Chapter 2081 Recruit Welcome Ceremony
As the pressure between the First Army Division and the Japanese army increases, or the Japanese army believes that it cannot win on the Chinese battlefield, it will inevitably adopt extreme methods!
Poison gas may be widely used on battlefields.
The First Army Division does not have the capacity to require all soldiers to use gas masks.
"Can you let Jiang Wenzheng think of a solution first?" Matthew Wen suggested.
The gas masks that China has are definitely not enough for the Chinese army.
If China wants to have enough military aid supplies, it can only find ways from overseas.
Judging from the current biggest threats to the First Military Division, there are only two things that give them the most headaches.
First, the Japanese aircraft in the sky seemed to be in uninhabited territory every time.
The second is the Japanese gas bombs.
"Okay, send them a telegram and let them think of a solution first." Zhao Zhiguo said, "By the way, contact Jack, maybe he can help."
Since foreigner Jack returned, he hardly stayed in his own country for long. He traveled by boat and car to every country where war broke out.
In southern China, he also sold a lot of weapons, but most of them were sold to warlord forces. The Central Army mainly still used Soviet-style weapons.
Although he travels all over the world, Jack does make a lot of money.
"Yeah, why did I forget about this kid? He must be a popular drinker all over the world." Yao Peng patted his head.
"Gas bombs, anti-aircraft weapons, if you have submachine guns and useful machine guns, you can also ask him to get a batch."
Zhao Zhiguo asked Yao Pengju to be responsible for contacting Jack.
Of course, Jack is now traveling all over the world, so it will definitely take some time to get in touch with him.
As long as gas masks can be used by frontline troops, they can reduce a large number of casualties among the First Army Division troops.
"Old Zhao, is this little foreigner reliable?" Matthew said.
Jack didn't have much affection for them, and he was very profit-seeking.
In other words, for money, he can do many things.
Zhao Zhiguo had funded him part of the money at the beginning, but if the little foreigner refused to admit it, there was nothing they could do.
"After this matter is over, won't we know whether he is reliable or not?" Zhao Zhiguo said.
As for whether Jack is really reliable, Zhao Zhiguo has no idea.
But after all, Jack’s side is a path. Whether you can take this path will only be known after you try it.
Matthew nodded. In the war years, no one could be sure of anything: "I'll send a telegram to the rear. It's time to add some troops to the Third Brigade and Lu Zheng."
Zhao Zhiguo sat on the chair and did not move for a long time. He had been thinking about the problem of Japanese gas bombs.
Gas bombs are a thorny problem and they don't have any countermeasures.
Even if Zhao Zhiguo had poisonous gas bombs in his hands, he would not dare to use them casually because this was on Chinese soil.
The use of poison gas bombs may pose a threat to the Japanese army, but it may also cause a large number of innocent Chinese people to die from the poison gas.
There was no trace of blame in the telegram sent from the headquarters to the Third Brigade.
"The commander and the political commissar said that the new recruits for us will arrive soon, so we should immediately restore the two companies we lost and then be more vigilant."
The communications soldier read the contents of the telegram in the headquarters of the Third Brigade.
"It seems that someone is saying that I am a related household again. If such a big problem occurs, the headquarters will not punish us." Zhao Ziming smiled bitterly.
Zhao Zhiguo is their immediate boss and Zhao Ziming's younger brother.
Several officers in the Third Brigade also laughed. Everyone in the Third Brigade knew about the relationship between Zhao Ziming and Zhao Zhiguo.
But no one has ever doubted that Zhao Zhi would protect Zhao Ziming.
"If the commander and political commissar don't blame us, we have to reflect on ourselves, especially me as the brigade commander," Zhao Ziming said.
Overnight, the strength of the two companies was gone. It was impossible for Zhao Ziming not to feel distressed and feel guilty.
The soldiers of these two companies are also the elite of the Third Brigade, and they all followed Zhao Ziming.
Even if the Japanese army used poison gas, they never escaped or gave up their position, but fought to the death with the Japanese army.
It was impossible for Zhao Ziming not to feel uneasy when such a good unit was lost.
"First of all, I want to review this matter. It is because I, the brigade commander, was negligent. I thought that the Japanese army had no way to deal with us and would not attack us easily."
Zhao Ziming reflected on his ideological paralysis to the officers under his command.
After a long confrontation with the Japanese army without any progress, it is indeed easy for people to relax.
After all, it is human nature to like comfort.
If you live a comfortable life for too long, it will be easy to let go.
"Secondly, starting from today, all our soldiers must have the subconscious reaction to wear gas masks." Zhao Ziming said.
The Japanese gas bombs hit them when they were unprepared.
However, many soldiers did not wear gas masks when they woke up, but went straight to fight with the Japanese army.
Chinese soldiers' awareness of reaction to poisonous gas is still too weak.
Although the headquarters has repeatedly emphasized that it is necessary to be prepared to deal with Japanese poison gas bombs on the battlefield, soldiers lack training in this area.
If the soldiers put on gas masks first, more soldiers staying in position would survive.
"These two companies are gone. If they are reorganized, morale will definitely be affected. Let their deputy commander and chief of staff go to these two companies to keep an eye on them. Our brigade, whether it is an old company or a newly formed company, will
Never stretch your hips when it comes to combat effectiveness!"
The four main brigades are the faces of the First Military Division. Every combat company under these four brigades must be in desperate situations and still dare to fight the Japanese army.
On the battlefield, when new soldiers are brought in, the troops will hold a simple ceremony for them.
When new recruits were added to the frontline troops, the scene they saw was naturally quite shocking. It was definitely different from the battlefield they imagined.
Moreover, the new recruits were neatly dressed in new military uniforms, their faces were cleanly washed, and their bodies were slightly stiff, which was incompatible with the battlefield environment.
The veterans in Area 5 smiled when they saw the new recruits coming in.
The recruits looked at these dirty veterans and kept frowning.
"New brothers are here!" a company commander shouted to his subordinates, "Our company is under special care today and has added twelve new brothers."
The veterans cheered and crowded up.
"I'll give you five minutes!" the company commander said with a smile.
Veterans certainly know what to do in these five minutes.
When the company commander came back, the recruit's clean cheeks had turned dark, and the marks of Wuzhishan were everywhere on his clothes.
"Don't think this is someone bullying you. The little Japanese soldiers are good at shooting. The cleaner you are, they will think you are a high official."
The dirt on the battlefield can also be a form of protection at some point.
Although consciousness is simple and crude, it is a kind of protection for soldiers.
Moreover, the new recruits who came in were very curious. They had never seen the Japs before, so they could not restrain their curiosity and wanted to lie down on the bunker and look outside.
