Chapter 237 Westbound 20
"Kill!", "Kill! Kill!", there were shouts of killing sounds from the training ground. It turned out that the first team of soldiers from the fifth company were practicing assassination.
The weather in June was already very hot, and these soldiers were training hard with their shirtless. On the training ground, the swords were shining and sweat was flying. The black and strong soldiers were in a correct posture and powerful assassination. The land under their feet was stepped out of dust, and solid steps were stepped on the ground, raising a piece of dust.
On the other side of the training ground, some soldiers dug trenches and repaired fortifications under the leadership of the platoon leader, and some soldiers conducted offensive and defensive training for squads and platoons on a small hill. The fortifications built by the officers and soldiers of the Fifth Company were fast and standard, and the offensive and defensive teams were skillful and fast. These could be regarded as models.
These training is part of the daily training of the fifth company. In Li Qinglin and the others' eyes, this is too ordinary, but in Chen Zhendong's eyes, these soldiers were all murderous and could tell at a glance that they had seen warriors with blood. Chen Zhendong, who had led soldiers to fight wars, knew that although the number of troops was not large, they were definitely a tiger and wolf army on the battlefield.
Looking back at my soldiers, they were all stupid and timid. Compared with others, one was in the sky and the other was underground.
At this moment, Li Qinglin came over. Seeing a lieutenant colonel standing by the training ground with a group of people, Li Qinglin jumped off the horse and handed the reins to Ding Goudan, then saluted and said, "Report to the commander, the 5th Company of the 245th Battalion, 145th Regiment, 73rd Brigade of the 25th Division, is training, please give me a lecture!"
Although Chen Zhendong advanced to the team, he wore the rank of colonel. Captain Li Qinglin naturally had to salute when he saw a high rank. As for asking the commander to speak, it was just a polite word. The two troops were considered friendly forces, and ordinary officers would never speak shyly in other people's troops.
"I dare not, you are elite troops, much better than us." Chen Zhendong really won't do anything annoying. He replied with a greeting.
Li Qinglin rode a horse for a while, and was sweating profusely. He looked up at the sun in the air and said to Chen Zhendong: "Sir, it's too hot, please invite the sir to our barracks to have some tea to relieve the heat."
Although they do not belong to the same unit, they still have to say polite words. Li Qinglin thought the other party would decline, but he didn't expect Chen Zhendong to say readily: "Okay, then I'll bother you."
The tent of the fifth company was on the other end of the training ground. After passing the training ground of the fifth company, Chen Zhendong secretly inspected the equipment of the fifth company. It didn't matter if he saw it, but after seeing it, he was about to hook out his greed.
The soldiers of the fifth company were mainly equipped with the official equipment, and some of them used the 38th cover. The soldiers' bullet belts were also bulging, and they looked full of bullets. There were more than a dozen Czech styles, which shocked Chen Zhendong especially that the fifth company actually had several grenade cans and even an 82 mortar.
The first war zone also distributed equipment to their advance team, but the rifles were basically made of old Hanyang. There were very few machine guns, and a squadron usually had one to two Czech styles; there were even fewer artillery, like their squadron level, which was equivalent to the regular corps level, which only had two to four mortars. Now Li Qinglin's company has such powerful firepower, which made Chen Zhendong very moved.
The weather was too hot. After entering the tent, Chen Zhendong did not treat himself as an outsider. He took off his hat and unbuttoned his clothes, and sat on the chair and talked to Li Qinglin. Even the tone of his speech seemed to be to his own people.
Ding Goudan is now the squad leader and is also Li Qinglin's guard. He quickly brought hot tea and melon seeds to the table. Chen Zhendong was not artificial. He picked up the tea bowl and drank it and ate it. He was completely a soldier style.
After drinking a few cups of hot tea and eating some snacks, Chen Zhendong began to touch the background of the fifth company, and Li Qinglin briefly introduced the battle experience of the fifth company.
After Li Qinglin finished speaking, Chen Zhendong seemed to say unintentionally: "Brother Li, I heard that the Fifty-Second Army had already rested in the south. Do you know their specific location now?"
In fact, Li Qinglin had already inquired about it. The 52nd Army is currently resting near Luohe. But he is determined to not reply to the 52nd Army, so he shook his head and said, "We don't have a radio station, so I don't know where the officers are now."
Chen Zhendong asked tentatively: "You haven't found out where they are now stationed?"
Li Qinglin deliberately pretended to be indifferent and said, "Inquiry about what those people are doing. Now the country is in crisis, and there are still people who fight the Japanese wherever they go!"
When Chen Zhendong heard this, he felt secretly happy. After drinking a few cups of tea and chatting about gossip, he used the excuse of patrolling the Second Squadron and politely bid farewell to Li Qinglin.
As soon as he arrived at the camp of the Second Squadron, the squadron leader asked in confusion: "Sir, you are so many classes higher than him, why are you so polite to him?"
Chen Zhendong smiled and said, "The secrets of heaven cannot be revealed." After that, he rode his horse and took the guards to run towards the team.
Chen Zhendong was so anxious to rush back, he wanted to go back and discuss with the commander of the column to recruit Li Qinglin's fifth company.
The 52nd Army is famous and the 5th Company's combat effectiveness is even more unspeakable. Chen Zhendong knew very well. He just tried Li Qinglin and learned that the 5th Company is not willing to return to the 52nd Army now, which is simply great news for him.
Although he was the captain of the detachment and his status was equivalent to that of the commander of the National Army, after just watching the training of the soldiers of the fifth company, he looked back at his soldiers and was simply a group of mobs. Under such circumstances, his colonel also gave a big discount. He had ordered the Shangfeng to cross the Yellow River for a few days. Chen Zhendong himself doubted whether he would be eaten by the Japanese in the first battle and not even left his bones.
Now the 5th Company has the intention to leave the 52nd Army. Isn’t this the opportunity to independently advance into the ninth detachment of the column? If you have such a strong team under your command, at least your safety will be absolutely guaranteed.
Chen Zhendong rushed forward. He quickly returned to his camp and immediately picked up the phone to report the situation to the commander of the column Guo Bingwen.
Guo Bingwen is now worried about his team's insufficient personnel and weak combat effectiveness. Chen Zhendong may bring in a team like the fifth company. This is exactly what Guo Bingwen wants. So he made the decision on the spot that as long as Li Qinglin and the others can come in, everything else will be easy to say.
With the approval of Shangfeng, Chen Zhendong immediately rode a horse to Li Qinglin's station.
When Chen Zhendong saw Li Qinglin, he explained his purpose immediately. After bargaining, the two sides reached an agreement.
