Chapter 35 Pre-War Training

At the meeting, I didn't dare to talk much, I could only carefully write down the task requirements, after the meeting, I took advantage of the company commander Sun Zhenwu alone in the study of the map, came to his tent and the company commander to catch up, the company commander has just left for half a year, the relationship between us is still there, while chatting, I also asked the questions in my heart, or called to say the complaints in my heart.

"Company commander, I have found out, the main task of our advance battalion is support? Just do them chores? "I was full of reluctance and unconvincing, and anyone could hear it. As a soldier, since I have come to the battlefield, who does not want to charge into battle, I naturally feel a little dissatisfied in my heart.

"What's wrong? Platoon Commander Gao Xiaofei, do you have an opinion on the arrangement of your superiors? Sun Zhenwu said in a serious tone, and the company commander was still as stern as before.

Seeing the company commander's straight face, I hurriedly said: "No, company commander, I don't have any opinions on the arrangement of my superiors." I resolutely obey orders, and I will resolutely complete whatever tasks are assigned by my superiors! ”

"Then what are you still complaining about me here?! If you can do it resolutely, you can do it according to the requirements! We are an army, and we are about to go to war, don't we need security to fight? Isn't it necessary to pave the bridge line for cooking? Is it just rushing forward with a gun? A unit is a whole, and since our battalion has been given such a task by our superiors, then we must resolutely complete such a task, how can there be so much nonsense?! If you hadn't said it to me in private, if you had said it in front of everyone, I would have removed you from your post, sentenced you to prison, and condemned you to the crime of shaking the morale of the army! Sun Zhenwu scolded and slapped the table, and the table slammed.

This is the first time I have seen the company commander and himself have such a big fire, I was so frightened that I didn't dare to breathe, I stood there motionless until Sun Zhenwu finished scolding, and finally said to me: "Hurry up and let me out, don't get in the way of my eyes here!" If you can't help, don't help me! Go back and see the reaction of the soldiers of the company, I have made it clear to you, what should you do when you go back, you don't need me to teach you again, right? ”

"No need, company commander, I see! I know what to do! ”

"Then why don't you hurry up, what are you waiting for?! Wait until I scold you again?! ”

"No, company commander. Goodbye company commander! ”

After saying that, I quickly slipped away. As soon as I got out of the tent, I wiped the sweat from my head. This scolding, it's really cool, just now I was self-righteous to go to the company commander to complain, now I understand, I'm just a cheap skin, don't be scolded uncomfortable, scolded comfortably, I understand everything.

I went to the company commander to discuss it with our three platoon commanders. After the meeting, the three platoon commanders got together to chat, and the more they talked, the more angry they became. Since I had worked with company commander Sun Zhenwu in the Third Company for a period of time and were relatively familiar with each other, the other platoon commanders asked me to ask in private. I didn't expect to be scolded for this question.

Seeing me return, the other two platoon commanders immediately came over to hear what the company commander had to say.

As soon as I sat down in the tent, I let out a long sigh and said to the other two platoon commanders: "Hey, you don't know, I was beaten bloody!" You didn't feel that scene, as if you were standing under the dark clouds and receiving the baptism of lightning and thunder, and I guess I can cross the catastrophe and ascend to immortal after scolding for a while! ”

The other two platoon commanders, one is Liu Chaoju, the platoon commander of the Second Frontier Company, and the other is He Yao, the platoon commander of the Fourth Frontier Company, who served as the second platoon commander and the third platoon commander of the second company of the advance battalion, respectively, and I was the platoon commander of the first platoon. Hearing my words, Liu Chaoju asked: "Platoon Commander Gao, weren't you and Company Commander Sun in the same company before, how could he scold you?" ”

"What's wrong with a company? Why won't a company scold me? Haven't you heard of the temper of our company commander? No one in the whole group is used to it, and I will scold whoever I say, and I am not qualified. I said with a look of course on my face.

"What do you mean about that? We're going to be miscellaneous for others? Liu Chaoju still said unconvinced.

"Hey, I'll tell you about this, and everyone will understand when they're done." Therefore, I told the other two platoon commanders about the understanding and understanding of Company Commander Sun's criticism and education, especially about the revolutionary division of labor and obedience to orders.

Listening to my words, the other two platoon commanders couldn't stop nodding, it was true, it was the three of them who stood too low before, and their thinking was too simple, they only thought about going into battle with enthusiasm to kill the enemy without considering the overall situation, and they didn't have a sense of the overall situation at all. The gap between people and people is actually here, the gap in the overall situation. Fan Zhongyan can say that "the worries of the world are worried, and the joy of the world is happy", therefore, Fan Zhongyan can go down in history; Premier Zhou can say "study for the rise of China", so Premier Zhou can become a great man of a generation. A person's position determines his development. Like the three of us, at most be a platoon leader. I can't help but sigh in my heart that my ability and quality need to be improved, and my ideological quality needs to be improved.

After the three of us sighed for a while, we were worried that there would still be such thoughts among ordinary soldiers, all of us who were platoon commanders, let alone ordinary soldiers. So the three of us hurried to the soldiers, and while completing the work tasks with the soldiers, we also talked and chatted with the soldiers, and in the chat, we shared our correct thinking and understanding with everyone.

