Chapter 379: Accident
After a few days of rest and recuperation, Zhang Yunfei began to summarize and train the troops' tactics.
The soldiers of this era do not have the conditions to give you leisurely military training, and can only train in battle, so the summary of tactics is particularly important.
In many cases, the lessons and lessons have been summed up at a painful price, and the unit's overall training summary is aimed at some problems exposed in this operation, such as the troops' weak ability to attack fortified positions and the single means of attacking fortifications.
This can be said to be the natural weakness of the Eighth Route Army, and sometimes the defensive problems of the landlord and the old rich man's Zhuangzi are stumped.
In the future, however, there will be more and more opportunities for them to take the initiative to attack, and the change of attack and defense of the troops, the deployment of firepower on the battlefield, and the construction of field fortifications will all be new topics for them.
Moreover, the cadres at the company and platoon level of his unit are somewhat weak in their ability to move independently, and their ability to fight in the field in the plains is relatively poor.
Don't think that everyone in the Eighth Route Army is born to be a master of guerrilla warfare, and don't even think about it, most of the cadres at the platoon level are promoted from ordinary soldiers.
Units like theirs are all units formed later, and there are few real veteran Red Army soldiers, and it is conceivable that even the platoon commanders do not have rich combat experience.
He and Qi Dajiu, who only have three or four years of military experience, can serve as commanders and fighters at the battalion and company level.
No matter how much the Eighth Route Army can transform people, in such a short period of time, they can become soldiers who are brave in battle and obey commands, and there is no problem for low-level officers who obey orders.
But if you want to become a commander and fighter on your own, it's not so simple, as far as Tie Dan is concerned, others are already more active, and they often perform some independent reconnaissance missions alone, and they complete it very well.
But to let him command the operation independently, it is a bit lacking in confidence, this is still an officer like Tie Dan who commands a small unit of troops to perform tasks independently.
Other people who only know how to obey orders and commanders, and there are even fewer who can really stand alone, of course, there are indeed people who are born to be generals, but after all, there are very few people, and it is impossible to be met by yourself so coincidentally.
Zhang Yunfei was actively responding, preparing for the enemy's soldiers to press the border again, so their guard posts were all paying attention to the enemy's military movements.
Unexpectedly, a person dressed as an authentic local peasant came directly to the village where his headquarters was stationed from out of town.
Their Eighth Route Army has always been close to the people, and this place is also a fortress village, and the Eighth Route Army gets along very well with the local villagers, so naturally it will not disturb the people, and the villagers will not avoid it because there is a garrison here.
So this kind of visit to relatives and friends is quite normal, of course, there are still necessary checks for sentry posts, but they are not strict, and the other party is holding a road from a nearby village.
People in this era are still quite sincere, there are not so many fancy intestines, and naturally they don't need any anti-counterfeiting means, so they don't attract the attention of others.
There are troops stationed in the Eighth Route Army, and the people live as usual, and it is normal for them to visit relatives and friends, and everything is as usual.
But the man went to the village, looked around for a long time, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he went to the only well in the village, and threw the powdery stuff in a paper bag into the water.
After throwing things into the well, the guy swaggered out of the village under the noses of the sentry at the entrance of the village.
And no one found this, what was thrown into the well, and the bag of powder that he threw into the well melted into the water in the first place, and everything was without a trace.
At present, although there is war outside, the devils are cleaning up from time to time, but no matter how difficult the days are, the days still have to go on.
In the afternoon, when I came to the well from time to time to fetch water, prepare dinner, and fill the water tank at home, no one noticed any difference in the well water today.
As usual, a load of water to carry water into the house, even if there are a few mouths, find that today's well water has a somewhat bitter taste, will not pay too much attention.
Well water, that's it, especially open-air well water, the taste is like that, when the mountain wind blows, anything may fall into it, and the taste is bitter and normal.
Besides, at this age, food is expensive, not to mention that the taste is only a little bitter, even if it is rancid, you still have to eat it.
Compared with the people who went to the well to fetch water, the cooking class of Zhang Yunfei's headquarters went to the back mountain with a bucket.
These are all small mountain villages, usually only a few dozen households, and it is impossible to accommodate all of Zhang Yunfei's troops, so their troops are centered on this village and are stationed in the surrounding villages with companies as units.
This place is not a plain area, and the groundwater is not abundant, so the amount of well water is not much, and in times of drought, if the well water is not on the spring, it may be depleted.
In some places, villagers ask for water and fights are common.
The principle of the Eighth Route Army is not to disturb the people, so their troops would rather go far away from the village to get water than compete with the villagers for water.
Of course, it's not practical, it's not a drought now, and the water source is not too tight.
However, this is a matter of attitude, and the Eighth Route Army is very attentive to this aspect and cares very much about the feelings of the villagers.
However, the troops use a lot of water, which may cause congestion in water intake, and the villagers still need to wait in line to get water, so Zhang Yunfei specifically requested that the troops not be allowed to grab water from the people, let alone use the village wells, and all the drinking water should be carried out in the distant back mountains.
In the back hill of this village, there is a spring with flowing water all the time, and below the spring, there is a naturally formed reservoir.
The water in the pool is always full. However, because this spring is a little far away from the village, and the water quality is generally even a little bitter, and the well water is not as good, so the people do not like to go there to fetch water. Usually it is just people who herd cattle or sheep and come here to drink their livestock.
The people in the village still drink water and livestock, and the well in the village is still the main drink. After leading the troops into this mountain village, in order to avoid occupying too much water in the well, which does not produce a lot of water and only satisfies the lives of the people in the village. Zhang Yunfei ordered the troops to use water, whether for cooking or drinking, to go to the spring in the back mountain to fetch water.
As a result, Zhang Yunfei's order made the troops basically not have any poisonous situation, and they escaped. However, after eating or drinking well water, the villagers who used the well water developed a large area of poisoning in a very short period of time.
