my battlefield my company

Chapter 13 Morale Rout
"Weapons and equipment are the most important."

"The number of troops is also important."

"Occupy a favorable geographical location."

"Can have good logistics."

"..."

The soldiers said one after another.

Yan Zhi nodded: "These are the main factors on the battlefield, but they are not the most important."

Seeing Wu Zhonghua sitting aside thinking about something, Yan Zhi said, "Wu Zhonghua, tell me what is the most important thing on the battlefield."

"Reporting sir, I think what the brothers said makes sense, but what is more important is what kind of morale a unit has."

"Well said! Morale is the most important thing. Our weapons are at a disadvantage compared to the Japanese, but we have a huge advantage in numbers. Moreover, this is our home field, our homeland, and we know the land under our feet that raised us Every plant and every tree in the land, but it has been retreating again and again, and the main reason is because the morale of our army has collapsed."

"Morale collapsed?"

Most of the soldiers were old men who hadn't gone to school. Even if some had studied for a few days, they still didn't know a lot of Chinese characters, and they didn't know what a morale collapse was.

It's like people in the 70s didn't know what a cell phone was.

The soldiers had gradually become familiar with Yan Zhi, knowing that he was only a monster when he was training them, but he was very considerate of the soldiers in life, without any airs of authority. The soldiers had never seen such an officer.

"Yes, morale collapsed! From the very beginning, the morale of our Chinese army suffered a huge blow, so we were completely at a disadvantage in terms of momentum, and we have been crushed by little devils."

"In the September [-]th Incident, the Northeast Army pursued a non-resistance policy and handed over our great rivers and mountains to the Japanese, allowing Japan to easily occupy the entire Northeast. Since then, the morale of our Chinese soldiers has never been raised again."

"The Japanese are not invincible like three-headed and six-armed, but they almost got the entire three eastern provinces at their fingertips. When some of our soldiers heard that the Japanese devils were coming, they became terrified and fearful before fighting. The Northeast Army’s non-resistance policy not only lost our land in the Northeast, but also the morale and hearts of the entire Chinese nation.”

"So, our bloody soldiers must revive our Chinese army, inspire our people, and gradually reverse the unfavorable battle situation for me, because this is our land, and we are the masters of this land. Little devils are not invincible , They have been holding the line for too long, and when our soldiers and civilians regain their confidence, it will be the time when the little devils get out of our Greater China."

"Here," Yan Zhi pointed at the land under his feet, domineering, "This is our home field, and we have the final say on everything."

Yan Zhi's words were like thunder, waking up the dreamer. The soldiers had never heard such a thorough and incisive analysis.In this turbulent era, their knowledge, vision, and thinking have limited their ability to think independently, and they can only follow what others say, and blindly follow the crowd. Some people say that devils are powerful, terrifying, and invincible, so they will agree with Xiao in their hearts. Devils are invincible.

"I think brothers all know that if we lose the war, we will become slaves of the Japanese. You also know what happened to the people in the city after the fall of Nanjing." When the soldiers were stunned, Yan Zhi changed the subject, "Why were the three hundred warriors of Sparta able to successfully stop tens of thousands of enemies for two days? That's because they knew that behind them, there was someone they loved the most. If they couldn't stop the [-] enemies, then their The country, their families, will be the meat on the chopping board and can only be slaughtered."

"So, from the very beginning, the three hundred warriors of Sparta held the firm confidence that they would be able to stop 300 enemies. The 300 of them were united in one mind, and the strength of the [-] people was twisted into one rope. They believed that as long as the brothers behind them did not die in battle, , their backs are safe, and they can fully resist the enemy in front of them without any worries."

Yan Zhi said, pointing to the earthen wall: "This is a small game we are going to do, the name of this game is 'Trust Back Drop', it is equivalent to completely putting your weakest back on the battlefield. , feel free to leave it to the brothers to defend.”

Trust back fall is a team project invented by modern people in the expansion. The purpose is to increase the trust among colleagues and win the favor of modern people.

"Trust back?"

The soldiers were confused, why did they fall?
"This game works like this. Stand alone on the wall," Yan Zhi said as a demonstration. He straightened his hands and arms, crossed his fingers in the opposite direction on the back of his hands, hooked them backwards, and stuck them to his chest. Keep your elbows close to your abdomen. "This posture can prevent your elbows from injuring others. Then, the whole person falls straight back in the air, and safely hands himself over to the person standing below to catch him."

The soldiers understood, and then looked at the sharp stones on the ground that could cut bones, each of them murmured in their hearts, thinking, what if the people below can't hold them?What if the people below are irresponsible?What if among these people, there is someone who he has offended unintentionally, and then he deliberately misses it?
Yan Zhi knew what the soldiers were thinking.He walked up to the dirt wall, turned around, put his hands behind his chest, folded his elbows, and said: "I will set an example for my brothers, and at the same time, I will give my life to you."

Yan Zhi's sentence "I give my life to you" was like a bomb exploded in the hearts of the people, boiling the hearts of the soldiers instantly.Major Yan's trust in them was enough for them to follow him through mountains of swords and seas of fire.

"One day, when we are facing the enemy, I will give my weakest back to my brothers to defend like I am now. Likewise, as long as I have a breath, I will not let my brothers empty back."

After Yan Zhi finished speaking, he fell straight down, without hesitation, and fell down decisively.

The soldiers swarmed up and stretched out their hands, like an extremely thick warm bed, firmly catching Yan Zhi.

"I believe in the brothers, just as I believe that our Kuomintang and the Communist Party will work together to drive the devils out of China in three years."

Yan Zhi relaxed all over, lying on the human wall cast by the soldiers, opened his eyes, looked at the blue sky, and said affectionately.

Wu Zhonghua strode up the earthen wall: "Brothers, Wu Zhonghua's life is in your hands." Then he imitated Yan Zhi's posture and fell straight down.

The soldiers concentrated on building a solid human wall.

"Band of Brothers!"

Wu Zhonghua shouted with tears in his eyes.Such Chinese soldiers are enough to defend the country and make the enemy terrified.

"Band of Brothers!"

"Band of Brothers!"

The soldiers shouted in unison, one by one walked up the earth wall
Nalan Huiyue, who stood watching from the side, wet his eyes again.

"The Eastern Sleeping Lion has finally woken up." Yan Zhi murmured, "It's great to travel through time!"

When eating at noon, Nalan Huiyue was like everyone else, holding a bowl and sitting on the ground around Yan Zhi.

"Happy Wednesday!"

"Sir!"

"Bring Miss San a bench!"

"Yes, sir!"

In the end, Nalan Huiyue squatted on the ground where everyone was sitting on the bench.

Suddenly, Wang Sanwa, who had been seldom speaking, held a bowl and asked: "Sir, after three years, we can really drive the little devil out of our China, end this cruel war from now on, guard our family, and live a good life." day?"

Yan Zhi almost choked, but he pretended to be choked, and said after a while: "In three years, we will drive the little devils out of China. In the future, our great China will create a prosperous age, an unprecedented prosperous age !" He couldn't tell Wang Sanwa that after the little devils were driven away, there would be a life-and-death war in China.
