Dear husband:
It's been more than two months since we last met. Why do I feel like it's been two years? From this point of view, marriage was really not a good thing. If you weren't in this world, I would still be a happy, carefree little girl. Your sudden appearance changed my fate. You enemy, how did I fall into your trap? You must be a veteran. You must have dealt with many women before me. Your experience in love is no less than your experience in the battlefield. Otherwise, how could you be so cunning and calm to deceive me?
The war is about to end and peace is about to arrive. Perhaps you will meet many outstanding women in the future. They will worship heroes like me. Would he fall in love with anyone he saw? Listen to me, Old Li. I'm warning you. If you change your mind and dive into the flowers like a bee, I'll fight you to the death. You have my stamp on you. You're mine, and I won't give up what belongs to me. Besides, you should be content. Your wife is not inferior to others. What else do you want? So you have to wait for me obediently, especially when you see other female comrades. You are not allowed to be distracted, not allowed to be mischievous, and not allowed to take the initiative to strike up a conversation. You have to be serious and not look sideways, just like Liu Xiahui who is not disturbed. Did you hear that?
Our hospital has temporarily moved to Nanjing, and it is said that it will move south. I heard from the comrades in the Ye Si garrison that you encountered bandits on your way to Fujian and went to the meeting alone to destroy the bandits 'nest. That's great. This has become a legendary story and is being discussed everywhere. Even the squad leader surnamed Zhang had benefited from it and made a second-class contribution. He was promoted to deputy company commander as an exception. When they mentioned you, they simply prostrated themselves in admiration and treated you as a god. I thought to myself, what is this? It was just a small matter that my husband did on the way. My husband is very capable. Just like what the ancient books say, taking the head of a general in an army of ten thousand horses is as easy as taking something out of a bag. I'm proud of you, darling.
Let me tell you something. I met my high school classmate Feng Nan in Nanjing. We were good friends when we were in school. She was a talented girl and was now studying at Jinling Women's University.
She was a backbone of the student union and an amateur social actician. We chatted for the whole night. I told her about our love experience and also introduced you to her. She was fascinated by what I said and envied me. She said that if she could find a husband like him, it would be worth it even if she died. Seeing her fascinated look, I felt very uneasy. Good friends share happiness and hardship together. " I'm so happy right now, but she doesn't have this kind of happiness. This is so unfair. If it was anything else, I could give it to her, but this is my husband. I can't give it up. I suddenly thought of your old partner, Zhao Gang. Isn't he still single? Ever since I met you, I've heard you mention him many times. Other than that, my husband has never praised anyone like that. Someone who can make my husband admire her so much must be an outstanding person. I immediately decided to introduce Zhao Gang to Feng Nan. Although she didn't say anything after listening to my introduction, her face turned red. You should also mention it to Zhao Gang. If he doesn't object, we'll make arrangements. Alright, I've been talking for a long time, so I'll write it here. Please take care of yourself. We'll meet soon. Hug you. Your wife Tian Yu
"Hey! Old Zhao, is that you? I'm Li Yunlong. What are you doing?”"Nonsense, who isn't busy? Don't treat yourself like a green onion. Who's going to eat you with sauce?”
"Let me tell you a piece of good news. You have to stand firm and not faint from joy. My wife sent me a letter. What? What does it have to do with you? That's not right. Of course it's related to you. Otherwise, why would I call you? Are you full? Isn't your sister-in-law nice enough? You're still thinking about your brother's marriage, right! It's her classmate, a university student. She's very knowledgeable and not much worse than Confucius. She looks like a fairy. I'm envious. When my wife is compared to her, I'm so sad. Who knew that there was still a big fish behind? If I had met this person earlier, I wouldn't have had anything to do with Little Tian. You're lucky to have caught this big fish. Of course, I've never seen it before. I'm definitely not bragging. My wife said it. Can she brag? If she wanted to say who was good, they would definitely be good. Let me tell you, we can't miss this opportunity. Alright, I'll take it that you agree. I'll arrange a meeting in a few days. I'm telling you, you can't be with other women during this period, or I won't be able to explain myself…Alright, that's it, goodbye!”
