587 The outcome is difficult to judge. Kong Jie’s verdict
While attacking, Duan Peng took the lead in imitating the ape, and screamed loudly.
The soldiers in the first class followed suit.
As a result, such strange sounds soon spread from the top of the hill where the Eastern Army was stationed to all directions.
This was the agreement Duan Peng made with the platoon leader Zhao Dachun when he led the team to set off.
If a squadron successfully attacks from the back, it will use this sound to convey the signal of a successful attack.
Outside the Eastern Army's position, Zhao Dachun, the platoon leader who had not yet been killed, heard the strange screams of Duan Peng and his party.
"It's Duan Peng, that brat succeeded!"
Zhao Dachong was ecstatic for a moment, and he roared and ordered: "Attack, all platoons attack. The Eastern Army's position has been severely damaged. Comrades, follow me and take the opportunity to fight! Kill——"
As they rushed to the side of the seventh company commander, the platoon commander shouted: "Company commander, quickly launch a full-scale attack. Duan Peng and his squad have already climbed up the cliff on the back of the Eastern Army. They may have severely damaged the Eastern Army's position." The seventh company commander Tao Shunmin was a little confused, "What are you talking about? Duan Peng has already led a squad to touch it? How is this possible?"
Zhao Dachun said: "There is no time to explain, company commander, we must seize the time to launch a general attack and coordinate Duan Peng and the others!"
The seventh company commander also had a decisive temper. He knew that the platoon commander could not be joking about this matter, so he immediately shouted:
"Grandma, if we continue to fight, we will lose anyway, and we will have to be a dead horse. Bugler, blow the charge horn for me, and everyone will launch an attack!"
"Kill——"
Less than half of the remaining Western Army soldiers heard the charge and launched a final fierce attack on the Eastern Army's positions without hesitation.
At the Eastern Army's position, several referees finally determined that the previous thirty-six grenades had taken away at least one-third of the Eastern Army's troops.
Moreover, the machine gun positions and grenade positions that were targeted by the Eastern Army were judged to be temporarily destroyed.
During the ruling, Duan Peng led a group of soldiers to seize a heavy machine gun from the Eastern Army's position at the cost of "sacrificing" two people. He then used his mouth to simulate the sound of the heavy machine gun and fired at the Eastern Army soldiers.
Let's open fire.
"Disperse quickly, grab the Japanese machine guns first, disrupt the Japanese defenses, and coordinate our main force's attack!"
Duan Peng roared angrily, becoming more courageous as he fought.
This scene also fell in the telescope field of view of Chu Yunfei and the others at the viewing platform.
All the officers of the Shanxi-Sui Army were very surprised.
Captain Sun Ming recognized at a glance that the leader was Duan Peng, who had previously performed Iron Sand Palm.
"What the hell, how come the Western Army suddenly appeared on the back of the Eastern Army?"
An officer from the Shanxi-Sui Army couldn't help but ask. Duan Peng and his party, who represented the Western Army this time, had red scarves tied on their arms. It was easy to notice the difference.
Chu Yunfei was the first to come back to his senses and said: "Brother Kong, if my prediction is correct, this Western Army is the small force that left the force that attacked on the right wing earlier."
Kong Jie nodded.
Chu Yunfei said: "Chu heard that Brother Kong's independent regiment has a small and elite combat commando team. The fighting style of this small group of Western troops in front of me is a bit like a commando team."
"From this point of view, if the surprise attack of this small combat force can cooperate with the actions of the regular army, it will indeed have unexpected effects at certain times."
Kong Jie smiled and said nothing, feeling the same in his heart, Duan Peng is indeed the material for special warfare.
No one at the exercise position expected that the defeat was already certain, and that they were about to be completely wiped out by the Eastern Army, representing the Eighth Route Army’s Western Army.
It will happen because of a small group of Western Army combat troops that suddenly penetrated and attacked the Eastern Army's position.
This resulted in a reversal of the war situation.
With the help of the Western Army combat squad led by Duan Peng, the damage to the Eastern Army's positions and the containment of firepower, the main force of the Western Army attacked decisively under the order of the Seventh Company Commander.
With the cooperation of both sides, before the Eastern Army rebuilt its machine gun and grenade fortifications, the Western Army successfully broke through the Eastern Army's position, and the two sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
The battle lasted for less than ten minutes, and finally Chen Quan, the chief referee in charge of the exercise between the Eastern Army and the Western Army, announced the end of the exercise.
Chen Quan's voice spread on the hilltop of the Eastern Army's position:
"I declare that this exercise is over. The Eastern Army, representing the Japanese squadron, has all been killed. The Eastern Army's position was successfully captured by the Western Army. This exercise simulated combat, and the Western Army, representing the Eighth Route Army's troops... was victorious!" p>
The shouts of the Western Army soldiers were immediately heard from all over the mountains and plains. The soldiers who originally stayed in the area where the Western Army died were also found dead, jumping and cheering.
