Time flies quickly, more than a month has passed since the first battle of Foziling, and the calendar has turned to June 20, 28th year of the Republic of China (June 20, 1939).

During this period, Sun Yumin organized a funeral ceremony for the sacrificed brothers, and organized the formulation of the pension standard for the fallen soldiers, which can be regarded as solving the worries that everyone is very concerned about.

The training of recruits is also in full swing, but Sun Yumin is entangled by Xiao Chujiu, and there is no way to devote himself to assisting in training like Silly Bear.

These are all matters that are carried out normally on a daily basis, and what everyone is looking forward to is the veteran company competition that is scheduled to start tomorrow.

Dong Wenbin's third company itself is in Yangshupu, which can be regarded as the first month near the water, Sun Yumin led Liu Wenzhi, Silly Xiong, and Zhou Shanjun to arrange various assessment venues, all of which he took the soldiers of the third company to pass through first, which can be regarded as the "host" advantage. In the afternoon, Dai Cunxiang and Li Tianxi pulled the first and second companies down from the flat stone stone, and Lin Yuanping had no choice but to take all his guard platoon up the mountain. Although he also wanted to see the lively scene of the competition, Sun Yumin personally gave him an order that he could not disobey, so he had to take over the defense of Bian Danshi unhappily.

The content of the competition is drawn up by Sun Yumin, five contents: the first is a fully armed rapid march with a company as a unit, the distance from poplar trees to the flat stone, this distance is not far or far, it is not close or close, more than 20 miles or so, converted to later generations, it is more than 10 kilometers away, this distance is not too far compared to later generations, not to mention that during the Anti-Japanese War, a division of the Eighth Route Army once set an incredible record of nearly 200 kilometers of rapid march in a day and night; The second is the shooting competition, 100 meters away from the fixed target shooting, divided into three rounds, the first round of each company to select ten people, the firearms are three or eight big covers, the second round is still each company to select ten people, the firearms are used in the formal, the third round is to move the target to about 50 meters, all the backbone of each company, including the company commander and deputy company, to carry out the shell gun shooting competition, although the whole company is not allowed to participate, but it is not to say that each company chooses ten people to come out, but each round is by Sun Yumin and Liu Wenzhi, Deng Dongping from each company to temporarily draw, so that one comes, No one can fake, and if you draw the good or bad, you can only depend on luck and the usual level of training; The third is climbing tactics, the three parallel tactical fields are arranged by Sun Yumin himself, there is no barbed wire, he uses a rope instead, no barbs, he plans to make people paint red on the rope on the day of the competition, if someone touches the rope net in the process of climbing tactics and dyes the color, it will give him the time to complete the deduction, and this exam must be participated in by the whole company; The fourth bomb throwing competition, Sun Yumin did not just blindly ask, as long as he could throw it far away, this is one aspect, he also placed three baskets at a position of about 50 meters, and only those who threw them into the basket were regarded as the results of the company, and this test was also temporarily named by the three of them, and each company drew 20 people to compete; The fifth item is the simplest, and it is also what Sun Yumin values the most, the queue competition, he will never underestimate this simple queue, knowing that the soldier's quality, temperament, orders and prohibitions, style, etc., everything is based on this foundation, if his own troops can't even do these things well, how to talk about becoming an iron army that makes the Japanese frightened in the future.

In the afternoon, the poplar shop was very lively, not the three veteran companies were tinkering with anything, they all chose to rest with all their staff.

On the contrary, the recruits of more than 1,500 were excited, and in the days when they were forcibly trained, they always heard from the mouth of the squad platoon commander how the veteran company was awesome and how powerful the veterans were, and now they can see with their own eyes how capable they are, how not to make them excited.

How could such jubilation be missing the little girl and Chen Lai, who took Xiao Chujiu to this company to go shopping, and that company to take a look, and pestered Dai Cunxiang, Li Tianxi and Dong Wenbin from time to time, as if they wanted to find out some secrets, which made them complain.

The soldiers of the first, second, and third companies finally met at dinner, and just by gathering before the meal, it could be seen that none of the soldiers of the three companies were convinced, and everyone had in their eyes the desire to take the next company down.

In fact, you don't need to look at the soldiers, you can see the clues from the three company commanders Dai Cunxiang, Li Tianxi and Dong Wenbin, usually these three guys have a good relationship, but at this time they don't even sit together, and even the table of meals prepared by the cooking squad for a few of their chief officers is empty.

