Chapter 379: Kill at Any Time, Do You Believe It or Not?

"You! Superior Private! A young man in his early twenties, who was wearing a snow camouflage uniform and wearing a sergeant rank badge on his shoulder, was 1.75 meters tall and looked no more than in his early twenties, and said to a short man with a fur hat and a Type 56 assault rifle hanging obliquely, his eyes were blurred and he was yawning, "You are three minutes late, and the whole platoon has been waiting for you for three minutes, do you know what to blame?" ”

"What's the roar?" is also wearing a snow camouflage uniform, but the collar badge on his shoulder is only three white slashes, indicating that he is a high-class soldier The short soldier pouted and buckled his ears with his little finger, "The new little doll is just a small platoon leader, Lao Tzu brought thousands of soldiers back then, I don't know how many more than you, don't play music with Lao Tzu here, do you hear!" ”

"Yo he, a little senior soldier, his tone is quite big." The young platoon commander laughed, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, what's your name?" ”

"If you don't change your name, you can't change your surname." The soldier cocked his thumb and pointed at himself, "Grandpa Liang Chengfu is also!" ”

Indeed, this short private is indeed very famous, because he used to be a member of the Taiping Army, and he was a general under Chen Yucheng. (Historically, Liang Chengfu was once crowned king, but in this time and space, he did not become king, because before he became king, the Taiping army was wiped out by Li Yongji.) )

After the fall of the Taiping Army, he followed Chen Yucheng to accept Zhao'an, and because he was unwilling to be lonely, he joined Shi Dakai's expeditionary army and continued to serve as a soldier under Chen Yucheng.

After becoming an expeditionary force, he first went to Japan with the army, killed countless enemies in Japan, and made great martial arts, and was promoted to captain and became a deputy battalion commander.

Later, he went with the army to Hawaii and then to the Red Fort in Hollywood. Merging with the Dream Division, under the leadership of Li Yongji, he broke New Orleans, and also participated in the battle to encircle and annihilate the Grant Legion, and finally became a lieutenant battalion commander.

Originally, his future can be said to be very bright, after all, there are so many people under Chen Yucheng's command, he killed the most enemies and climbed the fastest, but the result was so good that he was stationed in Memphis. Stayed overnight at the home of a young white widow.

Although the situation is your love and my willingness, to put it bluntly, it is that the white woman coveted Liang Chengfu's Huayuan and materials, took the initiative to hook up, and voluntarily sold herself, everyone is actually a business relationship, and Liang Chengfu is at most a kind of prostitution.

But the problem is that the white woman is not a prostitute after all, she has her parents-in-law and neighbors. At this time, white Americans were not as open as later generations, and many concepts were still quite conservative, especially since the white woman's home was still a Catholic family!

Then the matter was big, and the person who stayed at the house of the white woman who stayed with Liang Chengfu for money found out. They began to collectively go to the expeditionary force station to make trouble, not one or two, but a large number of people to make trouble, asking the Chinese to give an explanation.

Look at the bigger and bigger things get. directly alarmed Li Yongji, so he immediately took countermeasures.

Li Yongji did things simply at that time, and immediately sent troops to arrest all the parties involved. On the one hand, they sent people to spread propaganda around the city, saying that this was a conspiracy of the Northern Union Army, a rumor deliberately spread by the Northern Army, with the intention of sowing discord and causing chaos.

In short, because of the cooperation of the coalition forces, the fact that the Chinese troops drove around the city, the loudspeaker propaganda, and the deterrence of heavily armed soldiers, and the martial law of the whole city in the name of searching for enemy agents, the flames of the military-civilian conflict were finally extinguished in time.

Since then, considering security, the main force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force simply withdrew from the city center of Memphis, and most of the troops camped outside the city, in Memphis City, only controlled a few main streets and some important commanding heights, and strictly forbade Chinese soldiers to go to the streets in Memphis at will, to prevent the local people from contacting the Chinese, and to communicate with the local people, all through their allies, that is, the Union Army.

Not to mention, after doing this, the officers and soldiers of the Chinese Expeditionary Force have put an end to contacts with the locals, the security has been greatly improved, and some bad things have basically been prevented, even if there is any mess, it will be counted on the head of the Southern Alliance Army, after all, their main force is stationed in the city, and they have the most contact with the local people.

