A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television

After the battle, the two of them were very close.

I don't know if Lu Cheng's comfort worked, or if Shi Jin had let it go, and he stopped worrying about this problem.

Of course, Shi Jin would often go over to care about Xu Sanduo.

The dormitory buildings of the Steel 7th Company and the Red 3rd Company were separated by a square, and it was very convenient for them to travel between the two sides. Xu Sanduo often came here to visit Chengcai or Shi Jin, and occasionally came to Lu Cheng to ask one or two questions that sounded a bit stupid.

But Lu Cheng didn't dislike it, and he always patiently answered Xu Sanduo's questions in the simplest language.

The training of the Steel 7th Company was indeed very tiring and hard, but there was also joy.

Company Commander Gao Cheng was never a very serious person, and he liked to mingle with his soldiers.

Just like when doing a 500-meter obstacle race, Gao Cheng would personally use a stopwatch to time it. After Wu Liuyi finished running, he would jump directly to the company commander, put his arm around the company commander's shoulders, take out a cigarette from the company commander's pocket, smoke one, and then put it back.

Company commander Gao would not get angry, at most he would kick Wu Liuyi in the ass. And Wu Liuyi could always dodge flexibly and run to the side to light the fire.

After training, company commander Gao would stand in front of the entire platoon of soldiers and proudly tell everyone about the glorious history of the 7th Steel Company.

"…What about long-term victory and great merit? Those are reserved for other companies. Our Steel 7th Company has never been interested in these titles. For example, the Great Merit Company won a collective second-class merit once, and they boasted about it. Shi Jin, tell us how many times our Steel 7th Company has won collective first-class merit?"

"Report to the company commander, three times."

"Did you hear that? It's three times, which means that in the three battles, more than 1/3 of our soldiers were killed, and the number of enemies killed was doubled or even 20 times. It means that there were three times when our company played the most critical role in the battle...

The most important thing is that until today, our company has not fallen, and it will continue. We will not abandon or give up, so we are called Steel 7th Company!"

"Steel 7th Company!"

Gao Cheng is indeed very good at boosting morale. Whenever he stands in front of the crowd to give a speech, he can always mobilize the emotions of all officers and soldiers between laughter, anger and scolding, and make everyone excited with passionate slogans.

"In addition, I have another announcement for everyone. The whole division will soon have a military exercise. You should pay attention to it during your recent training."

"Yes!"

Every November, the whole army will have a real-combat exercise.

Before the military exercise, the entire T Division will always have an internal exercise in advance to find out some of the training conditions of the whole division and better prepare for the military exercise.

It can also be said that this military exercise is a mock exam before the final exam.

Before the exercise, the entire 702 regiment began to prepare in advance, and 16 companies were assigned different tasks.

The task of the 7th Steel Company is to arrive at the designated location in advance, hide, avoid enemy detection, and launch a counterattack at a critical moment.

If it is just infantry, it is relatively easy to hide. Armored reconnaissance soldiers also need to add armored vehicles to hide together, so they need to be fully prepared.

The exercise was coming soon. The 7th Steel Company also followed the instructions of the superiors and arrived at the designated location in advance. They chose a bush, dug a slope, hid the armored vehicles, covered it with a protective net, picked some wild grass from the bushes nearby, picked some branches, and tried to make the camouflage exactly the same as the surrounding environment.

For camouflage, veterans are naturally more experienced.

Lu Cheng and several new recruits did not get involved, but stood not far away and studied quietly.

Shi Jin was also busy while explaining the essentials of camouflage to everyone: "Don't think that camouflage seems simple, but there is a lot of knowledge in it. Just like digging wild grass, you can't dig hard in one place to avoid leaving artificial traces. And on those branches, try to pick some close to the roots..."

Everyone listened carefully and remembered.

In the original drama, everyone managed to disguise themselves and hid in time, but because Xu Sanduo had two hot eggs in his arms that had just been taken out of the thermos, his position was exposed, causing the 7th Steel Company to withdraw early before the exercise began.

Although they were just two hot eggs, the temperature inside the two hot eggs was very high when they were just taken out of the thermos, which was clearly displayed on the helicopter's thermal imager, and they were directly seen from a distance.

