Chapter 921 Sand Pinched Together
Shang Zhen actually just came here. Originally, he didn't want to interfere in such a mess.
I am not a member of the Forty Army, so I can't control the soldiers of other people's Forty Army.
He thought that even if Hao Xiazi was killed, there would still be an officer or something like that, but he never thought that the platoon leader and second platoon leader would also be killed. Although the Japanese army's black guns did not kill many people last night, they still killed many people. Hao Xiazi's company has lost its backbone.
When he saw the messy situation and was wondering if he should take care of it, he saw that Cai Chengwan actually came forward.
Shang Zhen was shocked when Cai Cheng Wan came forward. Cai Cheng Wan could have sold hundreds of strong men just to survive. If this kid managed to gain the leadership of this army again, he would not be able to do anything at the critical moment. Sell these soldiers!
That's why Shang Zhen stood up.
As a veteran, Shang Zhen certainly knows which tricks soldiers are most likely to suffer from.
Whether it's the northwest soldiers or the northeast soldiers, even the soldiers from other factions, don't think that their quality is very high. Sometimes they need a strong officer to train like a cow, horse or sheep.
In the long run, this is called inconsistency between officers and soldiers, and it will definitely affect morale, but at least in the short term, the situation can be maintained.
Because of this, Shang Zhen deliberately imitated the way veterans like Wang Laomao usually spoke.
Of course, although he felt awkward himself, outsiders couldn't feel it. In their eyes, what Shang Zhen said was natural and smooth. For Northeastern people, that's not what they look like!
"I said, who is that? Where are you dangling around?" Shang Zhen saw that most people were busy, but a few veterans were still looking at him coldly, and Cheng Wan and that Caihu is also among them.
You don't need to guess this to know that people are not convinced because they don't want to listen to their orders.
"Fuck, why should I listen to you?" A veteran said when Shang Zhen walked over.
When he said this, the faces of the veterans looking at Shang Zhen became even worse.
"It's useless to clean it up!" Shang Zhen was not polite, "You gave me the command, why did you go there so early?"
Shang Zhen's words left the veteran speechless. Yes, if he wanted to take command, why would he have gone there earlier?
At this time, Shang Zhen said again: "No one cares about you, you can do whatever you like. I'm not your leader. It's not like I've never been a company commander or an official!"
I'm just organizing the brothers temporarily. When we find the camp, we can break up and go our separate ways. "
.
After saying that, Shang Zhen turned around and walked away.
No matter how these veterans performed, Shang Zhen did not want to conflict with these veterans.
It's not necessary at all. Veterans are all one. If you are a veteran with a strong collective concept, if you knock down one of the veterans, it will inevitably arouse the hatred and resentment of other veterans.
This situation is like their group of veterans. Tiger pillars often make mistakes, and sometimes it is inevitable that they will be grouped together by other veterans.
But no matter how we gather them together, that is a matter for our own insiders. Even if there are tiger pillars, what if we let outsiders bully us? Do you see the veterans getting together to fight in groups?
Shang Zhen himself is a veteran. He knows very well what a veteran is, and he has no intention of being the leader of these soldiers.
He saw that the veteran didn't listen to him, so if you don't listen, you won't listen. I'm too lazy to care about you.
It's just that he wants to leave the veteran but won't let him go.
"Didn't you ask what we were doing in the first place? What? Get out of here as soon as you can't afford to offend him?" the veteran teased.
At this time, the conversation between Shang Zhen and these veterans was noticed by others, and some recruits and veterans stopped to look over.
When Shang Zhen saw that this matter was about to make a big fuss, he could only turn around and said loudly: "You don't have to be a bastard with me. Isn't it fun to have a quarrel with your own people?
If you have the ability, you can show your true ability by fighting against the Japanese. That can be regarded as avenging Captain Hao and the brothers who died in the battle. You just killed a few little Japanese and dared to shout in front of me? "
Shang Zhen's words blocked the veteran's mouth again.
When Shang Zhen and Ma Erpao were together, Shang Zhen's marksmanship was very accurate and he shot and killed many Japanese soldiers. This matter had been spread by Ma Erpao.
Now when Shang Zhen mentions his record against the Japanese, what can the veteran say? They also have self-awareness. If what Ma Erpao said is true, he really can't kill as many imps as Shang Zhen.
Shang Zhen's words were also very level. They all had subtext. Even if he didn't say it explicitly, others would be able to think of it.
