Practice three nines in winter and three dogs in summer. The days of being a soldier are very hard, and it is indeed a heavy test for Zhang Hanqing, a half-old man who should still be in school age, especially for him who still has a lot of capital. Many people think that Zhang Hanqing must have come to gild, and some people are ready to watch jokes with colored glasses in private. The most obvious master is Tang Yulin, who once said to Zhang Hanqing more than once: "Big nephew, if you can't eat and are tired, just rest your feet." You were born to lead soldiers, and you don't need to go in the mud and rain with these soldiers. ”

The generals of the 27th Division are also instructors of the martial arts hall, so this Tang instructor's words are very demagogic. If it weren't for Zhang Hanqing's constant vigilance against him, it is estimated that he would not be able to see through the schadenfreude hidden behind his clear concern. If he has a firm conviction, how can he be easily moved by others?

Zhang Zuolin is also paying attention to him at all times. I really didn't expect that this little sixth son is really ruthless in doing things! He has never had the slightest idea of getting it easy under his own banner, not only that, but he often takes the initiative to increase his weight and strive for excellence in every link.

There was a field combat exercise, and the trainees were to be fully armed. Carrying dozens of pounds of equipment on his back, running, jumping, and jumping over obstacles is really not an easy task for the sixteen-year-old "Brother Gongzi", and it is not too much to find guilt. After the drills are completed in attack, defense, pursuit, retreat, and other subjects, there will be camping in the field and "positions all night". It was the height of summer, and mosquitoes harassed it, and it was extremely itchy after biting people; The sun is poisonous, and the skin must be peeled off if you don't die from exposure to the sun on the martial arts training ground. Not to mention camping, it is drilling, and his hands, feet and face are like cat bites, Zhang Hanqing gritted his teeth and persevered. At dawn, the headquarters ordered to run to the provincial capital to "transfer troops", and there were many people who were left behind, and even some old soldiers were not able to fall behind. But Zhang Hanqing not only did not fall behind, but also helped other trainees complete the exercise.

After successfully passing such many almost cruel trainings, Zhang Hanqing won the respect of all the staff, including veterans and recruits: this young marshal is not simple, he is really a tiger father without a dog!

Of course, the affinity of the young marshal is an important factor in winning the unity of everyone, without him, there are very few high-ranking cadres who can put down their shelves and mingle with the masses in these years. Usually, Zhang Hanqing studied very hard in the lecture hall, consciously abiding by the school rules, respecting the instructors, uniting his classmates, training hard, and never engaging in specialization. Therefore, a month after entering the school, Zhang Hanqing was appointed class president because of his excellent performance.

This squad leader, Zhang Hanqing is quite cherished, because this is what he earned with his own ability in the military circles, and it is far from being comparable to the rank of the deputy major. After becoming a squad leader, he created two original breakthroughs that set the stage for Fengjun to become a model for the modern Chinese army.

First of all, an infantry squad assault tactic called the "three-three system" was popularized. The squad is divided into three combat groups, led by the squad leader, deputy squad leader, and group leader, and each combat group has three people, who respond to each other in wartime.

The three battle groups were in an arrow-and-arrow attack formation, and each soldier had a clear division of tasks, attacking, covering, and supporting. During the operation, three soldiers formed a battle group, with two soldiers in front and the group leader in the rear, in a triangular formation. The three combat groups form a combat squad, which is deployed in a "skirmishment line" formation, and the soldiers change the combat formation at any time according to the instructions of the team leader or squad leader.

It may seem like a small move, but it's an epoch-making leap. You must know that the "three-three system" tactics first originated during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, matured in the War of Liberation, and were widely used in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

In this era, the strongest army of the world power also took the line infantry tactics to the extreme in the European theater, and this so-called "line up to shoot" tactic reached the first in the Battle of the Somme. The crossfire composed of German heavy machine guns overturned 60,000 British and French troops in one day, and countless British nobles with a tradition of taking the lead in charging were beaten to extinction.

But in China, it will take a long time for the all-round attack to take place. Now, Zhang Hanqing is just taking out the things that will be more than 20 years later in advance. But as soon as the experts made a move, they knew if there was any, and when Zhang Hanqing led his squad to withstand the attack of a platoon of the opponent and calmly withdrew during a drill confrontation, the high-level leaders of the 27th Division who were watching the battle were moved.

Subsequent research into this tactic has shown that it can even be called an epoch-making feat. Although compared with the West and even Westerners, the shortcomings in weapon configuration have limited the achievements of the Chinese army in firepower, but in terms of the improvement of grassroots combat effectiveness, it is undoubtedly able to take the lead in this era.

