As for the process of a detachment going to ambush the Japanese reinforcements, Zhou Wen originally just wanted to briefly introduce the general situation to Meng Yuting and the others.
Just kidding, with the fighting ability of the brothers in the current squadron, who ambushed and attacked by surprise, why would they bother to deal with dozens of Japanese troops?
You must know that during the Central Plains War, they had not yet reached their current combat capabilities, and they did not have such sophisticated equipment now. They were equally prepared and unprepared. With only forty people, they almost defeated hundreds of the most elite cavalry of the Northwest Army.
His entire army was wiped out, but he was still unscathed.
In fact, officers like Meng Yuting and others also knew that with the dozens of special forces that Zhou Wen called in the current detachment, it was really killing a chicken with a sledgehammer to deal with the Japanese army of less than a hundred people.
From the purely military perspective of the officers of the Second Squadron, this elite small force of the First Squadron has no shortcomings at present. It is equipped with the most advanced individual weapons in the world, and can fight at any distance within a one kilometer combat range.
It can deal a fatal blow to any enemy, and it has bulletproof alloy steel plates to ensure its own protection.
His tactical abilities are quite rich, and his long-distance strikes are accurate and invincible. He can also find no equal number of opponents in melee combat. He is proficient in assault, ambush, sneak attack, penetration, lurking, reconnaissance, and other tactics.
With superhuman physique, superhuman martial arts, superhuman military skills, and rich combat experience. Meng Yuting and the others really couldn't think of any other army in the world that could defeat them with the same number of people.
But they still wanted to listen to Zhou Wen's detailed account, not just to enjoy the story, but mainly because they wanted to know more about the combat effectiveness and tactics of this team. Only by understanding deeply can they know how to cooperate and collaborate better in the future.
Because everyone in the mercenary group clearly understands the truth. Whether the fifty members of the first team are called special forces or kings of soldiers, they are the core strength of this mercenary group. They are the core strength of this mercenary group.
The real backbone of the mercenary group.
Without the existence of the first detachment, no matter how well trained or equipped the more than a thousand people in the second detachment are, they will at best be nothing more than an elite unit with greater combat effectiveness than the average army.
Just with these more than a thousand elites, do you want to form your own group? Do you want to be able to deal with various forces and still feel comfortable? Do you want to have autonomy and choice on the battlefield? Do you want the King of Shanxi to hold your nose and let you do it?
Dominating a county? Do you want the Northwest King to hand over the military talents he has worked so hard to cultivate? Do you want several of the top wealthy families in the country to cry and clamor to cooperate with you?
If you think this way, you can only use an old saying that has never changed to describe it: you are dreaming!
Don't say that you are an elite with more than a thousand people, but you are the commander of the Northwest Army, which once had hundreds of thousands and was known as the most powerful army of the Republic of China. You don't know what the situation is now?
Maybe some people will say, can't I select dozens of elites from the more than a thousand good seedlings of the second team and train them again?
Haha! That can only mean that you are overthinking.
You must know that these dozens of brothers in the first team have been following Zhou Wen since they were in the security company of Dawangzhuang. They are all teenagers and the same age. They have followed Zhou Wen through wind and rain for several years and have experienced countless battles and hardships. Everyone has grown up together.
We relied on each other to get to where we are today.
The feelings, dependence, trust, tacit understanding, etc. developed during this period are not something that ordinary people can understand and achieve.
What's more, Zhou Wen had no worries, no power and no wealth at that time. He had plenty of time and patience to train and cultivate various skills of his brothers. He worked hard with his brothers every day, teaching by words and deeds, and using Prajna in addition to training.
Massage one by one. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a lot of hard work and hard work.
Now it is impossible for Zhou Wen to have so much time and energy to train such a group of people from scratch.
A huge industry needs to be managed, official entertainment needs to be maintained, walking a tightrope between various forces needs to be balanced, and the development of the team needs to be worried about. More importantly, the 14-year war of resistance has begun, and he has more issues to consider.
It is no longer the time for Zhou Wen, the current head of the family, to take risks just for the sake of thousands of dollars and a few broken guns a few years ago, and lead a group of young brothers to go out and eat evil.
Boss Zhou, who already has a net worth of tens of millions, will not even take a look at you if you tell him about a business worth tens of millions.
Tell me how Zhou Wen now has the time and energy to train a group of subordinates with the same combat power as the first team, deep feelings, close teamwork and loyalty.
Therefore, the situation of a squadron cannot be replicated. Smart people can understand these things at a glance, so Marshal Yan did not force Zhou Wen to help him train such a troop.
Meng Yuting and other officers who joined later were all smart people, so they all understood this principle, so they all knew their position clearly.
Even though Zhou Wen had great trust in them, treated them equally with the officers of the First Division, and even gave up the battlefield command rights, in Zhou Wen's heart, the dozens of brothers in the First Division were Zhou Wen's family members.
To use a bad word to describe it, the first team is Zhou Wen's main house, and the second team is the side house. Although Zhou Wen is grand, the treatment and attention of the two teams are equal to each other, but if you can't distinguish the priority,
Then it's best to get out of here and leave this team.
Just like those wealthy families in this era, no matter how favored you are as a concubine, if you get carried away and lose your sense of proportion and compete for power with the wife of the principal wife, hehe... don't end up too miserable.
That's why Meng Yuting and the others wanted to have a deeper understanding of the true combat power and battlefield performance of the first team. If possible, Meng Yuting even wanted to follow the first team in the next battle and see with his own eyes the true appearance of this unit.
After all, performance on the training ground and performance on the battlefield are two different things. The status of the first detachment has been elevated to the strategic unit of the mercenary group, while the second detachment is only a tactical unit, and tactics must ultimately serve strategy.
Zhou Wen already understood what Meng Yuting and the others were thinking, and when he was pleased, he recounted the battle...
Time went back to midnight last night. After Zhou Wen took the first team to say goodbye to the second team, he took advantage of the darkness to arrive at an area about one kilometer away from the reed marsh and began to set up an ambush.
Setting up an ambush is something that the brothers are already familiar with. Without Zhou Wen explaining it in detail, each group naturally found a suitable terrain and started digging various shooting positions.
Zhou Wen is very excited now, and so are his brothers. Although everyone strictly abides by the discipline of lurking and does not speak, everyone's eyes show excitement and joy.
