Chapter 30: I am also punished

However, after waking up, Li Ziyuan had the biggest fire since his transfer. Just when he woke up with a big bowl of canned beef stewed with radish and three heterozygous steamed buns to his heart's content, he wanted to see how the troops were training. The scene in front of him almost didn't make him faint, and it also made him extremely rare to be angry at the warrior.

As for the reason for Li Ziyuan's anger, it is very simple, that is, when he was resting in the middle of training, a soldier actually smashed walnuts with the butt of a newly issued 38 rifle to eat them, and Li Ziyuan happened to see them. Seeing a brand-new Type 38 rifle, it was actually so ruined, the angry Li Ziyuan kicked it without saying a word, and directly kicked the soldier into a heel fight.

Li Ziyuan's kick startled the resting troops, and the soldiers who were sitting and chatting all stood up one after another, looking at the angry captain one by one. Several cadres who were fiddling with a crooked machine gun over there also turned around and looked at Li Ziyuan with anger on their faces a little blankly.

Regardless of the stunned soldiers, Li Ziyuan picked up the Type 38 rifle that was used to smash walnuts in distress, and carefully checked it until he didn't see any problems. Putting down the Type 38 rifle in his hand, Li Ziyuan ordered Du Dazhuang, the leader of the first squadron, to immediately gather his troops.

After the troops were assembled, Li Ziyuan took the rifle in his hand, stood in front of the team with an angry face, pointed at the soldier who smashed the walnut and said, "What is this?" It's your fucking weapon, the weapon that kills you on the battlefield and saves your life. Such a valuable thing, even if you can't be a treasure like a wife, you must not fucking use it to smash walnuts. ”

"Lao Tzu gave you a gun, so you can use it to fight devils, not for you to spoil it. The gun is also spiritual, you don't usually take care of it, how can it protect you on the battlefield? If you don't learn to cherish it, it will also make you angry when you go to war. Do you know how many people on the battlefield have even risked their lives to capture a good gun. ”

"How many times have Lao Tzu told you that you must take care of your weapon, just as you love your wife and your own eyes. Only in this way will it not give you diarrhea on the battlefield. That's what the fuck you're doing to your wife at home? Use your wife's hand to smash walnuts for you to eat? ”

Li Ziyuan's hideous expression frightened the soldier, and he said a little overwhelmed: "Captain, I saw that the butt of this gun was very strong, and there was nothing else to do, so I used it temporarily, it's really not that I don't care about weapons." This gun was sent to me, I like it too late, how can I deliberately damage it, I am not a devil and a traitor. There is also the captain, I haven't married yet, I don't have a wife, I really don't know how this wife should hurt. ”

The warrior's answer made Li Ziyuan cry and laugh, but it did not calm his anger. After criticizing the soldiers, Li Ziyuan turned his head to several cadres and said, "If there is a next time, Lao Tzu will remove you from your post." Grandma, how do you usually educate your fighters? Fighters make mistakes, and you are more responsible. ”

"What is a gun? It is the second life of a soldier, more important than your wife. If you love weapons, have you told the warriors? Lao Tzu went to great lengths to get weapons, not for you to fight devils, not for you to smash walnuts. If anyone does such a thing that does not care for weapons again, then hand over the gun to Lao Tzu. ”

"Grandma's, when Lao Tzu was in the Red Army, the first gun he got was an old tooth, the bolt was tied to the gun with a rope, and the bullets were floating away when he fired the old sleeve, and he didn't sleep all night with joy. It's good for you guys to use such a good gun for Lao Tzu to smash walnuts. ”

Li Ziyuan's anger startled everyone, and no one dared to persuade him. Even Chang Juan, who rushed over when she heard the sound, didn't dare to say anything about this matter. Although Chang Juan thinks that it is wrong for Li Ziyuan to beat the soldiers, this matter is indeed very angry.

She also knew how much risk Li Ziyuan had taken to get so many weapons. But the warrior is so uncherished, anyone will be mad if they change. Although as a political cadre, this time Chang Juan did not accuse Li Ziyuan of having a warlord style like last time, but chose to remain silent.

After venting the anger in his heart, Li Ziyuan said to several cadres: "Tomorrow I will start to increase the amount of training, and I will add to the rapid march in the mountains, white-knuckle battles and so on." Still have the leisure to eat pecans here? I don't think the amount of training is enough. And don't you like machine guns, well, you will carry the machine gun to me when you lead the team in training. ”

After Li Ziyuan's words, the faces of several cadres turned white, for fear that Li Ziyuan would do what he said in this matter. It's not that they can't carry it, but when they lead the team to train, they still carry a crooked handle on their shoulders, which doesn't make people laugh after seeing it?

