"Platoon commander, have you seen everything?"

"It's best if nothing happens. It's so scary. How can you two still keep calm?"

Wang Ke did not explain that in that case, there was no way to escape except jumping off the cliff.

"What does the snake look like?"

"The whole body is golden, and the others are the same as cobras." Gu Maolin answered first. He was scared to think about it now. This may be the most venomous snake he has ever encountered. Originally, he only heard about it from his grandfather. But it is possible to encounter such a venomous snake in this life.

, and he escaped unscathed, which can be regarded as a blessing for three lifetimes.

The three people quickly climbed to the top of the cliff. Fortunately, no one except the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun noticed the frightening moment Wang Ke and Gu Maolin experienced on the eagle's mouth.

"Let's gather."

The old platoon leader Hu Zhijun said to Wang Ke. Before Wang Ke could answer, the old squad leader Huang Zhonghe immediately jumped up and shouted: "Gather."

The command platoon quickly assembled. Wang Ke said to the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun: "Platoon leader, please comment on today's work!"

"good."

Today, the command platoon found several companies to conduct actual combat simulation training areas. Moreover, the reconnaissance team also accurately derived more than a dozen coordinate positions including the eagle's mouth, which provided a basis for the next company training. The old platoon leader

Hu Zhijun was still very satisfied overall. After the comments, the command platoon began to go down the mountain.

At a "T"-shaped intersection, you cannot go down the mountain, so you can only go back the same way. After walking back a few hundred meters, the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun decided to go down the east side of the mountain instead of returning from the swamp. In this way,

Just go around the elephant-leg cliff and cross the road, which is the dirt road leading to Longquanzhuang.

Before five o'clock in the afternoon, all the cadres and soldiers of the command platoon returned to the company. After a short rest, Wang Ke came to the place where the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun lived.

The old platoon leader Hu Zhijun and the deputy company commander Lu Zeran were discussing today's gains. When they saw Wang Ke coming, the two men immediately stopped talking and pulled Wang Ke to sit on the bed.

"Commander the platoon, tell me about the big snake you encountered today." Deputy company commander Lu Zeran asked Wang Ke on a whim. He had just heard Hu Zhijun talk about the eagle's mouth.

Wang Ke smiled. In fact, when he and Gu Maolin were sitting cross-legged, they happened to be seen through the telescope by the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun. What they may need now is how to lie and cover up the fact that Gu Maolin understands snake language. Otherwise, if he let

The old platoon leader Hu Zhijun and the deputy company commander Lu Zeran knew that he and Gu Maolin's communication with the snake would cause a lot of trouble later on.

But this matter needs to be said with both nose and eyes, otherwise the two leaders will not be easy to fool.

So, Wang Ke started from the swamp. He talked about how the goshawk caught the snake and was poisoned and fell down. Wang Ke mistakenly thought that there were poisonous snakes in the grass in the swamp, so he cut down the sticks and pulled out the grass to drive away the snakes.

"Wait a minute, platoon leader, what you said is wrong. The snake caught by the goshawk may not be non-venomous, and the snake above the eagle's beak may not have poisoned it!" Hu Zhijun, the old platoon leader, was also immersed in the scene.

, he saw an eagle falling from poison, and also saw a golden cobra several meters long.

Yes, Wang Ke, how can you be so arbitrary? What would you say if the company organizes training and passes through that grassy beach or swamp and is attacked by a snake?

Thinking of this, Wang Ke couldn't help but feel ashamed. "Yes, platoon leader, what I said was not accurate enough."

"Commander platoon commander, can I understand that to go to the training ground you scouted today, you have to pass through this grassy beach and swamp?" Deputy company commander Lu Zeran asked quickly.

"This road is the closest and is more suitable for the maneuver of our artillery company. Of course, the road we took back today is also OK, but it is more difficult to walk up and down the mountain, and the trees are too dense. If people don't follow closely, once they fall behind, they will fall behind.

They couldn't be found immediately." Wang Ke thought of the pitch pine trees all over the mountains and plains. If they were carrying the barrels and shell boxes, and the chassis and gun mounts on their backs, the soldiers might not even be able to stand up straight. In addition, if it was night, they might be holding hands.

, people will lose half of their lives.

Wang Ke explained his concerns and the objective situation on the ridge to deputy company commander Lu Zeran.

But as soon as Wang Ke finished speaking, the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun said immediately: "I don't agree."

Wang Ke was stunned. Could it be that his description was not clear enough?

"I think the complex terrain is exactly the actual combat effect we are pursuing. Command the platoon leader, if this happens in future wars, we will not fight? Also, how can there be so many good roads for you to take on the battlefield?

"

"Yes." Deputy company commander Lu Zeran agreed.

The two leaders sang in harmony, and Wang Ke was speechless. Yes, he came up with everything based on actual combat. Why did he forget this again? When it comes to actual combat, when he encounters specific problems, he goes back to the old way?

"So, I think we have to take both paths, and we have to make it more difficult and increase training programs that are interspersed and carried out at night. As for snakes and pitch pine, including getting lost, we must find ways to overcome them."

Platoon leader Hu Zhijun tapped the kang table with his fingers, then took a military teapot to pour water for Wang Ke.

"Commander platoon leader, do you hear that? This is the difference between you and the old platoon leader!" Deputy company commander Lu Zeran said to Wang Ke with a smile. When he heard this, he felt deeply in his heart.

Wang Ke was a little embarrassed, what the two old leaders were criticizing was. He stood up quickly, took the teapot handed over by the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun, and held his legs together. "Yes, platoon leader, I forgot the original intention of our reconnaissance.

