Chapter 30 Cooperation

Chapter 30 Cooperation

The training of the Cold Gun Unit and the Seventh Company soon began, and the time was still chosen at night as usual.

As a matter of fact, our training site was on the anticline position on the 649.8 height, and although it was said that the enemy was on the opposite side of the enemy to shoot at a dead end, we still did not dare to openly carry out training activities during the day. The first is to worry about letting the enemy see what clues, and the second is to avoid unnecessary casualties among the soldiers due to enemy shelling. You must know that the soldiers of the Cold Gun Force and the seven companies under Li Guoqiang are all treasures of our 538 Regiment.

But I could also tell that the soldiers were not very happy, not because they were unwilling to obey my orders, but because training like this did not 'stir' their nerves at all.

I can understand their psychology, although the number of this unit is small, but each of them has crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood after a hundred battles, and the seventh company led by Li Guoqiang is like this, and the soldiers of the cold gun unit are even more so. These soldiers have long been accustomed to seeing big scenes and seeing a lot of bullets and bullets, but now if they are allowed to train on this battlefield where there are few enemies and there is almost no danger, where can they still afford to fight the 'spirit' spirit

A phrase that veterans often say, that is, if you fight a lot, you will slowly become an old fritter. Old fritters are also called veteran oil. The recruits who had just entered the battlefield were scared half to death when they heard the gunshots, and the veterans slept with their heads covered even when the shells exploded next to them. Although there is an experienced side to this, there is also a sense of low positive 'sex'.

The soldiers of the Cold Gun Unit and the Seventh Company seem to be such veteran oils. Although they had to carry out this training task because of my orders, their unhappiness naturally manifested itself in the training, such as weakness when charging, movement, agility and coordination, etc., all of which could not achieve the desired effect. Let Liu Shunyi, who was directly responsible for training them, frown.

Of course, this can't include Lin Xue, who has just joined the Cold Gun Army. Lin Xue is not a veteran, she has been training in advanced rifles before, so the current training task is like a fish in water for her. And she also seemed to be interested in showing herself in front of me, so she showed extraordinary positivity in every training session, and her active shadow was everywhere on the training ground.

Because negotiations had just resumed during this time, there was basically no fighting on the front of the front, so I, the regiment commander, was idle, and I followed Liu Shunyi to the training ground to watch their training if I had nothing to do.

In the establishment of the troops, Liu Shunyi separated the cold-gun troops from the combat units according to my intentions. Except for the first squad leader of the cold gun unit who died in the last battle and was replaced by Wang Xinhe, who had just arrived, there was basically no change.

Looking at it, I felt that something was wrong, and I was still wondering why Liu Shunyi was still training soldiers to throw bombs, charge, shoot targets, and build positions, etc., so that it seemed to be no different from other troops, and it was no wonder that the soldiers couldn't afford to fight the 'spirit'......

"Deputy Regiment Commander Liu" thought about it, and I couldn't help but ask Liu Shunyi, who was still commanding the soldiers, and said, "This training ...... Anything else? ”

"Report Regiment Leader" Liu Shunyi turned around and stood in front of me and said: "The task of our unit is mainly to sneak attack the enemy's forward position, and then hold the position for two to three hours, so I think the training for them is mainly to let the cold gun troops and combat units cooperate with each other to take the position, and then build a position defense."

"So you train them how to cooperate with the charge, how to build positions and establish a defensive line?" I asked rhetorically.

"What does Captain Cui mean......" Liu Shunyi looked at me with some puzzlement.

Looking at the doubts and confusion on Liu Shunyi's face, I can understand one thing, that is, there is no such thing as special forces in the volunteer army, and when fighting a war, it is either a charge or a defense, and when it comes to completing special tasks, scouts are mostly sent to complete it. And the training of regular troops has formed a unified model that cannot be broken through. As a deputy commander of the Volunteer Army, Liu Shunyi certainly did not know how to train such a special unit.

It is no wonder that the volunteer soldiers were caught off guard when they faced the "White Commando", a special service unit of the puppet army that penetrated deep into North Korea, in the later stage.

No, if Liu Shunyi is allowed to train like this, this 'elite' elite unit is only afraid that it will become much different from an ordinary army, but the members are a little more experienced and have more accurate marksmanship.

Liu Shunyi is good at military training, but the training methods in his head are still the same as before, and there is no way to give full play to the advantages of night vision devices and walkie-talkies in the hands of soldiers. And what I want is a force that can get the most out of the battle at the lowest cost

Thinking of this, I casually asked Liu Shunyi: "How did the reconnaissance platoon dig the tunnel at the front of the enemy's position?" ”

"It went well, nothing went wrong," Liu Shunyi replied: "The comrades of the reconnaissance platoon chose three positions as the mouth of the tunnel, and the first night was more dangerous, because they had to be careful to avoid the enemy patrols, and they also had to pay attention to scattering the new soil, so the progress was very slow. After the second day, it was much easier, because all the soldiers could hide in the dug tunnel, and the new soil could be stored in the tunnel for a while, and it was already four or five meters deep."