Anyway, Blind Man Hao was beaten to death by the Japanese army. If you have the ability to avenge Blind Man Hao, then I will admire you very much.
Now that you are not good at fighting Japanese enemies, you cannot avenge Blind Man Hao. If you want to call me, I will ignore you? I'm too lazy to care about you!
This time, after Shang Zhen finished speaking, he turned around and walked away when he saw that the veteran had nothing to say. The veteran was already a little embarrassed.
It is said that all soldiers must obey those who can fight. This is one thing, but according to the Northeastern people, it is also important to speak rationally.
What is truth? That directly captures the essence of the problem.
What Shang Zhen said was nothing more than two points. When there was chaos just now, you didn't take the lead and I took the lead. I killed more Japanese devils than you.
These are all facts, and the facts are irrefutable!
Shang Zhen walked away and continued his business, but those veterans were still a minority after all, and most of the soldiers obeyed Shang Zhen's orders.
Not every veteran is as pretentious as those few veterans. What Shang Zhen proposed is only good for them and not harmful, so why don't they listen?
Besides, Shang Zhen had said loudly before that he would break up with them as soon as he brought everyone to the camp. It was impossible for him to let veterans like them become cannon fodder, so what's the harm in them listening to Shang Zhen for the time being?
Compared with the veterans, the recruits preferred to listen to Shang Zhen.
Even though Shang Zhen only led them to train for a few days, Shang Zhen never beat them or scolded them. Shang Zhen taught them tactical moves and saw that they couldn't learn them, but he made the samples for them first. look!
For example, let's crawl forward. There is a muddy pond in front of us, but Shang Zhen crawled first to show the recruits!
If Shang Zhen can be regarded as an instructor, then which recruit would not be convinced by such an instructor?
Moreover, Shang Zhen told them at the time, do you want to be cannon fodder? If you don’t want to be cannon fodder, how about you develop your true skills without enduring hardship?
Anyone can hear a good word, so how could the recruits not hear that Shang Zhen was doing it for their own good? So now at least Shang Zhen is commanding the new recruits, and the new recruits have no objections!
With Shang Zhen's assignment, everything became orderly, and orderliness means efficiency. Soon the soldiers who went to search came back, not only bringing back the news that there were no more Japanese troops in the village, but they also brought back the results of Shang Zhen's battle.
"Hehe!" Ma Erpao, who went to search, grinned happily when he saw Shang Zhen. Then he looked at the others, "Guess how many little Japs the Northeast guys blew up in that house?"
"How many?" a soldier asked.
"Six!" Ma Erpao said loudly, and stretched out his hand. He stretched out his fingers with a palm, and then added a thumb to his right hand. Five plus one makes six. .
"Only six." When everyone was looking at Shang Zhen with admiration, the veteran who was a little unhappy with Shang Zhen before said.
"Idiot Ma, don't be so pretentious here. How many Japanese soldiers have you killed?" Ma Erpao didn't like that veteran.
When Ma Erpao said this, the veteran fell silent.
The old soldier's original name was Ma Chuncai, but the veterans had long called him Ma Chuncai.
"Whoever beats more brats will be more capable. Anyway, before I return to the camp, I will listen to the Northeast guys!" Ma Second Artillery took a stand.
Obviously, even though he had led his troops out to search earlier, he had already gotten the news that Shang Zhen had stated his intention to take everyone to the camp and then broke up.
Ma Erpao was a veteran, and naturally some veterans agreed with his statement, such as Lu Yifei. The recruits remained silent, but the admiration for Shang Zhen in their eyes was also undisguised.
That's what happened in the village. The soldiers carried the bodies of the fallen officers and soldiers out of the village, always trying to bury the brothers who had fought side by side.
But in the marching team, Shang Zhen secretly said to Ma Erpao: "You are really good. Are you Chinese?"
"What's wrong?" Ma Erpao didn't understand.
"Which Chinese can sign six like you do, playing with five plus one, isn't six this?" Shang Zhen smiled while gesturing.
Yes, the Chinese have sign language. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ninety can be expressed with one hand using conventional gestures. How can one use two hands?
"Of course I know, hehe, if I gesture like that, doesn't it appear that you have killed a lot of little Japs?" Ma Erpao replied.
Shang Zhen couldn't help but laugh.
Doesn't it seem like too much? If I told you how many Japs I killed, I would scare you to death! You should call me bragging!
