Two hundred divisions are strong, which is recognized by everyone!

Although the 200 Division has only more than 9,000 members, it is equipped with Soviet T26 tanks, Italian CV33 tanks, German Hasu armored vehicles, American Ford four-cylinder trucks, and Harley-Davidson motorcycles. They are not only the first mechanized unit formed by China completely borrowing from German troops, but also the fourth armored division in the world.

What's more...... This is an iron army that has been tempered and grown in the flames of war, dares to fight, and writes the most beautiful chapters of the book again and again with blood, and even the Kou has to call them a strong enemy!

If it is really necessary to go on an expedition to Burma, ensure the vital artery of the Yunnan-Burma Highway, play the prestige of the Chinese people, and play the ambition of the descendants of China, the vanguard sent should of course be such a trump card force.

It is under this cognition that every day people rush to Anshun, Guizhou, a beautiful city famous for its Huangguoshu Waterfall, every day from the south and the north with their faces full of wind and dust, and under the guidance of passers-by and with the fanaticism of the pilgrims' faces, they rushed to the barracks where the 200th Division was stationed, and lined up at the recruiting office outside the barracks.

Surprisingly, the commander of this recruiting department in charge of recruiting recruits turned out to be a lieutenant colonel and deputy regimental commander.

But the most surprising thing is the recruitment standard of the 200 divisions. Don't be physically strong enough, don't be too young or too old, don't have a physical disability, don't be a college student...... Never before has a unit recruited new recruits before it is about to go to battle have so many restrictions listed. Under their harsh review, a few hours passed, and only seven people passed the preliminary review and wrote their names in the register.

This situation is really peculiar, in this kind of troubled times, there are troops everywhere recruiting new soldiers, as the so-called iron battalion and flowing soldiers, soldiers are the biggest consumables on the battlefield, someone has a gun will have the right to have money and territory, under the guidance of this kind of thinking, there will never be anyone who takes the initiative to be willing to be a soldier to push out.

Accustomed to the conscription style of those warlords, and in the face of such harsh and almost impersonal enlistment conditions, a young man wearing myopic glasses who looked like he was still a student in school, after being rejected by the captain company commander who was responsible for recruiting recruits with a polite but resolute attitude, he stared at the recruitment announcement written on the big red paper, and finally said something complaining: "What's wrong with the 200th Division, what's so awesome?" Isn't it just recruiting new recruits, and isn't it picking a son-in-law and using this to make it like this? I'm skinny, I'm short-sighted, aren't you mechanists, why do I have to run around on my two legs? Give me a gun and I can fight devils as well, and even if I bite with my teeth, I can bite off a piece of meat from them! ”

The words spoken by this student-like person undoubtedly represented the voices of the vast majority of people present, those who had been eliminated, but were unwilling, and still stood around the recruiting office and nodded vigorously. Sitting behind the desk, the lieutenant colonel deputy regiment commander in charge of the recruitment work, looked at the young man who looked thin and weak, estimated that he would not be able to run five kilometers, and the whole person might fall apart, and suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”

Huo Ran, the young man who thought that things had taken a turn for the better, turned his head, but unfortunately he did not get a special approval order for enlistment, but a question that was smashed in the face, "That's right, our 200th division is indeed a mechanized division, but our strictest training is still infantry combat, and our military training is ranked first in the country, and even the Yucheng Military Committee has sent commissioners to come to watch and study, do you know why?" ”

The big boy, who looked like a student, opened his mouth in the face of the question, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Seeing the speechless appearance of the student, the deputy commander of the lieutenant colonel lifted the corners of his mouth upward, raised a big smug smile, and finally his eyes fell on everyone present, raised his voice, and said: "Everyone knows that our 200th division is likely to be transferred to the Burma battlefield to snipe the enemy there. However, the establishment of our 200 divisions is so less than 10,000 people, and what we have to do now is to make up for the vacancy in the establishment, and if we recruit more, we will not have time to train, and we will not be able to guarantee weapons, so let you go to the battlefield empty-handed, which is to deceive you to death. This kind of lack of virtue of cutting off children and grandchildren, our 200 divisions will never do it! ”

These words are definitely not Sven, and they have a kind of ruffian spirit unique to soldiers, but the lieutenant colonel deputy regiment commander said it confidently, and with his tough appearance and the "country" face that represents the resoluteness of the surname, a convincing temperament naturally rose on his body.

