The country is broken

All the soldiers remained silent, their faces were wiped off after the battle, and it became increasingly difficult to recognize who was who! ~

I saw Li Wei nodding his head thoughtfully.

"I!" A soldier beside the fire stood up obediently with his head down. He thought that he had used too much force and made the foreign reporter take revenge.

"!"

In Chinese and English, it seems that this word alone does not need to be translated, not only the pronunciation is the same, but the meaning is the same. [

"What's your name!?" Murdoch Washington looked up and down this thin fighter curiously. He really couldn't believe that this person whose height and weight were completely smaller than himself could burst out with such huge strength.

"My name is Ding Shitou!" The soldier looked a little nervous in front of foreigners whose hair and skin color were different from those he had seen before.

stone?Stone! ?Another homonym!

Ta Kung Pao female reporter Jasmine looked a little funny.

"Stone?!" Murdoch barely understood the soldier's words, and said with a somewhat incredible expression: "Oh! ~God praises you, you are indeed Mr. Stone, your strength is really great, I bet , the strength of a bull may not be stronger than you, although I still look like I'm falling apart, but I still have to thank you! Otherwise, I would have gone to see God by now."

In view of the fact that the current number of troops of the [-]th District Team is not suitable for large-scale corps operations, in order to achieve local advantages through the policy of elite soldiers, all the soldiers of the [-]th District Team are strictly selected on the basis of the vast population resources in the base area of ​​the [-]th District Team The elite soldiers, the fourth company and the fifth company are the elite among the elite, the selection requirements are extremely strict, and every soldier has a good ability.

Seeing the bewildered face of the soldier named Ding Shitou, the interpreter found out that the soldier could not understand English at all, and quickly translated Murdoch's words.

Li Wei and Fan Guowen covered their mouths and laughed secretly.Those soldiers only know a few simple English dialogues and words at most, and it is already unexpected that they can match a few sentences with a blind cat like Ding Shitou. It is strange that the soldiers can understand.

"This, this?!" Only then did Ding Shitou understand that the foreigner was praising him, and then he touched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "This, this is what it should be!~" After all, he can't be like Li Wei and Fan. Two people in Chinese can have a better English learning environment, and they can only speak Chinese!

This made the five reporters understand that the English proficiency of these soldiers was not as high as they had imagined, and it seemed that only a few were proficient in it. They were relieved, and felt that they had overestimated the cultural level of these two companies.

"Very good!~Young man!~" Murdoch took out a pen from his pocket, stuffed it into the soldier's hand, and said, "This is for you, as my thanks, Pike's!"

Ding Shitou looked at a loss, with a cold and smooth pen body. In the base area, the pen itself is a very rare thing, representing the symbol of intellectuals.How can it be a big boss who went to the battlefield to fight to death, not to mention a foreign pen, which is enough to make his whole life and future generations worth showing off, which makes him feel too precious, and it is not acceptable to accept it No charge is not.

Among the souvenirs given by foreigners to Chinese soldiers and civilians in base areas where resources are scarce, fountain pens are considered an extremely valuable gift.

"Take it!~" Li Wei explained the soldier's embarrassment. According to the customs of foreigners, not accepting gifts is a sign of disrespect to others. Anyway, it is not free.

"Thank you!~" With the permission of Company Commander Li Wei, this honest soldier can still speak English. Ding Shitou bowed and accepted the pen, and excitedly held the pen in his hand and rubbed it again and again, full of joy Putting it preciously and heavily into his small satchel, it made the surrounding soldiers jealous. On the battlefield, using foreigners as meat pads, and even blackmailing them for a pen, there is nothing more cost-effective than this in the world. bought and sold.

"Hehe!~" Murdoch also smiled happily.A pen for one's own life, can also shorten the distance between the two sides, and facilitate future interviews, which is really worth it.

The others also looked at this simple warrior with a smile on their faces,

"Company Commander Li Wei! ~ Excuse me, why do your soldiers know some English? As we all know, not many soldiers can even read." Ta Kung Pao reporter Jasmine took advantage of the smile on Li Wei's face, and immediately wanted to catch this. Opportunity strikes while the iron is hot.