It was also after this incident that when Li Yongji led troops to attack in the future, he would no longer lightly lead troops into the city, because only in this way could the small number of Chinese maintain a higher safety factor.

However, although the expeditionary force changed its garrison strategy because of this incident, greatly improving the garrison conditions and safety factor, Liang Chengfu, the initiator of this incident, received a severe punishment for this.

Originally, if Li Yongji didn't know about this matter, it would be okay, and he could still fool the past, but Li Yongji knew about this matter, so whether it was Chen Yucheng or Shi Dakai, he couldn't turn a blind eye, and he didn't even dare to open his mouth to plead.

However, Li Yongji himself, after hearing about Liang Chengfu's background, knew that the other party was more or less a person who had left a name in history, so he was punished a little lightly, and did not ask for his life, but only signaled to the military justice department to give him a lenient sentence.

As a result, the military court of the Judge Advocate General's Office did not convict Liang Chengfu of adultery with a woman, but replaced the crime of dereliction of duty with a crime of dereliction of duty on the grounds that the evidence was insufficient, and the reason for the incident (the hapless white woman had already been characterized as an enemy agent) was replaced with a charge of dereliction of duty.

This sentence is quite light, you know, if it is rape of a woman, it is a serious crime to shoot and kill the head, and if it is dereliction of duty, the crime is much lighter.

As for why it was dereliction of duty, it was also simple, because according to the "investigation", the white woman was a spy of the Northern Army, and she deliberately approached Liang Chengfu to obtain military intelligence, and Liang Chengfu did not maintain enough vigilance and fell into the trap of the other party, causing heavy losses to the image of the army, so it was a crime of dereliction of duty.

In short, things are so determined, whether it is for the Chinese themselves or for the outside, Li Yongji maintains a tone. That is, the white widow and her family members were all agents of the Northern Army, and the purpose was to discredit the Chinese Expeditionary Force.

And because Li Yongji had a nose and eyes, he even fabricated a lot of so-called "physical evidence", that is, the "letters" from the Northern Army to the white woman's family, but in the end, except for a very small number of people, even most of his own people believed it.

For example, Liang Chengfu himself, he even thought that he really fell for the beauty trick and touched the dark for the army. Therefore, he was ashamed, and almost committed suicide, thanks to the persuasion of others, saying that instead of committing suicide, it is serious to kill more white devils.

Not to mention, this rhetoric is quite useful to Liang Chengfu, he hates the Northern Army to the bone after that, and every time he fights against the United States, he is fierce and abnormal, and he is simply deadly. That's why people give the nickname Liang Maniac.

However, it is a pity that after the defeat of Memphis, the Chinese Expeditionary Force did not fight outside for a long time, but Liang Chengfu could not be depressed.

Later, Li Yongji engaged in a frog jumping tactic. wanted to bypass Cairo and fight Smithland, but because the federal army in Cairo retreated on its own without fighting, Cairo did not fight it with much effort. This also led to Li Yongji's so-called jumping frog tactics becoming a joke, and then Liang Chengfu still had no chance to beat the Americans out of anger.

Later, I finally ran into a hard bone in Smithland. But Liang Chengfu's company was actually assigned to a frontal feint unit, and did not participate in the main attack force interspersed behind, which also led to the fierce battle, but Liang Chengfu's company had no results at all, and Liang Chengfu had nothing else to gain except for taking some credit for participating in the battle.

Just when Liang Chengfu began to accept his fate, suddenly, his company was assigned a reconnaissance mission, and his team happened to encounter a cavalry battalion of the US army during the patrol.

That's right, that cavalry battalion is the cavalry reconnaissance battalion of the New Virginia Regiment in Burnside, and after seeing this cavalry unit, Liang Chengfu was enthusiastic, stood up directly from the back of the car, grabbed the vehicle-mounted machine gun first, and began to shoot fiercely at the other party.

As he shot, he also screamed, just like when he was in the Taiping Army, and his action also encouraged his companions around him, and they all quickly burst into flames, and began to shoot fiercely at each other with various weapons, completely ignoring that the other party was far outnumbered by himself.

Everyone knows the situation later, after the US cavalry battalion was hit, it quickly collapsed and retreated, and it was Liang Chengfu who took the lead in shouting and pursuing, as if he was the squad leader.

