Chapter 13 Platoon Commander

"I said comrade." Deng Yue asked, "What kind of position do you have in the regiment?" ”

"Report to the division commander. I am...... Warrior! ”

"Huh?" Deng Yue looked at the head of Chu beside him in confusion and said, "I said Lao Chu, such an excellent soldier, why don't you have any position?" ”

"This ......" Head Chu was stumped by this question.

"Report to the Divisional Commander." I relieved the siege for Regiment Commander Chu and said: "I fainted halfway, I was rescued by the old squad leader, and I forgot all the previous things, so I joined the 354th regiment." I've only been in the group for two days, and Captain Chu doesn't know that I should too. ”

"Oh, I see." Deng Yue nodded and said to Commander Chu: "Old Chu, there are many fighters in our team who dare to fight, but there are not many fighters with brains like this comrade, our revolutionary team should develop such comrades, I think he can lead the troops, what do you say?" ”

"Yes, Commander." Commander Chu said approvingly: "It's better to let him be a platoon commander first!" ”

"Platoon commander?" As far as I know, the combat habits of the soldiers of the Chinese Volunteers are completely different from those of the American soldiers and the South Korean Army, and they protect their officers when they fight, while the officers below the battalion level of the volunteer soldiers have to take the lead in the charge, so the casualty rate of officers in the Volunteer Army is particularly large, and it is common for two or three company commanders and platoon commanders to be exchanged in a battle. This is worth it, and if I am the platoon commander, it will not cost me my life......

"Report to the Divisional Commander." Thinking of this, I hurriedly saluted tremblingly and said, "I...... I like to be a soldier, I'm not a soldier! ”

"Hey, you've led soldiers before?" Deng Yue asked.

"No, no."

"I haven't brought soldiers, how do you know that you are not a soldier material? And humble! ”

I don't feel speechless, I can't think of any excuse after thinking about it for a long time, I regret it in my heart, what are you doing in the limelight, isn't this pushing yourself to the muzzle?

"Report!" At this time, a guard's report relieved me of the siege, and he saluted: "Report to the division commander, there is a person who wants to see you, and he said that it is Major General Jin Zhongsong, commander of the 15th Division of the People's Army!" ”

"Huh?" Deng Yue said with some surprise: "It turns out that a comrade from the fraternal party is here, please!" ”

After a while, I saw Jin Zhongsong and his party come forward, and naturally that set of lines was indispensable, but fortunately, there was a translator by Mr. Deng's side, and I also saved myself the pain of being nameless. And judging from the smiles on the faces of Kim Jong-song's men, their joy was still genuine. After all, it is not easy to annihilate a regiment of the South Korean Army so cleanly and capture a large amount of equipment, even if the number is superior.

"It's them again!" Commander Chu muttered: "I will come after the battle, and it is really the right time to come." ”

"Captain, look." I pointed to Vykosky, who was standing alone due to the language barrier.

"That's right! drip! As soon as Commander Chu saw him, he gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't he still say that our broken equipment can't beat the enemy?" Now that the battle has been won, comrade, go and ask and see what he has to say! ”

"Yes!"

I turned around and walked to Vykosky, handed over the only cigarette I had from Huzi, lit a fire and said: "Comrade Vykosky, we don't have planes, artillery, or tanks, so we can get by with this battle!" ”

Vykorsky was stunned for a moment, looked at me and quickly recognized me, he smiled and said: "Comrade, it also depends on who the opponent is, before you came, wasn't the South Korean army also our defeated general?" What is it if you can beat them, and tell me if you can beat the Americans! ”

"Huh?" I never expected him to say that, and I was stunned for a long time and didn't know what to say.

"What's wrong?" Head Chu stepped forward.

He ...... He said that it is good to be able to defeat the Americans! ”

"Ball!" Captain Chu's face sank, and he didn't care whether Vykosky would understand it or not, so he only yelled at him: "The Americans are birds, and Lao Tzu will call you!" ”

After saying that, he left without looking back, and he really had a bullish temper that refused to admit defeat.

