Chapter 2, The Recruits
The Japanese troops who rushed up at the risk of death were repulsed again and again, but they rushed up again and again, and one brigade was quickly disabled, and the result was that there was nothing to achieve except for consuming a lot of ammunition from the other side.
"Stop the attack." Tsukada ordered that since he couldn't defeat it, he would go, and if he continued like this, one of his divisions might not be able to leave much loss to the other side after fighting, so it was better to abandon that position, build a new one, and block their footsteps.
The Japanese stopped the offensive and began to build positions in place, and the airborne divisions also strengthened their positions on the original positions of the Japanese troops.
"How's the war going in the north?" Lu Qiang asked the monkey next to him.
"It's been stabilized, but the logistics can't be broken, and if there are more planes, you have to run twice a day." The monkey said.
"That's it for now, if you can't stop it, just continue." Lu Qiang said indifferently, "However, if you tell them that if you want a steady stream of supplies, just get me a big fish, preferably a division commander or something." ”
"This ...... It's a little too big, right? The monkey said incredulously.
"What's the big deal, you just tell him, whether you do it or not, that's his business, if you want something, you can exchange it for your head." Lu Qiang said.
"Okay then." The monkey answered. He didn't suspect anything about Lu Qiang's words, and he didn't feel that anything was wrong, but he felt that the goal Lu Qiang said was too big, and he was afraid that the lynx wouldn't be able to complete it, but even if the lynx couldn't complete it, the boss wouldn't cut off his support.
Lu Qiang fought the idea of a war point, and only by fighting small soldiers could not make up for this vacancy, and if he continued like this, he would go bankrupt because he could not make ends meet, so he hit the senior officers of the Japanese army, only those senior generals, all of whom were worth hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands. It would be best if he could kill a division commander, so Lu Qiang set such a high goal for him from the beginning, as for what to do, then let the monkey figure it out for himself.
In the Northeast, the monkey who was staring at the map intently in the tent got the task given to him by Lu Qiang, and scolded at that time, ", isn't this a pit for me?" Is the division commander so easy to kill? For Lu Qiang to cheat him like this, he was also drunk.
"What, is there any order from the base?" Li Yao, the commander of the Mountain Division, was very puzzled when he saw the monkey's expression as if he had eaten feces. Li Yao is also a member of Lu Qiang who has been walking together since he was old and entering Dabie Mountain, and he can still believe it, among those people in the same period, he ranks among the top few, but Lu Qiang doesn't care, after all, he mainly looks at monkeys and a lot of staff officers, he also shows his face, and it can be regarded as a head for the mountain division, and he is also a mountain person, and he is very familiar with the mountain.
"See for yourself." The monkey handed him the telegram, still with an unhappy expression.
Li Yao took the telegram and looked at it carefully word by word, after reading it, he was also puzzled by Lu Qiang's task, after all, a division commander is not so easy to kill, not to mention that they are protected by heavy troops, and the commander of the Japanese division alone can't figure out where the specific location is, so they don't know where to start.
"It's going to take your time, it's a matter of luck." Li Yao said.
"yes, that's going to give me a problem." The monkey exhaled and added another point to Lu Qiang's resentment.
Although it depends on luck, you must also work hard to find it, otherwise even if you have this luck, you will miss it.
There are three ways to search, drones in the sky patrol around, stallion fighters search in depth and vertically, specifically looking for targets over the town, and snipers, mainly targeting high-ranking Japanese soldiers on the front, these are all slow and not in a hurry. Moreover, the outbreak of the 41st Army these days has shown an amazing transportation capacity, and the transportation of a lot of supplies is enough for them to spend a while and fight a few battles.
In October, the Soviet-Finnish war broke out. In the previous Polish campaign, in order to seize the northwest region of the Curzon Line, Mao Xiong also boldly claimed sovereignty over the Karelia region and constantly provoked border conflicts, which led to a sharp deterioration in relations between the two sides and led to war.
Anyway, the situation in Europe is getting worse and worse, and all countries smell the smell of war and are preparing for war.
October is still a bit hot in the south, and the recruits have finished their training and formed into an army. The armored division has a higher cultural foundation for the soldiers, so those who have a foundation are selected to the armored division, and the armor is formed first, and the rest are all organized into two other mixed divisions to continue to start training in tactical physical fitness and weapon operation.
In the three reorganized divisions, several layers of officers were drawn from other divisions, and the highest was also the battalion commander. There are also a lot of people who have been drawn out, and this one has to be replenished by selecting people from the recruits. Lu Qiang has not yet formed a reserve.
"Hook into a rich!"
"Here!"
"Zhao Guangwu!"
"Here!"