Company Commander Zhang of the Eastern Army frowned and retorted unconvincingly:
"Battal Commander, I am not convinced by your verdict. Why did our Eastern Army lose?"
Chen Quan said: "The position has been breached, so it's not considered a defeat?"
Company Commander Zhang said: "Battal Commander, even if the position is breached, even if Duan Peng causes one-third of the casualties to our Eastern Army, we still have nearly half of our soldiers!"
"In a hand-to-hand handover, as little devils, we are no worse than the Western Army with bayonets!"
The Seventh Company Commander who arrived said with a stern look on his face: "Old Zhang, don't overcook the duck and only have a tough mouth."
"In this military exercise, what do you rely on to represent the Japanese squadron? Isn't it just that you occupy the commanding heights, have well-equipped equipment and powerful firepower, and bully our Western Army for not having artillery on hand?"
"But once our Western Army quickly breaks through your shooting belt, without the need for hand-to-hand combat, your Eastern Army will be nestled in that limited position. If our Western Army throws a round of grenades, you will be completely wiped out.
”
"What's the matter, does this battle still need to continue? Do you really want my comrades in the Western Army to smash your heads out with lumps of wood before you are satisfied?"
"You..."
Company Commander Zhang has nothing more to say, which is the truth.
The Western Army's attack opened a skirmishing line, and the personnel were dispersed, which could effectively avoid the sudden firepower of the Eastern Army.
The soldiers of the Eastern Army gathered in an area with a fairly limited area of activity.
Once the Western Army concentrates on throwing grenades and throws them in one round, the Eastern Army will be done with it.

In the end, the helpless Company Commander Zhang had no choice but to admit that he was unlucky. He just pointed at Duan Peng and cursed: "Seventh Company Commander, what are you so proud of? If it weren't for this brat Duan Peng, would our Eastern Army lose this battle?"
"This kid didn't play by the rules and actually led a group of people up from the cliff on the back side. If you ask me, his surprise attack cannot be counted."
The seventh company commander was amused: "Old Zhang, what you said is interesting, why doesn't this count?"
Captain Zhang said: "According to our plan before the exercise, there was no such thing as a surprise attack from the cliff on the back side. This guy Duan Peng violated the exercise regulations."
"Why don't I remember that there are regulations for this drill?" the seventh company commander asked.
For a while, the two company commanders were at loggerheads, and finally turned their attention to Shen Quan, the person in charge of the exercise.
Shen Quan had no choice but to investigate, and then he learned the whole story.
It turned out that Duan Peng had a sudden idea and led a team to attack from the back of the Eastern Army.
This squad's raid was not at all included in the Seventh Company Commander's original offensive plan.
"Speaking of which, it's your fault that nothing happened to you. During a drill, something happened while climbing a steep cliff from the back. How can you bear this responsibility?"
Chen Quan couldn't help but curse, but everyone could see that there was more joy in his words.
Who doesn’t know that the Second Battalion Commander has long been interested in Duan Peng, and has also booked Duan Peng to join the Second Battalion’s Sharp Knife Company directly after completing the training of the new recruit company!
Company Commander Zhang asked: "Battal Commander, please give me a warm word. Because Duan Peng didn't play according to the routine, how should the outcome be calculated?"
Shen Quan thought for a while, but also had a headache. He rolled his eyes and replied wittily: "I think the outcome of this exercise will be decided by the team leader."
Just like that, Shen Quan and his entourage rushed to the viewing platform and told Kong Jie and a group of Shanxi-Sui Army officers the whole story.
After hearing this, Kong Jie put the blame on Chu Yunfei and said, "Brother Chu, in my opinion, because Duan Peng's class was involved in this exercise, how should the outcome of the exercise be determined?" Chu Yunfei was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Brother Kong is the leader of the regiment. Naturally, it is Brother Kong who has the final say in determining the outcome. I believe that Brother Kong will definitely be able to help the soldiers of the Independent Regiment and everyone here.
A satisfactory answer to everyone."
This is a bit flattering.
Kong Jie did not refuse, and immediately arranged for communications troops, "The exercise is now over. Let all the new recruits rush to the training ground to assemble."
"Leaders, please——"
It took more than twenty minutes for Kong Jie and his party to return to the recruit training ground.
In front of Kong Jie and the officers of the Shanxi-Sui Army, four recruit companies and more than 400 soldiers stood neatly.
Kong Jie walked out of the team, stood in front of the new soldiers, and said loudly:
"Comrades, we, as well as the regimental commanders from the Shanxi-Sui Army, all saw today's exercise, and everyone performed very well. I am very pleased about this."
