Chapter 30 Flying Eagle Special Forces Water Training
Baiyangdian is the largest lake on the Huaxia Haihe Plain and is located in the central part of North China Province. It was formerly known as Aries Dian, also known as Xidian. It is formed on the fan edge depression at the intersection of the Yongding River and the Hutuo River alluvial fans in front of the Taihang Mountains. There are more than 100 large and small lakes, including Baiyangdian, Shaochedian, Yangjiaodian, Chiyudian, Houtangdian, etc., which are relatively large, and are collectively called Baiyangdian. The area is 336 square kilometers. From the north, west and south, the waterfall, Tanghe, Caohe, Zhulonghe and other rivers are accepted from the three sides of the north, west and south.
It was on this lake that, under the leadership of the People's Party, a group of guerrillas were formed to make the Japanese dizzy. The most famous of them was a guerrilla team called Yanling Team. Because of its superb water quality and familiarity with the local terrain, the Japanese suffered losses and had to fall in this lake with hatred again and again to become feed for fish and shrimps.
Taking the regional information provided by Wang Chao, Deng Chenggong did not take action immediately, but asked Wang Chao to investigate the landlord Lao Cai, who was extremely angry in this area. Because whether he could open up the current deadlock in recruiting depends on whether Deng Chenggong has the ability to solve the corrupt officials existing in this area.
For the people of this era, if you say a thousand words to serve the people, it is better to avenge them once. Only when you see practical actions can people gradually believe that the militia column is a militia armed force established to protect the people.
Thinking of his special forces team, the mountain jungle combat capability can meet Deng Chenggong's requirements, but underwater combat is still slightly insufficient. In order to shock the local opposition forces, Deng Chenggong felt it was necessary to let them clearly understand one truth, that is, opposing the militia column is a kind of death-seeking behavior. Therefore, the special forces team was temporarily drawn for underwater training, which can strengthen their special combat skills, and the other hand, they took action to carry out liquidation tasks, which is undoubtedly more confident and persuasive.
The accompanying radio operators were asked to keep a team of ten special forces left behind for Wu Zhongyuan, which was in the second round of special selection training in Feiying Village, except for the remaining squad of ten special forces left behind at the headquarters, all the other formal reserve members must arrive at the Xinxian Militia Regiment station within three days. This was also an assessment. Wu Zhongyuan, who received the order, quickly reported to Xu Mingyuan and others, and left a special forces team of ten people to stay behind at the headquarters, and led a team of hundreds of people to cross mountains and ridges to Xinxian.
Fortunately, these special forces did not disappoint Deng Chenggong. They arrived at the militia station half a day earlier than the prescribed time. Looking at the ten soldiers in the lead wearing flying eagle signs, the officers who knew the details of the troops couldn't help but widen their eyes. Some militias who had just joined the militia regiment could not help but gasp when they saw this group of ferocious special forces. Because these soldiers didn't need you to lean on, they could feel a vicious aura from the other party from a distance. Soldiers who knew a little about what these vicious aura meant couldn't help but take a few steps back when they saw these soldiers.
Wu Zhongyuan, who had already sorted out the team, saw Deng Chenggong coming up and saluted very formally: "Comrade Commander, follow your order. Except for one team responsible for staying behind, the other twelve formal team members and the second-stage training reserve team members, a total of 108 people were in place. Please instruct the squadron leader of the Feiying Special Team, Wu Zhongyuan!"
Although the current special forces have only 32 official members, in order to expand in the future, Deng Chenggong specially set them as a brigade organization during the reorganization. He served as the captain, and the squadron leader was the original three team leaders. Moreover, in order to highlight the excellence of the special forces, the lowest positions of the special forces members are the first lieutenant level, and the squadron leader wears the rank of major. This means that if Wu Zhongyuan is at the time of serving in the militia regiment, he will at least be an officer at the level of battalion commander.
A 19-year-old major is afraid that it will be difficult to find one of the regular troops now, but the rank of this unit is entirely calculated by Deng Chenggong alone. In his opinion, the rank of military rank has nothing to do with age. As long as you have the ability, you can be a lieutenant colonel at the age of nineteen. It is not difficult, how dare he, the commander, promote himself to a major general-level officer at the age of less than twenty-seven?
Deng Chenggong replied to Wu Zhongyuan with a military salute, walked to this army full of fighting desire and said, "I am very happy to see that you can be at the prescribed time. This proves that your training results have been reflected in this period. The reason why I brought you all here this time is to tell you one thing that a qualified special forces member not only needs the ability to capture tigers in the mountains, but also has the ability to capture dragons in the sea. Because you don't know what harsh combat environment you will face in the future, it is very necessary for me to let you master as many special forces skills as possible.