Regarding the failure of the Battle of Jinmen, the chief of the field division unanimously agreed that other than the command error and the lack of scientific knowledge of the troops crossing the sea, there was another important reason. The northern soldiers were not used to fighting in the tropical jungle and could not use the tropical jungle to deal with the enemy. According to the intelligence department, the northeast and southwest mountainous areas of Golden Gate Island were covered with dense and verdant tropical jungles. After the Battle of Golden Gate, many scattered soldiers entered the jungle to prepare for guerrilla warfare. Due to the lack of survival ability in the wild, they were all swallowed up by the dangerous tropical jungle.
After the defeat of the Battle of Kinmen, everyone in the A Corps, from the commander to the soldiers, felt extremely humiliated. Ever since the troops crossed the Yangtze River, the 600,000 strong army of the Third Field Army had swept through the provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian. They were invincible. Who would have thought that a small island of only 120 square kilometers would cause the blood of 8,000 brave warriors to stain the battlefield? If he didn't take revenge, he would probably tarnish Sanye's reputation. At this moment, the entire army was filled with energy and began to train on the sea and in the jungle.
The General Staff Department invited two Soviet military advisors to serve as instructors for the jungle warfare training of the Jin forces. Both of them were colonels from the Alpha Special Forces of the Soviet Union. During World War II, they had conducted guerrilla warfare in the Mediterranean coast and the jungles of the Caucasus. They were jungle warfare experts. Noji believed that in the upcoming battle of Kinmen, considering that there was no party organization on the island and no mass base, the landing force would rely on their own survival ability to fight alone. Therefore, the unfamiliar terms of wilderness survival and special forces were placed in front of this army that had just gotten rid of millet and rifles.
The four main regiments of Li Yun Long's division were ordered to march into the high mountains and dense forests of Tianhu Mountain in southern Fujian. Under the harsh natural conditions, they began secret jungle simulation training. The two colonels of the special forces were indeed extraordinary, and their appearances were daunting. Colonel Vassily was two meters tall, with flaxen hair and two gray eyes protruding out of his deep eye sockets, flashing with a cold luster. The muscles on his typical Slavic face stretched out to both sides, making him look extremely ferocious. He was a Transcaucasian who had inherited too many of the fierce and fierce characteristics of the Tartars. Colonel Robhov was a Cossack from the Don steppe. Nine meters, with a Buzzini mustache. His facial muscles were stiff, and he was forever expressionless. He would not laugh. The colonel seemed to be more interested in cold weapons. This was due to the tradition of the men of the Don River who loved sabers and daggers. The first time he led the soldiers into the jungle, he casually showed off his hand. No one saw how he pulled out the dagger. His right hand moved gently and a white light shot out. The soldiers found that on a tree ten meters away, a snake as thick as a grass rope had its head firmly nailed by the dagger. One of the soldiers spent a lot of effort to pull out the head because the head was stuck two-thirds deep into the branch. Even Li Yunlong was stunned when he saw this. There was always someone better than him. This unique skill was a little like the internal martial arts of the Chinese Dynasty. The attack seemed gentle but was actually extremely powerful.
The Russian translator from the General Staff Department told Li Yunlong that Colonel Vasily was in charge of the field survival training of the troops. He liked to be called the Caucasian Wolf by others. To simplify it, he would just call him Old Wolf.
During the first lesson, Old Wolf told everyone through the translator,""To survive in the jungle, you must learn to eat. I think you Chinese should adapt quickly to this problem. Because you have a brilliant food culture. You eat everything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, and crawls on the ground. " Before I came to China, I did some research. I didn't find anything that Chinese people don't eat, unless they can't eat or will die if they eat. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that Chinese people are natural wilderness survival experts…" Old Wolf's words caused the soldiers to laugh.“
…The difference is that no matter what you eat, you have to cook it. Frying, boiling, frying, there are many different kinds, right? What we need to learn now is to eat it raw. Don't worry about the taste, because the taste is nothing but a trick to the tongue.”Then, Old Wolf gave him a recipe.
Li Yunlong was dumbfounded. Vipers, bats, ants, butterflies, scorpions, spiders, earthworms…These were all high protein. Barks, wild vegetables, wild fruits, and fungi were considered necessary supplements for vitamins. Old Wolf personally demonstrated. He tore and tore a bat apart. After eating it, he licked his blood-stained fingers with relish, as if he had an endless aftertaste.
