After Tang Dao explained and encouraged him, no one was dissatisfied.
Moreover, quite a few people also looked at Qian Dazhu, the youngest and most junior main infantry company commander, with admiration.
Regardless of a small group assessment, what the soldiers performed in the end was exactly what the squad leader and squad deputy needed most.
Just as Tang Dao said, the squad leaders he selected helped their teammates carry the load, which was why their personal cross-country running results only entered the top twenty and did not show much success.
But this also led to them basically winning in the subsequent stabbing sessions. It was precisely because they chose to help their slightly weaker comrades in the same group, so in the three minutes before the next stabbing battle, those who were weaker in physical strength
Their comrades-in-arms chose to support them. Just like the third group in which Sesame belongs, the three veterans of the Four Elements Battalion received unanimous support, so they could perfectly form a three-three formation.
Moreover, because of the help, the three groups of slightly weaker soldiers still maintained sufficient physical strength, and the advantages formed by the chain reaction continued to accumulate, so they almost completely defeated the fourth group with almost the same strength.
Of course, this is not absolute, luck is actually also very important.
Like the fourth group, Tong Dachui, a veteran of the Sixings Battalion who took the lead, actually did his best to help the two soldiers from the former security regiment who were lagging behind so that they would not fall behind. However, the extra ten kilograms of weight consumed him greatly. He should have
Although he was stronger, he failed to show his true strength in the stabbing session.
What's even worse is that there are only two veterans of the Four Lines Battalion assigned to Group 4. Even if the two former security regiment soldiers support them, there are five former veterans of the security battalion. Their opinions certainly do not form a dominant position, and their physical energy is already exhausted.
The formation was still at a disadvantage, so it was natural for them to lose.
However, this failure may lead to the 4th group, no, it should be said to be the advantage of the 3rd company, 2nd platoon and 4th squad in the future. If it had not failed, how would those veterans of the former guard battalion realize their own problems? It would be better than going to the battlefield.
It's much better to go up and die!
There is also Class 9 of Chu Weijiang who just made an opinion. The reason why Chu Weijiang ranked second in total score is that in addition to his excellent personal performance in the cross-country running assessment, they also won the group sprint confrontation, but that was also
It was a miserable victory. During the three-minute battle, they had three people left, and their opponents had two, only one more than their opponents.
If placed on a real battlefield, this infantry squad would be almost finished.
These, after Tang Dao's explanation, just let these elite soldiers think about how they can unite and survive in the cruel battlefield that will follow.
'This road is blocked!' is an inspiring slogan, but what can stop the Japanese invaders' guns and artillery is not only courage, but also lives, flesh and blood bodies that have the courage to put themselves on the line of defense.
On the battlefield, if you want to survive, courage, wisdom and luck are all indispensable.
The wisdom shown by Qian Dazhu was far beyond his age, and it was more important than Tang Dao, the highest military officer of the independent battalion, personally supporting him.
From the moment the two queues began to reintegrate and based on the expressions on the faces of the ten infantry squads that had been designated, we could tell that most of them were already convinced by their new company commander.
The results of this assessment led by Qian Dazhu were perfect, both against the top and bottom.
Yes, each infantry company does not have 9 infantry squads, but 10.
Because each infantry company added a small artillery squad and a heavy machine gun squad, Tang Dao decided after weighing it to reduce the number of people in each infantry squad and redeploy manpower to establish another infantry squad under the direct jurisdiction of the company headquarters.
This can form a formation that can be called a fire support platoon, adding four second lieutenant platoon leader positions.
There is no other way. The Independent Battalion is a fusion of two elite infantry battalions, the Four Lines Battalion and the Guard Battalion. Most of them are veterans. After two battles, they are basically promoted to two levels in a row, and some are even promoted to three levels. Even if the sergeants are divided into
Level three is not enough for promotion.
There are several second lieutenants who have to serve as deputy platoon commanders at the rank of lieutenants, while those who have been reused, like Qian Dazhu, serve as infantry company commanders at the rank of lieutenant. Comparing the two, it is obvious that there is too little respect for their military exploits and military ranks, and it is easy to cause confusion.
Psychological imbalance.
There are four more positions, but those people can just be arranged.
Tang Dao is no longer the small platoon leader who only needed to convince three squad leaders to defeat an infantry platoon in the past. Instead, he is the commander of an infantry battalion with nearly 1,200 people. Coordinating and balancing people's hearts is also what he needs to learn and improve.
