Chapter 41: Monk Wei's Opportunity
When Li Yunlong heard this, he was in a bad mood. Why did the brigade commander target his prepared backbone personnel?
But the brigade commander was very cunning! He guessed that Li Yunlong was not well-informed enough to know the performance of the scout trainees, especially last night.
So he dug this pit and let Li Yunlong jump into it.
Li Yunlong would never accept this!
The palms and backs of my hands are all made of flesh, and it hurts if I cut any part of them!
"Brigade Commander, you can't do this, you are robbing!"
The brigade commander held back his laughter. This brat has finally met his day. Hasn’t he always been calculating?
When negotiating with me, he always asks for a very high price at the beginning, and then makes a roundabout way to propose a condition that is barely acceptable. But I always fall for it.
Today I am also going to plot against you, Li Yunlong.
“There is no room for negotiation. The school has retained seven of the 47 students as instructors for the next term.
There are 40 people left. You can keep 20 of them, and the remaining 20 must report to the brigade headquarters.
do you have any opinion?"
The last question was short and powerful, which immediately eliminated Li Yunlong's temper.
"No problem, how dare I have a problem? This mother-in-law is snatching my little daughter-in-law's private money, and I can only bear it!"
The first two sentences sounded normal, but the last two sentences were in a mumbling tone that only he could hear.
Fortunately, the brigade commander didn't hear it. If he had heard it, he would have been punished.
After the brigade commander left, he was very happy and immediately asked someone to pack his new military uniform to take with him to take up his new post.
However, when he arrived at the Independent Regiment and learned about the losses in that battle and the battle report from the Scout School, he suddenly felt heartbroken.
As time goes by, dreams are many. As soon as he heard that this batch of students in the Scout School had graduated, he immediately sent a signalman to the Scout School to quickly collect the 20 scouts left after the brigade commander left, for fear that the headquarters would hear the news and come to snatch them away.
In fact, the headquarters really heard the news, after all, the battle reports were sent up.
The independent regiment, with more than a thousand or almost two thousand people, did not collapse in the first battle, but lost nearly 300 people, but did not leave even a single enemy corpse.
What about the Scout School?
There were more than fifty people, and it took less than ten minutes to eliminate the enemy. Only 19 people escaped, two were captured, and 65 enemy special forces were killed.
Comparing the results like this, one instantly gives people the feeling that one is in heaven and the other is in hell.
Although the battle at the Scout School was an ambush, it felt a bit like taking the enemy by surprise.
But isn’t it the same for the Independence Regiment?
They had been warned in advance and were on guard, but they still did not expect the other party to climb up from the cliff behind them, which was impossible to climb up.
This is negligence, this is carelessness. Any negligence or carelessness in war may lead to serious failure.
So in general, this scout school is very strong, and the soldiers it teaches are also very strong.
The headquarters immediately became interested in this group of scouts. They heard that Brigade Commander Chen was going to take 20 and Li Yunlong was going to take 20.
The headquarters originally planned to ask Li Yunlong for help, but then they thought that Li Yunlong was not in a easy situation either. The morale of an entire regiment had been crushed, and adding these 20 people could quickly restore the morale of the troops and improve their combat effectiveness.
So he had to ask Brigade Commander Chen for it, and he took half of it, which made Brigade Commander Chen very sad.
On the independent regiment's side, Li Yunlong had just helped Kong Jie ask the boss for a deputy regiment commander so that he would not be allowed to feed the horses.
"You've read the battle report, and you also know what Chen Xiao from the Scout School said. Although we lost this time, the main reason is that you don't understand this type of soldier.
Actually, I don’t understand it either, but Chen Xiao does. Now I suddenly feel that this scholar seems to be omnipotent.
Xiucai said that even if he really dragged the people from his school into the wild to fight against the enemy's special forces, he would not be able to defeat them.
He was able to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop because he had a grenade launcher, a mortar, and an ambush, and it was a well-prepared ambush.
Old Kong!
As the saying goes, every failure makes one wiser. I have asked Xiucai for the remaining 20 trainee soldiers. It seems that we also need to form such a small unit. "
Kong Jie took a puff of his pipe and said sadly, "It's also my fault. I always thought that it's impossible for anyone to climb up to a place like the cliff on the back mountain.
But we didn’t expect that there is always someone stronger than you. Just because we can’t climb up doesn’t mean others can’t climb up.
It was my fault for not posting a guard post here.
I heard that these 20 reconnaissance trainees can be considered as special forces in another sense.
I'll take these 20!
I also want to know how these special forces are trained?
Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. I still understand this principle!"
Li Yunlong chuckled twice, exposing his intention: "Hey, Kong Erlangzi, as soon as you stick your tail out, I know what you are up to. You are playing tricks in front of me.
I will pick out the 30 best members of the entire regiment and add them to the original 20 to form a reinforced platoon.
This platoon is under my direct leadership. According to the training taught by Xiucai, I will make this platoon the best spearhead platoon.
Whatever the enemy has, we must also have.
"Don't even think about taking over this platoon. You, Old Kong, are only the temporary deputy commander of the independent regiment. I don't know when you will be appointed. If you take my sharp knife platoon with you, who can I cry to?"
…
Independent regiment, regimental headquarters playground.
20 people stood in two rows and reported to Li Yunlong.
"Comrade Commander, the scout trainees have come to report. There should be 20 people, and there are 20 people actually here."
Li Yunlong examined the 20 scouts in front of him and said, "I have heard about your achievements. Your principal has written your achievements under each of your names.
Huang Xiaoqing, you can suppress the firing port of the small turret with a rifle by yourself, allowing your teammates to calmly approach the turret and throw in grenades.
Li Shuangquan, you threw the grenade!
For a grenade weighing just over half a pound, others can pass if they can throw it into a basket at 35 meters. How about you?
You can throw a wooden-handled grenade into a basket at a distance of 60 meters. You can also throw the Japanese melon-shaped grenade into a basket at a distance of 45 meters. Your principal gave you a nickname, which is "human grenade launcher", right?
And you, I heard that your Japanese grades are very good. Your favorite thing to do is to use the enemy's telephone lines to notify the artillery tower that someone is coming to deliver supplies, and then you disguise yourself as a Japanese and lead a team to sneak in and kill the enemy effortlessly, right?
You, you have the best rock climbing ability. Your principal said that with a terrain like the cliff at the back of the independent regiment, not to mention Yamamoto's special forces, even you trainee soldiers can climb it easily as if it were flat ground.
And you…"
After commenting on each of them , Li Yunlong finally said the key point: "You are all excellent soldiers, but your principal said that a single flower does not make spring, but a hundred flowers in full bloom make the whole garden full of spring. He teaches you skills so that you can teach more comrades and fight more enemies.
This statement is a bit pedantic, I don't like it, so I changed it a bit. Even if you are given a machine gun, how many can you kill if you fight the Japs alone? If we want to fight the Japs, of course we should fight together!
Everyone agrees, right?
So I will pick out 30 of the best people in the whole group and form a spearhead platoon with you.
From now on, you will be the spearhead of the independent regiment. Wherever the fight is hardest, wherever the challenge is most difficult, that’s where you should go!
Understand?"
"Yes! Use me in the first battle, and I will definitely win!"
"Hahahaha! This sentence is encouraging. I like it!"
…
"Monk Wei, we have been transported here for several days. Have you recovered from your injuries?"
The prisoner-of-war camp is no longer the same prisoner-of-war camp as before, it has been moved to a new location.
But the people are still the same, just some are missing.
There were only about two hundred people present.
"You guys, come out..."
