Chapter 56: Devilish Training
Now Liu Cheng has some food in his hands and can hold on for some days.
But these grains are not seeds, and even if they are, they must be planted in the soil after spring.
Liu Cheng had to improve the combat effectiveness of his team before he ran out of food, so as to ensure that he could get more food from the enemy.
With the current situation of the guerrillas, the slogan "drive the little devils out of the Northeast" is really just a slogan.
To be able to win these small-scale battles, it depends largely on luck, or you can really only run faster with the devils.
This time, Liu Cheng plans to bring the team into the Changbai Mountains to carry out a month-long special training, which is bound to more than double the team's combat effectiveness before the end of the year!
But before leaving, Liu Cheng has two more things to do:
One is to go to the corps and ask the captain Yuan Desheng and political commissar Zhang Guanyi if they can add some soldiers.
The second is to formulate a set of contact methods and codes with the headquarters and several other brigades, if a special person is formulated to contact, once this person has an accident, it will be troublesome.
While this way of setting the location and code of the connector may sound strange and even ridiculous, it was no way around it in those days.
Radio is not as ubiquitous as it is on TV, whether it is in the fruit army or the devil, it must be at least at the division level (wing) to be equipped with a radio station.
Even walkie-talkies, which are one grade weaker, can only be equipped at least at the regimental level (brigade).
With the size of the guerrillas and the level of the enemy they come into contact with, there is no radio station at all, let alone a way to get one.
After the Battle of Wild Wolf Ridge, the headquarters also moved to Huinan County.
Yuan Desheng and Zhang Guanyi gave a high degree of affirmation to the battle of Wild Wolf Ridge, and without waiting for Liu Cheng to speak, they promised to add fifty people to him, and let him personally choose among those puppet army prisoners who were willing to stay.
After Li Hongguang and Ye Jian brought back those puppet army captives, Zhang Guanyi adopted a voluntary attitude, and those who were willing to stay were welcomed; If you don't want to, as long as you promise not to give your life to the Japanese, you can leave on your own.
Liu Cheng was not polite, gathered the more than 120 people who were willing to stay, without a word of nonsense, first collectively ran around the mountain, and eliminated the 50 people who ran behind.
This is followed by a set of push-ups, no limits, until you give up voluntarily, and again screen out the dozen or so people who can't hold on to it first.
Finally, there was a group of sniper rifles, holding the gun in a standing position, aiming at the target, dropping a stone weighing seven or eight pounds on the muzzle, and again sifting out the seven or eight people who were the first to put down the gun.
Zhang Guanyi and Yuan Desheng stood in the distance and watched, and when they saw Liu Cheng asking those people to hold their guns, Zhang Guanyi turned to Yuan Desheng and asked:
"Old Yuan, what do you think of this kid?"
Yuan Desheng nodded:
"This kid has a set of ghost ideas, and he is indeed a talent, but this time in the battle of Wolf Ridge, I'm afraid the little devil has completely remembered him, I'm afraid it's ......."
Zhang Guanyi smiled and shook his head:
"Don't worry, the only one who can target him at the moment is Ono Taro, but he can't help this kid, and by the time Liu Chengzhen can attract the attention of the devil's higher-ups, he will have already grown up completely. In my opinion, the team brought out by this kid will definitely be the main force of our guerrillas in the future! ”
After picking people, Zhang Guanyi directly distributed weapons, ammunition and five-day rations to them, and instructed Liu Cheng a few words, and asked him to rush back to the army immediately.
Liu Cheng agreed with them on the location and code for the transmission of the news, and then went back with the fifty people.
After entering the Changbai Mountain Range, Liu Cheng immediately ordered everyone to withdraw the bullets and keep all the bullets in a unified manner, except for the two Mauser pistols in the hands of himself and Tian Liuwa, who was in charge of taking care of the bullets, there were bullets, and everyone else could only carry empty guns.
Then, he asked everyone to carry a stone of about twenty catties on their bodies, marched rapidly for three consecutive days, and went straight into the depths of Changbai Mountain.
If you want to carry out high-intensity training, you must ensure the nutrition of the soldiers, the food they bring, you can eat for ten days if you tighten your stomach, and the reason why the location is chosen in the depths of Changbai Mountain is also because there are wild boars, pheasants and hares in the mountains to supplement the lack of food.
Liu Cheng has developed a complete set of training plans:
Get up at half past six in the morning, run 10 kilometers of mountain roads with a weight of 20 kilograms; Rice at half past eight, cornmeal porridge; At nine o'clock, the aiming training began, each person hung a 10-pound stone from the muzzle of the gun, and the empty gun was aimed at the moving person, and the aiming speed must be fast.
At that time, there was no sighting scope, and even if there were, more than a hundred people Liu Cheng couldn't check it at all, he just told everyone before training that if you want to increase your chances of surviving on the battlefield, you must practice seriously.
Lunch at half past twelve o'clock at noon, and tactical practice began at one o'clock.
In addition to basic individual tactical training, such as lying down, crawling, and building cover, it is also necessary to conduct cooperative combat training.
From the coordination of several people in small groups to the coordination of squads and platoons to the commanding heights of machine guns to cover the charge, Liu Cheng used all the training methods he could think of.
After the first period of fatigue of the fighters passed, every night before going to bed, another 10-kilometer cross-country trip was added.
Although I was so tired that I could barely get up every day, no one complained of being tired.
Because they all know that this is not torture, but the hope and security of survival!
And the most important thing is to cultivate the obedience of the warriors.
This is even more important than combat capability.
When fighting, if the troops can't obey the command to a high degree, even if Yue Wumu is alive, they won't be able to win the battle!
After more than half a month, the combat effectiveness of more than 100 people has obviously increased significantly compared with before.
Liu Cheng also made some changes to some of the combat gestures he had mastered in his previous life and taught them to the soldiers, and asked them to memorize them and be able to use them proficiently.
He divided the more than 100 people into ten classes, singled out ten squad leaders, and taught them the flag language.
The sound of guns and cannons on the battlefield is shocking, and shouting by the voice has no effect at all, so gestures and flags are particularly important.
The flag language does not need to be understood by everyone, as long as the commander can understand it, and it is not good for more people to know it.
After all, it was something that the enemy could see, and if someone was captured one day and became a prisoner, Liu Cheng didn't dare to guarantee that everyone's bones were hard enough.
One of the squads is a reconnaissance squad, the squad leader Tian Liuwa, and the ten soldiers in the squad are the ten people with the strongest individual combat ability in the team.
Their mission is to scout the enemy before the battle begins, and to discover and eliminate local scouts; After the battle begins, it is responsible for knocking out the enemy's machine guns, mortars and other strong fire points.
