Chapter 20: How to Prove on the Battlefield that the Enemy You Killed Was Killed by Yourself

Xia Yuan nodded: "He's right, his head was really stupid before, and then he was hit in the head with the butt of a gun, and suddenly it became good." ”

"Then you are even more profitable, you have been stupid for so many years, your head is good, and you are better than us."

Xu Yu was even more envious in his heart.

He also thought that Xia Yuan used to practice martial arts, but he didn't expect his head to be stupid.

It took more than a month of training in the boot camp to practice to this extent, which is really amazing.

Xia Yuan smiled: "This kind of thing still depends on talent, people with good talent learn everything quickly, some people are born sharpshooters, and they can reach a level that many veterans can't achieve just by touching the gun." ”

Xu Yu agreed: "I agree with this, there was a sharpshooter in our company before, and he was very accurate in shooting, and there was no shooting training when he was a recruit, but in the first battle, he killed more than a dozen bandits by himself." ”

Old man Wang seems to have a kind of confidence in his marksmanship, or he has no general concept of war, and said: "If you shoot a gun, you will die if you hit it, and if you kill a dozen people in a battle, you will be a sharpshooter?" Is it that simple? ”

"You think the problem is too simple, the war is not as easy as you say." Xu Yu said: "Many times, the enemy will not show his body, they are all hiding in the ditch, rising, the ground in front of them is uneven, it is not so simple to hit the other party, killing ten people is already very powerful." ”

Xia Yuan knew that Xu Yu was talking about a storm-type battle, even if it was not a storm-type battle, it would not be so easy to kill a dozen people.

When it came to the Korean battlefield, it was relatively simple, and the US army's attack did not have any rules, and even the tactics were not as good as the Japanese army's, which was completely to use heavy artillery to strike and cover the position until it felt that it was almost over, and then ordered the troops to attack the position of the volunteers.

The tactics of the Volunteer Army are often to respond to the enemy's attack with small units, and the attacking enemies are basically above the company level, battalion level are very common, and regiment level is very rare, and it only appeared when the US Tenth Army encircled and suppressed the 180th Division.

Old man Wang has no concept of war, he thinks of war very ideally, in addition to killing many people, it is to beat people with guns, I am afraid that it is not necessary to hit one by one.

Xu Yu continued: "When you arrive at the battlefield, there are bullets flying everywhere, maybe you just showed your head, and a bullet pierced your head, and many people went to the battlefield for the first time, and they were so scared that they peed their pants." ”

Old man Wang waved his hand: "Don't tell me this, squad leader, I think you are right about one thing, our recruits have to shoot training, and they can see who is the sharpshooter, so when they get to the battlefield, they all shrink their heads, and who knows how many people they have killed, and they can't go back, in order to verify, do you have to give him some bullets, let him shoot a few shots and try it." ”

"Old man Wang, why didn't I find out that you were talking and picking up thorns before."

Xu Yu snorted, and couldn't help but stare at Old Man Wang's eyes.

"Squad leader, I don't call this a thorn, this is called telling the truth, you think, if there is a war, how do you know if these people were killed by him or another soldier, if he is the only one left, he said that these people were shot by him, and how can he say that these people were not killed by him."

Old man Wang still has a lot of questions, but he still asks the point.

Xu Yu opened his mouth for a long time, and he couldn't understand it.

"Look, squad leader, you don't know how to explain it yourself, if I go to the battlefield and kill an enemy, I will say that I killed two and killed two enemies, I will say that I killed four, and then there will be more enemies killed, who knows which enemy you killed again, or I killed it."

Old man Wang is so unreasonable.

But what he said still makes sense.

Xia Yuan was lying on a pile of hay, listening to the chat between the two, and inexplicably felt very interesting, he didn't know about the situation inside the national army. In ancient times, soldiers relied on the enemy's head and ears, and if they wanted to receive merit after killing the enemy, they would cut off the enemy's head or ears.

But in the modern battlefield, this way does not work.

Xia Yuan has experienced a lot of Korean battlefield wars, and he still has a certain understanding of the number of enemies destroyed by the volunteer soldiers. The first is through one's own oral statement, the oral statement of comrades-in-arms, and the testimony of comrades-in-arms to confirm.

