Bright Sword: Infinite Logistics

Chapter 7 Speech at the entrance of the village
At five o'clock in the morning, as the wake-up call sounded, the whole village quickly regained its vitality.The soldiers got up and started a new day of training.

Meng Zhige did not sleep in. He also got up following the sound of the bugle, rubbed his eyes, put on his clothes and walked out of the house.It has been two months since he traveled back in time, and his work and rest schedule has long since changed.There was no Internet or TV in this place, and he was not assigned any work, so naturally he would not choose to stay up late.

But Meng Zhige was not a soldier after all. Although he also got up to listen to the wake-up call, by the time he walked out of the house, whistles and footsteps had already sounded, as if urging him.

"Tiger."

"Mr. Meng." Zhao Hu trotted up to Meng Zhige from a short distance away.

"What do you usually do in the morning?" Meng Zhige asked while arranging his clothes.

It's still the same as yesterday. It was placed next to the pillow when I slept, so it has some wrinkles.There was a huge gap between the rural areas of this era and those of later generations, especially in terms of sanitary conditions.The combat situation behind enemy lines is also unstable, and it is impossible to change clothes every day.What should be done must still be done.

Huzi thought for a while: "In morning exercises, I usually stand in line with a gun on my shoulder. Sometimes there is a competition to capture the mountain and capture the flag. The most tiring part is the armed march. You have to bring the gun and bullets, and carry the backpack and run for more than ten or twenty miles. .”

The two of them walked to the entrance of the village as they spoke.In front of the millstone at the entrance of the village, the soldiers were divided into two groups and stood in a neat queue.Meng Zhige looked at it and quickly calculated the number of people in his mind.

"Huzi, why are there more than 160 people in one group and 140 in another group?"

Huzi looked at it and replied: "The 140 people are the new recruits brought by the regiment leader yesterday. The other group is the troops directly under the regiment, the special agent company, the guard platoon, and the communication platoon. We fought with the Japanese two days ago. At the scene, some comrades died before we had time to replenish our supplies.”

Meng Zhige nodded to express understanding, then looked at the two neat square formations, quietly waiting for the drill to begin.

However, the drill did not wait until the two company commanders checked the queue and led a group of commanders to the front of the queue.More than a minute later, Li Yunlong, the new leader, appeared in front of everyone. He strode to the front and won the C position.

Meng Zhige's eyes lit up instantly, the tiredness from getting up early was swept away, and his whole body became energetic.I thought what I saw this morning would be an ordinary drill, but I didn't expect to see a big show.Judging from Li Yunlong's posture, he was planning to give a speech in front of the whole village.

Meng Zhige couldn't help but think of the famous scene in the TV series where Li Yunlong gave a speech in front of the soldiers.

The soldier asked Li Yunlong whether the boss always called the independent regiment a fool and how many battles we had won before.Li Yunlong first admitted the fact that he lost the battle and believed that he deserved to be scolded for losing the battle.Then he changed the topic and talked about his favorite animal - wolf.With the goal of a wild wolf group, the hat of dough was knocked off and the fighting spirit of the soldiers was rekindled.

I don’t know if the effect of Li Yunlong’s speech in Xinyi Tuan this time can be as good as in the TV series.

Just when Meng Zhige was lost in memories, Li Yunlong's voice had already sounded: "Comrades, I am your new regiment leader, Li Yunlong!"

Li Yunlong has a loud voice, and his voice is louder than expected.In the open environment at the entrance of the village, separated by three hundred soldiers, Meng Zhige could still hear clearly what he was saying.

"I know that many of you don't welcome me. You prefer Commander Ding. Old Ding has led the New Regiment for almost a year. When he first came, the New Regiment lacked men, guns and combat experience. Fighting against the Japanese always suffered losses. As a result, a year later, the new regiment became a large regiment with more than 800 people. Not only did machine guns spread to the company, but even a mortar was obtained. The troops were pulled out , let people who don’t know see it, they think we are the 250nd Regiment!” “Not only are the equipment beautiful, but the battle is also beautiful! Our new regiment will fight in Xiangchenggu for a long time, and who can we fight with? It’s all about saving face! [-] Japanese soldiers and eight cars were killed as soon as they were told, and even three mountain cannons were brought back! The people in the artillery regiment can raise their tails when they see everyone, but our regiment can’t be proud when they see it! The boss and The division commander has praised our regiment and said we are a model regiment!"

This is the honor and pride of the new regiment and a symbol of glory.When Li Yunlong said this, all the soldiers raised their heads and chests, and even the new recruit company was infected by the atmosphere.

"However, this time we suffered a big loss at the hands of the Japanese! Old Ding died, and Lao Cheng and Deputy Commander Wei were also injured and sent to the field hospital. We still don't know whether they woke up or not. In addition, In addition, 170 three comrades died. When they were buried, we didn’t even have enough wooden boards! We could only wrap them with cloth and bury them!”

All heads lowered.

"In [-], when Lao Ding was the first battalion commander of the [-]nd Regiment, I was also in the [-]nd Regiment. Going forward, we were all old comrades in the Fourth Front Army. I know you feel uncomfortable, but I feel even more uncomfortable!"

Li Yunlong roared out these words, like a wounded beast, showing its fangs to the enemy.

"I, Li Yunlong, can't bear this hatred! Are you willing to bear it?"

In response to Li Yunlong, hundreds of people roared in unison: "I don't want to!"

"Don't want to? That's good! From today on, everyone must train seriously, improve your physical fitness, and clean your guns! From today on, I will let the devils and puppet soldiers know that they have provoked a new group of me. , just for provoking the Lord of Hell! Remember, as long as our group meets the Japanese, it is time for revenge!"

Meng Zhige saw the reactions of the soldiers. Many of them raised their heads again, breathing heavily, their faces flushed, and they looked excited.Meng Zhige even felt a strong murderous aura from their bodies.

Revenge is indeed a good way to keep people motivated to fight.While Li Yunlong talked about his comrades-in-arms with Captain Ding, he also expressed his hatred for the Japanese, which invisibly brought him and the soldiers closer together, and then proposed the common goal of everyone - revenge.

From this moment on, the new group became a whole again, and Li Yunlong's position as group leader was officially secured.

"Li Yunlong's speech skills are really incredible. He was great in the TV series, and he is also great here. But..." Meng Zhige lowered his head.

170 Three people were killed in battle, and there were not even enough boards for burial. This was the premise of this revenge.

There are bound to be sacrifices in war, and the Eighth Route Army's equipment is still at a disadvantage, so such casualties are inevitable.Meng Zhige understood these truths, and he could easily find larger numbers representing sacrifices in history books.

But after actually coming into contact with these real people, the dry numbers in those books have turned into strange or familiar faces, and turned into sharp daggers, which made Meng Zhige's heart towards The number's numb heart felt the pain again.
