It was still dark, and it was more night than early in the morning.

On the empty beach range, only a whistle was heard, and the people who had been standing in line on the beach rushed to the foxhole.

In their place were some parts of guns that had been broken up into seven or eight parts, the darkest hour before dawn, and as soon as they touched the parts in front of them, they understood the commander's intentions.

The quickest responders had begun assembling their guns at a dizzying pace, and the others had begun to assemble the parts of the Mashiro tablets and assemble them into guns.

Watching the movements of these people, Rudolph looked down again at the stopwatch in his hand and had reached the last ten counts: now enter the countdown! He said, "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!" Shoot!

Fifty meters away in the night, on the sea surface, one by one strung up by ropes floating targets rolling with the waves, Tanhu Island is not big, there is only a 50-meter shooting range, after the fixed target shooting training there, they need to train at the sea shooting range, marksmanship has always been fed with bullets, and here is no exception.

Compared to the Manchu barracks, which could not shoot dozens of shots a year, here they need to shoot at least 20 shots a day with a rifle, and if the shooting score is passable, they have to land on their hands and feet, stand tall and let the instructor smoke, in addition to bullet feeding, sticks are also an incentive.

At this time, the sound of gunfire in the distance broke this silence, and the seemingly somewhat scattered gunshots were connected, so close that people were breathless, Chen Moran, who was standing behind, listened to the deafening gunshots, and looked at the soldiers who kept shooting at the target with pistols, and only felt a burst of excitement.

Men advocate violence and weapons in their bones, and Chen Moran is no exception.

Since yesterday's dinner in the camp, a selection began with fighting, as the head of the instructor Zhang Renkui taught these people the skills of fighting, and later Chen Moran found the professional technical teaching materials of the army infantry reconnaissance detachment, they practiced the fighting skills of the scouts in it, and further improved their fighting skills.

After four hours of fist-to-flesh fighting, fifty people were finally singled out, and in the end, fifteen more were screened out of these fifty people.

The pistol fires 32 rounds of ammunition per person, just to select the person with the best marksmanship.

"No. 1 is all in the middle school, 195 rings, and No. 2 is all in the middle school! 212 ring ......"

At the end of the shooting, with the light signal on the sea, the sound of target reporting sounded, but Chen Moran, who had not shown any smile, squeezed out some smiles, the results were not bad, they used to use revolver training, and it was not until two weeks ago that they switched to NC pistol training.

"Rifle shooting!"

When the fifty soldiers began to assemble the rifles, Rudolph, who was standing next to Chen Moran, noticed Chen Moran's smile.

"Mr. Chen, now I can assure you that none of your 564 soldiers are not all of China, no! It is not an easy task to select fifteen of the best soldiers in all of Asia, and even in the world! ”

"No!"

Chen Moran shook his head.

"I just need the best fifteen people! After these fifteen people are chosen, I will take them away, and as for the others, you continue to train. ”

The reason why he has put that incident until now, in addition to the reason for waiting for a gun, is that after they finish their training, they can select the best people, and then let them protect their daughter-in-law to go to Mexico, in the past two months, he has been using various channels to understand Mexico, especially the environment, where the environment is far worse than he imagined, to be precise, the security environment.

Although he sent these fifteen "fierce soldiers" with submachine guns to protect his daughter-in-law, he was still a little uneasy, but at least it was safer than her own.

"Rudolph, when will they go to war?"

"Anytime!"

Rudolph affirmatively said that a week ago, they had completed their last blasting drill, and were now ready to go into battle.

"Christmas is two days away, so let's wait for Christmas! Now that you've chosen your goals, let them draw up their own battle plans, and remember, if the instructors participate in the battle plan, your bonuses will be forfeited! ”

Chen Moran's expression was serious and serious, in addition to normal training, all kinds of squad tactics were also within the scope of their learning, to deal with the pirates who were only more than a hundred people, if they couldn't formulate a battle plan by themselves, I am afraid it would be unreasonable.

"As you wish! Mr. Chen! ”

Rudolph was confident in his students, who were far better than his colleagues in the Swiss Mountain Forces, only after he had trained them himself.

If they hadn't been trained, they wouldn't have been able to believe that there was so much power in these small bodies, and the brutal training not only supported them, but also showed superhuman imagination of tenacity, Rudolph even believed that these people could withstand more brutal training, but as for how to be more cruel, I'm afraid they need to think about it themselves, this is close to the existence of hell, if it is more cruel, maybe there will only be hell.

Gently pulled the trigger, and the shoulder was beaten, although he couldn't see how many rings he hit, Dong Haotian believed that at least the eight rings were no problem, and when he pulled the bolt again, the five bullets in the magazine had been completed, the gun was empty, and the rifle shooting was over.

Whistled at Xu Zhiyuan beside him, Dong Haotian was full of pride, the two fought for nearly an hour last night without winning or losing, and if it wasn't for a tie, I'm afraid the two would have to fight, and now Dong Haotian's face is still proud, although the two are not in a team, or Dong Haotian also knows that there is still a little gap between Xu Zhiyuan's marksmanship and him.

