Chapter 95: Choice
At this time, Qiu Qingquan was 35 years old, and Liao Yaoxiang was 31 years old. Qiu Qingquan graduated from the Army University in Berlin, Germany, and Liao Yaoxiang graduated from the Saint-Cyr Military Academy in France. If we take the Kuomintang generals in 1937 as an example, both of them are soldiers with academic qualifications and considerable ability, and they are also a little enthusiastic.
As later generations commented on Liao Yaoxiang, "...... The only hobby is training, and whenever the army is stationed, he personally leads the company, platoon, and squad leader to engage in actual combat exercises and demonstrate in person, and he never gets tired of it. And Qiu Qingquan, in the future, may not happen in the present or he will not participate in the "Kunlun Pass" battlefield, and then get the name of Qiu Maniac.
"Jian Chu, I think it's time for us to choose!"
Qiu Qingquan is four years older than Liao Yaoxiang, and he has the smell of an old brother when he speaks. Liao Yaoxiang just nodded to Qiu Qingquan, he was used to thinking more and talking less, and at this time he frowned slightly and was thinking about something.
"What are you thinking, it's time to decide our fate."
Qiu Qingquan, who was anxious, urged Liao Yaoxiang while he smoked the cigarette butt vigorously in his mouth. The faint light lit up his jaw down. Seeing that Liao Yaoxiang glanced at him, he was anxious and urged. As soon as he couldn't hear his answer, he would never agree.
"Please, brother, don't talk like this again, okay!"
Liao Yaoxiang raised his head that was lowered because of deep thought, looked at Qiu Qingquan in front of him, but did not answer his inquiry, but asked rhetorically.
"Brother Qingquan, what about you!"
Liao Yaoxiang does not like to call each other by his own name like other Chinese, but he is often used to calling each other by their first name. This is probably a habit that I have developed after staying in France for a long time. Or rather, it is a reflection and change on the politeness of China, which always likes to be superficial. Qiu Qingquan is four years older than him, so of course it is not good to call him by his name directly. Therefore, the title of "Brother Qingquan" does not lose its true character.
"Me? What else do I have to say, I think I ......."
When he said this, Qiu Qingquan, who originally thought that he had an iron heart, suddenly stopped talking. Then he smoked a cigarette again, and his heart, which seemed to be already "iron", became melancholy again. I took a puff of cigarette for a long time, as if I wanted to use this puff to make up my mind.
After a long while, he let out a long puff of smoke that had faded, and then stared at Liao Yaoxiang, showing some embarrassment on his face.
"I, I just can't put it at home. You know ......."
He paused when he said "you know". It seemed to be trying to criticize something, but then he changed his mind again.
"To be honest, I want to stay. Although I have yet to see the ability of King Kim to command large-scale battles, I believe that he is a man who is sincere in resisting Japan. Although his origin is too mysterious, have you ever seen his tactics, even if it is the training we have experienced, I'm sure it is not the skill of any country. In addition, I have heard that he is very close to the Germans, and if he really has the help of the Germans in the future, as he said, he may not be able to succeed! ”
"Done?"
Liao Yaoxiang, who heard Qiu Qingquan say this, glanced at him, and looked at his appearance, and his head seemed to shake secretly, and he didn't agree with Qiu Qingquan's idea. However, he still spoke, and he solved his problem for Qiu Qingquan.
"I don't think it's a big problem at home, but when it's the time of the horse leather shroud, I can't take care of them. And if you're worried about any changes, you just need to use a pseudonym to serve in the Chiyou Army. I only have one question, Brother Qingquan, you and I are both high-ranking officers, are you here to command 15 people in this area? ”
Faced with Liao Yaoxiang's questions, Qiu Qingquan was open-minded.
"15 people? My brother Yu'an, who of these 15 people are stronger than our previous subordinates? ”
Liao Yaoxiang shrugged his shoulders and flattened his mouth quite Frenchly, and he didn't answer Qiu Qingquan, and he asked again.
"And what do you say?"
"I said? I dare say my squad against any country. The companies of the army are able to fight and win. Although there are only two machine guns, they are not suitable for dealing with the tactical rigidity of the country. The army company, sneak attacks, snipers, and traps can beat them so that they don't even dare to go out of the trenches. As long as it was one night, the company command post was held, and the other soldiers ......"
Speaking of the other soldiers, Qiu Qingquan shook his head.
Liao Yaoxiang knew very well what kind of combat capability his subordinates, a 15-member squad of the Chiyou Army's desperate brigade, had. The reason why a squad is so large is because it includes two machine guns, a sniper team, and a grenadier team.
