Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 801 Tang Dao's Anxiety!
It's just that just insisting on it for a week is useless!

This arduous march lasted nearly 40 days.

By the second week, some people finally couldn't bear it, some fell ill and fell down, and some fell into the deep ditch due to exhaustion and caused various traumas.

Fortunately, after nearly two weeks of heavy consumption, the Quartermaster Department of the Four Elements Regiment consumed a total of more than 20 catties of rice noodles, and more than [-] catties of various materials such as fresh meat and bacon, which can be regarded as freeing up the transport capacity of nearly [-] carts.

Zhuang Shisan, who is becoming more and more proficient in logistics work, has shown his amazing logistics management talent. From the first week, he gathered the vacated carts, and they were carried by the soldiers on their shoulders without pulling them. instead of various equipment and ammunition, a wounded rescue team was set up, led by several officers from the Military Law Department and the Military Supply Department under the regiment's staff, and a few nurses from the medical team, and even the mother and son of the Yue family and the Shi brothers and sisters entered which helps.

Once there are injuries in each company and department, those who can walk will be treated by themselves, and those who cannot walk will all be treated and transported by the wounded rescue team.

Of course, taking the mother and son of the Yue family and the Shitou brothers and sisters into the doctor-patient rescue team is actually a disguised form of Zhuang Shisan's care for them.

Tang Dao's military order was very strict, and no one could get special care. Although Madam Yue and Sanxiao didn't have to carry heavy loads, they didn't have a carriage, so they had to march on foot.

Ximei is only three years old, how can those two short legs walk 60 miles a day?Leng Feng and a group of strong soldiers from the third battalion took turns to carry Ximei on their backs. Although Shitou and Yue Yiman were not very big, the two little brothers showed a tenacity that did not match their age.

They were too tired without asking anyone to help them, so they dragged the tail of the horse that was assigned to Leng Feng, which was also loaded with supplies, and walked forward.

After all, I was still young, and sometimes I fell asleep while walking, and my nose bleeds when I fell down. Two little guys who had seen the war with their own eyes cried, got up and continued to move forward, which made people feel distressed.

Mrs. Yue is because of her small feet. Although she is an adult, she is not as good as the two children in terms of walking. Tantai Mingyue found a reason to borrow Mrs. Yue to the medical team to help change the dressings for the wounded. Sitting in a carriage.

As for the Hammer, I don't know if it's because the last time I beat the rabbit, I fell in love with playing with Sanxiao. He often slipped from the regiment headquarters to find Ximei. When I couldn't bear it anymore, I saw the hammer becoming more and more solid under the nourishment of broth and rice, and I couldn't help but make a plan.

Putting Ximei on the back of 'Hammer', Hammer liked Ximei very much and had no objection, so he marched for a week with Ximei, who weighed [-] kilograms, on his back.

The young Ximei knows what it means to march hard. With the hammer on her broad and strong back, she is like riding a steed. The silver bell-like laughter resounds through the road. Hair, lying on the back of the hammer to sleep.

One person and one dog is definitely the most beautiful scenery on the march of the Four Elements Regiment!
"Look at the hammer, the villain on your back is no lighter than the equipment on your back, stand up for me, step forward, and stride forward!" I don't know how many old squad leaders said this slogan. Motivate the soldiers under your command who have hung their heads and are lifeless because of exhaustion.

None of the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment who were familiar with Hammer regarded it as a dog, not only because the military rank collar pinned to the vest on Hammer was a corporal, but also because Hammer had been on the battlefield with them, without its double image With clairvoyant ears, there are countless people here who don't even have the chance to participate in this arduous march.

'Our four-line regiment, no matter who it is, as long as it goes to the battlefield, kill the enemy!That is the comrade in arms! 'This is the concept taught by the veterans of the Four Elements Regiment to the recruits.

What may make the 500 recruits a little bit embarrassing is that when the whole army is resting, when the hammer carrying Ximei happens to pass by their queue, they also need to salute the hammer wearing the corporal collar badge.

"What's so embarrassing, the rank of corporal with the hammer was won by himself. The little devil's wolf green dog is as tall as a person when standing up, and the blood basin can bite off an arm of you recruits with a big mouthful. The hammer killed it." A veteran squad leader lazily introduced the achievements of the hammer. "If you can do it, you can also be soldiers! Future recruits can also salute you!"

Perhaps no one thought that Corporal Hammer became the future goal of many recruits. What an ordinary watchdog can do, why can't they do it?

Getting Mrs. Yue and San Xiao to the medical and patient rescue team, although they have to do some work, but at least the four of them can squeeze into the carriage and don't have to march so hard.

Of course, Tang Dao also acted as if he didn't see the blatant "back door" of the regiment chief of staff.

And the middle-aged handsome guy has suffered a bit in the past two weeks. His neatly combed hairstyle is messy and he doesn't bother to tidy up. He hasn't shaved his beard. He is wearing a blue cotton-padded robe full of dust, but his spirit is much better. , It vividly demonstrated what is called 'life lies in movement'.