.”

"Commander platoon leader, come on, come on, sit down and continue to tell the story about you and the cobra." The old platoon leader Hu Zhijun returned to the old topic. In fact, he never understood why Wang Ke and Gu Maolin didn't run at that time? Instead, they crossed their legs.

I sat down and finally watched the big snake retreat on its own.

Wang Ke sat down again, took a sip of water, put the teapot on the kang table, and continued: "Okay, then I won't say anything else and go directly to the topic. Let's talk about the golden cobra."

"Wait a minute, platoon leader, you said the big snake you encountered is called the 'Golden Cobra'?" Hu Zhijun, the veteran platoon leader, was stunned. Just hearing this name is dangerous enough.

"Well, I heard from Gu Maolin that his grandfather told him about the characteristics of this snake, and that this snake is as venomous as the black mamba in Africa. However, I heard from Gu Maolin that this snake should

It also exists in the south, but why it appears in the Western Mountains, he doesn't know. Moreover, this is the first time he has seen this kind of snake."

"Can you tell it is a golden cobra when you see it for the first time?" Hu Zhijun, the veteran platoon leader, continued to question.

Wang Ke had no way to explain Gu Maolin's family history, so he could only be careless and express that he had nothing to say.

"But if it can grow to such a big size on the top of the cliff, it doesn't look like an ordinary snake." Old platoon leader Hu Zhijun added.

"Command the platoon leader, don't listen to your platoon leader's interruption, continue to talk about your adventures." Deputy company commander Lu Zeran was completely attracted by the story of the snake at this time.

"Yes." Wang Ke agreed. Before encountering this golden cobra, the road from the T-shaped intersection to the Eagle's Mouth had to be talked about. So Wang Ke told him and Gu Maolin about the difficult adventure on Daofeng.

After one thing was said, the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun stopped talking when he got to the creepy part.

"Commander Hu, why didn't you bite the bullet?" Deputy Company Commander Lu Zeran joked.

"Haha, Lao Lu, don't stand and talk without pain in your back. If you were at the scene and walked down from the height of 100 meters along the knife peak to the eagle's mouth, I bet you are not as good as me. I am only a few dozen meters behind.

Far away, because the wind is too strong." The old platoon leader Hu Zhijun was also polite. The more he said this, the more enthusiastic he became, the deputy company commander Lu Zeran.

"I saw that the snake's head was about the size of a small bowl. The dead eagle and the snake in its belly must have been swallowed by it together." Wang Ke gestured and then talked about the piece on the eagle's beak.

The "peaked cap" big stone, talking about the smaller male snake, said that the snake stood upright more than a foot high, spitting out the black letter from its mouth, and made a "silk" sound.

Deputy company commander Lu Zeran trembled visibly, and then he asked: "Why don't you run?"

"Where to run? Besides jumping off the cliff." Wang Ke swallowed and continued: "We heard that the cobra's eyesight is not good. If you don't move around, it will not attack you."

"Is this the reason why you are sitting down?" Hu Zhijun, the old platoon leader, became more and more frightened as he thought about it. This was scarier than walking on Daofeng.

"Um."

"there is none left?"

"No more. Later, the big snake circled around us. It probably felt that we were too big to swallow, so we gave up." Wang Ke explained, half-jokingly.

But this joke is not funny at all, and I will never laugh it off again. And if possible, a sign should be erected at the T-junction, saying that if you go up rashly, you will definitely die.

"Okay, commanding platoon leader, you go back and come up with suggestions for improving the training subjects. Specific to the coordinate points, we have to discuss it with the company first, and then report it to the regiment for approval after a unified understanding. We will try to start the new training next week.

In the training area, conduct multi-round, multi-condition, multi-area practical drills.”

"yes!"

Wang Ke politely saluted the old platoon leader Hu Zhijun and the deputy company commander Lu Zeran, then turned back and walked out.

Returning to the house of his landlord, Uncle Geng, Wang Ke immediately informed the three squad leaders of a meeting after dinner. He first listed a few ideas on a piece of paper, as well as the main subjects of training.

There is no road in life that is in vain, every step counts. There is no sweat in life that is in vain, every drop counts.

Hard work is addictive, especially when you taste the benefits.

After dinner, the four backbone members of the command platoon held a meeting in Wang Ke's room. Finally, Song Ruimin was tasked with organizing and proposing eight major training contents.

1. Interleave training for the whole company (day and night), carry out swamp penetration and pitch pine ridge penetration under specified time and conditions, and arrive at the designated area to stand by.

2. The whole company is fully armed (day and night) and marches according to the azimuth for training.

3. Artillery squad positioning training (day and night) can quickly determine the location of artillery positions.

4. The command platoon cannot carry out surveying and mapping conditions (day and night), close reconnaissance, rapid response, and precise command training.

5. Whole company field survival training.

6. Whole company battlefield rescue and self-rescue training.

7. Full-company chemical defense training and live-fire shooting training under chemical conditions.

8. Coordinated shooting training for the entire company.

Except for the sixth and seventh items of these eight training contents, which can be completed in Longquanzhuang, the others can be trained repeatedly in newly opened areas.

That night, this proposal to adjust the training content was reported to the company before lights out. Several company leaders immediately held a meeting to study it, and then Hu Zhijun sorted it out and copied it clearly from the company's documents. The next day, Hu Zhijun took this with him

I suggested that I make a special trip to the headquarters to report.
Chapter completed!
