Chapter 553: Standards

It's the best of both worlds.

First of all, the role of the 82nd Infantry Regiment, to be precise, the 5th Infantry Company, still exists, and even not only exists, but is further consolidated.

Secondly, it is to improve the morale of the "punishment battalions" of various units...... Originally, there was no hope, even if he made meritorious service on the battlefield, he could only be regarded as "washing away shame with blood", let alone receiving any rewards, and it would be good if he was not continued to be regarded as a traitor to the motherland.

But now, after their meritorious service, there is at least one more way, that is, there is a chance to enter the 82nd Infantry Regiment and become a normal unit.

This is somewhat ironic, because nominally there is a "normal unit" like the 5th Infantry Company, but only this "normal unit" of the 82nd Infantry Regiment is believed and accepted by the "Punishment Battalion".

While this is hard to do, at least there is a glimmer of hope.

There is no hope at all, there is no hope, compared with the glimmer of hope that remains, it is the difference between starting from nothing.

So it is conceivable that this policy will definitely be welcomed by the "punishment camps".

Finally, it is the forces that have embraced such a policy.

Because under the previous circumstances, all units needed to spend more energy to control and suppress the "punishment battalions" to carry out high-risk tasks, and even to guard against the rebellion of the "punishment battalions" at all times.

After the implementation of this policy, not to mention the complete eradication of this phenomenon, at least the pressure in this regard will not be as heavy as before, because the "punishment camps" will be more or less subjective.

Sure enough, as soon as Golikov announced the order to the whole army, it was immediately supported by the whole army, and there was almost no opposition.

If there is any doubt, it is the price of "merit".

That is, how much "merit" is enough for a soldier of the "Punishment Battalion" to be recognized as "trusted" and then enter the 82nd Infantry Regiment.

"The bar can't be too high!" Krylov said: "Because if it is too high, the soldiers of the 'punishment battalion' will just give up, and even think that we are fooling and deceiving them, which will not only not play any role but will also be counterproductive!" ”

Golikov nodded: "Of course, it can't be too low, otherwise it means that there is no threshold, and they can all easily enter the 82nd Infantry Regiment!" ”

After thinking about it, Krylov said: "Otherwise, we will kill at least one enemy!" ”

"Kill an enemy?"

"Yes!" Krylov said: "Either wash the shame with your own blood, or with the blood of your enemies...... After participating in at least one full battle and successfully killing one enemy, they can become 'trusted' soldiers and enter the 82nd Infantry Regiment! "ゑ新ダ~(8)~1~Chinese 碲ωωω.Ο‡~8.~1zΡ‰.cΓ²ΠΌ

Krylov is worthy of being a treacherous chief of staff, "killing an enemy" seems simple, but in fact, this determines that you must go to the forefront of the battlefield, which is the most dangerous place, otherwise you can't see how the enemy can kill the enemy.

And if the soldiers of the "punishment battalion" can take the initiative to go to the battlefield and devote themselves to "killing an enemy", this has basically met the requirements of the Soviet army for the "punishment battalion".

What Krylov did not emphasize was that after going to the battlefield to participate in a normal battle, not many people would return alive.

On the other hand, if the "punishment battalion" was able to kill one enemy per person, it would certainly be a sure win for the Soviet army...... The ratio of Soviet casualties to the Germans was often three to one or even higher, and if a "punishment battalion" soldier could kill an enemy, even if he became a normal soldier, what if he was a normal soldier?!

Again, no one has an opinion on this standard.

So, the phrase of Krylov soon spread among the "punishment camps": "Either wash the shame with your own blood, or wash your shame with the blood of the enemy!" ”

As a result, the entire 62nd Army was like a shot in the arm, and they rushed to the battlefield one by one, especially the "punishment battalion."

On the side of the 82nd Infantry Regiment, the first thing was the cheers of the soldiers who had fled and came to "take refuge...... They were more or less afraid that they would be punished for such behavior, and only now are they completely relieved.

Naturally, Shulka then incorporated these men into the Fifth Infantry Company.

Mikhailvich originally had a different opinion on this.

"I think the Fifth Infantry Company is too numerous to command!" Major Mikhailvich handed the statistics to Shulka and said: "They still have 172 people, plus this batch has returned to the size of a reinforced company of more than 200 people. Why don't we divide them into two companies? ”

"We can divide them into two companies, but I don't think it's now, Comrade Mikhailvich!" Shulka replied.

"Why? You mean to divide it later? Major Mikhailvich asked suspiciously, "But what's the difference?" ”

"The difference is whether they feel the kind of atmosphere that the 5th Infantry Company has!"

As soon as Shulka said this, Major Mikhailvich understood.

It is not easy to subdue a unit and trust each other, which is the main reason why other units have no system and cannot successfully replicate the 5th Infantry Company.

Now, if the newly defected "deserters" are organized into a new unit, then this new force will need Shulka to subdue again.

But if they are first incorporated into the 5th Infantry Company and trained with the 5th Infantry Company, then it will soon be possible to understand the history of the 5th Infantry Company and how each person feels.

In particular, the unwritten rule of the 5th Infantry Company: lynching.

Over time, these recruits will soon be assimilated into the pattern and ethos of the Fifth Infantry Company...... They are both "deserters", and they are both degenerate people walking on the verge of death and abandonment, so there must be a lot of common language, of course, and similar life feelings, so it is certain that they will influence each other.

This is actually the spirit and belief of an army, or it can also be said to be the inheritance and military spirit.

One day, when they had been incorporated into the 5th Infantry, it would not be much of a problem to divide them into two more companies. New 81 Chinese network updates the fastest Mobile:://

They can even continue to influence others with this style.

"So!" "Not only are we going to put them together, but we're going to have them fight a few battles on the battlefield!" Shulka said. ”

Mikhailvich nodded approvingly.

Training is one thing, fighting a war is another.

Training is a bit like just saying but not doing, i.e. casually raising the requirements and saying whatever you want, and even sometimes allowing bragging to boost morale.

On the battlefield, that is, "it is a donkey or a horse that comes out for a walk", and the recruits will really feel how the soldiers of the 5th Infantry Company fought on the battlefield, and they also know that what they said before is the truth.