"Don't be complacent, I played better than usual today! It's the same with fighting! ”

Xu Zhiyuan's expression was very cold, while the others were anxiously waiting for the results, he wiped the gun there, the gun was not clean, the bolt was dusty, and once it was found, it was flogged twenty, or twenty military sticks.

Just as the so-called military orders are like a mountain, the hierarchy in the army is strict, and the military regulations cannot be offended, and several of the 564 people who have survived on this "Yama Island" to this day have not suffered hundreds of military sticks in these 120 days.

There is no wrongs on Yama Island, there are only mistakes! And the military stick is what really makes men pay for their mistakes. One person made a mistake, and the collective was flogged, and after receiving nearly 200 military sticks before and after, and the brothers in the injured squad followed by thousands of military sticks, Xu Zhiyuan had already engraved those military regulations into his bones, even after firing thousands of bullets, his rifle chamber was as bright as a mirror, and the bolt was reflected, relying on this consciousness.

"No. 49 and 81 rings!"

This achievement made Dong Haotian proud, he looked at Xu Zhiyuan beside him, but when he wanted to say something, he didn't hear the sound of the target, just looked at the light signal that added long and short, but his face was red, 83 rings!

"I said it all, I played better than usual today! Punches are, guns are too! ”

The one-meter-three-long rifle was carried on his shoulder, but Xu Zhiyuan jumped out of the bunker. Everything was simple next, assemble, line, disband, return to the team, and continue training, while Xu Zhiyuan jumped on the small wooden boat after handing over the rifle and continued his "happy hour".

On the carriage, Chen Moran looked at the table in his hand, but it was difficult to choose, 50 people can be said to have their own strengths, endurance, fighting, and shooting can be said to have their own strengths, just as Rudolph said, it is indeed difficult to choose the fifteen best.

Like a primary school student doing a connection, Chen Moran began to draw from the boat, rowing from the boat to the shore, and then drawing back to the concession, rowing from early morning to morning, still unable to choose a reason, some endurance and fighting are good, but shooting is average, and some are good at shooting and fighting, but endurance is average. Of course, the people here are usually among the fifty people, but they are all top ten heroes outside.

"It's hard!"

Staring at this list, Chen Moran's head wrinkled.

"Forget it! Just twenty of them! ”

Chen Moran, who couldn't choose a reason for a few hours, casually drew a circle in the list of the more than 20 that he had selected, and if he couldn't choose fifteen, he would choose twenty.

Chen Moran, who finally solved a problem, still did not have the ease of solving the problem on his face, the selection is good, the submachine gun will be made soon, twenty people with fifty submachine guns and fifty pistols may be able to give Ji Li the best protection, but he always can't let go in his heart.

After the carriage stopped in front of the industrial company building, Chen Moran got out of the car and went straight up the stairs, although he said that he had not returned overnight, but there was no need to go home now, as long as he received a call from him saying that he would not go home, Ji Li would often go to Catherine.

As soon as the front foot entered the office, Yu Hongyu, Chen Moran's secretary on the back foot, followed in with a briefcase-style envelope.

"Chairman, mail from Jackson Law Firm in London!"

Putting the envelope in front of Chen Moran, Yu Hongyu withdrew, this is exactly the reason why Chen Moran likes this secretary from the academy, he won't waste time with anything, just do his job.

Although it was only the beginning of the 20th century, the advanced mail delivery in Europe was beyond Chen Moran's imagination, and half a month ago, the Jackson Law Firm, which was in charge of handling the company's procedures, sent a telegram saying that it had completed the business licenses and related procedures of the Petroleos of England and Mexico, and now these procedures have arrived in front of Chen Moran.

After Chen Moran folded the envelope that was constantly switching between the train and the cruise ship, in just sixteen days, that is, when he arrived in Shanghai from London, there was a slight discoloration between his eyebrows, and in the past few days, almost everything was urging him and Ji Li to part.

"Petroleos de England and Mexico"

After folding the letter, the name on the business license only made Chen Moran sigh, the owner of the company is Ji Li? Stirling, an Englishman of aristocratic ancestry, although she was the owner of the Anglo-Mexican Oil Company, another document shows that her husband was the investor of the company, and as the investor he owned all the company's assets.

"O skins of the British Empire!"

The information revealed behind this thin piece of paper still made Chen Moran smile helplessly, if China is like Britain, what do you have to do with Ji Li...... I don't regret marrying her, what do you really don't want to face? I'm afraid it's just a delicate girl of only nineteen years old to go to the wild land of Mexico.

"Catherine ......"

When the voice came, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Yu Hongyu, who was following her, obviously failed to stop her.

"Chairman, I'm ......"

Chen Moran, who raised his head, said something after seeing Catherine.