Of course, establishing a fire support platoon and adding a few lieutenant positions to balance people's hearts is only one of them.
More importantly, apart from the three infantry platoons that must be at the forefront on the battlefield, the infantry company commander also has an infantry squad of 12 people in his hands. That is his reserve team, which can be used at the most critical moment.
Put this infantry squad on top.
The reserve team is extremely important to any armed force. If you devote all your strength to the battle at the beginning and have no reserves, then the armed force will be as strong as steel, but it will lose a lot of toughness.
It's like a knife. Hardness is not the only indicator to judge the performance of a knife. The toughness of steel is the first consideration along with hardness. To simply understand hardness and toughness, hardness is the ability of steel to resist deformation, and toughness is
The ability of a tool to resist breakage after being impacted or deformed.
If the hardness is low, the tool will curl easily, and if the toughness is too low, the tool will break easily.
On the battlefield, the reserve team is the guarantee of the resilience of an armed force. The opponent will be disappointed to find that every time it seems that he is just a little bit close to breaking through the position, but he is always just a little bit short.
Of course, there are also objections, because this will weaken the strength of the infantry platoon. The original 14-man infantry squad will be reduced to 12 people, and it will suffer a loss against a Japanese squad of 15 people.
What's more, independent battalions will not operate separately. One infantry company cannot sustain it. There are still special agent companies and baggage companies affiliated to the battalion headquarters. They are the real reserves and can support the front line at any time.
But Tang Dao believed that it was still worth it, because he knew best what the battlefield that the independent battalion would face in the future would look like.
With the end of the large-scale battle, the battlefield that the independent battalion will go to will no longer be a battlefield where both sides frequently invest thousands or even tens of thousands of people.
At that time, the infantry company will become an independent combat unit. If it cannot learn to handle the battlefield with its more than 100 men, it will be eliminated.
The current battlefield is their last chance for 'internship'.
Therefore, Tang Dao still insisted on his decision. An infantry company has ten infantry squads, 9 infantry squads are allocated to three infantry platoons, and 1 infantry platoon is reserved for the fire support platoon, which serves as the guard of the artillery squad and the heavy machine gun squad.
It is also the final reserve of the entire infantry company.
Each infantry squad has 12 people, including 1 squad leader, 1 squad deputy, 1 precision shooter, 2 light machine gun shooters, 1 grenade shooter, and 6 riflemen.
During the battle, the squad deputy commanded six riflemen in front, the squad leader commanded the light machine gun fire team and grenadier soldiers in the rear, and the precision shooters were more flexible and moved around the entire infantry squad.
In the end, the facts also proved that elites like Si Xingying, who came from the Royal Forest Army, did have abilities that matched their status.
Not only were 80% of the 10 squad leaders and deputy officers selected by the 10 infantry squads of the third company were veterans of the Fourth Line Battalion, the company-level officers of the other three infantry companies also unanimously selected the most junior commanders.
, and most of them come from the original Si Xing Camp.
The sergeants and officers who had seen the assessment process knew clearly that the results of the three infantry companies that were taken out for assessment were almost the same as those of the third company. Those who were originally unconvinced had basically disappeared.
Compared with selecting squad leader and squad deputy, two roles that require both sufficient force value and unity and leadership, the choice of precision shooter is undoubtedly much easier.
After going through the huge physical exertion of the cross-country running test and stabbing, after just resting for less than ten minutes, the shooters who signed up for the shooting test had to face the dimmed wooden target 200 meters away.
Because time is urgent, there are not enough rings on the wooden board to draw ten rings. There are only three rings. The one inside the big ring of the fist is counted as 10 rings, the outer ring is 8 rings, the outer ring is 5 rings, and the outer ring is not continued.
calculate.
Each person only has a chance to get five bullets.
From high to low, choose the best.
There are 20 people, almost all veterans of the Sixing Battalion and the Garrison Battalion.
The results are also uneven, with the best getting 42 rings and the worst only getting 5.
But even the worst, no one can laugh at it. Under dim light, it can hit a target 200 meters away that looks no bigger than a helmet-sized target to the naked eye. Even if it only hits one out of five shots, it will hit an independent battalion of more than 1,100 people.
Only a quarter of people can barely do it.
Of course, no one is dissatisfied with this kind of assessment result that relies solely on performance.
However, after all the assessments of the third company were completed, the number of people watching outside the station not only did not decrease, but actually increased.
