Chapter 62 The Nature of War (asking for monthly recommendation tickets)
A group of 5000 people walked on the land, followed by packhorses and ox carts carrying enough food for tens of thousands of people to eat for a week. The group stretched for several thousand meters.
The sun was shining, the wind blew the grass low, and the rice on both sides of the road swayed in the wind. Many farmers were harvesting in the fields. When they saw so many soldiers with guns, they all stood up to watch. They all knew that they were going to fight the natives. This matter had already spread to all the immigrants.
This time, 5000 militiamen cleared out the warehouse of the Thor Military Factory, causing Li Fusheng and his colleagues to work 16 hours a day and are not expected to have a holiday for at least two months.
Zhang Feng was riding on a horse, holding his youngest son, Zhang Chenghan, in his arms. In this vast place, he felt the magnificence of nature, as if he was in a rural pastoral painting, if he ignored the thousands of troops behind him.
He was a little excited at this moment. Leading 5000 soldiers to the battle made him experience the feeling of being a general. Every time he saw the scene of the army going to the battle in TV dramas, it made his blood boil. After all, which man doesn't have a dream of becoming a general?
"Oh, go!" Zhang Chenghan grabbed the long hair on the horse's neck with both hands and shouted excitedly. The three bodyguards standing side by side with Zhang Feng each had a child in their arms. They were Zhang Chengtian, Zhang Chengyun and Zhang Chengqin. The three of them were also very excited.
"Dad, can I shoot and kill the enemy later?" Zhang Chenghan turned his head and looked at Zhang Feng expectantly.
"After you go there, Dad will check whether it is dangerous or not. If it is not dangerous, I will let you shoot, okay?"
Zhang Feng did not refuse directly. Before, at Monchi Manor, Zhang Feng would often practice shooting with the bodyguards, and he also played with guns with his four older sons. The bullets they wasted were more than those used by hundreds of militiamen during training.
Moreover, these young soldiers might have better psychological quality than these militiamen. Zhang Feng didn't see anything wrong in letting them see blood.
"Dad, I want one too, I want one too!" X3, the other three little ones also begged when they heard it.
"Okay, okay, everyone gets a share." If you drive one sheep, you drive four sheep as well.
In the afternoon, Zhang Feng and his team finally arrived at Meiquan Village. It seemed that today's battle was over. After hearing the scout's report, Xiao Cheng came out to greet Zhang Feng in person.
"Subordinate, I pay my respects to the general." Of course, this was just Zhang Feng's fantasy at the moment.
"Boss, why are you here? It's too dangerous here. Why did Manager Lei ask you to come here?"
Xiao Cheng immediately stepped forward, held the rope of Zhang Feng's horse and said anxiously that as the commander on the front line, he certainly didn't want Zhang Feng, the boss, to come over. He was worried that he would give blind orders and he was even more worried that something might happen to him here. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape death.
"Why are you panicking? I have so many brothers here to protect me. I won't be afraid of just some natives. Take us in quickly. We've been walking for a long time and haven't eaten yet." Zhang Feng shouted sternly.
Xiao Cheng had no choice but to shut up. He led the horse and everyone into the village. He first ordered the logistics staff to cook quickly, especially to prepare a special meal for Zhang Feng, and then organized everyone to unload the supplies brought by Zhang Feng into the warehouse.
Xiao Cheng arranged accommodation for Zhang Feng and the children, and the servants brought by Zhang Feng put the belongings of the five of them into the house.
Zhang Feng brought his son and Xiao Cheng to the open space in the village. At this moment, the place was already full of people. Except for the soldiers who needed to defend the positions, everyone gathered here.
"Brothers, hello, I am the boss of Meihua Company, and also your boss. I went to America alone and created a huge family business. I thought of my compatriots who were still suffering from hunger and war in the mainland, so I funded the establishment of Meihua Company and asked General Manager Lei to rescue everyone and bring them to this beautiful and rich land to build our new home. We no longer have to endure hunger and hunger. I wanted to live a peaceful and tranquil life from now on, but the indigenous people here shamelessly attacked us and wanted to rob us of our land and deprive us of our wealthy life, so we must fight back and defend our home."
