After praising Sun Lei's unsparing words, company commander Zhao Yifa immediately turned his head, smiled at the instructor Wang Wenju standing next to him, and proposed: "Comrade Wang, you see, Platoon Commander Sun has just counted all the items, and I propose, next, should we distribute and distribute food and goods to the comrades of the whole company?"

"After all, the comrades have been starving for two days, and it is estimated that the big guys are starving, so send them down as soon as possible, so that the comrades can fill their stomachs. I'm not afraid of your jokes, Comrade Wang, I'm hungry right now. ”

Regarding the proposal of the company commander Zhao Yifa, instructor Wang Wenju thought for a moment before saying noncommittally: "Lao Zhao, we have really got a lot of food and items now, and we must divide it, and I agree with both hands." ”

After talking about this, instructor Wang Wenju suddenly paused, then changed the conversation and continued: "However, Comrade Zhao, I think that we can't divide everything at once. In the unlikely event that some comrades soon eat all the things they have been assigned to them, then we will probably have to sit and eat empty.

"In my opinion, let's send a part of it first, based on a day's rations. Wait until the next day, and then we'll continue to distribute it. If we do this, we can also have a control over these hard-won food and items, so that they will not be exhausted all at once. ”

When the soldiers of the Third Company of the Sharp Knife Company, who were surrounding the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, heard the company commander Zhao Yifa say that they would quickly distribute these delicious and well-drunk, well-worn things to them, they immediately blossomed one by one, and suddenly there was a feeling of a long drought and a rainy day.

However, the good times did not last long, and their joy lasted less than a minute, when they suddenly heard the instructor say that it was not possible to distribute them all at once, but to distribute them slowly according to the amount of the day, and suddenly the joy on their cheeks disappeared completely, and was replaced by an expression of disappointment.

After listening to instructor Wang Wenju express his opinion, company commander Zhao Yifa thought carefully for a long time, and he also felt that instructor Wang Wenju's opinion was not unreasonable, and he couldn't think of any other way for a while, so he nodded and agreed.

In the opinion of the company commander Zhao Yifa at this time, the regimental headquarters did not give them an accurate time to come for a long time, and the only thing they could do now was to do everything possible to hold on to the end.

After tasting the pain and difficulties brought about by the shortage of rations, the company commander Zhao Yifa was also much more cautious in his style, and he was also afraid in his heart that the soldiers of the three companies of the sharp knife company would be hot-headed, so he would send all these good things to them at one time, and within a day or two of effort, they would all be eaten cleanly, and the problem of ration shortage would continue to emerge.

Thinking of this, the company commander Zhao Yifa nodded, but asked with some confusion: "Comrade Wang, I agree with your opinion just now, but how to define the amount of this day has now become a problem, you see, how much food is suitable for us to send to the soldiers on the first day?" ”

When the company commander Zhao Yifa raised this question, Wang Wenju, the instructor standing on the side, immediately threw this to Sun Lei, who was standing in front of the two of them, and said in a relaxed tone: "Comrade Zhao, this problem is very easy to handle. Since the list of food items was listed by Platoon Commander Sun, and this matter has always been in charge of him, it is better to hand over the task of food assigned to the comrades in the company to Platoon Commander Sun to do. ”

Company commander Zhao Yifa, who was still worried about this matter just now, immediately made his eyes light up after hearing that instructor Wang Wenju shirked the responsibility to Sun Lei, nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and his frowning brows also relaxed.

"Okay, Wang, this proposal of yours is simply too good. Let Platoon Commander Sun assign this kid, I know that this guy's university is not in vain, and he can speak the bird language of American devils, and he can also speak Korean, and he has a great ability, so I will hand it over to Platoon Commander Sun to deal with this matter, and I am a hundred in favor. Company Commander Zhao Yifa looked at instructor Wang Wenju for a while, and looked at Sun Lei, the platoon commander for a while, and happily agreed.

Since he had received the approval of the company commander Zhao Yifa, instructor Wang Wenju followed closely behind, and instructed Sun Lei, who was standing in front of them, in a somewhat urging tone: "Comrade Sun Lei, Sun Da platoon commander, what are you still doing in a daze, I didn't see the company commander have spoken, let you distribute a day's rations to all the comrades in our company, hurry up and tell me and the company commander that you have decided to distribute food, let's strive to send these delicious and delicious food to the soldiers within an hour, my stomach is the same as a big guy." I'm also very hungry. ”

What Sun Lei never expected was that just now, he thought that after he finished the list of items and food, there would be no more things for him, but now it is good, and the instructor Wang Wenju gave him another job.

Although, in Sun Lei's heart, he didn't want to do this job, but the problem was that the comrades of the whole company were waiting for these foods to fill their stomachs, plus he was a platoon commander, which was also his duty, and in desperation, he had no choice but to accept this errand.

Sun Lei, who was standing in place, thought for a few minutes, and then made an overall distribution for a week, that is, seven days, according to the things listed on the list of items, and then determined how much each day's amount would be distributed to the soldiers of the third company of the Sharp Knife Company.

Because in Sun Lei's opinion at this time, even if the regiment headquarters did not tell them the specific time to come over, as far as he knew, the soldiers of the volunteer army advancing to the south basically prepared seven days' rations before setting off.

And now that two days have passed since receiving the telegram from the regiment headquarters, Sun Lei believes that after seven days at the latest, according to the original plan of the previous operation, the large army of volunteers besieging Xiajieyuli will definitely rush over.

Thinking of this, Sun Lei proposed his own plan for food distribution to company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, "Company commander, instructor, I personally think that if it is calculated according to a day's rations, each soldier in our company can get one-third of canned beef, one-half of a bag of bread, and a bag of compressed biscuits. As for the coffee powder used to drink, it can be brewed with boiling hot water, which can have the effect of refreshing and keeping warm, especially for comrades who are responsible for vigilance at night.

"There are also dehydrated vegetables and flour, as well as condiments, which can be boiled in the morning, noon and evening. As for the fifty bottles of whiskey, when this battle is won, it is better to drink it as a celebratory drink. Cashmere blankets, scarves, leather covers and cotton socks can be given to each soldier to protect against the cold, and the rest will be used as the combat readiness materials of our whole company, which will be used in case of emergency in the future. ”
