Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 800

Chapter 800 Squeeze!

There was no mobilization, just a marching order and the whole regiment of the Fourth Army marched.

From the regimental commander Tang Dao down to the recruits and student soldiers who have not yet been awarded military ranks and are wearing new military uniforms, except for the wounded soldiers and female nurses in the medical team who did not meet the prescribed standards, the rest of them all carried less than 20 kilograms and more. Bearing weight up to 40 pounds.

This is also related to the policy formulated by Tang Dao, which allocated ammunition, equipment, and even horse feed and food that could not be transported by the baggage company to the infantry company.

That is to say, if an infantry company has 130 people, in addition to each person's own 15 kilograms of weight, each person will add an additional 10 kilograms of weight, and the entire company will need to distribute a total load of approximately 1,300 kilograms.

If someone is sick or weak and cannot bear such a heavy load, that doesn't matter. Your company will coordinate within your own company. Anyway, the total amount is given to your infantry company. Even if you crawl, your infantry company will have to drag away the 1,300 kilograms of extra weight.

In order to get rid of the burdens assigned to them, the company commanders of each company also showed their special skills. Some adopted an equalization system and assigned tasks to each platoon and squad. They used the method of spiritual victory, overcoming difficulties even if they were encountered, etc. Awards will be awarded based on performance upon arrival at the destination;

And some adopt a reward mechanism, like Zhao Daqiang, who suddenly got the idea after a battle in the gold pit. First, a base number was set, and then no matter who in the company could carry an extra 2 pounds above this base number, he would be rewarded. 2 yuan, and those who carry an extra 4 kilograms will be rewarded with 4 yuan. Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men. There are many people who carry more than 4 kilograms more, which just happens to help reduce a lot of burden on the body.

Whether it's spiritual rewards, material rewards, or any other method, Tang Dao doesn't care. He is the regiment leader. He only cares about the general direction and only grasps the most important core qualities of the entire regiment's officers and soldiers - protecting the home and country, and enforcing orders and prohibitions.

Grasping the big ones and releasing the small ones is one of the most important abilities Tang Dao learned after he gradually became a senior officer.

Moreover, Tang Dao is well aware of the complexity of the future battlefield in North China. According to the situation, it is very unlikely that the Four Lines Regiment will participate in a large battlefield like the Battle of Songhu. Eighty percent of the battlefields are small-scale raids. His men These infantry company commanders must grow into commanders in the future. They must have their own independent judgment when they are unable to contact the regiment headquarters.

To put it bluntly, this long-distance transportation march is not only a test of the physical fitness and mental will of ordinary officers and soldiers, but also a training ground for 800 recruits. It is also an assessment of the management capabilities of each company commander.

Those who do not perform well will definitely be discounted by Tang Dao when the Four Lines Regiment expands its troops again in the future.

Of course, compared to the load distribution that each company managed to accomplish on its own, the officers set an example one after another.

Regardless of whether they volunteered or not, the Sixings Regiment Headquarters also made rigid regulations. For each section of the Sixings Regiment, from lieutenant to above, the burden should be 5 kilograms more than that of ordinary soldiers, and the weight of school officers should be 2 kilograms more than that of lieutenant.

The rule of the Si Xing Tuan is that since you become an officer, the more military pay you receive, the more responsibilities you have to bear.

If you want to be a good officer, you must not only have a quick mind, but also have a good enough body. The new concept of Tang Dao was still somewhat uncomfortable for soldiers who came out of the old army before, but after following Tang Dao for a long time, I have gradually become accustomed to it.

Furthermore, Tang Dao has never been a double standard who says one thing and does another. As the leader of the group, even if he is not the first in the group, he is still one of the top two or three.

In addition to carrying the weight of his own equipment, Tang Dao also helped Tantai Mingyue carry an additional ten pounds. The head of Tang Da wanted to help his fiancée, which no one could say.

This fact makes the middle-aged handsome man who is walking with sore legs and feet quite satisfied. Not to mention being young, promising and talented, just because he loves his wife, the little butterfly from the future is definitely the most popular father-in-law in this era. Gratified.

Eating and clothing are very important, but after all these are available, whether or not you feel sorry for your wife is the first choice of parents in the world for their son-in-law.

The reason why Captain Tang, who carries a weight of up to 40 kilograms, is not number one is mainly due to the perverted existence of Ming Xin.

Xia Dayu was sick. He got sick on the second day after crossing Mangshang Mountain. I wonder if he was too young. He was sweating heavily while carrying twenty or thirty kilograms of equipment. Then he took off his military uniform and was blown away by the cold mountain wind. As soon as it blew, I contracted wind-chill that night.

The high fever persists and the fear of wind and cold makes it impossible to walk, let alone continue marching with a heavy load. This disease will be just a cold in the future, but in this era of lack of medical treatment and medicine, the mortality rate is not small. Special Operations Squadron If you dare to be careless there, you can only send Xia Dayu to the medical team for treatment.

But Xia Dayu's burden was left to the special operations squadron.

