Chapter 242 Yu Xiaoqing Appears
Chapter 242 Yu Xiaoqing Appears
In this era, although Lu Cheng can rely on his own strong strength and advanced weapons and equipment to have enough self-protection power, he cannot directly affect the overall situation.
Therefore, Lu Cheng had to rely on the foresight of a time traveler to prepare for a rainy day and leave a retreat route in advance.
As time passed, the number of soldiers under Lu Cheng's command increased day by day, and soon reached more than 120 people, enough for a full company.
Lu Cheng did not continue to expand his troops, because he really could not afford to support more people. These more than 120 soldiers meant more than 120 mouths to feed, and the amount of food consumed every day was not a small amount.
Lu Cheng had almost killed all the prey near Zenda. If he wanted to get more, he had to go further away.
When Lu Cheng was conducting reconnaissance across the river recently, he would go hunting in the mountains and forests on the opposite side, bring back some prey, and have the soldiers transport it back. In addition, Lu Cheng also sent people to nearby villages and towns to buy some food and supplies from the people.
The next two or three months will be spent like this. When the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor and launch a full-scale attack on Southeast Asia, China will begin to organize an expeditionary force.
By that time, these defeated soldiers of Zenda will also be incorporated into the expeditionary force, and someone will provide them with food.
Among the batch of guns that Lu Cheng had obtained by making a fortune, most of the rifles had been distributed, and some box guns had also been given as prizes to soldiers with outstanding training results.
Among the more than 120 soldiers, only a small half of them are now armed. During normal training, basically two or three people use the same gun to practice shooting, as well as the care and maintenance of the gun.
Every two or three days, Lu Cheng would take people to the woods outside Zenda City to conduct wilderness survival training, so that they could become more familiar with the jungle environment and practice jungle combat in advance.
During this period, Lu Cheng would personally instruct them on how to identify various plants and animals in the wild, which ones are edible, which ones are poisonous, which ones can be used to replenish the body's water, which ones can be used to heal wounds, and so on.
These more than one hundred soldiers have completely gotten rid of the state of being defeated, regained their energy and spirit, and have become a little bit elite.
If we can lead them to a few more victories and build up their confidence, they will become true elites.
Not only are these defeated soldiers making progress, but Chen Xiaozui is also making great progress.
Under the effect of the strengthening pills, Chen Xiaozui's body quickly entered the secondary development stage, and his physical condition was also improving little by little.
Chen Xiaozui is not yet 20 years old and is still in the growth stage. He can absorb the medicinal effects of the strengthening pills well and improve his physical fitness quickly.
In less than a month, Chen Xiaozui's physical condition has improved significantly, reaching a level of about 11.5, and is still improving.
As her physical condition improved, Chen Xiaozui's figure also developed again. Under Lu Cheng's professional massage techniques, the jade bowl on her chest also grew a lot bigger and became more pleasing, making Lu Cheng love it.
Seeing that taking medicine and exercising have such obvious effects, and that Brother Lu is becoming more and more fond of his body, Chen Xiaozui has become more diligent in his exercise.
Not only that, after consuming enough bullets, Chen Xiaozui's marksmanship also improved significantly. He also learned fighting skills, dagger stabbing skills, etc. from Lu Cheng.
After three months, Chen Xiaozui's physical fitness was close to 14 points, and the improvement was getting slower and slower. In the future, it would only increase to about 14.5 at most, and it would be difficult to reach 15 points.
However, 14 points are already far beyond the standards of ordinary people. Even in later generations, after training, he can become a qualified special forces soldier.
It is not an exaggeration to say that with his 14-point physique, Xiaozui can completely play the role of a machine gunner.
As his physical condition improved, Xiaozui's performance at night also improved a lot. Lu Cheng became more and more satisfied with his physical strength, endurance, and body flexibility.
Moreover, Xiaozui was very obedient to Lu Cheng, dared to try, did whatever he was asked to do, and served Lu Cheng very well.
If it weren't for the need to improve the relationship with the soldiers under his command, Lu Cheng really wanted to stay with Xiaozui every day.
After all, how can it be more comfortable to be squeezed together with a bunch of rough guys than to hug your own wife?
Fortunately, the soldiers have done a good job of cleaning recently, and the shelter is no longer full of flies and fleas like before. Instead, it is somewhat like the dormitories in later military camps.
On December 1941, 12, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, and the Pacific War broke out. Then, the Japanese launched a full-scale war in Southeast Asia.
On December 12 of the same year, China and Britain signed the "Agreement on Joint Defense of the Burma Road". China began to prepare to form an expeditionary force to rush to Burma to assist the British Army in fighting against the Japanese Army.
One morning, in the city of Zenda, at a shelter for defeated soldiers.
The soldiers had just finished their morning exercises and were resting in the yard after breakfast when they suddenly heard the sound of a jeep outside.
Immediately afterwards, a gunshot rang out, immediately alarming all the fleeing soldiers.
"Gather, everyone gather, hurry up!"
All the soldiers in the yard looked at Lu Cheng. Lu Cheng knew what was going to happen next, so he stood up and gave the order: "Assemble!"
All the soldiers immediately put down what they were holding, picked up their weapons, came to the yard, and stood in three neat rows.
Not long after, a colonel wearing a colonel's uniform, a helmet, a horsewhip in his hand, and a pistol on his waist walked into the yard.
Seeing the deserters standing in a neat line in the yard and looking full of energy, the colonel was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he said, "My last name is Yu Xiaoqing. My superior told me that if I go to fight in Burma, I will be given a fully equipped reinforced regiment. I said I understood, why?"
After saying that, Yu Xiaoqing looked at everyone, and seeing that they were motionless and had no reaction, he continued, "Because what I want is my regiment. I want my comrades-in-arms to think of my regiment commander when they mention the name Yu Xiaoqing. When I think of my comrades-in-arms, they think of my regiment! My superior was angry, and he said that he would give you the Sichuan Army Corps.
He knew, and I knew, that the Sichuan Army was already defeated. But I said, OK! I want the Sichuan Army, because they fought the Japanese very bravely and fiercely. "
Listening to Yu Xiaoqing's speech, Yao Ma, the only veteran of the Sichuan Army in the team, felt a surge of pride in his heart.
Lu Cheng below was laughing in his heart. If he really wanted the Sichuan Army, why did he come to this deserter shelter to look for people? Among all the deserters on these three streets, there were not many people from the Sichuan Army.
Moreover, Yu Xiaoqing and the soldiers under his command never regarded these defeated soldiers as human beings. So why did they come here to give speeches and fool these defeated soldiers?
Lu Cheng really has no good feelings towards Yu Xiaoqing, who can only brainwash people and make big promises.
I heard that Yu Xiaoqing also admired Yue Fei and respected Qu Yuan.
But in fact, the more a person lacks something, the more he likes to talk about it.
Facts have proved that Yu Xiaoqing has neither the ability and loyalty of Yue Fei nor the integrity and courage of Qu Yuan who was willing to die. All he has is a self-touching and impassioned speech, and in the end he became another "Tang Ji"...
