Chapter 255: Beginning of Formation

"Squeak......

The Willys jeep stopped at the mouth of the valley, and Su Jin jumped out of the car first.

"Salute!"

After a row of soldiers at the mouth of the valley saw Su Jin, the officer led by him shouted, and the soldiers saluted Su Jin in unison.

After Su Jin raised his hand to return the salute, he turned to the two people in the car: "Okay...... Colonel Fred and Major Adele, please come with me. ”

The father and daughter who still had doubts on their faces got out of the car, followed the turn, and came to a flat field that was more than ten football fields wide, and after the two looked ahead, Fred's eyes suddenly became a little dull, and Adele on the side covered her mouth with both hands, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh...... Oh, God...... This...... It's incredible! ”

Although Fred didn't scream, his originally blue pupils also dilated instantly, and a look of horror appeared on his face, which was always solemn.

In front of the two of them were rows of grey-painted tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, and jeeps, one or two hundred of them, neatly lined up on the flat ground. They were arranged in such a neat order that they stood like a group of soldiers waiting to be reviewed with their heads held high.

"God, this ...... This turned out to be the latest type of tank No. 4 in the Reich, and these ...... And these are the No. 2 tanks, and these are the ammunition carriers, the bridge tanks, and the self-propelled anti-aircraft guns...... "Looking at so many types and huge armored vehicles, Fred was also stunned, and it took a long time for Fred to wake up from his stupor, and Adele on the side had already rushed over and jumped on a No. 4 tank, hugged the turret and put his face on its armor.

The performance of the two was all in Su Jin's eyes. Su Jin also nodded secretly, this father and daughter are people who really love tanks, although there are some objective reasons why they are willing to serve in their own troops. But the love for armored forces is also an important factor.

Looking at the two of them, who were still immersed in excitement, Su Jin chuckled and took out a box of camel brand cigarettes and matches from his pocket......

A cigarette was smoked until only the butt of the cigarette remained, Fred and Adele jumped from the tank, and Fred's face still had the afterglow of excitement that had not completely subsided and said to Su Jin with a hint of apology: "Sir, I'm really sorry, I'm so excited." ”

Su Jin chuckled lightly and flicked off the cigarette butt in his hand: "It's okay." Fred, I see your enthusiasm for armored forces from what just happened. I have always wondered whether an armored commander is good or not. The amount of knowledge is not the decisive factor, but depends on his love for the troops, and from you I see the excellence and enthusiasm of a German officer. ”

Hearing this, Fred was of course very useful. Even Adele's eyes when she looked at Su Jin were a little less indifferent. A little softer.

Looking at the eyes of the two of them, who had changed greatly, Su Jin laughed and said, "How about it, can I still satisfy the two of you with the things here?" ”

"Of course!" Fred nodded with satisfaction: "Objectively speaking, most of the tanks you have here can only be equipped by the most elite armored units even in the German Empire, and some of them have never been seen before, which is really surprising to me." ”

Su Jin smiled, and instead of being complacent about Fred's praise, he said sincerely: "Colonel Fred." I'm not here to hear your compliments, other than to show you the equipment you're going to wield. I'd like to hear from you, a professional, and see what equipment the new armored regiment still needs, and I'll get it ready for you in the shortest possible time. ”

Fred thought while looking at the armored vehicles around him, and after a long while, he said: "Your Excellency, I have counted about thirty tanks No. 4, more than forty tanks No. 2, as well as a lot of ammunition trucks, trucks and bridge tanks, and even some anti-aircraft artillery, it seems that you have fully taken into account the roads, bridges and lack of air supremacy in your country, as far as I am concerned, there is nothing to add, the only question is when can you transfer soldiers to me, I took a general look and I needed at least three thousand soldiers to guarantee the operation of the armored regiment. ”

"The soldiers will have it, I can send you as much as you want." Su Jin said: "But the biggest problem now is that my country's education situation is very backward, and most of my troops are composed of uneducated peasants, so it may be difficult to train, do you have any good solutions for this?" ”

Frell was silent for a while before he said, "Your Excellency General, I don't have anything to do. In my original unit, the soldiers of the armored forces had to have at least a primary or even junior high school education, otherwise it would be difficult for them to understand the orders of the commander, if the soldiers did not have a little cultural foundation......"