"Commander Dai asked us to open a recruitment office, in addition to replenishing some new recruits, the bigger goal is to recruit useful professionals. As long as you have a skill that can make your brothers bleed less on the battlefield, I can represent all the brothers of the 200th Division, and at the same time raise your hands and feet to welcome. ”

The lieutenant colonel's deputy head stretched out his hand and pointed to the position behind his desk, and said loudly: "If anyone can answer this question and get my approval, there is no need to take another physical fitness assessment, and they can be admitted directly." If you can't answer, you can also have other specialties, in a word, we welcome those who have specialties, and we welcome those who are physically qualified and willing to be soldiers, if these two conditions are not met, although the conditions are limited, you can't be allowed to join the 200 division, but our 200 division also has to thank all the old and young masters present, you can afford our 200 division, and you come all the way to sign up for the army! ”

Listening to the words of the lieutenant colonel's deputy regimental commander, everyone in the audience vaguely understood in their hearts that if they could really answer this question well, not only would it not be a problem to join the 200th Division, but their future would be brighter. But in the face of such a problem involving professional knowledge in the military field, who wants to fly the wings of their imagination at will in front of so many people, but in the end it is very likely to end up with an axe?

Looking at the hundreds of people in front of him, the lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander in charge of recruiting couldn't help but have a trace of disappointment on his face. At this moment, a voice with a metallic texture pierced the silence around them, "Because, the chariot is dead, but the man is alive." ”

Lieutenant Colonel Deputy Regiment Commander Huo Ran raised his head, his gaze skipped over the dozens of people in the front row, and fell directly on a man standing in the crowd with his hands in his hands. Carefully looking at the man who stood tall and really stood out from the crowd, and carefully observed his expression, the corner of the lieutenant colonel's deputy regiment commander slowly raised a faint smile, but he shook his head vigorously, "Your answer is not wrong, but it is suspected of cheating, I can't count you as passing." ”

"The greatest advantage that mechanized armored forces can achieve on the battlefield is mainly concentrated in the two points of high-speed transportation of members and coordinated firepower. However, if you want to conquer and defend, and comb through the battlefield like a comb to completely annihilate the invading enemy, you must also rely on infantry. In mountainous terrain, swamps, cities, and other terrains, mechanized troops are limited and unable to play their due role, and in this case, mechanized troops must rely on infantry to continue to complete combat missions. ”

Hearing this, the lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander had already nodded again and again, this man didn't say much, but in a few words, he had already summarized the advantages and disadvantages of mechanized troops. And his insight obviously did not stop there, in the attentive listening of the lieutenant colonel's deputy regimental commander, he continued: "So I personally believe that in order to make up for the shortcomings of mechanized troops, the soldiers of the 200th Division must pay more attention to individual combat training, especially to focus on the two aspects of close combat and night combat where mechanized troops cannot normally exert their combat effectiveness. Whether it is a melee battle or a night battle, both the Chinese and the Chinese army lack submachine guns as a close-range suppression weapon, so it is likely that bayonet combat will break out, and the 200th Division will have almost harsh requirements for the body of recruits in the recruitment of soldiers! ”

The lieutenant colonel's eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up, stared at the man who was thirty or forty meters away from him, and shouted, "What's your name?" ”

"Thunder Quake!"

"Come here," the lieutenant colonel smacked the table and shouted, "sign your name in the register, you have been admitted!" ”

The lieutenant colonel's deputy head watched Lei Zhen walk in front of him step by step, and in just twenty seconds, several expressions of surprise, vigilance, and joy flashed on his face. Because with his vision, of course, it can be seen that Lei Zhen is not alone, and those who seem to follow Lei Zhen at random are his companions.

These people are tall and short in age, and among them, there is even a girl with a bit of rich daughter on her face, but their group, which does not seem to be harmonious, has the same rhythm and the same steps, although they will intersperse left and right when passing through the flow of people, but their whole body has always maintained a heart-to-heart distance from each other. Seemingly inadvertently, they use a rhythm of their own, faintly monitoring every corner where danger and attack may occur.

