Section III

Zhang Lingfu stayed in the courtyard where the third company was located for about half an hour, and in the subsequent conversation, Shi Shi kept holding the leather box handed to him by Staff Officer Zhang, the box was not big, and it was not too heavy, but in Shi Shi's heart, this was one of his most precious things, and the other one was the short dagger that Xu Qiang, who had already died, exchanged two cigarettes from Tietou's hand, which was a sharp weapon that accompanied him through bloody battles, and it was easy not to show it. And in this half an hour, Shi has a great understanding of Staff Officer Zhang's current situation, no, it should no longer be called Staff Officer Zhang, and it is most appropriate to call Zhang Regiment Commander at present.

Today's Zhang Lingfu is no longer the colonel of the division, the Shaanxi Security Regiment, which was personally trained by him some time ago, has now been officially incorporated into their 51st Division, renamed the 305th Regiment, and Staff Officer Zhang Zhang has become the commander of this regiment as previously rumored, for such a situation, Shi is very happy in his heart, which has nothing to do with the fact that he received the books presented by Staff Officer Zhang, just because during the bloody battle of Luodian a month ago, he followed the back of Commander Zhang and charged, and it was from the command of Commander Zhang, He learned the drastic means of counter-charge, and knew the belief that the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road.

Seeing that the head of the regiment, who was surrounded by everyone and showed a heroic and extraordinary look all over his body, was as calm as a mountain and was about to rush to the front line of the Xiaoliu River with a group of people and horses, the eyes of Shi and the others were full of extreme envy.

"Stone, why don't you tell Captain Zhang, if only you could bring us along!" Chen Daaxe looked at the distant backgrounds and sighed regretfully and said, this guy may really have something wrong, and at this time, he thought of the idea of running to the 305 group.

The pillar suddenly snorted coldly and said, "Get out of here, our temple is small, and we can't fit your big Bodhisattva." ”

"Platoon commander, I didn't mean that, I mean, let's all go over and fight devils together with Commander Zhang!" As soon as Chen Daaxe heard the sneering tone of the pillar, he suddenly felt that what he said seemed to be misunderstood, and he hurriedly explained.

Shi shook his head when he heard the sound and said, "Let's just order people like this, don't go and make trouble for Commander Zhang, besides, doing so will make Camp Commander Zheng and Regiment Commander Cheng embarrassed." ”

When Lao Meng heard the stone speak, he also nodded and said, "What the stone said is right, big axe, can you think of a donkey brain?" We are from the 302nd regiment, and we ran to fight with other regiments without the order of the regiment commander and battalion commander? What is this? Let's go back and dismantle the company. ”

"That is, this thing must not be done, in my opinion, I can't even say it, and when it reaches the ears of the chiefs, this is going to be a big thing." Liu Wenfeng analyzed seriously on the side.

Chen Daaxe was startled when he saw that everyone was against the article, and he shrank into the corner of the wall and didn't say a word, only holding his eyes to look at the stone from time to time, as if waiting for him to suddenly change his mind. But what made Chen Daaxe desperate was that Shi Shi didn't have this idea at all, he slowly sat back on his recliner and slowly opened the suitcase he was holding tightly. Everyone around was also curious, wanting to see what was inside, what could be sent so solemnly by Head Zhang, it must not be an ordinary thing!

But when the box was opened, everyone on the side was basically dumbfounded, only to see a book threaded with thin threads stacked on top of each other, and a long string of black letters lying quietly on the cover, you don't know it, it doesn't know you.

Most of the people in the three companies don't know how to read, these years the soldiers are in a panic, they don't even have to eat, except for the rich people, few people can know the words, occasionally a few, also died in the bloody battle, the strange thing is that the stone is very familiar with these words, at a glance to understand what is written on it, but he didn't say anything, just very surprised, is he really with the old man said, born in the landlord's family? Then he shook his head again to dispel these messy thoughts, concentrated on the book in front of him, and looked carefully at the cover again, he did know the words on it, but he thought silently, has he read this book before?

"Chemical Weapons Textbook" looked at this book with a yellow cover and rough paper, and someone finally spoke up, and when they looked back, everyone was stunned to find that it was the only seedling in the second row, the young rifleman Yu Longting.

Lao Meng on the side grabbed Yu Longting as if he had found a treasure at this time, and asked in surprise: "Long Ting, do you know these words?" ”

Facing Lao Meng, who had taken a lot of care of him during this time, Yu Longting nodded, and then said with a gloomy expression: "My father is Mr. Private, and I just learned a few words along with it." ”

Seeing Yu Longting's appearance, Lao Meng didn't know why, he said that good men are not soldiers, good iron is not nails, like them, who carry guns to the battlefield, who does not have a sad past......