Killing an enemy on the battlefield means that you say that you killed him, or that you killed him, and you need to have witnesses, and at the same time, the corpses on the battlefield must be examined. The merit evaluation method is the recommendation system, and the merit of the soldier is reported by the squad leader in turn, and after reporting to the headquarters, it is counted step by step, including auditing, including the confirmation of comrades-in-arms, and the number of corpses on the battlefield.

But the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, it will be very chaotic, but before the battle begins, the soldiers are one carrot and one pit to stay in their own firing position, if the enemy from his direction is killed, then most of them are killed by him, and the real-time battle report of each position needs to be reported to the superior, report your battle damage, your kills and the number of enemies opposite you.

The command needs to use these data to judge the next command method and battle plan.

If it is a false report, it will affect the direction of the battle, and it is very likely to cause huge casualties and lead to the defeat of the war.

Second, if there is no one on the battlefield to testify, but each unit has a writing clerk, responsible for recording the daily battle damage, and every time a small wave of battles is fought, the battle will be recorded, including the number of kills by some people, many times on the battlefield is a certain unit responsible for a single position, how many enemies lie on the position can be calculated, and there are observers on the position, they are all professionally trained, that is, they are responsible for counting the number of people on the battlefield.

Of course, these people are not there to record merit, but to judge the trend of the battlefield and provide effective intelligence to the headquarters and commanders.

Artillerymen, Demomans, Snipers, etc., all have a set of strict review standards, and the number of reported kills is reviewed over and over again to minimize the error.

During the entire period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, the number of kills counted by the volunteers was still conservative, and it was definitely only a lot more.

Thinking about it, Xu Yu spoke: "Xia Yuan, do you think what Old Man Wang said is right, I don't think it's right, how can you say that." ”

Xu Yu's words interrupted Xia Yuan's thoughts, which also made him a little crying and laughing, but he didn't expect Xu Yu to say that he couldn't say that Old Man Wang was looking for himself.

"Xia Yuan, tell me, the enemy you killed is what you killed, if you didn't kill it, you didn't kill it, how can you not kill it, you have to say that you killed it." Xu Yu was obviously angry with Old Man Wang.

Old man Wang is a little confused and unreasonable, but what he said still makes sense, these days, the system of the national army is not so rigorous, if you really want to go to the battlefield and kill people, who will know who killed those people, you have to insist that you beat them, and others have no evidence to prove that people were not beaten by you.

"Squad leader, if he mixes, you will follow him, and let him say it when he says it." Xia Yuan said nonchalantly.

If someone really chooses to lie about the number of enemies they killed, this kind of thing can't be proven, the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, it depends on who is more bastard than whom.

Xu Yu's face turned a little red, he had just argued with Old Man Wang for a long time, and found that he didn't take advantage of it, it was originally Old Man Wang who didn't take advantage of it, but Old Man Wang was thick-skinned, so he insisted on it, so even if Xu Yu was reasonable, it became unreasonable, he couldn't prove who killed the enemy who was killed, so there was no way to prove that he was lying.

"Hey, big man, what you said is not right, where are we mixed up, our squad leader also said, the battlefield is very chaotic, who killed those Japanese devils who were killed, are you right." Old man Wang's words are also reasonable, if someone really says that he killed more than a dozen, there is really no way to prove it.

Xia Yuan didn't want to talk to Old Man Wang about this matter, it was a meaningless thing in itself, and the national army didn't attach much importance to this matter, so no matter how much you thought about it, you couldn't help it.

"Squad leader, clean up here, the Japanese devils have bombed this place, I estimate that this place is not far from the front line."

Xia Yuan still couldn't guess what the battalion commander of the recruit battalion planned to let them do, but he had to be prepared to deal with all kinds of emergencies.

For example, what if this was the focus of the Japanese attack?

The devil knows if they were sold by the officers of the national army.