Without the monotonous but rigorous training on the training ground, they would never have had such a near-perfect unity and tacit understanding; Without experiencing the most brutal bloody battles on the battlefield, and without cultivating the kind of trust that is not brothers but has a closer trust than blood, their team would never be so invulnerable!

If it is said that relying on the way of recruiting soldiers to find talents is a kind of Jiang Taigong's fishing attempt, then he has used this stupidest method today to catch a group of big fish.

"They're all your companions?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Do you want to join the 200th Division?"

"Yes, sir!"

The lieutenant colonel's eyes slowly swept over everyone's faces, he inhaled quietly, and was silent for a long time before he suddenly said: "I already know Lei Zhen's ability, but he is the only one who has passed the assessment, if you want to join the 200th division with him, you have to show some real skills." Tell me, what are your strengths? ”

Faced with the inquiry of a lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander, several people who had followed Lei Zhen for so long and finally had a bit of a military style on their bodies raised their heads and quickly reported...... "Liar!" ”

"Blow up the stones!"

"Tightrope walking!"

"Dissection!"

"Play with guns!"

"Carry a backpack!"

"No handkerchiefs!"

"Uh-huh!"

…… Everyone's answer is strange, Jiangdong Sun Shangxiang's so-called "no handkerchief" specialty is even more wide-eyed, if this is special, it can barely be explained by her women's refusal to shave her eyebrows, the last sound is full of wild momentum, but it is a long howl that everyone takes turns to report...... The lieutenant colonel's deputy head lowered his head slightly in the direction of the source of the sound, and it was only at this time that he was surprised to find that all his attention was attracted by Lei Zhen, and he didn't even notice that at Lei Zhen's feet, there was a squatting eyebrow line with angry bones protruding, and his whole body was full of a fierce aura, but now he was wagging his tail at him stiffly...... Dog?!

God knows how this dog, who is amazingly tall and should have been full of fierceness, and who has to avoid three points when the wolf sees it, was taught. Feeling the gaze of the lieutenant colonel deputy regiment commander on him, he actually straightened his waist, supported his body with only two hind legs, maintained a standing posture, and then raised his right paw to the lieutenant colonel deputy regiment commander, and made a salute that really made people cry and laugh.

Maybe he stayed in the barracks for a long time, and the salute had been integrated into his life instinct, or because the recruitment work was originally an old lady's footsteps were smelly and long, and he was really dizzy by the sudden scene in front of him, the lieutenant colonel deputy regiment commander faced a dog's initiative to salute, and even raised his right hand in front of everyone, and before he reacted, he had returned a military salute to the other party seriously and standardly.

…… There was silence all around.

The lieutenant colonel's body froze suddenly, he stared at the dog in front of him, and his breathing suddenly became rapid. Feeling the unkind aura coming from the person in front of him, Lei Zhen's son also widened his eyes, and showed his sharp teeth like a demonstration.

…… Looking at the man and wolf who stared at each other fiercely like a fighting, everyone's bodies trembled as if they were cramping, and everyone blushed and covered their mouths with their hands. I don't know how long I lasted like this, and I don't know who started it, but suddenly the laughter was extremely happy, and an explosion sounded from the recruiting place in front of the barracks, and for a while it seemed that even the slogans on the barracks training ground were suppressed.

The lieutenant colonel, who returned the military salute to a dog in public, had a face in the shape of a national character and blackened by the sun, and everyone laughed black and red in an instant.

In this case, the lieutenant colonel, who had lost his authority, did not shake his hand and left, he gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at the culprit in front of him, and after a long time, he asked Lei Zhen: "You brought it?" ”

"Yes!"

"I see it's saluting me, okay, the position, angle, and movement are pretty standard!"

The lieutenant colonel's deputy regiment commander said that even Lei Zhen and Ghost Cai, the two think tanks, looked at each other, and only felt that the words were unfathomable, and the lieutenant colonel deputy regiment commander suddenly said to Lei Zhen: "You have joined the army, what do you want to do with this dog?" ”

"Report sir," lowered his head to look at the wolf lying quietly at his feet, Lei Zhen whispered, "It is my son, I have saved its life, it has also saved my life, the two of us have come a long way together, and we have never been separated, if we can...... I hope you will allow me to bring it.