But at that time, no one cared if he was a private or a squad leader, anyway, everyone was driving in pursuit, and shooting indiscriminately with rapid-fire weapons.

Normally, firing at a bumpy vehicle is basically a no-brainer, but the pursuing Chinese army uses rapid-fire weapons and plays strafing, so the situation is different.

In addition, the speed of the vehicle is much higher than that of the horse, and the target of the horse is also large, so if you chase close enough, more than a dozen rapid-fire weapons can strafe together, and the power is still quite good.

In short, just because of that encounter, Liang Chengfu became famous and earned a lot of military merit, and as a result, Li Yongji, who knew about this matter, made a special case and directly promoted him from a private to a senior soldier, which is the pinnacle of soldiers, and he is a non-commissioned officer if he is rising.

However, although Liang Chengfu is second-famous, he still goes his own way in the army, and his training never comes on point, which is quite lazy.

His former boss didn't want to offend him because of his fame and knowing that he had something to do with him, so he usually let him go, as long as he didn't delay his business.

"Liang Chengfu?" The platoon commander frowned slightly, then nodded, "Oh, I remember, it turns out that you are the famous thorn head Liang Chengfu." I heard that you once served in the Taiping Army, almost crowned the king, and later received recruitment, and also made a lot of meritorious achievements, as a company commander, but later because of the violation of military discipline, the result was from the company commander to the private, and finally became famous in the first battle, became a combat hero, and was promoted to a senior soldier...... Hehe, it's also a character, no wonder it's so arrogant. ”

"Humph!" Liang Chengfu pursed his lips again, expressing disdain to answer.

"However, since I was a company commander in the army." The young platoon commander's eyes narrowed, "Then you should be familiar with the military discipline of our army, right?" Well, for the sake of you being a combat hero, I won't talk about petty crimes such as being late, but you can't ignore the consequences of these two crimes by contempting superiors and disobeying orders, right? Well, what would you do if I charged you with these two charges and sent them to the Judge Advocate General's Office? ”

"You dare!" As soon as he heard the other party say this, Liang Chengfu was immediately startled, and looked at the other party with wide eyes, "What do you want to do?" I, I have no grievances with you...... You, you're going to harm me? ”

I can't help Liang Chengfu so surprised and scared, because although Liang Chengfu is now demoted to a soldier, after all, he has been a company commander and is still relatively familiar with the military law of the imperial army.

The military law of the Chinese Imperial Army is divided into simple and complex.

Generally speaking, the simplified law is born from the three major disciplines and eight points of attention, which is also the most important military law, and the punishment is the greatest.

Complicated laws are some detailed rules that were added later, mainly some behavioral norms and the like, but the punishment of these small laws is much smaller.

Contempt for superiors and disobedience to orders are both crimes in the law, and they are felonies, once they are convicted, they will be imprisoned as coolies at best, and they will be killed on the spot!

Of course, this on-the-spot killing refers to wartime discipline on the battlefield, and this cannot be done in non-war times, but this new platoon commander is his boss, and even if he is not shot on the spot, he can be sent to the Judge Advocate General's Office, and then go to the Judge Advocate General's Office to appeal and let the military court try him according to law.

Generally speaking, if there is a dispute between a superior and a subordinate in the military, and the superior appeals to the Judge Advocate General's Office, then the Judge Advocate General's Office usually goes to the superior.

This is because in the Imperial Army, I don't like to play anything fair and just, but I like to pay attention to dignity and order, so the relationship between superiors and subordinates is quite clear and strict, and generally speaking, subordinates are not allowed to disobey their superiors, even if you are dissatisfied with your superiors, you must go through normal procedures, and you can't disobey your boss privately before the investigation is over, so whether you are reasonable or unreasonable, it will not work.

Although this kind of strict hierarchical system of orderly upper and lower levels may lead to injustice and oppression, the Chinese at this time are quite adapted to this atmosphere, and the unity ability of officers and men has not deviated from this, and the combat effectiveness of the troops has not decreased but increased, which can be regarded as a new normal for the troops.

"What, now you know you're scared?" The young platoon commander sneered, then roared, "Listen! You're a big mallet! I'm the boss here, and I'm up to me! It doesn't matter what you used to be, whether you are a thorn or not, as long as you are still a soldier under me and still on an errand under me, then you must listen to me, if you are not obedient, you will be killed at any time Believe it or not?
