Munitions Empire

Chapter 1140: 1060 Battle Discipline

“Is there anyone from the Second Battalion? Second Battalion!” On the grassland controlled by the Imperial Paratroopers of the Great Tang Empire, an officer wearing a steel helmet and holding a flashlight trudged forward.

With such a large-scale airborne operation, all paratroopers were scattered upon landing. They didn’t know their location; their only option was to gather together, forming one chaotic cluster after another.

Troops from the First Battalion might have mixed with the commanders of the Second Battalion, and it was entirely possible that all troops from the Third Company of the First Battalion had ended up finding their way to the neighboring Second Battalion.

Therefore, when Xiang Ziyu was gathering his company’s troops, among them were soldiers who had strayed from the Second and Third Battalions.

Needless to say, one wouldn’t have to think too hard to realize that the Second Battalion would surely have people from the First Battalion who got lost, and even soldiers or officers from neighboring battalions…

“Dammit, I feel like all our previous drills and training were bloody useless.” Watching the Second Battalion officer swinging his flashlight around on the battlefield, the signalman from the company, unable to restrain his laughter, asked Xiang Ziyu who was standing to the side.

In the previous paratrooper training, not once were officers allowed to stand in the middle of the battlefield, holding flashlights and shouting loudly… This isn’t searching for soldiers; this is like seeking death.

Keep in mind this is still a battlefield where the enemy hasn’t been cleared out yet. Waving a flashlight around in the middle of the night, do you not think you are conspicuous enough? Moving with it while shouting, no less.
