Chapter 296 Melania Volunteer Army (Alliance Leader Extra)

It took Wang Zhong more than an hour to get to Kubinka.

As soon as the convoy entered the checkpoint at the main gate of the exercise field, Wang Zhong saw a group of people sitting in the square, and the girls from the cooking team were giving them food.

Pavlov led a group of officers out of the exercise field building that served as the city defense headquarters and headed straight for Wang Zhong's convoy.

Wang Zhong asked from a distance: "Why let them stay in the snow? It's so cold outside."

Pavlov looked bitter: "They didn't want to go into the house and insisted on waiting for you in the snow, so I had to let the cooking team give them hot bread and water."

Wang Zhong looked at the group of people.

At this time, many people had already discovered Wang Zhong, so the people sitting stood up one after another.

Wang Zhong was about to walk towards them, but suddenly remembered that he had not asked about the origins of this group of people, so he turned around and asked: "Who are they? It seems that they have not been issued uniforms."

Pavlov: "This is the first batch of Melania volunteers who were recruited. They have just been sent from the resettlement site. According to the priests who sent them, they don't want to go to other troops and ask to come under your command."

Wang Zhong: "Just because I took a photo with 'Miss Minerva'?"

Pavlov frowned: "Miss Minerva?"

Wang Zhong waved his hand: "My nickname for Melania's 'Princess of the Lost Country'."

At this time, all the Melania people stood up, so Wang Zhong walked towards them.

This group of people obviously received military training. When Wang Zhong walked in front of them, they had already completed the formation and looked at him in unison.

Wang Zhong: "Hello, Melania's volunteers."

After he said this, he thought he would get a uniform answer, such as "Hello, Chief" or something, but the Melania people just looked at him and didn't say anything.

An uncle who looked to be in his forties came up to Wang Zhong and saluted.

Wang Zhong: "Although you don't have a military uniform, you look like you have received military training?"

The uncle: "I was originally Melania's major general, and now I am elected as a commander by everyone."

From the word "commander", it can be seen that the uncle believes in secularism. Secularism believes that everyone is equal, so they are called commanders, and there is no difference between them and combatants. Together they are called commanders and fighters.

Wang Zhong held out his hand: "Hello, Major General. I heard from the priests that you must come under my command."

The Major General shook Wang Zhong's hand: "Greetings, Lieutenant General Rokosov. We did ask to come under your command, because it was you who rekindled our fighting spirit against Prosom. Many of us are ready to continue running eastward. We thought Ant would also fall, just like Carolingian."

Wang Zhong: "Carolingian did not stop resisting. General Dago's freedom Carolingian is still fighting. You should continue to fight too."

The Major General seemed a little ashamed and let go of Wang Zhong's hand: "We... have been hit by Prosom and lost our fighting spirit. After the fall of the motherland, Prosom has been advancing triumphantly. Although the United Kingdom did not fall due to the Royal Navy, it seems that there is no way to counterattack.

"When Prosom just tore up the non-aggression treaty and attacked Ant, we were still jubilant and thought that Ant's 5 million troops could destroy Prosom with a crushing blow. What did we see in the end? Even if we don't believe Proson's propaganda of annihilating 4 million people, the front line will not lie. "

Most Melania people could hear the major general's words, and many of them lowered their heads.

Major General: "Even if there is only a little hope, we will continue to fight, just in case there is no hope at all. For us, you are the first ray of light that breaks through the darkness. Many of us rekindled our fighting spirit after seeing the photo of you parading General Proson and others through the streets.

"So we hope to fight under your command and recover our motherland!"

Melania people responded in unison: "Recover our motherland!"

They shouted "Recover our motherland" in Melania language, and Wang Zhong could vaguely hear what they were shouting, after all, they were all Slavic languages.

Wang Zhong: "My hometown has also been lost, and I look forward to the day when I can return to it."

At this time, someone asked: "General, is it true that you carry the soil from your hometown with you?"

Wang Zhong: "Yes."

He picked up the lunch box that had been hanging on his body and held it high: "On the day when I dug this box of soil, my father and my good brother died in the Agusukov encirclement. I will fight back to my hometown and scatter this box of soil where they died."

Wang Zhong noticed that many people had tears in their eyes, and it seemed that they also had relatives who died under the iron hoof of Prosen.

The major general said on behalf of everyone: "Please let us join your team, we want to fight. The first batch of recruits are all those with military experience. We failed to defend the motherland, but we can recover it."

Wang Zhong: "I heard that there are many high school students among you?"

Major General: "Yes, because most people here believe in the secular Eastern Saint Church, so most of them come from cities, and there are many high school graduates. Because of this, most people know Ant language. You can add us to any unit."

Wang Zhong: "I hope those with mechanical maintenance experience will come out. You translate it in Melania language."

The major general did it immediately.