Xu Yu felt that what Xia Yuan said made sense, so he didn't bother with Old Man Wang about this matter anymore, but he still replied to Old Man Wang: "If you have a conscience, you won't lie, but if you don't have a conscience, you will lie." ”

Xu Yu's words made Xia Yuan couldn't help laughing, he didn't expect Xu Yu to be so stubborn, just like a scholar.

Old man Wang smoked a cigarette and said nonchalantly: "My life is going to be gone, and I have to have a conscience for what, so that others can be fed, it is better to let myself be fed." Big one, what do you say about books, people, pigs or something. ”

The scholar was wiping his gun, and when he heard what the old man Wang said, he said: "If people don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, people don't do it for themselves, and heaven and earth will be destroyed, this sentence is really good." Old man Wang clapped his hands and said, "It's still people who have gone to school who can speak." ”

After thinking about it, "Big one, how did you know this?" ”

The big head is stupid, even if it was suddenly beaten up, it was only more than a month later, and he actually knew this sentence.

Xia Yuan gathered the grass under him together to make himself lie more comfortable: "Suddenly I opened my mind, sometimes, this head is like the weather in the sky, one day at a time, you don't know what your head will think about tomorrow." ”

Such a mysterious thing, Old Man Wang didn't speak again, smoking quietly, his eyes kept turning, looking at the surrounding environment, the new barracks were scattered and stationed in the town, and this time was very suitable for escaping.

Thundered!

Suddenly, a dull, thunderous rumble sounded in the distance, followed by the sound of crackling gunfire coming from afar.

Everyone was stunned, and they all froze in place, not knowing what to do.

"What's the sound, is there thunder?"

"I don't know, is it gunshot?"

The sound was staccato and staccaly, and only a few minutes after the dull, thunderous rumble rang out, and the stumbling of gunfire rang out, accompanied by bursts of roar, and suddenly became lively in the clear morning.

"This is sending us to the front."

Xia Yuan's eyes moved, and the national army still sold them.

The battle lasted for more than an hour, and everyone lay on the broken wall and looked into the distance, and a thick smoke of gunpowder floated from a long distance, which was very far away from them, and the noisy sound of gunfire came from that direction, and a thick layer of gunpowder smoke floating in the sky could be seen in the distance, which was not the same as the black clouds in the sky.

"That's the battlefield over there, it's so close to us, it's to send us to the battlefield." Old man Wang's heart tightened, and he secretly thought to himself, if he didn't escape, he would have no chance.

He looked at the other people in the class, and they looked at each other as if they had made up their minds.

Company Commander Du suddenly came and gave an order to the second platoon: "The task of the second platoon is relatively arduous, the Japanese army is advancing very fast, our brother troops are resisting the Japanese attack on the front line, you have to occupy a village called Nuan Bai in the rear of the flank, and hold there." ”

Nuan Bai, a very unfamiliar name to Xia Yuan, does not seem to have appeared on the battlefield of Songhu, Xia Yuan thought for a while, but still did not find a memory of Nu Bai, so he asked: "Company commander, where is our current position?" ”

"We are located near the town of Luodian, the Japanese army has completed the landing on the 23rd, and advanced to the land of China, they are trying to destroy us, my good man will never agree! Guarding the swamp is your first lesson, can you complete the task! ”

"Yes!"

The fighters replied.

"Very well, you guys pack up and get ready to go."

"Yes!"

A platoon guarding the swamp shows that the current battlefield situation has not yet reached a very intense level.

Luodian Town is located at the end of the Hutai Highway, located on the side of Songhu, is the transportation hub between the Sujiang River and Shanghai, once the Japanese army captures Luodian, it can attack Dachang to the south, directly reach the Shanghai market, and cut off the retreat route of the Shanghai army. To the west, Jiading could be attacked and the Shanghai-Nanjing railway could be cut off.

More importantly, as long as the Japanese army captured the first-line position in Luodian, it was equivalent to completing the encirclement of the left flank of the Chinese army, and it was an important strategic point that China and Japan fought hard for in the early stage of the Battle of Songhu.

Nubai is located about ten kilometers southwest of Luodian, is a small village, because it is in the side and rear of Luodian, it is more than enough to station a platoon, after all, the main position of the Chinese and Japanese sides is still in Luodian. (End of chapter)
