When it was about to get dark, the troops of the third battalion finally entered the camp one after another. The battalion commander smelled the aroma of meat in the car, and then looked at the chief of staff: "It seems that Deputy Battalion Commander Lin has prepared a lot for us."
What a sumptuous dinner.”
Of course, the chief of staff also wants to eat well. During these days of training, the food is indeed very average.
For example, because the troops move quickly, meals are naturally cooked in cooking carts. Cutting vegetables in the cart is completely different from cutting vegetables on the ground. Take potato and beef stew as an example. Both potatoes and beef are cut.
They come in different sizes. Some small potatoes are almost cooked and soft, while some large potatoes are almost hard.
But there is no other way. The cooking cart has a small space and can accommodate few people. The manpower will naturally be tight, and the operation is also difficult. It is good to be able to eat hot meals on time. It is not easy to worry about whether the dishes are delicious.
It's realistic.
But after thinking about it, the chief of staff still said: "Will this smell of rice make the soldiers lower their vigilance?"
When the battalion commander heard this, he looked at the chief of staff in surprise: "Why do you say that? Everyone is so tired. Have a good dinner. What does this have to do with lowering your vigilance?"
The chief of staff quickly explained: "I have no other meaning, because the smell of rice can make the soldiers feel happy and their mental state will naturally relax. Once the mind relaxes, the vigilance will naturally decrease accordingly."
When the battalion commander heard this theory from the chief of staff, he smiled helplessly and said: "You think too much. According to you, our soldiers don't deserve to eat good food when they are fighting in the wild?
And in my opinion, blindly pressuring the soldiers will make them lose their vigilance. If you don’t believe it, just watch and see whether the soldiers’ vigilance is high or low after eating a rich dinner.”
The chief of staff did not discuss this matter with the battalion commander. After all, it was not a big deal. Vigilance work was something that all key personnel needed to pay attention to at all times. If just a good meal could make them lower their vigilance, then there would really be a big problem.
So he planned to mention it in passing when he was reviewing his work in the evening. It was not a waste of time.
The leaders in the battalion command car quickly got out of the car. Lin Yi had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw the battalion commander and instructor coming down, he saluted and smiled and said: "Hello, leader."
When the battalion commander heard this, he smiled and patted Lin Yi on the shoulder: "You kid, you are so polite to us, you are a bit embarrassed."
Lin Yi smiled and said: "Isn't this out of politeness to the old leader? Come in quickly, let's go to the restaurant to eat."
As soon as the instructor entered the restaurant, he saw the six dishes and one soup placed inside. He covered his forehead and said, "Batalion Commander, as an instructor in charge of the life of soldiers, I have no face to see you. Look at the six dishes and one soup made by Xiaolin.
Just shoot me to pieces."
Lin Yi waved his hand quickly: "Instructor, you see what you said, I just happened to have some free time, and I thought that we have been training for several days, and we are exhausted, so I did something good and worked with you for a long time in the third camp.
Compared to life, I am nothing."
When the battalion commander heard what Lin Yi said, he smiled and said: "It seems that the battalion commander's class in the past six months has not been in vain. I have learned all the ways of the world."
Everyone was very satisfied with this meal.
The battalion commander put down the tea cup, patted his belly with satisfaction, and looked at Lin Yi: "Just now, the chief of staff told me that after everyone has eaten and drank enough, they will relax their vigilance mentally. I didn't believe it at first, but after eating well
After a few days of ordinary meals, suddenly eating a large amount of fish and meat will inevitably make you feel full, and you will be too lazy to move after eating and drinking. It seems that what the chief of staff said is indeed somewhat true."
Lin Yi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. I'll give everyone an hour to digest. After that, everyone will be more energetic."
Then he looked at the chief of staff: "In this training, I think the combat troops performed quite well. You also put in some effort."
The chief of staff waved his hand quickly: "Deputy battalion commander, if someone else said this, I would be very happy. But when you say this, I feel a little bit sarcastic. Compared with the logistics troops led by you, I am really inferior.
I'm a thousand miles away, so don't praise me."
Lin Yi shook his head: "I'm not sarcastic to you. The combat troops are eight companies, and the logistics troops are less than one company. In terms of command and dispatch, the combat troops are naturally more difficult.
Besides, you are all responsible for the combat missions. You have to deal with this enemy situation at one moment and that enemy situation at another time. If there are too many enemy situations, it will naturally slow down the marching speed."
The battalion commander interrupted at this time: "Okay, Xiao Lin, don't praise the combat troops. We seem to be busy, but after five days, we have only wiped out more than a hundred enemies.
And your logistics force has now wiped out two organic companies. Now I am a little afraid to go back and see Brigadier Meng. I am really afraid that the Brigadier will criticize me as worthless."
The chief of staff also frowned: "Yes, there are still two days of training. We have to find out some information about the enemy as soon as possible. After all, we have to eliminate a company of enemy troops. Otherwise, the performance of the combat troops will be worse than that of the enemy."
I'm in the logistics unit, it's really a joke if word spreads about it."
The battalion commander also nodded secretly. Although he did not advocate taking the initiative to attack, after all, the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. It is easy to suffer losses if we take the initiative to attack.
But he had to consider practical issues. The third battalion was a heavy-armed combined battalion, not a service support battalion. The ideological pressure of the combat troops must be taken into account, otherwise it would be a great obstacle to combat effectiveness.
Then he looked at Lin Yi: "Deputy Battalion Commander Lin, you have been stationed here for half a day. Did you find any enemy information? I didn't see any soldiers in the reconnaissance company. Have they all been dispersed?"
Lin Yi nodded: "Captain He found some traces in the plain area on one side of the station and is setting up defenses. There may be something harvested tonight."
The battalion commander laughed when he heard the news: "This Xiao He, just after he made a mistake, he was thinking about making a meritorious service. However, the plain area is easy to attack and difficult to defend. I'm afraid he made a mistake and paid attention. I'm really afraid that he is impatient."
Ate hot tofu.”
Lin Yi waved his hand: "That's not true. I have studied that area and found that it is indeed easy to defend."
The battalion commander's eyes lit up at this time and he stared at Lin Yi for a long time: "Did you deliberately give this credit to Xiao He? With Xiao He's character, how could he take the initiative to think about setting up defenses in the plain area? His
People should be spread all over the mountains and plains."
Lin Yi did not have to give the credit to Captain He, because whether it was reconnaissance or defense, it was all done by Captain He himself. He just gave an opinion. If it was just because of an opinion, just say
It would be a bit unfair to Captain He to give the credit to Captain He.
So he smiled and said: "Batalion Commander, you are worrying too much, Captain He is still capable."