A week ago, I met Tang Dao once and yelled at Tang Dao, which made Tang Dao walk around the road when he saw him, but in the next week, Tang Dao couldn't see him anymore, which is quite strange. Dao felt that he was also cheap, and he took the initiative to visit him one night, and the result was obvious.

He was told by a handsome middle-aged man: Get out, don't bother me!I was driven away.

However, Tantai Yunshu didn't bother to talk to his future son-in-law this time because of the blisters on his feet, but because he started to get busy.

He is painting!

During the long march, the soldiers were sweating and panting heavily, and the picture of still stubbornly marching forward suddenly gave this artist inspiration.

This great Jiangnan painter named his painting "Thousands of Miles", and used his own brush to show the hard marching state of an army from south to north!
The handsome middle-aged man who got the inspiration spent six nights and finally completed this painting that he thought he was most proud of in his life.

Because even he himself is in the painting!

Although Lei Xiong and his officers are old-fashioned, poetry, lyrics, songs, fu, and paintings are not in their world, but this does not hinder their aesthetics, especially when they see themselves in the paintings.

Tantai Yunshu is worthy of being a famous painter all over the south of the Yangtze River. He didn't let anyone put POSS as a model, and he was able to present what he saw in his paintings based on what he saw during the day.

Beads of sweat rolled down the dark face, the soles of the feet were bloody due to tearing blisters, and they fell asleep without having time to eat while holding two steamed buns. The hardships of the soldiers were vividly described by this great painter.

Among them is Lei Xiong, an officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel on his collar badge, with a ring of grenades stuck in his waist, two belts full of yellow and orange bullets crossed on his chest, two rifles on his back, and He fired two shell guns and carried a box of bullets on his shoulders. It was like a mobile arsenal.

"Mr. Tantai, sell this painting to me! I'll leave it to my boy, so that he can take a good look at how he beat the little devil back then." Lei Xiong grinned happily.

"Get out!" Tantai Yunshu squinted his eyes and buried the shamelessness of the 'poor guy' who would not be able to receive military pay for seven months.

Are you here to be funny!The soles of my feet are full of calluses to hold back such a masterpiece, and it will enter a national museum in the future. Let your silly son hang on the wall as a "portrait" in memory of his father?
This is Tantai Yunshu's traditional taboo, otherwise these subtexts would make Lei Xiong go berserk on the spot.

thousands of miles?Perhaps only Tang Dao sighed silently.

This two-thousand-mile long-distance march from south to north may be very difficult, but compared to the previous great transfer of thousands of miles, it is really nothing!

Tang Dao from the future, like many people in the future, knows that the big transfer that lasted more than a year and traveled thousands of miles is extremely difficult.

But how difficult and difficult it is is actually not so clear.

Because, the times are different, the landforms are different, and even the people are different, so there is no way to reproduce it!
But now, Tang Dao has a similar experience.

Don't mention anything else, let's talk about the doctor-patient rescue team established by Zhuang Shisan with foresight.

By the second week, 20 large vehicles had transported nearly 150 patients of various kinds, and the injury rate of the entire Four Elements Regiment reached an astonishing 5.00%.

But this is only the second week, and the whole regiment has only traveled 900 miles, and it is still in the plains. Tang Dao, who has personally experienced this round of arduous and long-distance marching, can be regarded as a clearer understanding of the original strength of the army. How tenacious.

In more than a year, they traveled more than 10,000 miles, lacking supplies and fighting continuously. Although none of them could reach the destination in the end, and the battle damage rate reached more than 90.00%, that is still the history of mankind. Miracle on.

Even if it is an elite unit like the Four Elements Regiment, if it is reproduced as it is, based on the current injuries and injuries, Tang Dao estimates that the probability of the entire army being wiped out is greater than 50.00%.

From a certain point of view, apart from the fact that the current Four Elements Regiment is better than the former army in terms of equipment and individual quality, it is more than a little weaker in terms of spiritual will.

The reason is simple, that army has the dream of feeding the world's poor, while the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment now have the concept of defending their home and country, but they pay more attention to their own small family and lack ideals.

But this cannot be blamed on them. In today's era when the literacy rate is less than [-]%, most of the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment from farming families can't even write their own names well. Who will tell them what is ideal?

In other words, it is the ideal of officers and soldiers to feed and clothe the whole family.

This ideal seems very realistic, but it is extremely far away!
Because the hometown was invaded, the means of living were in the hands of foreigners, a year of hard work would be taken away by the invaders, and even the safety of life could not be guaranteed, let alone dignity.

If you want to realize that humble dream, you must first win the war, that is the foundation.

And dreams are destined to be the shore that human beings pursue all their lives but are hard to reach.