The soldiers were dumbfounded, and no one dared to move. Old Wolf urged him a few times. Seeing that no one responded, he became angry."What's wrong? Not eating? Alright, you want to be a special forces soldier with such little courage? You still want to attack Golden Gate? Dream on." The old wolf roared. Li Yunlong had never been reprimanded by anyone before, so his anger was burning. He grabbed a green snake, chopped off its head and skinned it. He chewed it bit by bit like he was chewing sugar cane. He tried his best to suppress his disgust and said to the soldiers as if nothing had happened,"Try it, it tastes good. Damn it, attacking the golden gate for our master, you don't even want to live, and you still want to eat this? Eat! Let's compete."
When the soldiers saw that their commander had taken the lead to eat, they made up their minds and rushed forward. They grabbed these messy jungle creatures and tore and bit them, making their mouths bloody. Brother comrade, you ate a bat, good! I'll play along. Give me ten earthworms and two scorpions. Close your eyes and treat it as seafood.
The most essential part of the jungle survival course was to require modern people to learn the life skills of their ancestors, which was to restore modern people who had evolved over hundreds of millions of years to their original state. He had to learn how to navigate in the jungle, how to sleep, and how to deal with all kinds of wild beasts and poisonous insects.
The bad-tempered Colonel Wolf was ten times more ferocious than the King of Hell. He waved his whip and kicked the soldiers 'butts with his thick jungle boots. He drove them to climb trees without mercy. They walked on the trees and used the vine-like plants as a swing to swing from one tree to another. Only when you can climb trees and swing vines like a monkey and walk on flat ground will you pass.
After a month, this troop had become an army of monkeys. The soldiers 'military uniforms had become strands of cloth that fluttered on their bodies. They had become primitive people. Colonel Robhoff, the instructor of jungle tactics, also had the nickname of the Kuban Fox. He was a veteran with unique skills. The combination of the Don Cossack's fierceness and well-trained calmness made him a military hero in World War II. He was awarded the Gold Star Medal twice and the title of Hero of the Soviet Union. In the Soviet Special Forces, Old Fox was an idol. Li Yunlong's division was the main force of the Third Field Army. They had been in battle for a long time and had a large number of sharpshooters. They also had rich combat experience. The general led the troops. This troop was known as the Roaring Troop. From the division commander to the soldiers, they all had an arrogant temperament. They relied on their ability and military achievements.
Colonel Old Fox watched the soldiers 'shooting performance. They were prone, standing, and kneeling. He snorted disdainfully."As a performance, it's not bad. However, this can only be considered as the shooting skills of defending the trenches. This is child's play. There's nothing to boast about. If you want to fight in the jungle, you'll have to start your shooting training from scratch. Gentlemen, no matter how many battles you have participated in or how brilliant your achievements are, you are only a recruit here.”
Li Yunlong, Deputy Division Commander Yu Changjiang, and Chief of Staff Su Gongquan secretly made faces. Su Gongquan covered his chest as if he had a heart attack. Yu Changjiang laughed out loud as if no one else was around. Everyone looked indifferent and showed leniency to Colonel Old Fox. It was not easy for him to come all the way here, so why didn't he say something? The political commissar, Lin Hao, saw that these people were laughing and laughing, and he pretended to cough to remind them to be careful. Who was Old Fox? How could he not see the emotions of these division level officers?
But he didn't care. Before he came, a person in charge of the General Staff Combat Department had introduced the infantry division and the history of the division commander, Li Yunlong, to him in detail. From the perspective of a senior officer of the special forces, Old Fox could tell that this infantry division might be considered a good fighting force in Asia, but compared to the European army, their tactical level, technical equipment, and combat quality were still half a century behind. There was nothing to boast about. An army made up of peasants who lacked cultural knowledge was useless, no matter how brave and good at fighting.
Military affairs were an art and a science. Only people with rich professional knowledge could operate it. From this point of view, these officers were a little narrow-minded. As for this commander, Old Fox valued him very much. From his resume and battle records, this guy was very likely to be an outstanding strategist with the ability to command special forces. Just his combat experience alone was enough to make people envious. From 1927 until now, he had spent his life in war and killing. Those who could survive such a long life of war must have some extraordinary qualities. However, this guy was a little arrogant and not modest. The best lesson for such a person was to open his eyes.
Colonel Old Fox laughed hard, trying to ease the atmosphere, but his stiff facial muscles made his smile look terrifying."Comrade Commander, if you were to choose the platoon with the strongest combat strength in your unit, which platoon would you choose? Oh, then let's choose the division reconnaissance company.”Li Yunlong answered. "Alright, let's arrange a jungle combat exercise. Please send someone to measure an area of 1,000 square meters in the jungle and surround it with ropes.”
