On the other side.
After returning to the base, Zhang Liang immediately went to the Ninth Squad's quarters.
The key to successfully and swiftly taking the Xiao Wang Village stronghold was the Ninth Squad's elimination of the enemy's machine gunner and destruction of the watchtower.
Just as Zhang Liang was deep in thought.
Zhou Ming, who was about to report on the work, saw Zhang Liang walking towards him and asked in confusion, "Captain, why are you here personally?"
Coming back to his senses, Zhang Liang looked at Zhou Ming and praised with a smile, "Zhou Ming, your squad did a great job this time!"
"Your marksmanship has improved, you actually managed to take out the enemy's machine gunner in a row."
"You guys destroyed the watchtower in such a short time, greatly reducing casualties within the team."
"But, how did the watchtower explode in the end?"
Zhou Ming looked a bit proud, then smiled a little awkwardly.
He then recounted the situation.
The watchtower's machine gunner was killed by Su Yang?
The watchtower's explosion was also caused by Su Yang throwing a grenade inside?
Hitting the target from over 100 meters away, at night?!
Throwing a grenade into the watchtower from a 'gunhole' at 30 meters?!
This… this is really a new recruit?
Zhang Liang was also shocked.
It was unbelievable!
After a long moment.
Zhang Liang finally recovered, and looked at Zhou Ming and asked, "Is Su Yang really a new recruit?"
Zhou Ming nodded, "From observations over the past half a month, he really doesn't understand military matters."
"But he has an extraordinary talent, not only is he a fast learner, but he can also apply what he learns to new situations."
"Most importantly, he is diligent and eager to learn, and he exudes a charisma that makes people trust him."
"Before..."
Listening to Zhou Ming's detailed explanation, Zhang Liang became even more curious about Su Yang.
No wonder Zhou Ming arranged for him to live with Shui Sheng, it was to help him grow.
And Su Yang did it.
He even led Shui Sheng to grow quickly.
This time, the Ninth Squad had two such outstanding new recruits, which made Zhang Liang very happy.
"Captain, the Ninth Squad still lacks a deputy captain, I suggest that we let him serve as the deputy squad leader."
"What do you think~~~"
Zhang Liang chuckled and nodded, "Since you think so highly of him, and he has achieved such great feats this time, becoming a deputy squad leader is not excessive."
"I agree."
"Come on, I'll go see this legendary new recruit."
"Please, Captain."
Zhou Ming quickly stepped aside and led Zhang Liang towards the quarters.
At this moment.
In the open space of the quarters.
Su Yang had already, based on the real situation, improved the bayonet technique into 16 movements and key points, and he was explaining the resulting mnemonic to his comrades.
And he was personally demonstrating it.
Thrust, defense against a left strike, hooking kick, forward step impact, outward turn thrust...
Cartridge clip strike against bullet body, horse stance strike to the ribs, forward step chop, rearward chop, defense against downward stab, stand upright with bayonet blocking and side kick.....
Forward step downward smash, horizontal chop downward strike, half-step stance with bayonet raised, forward step horizontal strike, turning thrust.
The entire set of bayonet technique demonstrations flowed smoothly, each movement was full of power, and it made people applaud repeatedly.
It was very lively!
Applause thundered!
Su Yang put away his rifle, bowed slightly, and said, "This is all my own practice, but it's pretty useful."
"You guys can try it, learn from each other."
"As long as it can kill the enemy, it's a good move."
"That's right~," Shui Sheng was the first to agree, "Comrade Su Yang used the defense against a left strike, and the 'Break the Line' kick when he killed the Japanese in the watchtower!"
"The little devil passed out on the spot."
"Hahaha..."
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Zhang Liang and Zhou Ming, who arrived later, couldn't help but laugh as well.
"Su Yang is right, on the battlefield, use everything that can be used, as long as it can kill the enemy, it's a good move."
"But... that 'Break the Line' move is a bit wicked~" Zhou Ming said with a smile, "But, it's not too much against these invaders."
Seeing the captain come back, everyone made way for him.
Su Yang looked at them with a puzzled expression and gave a salute without explaining.
At this time, Zhang Liang looked at Su Yang with a smile and praised, "I have heard about your deeds from your squad leader."
"I never thought that our team would have such a talent."
"I, on behalf of the organization, commend you for your meritorious service, and have decided to appoint you as the deputy squad leader of the Ninth Squad. I hope you will continue to make progress."
"Welcome, everyone."
Hearing this.
Except for Zhou Ming, everyone was shocked by the news.
Su Yang had actually been promoted to deputy squad leader?
He'd only been in the army for half a month!
But thinking about Su Yang's performance, instantly everyone was convinced, and they applauded in celebration.
"Clap clap..."
Su Yang hadn't expected to be promoted so quickly, and after coming back to his senses, he quickly thanked him.
"Thank you for your trust, Captain."
Zhang Liang returned a salute and asked curiously, "Can you demonstrate that bayonet technique mnemonic and moves you practiced just now again?"
"Yes."