"It seems that your father and son have a good relationship, if possible, I also hope to have such a dog who shows his teeth and claws to others, and is obedient to me."

The lieutenant colonel's deputy regiment commander said gently: "But please tell me, if you really let you bring a dog with you and waste precious food every day, what will the other people in the barracks think, and what will happen to the people outside?" Will they say, oh, the 200th Division has become a playground and a circus, otherwise why would soldiers still be able to bring their pets there during the three tours of Burma? ”

Seeing that the master was dumbfounded by the lieutenant colonel's deputy regiment commander, the ghost saw that the situation was not good and immediately drew his sword to help, "Sir, didn't you say that as long as you have a specialty, you can be admitted exceptionally?" The reason why we brought this dog to sign up for the army is that we know that it has enough specialties and can help us on the battlefield with less blood and sacrifice, so we have traveled thousands of miles and brought it here at a price several times the price. In some cases, it's more useful than ten soldiers combined! ”

These words of the ghost talent are definitely to his liking, squinting at the "dog" that no matter how tame the action is, no matter how harmless the expression is, it can only be described as a fierce appearance, the deputy head of the lieutenant colonel moved slightly in his heart, and said: "Say it and listen to it." ”

"Report to the sir, it can directly understand simple orders, and in hand-to-hand combat on the battlefield, even three or five well-trained professional soldiers may not be its opponent. If someone becomes a deserter or we want to arrest them, my son will be able to find them even if they run away more than a dozen miles by smell. When camping in the wild, it can also catch hares, fight bears, watch the door, and most importantly, it is not afraid of the dark, and the more it goes to night, the more energetic it becomes, it is very suitable for melee and night combat, and as long as it is defended, even if the enemy is invisible, he will not want to successfully launch a sneak attack......"

Speaking of which, Lei Zhen, who was afraid that his precious son would not pass the assessment, could only break up here for a while as a father and son, first glared at the Monkey King, and then said in an uncertain tone: "It seems that it will still walk a tightrope ......"

"That's it!"

Before Lei Zhen finished speaking, the lieutenant colonel's deputy head waved his hand, interrupting the report that made everyone's faces more and more weird, he glared at the dog that made him ugly in public, and tried to shout: "You, come here!" ”

Living with Lei Zhen for too long, he has already passed the surname, and there is another one more around them who is happy to train pets in the circus, and the monkey around them is dead again, leaving only a wolf to play with the monkey king, in short, with the order of the lieutenant colonel deputy commander, Lei Zhen, the son who can understand simple orders, really moved his legs, "walked" a few steps forward, and put his two front paws on the table together by the way.

Seeing the dog's two front paws on the table, the lieutenant colonel's deputy regiment commander resisted the urge to pull out the knife and cut it in two, grabbed the right paw that had saluted him, first pressed it into the mud box, and then slapped it on the register after the mud was touched.

With a "pop" sound, there was an extra plum-shaped paw print on the register. At this point, Lei Zhen's son has been drawn on the register and officially joined the 200th Division, becoming a soldier of the 200th Division of the National Revolutionary Army who is about to expedition to Burma...... No, it should be...... Army wolf.

"You brought it into the 200th Division, so you must be responsible for its actions, supervise it to integrate into the 200th Division as soon as possible, and have the temperament of a soldier like iron."

The lieutenant colonel's deputy regiment commander had a harmless smile on his face, and he even reached out and patted Lei Zhen's shoulder, and said gently: "Since you can let it salute me decently, I want it to learn to stand in a military posture, and it shouldn't be a problem to walk in line, right?" Give you three weeks to complete this task, and if you don't do it well, I'll punish you two for cleaning the toilets together! ”

Everyone present was dumbfounded, and it was only at this time that they finally understood why the lieutenant colonel's deputy head would set a precedent for letting a dog stamp his paw prints on the recruitment register, which clearly showed that Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong! Looking at the lieutenant colonel deputy head who finally regained face in public, everyone's eyes became a little flickering, and some people looked at Lei Zhen with more sympathy on their faces...... Offended such a seemingly arrogant, but in fact stingy and scheming boss, Lei Zhen's future in the 200th Division was destined to be dark.

