With the deployment of the combat companies under the command of the Snow Shame Battalion one after another, the originally lively Anhua Mountain seems to have become much quieter. Around the valley where the battalion headquarters is located, the troops stationed in the mountains have built fortifications that are lined up and fortified.

In the words of Xu Mingzhi, deputy battalion commander, if the little devil sends another wing of infantry to encircle and suppress it, as long as the little devil dares to enter the mountain, the Snow Shame Battalion will have the ability to inflict heavy damage on him. Without using the Air Force, it will be difficult for the little devils to capture the outer defensive positions.

Even though the fortifications around the camp had been strengthened to a certain extent, Xu Mingzhi still followed Hu Biao's decision. The company stationed outside the battalion headquarters was still stationed in the form of bandit armies and guerrillas, serving as a perimeter guard.

On the other hand, although the core area where the battalion headquarters is located is extremely strong, the troops are training in the mountains during the day, and Xu Mingzhi will order the peripheral troops to do a good job of air defense vigilance. As soon as enemy aircraft are spotted for reconnaissance, the battalion headquarters becomes quiet.

It is this kind of low-key that has made the Snow Shame Camp so far not discovered by the little devils. Even the people who live near the mountains only know that there are teams to fight little devils in the mountains, but they don't know how many anti-war troops there are in the mountains.

The only thing that puzzled the people a little was that the bandits still existed in the mountains, and it seemed that they had not come to the village for a long time to loot. And this change seems to be related to the establishment of a militia escort in their village.

In this case, unless there are people with ulterior motives, ordinary people in the mountains will definitely not run to tell the little devils. Moreover, after the establishment of the village-level militia escort unit, one after another, young people from villages joined the guerrillas to join the army to fight devils.

According to the rules set by Hu Biao earlier, these recruits are not allowed to go home to visit their relatives privately within one year of enlistment. After one year, family leave will be granted according to the circumstances. This kind of treatment is not even enjoyed by some veterans.

The reason why this rule was formulated is more to make the people who send their children to join the army feel at ease. In addition to the monthly salaries these recruits receive, many of them will be passed on to their relatives, attracting more young people to join the army.

The location of the headquarters of the Snow Shame Camp, which was relatively deserted in the past, became lively again after Hu Biao returned. Hu Biao, who returned to the battalion headquarters, inevitably had a good meal and drink with the officers who stayed behind, and visited the troops stationed in the mountains.

When he arrived at the cave hospital, Hu Biao did not forget to give away a batch of medicines and medical equipment again. Seeing these medicines and equipment sent, several doctors recruited by the hospital were still very happy.

With the increase in the number of expatriate troops from the Snow Shame Battalion, the hospital will also receive some seriously wounded from time to time. There were quite a few of them, even militiamen wounded in battle. In this way, these doctors and trained nurses do not have to worry about being useless.

Looking at the cave hospital that was re-expanded and repaired in the later period, Hu Biao was also very satisfied: "I am afraid that there is no second such field hospital in the entire Soviet Province." But I hope that while you are treating the sick, you can train more medical staff. ”

"Battalion commander, rest assured! We are also further strengthening the training of field medics. We plan to send some of the newly recruited young men and nurses to the guerrilla areas and set up corresponding infirmaries. ”

"That's a good idea! While the troops are being expanded, logistical support must not lag behind. A good job of medical care can also save the lives of many soldiers. Soldiers beat devils with guns, and you save the lives of soldiers with scalpels, you are also heroes! ”

For the field hospital of this era, Hu Biao knows that it is far inferior to later generations. Many of the main forces at the division level may not have set up well-equipped rear hospitals. Many soldiers were wounded on the battlefield and were not effectively treated.

In the case of other anti-Japanese war forces, Hu Biao could not give much help. Even if he made money by smuggling medicines, these drugs could also save the lives of many wounded in the Anti-Japanese War. But in his own troops, he hopes to improve the situation.

When the cave hospital has a certain scale, Hu Biao will also consider setting up a similar hospital on the Maling Mountain side. In Hu Biao's view, these hospitals he set up in the later period will also treat some wounded soldiers from other units in the Anti-Japanese War.

After inspecting the hospital, many female nurses who had newly joined the hospital looked at Hu Biao, who was like a moon in the stars, and said curiously: "He is our battalion commander?" It looks like he's very young! ”

"I guess so! The woman next to him seems to be very familiar with our dean! ”

Hu Biao didn't pay much attention to the discussions of these female nurses. The girls who can stay as nurses are very clear about their family backgrounds. If they dare to betray something, they also have to think about the safety of their families.

Compared to other veterans, many of them are not natives. Most of the young men and women who joined later were recruited from local farming families. For these young men and women, they also have to consider the cost of betrayal if they want to betray.

Although 'the disaster will not affect the family', in Hu Biao's view, sometimes it is necessary to let these young men and women know that the Snow Shame Camp is not a good church. While giving them preferential treatment, they also need to pay the same price of loyalty.