"The subject is like this. I was chased by a platoon of soldiers. Let's see how this forced killer sent his pursuers into hell one by one within the designated area. Since we lacked professional equipment to simulate jungle warfare, we could only use cold weapons. I did not have a gun, only a dagger that was accidentally broken. This dagger could no longer be used to attack the enemy. I could only use it to sharpen the branches and use sharp branches as weapons. And your warriors can use any cold weapons to attack me. The rule was to stop at the point, and those who were hit should be regarded as dead. " Please tell the soldiers not to struggle when they are called out to avoid accidental injuries…" The soldiers of the division's reconnaissance company were all veterans who had been specially selected. Most of them had some foundation in martial arts. The first platoon leader, Ding Yong, was a soldier who had joined the army in 1945. He was very skilled in various military techniques and had made many meritorious deeds.
"How was it?" Li Yunlong asked Ding Yong. Are you confident? This guy is not to be trifled with. It seems like he is planning to send you to hell. Try not to embarrass me.”Ding Yong pursed his lips and said,"Does this old Russian have three heads and six arms?" Why are you so arrogant?" Chief of Staff Su Gongquan said,"He's just using the terrain to attack one by one. Don't spread out too much. Give him a three-three system.”The deputy division commander, Yu Changjiang, whispered," This guy is tall and strong. He looks like he has some skills. Don't be too far away from each other. As long as one group holds him back, the rest of you will rush forward and tie him up. Bring him here."”Political Commissar Lin Hao was a little worried. He said to Li Yunlong,""Old Li, if First Platoon really gets it, don't go too far. It's related to the military of the two countries, so we have to leave them some face.”Li Yunlong wanted to laugh at him, so he snorted and said,""It's a drill, of course it has to be something real. We can't be formalistic. If the colonel can take care of an entire platoon by himself, it'll be a lesson for Ding Yong.”The confrontation exercise began. Li Yunlong and several officers in the division stood in the open space beside the jungle. According to the rules, those who were killed had to walk out of the forest themselves and were not allowed to continue participating. After Colonel Old Fox entered the forest, the platoon leader, Ding Yong, waved his hand, and the entire platoon of 41 people fanned out and rushed in. Li Yunlong lit a cigarette and took a few puffs. Then, he saw two soldiers walking out with their heads hanging.
"You two idiots, how did you get killed in less than three minutes?" he scolded with a smile.”Su Gongquan said,"It doesn't matter. It's just a war. How can people not die?" The good show is yet to come." Another four soldiers walked out. Li Yunlong stopped laughing. He threw away his cigarette and his expression became serious. "What happened?" Yu Changjiang asked the soldier.”"The woods are too dense, and that guy's as slippery as a loach," said one of the soldiers dejectedly. We can't catch him at all. If we're not careful, he'll pop out and hit your throat with a broken branch. When we surround him, he'll be gone again.”Another soldier said," Commander, it's as if he grew up in this forest. Why is the terrain so familiar? It was quite big, and when it jumped up the tree, it was as light as a feather. It grabbed the vine and swung it a few feet away. It was even more agile than a monkey.”As he spoke, another seven or eight warriors walked out of the forest. Li Yunlong finally became a little angry from embarrassment."What's going on? Ding Yong, that idiot. Damn it, he actually let someone clean up half the platoon?”
A squad leader who had withdrawn from the drill said," The three of us have already caught him, but it's too narrow inside. We can't use our fists and feet. We just have to lift our hands and lift our feet to hit the tree trunk." I don't know what kind of kung fu that old fox has practiced. It's a bit like the Internal Martial Arts of our country. His movements are very small, and he dares to attack from ten centimeters away from your body. His strength is extremely great. I was hit by his palm and my body flew up. I hit the tree trunk and bounced back. My throat was on his branch. His hand was very accurate. He ignored you with a nod and ran to the next one. He was really a f * cking old fox.”Su Gongquan was also a little flustered." Damn it, we've lost face this time. Let's see what Ding Yong can do. This kid has practiced spiritual martial arts before. No matter what, he has to fight with that old fox."”
