Chapter 13 Selection of Members

At noon in March, the temperature rises to about 10 degrees Celsius under the sun, and although it is close to the sea, it is comfortable to be outdoors when there is no wind. After the expansion, the Tianfen People's League was full of 500 people, standing in line on the playground and waiting for the review of the head of the regiment, Hu Wenkai.

Wearing uniform and carrying guns, the pride rose in the hearts of the gang members, and the members of this civilian team were not so easy to be members, first of all, they had to be from Haimen County, and they had to have no criminal records and vices, and they had to be guaranteed by the village committee of their village, and only men who were in good health and about 20 years old could be eligible to be selected.

Today, it was rumored that Hu Wenkai, the head of the regiment, would personally come to inspect the militia, and the captains of each team kept asking the team members to cheer up and not to lose their face in front of the regiment commander.

Hu Wenkai walked to the front of the playground in the company of Jiang Qiuming and Yang Siliang, dressed in a militia uniform and wearing a pistol, and said to the members of the militia that the mission of the Tianfen militia is first to protect the safe production of the Tianfen industrial base, and the second is to protect the safety of the lives and property of the people in Tianfen and even Haimen County.

Since I am standing and talking to you, I will give you a promise, if I will shock you, let you know what it means to be a member of the civilian team, and you will be selected for the special team, and your salary will be raised. You are a mule or a horse, stand up for me and walk, and after three months the mule stays, and it is the horse that joins the secret service.

From now on, I will run 10 roads of armed cross-country with you, and the top 100 will be eligible to enter my eyes. After speaking, Hu Wenkai took the rifle from Jiang Qiuming, stood on his shoulder, and waited for Yang Siliang to give the order.

There was a lot of chatter on the playground, I didn't expect the head of the regiment to be so young, and I didn't expect the head of the regiment to play with us. In their impression, the commander always rode a horse and watched the members of the group practice, and today he actually wanted to run a race with them. The members of the group below are talking about preparing to throw this head Hu who doesn't know how high the sky is, how thick it is, and he is far away.

Hu Wenkai ran in the middle of the team with a gun on his back, talking to the members around him from time to time, and a group of young people ran forward with all their strength and threw Hu Wenkai far away. Less than two kilometers, someone staggered and slowed down, squatting on the side of the road with a gun, panting, Hu Wenkai said loudly, adjust his breathing, and he couldn't stop keeping up with small steps.

When he turned back five kilometers later, only more than 20 people around him could keep up with Hu Wenkai, and Hu Wenkai cheered up the members around him while running, so that they could adjust their breathing and run at a uniform speed. At 8 kilometers, Hu Wenkai began to accelerate with three rifles on his back, leaving the members of the civilian team far behind.

The first to reach the finish line playground looked at the empty back, Hu Wenkai set up the three rifles, sorted out his clothes, and said to Yang Siliang and Jiang Qiuming that he was a little tired if he was old.

Yang Siliang and Jiang Qiuming looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly, this boss is a demon, he is younger than them, and he is old. Thinking about how the boss could be their boss if he was not evil, the three of them stood at the entrance of the playground and counted the first hundred members who arrived, and after the one hundred were completed, Hu Wenkai directly led them, and the remaining four hundred continued to practice under the leadership of Xu Fusheng.

One hundred exhausted soldiers were brought to the shooting range, on which ten target positions had been erected, and Hu Wenkai stood upright on the target positions and quickly pulled out his pistol to shoot continuously. After a while, the target reporter loudly reported seven bullets and 70 rings, changed the target position, operated the Mauser rifle and pressed the bullets, and shot a total of 10 bullets one by one, and the team members behind them silently counted in their hearts.

The target reporter held up the target paper in front of the team members and said ten bullets and ten rings, and everyone laughed. The eyes in the front row are straight, and the back ones are smiling happily. The target reporter Yang Yang Yang held the target paper in his hand and continued, saying that all ten bullets hit the bull's-eye. Hand the target to the team to see.

The whistle sounded in Hu Wenkai's mouth, and he looked at the members of the civilian team who had been briefly trained by Jiang Qiuming and thought that this was too far from the requirements. A row of ten people was arranged from left to right in order of height, and Hu Wenkai commanded, in his opinion, that the team was chaotic and rearranged.

One person fires ten bullets to hit the target, and more than 70 rings are considered qualified and selected. Muslim groups under the 70th Ring. The first platoon lay on the ground, set up their guns, fired a shot with full concentration, pulled the bolt and continued to aim.

