After Pierre returned from Amiens, he brought some bad news.
Regarding the establishment of the 6th Regiment of the Foreign Legion, Foch agreed in principle to expand the 6th Regiment into the 1st Brigade of the Foreign Legion, with jurisdiction over the 6th and 7th regiments and the 1st Artillery Regiment.
Then there is only one problem left in front of us. The sixth regiment must have a matching record in order to stop the crowd.
Before the Sixth Regiment joined the Foreign Legion, there were five regiments in the Foreign Legion. Among them, the second, third and fourth regiments were all composed of Algerians. According to their qualifications and numbers, it was more than enough to establish a brigade. The three regiments
The French military chief also reported that he wanted to establish a brigade-level unit to facilitate joint command. After detailed study, the French did not agree to this proposal.
Now that the Sixth Regiment wants to establish the first brigade, it must first use its achievements to stem the criticism within the Foreign Legion. Although Qin Zhiyuan has never reported to the Foreign Legion headquarters in Algeria, the Sixth Regiment is, after all, an establishment under the Foreign Legion.
.
The Sixth Regiment can have certain privileges, but it cannot break out of the framework of the Foreign Legion.
When the Sixth Regiment possesses unrivaled combat power, expansion becomes inevitable. At the same time, even the Foreign Legion headquarters can only let it go.
Therefore, what Qin Zhiyuan needs now is military merit.
The private actions of Hu Tingfeng and others found a breakthrough for Qin Zhiyuan to break the current deadlock. As long as Qin Zhiyuan can lead his troops to break through the German positions in the Somme area, Qin Zhiyuan will have indisputable military merit. After all, this
This is something that more than 1 million British and French allied forces have not been able to do.
In the current Somme area, the total strength of both warring parties has exceeded 2 million. The British and French forces have concentrated 86 divisions, and the Germans have concentrated 67 divisions. The role of these 5,000 men in Qin Zhiyuan's hands is extremely limited.
.
It is because of this limitation that Qin Zhiyuan is given more space.
When Qin Zhiyuan only had 5,000 people in his hands, Qin Zhiyuan could break through the German defense line. If Qin Zhiyuan had 50,000 people in his hands, what could he do?
This is a question that everyone will think about.
If the troops want to attack, they must communicate with the French commander in advance in order to cooperate more effectively. Qin Zhiyuan handed over this task to Pierre. He himself concentrated on the preparations for the attack.
When it comes to preparations, there is no way around the logistical support controlled by Qin Zhisheng. But when it comes to logistical support, it is linked to Chen Kangjian.
Qin Zhiyuan still remembers that the first French sentence Chen Kangjian wanted to learn was, how much does it cost per night? I don’t know if Huang Fugui taught him this sentence, but Qin Zhiyuan never taught him this sentence.
Chen Kangjian was quite insistent that this guy was self-taught. While Ge Lifu, Liu Zizheng and others were busy training all day long, Chen Kangjian had quietly solved his personal problems.
As mentioned before, although France at this time was not as extreme as the Germans, who ordered all men over the age of 16 and under 60 to join the reserve force, it also recruited a large number of strong young men to join the army and send them to the front line.
As a result, many French families are left with only orphans and widows. The living conditions of these orphans and widows are not optimistic. The men in the family who are still alive are better off, and their salaries are mailed to their families every month. Those families
For families with disabled soldiers or whose men have died in battle, their living conditions are a bit miserable.
At this time, France also began to implement a rationing system for supplies. If you wanted enough daily necessities, you would have to spend a long time queuing up every day to buy them. However, spending time queuing would squeeze your working time, so this was a dilemma.
s Choice.
This is already much better than the Germans, who can’t even buy it if they want.
This situation gives some people an opportunity.
Chen Kangjian is a rough-and-tumble man. Such people hate taking care of housework. For Chen Kangjian, washing clothes is the most troublesome thing.
The French had foreseen this, so they had a laundry room in Kapi, where Chen Kangjian would send clothes and bedding for cleaning. The laundry room in Kapi was located in the town, some distance from the camp of the Sixth Regiment.
distance.
One day, Chen Kangjian was on his way to the laundry room when he saw a young French woman washing clothes in a house on the roadside.
This French woman has a plump figure, big breasts and wide buttocks, and is very attractive to Chen Kangjian.
So Chen Kangjian walked into the house with the clothes to be washed in one hand and two boxes of military cans in the other.
Three hours later, Chen Kangjian returned to camp feeling physically and mentally comfortable.
The French are not shy about the physiological needs of soldiers. Next to Cappi's military camp, there is a brothel set up by the French, which houses people of all races to meet the needs of different people.
Qin Zhiyuan severely stopped the behavior. Qin Zhiyuan stipulated that if anyone in the Sixth Regiment dared to enter or leave a brothel, they would be immediately expelled from the military if discovered once.
Qin Zhiyuan did this for a reason. In France at this time, according to relevant data, about 20 to 30 civilians and soldiers were suffering from syphilis. If Qin Zhiyuan did not strictly stop such incidents, it is conceivable that once someone is infected
If you have syphilis, in this era before penicillin has been invented, there is basically no cure.
penicillin
We will discuss this issue later.
But after all, the army is composed of a group of vigorous young people. They have their own physiological needs. This is human nature and cannot be eliminated. Therefore, if you want to solve physiological problems, you need to find another way.
Chen Kangjian's approach made a good start. Soon, many Chinese soldiers became accustomed to entering and leaving French civilian homes. The reason is self-evident.
After all, Kapi is just a small town. There are not many residents in the town, but there are many soldiers around the town. There are more wolves and less meat. Finally one day, when Chen Kangjian went to his lover's home, he met two French soldiers. So.
, a fight suddenly broke out.
Chen Kangjian is a serious successor to the north leg. The fight was so devastating that the two Frenchmen were kicked out of the hospital before they could even get out of the fight.
This is French territory, and the French would never tolerate being bullied on French soil, so two Frenchmen went back and called a squad.
After a class came over, they still didn't get a good deal. Each one of them was beaten and humiliated and went back to call for help. This time, a platoon was called.
Chen Kangjian also sent people back to the camp early to move troops. As a result, when this platoon of French soldiers arrived, what was waiting for them was a class of martial arts masters.
When the French came over for the fourth time, they were led by a major and brought a company with guns and live ammunition.
When the matter reached this point, it was beyond Chen Kangjian's ability to handle, so Qin Zhiyuan was reported.
When Qin Zhiyuan arrived at the scene.
The French have surrounded Chen Kangjian's lover's home tightly. The French not only brought light weapons, but also brought four heavy machine guns in trucks. The black muzzles of the guns were pointed directly at the closed door. As long as they gave an order,
An 8x50mm Lebel bullet can tear an entire house apart.
People inside, listen, you have been surrounded, come out immediately and kneel down and surrender, otherwise what awaits you will be destruction. You only have the last five minutes.
The loudspeaker on the truck has been playing the ultimatum, but unfortunately it has little effect. With the French skills of Chen Kangjian and others, they may not be able to understand this aria-like persuasion to surrender.
Qin Zhiyuan was helpless. He was just simply jealous. As for such a huge battle,