After handing over the work at hand to a captain beside him, the lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander grabbed the registration book at hand, pointed to Lei Zhen and his party, and said, "You guys come with me." ”

It was under the leadership of the lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander that Lei Zhen and his party walked into the barracks of the 200th Division.

As soon as they walked into the barracks, the others were better, and Lei Zhen and Luo Sanpao, who were inextricably linked to the army, let out a heartfelt admiration in their hearts, the 200th Division really deserved to be the trump card of the ace of the [***] team.

Not to mention how well-equipped they are, and not to mention what kind of mechanized division they are in China, no matter what kind of weapons they use, they are an iron army that no strong enemy dares to insult!

As soon as you step into the barracks, a vigorous vitality mixed with the smell of metal comes to your face, and on the barracks of the barracks, you can see everywhere the chariots that the political axe spent a lot of money on and bought from abroad. These purest weapons of war, all covered in steel armor, and the heavy bodies with a little cold light, seem to be silently telling everyone the indomitable nature of the Chinese nation for more than 5,000 years of reproduction and prosperity. The barrels of their turrets are more like swords pointing diagonally at the sky, waiting for a fair trial against the invaders.

In one corner of the field, about a company of soldiers was practicing bayonet fighting. Unlike regular troops who train with bayonets, they do not kill targets made of straw, but pigs, sheep and cows, which are still alive, screaming with bayonets and spurting hot blood from their wounds.

For those recruits who have never been on the battlefield, let alone seen limbs flying, this kind of training is undoubtedly a double hone of spirit and **, watching the blood continue to splash, listening to the wailing of animals, watching themselves stabbed up, the stabbed internal organs mixed with blood continue to splash out of the wound, I don't know how many people just retreated, and couldn't help but squat on the ground and vomit.

But no one flinched, because at the slightest hesitation, their company commander would raise his foot and kick their ass as his eyes widened and shouted, "What are you hesitating about, what the fuck are you doing?!" Do you know that my recruits practice bayonets, what do they tie to tree stumps? They are using living Chinese, using our brothers and sisters! Pick up the gun in your hand, hold the gun in your hand and stab me! Poke! Poke! Poke it with all your milking might!! If you can't even do that, you can just buy a piece of fucking tofu and kill it, and don't go to the battlefield to be embarrassed!! ”

The leather boots kicked heavily on the human body, and the company commander's scolding was heard far away, and under the silent gaze of everyone, the recruit who was kicked to the ground and hugged in a ball, tears and snot on his face, suddenly let out a wounded beast-like howl, and in the blood splash, the bayonet in the hand of the recruit had sunk deep into the target's body.

Blazing blood suddenly splattered out and sprayed fiercely on the face of the recruit egg, but the recruit egg did not dare to close his eyes, because the company commander's roar exploded behind him, "Don't close your eyes!" If you close your eyes on the battlefield, you are putting your life in the hands of the king of Yama, even if the blood sprays into your eyes and burns your whole body, you have to desperately widen your eyes, and then pull out your bayonet and stab it at the second enemy with the same movement! ”

Looking at the recruit whose face was splashed with blood and whose body had been trembling, but who had never closed his eyes, holding the blood-stained rifle on his bayonet, walked to the corner of the training ground and suddenly squatted on the ground and vomited, Lei Zhen let out a soft sigh in his heart...... Congratulations, you have a good boss who can at least live a little longer on the battlefield under his teachings, and if you're lucky, maybe you can become a veteran who knows how to effectively protect yourself on the battlefield, just like your company commander!

"Da Da Da ......"

After firing all the bullets on the bullet chain at the target, the machine gunner and the ammunition man, despite the fact that the barrel was already hot, lifted the crane gun and ran away. After finding a new firing point, re-erecting the heavy machine gun and replacing the bullet chain, the sound of heavy machine gun fire was heard again from the shooting range.

A firing point was replaced every 60 seconds of strafing, and a series of tasks were completed in 30 seconds to fix the heavy machine gun and replace the bullet chain at the new firing point. Such a training program is definitely the most valuable lesson that has been learned with blood on the battlefield.

