Chapter 155 The nameless highland has a name (8)

During the day, there was still no one in the mountains.It is a lonely and boring little wind that goes through the ravine.Above, the black clouds drifting from the sea pressed down on the peak for a while, and then dispersed with the wind, revealing the fresh blue sky.Sometimes, there will be a small slanting wind and drizzle, but sometimes a few snowflakes will fall. Although it was so quiet outside, hot and cold and cloudy and sunny, it was a different situation in the tunnel.The cadres and soldiers were all discussing the instructions of their superiors in extreme excitement and tension.The enthusiasm in the cave is like several strands of red hot steel juice, once it flows out, it can overwhelm the "Old Bald Mountain".

Military democracy condenses our will to fight together into steel.Some who had concerns confessed their concerns, thus eliminating them.Those with incorrect ideas were criticized and encouraged, and their thinking was corrected.Some with strategies offered their strategies, some with experience offered their experience, and some with opinions offered their opinions.In this way, before executing the order, there is sufficient preparation, which enriches the knowledge of completing the task and strengthens the confidence in completing the task. Squad leader Chang Ruogui didn't even bother to say "too bad".There is no need to vent his emotions now, he wants to store all the excitement and joy in his heart, and when he has conquered "Old Bald Mountain", he will cheer a few times on the main peak!

During the day, he participated in various meetings; at night, he had already begun to deliver ammunition and supplies to the east of the river.During the meeting, he didn't talk much, just put his big hands with pimples on his knees, and his eyes moved in the long and big eye sockets.After moving for a while, he stared at a comrade, as if to say: "Little guy, it's time for you to express your attitude. Be a hero or a coward! Tell me!" However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he said the right place.He has experience, passion, and thoughtfulness. "I said, you don't have to be afraid of being busy, but you are afraid of chaos in transportation! You can't have no command and no organization for a moment! If there are casualties, quickly reorganize. Don't be afraid of a small organization, but be afraid of chaos!" And, "When crossing the blockade, the Go fast, go slow, but don’t hesitate or be in doubt! Cannonballs are only for those who are in doubt!”

His words are always so simple and powerful, and they penetrate deeply into everyone's hearts. As soon as he heard the report, he went to see the company commander and asked for a task: before the battle, he delivered things to the front line; once the fire was fired, he went to the position. "I promise to carry the ammunition up and the wounded down! If I can't run, I'll walk; if I can't walk, I'll climb; if I have breath, I won't leave 'Old Bald Mountain'!" The company commander agreed to his request.The regiment's transport company was supposed to ration part of the battalion's strength.

When he got this task, whether he was walking or lying down to rest, he always thought about the problem.According to the call of the party, being brave and intrepid is not considered a hero!He has to sweat as much as he sweats, and spend as much painstaking effort as he has.Just sweating but not thinking, you can only be regarded as half a hero at most! His head showed his face with one shot.Sending the ammunition to the front-line warehouse, he provided advice: "Sort the ammunition into categories and place them according to the category, and don't pile them up randomly! In this way, when we fire, we can grab whatever the front line wants, saving time! This is not science. method?"

Those who manage the warehouse adopted his advice. Another problem, which has not been solved yet.He thought: how can the wounded be transported down from the battlefield quickly and steadily without inflicting pain on the wounded?It is uneconomical for three people to carry a stretcher.The mountain is steep, the stretcher is inconvenient, and the wounded are uncomfortable.One person carries one, which saves manpower and is fast.However, it is not enough to carry it naked, it is strenuous, and the wounded are also uncomfortable.How to do it? On the third night of the delivery, outside Tan Mingchao's cave, he met Sergeant Tang Wanshan.It was very dark, so the two met each other and asked together: "Who?" The sergeant first heard the accent, and then took a closer look: "You? Squad leader!" "What are you doing?" The squad leader asked.

"There are so many things!" The sergeant said proudly, as if he was the commander-in-chief of the "Old Bald Mountain".Putting his mouth next to the squad leader's ear, he said proudly and confidentially: "Look at the terrain! Look at the terrain!" The hot air in his mouth made the squad leader's ears itchy. "Which kind of terrain do you see?" The sergeant smiled and said: "Look! Look! Why shouldn't I go? Before the war, I had to supervise the cooking squad to steam 500 catties of steamed buns and boil 30 buckets of boiling water! It can scare you faint! The pot is so small, and there is no standard cage! It must be invented..."