Found out.

If it was on a real battlefield, Xu Sanduo might have killed all the soldiers in the company.

Of course, there was no Xu Sanduo this time, and no hot eggs. The camouflage and concealment of the 7th Steel Company were done well. They successfully avoided the high-altitude reconnaissance of the helicopter and continued to lurk in the same place, waiting for the order from their superiors.

After the helicopter flew away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and whispered.

"This helicopter came too unfortunate. The dining car of the kitchen team just arrived, and we haven't eaten two bites of food yet."

"What's the use of saying this? At least we have eaten two bites, but the squad leader and the deputy squad leader haven't eaten a single bite."

"Okay, okay, bear it for a while."

At this moment, someone's stomach growled, and everyone looked at each other, and finally looked at the squad leader Shi Jin.

Shi Jin grinned and comforted them: "It's okay, just bear with it. After the exercise, we'll have a good meal when we go back."

Lu Cheng reached into his pocket, took out a few pieces of chocolate from the storage space, and handed them to the squad leader: "Fill your stomach first."

"Old Lu, when did you hide the chocolate? Give me one too?"

"Are you still hungry? Just now I saw you finish a big bun in three bites and eat an egg."

"That's not good."

Shi Jin interrupted a few people: "Okay, come on, everyone has a piece, everyone has a share."

"Squad leader, deputy squad leader, you should eat first."

"Yes, we're not hungry."

Finally, the squad leader and deputy squad leader ate two pieces of chocolate each, and the rest were broken up by everyone.

The reason why comradeship is so unforgettable is because of these experiences of sharing weal and woe, the experience of a group of people sharing a steamed bun and drinking a bottle of water.

As night fell, the truck of the kitchen team arrived at the ambush site on time and brought everyone hot buns, boiled eggs, etc.

Everyone hurriedly filled their stomachs, and the kitchen team quickly took all the things to move.

The next morning, the soldiers of the 7th Steel Company received orders from their superiors to move to a certain high ground, and an exercise began...

In this exercise, Lu Cheng served as a vehicle-mounted machine gunner, operating the heavy machine gun on the roof, and enjoyed a metal storm.

Now, in the various training subjects of the 7th Steel Company, Lu Cheng has not yet fully mastered the driving and command of the infantry fighting vehicle.

Except for drivers who have been professionally trained and trained, ordinary soldiers are absolutely not allowed to enter the cab of the armored vehicle.

On the battlefield, once the driver of the armored vehicle has a problem, if there are no other professionally trained drivers on the vehicle, the other soldiers on the vehicle can only abandon the vehicle and become infantry.

This is mainly because the vision of the armored vehicle driver is very narrow. Even if the driver who has not received professional training can drive the armored vehicle, he may hurt his own people before hitting the opponent.

The coordinated combat between people and infantry fighting vehicles is definitely not as simple as following behind the vehicle.

In this exercise, because the soldiers of the entire third squad have made great progress and cooperated with each other more tacitly, the entire third squad performed very well and achieved excellent results in the battle.

In this kind of group combat, the smallest unit is the squad. The most important thing for an individual is to cooperate with the entire squad to complete the combat mission, rather than to show personal heroism.

But Shi Jin did show good command ability and deserved to be an experienced armored squad leader.

For this reason, the third squad of the first platoon was also commended by the superiors, and the regiment commander Wang Qingrui also made a special praise for Shi Jin.

After the end of this exercise, Lu Cheng devoted himself to more arduous training, and often pulled Wu Liuyi and Shi Jin to train rapid shooting and individual combat capabilities in various environments.

Soon, a full-army exercise will be launched. The legendary Old A will act as the blue army and teach the 702nd Regiment a painful lesson.

Although Lu Cheng knew this, he did not think about changing anything.

The future war is an informationized war, a multi-service coordinated operation, and a war art of perfect coordination between the sea, land and air.

Although the current 702nd Regiment is also equipped with some informationized equipment, the overall combat thinking still remains in the mechanized era.

This major military change is the general trend and the need of the times.

Although the 7th Steel Company is strong, it also needs to break the tradition and regroup to radiate new vitality...