But Li Ziyuan didn't look at these cadres, but turned his head to all the soldiers and said, "You are a whole, brothers who depend on each other for life and death on the battlefield. Because those who make mistakes are your comrades-in-arms, you will all be punished for a mistake. From now on, carry a weapon plus a hundred rounds of ammunition and go cross-country in full gear for five kilometers. ”

"Start running now and finish in half an hour. Whoever is left behind, the canned beef in the evening will be distributed among the others. There are a few of you cadres, and the two squadron leaders each carry a box of bullets. All squad leaders, one person with one rifle on their backs, in addition to their own portable machine guns. ”

After saying this, Li Ziyuan walked up to the crooked man and picked up the machine gun, turned around and said to all the soldiers: "I am your captain, and I have not taught you to cherish weapons, so I will also be punished." I'm carrying this machine gun today, and I'll run with you for the next five kilometers. ”

Li Ziyuan stood like this after carrying the machine gun, and waited until everyone had brought all the equipment and the Japanese-style bullet box was also full of bullets, and then took the lead and ran down the mountain. All the cadres and soldiers behind him, seeing that he had begun to lead, no one dared to speak, so they could only follow silently behind him.

The five-kilometer armed cross-country is undoubtedly still an unfamiliar subject for these fighters. Everyone grew up in the mountains, and running in the mountains is no stranger. But within the specified time, running five kilometers with dozens of pounds of equipment can be regarded as a test for everyone.

But Li Ziyuan just carried a crooked machine gun and always ran in front to lead. All the cadres and fighters, no one dared to say anything, they could only follow behind and try their best to ensure that they would not be left behind. The average soldier is better, carrying only a Type 38 rifle plus a hundred rounds of ammunition, which is not that heavy. A few cadres are miserable, and a box of bullets can weigh much more than a rifle.

The other cadres were uncomfortable, and Li Ziyuan was also uncomfortable. Although the crooked handle machine gun is a light machine gun, it weighs more than 20 catties. Coupled with the unique appearance, it is not a comfortable thing to carry. But Li Ziyuan didn't say anything, just carried the machine gun and ran at the front of the line. The cadres and soldiers in the back looked at Li Ziyuan who was running in front, gritting their teeth and persevering no matter how tired they were.

After all, the rifles on their bodies, even with a hundred rounds of ammunition, were much lighter than the crooked handles on Li Ziyuan's body. Li Ziyuan can insist, and they have nothing to say. But these five kilometers are heavily armed off-road, plus they are all mountain roads. Even if the big guys are all strong farmers, they are all tired and panting like cattle after running for five kilometers.

By the time Li Ziyuan, who was about five kilometers away, shouted to stop, all the people were almost paralyzed. Looking at the tired warriors lying on the ground, although they were also constantly panting. But I knew this lesson in my heart, and the idea of cherishing weapons had formed a concept in the minds of all soldiers.

After calming down, Li Ziyuan didn't wait for everyone to rest and immediately shouted after gathering: "Look at your appearance, a five-kilometer armed cross-country is tired like this." If you run for dozens of miles, you still have to lie down? Our Eighth Route Army has no railways to use, and no cars to use. ”

"When you march and fight, you rely on these legs, how can you do it if you can't run? There are also little devils who not only have cars to use when necessary, but also have their own marching ability is quite strong, what if you can't outrun the devils when the time comes? Starting tomorrow, a five-kilometer armed off-road in the morning and evening. If anyone can't run, they will become a cook instead. ”

"In the morning, I learned about dismantling and maintaining firearms, and in the afternoon I learned tactical training. I promised my superiors to bring out an iron-clad army, so I must do a good job. And these things are all on the battlefield, used to save your life, if you don't want to learn, put down the gun and leave. ”

After Li Ziyuan said this, he looked at all the cadres and soldiers. Under his knife-like gaze, none of the cadres and soldiers stood up and said that I was not doing it. just silently looked at Li Ziyuan, who was still carrying the crooked handle in front of him and standing straight in a standard military posture.

Seeing that no one spoke, Li Ziyuan glanced at everyone, and then asked loudly: "Tell me if you are willing to accept this intensity of training." I'm a person who prefers direct people, and if you can accept it, tell me out loud now. ”

"I'd rather you die on the training ground than die on the battlefield. If you really can't accept it, I can let you go and promise not to tell anyone that you are a deserter. Now tell me if you can do it. ”

Everyone is young, and they all have a competitive mind. Although Li Ziyuan promised not to tell others that those who chose to quit were deserters, if he quit in front of so many people, even if he didn't say it, he would undoubtedly be considered a deserter. So after Li Ziyuan asked, all the cadres and soldiers loudly told him that he was willing.

Although everyone shouted loudly, Li Ziyuan was obviously not satisfied: "What happened to the five kilometers just now, which emptied your stomachs?" The shouting voice is not messy, but it is so quiet. As I said, I want you to tell me out loud whether you want to or not. I can't hear your mosquito call. ”

After Li Ziyuan finished speaking, all the fighters agreed, as if shouting with all their strength, once again expressing their willingness to accept Li Ziyuan's training. Looking at the soldiers whose faces were flushed because of their hoarse shouting, Li Ziyuan nodded with satisfaction. Carrying the crooked handle that he had not put down, he took the lead back to the camp.
