After Zhou Wen sent the team members out, he felt relieved. It was only March 2nd. Under the radio and the hawk-like eyes of the brothers, it was discovered that the Japanese attack force was not a small team of dozens of people after all, but at least a few.
It was only a matter of time before a large team of a hundred people were discovered.
Zhou Wen thought that there was nothing to do now, so he took Miaohua, Gao Xiaoshan and Zhao Xiaojin and several officers to inspect the camp. Along the way, he explained to senior brother Zhao Xiaojin the rules and principles of various deployments in the camp, even if Zhao Xiaojin would lead troops in the future.
The possibility of fighting is unlikely, but you still need to have these basic military common sense for setting up camp.
You must know that from a military point of view, the layout of marching camps of armies of various countries is basically the same. Generally speaking, combat troops must be deployed around the military camp, with headquarters and logistics troops in the middle. Observation posts must be set up on the surrounding highlands.
and machine gun positions, and defensive positions need to be dug outside the military camp.
Let Zhao Xiaojin, the newly joined master, familiarize himself with the layout of the camp so that he can know the entire layout of the enemy's army when conducting reconnaissance and raids on enemy camps in the future.
With that said, several people came to the headquarters tent set up by Chen Wanli. They saw several long antennas protruding from the top of the large marching tent. Then they heard the sound of sneezing coming from the tent. Zhou Wen knew it as soon as he heard it.
It was Zhou Yongbin. I was worried about his physical condition, so I walked in directly.
In order to facilitate command and observe the surrounding situation at any time, the general headquarters will be established high in the camp.
This time, in order to capture the Japanese radio signal more clearly, Chen Wanli set up his headquarters on the top of the mountain behind the village. At this time, the cold wind in winter had not weakened at all, and it was even more biting when it reached the top of the mountain.
Even in the tent, you can feel the cold air blowing from the cracks and doorways.
There were not many people in the tent at this time. Chen Wanli took the officers to inspect the camp. In the large tent, there were only a few communication soldiers with earphones standing in front of the radio receiver, while Zhou Yongbin was frozen and walked back and forth.
Seeing Zhou Yongbin wrapped in a thick military coat wiping his nose with a towel, Zhou Wen frowned and said: "Brother Zhou, didn't I tell you to go to the village to rest? We only need to arrange for people to be on duty 24 hours a day. If we detect enemy signals, we will inform you to come back again."
That’s it, you have a weak constitution and you will definitely get sick if you stay on the top of this mountain for a long time.”
In fact, the current communications platoon of the mercenary regiment, with more than 50 communications soldiers starting from the platoon leader Zhang Xinhe and below, has been regarded as a master of telecommunications under Zhou Yongbin's careful teaching in the past two years. He really does not need to personally capture the Japanese radio signal.
To guard, what he needs is to judge the enemy's position more accurately.
Zhou Yongbin smiled and said: "It's okay, I'm just going to stay for a while and then leave. It's too cold today. I want to see if it has any impact on the machine?"
At this moment, the tent door was opened again, and a gust of cold wind came in. Zhou Yongbin sneezed a few more times. Zhou Wen frowned and turned around to see, but it was the communications platoon leader Zhang Xinhe and a few soldiers carrying
Two braziers came in.
When Zhang Xinhe saw that Zhou Wen and several officers were there, he quickly put down the brazier and was about to salute. Zhou Wen waved his hand and said, "We have entered the front line now, so we don't need to salute."
After speaking, he looked at the brazier on the ground, his face softened, and he nodded: "You are still thoughtful and know how to get your teacher some warmth, but staying here is not an option, so let him go to the village to rest."
The officers and soldiers of the communications platoon consider themselves Zhou Yongbin's disciples, and everyone calls him teacher instead of official.
It should be said that Zhang Xinhe is now a veteran of the mercenary group. He was chosen by Zhou Wen to join the second team because he was able to read and calculate. Not only was he a talented person, he was already familiar with various instruments and equipment, and he was proficient in using them.
, and also managed the entire communication affairs of the second team in an orderly manner.
In fact, he is still less than twenty years old, a few months younger than Zhou Wendu.
Zhang Xinhe rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said: "Sir, you know my master's temper. We students can't disobey what he decides, right? If it weren't for the fact that firewood can't be burned in this tent, we would have let the master cook it long ago.
, it takes a lot of time to burn charcoal, and Deputy Platoon Leader Zhou is still burning it in the village later to ensure a continuous supply of energy."
Zhou Wenqi said: "You, the platoon leader and deputy platoon leader have gone to burn charcoal, who cares about the soldiers?"
Zhang Xinhe had a look of pride on his face when he heard this, and said loudly: "Report to the commander, the brothers are all veterans now. Under the training and guidance of the commander over the past few years, everyone in every class knows what to do."
What should be done in the situation, as you said, sir, has become a part of the machine. There is no need for the subordinates to say anything more. They will only report it if they encounter a situation that they cannot handle."
"Less than an hour after the camp was established, the communications platoon has connected all the telephone lines between the headquarters and each company. All radio stations have been installed and debugged. We are just waiting for your order to start working."
When Miaohua and Gao Xiaoshan heard this, they also had a look of relief on their faces, and were very satisfied with the performance of the second team. In the previous Songhu Anti-Japanese War, the second team was still a recruit who needed constant reminders and guidance. After more than a month of fighting,
After coming down, they have completed their transformation and become veritable veterans.
And the communications platoon belonging to the logistics department can do this to this extent, let alone other combat units.
Zhou Wen also nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that Zhang Xinhe's childishness had faded, but he still looked like a child who had done good things and was waiting for praise from his parents, he smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, the current communications platoon has basically reached my level."
The request shows that you are very qualified as a platoon leader, but our army is so large, I can't promote you to the rank."
Hearing Zhou Wen's joke, several people around him laughed. Zhang Xinhe was a little embarrassed, and said calmly with a red face: "I don't mean to ask for merit in my humble position. I just feel that serving as a soldier under you, sir, will make me happy."
Obviously, I feel at ease from the inside out. With your favor, my family will also enjoy the blessings. I just want to work with you for the rest of my life."
Zhou Wen smiled and said: "It's okay to follow me, but you have to remember that this is not a favor from me as a scholar. The care for your family and the military salary given to you are all earned by Zhang Xinhe's ability.
,keep it up!"
"yes!"
"Actually, teacher..."
When Zhang Xinhe said this, he looked at Zhou Yongbin's face, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Zhou Yongbin laughed and cursed with a runny nose: "Just say what you want to say, why are you hiding it in front of the scholar? Otherwise, he would think we have some conspiracy."