As time passed, most of the warriors had been eliminated. Li Yunlong and the others had pinned their hopes on Ding Yong, who was still in the jungle. This was like a selection competition. Those who were not alert enough and whose kung fu was not as good as Ding Yong's had all dropped out. The rest were all experts. After another long hour, Li Yunlong's feet were littered with cigarette butts. He looked at his watch and relaxed. He said to Su Gongquan,""Including Ding Yong and the three of us in the forest, it has been almost two hours. This colonel's ability is probably about to be used up. It's not bad to be able to tie.”Before he could finish, the two warriors limped out of the jungle, supporting each other. The faces of the officers immediately fell, and no one spoke.
Not long after, the battle in the jungle finally ended. Colonel Old Fox and Ding Yong supported each other as they walked out. Both of them looked miserable. Their clothes were torn by tree branches, and their faces were covered in blood. Old Fox covered his crotch with his hand, revealing a painful expression. Ding Yong's nose kept bleeding, and two of his front teeth were knocked out. "What's going on?" Li Yunlong asked with a frown.”Ding Yong raised his head and stuffed a piece of paper into his nose as he replied,""It's nothing. We're tied. This old fox's fists and palms were quite powerful. It seemed that he was very good at close combat, especially when it came to using the terrain and trees. There were quite a few good fighters among my warriors. If it was a one-on-one fight on the open ground, he might not be able to gain an advantage. However, it would be impossible if he entered the forest. It was too narrow inside, and it would be difficult to make any big movements. It was also impossible to rely on the number of people to rush over and hold him down. The terrain was too limited. Next, I discovered that he also had a weakness. In mid-long distance combat, his leg skills were not very good. It was also possible that his training method did not pay attention to leg skills and used fists and palms as the main means of attack. After I found the flaw, I tried my best to avoid close combat with him. After wandering around the forest for more than two hours, once I fought with him, it would end in ten seconds. The process was very simple. When his sharp tree branch came at my throat, I leaned back and kicked the branch away with my right foot. He was an old hand and moved very quickly. When his right wrist was kicked, his left hook had already arrived. Look, I got hit on the nose and two front teeth fell out. I didn't let him off easily. I used a chain kick. My right foot went out and my left foot followed. I kicked his crotch and we fell at the same time. Actually, neither of us used our full strength. Otherwise, we wouldn't be like this. Commander, I've thought it through. We are indeed amateurs in jungle warfare. We should really learn from them. Let's not rush into other things. He single-handedly took care of my platoon with his bare hands. I'm convinced by this. If he had a gun in his hand, I'm afraid the problem would have been solved long ago.”
Colonel Robhov was rubbing his crotch and mumbling something to the translator in Russian. "What is the colonel talking about?" Li Yunlong asked the interpreter.”The interpreter replied," The colonel said that this platoon leader and the soldiers in this platoon have a bright future. They can become excellent special forces soldiers after special training. He also said that the platoon leader's kick was so powerful that he felt as if his genitals had been hit by a high-speed train..."
As the jungle combat training began, Li Yunlong and his partners realized that this combat method was indeed a science. There were too many things to learn. They used to be country bumpkins who looked at the sky from a well. The field of vision in the jungle was not wide, and the battle was mainly based on encounters. It relied on hearing and intuition. You had to use your ears to determine the difference between the sound of wind, rain, beasts, and humans, as well as the direction and distance of the sound. The judgment had to be accurate, but one couldn't be overly nervous and paranoid. You had to determine why the birds were flying around in the trees, why the crickets suddenly stopped chirping, or why a sudden gust of cold wind blew behind you. All of these could be the signal to enter the battle.
In jungle warfare, automatic firearms were the most taboo to shoot continuously because all kinds of trees would greatly reduce the lethality of your bullets. Short shots or single shots should be used, and grenades should not be used easily, because the various hanging vine-like plants might bounce the grenades back and blow them up. The probability of close combat in the jungle was very high. It was very important to learn the skills of close combat. One had to be good at using a bayonet, a head, or even a sharpened branch. An excellent special force soldier could kill the enemy even with a branch. You have to learn unarmed combat in the jungle. Due to the restrictions of the terrain and trees, your movements must be very small, but the explosive force must be very large. If your fist is only ten centimeters away from the opponent's ribs, then in such a short distance, you have to mobilize the energy of your entire body to concentrate on one point and break his ribs with explosive force. Don't stand under tall trees, because low-trajectory artillery shells often graze the treetops and explode in the air. You will be killed by the shrapnel pouring down in a fan-shaped manner. There will never be a safe blind spot. You had to learn how to tie up captives with rattan, imitate bird calls to communicate, learn how to coordinate tactics between small units, and how to use roundabout tactics…There were too many things to learn. After all, this unit was a unit with rich combat experience. From the commander to the soldiers, they mastered this new combat method very quickly, which surprised the instructors of the special forces.