The grenadier group was a new addition, and it included two soldiers. Use a grenade launcher that we said, based on the MGL-140 grenade launcher, and modified from the Type 8.9 grenadier canister in Japan. It had a revolver-type magazine with 6 grenades, and a grenadier group carried 50 grenades for two people. In addition to this, the Chiyou infantry will also be equipped with rocket-propelled grenades with bombtraps in the future.
For the time being, in the end, this weapon was only a prototype, and it was not officially manufactured because of the problem of raw materials.
But to put it this way, an infantry squad has a crooked handle -- the Taisho 11 machine gun, and the other is a Czech machine gun. 9 Type 38 (2 sniper rifles), plus a grenade launcher, and 15 revolvers. With such firepower, not to mention in contemporary China, even in the infantry squad of the whole world, it is an infantry squad with strong firepower.
In addition, I believe that you all understand that future tactics and rigorous training in the future are important factors in bringing out the best in combat. Another important factor is that the people of the Chiyou Army's Desperate Brigade were more fierce than the Japanese soldiers at this time. Because most of these guys are here for revenge. Although they will not lose their tactical rationality because of revenge after training, their ruthlessness is far greater than that of the unambitious Kuomintang soldiers, and the same is far superior to the Japanese soldiers who can only attack suicidally and lack tactical rationality.
"As far as King Jin Dayan is concerned, I dare to say that if I put my people in the national army, they will all be good platoon commanders!"
For his subordinates, Qiu Qingquan is absolutely proud. Others don't know their identities, but a good military education makes the team led by him and Liao Yaoxiang the two best squads in the Chiyou Army's Desperate Brigade. What makes Qiu Qingquan proud is that his team often defeats the team led by Liao Yaoxiang in training and combat.
What Qiu Qingquan didn't expect was that Liao Yaoxiang asked rhetorically again in the face of his pride.
"Yes, are those bastards worthy of platoon commanders when they enter the national army? Brother Qingquan, I think you know this matter better than me! ”
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――" Let's watch the first release of the literature network, please support genuine reading, support the author's creation of "Don't laugh and give birth to A group: 35761481; Email: [email protected].
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――― facing Liao Yaoxiang's rhetorical question, Qiu Qingquan nodded in agreement.
He understood that what Liao Yaoxiang said was not a problem of the combat skills of these "bastard soldiers" under him. It's the Chinese army, except for the Chiyou army, I'm afraid that all the Chinese armies at this time have extremely complicated interpersonal relationships.
Of course, this so-called "interpersonal relationship" is not really "interpersonal relationship". Rather, it is a "gang-up" style, which will form a "mountain" interpersonal relationship in the military, or a "vulgarized and profit-oriented" interpersonal relationship.
Speaking of Qiu Qingquan and Liao Yaoxiang, officers who graduated from foreign military academies, they hate these things the most. It's a pity that in China it seems that they have to follow the "custom" that pervades all corners of China, otherwise they will not be able to exist anyway, so they have to "go along with it".
Compromises do not mean that they are satisfied with that kind of atmosphere, and the Chiyou army in which they exist at this moment does not exist at all in such a dirty so-called "interpersonal relationship" based on "forming gangs and factions". In this regard, it is clearly written in the "Code of the Dead" that those who dare to show favoritism because of "Chinese-style interpersonal relationships" will definitely be shot. Moreover, supplemented by the supervision of the military police, and the promotion path based on fairness, justice, and openness based on data, all fundamentally put an end to the influence of "Chinese-style interpersonal relations" with ignorant characteristics on the military.
And this just contributed to the initiative and efforts of the soldiers in training and combat. made Qiu Qingquan and Liao Yaoxiang feel respectively the attitude of determining status by virtue of ability in the German and French military academies. Although "interpersonal relationships" also exist in those militaries, the impact of "interpersonal relationships" on military management is much less than that of the Chinese military.
Qiu Qingquan took another heavy puff of the cigarette, then threw the cigarette butt on the ground and smashed it with one foot.
"Forget it, forget it, I won't ask you, you're just a stuffy gourd, asking you to make people go wrong."
After saying that, Qiu Qingquan turned around and left, Liao Yaoxiang looked at his back, which was running towards the headquarters of the Chiyou Army where Jin Tao was. Liao Yaoxiang immediately showed a smile with the truth of "as expected", and then he himself stood up and ran after Qiu Qingquan's back.
"Hey, Brother Qingquan, why are you always in such a hurry. Looks like you're going to stay here, I'm talking about it! ”
Qiu Qingquan did not answer, nor did he deny it. Liao Yaoxiang smiled with satisfaction, and then said his psychological words while walking with him.
"I think this King Jin Da Yama is going to build a new army, I just doubt that he will be able to establish a new China!"
Liao Yaoxiang didn't say anything, but Qiu Qingquan, who was attracted by it, stared at him and was stunned!