"Li Angui!" ……
Lian Sanshu was a platoon leader for the first time and led the team. He was originally just an infantry member in the 250th Division, and one day he was named and transferred to the newly formed 255th Division, as a platoon commander, under the command of three infantry squads, one fire support squad, a total of 48 people. Now he has just taken over the team and has begun to roll call.
After confirming that everyone had arrived in Qidu, they began to teach guns, and each infantry had an 81 bar, and the machine gunners carried the 81 squad. Then take them to the dormitory, a class of dormitories, the squad leader does not choose first, and after a period of time they are familiar with their own choice, now they are all mixed, each other is still very strange, on the wall of the dormitory wall on the wall of the training schedule, and the new barracks is to compare, the training subjects have increased a few items, the training requirements are more stringent, get up earlier, sleep later, and this is just the beginning.
The next day, these hopeful recruits started their morning run, fully armed for 10 kilometers of cross-country, 20 kilometers back and forth, and immediately made these people tired like dogs, yelling that they couldn't stand it, but no one dared to say that they were not soldiers. The punishment is nothing, if you can't endure the hardships during the recruit period, you can leave. But to accept the confidentiality review, this is very difficult, and once you can't pass, you will be arrested as a spy, this is only one of them, the second is that the food here is a good mess, but they can't believe it, even some landlords don't eat so richly, they are full of big fish and meat, fruit and milk. How could they, who can't eat meat for a while, be willing to leave? Then this little bit of suffering is nothing, and farming at home is not much better, and more importantly, whether you can eat enough is a problem.
After 20 kilometers of running, these recruits were almost exhausted and collapsed, and then looked at the runner who was running with them, but they were only sweating profusely, and there was still a spiritual squad leader, one by one, who was shocked and asked what the secret was.
"Well, it's okay to run every day." Lian Sanshu scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed, haha.
"We don't believe it, the squad leader is hiding his secrets." Some of the self-acquaintances immediately shouted.
"What I'm saying is true, this 20-kilometer armed cross-country is a must, now at the beginning, you probably can't bear it, and after a long time, you can do it naturally, and I also ran over like this." Lian Sanshu said.
"Running every day? What's the use of running like this? "Although the recruits also ran in the morning, they just ran a few laps around the playground, which was as intense as it is now.
"You're just, why don't you use training. What are you doing here, do you want to run back and forth again? Lian Sanshu said with a bull's eye glare.
It seemed that he was frightened by Lian Sanshu, and this person fell silent, bowing his head and muttering something quietly, but even Sanshu didn't hear it.
After being trained by Lian Sanshu, they were a little weird, and after eating the breakfast that was very hearty for them, they began a morning of training.
Recruit training is also stepping or something, mainly basic training, relatively simple, but after the company battalion, intensive training began, all kinds of but still based on basic training, to let these are deeply rooted in their bones, in the slowly all replaced by intensive training.
After a month of adaptation training, they stood upright, could stand for two hours without sore or numb legs, and walked in unison. According to their training status, the platoon commander shortened some of the time for stepping and standing upright, and joined other training, as for what to train, the platoon commander arranged it himself, and each platoon commander had a training form, but it was necessary to let all the 48 people he waved down master the content written on the list within a fixed period of time, and meet the specified requirements. If he fails to meet the required requirements, he, the platoon commander, will be punished, and the platoon will be disrupted and reorganized.
"Three divisions have been compiled, here is the list." The monkey handed over a thick stack of papers, he felt that he was about to become Lu Qiang's secretary, and he did everything.
"Just put it on the table." Lu Qiang said, such a thick stack of lists, he wants to look at them one by one, he has to see when, besides, it seems that the front and the back will be forgotten immediately, these will be put into the space later, in his space, there are several stacks of such lists, put them in the space for insurance, to prevent anyone from doing bad things or losing this. "By the way, you go and pass down the order, recruit 20,000 people, build a reserve division, and be responsible for replenishing troops to other divisions, otherwise it will always be new people with little training to replenish, and the loss will be too great, and it is better to keep this reserve division at about 20,000 people, and recruit troops to make up for the lack immediately."
"Okay, I'll do it."
"Wait, I heard that the bald head is restless, let the army attack the Fourth Army?" Lu Qiang stopped the monkey who was turning around and wanted to leave.
"That's right." The monkey nodded, a little puzzled in his heart, didn't he tell the boss about this a long time ago?
"I see." Lu Qiang lowered his head, bald and afraid of the strength of the Fourth Army, and suddenly killed him, which caught Lu Qiang a little off guard, the incident that originally broke out in October next year was a full year ahead of schedule, "I don't know if the next one will be me?" Lu Qiang looked at the back of the monkey and laughed in a low voice, "If he really dares to stretch out his paws, I don't mind giving him a ride." ”