Even if the invaders are defeated, there are still more terrifying mountains pressing on the people. That is the gentry class that has existed in China for thousands of years, and the new bourgeois comprador class that has formed in recent decades. These classes are like blood-sucking worms. Lying on the body of the largest base of workers and peasants, sucking blood for a living.

No matter how hard you work, you are destined to become a nutrient for those blood-sucking insects, and use the hard work of most people to feed that little sucker.

This is the current situation in China!The people are suffering, but they are numb. No one tells them how to save the future of themselves and their children and grandchildren.

Everyone comes to this world, just to live and live.

"Our four-element regiment needs a good political commissar!" Tang Dao sighed softly as he looked at the ever-increasing wounded list under the oil lamp!

Tantai Mingyue, who was sitting opposite Tang Dao and writing notes under the oil lamp, raised her head, smiled softly, got up and filled Tang Dao's teacup with water: "You still don't agree with the spiritual will shown by the Four Elements Group at present. So satisfied! If my guess is correct, you are more inclined to the way that army governs!"

"Yes, the examples in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Jinling have shown that it is wrong to put suitcases full of oceans in front of soldiers to motivate their determination to fight before the battle. People are going to die. The discovery dayang that I put in my pocket for a moment is just the enemy's spoils of war!" Tang Dao nodded. "As the soldiers of the country, we should first establish the idea of ​​why we fight and for whom we fight."

"Just like my four-element regiment, there are a lot of material rewards. It can stimulate the officers and soldiers' determination to kill the enemy in a short period of time, but it is not long enough. Just look at this long-distance march. The injury rate is as high as 5.00%. If we go another 500 miles and the injury rate increases by another 5 percentage points, then I don’t think we need to go any further.” Tang Dao frowned. "Long-distance marching, it is normal for non-combat attrition due to huge physical exertion, but such a high non-combat attrition rate has exposed one of the biggest shortcomings of our four-element regiment, the fighting will is still too weak.

"In the past, on the battlefield, if you didn't persevere, you had to die. These guys can still hold on, but now at least you don't have to die. Once the will becomes weak, there will be one after another, such as wind chills and falls. The illness and injury are real, then It is also a chain reaction formed after the will becomes weak!
In my opinion, it is imminent to carry out ideological education for the officers and soldiers of the whole regiment, otherwise, even if they arrive at the destination, many people will lose their fighting will and can't use it anymore! "

"You are a little too anxious!" Tantai Mingyue sighed slightly when she saw Tang Dao, who was rarely anxious, showing a sad face. "Although I am not a soldier, I have seen many troops. These veterans of the Four Elements Regiment actually performed very well. Compared with the elite troops I have seen, their performance is at least among the top three."

"That's right! I was a little too anxious." Tang Dao silently lit a cigarette. "But I'm not in a hurry, so what can I do? The Japanese won't give us more time. The battle of Xuzhou has already begun. The Japanese army from the north and the south is as high as 24, which is one division more than the previous estimate. If Xuzhou If the area is lost, it means that the railway traffic leading to Zhengzhou and Jiangxia will also fall into the enemy's hands. At that time, the Japanese army will use this railway line to transport the army to central China.

If Central China falls, South China will be hard to protect. At that time, China will only have the remote southwestern part in its own hands, and a large piece of fertile land will be lost to the enemy, and our army will only be able to defend the southwest. Chance? "

This is also the first time Tang Dao has expressed his anxiety to others since he came to this world.

Although Tang Dao already knew the direction of the general trend of history, Tang Dao still felt unwilling, not to mention that he knew that the turning point of the Sino-Japanese War was the outbreak of the Pacific War three years later, and the beautiful country was killed by the brain-dead Japanese on the ass. After being stabbed severely, I can no longer sit comfortably on the Diaoyutai and enjoy the huge profits brought about by the global war from selling arms, minerals, steel, etc., so I choose to join the war!

But what if in this time and space, the Japanese, who have always had strange brain circuits, suddenly become normal!They choose not to be stupid or two years late to be stupid?What about concentrating the power of the whole country to deal with China's confidant?

Tang Dao dare not and cannot pin the fate of his own nation on the stupidity or non-stupidity of another nation.

As Tang Dao said, he couldn't help but be in a hurry!
"Anything, it's too late!" Tantai Mingyue looked at the anxious Tang Dao, but with a flicker of eyes, she made a suggestion: "You want to improve the spiritual willpower of the officers and soldiers of the whole regiment. At this stage, there are no good candidates for ideological reform. Instead of blindly relying on the toughness of military law, it is better to do the opposite and use the upcoming New Year's Eve to let everyone relax their tense nerves. The so-called relaxation has a way, and perhaps instill some truths into everyone when people relax Guys, it works better!"

"New Year's Eve?" Tang Dao was slightly taken aback. "What's the date in the Gregorian calendar now?"

"It is now January 1938, 1, which is also the 24rd of the twelfth lunar month, a small year in the north!"

"It's almost New Year's Eve! This is a good idea!" Tang Dao suddenly remembered the time.

My eyes suddenly lit up!
