Zhou Wen turned around and looked at Zuo Mingqing, who had an envious look on his face, but stood upright and didn't dare to move a little. He waved his hand and said, "You can go too. Remember to come back at night to arrange sentries. Starting tonight, Brother Lei and the others will also start." Arrange to stand guard."
"Yes! Thank you, Junior Master." Zuo Mingqing was overjoyed and quickly saluted Zhou Wen respectfully. He also quickly came to Zhao Xiaojin, scratched the back of his head and called Master with a smile.
"You bastard, let's go quickly." Zhao Xiaojin laughed and cursed, then led eight disciples and stretcher bearers to the field hospital a few miles away.
Due to the bumpy road, Zhao Xiaojin saw Gao Xiaoshan sweating in pain on the way, so he gave Gao Xiaoshan an injection of morphine. He was still sleeping, so no one bothered him.
Watching Zhao Xiaojin and the others go away, Zhou Wen finally had time to look at Lei Dahai and his 20 new members, who were still neatly arranged and standing upright. He nodded and said: "Not bad, Brother Lei. I can see that you guys have spent a few days. The training effect is good, everyone is not lazy."
Lei Dahai has never seen Zhou Wen since he arrived at Jianchang Camp. Although he has Uncle Zhang and the others taking care of him in the logistics team, he is always a little unsure about whether he can stay.
But now for some reason, after seeing Zhou Wen, my heart has settled down. If nothing else, just because he doesn't treat people like me as outsiders, I know that this scholar-general will not drive people like me away. .
You must know that they are not just eating, sleeping and resting in the logistics team these days, but they are also observing some basic conditions of this unit. Although they were all rescued by Zhou Wen, they should just follow Zhou Wen honestly. Why do you think so much?
But Lei Dahai and the others are different. Most of the twenty or so of them have served in the Northeastern Army. Among them, he once served as a company commander, and Xiaoqi also served as a squad leader for a few days. They are very important to the current Republic of China. I already know some of the bad habits and darkness in the military.
What is the difference between inside and outside, what is the direct line but not the direct line, what kind of stepmother is treated with all kinds of unwelcome treatment and unfairness, etc.
Lei Dahai was also afraid that he was entrusting someone with wrongdoing, so he would just let it go. At worst, he could just give his life back to others, but there was no need for his brothers to suffer along with him.
But a few days later, he made a surprising discovery.
Ordinarily, the soldiers in the logistics team of the general army are basically the old, weak, sick and disabled, and some are even civilians with little military training.
But the soldiers he saw were different. Not only did they have drills every day, but their military quality was not low, and their tactical movements were even more capable and neat than those of his own veterans.
And except for the old Uncle Zhang who was obviously in charge, the other soldiers were not very old. It seemed that almost all of them were strong and strong young men. In other armies, they were trained as front-line elite soldiers, but in this called In the Tiger Mercenary Group, they can only be used as logistics soldiers.
Once Lei Dahai tentatively asked a soldier on guard, but the young man gave him a big roll of his eyes and said angrily:
"We are not logistics troops, we are reserve troops, you know? We can also go up to fight when needed. Although they seem to be extremely powerful, and they all pretend to be elephants with their noses in the air, in fact, many of their marksmanship is not as good as mine. I'm just a little behind on weight-bearing training. After a few days and my body becomes stronger, I will soon be able to become a combat soldier."
Later, through the introduction of Uncle Zhang, Lei Dahai learned that the logistics soldiers of this mercenary group failed to meet the standards in one or more aspects of training, so they were all added to the logistics team to wait for the semi-annual competition of the whole group. , if you can surpass those lagging soldiers in the combat unit, you can replace them and become a real warrior.
Although Lei Dahai didn't know about the last-place elimination system, he certainly knew the benefits of this method as he had led troops. It is to make every soldier have a sense of the danger of being eliminated. They dare not not work hard when training and fighting. Otherwise, they will spend their whole lives doing the most tiring and shameless work in the logistics team, but they can only get half of others. of military pay.
After he learned that even if the military salary of a combat soldier was only half of the salary, he still had an income of 4 oceans a month, he couldn't help but smacked his tongue and said: "My mother, don't the combat soldiers earn 8 oceans a month?" The income is already comparable to the income of a platoon leader in the Northeast Army, so wouldn’t it be higher if you were an official? This scholar-general has to have money."
Only then did he realize that he had poked fun at someone's shortcomings by asking the sentry before. No wonder he was looked down upon.
What surprised him even more was that even for the soldiers in the logistics team, their equipment was not bad. There were as many steel helmets and combat uniforms as there were high-waisted combat boots, and everyone was in two categories.
Moreover, the long gun was the Type 65 semi-automatic rifle that made Xiaoqi's eyes so hot, but the short gun was changed into a German-made Dahong 9 10-round shell gun, not the latest 20-shot automatic pistol.
But it’s remarkable. You have to know that when he was a company commander in the Northeastern Army, he still used a 10-round semi-automatic shell gun copied from the Shenyang Arsenal, which was not even the slightest bit different from the German-made Dahongjiu.
The equipment of the logistics team is so good, so the equipment of the combat unit must be armed from the feet to the teeth. Based on this, Lei Dahai is even more eager to join the mercenary group.
He has been fighting with the Japs for several years, and of course he knows how much good equipment can improve combat effectiveness. Moreover, he took his brothers to join the army not for promotion and wealth, but simply because he wanted to kill Japanese soldiers, and the more he killed, the better.
Good weapons will naturally allow them to kill more Japanese and avenge their families and fellow villagers.
After learning this, Lei Dahai also reminded all the brothers that if anyone does not work harder in training and will be kicked out of the logistics team to drive a carriage and carry a big bag, then the shame will be thrown into his grandma's house. .
Now Zhou Wen values these volunteer soldiers very much. If they can eventually join the second squadron through training, their years of fighting experience with the Japs and their familiarity with the Japs' tactics will have a great impact on the combat effectiveness of the second squadron. Small improvement.
So after Zhou Wen saw Lei Dahai and their standard military posture, he felt a thumbs up in his heart. With this spirit, Zhou Wen had strong confidence in them.
After Lei Dahai saw Zhou Wen signaling everyone to take a break, he smiled and said, "With the Secretary-General taking care of us like this, we don't dare to be lazy. We just think that we can go to the front line to kill the Japanese as soon as possible."
"That's right, we don't have anything else to think about now. We just want to train well so that we can go to the battlefield as soon as possible. Brothers are holding back a lot of energy in their hearts. The chief secretary doesn't care about us, just train us to death. , otherwise I won’t be able to bear the meat and steamed buns every day.”
Xiao Qi also quickly agreed. She was really looking forward to training early. She was supposed to start shooting training today, and she had wanted to use that gun for a long time.