Considering the upcoming selection and assessment of new team members, Hu Biao, who inspected the troops in the mountains, is now holding a meeting with Xu Sandao and others to discuss the next assessment rules. For this expansion, Xu Sandao and others are also full of expectations.

As far as the current scale of the Snow Shame Camp is concerned, with the subsequent addition of some new recruits, the number of fighters participating in the selection this time will reach as many as 180. Among these 180 people, there is also a temporary company of which Lei Xiong served as the company commander.

Referring to the assessment, Hu Biao also said seriously: "You have all experienced this kind of assessment and selection many times, and this time it is more special that there are more people participating in the assessment and selection. Therefore, we need to do some preparation in advance.

Starting tomorrow, I will take the second and third platoons into the mountain, responsible for setting up the assessment camp and the trial venue. Lao Xu stayed in the battalion headquarters and did a good job in personnel reception and political review. Combined with the list submitted by each company, do a good job of registering the corresponding trial personnel.

Although the quota I gave was about 100 people, I looked at it during this period of time, and the training of each company has been doing well. This group of soldiers participating in the assessment is afraid that their quality is good, and the number of places may increase.

It's just that the rules of the spy company cannot be broken, and it is our principle to prefer lack to abuse. As you all know, the warriors who pass the selection test will soon follow us deep behind enemy lines, facing enemies several times my size.

If you think that if you release water privately and give those soldiers who participate in the assessment a chance, it is not giving them a chance, it is letting them die in vain. Those who do not meet the training standards and fail the political examination will be eliminated! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

It is clear that what Hu Biao said later was also aimed at the soldiers who participated in the selection and assessment of the lone military battalion. Hu Biao also didn't want to see Xu Sandao and others relax their requirements in the process of assessment because the soldiers in the lonely army camp were old comrades-in-arms.

has been by Hu Biao's side for so long, Xu Sandao and others also know what kind of character Hu Biao is. Since Hu Biao has made a request, he also pointed out that he must treat everyone equally and strictly demand, and in the process of assessment and selection, they did not dare to release water in private.

What's more, compared with other combat companies, Xu Sandao and others, who returned to the mountain ahead of schedule, have already strengthened the training of the soldiers of the temporary company for three days. If they can't compare to other trial fighters, it can only mean that they are not as good as others.

Regarding this selection and assessment, including deputy battalion commander Xu Mingzhi, they all wanted to know what the content of the assessment was. It's a pity that Hu Biao didn't reveal that the rules of this selection and assessment made the company commanders very helpless.

Even if this kind of selection and assessment will pick away the top soldiers of the company. But as far as these company commanders are concerned, they also hope that their company can send more excellent soldiers to the special service company. In that case, it also shows that they train their troops in peacetime.

To Hu Biao's surprise, when the assessment meeting was over, Lei Xiong deliberately came over and said, "Battalion commander, I also want to participate in the assessment and selection!" I don't ask you to go through the back door, I just want to give me a chance to play fair. ”

Hearing what Lei Xiong said, Hu Biao smiled bitterly: "Company commander, why are you joining in this fun?" ”

"What do you mean by joining in the fun? After being in camp for so long, I knew that staying at the base would rarely have the opportunity to go out to fight. Only by joining the spy company can you follow you to the battlefield to fight devils. I want to fight devils, I don't want to stay in the mountains! ”

"Company commander, I know you want to go to war. But you should know that the brothers who come out of the lonely army camp must be brought by someone, right? ”

"The platoon commanders who came with me are all good! With them watching, there's basically no problem. Besides, I think it would be more appropriate to break up the provisional company and assign it to other companies.

Since we are now the troops of the Snow Shame Battalion, we should not do anything special. Temporary arrangement, I always feel a little inappropriate. Even if you don't plan to split the troops, you should give a new company number. ”

As Hu Biao's old company, Lei Xiong will not hide his true thoughts in front of Hu Biao. In his opinion, the existence of the temporary company does seem a bit nondescript. After a long time, it is easy to be hostile to other companies.

This is somewhat unfavorable to the unity and future development of the troops. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lei Xiong also hoped that Hu Biao would fully consider his opinion. The lone camp already had one, and he didn't want another here!

After listening to what Lei Xiong said, Hu Biao thought for a while and said: "It's me who didn't think it through!" I will talk about this matter with Lao Xu later, and discuss it with the platoon commanders of the company. ”

"And what about my participation in the assessment?"

"Okay! I heard Sandao and Lao Xu say that after you entered the mountain, you have always taken the lead in training. As long as you can pass the preliminary selection assessment, I will also give you a chance to join. In fact, I'm short of junior officers right now! ”

"You won't release water, will you?"

"Nope! Releasing water is not good for you, but it may harm you. When you join the spy company, you will know how dangerous and exciting it is for the spy company to fight behind enemy lines! If you don't have the strength, you will only die in vain! ”

Knowing that Lei Xiong also made such a decision to take care of his own authority. But in Hu Biao's opinion, as long as Lei Xiong has this kind of strength, he will not refuse to give Lei Xiong a chance. For Lei Xiong, Hu Biao is still grateful!
