Chapter 55: Shot while lying down
The main task of the Zhedong Armed Forces Brigade at the present stage is to infiltrate the rural areas of eastern Zhejiang to carry out the construction of base areas, and there are few direct military strikes, with propaganda warfare, psychological warfare, and force deterrence as the main forms of operations. All the members of the Armed Forces Brigade have undergone strict military training, have a sense of team operations and a clear operational goal, understand the use and daily maintenance of basic weapons, and have a certain sense of combat and organizational ability.
Su Xiaoxuan can only be said to be basically satisfied with these team members, and her goal is to cultivate future members of the special combat team from these team members. Therefore, when Longshanguan first saw the scale, she took the backbone members selected by various martial arts teams to train here every day.
In a house in the backyard of Yongsan Temple, a blackboard hangs on the wall, and on the blackboard hangs a topographical map of the mountain, with stones, trees, and several dotted lines depicting the location of the sniper's ambush. More than a dozen soldiers sat below, and these soldiers were all military backbones selected by various martial arts teams.
The main activity areas of the Zhedong Martial Arts Brigade are mainly coastal hilly areas and small population areas, and Su Xiaoxuan first strengthened the intelligence gathering ability of the backbone members, followed by camouflage training and latent observation training, and finally weapon use and melee training.
Su Xiaoxuan stood in front of the blackboard and talked eloquently, "The work you are engaged in is called a hunter in Europe. As a hunter, ambush your prey. The first is to observe, to observe a group of enemies, and to pick out the most important individuals or links from them, which is the most basic quality of being a hunter. ”
After finishing speaking, Su Xiaoxuan turned around and put away the topographic map of the mountain, and re-hung three new maps on the blackboard, which were all color pictures of Manchu civil and military officials.
"If you see these Manchu officials through binoculars when you are in ambush." Su Xiaoxuan pointed to the figures on the three wall charts, "Please tell me, which one do you choose as the preferred shooting target?" What is the rationale? ”
The warriors stared at the figure on the wall chart and began to think. Saturday Yi raised his hand and stood up, "I choose the Qing demon on the side of the wall chart in the middle." He wears a second-grade top, with a pair of dazzling feathers on the back of his head, and among the three pictures, his official is the largest. ”
Su Xiaoxuan nodded approvingly and asked him to sit down. Saturday Yi used to be a subordinate of Zhou Xiuying of the Little Knife Society, and he had mixed up in Shanghai, so he could be regarded as a little knowledgeable.
The members of the Zhedong Martial Arts Brigade are mainly the backbone of the first battalion, and many talents have also been selected from other army units, coast guards, and training camps, including Zhou Xiuying's old subordinates when she was in the Little Knife Club.
Su Xiaoxuan believes that rural children are quite familiar with the rural environment, and their thinking has been solidified, so it is difficult for them to cultivate a keen sense of observation of the surrounding environment through training, so the special combat team members in her mind must be urban children, children of fishermen, or former gang members who have corrected their bad habits.
"If we see that the target is all wearing the same outfit, then we have to judge carefully, who seems to be more important? Who's in the top position? Who has more followers behind them? After careful observation and judgment, the target was chosen, and all that remained was to gently pull the trigger and send him a bullet. ”
Seeing that the soldiers all understood what they meant, Su Xiaoxuan nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, let's go back and have a good rest, go up the mountain tonight, and continue the sniper drill." ”
The patriarch's hall is separated from the newly built houses in the backyard only by a thick wall, which has now been repaired with a one-meter-thick mezzanine.
Su Xiaoxuan walked into one of the rooms, and she entered the mezzanine of the wall from the small door. Through the ladder, Su Xiaoxuan went up to the second floor of the Patriarch's Palace.
Seeing Su Xiaoxuan coming up, Sun Meihua immediately got up and reported, "Captain, the battalion headquarters has just sent a notice asking us to seriously organize and study the "Revival Party Manifesto", saying that all personnel of the Zhedong Martial Arts Brigade must write out their ideological understanding. ”
"Inform all armed engineering teams and explain to them that the armed engineering teams are behind enemy lines, and they are divided into three parts military and seven parts political, and although military struggle is important, political work must also be stepped up." Although Su Xiaoxuan is a mercenary, she attaches great importance to the big killer of political and ideological work. It's just that her main focus now is on the training of military backbones, and Su Xiaoxuan desperately hopes to go to Shen Si to come back as soon as possible.
Shen Si is the political commissar of the Wugong Brigade, and he went to Hangzhou two days ago to discuss further cooperation with Hu Xueyan.