Speaking of this, Fred shook his head and smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I don't know what will happen?" ”

Hearing this, Su Jin was silent, and after a long time, he said slowly: "If you don't have culture, you can learn, and if you can't learn, you will be eliminated." Starting tomorrow, you can go to the various units below to train the soldiers and officers you see fit, you can train them in the way you see fit, and if you don't meet the requirements, you will eliminate them. I think Major Adele should be more experienced in this regard, can you take on this task? Speaking of this, Su Jin's gaze had already turned to Adele.

"This ......" Adele hesitated: "Your Excellency General, although I have served as an instructor for two years and have some experience in how to impart knowledge to soldiers, my biggest weakness now is that I can't speak Chinese, so it will be very ......"

"I can't speak Chinese to learn!" Su Jin decisively interrupted her words: "As an instructor, language should not be a stumbling block that restricts your growth, you should kick it away." I can give you time, but my requirement is that you must be able to communicate with your soldiers proficiently in Chinese within three months, a skill that a commander must master. If you can't, then I'll have to transfer you out of the armoured units, or learn how to be a nurse from your mother at the hospital, or work as a storekeeper in the logistics department! ”

"What...... You ......"

Hearing this, Adele's pretty face turned red, which was angered by Su Jin. For her, who has a strong self-esteem and loves armored forces, it would undoubtedly be a great insult to her to be transferred to a hospital as a nurse or a storekeeper.

"Your Excellency, are you insulting me?" Adele, who has a strong sense of self-esteem, couldn't help but ask angrily.

"No...... This is not an insult, but a statement of fact. Su Jin said lightly: "If you can't even communicate with the soldiers at the most basic level, then how can you command them to fight, and how can you teach them knowledge?" ”

"I ......"

Adele wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Fred: "Enough...... Adele, the general is right, a commander cannot lead the soldiers into battle without their face-to-face communication. ”

Hearing this, Adele stopped talking, Fred's words naturally made sense, if a commander can't communicate smoothly with his soldiers, how to give combat orders, how to teach them knowledge.

Su Jin also said solemnly: "Major Adele, I can give you three months, if you can't do the most basic communication with the soldiers in these three months, then I just regret transferring you from the armored regiment." Because I don't want my soldiers to lose their lives one day because their commanders don't speak Chinese. ”

"You can rest assured...... I will definitely learn Chinese well! Adele's words literally erupted from between her teeth, and her silver teeth were tight as she spoke, and her big eyes were about to erupt with flames.

Facing the gaze of the murderous version, Su Jin directly ignored it, and instead said to Fred with a smile: "My regiment commander, I will hand over the armored regiment to you next." ”

"Thank you for the trust of the general, I will definitely do my job!"

"That's good!"

Hearing Fred's words, Su Jin nodded slightly, although this old-fashioned German didn't say anything grandiose, but Su Jin knew that old-fashioned Germans were like this, as long as they took over something, then they would do their best to do it well.

But what Su Jin didn't expect was that in the following days, people kept coming to him to complain, because this Colonel Fred actually went to each regiment of the division under the banner of Su Jin to select officers and soldiers, which made the officers of the troops below complain, and in less than three days, Li Wei came to the door angrily.

"Shizuo, this foreign devil is too disagreeable, these days he just went to my army to select soldiers, after all, there are still a lot of veterans in my army, and it doesn't matter if you pick some away. But now it's good that he even started to pick officers, yesterday alone he got rid of more than 20 of my squad leaders, more than 10 platoon commanders and company commanders, and today he even began to dig up the battalion commanders, how can my 348th Brigade still fight? ”

Su Jin put down the document in his hand, looked at Li Wei with a sharp gaze, and continued for several minutes before he said in a deep voice: "Li Daluzao, I remember that your 348th Brigade is a force with three regiments of nearly 9,000 people, what's the matter?" Just transferred dozens of squad leaders and company commanders, so they can't fight? So, if in wartime all these people are killed, your brigade will not fight? Or is it that if an officer above the battalion level is killed, he can't fight? ”

"It's not...... I ......"

"Smack......

A crisp sound sounded, and Su Jin slapped the table and scolded: "What am I, I told you a long time ago, as long as it is needed by the armored regiment, you must give priority to support, and you take your words as wind in your ears?" (To be continued.) )