Sun Yumin took Liu Wenzhi, Deng Dongping and Silly Bear, Zhou Shanjun also came to the canteen rarely, this is the second time he came here, the first time was when this side was just built, at the invitation of Deng Dongping to eat here, that was already last year, although he also lived in Yangshupu, not far from these barracks behind the village, often came to the playground to see their training, but he rarely participated in the training and management of the troops, with Deng Dongping they were, Sun Yumin was happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

"Stand up!"

As soon as they entered the door, they were seen by Wu Linsheng, who was born as a scout, and with his loud command, the entire canteen stood up in unison.

Although the canteen was not very wide, it was long enough, and the three companies of nearly 500 people did not seem very crowded.

Seeing Sun Yumin's arrival, the three company commanders who were huddled with the soldiers hurriedly ran over.

"Let the soldiers continue to eat, I brought a few of them here, just to have a meal." Sun Yumin didn't put any chief's score, he walked directly to the empty table, and continued: "I know that you have added vegetables today, and I haven't eaten a pot of rice with the soldiers for a long time, and I am a little gluttonous, you won't be unwelcome, right?" ”

Sun Yumin's jokes made the stupid bear grin and said, "Boss, I said that you should come to the canteen every day to eat, how can the food cooked by the girl be as delicious as the cooking class." ”

Li Tianxi looked at Wu Linsheng and nodded slightly. This was to tell him to give the order for the warriors to sit down and continue eating, leaving them alone.

Wu Linsheng certainly understood what he meant, and a loud command came out of his mouth: "Sit down." When all the soldiers were seated, another clear command was given: "Continue to eat." ”

"Yo ho, braised pork, I was hungry for this yesterday."

While speaking, the chopsticks in Sun Yumin's hand had already picked up a piece of fat, oily braised pork and put it in his mouth. The tastes of the two women in the family are far from him, the little girl is not used to his mouth, and he is not allowed to eat in the army canteen, but he has not faded out of his mouth, when Xiaoshanzi was a guard, he can secretly get him something greasy from time to time, and now he has changed the ganglengzi, this guy is the echo of the two women, and completely forgot the identity of his guard, he used to serve Wang Youcai and Wang Yafang, and now he has become the "orderly" of the two women.

Sun Yumin stuffed a few pieces of fat into his mouth in a row, and found the surprise of others, especially even the stupid bear opened his mouth wide in surprise, and hurriedly explained: "Girls, they eat lightly, so they have to take this opportunity to make up for some oil and water." ”

"I said boss, tell me what you want to eat in the future, I'll bring it to you secretly, and I won't let the dead girl ......"

Silly Xiong said this with a loud voice, which made Sun Yumin a little embarrassed, but fortunately, Deng Dongping sandwiched a piece of meat in time and stuffed it into his mouth, blocking him from continuing.

"Are you really stupid or fake stupid?" Deng Dongping's words made Li Tie baffled.

"If you can." Liu Wenzhi also reprimanded softly.

Silly Bear didn't know what he was doing wrong at all, and his innocent look made the rest of the people at the table, including Sun Yumin, laugh, and finally broke the previous subtle atmosphere of the three company commanders.

"The seven of you are here now, and I have something to say to you, and I hope you will listen to it and keep it in your hearts."

"Boss, you say, we're all listening carefully!" Silly Bear did not restrain because of his appearance just now, as long as Sun Yumin said something, he would always be the first to echo and support.

"First of all, you must remember that the competition of the three companies tomorrow is not a very important thing, but there will be this competition, that is, I want to touch everyone's bottom. Whether it is the three company commanders of you or the five of us, do not consciously exaggerate this matter and increase the pressure and burden on the brothers below. ”

Sun Yumin put down the chopsticks in his hand, and after explaining the slander, he began to say the purpose of his coming today.

"Didn't you say that this competition will involve the distribution of weapons and equipment? Do you want to repent of what you said before? ”

The stupid bear was chewing the meat in his mouth, but he still didn't stop, and asked directly. This time, everyone didn't stop it, because this is a matter that everyone cares about, but no one dares to ask blatantly, just so that he can be the first bird.

"Tie Dan is right, our results in this competition will involve the adjustment of weapons and equipment, as well as the adjustment of some personnel and establishments. However, I hope that you will not put too much responsibility on the warriors, as I just said. ”

Sun Yumin gave a stupid bear a blank look, this dead guy, whether it is supporting the field or demolishing the stage, he will always be the first to bubble.

