Chapter 289: Training of Recruits

Company E returned to Edboone's barracks again in order to train recruits as a supplement and integrate them into Company as quickly as possible, which was also an order given directly by Colonel Sink to Captain Winters.

"Private Logan, what are you doing? If you are on the battlefield, your behavior will not only kill you, but also kill the comrades next to you!" Li Wei yelled at a new recruit, and his appearance was very rare in the eyes of both recruits and veterans.

After learning the reason for Li Wei's strange appearance, the veteran from Takoya also remained silent after learning the reason from the mouth of Corporal Maratch, and then the training became the same as Li Wei, and the requirements for recruits were quite strict.

"Yes, sir!I'm sorry, sir!" Logan straightened up and shouted, giving a military salute.

"I really don't understand why this Lieutenant Li is not as brave as the report, and according to the situation just now, shouldn't he lead us to charge the enemy's line of defense?" Logan muttered under his breath. Rogan was thrilled to be assigned to the second platoon of Company E, as several of Le We's operations and trench designs were reported as heroic deeds for propaganda purposes.

Young people worship individual heroes the most, but now Logan is disappointed in the real Rieve.

"If this is really a battlefield, after the charge, there will be no success or failure, but I can be sure that your family will receive a letter from the military headquarters that you have become part of the heroic martyrdom. Corporal Mook glanced at the recruit and said angrily.

Under the brainwashing offensive of the War Propaganda Department, the recruits who had not experienced war and blood naturally joined the army with enthusiasm, and then embarked on the journey of Europe and became a part of the liberation of Europe.

But in the eyes of the veterans, it is still unknown how many of them will be left behind by this group of immature recruits, so an invisible gap quietly spawns between the two factions.

After listening to Corporal Mook's sarcasm, Logan obediently shut up and said no more, but the expression of loss and disbelief on his face had already fallen into Corporal Mook's eyes.

"Listen, rookie! Li's tactical command is not your turn to criticize and guide, he is the brain of our E Company, and even Captain Winters sometimes listens to his advice!"

"Sir, Sergeant Goneri has signaled us. At this moment, one of the other recruits who stayed next to him, Earlis, whispered.

"Now, according to the plan laid out by Lai, Sergeant Lenny will lead most of the second platoon to feint against the position of the third platoon, and the two detachments of us and Goneri will be two sharp knives, directly threatening the central position of the third platoon from both sides. Corporal Mook said.

"Yes, sir. Logan and Earlith whispered. The two detachments of Corporal Muck and Sergeant Goneri consisted of only eight men in total, three of whom were still recruits, and this was also the arrangement that Li Wei had arranged for Captain Winters. Only by exposing these recruits to the most difficult tasks will they be able to grow up quickly, without risking their lives on the continent.

Second Lieutenant Compton, on the other hand, was in charge of the central position, and his platoon consisted of ten recruits who were all assigned to the left and right flanks, with the commanders of the two wings being led by the newly become corporals Rigott and Pikak, respectively. The task of the third platoon is very simple, it is to wait and resist the attack of the second platoon.

Corporal Rigot and Levy had fought side by side on the battlefield several times, and knew that the other party had knowledge of the battle formations of the ancient East, so he did not really stay here as instructed. After a lot of days with Levy, Corporal Rigott learned some of the fur.

"Paikanti, why don't you also learn the counterpoint combat thinking that Li often talks about?" asked Corporal Rigault to Sergeant Paikanti. Although Paikanti was higher in rank than Rigotte, both were brothers who had been trained together at the Takoya Battalion, so they didn't care so much about it.

"Okay!" replied Sergeant Paikanti.

"According to Lai's way of thinking...... I think he's going to use what he does best. Corporal Rigault said.

"I think so too...... In particular, the commander of our right wing is still notoriously 'stubborn' Pikak, and Li will certainly not let go of this opportunity. Sergeant Paikanti agreed with Corporal Rigott.

'Stubborn' Pikak is not a veteran of Company E from Tacoya, he lost contact with his company after the Normandy landings and temporarily joined Company E, after which he remained and became a member of Company E.

Without Captain Sauber's 'careful' teachings, Corporal Picker's leadership style was naturally different from the others, he was too obsessed with following the rules and regulations, and in another word, he didn't know how to be flexible. Such a person would be a good soldier, but definitely not a good leader.

"Sir, you see that the second squad is divided into two groups, and Sergeant Kandy is sent out of the trench with five men. Recruit Sergeat pointed to Rigault and others on the left flank.

"Don't bother, maybe they have received additional instructions from Second Lieutenant Compton. Our instructions were to hold the right flank, so act as instructed. Corporal Pikak said.

Hearing Corporal Pikak's words, Corporal Christensen and Private 1st Class Skiney, 2nd Class Technical Private Smith, Private 1st Class Moore, and Private Evans behind him all sneered.

"Do you have any comments? Corporal Pikak asked. As a non-lineage veteran, Corporal Pikak knew that his status in Company E was not up or down, so he had great respect for veterans or officers from the Takoya Barracks, or there was a hint of sycophancy in it.

"No, you're the commander, so your instructions are orders, and you don't need to ask me or anyone else. "Corporal Christensen didn't say what he and other veterans of Company E had in mind, that is, if they didn't know how to be flexible, they would only be beaten all over the ground by their Lieutenant Lai, so Christensen and the others had already made preparations for 'death'.

On the other hand, Sergeant Lenny arrived not far from the position of the third platoon with almost the same number of soldiers as the second platoon, and the Einsatzgruppen led by Sergeant Goneri and Corporal Mook had already moved to the intended location. And where is their platoon commander, that is, Levy himself?

"Not bad...... Rigotte actually knows how to divide troops and ambush, and it seems that he has really grown. "In the direction of the eleventh bell of the left flank of the third platoon, that is, in the rear of the defensive line, a detachment appeared. The leader was none other than Li Wei himself, and there were only three members of the team, namely Sergeant Grant, Private Ramirez, and Private Burks.

"Sir, are you the left flank of the third platoon setting up an ambush, do you want us to inform Corporal Mook to be on alert?" asked Sergeant Grant.

"No, this is just a tactical exercise, there is no need to notify if there is no threat to life, on the contrary, this situation is not what I expected, so it would be good to see how Mook reacts." "Le Wei vetoed Sergeant Glat's proposal.

"Do you know who is in charge of the defense of the right flank of the third row?" asked Li Wei.

"It's Corporal Pikak, sir. Burks replied.

"Is it 'stubborn' Pikak? Then we're going to have fun...... Grant, you take Ramirez back to Paikanti's team to contain them, don't let them flank Mook's team, and immediately release wolf smoke to warn Mook's team when they start to contain them. Remember, don't go head-on with Paikanti, remember the guerrilla tactics I told you before, right?" asked Li Wei at last.

"Naturally remember. Sergeant Grant said he hadn't forgotten.

"Very well, Burks, you should now make a detour back to the intended location of the Guaerneys, leaving them with only the machine gun crew as decoy to attract the fire of the right flank. The rest of the men, as originally planned, joined me in the central position of the third platoon. Levy commanded Burks.

"Yes, sir!, I'll go at once!" and Berks disappeared into the grass.