Sun Meihua took out a pen, wrote down all Su Xiaoxuan's words, and then handed the document record sheet to Su Xiaoxuan for signing.
Su Xiaoxuan asked while signing, "Is there any news from the political commissar?" ”
"The political commissar sent a message from Hangzhou, and everything is normal."
"What else?"
Sun Meihua looked at the phone registration form, "You Qibing made a call from the salt warehouse base. ”
"What did my brother say?" Su Xiaoxuan raised his eyebrows, this guy doesn't go to bubble girls, he calls the old lady every day, it's really greasy!
"He said that he will go to Taiwan in two days, I hope you take care of yourself!"
You Qibing is Su Xiaoxuan's cousin, graduated from a second-rate university in Japan, loves to study all kinds of light and heavy weapons and the history of modern warfare, and his greatest wish is to become a pilot.
Su Xiaoxuan thought to himself, it is said that the Executive Committee has ordered two Junior Sect Six in the original time and space, this damn Royal Sister Control will probably be able to make her wish come true.
On the West Lake in Hangzhou, on the shore of the willow waves outside the Qingbo Gate, Hu Xueyan walked with his hands behind his back and watched the scenery in the lake.
Hu Xueyan seems to be leisurely on the outside, but he is not calm in his heart. Recently, Hu Xueyan has been busy integrating the money and grain masters of various prefectures and counties and arranging the sale of bonds. Although he had the support of He Guiqing, the governor of Zhejiang, and others, He Guiqing could not come to the front after all. Hu Xueyan encountered a lot of shirks, and the finalized bond sales quota was less than 10%.
Hu Xueyan was not discouraged, and he had a considerable commission on the sale of bonds. Hu Xueyan was holding back his strength to sell out the four million bonds. In the morning, I suddenly received an invitation letter asking him to visit the lake in the afternoon. According to the hidden words in the letter, Hu Xueyan knew that it was a message from the Ming army.
A flat boat rowed from the lake, and on the flat boat, a person beckoned to Hu Xueyan, "Brother Xueyan, don't come unharmed!" ”
"Master Shen, don't come unharmed!"
Shen Si, as the deputy instructor of the first battalion, had a one-sided friendship with Hu Xueyan in Zhenhai City, and Hu Xueyan immediately recognized him.
After getting on the boat, the two chatted a few words. Hu Xueyan put on a look of impatience and righteousness, "Lord Shen, the bond sales have just begun, if Daming is in a hurry to withdraw the silver taels now, my Fukang Money Village does not have so much silver deposits, so I can only wait for two days, and I will borrow from various money banks." ”
Shen Si smiled, "Don't worry, I, the Huaxia Renaissance Party, have been operating overseas for many years, and I still have a little bit of financial resources, so I won't be in a hurry to wait for the rice to go to the pot." ”
The boat leaves the shore and rows deep into the middle of the lake.
Hu Xueyan breathed a sigh of relief, "Four million bonds are not a lot, and sooner or later they will definitely be sold, but it will take time." There is just news that Lin Shenhe, the deputy general of the Jiaxing Association, will lead troops to Hangzhou within two or three days. ”
He secretly glanced at Shen Si, "Hangzhou has few soldiers, and Governor He is uneasy. ”
Although He Guiqing had a little relationship with the Ming army, the shadow of Huang Zonghan's death had been pressing on his heart, and He Guiqing was afraid that the Ming army would also give him a slap.
The Eight Banners of the Hangzhou garrison are the waste of the waste, the Zhapu Water Division Battalion was wiped out by the Ming army, and all He Guiqing could think of was the soldiers and horses of the Shenhe River in Xielin in Jiaxing.
After the extermination of the Little Knife Society, Lin Shenhe refused to fight the Taiping Army under the pretext that his lungs were injured. The Manchu Qing had no choice but to promote him to be the deputy general of the Zhejiang Jiaxing Association, and let him recuperate in Jiaxing while training soldiers.
Lin Shenhe came to Zhejiang almost at the same time as He Guiqing, he used the excuse that the cannonball injured his lungs, and he didn't want to deal with He Guiqing, but he couldn't help the Qing court and Zhejiang to work together, Lin Shenhe had to agree to take troops to Hangzhou to recuperate.
Whether it was the foreign guns or the victorious army, Hu Xueyan was worried that the sale of bonds would have twists and turns.
"Don't worry, I'm here for this." Shen Si knew Hu Xueyan's concerns, and he said with a smile, "Wu Jianzhang and Lin Shenhe have our people around them. ”
Hu Xueyan's face was as if nothing had happened, but he couldn't help but be a little shocked in his heart, Lin Shenhe hadn't agreed to send troops yet, and the Ming army had already reacted.
