Chapter 178 New Understanding
Of the 690 members of the entire battalion, the three company commanders couldn't stand Xiang Xiang and went off to compete in person.

Standing on the embankment, Li Chong announced with a tin horn, "I announce that the first sports meeting of the [-]st Battalion of the [-]rd Regiment begins now!"

With a gunshot, each project unfolded in turn.

"Okay, you have to be as ruthless as Old Tang! Those who win will eat big meat, and those who lose can only drink soup! Hahaha!"

Li Chong stood on the embankment with a binoculars, looked at the enthusiastic crowd and smiled, the cohesion of the team was raised in the competition.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, the four games ended. It is reasonable that [-] people should eat meat first. It happened that there were ten people in a circle around a pot. In front of Li Chong, there were only about forty people who ate pork first.

"Battalion Commander, I've ranked in all four events by myself, so should I eat four bowls?" The company commander's loud voice was very proud.

"Of course! As long as you can eat it."

"Haha, there is no one who can't eat pork these days."

A [-]-jin fat pig couldn't be eaten by just forty people, and the soldiers behind also got a bowl of thick broth to drink.

"It's comfortable!" Yi Lianchang sat on the stone and patted his belly, his mouth was full of oil, and he put a piece of red pepper into his mouth when he was so happy, his face was flushed.

"Company Commander, is the meat delicious?" The young soldier who only rubbed a little broth and minced meat looked at the company commander Tang Dayao, and smacked his lips as his company commander ate, and his own mouth moved subconsciously.

Tang Dayao licked the bowl clean, "Of course, this is much more than slices of bacon with no fat at all. The gentry in this place are really unkind. We stayed here for more than a month, half a pig hair I didn’t even see it, but as soon as the battalion commander took out the ocean, the fat pig appeared. Boy, if you want to eat meat in the future, you have to learn your skills, we Sichuan people will not have any cowards after we leave Sichuan.”

"Company Commander, I heard that our battalion commander has no trouble picking three. Tell us about it." The bravery of the new battalion commander spread among the soldiers of the whole battalion. The whole battalion was the most powerful on the first day. The three company commanders who joined forces have not been able to beat the new battalion commander. They have all experienced how ruthless the company commanders are when they usually train them, and this new battalion commander only looks about the same age as themselves.

It is difficult to say that it is easy to integrate into the army, at least the strong are easily recognized.

Tang Dayao glanced back, sure enough good things never go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

Li Chong looked at some soldiers who hadn't hung a long gun on their backs, and when he was thinking about how to get a gun, the three company commanders wiped their mouths and came to Li Chong at the same time.

"Battalion Commander, we want to discuss something with you."

"To be frank, they are all brothers in the same battalion."

The four of them walked to the open space, and the company commander Tang Dayao said, "Well, didn't you, battalion commander, ask us to send a squad of brothers to dig wild vegetables in the mountains? Is there not enough food rations?"

When Li Chong heard this, he thought it was his order to dig wild vegetables in the mountains that caused their misunderstanding about the lack of food, so he immediately explained, "No, I think the whole camp eats two meals a day now, and I want to enrich the food. It becomes three meals a day, so as to maintain enough physical strength."

"So that's how it is." The three company commanders breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, feeling a little moved in their hearts, because the series of actions the new battalion commander took as the new battalion commander sincerely spoke for the whole battalion.

"Actually, our companies were training recruits here before, and you didn't come, Battalion Commander, so we didn't raise food by ourselves," said Tang Dayao, the company commander.

"Finish yourself?"

"Yeah, you can't just rely on the distribution from above. You are a graduate of the Central Military Academy, so you may not know it. You will understand in the future. The supply of our Sichuan Army is not as timely as that of the Central Army. Of course, our [-]st, [-]rd and [-]rd Divisions are getting good treatment now."

Listening to what the three said, Li Chong realized that he was too orthodox.Listening to these veterans at this moment, it was an eye-opener.

Is it possible for a troop to be stationed in a local area to conduct daily training steadily, eat food delivered regularly, and wait for orders from the top to fight at any time?
Li Chong, who came out of the military academy, thought this was the normal state of an army.

As a result, the words of the three company commanders made Li Chong understand that this was not the case.

For example, you can still do business, sell some arms, and sell the old guns eliminated from the army to the local gentry. This is an honest business.

In the words of the three company commanders, "Anyway, our [-]st, [-]rd and [-]rd divisions are paid by the Central Army. After a battle, we should report the losses to the superiors a little more. This business is more particular than that of the 'Two Guns' selling cigarettes. That's too much."

Otherwise, why do soldiers dream of becoming officials?
Because as long as you sit in the position of battalion commander or above, you can lead troops to station on one side when you are not fighting, and you will have the space to use your hands and feet independently.Then at this time, I can make money. I have a gun and someone under my hand, so I am afraid that I will not be able to get money and food?
Otherwise, how many of my aunts will marry if the chief of the army is not short of money?
Let’s not talk about those who are far away, but just say that the immediate boss, Captain Xu, doesn’t want money for Browning around his waist!With that little military salary alone, can you buy famous watches and famous guns?

A little further away, let’s say that General Yang Sen Yang, who is serving as the confidant of our direct line, can make up a reinforced platoon with his wives, concubines and children.

At this moment, according to what the three company commanders said, the rest of Hunan beyond Changsha is poor, but don't underestimate these country gentlemen, good guys, they are all fat masters.

People like myself, even if they pay protection fees and support the Anti-Japanese War, they should all contribute a little.

Moreover, these squires are not honest people. Like the fat pig we ate today, if we were wandering in the village, we would have been arrested to support the war of resistance, but the whole camp can only eat meat once every seven days, and it is still the unbreakable smoke from it. Old bacon, no fat at all.Why?
Because the only ones who raised fat pigs in this country were these country gentry. As a result, when the army came, these gentry hid the grain early, and the fat pigs, chickens and ducks were sent to the mountains, looking like they were poor, and Li Chong took out the ocean. , the fat pig appeared, and it was not kind.

Li Chong frowned and asked, "Will you not be blamed by Shangfeng for doing this?"

As a result, the three company commanders laughed, patted their chests and said with certainty: "Not at all! At least in our Sichuan Army, there is absolutely no problem, so there is no need to worry."

The next three company commanders told Li Chong the "History of Glory".

I think that after the poorly equipped Sichuan army came out of Sichuan, the change of clothes promised by the chairman was released. When they arrived in Shanxi, they directly opened a warehouse and robbed Yan Laoxi's arsenal. library, and broke in."

The anxious commander of the war zone jumped to his feet and scolded the Sichuan army as a "bandit army".

Even the warehouse of the commander of the war zone was robbed, so why bother?
However, as an elite army, they should pay more attention to the key points, and their work cannot be as rough as that of bandits.

The three company commanders also have their own reasons for the behavior of getting stuck in an important place.

Officers and soldiers threw their heads and blood, shouldn't these rich and well-fed squires support the anti-Japanese war?
I don't eat for free, and I don't blink my eyes when I beat devils and bleed. Besides, the big guys are not afraid of death. What about local food?

Besides, the higher-ups also allow this kind of thing by default. If you stay in one place, you can eat in one place. This is the default practice.

At present, the three company commanders are constantly instilling in Li Chong the idea that he can start a side job by himself. After all, we are not the Central Army, so we don't need to hold ourselves back.

In the past few days, these three guys also saw that the new battalion commander has been here for more than ten days, and he has been leading troops for training in a regular manner. He has no intention of doing side jobs at all. Let's set up Li Chong's idea.

So Li Chong, who received orthodox education from the military academy, now has a new understanding.
