Chapter 64: Fighting Experience

"Captain Cui! Captain Cui... Commander of the Constitution... Commander of the Constitution calls you!"

In the evening of that day, I was awakened by the correspondent in a daze. I got up and rubbed my achesy eyes, then grabbed two handfuls of snow on my face and wiped them to make myself more awake. I grabbed the gun and followed the correspondent towards the regiment headquarters.

After more than ten minutes, I entered an air raid shelter, which was already lined up on the ground, mostly the backbone of the Volunteer Army. I recognized several people from the People's Army as Cui Chengxi and his guard.

As soon as I entered the air raid shelter, I smelled a smell of smell. There was nothing I could do. Volunteer soldiers had poor conditions and had not taken a bath for more than a month and had not washed their feet. That was very common.

"This is the situation!" Commander Chu pointed to the map on the wall when he saw everyone, saying, "Tonight our target is here, and the government is discussing. According to reconnaissance, under the fierce attack of our army, the US military has begun to retreat on the entire line with the cover of the 29th Brigade of the British Army."

"good!"

"Beat him the son of the turtle!"

"Let's chase him and beat him up a few more!"

...

When the soldiers heard that the US military had begun to retreat, they all showed joy of victory on their faces. They clenched their fists and muttered that they wanted to chase the US military, but they did not take the British troops in front seriously.

"Comrades!" After everyone was quiet, Chen Ye said with a serious expression: "The ones standing in front of us are the forces of two British regiments, including a British Royal Heavy Tank Battalion. Our army basically has no anti-tank weapons. We have seen the combat effectiveness of the British army. It is only stronger than the US army, so we cannot underestimate the enemy!"

"Yes!" Captain Chu added: "And there was a strange army in the British army! This army has good shooting skills, and they are all sharpshooters. They are good at disguising themselves and shooting and killing our cadres and important figures, causing great losses to our army."

After saying this, everyone was silent because many of the people present had seen this tactic on the battlefield last night. Those who commanded with box cannons, observed with telescopes, and zha medicine bags... would all become the targets of these people. This is not only a matter of casualties on the battlefield, but also a great psychological pressure on the soldiers, which greatly dampened the morale of the soldiers and caused command failure.

"Let's do it!" Chen Ye saw that the atmosphere was not right, and he tilted his head and pointed at me and said, "Captain Cui of our regiment successfully knocked out an enemy sharpshooter, clearing the way forward for our army. We ask him to introduce his experience!"

"What?" I was stunned when I heard this. Why did I have to introduce my experience everywhere after a war? Even the people in the troupe have to... If everything goes on like this, I will give a tour speech in the entire army.

But the soldiers around me kept applauding, so I had to stand up in embarrassment and said, "I have no experience to introduce, just... I just tell you, the enemy troops are called snipers!"

"What?"

"What?"

...

When the comrades heard this name for the first time, they felt quite fresh.

"Call the sniper!" I emphasized again and continued, "It's similar to our sharpshooters, but it's different. As Captain Chu said just now, these snipers of the enemy generally attack important figures or important targets, so our cadres should not bring pistols to the battlefield. Also, these snipers have good guns, and can hit the target with a little reflection on the telescope or a little fire on the cigarette. Therefore, it is recommended that our cadres not smoke on the battlefield. When observing the enemy situation with the telescope, they must cover a layer of gauze on the telescope."

After saying that, I saluted and sat down, and the soldiers applauded me again.

"Old Chu..." Chen Ye pointed to the telescope on Captain Chu's chest with a smile.

"Old Chen..." Captain Chu ignored the question and pointed at the cigarette lit in Chen Ye's hand in response, making the soldiers laugh.

"Get back to the point!" After laughing for a while, Regiment Chu pointed to the map again and said, "The enemy's troops are deployed so much. The enemy uses a battalion to guard the Dongdouchuan Highway leading to the Yi Government. The remaining at least one regiment has a troop and a heavy tank battalion on standby in the Yi Government, ready to provide reinforcements for the front line or provide cover for the retreat of the front line troops."

After pausing, Commander Chu continued: "Our army's plan is like this: a company will carry out a feint attack on the enemy guarding the Dongdouchuan Highway. The main force ambushed on the enemy's reinforcements and prepare for ambush. After the enemy reinforcements leave the city, they will eliminate the enemy's living forces in one fell swoop, and then capture the government!"

"Cui Wei!"

"Come!" I stood up like a conditioned reflex.

"You are responsible for feint attacking the enemy's defense line on the Dongdouchuan Highway! Is there any difficulty?"

"Ah?" I was stunned when I heard this, and subconsciously replied: "Captain! All the recruits in our company are recruits!"

"What's wrong with the recruits? If the recruits don't go out to fight, can they become veterans?"

"This..." Looking at the group leader's eyes, I knew that this task could not be pushed off, so I had to salute and agreed.

"Do you have any comments? If you don't have any comments, then..."

"Wait." When Captain Chu was about to announce the end of the meeting, Chen Ye stood up with Zhang Zhi and said, "Comrades, this battle may have to deal with the enemy's tanks. I specially found some soldiers who had fought tanks and summarized some experiences with them. I have recorded them all on this. I will read it to the comrades. After writing it down, the comrades will go back to promote it!"

After saying that, Political Commissar Chen Ye picked up the paper and recited it: "The US tank iron turtle is as stupid as a cow. It is ten fearful; it is afraid that it will become blind when it is dark and sun sets; it will become blind when it is blind when it is sold; it is afraid that the infantry will throw it away and that it will not be able to find a home when it is fought alone; it is afraid that the trench will be dug deep, and it will be caught when it falls into the ditch; it is afraid that the terrarium will be cut into the mud; it is afraid that the mines and medicine bags will be broken, and the butt will be blooming to the sky; it is afraid that the slender explosion tube will be broken, and the iron chains will not be climbed; it is afraid that the rocket launcher will be able to be fired inside and outside; it is afraid that the armor-piercing war cannons will be blown into the iron shell; it is afraid that the oil bottle grenade will be burned back to its hometown; it is also very scared that the mountain combat terrain is complicated; it cannot run away from the highway, and it will be difficult to die if it is not moving."

"I'll have two moves, the political commissar, and I've compiled a nursery rhyme!" Chu Tuan nodded after hearing this.

I also secretly praised in my heart. This nursery rhyme covers the weaknesses and methods of dealing with tanks in an easy-to-understand manner. The volunteers generally have a low level of education. If they tell them about the principles of fighting tanks, they will definitely not understand and remember them. However, I believe that this form of nursery rhyme will soon be passed down by word of mouth among the volunteer soldiers.
