1942, I lived on hunting

This time, the leaders put a lot of effort into building a training ground and properly relocating the villagers to other places. Some elite soldiers were transferred from various troops as backup personnel to help with duty and stand guard. The logistics supplies were also provided as much as possible, and even the chefs were equipped with three different cuisines.

The instructor introduced Li Hao to everyone and appointed him as the chief instructor, responsible for teaching battlefield concealment and indoor combat. Li Hao was also responsible for arranging the final assessment. Then he asked everyone to sit down and introduce themselves one by one.

The instructor started: "My name is Yu Yourong, I am 25 years old this year, graduated from Jixian Normal University, joined the army for 6 years, served as a grassroots combat commander for 5 years, served as squad leader, deputy platoon leader, platoon leader, deputy team leader, instructor, and now I have been appointed by my superiors as a squad commander."

Grenadier: "My name is Wang Datou. I'm 20 years old this year. I can't read. I used to raise ducks in Baiyangdian. I've been in the army for 3 years. Now I'm a grenadier and assaulter."

Observer: "My name is Xu Xiaofei, I am 22 years old this year, graduated from Shanxi Provincial No. Middle School, served in the army for two years, and served as a squad leader and deputy platoon leader. I am currently an observer and precision shooter in the sniper team."

Demolitionist: "Zhu Laoliu, 31 years old this year, studied in a private school for a few years and served in the army for 11 years. He served as squad leader, deputy platoon leader, platoon leader, and deputy company commander. He is currently a demolitionist and assaulter."

Commando 3: "Xu Jiacai, 27 years old this year, used to be a gangster, proficient in all kinds of tricks, good at makeup and ventriloquism. Currently serves as a squad commando and rifleman."

Japanese teacher: "Tong Youwei, 52 years old this year, graduated from the European and American Preparatory School in Henan in 1915, and studied in Waseda University in the East, graduating in 1919. After graduation, he worked as an employee in Shanghai Mitsui Co., Ltd. For more than ten years, he worked in many Japanese companies, and later opened his own factory and company to engage in import and export trade. He was exposed while collecting intelligence in 1938 and evacuated Shanghai to Chongqing. Last year, he was exposed while collecting intelligence in Chongqing and evacuated Chongqing to Yan'an. In September this year, he was engaged in intelligence work in Peiping. After being exposed, he withdrew to the Taihang Mountain Revolutionary Base in Hebei. He came here to serve as a Japanese teacher under the order of his superiors."

Li Hao was surprised to hear the self-introduction of Japanese teacher Tong Youwei. This guy is incredible! You know, the principle of the secret front is that it must not be exposed. Once exposed, it is worse than death. This great god was exposed three times and still returned to his own camp alive and well. It's really a miracle!

Then the reserve personnel and logistics personnel also introduced themselves. The reserve candidates were organized into a reinforced platoon with a total of more than 50 people. They usually stand guard on duty and serve as imaginary enemy troops. When they are not on duty, they can follow the training. Once a better candidate is found, they can be selected to the special operations team. Platoon leader Liu Yuwen and deputy platoon leader Zhou Shunping are both excellent commanders at the grassroots level, and the soldiers in the platoon are also veterans who have fought for many years. The reinforced platoon is directly led by the instructor, but the instructor still has to train with the special operations team. I am afraid that Li Hao will be more likely to command them in the future. The logistics personnel mainly introduced the leader Lao Yang, the armory manager and gun repairman, the material custodian and several cooks, and finally Captain Li and the transport team he led. They are also considered part of the logistics personnel, but most of them are not stationed here.

Next, the leaders spoke. Captain Li spoke first. Captain Li conveyed the leaders' attention and care, and also stated the leaders' expectations and requirements. The instructor continued to speak, saying that we must not let down the leaders and comrades' care and expectations, and must train hard, strive to complete their studies as soon as possible, and fight against the Japanese puppet army as soon as possible. Then he encouraged everyone. It must be said that the two of them were very good at mobilizing everyone's enthusiasm. The affectionate words made everyone enthusiastic. Li Hao was also excited after listening to it. He wanted to go out and find trouble with the Japanese puppet army right now to let them know how many eyes the horse king has!

After the speech, it was time to eat.

Li Hao arranged the main dishes in advance, but not every table had them. The table of the special operations team not only had a casserole made of hot pot ingredients, but also a bowl of fried chicken for each person. The others, including the backup personnel and Captain Li and his group of logistics personnel, ate well, with meat, vegetables, and steamed bread to fill their stomachs, but there was still a clear gap between them and the special operations team. The instructor and Captain Li knew the reason and did not say anything, but the special operations team members did not understand. They felt that they were being treated specially, as if they were being roasted on the fire, and looked at each other in bewilderment. When the instructor saw that no one was moving their chopsticks, he directly ordered: "Eat!" Everyone started to eat in confusion.

The special operations team members found the sumptuous meal tasteless. When they were about to wash the dishes after the meal, Li Hao ordered them to put them down and leave the dishwashing job to the logistics staff while the others prepared to go to class.

Captain Li's former subordinates always felt uncomfortable when they saw Captain Li and the logistics personnel cleaning up the pots, pans, and dishes. They felt that Li Hao was really messing around, and the principle of equality between officers and soldiers and doing one's own thing was completely destroyed by him.
