Chapter 140: Train hard to forge the soul of the army

Shuihe Village. Training ground in the northwest of the village.

Ma Fucai looked at Yu Genshan, holding half a cigarette between the fingers of his right hand and said:

"Commander, your characteristics are so obvious that as soon as I smell the smoke of the Xibao Hade Gate, I know that you are here, and of course, several other leaders are also here. So, I order the sentries to launch a surprise attack on you, to test the stealth of my sentries and the suddenness of their movements. ”

"Huh? Company Commander Ma, you smell smoke dozens of meters away? You're a little wicked, aren't you? Staff Officer Wu said in surprise.

"Staff Officer Wu, it's not evil at all. We are in the northwest and you are in the southeast, separated by dozens of meters, and when the southeast wind blows, it is strange that you can't smell it. Ma Fucai explained.

"Oh, yes. We didn't even notice it, we were surrounded by your hidden sentinels, and we didn't notice it. If it's on the battlefield, we'll be reimbursed. Yu Genshan said self-deprecatingly.

Chief of Staff: "Company Commander Ma, how do you use spears and broadswords in your sixth company training?" Why not use a rifle? ”

Ma Fucai: "Chief of Staff, the rifle is too precious to our Eighth Route Army, it is the second life of the soldiers, and it is easy to be damaged during training, especially for assassination training, we are reluctant." The use of spears and broadswords in training and combat is no worse than that of a rifle. ”

Huang Zhongde: "You can train with wooden guns, how dangerous it is to train with spears and broadswords, soldiers will be injured if they are not careful." ”

Ma Fucai: "That's right, it's easy to get hurt. However, only by practicing in this way can there be a sense of actual combat and tension, and the soldiers will be fully engaged in training. Training with a wooden gun will make people relax and slack, and without a sense of tension and crisis, it is impossible to practice real kung fu. Company Commander Fang has long said that what weapon is used when fighting with devils with bayonets, what weapon is used during training, and it must be practiced to the point that it is handy, superb, man-gun, and man-knife one. It is also necessary to cover and support each other. He also said that the devil is a mad dog, and we have to train into a lion and a tiger and forge an indestructible military soul like steel, and only in this way can we completely defeat the Japanese devil. ”

Chief of Staff: "Well, that's a good point, it makes sense." ”

Political Commissar: "Company Commander Ma, what kind of formation did you practice just now?" ”

Ma Fucai: "Oh, this is the Bagua Jiaolong Array specially designed by Company Commander Fang for our Sixth Company. ”

Staff Officer Wu: "Gossip Jiaolong Array? What's the point of that? ”

"It's very exquisite. When the devil fights with us with bayonets, he must not fight alone. According to the infantry drill of the Japanese army, when fighting bayonets, the devil soldiers are two people as a team, cooperate with each other, support each other, advance and retreat in unison, attack and defense in an orderly manner, and the effect of assassination and victory is obvious. We are in groups of three, standing in a zigzag position, with one spear and two knives, the spear in front and the knife in the back. The formation of squad phalanx, platoon phalanx, and company phalanx, and what kind of formation to use in battle depends on the situation on the battlefield. ”

Chief of Staff: "How's it going?" ”

Ma Fucai: "In many previous battles, Company Commander Fang led us to fight the devils in a whole platoon formation, and the actual combat effect was very good. Once the enemy is surrounded by us, don't think about coming out alive. It's just that at that time, the scale was small, not very skilled, and there were few changes in formation. ”

Yu Genshan: "Really? Is it so powerful? ”

Ma Fucai: "Yes, it's that powerful." Commander, if you don't believe it, you're going to try. ”

Yu Genshan: "Try it, I don't believe you can surround us people." The Chief of Staff, Battalion Commander Han, Staff Officer Wu, and a few of you came with me. Company Commander Ma, what kind of guy do we use? ”

Ma Fucai: "Commander, spears, broadswords, and rifles are your choice." A long line! Bring some spears and broadswords to the chiefs. ”

A platoon of rectangular tigers with a few spears and three warriors each with a few broadswords walked out of the queue and walked in front of the regimental leaders.

Yu Genshan, Chief of Staff, and Han Dagang chose spears, Staff Officer Wu and Deng Junsheng used broadswords, and the other seven or eight soldiers all put down their rifles and picked up broadswords.

Fang Hu, who had already been promoted to a platoon leader, took Ma Fucai's arm and walked to the side and whispered:

"Company commander, do you really want to train with them?"

"Ah, of course it's true, I'm taking this opportunity to experience the effect of our training."

"This? Can they? ”

"Okay? Huzi, I warn you, you must not take it lightly. The regiment commander and the chief of staff are both veterans who have gone through the Long March and experienced a hundred battles, and the combat effectiveness of the two of them is not ordinary. That Deputy Regiment Commander Han is even more proficient, in the past he was a senior apprentice of our company commander. ”

"Huh? Company commander, according to what you say, we have to be real.

"Yes, really. Remember, be quick and accurate. ”

"Huh? What if it hurts them? ”

"Don't hurt them, that's the principle. As long as you can't hurt them, you can fight as hard as you want. Let's do it......

The political commissar and Huang Zhongde stood on the edge of the training ground and talked quietly.

Huang Zhongde: "Political commissar, Company Commander Ma pulled the Sixth Company out of the village for training, what kind of reputation is he doing?" Doing secret training? ”

Political Commissar: "I don't know, maybe it's a rehearsal of an immature tactic, right?" Let's take a look. ”

Huang Zhongde: "Political commissar, this real training is very dangerous." ”

Commissar: "It's dangerous. But now no one can stop them, look at the excitement of the regiment commander and the chief of staff, do you say you can stop it? ”

Huang Zhongde: "Alas! May none of them be hurt. ”

Yu Genshan, Chief of Staff, Han Dagang, Staff Officer Wu, Deng Junsheng and the soldiers gathered around to study.

Yu Genshan said approvingly: "Okay, I'll see it." Just do what Deputy Commander Han said, as long as we are not surrounded by the Sixth Company, it will be a victory. ”

The other side. Fang Hu looked at Ma Fucai and smiled mischievously, nodded trustingly and said:

"Hey, company commander, just do as you say, you have to beat them all down, subdu, and admit defeat."

Ma Fucai: "Go, take the team to the training ground to set up the formation, and I'll go over." ”

"Yes!" Fang Hu returned to the training ground with the soldiers of the sixth company.

Ma Fucai turned around and walked to the side of the political commissar and Huang Zhongde:

"Political commissar, please be a referee for us, and you will judge who wins and who loses. All right? ”

Commissar: "Okay, I will make a fair judgment and ensure impartiality." ”

Ma Fucai: "Director Huang, aren't you practicing with us?" ”

Huang Zhongde: "Me? Alas, I can't do this knife and gun? ”

Ma Fucai: "Director Huang, you can't dance with a knife and a gun, so what are you doing?" ”

Huang Zhongde smiled a little embarrassedly and said:

"Me? I'm okay with dancing and writing. ”

"Humph!" Ma Fucai smiled, shook his head, and said unceremoniously: "Dance and ink? Director Huang, you can't compare to our company commander Fang, he used to be a top student at Furen University in Beiping. ”

Yu Genshan walked over with everyone with firm steps and full of confidence and asked:

"Company Commander Ma, are you ready? When are we going to start practicing? ”

Ma Fucai: "Regiment Commander, the sixth company is in formation, and we are waiting at any time." However, if you feel that you have no bottom in your heart, it is okay to regret quitting now. ”

Yu Genshan: "Hey? Company Commander Ma, don't treat me yet, I won't eat your set. Walk! Let's see you on the training ground! ”
