A small disturbance turned into an ideological education class through Zhou Wen's words and deeds. The effect was surprisingly good. It not only eliminated the brothers' estrangement and dissatisfaction with the new officers, but also let everyone know that they were in this team. positioning and role in the industry, and at the same time full of confidence and motivation for future development and growth.
Of course, although Zhang Xiaoping, Xu Dacheng and Ergazi all sincerely reviewed their actions and apologized to Meng Yuting and the others in person, the punishment they deserved cannot be escaped.
Zhou Wen raised his hand and looked at the time and said: "It's half past two at noon. Everyone is here. We will immediately start an armed cross-country march with heavy loads. The target is Qingyuan County, 20 kilometers away. By the way, we will buy some wine and meat for the newly reported officers. Jie Feng. Return to the military camp before six o'clock in the afternoon."
"Yes!" All the team members stood at attention and shouted.
"Who is that? Senior brother and Brother Shanzi are supervising the whole process. You can set off now. On the way back, someone will divide Uncle Ma's equipment. He is old and can only carry one load on one side."
Gao Xiaoshan and Miaohua looked at each other and smiled bitterly. This was Zhou Wen blaming them for not understanding Zhou Wen's painstaking efforts and indulging the brothers in their mischief. They also loudly accepted orders at the moment.
Just like that, while Meng Yuting and the others were stunned, forty-nine officers, fully equipped and wearing robes weighing at least thirty kilograms, lined up in neat formation and ran towards the outside of the training ground. In just a moment, they Disappeared from everyone's sight.
Carrying a weight of 30 kilograms, it takes three and a half hours to run a total of 40 kilometers of mountainous terrain, including going to the city to sell meat and buy wine. Mules are not that good in physical fitness, right?
Moreover, looking at the expressions on the faces of these humanoid mules, they feel as natural as eating and drinking. Is this still human? Meng Yuting and others looked at each other in shock.
Zhou Wen smiled and explained to Meng Yuting and the others: "It's okay. This kind of physical training must be very difficult for ordinary soldiers, but for the brothers of the mercenary group, it is commonplace, and it is far from reaching their limits."
Meng Yuting asked tentatively: "Sir Zhou, why are only a few people making mistakes and others have to be punished accordingly? Is there anyone who is dissatisfied?"
Zhou Wen chuckled and said: "Brother Yuting, we don't need to be so outspoken. From now on, you can all call me scholar. This is also my nickname in the mercenary group. As for the others, including the two deputy captains, they all have Joint and several liability for poor management and supervision. I just want to tell the brothers that every word, deed, and action of each of us is related to the collective honor and reputation of the mercenary group.
The mercenary group is not mine, Zhou Wen's, but was built by everyone's joint efforts. It is our home and must be maintained and cherished by everyone. If one person makes a mistake, the whole team is punished; if one person makes a contribution, the whole team is honored. This is the foundation of our mercenary group. This is also for you, after all, we will be a family from now on. "
Meng Yuting and the others also nodded silently and accepted the instruction.
Then Zhou Wen said to everyone again: "Brothers, after you reported to me in the barracks today, I will never treat you as outsiders. Time is very tight now. I estimate that according to the Japanese's current smooth sailing in the Northeast, I'm afraid that They will develop a more arrogant mentality and greater ambition. They are afraid that they will cause trouble in a short period of time, and they will also want to push further and continue to test our country's bottom line. So I hope that we can come in handy in the next Sino-Japanese dispute. "
When Meng Yuting and the others heard this, their hearts tightened and they felt inexplicably excited. They all stood at attention solemnly, waiting for Zhou Wen's order.
Zhou Wen was very satisfied with their performance. They were all good men who wanted to serve their country and kill their enemies.
Then he said: "I also hope that you will no longer regard yourself as an outsider. From now on, as an officer of the mercenary regiment, you will carefully and comprehensively understand and inspect the training situation of each unit of the mercenary regiment. In a short period of time, we will Come up with your own explanations and plans. After all, I plan to leave these affiliated troops in the hands of elites like you to lead. How big your heart is, how big my support will be.
Next, I will ask the soldiers to take you to inspect the units below according to your own majors. I hope you will listen more and ask more today, and I will ask you to speak more next time. "
Zhou Wen already asked several soldiers on duty to take these officers to the training ground of each unit.
After a while, only five people including Meng Yuting, Chen Wanli, Jiang Tao, Li Yibin and Zhong Zhi were left at the scene. They were still standing silently waiting for Zhou Wen's arrangements.
Zhou Wen said with a smile: "Brother Jiang Tao will get to know the brothers of the mercenary group for a few days and get in touch with each other. After that, I will send you to the urban management section of the security department to report. Don't listen to the name of the urban management section. It is very general, but it is specially designed to deal with The intelligence agency established by Japanese spies has come at the right time, and you will be responsible for the general training work at that time."
Jiang Tao was greatly refreshed after hearing this, and immediately stood at attention and accepted the order.
Zhou Wen looked at Li Yibin and Zhong Zhi with eager eyes and said, "I'm afraid you two will be disappointed for the time being. I'm not Sun Wukong. I won't be able to create the tanks and armored vehicles you need all of a sudden, but the mission given to you is It will be more difficult, just like Jiang Tao, keeping in touch with each other these days and getting to know the team is the first priority, and I will assign the task after that."
Finally, Zhou Wen looked at Meng Yuting and Chen Wanli and said: "As for the two great talents, Brother Yuting and Brother Wanli, my request is not that simple. Don't think that I am a little bandit who doesn't know about the Soviet Union's Frunze Military Academy It is one of the four major military academies in the world and is known as the cradle of generals. Therefore, my request for you two is to familiarize yourself with the combat characteristics and combat capabilities of all troops in the shortest possible time, and also propose how to make The entire mercenary group is integrated together to exert its due combat effectiveness.
In addition, I need to understand the purpose of forming each unit in a short period of time and help me formulate several tactics suitable for the combined operations of various arms of our mercenary group as soon as possible, including defense and offense and operations in various environments. "
When Zhou Wen said this, he took a long breath and said: "Over the past year, I have worked hard and thought hard. I wish I could divide myself into two halves. Only then did I create such a force that includes infantry, artillery, and anti-aircraft machine gunners." , the engineers and communications troops have been trained in a somewhat rudimentary form. But I am really at a loss as to what to do in the future to make them go one step further and truly become a strong backing for the mercenary group.
If I was given a little more time, I might be able to figure out some methods, but there is not enough time, and this is my biggest worry. I'm not sure I can bring these soldiers back with them all after I take them to the battlefield. These soldiers are all good ones that I selected from tens of thousands of people. However, if it was due to my improper training and command, which resulted in avoidable sacrifices and losses, I would regret it and be heartbroken for the rest of my life. "
