Chapter 312 Granny
If Peter was just introducing the Expeditionary Force to the US military soldiers, the response caused was probably still very local.
But almost every US military adviser promotes Chinese soldiers in this way, which will have a great impact on the Fourth Division of the US military, especially the soldiers of the Fourth Division of the US military are almost all rookies who have never been on the battlefield. Therefore, the admiration for these "killing people" Chinese soldiers is like the surging rivers and endlessly.
Of course, there are some exceptions... As the saying goes, there are birds in the forest. Some US military advisers have negative attitudes towards following Chinese soldiers to the battlefield, or they are not getting along well with Chinese soldiers. So when talking to American soldiers, they try every means to discredit them, such as Chinese soldiers who do not obey orders (actually they are unwilling to obey their orders), such as not having enough tactics (if they can survive on the battlefield, who still cares whether the tactics are standard enough), etc.
But the US soldiers are not stupid either... If most US military advisers say that Chinese soldiers are great, and only one Chinese soldier is bad, then what they think of first is whether there is any problem with this small number of US military advisers.
Then they quickly figured out...
"It turned out that he was commanding randomly on the battlefield, so the Chinese soldiers refused to execute his orders!"
"It's really damn for such a commander, because he always uses other people's lives to make up for his stupidity!"
"If such a commander was in our troops, I would have killed him with my own hands!"
The last sentence is not a joke. The US military did do many such things on the battlefield... Just like when American soldiers assassinated Stilwell in Myanmar, Stilwell did not even do anything wrong. He just hopes to treat US soldiers with the requirements of treating Chinese soldiers, to be precise, the US special forces, but the US special forces cannot stand this "abuse" and have a murderous intent.
In other places, even in the modern Vietnam battlefield, there have been many similar things... The way for American soldiers to deal with commanders who randomly command on the battlefield is to get them injured and then change them to another person. Of course, there are many ways to "get" and it is difficult to grasp the scale. However, the same point is that they will all make a sneak attack that is fake, which causes such a result.
It is actually understandable that American soldiers will do this, because if they do not, they will likely lose their lives under the command of the commander.
What else is more important than life? Especially the lives of so many people!
Military court?
Let him go to hell!
Therefore, the battlefield often forms its own set of rules, which cannot be said to be completely different from a peaceful society that is bound by laws in the rear. A peaceful society still has a close relationship with soldiers on the front-line battlefield.
However, a peaceful society is bound by law, and the battlefield can almost be said to have jumped out of this circle to form its own set of "laws".
The reason for this is very simple and primitive, that is, for survival and for survival!
Similarly, the Fourth Division of the US Army at this time was also facing a survival crisis, and what could make them come back alive, or rather increase their chances of survival, was to learn from the Chinese soldiers.
This kind of learning includes many small experiences, such as smoking is strictly prohibited, especially in the dark, because it will make you a target for Japanese snipers, and for example, don’t salute the superior.
Chinese soldiers are also happy to teach these experiences to American soldiers, and even Chinese soldiers have brought several American apprentices in private... After all, Chinese soldiers have received generous supplies and equipment, and the Chinese are grateful for their kindness. Although strictly speaking, this is due to national interests, from the perspective of personal feelings, Chinese soldiers are still very grateful to the Americans, so many people are not stingy in passing on battlefield experience to American soldiers.
This is actually what Major General Jack, the commander of the Fourth Division of the United States, hoped... He did not want to learn these experiences, but could not hold back his face. Now that he did not have to lose face and learned combat experience in Sino-US exchanges, why would he not do it?!
Zhang Chi also agreed to these things.
This is because the US military is strong and it will also benefit the Chinese team. If you don’t mention the new army, you should lose less troops!
On the other hand, Zhang Chi is very clear that such learning is not systematic after all, and combat experience is just something you can't learn... More often, now it seems that you know everything, and when the gunfire sounds, your mind will be blank and you will forget everything.
So Zhang Chi actually didn't care about this at all.
What made Zhang Chi feel a little touched was an old British lady selling cakes in front of the military camp.
Originally, Zhang Chi thought she was an American, but she only realized that she was a British person when she bought cakes. Because Zhang Chi knew English, she chatted with her for a few words.
"It's great that you actually understand English!" The old lady couldn't help but shed tears.
Zhang Chi was a little surprised by this... Can the old lady be moved like this by understanding English?
"Sorry!" The old lady looked at Zhang Chi's puzzled expression and explained: "I am a British man. My husband was invited by the Americans to work in the arsenal. I came here with him..."
"Oh!" Zhang Chi couldn't help but nodded after hearing this.
At this time, Britain was an old industrial power, while the United States was also an emerging industrial power, so many technologies had to be learned from the British. The arsenal did hire a group of senior British technicians.
"But... why are you selling cakes here?" Then Zhang Chi felt strange. Senior technicians are not short of money. Why do the old lady still sell cakes here?!
"That's right!" The old lady replied kindly: "I have a son who fought against Germany on the battlefield in North Africa. After he sent a letter from Algeria, he had no news again! Life and death are still unknown. I am selling cakes here, not because of the difficulties of life. In fact... the cakes I sell are so cheap that they are not even cost-effective. I just want to see you, look at you children who go to the battlefield to fight, look at you children who are lucky to come back, which will remind me of my children!"
As he said that, the old lady shed another stream of tears.
Listening to Zhang Chi couldn't help feeling a little sour... This may be the cruelty of war. It is not just as simple as taking away a soldier, it also takes away the sustenance and longing of relatives.
Zhang Chi bought a cake. The cake was delicious and special because it has the taste of home and the taste of longing.
