The little warriors of the 560 International Column
Lin Fuxing tightened the armed belt on his body, although he didn't have a gun pinned to it, it still made him feel safer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The land on which he is about to set foot is completely unfamiliar, and the places that Lin Fuxing, who has just turned eighteen, have traveled are very limited. Born in Fujian, the Qing Dynasty, he later immigrated with his parents to Singapore, where he lived for many years. Gradually, Lin Fuxing became very fond of the navy, and he used his only pocket money to buy those military magazines, and even finally came to Pontianak alone despite his family's opposition and enrolled in the Borneo Maritime School in Pontianak.
After more than a year of study, as Lin Fuxing expected, the Navy has indeed conducted a selection here, and the best batch of cadets will be able to directly enter the Navy to serve as sailors. However, Lin Fuxing was nervous, played abnormally in the assessment, and missed his sailor career with a score of three places in the navy admission line, which made Lin Fuxing extremely distressed.
It stands to reason that in today's Datang environment, engaging in shipping, becoming a seafarer, and running trade routes is a job with a very good income. Datang shipping is in high demand, and seafarers are in short supply, especially on new-style ships, which need more seafarers with more complex knowledge, rather than the old-style sailors who can untie ropes and tie knots alone. If Lin Fuxing becomes a sailor on a merchant ship, it is also a very promising job.
However, Lin Fuxing was not satisfied, and he still hoped to become a naval sailor. At this time, an unexpected event gave him a new opportunity. Lin Fuxing was recruited into the National Revolution soon after coming to Pontianak because of his outstanding performance and passing the ideological test. Become a member of the National Youth League. This time. The National Youth League launched an activity in various places. Aspiring youths were recruited into the International Column, a military organization that supported the revolution of the German Revolution.
The members of the International Column were not only Tang people, but also members of the National Revolution from various countries, who were able to choose to join the International Column, and then, after some training, participated in the internationalist revolution in Germany. Lin Fuxing was not interested in helping the Germans establish an internationalist regime, but the organization gave some preferential conditions, one of which was that comrades who participated in the international column. In the future, relatively large concessions will be given in the areas of further education, work, and military service. When Lin Fuxing learned about this, he couldn't help but rejoice. If he can resubmit his application to join the Navy, and then have the qualifications of this international column, then joining the Navy will not be so difficult.
Therefore, Lin Fuxing volunteered to sign up and then rushed to Germany with other similar volunteers. In fact, Lin Fuxing had hardly ever held a gun before this, although he and his companions had already conducted a forty-day military training before leaving, but Lin Fuxing was still very uncertain, and his gun was not accurate. And there are some clumsy ones, often disliked by instructors.
Lin Fuxing was on a Datang merchant ship. They also went to Germany as ordinary seamen. Lin Fuxing stood on the deck, the contours of the land were becoming clearer, and the steamer of more than 10,000 tons was about to sail into the estuary and dock in Hamburg.
A young man about Lin Fuxing's age came over and said to him, "It's finally here." ”
Lin Fuxing nodded and said, "Ah Zhong, are you afraid?" ”
Cai Zhong shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid, those white skins in Spain were also beaten by the Tang Army in Manila." ”
Cai Zhong is the young man who lost his relatives in the bombardment of Manila, after which he fell into a period of confusion and hatred for Datang. But after being exposed to more ideas about internationalism, he gradually accepted and became a member of the National Youth League. Unlike the other Sectarian Youth League, the Youth League of Paeknam's time gradually developed into a middle school where everyone would join and had no more influence on people's lives. The National Youth League of the Tang Revolution is another matter, first of all, there are really only young people in age, composed of young people aged 16-30. The members of the National Youth League are actually also members of the Datang Revolutionary Party, more precisely, youth party members.
Cai Zhong is embarking on a path of becoming more and more political fanatics, and his personal experience and understanding of the concept of internationalism have made him begin to have a strong sense of mission, hoping to blow the wind of internationalism all over the land, and he also believes that only by realizing the unity of internationalism can we avoid the tragedy of the Spaniards exploiting the Chinese in Manila and his relatives being affected by the war.
Lin Fuxing met Cai Zhong in the training camp, and both of them spoke Hokkien and were about the same height, and they soon became friends. Lin Fuxing said worriedly: "The Tang Army can beat the European army, but we are not the Tang Army, we are just some raw melons and eggs who have just picked up guns, and the Prussian Army is the strongest army in Europe." ”
Cai Zhong pushed Lin Fuxing: "Do you still want to be your navy, how can you say frustrating words." ”
Lin Fuxing was a little embarrassed and said: "When a sailor doesn't need to hold a gun, he fights in the rain of bullets, the navy is a gentleman's service." ”
Cai Zhong snorted and said, "Doesn't the navy have to risk being shelled?" ”
Lin Fuxing said: "The artillery of our Datang Navy has a long range and fast speed, and it is completely out of reach of enemy ships to attack, so there is no need to be afraid of being hit." ”
"You're really unproductive, let me tell you, whether it's the navy or the army, if you want to win, you have to have courage. If you're really so cowardly, I don't have to think about what to do with the navy, the navy people will still invite you out after they find out. ”
Lin Fuxing stiffened his neck and said, "Who said I was a coward, I just had some reasonable worries." ”
Cai Zhong said lightly: "The matter of fighting a war must be more and more proficient in fighting, no one is born to kill seven in and seven out like Zhao Zilong on the battlefield." What's more, the entire German Corps has been transplanted, and our international column actually has the size of a whole brigade, and it is even better than the Prussians and Austrians in terms of weapons and equipment, so what is there to be afraid of. ”
Lin Fuxing's eyes were firmer, and he said: "You are right, this battle must be fought well, and an internationalist Germany must be played, and there will be stories for future generations to show in the future." I want to join the navy's fleet as soon as possible. ”
Cai Zhong joked: "Even if you become a navy, you may not be able to get on the ship." ”
Lin Fuxing clenched his fists: "I will definitely be able to get on the ship!" (To be continued.) )