The special operations squadron currently has less than 60 people, but they also have a cavalry squad with 10 horses brought by Lu Sanjiang. Therefore, it is calculated based on two-thirds of the infantry company's transport capacity. There are horses to help share the load, but the special operations squadron averages it out. The weight of an individual soldier is also six kilograms higher than that of an ordinary infantry company.

Lao Hei, Gu Xishui, and Lu Sanjiang did not go to Tang Dao to complain. They were old men who had been with Tang Dao for more than two months. They knew that it would be useless to go and complain. Tang Dao said, "You are not going to be the whole group." The sharpest knife? How many more kilograms of weight will you be unable to carry? ' will block it for them.

Therefore, a lieutenant captain and two second lieutenant deputy captains of the special operations squadron could only grit their teeth and grit their teeth. The two captains, one captain and two deputy captains, set an example and each carried a load of thirty-three kilograms. Reserve members like Xia Dayu He also carried twenty-five kilograms on his back, while the average team member averaged nearly thirty kilograms.

Only for Xia Dayu's illness, the medical team was sent to him, but the twenty-five kilograms of weight could not be sent there, and had to be digested internally by the special operations team.

Ming Xin directly took over the ten kilograms of weight. Including his own epee, which was not included in the calculation, it was roughly estimated to be fifty kilograms.

Really, when they saw Mingxin walking on the road with three food bags hanging on her body, three rifles and ten grenades, and a heavy sword on her back, the officers and soldiers of the Sixings Regiment were shocked at first. Silently counting when this person will fall.

One day, two days, three days.

Until a week later, the strongest man in the Four Troops still walked at a constant speed in front of everyone, and the whole group was numb.

Not to mention anything else, this endurance alone is already twice that of an ordinary person.

For a week, the four-line regiment marched at least 60 miles per day according to the established marching speed. Some companies rested for too long and fell behind. That didn't matter. It took others 8 hours to reach the camp, but it took you 10 hours. 12 hours.

After arriving at the camp, the whole army did not eat and sleep immediately. Tang Dao's requirements were very strict. Each battalion and company had to dig field trenches and send out fixed sentries and mobile sentries.

It's not that Tang Dao was strict and didn't know the hard work of the officers and soldiers, but that even though they were far away from the Xuzhou battlefield, this road to the north did not mean that they would have nothing to worry about.

The Japanese army has begun to attack Henan Province, which is part of the First War Zone. The First War Zone is resisting the enemy with the Yellow River natural moat. Tang Dao cannot guarantee whether a small group of Japanese troops will have crossed the Yellow River and entered.

If the Japanese army makes a sneak attack on their own territory and causes losses, Shame and the newly established Four Lines Regiment will suffer a blow to their morale, and the equipment they have worked so hard to transport will be damaged, which is unacceptable to Tang Dao.

Since the two countries are at war, they must remain vigilant at all times. Tang Dao also hopes that his soldiers can maintain this vigilance as a habit.

Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army Regiment, who were already exhausted from marching long distances with high loads and maintaining a marching speed, had to build field positions after a short rest. By the time they finished eating, it was already around 11 o'clock in the night.

After 6 hours of sleep, the marching horn will be blown, and everyone will pack up their equipment, have breakfast, and embark on the march again.

Over and over again, in the words of Captain Li Jijin and Li Dal after arriving at the destination: "This is a nightmare march that he never wants to experience again in his life. Every day he faces the next sixty miles. The long road seems to have no end, and even He was even more desperate than when he was in Sihang Warehouse when 400 soldiers were surrounded by a Japanese infantry regiment. " Even a veteran who has experienced countless tragic battlefields will march in despair. For new recruits, it is even more desperate! It's a nightmare trip.

The new recruits are all in the baggage company. They don't have to build field positions like combat troops, but they are not idle either.

After arriving at the camp and resting for only half an hour, the veterans would blow the whistle and gather them together to conduct boring formation training with infantry platoons as units.

Two hours a day, there is no rain or shine, because there is no wind and no rain. In the cold winter in Yu Province, there is nothing but cold.

If someone falls, drag him aside, take a few sips of the **** soup prepared by the cooking team, take a rest, and continue.

　　It's not that no one wants to be lazy, but the veterans are so vicious and vicious. They have even killed the devilish Japanese. Who would care about a bunch of new recruits who joined the army to survive?

Those who are lazy will be punished by standing in a military position for three hours, and those who are not honest will be punished by one night.

Dare you not implement it? The military law team at the regiment headquarters is not a vegetarian. It does not treat new recruits with swords, guns and sticks. It is recorded that once, the military salary was halved, and the second time, they were beaten with ten horse whips. The third time, they took off their uniforms and left. Get out of the Four Lines Group.

This twelfth lunar month of winter is also in the wilderness. There is no need to be hungry. Just being cold will not make it last one night.

Making a choice between life and extreme exhaustion, it's that simple.

Fear of death does not mean that no one dares to violate military discipline. These new recruits were just a group of civilians a few days ago. For them to immediately become soldiers who obey the laws and regulations is something that even gods can hardly do.