In just three months, this troop made up of northerners had become a real jungle division. He passed the strict tests of the Soviet instructors. After the training, the troops returned to their original station, and the Soviet instructors were ready to return home after completing their mission. Li Yunlong, Political Commissar Lin Hao, Deputy Division Commander Yu Changjiang, Chief of Staff Su Gongquan, and a few others discussed and said," The two instructors have been working hard for the past few months. Before they leave, we have to express our gratitude." Yu Changjiang said," I have an old comrade-in-arms in the wilderness. In the past four or five years, when they came out of seclusion and entered the northeast, they had a lot of dealings with the Russians. It is said that the Russians only like two things: women and wine.”Lin Hao said," It's easy to get the wine. But there aren't any women. There are many single men in our division level. If there are women, we'll keep them for ourselves. How can they have a chance?"”Li Yunlong said," That's right. It's his business that big brother has this hobby. We can't learn that. It's better to treat him to a drink. Everyone, report your alcohol tolerance and think about it. Otherwise, before he does anything, we'll all slip under the table."”
"Five taels at most," Lin Hao said.”Su Gongquan said,"I'll quote one catty. No more."”Yu Changhai and Li Yunlong both reported 80 taels. The result of the statistics was that everyone unanimously agreed that with this amount of alcohol tolerance, they had to drink our division's brand. The Russians were born with a huge amount of alcohol. They drank like cold water. Wasn't this clearly a loss of face? At the table, everyone represented the image of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire. Their heads could be broken, and blood could flow. Even if they drank to death, they could not lose face. Li Yunlong's guard, Xiao Chen, said,""Don't worry, I'll be pouring wine for you.”Lin Hao rolled his eyes and looked at Little Chen.""Are you trying to steal the beam and replace the pillar? Using water to replace wine? This…" Li Yunlong slammed the table and said,""Good idea. All is fair in war. You have to talk about tactics. A man of courage is not a good soldier.”
Neither of the two Soviet officers was good at talking. Their profession had taught them to only do practical things and not talk. As soon as they heard that someone had invited them to drink, they became excited. As soon as they sat at the table, they rubbed their huge palms impatiently and stared at the bottle of wine. They did not even say a word of courtesy. Li Yunlong told the two colonels through the translator,""We have been together for a few months and can be considered friends. Today's banquet is to send our friends off. Everyone has to get drunk. Now, in order to show our respect to our guests, I and the other persons-in-charge will each drink a bottle of wine to show our sincerity.”Lin Hao, Su Gongquan, and Yu Changjiang all stood up heroically and grabbed the bottle. They bit open the cap with their teeth, raised their necks, and gulped it down. Then, they all faced down to show that they were clean. Li Yunlong frowned secretly after drinking it. Damn, drinking a bottle of cold water doesn't feel so good either. His stomach is so full.
The two Soviet officers saw that the Chinese officers were so forthright and could not help but become addicted to alcohol. They told the interpreter that drinking should be fair. Since the Chinese officers were so forthright, they had to accompany them with a bottle. Therefore, each of them gulped down a bottle of genuine strong white wine. Colonel Wolf wiped his mouth with his hand and said," Division Commander Li, you and your men are heroes. You are heroes in war and drinking. We like you.”Li Yunlong raised his head and drank half a bottle of cold water, saying,""Please help yourself, colonels. You don't have to drink with me. My hometown is in the mountains, and it's very short of water. Water is more expensive than wine, so we don't have the habit of drinking water. When we're thirsty, we drink.”Su Gongquan and the others chimed in,"That's right, it's like this. Old Li is not allergic to alcohol. We've seen him drink more than ten catties of alcohol at one time.”Amidst everyone's flattery, Li Yunlong raised his neck and drank half a bottle, his expression unchanged. Xiao Chen said," Please help yourself. If you can't drink, then drink less. If there's no more wine left, our teacher will take care of it."”
