Chapter Forty-Nine: Training by Battle
When the special combat team of the Liang Jiajun Escort Regiment was first established, there were only five people, and these five people were originally selected into the special combat team because they had their own specialties.
Lin Kun, not tall, even a little thin at first glance, but he is good at light body kung fu, flying eaves and walking walls, what is even more amazing is that he also has a dart stunt, 100 shots and 100 hits within 20 steps, this kind of person is simply tailor-made for the special combat team, Young Master Liang was the first to recruit him into the special combat team.
Qian Hu is different from Lin Kun, he is tall and strong, his hands are thick and jointed, and he has a family heirloom iron sand palm, and ordinary people can hardly resist the power of his palm.
Gao Shan, Gao Ruo is a brother, born in the mountains, good at climbing and tracking, designing various trap mechanisms, bows and crossbows and shotguns to make them proficient, after joining the escort group, the marksmanship training performance is also significantly higher than others.
There is also a person named Li Zishan, who looks ordinary, and is definitely a forgotten character in the crowd, this person has a trick in the rivers and lakes: makeup and disguise, and excellent language talent, can speak many dialects, even foreign devils speak foreign words, he can also speak foreign words, that is, he belongs to the genius who learns various languages very quickly. He still has a unique skill that has not yet been revealed: a skillful stealing skill. Because thieves are generally looked down upon on the rivers and lakes, he will not show this stunt easily.
People with so many stunts must be quick-witted, besides, how could he, a Jianghu person, join the Liang family's guards? In fact, he took the risk of stealing in the mansion of high-ranking officials in the city of Guangzhou, stealing a lot of gold and jewelry, too many things affected the retreat, and was found to be chased, although he was able to escape in the end, but his figure and appearance have been exposed, because this gentleman did the stealing, but did not wear the standard attire of the thief: masked night clothes, but made up as an ordinary family, it is really a daring artist!
Because he was afraid that the government would pursue and arrest him, he hid in the city of Guangzhou, and by chance met the Liang family recruiting the escort team, and learned that the escort team would be sent to other places for training. Later, the escort regiment set up a special combat team, and he was attracted by the mystery and superior treatment of the special combat team, so he signed up for the election.
The special combat team of the escort regiment is a special and mysterious formation, the treatment of the team members is above the platoon commander, and the level of the special operations captain is higher than that of the company commander, which is equivalent to the deputy battalion commander, so although Li Zishan is a Jianghu person, he is very moved by the unconventional reuse of Young Master Liang's background regardless of his background.
When the escort regiment first adjusted its officers, three company-level officers and two platoon-level officers were adjusted, and these five people were all appointed by the two masters of Master Liang, and their martial arts skills were good, but they were suddenly appointed as officers who needed to manage dozens or hundreds of subordinates, but they were not adaptable, after all, martial arts and management ability were not related.
Grand Master Liang personally talked to them, hoping that they could join the special combat team, firstly, they could strengthen the strength of the special combat team, and secondly, they could also be useful, and they could continue to enjoy the treatment of officers. It seems that the position of instructor concurrently held by Grand Master Liang is quite competent.
There is also a newcomer who has joined the special combat team, his name is Huang Bingkun, and he is a master of drug and poisoning, which makes Young Master Liang sigh that the land of China in this era is really full of talented people!
Now this 11-member special combat team has appeared in Vietnam in twos and threes, to be precise, in Hung Kai City, the provincial capital of Quang Ninh Province of Vietnam, which was later called Ha Long City. A province in Vietnam is small, smaller than a prefecture-level city in China. Therefore, at this time, Hongji City was not big, and the special combat team members were familiar with the streets and alleys of the city after a few circles, and of course they were assigned by the young master Liang to ambush here, so that the Liang family army could act as an internal response when attacking the city.
The plan agreed upon by Master Liang and his staff officers was to send a special combat team to Hongji City to lurk first, and then the prospecting team had a dispute with the local officials of Quang Ninh Province, and the dispute gradually expanded into a friction incident, causing some fake casualties, and the Liang Jiajun took the opportunity to retaliate and attack Hongji City.
With the current strength of the Liang Jiajun, it may suffer a loss against the well-trained European and American regular armies, but it is enough to deal with the grass platform team like Vietnam, not to mention that there is a special combat team as an internal response, and under the combination of the inside and the outside, it should not be difficult to capture a Hongji city.
After capturing the city of Hung Gi, they demanded compensation from the local officials for the alleged losses, and then made a request to occupy the coal mines, and if those officials agreed, it would be better, and if they shirked to report to the Nguyen dynasty for instructions, then let them send messengers to report to the royal city of Hue.
Regardless of whether the Nguyen dynasty agreed or not, the Liang family army first let the artillery fire a few shots at the royal city of Hue, threatening to urge them to agree, otherwise they would increase their firepower until they agreed. It is believed that the Nguyen dynasty will make a wise choice, because a coal mine far away in the north of Vietnam has no weight in their eyes, and it is not worth worrying about it.
In order to achieve the purpose of the operation, the staff officers of the Liang family army made a detailed and thorough battle plan, of course, this plan was completed under the guidance of the young master Liang, after all, they are all novices and have no formal training, but the young master Liang feels that actual combat is better than training, and he commands several more battles, as long as he is this material, he will definitely be able to become a qualified staff officer.
Young Master Liang took the opportunity to let his escort regiment conduct an actual combat exercise, just to practice with the weak chicken of the Vietnamese. Troops that have actually defeated training and have not gone through actual combat are not combat-effective, and soldiers who have never seen blood or killed people are not real soldiers. The army is a killing machine!
Liang Jiajun started the first actual combat training, and this killing machine is really working!
A large number of ships were sent from Guangzhou, and the 2nd Battalion was sent to land on the coast of Quang Ninh Province, the 1st Battalion and the heavy artillery company were taught, and the engineer battalion was sent to land near Hue.
At this time, the two British coal mine explorers who were finally found had just set off from Guangzhou.
Young Master Liang followed the 1st Battalion to land near Hue, although he had sent scouts to check the situation near the landing site in advance, he was still worried that there would be an accident, after all, the landing site was close to the capital of Vietnam, and the Vietnamese patrol and defense work must be relatively tight.
After the transport ships docked, the elite reconnaissance and guard units went ashore first, and after clearing out the landing ground, the engineering troops went ashore to find a suitable position to build protective fortifications, and then the infantry went up, and finally the artillery and equipment went ashore, and the troops were scattered and stationed, and three guard posts were set up outside to ensure that the landing troops could protect themselves if they were attacked.
The Liang army that set foot on foreign territory for the first time will inevitably be in a hurry, nervous, and local chaos will also occur from time to time, but fortunately, the officers have fulfilled their duties, and the Vietnamese army has not come to attack them at this time, and finally all the troops have come ashore safely in danger.
