Chapter 158: Saving Your Life Matters

"Comrade Wang, I don't have an arbitrary style, if our views and opinions are different, it is better to call the three platoon commanders Sun Lei, Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju over, and the five of us will discuss what to do next, so it's okay."

Company commander Zhao Yifa felt that the instructor Wang Wenju's opinion of him was really not small, if he insisted on going his own way, it would inevitably hurt the harmony between the two people, after all, they were partners who had worked together for a long time, and after thinking about it, he came up with this solution to the differences between the two.

In this regard, the instructor Wang Wenju didn't think about it for too long, just thought about it for a few seconds, and replied very happily: "In my opinion, this is the only way to solve it at present, and see what the three of them think in their hearts."

After all, the three of them are platoon commanders, and they have been closest to the soldiers in the company along the way, and they all know what the grassroots fighters are thinking. Okay, call all three of them over, and let's discuss how to solve it together. ”

Therefore, the company commander Zhao Yifa called the herald who was sitting not far away and was on standby at any time, and instructed him to call the first platoon commander Sun Lei, the second platoon commander Liu Yiming, and the third platoon commander Feng Pengju over to urgently convene an impromptu meeting.

After the herald heard the instructions of the company commander Zhao Yifa, as soon as he heard that it was an urgent meeting, he did not dare to delay for a moment, and it took less than two minutes to call the three platoon commanders, Sun Lei, Liu Yiming, and Feng Pengju, to the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju.

At noon in the daytime today, before encountering the three US planes on the way to rest, Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju were still very disdainful of Sun Lei's attitude, but now the three of them are walking together talking and laughing, just like old comrades-in-arms who have been in revolutionary friendship for many years.

When Sun Lei followed Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju and sat in front of the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, he found that these two people usually sing and harmonize, but now they suddenly have an ugly face, as if there was a quarrel between the two just now.

Sure enough, Sun Lei just secretly made this bold guess in his heart, and the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju concisely explained each other's thoughts to Sun Lei and the three of them, and asked the three of them to express their own views, focusing on whether to support the company commander Zhao Yifa or support the instructor Wang Wenju, and the three of them needed to make a clear statement.

Just now, it was the instructor Wang Wenju who was in a dilemma, and now it has fallen into a dilemma between Sun Lei, Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju, and the three of them have become in a dilemma, and they don't know whether to support the company commander Zhao Yifa or the instructor Wang Wenju.

Anyway, in the eyes of Sun Lei, Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju, as long as they support one of them, then it will definitely mean that they will offend the other person, which is obviously a thankless statement, so after the three of them glanced at each other, they were all silent, and no one spoke about it.

After waiting for about a minute, the company commander Zhao Yifa saw that Sun Lei, Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju, who were sitting in front of him, were silent, and none of them spoke, so he couldn't wait to urge: "I and the instructor called the three of you over, just to hear your methods, why don't you speak."

"I gave each of you a minute to think just now, you must immediately express your position, this matter is very important, if the military plane is delayed because of the three of you, I will try to question you and severely punish the three of you."

Before the company commander Zhao Yifa didn't say this cruel thing, Sun Lei, Liu Yiming and Feng Pengju all kept silent, and when the company commander Zhao Yifa said that he would give them severe punishment, it really worked.

"Company commander, instructor, I think that there are still three and a half hours to go, and the battle in Xiajieyuli besieged by a large army of our volunteers is about to start. Although the enemy hiding in this military fortress will not immediately retreat south once the battle begins, we must dig improvised trenches in this place before they retreat south.

"If there are no simple trenches, we can only rely on the condescending geographical advantage to block the enemy, if we are under the enemy's artillery and aircraft volunteers, then we will not be able to block the three companies of sharp knives for a long time.

"Therefore, I agree with the company commander's proposal." Liu Yiming, who was afraid that he would be punished for not speaking and expressing his position, just waited for the company commander Zhao Yifa's voice to fall, and he hurriedly expressed his views eloquently.

As soon as Liu Yiming finished expressing his position, he was followed by Feng Pengju, who also expressed his agreement and said: "What the company commander and platoon commander Liu said just now is not unreasonable. If there are no trenches, then as long as the enemy chooses to retreat south during the day, with the fire support of the powerful aircraft and artillery of the American army, we will take the lives of everyone in the company, and I am afraid we will not be able to stop it for too long.

"The ancients had a cloud: one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion. Although the soldiers of our whole company had only rested once at noon on the march, the big guys were now exhausted. But compared to saving one's own life, being tired and suffering is nothing at all.

"Besides, as far as I know, many of our soldiers in the third platoon have already had less than a day left due to excessive physical exertion, and the fried noodles that originally carried three days' rations are now less than a day's left. Rather than keeping a day's rations and not enough to eat, it is better to eat all the rations for this day, work hard, and dig the trenches, that is, it is better to be hungry than to be dead. ”

Regarding the analysis of the third platoon commander Feng Pengju, the company commander Zhao Yifa and the second platoon commander Liu Yiming couldn't help but nod their heads, thinking that what he said really spoke to the hearts of the two of them, and it was such a simple truth that being hungry is better than losing one's life.

Instructor Wang Wenju, who had previously held opposing opinions, also began to loosen up a little, but he was still worried that the soldiers' bodies would not be able to support him, so he pinned his last hope on Sun Lei, the leader of the platoon who had not yet spoken across from him.

"Platoon Commander Sun, just now Platoon Commander Liu and Platoon Commander Feng both expressed their opinions, and both of them agreed with Company Commander Zhao's point of view. Now, I'd like to hear if you have any different opinions. Instructor Wang Wenju looked at Sun Lei, who was sitting opposite him, with expectant eyes, and asked step by step.