"Deputy Regiment Commander Liu" I said: "The task of the reconnaissance unit to build tunnels on the enemy's forward positions is not trivial, and it may have a direct bearing on whether or not we can succeed in this battle. For the sake of insurance, I think you should concentrate on the progress of the tunnel, and it is better to train the Seventh Company and the Cold Gun Troops, and Political Commissar Li and I have nothing to do during this time, so we will 'hand' it over to us for the time being."

"Yes" Liu Shunyi responded, and he also agreed with my statement, after all, the matter of the tunnel does have to be paid attention to at all times, so I don't feel that there is anything wrong.

In other words, this is the art of speaking, if I point at him and criticize him, say how can you train like this, that kind of training, and then say to Liu Shunyi: You still don't want to train soldiers, just 'hand' it over to me and Li Pinghe

Liu Shunyi, who did this, will definitely accept the order, after all, he will obey the order if he is a soldier, but he will definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart, as soon as this person is uncomfortable, he will be awkward and will not be so dedicated to his work

But after Liu Shunyi gathered the cadres of the army and 'handed them over' to me, I couldn't help but feel worried again. I used to be a journalist, so to speak, I used to fight the world with a pen, and I have never trained any soldiers, let alone trained any special forces, at this time, facing this group of soldiers who looked at me expectantly, especially the Lin Xue who was standing not far away, looked at me with a look of challenge in her eyes, as if to say: "Let the horse come over and see what you are capable of"

"Are the gestures unified?" I asked casually.

"Regiment commander" One of the soldiers raised the walkie-talkie clipped to the collar and said, "With this thing, do you still need a gesture?" ”

"Of course," I glared at and said fiercely, "Don't make a gesture, what if the enemy is right in front of us?" Give me a whole set of uniform gestures right away."

"Wait, don't fix it," I changed my words and said to Hu Zudi: "Let's use the gestures of the cold gun troops in this way, and let the soldiers of the cold gun troops teach the gestures after the meeting."

"Yes," the fighters responded.

Special forces...... How can the unit in front of you be trained into a special forces? At this time, my mind suddenly flashed the appearance of those special forces on TV and movies in modern times, and I couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration: yes, can you train a special forces according to that look? It doesn't matter how he trains, as long as he can fight and fight well on the battlefield, just like the gestures of the soldiers, it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, as long as he can clearly express his consciousness

Thinking about it, he immediately asked, "How are your walkie-talkies distributed?" ”

Li Guoqiang, the head of the report, replied: "There is one cadre at and above the platoon level in the combat unit, one for each cadre above the squad level in the cold-gun unit."

"What about the others?" I asked.

There are more than 40 walkie-talkies, and if they are distributed in this way, only a dozen will be used at most.

"What does Deputy Head Liu mean...... It's a combination of others."

I couldn't help but smile a little bitterly when I heard this, this Liu Shunyi was afraid that he regarded the walkie-talkie as a treasure, so he was reluctant to use it, although the walkie-talkie was good, but in my eyes, even if it was advanced equipment, where would it compare to the lives of the soldiers.

So he immediately ordered: "The distribution of walkie-talkies will be changed to one for each squad of combat units and one for each cold-gun unit."

With a coax, the warriors began to talk. I obviously focused on the conclusion of the soldiers of the cold gun unit, which made the soldiers of Li Guoqiang's combat unit a little unconvinced, and even Li Guoqiang's face was a little unhappy

"What's the noise?" I straightened my face and scolded at the soldiers: "Not convinced? Or is it the 'elite' troops of our 538th Regiment who are starting to get emotional? ”

"Head Cui......" Li Guoqiang took off his hat and said with some grievances: "Let, let's not make a fuss, you ...... Isn't this a deliberate attempt to look down on us? Why is there only one person in the cold gun unit, and we still have to be a squad leader to have one? ”

"Why?" I said angrily: "Just rely on the cold guns of other people's troops to lurk and shoot cold guns"

I pointed to the dark positions around me and said: "You don't want to think about it, the soldiers of the cold gun troops are all scattered on the position and lurking, it can be said that the officers can't find the soldiers, and the soldiers can't find the officers. Can your troops be the same? Most of you fight in a platoon and go up, why do you need so many walkie-talkies? When to eat? ”

As soon as I say this, the soldiers will understand, and they can't help but look at me and I look at you, and they all know that the emotions just now are indeed unreasonable.

"It's not that I said you," I said with my index finger in the air to Li Guoqiang and the others: "You are all my old subordinates, all brothers who were born and died with me, can I still look down on you?" Can it still be eccentric? I assign it according to actual needs, don't you know? ”

"Commander, we understand" Li Guoqiang smiled embarrassedly, and said: "You, just continue to give orders, let's not interrupt"

"Yes, let's all listen to the captain"

"Resolutely obey orders, do not engage in individualism"

……

The statements of the soldiers make me not feel angry and funny, they are actually not emotional, but the common problem of the volunteer soldiers, that is, the most unbearable to let others look down on me at this time, knowing that I don't look down on them, where will there be any emotions

"This ......" recalled the scenes of the special forces attacking in modern movie shots, and I continued: "The most important purpose of our training is the coordination between the cold-gun unit and the combat unit. How do cold-gun troops and combat units cooperate? This requires you to be able to use each other and rely on each other."