Shi held the book in a daze, but it seemed that he did not hear their conversation, and after a long time, he turned the page, only to see that inside was the table of contents of the book, on which some small characters were recorded, Yu Longting also read it, saying that the book was divided into four chapters, namely poison gas, smoke, arson, signal and lighting.

Hearing his words, there was a lot of discussion all around, Li Wenguang also knew a few words, but there were not many of them, at this time he looked at it, but he grabbed his head and said: "Where did the head of the regiment get this book, how can you write all these things?" Arson? Isn't that just arson? Who wouldn't set fire to this, wipe a match and find the firewood pile. ”

As soon as Li Wenguang's words came out, everyone immediately rolled their eyes, and Xiao Shandong said even more uncomfortably: "Monkey, according to what you say, I will also be able to light a kerosene lamp!" ”

"What a mess!" Lao Meng scolded, waved his hand and said, "I don't know how to read, what are you doing around?" Let the company commander take a good look alone, don't interrupt, Commander Zhang said, the company commander may be able to remember the past from these words, this is not a small matter of fun. ”

As soon as they said this, everyone nodded, and one by one they dispersed very obediently, and went to enjoy the daylight again, leaving only Shi and Yu Longting there, all paying attention to the small words on the book.

The stone didn't look up, but he knew the existence of Yu Longting as if he had eyes on his back, and after turning out another book from below, he said: "You also know words, so let's take a look together, if we can really learn skills, we can go to the battlefield in the future, and we can have a little more hope of coming back alive, these are all life-saving things." ”

As he spoke, Shi's gaze fell on the word arson, and when he looked at it, he thought of the scene when he launched a night attack on the slope north of Luodian that day, and the thick pillar of fire that suddenly rose into the air in vain suddenly wrapped Brother Pao Ze who rushed in front of him, and before he could react at all, it cut off their retreat, was this a way to set fire?

Yu Longting watched the company commander flip through the book and fell into contemplation, and also gratefully took a book handed over by him and sat down on the side, in this kind of moment when there is no war, it is really a very rare thing to be able to hold a book to read.

The stone slowly flipped the book, lines of words into his mind, a kind of poisonous gas in his mind, color, smell, killing effect, all made him have a sense of immersion, the most surprising thing to him was that when he saw those simple defensive means, I don't know how, he had a very familiar feeling, but really want him to say why, but it seems to be confused, this feeling is not the first time to appear, a month ago, Zhang Lingfu told him about the infantry formation, He had that reaction too.

Have you really learned these things before? Stone thought in horror, there was an urge to pry his head open.

After a cursory look at the book, Shi closed his eyes and thought about it, but the knowledge introduced in the book came to mind very clearly, what each chapter and section said, the identification of various poison gases and some easy ways to deal with them; several means of creating smoke, taking advantage of the situation to break through the formation and confusing the enemy, and the timing of the attack; The materials needed for arson, the requirements for the direction of the wind and the effect to be achieved, etc., all echoed in his mind one by one, and they were very clear.

Stone this is the first time to read a book, for his own situation, there is no question and consideration at all, just think that everyone is like this, so, he carelessly, and picked up a book, this is a slightly thicker book than just now, the book is called "Zeng Hu Zhibing Quotations", look at the name, you can guess, this should be some famous generals' method of leading troops, compared with the previous "Chemical Weapons Textbook", it belongs to a different category, this is a book that leads the army to govern the army and fights the overall situation, The previous one is some special techniques in some specific environments and under specific conditions......

Turning the pages of the book, Shi saw some introductions to the book, and he knew that Zeng Hu on the title of the book was not the name of a general, but the surnames of two people, one was called Zeng Guofan, and the other was called Hu Linyi, who these two people were, Shi didn't know, turned around and asked Yu Longting, who was looking at "Heavy Machine Gun Shooting Guidance", also shook his head and said that he was not very quiet, only knowing that Zeng Guofan seemed to be a big official of the Qing Dynasty, and he seemed to have suppressed some uprising.

Gradually, the system of materials, employment, honesty, courage, strictness, public awareness, benevolence, diligence, harmony, military aircraft, war defense, and governance reflects the content of the military thought of Hu Linyi of Zeng Guofan, and all the minds of the stone are attracted to it.
