my battlefield my company

Chapter 15
Yan Zhi pointed to the various weapons arranged on the ground, and asked the soldiers, which weapon is more powerful in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy?What weapon do you like to use?
Most of the soldiers said that they like to use big swords, which are easy to use and can be used to chop vigorously.

Some soldiers said that the red-tasseled gun is easy to use, and the gun has a long body, which has an advantage.

Some soldiers said that the bayonet is easy to use, and they can stab forward when fighting with the bayonet.

Some people say that using a sword is very powerful. The sword can be stabbed, or it can be lifted up as a knife.

As for the Nepalese scimitar used by the officer, the soldiers had never seen it before, let alone used it.

Yan Zhidao: "Our team doesn't use broadswords, swords, or red-tasseled spears. We only use bayonets, machetes, and daggers."

It’s fine to use a bayonet instead of a red-tasseled spear. After all, the red-tasseled spear is easy to break, but the soldiers are puzzled, why the officer should abandon the powerful, powerful, domineering, and deterrent big sword and use short machetes and daggers instead?Although the soldiers had seen Yan Zhi easily kill a few little devils with a Nepalese scimitar, they didn't think they had the ability.

"Everyone sit down and chat slowly. Whoever smokes can take it himself." Yan Zhi said, putting the cigarette and lighter on the stool, and he also sat cross-legged with the soldiers, "Since we all know that the little devil is good at bayonets, then Can any brother tell me why the little devil is so powerful?"

"..."

"..."

The soldiers expressed their views one after another.

"The little devil is not human, inhuman, cruel, and he will die when fighting with a bayonet." Waiting for others to talk about it, Wu Zhonghua pulled out his dry pipe from his waist and said.

He skillfully rolled strong tobacco, and after lighting it, he choked so much that he avoided him far away.

Seeing the officer coughing and avoiding himself with disgust on his face, Wu Zhonghua squinted his eyes and smiled: "I think the officer is quite addicted to cigarettes, why don't you give me a try."

Yan Zhi quickly waved his hands, and moved further away from Wu Zhonghua, which drew good-natured laughter from the soldiers.

Before crossing, Yan Zhi checked the information. In the beginning, all the little devils had undergone standard military training for at least half a year.

After the outbreak of World War II, in order to improve their combat power, the little devils would practice the soldiers' bayonet skills so that they would not feel dizzy and frightened when they went to the battlefield. After all, training and the battlefield with real swords and guns are not the same thing.

The little devil will use science to tell the soldiers where the bayonet can kill the opponent with a single blow, which part is easy to lock the bayonet, and try to avoid it when fighting the bayonet. Far.

But in the early days of World War II, the Chinese military condemned the little devil internationally, but avoided talking about it domestically. The reason was that the Chinese soldiers who were already afraid of Japanese soldiers would become more afraid and fearful of war if they knew about it.

Killers are not born. Yan Zhi remembered that when he killed the first villain, his heartbeat doubled, his lips were dry and his tongue was bitter, and his hands were shaking.

To defeat the little devil, the Chinese soldiers must be stronger than the enemy. The wolves cannot be influenced by mercy. To deal with the wolves, they must use shotguns.

From a human point of view, no one would be so stupid as to use compassion to influence an enemy instead of using a knife.

But little devils are really hard to catch, at least compared to Chinese soldiers.

As for the soldiers saying that the devils would be terrified when they heard about the Broadsword Team, Yan Zhi knew that this was propaganda made by the military in desperation.

At the end of the 90s, an authoritative organization specifically studied which was more powerful and effective, the Chinese broadsword or the Japanese bayonet, during hand-to-hand combat during World War II.

After scientific experiments, the sword was finally defeated.

Because the big knife is powerful only when it is raised and cut down, and the trajectory must be long to give full play to its advantages. In this way, the arc of swinging the knife must be very large. It had already stabbed him in the stomach.

And the bayonet can stab forward continuously and make killing moves again and again, which is something that the big knife doesn't have.

The biggest reason why the military said that the big knife is better than the bayonet is that the number of bayonets is really far from enough, and the bayonet must be cast by a machine, unlike a big knife that can be made by a blacksmith.

In order to improve morale, the military can only publicize how the Broadsword Team makes the little devils scared, which is also a helpless move.

In this era, soldiers were relatively ignorant. They didn't know that in hand-to-hand combat, often a little devil with a bayonet could defeat four or five Chinese soldiers with big knives.

Yan Zhi said: "Brothers, little devils don't have three heads and six arms, as long as you use the right method, you can defeat them. As long as you practice strictly according to my requirements, I guarantee that you can crush little devils on the battlefield in the future, and everyone can kill them." The enemy made meritorious service."

Yan Zhi knew that words alone were not enough to convince the soldiers that the sword was at an absolute disadvantage against the bayonet.He held a wooden spear, and let Wu Zhonghua fight with him with a wooden knife in slow motion, so that the soldiers could clearly see that at the same time, when Wu Zhonghua swung the wooden sword and had not had time to chop it down, his wooden bayonet It has reached Wu Zhonghua's abdomen.vice versa.

After Yan Zhi's detailed explanation and demonstration, the soldiers suddenly realized.

The wooden target that Yan Zhi specially made for bayonet practice is very strange. A wooden stick with the thickness of a calf is suspended by a rope in front of the wooden target. When soldiers are training, they must use the wooden gun to push the wooden stick away before they can stab the wooden target. This is equivalent to practicing blocking and stabbing at the same time, getting twice the result with half the effort.

Yan Zhi knew that he had talked too much, and the soldiers couldn't digest it for a while.He asked the soldiers to practice running, parrying, stabbing, and spinning their bodies every day.As for why the body is rotated, it will be kept secret for the time being.

A few days later, Zhou Youcai received a call from Nie Yuanfeng from the military headquarters early in the morning.

Nie Yuanfeng reminded Yan Zhi, don't forget that noon the day after tomorrow is the time for the two of them to compete.

Yan Zhi stood in front of the table, holding a magnifying glass to study the battle map, and told Zhou Youcai without raising his head, "No. I don't have time to be bored with him."

Unexpectedly, Yan Zhi would pretend to be cowardly before the battle. Zhou Youcai was stunned for a while, and then whispered: "Sir, if you don't go, you will lose face. Everyone in the military region knows the agreement between you and Major Nie Yuanfeng."

Yan Zhi: "I don't care what other people say or say, but tomorrow we are going to practice knives with the devils, so that the little devils know that we are stronger than them."
