Chapter V: Regularization of the Armed Forces
After the chariot bombardment, the cavalry immediately fired and slashed the performance. Wang Yaowu led the way and clapped his hands and cheered. I rode someone else's horse when I came, so I can't thank you now? However, it is really a pleasing thing to watch these big men gallop back and forth on war horses. The cavalry of the 500th Army didn't look very good, and when they pulled it to the training ground, their strength was really not to be underestimated, and this slap was really appreciative.
After the infantry fired, Gao Quan took the initiative to invite several generals from friendly forces to show their skills.
Everyone is a soldier, how can anyone not like to shoot? Although these members of the 74th Army are now high-powered, except for Yu Chengwan, who was a political cadre in the early days, the rest of them were all in the front-line troops after graduating from the military academy, and they rose step by step from the trainee platoon commander to the combat exploits! Who has not participated in the battle? Who hasn't been wounded on the battlefield? Zhang Lingfu's right leg is still lame!
A rifle of a hundred meters, a pistol of fifty meters. Gao Quan and Wang Yaowu present were the highest-level, and of course these two came first. The pistol used for target shooting is not the Browning self-defense pistol that the generals wear, but a real battlefield gun, the German-made Mauser automatic pistol, that is, the pot-bellied box gun.
Of course, Gao Quan's shooting level is not to be said, and it is not particularly difficult for him to play a full ring. However, if a military commander doubles as a sharpshooter, it will inevitably make people vigilant, and Gao Quan deliberately missed a few shots when shooting. Wang Yaowu carefully checked the guns and ammunition, and every shot was focused and serious. This is the quality of a real soldier, as soon as you get a gun, you have to go all out!
After the shot, as soon as the target was reported, the ten bullets hit 85 rings high, and Wang Yaowu 91 rings, and the audience immediately applauded. The pistol can score this result, which is already considered a good marksmanship!
"Brother Zuomin, good marksmanship!" Gao Quan gave Wang Yaowu a thumbs up.
"It's up to me." When Wang Yaowu said these modest words, there was inevitably a hint of arrogance on his face. In terms of marksmanship, it is the result of years of hard training and countless bloody battles on the battlefield, in this regard, Wang Yaowu is completely proud.
Then the generals of the 74th Army showed their hands one by one, and the commanders of the 500th Army also accompanied them to shoot the target. What Gao Quan didn't expect was that Yu Chengwan's marksmanship was also good. Originally, in his impression, this senior of the first phase of Huangpu, who was engaged in political work in his early years and joined the combat unit halfway, should have very average marksmanship, who knew that people had ten bullets and hit an eighty-nine ring, which was several rings more than Gao Quandu.
Zhang Lingfu came back to the limelight in this shooting performance, and this beautiful man with bad legs and feet unexpectedly hit a full ring, a hundred rings! After the target reporter reported the results, the audience applauded! This is already the best result, and it couldn't be better! What ten bullets drilled through a bullet hole, that's a legend, it's a story! With Gao Quan's shooting level, he tried many times, and he had never hit such a target.
Needless to say, the worst results of the 500 Army were Deputy Army Commander Xie and Secretary Wu. The two men had been in civilian work for too long in the early days, and even now that they have joined the combat army, they have little time to practice marksmanship. The daily work of the military department has taken up all the time of these two, where do they have the heart to practice guns?
The lively military exercise was over, and when it was time to leave, Wang Yaowu took Gao Quan's hand and was reluctant, "Admonish, I will also conduct a drill in ten days, and you must come to see it when the time comes." You and I hit it off at first sight, so let's have more contact in the future. We should also learn more from each other and exchange ideas between our two militaries. ”
"It must be certain, there will be more places to ask Brother Zuomin for advice in the future, Brother Zuomin should not be disgusted with the advice." can have a good relationship with Wang Yaowu, Gao Quan just can't ask for it. "Since these horses are good for Brother Zuomin and your brothers, let's give them to your brothers! Please don't be stingy. "These people are almost a few years old, they are all older than Gao Quan, and it is not a loss to call them brothers.
Gao Quan led the generals of the 500th Army and sent Wang Yaowu and his party to the outside of the camp gate, and after the two sides shook hands and saluted, the people of the 74th Army got on the car and rode back to their own army. Gao Quan didn't lead his men back to the camp until he couldn't see anyone.
In this exercise, many individuals and collectives with outstanding performance emerged in the troops, and Gao Quan specially commended them. He wanted to take this opportunity to set off an upsurge of large-scale military training in the whole army.
In particular, the 500 Brigade and the Independent Brigade have the most problems in these two units; from regiment commanders to soldiers, many people have the habit of forming gangs, forming small groups, and setting up small hills, but they do not attract attention in ordinary times; after meeting with the generals of the 74 th Army this time, Gao Quan immediately felt the urgency of regularizing the troops. Without regularization, no matter how strong an army's combat effectiveness is, it will not be able to get on the stage after all!
found Qian Sixi and Zhang Erxiao and told them their thoughts. These two are both veterans of the 500 Army, and they are Gao Quan's right-hand men, so if they have anything to say, they can directly talk to these two people.
"You two brigades were not allowed to participate in this exercise, do you two know why? That's because I'm not at ease with your troops! I'm afraid that in the course of the exercise, I will make a mess and lose the face of our 500th army! "There is no need to hide these two people, and there is no need to say any kind words," I met with several generals of the 74th Army today, and I remembered that there is still a big gap between our troops and the regular army. If the 500 Army wants to improve its quality, it must be regularized! ”
"So where are you going to start?" The two of them had no opinion on Gao Quan's words, and the two of them also knew about the army's ** disease, but they couldn't think of any good ways to improve it. Gao Quan mentioned this stubble today, and Qian Sixi began to ask for details. Speaking of which, the biggest stubborn problem of the two brigades is their respective two regiment commanders, and it is impossible to withdraw them, if Gao Quan has a way to make those few people like Liu Xing and Wang Jiantang, of course Qian Sixi and Zhang Erxiao welcome it.
"Well, I plan to let Secretary Wu go to the two of you to carry out ideological education work, and Secretary Wu is the most suitable person to do this work. When the time comes, the two of you must cooperate with Secretary Wu, and you are not allowed to make any small moves! Of course, if there is anything wrong with the secretary, you can also negotiate with Wu Guangxing, and if you really can't do it, you can come to me! ”
Maybe it's really a good way to use Wu Guangxing to deal with Huang Sanpao and Jin Feilong, Qian Sixi and Zhang Erxiao all laughed and shouted hello after hearing this, so this matter was settled.
After explaining it clearly to the two commanders of the troops concerned, Gao Quan told Wu Guangxing about it. As Gao Quan expected, Secretary Wu was overjoyed when he heard it.