"That's not the same,, you say you'......"

"Iron gall, aren't you hungry, eat your food!"

Silly Xiong didn't see Sun Yumin glance at him at all, and he was about to make a big fuss, but was interrupted by Liu Wenzhi.

Dai Cunxiang and the three company commanders thought the same as Silly Bear, and the final results involved such great interests, how could they give up their desire to win.

"There is a saying that you must have heard, if the bow is full, it will be broken, if the wood is strong, if the wood is strong, and if the soldier is strong, it will be destroyed!" Sun Yumin said with some bitterness: "It's the same whether you are a person or a worker, leave some leeway, don't be too tight, blindly pursue the effect, in the end, you can't achieve your own goals, but it will be counterproductive, then it will be bad." ”

In fact, all of you here understand these truths, but it is so difficult to apply them to yourself.

If his troops are defeated in this competition, and not to mention that good weapons and equipment cannot fall into his hands, he will definitely not be able to raise his head in front of his brothers, and even the entire company will not be able to raise his head, how can this be endured for a bloody man!

"Also, I used to give you the wind, and I need to pick some soldiers for Zhou Shanjun in this competition. Therefore, the second purpose of my coming here today is to inform you that as long as the good army has a crush on them, you must be allowed to leave without conditions, and if the soldiers refuse to leave the company, you must also help with the ideological work. After Sun Yumin said these words, he looked at Zhou Shanjun who was staring intently, and said to him: "You have to pick carefully, I will let you take the bayonet squad." ”

Zhou Shanjun stood up suddenly, respectfully saluted, and said, "Never let down the boss's entrustment and expectations." ”

His sudden rise caught the stupid bear who was burying his head in hard work off guard, and almost fell down, but fortunately he stabilized and stubbornly stuck the horse.

"I heard that Cunxiang, you have a good young man over there, and now he is a communicator, right? His name is Yue Lei, isn't it? Sun Yumin suddenly asked a sentence, which made Dai Cunxiang startled, and his expression shrugged, he knew that there was nothing good, the boss knew that it was so clear, and he would definitely not be able to keep these trump cards in his hand.

"How? Not planning to support the Good Army? He also came out of your side, which can be regarded as your descendant, and now he is going to grow, don't you plan to support and support you, a brother? Sun Yumin didn't allow Dai Cunxiang too much time to think, and then said another sentence.

"Of course, of course, how could I not support the Good Army!"

Although Dai Cunxiang said it very happily, the look on his face was more ugly than crying.

"Okay, you let him follow the good army from today, and he won't have to participate in the competition tomorrow, so as not to hit other people's self-confidence."

As soon as Sun Yumin's words came out, Li Tianxi and Dong Wenbin were amused. Dai Cunxiang's subordinates, in addition to Zhou Shanjun, who has been with Sun Yumin, there is another soldier king, which is not a secret in their level, although he is not as perverted as Zhou Shanjun, but compared to the rest of the company, he can be regarded as standing out from the crowd. Although tomorrow's competition is a collective score, with this outlier in it, there will always be fewer chances of winning. Now this guy was disqualified by Sun Yumin with a word, how did this make them unhappy, you know, the strength of this thing is that you eliminate my growth, and the weakening of the other party is to put it bluntly, it is their own enhancement.

"Boss, do you want to give everyone a mobilization?"

Liu Wenzhi was a little unfair for Dai Cunxiang, and according to his thoughts, it was the most fair to count Zhou Shanjun and Yue Lei into a company.

"No need, they are all warriors of our Yangshupu Volunteer Regiment, and they will all step into the position of commander in the future, and I believe they will do their best to achieve good results tomorrow."

Although Sun Yumin's voice was not loud, the soldiers at the surrounding tables obviously heard it, and they all cast respectful glances and resolute expressions at him.

"Well, I wish the three of you companies good results tomorrow, and it will be the last time we will grow the majesty of our battalion!" Deng Dongping said in a timely manner, he knew that no matter what the result of tomorrow's competition was, the three companies would be broken up. With his understanding of Sun Yumin, not only will he be scattered by three companies into three battalions, but he will also be scattered among the backbone veterans. What is said that the competition is to choose a sharp knife company, but in fact it is not like that, this is just a big survey before Sun Yumin's distribution.