"Tell me why you went to see the terrain!" The squad leader got impatient. "Yes! As soon as the fire was fired, I led the cooking team, barbers, and clerks to the battlefield! Ammunition was transported up, and the wounded were transported down! How could I not be familiar with the terrain first? At the beginning, when Ma Su fell to the street pavilion, it wasn't... " "Why do you talk so much! Let me ask you, how do you carry the wounded on your back? Tell me!" "There is a new creation! You don't often go to the kitchen, and you don't know much! Let me ask you, how to pack charcoal and rice? What do you use?"

The squad leader suddenly realized: "You deserve to be a volunteer army! I forgive you for being too talkative! Put straps on the four corners of the sack to wrap around the wounded like a child. It is firm and comfortable! I will adopt your method! Go, see. Go to the terrain! Go to the barbed wire and don't make a sound!" "I'm not that talkative!" The two parted ways, one went east and the other went west.The squad leader wished he could go home in one step and collect the sacks. Chang Ruogui got off the traffic trench, and before he had gone far, a figure came in front of him.The shadow spoke first: "Password!"

The squad leader heard the voice: "Fuck you! Little guy!" The squad leader just got the trick of using the sack, and he was very happy. "How many times have you walked? Old man!" Tan Mingchao ran over. "Call me old man again, I'll throw you out like a grenade! Brat!" "Don't be angry, monitor! Come and see my invention!" Tan Mingchao held the monitor's big thick hand with his dexterous hand, and moved towards Touch the trench wall.After touching many wires against the wall and some knots made of cloth strips, the squad leader asked, "What kind of invention is this?" Tan Mingchao smiled mischievously and triumphantly. "You have no idea how many wires we have added these days! A new telephone network: a command post to a chain of command posts, an observation post to a chain of command posts... So many! So many! Lines There are so many, if one is broken, how can we quickly find out?"