After searching for a while and asking a few people, I found the company in the open space in the two wooden houses. The comrades-in-arms have long taken advantage of this gap to seize the time to rest. They were in groups of two or three, gathered together to keep warm, and the three or eight guns were placed within reach, although it looked a little messy, but it was conceivable that as long as there was a movement or order, they would enter the combat state in the shortest possible time.

I pressed the cotton cap on my head, found a corner, leaned my rifle to the side, put a few wooden sticks on my buttocks, and sat down on my buttocks, covering the march to warm up. From time to time, there were a few rumbling cannons in the darkness in the distance, and the light from the artillery fire was bright or dark like lightning, but there was constant snoring around me, which made me have a new understanding of the quality of the volunteers.

This is the real warrior, do your best when fighting, and relax when you rest, and only in this way can you recover your physical strength as soon as possible, so that you still have the energy and physical strength to face the next march or war. And I, although exhausted at this time, couldn't sleep.

"Cui Wei!"

"Here!" When I turned my head and saw that it was Captain Chu, I reflexively stood up.

"Shh......h Be quiet. Captain Chu lowered his voice, and woke up several people one after another to gather together, and I didn't know the rest of these people except for the old squad leader.

Regiment Commander Chu sat beside me with great difficulty, and said with a solemn expression: "Comrades, Platoon Commander Chen unfortunately died in this battle. Platoon Commander Chen is a good comrade! Climb with us over the snowy mountains and across the meadows. Little Japan is finished, *** is also finished, and his old Chen married a daughter-in-law to live a small life at home, no, the baby is still in her daughter-in-law's belly and goes to the battlefield again. Just one stray bullet is ......"

Speaking of this, Head Chu's voice was so choked that he couldn't go on, and the others also lowered their heads secretly sadly.

"I propose." After being silent for a while, Regiment Commander Chu continued: "I propose that Comrade Cui Wei take over the position of Platoon Commander Chen and serve as the platoon commander of the third platoon, what are the opinions of the comrades?" ”

"Captain! I ......, "I'm in a bit of a hurry again."

Except for the old squad leader, everyone else showed a little doubt on their faces, and a few eyes looked at me unconsciously. No wonder they are so strange, I have only been in this regiment for more than a day, and I have become a platoon commander before I am familiar with people, how can I not make them wonder.

"I agree!" At this time, the old squad leader spoke, and he said slowly: "Although Comrade Cui Wei has only been in our regiment for one day, he fought bravely, and killed more than a dozen of them and captured four alive in one breath when he was in the two water caves. This significantly reduced our losses, and at the same time hit the enemy. No, our group has shown its face, and no one can catch up with him in terms of merit and intelligence, I agree. ”

"Oh!"

Listening to what the old squad leader said, everyone realized that I came up with the idea of shoveling snow and putting out fires, and no one can compare to me when it comes to combat merits. At this time, the people who were originally confused and dissatisfied now have no objections.

"But Commander, I ......"

"Don't me, I'm like a." Commander Chu glared at him and said categorically: "In the future, you will be the platoon commander of this platoon!" Oh, this is an American gun that was just taken from those puppet soldiers - big eight, good thing! And this, the box cannon left by Platoon Commander Chen! ”

Speaking of this, Regiment Commander Chu flashed the bright red blood stains on the box to me and said: "There is still platoon Commander Chen's blood on it, Comrade Cui, I hope you can pass on Platoon Commander Chen's spirit of not being afraid of death and sacrifice, and avenge Platoon Commander Chen!" Avenge the death of our comrades! Shed the last drop of blood for our Motherland! ”

"Yes!" I couldn't make any excuses when I was illuminated by this blood, so I silently took the heavy pistol and rifle, and suddenly felt a lot heavier on my shoulders.