"Well, people have always thought that good iron doesn't make nails, good men don't serve as soldiers, and eating soldiers' rations is the way out. As long as you can bravely kill the enemy on the battlefield, you don't need to be educated. In fact, this is all Wrong thinking!" Li Wei was in the right mood, so he relaxed his tone, saying: "In future wars, we will fight for culture and fight for technology. How can we do without literacy? When we encounter new weapons, we can't understand how to use them. If you don't understand the enemy's intelligence, don't know how to analyze the weakness of the enemy's new weapons, if you fall behind, you will be beaten. Therefore, it is necessary to learn culture. If you can afford a gun, you can shoot it accurately. Airplanes can go to the sky, and ships can sail long distances. Words are a necessary learning medium. Some things can’t be learned by dictation. If you can’t read words, you can only stare blankly at the operation panels of various equipment It will be limited to the primitive and backward way of warfare. Hundreds of years ago, we could still use swords and spears, and now we can still use guns and cannons. In the future, facing the enemy's planes and tanks, we will be blind if we are uneducated. The soldiers under him are all elites who have been honed through hundreds of battles, and they are the backbone of the future army, not cannon fodder.”[

"In our district team, every soldier must be able to speak and write. This is the minimum standard. I just want to change the old stereotypes. As a professional soldier, a soldier is an educated soldier. , our district teams don’t want all of them.” Company Commander Li Wei said this grandly, the [-]th district team’s policy of elite soldiers strictly controls the number of troops in the district team through cultural restrictions. Based on the current militia of the [-]th district team, it is easy to expand the main force of the district team into a regiment and a brigade at any time.

The military concept based on modern people's almost common sense is decades ahead of this era anyway, and history has proved this point in fact.

"Then the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in your district team is because their cultural level is higher than that of ordinary troops?!" Li Wei's subversive ideas that are different from ordinary people made Ta Kung Pao female reporter Jasmine feel fresh, and even the news editor of Central Daily was also very supportive. Lifting one ear, the fighting power of this unit in the daytime battle is really impressive.

Li Wei patted his thigh and said: "That's natural. If you can read well, you can read and understand books first, and you can find the knowledge you need at any time. It's not like everyone can just find someone to pester you all day long. Specialization, it is impossible to have so many people, so much time and energy to deal with so many soldiers seeking knowledge and answers. The peasants in the past were always beaten to death by those illiterate landlords and Lao Cai because they did not know a single character, while the soldiers If you learn more, your horizons will open, you will learn more, and you will have more solutions when you encounter facts. If you have more ghost ideas in your mind, you will be more sinister!? People say that three cobblers are the best of Zhuge Liang, The people in our army are much better than the three cobblers in terms of quality and quantity, and we don’t know who is afraid of whom when we start a war.”

"It makes sense, it makes sense!~Then how do you teach those soldiers cultural lessons? You still have a school here?!" Female reporter Jasmine nodded as she listened. Li Wei's words touched her a lot. In my understanding, the soldiers in the army are not vulgar, uneducated, and of low quality.Today, not only what she actually saw on the battlefield but also what Li Wei said made her feel that this army with considerable cultural quality was very different from the general army in its bones. Especially made her feel like she had never seen before.

"Is there an open night school? A few educated people in the district team compile teaching materials together, and classify the content of cultural lessons step by step, putting practicality first. There are no such things as the Analects of Confucius, Hundred Surnames and Three Character Classics, and all are taught. Useful things, such as physics, history, chemistry, mathematics, and nature, are taught in turn every night, and anyone can come to listen. Those who listen will teach others. One will lead ten, and ten will lead hundreds. , It’s not difficult, as long as you put your heart into it, you’re afraid you won’t be able to learn it?!” These are all public information, and Li Wei didn’t intend to hide them. The things in the night school are all classified in a modern way, and the thinking is clear.Compiling these textbooks is really not a difficult task. The things taught are compact, and the soldiers learn hard. The progress is much faster than in modern schools. The things taught in one day are almost equivalent to half a month in modern schools. After the turn, many fighters can be guest lecturers and lead others.

