The soldiers didn't know how long they still had to go, but the habit of sleeping first and then working really puzzled him. Generally speaking, shouldn't they work while they're still not sleepy?
, why do you go to bed first? And you sleep for six hours at a time?
But being able to sleep more is naturally a good thing. After hearing the order, many soldiers didn't care too much. Their tired bodies made them unable to continue thinking, so they lay down on the ground and began to fall asleep.
Some old squad leaders feel that this is abnormal. They have been in the army for a long time and have experienced many more drills or drills than this group of new recruits. On the battlefield, any order given by the commander will have certain consequences.
What is considered, especially some abnormal orders, is something that has been carefully considered.
They are the backbone of the company. What is the backbone? If you compare a company to a person, the company commander is the brain and the squad leader is the bones and joints. They hold up the skeleton of the company. If there is no squad leader, then it is just a team at best.
It's just a pile of rotten meat, it won't do anything.
Therefore, they had to maintain an absolute consensus with the company commander, so for a while, several old squad leaders found the company commander and asked why they did this.
Company Commander Chen did not dare to say that there would be enemy situations later, not because he was afraid that these squad leaders would not be able to bear it, but because he felt that it was unnecessary. Now was the time to sleep and rest. If he told them his conjecture, they would be on tenterhooks.
Being on tenterhooks greatly affects the quality of sleep. If you don't get enough rest, your combat effectiveness will naturally weaken the next day. If the squad leader cannot serve as a strong bond, then the soldiers' combat effectiveness will definitely not be improved.
So Company Commander Chen waved his hand: "Don't think too much about it. This is an order from the deputy battalion commander. Not only you, but also me must follow it. Go back to sleep as soon as possible."
When the squad leaders heard that it was the deputy battalion commander's order, they didn't dare to ask any questions. Deputy battalion commander Lin was the superior of the company commander, and his perspective of observing the problem was not in the small company of the reserve team, but in the reserve team.
It’s time to think about the problem from the perspective of the entire logistics unit, or even a battalion.
There are eight companies in a battalion, and there are too many complicated things to do. As a small squad leader, I can't think about such hierarchical issues anymore.
So they all resigned and went back to sleep peacefully.
Lin Yi was very happy when he saw this scene. He didn't expect that the old squad leaders in the reserve team would be so concerned about the company's affairs. With the help of these old squad leaders, the reserve team could not unite even if they wanted to.
Lin Yi also patted Company Commander Chen on the shoulder at this time, "Don't think so much. Soldiers will block you, water will cover you, and there will be nothing you can't get through. Besides, I am the deputy battalion commander here. If the sky falls, I will be the first to bear it."
, what are you afraid of? Just sleep peacefully."
Company Commander Chen naturally knew how important Lin Yi's promise was. He was his subordinate, and with his immediate superior here, he didn't have to worry anyway.
So, I found a slightly flat place and lay down directly. At this time, a platoon leader came over carrying several blankets: "Deputy Battalion Commander, Company Commander Chen, here are these for you."
Lin Yi saw that the blankets were limited and waved his hand: "Send them to the wounded. It's not cold now, so sleeping on the ground will be cooler. After you send the blankets, you should go to bed quickly."
The platoon leader was surprised to see the deputy battalion commander not asking for a blanket. It was rare for a battalion leader to eat and sleep with the soldiers like the deputy battalion commander.
In fact, platoon commanders don't spend much time in the company. They basically only work in the company headquarters. More often, they go to the battalion headquarters to help. This is why the non-commissioned officer has a better relationship with the company commander.
Because he has a normal relationship with his platoon leader.
After all, relationships can only be maintained by frequent exchanges. Unless they are familiar with each other, one is a superior who can be seen every day, and the other is a superior who is only seen every once in a while. Everyone knows which one is better.
Get closer.
Precisely because the platoon leader helps the battalion headquarters a lot, he naturally sees the battalion leaders often, and he naturally understands how well the battalion leaders are treated.
To put it bluntly, whether it is a battalion commander traveling or a battalion leader traveling, it is correct to say that they are cheering in front of each other and supporting each other.
As long as you can see them, there must be several people following you. Of course, this is human nature. After all, in charge of an army of 1,800 people, the status of a battalion leader is still very high.
The deputy battalion commander didn't want blankets, so the platoon commander couldn't force them. He could only give blankets to a few wounded people in accordance with the deputy battalion commander's request.
Six hours flew by.
This time, Lin Yi woke up naturally. He got up and stretched. He found that Company Commander Chen was not up yet, so he lifted his feet. The kick didn't matter. Company Commander Chen directly took out his pistol and made a warning posture, which also scared Lin Yi.
Jump: "What are you doing? Why are you holding a gun while you sleep?"
Lin Yi knew that there were no live ammunition in Captain Chen's pistol, but regardless of whether there was live ammunition or not, sleeping with a gun was not a normal thing in itself.
Especially when you are sleepy, if you don't play well with guns and something goes wrong, it would be a big deal.
Company Commander Chen reacted when he heard Lin Yi's roar, quickly put the pistol back into the holster, and then stood up: "Deputy Battalion Commander, is it time to start work?"
Lin Yi did not answer Company Commander Chen's question, but asked: "Did you sleep well this night?"
Company Commander Chen scratched his head: "I was already asleep, but when I was asleep, I had a dream. I dreamed that the enemy was coming, which scared me awake. So I took out the gun and shook my hand.
But don’t worry, deputy battalion commander, I didn’t even insert the magazine, just for peace of mind.”
Lin Yi did not blame Company Commander Chen. After all, the pressure in the past few days was indeed great, whether it was physical or psychological, so he said: "I will inform the platoon leaders of each squad later, and we must focus on the battle after opening the road.
Deployment status.
Now that the road is not opened, the enemy cannot get through, but once the road is opened, the enemy will never miss this opportunity to make us physically and mentally exhausted, so we must pay more attention."
Company Commander Chen nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, deputy battalion commander, even if you don't remind me, I will tell you. I've had a nightmare all night, and I don't dare to take it lightly."
Lin Yi said 'hmm': "Then you go quickly, I will organize the staff to work first."
At this time, the logistics section chief at the other end was also organizing people to clean up. They learned from the battalion headquarters the overall situation of the current logistics troops, and also knew how much hardship Lin Yi had led the logistics troops. Naturally,
Don't dare to neglect and start cleaning up vigorously.
But he had very few people under his command, so the cleanup was very slow. In addition, the deputy battalion commander had just contacted him and asked him to be careful to pile up the garbage and leave some holes when clearing the road.
This puzzled the head of the logistics department, but he couldn't help but understand that the orders from his superiors had to be followed, so he had no choice but to dig some holes in the garbage heap.