This time I will transfer you here. First, I will select some tasks and evaluate the reserve team members. Second, I will use the rare and complex water surface area of Baiyangdian to teach you some special combat skills about underwater combat. Needless to say, you should know that many of you are landslides. If you do not master the skilled water combat skills and encounter such emergencies in the future, will you stay on the shore and let the enemy shoot them?
So I hope you can take the next water training seriously. You old players are very clear about my temper. If you fail the training, you will lose the qualification to wear the flying eagle mark, so you must also be serious. Don’t think that you are a formal player and are qualified to be proud.
You should know that the size of the Flying Eagle Brigade will not exceed 300 people in the past two years. With the current military source of our militia column, I don’t believe that I can’t pick out soldiers stronger than you. Not to mention the number of them, you shouldn’t have a good rest these two days. Today I will make an exception to give you a night of rest. Starting tomorrow, I will take you with you for a series of underwater special combat training. Because my temper has never been very good during training, you all need to be mentally prepared."
After giving these always arrogant special forces members a warning, Deng Chenggong told Wu Zhongyuan to command these team members to move in, and he continued to wander around to inspect. In order to understand the environment of this lake as much as possible, he specially asked Wang Chao to find a few old fishermen to wander around the lake for two days.
If you find this winding lake, you can break in if you don’t lead the way. Maybe you won’t find the way for a long time. First, the lake is too wide, and second, the reeds growing in the lake are endless. In addition, there are all channels that are only suitable for small wooden boats. If no one leads the way, you really dare not enter this reed easily.
Through the observations of the past two days, Deng successfully discovered that this lake is not only a good place for guerrilla combat, but the most important thing is that the fishery resources in this lake are extremely rich. Not to mention the nest of wild duck eggs and bird eggs in the reeds, you can't pick up the fish clearly visible in the lake, which is enough to make the people who own this lake area not worry about hunger.
There is also the lotus lake that grows naturally in the lake. Some fishermen who are good at water have the ability to pick and dig lotus seeds and lotus roots grown in it, and sell them on the market for some money to supplement their household expenses. In short, the people living here are much better than those inland.
Although the people here have treasure land, Deng Chenggong learned that although most of the people here will not be hungry. However, due to the long-term tax policy implemented by the government, most of the things these people caught from the lake every year must be paid to the local government. If they want to live a good life, they must work hard and double down to achieve it. This is also why the Chinese people who think that life can be made up for as long as they can eat enough, is also why they can always tolerate the high tax burden of the local government.
After learning that following this lake, it was possible to directly connect to large cities such as Peiping and Tiangui, Deng Chenggong considered building this place into a water channel for militia. If he had the opportunity to purchase some special supplies from the second place in the future, he could also transport it to the place by ship. But he thought that soon after, this water channel was seriously controlled by the Japanese army. Deng Chenggong also began to consider whether it was necessary to form a water guerrilla team and equip the troops with some heavy weapons such as gunboats. Otherwise, it would be difficult to collect this water channel as used.
Fortunately, according to his understanding, the ships that can pass through this water passage cannot be too large, otherwise it is likely to hit the bottom. This also means that in the future, if the Japanese army wants to round them up, only gunboats with tonnage can be deployed. Although these gunboats are unable to be used for the time being, as long as they dare to enter the narrow river channel, they will have the chance to seize them with people and ships. At that time, using the confiscated gunboats, it may be impossible to form a water militia brigade that has always been enough to fight against the Japanese encirclement.
As for purchasing gunboats to form them by themselves, Deng Chenggong just turned around and quickly gave up the idea. Not to mention that a gunboat is expensive, even if it is bought, it is not possible to use the militia brigade for the time being. It would be better to wait until the Japanese come in the future and let them be their own transportation brigade leader to come comfortably.
Deng Chenggong, who made up his mind to build a water militia brigade that could always fight against the Japanese, felt more and more that he was very necessary to bring the special forces here for training this time. Because the teams that were able to seize people and ships for a long time could only rely on the special forces. As for cultivating a militia team with strong water properties, I believe it is not difficult to find such talents here, but at the same time, those who need to master the ability of military combat will probably not be able to find several people after passing through the entire district.
For this reason, in the next month, the birds and beasts in Baiyangdian were in great danger and were swept around by Deng Chenggong and his special forces. It was not until each special forces member could lurk at the bottom of the water and captured the birds swimming on the lake empty-handed that Deng Chenggong announced that the water training was over.