"Open night school!~" Female reporter Moli's eyes lit up. She thought she was an old man who invited a private school, but she didn't expect the [-]th district team to go one step further and directly realize an open learning environment of Western modernization or even further.

"Hmph!~ Can you learn something even if you forget what your ancestors learned?! These are only those soldiers who can learn, just a tributary skill. Self-cultivation, family governance, and world peace depend on what your ancestors learned." The editor of Zhongyang Daily, who received traditional Chinese education, obviously disagreed with Li Wei's statement, and expressed his disapproval.

"Ancestor's stuff?! Haha!~" Li Wei patted his thigh and wanted to laugh out loud, but others may not know what Central Daily is, but Li Wei knew it very well, and he laughed with a hint of sarcasm After a few beeps, his eyes shifted to Editor Wen, staring at Editor Wen uncomfortable, Li Wei said in a deep voice: "Forty million Chinese, there must be a lot of people who have learned things from their ancestors well? Think about it before. Qing! It’s land cession and compensation. Didn’t you learn what your ancestors learned?! Why did you learn what your ancestors learned well, lost the three eastern provinces, and let the Japanese occupy half of the country? Give it to the invaders, put your own people under the butcher's knife of the Japanese invaders?! I'm holding on to the things of my ancestors?! For hundreds of years, I have learned everything wrong! Bullshit stereotypes, can I eat?! Can I be a soldier? ?! Can it turn into a plane cannon?! Why don't you use a book as a cover to smash the enemy to death?!"

"Nonsense! The way of Confucius and Mencius is incomprehensible to a vulgar soldier like you." Editor Wen's face changed color as he pointed at Li Weidao like a rat whose tail had been lit by gasoline.

"The army is vulgar?! Hmph, when the Japanese samurai sword cuts your neck, can you expect Confucius and Mencius to jump out of the grave to save you?! Are you thinking that our so-called vulgar army will block the knife for you? ?! Okay! If you look down on soldiers, then you can go to the devil’s gun tower to gamble on the bullet holes. In the diplomacy between countries these days, the fist is the boss. You can use your three-inch tongue Let the Japanese retreat and surrender? You are stupid! ~ You can win the war by writing two articles just by playing tricks, so why do you need guns?! China’s [-] million population has already conquered the world, you go with the man-eating tiger Talk about subduing the tiger with virtue! If the Japanese also respect the laws of their ancestors and the way of Confucius and Mencius, then the Japanese devils who invaded China should have the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Songs in their hands, not foreign guns and cannons." Li Wei looked at it disdainfully. He took a look at Xiaobai, who was stunned by Confucianism.

Being refuted by Li Wei with a gun and a stick, Editor Wen almost trembled and couldn't finish his sentence, pointing at Li Wei and said: "You, you, are really insulting to gentlemen, and you have to work hard first. Its muscles and bones, its body and skin are hungry, and the sufferings that China is suffering now are all God's will! Time, luck, and fate!"

Puchi! ~Jasmine, the female reporter, laughed aloud at the rebuttal of her colleague from Central Daily. The eloquence of the commander of the fourth company really gave her a good breath of anger.

"God's will?! Surrendering the Japanese to be a traitor is God's will?! This traitor is still justified?! That's fine! I slap you, this is also God's will, come on, stretch your face over, accept your fate! Damn, it's okay to give you a shot God's will, what a madman!~" Li Wei fought back against Editor Wen's almost mentally handicapped strength, and without hesitation, he slammed the stick to the end.

Talking with Li Wei, who has the most ghosts in the [-]th district, is because people in the base area admit that they are uncomfortable with themselves. When it comes to using sinister and vicious words, modern people almost seem simple in front of the battle-hardened modern people. cute.

"Hehe!~"

"Hahaha!~"

The translator at the side translated almost every word Li Wei and Editor Wen said to the three foreign reporters, causing the three reporters to stagger from laughter.

"Ha, Mr. Li, you're so cute!~" Mi Luni, a beautiful blonde reporter from the Associated Press, laughed wildly, and many words made her want to laugh out loud.

"You, you!~You!" Editor Wen's face turned from red to white, from white to blue, from blue to yellow, and the old face who was almost turning into a traffic light was so angry that he couldn't speak a word.
