994. The role of money is great

Units like the 74th Army constantly participated in tough battles and vicious battles, and the middle and lower-level officers suffered great losses, just like in the last Wanjialing siege and annihilation battle, 3 of the 4 regiment commanders of the 51st Division were wounded, and 7 of the 9 battalion commanders of the 305th Regiment were killed or wounded.

Not to mention the company commander, just the three dogs and the three company commanders of their three battalions sacrificed 2 seriously injured and 1 (three dogs), and the last soldiers in the battalion who survived were less than a hundred.

The attrition rate of such officers is extremely great, and the damage to the troops is also extremely great, and these battalion and company commanders are not ranked up in peacetime, but are fought with real swords and guns, and they are all the elite of the elite.

Middle- and lower-ranking officers are the backbone of a unit, and only when the backbone is present can they support the original spirit and style of this unit, otherwise every time there is a change of blood, the unit will step down a little.

This time, almost all of the three battalions were changed once, and there were more than 500 people in the battalion, including more than 400 recruits, and it was precisely because of the surviving group of officers of the old seventh company of the three dogs that they could support the current spirit of the third battalion.

Sangou is the soul of the original old Seventh Company, and now it is also the soul of the rebuilt three battalions, and Liu Guangyu, the acting head of the 305th Regiment, knows what Sangou means to the three battalions.

Therefore, the guard platoon will be arranged to strictly guard the three dogs, and this treatment is not only enjoyed by the three dogs, but also the two battalion commanders of the first and second battalions also enjoy such "high-level" treatment.

Jiang Zhonghan, the original guard team, has now risen with Sangou's position and has been promoted to the commander of the guard platoon.

It is enough to have a guard squad to protect the battalion headquarters, there is no need to be so pompous, but the head of Liu Guangyu resolutely disagrees, and after the three dogs come back from visiting relatives, they must give a guard platoon to the establishment.

Sangou couldn't refuse, so he had to let Xiao Jiang go to the recruits and pick some people to supplement a platoon, and Xiao Jiang was naturally promoted from squad leader to platoon leader.

Xiao Jiang is a Hunan boy with Da Niu, Goudan, and Shi Yan, and they were supplemented by the soldiers who were replenished in Jingzhou last year, so Xiao Jiang was the fastest to rise, the first to be promoted to platoon leader, and the others were only squad leaders at most.

Everyone is envious and agrees, after all, Xiao Jiang's skills were good before, and after becoming the guardian of the three dogs, he trained harder and apprenticed everywhere, especially with the dog-legged Changhua and they practiced kung fu hard.

Now Xiao Jiang's skills, in the third battalion, except for top masters like monks who can't be compared, and ruthless characters such as dog-legged Changhua, other people really don't dare to say that they can beat him.

Besides, being the guardian of the three dogs is very dangerous, last year's Xiao Xiang, Xiang Chucai, was sacrificed near Kaifeng.

Therefore, although the people who came with Xiao Jiang and his gang envied Xiao Jiang for being a platoon commander and getting more military salaries, they also felt that this was what they should be.

Besides, Xiao Jiang was also deeply influenced by the three dogs, and the first time he received the platoon commander's salary, he invited Da Niu, Goudan, Shi Yan and others to give a big meal, in addition, as long as these fellows open their mouths, they will generally take care of a little.

Sangou said to him, in the army, a place where people eat with their heads, you can't take money too seriously, it's too heavy, and when you come to spare your life, you don't dare to fight when you should fight hard, but it is the most dangerous, the first to die.

Secondly, if people who value money too much, they will inevitably become selfish or not generous, which will make their comrades-in-arms have ideas and even opinions, and sometimes they will offend them.

On the battlefield, your life is in the hands of your comrades-in-arms and brothers.

If you offend them, when your life is at stake, you are injured, and you need everyone to save you, and they don't do their best, then you just wait for death, and no matter how much money you have accumulated, it will be spent on others.

Although most of the comrades-in-arms and brothers will not be so cautious on the battlefield, there is no guarantee that others will do so; In case this happens, then the money that has been saved up by hard work is really better to spend it on everyone's head as soon as possible.

Therefore, in the army, in the army during the war years, you can't take money too seriously, at least it's not too ugly to eat.

Now the 74th Army is a unit directly under the Central Military Commission, and everyone is not very short of money because of double salaries, but they can't be too picky, only eat other people's food, and don't pay their own money to entertain guests.

Of course, this is only a personal relationship, and it is certainly impossible to escape money, food and drink.

But the main monthly salary, the three dogs will ask the manager in the battalion company (similar to the position of secretary general and chief of special services) to send a large part of each soldier back to his hometown, usually about three-quarters.

Sangou did this because he was afraid that many young soldiers would not know what to do with the money, so they would eat and drink nonsense, but they were most afraid that they would gamble and go out to fool around.

Discipline in the army is the foundation and guarantee of combat effectiveness, but once such things as pornography, gambling, and drugs are contaminated, discipline will be gone, and the prestige of the commander of the army will also disappear, not to mention combat effectiveness.

Therefore, in addition to stucking them to death from the economic source, the three dogs are also extremely strict in military discipline, and even the six relatives do not recognize the iron-faced selflessness.

No matter who it is, as long as he is stained with pornography, gambling, drugs, and 100 military sticks, which is the minimum consumption, he must be beaten until he lies down for several days and cannot get up, and then depending on the degree of his violation of discipline, the degree of seriousness will be sent to the military justice department.

As for infringing on the interests of the common people, this kind of violation of discipline is even more serious in the current troops, and as I said before, in China, both the Chinese and Japanese armies are winning the hearts and minds of the common people.

The consequences of the soldiers of the army invading the people are very serious, and the people's hearts and minds are lost, not only can the army not be able to recruit soldiers, but there is no help and intelligence from the local people when the war is fought.

What is serious is that the common people are likely to help the enemy, and it is not uncommon for the people to help and abet on abuse, and water can carry a boat or overturn a boat, and the people's heart is water, and the boat is the army and the country.

Especially in the 74th Army, a model army is a model for the whole army, and there must not be the slightest violation of discipline against the people, this is a red line, and whoever dares to touch it will die, and no one can cover it.

Besides, the soldiers of the 74th Army are now "rich", although they don't think about the three dogs, but the soldiers of other units think so, double salary, even if it is half of the national disaster, it is also double that of others, the key is not to be in arrears.

Therefore, it is impossible to say that such a "rich" person has to encroach on the interests of the people, in order to prevent this situation from occurring in the soldiers of the third battalion, the three dogs spent a lot of time doing relevant ideological work during the training.

At the same time, in addition to providing everyone with basic living security as much as possible, send their excess money to their respective homes in a timely manner, so as not to let them study "badly" when they have money.

Also, after Sangou returned to the army, he sent a sum of money to open a garment factory to Mingcheng in his hometown, and also reported the approximate size of the underwear and socks of the soldiers of the three battalions.

Not long ago, after receiving a letter from Ming Cheng, the joint venture garment factory in his hometown has been set up in full swing, and according to Sangou's instructions, the families of those martyrs will be arranged to work in the factory first, followed by the families of soldiers.
