinyuan and Principal Chen had a talk at night. After sending Ye Jian back, Xia Jinyuan went to visit this world-class sniper voluntarily. He told Principal Chen his intention of grooming Ye Jian into an ace soldier.
Principal Chen didn’t reject his suggestion. Instead, he agreed with Xia Jinyuan without any hesitation.
Ye Jian had many capabilities. After interacting with her for a long time, you would realize that her abilities were exceptional and her adaptability was strong. You would also see her perseverance that was entirely different from her delicate appearance.
She was like a tree, towering proudly above the rest;
She was like the sea, vast and boundless;
She was like a well, deep and fathomless;
The people that taught her cherished her more and more because of her talent. They wanted to teach her all the knowledge in the world. Sometimes, they felt worried if they were able to succeed as her teacher! That was because her speed of absorbing knowledge astounded everyone that taught her.
From military maps to military commands and military tactics, Ye Jian’s inferno training was like a tale of two worlds compared to her normal training. It was crazy but it allowed her to learn things she never knew before.
Principal Chen was surprised by Ye Jian’s learning ability while Ye Jian was astounded by Principal Chen’s knowledge.
“Tactics is known as ‘the art of using soldiers’ or ‘the art of commanding’. Based on the different kinds of combats, we can segregate tactics into two main groups: offense and defense. Looking at the military units and soldiers participating in the combat, tactics can be split into unit tactics, arms tactics, and combined tactics. Using the combat mode, we can also group the tactics into regiment tactics, army tactics, and unit tactics.”
After an afternoon of inferno training, when Ye Jian walked into the Central-East mountain area in Hainan, what welcomed her wasn’t the sun. It was a drizzle. She wore a camouflage cape raincoat as she sat under a wide banana leaf. She pursed her lips slightly as she listened to Principal Chen attentively.
In her eyes, the world-class sniper, Principal Chen, was a walking military encyclopedia. He knew everything, from military tactics to military commands.
Now, he was talking about military tactics. This allowed Ye Jian to enter another realm altogether. She was very interested in the different types and forms of tactics.
“During combat, whether it’s offense or defense, we need to establish a fearless mindset of destroying our enemies proactively. We cannot be afraid of sacrifices and we need to have the determination to fight bravely. However, Jian, you must remember that the country didn’t groom you so that you can sacrifice. You need to be prepared to sacrifice but your ultimate goal is to destroy your enemies!”
“In every combat, you must protect yourself. You must increase the number of attacks and defensive disruption on your enemy’s high-technology weapons and equipment! A commander needs to be well-organized and thorough. He needs to make ample preparations and needs to know how to assess the situation and be flexible with his tactics.”
“You are commanding at the back but there are millions of soldiers charging in front. Every step they take is due to your decision. The commander might be at the back but he has a huge responsibility! You must never make any unrealistic deployments! Once you make this huge mistake, millions of soldiers will be sacrificed! It won’t be just one soldier.”
“Jian, you must always remember that combat requires coordination. Once the coordination is broken, you must fix it as soon as possible to lower the death rate to its lowest! Victory can only be guaranteed when you take comprehensive precaution!”
The commander was the soul and brain of the entire military unit. Without the commander, the soldiers would be like a pile of scattered sand. They wouldn’t have any combat ability. After listening to this one and a half-hour lesson, Ye Jian felt strongly that being a commander wasn’t easy!