Colonel Old Fox felt that his pride had been challenged. He grabbed the bottle and said,"No, no, this isn't fair. The colonel should drink as much as the commander.”" Comrade Robhov," Li Yunlong said," my troops have passed your assessment. Can they be called special forces division?" There's one more thing I don't understand. Your country has millions of troops, so why is there only a small special force? Why weren't there any special forces division or special forces army?”Colonel Old Fox shook his head."
"Li, your concept is wrong. Your troops only passed the jungle combat training and did not undergo all the special forces training. At most, they can only be called jungle combat division. Moreover, there is no special forces division in the world, even if it is a big country with millions of soldiers. The special forces unit was a brand new combat method developed during World War II. Its equipment and training methods should reflect the latest scientific and technological achievements and thinking methods of mankind. An outstanding special force soldier should be a perfect combination of physical strength, skills, and intelligence. The members of the special forces unit had a very high elimination rate. They were the essence of the army and the pride of the army. Therefore, it was impossible for there to be many of them. Your troops had passed the jungle combat training, but this was only training for specific combat areas. It was just like how one could become a mountain combatant through mountain combat training and a desert combatant through desert combat training.”Li Yunlong did not think much of it. Comrade Colonel, can you show us what a real special forces soldier is like?”Old Fox and Old Wolf exchanged glances, put down their bottles, and stood up. Robhov walked to the door and looked around, then pointed to a tall house not far away and asked,"Please estimate how high that room is.”
It was a typical Minnan style house with white walls, gray tiles, and tall eaves. It was obviously the house of a rich man. This kind of house was very tall and could not be compared to the houses in the northern countryside. Li Yunlong estimated the distance between the ground and the eaves and answered,"It's about four meters." "The subject is like this," said Robhoff."It's a regimental headquarters of the enemy. There is an open space of 50 meters between my hiding place and the house. The enemy's mobile sentry will appear in front of the house every two minutes. Now Colonel Vassily and I have two minutes to dash across the open space, climb up to the roof, jump down and run back. The subject requirement was that no sound was allowed when jumping from a high place to the ground while running at high speed. All movements had to be completed within two minutes.”
Li Yunlong estimated the height and weight of the two men. Vasily was two meters tall and weighed about 110 kilograms. Colonel Robhov was 1.5 meters tall. They were all wearing half-high-waisted, thick-soled jungle boots. These boots were very heavy, and the soles were designed to be very hard and thick to prevent stabs. He thought that with the size of these two officers and the hard soles on their feet, it was pure nonsense for them to complete these movements in two minutes without making a sound. The chivalrous men described in the old martial arts novels of the Chinese Dynasty still wore a pair of thin soles. In the " Three Heroes and Five Righteous ", the Southern Hero Zhan Xiongfei was given the nickname of the Imperial Cat by the emperor because he could fly on roofs and walk on walls. If he were to wear the Jungle Boots, he probably wouldn't be able to become a royal cat. Li Yunlong wanted to see the methods of these two special forces soldiers.
The two officers were ready to look at Li Yunlong with their eyes. He looked at his watch and waved his hand. Two figures dashed out and ran quickly across the open ground. As expected, there was no sound at all. The people present widened their eyes as they watched them run. They found that their movements were nothing special. It was not the kind of tiptoeing movements but the movements of a 100-meter sprint on the track and field. It was unbelievable. Everyone present widened their eyes in surprise. When the two-meter-tall Old Wolf ran to the foot of the wall, he bent down slightly. Old Fox jumped up and used one foot to tap on his back. He jumped up and grabbed the cornice with his hand to do a pull-up. He flipped onto the roof lightly. Almost at the same time, he casually pulled out the belt around his waist and swung it. Old Wolf leaped up and grabbed the belt to hook onto the cornice. The two of them paused for a moment before jumping down at the same time. This series of actions was smooth and smooth, just like a scene from a silent movie. The four-meter-high freefall was like stepping into a pile of cotton. There was no sound at all.
When the two Soviet officers ran across the open field and returned to Li Yunlong, it was exactly two minutes. Everyone applauded enthusiastically. Only Li Yunlong and Yu Changjiang, who used to be a scout, could see through it. They found that the first part of the two colonels 'feet that touched the ground was only a small part of the forefoot, and the angle of landing was extremely tricky and accurate. The hard soles of the boots did not hit the ground horizontally, but gently rubbed the ground at an inclined angle. Coupled with the abnormal strength and elasticity of the forefoot and toes, this effect was achieved. Li Yunlong and Yu Changjiang looked at each other. They both knew that even if they understood the principle, it would be useless if they did not have precise angle calculations and hard practice to achieve such an effect.