In the face of this high-intensity training subject, there are many people who cheat and skate, some pretend to be sick, and some even deliberately injure themselves, falling into a pit with one foot and spraining their ankles so that they can't walk normally.

Faced with this kind of person, the platoon leader who was transferred from the guard company took a thunderous approach. It was okay to be sick or injured during the march, but he had to be reviewed. However, if a problem was found, the entire recruit class would enjoy the continuous sitting system. The recruits received 10 horse whips, and there were no preferential treatment for the recruits who were beaten. After the military doctor applied medicine and slept on their stomachs for a night, they still had to carry a load of more than 20 kilograms and march. Those who did not obey were naturally kicked out of the army.

The wound on my back was already painful, and when something heavy rubbed against it, the pain was even more excruciating, comparable to torture.

As for the culprits, Tang Dao didn't even say that he was beaten to death with a stick. They could find a way to escape, which shows that they can use their brains, but their intelligence is not used in the right place. The training of new recruits is not only to temper their bodies and wills, but also to let them find their way out. towards your own direction.

The punishment for such a sharp-headed soldier is to withhold military pay for two months and receive double the whip. If no improvement is seen, it is of course the most stringent military law.

The principle of Tang Dao is very simple. In this era, what China lacks most is industry, but what it lacks most is people.

The recruits are like this when they are young, how can they be expected to go to the battlefield where blood and flesh are everywhere? It's better to eliminate the problem early.

At this time, he cannot have any mercy. Even if he is the devil, he has to squeeze out the potential of these new recruits. If it is really impossible to squeeze out, it only means that he is not suitable to be a soldier.

Tang Dao, who also came through the recruit period, knows that the potential of the human body is unlimited. As long as he does not want to die, a dog can become a qualified soldier.

Hammer is the best example. An ordinary Chinese pastoral dog has become stronger after experiencing the precarious days of war. Even the Wolf Aoki, which the Japanese spent decades cultivating with optimal genes, were killed?

After punishing several thornheads in this way, and dozens of recruits in several infantry squads being punished for this, the military discipline of the recruits suddenly took on a new look.

Even if they are exhausted, no one dares to cheat on the seemingly useless queue training anymore.

In this era, Tang Dao used the simplest and crudest method to quickly integrate a group of refugees who were not even close to the military camp into the army.

Of course, Tang Dao does not just use thunderous means to train rigorously. A slap in the face and a sweet date are also needed to win people's hearts.

At noon, the simplest and most convenient food is basically steamed buns and broth, but at night, the frontline combat troops are busy building field positions, the new recruits are training, and the cooking squads assigned to each company are also busy.

A large amount of meat purchased from Xuzhou was distributed by the Military Supplies Department. Every night, each person in the regiment had three taels of meat and one egg plus two bowls of rice and two steamed buns. The food was standard, let alone those who lived on one tael of white porridge every day. The refugees, even the veterans of the Four Elements Regiment, have never enjoyed it.

This is also Tang Dao's opportunity to desperately replenish enough protein for these soldiers. Not only do they consume a lot of physical energy during the day, but these soldiers who come from poor families are basically lacking in sufficient nutrition.

On the battlefield, a 'big man' who is 1.7 meters tall can't defeat a little devil who is only 1.5 meters tall. In the final analysis, he just lacks strength.

The heavy march during the day is like a millstone that drains the energy of the entire regiment's officers and soldiers, and then replenishes it with rich nutrients. The cycle starts again and again. Tang Dao believes that it won't take too long, regardless of whether it's new or old soldiers, not to mention the stabbing skills. With strength, it is not a problem for a little devil to fight alone.

The short legs of the Japanese are due to a genetic defect. Until nearly a hundred years in the future, the Japanese, who have been drinking milk since childhood to improve their physique, have not improved much in the overall stature of the nation.

Compared to the 500 new soldiers, it was the 300 student soldiers that made Tang Dao look at him with admiration.

These talented students, like the new recruits, did not receive any preferential treatment. The 300-member student company was allocated 5,000 kilograms of various equipment and ammunition. They did not have personal equipment, but they all brought their own personal belongings. Some students even He also carried more than ten kilograms of books.

That also means that the individual weight of the student company is more than 20 kilograms per person on average. For this group of scholars, who also have many girls, the cliff is an impossible task.

When Zhuang Shisan distributed the load to each unit according to the military order, even Tang Dao secretly murmured whether this was too harsh on the student soldiers, and even ordered Erya to run to ask Teacher Xiao He if they really couldn't carry it, the guards Lian can help them share some of it.

As a result, the student even refused. Not only did he refuse, but he also persisted.

At least in the first week, they maintained the same intensity as the regular army and the new recruits and persisted smoothly.

Furthermore, they also took the initiative to ask the veteran squad leader to conduct queue training for them, but in the end Tang Dao considered that they would not become combat soldiers in the future and reduced the evening training to one hour.

Sometimes, ideals can be turned into motivation.

This gave Tang Dao a new understanding of them.

These scholars are of great use!
