Chapter 69: The way to select people
"What do you think?" Kong Jie asked.
"Hey, what is the relationship between us, Old Li, and the scholar?
Let's send a few people over for training. He will at least give some face to Old Li!
Let’s go and see how Monk Wei selects his people.
We will come back to pick them, and at least squeeze a few in. When they learn the skills and come back, we will also form a special forces team!"
Li Yunlong chuckled and said that as long as there were benefits, he would be extremely shameless.
Kong Jie was also tempted when he heard him say that: "Let me make a deal first, when the people who were stuffed in come back, you have to give me a few!"
Who is Li Yunlong? He was the man who could argue with Ding Wei for a long time over a machine gun, but Kong Jie actually wanted to ask him for someone else's help. I don't know what he was thinking.
But it seemed that something was wrong with Lao Li today, and he actually agreed.
"Okay! Since you, Old Kong, have spoken, I can't refuse no matter how reluctant I am. If it works out, I'll give it to you two!" Li Yunlong waved his hand and agreed.
"If you don't agree... Hey... you actually agree?" Kong Jie originally wanted to say that if you don't agree, then he will not participate in the matter of selecting soldiers.
Hehe! After all, Lao Kong had led the independent regiment to fight so many battles. His prestige in the regiment was much higher than that of the new commander Li Yunlong. If he didn't give the order, although there were people who participated in the selection, who knew how much effort they would make.
This is a bit like pulling up a small hill.
Li Yunlong also knew about this situation, but he didn't care. No matter how prestigious Lao Kong was, he would have to leave after all.
The independent group is small and cannot support two big fish.
Besides, if he stands together with Lao Kong, he can suppress Lao Kong.
In the next few months, as long as he can lead the independent regiment to win a few battles and unite the people, then no matter whether Lao Kong leaves or not, the one who has the final say in the independent regiment will still be him, Li Yunlong!
But at the moment, the most important thing is to select people.
"Hu Zi! Take a company and guard the things in the house. Don't let even a fly fly in!" Li Yunlong ordered his guards.
"Yes!" Hu Zi took the order and called a guard company to surround the house from front to back and left to right. Only then did Li Yunlong set out to walk towards the school.
…
When Zhao Gang arrived at the school, he met Liu Qiang and Wei Heshang who had just gathered people. He called the two aside and told them to let the monk select the people, and then they would take the things to the headquarters, and then turn around from the headquarters to Taiyuan to Chen Xiao's arsenal.
Liu Qiang hasn't spoken yet!
The monk took out another letter from his pocket, handed it to Zhao Gang and said, "The principal said that if you want someone from the school to escort you, I will give you this letter!"
Zhao Gang took the letter and took a look at it. The cover just had Zhao Gangqi written on it, so he tore open the envelope and took it out.
The letter was very short, simply explaining that the fifty scout instructors were not included in the selection this time, and would continue to stay as instructors to train better scouts.
Therefore, if Zhao Gang wanted to protect the East and West Brigade Headquarters, he could only allow a maximum of thirty instructors on campus to accompany him.
"Okay! Instructor, Liu Qiang, go select 30 people and follow me immediately to carry out the escort mission!" Zhao Gang gave an order and Liu Qiang immediately took the order and left.
"All instructors assemble!"
Once the order was issued, it was carried out with swift and decisive action. That was the style Chen Xiao used when he was training Liu Qiang and the fifty or so other people.
In less than two minutes, all the instructors had assembled.
"Report to the chief instructor, all instructors have assembled. There are 53 people who should be here, and 53 people are here. Please give instructions!"
"At ease! Get in line!"
"yes!"
Liu Qiang cleared his throat, and then began to give orders loudly: "The first, second and third groups will stay, and the fourth and fifth groups will take over the work of the first three groups and continue to train the students, but there is no need for training today, we will have a selection.
We’ll talk about the selection later. Now, Group 1, 2, and 3, the vice-president has a task for you, which is to escort him to the headquarters!
What you have to do is to defeat any enemy who dares to stop you during the escort. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" The short and powerful response showed their current mental state, a great state.
After Zhao Gang left, Liu Qiang and the monk returned to the large playground where personnel were assembled to continue the special forces selection meeting organized by Chen Xiao.
Li Yunlong and Kong Jie saw Zhao Gang leading people out. Zhao Gang saw that these two had arrived, and he wondered who would watch over the things?
After finding out that Hu Zi had brought a company to guard there, he led his men away.
Li Yunlong and Kong Jie hurried in and just saw Liu Qiang and Monk Wei talking to each other.
Or to be more precise , Monk Wei was reading Chen Xiao's letter.
"I've been busy lately, so busy that I've been so busy that I've been hitting my heels with my farts, so I haven't found time to come back and teach you.
However, the instructor I found for you is also very capable, and he was taught by me personally.
You have been training here for more than a month. After passing the assessment in more than a month, you will graduate, take off your student uniforms and put on the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army again.
When the time comes, take what you have learned back to your original unit and teach more people.
but--
I have another path here, a path called special forces.
Special forces are the scouts among scouts.
You scouts are the best people selected from your original units and sent to school to study.
This means that you are qualified to study and train here, and you are already the best soldiers.
You have been training here for three months. After you go back, ordinary soldiers will not be your match.
But are we satisfied with this?
I believe you have also heard that the Japanese have a special forces unit with strong combat effectiveness. Their record so far has only been shown to us in two battles.
In the first battle, 86 of them launched a surprise attack on an independent regiment of more than 2,000 people, instantly killing and wounding more than 200 soldiers, and then retreated calmly without losing a single person.
The second battle was between more than 50 scouts from our scout school. When they learned the route the enemy must take, they took advantage of the darkness and pre-marked shooting elements to successfully launch a sneak attack on Yamamoto's special forces unit as they were retreating.
He also suffered no casualties himself, but left 2/3 of the enemy behind.
In this regard, some people think that our scouts are more powerful than the Japanese special forces!
I'm telling you here that if it wasn't a surprise attack, even if all the dozens of instructors from the Scouting School were on the field, they wouldn't be able to hold back so many people on the other side."
“But when it comes to sneak attacks, if they suffer a loss once, they will remember it!
Next time, if we fail to launch a sneak attack on others and are instead attacked by them again, what will we use to deal with them? We must also have what the Japanese have.
So I decided to pick out 50 of the best people among you to form our country's first special forces. We will use special forces to fight special forces. The next time the Japanese come, they will never come back!"
After the monk finished reading, Liu Qiang stepped forward and said, "Are there any of you who are unwilling to take the test?
If you have, you can quit. I just heard that the assessment is difficult, tiring, and painful!"
No one spoke below, silence was the best answer.
"Next, we will start the first selection test..."