"Ziji, you go out! Bring the door shut! ”

When the door closed again, looking at the angry Catherine, Chen Moran stuffed the documents into the folder.

Glaring at Chen Moran, Catherine couldn't wait to throw the man in front of her from this building, he actually coaxed his only sister to Mexico.

"Cripple! I need an explanation! ”

"My leg is not lame now!"

Chen Moran smiled at his "sister" who was on the verge of going berserk, and couldn't help but make a joke.

"Do you remember when I was lame?"

"You ......"

His giggle only made Catherine angry, but when she was reminded like this, her face turned red again, and the original question seemed to have lost her confidence.

"Chen Moran, I need you to give me a reasonable explanation! Why, why did you let Ji Li go to Mexico, you have only been married for two months! ”

Catherine still has that glamorous appearance, unlike Gilly's restrained beauty, Catherine's beauty is enchanting and blooming, her skin glows with a healthy glow, her blue eyes shine with wisdom, and another elusive brilliance that is both charming and mysterious. Her features are well-proportioned, with a well-defined chin, high cheekbones, and a peugeot forehead that form a flawless whole.

In the past, she always had a somewhat bewitching smile on her face, perhaps this was the relationship that her "viscountess" had been raised since childhood, but now she was as cold as ice, Chen Moran could fully imagine Catherine's anger at this time.

"Ji Li should have told you why she went to Mexico!"

"I need you to tell me!"

"Because ......"

After a pause, Chen Moran adjusted his mood.

"This is for our family, of course, but also for my career, Ji Li's actions moved me very much, and I was also reluctant to let her go!"

"Then why did you even let her go there!"

Catherine questioned the man in front of her, she had doubted the intention of this man to marry Ji Li, faintly she always felt that Chen Moran was using Ji Li, Ji Li's identity for him as a Chinese, although she did not inherit her father's title like herself, but her noble blood is unquestionable, in Britain may be bankrupt viscounts and nobles, without any influence, but in China, the blood of British nobles is taboo in the Chinese government, for him this may be the best shield.

But in the past two months, Ji Li has shown happiness, but she once had a glimmer of expectation, he loves Ji Li, but now, this man has "driven" her sister to Mexico to help him open an oil company.

"I also rejected her!"

Chen Moran's eyes darkened, his kind of rejection was not so much a refusal, but ...... "If you love Ji Li, you shouldn't let Ji Li go so far away, as her husband, you must know that Ji Li is just a little girl, in her simple mind, of course, she wants to share your worries and sorrows, but ......"

Catherine's voice was mellow and coquettish, and it seemed that she had calmed down.

The door was suddenly pushed open again, but it was Ji Li who walked in, but Yu Hongyu outside the door looked helpless, after walking into the office, Ji Li, who then closed the door, saw her sister, and threw an apologetic look at Chen Moran.

"Xianggong, I'm sorry ......"

"Ji Li, you don't need to say sorry to him!"

The younger sister's petite and lovely Chinese wife looked, but Catherine was angry, and her voice was a little louder.

"Sister!"

Her sister's anger made Ji Li not very happy.

Standing up and walking to Ji Li's side, Chen Moran looked at Ji Li, who was startled, and stroked her round face.

"Ji Li, between us, you don't need to say sorry!"

"Hmm!"

nodded obediently, and looked at Chen Moran, Ji Li's eyes flashed with cheerful looks. This scene looked in Catherine's eyes, just a breath jam, this damn cripple. After taking a deep breath and calming herself, Catherine looked at Ji Li.

"Ji Li, now that Mo Ran is here, and he has already promised, I need you to tell your husband that you are not going to Mexico!"

Hearing this, Chen Moran was stunned, when did he agree, Ji Li was also surprised, looked at her husband in surprise, and felt Ji Li's eyes, Chen Moran could only nod.

"Yes, I've promised Catherine!"

Although he was unwilling, for some reason, Chen Moran felt a sense of relief when he said this.

Her eyes flickered around her sister and husband, and Ji Li looked down at her hands again.

"Xianggong, sister...... I...... I! ”

Ji Li, who was a little stammering, looked up at Catherine, but smiled slightly.

"I really hope that I can do something for Mo Ran, and this matter is related to the future of his company, sister, maybe in your eyes I am still the little girl who can only play the piano, and even dreamed of playing in the concert hall, but you don't know, that little girl who loves to dream has grown up, and she also wants to do something extraordinary."

As she spoke, her jewel-like blue eyes sparkled, Catherine had never seen this kind of look in her sister's eyes before, and when Catherine was surprised, Ji Li turned her gaze to Chen Moran again.

"Moreover, this little girl who has grown up wants to do something for her husband! Help your husband make his career happen! It's for our happiness! ”

Ji Li's words only made Chen Moran's heart tremble, he tried his best to keep himself calm, but he couldn't calm down, and in the end he just hugged the girl who moved him tightly, no! It was the wife who moved him.