Li Yunlong looked calm on the surface. He shook hands with the two colonels to congratulate them, but he was amazed in his heart. Damn it, there's always someone better. An army without culture and science will be taken care of sooner or later. It seems that I have to learn well, or I won't be able to stay in the army. He secretly called Xiao Chen and said,"Why are you using cold water to fool me?" Go! Change it to wine for me, everyone drink, no one is allowed to pretend to be a bear. Xiao Chen expressed his anger at him for going back on his word."Teacher? No matter what you say, it makes sense.”Since Li Yunlong had really taken action, Lin Hao, Yu Changjiang, and Su Gongquan naturally couldn't drink any more cold water. They all drank heartily.
Even though they had used a trick in the first half, they still couldn't hold on when they really drank in the second half. The few of them were drunk into a pile of mud. Yu Changjiang was the most drunk. He put a bullet in the magazine of his revolver and spun it around randomly. He wanted to bet with Old Wolf that his luck had always been good and that his head had never been hit by bullets. If he didn't believe it, he would try. Old Wolf was also drunk and muddle-headed. Yu Changjiang pointed his revolver to his head and became excited. He said that we Russians also like to bet like this. This is called Russian roulette. It's f * cking exciting. Real men love to play this game. Move aside and let me go first. The two of them pushed each other and grabbed the revolver. If Xiao Chen had not discovered it in time and disarmed them without any explanation, they would have died that night. Li Yunlong and Colonel Robhov were both drunk, but they were not muddle-headed.
The two of them put their arms around each other's shoulders and called each other brothers. They exchanged cups and toasts, and they were extremely affectionate. Colonel Old Fox hugged Li Yunlong and said,"" My dear Li, you are an excellent commander. You won't stay in the position of a division commander for too long. Please remember my advice. No matter how large the army you command in the future, you must establish your own special forces. Only special forces are the elites of the army..." Old Fox fell asleep on the table after saying that. Li Yunlong said in a daze," Don't worry, comrade…My…special forces…will land on…Jinmen Island…sooner or later…"”
[Note: This chapter is a bit far-fetched. It doesn't exist in reality, and it doesn't make sense logically.] It was obviously unrealistic to apply the modern methods of training special forces to the training of the division level troops of the field army in the 1950s. As a lesson learned from the Battle of Kinmen, apart from the subjective reasons for underestimating the enemy, the most important objective reasons at that time were the lack of ships and the lack of understanding of the sea situation and the characteristics of landing operations. After the war, the preparation work of the 10th Corps to attack Kinmen was based on the characteristics of island operations. The army mainly trained in boarding and disembarking, navigation discipline, sea combat, landing, anti-tank, island attack, and so on. There was no large-scale jungle combat training. This was because the entire Battle of Jinmen was mainly a battle between islands, mountains, and villages. The jungles on Jinmen Island were limited, and it was not the main area defended by the Kuomintangs. It was impossible for it to become the main combat area, so jungle warfare could not become a form of training for large troops. Even the 9th regiment that attacked Taiwan and the 40th and 43rd corps that attacked Hainan Island did not undergo such training. The 9th Regiment was only training in the Tianmu Mountains for the subtropics, while the rest of the troops were mainly training for landing. At that time, the focus of the People's Liberation Army was on how to collect enough ships and how to send enough troops to the island safely. They were not particularly worried about the subsequent battles. The first large-scale jungle warfare training of the People's Liberation Army was in the 1960s. At that time, it was negotiated by the Chinese and Burmese governments. The Yunnan Military Region of the People's Liberation Army entered Myanmar to attack the remaining armed forces of the Kuomintangs and ensure the border survey work between China and Myanmar. Due to the lack of experience in jungle warfare, they did not kill many enemies. After the war, Lieutenant General Chen Kang organized the division level jungle combat training, explored a set of jungle combat experience, including field survival, jungle combat, logistics support, and other content. He also filmed a military educational film of more than three hours," Jungle Battle." However, due to the Cultural Revolution, this achievement was shelved for more than ten years. Later, in 1979, before the war against Vietnam, it was shown to the army. The army had a strong reaction, especially after the war. The army said that if they had seen the film earlier and trained according to it, there would not have been so many deaths.