The gunfire rang out one after another, and the team members who did not pass the test left the shooting range with their heads bowed and dejected. In the end, 63 people stayed, Hu Wenkai circled around these 63 people and asked for literacy, and more than 40 people raised their hands.

Hu Wenkai nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask, if you graduated from junior high school, please raise your hand, nine people raised their hands, and beckoned these nine people to ask one by one, the highest level of education is a high school graduate, two people, one is Sun Minghui from Tianfen Township, thin and tall, with a dark face and bright eyes, and Hu Wenkai is about 20 years older. The other Li Wenjun has a sturdy figure, a shaved head, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a bright eye, a firm nose, and a beard on his face like a steel brush.

Li Wenjun served as the leader of the special task force, Sun Minghui served as the deputy captain, and seven members of the team who had been initially Chinese were appointed as the team leaders. After the appointment, he boarded three trucks and drove to a place near the Dragon King Temple thirty miles away by the sea.

Playgrounds, dormitories, obstacle ranges, and shooting ranges are all available, and the 400-meter obstacle course composed of low pile nets, high and low jumping platforms, high walls, single-plank bridges, low walls, deep pits, and pile jumps has also been copied by Hu Wenkai.

A room for 10 people has five bunk beds, toiletries, and quilts. In the library, military books such as the construction and principles of firearms and infantry combat manuals are neatly arranged. The first thing everyone did when they got out of the car was to change into grass-green combat training uniforms and rubber-soled sneakers.

Gathered in front of the 400-meter obstacle course, Hu Wenkai rushed out vigorously like a cheetah, leaned over three times and two times through the low pile net, jumped and grabbed the high bar body swinging one grid after another leisurely over the high and low jumping platform, accelerated and jumped up with one hand on the high wall to easily climb over the past, the single-plank bridge and the low wall accelerated like a 100-meter sprint, rolled down the deep pit one by one, and came out of the deep pit in a blink of an eye, and could walk over the jumping pile with his eyes closed.

Sixty-three people burst into applause, and Jiang Qiuming and Yang Siliang applauded loudly as if they had met the boss for the first time. Hu Wenkai patted the dust on his body, came to the front of the team, pointed to the training ground, and said: "In the next few months, you will be conducting closed training here, and those who have difficulties and cannot train can now raise their hands to return to the militia group, but as long as they stay, they must complete the training." ”

No one was willing to make jokes about the Hui militia group, and it was not easy to select who would give up. But the following requirements are all dumbfounded, get up at 5:30 in the morning, add 20 kilograms of weight to each person to run 5,000 meters, and train 300 times up and down the hook ladder at 8:00. 300 trips back and forth through 30-meter barbed wire, 400-meter obstacle course at 10:00, 13:30 anti-sun body training: holding a rifle flat, hanging a brick with a rope at the muzzle, and basking motionless for 2 hours.

16:00 Target shooting training for 1 hour, and then practice reverse gong, sanda, hard qigong, etc. Half an hour after dinner, continue to run 5000 meters with a weight of 20 kilograms, cultural education in the evening, and a cross-country march training of 25 kilometers and 30 kilograms for 7 days.

Before the disbandment, Hu Wenkai issued the first order, and the whole team must speak in Chinese. Those who can't teach each other and can't communicate in Chinese for a month will be kicked out of the team. After sending Yang Siliang and Jiang Qiuming away in the evening, the canteen opened for dinner, and the braised pork, boiled fish, and radish soup made the team members who had been exercising vigorously all afternoon overjoyed.

For an hour in the evening, Hu Wenkai explained the principles of firearms, decomposition* and pistols. Hu Wenkai had a headache and was constantly asked questions by dozens of firearms whites, and finally ended the first night's class with foam on his lips.

The assembly whistle sounded at 5:30 p.m. the next day, and the team was assembled after 10 minutes. The next time the team that can't be completed in five minutes gathers the whole team has no breakfast to eat with the captain as a companion, Hu Wenkai pointed to a few team leaders and shouted.

Sixty-four sandbags, one by one, carrying Hu Wenkai and leading the team to run in front, how can an untrained young man run down a weight of 5 kilometers. Hu Wenkai also knew this truth, and when he saw a team member starting to walk tiredly two kilometers, he stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and asked him to hold on and not give up.

When Li Wenjun finished the race, Hu Wenkai instructed him to take the whole team out for 35 minutes within a month. It's too difficult, Li Wenjun was completed in 43 minutes, and he already belongs to the forefront of the team, Hu Wenkai shouted loudly, no matter how difficult it is, you have to achieve it, this is the most basic physical training.