"Hmm! It's a question!" "So, I divided them into groups, and tied each group with cloth strips. There are red ones, white ones, and black ones... Isn't it easy to check? The one you touched is red, is it Observatory group." "You can feel the color by touching it?" the monitor asked in amazement. "It's very simple!" Tan Mingchao quickly licked the corners of his mouth with the tip of his tongue.The corner of his mouth had healed up a few days ago, but after being busy these two days, it broke again, and not only one side. "Look at the color in the daytime, feel the pimples in the dark, the number of pimples is different!" "Young man, you can do it! You are willing to use your brain!" The squad leader does not praise people easily, but now he feels that he has the responsibility to encourage such a good young man. "If you have a brain, you don't need it. What do you do with it?" Xiao Tan squinted upwards proudly.Fortunately, it was so dark that the squad leader would not see it. "I still have a happy event! I have fully mastered the walking machine. When the real fight starts, I will be transferred to the radio team. I may be the telephone operator for He Zhongyun, the heroic battalion commander! Hey!" The squad leader Chang thought for a while before saying : "The battalion commander may not be on the battlefield, right?" "What?" Xiao Tan was anxious. "He's the battalion commander!" "Then, then..." Tan Mingchao was so anxious that he couldn't say anything. He looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally had hope. He might go to the battlefield with a hero, but... Squad leader Chang was not good at comforting others.Seeing that Xiao Tan was really in a hurry, he didn't know what to do.He stammered and said only: "You, yourself, can be a hero!" After speaking, he strode away. Xiao Tan is indeed a little disappointed, but he is far from depressed.He is still working nervously, using work to relieve the unhappiness in his heart. He couldn't help being nervous, because the trenches in all directions were full of people, all sweating and using their minds to prepare for the coming battle.Ammunition, wood, medicine, biscuits, move forward; anti-aircraft guns, mortars, move forward; groups watching the terrain move forward one by one; cadres follow one by one, select command posts, observation stations, dressing stations, The most suitable place for artillery positions... People are like rivers, which do not stop flowing because of the darkness, and are still urging waves.Everyone knows and firmly believes that the more sweat you shed before a battle, the less blood you shed during a war. At the end of the trench, not far from the small cave, Xiao Tan met Wen Jishuang.This made him forget all the unhappiness just now, and he was sincerely willing to hear what new achievements his good friend had. Wen Jishuang is a student who volunteers to join the army.He still looks a bit like a student, but no one dares to say that he is not a good engineer.With straight eyebrows and well-proportioned medium build, he is a good player in basketball. "Come down! Come down!" Wen Jishuang said very excitedly, "Come try my pontoon!" The engineers and soldiers expected that once the war broke out, the wooden bridge would be blown up indefinitely many times a day.Of course, they will repair it as they bomb it; however, when it is being repaired, people on both sides of the bank will inevitably be crowded with people waiting to cross the bridge; that is very dangerous.Therefore, Wen Jishuang suggested building a pontoon bridge to assist the wooden bridge so that the traffic would not be completely cut off. "But we don't have a machine to tighten the rope! I think of a country cart wheel, and use it to tighten the rope! How interesting it is to fight a war at the same time as in a vegetable garden!" Xiao Tan admired Xiao Wen's invention so much that he didn't even dare to say his own way of grouping cloth strips. "Chairman Mao has a poem," Wen Jishuang said excitedly. "Chairman Mao's?" "Chairman Mao's! 'The iron cables on the Dadu Bridge are cold!' This is not the Dadu River, and there are no iron cables, but the idea of ​​building a pontoon bridge comes from this poem!" "Long live Chairman Mao!" Tan Mingchao whispered very seriously. "long live Chairman Mao!" AA Battalion Commander He really forgot to sleep.First of all, he prepared the battle plan and handed it over to the head of the regiment.Then, he prepares everything that needs to be prepared.Only when he was sleepy and sneaked up, he took a short nap, then suddenly woke up, rubbed his eyes, smiled, and went to work immediately.In order to win, he forgot himself. He was in charge of training troops and organizing reconnaissance of the terrain—the cadres of the main attacking force, from the company commander to the team leader, had to observe the terrain at least four times before firing.The chief of staff manages the affairs of materials and the battalion, the instructor is in charge of political work, and the deputy instructor is in charge of logistics.This is how they work.Despite the division of labor, Battalion Commander He's heart is attached to every soldier.He loves every fighter, so he fears that any fighter has any scruples.As long as he was free, he would go to the company, platoon, and squad to face the soldiers.For each fighter, he first stated his determination.He made everyone feel that the battalion commander did not come to give lectures, but to talk to them.In his mind, there are no such words as "form" and "means".He talked with the soldiers without any formality, without resorting to tricks.The soldiers only felt that in front of them was a hero, a battalion commander, a class brother, a true friend, a lovely, respectable and reliable person. Whenever he comes back from the soldiers, he must "reconcile accounts" with instructor Lou. "how are you today?" "On the surface, the emotion is very high, but there is still..." "You are right! Instructor!" Battalion Commander He is not a person who is only allowed to report good news and not bad news.He respects and loves the trainer, because the trainer can not only discover the problem, but also is willing to seize the problem and try to solve it.He will never whitewash the peace! "A soldier, who is willing to reveal his weakness in front of others!" "If you don't tell your weakness, you can't be strong! We must hurry up and find models! Teach the best, like heroes and role models, and exert the best influence; teach the worst, like those who have made mistakes and New comrades with no combat experience are confident that they can do meritorious service!" "Okay! Tell the instructors of each company to prepare in this way and do it right away. Let's help them." "Elder Li Ye of the Third Company..." "He is already iron, but he doesn't know how to turn himself into steel! Let's help him!" Captain Qiao called