Chapter 341: Fair Judgment
If Hal really has a "just judgment", then what is this "just judgment"?
Imprisoned Chinese soldiers involved in the fight? The soldiers who go to war don't care about this at all, rather...... Even if you are not even afraid of life and death on the battlefield, what else will you be afraid of?
Sure enough, when Major General Harper reported the incident to Halsey, Halsey asked Harper, "I want to know...... Are you training the Chinese troops or are the Chinese troops training you? ”
"Of course it's the Chinese troops training us, General!"
"So...... Tell me, Major General! Halsey asked, "What authority do you have to do with the instructor?" ”
"But the general ......"
"Nothing!" Halsey interrupted Harper: "Answer me, Major General. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoHave your soldiers, at any time and at any time, ever had a hands-on experience with an instructor? I mean, in the past training, have you ever dealt with American instructors? ”
Harper couldn't help but be speechless, the truth is...... It is actually very common for American instructors to be rude or rude to recruits, but they seem to be a little unaccustomed to facing Chinese instructors.
"At least one thing you're right!" Halsey said, "You don't obey the orders of the instructors, and the soldiers have to obey the orders, don't they?" Does this mean that you are not a qualified soldier, and it also proves that your combat effectiveness is not ideal? You're outnumbered, but dozens of people are in the hospital! ”
Harper was speechless.
"Let me tell you a reality, Major General!" Halsey said: "As Colonel Zhang Chi said, this is the training ground, the real battlefield is much more cruel than this, if you can't bear this, then it's better to get back to your mother as soon as possible!" ”
Harper didn't expect him to get such an answer at all, but that can only be blamed on Harper being too tender...... The battlefield has its own rules of the battlefield, which is different from the peaceful society in the rear, and there is no reason to talk about it, and it is often the winner who is the king and the loser is the villain.
Then Halsey called Zhang Chi again.
"I heard...... You did a blitz drill? Halsey asked.
"Yes!" Zhang Chi replied.
"Good!" Halsey said: "But I suggest not to be too fierce, after all, the battle is right in front of me, and I don't want the soldiers of the 77th Division to lie in the hospital before they even go to the battlefield, understand?" ”
"Understood!" Zhang Chi replied: "However, if they continue to be so disobedient, then I promise...... At least half of them were lying in the hospital before going to war! ”
Halsey on the other end of the line couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, Colonel! I will relay this to the 77th Division! ”
Halsey really relayed this to Harper, only to make Harper's eyes black with anger...... At one point, he even protested to Halsey and considered withdrawing the 77th Division from this intensive training.
Harper's reason is also very legitimate, because he feels that if this kind of training is carried out, the dignity of the soldiers of the US 77th Division will be disgraced, and the officers will lose their prestige, which will not only not help but harm the 77th Division to the battlefield in the future.
Halsey's reply to Harper was simple: "If you can defeat the Chinese army with a similar number of people, then it is the Chinese army that loses its dignity and not you, and I look forward to this day." As for the withdrawal of the 77th Division from training...... I'm not going to think about it, and if I could, I'd take you out of training, you know? ”
This is obvious, if you talk about quitting training, then Harper, the division commander, will not do it.
It should be said that Halsey's approach is also very sensible...... As the name suggests, this kind of training is that the instructor deliberately provokes the trainees, and the trainees have to stay under the instructor who they hate because of the objective conditions and accept all kinds of criticisms, so these soldiers will spontaneously unite to overcome all kinds of difficulties and even defeat the instructor...... This also achieves the purpose of training.
In fact, the current situation of the Chinese and US militaries is exactly in line with this training method.
The trouble on the side of the US military was resolved, and the meeting on the side of the Chinese troops continued.
"Division......" Staff Officer Liang continued: "Actually, this matter is not just as simple as a fight! ”
"What else can I do?" Zhang Chi asked.
"The troops have ideas for training the Yankees!" Staff Officer Liang said.
"Got an idea?" Zhang Chi couldn't help but turn his gaze to the group of leaders.
"Yes, Master!" Wu Yuhang first said: "We have all heard about it...... The Yankees didn't want us to win battles and steal their limelight, so they arranged for us to train American troops here! ”
"Yes, Master!" Lin Zuowang, the commander of the third regiment, answered: "Let's teach the Americans all the skills of fighting, let the Americans win the war, and let them be in the limelight...... So why are we still here? If you want me to say, we should save our hands and teach the Yankees something less! ”
"What do you think?" Seeing that only his fellow villagers didn't speak, Zhang Chi asked.
"I ...... I think it's good not to let us fight! The countryman replied: "Let the Americans fight with the Japanese to go to Zhongbei, if they want to be in the limelight, the important thing is that we will preserve our strength behind this!" ”
Zhang Chi couldn't help but nodded.
In fact, on the surface, it seems that the Chinese military has suffered a loss, and the US military has lost the opportunity to show off by training the US military in the future, but in fact it is a situation in which the fisherman is reaping the benefits.
Besides, it is basically impossible for the army to have combat effectiveness in a short period of time with "intensive training", and it is all piled up with blood and life in the battle with the enemy on the front line, so Wu Yuhang and Lin Zuowang's ideas are too simple, but the fellow villagers see this clearly.
"Let's put it this way!" After thinking about it, Zhang Chi said to several regiment commanders: "There are some things that can't be hidden, the Yankees are really trying to suppress our limelight now, and if it goes on like this, it is nothing more than two situations, one is that the American army fights smoothly and solves little Japan all the way, then we actually have made a great contribution by teaching the Yankees to solve the little Japan by teaching the Yankees to borrow the hands of the Yankees." The other is that the U.S. military hit a hard nail again, and in the end it had to let us ...... In either case, it doesn't hurt for us, does it? ”
Hearing this, several regiment leaders couldn't help but nod their heads.
"If I had to guess...... "Zhang Chi continued, "the more likely scenario is the second scenario, that is, we still have to go to the battlefield after all!" (To be continued.) )
