Veterans lead new recruits!

This is a fine tradition of all armies in the world, and of course, what kind of example the veteran has set determines what the new recruit will be like in the future - this is the common saying 'what kind of commander brings out what kind of soldier!'

The Eighth Route Army naturally attaches great importance to this aspect.

The 2nd Battalion of the Assault Regiment strictly carried out the orders and operational plans issued by the regimental headquarters.

At the beginning, the three people quietly entered the town, trying not to alarm the town's two devil patrols. However, with so many people surrounding Weijia Wharf together, it was impossible not to alarm the patrol.

The company commander rushed to the front, the veteran led the recruits, at this moment, whether it was a recruit or a veteran, everyone was very excited, and the troops were carried out in an orderly manner, so that you couldn't tell who was a recruit and who was a veteran.

Accompanied by a shout, followed by a gunfire and a scream, the battle for the second attack on Weijia Wharf began.

The gunfire on both sides rang out chaotically, and the difference between the recruits and the veterans was really immediate: as soon as the recruits heard the gunshots, they basically relied on their instinctive reactions, first looking for a shelter and then talking, and even, some of them fell directly to the ground, trembling, and some even screamed and ran around like headless flies. These are all okay, at least they will not hurt their comrades, and the most infuriating thing is that some recruits were frightened by the sound of gunfire for a while, and they actually closed their eyes and shot indiscriminately, which was fatal...... Not to mention those experienced grass-roots commanders, that is, veterans, basically they all shouted and immediately shouted and shot and rushed over - the enemy was only a patrol, seven or eight people, but there were hundreds of people on their side, relying on the strength of the crowd, they naturally had to take advantage of the great opportunity for the enemy to flee in a panic and rush to kill.

The company commander led the veterans to rush in front, while some grassroots commanders and a small number of veterans were busy grabbing the recruits around them and following the charge......

Although it was a bit panicked, because we had the advantage of being outnumbered, and the enemy was fleeing, victory was in sight, so the recruits recovered quickly. Even, when they recovered, they may be ashamed of the soft egg performance just now, or they are fighting with the wind, anyway, they are all excited to rush and kill, the speed is faster than many veterans, and it seems that they are even more brave than the veterans, and the degree of blood in their brains can be imagined.

However, this is only the beginning, relying on the large number of people, the progress is quite smooth.

However, because of the lessons learned from the last assault regiment's raid on the Weijia wharf, the devils and the second devils in the Weijia wharf have already established some necessary defensive measures, such as strengthening the fortifications and vigilance of the town office.

Therefore, when the gunshots rang out, the two devils in Weijia Town immediately subconsciously retreated to the town office, and the devils in the devil's warehouse fortress immediately prepared for defense...... To put it bluntly, this is destined to be the difficulty of raiding Weijia Town this time, and it will definitely not be as easy as the last time. However, more than half of the soldiers in the second battalion were novices, which made this battle even more difficult.

Whether it is a recruit or a veteran, when fighting a tailwind battle, there will not be much difference, but once they encounter the enemy's blockage, especially when the opponent's position is not taken down in the first place, the difference between the new soldier and the veteran is immediate: the veteran either looks for a shelter while fighting, or simply looks for a shelter first and then calmly aims and shoots, while those experienced grassroots commanders observe whether there are loopholes in the enemy's defense while fighting, and have determined where to attack next...... However, the first reaction of the recruits was embarrassing: they either ran around in fear, or hid behind shelters and shivered, or stood stupidly and couldn't move, or they shot indiscriminately...... In short, it is rare for a recruit to face a dense hail of bullets for the first time and be able to perform at the level of previous training. To put it mildly, it's a bit bold not to run away.

is so chaotic, but the little devil's marksmanship is generally better, which makes the little devil a live target - this attack on Weijia Wharf, the second battalion suffered such heavy casualties, of which 90% were recruits. Thanks to some veterans risking their lives to pull the recruits around him, he was able to escape.

A certain marshal once said, "New recruits and veterans, after a few battles, they are all veterans." These words sound full of helplessness, but they also reflect the cruelty and iron-blooded nature of war. At the same time, it can also be seen that the second battalion paid such heavy casualties within the acceptable range...... To put it bluntly, fortunately, the second battalion still has the advantage, if there is no battle, but on the premise that the strength of the two sides is equal, I am afraid that the casualty rate of the second battalion will be more than half. At the same time, the experience that the second battalion has gained with blood in this battle, it will definitely be much better next time it faces the little devils.

