Expedition to Europe

The training schedule of the Sixth Regiment is very tight. From morning to night, the soldiers basically have no rest time.

After getting up every morning, the soldiers will run a five-kilometer run first, and then conduct individual skill training after breakfast. The content of the training will be adjusted at any time according to the progress. Sometimes it is formation training, sometimes it is physical training, sometimes it is live-fire shooting, and sometimes it is teamwork.

There are two hours of indoor activities after lunch. Generally, it is to organize the soldiers to learn languages, not only French, but also Chinese, or to organize the housework, or to learn gun maintenance knowledge. Try to arrange it as full as possible. In the afternoon, there is individual skill training again, and finally another five kilometers before going to bed.

After such a set, basically the soldiers have no energy to toss.

Qin Zhiyuan’s purpose of doing this is very clear, that is, to exhaust the soldiers’ physical strength as much as possible, so that the exhausted soldiers have no time to think about it. Objectively, high-intensity training can also keep the morale of the troops high.

Although the training was very intense, Qin Zhiyuan noticed that some officers and soldiers still had some spare energy.

This group of people was mainly composed of Hu Tingfeng's scouts, who often set out in the evening and returned in the early morning. When they went out, they were empty-handed except for the equipment on their bodies. When they came back, they always had large and small bags, and sometimes some people were even injured, which aroused Qin Zhiyuan's vigilance.

Before Qin Zhiyuan went to find Hu Tingfeng, one night, Hu Tingfeng took the initiative to come to Qin Zhiyuan to report on his work.

"Mr. Qin, are you still awake?" As the military chief, Qin Zhiyuan had his own office. Hu Tingfeng, carrying a backpack, looked around after entering the door and saying hello, his two small eyes rolling around, looking very wretched.

"Wait a little longer. Old Hu, I heard that your reconnaissance company has been living a good life recently." Qin Zhiyuan looked at the documents in his hand and responded casually.

Because of the expansion of the base, the reconnaissance company now has a lot more people, with more than 100 people, basically like a company. Hu Tingfeng and Jin Taihe's selection criteria are still so strange. There is no requirement for personal combat skills and team awareness. As long as they have a skill, it's fine. According to Hu Tingfeng, as long as skills exist, there must be a place where they can be used. Maybe they will play a surprising and critical role at any time.

"Hey, Mr. Qin, we brothers have made a lot of good things recently. Don't forget the well digger when you drink water. Brothers, I recommend me, Old Hu, to pick the best and send it to you." After Hu Tingfeng finished speaking, he respectfully placed the backpack on the table in front of Qin Zhiyuan.

The backpack fell to the ground, and the sound was quite heavy. From the sound, the things inside were not light.

"What?" Qin Zhiyuan was quite curious.

Hu Tingfeng smiled and didn't say anything. He started to take things out. Wristwatch, pure gold, with diamonds on the dial, 2 pieces. Pocket watch, the case is made of gemstones, the bracelet is pure gold, because the dial is not opened, you can't see if it is inlaid with diamonds. I think it would be embarrassing to take it out if it is not inlaid with diamonds, five yuan. Rings, all with gemstone faces as big as pigeon eggs, pure gold plating, too embarrassed to show to others, a small pile. Necklaces, all with gemstone pendants or diamond pendants, Qin Zhiyuan noticed that the largest ruby ​​was almost as big as the dial of a watch, and if the chain was longer, it could be used as a meteor hammer, a large pile.

Gems and diamonds of various colors soon filled up half of the table, shining brightly and glamorously under the light.

"Where did they come from?"

The thing Qin Zhiyuan was most worried about finally happened.

Come to think of it, a group of warriors, none of them were quiet, it would be strange if they didn't cause trouble when they got together.

"You were away a while ago. One time, the Germans came over in the middle of the night and wiped out a French patrol team. When the French found out, the patrol team had been stripped of all their valuables. I thought, wow, can you make money like this? So I took a few people with me at night and went to the Germans..." Hu Tingfeng didn't finish his words. I think he found that this business was quite profitable, so he couldn't stop.

Fortunately, fortunately, it's not the worst situation, as long as it's not robbing the French.

"How did you get through at night? Isn't there a minefield in the no-man's land in the middle?" Qin Zhiyuan didn't care much about how to make money after getting through, but how to get through. Based on his intuition, Qin Zhiyuan felt that there was an opportunity here.

"There is a minefield, but the people who shoot guns and set off cannons all day have almost blown it up. Be careful and it's okay. If the Germans can get through, we can get through." Hu Tingfeng was limited after all. He only saw the opportunity to make money here, but didn't find the opportunity to fight here.

The area between the French and German trenches was figuratively called "no man's land" by both sides, meaning that no one could survive there. In order to prevent sneak attacks from the other side, both warring parties buried a large number of mines in the no man's land, forming a series of intricate minefields. There are passages between these minefields to facilitate their own people to enter and exit. As long as they are careful, they can still find safe passages.

"How many people do you usually send out?" Qin Zhiyuan calculated in his mind for a while and began to ask in detail.

"Usually, one platoon is sent out every day. Sometimes three platoons act separately, one squad is responsible for the action, and two squads are responsible for the response. It's about ten kilometers back and forth, and it takes five or six hours to get it done, so it doesn't delay coming back to take a nap." Hu Tingfeng said it easily, and it seems that he is indeed a veteran.

Europe basically has no concept of four seasons. Winter is very hard to endure. It gets dark after 4pm and gets light at 8am. The daily sunlight time is only two or three hours at noon. No wonder Europeans go around the world to bask in the sun whenever they have the chance. They really appreciate it.

In summer, it will be the other way around. It gets dark at 11pm and gets light just after the roosters crow twice in the early morning. Now you know why Europeans invented the word "ghost town". It is a true portrayal of their country. Think about it, the sun is shining in the sky, people are still asleep, and there is no one in the streets. What else can it be but a "ghost town"?

"If you are asked to lead a company or a battalion at one time, are you sure?" Qin Zhiyuan wants to play big. It is boring to eat up patrol teams. Wouldn't it be more to capture more by breaking through a position at one time?

"One company is fine, but a battalion... I haven't tried it. Too many people can easily cause trouble. We have a battalion with nearly a thousand people. When we walk, we can alarm the Germans. It's very difficult to sneak through without anyone noticing." Hu Tingfeng twirled his beard and smacked it. It sounded really difficult.

"So, in the next few days, you should focus on determining the safe passage. If you are really unsure, contact Dali and ask him to bomb it with artillery to determine a safe passage. In this way, even if we can't sneak through, it will be a victory if we can rush to the German position before the Germans enter the position." Qin Zhiyuan made a compromise request.

"Okay, I'll try!" Hu Tingfeng nodded in agreement. He didn't feel bad because of the loss of money. During this period, his reconnaissance company had been well fed.