"Use each other? Rely on each other? "Listening to what I said, the soldiers, including the fighters of the cold gun unit, were a little confused.

"That's right" I nodded and said: "Our army is different from other troops, and the fighting style is also different, which is also the purpose of my formation of this army, what I want is not that you are brave, nor how can you fight, but that you cooperate with the soldiers around you, and at the same time cooperate with the soldiers of the cold gun unit, I want you to do the whole army as if it were a person, so that you can preserve yourself well and destroy the enemy, and finally achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost."

Soldiers, you look at me, I look at you, they all seem to be a little incomprehensible, some of the fighters are nodding, but I know that they don't seem to understand, and some of them are even very likely to understand wrong, so I have to explain with specific examples......

"Li Guoqiang"

"To"

I pointed to a dark stone diagonally above and asked, "What would you do if there were two enemy sharpshooters hiding behind that stone?" ”

"What else can I do? The machine gunner took cover, and took a squad up to beat his mother," Li Guoqiang said with a grin.

I shook my head with a wry smile, raised the M1 rifle in my hand and shook it in front of Li Guoqiang, and said: "The enemy's two sharpshooters are condescending, and if they are in a good position, the machine gun fire may not be able to suppress them. Yankee rifles are no stranger to you, they can shoot eight rounds at a time, two rifles are sixteen rounds, if they have good marksmanship, you have not rushed to half of the dozen people in this class, but I am afraid that they will all lie on the road."

The "regiment commander" also had a soldier who said unconvinced: "We are not recruits, we know how to find cover, the enemy wants to put us all down so quickly, how easy is it?" ”

"Why don't we try?" I grabbed my rifle and said, "Actually, I don't need two sharpshooters from the enemy, just one of me is enough."

The soldier stuck out his tongue in fright, scratched his head and said, "The regimental commander is okay, how can the enemy's sharpshooter be so capable as the regimental commander?" ”

"Why not?" I asked rhetorically, "I almost died under the enemy's sharpshooter the other day, and you all forgot?" What if there was another one? The lives of the soldiers of your squad are on the line? Just a dozen rounds of bullets from the enemy? ”

As soon as I said this, the warriors stopped talking.

"So......" I continued, "you have to use each other and rely on each other, and then you have to think of the soldiers of the cold gun unit behind you, as long as you tell the enemy's position through the walkie-talkie to the soldiers of the cold gun unit, we three or four sharpshooters will aim the muzzle of the gun, plus the soldiers of the cold gun unit and the night vision device, as long as they come up, make sure to let their heads 'flower' What does it mean to save yourself?" This is called saving yourself, you just need to say it on the walkie-talkie, and no one will be injured, but you are stunned to fight a class, do you say there is such a war? ”

The soldiers were speechless when they heard this, and Li Guoqiang was even more ashamed, not knowing what to say

"Soldiers of the cold gun troops," I turned to Hu Zudi and said: "You don't need to charge into battle, but you must follow closely behind the combat troops, and at all times, you must pay attention to occupying the commanding heights, and you can protect the combat troops charging forward from different directions and angles." You are like an extension of the firepower of the combat troops, and you must always be on the lookout for suspicious positions that may pose a threat to the combat troops, and take out the enemy's hidden firepower points before the enemy. And when the combat unit transmits the enemy's position, it can accurately and timely lock on to the enemy's firepower point"

"Understood" Hu Zudi nodded, what I said was not difficult to understand for the cold gun troops with experience in latent operations. Because that's pretty much what they had to do when they used to shoot cold, but now it's just more than the task of protecting combat troops.

"Battalion Commander Li," I turned to Li Guoqiang and continued: "Think about how the Yankees fight, when they fight, a unit is divided into several groups, covering each other to attack, and when they encounter a dangerous or difficult firepower point in front, they will summon artillery units or planes to blow it up first. That's pretty much what you're going to learn."

"What?" Hearing that Li Guoqiang didn't understand again, Tengdi stood up and asked, "Yes, do you want us to learn the Yankees' style of play?" Do you want to learn from imperialism? ”

"Yes, Commander Cui" The other soldiers also couldn't figure it out, and asked one after another:

"This Yankee will play like that, isn't it still for us to lie down? Now are we going to learn from them? ”

"The Yankees ran away when they hit a nail, and then they called artillery and planes, should we run away like them?"

"yes, isn't it a shame?"

……

Seeing such a big reaction from the fighters, I couldn't help but secretly complain. Isn't it even more difficult to get them to accept this style of play, when they have just been talking and forgetting to draw a line with US imperialism, and now that they have been raised to the level of class struggle by the fighters?

It is said that every new thing has to go through a struggle to be accepted and developed under the old system, which is really good