In recognition of Zhang Hanqing's achievements, this set of tactics was later named "Zhang's Tactics". Zhang Zuolin personally made the decision to promote this set of "Zhang's tactics" to all 27 divisions, and became one of the standard tactical actions for the training of infantry in Fengtian Wutang. Soon after, the "three-three system" infantry platoon tactics derived from this on the basis of the squad combat team were also popularized throughout the army, and a simple tactical innovation made an ordinary platoon control range of 800 meters, and the combat effectiveness of the Feng army was greatly improved.

It's not that no one doubts, as far as Zhang Hanqing, a young military cadet with insufficient "school age", has never experienced war, how can he make such a very militarized thing and very close to actual combat behind closed doors? Some people inevitably thought in their hearts that this was Zhang Zuolin's private teaching to his eldest son, after all, with Lao Zhang's military experience, he might be able to create such a thing.

But Sun Liechen, Zhang Zuoxiang and others all understand that this old Zhang can fight hard and play power, but it is still insufficient to engage in such a systematic thing. They have all followed Zhang Dashuai for half their lives, and they have never seen Lao Zhang have such superb insights in arranging troops. Zhang Hanqing has always been smart, studious, and diligent in using his brain, maybe he came up with it out of inspiration. As loyal fans of Zhang Zuolin, they advocated for Zhang Hanqing on various occasions and created an aura of a tiger for Zhang Hanqing.

Zhang Hanqing will not be complacent about this small achievement. The praise of Sun and Zhang's uncles only made it reasonable for him to go further after graduating from the military academy, but as a soldier, especially a young marshal who will be in charge of thousands of troops in the future---- he has no doubt that he will eventually take on this post---- how to let a large number of capable officers loyally surround him is the most important thing. And these officers and student soldiers in the martial arts hall are the potential strength.

What do military men admire the most? Except for some fake soldiers, what they admire most are real soldiers who are more military than them! He can not only lead by example, but also have extraordinary ability. Through a few months on the training ground, he has developed an impact on personality strength; The birth of "Zhang's tactics" shows his ability to be different from ordinary people. If this ability is carried forward, he is destined to be the center of attention.

In fact, it is. Zhang Hanqing did not defend himself, and he did not lie on the merit book and slept soundly, he still continued to perform the duties of a military cadet. Wind and rain to and fore, leading his infantry squad to continue his glory. In addition to his excellent military skills, his squad has become a pacesetter in terms of political ideology and internal management.

Moreover, Zhang Hanqing has become more and more noticed by everyone in the martial arts hall, because he can not only endure hardships, but also be a master.

The project that can best reflect his advantages is in the exam, each exam is the absolute first place, whether it is military knowledge, military geography or tactical foundation, queue command, etc., all in all, if someone in this era summarizes the virtues of military students, this young marshal is definitely a model for soldiers, a pacesetter among students.

Of course, the first place in the martial arts examination is not because of how much ability he has in military attainments, with his sixteen-year-old age and completely blank military experience, even if he is a traverser, he should not look down on his grasp of military quality. After all, it doesn't happen overnight. In fact, the vast majority of the students of the martial arts hall were people in the army at that time, and their knowledge, comprehension and vision were indeed quite different from this modern person, that is, as the saying goes, "the lame man chooses a general". Of course, it is also necessary to add that Zhang Hanqing himself is really working hard in the martial arts hall.

The biggest impression of Zhang Hanqing is that he can let the instructors who train military strategy and tactics see his vision and refreshing military viewpoint of winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away on various occasions: Modern warfare is a comparison of logistics and comprehensive national strength; Great depth and high mobility are the highlights of future warfare; In the hypothetical scenario of being an enemy of Japan, China, which is relatively weak, only needs to use space in exchange for time, so that it can use the theory of "protracted war" to deal with the powerful Japanese army at this stage. The spirit of the bright sword of the brave who wins when meeting on a narrow road can also make a weak army strong in a short period of time, and so on. It makes people wonder whether he has the instructor's "small stove" to fulfill his desire for expression, but it is well known that there is no instructor in the Fengjun army who can have such advanced military thinking.

So he took the first exam on the first exam, and the first on the second exam......

Not to be envied is mediocrity. At that time, there was a bit of trouble in the school, and suddenly it was rumored that someone was cheating on the exam. The instructor asked Zhang Hanqing to switch places with others, but his grades were still very good. There were almost more than 100 people in the two education classes in the first period, and one day the teacher came up with four questions, and as a result, except for Zhang Hanqing, no one answered them completely.

If you are a little better than others, others will be jealous or slander you. But when the gap between you and others is not of an equal magnitude, others will only look up to you. After Zhang Hanqing experienced the transformation from jealousy to admiration, he deeply realized that this statement was really not bad. When a person is better than you and can fight for his father but still work harder than you, what else can you do but await him?
