Chapter 105 Herdsman Militia
Pick up the noodles, pour the marinated tomatoes on it, and Master Wu cut up a large plate of yak meat, "Paichang Lin, the meat of this yak meat is relatively hard, but it tastes good, although it is not as good as beef, but our place There is a lot of storage, and it can be managed.”

"And when I was sorting out the supplies just now, I found that the regiment headquarters had ordered a lot of extra supplies for us, probably thanks to the blessing of Platoon Leader Lin. That yak leg weighed more than ten kilograms, enough for us to have a good meal at night. "

Squad Leader 8 smiled and said, "It must be thanks to Platoon Leader Lin. After all, he is an officer, and his superiors are not allowed to say so."

Then he looked at Lin Yi, "Do you want garlic? I'll peel two cloves for you."

Lin Yi was stunned when he heard the words 'do you want garlic', it was the first time he heard such words in the army for so long.

Usually when you eat in the army, how can there be raw garlic for you to eat? It’s not that there is a lack of this thing, but that the four dishes and one soup are so rich, why eat garlic when you have nothing to do?
Seeing that Lin Yi didn't speak, squad leader 8 reached out and took out a head from the vegetable shelf, "Eat some, it's sterilized with raw garlic, it's not bad."

After speaking, he peeled it for Lin Yi. Lin Yi took the noodles, added a little chili oil and vinegar, and mixed it a little, and the taste came up.

Squad 8 also peeled several cloves of garlic and handed them to Lin Yi, "Our outpost is different from ordinary troops. There are no four dishes and one soup for meals. Usually, there are two dishes for a meal. After all, there are too few manpower and few pots. You have to get over it."

Lin Yi is not picky about food, the two dishes are of the standard of an ordinary family, and they are hearty enough.

"Squad leader 8, don't think of me too delicately, I will eat whatever you eat."

Master Wu said at this time: "Platoon Leader Lin, if you are hungry at night, please greet me at any time, and I promise to make supper for you as soon as possible."

Lin Yi smiled, "Don't, three meals a day is enough. Besides, if you're really hungry, I'll just order a bowl of noodles by myself. You've been busy all day, so you can't sleep well at night."

At this moment, the duty room on the second floor shouted: "There are people outside the post."

As soon as several reserve staff heard this, they rushed out with their guns on their backs.

Lin Yi stood up immediately when she heard the movement, but the squad leader of No. 8 was not surprised, "It's probably the herdsman militia, who came to say hello."

Sure enough, after a while, a burst of laughter came into the outpost, and he said as he walked, "grazing in this weather is really fatal. If it weren't for the snowstorm, there would be no fodder to eat, and I wouldn't come out to graze."

Class 8 shouted: "Friend, have you eaten yet?"

The herdsman stood at the door of the kitchen and did not come in. "I have some dry food. Haven't you eaten yet?"

Suddenly the herdsman saw Lin Yi's military rank and stood at attention to salute, "Hi, sir."

In terms of politeness and etiquette, the militiamen are really no worse than the soldiers in the army. Not to mention too much, whenever they see patrol police cars or military vehicles, whether they are leaders or not, the militiamen will stand at attention and salute.

Lin Yi also stood up and returned the salute, and then asked, "Come to have some food, fellow?"

Squad 8 quickly interrupted, "This is our platoon leader Lin, who is in charge of our 8th squad, let's go, let's sit and talk at the gate."

Master Wu whispered, "They don't eat our food, and they don't enter our restaurant."

Oh, Lin Yi suddenly remembered that they might be from ethnic minorities, and nodded quickly, "Okay, then close the restaurant door, I'm really hungry, I'll eat a couple of bites and go out."

Squad leader 8 is very familiar with the herdsmen. It seems that he will come here to herd herds from time to time.

Master Wu introduced: "He is a herdsman militiaman of the border defense brigade below, not a basic militiaman, so his attire is not so formal, and he does not carry weapons. They herd very simply. , I’m rushing back at night.”

Usually, when passing by our Class 8, they would come to take a seat, but only near the gate, and other places are not allowed.

Lin Yi was a little surprised, "Aren't you one of us, and you still take such strict precautions?"

Master Wu smiled and said: "It's not strict, it's just that there are rules. Besides, even if soldiers from other classes come, they just sit at the gate post, at most they come to the restaurant to drink two cups of hot water, and they won't mess around. "

"Besides, our door post is so big, there are chairs, and there are backup staff sitting there chatting with him, so he's not lonely."

Lin Yi thinks about it, the outpost is so big, except for the two dormitories, it is the bathroom for washing, or the leadership room, the meeting room, the armory and other places, these are indeed more private places.

Only the gate post is more spacious, and there are chairs to sit on.

After finishing the noodles, Lin Yi went out of the restaurant and looked at the No. 8 squad leader, "Go back to eat quickly, I will chat with our herdsmen comrades for a while."

Squad leader No. 8 nodded, and then looked at the herdsmen, "Platoon leader Lin will be the leader of our outpost for the next three months. If you encounter any situation, come to him for help immediately."

The herdsman took out the walkie-talkie, "If there is any problem, I can just contact our border defense team, and our basic militia will provide support soon."

When it comes to the basic militia, Lin Yi has heard about it. It seems that our People's Liberation Army is not the only guard here. I think there are also many militia troops participating in the defense.

At this time, the deputy squad leader walked in and said: "Platoon Leader Lin, you just came here. You don't know about us. The militia guards the second and third lines of defense, while we guard the first line of defense. When you came , if you pay a little attention, when you pass the second squad post, you can see the road going down, and that road is the militia duty station."

Some of our squads and militia duty stations can be seen at a glance, and they are only separated by one or two kilometers at most.

Their technology is more advanced than ours, and all the checkpoints along the way, and the surveillance cameras all over the mountains and plains, are all their people.However, they cooperate with the border police station, so they have more dealings with ordinary people.

Oh I got it.Lin Yi nodded, "Then don't we usually meet with the militia?"

The deputy squad leader thought for a while, "Normally there is no intersection, unless there is a mission, they will come to assist us. But they are more inclined to internal. Think about it, they have a combat team of ten people, only two rifles, The rest are batons, shields, guns and smoke bombs, and this configuration can’t keep up with ours.”

"At least let's have a rifle in hand. You are an officer and you can also be equipped with a pistol."

Hearing this, the herdsman explained, "According to what you said, the division of labor is different. Why do we need so many guns internally? It can only serve as a deterrent. It will be easier to use batons, shields and tear gas."

Lin Yi nodded, "Brother Herdsman is right. Different divisions of labor lead to different weapon configurations. It's not just that stronger firepower is more powerful. As far as I know, half of the militia team are our veterans. In terms of combat effectiveness In other words, he is not necessarily weaker than us."

The deputy squad leader agreed, "That's true."