and asked about the terrain. "I have seen it once generally, and I will continue to watch it." "Look at least four times! You can start to set up the sand table now, one for each shift! With reference to your plan, we have prepared a battle plan and will send someone over there immediately. According to the plan, combined with the experience of seeing the terrain, we will make sure everyone The task is to come up with a way to attack and ensure victory. Battalion-level cadres must go to each shift to see how they do sand table operations. They must think of all possible situations and ways to overcome difficulties! Must be human Everyone speaks up and discusses everything! Anyone who is not enthusiastic and not serious about doing it, whoever still does not trust the new style of play, immediately conduct tactical and ideological education..." Putting down the phone earphones, Battalion Commander He smiled and praised: "Good idea! Good idea!" He really liked it from the bottom of his heart when he heard an instruction or suggestion that was conducive to attacking!He told the instructors the commander's instructions almost verbatim. "You call Yilian and Erlian, and I'll go to Sanlian." ………… Company Commander Li's face became thinner from exhaustion, the round tiger eyes appeared bigger, the eyeballs seemed to be popping out!He is not afraid of hard work, but he is afraid that the execution of orders will not be strict and thorough. However, he was not entirely happy.For the new tactics instructed by his superiors, he pondered day and night, willing to grasp it at once.However, those combat experiences in memory, like flies that cannot be driven away, always made him feel that he could not use the new tactic well no matter what.It made him anxious, angry, and hated his own stupidity.At the same time, he cannot completely deny those old experiences, and even doubts new tactics because he cherishes those old experiences.However, how can you doubt the instructions of your superiors?He feels pain! Seeing the battalion commander, he reported in detail the work of the past few days.He was satisfied with his report, because what he did was Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding, Ding Ding, and there was no perfunctory place.Then, as expected by the battalion commander, he asked if his company should be sent as the main attacker.This is a question he has already thought about, and he is extremely afraid that he will not get this glorious task because he can't master the new tactics. "The battle plan is about to come down." The battalion commander whispered slowly, "We have decided that your company will be the main attacker!" "That's great! It's great!" The company commander smiled innocently, his face brightened, "I promise to complete the task!" "Are there any difficulties? Let's talk about it! Just talk about it!" The battalion commander knew that there was no need to use violent tactics against such a warrior, but to talk to each other and find out the problem slowly. Li Zhitang lowered his head and took a few puffs of cigarettes - he wanted to stop smoking, but he was too busy these days and forgot.The battalion commander didn't say a word either.He knew that as long as Li Zhitang thought about something well, he would say it all at once. The company commander took two more puffs of his cigarette, then raised his head, and stared squarely at the battalion commander with round eyes. "Commander! I'm sorry!" Battalion Commander He knew the details of this sentence.In the past, when he was squad leader and platoon leader, he often said this to his superiors; now, cadres below the battalion often say this to him.This is a most respectable sentence.No matter how much hardship a soldier or cadre has endured, how much sweat he has shed, and how much blood he has shed, as long as he is slightly dissatisfied, he will say, "Commander, I'm sorry for you!" Those who forget themselves can't say such pure and self-blaming words. The battalion commander encouraged him to continue with his kind and sympathetic eyes. "There is nothing I can do about this new tactic!" the company commander expressed his thoughts. "It's not that there is no way, it's that we haven't figured it out yet. The Volunteer Army will never say there is no way!" The battalion commander said cheerfully and seriously. "Look, I told the trainer just now: You are already iron, but you have not been tempered into steel! How can you become steel? You must never be afraid to accept new things! This is how our volunteers grow up day by day, isn't it? Talk about your concerns, I won't underestimate you, I want you to add new skills, grow bigger and bigger!" "According to this new style of play, they swarmed up, and then went to their own goals and went their own way. I couldn't control the troops. The company commander expressed his specific concerns." Yes!According to the old method, we looked at the soldiers on the battlefield, like a teacher watching a group of elementary school students, lest something will go wrong if we don't see it.However, the method of putting all the fighters under one's nose can't defeat the 'Old Bald Mountain'!Didn't the head of the team say that if you're not ready, don't fight?Cannonballs, boiling water, etc., it is easy to prepare; the difficult part is tactical thinking!You have to prepare!Prepare!Prepare!Make yourself and every soldier believe that this is a good way of fighting, and then teach everyone to know exactly where to go up, where to go, what to fight first, and what to fight next.The team leader who teaches each group will command, not to mention the squad leader and platoon leader.In this way, it is not necessary, nor allowed, to place fighters by your own side.That's the way to go backwards! " "Yes!" The company commander had some confidence in his mind, but: "Then what am I going to do?" "Even I have to go up!" "Battle Commander, you go up too?" Li Zhitang admired the battalion commander so much, and felt that once the battalion commander went up, the battle would be over in ten minutes. "The superior has not approved it yet, I will continue to ask for it!" "Request! Request! There is a battalion commander, you look at me..." "Your old thoughts are back!" The battalion commander smiled slightly. "That's not it!" The company commander laughed. "You should review the instructions of the head of the group carefully! From there, you will find out what we are going to do! Now, you have to do the sand table homework carefully, and each class must do it. From everyone's discussion, you will see Their state of mind. The sand table work is almost done, and we will start the big exercise before the battle. Remember: get ready! get ready! get ready! That’s it, right?” "That's it, battalion commander!" The company commander was very grateful to the battalion commander, but he refused to say unnecessary words.