Shen Si took out a letter from his arms, "This is a letter from Master Liu next to Wu Jianzhang. ”
"What?!"
Hu Xueyan was startled and hurriedly took the letter.
Shen Si stretched out his hand into the lake and scooped the water briskly, "Lin Shenhe's foreign guns are also provided by us, many foreign companies in Shanghai have our shares, and we are ready to partner with Wu Jianzhang and He Guiqing to do a big business." ”
At this moment, a crisp gunshot suddenly remembered on the lake. Hu Xueyan hurriedly looked up and saw a person lying in a pool of blood on the shore of the lake.
Next to the dead ghost, a guy screamed, "Kill~"
There was another crisp gunshot, and the guy fell to the ground.
"Don't panic, these are all stalking guys." Shen Si patted Hu Xueyan's arm lightly, "Let's kill a few little minions first to scare their masters." ”
After going back, Hu Xueyan immediately found He Guiqing and Wang Youling.
"Lord Wu Jianzhang is going to cooperate with me in Zhejiang to open a ticket number and dart game?" He Guiqing was puzzled, "Xueyan, where did you get the news?" ”
"The news is true, this is a letter from Master Liu, who is next to Lord Lin Shenhe, to me." Hu Xueyan was full of spring breeze and handed over the letter, "Because the eastern part of Zhejiang is not quiet, the goods transported to Shanghai are seriously blocked, so Yiren found Lord Wu and said that he was willing to invest and cooperate in the establishment of a foreign gun team and a ticket number dart bureau to ensure the smooth logistics of Shanghai and Zhejiang." ”
Master Liu is Lin Shenhe's most intimate master, He Guiqing hurriedly took the letter and read it carefully.
Wang Youling looked at the letter in He Guiqing's hand, "It's a good thing, it's just that Yiren has always had bad intentions. ”
"The letter said that Lord Wu Jianzhang politely declined the request of the Yiren, and Wu Jianzhang said that this is the internal affairs of China, and he wants to promote Zhejiang and Shanghai to join forces to ensure the safety of one party." After He Guiqing read it, he immediately handed the letter to Wang Youling.
"Master Liu, this is looking for Xueyan to throw stones and ask for directions." Wang Youling finished reading the letter and smiled, "Lin Shenhe is Wu Jianzhang's favorite general, as long as Zhongcheng responds to this proposal, no matter how serious Lin Shenhe's lung injury is, he will also raise troops to the south." ”
He Guiqing looked at Hu Xueyan, "Brother Xueyan, what do you think?" ”
"The logistics are smooth, and the gold is ten thousand taels!" Hu Xueyan said with a smile, "Our Zhejiang Province has sufficient food and salary, Shanghai can provide foreign guns and artillery, Lin Shenhe can help from the Chinese military, if Zhejiang and Shanghai can join forces, whether it is for Yungong, Xuegong, or for our Zhejiang Province, it is definitely a great thing." ”
The Eastern Zhejiang Armed Forces wanted to induce He Guiqing to cooperate with Wu Jianzhang to open a ticket number dart bureau together, in order to let the Ming army have a legal logistics channel in eastern Zhejiang, ensure the flow of bulk capital of the Ming army, and promote the economic development of the rural base areas.
Two days later, more than 20 sand boats loaded with the soldiers of the Jiaxing Association came to the city of Hangzhou along the canal.
"Arrived in Hangzhou?"
Lin Shenhe was lying on the recliner at the bow of the boat, and there was a row of Goshha standing beside him.
Seeing the tall Hangzhou city wall in front of him, Lin Shenhe's mouth was crooked, his cheeks twitched, and he scolded secretly in his heart, this executive committee is really unreliable, kill chickens to show monkeys, you have to take me, and let me have to lie down and get shot, which bastard came up with the idea.
"Military Gate!" The garrison of the Jiaxing battalion was full of people, and he ran to the bow of the boat in a hurry, "Please ask the military gate, it's almost time to reach the Wulin Gate~"
At this moment, a soft "bang" sound was heard, and the guard's head suddenly had a hole, and blood splashed all at once, and he shook twice and fell to the deck.
Goshha was so frightened that he dodged away when a mortar shell landed on the surface of the river with a loud bang and splashed several meters high.
The soldiers on the ship suddenly panicked, and at this time, someone shouted, "Quick, protect Lord Xietai, protect Lord Xietai." ”
At some point, a bullet flew in, and it just grazed Lin Shenhe's buttocks. Lin Shenhe lay sideways on the recliner, his hands covering his bleeding buttocks.
