The mercenary group model in Zhou Wen's mind actually served as a model for later generations. He just wanted to establish a comprehensive mercenary organization in the Republic of China similar to the later American Blackwater Company.
Blackwater is a well-known mercenary and security company in the United States. In 1998, Blackwater was established. Within ten years, the company developed from a small security company with only a few people to the world's largest security company, with annual revenue of approximately US$12 million. As of 2007
In 2017, Blackwater had 2,300 employees located in 9 countries around the world, with 20,000 employees on standby and 20 aircraft on standby.
The company has also become a large security company covering five subsidiaries including training centers, shooting ranges, police dog training, air guards, and security consultants. Its customers include the U.S. Department of Defense, the Department of State, the Department of Transportation, federal law enforcement agencies, multinational corporations, and foreign governments.
.
The key point that Blackwater has been able to develop into a fully functional mercenary company in the world in just ten years is that the family of Blackwater founder Eric Prince has always been a major donor of Republican campaign funds.
Therefore, it can be seen that their relationship with the US government is quite close. It is precisely because of these intricate relationships that Blackwater has developed so rapidly.
In his previous life, Zhou Wen had been in the mercenary world for many years and knew a lot about the situation of Blackwater Company, so he tried every means to establish a relationship with the National Army and even the principal from the beginning.
He knew that in the complex environment of the Republic of China, if the model of the mercenary group was to be accepted and recognized by others without being swallowed up by those predatory forces, it must have a certain government background and network foundation. Even if
The strength of these thousands of human-scale weapons may not be in the eyes of those big guys, but when necessary, you have to show off your muscles to let others know that even if you can eat you, you may break one or two teeth.
, thus eliminating the risk of being completely annexed by others.
That's why Zhou Wen has led his brothers all the way to this day, which is why it's not easy and very hard.
But after these two hearty battles against Japan, Zhou Wen felt that all the efforts and hardships were worth it.
He knew that the Japanese army would not launch another attack today. The Japanese army lost more than 500 people in the two-day offensive battle. More importantly, they lost 10 of their precious armored vehicles at one time. He was already feeling the pain.
With insufficient troops, the Japanese army could only huddle behind the defense line and lick their wounds.
The Songhu War of Resistance is about to enter the third stage. Reinforcements from both the enemy and ours are about to arrive. In the next few days, the two sides will start a new round of competition. However, the Japanese army will attack and the Chinese army's defensive posture will not change.
Zhou Wen also knew that the most famous victory of the Chinese army in the Songhu Anti-Japanese War occurred at this stage, known in history as the "Victory in the Temple".
The Great Victory at Miaohang can be said to be the largest battle between China and Japan in the Songhu War of Resistance. The Japanese Ninth Division and the Mixed 24th Brigade, with a total of more than 20,000 troops, launched a frenzied attack on the Chinese army's Miaohang and Jiangwan front-line positions in a vain attempt.
Once again, the Chinese army's defense line was cut off.
The Chinese army fought in coordination with the Fifth Army and the 19th Route Army. Both sides invested more than 50,000 troops. In the end, the Chinese army repelled the Japanese attack and wiped out nearly 3,000 Japanese troops to win the battle.
Later, the Japanese army had to add two more divisions. The total strength of the Japanese army in Songhu reached more than 90,000, and it also had huge advantages in the navy and aviation. However, the Chinese army did not send any more reinforcements due to various reasons, resulting in
The Nineteenth Route Army and the Fifth Army in Shanghai were threatened by the Japanese landing from Liuhe, and had to withdraw from the city of Shanghai. Finally, with the mediation of the League of Nations, China and Japan signed an armistice agreement, basically restoring the "128
The original situation before the "incident".
Zhou Wen was unable to change history, and even with a thousand men in the mercenary group, he was unable to change the situation in which the Japanese army finally gained the upper hand. However, he could add salt to the wounds of the Japanese army that were already dripping with blood. His eyes have now shifted to the upcoming war.
The Battle of Temple Walk.
Therefore, given that the Japanese army was currently unable to attack and the battlefield was at a brief lull, Zhou Wen withdrew the mercenary group back to the temple.
…
In the evening, at the entrance of Miaohang Town, Zhou Wen, along with several officers including Meng Yuting, Chen Wanli, Miaohua and Gao Xiaoshan, stood on the roadside to greet groups of brothers who had withdrawn from their positions.
In the town, Uncle Wu and the soldiers from the logistics team had already prepared several large pots of hot braised pork and large boxes of white-faced steamed buns.
It happened to be a coincidence that today Uncle Wan and several Youth Gang disciples drove to pick up Miss Su Yaqin from the Su family and Jiang Han, whose injuries were basically stable. He also brought a few pigs to express condolences to the mercenary group.
When she heard that the team was withdrawing from the temple today, Su Yaqin insisted on waiting for the team to come back before leaving, saying she wanted to say goodbye to her savior.
In fact, since she was rescued by Zhang Xiaoping last time, for some reason, the tall boy's figure has always been lingering in her mind. That face with a shy smile at all times often appears in front of her eyes.
After hearing that Zhang Xiaoping went to the front line, Su Yaqin began to feel worried. Every time she heard the sound of gunfire from the front, her heart could not help but beat wildly, and her worry turned into worry.
Su Yaqin knew that she fell in love with this big boy.
Recently, she has been living with the nurses in the field hospital. After spending a few days together, Cui Xiaolu and the other nurses also like this gentle, charming and cute little sister very much.
Su Yaqin got to know some of Zhang Xiaoping's past deeds from the chat among a group of girls. Especially when she heard that Zhang Xiaoping was an orphan, she felt a little more pity for Zhang Xiaoping in addition to liking him.
Zhang Xiaoping and Ti Jing were the last group of team members to return because their sniper positions were the farthest. When Zhou Wen saw the two of them, he smiled and extended his thumbs up and said: "A Jing did a great job today. One of them destroyed two assists and three vehicles."
The Japanese armored vehicle was destroyed in your hands, that’s right,”
Ti Jing smiled widely, held up the anti-tank gun in his hand and said, "Uncle Junior, the most powerful one is actually you. Without the guy you bought, it would be really difficult to deal with the Japanese armored vehicles."
Zhou Wenai looked at his junior brother and nephew with a lively look. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Tieniu running over shouting and saying: "Ah Jing, Ah Jing, did you see it? I also aborted one today.
A little Japanese armored vehicle."
Only then did Zhou Wen realize that this was Tieniu's first time on the battlefield in a real sense. In order to protect him in the past, he was always used as a logistics personnel. He was able to achieve results on the battlefield for the first time, and of course he had to praise him a few times.
While they were joking, Zhou Wen suddenly noticed that Zhang Xiaoping was always looking to the side. When he turned around, he suddenly realized.