"In addition, there is another interesting thing. This time Duan Peng led a squadron to engage in a surprise attack. He suddenly reached the Eastern Army's position from the back and took away the Eastern Army's machine guns and grenade launchers in one fell swoop. This led to this
The Eastern Army turned victory into defeat."
"Several company commanders began to argue, talking about the issue of victory or defeat this time, saying that Duan Peng's actions this time violated the original exercise plan and the orders of his superiors."
"Here, I will give you a clear answer on this matter."
At this point, Kong Jie shouted: "Duan Peng!"
"Arrived!"
Duan Peng responded in the team, trotted up to Kong Jie, stood still, and saluted: "Please give instructions, captain."
Kong Jie said: "Let me ask you, according to the deployment of the seventh company commander, you were supposed to attack from the right flank with the same platoon. Why did you suddenly think of leading a group of soldiers to risk climbing up the steep cliff on the back? You should
Did you forget the seventh company commander’s order?”
Duan Peng replied without hesitation: "I have never forgotten the order to report to the regimental commander and company commander."
"It was just that while we were marching, I realized that a surprise attack from the flank would sooner or later be discovered by the Eastern Army, so I'm afraid it wouldn't have much effect.
I suddenly thought of the steep slope on the back of the Eastern Army, and thought that I could climb up from there, and maybe catch the Eastern Army by surprise."
"So I applied to the platoon leader and attacked from the back."
Zhao Dachun, the platoon leader, saw Kong Jie's sullen face and quickly helped: "Captain, Duan Peng really didn't make this matter on his own. I agreed with it."
Kong Jie still asked with a cold face: "Duan Peng, let me ask you, have you ever thought about climbing from the back and what would you do if you cause casualties to a squad of soldiers?
Have you ever thought that this is just an exercise, not a real battlefield, but you are making fun of the lives of the soldiers?"
When the platoon leader heard this, his face became anxious and he secretly thought that something was not right, the group leader was going to get angry.
Duan Peng stood up straight and replied: "Captain, you said that this exercise is an actual combat. I thought that if we can successfully attack from the back, we can definitely avoid more casualties." p>
"We all sacrificed our squad, which means we only lost twelve lives. But if we succeed, what we can avoid is dozens or even hundreds of lives of our Western Army soldiers!"
This voice is sonorous and powerful, moving forward.
Kong Jie's eyes collided fiercely with Duan Peng's.
Duan Peng did not flinch, and stood upright with his teeth clenched.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the regiment leader Kong Jie, waiting for his final verdict.
I saw Kong Jie, who had been staring at Duan Peng with a serious face, suddenly patted Duan Peng on the shoulder and laughed:
"Okay, okay, okay!"
After three good words in a row, Kong Jie continued loudly:
"Comrades, have you all heard this? Duan Peng said it well. Exercises are actual combat. Today's exercises are for tomorrow's battle."
"Our soldiers and commanders must proceed from reality. As long as it does not violate the general principle of destroying the enemy and completing combat missions, commanders at all levels have full power and should flexibly handle it according to the actual situation during the specific execution and completion of the mission.
”
"Our Eighth Route Army troops have always been the most adept at finding fighter opportunities on the move. They dare to penetrate into enemy-occupied areas in small groups like sharp knives, fight in the heart of the enemy's army, and set up ambushes along communication lines."
"What we are fighting is the most risky and thrilling battle."
"Such a battle requires our commanders at all levels to have flexible minds and solid military literacy and skills."
"So in future training, our commanders must oppose formalism and dogmatism. We should not train soldiers to become stupid machines that can only mechanically execute orders from their superiors. Instead, we must cultivate a combat style of mobile, flexible, intelligent and courageous troops.
."
"This is what an invincible army should look like. We must train each of our soldiers to be a tiger, a tiger that roars in the mountains and forests!"
"This is our independent group."
"So I declare that the outcome of this exercise is judged to be the victory of the Western Army. The first credit belongs to the squad of the Western Army who conducted the surprise attack this time. Comrade Duan Peng performed very well this time. I will also give him credit."
It’s here!”
As soon as the voice fell, the entire training ground burst into thunderous applause.
During this exercise, I was impressed by the fighting will shown by the recruits of the Eighth Route Army.
Marvel at the surprise attack led by Duan Peng.
I deeply agree with Kong Jie’s inspiring words just now.
Chen Quan said: "Comrades, what our captain said is so good! Everyone has heard it. In the future training and operations, we should follow Duan Peng as an example. We must obey orders, but we must not Be that wooden lump that binds your hands and feet."
"Do you remember everything?"
The soldiers responded loudly, "Remember——"
Duan Peng was still standing upright, with Kong Jie's words echoing in his mind. Looking at the smile on Kong Jie's face, his admiration for his captain grew even more in his heart...