Some recruits, in particular, grow quickly on the battlefield...... In particular, the courage of some of the soldiers among the recruits is really awe-inspiring. When they saw their comrades-in-arms who got along day and night falling beside them, they instantly forgot the influence of bad factors such as fear, fear, and death, and no longer avoided them, but immediately became brave warriors and fought bravely to kill the enemy...... Of course, in terms of personal maturity, on the battlefield, it is not enough to be brave, but also to have experience: not only to protect yourself from injury, but also to ensure that you can kill more enemies. It's probably a kind of process: from being scared to being brave, to knowing when to fight and when to protect yourself and your comrades. This process can only be obtained through the test of war, rather than being learned and experienced in ordinary training.

No matter how well you train in peacetime, as long as you have not been baptized in war, you can only be a new soldier, and a veteran can only appear in the flames of war.

Don't look at the fact that the number of little devils is much smaller, but in modern warfare, the number of people can no longer be the most important factor in determining the outcome of a war...... These more than 100 little devils are definitely veterans, with accurate marksmanship, good weapons, and no lack of desperate spirit, and they are on the defensive side, so their resistance is extremely tenacious. Especially under the influence of the spirit of bushido, they are truly not afraid of death, even if some little devils are seriously injured, not only do they not want to be prisoners, but they also stubbornly resist to the end, which is vividly reflected in the capture of no little devils.

This time, we were able to pay 100 casualties to take the little devil's warehouse fortress, and we had to thank the artillery company for its timely participation in the battle and fire suppression, otherwise, the casualty rate of the second battalion would have to be doubled.

It is precisely because of the participation of the artillery company in the war that the little devil paid a certain price, not to mention, the most important thing is to hit the arrogance of the little devil...... The commander of the little devil is not stupid, as soon as he saw so many small steel cannon shells falling, he understood that they would not be able to hold this place today.

So, the commander of the little devil immediately ordered a retreat.

And the commander of the little devil is worthy of being an experienced person, who has long thought of a way out and is ready to retreat at any time.

And the little devils are also veterans, and they understand the difference between a hasty retreat and an orderly retreat.

Just when the second battalion gradually adapted to the battlefield and fought in an orderly manner, the little devils suddenly ceased fire, and then let the traitor translate and shout, and finally let hundreds of Chinese people who originally helped them work to take the lead, and they pressed the formation in the back, and even mixed in with the Chinese people.

In this way, not to mention the recruits, even Li Honghui is sitting on wax: I didn't know that there were so many Chinese people imprisoned in the warehouse fortress, so the artillery bombing was unscrupulous, and the so-called ignorant are not guilty. But now that I know, then I can't shoot, otherwise, I will hurt my own people, but it is a big crime to be committed by military law.

And the commander of the little devil is rich in experience, he didn't give Li Honghui time to react at all, and he didn't even have the necessary negotiations, and directly pressed the group of ordinary people to retreat to the dock.

In the end, the boats of the fishermen were forcibly requisitioned and they sailed away...... This is also the reason why the second battalion took the devil's warehouse fortress, but only killed dozens of little devils, instead of annihilating them all.

"By the way, regiment commander, when I came, the battalion commander specially asked me to ask you, what about those captured two devils?"

There were hundreds of casualties at once, not counting the battalion that was preparing to ambush the little devil's reinforcements at Screw Beach - there was no news from the first battalion so far. made Zhang Qingshan feel distressed, and his temper was naturally not very good.

Hearing this question, he only thought about it for two seconds, and then said to Zhou Baoyu in a deep voice: "Send someone to give an order to the second battalion commander, all captives who are not carved with a cross on their right shoulder will be given a chance, but they must have a cross carved on their shoulder as a mark......" Speaking of this, Zhang Qingshan's eyes sank, and he said coldly: "Anyone who has a cross on his right shoulder is a hardcore traitor, there is no need to be polite to them, they are all gathered, and after the parade at the Weijia Wharf, they will be publicly tried for treason, and then shot." ”

"Commander, is this ......?"

Zhou Baoyu is also a veteran, and he has learned a lot, so he can naturally guess that among these two devil captives, I am afraid that there will be many people who will 'enter the palace twice', if there is really one to kill one, the number of people is probably a bit large, and the impact may not be good, and it will leave people with the impression of killing. Therefore, when he heard this order, he was shocked and couldn't help but want to persuade.

But as soon as he spoke, he saw Zhang Qingshan turn his head and look at him coldly, which made his heart tremble and he couldn't help but shut up.

But then he thought that if he really did this, it would not be good for Zhang Qingshan, so he had to persuade him hard.

"Commander, do you want to think about it again, after all, among this batch of captives, I am afraid that many of them will be captured before, and they will all be killed, if it spreads, I am afraid it will be detrimental to your reputation. ”

When Zhang Qingshan heard this, he showed a wolf-like sneer......