By the time I went to bed at night, not only all the officers and men of the 2nd Company of the Advance Battalion to which I belonged had realized the truth of the revolutionary division of labor, but also the officers and men of other companies of the Advance Battalion had heard of this and agreed with it. The officers and men of the whole battalion no longer have any resentment in their hearts, and they are all seizing the time to accomplish various tasks and lay a good foundation for victory in the battle.

At the work report meeting in the evening, battalion commander Zhao Lixin also praised Sun Zhenwu, the commander of the 2nd company, and praised the platoon commander of their company for his high standing and ideological understanding. Of course, Sun Zhenwu would not say these words, these words were said when he scolded Gao Xiaofei. Isn't praising the platoon commander just praising him, Sun Zhenwu is really happy in his heart.

Inspired by such a spirit, it took only two days for the advance battalion to complete all its support tasks, just waiting for the arrival of a large force.

On the third day, a horde of chariots roared in, and the chariots came from afar like a storm, which was magnificent, a scene I had never seen before, and it was more magnificent than in the movie, and I was amazed that our army still looked very powerful and powerful. At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, all the other units participating in the battle arrived at the assembly area, and when they saw the various support construction that had been completed in the assembly area, the head of the command headquarters naturally praised them, and this made all the officers and men of the advance battalion feel very proud.

Since the advance battalion had already cleared the site in advance, after the other troops came, they only needed to set up tents, saving a lot of time, and in less than three hours, all the troops had completed the tent construction. All the personnel in the camp were running, and the sonorous and powerful steps, the solemn expressions with sharp eyes, and the tense and orderly rhythm all showed the tense atmosphere on the eve of the war.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, when all the troops had completed their stationing, the participating units held their first operational meeting, which was also the first meeting held by the front-line command. The purpose of the meeting was to convey the instructions and requirements of the higher authorities and study the combat plan, and all leaders at and above the battalion level participated.

At this level of meeting, the company commanders and instructors of each company were not qualified to participate at all, and could only wait for the battalion commander to finish the meeting and then convey it to them, and they could only wait patiently.

At this time, they also had an important task, which was to organize pre-war training. This is targeted training before a big war, and in particular, it is necessary to carry out targeted training in light of the characteristics of the opponent, the mode and style of combat, the characteristics of the terrain, and so on.

At this moment, Sun Zhenwu was leading the 2nd Company of the Advance Battalion to organize a latent training, and in the mountains behind the assembly area, in the waist-deep snow, all the officers and men of the 2nd Company of the Advance Battalion were hidden in it. Just now, the personnel of other detachments walked over, and they didn't notice that there were still people in this snowy field.

This is the first latent training, and Sun Zhenwu's training time is one hour, and he can't move after an hour of lurking in the snow. In the snow, the officers and men of the 2nd Company were all shivering with blue lips and red faces, but none of them dared to move. Because, the company commander and instructor are lying on their stomachs next to them, and they are training together like everyone else. In Sun Zhenwu's words, this kind of training is very necessary and targeted, because ambush warfare is the most commonly used and most practical combat method, and in order to win an ambush war, it is necessary to first be able to lurk. The most testing thing that lurks in winter is the cold, and only by improving the ability to resist the cold can we win the ambush war. Sun Zhenwu planned to increase the incubation time of the officers and men of the whole company from one hour to 10 hours through training for about half a month, and the longer the incubation time, the greater the chance of victory.

As a platoon commander, I was also lying in the snow at the moment, wearing a camouflage suit, which was covered with a layer of snow, and I dug a snow hole at the position of my head, and I dug two vents on the front side of the snow cave, so that when I lowered my head, I would not suffocate my head in the snow. Of course, this method was taught to everyone by the company commander Sun Zhenwu, and everyone was like me, digging a snow cave and setting up a ventilation opening. If everyone has their heads down, it will be almost impossible to spot everyone, no matter how far or near they stand.

Lying in the snow, it was indeed cold, as cold as bone-chilling. In less than ten minutes, our clothes were frozen. I only had one feeling, and I felt like I was lying in the snow with no clothes on, and I was cold.

In order to prevent frostbite, Company Commander Sun also taught us a method. Be as active as possible and increase calories. Not only is it not allowed to move, but it is also necessary to increase the calorie of activity, how to move? Sun Zhenwu told us that we should move places that we can't see, such as fingers and toes, and move quickly and constantly in gloves and shoes, which can effectively prevent fingers and toes from being frozen.

In this way, I moved my fingers and toes for an hour on end, and it worked, and by the end of the session, my fingers and toes were only slightly frostbitten, not frozen or blistered. After the training, everyone returned to the tent, and everyone immediately rubbed each other's ears, faces, hands and feet to speed up blood circulation and prevent frostbite.

These methods are not understood by those combat units, and only our native advance battalions know, and this kind of latent training has been persisted until we march to the combat area, and by that time we have been able to lurk for 10 hours without frostbite, and in the training, we have also summed up all kinds of anti-frostbite tips. No one would have imagined that it was such an intent operation that would determine the trend of the war.

When we returned to the tent after completing the training, the first combat meeting had not yet ended, and the company commander led us in training other contents, and the meeting did not end until 8 o'clock in the evening, and it lasted for five hours.