"Fight back!"
"Defend your home!"
"Defend your home!"
So the soldiers responded enthusiastically, and the majestic momentum floated in the air for a long time. "Fight back!" "Defend our homeland!" The four little guys at Zhang Feng's feet also followed their example, raised their hands, and shouted loudly.
Zhang Feng's impassioned speech was intended to tell everyone that everything they have now was given by Zhang Feng, and that the person they should be loyal to and work for is Zhang Feng. On the other hand, it was also intended to tell everyone why they are fighting.
It is also teaching his sons the importance of power and money. Just a few casual words will cause countless people to work hard for you and fight to the death to protect your interests. They will also be self-moved and self-PUA.
If someone says a few bad things about you, they will take the initiative to criticize you and others for several hours. If they win, they will be very proud of themselves, but if they lose, they will be very angry inside and cannot let it go for a long time.
What is the nature of war?
Churchill once said: "In war, politicians provide ammunition, the rich provide food, and the poor provide children. After the war, politicians stay in power, the rich get more food, and the poor find graves for children."
In Zhang Feng's eyes, they were just like this at this moment, cannon fodder and tools.
After the interaction with everyone, we will start tonight's show.
Everyone sat down in rows. Zhang Feng brought a lot of meat and drinks today. One was to serve as a greeting between the boss and the employees for the first time, and the other was to reward everyone for their hard work in the battle. Of course, each person only had a small cup of drink to try. After all, this was still the front line of the battlefield and they couldn't drink too much.
In addition, all kinds of performing talents discovered when dubbing movies were brought over to perform various Chinese dramas and other programs for the soldiers, allowing them to relax their tense mood after the killing.
Zhang Feng, Xiao Cheng and several guard captains sat at the top, eating and talking about future wars. His four sons also sat beside him, listening to their father and his men discuss matters.
It can be said that although not all of them will be talents in the future, they will at least be better than 99.99% of people. After all, they have been influenced by their surroundings since childhood and are familiar with how to run a company, communicate with others, and have various skills and so on.
Even if they don't have Zhang Feng's help in the future, they will definitely make a career in this era full of opportunities.
Of course, if it is decades later, then we can only rely on our father.
After a night, Zhang Feng put on the guard uniforms sent by Xiao Cheng in high spirits, and also asked his four sons to wear ordinary people's clothes to reduce the risk of becoming targets.
Then he and Xiao Cheng climbed up to a fortress at the back and picked up a telescope to observe the enemy's movements.
Yesterday, the natives launched another tentative attack, hoping to find loopholes in the defense of Schönbrunn Village, but they returned empty-handed. After all, three thousand people and the powerful firepower of 60 artillery pieces were more than enough to guard a village.
I don’t know if they have found out the information that Zhang Feng led 5000 people to arrive yesterday. Otherwise, they might have retreated back to their hometown today.
"The enemy has started attacking again. It seems they are still not giving up." Xiao Cheng said to Zhang Feng beside him while observing with a telescope.
"Well, the natives are stubborn. They won't give up easily unless you hurt them." Zhang Feng said casually.
"Their commander is still very rational. The losses in the past few days of attacks are not too great. Boss, are we going to give them a tough blow today?" Xiao Cheng asked.
According to his own plan, he would continue to train new recruits, and only after the 5000 new militiamen had adapted, would he launch a counterattack and drive the natives back to their homes.
But he was also afraid that Zhang Feng wanted to expand the results of the victory as quickly as possible and was eager for quick success. After all, reinforcements had come, and he was still timid. The boss might not have a good impression of him.
"No need, just follow your own pace. You were right last night. This is a good opportunity to train our troops." Zhang Feng still had some self-knowledge and did not interfere with the commands recklessly, in order to avoid getting hurt by micro-operations.