Soon a large number of people came out of the team one after another, and it seemed that there were thousands of people.

Wang Zhong was overjoyed: "So many!"

Someone among those who stepped out said to him: "Because many of them are from the same hometown as our factory, they were mobilized when the Prosens attacked us. As a result, we had just arrived at the garrison and had not started training before Vistulavarsi fell, so we had to run away."

Wang Zhong turned to the person who spoke: "Does your farm repair cars?"

"We make cars." The man replied.

Wang Zhong: "Good, very good. We are in great need of battlefield maintenance personnel now, and you will form our first battlefield maintenance battalion!"

"We want to fight the Prosens!"

Wang Zhong: "I understand your enthusiasm for firing directly at the Prosens. But war is not just about shooting at the enemy. Maintenance is also important. My troops will be equipped with tanks and tank destroyers that have very long production hours and are very precious. It takes too long to produce new ones.

"So you must recover the broken tanks and repair them under the hail of bullets! This is your battlefield, your battle. This is a very, very important battle, even more important than firing at the enemy.

"One of the advantages of the Prosens is their support capabilities. We must learn from them!" The more than 1,000 people looked at each other. Someone else said, "But we want to shed blood for Melania and be maintenance workers... We can't even drink and brag with others when we go back." Wang Zhong: "Why not? Didn't I just say that you have to drag the tanks back under the enemy's gunfire? Don't you know that in the Ante Army, the sacrifice rate of medics is second only to that of priests? You are the medics of the tanks! "It's decided. You are the first battlefield repair battalion, the first regular support force of the mobile army being planned. Okay, Pavlov, assign them barracks and get the documents for forming the troops ready!" Pavlov: "Okay, gentlemen, follow the staff officer, don't protest, the general has wanted to form a professional repair force for a long time. ”

Watching these people leave, Wang Zhong turned to the remaining Melania people.

“The rest of you will be organized into the 1st Melania Mechanized Infantry Division. I will equip you with the same equipment as other troops under my command. Since you are all high school students, most of you will become technical soldiers. At that time, you may be supplemented with a regiment of ANT infantry. ”

Major General: “Are we forming a separate army?”

Wang Zhong: “Yes, you can think of your own name, such as the Melania People’s Army or the Melania Restoration Army. As for your military flag, the background color should be red. My troops use red flags because the flags given to me by the local people in Loktov were stained red with blood.

“I think you can also use this idea. Melania paid the price of blood, and the red flag represents never forgetting these sacrifices.

“As for the pattern on the red flag, I think Melania’s white eagle can be used, although I mistook it for a big white goose at first.”

Laughter came from the queue.

The major general scolded: “Don’t laugh! ”

Wang Zhong waved his hand quickly: "Don't, I was just being funny, I'd be embarrassed if you didn't laugh."

This sentence really made a lot of people laugh.

Wang Zhong: "Then it's decided. Pavlov, reorganize them into a division according to the organization of the model division."

Pavlov sighed: "The model division hasn't been reorganized yet, you really can take on more work for me."

Wang Zhong patted his shoulder: "The more capable, the more work. Let's arrange dormitories for them first."

Kubinka already had a barracks for the troops participating in the exercise, which could accommodate an army at a time. When the Prosens approached, the city defense command planned to turn all the barracks into fortresses, so many windows were blocked. Now they need to "open windows" again to live in these barracks.

"Opening windows" activities are still good as collective labor tasks for new troops.

Wang Zhong waited for Pavlov to assign a staff to take all the Melania people away before asking: "How is the reorganization of the model division going? ”

Pavlov: "We are still short of technical soldiers. The navy sent more than 2,000 naval infantrymen, all of whom I converted into technical soldiers. But... you have both an anti-aircraft artillery battalion and a battlefield repair battalion. Do you need so many technical soldiers?"

Wang Zhong: "Yes. The enemy's air force poses a great threat to our fixed positions and soft targets. We can't always rely on magic arrows. Look at how many magic arrows and prayer hands the entire city defense headquarters has. Prayer hands won't increase even if they are mobilized. We have to wait for them to grow up slowly. In war, this is a non-renewable resource."

Wang Zhong paused and added: "And my Liuda may have a baby soon, and she will leave the front line."

Pavlov: "Okay. But we don't have enough anti-aircraft guns now, and the only anti-aircraft guns that can follow the tank troops are the vehicle-mounted quadruple machine guns."

Wang Zhong: "Don't you have any vehicle-mounted 72K anti-aircraft guns?"

"No. And to be honest, you know what the ground situation is in Ant. If you want to keep up with the tank troops, you need tracked self-propelled anti-aircraft guns. "Pavlov said.

Wang Zhong scratched his head: "I want to think of a way. Fortunately, the intensity of the war will be significantly reduced in the next few months, so we have time."
