Chapter 138 The Courage to Face It
In the past, Lin En's impression of hand-to-hand bayonet fighting on the battlefield was that of various anti-Japanese dramas, with full visual effects of opening and closing, swinging the gun butt 180 degrees, and one person slashing for more than a dozen hours at a time... Japanese people who have lived a good life as a kid, they want to show off their dodges and moves like those in martial arts movies.
Ever since, Linn, who faced Frank with this idea, was beaten for a long time before she sadly changed her mind.
It wasn't just the sharp pain of the bayonet on the chainmail.
The various moves of this lame old man are particularly insidious. Once he gets close to him, he will hit with his knees, elbows, and kicks, specifically targeting various weak points of the human body. Of course, he will only attack such fatal points as the face, throat, and crotch. As long as he knows how to order, Linn will inevitably suffer from a bruised nose, swollen face, and body aches.
If it weren't for [Flower Maker]'s ability to basically heal his injuries in one night, Lin En would probably have hidden injuries in the next few days.
After Frank discovered Lynn's strong self-healing ability, he became more relaxed.
What he taught Lin En was actually four words: fast, accurate, ruthless, and small. Shoot quickly, stab accurately, move small, and have a ruthless momentum. As for things like positioning to dodge, cooperating with his comrades to assassinate, and how to adjust the gun body more smoothly so as not to be blocked by trenches, Linn had no need for these, and he did not deliberately teach them.
Lynn’s resilience is great.
It was so good that Frank could hardly see any wolfishness in him, but after being knocked down once by Lynn with an innocent look, the lame old man knew that this guy's ruthlessness was hidden under his deceptive appearance.
For Linn, the biggest gain these days should be the basic skills of the bottom plate.
With super memory, the little gentleman can easily figure out what the instructor's lower body skills are like. In fact, it is the movement of crossing the front fencing. When fighting with a bayonet, you can't walk, and there will be flaws when you walk. They are all light and small movements by pushing on the ground with the soles of the feet. In fact, it extends to the kicking skills of modern fighting.
As for the techniques, such as preventing the left from stabbing the left, and preventing the right from stabbing the right, the essence is to use both hands in opposite directions to save the conflict of one's own strength to the greatest extent. Preventing a left-handed shot and a right-handed shot is a powerful move to open the gun butt, but it does not prevent a right-handed shot from hitting the left. The reason is very simple. The butt of a right-hander cannot swing against the human body.
Is it useful to learn these things?
Lin En's blue eyes used to be as warm as spring water, and they had a fierce intensity, but that intensity was a bit like rootless duckweeds, appearing and disappearing with the emergence of crises.
But after a few days, although Lin En's eyes still looked modest and gentle, there was a forward-looking determination in his eyes. The so-called sharpness, to put it bluntly, is the intention to make others feel threatened, and the same is true for murderous intention. Linn was stabbed too many times, and when she looked at others, she subconsciously had the intention of how to attack.
This kind of gaze reflected on a man is masculine, not afraid of pain and darkness!
Because of this, Sofia, a person who lives on the street, can clearly feel that her brother has become a lot more aggressive recently.
"stop."
Frank yelled, deflecting Lynn's probing deception thrust.
"What's wrong?" Linn stopped and wiped his sweaty face.
"Have you not discovered your problem yet?" Frank frowned. Linn has been doing well these days. He has also taken some care of this little guy. At least his niece's eyesight is not too bad.
"where?"
"You learn quickly, faster than many people I have seen, but your bayonet skills have not improved since the third day, because you are only practicing, not killing." This man is covered in glory and scars The retired military officer immediately pointed out Lynn's dilemma.
"I can't really stab you to death, instructor."
Lin En was helpless, this problem had no solution. The vast majority of soldiers have not practiced well, so they go to the battlefield and use the blood of the enemy to take a step further.
Frank suddenly felt a little depressed.
"That's right, you can use your injury to replace my life on my right side." His right leg was injured and was not flexible, and his right side was not very powerful. This smart little guy had already figured it out. Bayonet technique requires not only skill, but also strength. With obvious weaknesses, one can easily be exhausted and wait to die.
"Well, that's not what I meant..."
The young gentleman felt that he had hurt the instructor and was suddenly embarrassed.
"That's it. You are just a bloodbath away from becoming a qualified soldier." Frank's anger couldn't help but show up. He looked at Linn and smiled happily. This was the first time for this retired officer to Smile in front of him.
Although a little ugly and scary, it was obvious that he was having a great time these days.
It's like going back to the military days.
"I'm very grateful for your teachings these days." Linn still respects this old guy very much. Although he has a bit of a temper and is merciless during training, he answers every question and points out his shortcomings immediately. Of course, more importantly, this is the uncle of the female boss, and he must remain polite no matter what.
"It would be nice to spend more time with Evenie and spend more time with this old man like me."
After taking a look at Linn's delicate yet sharp facial features, Frank still recognized Linn a little arrogantly as a good man.
Just a little slow.
"I will definitely visit when I have time." Lin En did not understand the deep meaning of the instructor's words. He just thought that this old man who would tell him battlefield stories during breaks was very nice, and his [Flower Maker] ability seemed to be able to help to relieve some of his hidden wounds.
It's really slow.
The hideous scar on Frank's mouth twitched twice, and he left a little bleakly without saying anything more. He was an officer who retired from the battlefield early due to injuries. Now that the war is over, he, an old soldier, has not been able to find his place in this complex society for so long.
Lin En looked at the limping back of Mr. Frank, and felt a little sad in his heart. The destruction of war on a person is really severe. Ye Funi said that her uncle Frank used to be a very popular handsome officer. A nobleman is like this, what about those civilian officers and soldiers who retired with the end of the war?
"Old soldiers don't die, they just wither. The five-star general said this, but he used the flesh and blood of retired veterans to lubricate the tracks of the suppression tanks. There may be a first-class strong army in this era, but there may not be a real military soul. Without a soul, it means it is a tool, and it may be thrown away by the masters after use."
Somewhat uncontrollably, Lin En thought of the people's soldiers who forged the military soul.
Well, he missed his hometown and was crazy.
There is no trace of the Red Flag's ideology in this world, so how can there be such an army that even a person like me who is afraid of death is willing to join.
"How about preparing a social survey questionnaire for retired soldiers?" Lin En touched his chin and suddenly laughed in an ambiguous way. He is essentially the biggest troublemaker, and he thinks about whether to prepare some surprises for the masters according to his buttocks. There are always people who will think about and do some things.
When Lin En's rebellious thoughts sprouted and he was considering giving surprises to the noble masters, his surprise was finally completed successfully.