In actual combat, the number of equipment of the Chinese troops is absolutely limited, and the heavy machine guns, which should have become the mainstay, have not yet played their due role, they will be discovered by the army and blown up with mortars and grenadiers. That is, because of the lack of necessary heavy firepower suppression, the probability of hand-to-hand bayonet combat between the [***] team and the army is particularly high.

Only by using this method of firing for tens of seconds and then replacing a firing point can we effectively maintain the suppressive power of heavy machine gun fire. However, with a Makqin water-cooled heavy machine gun weighing dozens of kilograms, using the method of sports combat, this is indeed too demanding for heavy machine gunners and ammunition men, without long-term training and actual combat experience, they will never be able to do this on the battlefield in the face of mortar shells that the enemy will smash at any time.

As for the mud pits and barbed wire fences that can be seen everywhere on the training ground, these things are really too familiar to Lei Zhen, and it was these things that Ma Lan used to train him in a way that can only be described as inhumane. Looking at the soldiers who were soaked in the mud and lying on their backs under the barbed wire, holding their rifles in both hands, and pushing forward with the strength of their legs, Lei Zhen's face couldn't help but raise a faint smile.

In this kind of looking around, they followed the lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander along the path of the barracks and walked to a secluded corner, and their attention had been attracted by the scenes on the barracks training ground, and suddenly heard a "sizzle" sound, and under the surprised gaze of their group, the lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander actually tore off the page with paw prints on the registration book, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into a sewer on the side of the road.

"What are you staring at?" The lieutenant colonel's deputy head shrugged his shoulders and said, "Do you really think that I will stumble on you little guys behind my back because of this incident?" That's right, there must be such people, and there are quite a few, but some of our 200 divisions are all blood-surnamed men with similar hearts, and I, Huang Jingsheng, have a fucking hate in my life, and my heart is smaller than the eye of a needle, and I don't even like a girl! ”

"And you guy!"

Holding the register book with one page missing in his hand, Deputy Head Huang Jingsheng raised his leg to Lei Zhen's son and made a motion to kick him hard, "It's obviously a dog, isn't it good to learn to wag your tail and turn your heels, and drill the fire ring, why do you want to learn what kind of military salute you want to learn, so that everyone laughs in public." ”

Before Lei Zhen could stop it, Huang Jingsheng suddenly withdrew his right leg that was about to kick Lei Zhen's son, casually reached out and flicked off a few pieces of dust on his trouser leg, and said calmly: "As the saying goes, dogs that bite people don't bark, don't think that you will make everyone laugh with a military salute like a dog, and you won't be able to see your essence." Do you really think that the gentleman will be stupidly kicked and bitten by you with two rows of small bayonet-like teeth, and then pulled a few more times? Don't dream your big dreams, if dogs can dream too! ”

After saying these words, Deputy Head Huang Jingsheng laughed loudly, as if he had achieved the biggest victory in this round of human-dog confrontation.

Looking at Huang Jingsheng, who was so straightforward but never reckless, except for the wolf who was almost kicked and still looked vigilant, everyone present had a smile on their faces.

Lei Zhen They must admit that after such a short period of contact, they have already fallen in love with this deputy regiment commander who obviously has enough wisdom, but maintains a childlike approachability, and uses a "laissez-faire" attitude to write all the joys, sorrows, and sorrows on his face, such a soldier with a surname is really rare.

"Now is an extraordinary period, the troops will be transferred to Myanmar at any time to start a war with him, in order to prevent the annihilation of the army from entering the barracks, you must pass the security audit, so I hope you can write down your personal background as clearly as possible within the scope of your own acceptance, including your service experience in the army, to cooperate with the verification of the relevant departments."

After saying these words seriously, Huang Jingsheng looked left and right, and after making sure that they had not attracted the extra attention of others, he lowered his voice again and whispered to Lei Zhen: "You don't need to say that I also know that a considerable number of you, especially yourself, are veterans who have actual combat experience and have received more formal military education. Talents like you should have been directly recommended to the division, but you also have to be considerate of my brother and me, a lieutenant colonel and deputy regiment commander, and personally go to the recruiting office to listen to people's complaints. If you really have no problem, I think you can simply stay in our 598th Infantry Regiment, brother, I dare to pat my chest here and assure you that staying in the 5** Regiment will definitely not wronged you. ”

(To be continued)
